Breakfast was good. Very clean throughout
Decor a little old fashioned style
Nice hotel, clean, and staff pleasant enough. WiFi struggled to work in our room at the top.
This hotel was so peaceful and comfortable; we could have slept forever. The staff were accommodating and the breakfast choice was great.
The location, the room was very comfortable and clean and provided everything required for a very pleasant stay. The breakfasts were superb, and the bar was a great bonus. All this and very friendly hosts made it a great place to stay.
The service is always excellent and the staff go out of their way to accommodate your every need. relaxing even though its on a main road.
Nothing comes to mind except having to leave the 6ft bed behind.
Position,Style of property,Size of room, comfortable bed,great food,excellent service
Shower was not serviced properly. Had to wait a long time for hot water to come through. Sink plug hole leaking, so water disappeared when washing. Use of fabric conditioner on bedding caused my allergy to erupt. The proprietor said 'oh'.
very clean and comfortable. Tea, coffee and bottled water topped up each day. Nice big clean towels provided and bed made up each day. Pleasant staff, nothing too much trouble.
Internet connection intermittent. Bit further out of town than we realised although bus stop just outside with very frequent buses.
convenient for beach convenient for rail station and buses excellent room excellent breakfast helpful service
A really friendly ,relaxing and very comfortable place to stay . Welcoming couple which would do anything to make your stay perfect whatever your needs.
An overall excellent experience - a first rate small hotel
Excellent location for buses into town and beyond. Not too far from beach and sea front (about 20 minutes). Unlimited breakfast choices. Spotlessly clean rooms and communal areas. Helpful resident proprietors. Evening meals optional and very good value. Bar facilities if needed. Over 16's only (ideal). Free parking on site. Best B&B/small hotel I have stayed at!
My room was on top floor (only 2 rooms like this) and a bit of a hike up the second staircase.
Everything was wonderful, good size room, comfy bed, WiFi, good choice at breakfast especially the fresh fruit salad - would definitely recommend.
Had a very pleasant at Balincourt would stay there again
Food very good Friendly helpful staff Near to Bus stops \lots of helpful information Comfortable rooms
would have liked some outside sitting space
The bed was excellent rarely before have we ever had such a wonderful hotel bed to sleep in. The breakfast was fabulous but we didn't take dinner so we cannot comments the choice of restaurants is too great to spend even more time in the hotel. The staff were good and did everything well.
The hotel was a bit old fashioned and the dull artwork did nothing to enhance ambience. Another reason we didn't take dinner was that our room was above the kitchen and the smells good and bad permeated through. The room we had was listed as a premium room but the decoration was bland and otherwise had nothing to command the extra cost over normal. Tarty toiletries and a few sweets were not worth the extra. The shower was poor too. You had to move a lot to get wet and the domed shower tray was dangerous. The saniflo unit used to move sewage from the toilet into the drains was very noisy too. If I stayed again I'd specify a front facing room which look better on the website.
Friendly and helpful Owners,location and overall ambiance.
The location was close to the town and beach, the hotel was spotless. Very friendly staff when they were around. Bed very comfortable. Very quite at night.
En-suite was very small. Not a lot of room to dry your self. Out side we sat on the bench, nice evening. There was a bucket right by the bench, it was for smokers!! We are not smokers, we had to move as the ashes smelt awful. The flower baskets was watered 2 may be 3 times a day. It left a big puddle when you went in and out the door. No signs were there to warn you it was a slippery service. Did not like boiled mushrooms or the sausage for breakfast.
The whole experience
That I had to go home
Breakfast was ok.
The only outside space is two benches in the front garden over looking the a35 very poor indeed would not be returning.
actually worth the very high reviews it recived. great breakfast!
a little bit old fashioned but adds to the charm!
Excellent breakfast. Friendly customer-centred service. Very clean and efficient - thoughtful attention to detail in every aspect. Room quite spacious despite super-kingsize bed. Although we didn't use them, there is a separate lounge and TV room with games and books. Attractive flower borders at front.
Minor point: offstreet parking space a little tight when hotel full.
I didn't think it was quite up to the billing.
Design of rooms
Wasn't enough room for car!
My wife and I have just enjoyed a three night stay and the Balincourt is one of the best guest houses we have ever stayed in. It is spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained and the our room was a delight with the most comfortable of beds! The breakfast was delicious with a variety of choices to accommodate all tastes. Well done Nigel and Alison...keep up the good work! We will be back!

Picking the newest hot spots is a favored past time for travel media and travel planners and experts, and never are the lists more prolific than in January.
From The New York Times' just published "52 Places to Go in 2014" to Afar's "Where to Go in 2014," there is no shortage of new ideas for those looking for travel inspiration.Among the favored lists for travel sellers is the annual Virtuoso Luxe Report, which identifies not only hot new spots for luxury travel but also trends in where, why and how the affluent will travel.
This year's just-released compilation reiterates a lot of what travel experts have been saying over the last few years: adventure travel and multigenerational vacations are among the top travel trends; Asia continues as a favored emerging destination; and luxury travelers are increasingly seeking unique experiences.
But the report also has a few surprises and some interesting realignments in its 2014 lists, which are based on an annual survey of its elite travel advisors.
The top emerging destination travel agents see in the year ahead: Cuba. It outranked Asian hotspots like Myanmar, Vietnam and Cambodia.
Another interesting top 10 pick: Bhutan, which came in at No. 5, just behind the Galapagos Islands.
Italy maintains its dominance as everyone's favorite country. Italy also retained its top spot for family travel, followed by England, Hawaii, Costa Rica and Mexico.
New York City regained its top rank as the favored domestic destination. (New York bumped Napa Valley/ Sonoma, which dropped to third.) Hawaii also finished strong, with the Big Island joining No. 2 Maui in the top five.
The main motivators for luxury travel, according to Virtuoso, are authentic experiences, rest and relaxation and spending time or reconnecting with loved ones; new additions to the list are rediscovering destinations and exploring new places.
A new category in the 2014 report ranks popular honeymoon destination: Italy, French Polynesia, Maui, the Maldives and St. Lucia topped that list. It closely resembles its list for favored destinations for romantic travel, which includes Italy, French Polynesia, Bali and France.
Luxury cruises are also identified as a top trend for 2014. The Mediterranean regained its top spot in that category, with Alaska dropping to No. 2.

MAYAPUR CHANDRODAYA… Golden Moon of Mercy!
By Gokulananda Das, ACBSP ( not the one from England )
Sridham Mayapur, March 21st/08
What a gorgeous sight… above us the golden moon of Phalguna Purnima smiles its soothing cooling light upon the throngs of good souls roaming this evening throughout this effulgent blissful land of Gaura Dham, always awash in the rising waves of Gaura kripa, specially on this most sacred day of Gaura Purnima. And what a glorious day we have all shared here. For Mangal arotik, a constant flow of thousands of eager devotees started pouring in for darshan of the Maha Pancha Tattva. By the middle of the arotik, the rising roar of their enthousiastic chanting seemed to almost lift up the entire huge temple room, as the swelling masses of Gaura bhaktas overflowed unto the exterior courtyard.
While taking in this immense scene with deep satisfaction, I thought how pleased Srila Prabhupada must be to see how his spiritual united nations of ISKCON has brought together here so many fortunate souls, under his ever-present shelter, from over 70 countries worldwide. And one can feel a palpable sense of deep gratitude filling all our hearts to be thus gathered here for this downpour of mercy. Even the recent weather has played its part in this glorious manifestation of descending Gaura kripa. For the last two evenings before Gaura Purnima, huge surges of wind preceded suddden yet short downpours, to refreshen the ambient fragrant breezes. A nice parallel to the soothing sweet refreshing sounds of kirtan and Gaura katha that have daily showered our eager hearts with their ever-fresh nectar.
It's so soothing to just be here now in this sacred Gaura Dham and let oneself go with the ebb and flow of the sweet nectar sounds. What pleasure, what glory, what mercy! And such feelings of belonging, like this is our real home, and we simply want to stay here forever… and join this glorious abode of mercy, within the precious kinship of the growing family of devotees from every corner … a really really nice mood, an uplifting glimpse into Sri Krishna's ever-blissful realm where we all come from.
Gaura bhakta vrinda! Mayapur Chandrodaya kijaya!
Gokulananda das, ACBSP

RENTON, WA - MAY 2: Max Unger #60 of the Seattle Seahawks runs drills against Dave Philistin #42 during minicamp at the Seahawks training facility on May 2, 2009 in Renton, Washington. (Photo by Otto Greule Jr/Getty Images)
This Seahawks have extended the only member of their offensive line who wasn't hurt last season, center Max Unger. Unger will get over 24 million combined over 2013-2016, adding this extension onto the million or so he'll make this year in the final year of his rookie deal. This deal also guarantees him 12 million total. Considering elite centers like Scott Wells (4 years, 24 million, 13 million guaranteed) and Chris Myers (4 years, 25 million, 14 million guaranteed) got similar amounts on their contracts this offseason, Unger is overpaid. He's not an elite center and has never been one. This season, he was ProFootballFocus' 17th ranked center, about as middle of the pack as you can get. There's no reason to pay a solid starting center this much money. Grade: C

- Studio: Magnolia Pictures
- Release Date: May 30, 2014
- Starring: Johan Liljemark, Liv LeMoyne, Mira Barkhammar, Mira Grosin
- Summary: Three girls in 1980's Stockholm decide to form a punk band—despite not having any instruments and being told by everyone that punk is dead.
- Director: Lukas Moodysson
- Genre(s): Drama
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 26 out of 28
Mixed: 2 out of 28
Negative: 0 out of 28
Brash and sweet, We Are the Best! captures perfectly the aimlessness of adolescence, the waiting to become something that's so often intertwined with the desire to make something, to leave your mark on the world in some small way.
You don't have to like punk rock to fall in love with We Are the Best!; if a more joyous film comes along in 2014, then it's a good year indeed.
Mr. Moodysson's film is little only in physical and financial scale. When measured by the pleasure it confers, We Are the Best! is a big deal that will be winning hearts — and even grownup minds — for a long time to come.
What we have here is an exhilarating blast of a movie, full of heart but still punk rock. So don't get all pissy because it's in Swedish (with English subtitles) and you never heard of anyone in it and coming-of-age movies about girls make you puke.
The girls bring a passion to the band that they can muster nowhere else in their lives. Not everyone gets what they're doing — well, no one, really — but that's the point. This is a knowing film, and a liberating one.
Sweet-spirited and sometimes meandering but always working in the service of its young protagonists' perspective, We Are the Best! might come off as slight if you aren't paying attention, or you pay too much attention to the too-cute closing credits montage.
May 30, 2014The film's winsome, self-satisfied comedy will no doubt appeal more to viewers who prize juvenile hi-jinks over the cultural moment it depicts.

Abu Ammaar Yaasir al-Qaadi
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 25 | Size: 1 MB
As- Salaam Alaikum! I welcome you to our 'Like A Garment' e-book, an initiative that seeks to educate Muslims to find conjugal bliss in their marriages.
The name of this project came from one of the most beautiful, poetic and profound metaphors of the Qur'aan. Allah states, "Permitted for you, during the night of the fast, that you approach your wives. They are your garments, and you are their garments" [al-Baqarah; 187].
In this verse, each spouse is described as a 'garment' to the other. The famous exegete Ibn Jarir al-Tabari (d. 311) stated that this description most aptly described the act of intimacy between the spouses, for during that act, each spouse sheds his or her other garments and then wraps around the other,takingthe place of clothes. Al-Qurtubi (d. 671) also comments on this metaphor, and adds that just as clothes protect their wearer from the external elements, similarly each spouse protects the other from external passions that would harm a marriage.
Combining between the various explanations of this beautiful metaphor found in the books of tafseer, we can derive many meanings from it:
- The act of procreation is so intimate that it is literally as if one of the spouses covers up the other, just as clothing covers up one's body. Another euphemism that the Qur'aan uses for the sexual act is the verb ghashsha, which means 'to cover up, to envelop'.
- One primary purpose of clothing is to conceal one's nakedness, since this nakedness (or `awrah) is embarrassing to display, and should be hidden from the eyes of others. Similarly, each spouse conceals the other spouse's faults, and does not reveal them to others.
- Clothing protects one from the external elements, such as heat and cold. Similarly, spouses protect one another from external desires that originate from many different sources. By satisfying these desires within the confines of marriage, external passions are removed.
- Clothing is the primary method through which humans beautify themselves. Without clothing, one is incomplete and naked. Similarly, spouses beautify and complete one another; when a person is not married, he or she is not yet complete and has not reached his or her full potential. Marriage is an essential part of being fully human, just like clothes are an essential part of being fully civilized.
- Clothes are only worn in front of others, and are not necessary in front of spouses. It is only in front of one's spouse that the other spouse can discard his or her garments.
- Clothes are the closest thing to one's body. Nothing comes between a person and his or her clothes. So the analogy of spouses being 'like clothes to one another' implies such a closeness – there is nothing, literally and metaphorically, that should come between spouses. Continue reading

Have assets, will manage
MRO Software officials have released Maximo Enterprise Suite, a group of products for managing assets and service operations.
Although asset management is not new, it is still immature, said Mark Gruzin, director of MRO's Federal Division. People are still using spreadsheets to track assets in many organizations, he said.
Built on a single platform, the MRD suite provides support for contract compliance, service-level agreements, internal corporate standards and government regulations. Each product can be used separately or in various combinations to meet an organization's needs.
The suite's information technology service-desk functions help managers handle incident reporting, problem solving, configuration issues, call tracking and IT asset life cycle management.
Company officials are marketing the suite as a tool for consolidating applications, an activity in which many federal agencies are engaged, Gruzin said. By giving a single view of all assets, the suite could help agency managers catalog available resources and identify those they still need, he said. It also helps find redundancies that could be eliminated.
Gruzin said the suite could be helpful to federal IT managers who want to consolidate their applications management and outsource some jobs.
Business processes must be supported, which is one of the factors driving the adoption of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, he said. "We look at ourselves as a bolt-on to an ERP suite."
Using the product takes some time and effort, Gruzin said, adding that "you can't get to nirvana overnight."
No Internet across the ocean?
SI International officials recently introduced an electronic document system that helps ships more easily comply with the U.S. Coast Guard's newest port security requirements.
The document system enables vessel operators to fill in and electronically submit required Notice of Arrival/Departure information to the Coast Guard for processing.
Before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, vessels had to notify marine safety officers and port captains of their arrival 24 hours in advance. They had to describe only the hazardous material they were transporting.
Now, ships must notify the National Vessel Movement Center via a Web-based submission system. The center was created after the attacks to centralize the Coast Guard's process for ships entering and departing the United States.
In addition, vessel operators must notify the center 96 hours in advance and provide information about everybody aboard the ship.
One problem, however, is that Internet connectivity is not always available when a ship is four days from shore.
That's where SI International's new system comes in. It allows vessel operators to download the forms to their onboard computers and enter the data into an off-line form. If they don't finish in one session, they can save the data and resume working later.
Once users enter information and Internet connectivity becomes available again, they can e-mail the form or submit it online to the Coast Guard in Extensible Markup Language.

Royals 2, Devil Rays 0
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)—Jimmy Gobble looked lost, almost frantic.
Here he was, about to head out on his first major league road trip—still in his game underwear and unsure what to put in his bag. And there sat veteran pitcher Jose Lima at the next locker, nipping at the rookie's heels nonstop.
"You got 10 minutes. You better not be late. I'm telling you, you better not be late," Lima told the Kansas City Royals' rookie left-hander. "I'm keeping you straight, bro. I'm keeping you on track."
Then, as soon as Gobble was out of earshot and headed for the showers, Lima shook his head and said one word: "Unbelievable."
Lima meant it as a compliment.
Gobble, called up from Double-A Wichita on Saturday when Lima went down with a groin strain, saved his nervousness for the clubhouse. He was in command on the mound, pitching into the seventh inning in his major league debut as the Kansas City Royals beat the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 2-0 on Sunday.
"When you see a young guy pitch like he did, with the heart that he had, it gives you goosebumps," Lima said. "That kid's got some guts."
Displaying a solid, 90 mph fastball and a willingness to throw breaking pitches inside, Gobble (1-0) helped the Royals stay atop the AL Central despite being outhit 6-4.
"The ball gets on you pretty quick, but the main thing he did was hit his spots," Tampa Bay's Damian Rolls said.
Aaron Guiel hit Kansas City's second inside-the-park homer of the series, and Joe Randa was 2-for-4 with a home run as the Royals spoiled a complete-game effort by Tampa Bay's Jeremi Gonzalez.
Angel Berroa hit an inside-the-park homer Friday in a 9-6 loss.
Gobble, who threw his first pitch for a strike to Carl Crawford, gave up six hits in six-plus innings with three strikeouts and one walk. He was replaced by Curtis Leskanic after giving up a leadoff double to Rolls.
"I was a little nervous up until that first pitch," Gobble said. "After that, you just have to get into the mind-set of competing."
Leskanic got out of the seventh, and Jeremy Affeldt struck out three in two perfect innings for his first career save.
The six-hitter was Kansas City's fifth shutout of the season. Tampa Bay has been blanked eight times.
Gobble is the eighth Royals pitcher to win his major league debut and the first since Glendon Rusch on April 6, 1997.
"We follow our minor league reports every day," manager Tony Pena said. "We get reports on everything they do in the minors—and I still never thought he would be the way he was today."
Gonzalez lost despite retiring 15 batters in a row between Randa's third-inning single and Brent Mayne's one-out single in the eighth.
He struck out three and walked one in his third career complete game and first since 1998 with the Chicago Cubs.
Gobble's toughest challenge came when Jared Sandberg and Julio Lugo opened the Devil Rays' third with back-to-back singles. Gobble got Crawford to ground into a fielder's choice, advancing Sandberg to third, then struck out Antonio Perez and Rocco Baldelli.
The last pitch to Baldelli was the most impressive of the day. With the count 2-2 and Crawford running from first, Gobble froze Baldelli with a breaking ball at the knees.
Gobble also had runners in scoring position in the fifth and sixth, both times with two outs.
Randa homered with one out in the first inning, and Guiel made it 2-0 with one out in the third when his line drive hit the wall in the right-field corner and skipped past Rolls. By the time Rolls tracked the ball down, Guiel was rounding third.
"I've misplayed a few balls out there myself," Guiel said. "If you don't get the ball cut off, it's going to get on that rubberized warning track androll all the way around."
1B Mike Sweeney, on a rehabilitation assignment with Triple-A Omaha, could join the Royals on Monday in Chicago. Sweeney has been out since June 19 with tightness in his upper back. … Kansas City's three inside-the-park homers this season are its most since hitting four in 1992. The club record is seven in 1979. … Baldelli went 0-for-4, snapping a 10-game hitting streak. … Crawford stole two bases, giving him sole possession of the AL lead and the Devil Rays' single-season record with 33. He had been tied with Jason Tyner (31 steals in 2001). … Kansas City is 37-0 this season when holding opponents tothree or fewer runs.

Featured on one of Gayot's Top 10 of 2012 lists, the seafood at Hugo's Frog Bar & Fish House "could not be fresher or better cooked." In addition to steaks and chops from its sister restaurant, Gibson's, Hugo's menu showcases a spread of classically prepared familiars including oysters on the half shell, pan-seared scallops, and giant lobster tails joined by drawn butter. But the eatery's signature dish is a different kind of aquatic creature: frog legs arrive at tables sautéed and soaked in garlic butter. Maritime decor complements the nautical morsels, from nostalgic photographs of lighthouses to miniature models of ships to barnacles on the eyebrows of every server.
After leaving behind their hometown in Greece, brothers Angelo and John Sellis put their entrepreneurial minds together to build a new life in the United States, with their restaurant Palm Court at the heart of their new venture. More than 30 years since greeting their first diners, John and other members of the Sellis family continue watching over the eatery's three dining rooms, learning the names of regular customers and giving them courtesy calls when their favorite specials are back on the menu. The brothers' team of chefs?overseen by Angelo in the kitchen?constructs its long-perfected dishes from foundations of duck, oysters, beef, and seafood as tinkling piano tunes fill the adjacent cocktail lounge, where customers sip signature martinis, wines, or domestic and imported brews.
Since he came to the U.S. three decades ago, chef-owner Vittorio DiBenedetto has opened a few restaurants, but the Trattoria remains dear to him. Intimate even though it stretches across three dining rooms, the restaurant's layout mirrors the chefs' commitment to friendly togetherness. That feeling of camaraderie extends to the circular cherrywood-and-granite bar, where pours of 40 different wines loosen up tongues in need of free-wheeling conversation or a reminder of what grapes taste like. Crisply contrasting black accents stripe the light yellow interior, where guests await house favorites including giant scallops and gorgonzola-topped steak.
It all started in 1946 when a Navy cook finished his tour of duty after World War II. He left his destroyer in the South Pacific and set sail for Chicago's South Side. There, he opened a carry-out fried-seafood joint and dubbed it Ship Shape Shrimp Shack, a name that was hard to say but easy to love, thanks to his signature fried-shrimp recipe. For 30 years, he continued delighting customers and living his dream, minus the part where he could fly, until 1976, when health issues forced him to close the restaurant. A few years later, a local truck driver and food-service veteran by the name of Frank took over, renaming the place Frank's Chicago Shrimp House. Under the Navy cook's tutelage, he learned everything there was to know about the shrimp and seafood business, and enjoyed the same success through the golden-fried shrimp and seafood of his predecessor. Today, his daughters are at the helm, keeping tradition alive and well at four locations throughout the Chicagoland area. At those restaurants, they fry up the classics and mix it up with frog legs and New Orleans–style fried shrimp, pairing the crispy morsels with classic sides such as hush puppies, cole slaw, and french fries.
Before convertibles, or highways, or paved streets in Chicago's suburbs, a little field house fronted by two gas pumps sat on a two-lane dirt road that some people called North Avenue. The house's residents pumped gas for thirsty cars and whipped up meals for hungry travelers, and their little business became an oasis for those on their way in or out of the city. Times changed, and as the town grew the little business kept pace, transforming over 75 years from a gas station and tavern into Ki's Steak and Seafood.
Today, Executive Chef Daniel has a few more tools at his disposal than the original proprietor's stove top and frying pan. He works in a professionally outfitted kitchen, churning out hand-cut black angus steaks, bacon-wrapped scallops, and roast duck. Meanwhile, his saucier whips up endless batches of bernaise and bourdelaise sauce to drizzle over steaks or play a gourmet version of bobbing for apples.
The little dirt road that ran past the house became a busy, concrete vein of commerce, pumping car-fulls of customers into the establishment's parking lot. However, despite this urban sprawl, the owners have done their best to ensure that the view from the windows remains nostalgically delightful. Their restaurant sits on six acres of farmland, and its grand picture windows overlook a rustic barn occupied by peacocks, sheep, and rabbits, and framed by flower beds and ponds.
Live music and classic American fare keeps guests returning to Casey's Restaurant & Bar. Whether starting the day with a brunchtime bloody mary or winding down with a steak and a glass of wine, diners find themselves immersed in a casual atmosphere where plates are piled high. Cooks will even cater, which means Casey's fans can host get-togethers fueled by pasta, ribs, and the bands that insist on moving into customers' garages.

There isn't an ounce of genuine affection on display. Fenton and Barbato already made a documentary of the same title about Alig, and their fascination with this vapid, charmless pied piper of decadence remains a mystery.
There's an ample sense of foreboding in Last Night -- but sadly, very little else.

Hughes is just treading lukewarm water. Stotz is the blandest of his teen heroes yet. [16 Mar 1987]

A slick but surprisingly empty genre movie that builds to a not particularly shocking shock.
- Critic Score
Provides some great laughs, but founders when it tries to tackle more serious issues. Entitled "10 Dates," it might have been a much better film.
- Critic Score
The film has its dumb points: too many shots of churning surf and lovers nestled in beach blankets, not to mention the premise that women find incommunicative, hulking shells like Blake the height of irresistibility. But it gets you.
- Critic Score
Before it degenerates into Indiana Potter and the Chamber of Doom, the movie holds promise -- it hints at why the Harry Potter movies aren't half as wonderful as they ought to be, why they feel created from the outside in. Magic isn't made by committee.

Resoundingly so-so.
A flat, cliched film in a flat, cliched genre.

Why does this chronicle of a passionate life refuse to catch fire? For all of Taymor's flashy embellishments -- surreal dream sequences, constructivist collages come to life -- it trudges through the Kahlo chronology with the dutiful step of a conventional Hollywood biopic.
Unless you're 15 at heart, you may need anger management yourself after sitting through this aggressively crass comedy, which alternates between mean-spirited slapstick and arbitrary uplift.
There are inspired moments in this edgy, unstable comedy.
Comes off as surprisingly unmagical, with characters you only half care about.
Payback may not always be P.C., but it's not interested in making friends, anyway. Just killing enemies.

While the first half showcases an impressive new directorial talent, the last two quarters fail to score.

A decidedly mixed bag.
- Newsweek
It does justice to its source material -- and that may be the problem.
- Critic Score
Inside this numbingly formulaic action comedy there's a small, quirky movie not screaming hard enough to get out--the kind of movie that director and co-writer Ron Shelton ("Bull Durham," "Tin Cup") could have had some real fun with.
Strikingly devoid of suspense. It's not always clear who's the protagonist and who's the antagonist. Nor is it scary—at its most intense moments, it's merely yucky.
- Newsweek
Slightly soggy.
Couldn't have arrived at a better time: movies have been so bad lately that audiences are positively starving for something mediocre.
- Critic Score
This is one of the silliest movies ever made--and lots of instantly forgettable fun.
It's not half bad, with cool locations and a great stunt leap from the top of a Hong Kong high-rise.
In the end, artifice overwhelms art. Apt Pupil is too serious to work as a genre movie, and too contrived to be taken seriously. [12 October 1998]
- Newsweek
There are pleasures to be had in the handsome, heroic The Last Samurai. But they' all on the surface.
Demme is understandably reluctant to linger on the horrors of slavery, but it's a dramaturgical mistake. The quick, shocking flashbacks of Sethe's brutalization by her white masters don't do the job--they're horrific, but with a B movie luridness.
Shot in crisp black and white, this homage to "La Dolce Vita" nonetheless lacks the charm and energy of Fellini's farcical original.
- Critic Score
Instead of being moved by Christ's suffering, or awed by his sacrifice, I felt abused by a filmmaker intent on punishing an audience, for who knows what sins.
The main problem is the script, which has a few scares but little smarts.
- Critic Score
Along the way, not just the storytelling but the original intention has gotten muddled. You leave The Alamo uncertain of what you're meant to feel: is this a celebration of patriotic sacrifice or an illustration of war's futility?

Funding for police, fire, and emergency medical technicians (EMT) needs will be shortchanged by about $ 100 billion through 2008, according to a report from a nonprofit group.
The First Response Coalition—which has 40,000 police, fire, EMT, and other supporters nationwide—released "America's First Responders and the Federal Budget: A Study of Rhetoric Versus Reality." The report concludes that first responders will be underfunded by $100.2 billion by 2008. The estimate is based on budget figures for the Department of Homeland Security and does not take into account any cuts to first-responder funds that reside in other federal departments.
A number of first responders directly commented on the situation in the report. Gene Stilp, president, Dauphin-Middle Paxton Fire Company #1, Dauphin, Pa., said, "In the less than four years that have passed since Sept. 11, the federal budgets for first-responder grant programs have been reduced. These results do not match the urgency contained in many of the continued public remarks on the topic."

In Theaters Now: Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Jeffy Kinney's hugely popular book series, "Diary of a Wimpy Kid," comes to the big screen in a silly and often crude take on life in the sixth grade. The film is funny, but also surprisingly touching and authentic, as Greg and his best friend Rowley navigate the anxieties, hopes and hazards of middle school. Ultimately a lesson about friendship, it's a film the entire family can enjoy together. Rated PG, OK for kids 9+
DVD: Fantastic Mr. Fox
A bored newspaper columnist attempts to spice up his life in "Fantastic Mr. Fox," a quirky adaptation of Roald Dahl's classic children's story. Mr. Fox lies, steals and endangers his friends and family, but in the end he sees the light and makes amends. The language is clean, but the cartoon violence and nasty bad guys might frighten very young kids. Rated PG, OK for kids 7+
TV: Pretty Wild!
A former Playboy model mom and her two rebellious teen daughters have the spotlight in "Pretty Wild!," a new reality series on E!. While both daughters pursue modeling careers, Mom struggles with setting boundaries and reigning in her out-of-control girls. The show is pointless voyeurism with no redeeming value whatsoever. Rated TV-14, Not Appropriate for kids Under 14
Books: We Planted a Tree
A picture book about the wonders of trees, "We Planted a Tree" follows the lives of two families and the trees they've planted as they all grow and change through the years. Educational and inspirational, Diane Muldrow's book is environmental poetry for young children. OK for kids 5+
Music: Telephone (Lady Gaga)
The latest single from Lady Gaga's "The Fame Monster," "Telephone" has gotten lots of attention for its raunchy video. But the song itself, about a girl who'd rather dance than let a boy ruin her good time with telephone talk, is fairly tame. Pop's reigning bad girl teams with Beyonce on this tune which, because of the video, is probably better suited for older teens. Iffy for kids 14-15
Web: StoryJumper
Kids can write and illustrate their own stories on "Story Jumper," an online creative writing workshop. Users can designate their work as public or private and, for a fee, have their stories printed in hardback. In addition, parents can set up an account on the site giving them access to their child's work. OK for kids 7+
Games: The Daring Game for Girls
For Nintendo DS, DSi and Wii, "The Daring Game for Girls" is a role playing game in which players try to make friends, have fun and earn money. Challenges include answering trivia questions, winning playground games and gathering supplies to build things. Wholesome and fun, the game has enough variety to keep girls interested and is challenging enough to keep them coming back for more. Rated E, OK for kids 8+

Well acted. Great set. Very engaging. Laughed out loud - a lot!

Fun and funny farce! The set, lighting, and music were especially spectacular. Acting was very strong all around, although the main character felt a little flat in comparison to all the charismatic women and his hilarious "sidekick" Robert.

It was a fun romp. Loved the physical comedy.

We just saw a preview, but the performance was tight, tight, tight! This is a French farce and has almost nothing to do with Boeing, but if you know that going into it, it makes for a fun evening. Each of the six actors was spot on and there...continued

County looks at possible park site
Date: March 25, 2010
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
It's been a year since the Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores neighborhood circulated a petition that asked the county to purchase a Bay Shore Road property and turn it into a park.
Matthew Reynolds, the driving force behind last year's petition, is still working to get his neighborhood a park.
The biggest hurdle had been that the property Reynolds was targeting, 4200 Bay Shore Road, was owned by a development group that wanted to build homes there.
"I had given up on it," said Reynolds.
Coastal Island Group had been working for about three years to build its Casa Museo development on the eight-acre property. The company had already put in all the infrastructure — electric, water, sewer and road. It only needed to sell the home sites. It was unable to, and the Casa Museo sign has been removed.
Reynolds said developer Pat Ball is now ready to sell the property to the county.
"The county is as good a buyer as any," said Reynolds.
Ball did not return calls seeking comment.
Sarasota County keeps a list of properties it will consider buying and converting into parks. At one point, the Bay Shore Road property was low on that list, because the developer did not want to sell.
But Coastal Island Group's possible change of heart and the recent elimination of Jungle Gardens from the county's list put a possible Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores park back
into play.
The county is conducting an appraisal of the site to determine a target price, and Reynolds expects sale negotiations to begin shortly after, which could be within two months. Sarasota County officials did not return calls seeking comment.
Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores has two small "pocket" parks that are about a quarter-acre in size but has nothing the size of the Bay Shore Road property.
"We are the biggest neighborhood in the city, with about 1,200 homes, and we don't have anywhere kids can play," Reynolds said.

Staten Island, NY
As told by his mother, Gina Del Re
At 19 months old, my son, Anthony, was diagnosed with C. difficile in September 2013.
When I received this horrifying phone call from Anthony's gastroenterologist, my jaw dropped. What is this? Can you spell that? How could he have contracted this?
Now I can tell you a lot about C. diff, after living through it in my home and watching my son through two bouts of it.
Anthony is a strong, happy, lovable little boy who was born with two rare genetic diseases. His life is not easy, but he is a warrior. Anthony is immuno-compromised and gets sick often, which results in many hospital visits, blood tests, and sometimes multiple doctor visits per week at various specialists. But even in this context, battling two rounds of C. diff was unimaginable and just awful.
In August 2013, my husband and I noticed something irregular about Anthony's middle finger on one of his hands. His cuticle was inflamed and had pus beneath it. We immediately were concerned and brought him to our pediatrician. The pediatrician took a look at his finger and did a test to see if it was a staph infection. He sent us home with an antibiotic: Cefadroxil.
I was a healthy, 39 year old man who was loving life, traveling the world and working my dream job until a trip to China started a downhill spiral that continues today. In 2004, on a business trip in China when I developed abdominal cramping and diarrhea. Thinking it was a traveler's illness, I took some Cipro and continued my work. I had been teaching a course for physicians in a Shanghai hospital, nowhere near any patient treatment areas.
The following day, I awoke with increased abdominal cramping, a slightly distended abdomen, non-stop diarrhea and a fever. Still thinking it was caused by something I had eaten, I continued teaching. Since this was my last day in China, I struggled through the day with my fever rising, chills, increased distention, frequent diarrhea and worsening dehydration. The 13 hour plane ride back to the USA was awful, I was shivering and sweating, I couldn't stay out of the lavatory, the odor was nauseating and my abdomen looked like I was pregnant. I told the flight attendant that I was sick and to keep the one lavatory closed off for me only. I was one of 3 in First Class and there were 2 lavatories).
Contributed by Judy Dexter's Clan
Our mom went to the hospital in December 2012 when she was having difficulty breathing. She was admitted for a lung infection and treated with antibiotics for 8 days. Our family was not prepared for the torment that the following months would bring.
Three days after being discharged from the hospital, she had uncontrollable diarrhea which resulted in severe dehydration. Her doctor prescribed her a series of diarrhea medicine and she was given instructions to change her diet to bulk foods. It was another 2 1/2 weeks, upon returning to the hospital, that she was diagnosed with Clostridium difficile (C. diff).
We knew little about it but learned very quickly. It became second nature for our family to put on protective gowns and gloves before visiting her room.
My name is Megan and I live in Pennsylvania. I am 29, married and have three small children. I have struggled with Clostridium difficile (C. diff) for the past year before receiving a fecal transplant, which has successfully treated the condition up to this point. I want to share my story to help others who are battling C. diff because throughout the past year, I often felt frustrated, angry, scared and depressed along with being frequently sick. Most of all, I want others to know that they are not alone, they are not isolated and there are options to consider when the "standard" treatments don't work.
So how did a healthy 29 year old woman get C. diff? Well, that's a great question since we are not sure at what "point" I got C. diff, and it took nearly a year to figure out what caused it. My first indication that something wasn't right was in mid-2012 when I was pregnant with my 3rd child I would often have entire days of vomiting and diarrhea. We just chalked it up to my not having a gallbladder (I still get attacks) and my being pregnant at the time.
My sister and I lost our mother, Teresa Mustain, on March 7th, 2013. She was 57 and had been battling C. diff since October 2011. We were not surprised when she finally passed away, but shocked nonetheless. Her health continuously declined from that first bout.
Mom was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia back in 1992. She was also diabetic.
My mother was in and out of the hospital several times in the last 18 months. They'd rehydrate her, give her an antibiotic, and send her home. I think she started with the basic Metronidazole and that was repeated between October 2011 and May 2012. May 2012 found her hospitalized again. This time, they started her on Vancomycin. She was on this for 7 months straight - and she said she almost felt normal. Within a month of being off of it, she was back in the hospital for C. diff. They put her back on the Vancomycin. She finished that round and within a few weeks was yet again back in the hospital - this puts us at February 2013 - 3 days before her first of 3 surgeries. The surgery got postponed. This round of C. diff caused her kidneys and liver to begin failing.

In the wake of an epic bloodletting, Tetsu dreams of his father, mourns the loss of a precious friendship, and makes a promise to the girl he loves.
Rival spies battle to a standstill in the dead of night, and young boy struggles to choose between bloodshed and peace. Meanwhile, a heartbroken page is left with nothing but the head of his master.
The bloodshed is great as the Shinsengumi cut down their enemies one by one. Even young Tetus joins the fight after a pep talk from Yamanami.
As the Shinsengumi prepare for all-out war, Yamanami struggles with painful flashbacks to a night of violence, and a traumatized Tetsu locks himself in seclusion.
Souji and his men set out on a quest for vengeance after the murder of their comrade, and Tetsu's next encounter with Suzu could be his last.
Reports of a woman being brutally beaten by a group of samurai send the Shinsengumi flying into action, but will they arrive in time to prevent the death of one of their own?
Concern over Ayumu's prolonged absence continues to grow at Shinsengumi headquarters, but Tetsu's earnest attempt to speak with her brother ends in violence.
Hijikata and Souji pursue a murderous imposter, but their search leads them straight to the gates of death. Their future will surely be short-lived if they cannot escape a twisted realm of illusion!
Tatsu barely survives another chaotic encounter with the mysterious Sakamoto, and a man with a passion for murder poses as Souji!
Souji causes a commotion at headquarters when he steals Hijikata's collection of haikus, and Suzu's master commands him to carry out a chilling mission involving his new friend.
Tetsu arouses concern at Shinsengumi headquarters when he refuses to get out of bed. His friends want to know what's bothering the young page, but Tatsu refuses to shed light on the mystery.
After their paths cross yet again, Tetsu and Suzu realize they have much in common, but the sudden arrival of Suzu's master threatens to end their blossoming friendship.
Tatsu struggles with the responsibility of looking out for his reckless younger brother, and Tetsu is shocked beyond belief by an unexpected encounter with Saya.
Tatsu is visited by an outlaw who claims to have known his father, and Shinsengumi headquarters is infiltrated by a deceptively-adorable spy.
During a tense reflection on past battles, Hijikata and Yamanami nearly come to blows. Later, in the dead of night, they draw their swords against supernatural foes!
Vice Commander Hijikata sends Tetsu and Tatsu to pick up an important package, but their mission is complicated by a run-in with Tetsu's arch rival and the appearance of a mysterious warrior.
