"Average hotel"
Reviewed Nov 18, 2013
bscotthome | Brunswick, Georgia
We needed a hotel for open house at the local university. I had stayed at a La Quinta a long time ago and did not know what to expect. The results were under-whelming. I think they jacked the room price up $10 due to the event that weekend. The downstairs and lobby area smelled of old sweat. Check-in was a breeze. The room itself was not bad and the beds were acceptably comfortable. The shower was VERY loud. Not much counter space at all around the sink for my wife and daughter to get ready. The continental breakfast was sparse. Very few choices. The eating area was very small and the food area was super cramped with just a few people in it. Overall, we needed a place to sleep for a few hours and get ready for our open house. This hotel met those criteria, but I was not impressed with this hotel and hope this is not the standard of all La Quintas.

"Clean and inexpensive, but could be much better"
Reviewed Oct 27, 2013
timekeeper13 | Riverview, FL
My wife and I stayed 2 night Oct 4 & 5 2013. We booked there because the rates were low, we had pleasant experiences with past LaQuinta stays, and it was close to the small town of Sylvania where we were participating in a bicycle event. We were assigned a 1st floor handicap room as requested. The check-in was smooth and friendly. Our room was right next to the pool and across from the elevator. Early in the evening there was a big commotion and discovered that there was a huge group of young girls having a birthday party in the lobby/breakfast area. No problem - it was early. Then they moved into the pool and it really got loud. At 9:30pm I asked the desk person when the pool closes and she told me 11pm (the card in the room info states 10pm). We got lucky and they vacated the pool before 10pm and things quieted down until someone's dog started yapping and kept that up until around 11. We turned the fan on the AC on, put some white noise on loud on the computer and managed to get to sleep. Saturday evening was quiet with no sign of young girls or dogs. The bed was clean and comfortable, The top spread on the bed had a very obvious hole from a cigarette and the thin blanket had several holes. These holes really detracted from what could have been a very good first impression. A little more attention to details would have made a huge difference. The breakfast gets a mixed rating - the waffles were great but the eggs, sausage and biscuits were cold even though we were there shortly after breakfast opened. The biscuits were extremely hard. Pulling them apart did not work so I attempted to cut with a plastic knife but was unsuccessful. Again - a little more attention could have made breakfast great. It looked appetizing but being cold ruined it. I will not stay at this hotel if I ever have the opportunity to visit Statesboro again.

"Rooms Need Renovation"
Reviewed Oct 3, 2013
Brian C | Johns Creek, Georgia
My son is a freshman at GA Southern and I have stayed here 3 times. The first 2 visits were Ok the staff is friendly and helpful. The last visit the quality of the room was not very good! We stayed in a King suite and the first room given to us had a very bad smell to it. We requested and were given a different room, but the quality was just not there. There were stains on walls and ceilings and the carpet had a iron burn in it and was worn and had a dirty appearance. A friend also had a similar complaint on a previous visit. The location is great, very close to campus. We are going back for family weekend and will be staying here again. (only because there is no other available hotel rooms close by and we already had reservations) I will review again after this visit. But all in all, I think it is time for this hotel to start a total room renovation. They have the selling point of the university, but really need to do something soon. People will be going down the street to competing hotels if they don't.

Selecting a Perfect Avocado
Avocados ripen after harvesting. As each one ripens, its color transforms from dark green to a deep purple, almost black, color. However, touch is usually a more accurate indicator of ripeness. If the avocado gives to firm but gentle touch, that means it's ripe and ready to eat. If it's mushy or soft, it's probably overripe.
Care and Handling
An unripe avocado can take four to five days to ripen at room temp. To speed up the process, place it in a bag with an apple or banana for two to three days until ripe. Store a cut, ripe avocado in an air-tightcontainer or cover with clear plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for a day.
Selecting a Perfect Bunch of Grapes
- Choose grapes that are plump and firmly attached to their stems with no wilting. Look for red grapes that have a deep purple color with no sign of green coloring. When buying green grapes, those with a slight pale-yellow color will have the best flavor and texture.
Care and Handling
Store unwashed grapes in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to a week. The sooner you enjoy them, the better the taste and firmness.
Grapes Contain
Phytonutrients, particularly in the compound resveratrol, that are found within the skin of grapes and may help prevent various kinds of cancer and heart disease
- Vitamin A
- A variety of minerals
- A higher flavonoid content in red grapes, which makes them richer in antioxidants than white grapes
- 1 to 1.5 grams of fiber, 0.3 grams of fat, 2 milligrams of sodium, no cholesterol and just about 100 calories in one cup of grapes
Selecting a Perfect Apple
Good apples are relatively easy to select. Of course, there are many different varieties, but there are some common things to look for. Just watch to make sure they're free of bruises, decay or broken or shriveled skin. Also, they should be relatively firm, which is usually a good indicator of ripeness.
Bananas Contain:
- 20% of the Daily Value of Vitamin B6 to help reduce fatigue, provide the body with iron and jump start your metabolism
- 15% of the Daily Value of Vitamin C to reduce fatigue, develop bones, cartilage, gums and teeth
- 15% of the Daily Value of Manganese to maintain healthy bones and protect cells
- 13% of the Daily Value of Potassium to maintain muscles and blood pressure
- 12% of the dietary fiber intake (one banana) to improve digestion
Care and Handling
Don't store unripe bananas in the refrigerator. So they'll ripen properly, store at room temp. However, after they ripen, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Typically, bananas will ripen in one to three days. If you want them to ripen faster, place them in a paper or plastic bag. Consider adding an apple to the bag to speed the ripening process. And just because a banana is overripe doesn't mean you have to discard it. Slice the banana into small chucks, place in a freezer bag and store in the freezer for use in breads, desserts, smoothies and sauces.
Selecting a Perfect Blackberry
When choosing blackberries, look for deep, evenly colored berries with a nice sheen. The berries should be plump and dry and should not have dents or bruises. Blackberries range in color from deep blue/purple to deep purple/black. Blackberries are often two-tone in color, which is perfectly natural and does not affect ripeness.
Care and Handling
For best results, refrigerate your blackberries and keep them dry in storage. Blackberries, like their bush-berry cousin, the raspberry, are especially fragile. It is important to handle them gently when rinsing. If you plan to freeze your blackberries for jams and jellies, wash your berries carefully in cold water and pack them into freezable containers. Berries need to be rinsed just before use.

Introducing the 20.3 megapixels Samsung Smart Camera NX1000 with 1/4000 fast shutter and Built-in Wi-Fi.
Customized for the NX System, the brand-new, professional-grade, 20.3MP APS-C CMOS Sensor produces images that rival those of any premium DSLR. Each individual pixel has a large sensor area and receives more light, guaranteeing low noise levels, high dynamic range and accurate color differentiation. The higher sensitivity allows you to shoot during low-light situations without graininess or other noise. The new sensor also provides Full HD video output capabilities.
Shutter speed can make the difference between capturing an iconic image and missing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The NX1000's 1/4000 shutter speed gives you the flexibility to shoot like the pros—at varying speeds and light exposures. The NX1000's shutter even automatically adjusts itself as it senses environmental factors such as temperature and camera direction. And the electronically controlled focal-plane shutter reduces exposure errors.
The NX1000 features super-fast High Speed Capture capabilities provide an simple yet sophisticated way to capture images in total focus. The ultra-high speed Auto Focus (AF) that can rival almost any system camera and is core component of the system. The result is a fast and precise AF System that captures life's fleeting moments. And with a sequential rate of 8fps, capturing fast-moving objects in perfect clarity are no longer a challenge.
Built with 1080 30p Full HD movie recording capabilities, the NX1000 transforms shooting video with a still camera into an art form. Choose from a wide range of viewing angles and zoom with confidence. The mirrorless CMOS image sensor offers precise auto focus even while you shoot. For a truly cinematic experience, the NX System has been fitted with an 18-200mm lens exclusively for Full HD video.
The NX1000's Wi-Fi connectivity lets you connect your digital camera to a wireless network. Save photos and videos directly to a computer or cloud service while you shoot, email them, print them wirelessly, or upload them straight to Facebook™ or YouTube. You'll never have to worry about losing a great shot, running out of storage space, or remembering to bring the right cable along.
The NX1000 packs the power of a professional-grade digital camera within a sleek and compact design. Its ergonomically crafted exterior fits perfectly within your hand, while the topside design feels solid and looks just as sturdy. The NX System gets its charming good looks through the perfect combination of modern metallic styling and classic clean lines. On the inside, the large CMOS Sensor replaces any mirrors for a smaller camera body. The lightweight body makes it more portable and easier to shoot in a variety of angles and positions, making it the ultimate professional-grade camera that you can carry in your pocket.
Smart Filter 2.0 options make it easy to create special moods. Choose the Tilt & Shift Lens Effect for a miniaturized look, the Vignetting Effect for striking contrasts, Half-Tone Dot for a comic-book look, and more. With the Selective Color feature, you can even choose the colors you want to emphasize.
The wrong exposure can ruin even the most carefully framed shot. The NX System's imaging sensor offers a wide ISO sensitivity range of up to 12,800 at normal settings. Even indoors or at night, you can create images with minimal noise, rich tonal gradations and faithful colors—without a flash. You'll also capture clearer, crisper images of fast-moving objects.
Capture the sweeping beauty of a natural landscape or the grandeur of a vast skyline. The NX1000's panoramic capabilities let you catch every detail on the horizon with the push of a button. You can even create 3D panoramic photos and wow your friends by displaying them on a 3D-ready HDTV.
The intuitive Smart Panel user interface puts all the settings you need right at your fingertips. Every key feature is easy to access, thanks to on-screen icons and clearly explained menu items. That means faster adjustments so you won't miss that perfect shot.
No more fumbling to find the right buttons while you try to capture a fleeting moment. With i-Function 2.0, you can adjust key settings using the focus ring right on the lens. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned pro, you can quickly choose the perfect settings for your shot.

Glass candlesticks are a design classic, and our chunky versions are pleasingly contemporary. The thick bubbles of glass are topped with a holed platform that supports tall thin dinner candles or thick chunky church candles. The larger version is stunning on its own or beautiful when standing next to one or two of our smaller version.
Handpicked because: Glass doesn't have to mean fragility.

We're pleased to see some lawmakers in Washington having second thoughts about sequestration.
There's no doubt the budget and the deficit need cutting, but the unintended consequences of doing it with a chain saw are becoming clear - especially in communities that host major military bases. Commissaries are being closed an extra day a week. Teachers at installation schools are being furloughed.
But those are minor irritations compared to the larger issue: military preparedness. The sequestration cuts may hamstring the armed services by hampering crucial maintenance and training efforts. That is not a good thing in this volatile world, especially when it affects the rapid-response forces that are critical to the nation's defense - like the 82nd Airborne Division.
A Republican-sponsored measure in Congress, designed to prevent a government shutdown later this month, provides a $10 billion increase in funding for military operations and maintenance. It also adds funding for veterans' health programs.
It would have been better if this budget surgery had been done with a scalpel in the first place. But at this point, we'll welcome the first aid whenever we get it.

I read Wonderstruck by Brian Selznick and once I was done reading I was literally wonderstruck. It only took me one day to read, because I could not put it down. The first night I began to read it, I didn't finish reading until 3 A.M. The main characters in the book were Ben and Rose. The beauty is that Ben's story is told in words, while Rose's story is told in pictures. Their stories are set 50 years apart and it is amazing how they come together before the book ends. Some of the adventures in the book take place in New York at different museums. This is one of the best books that I have ever read. I highly recommend this book to fans of Brian Selznick, artists and readers of all ages.

We are a new company and have developed an online service that we want to charge a monthly fee to use. So far, we have tried two merchant account providers and have been turned down because we are a new company with no trading history, and we want to use recurring payments.
It seems recurring payments is the real stumbling block because there is a high risk of chargebacks.
On top of the recurring payments the merchant account should work with a payment gateway that allows our website to host the credit card form on our page for example in an iframe or posting the cc details directly to the payment gateway, therefore reducing our PCI requirements.
Anyone else in a similar situation and managed to get a payment gateway and merchant account in the UK?
FYI we are currently applying to SagePay.

WEMU's Bob Eccles speaks with Eastern Michigan University astronomy professor Norbert Vance about Friday's meteor over Russia and asteroid fly-by.
The death of Eastern Michigan University student Julia Niswender has been ruled a homicide. That's according to final autopsy results from the Washtenaw County Medical Examiner's office, which says toxicology results did not yield any conclusive information. Niswender was found dead in her off-campus apartment December 11th. A suspect has not been identified, but a press release indicates that Ypsilanti Police, State Police and Federal agencies "continue to utilize all available tools and investigate all possible sources of information" regarding the case. Anyone with information that c
Investigators say they're still waiting for toxicology results, forensic laboratory analysis and a final autopsy report as they continue their investigation into the death of Eastern Michigan University junior Julia Niswender. Niswender was found dead in her off-campus apartment about a month ago. Her death is being investigated as a homicide. Police say they continue to "investigate and interview a number of subjects", and are working closely with Niswender's family. Anyone with information that could be useful to investigators is urged to call Detective Sgt.
The Washtenaw County Medical Examiner's office is bringing in some additional experts to help them with the process of determining Julia Niswender's cause of death. That's the word from Ypsilanti police, who also say they're following up on leads they've received, but can't offer any additional details. Niswender's death is being investigated as a possible homicide.
The investigation into how 23 yerar-old Julia Niswender died continues, as the Eastern Michigan University student is laid to rest. A funeral service was held today for Niswender, who was found dead in her off-campus apartment last Tuesday night. Ypsilanti police spent the weekend talking to people in the area surrounding the Peninsular Place apartments, trying to find out if anyone saw or heard anything that might be helpful to the investigation. Niswender's death is being investigated as a possible homicide, although the cause of her death has not yet been determined.
About 200 people attended a candlelight vigil Friday night at the Lakehouse at Eastern Michigan University for Julia Niswender, the EMU junior found dead in her off-campus apartment Tuesday night. Friends and family took turns speaking about the 23 year-old and what they'll miss most about her.
Ypsilanti police are investigating Niswender's death as a "possible homicide". Preliminary autopsy results were inconclusive and more tests will be conducted to determine the cause of death.
EMU Students and friends of Julia Niswender will hold a candle-light vigil in her memory Friday night. The vigil will take place at the Lakehouse, near the Student Center on the EMU campus. It's scheduled to start at eight-thirty Friday night, and participants are asked to bring their own candles. A fund has also been established to help Niswender's family with expenses. Donations to the Julia Niswender Fund will be accepted Friday night.
Preliminary autopsy results for 23 year-old Julia Niswender are back, but they don't shed much light on how the Eastern Michigan University junior died. Ypsilanti police say the cause of death is listed as "pending". Toxicology results will take another two or three weeks. Investigators say there were no outward signs of trauma to Niswender's body, but there were indications of "possible foul play". Niswender's body was discovered Tuesday night in her off-campus apartment in the 1000 block of Huron River Drive. Her death is being treated as a possible homicide.
Ypsilanti and Eastern Michigan University police are investigating the death of a student in the off-campus Peninsular Place apartments. The victim has been identified as 23 year-old Julia Catherine Niswender. She was found dead in an apartment in the one thousand block of Huron River Drive. Police have yet to determine the cause of her death, but are treating the case as a possible homicide. A campus forum on safety was held this afternoon, where it was announced that there will be additional campus police patrols for at least a few days. Counseling services are also being made availa

Bio and Links
I spend a lot of time in cemeteries, photographing, verifying and cleaning up gravesites, for the Historical Society, myself and Find-a-grave. It can be a lot of work, but the pleasure and satisfaction I receive is worth it all. I have many more pictures of headstones to be added to this site, as time allows, in cemeteries from the West coast to the East coast.
I will be glad to look for your ancestor's grave in Lancaster County, PA, IF you have basic information to help me with your search.
I will, also be glad to transfer your ancestors grave to you,
I will add obituaries, but
please do not ask me to add unverified biographies, and information that is only of interest to you.
(trips you shared, hobbies of deceased, how they were sweet to you at Christmas, where they lived in the 1930 census, etc.) After all, this is not a genealogy site, but is a tool that can help Cemetery Historians as well as family historians and genealogists, alike.
on occasion add little sayings on headstones at your request,
it is up to my discretion. If you have something to add that I have mentioned above, please contact me and I will be more than happy to add it for you. I will be more than happy to link them to children, parents and spouses.
I have been inundated recently to add things like, "Sister" or "Mother." I feel the most important things on Memorials are Name, Dates and family links. I will add Biographies as long as it is just that, and not things like "My granny baked the best cookies" etc. I just do not have time to do that sort of thing.
I have received quite a few requests to transfer listings and thought this might be a good time to change my profile information to reflect my personal policy.

Alexander Lee
Hi Linda,
My apologies for not following the correct process. I was not sure how to handle my request. It's possible there was another Alexander Lee.
However, unless there was another Alexander "Rigdon" Lee, at least some of the info you have is incorrect.
My Alexander was born 1830 in Lower Chanceford (sp?), Pa. He married Mary Ann Walker (born 1839 and died 1892). Alex died 1907. I have his Civil War records and his death certificate, amongst other papers. I saw another grave marker with his initials in the Slateridge Cemetery, but it is not my gr-gr-grandfather's. I'm not aware of who that was.
Thank you for refreshing me on the rules of findagrave. I hope my info will help clarify the dilemma.

North of Ukiah, a rare white deer herd wanders through the hills near the southwest facing foothill vineyard that grew this Cabernet Sauvignon. This full-flavored wine shows the intensity of its red soil roots. It is ripe and plumy, with intriguing notes of anise and brown spice, and the structure to age five years or more from the vintage.
"Deep ruby. Spicy cherry and licorice aromas, with a pungent note of tobacco. Peppery, slow-to-open dark berry and bitter cherry flavors are given lift and bite by tangy acidity. Finishes tight and linear, with sneaky tannins and hints of bitter chocolate and vanilla. Not especially expressive right now; maybe a little bottle age will help this wine to loosen up." 88 Points International Wine Cellar

Inside NAB's first concept branch: photos
Summary: The National Australia Bank (NAB) is looking to smarten up its branches going forwards, and last month unveiled its very first concept store in Melbourne. ZDNet Australia went to take a look behind the scenes at the branch's mix of smart self-service technology and open-plan design.
1 of 10
Image(Credit: Luke Hopewell/ZDNet Australia)
The new concept branch is situated on the ground floor of this colourful building, the bank's Docklands office.
The concept branch was opened in December with a view to being a new, retail-style approach to banking rather than the traditional teller-driven system.

Saraka Bô
A pair of French detectives enter a different world after they are assigned to solve a puzzling double homicide that occurred in an African neighborhood in Paris. The corpses of the two masked Malian women were discovered ritually mutilated and hanging from a ceiling. The detectives' search leads them to a Malian father and his 18-year-old daughter. The father confesses to the crime, but further investigation reveals that he is lying. Even more puzzled than before, the two investigators consult a noted professor who tries to help them understand the true nature of the crime. The story is based on a book by controversial French academic Tobie Nathan, a self-proclaimed "ethno-psychiatrist," who has been researching the problems experienced by France's many immigrants, particularly African ones, as they wrestle with the clash between their native beliefs and their new culture. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

La Revanche De Lucy
After Polish-born writer-director Janusz Mrozowski, a French resident for the past 30 years, made a series of 30-minute films based on African writings, he was approached by Africans to do a cinematic survey of past events in African history. Filming in Burkina Faso, Mrozowski responded with this comedy about a dictator kidnapped from the present-day and taken back through the mists of time. There he meets the mother of humanity, Lucy, who teaches him the basics of sexual equality. By the time he returns to the present, he's also received an education in 16th-century slave-trading and European influences on Africa. Shown at the 1998 FESPACO Pan-African Film Festival (Ouagadougou). ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Jonas et Lila, à demain
Swiss director Alain Tanner, who wowed audiences in the 1970s with his art house classic Jonah, Who Will Be 25 in the Year 2000 (1976), returns to the same territory with this decidedly more downbeat film. The movie details the life of Jonah (Jerome Robart), who has indeed just turned 25. A recent film school graduate, he is living with his Senegalese girlfriend and childhood sweetheart Lila (Aissa Maiga), and occasionally shooting documentaries. The film explores the shifting emotional landscape of Jonah and Lila's relationship as the two take in a boarder, Irina - a Russian woman on the lam from Soviet mobsters, for whom she made an adult movie. Meanwhile, Lila longs to return to Senegal to be with her grandmother. Jonas et Lila, a Demain ran at the 1999 San Sebastian Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

Le Prof
Two teachers find themselves at odds in this drama from France. Hippolyte (Yvan Attal) and Alexandre (Jean-Hugues Anglade) have been friends since childhood; now they're both instructors and assistant principals at the same high school. They're both dedicated to making education exciting and fun for their students, and they want to teach them the importance of not blindly following in the paths of others, but lately they find themselves arguing over the best way to implement these goals. It doesn't help that they've both fallen for the same woman (Helene de Fougerolles), and neither wants to step aside and let the other man win her hand. Le Prof was based on a novel by Alexandre Jardin, who also directed and co-wrote the film's screenplay. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Lise Et Andre
A fallen woman seeks to renew her faith with the help of a clergyman who has nearly lost his in this French drama. Lise (Isabelle Candelier) is a Parisian prostitute who has a young son, Sebastien. Lise dotes on her boy, who has a gift for music and sings in a children's choir directed by aging parish priest Father Andre (Michel Duchaussoy). Sebastien becomes involved in an auto accident that sends him into a coma; after he remains unconscious for three months, Lise begins to panic, desperate for a remedy that medical science can't provide. When she is told of a field in a village in rural France where a miracle is said to have occurred some years before -- an apparition of the Virgin Mary arrived to provide food for a group of starving children -- Lise wants to travel to the site of the miracle to pray for her son. She also insists that Father Andre come along, but the priest is not eager to go, due to his age, his health, and his increasing cynicism about religion.

A woman learns to care for others when she's forced to help people on the wrong side of the law in this drama. Marie-Line (Muriel Robin) is a single woman in her mid-forties who oversees the cleaning crew at a large office building. On the job, Marie-Line is all business, with no patience for laziness and no tolerance for employees who do less than a perfect job. But Marie-Line's bosses are in the midst of a money crunch and they've cut back on her budget, so when several of her employees quit, she has to find new cleaners willing to work for a lower wage. Marie-Line soon finds new workers willing to work hard for low pay, but there's a catch -- most of them are illegal aliens, smuggled into France from Africa, Albania, or the Middle East, and when police begin asking questions about Marie-Line's new cleaners, she has to scramble to cover for them. Marie-Line also discovers that many of her new hires have children they can't afford to leave with sitters or day care, so she finds herself helping to look after the kids, which brings out a compassionate side of her that she has spent much of life trying to keep hidden. Muriel Robin's performance in Marie-Line earned her a Best Actress nomination at the 2001 Cesar Awards (the French Academy Awards). ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A French writer finds his life is once again being turned sideways by his footloose European friends in this sequel to the international hit L'Auberge Espagnole. Five years after we last saw him, Xavier (Romain Duris) has given up his aspirations of a career in international finance, but his new path as a writer isn't going as well as he hoped; his novel about his experiences in Spain has yet to be published, and lately he's been writing scripts for a French soap opera. When his French producers enter into a co-production agreement with a British network and Xavier lands an assignment ghost-writing a tell-all autobiography for famous fashion model Celia Shelburn (Lucy Gordon), he finds himself spending plenty of time traveling between Paris and London. In London, Xavier becomes reacquainted with Wendy (Kelly Reilly), whom he met during his time in Spain, and he wonders if he should take another stab at a relationship with her; Wendy is currently involved, but is increasingly frustrated with her boyfriend's drug problems and mood swings. Xavier is also infatuated with Celia, and wonders if a dalliance with the glamorous model might be possible. Needing romantic advice, Xavier turns to another old friend, Isabelle (Cécile De France), a lesbian who offers her understanding of women as well as a spare bedroom in her flat. Xavier also gets pointers from his ex-girlfriend Martine (Audrey Tautou), who has a child from a former beau and is trying to sort out her own romantic troubles. Russian Dolls (aka Les Poupées Russes) also features Kevin Bishop, reprising his role as William from the first film. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Twenty acclaimed filmmakers from around the world look at love in the City of Lights in this omnibus feature. Paris, Je T'Aime features 18 short stories, each set in a different part of Paris and each featuring a different cast and director (two segments were produced by two filmmakers in collaboration). In "Faubourg Saint-Denis," Tom Tykwer directs Natalie Portman as an American actress who is the object of affection for a blind student (Melchior Belson). Christopher Doyle's "Porte de Choisy" follows a salesman (Barbet Schroeder) as he tries to pitch beauty aids in Chinatown. Nick Nolte and Ludivine Sagnier are father and daughter in "Parc Monceau" from Alfonso Cuarón. Animator Sylvain Chomet turns his eye to a pair of living, breathing mimes in "Tour Eiffel." An interracial romance in France is offered by Gurinder Chadha in "Quais de Seine." In "Le Marais" from Gus Van Sant, a man (Gaspard Ulliel) finds himself falling for a handsome gent (Elias McConnell) who works in a print shop. Isabel Coixet tells the tale of a man (Sergio Castellitto) who is making his final choice between his wife (Miranda Richardson) and his lover (Leonor Watling) in "Bastille." Juliette Binoche plays a grieving mother in Nobuhiro Suwa's "Place des Victoires," in which she's greeted by a spectral cowboy (Willem Dafoe). Richard LaGravanese's "Pigalle" finds a long-married man (Bob Hoskins) turning to a prostitute for advice on pleasing his wife (Fanny Ardant). Gérard Depardieu and Frédéric Auburtin direct Gena Rowlands and Ben Gazzara as longtime marrieds meeting for one final pre-divorce encounter in "Quartier Latin." Steve Buscemi learns a lesson about local etiquette in the Paris Metro in "Tuileries" from Joel and Ethan Coen. In "Loin du 16ème" by Walter Salles, a housekeeper (Catalina Sandino Moreno) longs for her own child as she tends to the infant of her wealthy employer. Elijah Wood stars in "Quartier de la Madeleine," a vampire tale from Vincenzo Natali. Wes Craven presents another fantasy in "Père-Lachaise," in which an engaged young man (Rufus Sewell) receives romantic advice from the spirit of Oscar Wilde (Alex Payne). A postal worker from Colorado (Margo Martindale) shares her thoughts on her visit to Paris in mangled French in Alexander Payne's witty "14th Arrondissement." Other segments include "Place des Fêtes" from Oliver Schmitz, Bruno Podalydès' "Montmartre," and "Quartier des Enfants Rouges" by Olivier Assayas, which stars Maggie Gyllenhaal. Paris, Je T'Aime received its world premiere at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Don't Worry, I'm Fine
The unexpected disappearance of her troubled brother causes a nineteen year-old girl intense emotional distress as French filmmaker Philippe Lioret collaborates with author Oliver Adam to adapt Adam's popular novel for the screen. Upon returning from Barcelona after spending the summer with new friends Lea (Aissa Maiga) and Thomas (Julien Boisselier), Lily (Melanie Laurent) discovers that her twin brother Loic (Mickael Trodoux) has fled the family home following a particularly intense confrontation with family patriarch Paul (Kad Merad). When Loic fails to return Lily's increasingly desperate calls and her parents continually fail to explain the reasoning behind her brother's flight, the troubled girl lapses into an alarming emotional malaise in which she is unable to eat or sleep. Her health rapidly failing, Lily is admitted into a local hospital where she languishes until a letter arrives from her brother condemning the pair's father for ruining their lives. Upon recovering from her malady Lily sets out to locate her brother. It is a quest that will not only provide Lily with a better understanding of her faltering family dynamics, but set her down the path to womanhood as well. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A man tries to hold on to his bachelor lifestyle by getting engaged in this romantic comedy. Luis (Alain Chabat) is a man in his mid-fourties who has been happily unmarried all his life. Luis nearly wed his sweetheart when he was 21, but the meddling of his mother (Bernadette Lafont) and five sisters drove the young lady away, and since then he's devoted his romantic attentions to short-term relationships while earning a good living working in the perfume industry. However, his family remains determined to fix him up with eligible women, and Luis has grown tired of it. With the help of a colleague, Luis concocts a plan -- his friend's daughter Emma (Charlotte Gainsbourg) agrees to pose as his fiancée and then abandon him at the altar, which should silence his mother and sisters on the subject of matrimony once and for all. While Luis and Emma's relationship is all business, she does a flawless job of convincing his family that she loves him and is determined to be his wife -- so much so that Luis wonders if she might be serious about him after all. Directed by Eric Lartigau, Prête-Moi Ta Main (aka I Do) was a major box-office success in France, attracting nearly three million viewers in its first month of release. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Abderrahmane Sissako wrote and directed this offbeat, satiric comedy which imagines how the powers that be in the West might be forced to answer for the damage they've done in the Third World. Mele (Aissa Maiga) is an attractive Malian lounge singer married to Chaka (Tiecoura Traore), though their relationship is on the verge of collapse. In their eyes, the African continent isn't in much better shape than their marriage, and one day a makeshift courtroom appears in the courtyard near their shabby home. In the courtyard, a handful of powerful international organizations, such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, are put on trial for their crippling effect on the African economy; as the evidence is presented which explains how these "friends" of Africa have saddled the nations with debts they can never repay, witnesses explain how these actions impact the daily lives of ordinary citizens, who pass through the trial as they go on with their days. Executive producer Danny Glover makes a cameo appearance in a "Cowboys and Indians" sequence which supposedly takes place in Timbuktu. Bamako (aka The Court) received its North American premiere at the 2006 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Les Insoumis
A lawman infiltrates Paris's criminal underground to bring a gang of killers to justice in this violent thriller. Abel Vargas (Gerald Laroche) is a powerful crime boss who is serving time in prison, and as he's being transferred from one penitentiary to another, his police escort is met by a large band of Vargas's underlings, who attack them with furious violence. When the dust settles, Vargas is a fugitive and a large number of officers are dead. Police detective Vincent Drieu (Richard Berry) is put in charge of the investigation to find Vargas and his henchmen, and after losing patience with his fellow gumshoes, Drieu begins working undercover, hoping to find Vargas's associates by passing as a fellow member of the criminal fraternity. In time Drieu finds a pair of cops who understand his style and working methods, Kathia (Aissa Maiga) and Wazemme (Bernard Blancan), and together they dig deep into the French underground, courting danger as they become friends with the people they intend to put behind bars. Les Insoumis (aka Crossfire) was the first theatrical feature from director Claude Michel Rome, who previously distinguished himself in European television. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Ultrazone Laser Tag might be familiar to fans of The Real World, whose cast members—fed up with drama—blew off steam by ducking colorful laser beams in the sprawling multilevel arena's fog-filled maze. There's enough space for 45 vest-clad players to face off at one time, and plasma monitors let the next wave watch the game as they eagerly await their turn. The expansive recreation center also hosts sleepover parties that grant exclusive overnight use of the laser-tag facilities, the plasma-screen theater, and the room that's inexplicably full of doorknobs. Outside the arena, an arcade keeps synapses ablaze with video games, air hockey, and golf simulators, supplemented with slices of Papa John's pizza from the cafe.
Recently featured in the Washington Times, Gertrude's is a salt-stained bastion of coastal cuisine, with a menu chock-full of Chesapeake classics. Chef and owner John Shields, a nationally acclaimed coastal-fare innovator, author, and crab whisperer, named the restaurant for his grandmother, Gertrude Cleary. Grandma Gertrude's traditional Baltimore crab cake recipe lives on at her namesake restaurant with a dinner order of Gertie's crab cakes ($20), which arrives dressed with a choice of eight sauces, including the Creole or three-mustard. It's served with a choice of sides such as apple and fennel coleslaw, hush puppies, or grilled rosemary potatoes. Other maritime entrees, such as the citrus barbecue shrimp ($24) and the Chesapeake rockfish imperial ($30), recognize each other from the Shark Week extras' green room and happily provide diners fishing for Bay fare authenticity with transcendent catches for immediate consumption. Also available are Gertie's seafood Creole ($24) and locally raised beef burgers ($10).
Presidential dentures, a kid-sized dental chair, and interactive brushing instruction are some of the permanent exhibits spanning the space's two floors. The museum also boasts a life-size narwhal model, an exposé on saliva, and a celebration of our country's best dental schools. This upcoming season, stop in to pay homage to the tooth fairy for Tooth Fairy Day, or get a mouthful of mammals on Jaws and Paws Day. View a listing of upcoming events here.

Mat About You's framing experts, whose work bedecks the walls of the Ritz Carlton, prepare everything from artwork to sports jerseys for eye-pleasing display. They pop pictures into ready-made frames or craft custom frames from their stock of molding to match patrons' aesthetic sensibilities. Staffers also nestle keepsakes into 3D shadow boxes, help restore damaged photographs, and tap into museum-quality conservation techniques to preserve historic documents and sports memorabilia, such as the first tennis ball ever repurposed for a game of fetch.
Mat About You also boasts an on-site gallery stocked with potential frame fodder, such as original art, limited edition giclée reproductions, and open-edition prints. Customers can add extra pizzazz to their home decor thanks to the store's boutique collection, which brims with jewelry, furniture, pottery and ceramics, and garden adornments such as model solar systems to erect around sunflowers.
Originally the residence of U.S. Capitol architect Edward Clark, O Street Museum's five interconnected townhouses today enfold a private club, luxury hotel, conference center, and museum. The O Street Museum explores the creative process with more than 1,500 ever-changing exhibits, including handwritten manuscripts, animation stills, and autographed items from such musicians as Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. Shedding the restraints of a standard museum, O Street grants guests the freedom to leaf through collections of photographs and letters from visual artists or gently cradle sleeping sculptures in their bare hands.
Themed tours for groups or individuals unveil the subtleties of the museum's elegant space, adorned with original, hand-painted ceilings and Tiffany stained-glass windows. Immersive special events include the Raw and Exposed program, which draws from the museum's vast archives as it presents rare recordings from artists such as Janis Joplin and The Beatles. Amateur and seasoned musicians unite on stage during weekly jam sessions, and the SRO concert series fills the museum's intimate space with one-of-a-kind gospel performances, drag shows, and sock-puppet reenactments of the Revolutionary War.
Ford's Theatre, the site of Abraham Lincoln's assassination, preserves Lincoln's legacy by hosting dramatic and historical plays on its legendary stage and educational experiences throughout its halls. The theater presents dramatic works such as Big River and 1776, and the museum displays artifacts from Lincoln's White House and the Civil War, along with the swallows that nested in his distinctive stovepipe hat. Those toting Player memberships are showered with benefits including service-charge-free ticket purchases, gift-shop discounts, and a biannual newsletter subscription. With four complimentary passes in tow, members can take in performances of One Destiny, a theatrical eyewitness account of Lincoln's assassination, as well as educational events throughout the year, such as a lectures by National Parks Service interpreters, who recount tales of the fateful evening.

Inside Huntley Clean Sweep activities • Post Prom photos 35 cents Thursday, April 22^ 1999 The Himtley Famiside 0 1QQQ A Press Publications newspaber m serving the Huntley community v^i Volume 39, Issue 2 Sun shines on Del Webb community Steve Brosinski Press Publications The wave of up to 9,000 new residents began to trickle into Sun City on April 15. A year ago, Del Webb's first northem climate residential community was wide open farmland. Now, the 2,000-acre landscape is dotted with neigh¬ borhood homes and the 77,000- square-foot Prairie Lodge exer¬ cise facility. On Monday, Harry and Gini Leopold became the fourth fam¬ ily of an expected 10 to walk up and tum the keys in their new home in Sun City of Huntley. The Leopolds' two-bedroom 1,650-square-foot ranch on Cold Springs Drive is just up the street from the thoroughfare of Del Webb Boulevard. "Great," Gini said only min¬ utes before the couple sat down for the closing. The Leopolds, who sold thek 2,300-square-foot home in Pala¬ tine, are moving into neighbor¬ hood No. 2, or Essex Trails. Last week, three other fami¬ lies closed on their homes, mak¬ ing history in what will become Huntley's largest residential development. The active senior community will include a restaurant and an 18-hole golf course. The Leopolds' new neighbors, Pat and John Panella, said they heard another golf course was going up across Route 47. Keeping in pace with the active lifestyle, the Leopolds are still working and plan to keep their jobs. Gini Leopold, an aer¬ obics instmctor at Lake Barring¬ ton Shores, said she's willing to work at the Sun City workout facility. "I hope they call me," she said, adding that her husband is an avid golfer. The couple chose Sun City because their two children and five grandchildren live nearby in Algonquin and Crystal Lake. One stipulation for coming here was that the children would stay put. "I told them you can't move," Gini said. "We were going to move to Sun City in Arizona, but this is great. We will be close to our kids." Harry said he's already attended a Village Board meet¬ ing and met Village President James Dhamer "The mayor introduced him¬ self.

Jim Churchill, Del Webb's homeowner orientation repre¬ sentative, said the Leopolds were the fourth family to move in. This begins the first group of a continual stream of closings that will take place for years to come. The three previous cou¬ ples to move in were the Ack- leys, the Vaughns and the Smiths.

Prime sues village over annexation of Buralli property Steve Brosinski Press Publications The bond between Huntley and Prime Group Inc. took a bloy^ last Friday when the Chicago-based developer decid¬ ed to take the village to court over annexation of the Buralli property. Charging the village with violating zoning standards and "uncontrolled growth," the law¬ suit insists the village should not allow the Buralli land to be used for conmiercial development. The suit was filed in McHen¬ ry Court and the village has 30 days to respond. Village Administrator Carl Tomaso said he could not com¬ ment because the village was involved in litigation. "From our standpoint, we have a great relationship with the village..,.but we are concerned with the annexation." Gary J. Skoien Executive vice president, Prime Group, Inc. Prime official Gary J. Skoien said the suit was filed when talks between the village and Prime failed. "From our standpoint, we have a great relationship with the village and we have invested a lot of money in Huntiey. But we are concerned with the annexation," said Skoien, exec¬ utive vice president. Skoien said the village should either nullify the annexation agreement or rezone the proper¬ ty as residential.

Comparing MythTV and XBMC
Information about videos is known as metadata. The metadata includes movie title, runtime, cast, synopsis and a variety of items similar to what is found on IMDB.com or TheMovieDatabase.org. Both applications can retrieve metadata automatically when new files are added to folders, and both allow you to edit this metadata while browsing the collection (Figure 10). XBMC offers multiple configurable sources for metadata on a per-folder basis. MythTV's metadata sources are dependent on configurable scripts, but only one script can be configured, and it applies to all files.
XBMC sets metadata via the context menu. Right-click on any folder to get the menu, and then select Set Content. Choose a source for the metadata, and then run an automated scan. XBMC will let you add a movie that is not found manually, but once you've done this, there is no easy way to remove the entry if it's wrong. In MythVideo, pressing I over a movie in any browse mode will bring up a context menu. From there, you can edit the metadata data, reset it, play the movie or just view more details about the movie.
Once you're past the setup and management, you finally can play your videos. And, this is where the two systems shine. Both offer high-quality playback of files in AVI, MPEG4 and even ISO formats. ISO offers the best viewing, because all of the DVD features are available, including menus and subtitles. Of course, both programs also will play a DVD directly from a local DVD drive. MythVideo plays videos with no embellishments—the full window is the video. XBMC actually can wrap its menus around a playing video and will play a video in a small window while the user browses other features (Figure 12). XBMC also offers the usual media controls on-screen. MythTV uses an on-screen menu, but media controls are supported by keyboard keys without the aid of on-screen controls (Figure 11).
From the user perspective, TV playback under both systems is very similar to video playback. XBMC places TV as another source under its Video feature. MythTV separates videos from TV, although TV recordings still are under the TV function. The main difference between MythTV and XBMC is the way the guide is displayed. MythTV has a built-in guide that is updated by a back-end server (Figure 13). The guide is accessed from the OSD menu while watching live TV or when scheduling a recording.
MythTV can record live TV from any configured hardware. The more TV tuners installed on the back ends, the more sources for recordings. When one tuner is busy recording, another can be used to watch live TV. You can schedule recordings using any of the numerous guide search mechanisms, and you can start recordings while watching a show. You also can view recordings even while it is still recording, as long as some recorded data is available. Recordings are given priorities so that if they conflict and not enough video sources are available, the higher priority gets access to the device.
There is only one way to watch recordings, and MythTV uses a tree structure for finding the recordings. Migrating recordings from MythTV's TV feature to MythVideo requires archiving them first via MythArchive. This is not particularly user-friendly, so keep your expectations low for hanging onto recordings.
XBMC uses a MythTV back end to show live TV. It also uses MythTV's guide information. However, it shows the guide information using the same view types as videos in File mode. XBMC, however, cannot record data. It can play only live TV or view existing video files. It cannot create new video files from live TV.
XBMC as MythTV frontend
I wrote an article about how to best configure XMBC as a MythTV frontend: http://adamhaeder.com/wordpress/2010/01/19/how-to-configure-xbmc-as-a-mythtv-frontend/
XBMC has supported video streaming for years
Dunno where you got the idea that XBMC doesn't support Internet video streaming, it's been supported for ages. Of course, the support for RTMP in the new XBMC 10.x is far better than the old 9.x code. But either way, stating it's not supported is flat wrong.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Description: Dragon Penny Dreadful T-Shirt
The Dragon Penny Dreadful T-Shirt is certainly a standout in terms of appearance, but this brash attitude is also backed by quality and comfort levels that are through the roof. This is mostly courtesy of a high quality cotton build, along with screen graphics that mean this shirt will stay looking great for quite some time. The short sleeves and crew neck style also make it laid back and comfy for everyday use.
