Hang tight!
Recipe by OODLES_OR
"This is a delicious, moist, feel-good cake."
Watch video tips and tricks
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 (29 ounce) can peaches, drained and mashed
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup butter, softened
3 cups white sugar
6 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
this cake was very moist but no matter how much you spray and sprinkle the pan with sugar it still came out of the pan in pieces. Very good cake pieces though
Since the only other review mentioned how the cake stuck to the pans, I used parchment paper in mine. The loaves slid right out! After 65 minutes of baking the centers seemed to be still liquidy so I turned off the oven and left them in for about another hour. I used a quart of home canned spiced peaches instead of commerical peaches. I always sprinkle Turbinado sugar on top of sweet baked goods and I did with this too. When baking, after 35 minutes, the tops seemed to be getting too brown so I covered with foil. Upon first taste, it tasted like plain pound cake and it was very moist. We'll see how it is after it cools completely and sits for a day. Thanks!

Made this for a recent party and this recipe was wayyyyy too much which went in the favor of my co workers because I made 1 bundt pan and 1 loaf pan. I only got great compliments. I had to restrain myself for eating too much. Delicious and moist. I ran out of sour cream so I used plain greek yogurt and it worked just as well. Making this again tomorrow for Thanksgiving but 1/2 the recipe will be plenty. A must make!
It's very nice cake I made it it was amazing everyone like it

This time I went to the USA for a roundtrip of 3 weeks with friends. I booked on a promotion fare with LH BRU – SFO – PHX via FRA and return SFO – BRU also via FRA. Flights to and from SFO where with the A380.
Flight: LH1025
Date: 30/04/2012
Type: Boeing 737-300 D-ABXS
Route: Brussels – Frankfurt
Flighttime: 40 minutes
Loadfactor: 60%
A rather short flight so also a short report for this. Flight departed ontime and everything went on without a problem. Service started shortly after take-off. Everyone received a candybar with a warm and/or cold drink served. Small but enjoyable.
We landed on the on the newest runway in FRA, 25R. Wich is pretty far for the taxi. The pilot had the same toughts I guess because he braked like hell to get a shorter exit.
FRA Airport
We arrived at a remotestand, deboarding by bus and a nice drive to the terminal. Always interesting to drive around in FRA, with all those wide-bodys standing there in the morning.
When entering the building the flights weren't yet on the screens so we didn't had the exact gate for our next flight to SFO. But no problem, we needed to be in the C-terminal so we began our walk to screening and bordercontrole. We arrived at the screening wich wasn't that crowded so it went rather quickly also border control was fast and we continued to the gate. That one was really crowded, so a completely full flight would follow. Gate area was quite nice and after a 30 minutes waiting boarding started. The boardingpass is read by a scanner, doors automaticly opens and you can enter. There are 3 entries for the A380, 1 for the upperdeck, 1 for the first rows in Y and 1 for the last rows in Y. Everything went very smoothly and we where seated really fast.
Flight: LH454
Date: 30/04/2012
Type: Airbus A380-800
Route: Frankfurt – San Francisco FRA – SFO
Flighttime: 11 hours
Loadfactor: around 100%
We where seated in a exitrow so legroom we had more then enough. Pushback ontime and then a short taxi to runway 25C and a direct take off towards SFO. All this is perfectly visible on the cameras mounted in the aircraft. You have 1 tailcamera, 1 nosewheelcamera and 1 camera that looks down. Nice feature to follow everything outside. We climbed to the North heading to AMS, Scotland, Iceland, Greenland, Canada and back South again towards SFO.
What me surprised is that you don't hear or feel a lot in the A380, very comfortable aircraft to fly with.
On cruising altitude service began.
They started with drinks and biscuits. You could choose between a soda-drink or something stronger like Gin or Wodka even champagne was available. After that the foodservice began and we could choose between a pasta or a chickenmeal. Again drinks where served and now you could have also red or white wine with it. I took the paste with a soda and a red wine wich was very delicious even as the meal itself, very tasty. A second time they came by with the wine. First service was perfect and after service they came with a digistiefke, Cognac or Bailys was the choice or coffee. So time to relax and explore the IFE.
IFE was very good, nice films, a good choice of music and musicvideo's. You had no time to get bored on the flight.
Flight went on, nothing happened not even turbulence so perfect for me.
When we had around 1,5 – 2 hours to go they started again with a service. Same as the first one, all drinks where available and again you could choice between pasta or chicken. This time I took the chicken wich was also very nice. Second service also perfect.
Time to start our landing at SFO, also visible on the screens thanks to the cameras. Landing on 28R and a slow taxi to our gate. Deboarding went rather fast and there we went.
SFO Airport
We arrived at the bordercontrole, together with us a SQ flight. So quite a lot of people where waiting to pass the border. I think we waited around 1 hour before it was our turn. Wich wasn't a problem because we had to wait around 5 hours for our next flight to PHX. This was the second time I flew to SFO and I knew the TSA people are very friendly there, they even can smile. So this time same as before. With a little chat and a smile my papers where checked and the last part of our flyingtrip could began. We took our baggage of the belt, past customs without a problem and of we went towards the US Airways check in. Since we already had our boardingpass we only needed to put our baggage on the belt and waiting could began.
All this took around 2 hours so we still had plenty of time.
Heading for our last flight we past screening again. Wich was done by the newest type of scanners. Fast and effective. To the gate area we went and waited for our flight to PHX
Flight: US408
Date: 30/04/2012
Type: A320 N675UW
Route: San Francisco – Phoenix SFO – PHX
Flighttime: 1h45
Loadfactor: 50%
First time with US, so I didn't know what to expect.
Boarding went fast since it wasn't a full flight, push back and taxi to 28L began. After take off we made a 180° turn so I had a perfect view of SFO airport. Flight went on but with a little bit of "chop" like the American pilots like to call it.
A service began and I didn't know if we had to pay or not for our drinks. But I saw quickly that it was for free and I took again a soda drink. The last domestic flight in the US I flew with the old UA and nothing was for free so thereby I was wondering if it was for free or not.
We past some nice scenery on our why to PHX, we even past Victorville storage field.
Landing in PHX was smooth and warm. We took our baggage, went to the car rental and the trip could start.
After 3 weeks our trip was over and time to go back home. This time it where only 2 flights SFO – FRA and FRA – BRU.
Flight: LH455
Date: 21/05/2012
Type: A380-800 D-AIMG
Route: San Francisco – Frankfurt SFO – FRA
Flighttime: around 10 hours
Loadfactor: 100%
After a little struggle at check in, because 23kg is not 24kg and bordercontrole we went to the gate area. Again a lot of people for our flight back. Same system for boarding as in FRA, 3 entrys into the plane wich makes it easy for everyone. This time I was seated in a normal seat. I must say, it was very comfortable. Even when the person in front of me reclined his seat I had enough space and I'm 191cm.
Again everything was visible via the camera system and of we went via 28R towards FRA.
Service was the same as on the previous flight, drinks with pasta or chicken and the after service wich was more than OK for me.
Flight went on and after we experienced some turbulence everything went calm again.
Just like on the previous flight, 1,5 – 2 hours before landing they started to serve our breakfast. Wich was a omelette wich tomatoe and coffee, again very tasty.
Landing in FRA was on 07R and a short taxi to the gate. Deboarding and up to our final flight back to BRU.
FRA Airport again
This time we needed to go to the B-terminal wich is a good walk from the C-terminal where we arrived. So up and away again. We past bordercontrole pretty fast and then to the last screening where it was very crowded. After 30 minutes we where past it and up to the gate for our flight.
Flight: LH1012
Date: 22/05/2012
Type: 737-300 D-ABEC
Route: Frankfurt – Brussel FRA – BRU
Flighttime: 40 minutes
Loadfactor: 50%
Again a short flight back home. Departure on runway 18 and then left turn towards BRU. Service was the same as before, a candybar and the choice between soda drinks, beer or coffee.
We arrived in BRU perfectly on time.
All in all:
Legroom: perfect for me, don't know what it is in a 747 or A330/340 but for the A380 I was happy with it.
Service: more then perfect, tasty, good choice for drinks.
IFE: also good indeed
Again with LH?: ofcourse, it was the best longhaul flight that I did the past few months, it was even better then QR for me. And I will recommend them to to other persons.
A380: perfect aircraft, you don't have the feeling that you are packed in Y. Smooth and silent it is
Next flight, TG to BKK and HKT

The best ice cream parlour at the moment in São Paulo, you gotta try by yourself this very fresh italian style ice cream, for a good price and great range of flavours. Personally I recommend 'tiramisu' flavour for those who love this dessert.
The best ice cream parlour at the moment in São Paulo, you gotta try by yourself this very fresh italian style ice cream, for a good price and great range of flavours. Personally I recommend 'tiramisu' flavour for those who love this dessert.
This Italian gelato/ice cream is wonderful. It is so smooth and creamy I loved it. They have manyyy varieties of chocolate, along with fruit flavors and other unique options such as tiramisu and coffee. The prices were reasonable and I would recommend it to anyone who likes ice cream!!
If you are looking for an Italian ice cream in Sao Paulo, Bacio di Latte will be definitely the best option... All flavours are delicious!!!
We decided to try some local ice cream flavors in Sao Paulo. The doce de leite and chocolate banana were delicious and unique. The shop is comfortable and in a great neighborhood. We saw the staff making fresh gelato in the windowed room. We highly recommend checking this place out if you are nearby.
One of the best ice cream i've tried in brazil! Fave flave? doce de leite of course! Lack of space inside (due to the crowd!)/outside (sitting almost on the sidewalk)
One of the best in São Paulo. My favourite flavors are pistacchio and the darkest chocolate available!
Already, reviews saying "best ice cream in SP" is quite a statement. And ranked #1 in restaurants in the entire city of 3,000+ reviews on Tripadvisor? Not to mention it's "just" a coffee and ice cream place? INSANITY. And COMPLETELY deserved IMO. I guess I got lucky, because I walked down the block from my hotel one day, and popped... More
Don´t let the long lines scare you. They move fast. And it´s totally worthwhile . For me it´s the best ice cream in Sao Paulo. They have 3 or 4 chocolate flavours and they are amazing. There is also one flavour called Baccio di Latte which is made with milk and condensed milk that it´s very nice. Pitstacchio is also... More
Well, what I can tell about this place is that -- a good PR works. The place is always crowded, everybody wants to try their good (far away from outstanding) ice creams just because all the magazines and newspapers say it is the best in town. The ice cream is really good but when you put on paper how good... More
If you like ice cream, then you must visit Bacio di Latte. It is definitely ice cream taken to a whole new level. The only annoyance is that their ice creams are all tagged in Italian and there is no description of what they are. However, if you ask their very friendly staff, they will explain to you what each... More

Wisconsin Man Arrested for Planning to Kill Abortion Providers
This week, police in Wisconsin detained a man who was planning to attack a Planned Parenthood clinic. According to the police report, Ralph Lang intended to shoot the clinic's doctor "right in the head." He now faces federal charges.
Nearly two years after Dr. George Tiller was murdered inside his church, the medical professionals who provide abortion care continue to face a campaign of violence, vandalism, and intimidation.
Thanks to all of the medical professionals involved, and to the law-enforcement officials whose work helped stop a senseless act of violence in Wisconsin.

Puma population Biology on the Uncompahgre Plateau, ColoradoLed by Ken Logan
Puma population characteristics are gathered principally by capturing, marking, radio-collaring, and tissue-sampling pumas representing a large majority of the study population. Data from captured and harvested pumas are used to parameterize population models to assess puma population dynamics without and with sport-hunting. As of March 2012, over 160 individual pumas were radio-collared, with most of the adults fitted with GPS collars. In addition, at least another 40 pumas were biologically characterized and tissue-sampled on and around the study area. Tissue samples allow researchers to use molecular genetics to assess relatedness of pumas in the population and maternity, paternity, reproductive success, and to estimate immigration. Behaviors exhibited by GPS/radio-collared pumas allow researchers to link those behaviors with information on genetic relatedness. In addition, we are collaborating with researchers at Colorado State University to examine puma blood samples to reveal types and frequency of disease exposure to pumas in Colorado. Associated with our efforts to estimate puma abundance, we conducted a pilot study in collaboration with other Colorado State University researchers to examine design factors involved in the use of a camera grid and mark-resight models to estimate puma abundance and density in a marked puma population. Research findings are expected to improve puma management in Colorado and to better inform its citizens.

UKSG Presentation November 2009
Posted November 18, 2009
on:At the UKSG E-Resources for FE Seminar I gave a presentation looking at whether libraries and learning resource centres are providing learner centred environments.
My aim for the presentation was to get you all thinking. Over the last few months I've been talking to Librarians putting forward observations and reflections, on how libraries could respond to the evolving needs of learners and their learning styles, to prompt discussion and elicit feedback.
It's been an interesting few months of changing ideas and perceptions resulting in the presentation below. Are we providing Learner Centred Environments? How can a library be "physical" as well as "virtual"? How can we exploit online platforms? How do Learning Styles influence library services?
The presentation showcases innovative ideas, new technology and useful websites, and provides some suggestions to challenge your thinking and influence your future planning.
Diving in at the Deep End – Platforms for effective e-resource management (Powerpoint)
Handout on Learning Styles (MS Word 2007)
I've just spent some time having a look at the Case Studies that have been produced as part of the JISC Shared Infrastructure Services (SIS) Landscape Study and found some very interesting links and ideas.
My main gripe with the studies is that they are all text based and do take some working through. To hopefully make finding the information you require easier, I've tried to summarise some of the studies below and have extracted the links. Hope you find it useful.

- With Mayo Clinic oncologist
Edward T. Creagan, M.D.
read biographyclose windowBiography of
Edward T. Creagan, M.D.
Edward Creagan, M.D.
"The magic of the electronic village is transforming health information. The mouse and keyboard have extended the stethoscope to the 500 million people now online." — Dr. Edward Creagan
The power of the medium inspires Dr. Edward Creagan as he searches for ways to share Mayo Clinic's vast resources with the general public.
Dr. Creagan, a Newark, N.J., native, is board certified in internal medicine, medical oncology, and hospice medicine and palliative care. He has been with Mayo Clinic since 1973 and in 1999 was president of the staff of Mayo Clinic.
Dr. Creagan, a professor of medical oncology at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, was honored in 1995 with the John and Roma Rouse Professor of Humanism in Medicine Award and in 1992 with the Distinguished Mayo Clinician Award, Mayo's highest recognition. He has been recognized with the American Cancer Society Professorship of Clinical Oncology.
He describes his areas of special interest as "wellness as a bio-psycho-social-spiritual-financial model" and fitness, mind-body connection, aging and burnout.
Dr. Creagan has been an associate medical editor with Mayo Clinic's health information websites and has edited publications and CD-ROMs and reviewed articles.
"We the team of (the website) provide reliable, easy-to-understand health and wellness information so that each of us can have productive, meaningful lives," he says.

Common causes of work stress
By Edward T. Creagan, M.D.
5 comments posted
Another colleague and I recently helped facilitate a workshop on how to deal with stress. It was a group of 13 professionals, so we had ample time for reflection and discussion. Participants shared some of the same concerns that I see popping up in blog comments:
Need more help? |
If the stress in your life is more than you can cope with, get help right away.
- How do you deal with increasing expectations in an environment of decreasing resources?
- How do you deal with bullies, not only at school but also in the workplace?
- How do you give your job your all and still have something left?
Here's some of what we talked about:
- It's up to you to determine what's crucial for your health and well-being, and how to balance that with responsibilities that are truly "mission-critical." For example, I recently agreed to participate in an early morning meeting I didn't have much interest in it. I had to get up especially early and consequently by the end of the day, I felt like I had the IQ of a zucchini because of fatigue. Not the best use of my time and energy.
- You don't have to be a perfectionist in everything you do. For example, if I spend 10 hours to prepare a slide presentation when 8 hours would've done, I've lost two hours. That time won't be noticed by my audience, but it might've been spent on another task or responsibility.
- You don't have to allow yourself to be "bullied" by leaders in your organization. One woman shared how she addressed the problem privately over a cup of coffee and came away feeling empowered. She acknowledged that the situation will never be ideal, but she feels that by speaking up she's at least ensured that it won't be so unsettling.
In the end, we all agreed that you have to find a way to take care of yourself physically and mentally, despite the pressures of the workforce. If you let your health deteriorate, your work performance likely will be affected and, thus, your job security.

Celebrate Gaithersburg in Olde Towne |
Join us for the next Celebrate Gaithersburg Festival - Sunday, June 8, 2014, noon - 5 p.m.
2012 Festival Information:
Blue collar rock 'n roll legends The Smithereens are headlining Celebrate Gaithersburg in Olde Towne, the City's rousing street festival taking place on Sunday, September 16. The Smithereens take center stage from 2 to 4 p.m., highlighting a day of music, food, arts, crafts and amusements in and around the intersection of Diamond and Summit Avenues. The festival is open from Noon to 5 p.m.

The possible descent of one of the sport's best fighters and emergence of new faces into relevance underscored boxing in 2012. Transition appears imminent based on the year's noteworthy events.
The sport's mountaintop no longer features Manny Pacquiao. Exchanging turns with Floyd Mayweather Jr., at pound-for-pound elite the past four years, Pacquiao suffered two losses within a six-month period.
Pacquiao's first setback against Timothy Bradley in June was highly disputed considering that Pacquiao controlled the pace most of the bout but lost a controversial split decision. But the Philippines native's second loss six months later sent shock waves.
Mexico's Juan Manuel Marquez finally defeated Pacquiao after three previous unsuccessful attempts. Marquez knocked Pacquiao out cold in the sixth round of their welterweight fight. The sight of an unresponsive Pacquiao lying on the canvas for a few seconds was a far contrast from the fighter who overwhelmed foes through six weight classes.
With Pacquiao looking so fallen, the always-talked-about but never-materialized fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather has lost substantial impact. Mayweather, whose only bout of the year was a decision win over Miguel Cotto in May, and Pacquiao never agreed to the potential blockbuster match.
Mayweather made news outside the ring. Soon after his victory over Cotto, Mayweather served a two-month prison sentence for domestic battery.
Like Pacquiao, Cotto lost in his two ring appearances this year. Cotto's loss against Mayweather ended his stint as junior-middleweight champion. In December, Cotto attempted to recapture another junior-middleweight belt, but lost a decision against Austin Trout.
Argentina's Sergio Martinez won a middleweight title and capitalized on his first pay-per-view opportunity with a convincing decision over Mexico's Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., in September. Martinez dominated the first 11 rounds, but survived a 12th-round knockdown and dramatic late comeback from the previously unbeaten Chavez.
A typical knock from boxing critics is how the sport won't overcome the departure of its crossover stars. When an aging Oscar De La Hoya lost his final bout against Pacquiao four years ago, skeptics said boxing was left without pay-per-view performers only to have Pacquiao and Mayweather take over.
In 2012, boxing had a new group of fighters that could eventually headline pay-per-view dates. Already among the sport's best fighters, super-middleweight champion Andre Ward solidified his status with a 10th-round technical knockout win against light-heavyweight titleholder Chad Dawson in September.
Philippines' native Nonito Donaire is becoming one of the best fighters in the smaller weight classes. Donaire remained busy during the year with four successful defenses of his 122-pound title.
Another fighter making an impact in the lower weight divisions is Adrien Broner. The 23-year-old native of Cincinnati made two successful defenses of his junior-lightweight belt, then moved up to the lightweight class and captured his second weight-division title with an eighth-round TKO over Antonio De Marco in November.
Junior-welterweight Danny Garcia, 24, is another fresh face on the verge of stardom. In March, Garcia, of Philadelphia, won a 140-pound world title with a decision against future Hall of Famer Erik Morales. Three months later, Garcia scored a fourth-round TKO over Amir Khan. Garcia concluded his successful year with a fourth-round knockout win over Morales in October.

The staff was very helpful in finding things to do, helping us book activities and giving us directions. The rooms were decent but definitely could do with some upkeep and could be a lot cleaner. The shower worked well but the door only opens alittle so you have to slide in and out. The metro is close and there is a grocery store around the corner but it is very far from the city center. Overall we enjoyed our stay and was perfect for our budget.

Giant Pacific Octopus
Beautiful, bashful and brainy, the giant Pacific octopus leads a life of mystery. With a personality that's as complex as its appearance, this animal is a master of disguise that can solve a maze, recognize our aquarists, and has the power to jet across the exhibit in a whoosh of water.
Giant Pacific octopuses can open jars, play with toys and even extract food from plastic "prey mazes" created by our aquarists.
Giant Pacific octopuses get "attached" to their aquarists—in a good way. These intelligent animals recognize our aquarists and may even embrace them after a long absence.
Giant Pacific octopuses live in dens or caves and deposit shells and leftover prey items outside in a trash heap, or "midden." Scientists study these "octopuses' gardens" to learn about octopus diets.
Giant Pacific female octopuses prefer life alone. After mating, they live in a cave for seven months, protecting the eggs, and usually die shortly afterward—at only three or four years of age.

Cashews and other assorted nuts
I'm not sure why I'm wasting my time writing this column. If you can believe anything that the ancient Mayan civilization says, the world will be nothing but cosmic dust by the time that you would be able to read it. Do you realize the implications of what this means? I don't have to run this through spell-check. Who says that apocalypses are all bad?
I have a suspicion that those crazy Mayans and their doomsday predictions are causing all of the inaction on the whole "fiscal cliff" thing. I picture President Obama and Speaker of the House John Boehner sitting in a closed-door meeting inside the Oval Office, probably watching Sports Center, drinking beer, eating a bowl of mixed nuts and chatting about this "fiscal cliff" that the United States is rapidly approaching. I see the conversation going something like this:
President Obama: "Hey John, want a peanut?"

Tech Tip: Installing Lag Screws
Lag screws are made of unhardened steel (or stainless steel, which is also unhardened, but is stronger than the mild steel used in standard lags). That means that lag bolts are soft, and can easily be over-torqued and broken during installation. Worse yet, if such a thing is possible, is that many users mistakenly think that because of their size compared to standard screws, lag screws do not need pilot holes. Unfortunately, the wedging action of a large-diameter lag screw will quickly split most lumber! For best results, drill a pilot hole for the threads, and a clearance hole for the shank. I generally drill the pilot hole through both pieces at one time for alignment, then enlarge the pilot hole to the clearance hole size in the piece being fastened .

Timothy Dalton Movies
British actor
Timothy Dalton
has excelled in roles calling for both panache and psychological complexity. His stage training has included stints at the National Youth Theatre, the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and the star-making Birmingham Repertory.
's extensive work in the classics with the Royal Shakespeare Company led to his being cast as King Philip of France in the film
The Lion in Winter
(1968). In 1971,
appeared in
Mary, Queen of Scots
, simultaneously launching a lengthy romantic involvement with that film's star,
Vanessa Redgrave
. When
Roger Moore
quit the
James Bond
film series in 1986, it looked for a while as though his successor would be television star
Pierce Brosnan
; instead, the
producers made the eleventh-hour decision to cast
as secret agent 007 in
The Living Daylights
. Though dashing in a tuxedo and more than willing to perform his own stunts,
was more effectively felt in the role of the dastardly movie swashbuckler-cum-Nazi spy in the breezy sci-fi film
The Rocketeer
Dalton would find his niche in the 90's and 2000's appearing in several made-for-TV productions, like 1992's Framed, and 1994's Scarlett, a mini-series based on Gone with the Wind in which Dalton played Rhett Butler. He would go on to appear in several more TV movies, like Hercules and Marple: The Sittaford Mystery. Dalton's also taken on numerous stage roles, notably playing Lord Asriel in the theater production of His Dark Materials in 2004.
In 2007 he spoofed his own persona ever so lovingly in the action comedy Hot Fuzz. He became part of the Pixar family by voicing one of the dramatically inclined plaything in Toy Story 3. That same year he had a major part in the infamous bomb The Tourist. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A top London cop who is so good at his job that he makes his fellow officers look like slackers by comparison is "promoted" to serve in the sleepy village of Sandford in this contemporary action comedy from the creators of Shaun of the Dead. Police constable Nicholas Angel (Simon Pegg) always gets his man, but these days his impeccable record seems to be more indicative of his fellow officers' shortcomings than his own formidable skills as a keeper of the peace. Loathe to stand idly by as their once respectable track record is steadily soiled by the hyper-competent actions of one lone overachiever, Sergeant Angel's superiors at the Met soon determine to remedy their problem by relocating the decorated constable to the West Country village of Sanford -- where tranquil garden parties and neighborhood watch meetings stand in stark contrast to the violent crime and heated gunplay of the city. As Sergeant Angel does his best to adjust to the relative calm of his new environment, his oafish new partner Danny Butterman (Nick Frost) strives to gain the respect of his fellow constables while sustaining himself on fantasies of his favorite action films and police shows. Later, just as it begins to appear as if Sergeant Angel has been relegated to an uneventful existence in the relative calm of the countryside, a series of horrific "accidents" lead him to suspect that the tranquil hamlet of Sanford has fallen prey to a sinister plot which reeks of foul play. Jim Broadbent, Timothy Dalton, Steve Coogan, and Martin Freeman co-star in the Edgar Wright film. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Tales From Earthsea

Animator Goro Miyazaki, son of the famous Hayao Miyazaki ("The Walt Disney of Japan"), makes his directorial debut with the animated feature Tales from Earthsea (aka Gedo Senki). Miyazaki loosely adapted the work from the third and fourth volumes in best-selling sci-fi author Ursula K. Le Guin's infamous series of cult novels -- all set in Earthsea, a Tolkien-esque fantasy realm. Gedo Senki opens at a point when Earthsea is deteriorating rapidly, and the power of magic is waning -- tendencies signaled by the sudden, frightening reappearance of dragons in the land of humankind. Ged Sparrowhawk was once a lowly goat herder but is now known as Lord Archmage, the most powerful of all wizards. He soon meets Prince Arren of Enlad -- a teenage boy chased by a "shadow," the force that is tipping the world out of balance and driving innumerable people to the point of insanity.
The men team up and journey to Hort Town, the Earthsea capital city, where they find the entire community turned upside down -- craftsmen have abandoned their trades, slavery runs rampant, addicts clamor in the streets. They ultimately find refuge in the priestess Tenar's palace, also occupied by the scarred orphan girl Therru. While the latter initially avoids Arren in fear of his "dark side," Arren bides his time in the nearby fields, being mentored by Ged on the balance of creation. Therru eventually opens up to Arren, but he grows increasingly disturbed by nightmares about being chased by the shadow, and his daytime fear of it grows absolutely overwhelming. Ged then discovers that the cause of the kingdom-wide "imbalance" is actually his old arch nemesis, the wizard Cob, who has opened up the gateway between the living and the dead, and hopes to attain eternal life, meanwhile plotting to murder Ged in vengeance for an act he committed long ago.
In fear of his evil self, Arren absconds from Tenar's palace -- actively fleeing from the shadow -- but ultimately faints and turns up at the castle of Cob. The latter's minions give their guest "hazia," which causes him to lose his bearings and tell Cob his real name. Arren thus becomes enslaved to the wizard. Meanwhile, Ged and Therru turn up, and bring Arren back to full awareness. With their assistance, he is able to surmount the temptation of eternal life; he then does an about face, and, with the assistance of an enchanted sword, prepares to do battle with Cob. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Advertised as telling the tale of "The Man Behind the Myth," the expensive-looking but economically produced NBC miniseries Hercules stars Paul Telfer as the musclebound protagonist. The issue of a romantic fling between Alcmene (Elizabeth Perkins), the Princess of Thebes, and God of the Underworld Zeus, Hercules is banished by his mother and scorned by his envious half brother Iphicles (Luke Ford). In fact, for a while it seems as though poor Herc has nothing but enemies. In addition to his own mother and brother, our hero is hated by Zeus' wife, Hera -- so much so that a war breaks out between the two gods -- and by covetous Grecian monarchs Eurystheus (Kristian Schmid) and Anateus (Tyler Mane). Worse still, Hercules has managed to get on the bad side of the Delphic Oracle Tiresias (Kim Coates) by killing that worthy's three sons. As a means to destroy Hercules and prevent him from taking his rightful place beside the throne of Zeus, all manner of deadly tasks and challenges are thrown at the poor guy, enabling the producers to trot out innumerable CGI battle sequences. Fortunately, Hercules can rely upon the help and support of Alcmene's husband, Amphytron (Timothy Dalton), not to mention Herc's sidekick, the troubadour Linus (Sean Astin, going through his familiar Lord of the Rings paces in a different setting!); his sweetheart, the statuesque Goddess of Nature Deianeira (Leelee Sobieski); and, at least for a little while, Herc's wife, the Priestess Megara (Leeanna Walsman). By the time Hercules made it to the small screen, it had been pared down from a multipart miniseries to a single, 150-minute feature film, leaving several plot points unresolved and removing a number of key characters -- including the all-important Zeus and Hera, who never appear! Evidently NBC didn't have much faith in this Hallmark production, as witness the network's decision to telecast the film on May 16, 2005, directly opposite the series finale of Everybody Loves Raymond. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

In a land where cartoon characters and flesh-and-blood people work side by side, one little black duck lands in a big pot of trouble in this comedy, which brings the beloved Looney Tunes characters into the real world. Daffy Duck (voice of Joe Alaskey) has grown tired of his status as Warner Bros.' leading avian second fiddle and demands that if he can't be given equal billing with his rival Bugs Bunny (also voiced by Alaskey), he wants to be released from his contract. Kate Houghton (Jenna Elfman), Warners' vice president in charge of comedy, is way ahead of Daffy and orders studio stuntman D.J. Drake (Brendan Fraser) to kick the duck off the studio lot. D.J. soon discovers getting rid of Daffy is no easy task, and the duck is in tow when Drake makes a startling discovery -- his father Damien Drake (Timothy Dalton), a movie star best know for playing ultra-suave secret agents, really
a secret agent, and he's been kidnapped by Mr. Chairman (Steve Martin), the evil leader of the monolithic Acme Corporation. Damien knows the secret hiding place of the priceless Blue Monkey Diamond and Mr. Chairman will stop at nothing to get it, so D.J. and Daffy set out to rescue Damien and save the diamond, one step behind Acme's musclemen and one step ahead of Kate and Bugs, who now realize how important Daffy is to the Looney Tunes franchise. Looney Tunes: Back in Action also stars Heather Locklear as a lounge singer working for Yosemite Sam (voice of Steve Babiar), Joan Cusack, John Cleese, Stan Freberg, and Roger Corman. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This loosely fact-based oater attempts to mimic the youthful heartthrobs in Western garb formula of Young Guns (1988), as well as the cheeky humor and some plot elements of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969). Colin Farrell stars as Jesse James, who returns home from the Civil War to his small hometown to find that a crooked railroad baron (Harris Yulin) has been illegally forcing the residents from the homesteads to make way for a new rail line. Enraged, James leads a band of outlaws including his brother Frank (Gabriel Macht), Cole Younger (Scott Caan), and Younger's brothers Bob (Will McCormack) and Jim (Gregory Smith) on a criminal spree of bank robbing. Although their Robin Hood-style tactics soon make them local heroes, the James-Younger gang members find themselves pursued by the dogged Allan Pinkerton (Timothy Dalton), the world's first "private eye." Along the way, Jesse also finds romance with Zee Mimms (Ali Larter), the daughter of a local doctor (Ronny Cox). ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

This made-for-cable drama was adapted from the true story of the only exorcism sanctioned by the Catholic church to be performed in America in the 20th century. Father Bowdern (Timothy Dalton) is a Jesuit priest and military veteran still dealing with the emotional traumas of World War II as he tends to his flock in St. Louis in 1949. A strange case comes to Bowdern's attention -- a boy named Robbie who has strange markings on his body and appears to be under the influence of some otherworldly spirit. Robbie's family believes the child has been possessed by a demon, and in time Bowdern agrees. After receiving the consent of the Vatican, Bowdern attempts the torturous process of casting out the demon, which proves to be as much a test of his own powers as those of the devil. Possessed also stars Piper Laurie, Christopher Plummer, and Henry Czerny. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Also known as Bitter Suite, the made-for-cable romantic comedy TimeShare is predicated on the premise that two extremely different people have been booked to occupy the same California house at different times of the year. The inevitable mix-up in scheduling occurs, forcing humorless German scientist Julia Weiland (Nastassja Kinski) to spend the summer under the same roof with divorced chef Matt (Timothy Dalton). Not surprisingly, this is an oil-and-water combination, made worse by the endless bickering between Julia and Matt's equally ill-matched children. Will True Love eventually prevail over divergent personalities--and what of Julia's "Ralph Bellamy" boyfriend, stuffy bioengineer Russell (Geoffrey Lower? Filmed on location in Malibu, TimeShare debuted June 18, 2000, on the Fox Family channel. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The epic saga of the Queen of Egypt gets yet another retelling in Cleopatra, a four-hour, two-part spectacular produced for television. Leonor Varela plays Cleopatra, the Egyptian monarch who uses her wisdom, charm, ruthlessness, and seductive powers to work her way into the heart (and bed) of Roman leader Julius Caesar (Timothy Dalton). But Cleopatra shifts her romantic alliances to Marc Anthony (Billy Zane) just in time for Caesar's death and Anthony's rise to the throne. When Rome goes to war, however, Cleopatra realizes that she can only remain in power for so long, eventually making a late date with an asp when things get especially grim. This is at least the 12th film based on Cleopatra's life (the best-known being the infamously expensive 1962 version starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton). Produced by Hallmark for NBC television, this version first aired as a two-part miniseries in May 1999. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The Informant
This made-for-cable drama concerns political unrest and personal crises set against the battle for a free Ireland in Belfast in 1983. Gingy McAnally (Anthony Brophy) is a member of the Irish Republican Army who, after serving a stretch in prison, is once again called upon by the IRA to work with them. While McAnally is not certain if he wants to get involved with "the troubles" again, he grudgingly agrees after the safety of his wife and children is threatened by IRA henchmen. However, McAnally is soon busted by Lt. David Ferris (Cary Elwes), a British army officer, and is ruthlessly interrogated by Chief Inspector Rennie (Timothy Dalton), one of the leaders of the Belfast Police who is determined to put the rebels out of business. Rennie convinces McAnally that his only hope is to admit to everything he knows about the IRA and its members; McAnally sheepishly goes along with Rennie's demands, and in time, he strikes up a friendship with Ferris. However, McAnally discovers that betraying the IRA has put his life in grave danger; just as significantly, his wife and family are no longer sure that they can trust him after he turns in his comrades. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Joy Miller (Fran Drescher) is a beautician who teaches an evening course in hairstyling at a Brooklyn community college. When a cigarette dropped on a wig leads to a fire, Joy saves the lab animals kept in the building and achieves 15 minutes of local notoriety. Grushinsky (Ian McNeice), a representative of the leader of the small Eastern European nation of Slovetzia, is visiting the United States while looking for a tutor for the leader's three children. Thinking Joy teaches science (apparently the Slovetzian government doesn't check the resumes of their teaching staff too closely), Grushinsky offers Joy the job, believing that it would be good PR to have a well-known American educator on hand. Joy takes the job and must now deal with Boris Pochenko (Timothy Dalton), the grim and humorless tyrant who rules Slovetzia. Joy's low-brow fashion sense and broad nasal twang of a voice don't sit well with Boris at first, but the kids love her; in time, she teaches Boris to lighten up and enjoy himself, and romance begins to bloom between the unlikely couple. While Fran Drescher had a number of film roles before her TV series The Nanny, this was her first starring role following the show's success. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Salt Water Moose
Made in Canada, this youthful family adventure follows a boat-builder's rambunctious but well-meaning daughter and her pal team up to attempt to bring companionship to a lonely bull moose marooned on a tiny island off the Nova Scotia Coast. Village local Jo Parnell (Katharine Isobel) is a spirited tomboy. Her lack of girly ways isn't surprising as she was raised by her widowed shipwright father (Timothy Dalton). Bobby Scoffield (Johnny Morina) is the new kid in town. Forced away from the city when his recently divorced mom (Lolita Davidovich) decided to take a summer break in her hometown, he considers himself stranded in the heart of hicksville. He and Jo become friends, and when she informs him of her plan, he helps her. First the two ingeniously trap a female moose. They then build a large raft for the voyage. Once afloat however, disaster comes in the form of a big squall and suddenly the children are fighting not only for their lives, but also that of their leggy passenger. Featuring an excellent cast, a lively story and beautiful on location photography, Salt Water Moose is an above-average family film. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

The sponsorship of noted filmmaker Martin Scorsese helped the novice filmmakers making this film get it produced and receive mainstream distribution. In addition, it features a vast number of appearances by well-known performers, who took an interest in the project, taking union minimum pay. In the story, Jake (Eric Stoltz) has grown up in a wonderfully neurotic household. It is just as well that he has developed a fondness for drama, as this material is excellent fodder for his playwriting. He has spent a lot of time collaborating with his friend Chris (Ralph Macchio) writing plays, and eventually is given his chance to prove his stuff in New York City. There, he discovers that Chris wants to be more than just a friend, and an important stage actress (Kathleen Turner) also has the hots for him. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Arnold Schwarzenegger appears as a pumped-up Shakespearian hero while an announcer bellows, "Something is rotten in Denmark -- and Hamlet is taking out the trash!" This gag sets the stage for the post-modernist action epic The Last Action Hero. The film concerns Danny Madigan (Austin O'Brien), a lonely eleven-year-old boy who escapes from his bleak New York City reality by glorying in the action adventure movies of his favorite film character, Jack Slater (Arnold Schwarzenegger). Danny's friend is an elderly movie projectionist, Nick (Robert Prosky), who lets Danny into the shabby Times Square movie theater where he works so Danny can see Slater's new movie. He hands Danny a magic ticket given to him years ago by Houdini, and when Nick rips the ticket and gives Danny the stub, Danny finds himself catapulted from the theater into the back seat of Slater's speeding sports car in "Jack Slater IV." Danny becomes Slater's helper as Jack battles a trio of nefarious bad guys --Benedict (Charles Dance), Vivaldi (Anthony Quinn) and The Ripper (Tom Noonan). But things get out of hand when Benedict steals Danny's magic ticket stub and transports himself into Danny's reality. Benedict and The Ripper proceed to wreak havoc along Broadway, forcing Slater to cross into reality to get the villains and, in the process, learn about blood and pain. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

After getting his start as a visual effects artist on the original Star Wars trilogy, Spielberg protege Joe Johnston found success as a director with his debut film, the blockbuster family adventure Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. For his sophomore outing, Johnston helmed this action-adventurer, set in 1930s Hollywood and in the spirit of old pulp comics and adventure serials, and co-adapted from the David Stevens graphic novel by Danny Bilson and Paul De Meo. Bill Campbell stars as Cliff Secord, an eager young pilot who finds himself in possession of a secret jet-pack that gives him the ability to fly. Cliff soon learns that screen-star Neville Sinclair (Timothy Dalton) will stop at nothing to get his hands on the rocket pack so he can give it to the Nazis. As The Rocketeer and with a little help from his mechanic friend played by Alan Arkin, it's up to Cliff to elude Sinclair, defeat the Nazis, and save his girlfriend Jenny (Jennifer Connelly). ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi
