Obama will win, he can relax, says expert US forecaster
www.telegraphindia.com Wed 23 May, 2012
Allan Lichtman introduces "the world's only do-it-yourself prediction" to a select audience in Calcutta.
The prediction model ' based on 13 keys ' forecasts the reelection of Barack Obama in the US presidential election to be held on November 6. To convince the audience, Lichtman took them through all the 13 keys asking them to ascertain if they were true or false. The audience judged 11 out of the 13 keys to be true, a sure shot that Obama would be reelected as six or more keys have to be false for the incumbent President to lose the elections.
Rudrangshu Mukherjee, editor, editorial pages of The Telegraph, moderated the session organised by the American Centre in association with Aspen Institute India.
Question: What is common between Ronald Regan, George HW Bush, William J Clinton, George W Bush and Barack Obama other than they all have been occupants of the White House?
Answer: Allan Lichtman, a US professor of history, has successfully predicted their victory in the Presidential elections since 1984.

And then there's this - In Memoriam: The Old Obama, Who Wanted to Bring People Together
"Even as we speak," he said, "there are those who are preparing to divide us -- the spin masters, the negative ad peddlers, who embrace the politics of anything goes." On May 21, 2012, more than three years after he was sworn into office, Obama confessed at a press conference in his hometown, Chicago, that he had become one of those peddlers.
How could he relax more than he does already? The guy is on permanent vacation!
select audience in Calcutta....????...four mules, 11 beggars, and some guy with a rubber snake mating with an inner tube.
He is right, Obama is a shoo in. Nit becuase he's done a good job or anything. Obama represents the values of most of the people in this country. this is no longer Reagan;s America. This is a Godless nation where the people support abortion, same sex marriages, Atheism, sex changes, promiscuity and many other leftist agendas. This nation has abandoned God and God has in turn abandoned us. This nation has a new God it bows to and his name is Barack 0bama.
We got what we deserved and will continue to get what we deserve when Obama wins in a walk.
And these experts were an audience in Calcutta, who awarded Obama 11 of the 13 keys for victory in the election. We better give up, the election's already decided.
" Don't forget - experts are never wrong. "
I predict that he will, sometime around the first week in November of this year, utter the word "UNEXPECTED"...
AHHHHH sure, ok! LOL!
I have become a self-appointed expert, too. I predicted each of those presidential victories. I am so special!
If he would include the 1980 election I'll bet he chose Carter......well, zero is Carter....he won't win....regardless of what Slumdog electioneer says....
Yes, I think you'd need to travel to India (or some alternative universe) to find an audience that would believe those statements are true. Is he on drugs?
I think it will be a low turnout election for both of the major parties and that the electoral votes will be close. We could have had a sweep, and should have.
I think it will be a low turnout election for both of the major parties and that the electoral votes will be close. We could have had a sweep, and should have.
It should be a sweep but it won't be because we picked a liberal for the Republican candidate so regardless of who wins not much will change. The Republicans were extremely stupid this round because it should have been an easy win and now it won't be.
There is no election on the local, state or national level since 2009 that indicates the nation thinks like Obama and the far left. Their ideas have been repeatedly rejected and the left moving democrat party is darn near extinction in most states.
Allan Lichtman is an obese opera singer?
From wikipedia: On September 28, 2005, Lichtman formally announced his candidacy for the United States Senate from Maryland. He ran as a progressive
nope...doesn't appear to be biased at all....(snicker)
Did those of us who voted against 0bummer in 2008 get what we deserved, and will those of us who vote against him in 2012 deserve what we continue to get?
There are only four "key" questions given in the article, not all 13. Yet Obama is a clear failure on at least three out of four of these, with a chance that the even the single positive "not being in a recession during the election season" could fade between now and the election. GDP growth is now under 2% and still falling. With Europe troubles, it could dip negative by Oct.
I'm with you. NOBODY "deserves" Obama. It's like saying someone "deserves" cancer. BS.
we should all have a job like that
Sadly, I think you are right.
Licthman is a pseudo-intellectual liberal/progressive talking head that probably has a liberal/progressive book he is promoting. What better time to market his drivel than during the run-up to the November elections?
They drag out these people every four years to make propaganda points. And if these people won't do, they'll find some others who will. Always the same story. They could just go to the archives, dig up the stories, change the names and print it word for word and we'd never know the difference. It's a standard propaganda template, doncha know.
If you think there was a panic run on guns and ammunition in November and December of
2008 imagine what it will be like if this prediction comes to pass this November.
"Licthman is a pseudo-intellectual liberal/progressive "
Call them what they are...Marxist/Leninist/Communist
I'd like to become an "expert" too. It sounds like such an easy job.
Most liberal jobs consist of BSing stuff, like jobs in mass media.
Conservative jobs actually involve building things(engineering) or creating wealth(business).
I tend to agree with you... this country is far, far different than the America of the Reagan era. It elected Obama once and unfortunately will do so again. If he had a viable opponent, things might be different, but... they aren`t.
I hope he's wrong, but the guy could be right.
I have long said that the very moment that Romney becomes the nominee, Obama wins another 4 years.
Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again. ~ Ronald Reagan, from his first inaugural speech as governor of California, January 5, 1967
Ronald Reagans warning about losing our freedoms echoes down through a generation of lost momentum and squandered opportunity.
We now have the most ignorant electorate in the history of American elections. I believe we have the most corrupt government and media our country has ever seen.
There are tens of millions of Americans that no longer believe in or desire freedom.
There are tens of millions of Americans that believe that the government should take your money..... and give it to them.
There are tens of millions of Americans that have no idea what it means to be an American.
Americans will get the country it apparently wants, the country it is willing to work for...... and a country it so richly deserves.
But hey, maybe we will get lucky.
Does not matter if he wins or lose; the problem we have is his ideology is alive and well in this country.
This negativism is not helping at all.
If you don't get out and vote for ABO, preferably someone with a chance to WIN, you are part of the problem and a victim of yourself.
Let's hope your prophecies aren't self-fulfilling.
It's not the votes that count, it's who counts the votes.
You obviously didn't read the article.
took place in Calcutta, Arkansas. just over the line from Toad Suck Ferry, Ark.
"Did those of us who voted against 0bummer in 2008 get what we deserved, and will those of us who vote against him in 2012 deserve what we continue to get?"
No, but we are the minority and we have suffer because of the majority
The media will be pushing polls that say things will be close through mid Oct. I think it is likely that then things will break very hard one way or another. I think in Romney's direction is the most likely, but anything is possible, even the improbable (Ron Paul engineers a convention upset?). Depending on how epic the vote fraud is, we could see either a tight electoral college or a wipeout (NJ goes R?).
Here are Lichtman's 13 Keys, along with my personal assessment for whatever it's worth:
The Keys are statements that favor the re election of the incumbent party. When five or fewer statements are false, the incumbent party wins. When six or more are false, the challenging party wins.
False: The Rats lost their a$$ in the midterms, and have lost a number of special elections since.
False: Although nobody is running against the Bumbler, attendance his campaign rallies have dropped off significantly even with bussed in paid crowds, and he has lost over 40 percent of the vote to "none of the above" and a convicted felon sitting in a Federal pen.
True: Score one for the Wee Wee.
True: Score another one for the Wee Wee.
False: The economy has tanked throughout his term and shows no sign of improvement now, even with cooked up statistics.
False: As mentioned above, the economy is a disaster and is getting worse.
False: The Idiot did get ObamaCare through Congress, and he has made policy statements such as support of Gay Marriage, but they are not the kind of things that win votes. Other than that, the Moron can't even get Congress to pass a budget - even when he had a majority in both chambers.
Sort of True: Other than Occupy Wall Street, rampant Black on White violence, rampant illegal immigration, and disastrous unemployment, peace reigns supreme.
False: Fast and Furious among many others. Not as bad as the Clinton's, but who is?
Sort of True: Lost most of the Arab world to radicals, bumbling in Afghanistan, bows and scrapes to the Saudi King and the Japanese Emperor, but who cares.
True: Single-handedly killed Osama ... and would have done it sooner had those darn SEALS had not got in the way.
False: Outside of Hollyweird and the Beltway, he has about as much appeal as a dirty diaper ... for pretty much the same reason. Fellow Rat politicians don't want to be caught dead with his campaign support. And that dog of a wife who makes a constant spectacle of herself by wearing expensive designer duds (made out of upholstery fabric), flaunting herself on junkets, preaching against junk food, and acting like an idiot on TV yak shows further diminishes his likability quotent.
True: Mutt is about as exciting as a tree stump

Prediction: Romney Crushes Obama In Presidential Election Blowout
http://www.forbes.com | 5/22/2012 | Bill Frezza
Posted on 05/24/2012 12:11:48 PM PDT by BO Stinkss
LOL, you think it will be a low turnout election?
Gallup has 87% of Republicans backing Romney already and he hasn't even begun to campaign, his fund raising rivals Obama's, none of the slime thrown at Romney sticks and in fact it backfires and enthusiasm among Rep is at record levels.
Surely you aren't basing your low turnout projection on claims of a few people here on FR who essentially say they are taking their football and going home because their candidate lost in the primary?
If not then what are you basing it on?
Does he do his thing in Calcutta, India because he's a world-wide celebrity? No, he probably goes there simply because he can't get a gig in the United States, not even on lefty outlets like CNN or MSNBC.
They always trot out this creep every 4 years. A commie no more or less.
Time to wake the dead so they can vote for Obama.
LOL, yes LOL.
Because LOL this is more like 2006 and 2008 than 2010 LOL.
So, LOL, I think you run a republican candidate to the left of Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton you get a low turnout LOL.
Thanks for the ping!
Not even close
So, LOL, I think you run a republican candidate to the left of Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton you get a low turnout LOL. Put down the bong, pal. you're just another bitter Romney hater and it has badly affected your judgement (LOL).
"you're just another bitter Romney hater"
"Just another'. Indeed, there is a trend there. Lets just say I wish him, his and his supporters as much joy and success as he wished for the 'gentile' unborn in Massachusetts.
"and it has badly affected your judgement"
On the contrary this election cycle has clarified my judgement. The GOP is not my party, and I am done wasting money, time, effort and support on it. It is good to know one's enemies, and the Punch & Judy uni-party in Washington is mine.
"Put down the bong, pal."
Get off your knees, lackey.
Yeah, Chris Matthews is going to be jealouse as hell. He considers that part of obamas personal property. And is trying to wear it out.
Obama, you are such a cinch for the 2012 election, I wouldn't even bother campaigning. Remember, there's a golf swing to improve!

What to do when open source is not good enough
The obvious answer is "Use something else." Some, however, don't like simple answers to obvious questions, so I'm now going to spend 1,000 words or so saying, "Use something else." You have been warned...
For a variety of reasons, I've been thinking lately about what to do when open-source software is not good enough for a given set of needs/requirements. There are some who believe that we should use open-source software, even if it's rubbish. I'm not among that group.
Fortunately, this is less and less an issue as open-source software becomes better--even superior, in a growing number of instances--to proprietary software. I use Adium (open-source instant messaging application) because it's better than Apple's iChat (though I turn to iChat when I want to do video chat because, well, Adium doesn't offer this feature). I use NeoOffice (OpenOffice for the Mac) increasingly because I actually prefer its presentation program to Microsoft's PowerPoint, but I have to head back to PowerPoint when I want to embed video in a presentation.
And so on.
For those who think that open source is something to impose, I disagree. I believe that open source can carry its own arguments. When it can't, I don't use it, but hope for people to come along who will fill the void. They almost always do.… Read more

Red Corner, Plazuela, Iloilo
So last week Poch and I decided to finally go to Red Corner in Plazuela. It was awesome but at bad timing because I had left my camera at our apartment (in our university, which is an hour and a half away from the city, where everything relevant is), so I had to make do with my crappy phone camera (for all its innovations and features Blackberry decides to hold out on a good camera). Red Corner is basically affordable Chinese food, which is just great because 'affordable' and 'Chinese food' are just some of my most favourite words in the world.
This was the PAN FRIED TENDERLOIN CHINESE STYLE. It was good but nothing substantial about it. It's basically pan fried beef in some sort of Oriental-y sauce (?).
This was the HOT PRAWN SALAD, which was just ineffably delicious and left the both of us craving for it for the rest of the week. It's basically a cold salad (cabbage, pineapple and some other bits I forgot) coupled with bite-sized hot prawn topped with a sweet sauce (mayonnaise-y) and sesame seeds. I don't know why there's a cherry because it served no purpose (cherries never do—I don't like cherries).
The problem with Red Corner is that holy crap they've got big servings. Well, probably they've got average-sized servings but we suspected that the Hot Prawn Salad was to blame for getting us full within probably the first fifteen minutes of our meal. Either way we're not going back to Red Corner unless we have at least one other person with us to help us finish the meal. It was really tough, you know. At one point I got up and walked around the restaurant for a bit just so I could 'burn' some of what I ate and be able to finish my food.
So that was our experience at Red Corner. Chinese food is hella awesome.

Category: Banjo Patterson
Australian Baby Names: Focus on Banjo
By Anna Otto of Waltzing More Than Matilda
February 17th is the birthdate of Andrew Barton Paterson, affectionately known as "Banjo" Paterson. He was named Andrew after his Scottish-born father, and his middle name Barton was a family name from his mother's side; he was related to Edmund Barton, who would later become Australia's first prime minister. Because he and his dad had the same name, Paterson went by his middle name, and was always known as Barty to his friends and family.
Paterson lived with his grandmother while he was attending the prestigious Sydney Grammar School, and she encouraged in him a love of poetry. He was 21 when he first began submitting poems to The Bulletin, under the pseudonym of "The Banjo" (sometimes shortened to a simple "B"). Full of fierce nationalism and a desire for a fairer society, he had some aspirations to write fiery polemic, and had even written a political pamphlet. However, The Bulletin had other ideas.
In the late nineteenth century, there was a movement towards the British colonies of Australia becoming one country, a feeling that Australia should be a united nation, and Australians a united people. In the effort to provide Australia with a unifying mythology that would instill nationalistic pride, it seemed that the Australian bush and outback would be the symbol to draw everyone together.

An international collaboration between the University of Michigan and Fraunhofer addresses the increasing global demand for more efficient and sustainable technologies for transportation.
The Alternative Energy Technologies for Transportation (AETT) program has awarded $2 million in seed grants for five projects. All proposals were peer-reviewed and judged on originality, scientific visibility and possible economic impact by U-M's Michigan Memorial Phoenix Energy Institute and Fraunhofer, together with U-M's Office of the Vice President for Research.
Each project also was judged on its potential to secure external funding or commercialization at the end of the two-year project phase. Each team has scientists from both the U-M and Fraunhofer.
"We are very proud that our two calls for proposals were answered by most excellent faculty, engineers, and researchers at both U-M and Fraunhofer," said Anke Hellwig of Fraunhofer, AETT program co-director. "Their research plans demonstrate a high synergy between the two units and, therefore, reiterate our motivation to leverage this transatlantic initiative."
Most recipients of the AETT seed grants are working on the key technological issue of future mobility and transportation—the storage of electric energy. State-of-the-art components (as Li-batteries, yellow in fig.) need to be refined and further advanced before they can be integrated in serial production of electric vehicles. AETT researchers are tackling the charge/discharge efficiency, safety, and life-cycle of such batteries, as well as the design of supercapacitors and redox flow batteries.
"This landmark partnership is on the road to moving crucial research discoveries from the laboratories to a vital industry in search of transformation towards sustainability," said Dennis Assanis, director of the U-M Energy Institute and AETT program co-director. "Not only is this international collaboration advancing transportation energy technology, it's also building an exciting, close-knit scientific network."
The projects (more detail can be found by clicking on each project title):
High speed laser cutting of electrodes for lithium-ion batteries
Development of advanced high speed remote cutting technology to enhance the reliability, safety, and life cycle of lithium-ion batteries.
- Jyoti Mazumder, University of Michigan, Mechanical Engineering
- Jens Tuebke, Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology
Non-aqueous redox flow batteries
Design of non-aqueous redox flow batteries with significantly increased energy and power density and charge/discharge efficiency relative to state-of-the-art aqueous models.
- Charles Monroe, University of Michigan, Chemical Engineering
- Christian Doetsch, Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology
Integration of high surface area carbide/nitrides with 3D metal foams for high performance supercapacitors
Design of a high-performance supercapacitor prototype by integrating high-surface area carbide/nitrides with 3-D metal foams.

Doro Merande Movies
Orphaned as a child, Kansan Doro Merande grew up in boarding schools. She was in her early twenties when she impulsively decided to become a New York actress. Her skinny frame and wavering voice making her ideal for rural character roles, Doro went on to appear in 25 Broadway plays, most famously as the old lady who "loved weddings" in the original 1938 production of Our Town. This was the part that brought her to Hollywood in 1940. Though she preferred to remain in New York, Doro was seen in dozens of Hollywood-based TV and movie character roles, including the loudmouthed housekeeper in The Gazebo (1959) and the strident "victim" of Soviet "invaders" in The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming (1966). In 1960, Doro was one of the stars of the TV sitcom Bringing up Buddy; reportedly, all chances for this series' success were sabotaged by the fact that Ms. Merande and her co-star, silent film veteran Enid Markey, openly despised one another. In her last professional years, Doro Merande was a frequent guest star of
The Jackie Gleason Show

Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Mrs. Herman and Mrs. Fenimore
Mrs. Herman (Doro Merande) is the landlady of actress Mrs. Fenimore (Mary Astor). Both ladies are in dire need of quick money -- and thus, when Mrs. Herman hatches a scheme to murder her wealthy uncle Bill (Russell Collins), Mrs. Fenimore agrees to help her for a share of the inheritance. As things turn out, however, one of the two ladies is a bit quicker on the uptake than the other...and she's the one who ends up with all the cash. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Bringing Up Buddy [TV Series]
The typical roles played by adults and children in sitcoms underwent a dramatic and stunning reversal in this one-season CBS series. Frank Aletter starred as Buddy Flower, a responsible, reliable and intelligent young man in his early 30s who worked as an investment counselor. His home life, however, was something else - he lived with two childlike and thoroughly daffy maiden aunts, Aunt Iris Flower (Doro Merande) and Aunt Violet Flower (Enid Markey). Though sweet natured, the women added an endless series of wacky complications to Buddy's life; typical situations had them attempting to make some dramatic change to the young man's lifestyle (such as presenting him with any one of several "perfect girls" to marry) or putting themselves in impossible circumstances from which Buddy had to liberate them. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Dr. John Carpenter (Elvis Presley) helps the economically disadvantaged in an inner-city medical clinic. Three nuns are assigned to help out at the facility and are allowed to wear regular clothes instead of the traditional habits. Sister Michelle (Mary Tyler Moore) is the speech therapist who Dr. Carpenter would like to examine personally after hours. Along with the other sisters (Barbara McNair and Jane Elliot), Michelle is subjected to the criticism of the local parish priest (Regis Toomey) in the social experiment of non-traditional dress. Two spinsters even mistake the nuns for prostitutes without their habits. The priest wins out in the end, and the nuns must again don their habits. As the good doctor sings to the ailing children, Sister Michelle is transfixed both by a crucifix hanging on the wall and by Elvis Presley in an ironic and symbolic scene that flashes between the two icons. This was Presley's last studio feature and he welcomed the move from stifling screen images as he returned his focus to live performances and recording for the remainder of his illustrious career. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

Otto Preminger directed this star-studded adaptation of K.B. Gliden's novel about racial prejudice and emotional unrest in the Deep South. Henry Warren (Michael Caine) is a land owner obsessed with buying up all available land in a Georgia farming town. However, two parcels of land have escaped his reach, and he's determined to get them. The Scotts, an African-American family, own one of the lots that Henry is after; the matriarch of the family, Rose (Beah Richards), used to work as a servant for the family of Henry's wife, Julie Ann (Jane Fonda), so Henry sends Julie Ann to talk with her. However, not only doesn't Rose agree to sell, she gets so upset that she dies of a heart attack, and soon her headstrong son Reeve (Robert Hooks) is the owner of the land. Reeve refuses all of Henry's offers to sell out, and he even stands up to a racist lynch mob that tries to ransack his farm; when Henry attempts to prove that Reeve holds no legal deed to the property, Vivian Thurlow (Diahann Carroll), the town's black schoolmarm, is able to provide the documentation that the Scotts do indeed own their land. Meanwhile, Henry is also trying to buy some property farmed by Rod McDowell (John Phillip Law) and his wife Lou (Faye Dunnaway), a poor white couple who are Henry's cousins. The McDowell farm adjoins that owned by the Scotts, so Reeve and Rod agree to join forces against Henry, which leads to violent reprisals against them. While set in Georgia, Hurry Sundown was actually shot on location in Louisiana; it was the first film shot in the South with an integrated cast and crew, leading the producers to demand protection from State Troopers after members of the company received death threats. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Add Kiss Me, Stupid! to top of Queue
Dean Martin stars in this once-controversial comedy as Dino, a Las Vegas crooner, alcoholic, and celebrity playboy. Dino requires women like oxygen -- a companionless night leaves him with a headache. Ray Walston is Orville, a provincial piano teacher, aspiring songwriter, and jealous husband. Orville violently obsesses over his wife Zelda's (Felicia Farr) fidelity -- any man she encounters becomes his sworn enemy. When a chance detour brings Dino to Orville's hometown of Climax, NV, it is the perfect opportunity for the piano teacher and his songwriting partner, Barney (Cliff Osmond), to pitch their tunes. Yet, Orville predictably fears the possible combination of Dino's libido with Zelda's childhood crush on the singer. Before the two can meet, Orville deceitfully bullies Zelda out of their house and Barney hires local roadhouse prostitute Polly the Pistol (Kim Novak) to pose as Orville's wife. Zelda turns to drink for solace, ending up at the exact bar where Polly plies her trade and, eventually, in the call girl's empty trailer. By the next morning, Orville is with Polly and Dino (looking for a prostitute) finds his way to Zelda -- and husband, wife, hooker, and Barney will all reap the benefits of infidelity.
As indicated, this picture (which endured numerous complications on its long journey to the screen, including Walston's replacement of ailing star Peter Sellers) drew a great deal of attention upon release, most of it overwhelmingly negative. The Catholic League of Decency gave it a "condemned" rating (the first one applied since the 1956 Baby Doll), the picture was charged with debauchery, and movie theaters across the nation discontinued its run. This bed-trick comedy had America's panties tied in a knot, with many arguing that one could not imagine a story so distasteful. As a reflection on changing mores and standards, though, it was rated GP in 1970 (eventually changed to PG-13 in 1994). ~ Aubry Anne D'Arminio, Rovi

Making it
In the life of sexually successful young high-school student Phil Fuller (Kristoffer Tabori) the episodes in this story enable him to gain increased maturity and understanding. Phil is attracted to his gym teacher's beautiful wife who has a phobia about growing old and who eventually takes him to her bed. The boy also has a girlfriend with a late period, so he gallantly arranges for an abortion for her. When they discover she is not actually pregnant, he finds out that his mother (Joyce Van Patten) is seeking an abortion. Though he and she were not on very good terms, he stands by her throughout the whole ordeal (not entirely by choice) and wins her friendship. The story is broadly based on a novel by James Leigh. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Mr. Belvedere Rings the Bell
Robert E. McEnroe's whimsical Broadway play The Silver Whistle was adapted to suit the talents of Clifton Webb in Mr. Belvedere Rings the Bell. It all begins when "super genius" Lynn Belvedere (Webb) briefly halts a lecture tour to bring some happiness into the lives of a gloomy senior citizens' home. To gain entry into the establishment, the virile, fiftysomething Belvedere claims to be 77 years old. The rest of the inmates are invigorated by the presence of so youthful a "septuagenarian," and before long everyone has taken a new lease on life. Belvedere also finds time to smooth the romantic path for Reverend Watson (Hugh Marlowe) and his fiancée Miss Tripp (Joanne Dru). When Mr. Belvedere's subterfuge is found out, the residents are momentarily dismayed, until they realize all the good their visitor has done. With Clifton Webb in charge (and with an able assist by supporting player Zero Mostel as Belvedere's business manager), Mr. Belvedere Rings the Bell is never as treacly or maudlin as it might be under different circumstances. Future Ward Cleaver Hugh Beaumont shows up unbilled as a cop in the opening scene. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer Prize-winning play Our Town is given the Hollywood treatment in this adaptation directed by Sam Wood featuring an evocative score by Aaron Copland and outstanding production design by William Cameron Menzies. Frank Craven is Mr. Morgan, the narrator and our guide through the small town of Grover's Corners in the more innocent American times of 1901, 1904, and 1913. Mr. Morgan chronicles the lives of a handful of Grover's Corners citizens, centering upon Emily Webb (Martha Scott), the daughter of the local newspaper editor (Guy Kibbee), and George Gibbs (William Holden), the son of the local doctor (Thomas Mitchell). Emily and George fall in love and the film details their difficult courtship, marriage, and tragic childbirth. The film was nominated for a Best Picture Oscar, losing out to Rebecca. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Producer and director Otto Preminger reportedly experimented with LSD in the late 60's, which inspired him to make this notorious comedy in which Jackie Gleason plays Tony, a mid-level gangster and former hired killer not very happy with his life. He bickers a lot with his wife Flo (Carol Channing) and isn't sure what to make of his daughter Darlene (Alexandra Hay), especially since she started dating a hippie named Stash (John Phillip Law). Two of Tony's superiors, Angie (Frankie Avalon) and Hechy (Cesar Romero), order him to get arrested, go to prison and once behind bars whack "Blue Chips" Packard (Mickey Rooney). Though he's not pleased with the idea, Tony grudgingly goes along, but once inside, he's accidentally dosed with LSD by counterculture activist the Professor (Austin Pendleton). His consciousness expanded by his trip, Tony leaves his violent lifestyle behind him and with the Professor's help plans an escape after turning the entire prison population on to acid. Certainly your only opportunity to see Groucho Marx play a character named "God," not to mention a supporting cast that includes Slim Pickens, Peter Lawford, George Raft, Frank Gorshin and Arnold Stang, Skidoo is also remembered as the film in which Harry Nilsson sang all the credits. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

State Fair
The 1933 State Fair was the first of three film versions of the Phillip Stong bestseller. Some consider it the best of the three because of its stricter adherence to the source material and the presence of star Will Rogers. Rogers plays Abel Frake, patriarch of a family whose individual members are affected by the upcoming Iowa State Fair in various fascinating ways. Abel hopes to enter his prize hog Blue Boy and win the blue ribbon. His wife Melissa (Louise Dresser) wants to enter her mincemeat in a food competition, his son Wayne (Norman Foster) wants to get even with a carnival sharpster who'd outsmarted him during the last state fair, and daughter Margery (Janet Gaynor) just wants to get out of the house for a little fun. The parents win their prizes (though it looks for a while that Blue Boy will succumb to a serious illness) the children have brief romances (one happy, one cautionary), and everyone goes home a little wiser for the experience. Footnote: Fox studios offered to butcher Blue Boy and sell his meat to Will Rogers, but Rogers declined, noting that he wouldn't feel right eating his costar. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This third film version of the 1928 Ben Hecht/Charlie MacArthur Broadway hit The Front Page was the first one permitted to utilize all the salty profanities in the original play. Director Billy Wilder cast his two favorite leading men, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, as ace reporter Hildy Johnson and ruthless newspaper editor Walter Burns, respectively. The plot of the Hecht/MacArthur play remains intact: Burns pulls every underhanded game in the book to prevent Johnson from leaving his Chicago paper to get married, and in so doing the two journalists uncover a cesspool of political corruption, centered around the planned execution of anarchist Earl Williams (Austin Pendleton). Carol Burnett has an extended cameo as Williams' tart girlfriend, Mollie Malloy. The Front Page was remade for a fourth time in 1988 as Switching Channels. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Gazebo
Any murder mystery featuring a pigeon named Herman can be trusted to offer more mirth than mayhem and that is the case with this upbeat film by director George Marshall. Glenn Ford stars as Elliott Nash, a television playwright married to Nell (Debbie Reynolds), a successful Broadway thespian. Nell had an ignominious moment in her past when she posed for some photos best left in obscurity and now Elliott is being blackmailed by the owner of the photos. Elliot's solution is to carry out a carefully executed murder and then bury the body underneath a gazebo being constructed in the backyard. Although the dastardly deed goes off without a hitch, the body of the blackmailer turns up elsewhere, leaving Elliott to track down who it was he buried under the gazebo. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

When Otto Preminger was willing to release his drug-addiction drama Man With the Golden Arm without the sanction of a Production Code seal, it proved to be yet another nail in the coffin of that censorial dinosaur. Based on the novel by Nelson Algren, the film stars Frank Sinatra as Frankie Machine, expert card dealer (hence the title). Recently released from prison, Frankie is determined to set his life in order -- and that means divesting himself of his drug habit. He dreams of becoming a jazz drummer, but his greedy wife Eleanor Parker wants him to continue his lucrative gambling activities. Since Parker is confined to a wheelchair as a result of a car accident caused by Frankie, he's in no position to refuse. Only the audience knows that Parker is not crippled, but is faking her invalid status to keep Frankie under her thumb. Gambling boss Robert Strauss wants Frankie to deal at a high-stakes poker game; terrified that he's lost his touch, Frankie asks dope pusher Darren McGavin to supply him with narcotics. When McGavin discovers that Parker is not an invalid, she kills him, and Frankie (who is elsewhere at the time) is accused of the murder. He is willing to go to the cops, but he doesn't want to show up with drugs in his system. So with the help of sympathetic B-girl Kim Novak, Sinatra locks himself up and goes "cold turkey"-a still-harrowing sequence, despite the glut of "doper" films that followed in the wake of this picture. After Parker herself is killed in a suicidal fall, the path is cleared for Frankie to pursue a clean new life with Novak. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Remarkable Mr. Pennypacker
Based on a successful stage play, The Remarkable Mr. Pennypacker loses in this adaptation to film by becoming more serious than an all-out farce. The setting is the end of the 1800s and the intrepid Pennypacker (Clifton Webb) runs a sausage company with two thriving plants in Philadelphia and Harrisburg. He shuttles back and forth between the cities and with equal aplomb, between two households. He maintains one wife (Dorothy McGuire) and eight children in one city, and another wife (Jill St. John) and nine children in the other. When one of the Mrs. Pennypackers finds out about his deception, the unruffled businessman sees no reason for her emotional reaction. Victorian inhibitions and rigidities are set against ultra-modern thinking, embodied in the people the bigamist admires -- like Darwin, the feminists (!), and free-thinkers. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Just because The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming was vastly overrated by contemporary critics does not make it any less amusing. The story gets under way when a Soviet submarine accidently gets lodged in a sandbar on the coast of a New England town. In his feature film debut, Alan Arkin plays the sub's second-in-command, who is ordered by commander Theodore Bikel to free up the sub and skeedaddle before an international incident erupts. Hoping to secure a power boat to tug the sub out to sea, Arkin and his men call upon vacationing TV writer Carl Reiner, passing themselves off as Norwegians. When this ruse fails, Arkin is reluctantly compelled to force Reiner at gunpoint to fetch his motorboat, while gentle-natured Russian sailor John Philip Law is left behind to guard Reiner's wife Eva Marie Saint and pretty neighbor girl Andrea Dromm (yes, love blooms). The plot thickens when the locals, notably bullnecked sheriff Brian Keith and superpatriot Paul Ford, spread the word that the Russians have "invaded" their little community. Several slapstick complications later, the Russians and the locals face each other down in the center of the village, weapons at the ready. Fortunately, World War 3 is averted when the Russians and the villagers band together to rescue young Johnny Whittaker from falling to his doom. Enormously popular upon its first release, The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming still works on a slick sitcom level. The film was based on a novel by Nathaniel Benchley, the son of humorist Robert Benchley and the father of Jaws author Peter Benchley. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Like thousands of other Manhattanites, Tom Ewell annually packs his wife (Evelyn Keyes) and children off to summer vacation, staying behind to work at the office. This particular summer, the lonely Ewell begins fantasizing about the many women he'd foresworn upon getting married (in one of the fantasies, Ewell and Marguerite Chapman parody the beach rendezvous in From Here to Eternity). He is jolted back to reality when he meets his new neighbor--luscious model Marilyn Monroe. Inviting Monroe to dinner, Ewell intends to sweep her off her feet and into the boudoir. Things don't quite work out that way, thanks to Ewell's clumsiness (and essential decency) and Monroe's naivete. Still, Ewell becomes convinced that his impure thoughts will somehow be transmitted to his vacationing wife and to the rest of the world, leaving him wide open for scandal and ruination. In the original play, the husband and the next-door neighbor did have an affair, but both play and film arrived at the same happy ending, with Ewell and his missus contentedly reunited at summer's end. Featured in the cast of The Seven Year Itch are Robert Strauss as a lascivious handyman, Sonny Tufts as Evelyn Keye's former beau, Donald MacBride as Ewell's glad-handing boss, and veteran Broadway funny man Victor Moore in a cameo as a nervous plumber. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Star Maker
The Star Maker is the story (with variations) of vaudeville enterpreneur Gus Edwards, here played by Bing Crosby. Determining that he can attain the uppermost showbiz rungs by spotlighting new, untried talents, Edwards rises to fame by hiring preteen boys and girls for his touring acts, the most famous of which is his "schoolroom" routine. Among Edwards' more prominent discoveries were Eddie Cantor, Georgie Jessel, Bert Wheeler, Walter Winchell and Mae Murray, none of whom are depicting in the film (though composer Walter Damrosch is portrayed "By Himself"). Paramount intended The Star Maker as a showcase for a whole new crop of "stars in the making", though the studio's own discoveries were destined for obscurity--with the exception of Janet Waldo, who in 1997 was still providing the voice of Judy Jetson for a series of TV commercials. Louise Campbell provides the nominal romantic interest as Edwards' super-supportive wife, while a welcome note of cynicism is introduced by the ineffable Ned Sparks. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Twilight Zone: The Bard
Former streetcar conductor Julius Moomer (Jack Weston) aspires to be a highly paid TV writer, but he is handicapped by a severe talent deficiency. Julius' fortunes take a sudden upswing when, practicing a bit of black magic in his tiny apartment, he conjures up the ghost of William Shakespeare (John Williams). Unfortunately, not even Shakespeare's brilliance is any match for the formidability of bullheaded TV sponsors and network censors. A young Burt Reynolds steals the show as Brandoesque actor Rocky Rhodes, while star Jack Weston's wife Marge Redmond appears in a supporting role. Written by Rod Serling, "The Bard" was the last of the hour-long Twilight Zone episodes to be telecast; it first aired May 23, 1963. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Whistle at Eaton Falls
Produced by "March of Time" maven Louis de Rochemont, Whistle at Eaton Falls is docudrama concerning a labor dispute in a small New Hampshire town. Union leader Lloyd Bridges is reluctantly promoted to the presidency of Eaton Falls' plastics plant. Now in a management position, Bridges must lay off several of his old friends in order to cut down costs. He tries to do this as painlessly as possible, but his union-boss successor Murray Hamilton public derides Bridges' methods. The potent problems posed by the film are solved in too-slick Hollywood fashion when the plant is saved by a huge government contract and the introduction of cost-efficient machinery. Dorothy Gish makes one of her rare talking-picture appearances as the widow of the plant's former owner in Whistle at Eaton Falls, and if you look closely you'll spot Lloyd Bridges' infant son Jeff in his movie debut. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Left Hand bat
After breaking into the Test side in 2012, Matthew Wade now finds himself on the fringes of national selection.
With Brad Haddin back in the side as Michael Clarke's deputy, the 26 year old will need to rediscover the form that got him there in the first place.
A talented player all his life, Wade earned his first international cap for the T20 side on the back of outstanding domestic form for Victoria.
Wade finally got his chance to debut at Test level when Australia travelled to the West Indies. It was a terrific tour for the keeper, whose 106 was the only century scored by an Australian all series.
Wade backed up his breakthrough ton with 68* against South Africa, and another 68 against the touring Sri Lankans.
An unbeaten century against Sri Lanka looked to have cemented his spot in the Test side, but an unflattering tour of India forced selectors to recall Haddin.
His form in ODI's and T20 has been solid, with the Victorian excelling for both state and country. Able to bat anywhere in the order, Wade is a valuable asset to have no matter the situation.
With six first-class hundred to his name, Wade will need to knuckle down for the Bushrangers if he wants to steal back his spot in the side.
He has already shown what he can do on the domestic scene, with season tallies of 677 and 553 in the Shield, while also finishing second leading run getter in the Ryobi Cup.
The dashing batsman probably needs to grind out a couple of meaningful knocks if he wants to remind selectors of his worth.
With 254 first-class dismissals to his name, Wade is no slouch behind the stumps. He already has 36 in Tests, 44 in ODI's and 10 in t20's.
Currently on tour with the Australia A squad, Wade knows that consistency is the only way he can win back his coveted Test spot.

Subject: | Business Opportunity Rule |
Title: | Notice of Proposed Rulemaking |
CFR Citation: | 16 CFR Part 437 |
No Attachments |
Dear Sir or Madam: I am writing this letter because I am concerned about the proposed Business Opportunity Rule R511993. I believe that in its present form, it could prevent me from continuing as a Take Shape for Life Health Advisor. I understand that part of the FTC's responsibilities is to protect the public from "unfair and deceptive acts or practices," but some of the sections in the proposed rule will make it very difficult if not impossible for me to sell Take Shape for Life products. The proposed rule calls for the release of any information regarding lawsuits involving misrepresentation, or unfair or deceptive practices. It does not matter if the company was found innocent. Today, anyone or any company can be sued for almost anything. It does not make sense to me that I would have to disclose these lawsuits unless Take Shape for Life is found guilty. Otherwise, Take Shape for Life and I are put at an unfair advantage even though Take Shape for Life has done nothing wrong. Finally, the proposed rule requires the disclosure of a minimum of 10 prior purchasers nearest to the prospective purchaser. I am glad to provide references, but in this day of identity theft, I am very uncomfortable giving out the personal information of individuals (without their approval) to strangers. Also, giving away this information could damage the business relationship of the references who may be involved in other companies or businesses including those of competitors. In order to get the list of the 10 prior purchasers, I will need to send the address of the prospective purchaser to Take Shape for Life headquarters and then wait for the list. I also think the following sentence required by the proposed rule will prevent many people from wanting to sign up as a salesperson "If you buy a business opportunity from the seller, your contact information can be disclosed in the future to other buyers." People are very concerned about their privacy and identity theft. They will be reluctant to share their personal information with individuals they may have never met. I have been a Take Shape for Life Health Advisor for almost a year. Originally, I became a Take Shape for Life Health Advisor because I like the products and wanted to earn some additional money. Now my family depends on this extra income to supplement our budget. I appreciate the work of the FTC to protect consumers, but I believe this proposed new rule has many unintended consequences and that there are less burdensome alternatives available in achieving its goals. Thank you for your time in considering my comments. Sincerely, Karen Behar

Mini twistable crayons with new special effects. Sturdy barrels resist breaking. Crayons never need sharpening. Reusable storage pouch. Contains metallic, neon and rainbow crayons. From its earliest beginnings, Crayola has been a color company. Crayola came into being when cousins Edwin Binney and C. Harold Smith took over Edwin's father's pigment business in 1885. More than 120 years later, color - along with creativity, learning and most of all, fun - is the hallmark of Crayola's company. Crayola has called Easton, Pennsylvania its home since the early 1900s. Today, the Crayola's world headquarters and major manufacturing facilities are located there. And downtown Easton is the home of The Crayola FACTORY, a one-of-a-kind celebration of creative fun for everyone. In 1984, Crayola became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hallmark Cards and has since Crayola has played the lead role in Hallmark's personal development strategies.

I was not expecting to be impressed by these, but I was! I am glad I finally found the perfect crayons for my 2 and 3 year olds. I bought dozens of different crayons for my kids before, and these are by far the best. You do not have to rip off the paper like with regular crayons, because these are twistables. They are also harder than regular crayons, making it difficult to breaks these (my kids cannot break these even if they twist so that the whole crayon comes out). The colors are good, although since these crayons are harder, the color is lighter. The whole crayon also gets used up because it is comfortable to hold even if it has half an inch left on it. These crayons are worth every penny, I am so glad I found these. Even though they are more expensive, they go a really long way. I used to buy box after box of regulars, because no matter what brand I bought, they kept breaking, staining, plus my kids would rip the paper off and it would be everywhere. Believe it or not, I bought a pack of these 3 months ago, and it is still alive, except for a couple that are lost in the house somewhere. That is 3 months of coloring by 2 toddlers!

Alright all, for those that don't know me my name is Jim. I'm currently active duty Army in the 82nd ABN. I've been lifting for ~5 years or so, I just got back from a JRTC rotation so I've been out of the gym for ~30 days. My main goal for these 8 weeks are to get my strength back up after the 30 days away from the gym, I'll be taking starting measurements and weight tomorrow morning. When I left I weighed ~168 and hopefully didn't lose too much weight but I expect that I lost about 10 pounds or so out there, my end goal for this year was to be at 170 but I doubt that is possible based on what I expect my weight to be, as stated earlier the most important thing is strength at this point.
The Goods:
2x Free Test
2x IGF-2
2x N.O. Uptake
Creatine Mono
Muscle Marinade (when used no extra mono)
Gold Standard Whey
Orange Triad
The Routine:

The Diet:
3600 Calories

To some this may sound like a lot but it generally doesn't seem to be enough, or it wasn't before I left and I was considering bumping it up a few hundred. I train twice a day on Mon-Fri because of morning PT and then my afternoon workouts.
Will update with measurements and starting pics tomorrow morning.

Case Summary
A consent order permits Bayer to purchase Aventis CropScience Holdings S.A. from Aventis S.A. The order requires Bayer to divest businesses and assets in the following four major markets: new generation chemical insecticide products: new . - generation chemical insecticide active ingredients; post-emergent grass herbicides for spring wheat; and cool weather cotton defoliants. According to the complaint, the transaction as proposed would result in the elimination of both actual and competition in the four markets; increase barriers to entry; reduce innovation competition for certain products; and increase the possibility of coordinated interaction between competitors.

One of the most depressing statistics from a couple of years ago indicated that a large number of schools had not updated from Internet Explorer 6.

I think i like the heat sensitive sticker a little too much i think it would be a good addition to every company's heatsink stickers.
I really like it too. It's something I've never seen before on any PC component, and it's amaxing how something so small and simple can make such a difference. I think it's popular enough that we will be seeing many more products from ECS to include similar things, as the X79 board I'm working with now from ECS also has the same sort of thing, although, with a bit more function.
ECS really seam to be trying anything and everything to make great mid to high end board and apart from the lack of bios options i think they have done pretty well here although x79 boards are what have most of my interest right now so i'm very curious about what you are working with now, can you give any details on the more function part? or will i have to wait and read another great review
Have a feeling I'm going to be sticking to my current unlocked for a while with that said: in your eyes worrth the switch over your old 970?
Man that implementation of the thermal sticker is SICK! Keep it up ECS! The overall theme is looking cleaner as compared to my P67 as well.
I just got my SKT2011 CPU this morning. I'll be working hard all weekend on getting the upcoming reviews done ASAP; hopefully one week for the next few weeks. And yes, you'll have to wait, but it won't be a long wait, for sure. I did post a pic of part of what I refer to in the "Sexy hardware close-up" thread though. AMD chipsets and supporting products, to me, each have a specific user base they are planned for. The AMD970 chipset is primarily for single card users, the 990X is for mid-range dual GPU users, while the 990FX is for high-end GPU users. I see them this way, as the only real differences between the chipsets themselves is PCIe connectivity. So, if you are running a AMD 970 board with a single GPU, and have no plans to upgrade your VGA solution, then there's no reason to change boards. However, if you are in the market for a new motherboard, the 990FX-based boards have some of the best features added by board OEMs. I've always been a proponent of building well-balanced systems, so my recommendations along those lines are always going ot be focused with that in mind. You pick a board, no matter the platform, based on what you plan to plug into it, whether it's an AMD product, or an Intel product.
There is a black plastic cap over the other 4 pins(with the numbers 13 on it). I always take pictures first. You can see teh edge of a sticker there on the rear I/O that is removed in some of the other pictures, for example. Many boards will come with the same sort of cover, although not all. You can actually power the VRM using jsut a 4-pin plug, actaully, and the cover indicates which pins you need not fill, and is designed to not interfere with plugging in that 4-pin.
self change color sticker is cool but i wish something better like they paint the whole hsf then we can see 'does it go overheat' easily and its pretty nice if you have side window
Thanks D. No plans on multi-gpu, you already know my standpoint there. Can't wait to see your 2011 board reviews. Must ask, 3770K?
Just needed to ask ECS has been my fall back if Gigabyte proves to be too pricy, and MSI doesn't have what I need. He's been a faithful 3rd fallback for ages. But as the review said about the power failure, can you confirm that ECS hasn't done Anything? I have a MSI K9a-platinum, and I installed a HIS 5770, it died on my power button press. But the guys at MSI helped me with a new BIOS that helped. If ECS isnt helping then I'd gladly buy the BIOSTAR TA990FXE, and use the surplus funds for better RAM and even buy me a 6950. I got an old AUDIGY 2 PCI card, and it sound well, thats why none of the other board makers have what I need, which is a 2 PCI-E X16 (gen 2.0) slot running full speed, and a PCI slot. My cards are going to use 2 slots due to the cooling, please tell me if ECS has repaired the problem, or should I not wait and go for BIOSTAR instead?
I did talk to ECS about the problem, and they explained they would try to duplicate the issue using hardware they have on-hand. Other than that, I haven't had any response or been provided with a fix. At the same time it is possible they have duplicated the issue and are looking into a fix; I am not sure. The difference between the Biostar board and this one are in the PCIe lane splitting to the third slot, which on the Biostar board, is not there, with the slots being x16/x16/x4. The ECS board does x16/x8/x8. It seems to me ECS made this design choice because of all the additional drive and network controllers, and has then running form the x4 link on the southbridge, where the Biostar board simply doesn't have as much of these things. The Biostar board is about $100 cheaper, too. But considering all the stuff on the ECS board, the price seems justified.
ECS motherboard is ok to use but for overclocking i guess they're not as good as biostar . Nice review
Here is what I need Due to recent FX news, and that I really want to update my AMD athlon X2 64 5200+ I gave up and wanted to buy Phenom X4 955, but what board to buy. I wanted to build a crossfire between a new 6950 and my old 5770, so I need two PCI-E (gen2) slots running at full X16. with a PCI for my old AUDIGY2, can the BIOSTAR board give me satisfaction? my overclock requirements are nill but a 10 - 20 % increase would be nice. I wanted to buy 4X4 Gbyte corsair XMS3 or Vengeance, with my Hyper 212 still help me cool my processor. Can you advise me in this? I just want to make this an ironclad decission, thank you
This is a pretty good review,but i wonder why you didnt use Bulldozer chip to test it when i know you have one?
You didn't read the review, obviously. The board gave every CPU 1.5v. I'm not about to subject my BD chip to that voltage under load. Thuban is fine with it, however. Also, an FX-4100 shows very little difference in board performance due to how turbo works. The differences between boards are generally so small that it takes a decent CPU to show what's what. An "quad" FX chip under default settings will not run all four cores @ full speed, leading to a situation where you are really only using a dualcore. I dunno what AMD was thinking with these chips. Plus when two of the boards were tested, BD didn't exist.
You cannot Crossfire a 5770 and a 6950. The only cards that are Crossfire capable with a 5770 is another 5770 or a 5750, or their 6000 series counterparts (6770 and 6750). Source: http://sites.amd.com/PublishingImag.../WebBannerJPEG/AMD_CrossfireX_Chart_1618W.jpg
OK then.. I should sell the old 5770 and buy 6950, but can anyone tell me should I go with BIOSTAR or ECS, sorry, the lingering feeling is bursting now. I should still be able to use 6950 in my mobo right? *Gulp*, as I said the first time my mobo meet 5770, it went to a coma, now? I dont want him to die yet. Oh last question, I wanted two slots (gen 2.0) running full X16, the ecs runs at X16 at first slot and X8 at the second right? that said I REALLY better buy the BIOSTAR? correct?
You got an update from ECS yet? Seems quite a serious issue! Seems the lower end bulldozers are even buggier than the top end ones from you comment: /
