Adventure-loving house painter Mr. Popper (Jim Carrey) contends with the problem of having too many penguins in director Mark S. Waters' adaptation of author Richard Atwater's beloved children's book. Shortly after penning a letter to a team of Arctic explorers, Mr. Popper is surprised to receive a penguin in the mail. Later, after making his mischievous new pal a cozy new home in the freezer, the hapless Mr. Popper comes into possession of a playful female penguin as well. Before long Mr. Popper finds himself surrounded by a growing family of the flightless birds, and begins training them to perform in a traveling show dubbed Popper's Performing Penguins. With each new town the show travels to, pandemonium is quick to follow. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The Age of Believing: The Disney Live-Action Classics
In the early years of Walt Disney Studios, the company was associated largely, if not exclusively, with animated entertainment. Yet, as time rolled forward -- especially into the 1960s and '70s -- this began to shift. The production entity extended its reach to live-action entertainment, especially comedies, with movies such as The Happiest Millionaire, The Boatniks, The World's Greatest Athlete, and The North Avenue Irregulars. This documentary program focuses on that shift, drawing on interviews with numerous individuals who watched it happen or were involved on some level. Participants include Tim Conway, Roy E. Disney, Michele Lee, Dean Jones, Kurt Russell, and Dick Van Dyke. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Words and Music by Jerry Herman
Jerry Herman is a singer and songwriter who rose to fame on the strength of several hit Broadway shows, launched at a time when the rise of rock and roll was leading many to doubt the future of the American musical theater. Born and raised in Jersey City, New Jersey to parents with a love of musical theater, Jerry Herman staged his first show while he was in college in 1955, and shortly after graduation he wrote music and lyrics for an off-Broadway show that ran two years. But it was 1964's blockbuster hit Hello Dolly that made Herman a big name on Broadway, and his next show, Mame, was nearly as successful. While many of Herman's subsequent shows were critical successes, they failed to enjoy the same level of success, and the film versions of both Hello Dolly and Mame failed to capture the magic of the stage versions. But Herman enjoyed a surprise comeback with 1983's La Cage Aux Folles, and today he's regarded as one of the last great figures of Broadway's golden age. Filmmaker Amber Edwards pays homage to Herman and his songs with Words and Music by Jerry Herman, a documentary which features performances of some of Herman's best known songs along with stories of his career in music. Among the interview subjects and performers are Carol Channing, Angela Lansbury, Leslie Uggams, Michael Feinstein, Charles Nelson Reilly, Fred Ebb, Marge Champion and many others. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Night
Angela Lansbury guest stars as Eleanor Duvall, the wealthy and politically powerful mother of suspected serial rapist Gabriel Duvall (Alfred Molina). The SVU team has built up a persuasive case against Gabriel, accusing him of preying upon illegal aliens who are in no position to testify against him. Using her hotshot lawyer Jason Whittaker (Bradley Cooper) as her mouthpiece, Eleanor threatens dire consequences against the detectives if they continue to "harrass" her son--and she has the clout to back up these threats. The situation becomes painfully personal when, shortly after Gabriel is released for lack of evidence, Assistant DA Novak (Diane Neal) is savagely attacked. Rita Moreno costars as a feisty immigrant-rights activist. Originally telecast May 3, 2005, "Night" is the first episode of a two-part story which concluded the same evening on the Law&Order: Special Victims Unit's "sister" series Law & Order: Trial by Jury, with that show's regulars Bebe Neuwirth, Kirk Acevedo and Fred Dalton Thompson appearing in both episodes. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Add Nanny McPhee to top of Queue
A nanny reveals ways of making children behave that are much more effective than a time-out in this fantasy comedy based on the "Nurse Matilda" books for children by Christianna Brand. Near the dawn of the twentieth century, Mr. Brown (Colin Firth) is a widower who must tend to his business as an undertaker while looking after his brood of seven children. Brown's offspring are a singularly ill-mannered lot who have managed to drive away 17 different nannies when their father arranges for one Nanny McPhee (Emma Thompson) to help out with the children. McPhee is an strange looking woman with a large nose, protruding teeth, and pock-marked skin, but it isn't long before the kids realize she has magical powers and isn't afraid to use them to help keep them in line. While the children aren't taken with McPhee's insistence on such things as saying "please" and listening to their elders, it becomes clear everyone has bigger things to worry about. Aunt Adelaide (Angela Lansbury) has insisted that if Mr. Brown cannot find a new wife within a month, she'll take custody of one of the children and cut off Brown's inheritance, and while Brown and the widow Mrs. Quickly (Celia Imrie) seem fond of one another, his ineptitude in courtship seems to insure he'll never get her to the altar. But while the Brown Children realize Nanny McPhee is a formidable opponent, she can also be a valuable ally as they learn to make use of her talents by being better children; they also discover that as they behave better, she begins to look less frightening. Emma Thompson, who played the title role in Nanny McPhee, also wrote the film's screenplay. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The Blackwater Lightship
This Hallmark Hall of Fame offering stars Keith McErlean as Declan, a 30-year-old Irishman who is dying of AIDS. Remembering how he and his sister Helen (Gina McKee) once stayed with their grandmother Dora (Angela Lansbury) during their fathers' terminal illness, Declan concludes that Dora's place would be an excellent safe harbor for his own last few months on Earth. While Dora is a lovable eccentric blessed with wicked wit and boundless acceptance of the way things are, Declan's mother Lily (Dianne Wiest) is more aloof and conservative -- and she is deeply disturbed not only by her son's imminent demise, but also by the fact that she never knew he was gay. Adding to Lily's discomfiture is Helen's decision to briefly leave her husband and children to help Declan in his declining days...not to mention the arrival of her son's colorful gay friends Paul (Sam Robards) and Larry (Bryan O'Byrne). A moving tale of love and understanding "contemporary Irish" style, The Blackwater Lightship was first telecast February 4, 2004, on CBS. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Cecil B. DeMille: American Epic
Legendary film preservationist Kevin Brownlow (infamous for his 1982 restoration of Abel Gance's Napoléon) and Patrick Stanbury co-helm the affectionate cinematic homage Cecil B. DeMille: American Epic. As narrated by Kenneth Branagh, this documentary explores the life, legacy, and cultural contributions of director extraordinaire DeMille, widely regarded as the 20th-century equivalent of P.T. Barnum -- and hence, one of the greatest showmen in modern history. The film documents how DeMille became the first individual to define the perfect cinematic admixture to satisfy the taste of the average lay viewer: a combination of unearthly sets, magnificent costumes, and earth-shaking spectacles, cloaked in an oxymoronic blend of two-dimensional moralizing and envelope-pushing sexuality -- in other words, the very same formula still employed by Hollywood, decades after DeMille's death. A number of top American filmmakers turn up to offer insights into DeMille's craft, including Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese, as well as actors including Charlton Heston and Angela Lansbury; several of DeMille's family members also shed light on the director's private life and personal relationships. The film discusses DeMille's childhood and early theatrical career, his co-establishment of Paramount Pictures, and his production of some of Hollywood's most magnificent spectacles, including Cleopatra (1934), Samson and Delilah (1949), and The Ten Commandments (1956, for which, Brownlow and Stanbury interpolate stunning behind-the-scenes footage of the parting of the Red Sea). Brownlow received the coveted Mel Novikoff Award in the year of this film's release. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Directed by Rick McKay, who traveled across five continents during the documentary's production, Broadway: The Golden Age is both a celebration of current Broadway stars and a tribute to Broadway legends past. Through a plethora of interviews and vast amounts of archival footage, McKay presents a variety of factoids, anecdotes, and memories from over 100 Broadway actors, writers, and directors. The careers of Laurette Taylor, Kim Hunter, Jessica Tandy, and Marlon Brando are all animatedly retold, as is some of the Broadway "lore of olde," such as Angela Lansbury's struggle to land a role in Mame and the shocked reaction to West Side Story on its opening night. In addition to footage and discussion regarding highly successful Broadway stars, a variety of actors recount their experiences and struggles in finding even a small amount of critical recognition. The cast includes Shirley MacLaine, Bea Arthur, Edie Adams, Alec Baldwin, and Kaye Ballard, and many others. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Broadway's Lost Treasures
Broadway's Lost Treasures is a two-hour collection of musical highlights, culled from 19 years (1967-1986) of Tony Awards telecasts by Christopher A. Cohen, son of the original telecasts' producers, Alexander H. Cohen and Hildy Parks. The program is divided into four self-explanatory segments -- "Broadway Divas," "Leading Men," "Dancin'," and "Record Breakers" -- and presented by hosts Angela Lansbury, Jerry Orbach, and Chita Rivera. Musical numbers include the "Broadway Divas": Vivian Blaine ("Adelaide's Lament" from Guys and Dolls), Patti LuPone("A New Argentina" from Evita), Angela Lansbury ("The Worst Pies in London" from Sweeney Todd), Carol Channing ("Before the Parade Passes By" from Hello Dolly), and Julie Andrews ("Send in the Clowns" from A Little Night Music).

Now for the "Dancin'": Joel Grey ("Wilkommen" from Cabaret), Tommy Tune and Twiggy ("Chasin' the Clouds Away" from My One and Only), Chita Rivera and Gwen Verdon perform "All That Jazz" and "Nowadays" from Chicago, and Jerry Orbach from 42nd Street ("Lullaby of Broadway"). Then there are the "Record Breakers": Andrea McArdle and cast ("Tomorrow" from Annie), the cast of Annie ("You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile"), and Betty Buckley and the cast of Cats) ("Jellicle Songs" and "Memory"). This also includes the bonus performances not seen on the PBS pledge-special broadcasts: Ann Miller and Mickey Rooney ("McHugh Medley" from Sugar Babies), Patti LuPone ("Buenos Aires" from Evita), Barbara Harris ("Movie Star Gorgeous" from The Apple Tree), Bonnie Franklin ("Applause" from Applause), and Dorothy Loudon and cast ("Easy Street" and "Tomorrow" (reprise) from Annie). ~ Laura Mahnken, Rovi

Murder, She Wrote: The Celtic Riddle
This fourth TV movie inspired by the classic, long-running mystery series Murder, She Wrote is also the first based on a novel, namely Lyn Hamilton's The Celtic Riddle. Angela Lansbury recreates her role as mystery writer-cum-amateur sleuth Jessica B. Fletcher, who on this occasion has journeyed to Ireland, there to attend the reading of the will of an old friend. Naturally, the bequeathing is chock-full of bizarre conditions and codicils, but the reading itself takes second place to the series of murders which follow. The police do their usual "thorough" investigation and come up with nothing, leaving it to Jessica to assemble the clues, many of which are maddeningly cryptic, and all of which are somehow linked to a huge hidden treasure. Filmed on location, Murder, She Wrote: The Celtic Riddle first aired May 9, 2003, on CBS. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Touched by an Angel: For All the Tea in China
Angela Lansbury guest stars as Lady Penelope Berrington, the proud and very haughty matriarch of a famous tea-manufacturing family. When told that he and his wife Sarah (Kate McNeil) can never have children, Lady Berrington's grandson and heir James (Brian McNamara) decides to adopt a Chinese orphan. The outraged dowager is dead set against the notion of her noble lineage being "tainted" by a non-Caucasian--at least until angel Gloria (Valerie Bertinelli) forces Lady B. to reveal an embarrassing secret about her "aristocratic" past. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Murder, She Wrote: A Story to Die For
In this feature-length follow-up to the long-running TV series Murder, She Wrote, homespun mystery novelist Jessica Fletcher (Angela Lansbury) leaves her Cabot Cove residence to attend a big-city writer's conference. As generally happens wherever Jessica shows up, a murder takes place; in this instance, the victim is a former KGB agent (Duncan Regehr) who was about to publish his tell-all memoirs. Teaming up with fellow author Warren Pierce (Richard Crenna), Jessica sets about to solve the murder -- much to the dismay of the local constabulary. Allegedly written as far back as 1998 (by Babylon 5 stalwart J. Michael Straczynski), Murder, She Wrote: A Story to Die For finally arrived on the CBS prime-time manifest on May 18, 2000. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

On Cukor

Add On Cukor to top of Queue
Film director George Cukor (1899-1983) gets the American Masters treatment in this documentary from the acclaimed PBS series. Few directors from Hollywood's Golden Age can match the list of Cukor's achievements, which included What Price Hollywood, David Copperfield, Camille, Holiday, The Philadelphia Story, The Women, A Double Life, Adam's Rib, Born Yesterday, Pat and Mike, and the 1954 version of A Star Is Born, essentially the same story as What Price Hollywood. Even after the studio system broke up, Cukor continued making films right into the 1980s, though their quality began to vary widely. He did win his first and only Oscar in 1965 for My Fair Lady, though in retrospect, that film is not in the first rank of his filmography. Cukor's reputation in Hollywood was as a ladies' director, and few filmmakers can match his track record for drawing superb performances from actresses. The film does address the subtext of that reputation, Cukor's homosexuality, which was well-known in Hollywood during his lifetime, though not openly discussed in his public interviews. It allegedly led to his dismissal from directing Gone With the Wind after star Clark Gable insisted on having him replaced. Cukor was also one of the film community's most genial hosts, his dinner parties bringing together the most glamorous denizens of Hollywood. Both critics and historians, including Jeanine Basinger, David Denby, Richard Schickel, and Peter Bogdanovich, attest to Cukor's importance in motion pictures, and several of his collaborators and friends, including Angela Lansbury, Jack Lemmon, Mia Farrow, Fay Kanin, Shelley Winters, and Claire Bloom, offer insights into his working methods. Jean Simmons narrates. ~ Tom Wiener, Rovi

Initially released to IMAX theaters at the crescendo of millennial fever and 60 years after the original Fantasia, Fantasia 2000 was meant to revitalize Walt Disney's goal of a constantly evolving film, with new segments replacing old ones with each re-release. Only The Sorcerer's Apprentice remains, with seven new shorts. Angular, abstracted butterfly-like shapes fly through the air in Beethoven's Symphony No. 5; computer-animated whales take flight in Respighi's Pines of Rome; Al Hirschfeld's caricatures of New York life come alive in George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue; Hans Christian Andersen's The Steadfast Tin Soldier is retold with computer animation against Dmitri Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No. 2, Allegro, Opus 102; frantic flamingos try to stop their yo-yoing comrade in Camille Saint-Saëns' Carnival of the Animals, Finale; Donald and Daisy Duck play Noah and his wife trying to manage the ark to Sir Edward Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance; and the cycle of life, death, and rebirth are celebrated in Stravinsky's Firebird Suite. ~ Emru Townsend, Rovi

The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax
Based on the first of Dorothy Gilman's popular novels about a senior citizen who joins the CIA, The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax stars Angela Lansbury as Emily Polifax, an elderly woman who feels out of sorts and unsure of what to do with herself after the death of her husband. Her doctor tries to cheer her up by telling her this is a perfect time to try new things and fulfill ambitions set aside earlier in life. Emily decides this is fine advice and takes a shot at the career of her dreams -- she writes a letter to her congressman asking how one goes about becoming a CIA agent. The letter is passed along and the CIA agrees to an interview. However, Emily is mistakenly sent on a mission to Morocco before anyone realizes she isn't actually an agent, and operative Jack Farrell (Thomas Ian Griffith) is sent out to keep an eye on her. When Emily and Jack are unexpectedly taken hostage, Jack discovers Mrs. Pollifax is far more clever and resourceful than anyone expected. The first in a proposed series of TV movies aimed to appeal to the large and loyal audience Lansbury attracted with the show Murder, She Wrote, The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax was produced for CBS television, which first aired it in May 1999. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Glorious Technicolor
The history of color photography in motion pictures is lovingly detailed with vibrant film clips and first-person interviews in this 60-minute cable TV special. Beginning with such experimental processes as hand-tinting each frame of film (a specialty first of Edison, then perfected by the French Pathe company) and the "Kinemacolor" technique (a cumbersome procedure requiring special high-speed projectors and two separate strips of film), the special then moves on to the swaddling days of Technicolor, with rare vignettes from such silent films as The Toll of the Sea (1922), The Black Pirate (1926), and Ben-Hur. The two-color Technicolor process gives way in 1933 to an improved three-strip format, yielding such splendiferous results as Becky Sharp (1935), The Wizard of Oz (1939), and Gone With the Wind. But because of the dictatorial policies of Technicolor consultant Natalie Kalmus (who gained control of the company in a divorce proceeding), moviemakers were forced to adhere to firmly controlled policies of how the colors could be arranged and toned, with no wiggle room for individual creativity. Fortunately, Kalmus did not wield as much power over British filmmakers like Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger who freed the Technicolor process from the shackles of conformity and corporate thinking in the 1940s, yielding such visual feasts as The Red Shoes and Black Narcissus. The special concludes with the final years of the three-strip format in the early '50s, with interviews from such Technicolorful stars as Esther Williams and Arlene Dahl. Drawing heavily from Turner's vast MGM film library, Glorious Technicolor originally aired over the Turner Classic Movies service. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

CBS: The First 50 Years
This two-hour TV entertainment special takes a surface skim (95 minutes minus commercials and promos) over the history of CBS, quickly skipping past decades of CBS radio to concentrate on CBS television from the late '40s to the present. It features more than a dozen hosts (Adam Arkin, Ed Bradley, Carol Burnett, David Copperfield, Roma Downey, Fran Drescher, Don Johnson, Angela Lansbury, David Letterman, Cheech Marin, Mary Tyler Moore, Dan Rather, Della Reese, Ray Romano, Jane Seymour) introducing a parade of primetime clips covering a variety of shows, events, and people -- Ed Sullivan, The Carol Burnette Show, 60 Minutes (Mike Wallace interviewing Barbra Streisand), Gunsmoke, The Honeymooners, Edward R. Murrow (his oft-seen editorial on Joe McCarthy), I Love Lucy, The Twilight Zone, The Waltons, Dan Rather reporting from Vietnam, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Green Acres, Dallas, Petticoat Junction, The Beverly Hillbillies, M*A*S*H, The Andy Griffith Show, Murphy Brown, the JFK assassination, and more -- with reminiscences from Tom and Dick Smothers, David Letterman (on Ed Sullivan), Larry Hagman (on "Who shot J.R.?"), Alan Alda, Ron Howard, Walter Cronkite, and others. At 95 minutes, these nostalgic nods, truncated tributes, and familiar faces might leave many viewers yearning for an archeological dig through the little-seen rarities and antiquities buried in the Museum of Television & Radio collection while waiting for the major networks to cover broadcasting history in depth. Premiered May 20, 1998 on CBS. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Murder, She Wrote: South by Southwest
Three years after the cancellation of her popular series Murder She Wrote, Angela Lansbury returns for the first of several TV-movie followups to that selfsame series. Once again, Lansbury is cast as Jessica Fletcher, best-selling mystery writer and amateur sleuth. As indicated by the film's title, Hitchcock references abound in the plotline, beginning when a lady vanishes on the train that Jessica is taking to El Paso to deliver a lecture. Helpful Jessica accepts a message for the mystery woman, whereupon she is attacked by an assailant in search of "it." Our heroine is rescued by a journalist who may not be a journalist, then when attempting to ascertain the missing woman's whereabouts Jessica is warned to mind her own business by a guy identifying himself as an FBI agent. Inasmuch as such warnings have never stopped Jessica in the past, she follows the trail of clues to the desert town of Agua Verde, Arizona, adopting a few aliases alng the way. The climax is an echo of Hitch's The 39 Steps, wherein Jessica not only solves the mystery but also unmasks the Least Likely Suspect (or in this case, Least Likely Suspects). Produced and directed by Angela Lansbury's sons, Murder She Wrote: South by Southwest first aired November 2, 1997 on CBS. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The first feature from the 20th Century-Fox animation unit in Phoenix, Arizona, this is the ninth film produced and directed by the Don Bluth/Gary Goldman duo (An American Tail) and the first animated feature to be made in CinemaScope since Disney's Sleeping Beauty (1959). This $50 million animated fantasy retells the story of Anastasia, daughter of Czar Nicholas, beginning with her childhood in 1916 Russia. After Rasputin's curse on the Romanovs, little Anastasia is separated from her grandmother, the Dowager Empress Maria. After growing up in an orphanage, Anastasia emerges as a young woman called Anya. With no clear memory of her youth, Anya encounters entrepreneurs who seek an Anastasia look-alike in hopes of collecting a reward in Paris from the aged Dowager Empress. Despite demonic interference from Rasputin, the three travel to Paris where another problem awaits: the Dowager Empress is now skeptical of the parade of imposters. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Angela Lansbury shows off her gifts as a singer and dancer in this holiday-themed made-for-TV musical. Near the turn of the century, Stanta Claus (Charles Durning) is busy getting ready for his annual toy delivery -- in fact, he's so busy he hasn't had much time for his wife, Mrs. Claus (Angela Lansbury), and his spouse has developed a case of cabin fever. Determined to get away and have some some fun on her own, Mrs. Claus hitches up the reindeer and takes them out for a quick spin around the world; however, she has reindeer trouble over New York City, and is forced to make an emergency landing. Stuck in New York for a week as her deer heal, Mrs. Claus's desire to help others quickly comes into play when she befriends a handful of children working in a sweatshop, as well as a group of women who've embraced the cause of sufferage for all.

Over the protests of star Angela Lansbury, not to mention the series' millions of loyal fans, Murder, She Wrote was moved from its familiar Sunday-night time slot to a new Thursday berth for the series' 12th season. Lansbury's fears that the venerable detective drama would wither and die opposite NBC's league-leading Friends unfortunately proved to be right on the money, and season 12 turned out to be season last. Even so, Murder, She Wrote sustains the high quality that had distinguished its previous 11 seasons, serving up a variety of baffling murder mysteries for crime novelist Jessica Fletcher (Angela Lansbury) to solve, and a vast array of prominent guest stars to commit those murders or end up as victims. The terminal season's best episodes include "Murder Among Friends," a wicked stab at the series' competition in which a killing occurs on the set of a very familiar-looking sitcom titled "Buds"; and the last episode, "Death by Demographics," wherein CBS' pronouncement that Murder, She Wrote was "skewing too old" for its favored younger viewers is raked over the coals in a story involving the murder of a radio station manager who fires all of his over-40 staff members! ~ Rovi

Just as tireless and diligent at writing novels and solving murders as she'd been in season one, Jessica Fletcher (Angela Lansbury) embarks upon her 11th season of Murder, She Wrote. This year's adventures take Jessica to Amsterdam, Hawaii, Miami, the Sonoma Valley, and Ireland -- but no matter where she goes, a murder is sure to follow, usually committed upon or committed by one of the series' glittering array of celebrity guest stars. Season eleven's crop of big names includes Theodore Bikel, Nina Foch, John Astin, and Robert Foxworth, among others. Though it seemed at the time that Murder, She Wrote would run forever, such was not to be. In an incredibly obtuse move, parent network CBS decided at the end of season 11 to move the series from its familiar Sunday-night time slot to a new Thursday berth -- opposite NBC's ratings magnet Friends. ~ Rovi

A look back at some classic Rpg Maker games
- Tau
What is Looking Back? A series of articles talking about those classic Rpg Maker games from the past.
Created by: Teo Mathlein.
Made With: Rpg Maker 2000
Download: Here
What is art? Is it that perfect painting? Is it a touching song? One thing that's for sure, is that Sunset Over Imdahl is one of the few rpg maker games that can claim itself to be. The graphics and story show tremendous skill, solidifying it as one of the best rpg maker games that will ever be made. To this very day still one of my favorite overall games.
It starts out when the city of Imdahl has been under siege for over 8 months. A little 13-year old boy wanders the deserted streets of the city after tending for his now deceased mother for several days. The siege has stopped after all inhabitants of the city, except this little boy, have been killed by the plague. Struck with grief, this kid wants to do everything he can in order to settle this. A mysterious man sends him back in time in order to prevent the plague from spreading in the city. This is the start of a hectic search for the plague-carrier, which takes place through all four seasons, hopping back and forth through time
This game has a unique look, to say the least. All backgrounds have been drawn by hand, while the characters are edited/used Chrono Trigger sprites. There's nothing to worry about, though, as both blend in perfectly and give the game that extra edge. The graphics truly add to the atmosphere of the game and keeps you captivated from the very beginning to end.
The music greatly adds to the atmosphere of the game as well. It might not be composed just for the game, but you wouldn't think it. The music is from Vivaldi' four seasons. A song for each season you visit creating a different yet familiar feel, the optimism of spring to the happiness of summer. The sadness of autumn and finally the desolation of winter. The sound effects are also well placed through out to help capture each seasons splendor.
The gameplay in Sunset Over Imdahl is just as simple as the story. It's an RPG, yeah, but it doesn't revolve around leveling up, fighting and all the rest. You run around, solving puzzles and there are a few mini-games scattered throughout the story, a couple twitch-based, one focused on hand-eye-coordination and one a button-masher. Overall, though, they're simply diversions from the main draw of the game.. the art. But while the gameplay is limited, it's just fun to explore the city in each season and look at those beautiful screens. Really, really eye-catching, the rain in autumn for example, I just loved those little details.
It doesn't happen often, but now and then there's a game that you could just frame and hang up on a wall. Sunset Over Imdahl is such a game. Sunset Over Imdahl is an example of how, with even the most limited resources, an individual can still tell their story with such artistry that it leaves an indelible imprint on the player's memory.
(One of Legacy001 side projects that showed much promise)
The main hero of the game is a girl named Roselle. After an unsuccessful attempt to save her loved ones from a group of enemies, she is captured and imprisoned. As the only survivor of the tragedy, she then suffers to live on by herself in the dark cell where she was contained. 7 grueling years pass and a mysterious man offers her a chance. A chance to reverse time itself and remove the dreadful experience and change her past.
One of the most visually inspiring games ever to come from the community. Nice job! I'm loving these articles, lol.
About Sunset Over Imdhal, loved it, the graphics, so fresh and atmospheric, also one of the most unbearably heartbreaking story, one of the most strongly catching aspects of the game.
author=UPRCWhat are you waiting for?
I never finished playing it, but I wish that I had.
A game with hand drawn maps is one of the things on my to-do list. Seeing this has made me want to do it even more.

I have a short attention span when I play RPG Maker games. :(
I loved Sunset Over Imdahl; it was easy, with great plot, nice graphic, and the touch of Vivaldi completed the game, you can say though that I spotted few anachronism goofs.
I wish that they would turn it into a movie.
I wish that they would turn it into a movie.
Interesting coincidence here. Considering this is one of two games that inspired my own projects (the other is Wilfred the Hero). Sunset over Imdahl actually made hand-drawn graphics the thing in the community for a while.

Beverly, MA -- What happens when design, brand and experience merge to create environments that stretch our expectations of each of these creative platforms? Join us at the Walter J. Manninen Center for the Arts at Endicott College as Eileen Jones, a Design Principal with Perkins + Will, explores the convergent paths of design that tell stories and elicit emotional responses to physical environments, in an installation entitled Design, Brand and Experience: From Culture to Form. This exhibition will be in the Heftler Visiting Artist Gallery, Manninen Center for the Arts, Endicott College, 376 Hale Street, Beverly now through June 14, 2013. Gallery hours are Monday – Thursday, 9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.; Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.; and Saturday and Sunday 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. The reception will be on Thursday, April 18, from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. and the lecture presentation with Eileen Jones will take place from 7:00 – 8:00 p.m. in the Rose Performance Hall. All are free and open to the public. Where design is foundational, brand attributes and benefits are made tangible, and technology enhances and heightens the response to spatial awareness and interactions. The resultant Branded Environment thinking engages process, research, patterning, strategy, and the use of 2-D and 3-D interaction design. As stated by Eileen Jones, the designer of this installation and the Branded Environments Global Leader at Perkins + Will, "For almost 30 years, we've been creating experiences and expressions of the Antron® brand in print, web and 3-dimentional environments. This exploration has resulted in environments that capture the spirit of an abstract product – a fiber, used to make yarn, which in turn is used to make carpet. The best way to explore this product is to tell its story of inspiration, characteristics, benefits and attributes, and to craft an experience that celebrates each of these." Jones continues, "This exhibit, at Endicott College, captures the spirit of the Antron® brand. Fiber shapes the space and the experience you have with the brand. Ever-changing colored light speaks to the way in which the fiber accepts color and can be transformed by a designer's creativity. A performance venue captured within the fiber speaks to the fibers inherent performance characteristics and capabilities. The continuous band of images enclosing the exhibit identifies the transformative nature this product has on any environment. This exhibition is sponsored by the following: Eileen Jones, LEED AP ID+C, Perkins + Will, Chicago; Perkins + Will, Boston; Endicott College; Antron® Fiber; Kimball Office, Boston; Red Thread; John Fuller, Mitchell Fuller, LLC; James Kusar, N'dio, Inc.; and the Bruce T. Halle Family Foundation.
Endicott College offers a Bachelor of Science and Master of Arts and Master of Fine Arts for students seeking professional practice in the design of interior architectural environments. The Department's goal is to provide students with the problem-solving abilities and creative design skills to achieve success as the next generation of interior design professionals.
If you have any questions regarding, Design, Brand and Experience: From Culture to Form, an Installation designed by Perkins + Will or any of the programming related to this exhibition, please contact Kathleen Moore at 978-232-2655 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Freshman Devin Thomas had a season-high 25 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks to help Wake Forest upset No. 18 North Carolina State 86-84 on Tuesday night.
Travis McKie added 16 points for the Demon Deacons (10-8, 3-3 Atlantic Coast Conference), including two free throws with 3.4 seconds left that helped Wake Forest hold on down the stretch in a wild final 4 1/2
N.C. State led by 16 points in the first half and 12 at halftime only to see the Demon Deacons rally and push ahead to their own 10-point lead.
Then N.C. State (15-4, 4-2) managed its own comeback, closing the gap to a point with about a minute left. But ultimately, Wake Forest - a team filled with freshmen - did just enough to earn a win that sent their fans storming the court to celebrate.
Wake Forest shot 59 percent after halftime.

I am wondering if there are many out there who have been at this for a while and are not seeing results. Is it possible to eat two much fat or not drink enough water or not sleep enough to hold on to pounds of body fat. These small factors in a logical mind could not possibly cause someone to hold on to ten plus pounds of unwanted fat. I know it feels great, but continuing to gain weight, adding cellulite and not being able to shake it seems to be the trend for many women and some men. Can longterm ers please comment on what point in time if ever did they start to lose and become as thin as the poster children of this diet. I am not trying to stir anything up, would really appreciate some truth, as I see many struggling.

Really? I think people with an ED exactly need to hear this! I know that my ED caused me to lose a lot of muscle/strength... which I'm still trying to get back.... besides when you shift your focus to strength and muscle (while being adequately carbed up), suddenly "weight" doesn't matter anymore. It all becomes about how many handstands you can do, how long you can stay in a yoga posture, how far/fast you can run, etc.....
I have to post this! Every single diet works for someone, If you haven't noticed.. Everybody is unique. Inside our body of course, Is the same... Hmm.. Where am I going with this... I have found I LOVE High carb lifestyle, But I can't do the raw thing. I have the exact same great results from eating Low fat cooked vegan! I've only done it for like a week, And no bad side effects! If it's healthy for your body, and lifestyle.. You'll see results. You'll just feel right. (: I am probably gonna get kicked off for this..... Google "McDougall Program for maximum weight loss" It's a lot like this, Just cooked. Latterr (;
i believe that there is one diet for us we are just in different degenerate stages of health
Every single diet works for someone...
No, they don't. Paleo works for no one. Just as one example. Some people think that weight loss or other visuals are the sole condition of whether something 'works' or not, but this is laughably ignorant. In terms of health - actual, holistic health, the only way to go is in-line with our biology, and this means high carb, low fat, low protein, no animal products. That is the diet that works, for holistic health. Cooked is fine, in a bind, raw is far more optimal.
I have the exact same great results from eating Low fat cooked vegan! I've only done it for like a week, And no bad side effects!
I'm sorry, but one week is not long enough to hand in your verdict on any lifestyle.
I think many of us struggle for a few key reasons. First, many of us come from a calories restriction background. After a lifetime of starving the body, it isn't going to shed the pounds lickity-split. Second, many of us are not 100%. We may eat cooked vegan foods, sodium, fat or don't eat enough. Third, successful LFHC vegans are extremely active. This is just from my casual observations of this board. I am on my fourth month HCLF and my clothes are snugger but I don't care. My skin is looking amazing, my PMS and period pain are less each month, I don't require deoderant anymore... I am slowly eating more fruit, less cooked carbs, sleeping like a champ, getting more exercise and could not be happier. Get over the weight gain and focus on the benefits! If you worry about it the body will never let it go.
your not struggling if you go from underweight to normal weight
too true eventhorizon! btw, awesome name!!! :D
It really isn't rocket science, if you aren't losing weight after a year, you are eating too much. Many people who are overweight have very slow metabolisms anyway. Calorie estimations are just that: Estimations. Not accurate. Even by the standard recommendations for calorie intakes, they are based on generalisations that assume certain height, weight, age, gender, protein intake, activity levels etc. Even when calculations are used to estimate requirements more specifically, accounting for the aforementioned parameters, there is still a variance by upto a few hundred calories either way. The whole point of RDAs and RNIs is that they will be sufficient for most people, but not all.
The calorie estimations used here are even less accurate than that, because firstly there was no mathematical calculation based on scientific observations, and secondly this is a new diet to the modern world. It is a different kind of diet, based on lower protein intakes with unusual amino acid profiles, it is much higher in fibre, water and micronutrients, as well as simple carbohydrates than people are used to. And there is no recorded history to date of people having done this diet before long term. So we are pretty much trying to use what is possible to guestimate based on personal experiences. Until there are more people who eat this way long term documenting their own experiences of how they managed to make it work for them, and until someone gets enough interest to do some clinical and epidemiological research on the diet, we can't hope for exact accuracy, that would just be unreasonable and irrational.
The 2500 calorie per day for male/3000 calorie per day for females accounts for the fact that people (on average) seem to struggle with eating enough initially to maintain weight, not to lose it, because of the lower protein intake. And many people also struggled to feel satiated on lower calorie intakes, because of the lower protein. It is well documented that there is a relationship between protein and energy intake (the P:E ratio) And that the more protein people eat, the less calories they need to maintain weight, whilst the less protein people eat, the more calories people tend to need. And that specifically, it is carbohydrate calories that play the major determining role to lower protein intakes, since they have a sparing effect, reducing the breakdown of muscle protein for energy.
But it cannot and will not be adequate for everyone: No estimation can be, even with the very best use of mathematics, science and research, which. So especially when that is lacking at present (for obvious, understandable and excusable reasons), estimations will be unreliable for everyone.
If people are struggling to maintain a healthy weight therefore, and want to make this diet work for them, then they need to get smarter and start using more common sense, and more curiosity about nutrition and physiology, to work out what might be going on. If you ain't losing weight, you need less calories. If you don't feel satisfied on less calories, you need more protein. How do you do that on a low protein diet? Through higher protein fruits (use cronometer or nutritiondata.com to find out which these are), higher protein greens (use cronometer to find out which these are) and small amounts of nuts and seeds.And they need to do more weight training to improve their metabolic functioning, as well as making sure to get enough sleep and relaxation, in order to reduce their levels of catabolic hormone production (which increase protein requirements).
The reality is that most people are here not just because they want to lose weight. There are plenty of fad starvation diets, dieticians and government healthy eating guidelines if people just want to lose weight. Most people are here because they like the idea of eating a natural, simple diet, which is high in micronutrient density, and is a conscientious choice for animals, the environment and our relationship with the planet.And because they are curious about trying something different.
So there is a basic assumption that if people are here, and they are trying to stick with a raw diet after a year of poor results, then they have to be commited to more than just weight loss. They must surely be here because something about the diet works for them and they like it. So if they want to make it work, then they need to get more curious about what they need to do to make it work.
If people still find it hard to lose weight when they experiment with lower calorie intakes, and/or cannot find a way to feel satiated, then they would do well to consult with someone who can help them to explore more personalised reasons for what might be going on: Eg. genetic polymorphisms, poor phase1:phase 2 liver detoxification balance, heavy metal toxicity, food sensitivities, hormone imbalances, chronic nutritional deficiencies. But most people will be able to get good results just with simple dietary adjustments to their current approach to eating a raw diet.
Take care

I like it. Losing weight is not everything.
She has not been doing the lifestyle for a year. Her previous posts point this out, and it has been stated in this discussion.
You know we don't advocate for caloric restriction here on 30bad.
The simple fact is: Eat more to live more. I've been living this way for two years and I haven't gained a pound because of eating too much fruit. There are often other lifestyle factors that come into play.
I went 40 days without a bowel movement back in December due to extreme stress and gained around 10lbs. If I were to then blame it on the fruit, I'd be doing the same as Allison - Giving a half assed go at the lifestyle and then claiming that it doesn't work for fitness and weight loss.

Thanks to Eric for sending me this link on race radio at the Tour de France. Not what you would expect to see… somebody actually did study the difference between races with & without race radio. And with a different outcome than many would think.
I'm not certain 1991-1996 vs 2001-2005 TdF stages are otherwise-equal; you're comparing pre-Lance to Lance days, and regardless of what you think of Lance himself, Bruyneel brought a different style of racing to the Peloton, that of everyone dying for the King. At least it's my perception, possibly wrong, that pre-Lance it was more likely your GC guy didn't have the entire team at his disposal, but rather you'd have your separate sprinters & breakaway guys… something not possible with a classic Lance/Bruyneel team.
Read & discuss. Interested to hear what others think.

Hello All. I hope there is someone out there who can provide a little assistance with a major overclocking problem I am having. I have read both guides by Raja, motherboard manual from front to back, and watched numerous you tube videos looking for an answer.
My problem is that the overclock settings from my BIOS are not showing up in Windows 7 under the system properties and Windows shows my processor being at its default speed of 3.2GHZ. So I read that thats a normal issue with Win 7. So I try CPU-Z and OCCT and they both show that my CPU is only using a x12 multiplier and that its overclocked at a NEGATIVE 62.5%, which is 1.2GHZ. I have tried changing as many settings in the BIOS as possible. I have tried disabling the following settings: Intel Speedstep, Turbo Mode, and C1E. I have tried the default OC profiles, like Normal OC, Gamers OC, etc. Those dont make a difference either.
When the computer POSTS it shows Intel i7 3200mhz (Target: 4700mhz)
Can someone please help?
I willing to paypal someone for their time in helping me get this issue resolved and possibly perfect a system overclock for myself.

Competition Narrative Features
An Ordinary Family
Family reunion has long been a favorite topic for filmmakers because it allows for conflict, humor, and the heartening possibility that hurts might be healed and insults forgiven. In this bittersweet, funny, and moving variation on that theme, director Mike Akel (Chalk, FFF 2006 Special Jury Award winner) has created a world where love, faith, and reason are brought together with such gentleness that it still seems possible to believe that America is a nation of tolerance and forgiveness. At a lake cabin, the Biederman family gathers for a summer reunion that prompts plenty of revelations, mostly centered around two brothers in conflict: one is a devoted Christian minister; the other is gay and has brought his partner to the gathering. Leading a first-rate ensemble cast, Akel allows the story to progress with a light and steady touch, forcing nothing but revealing all. While little is ordinary about this family, the film gives each member a turn at proving the title a wish as much as a description.
Director Bio:
Mike Akel's (An Ordinary Family) first feature film Butchers 15 starred Chris Mass (Chalk) and Tony Hale (Arrested Development). Mike's second feature Chalk was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award, aired on the Sundance Channel, and was released theatrically nationwide. Mike teaches filmmaking at Kinkaid in Houston, where he lives with his wife Kim.

TVA Seeks Public Comment on Environmental Assessment For Kingston Recreation Proposal
August 19, 2011
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. The Tennessee Valley Authority seeks public comment on a draft report that looks at possible environmental impacts of adding recreation areas near the Kingston Fossil Plant in Roane County, Tenn.
The proposed project would convert residential land purchased by TVA after the Kingston ash spill in 2008 into a public use recreation area to help restore and enhance the Swan Pond community near the plant. Potential uses for the approximately 90 acres include a combination of ball fields, walking trails, green space, wetlands restoration and water access.

No butterfly lover should be without this plant in their garden! Perennial to USDA zone 3, Asclepia tuberosa is a shrub-like plant that is native to the eastern United States and Mexico. The 24" tall plants produce a profusion of vivid red-orange flowers that attract majestic Monarchs and other colorful butterflies. It is also a host plant, providing a place for them to lay their eggs and food for hungry caterpillars, allowing you to observe the full life cycle of the butterfly. It makes a wonderful cut flower and does not have the milky sap typical of other milkweeds. Its decorative green seedpods can be saved for dried arrangements. It prefers full sun, but tolerates light shade and does best in well-drained, sandy soil. Drought-tolerant when established.
When to plant outside: Spring, after all danger of frost has passed and up to 8 weeks before the first fall frost.
When to start inside: 6-8 weeks before average last spring frost.

"Unlisted" Impressions
Last Thursday, my wife and I attended a viewing of Dr. Delaney Ruston's documentary film Unlisted followed by a panel discussion. The film and panel discussion focused primarily on schizophrenia, but individuals with bipolar disorder and their families face similar struggles.
I was very impressed by the keynote speaker, Dr. Alan Breier, MD, who passionately and compassionately described the struggles of people living with schizophrenia. He called schizophrenia the "quintessential human experience," because it affects the two qualities most responsible for making a person feel human:
- The ability to work
- The ability to love

Clouds of "Parasols" In space, as shown in this artist's conception of a sunshade, might slow the warming of our world.
Image: Kevin Hand
In Brief
- Many scientists now support serious research into "geoengineering," deliberate actions taken to slow or reverse global warming.
- Of the various geoengineering proposals, the ones that shade the earth from the sun could bring about the most immediate effects. But all of them have drawbacks and side effects that probably cannot be anticipated.
- Pumping sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere, as volcanoes do, is the most well established way to block the sun. Other proposals call for brightening clouds over the oceans by lofting sea salt into the atmosphere and building a sunscreen in space.
When David W. Keith, a physicist and energy expert at the University of Calgary in Alberta, gives lectures these days on geoengineering, he likes to point out how old the idea is. People have been talking about deliberately altering climate to counter global warming, he says, for as long as they have been worrying about global warming itself. As early as 1965, when Al Gore was a freshman in college, a panel of distinguished environmental scientists warned President Lyndon B. Johnson that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels might cause "marked changes in climate" that "could be deleterious." Yet the scientists did not so much as mention the possibility of reducing emissions. Instead they considered one idea: "spreading very small reflective particles" over about five million square miles of ocean, so as to bounce about 1 percent more sunlight back to space—"a wacky geoengineering solution," Keith says, "that doesn't even work."
In the decades since, geoengineering ideas never died, but they did get pushed to the fringe—they were widely perceived by scientists and environmentalists alike as silly and even immoral attempts to avoid addressing the root of the problem of global warming. Three recent developments have brought them back into the mainstream.

Paige Heinrich and her friend Gus may not be old enough to vote in Tuesday's election, but that doesn't mean these Wausau East high schoolers can't encourage others to do so.
"And just see where they are with who they're going to be voting for and telling them where their polling location is and giving them information they need if they're not registered," said Heinrich, 17, as she walks from house to house in Kronenwetter.
She and other Obama volunteers are out Sunday afternoon, knocking on what they call, targeted homes. Those are people who usually vote democratic, but don't always head to the polls.
"For three months I've been doing that a couple hours every night, making phone calls, entering data, talking to people, organizing everything, making posters," Heinrich said.
Meanwhile, Republicans are busy doing the same. Their volunteers are also getting out the vote Sunday evening, speaking with registered voters who lean conservative.
John Gentzel, the spokesman for the Duffy campaign, says phone banking and talking to people in person is the party's number one priority leading up to the election.
"It's critical that everyone gets out to vote Tuesday," Gentzel said.
