A lovely combination of knit and plush that is totally on the mark for toddlers who like a big but light enough huggable to drag about. These huggables are 18-inches long. The photo of this soft cuddly doll with long legs and arms and floppy ears does not really convey just how cute this doll is. The legs are not rigid or wired, but soft and easy for little ones to grasp. The features are stitched and baby safe. There is a grey elephant version as well as a pink mouse. We happen to love the bunny and see the new black and white Puppy in the same line. Also adorable, Baby Long Legs Squeakers, Bunnies, Elephants, Puppy and Pink Mouse ($12.99 each) in this line that are 8-inch miniatures of the bigger dolls. Baby safe and machine washable. All ages.

Three feet tall, Charles is truly a giant in Toyland. Knitted of cotton yarn he is soft and huggable and will make a decorative centerpiece of any child's room. But more than that, he is apt to play a big role in a child's pretend play. With his orange whiskers, happy grin, long green tail with orange tufts, and brown shaggy yarn mane, Charles is a friendly sort of lion with big blue eyes and striped trousers. This is the kind of memorable plaything that listens well and says only what a child imagines it can say. The smaller doll pictured does not come with Charles. Blabla makes many smaller and less pricey dolls that are equally charming. Handmade in Peru, these dolls capture the affection and imagination at first glance. All ages.
Age: Toddlers, Preschool. Award Year: 2012.

You may have seen the book called Gallop with its moving images. This wonderful toy allows children to create their own moving images. The case and markers come with premade art that young kids color. Then they close the case and turn the dials to see their colorful creation come to life. The kit comes loaded with a roller in place and a spare roller with more images that can replace the original. We usually steer clear of coloring toys that are not open-ended. But this goes beyond simple coloring. It's a little magic, science and illusion. Younger kids will need help with setting it up and adding the second roller.

It is otherwise the same game in a convenient banana shaped zip up pouch. Players divvy up the tiles and play side by side creating their own connected words. It's different from Scrabble since you do not take turns, although you must take extra tiles when your opponent uses up her tiles and is ready to take more. A great take along for vacation time. Quick and easy to learn. 7 & up.

Collecting dolls of other lands is a passion that frequently begins in the later school years. Girls may feel "too old" to play with dolls but still like having them in their rooms. The current Australian and Irish dolls are fairly reasonably priced for entry level collectors. For this age group they may also spark an interest in finding out more about their doll's country and customs. Mattel has a website with map and games and information dedicated to this collection. Each doll comes with a passport and display stand and is dressed in clothes or costumes that reflect the traditional or modern dress. Each doll also has a related animal. The Australian doll wears a safari outfit and has a koala bear.

Yup, I said pickles. Let me explain. This past summer, I visited Reford Gardens in Grand-Métis, QC. Partway through our stroll through these amazing gardens along the St. Lawrence River, my little group met up with Alexander Reford. As he took us outside of the visitor area and started to show us some of the things he has in store for the next few years, we ran into chef Pierre-Olivier Ferry and a member of his team plucking blooms for a wedding the next day. I was able to taste some of his culinary magic at lunch in the Estevan Lodge. And as I was leaving, I ducked into the gift shop and grabbed a few jars of the specialty products Pierre-Olivier has started selling. A strawberry and lemon verbena jam was amazing on my summer toast. And this brings me to my next purchase: the pickles. Pierre-Olivier pickles daisy and daylily buds. I brought them to my parents' house to try with our dinner one night this summer and they are quite delicious! I guess you could compare them to capers, but they're a bit sweeter – the daylilies are pickled in honey vinegar. They make a unique addition to a salad and are delicious served with fish. Perfect for the foodie gardener on your list!
Price: Prices start at $5 a jar for some of the jellies and go up to $50 for 8 jars from the whole line.
Available at: Order online at the Reford Gardens Online Shop.

|Langley says 'It's time' as she closes beauty shop
|Written by Brenda Johnson Brandt
With more than four decades in the hair styling business, Holyoke's Betty Langley is opting for retirement and has closed Betty's Beauty Barr.
Langley admits that retirement is sooner than she had planned, but some health issues led to her decision to close. And now, as she's starting to feel better, she acknowledges, "I'm comfortable with the plan now."
A 1968 graduate of Greeley Beauty School, Langley worked for about a year in Sterling before moving to Holyoke. She worked for Helen McMillan at Helen's Doll-up Salon for several years before opening Betty's Beauty Barr 41 years ago, in the fall of 1973.
Her one-operator shop has been set up in the basement of her home at 533 S. Phelan Ave. With one station and two additional dryers, the set-up has worked well for Langley's business.
It was a fun nostalgia this past weekend when her styling chair was used in Phillips County Players' production of "Steel Magnolias."
Langley has tons of memories from her 41 years as a business owner. At one point, she had upwards of 10 standing weekly appointments plus numerous other regulars.
While she did some manicures for a while, haircare was her primary focus. "I especially liked perms," said Langley, noting she did a lot of those through the years.
Betty Langley is pictured in her home-based beauty shop, which she recently closed as she opts for retirement. The photo in the background was taken in downtown Holyoke in the late 1980s and includes her daughter and sister, as well as Langley. —Enterprise photo

Are there any special concerns about interstitial cystitis?
There is no evidence that PBS/IC increases the risk of bladder cancer; however, the long-term effects of PBS/IC have not been well-studied and require further observation and research.
Researchers have little information about the relationship between pregnancy and PBS/IC but believe that PBS/IC does not affect fertility or the health of the fetus. Some women have a remission from PBS/IC during pregnancy while others have more pain and pressure during the third trimester, possibly due to the weight of the fetus on the bladder.
Coping with PBS/IC
The emotional support of family, friends, and other individuals with PBS/IC is very important in helping patients cope with PBS/IC. Studies have found that patients with PBS/IC who are educated about PBS/IC and become involved in their own care do better than patients who do not. Support groups for people with interstitial cystitis also have been beneficial for many.
What is the prognosis (outcome) of interstitial cystitis?
PBS/IC is a chronic condition that is characterized by periods of relapse and remission. Doctors do not fully understand why the symptoms worsen at particular times or disappear and then reappear months or years later. Symptoms may be mild or severe and may vary in intensity even in the same individual over time. There is no cure for PBS/IC, and treatments are directed at reducing the severity of symptoms.
There has been no treatment that has been shown to be effective in slowing the progression of the disease or in preventing recurrences.

Charlottetown Wants To Set Up A Reverse 9-1-1 System
Imagine finding out that a hurricane or flooding may affect your home, with enough time to pack up your valuables and leave. Fortunately for Charlottetown residents, a plan is in the works to do just that.
The city of Charlottetown, PEI, are planning on setting up a Reverse 9-1-1 system, where the idea in case of disaster is more of a "don't call us, we'll call you" approach. The emergency communications system would alert residents in the city of impending hazardous situations or natural disasters, be it by phone, text, or email. The warnings can be targeted, and sent to the entire city, a neighbourhood, or just a few houses.
The city estimates the cost of setup for the system at $50,000; roughly the cost of a small Tim Horton's coffee per resident. Charlottetown Deputy Chief Gary McGuigan, believes the benefit outweighs the cost, saying, "It gives us the ability to contact local residents and alert them or notify them of an emergency."
Installed by New Brunswick's Sentinel Systems, the system was used earlier this year as a safeguard during the Royal Visit, and a similar system was used to notify Virginia Polytechnic Institute students to stay indoors during last weeks tragic shootings.

Lady Raiders Rout UC Santa Barbara, 68-41
Nov 20, 2003
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Cal Santa Barbara had the size, but No. 7 Texas Tech had the speed. And the 18th-ranked Gauchos had no answer for that Thursday night.
The Lady Raiders, using their athleticism at both ends of the floor, beat Santa Barbara 68-41 in the semifinals of the women's Preseason NIT.
Senior guard Jia Perkins had 22 points for Tech (3-0), which will host No. 15 Rutgers in Sunday's championship game.
"We were aggressive and more athletic in several spots," Lady Raiders coach Marsha Sharp said. "When you play people who are that much bigger than you, you have to let your athleticism take over. I thought our post players did a great job of playing physical. They tried to keep their players from going where they wanted to go."
Texas Tech used a 15-0 run midway through the second half to put away Santa Barbara (2-1). The Gauchos pulled within 41-30 on a 3-pointer by Brandy Richardson with 14:25 left and Tech scored on its next five possessions to make it 50-30 with 11:21 to play.
Natalie Ritchie hit three free throws, LaToya Davis scored inside and Chesley Dabbs connected on a 10-footer before Casey Jackson capped the run with a layup off a great pass by Dabbs.
Perkins then added four points and Jametra Clark finished the run by scoring inside for a 56-30 lead with 8:25 left. The Gauchos never got closer than 20 points the rest of the way.
"A lot of what happened had to do with Texas Tech," Gauchos coach Mark
French said. "Texas Tech is a very good team, and they did the things they do
very well. We have some talented offensive players, but we struggled on the
offensive end of the court."
Ritchie finished with 11 points for Tech, which held its third straight opponent to fewer than 50 points.
Lindsay Taylor had 12 points for the Gauchos.
"When we first stepped on the floor, we knew we were playing a good team, and we wanted to get the momentum from the start," Perkins said. "It went back and forth for a while, but we were able to start pulling away from them when we got things going."
Santa Barbara made just four of its first 20 shots, but still led 7-5. Tech then held the Gauchos scoreless for more than six minutes while running off 10 points.
"Apparently, I couldn't even hit Texas," said Santa Barbara's Kristen Mann, who finished 2-of-14 from the field. "It was frustrating. That's a credit to Texas Tech, and we didn't execute well enough."
Perkins scored four points in the run while Ritchie added a 3-pointer. Erin Grant and Jolee Ayers-Curry completed the scoring by combining for three free throws.

Saint Luke's Cord Blood program offers the area's only free cord blood donation. The program gives mothers delivering at our four metro hospitals as well as other hospitals in the Kansas City metro the option of making a lifesaving donation. Saint Luke's cord blood donations are able to help anyone – anywhere in the world.
Make a donation
If you plan to deliver your baby at Saint Luke's Hospital, Saint Luke's South Hospital, Saint Luke's East Hospital, or Saint Luke's North Hospital–Barry Road and want to donate your baby's cord blood, let your doctor know in advance. You must be preregistered, so please complete the registration forms below. We also collect cord blood at other area hospitals. Check with your doctor or hospital to see if the service is available.
What is cord blood?
During pregnancy, the placenta and blood within it serve as the lifeline of nourishment from mother to baby via the umbilical cord. Most umbilical cords are typically discarded after the baby is born.
However, this valuable blood is rich in hematopoietic stem cells (the same type of stem cells found in bone marrow). These "parent cells" create all of a person's blood cells: red cells that carry oxygen, white cells that fight disease and platelets that help blood to clot. Cord blood cells can treat leukemia, sickle cell anemia and dozens of other diseases and disorders.
Who benefits from cord blood?
More than 70 percent of children and adults requiring a bone marrow transplant do not have an immune-matched sibling. However, half of these people will be able to find a matched unrelated donor through the national bone marrow registries.
Saint Luke's launched the area's only free, public cord donation program at Saint Luke's Hospital in 2008. A second location opened at Saint Luke's South Hospital in 2010. Unlike private blood banks, which are only available to parents who pay hundreds to thousands of dollars to have their child's cord blood stored, public blood banks are available to everyone.
Saint Luke's Cord Blood program serves as a worldwide resource for children and adults who need a stem cell transplant. And collecting umbilical cord blood from donors of different ethnic backgrounds will benefit a larger number of patients.
How is cord blood collected?
Every pregnant patient at our participating hospitals will be asked whether she wants to donate her umbilical cord blood. After a patient agrees and her baby is born, the umbilical cord is clamped, cut, and separated from the baby.
Using a needle, blood is collected from the umbilical cord. The procedure is painless, noninvasive and doesn't interfere with the birthing process. While the procedure is virtually risk-free, a doctor will not collect the cord blood if he has any concern about the safety of the mother or baby.
How is cord blood processed?
After collecting donated cord blood cells, Saint Luke's then tests and processes the cells at Saint Luke's Hospital's stem cell processing laboratory.
Next, the cord blood is shipped to St. Louis for storage in the St. Louis Cord Blood Bank based at SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center. It's one of about 24 accredited public facilities in the United States that stores umbilical cord blood for clinical and basic research for stem cell transplantation.
Through this partnership, Saint Luke's is helping increase the world's supply of stem cell-rich umbilical cord blood and helping save people's lives throughout the world.
Isn't stem cell research controversial?
Yes, but the controversy centers around the way in which different stem cells are obtained. For embryonic stem cells, the embryo must be destroyed in order to be used for testing and research. However, cord blood is considered a source of adult stem cells like bone marrow. Because cord blood stem cells are collected after the birth of a healthy infant and pose no risk to the donating mother or baby, there are no ethical issues or controversy connected with the use of these cells.

Support Mencap's Christmas appeal
Tuesday 16 December 2008
Show someone you're thinking of them this Christmas.
People with a learning disability deserve the same chance as everyone else to spend Christmas with the people they choose, doing the things they want to do. However, many people with a learning disability still feel vulnerable and isolated. By supporting Mencap's Christmas appeal, you can help make someone's Christmas wish come true.
Ian (pictured) has profound and multiple learning disabilities, which make it difficult for him to do the things that other people take for granted, like going out and making friends. He felt very isolated and excluded. Read more about how Mencap has helped Ian make new friends.
Linda has two boys. Because of her learning disability she needs some support with everyday things, like housework. Linda did not receive this support and the authorities questioned her abilities. She felt very vulnerable and was told her children might be taken away. Find out how Mencap supported her to spend Christmas with her family.
By supporting our Christmas appeal, you can help us change someone's life and make it a Christmas they'll remember. You can also write a message of support.

: the derivation
since "e" is a constant, and the derivative of any constant is 0, we will consider taking the derivative of ex. Its derivative is as follows...
What does this mean? We see the graph of ex is:
The derivative of a function enables us to find the slope of any point of that function. For example, if f(x)=x2, then dy/dx=2x is the slope of the curve at any point x.
Here, we see that if x=1, then the slope (also the tangent of the curve at a given point) is two. If x=2, then the slope will be 4 and so on according to y=2x. Getting back to how this affects ex, we find that the derivative of exis also ex. The graphs of which are identical:

Elcano Turns To MAN For Propulsion
Spanish shipping group Empresa Naviera Elcano S.A. has placed an order for two medium-speed MAN L27/38 engines as part of a propulsion package for a new vessel: a 7000 dwt asphalt and oil products tanker, which will be built at Sedef Shipyard in Turkey.
The two six-cylinder engines will be constructed at the MAN Diesel & Turbo facility in Frederikshavn, Denmark. As main engines, they will each deliver 2040 kW at 800 r/min and be controlled by the MAN SaCoSone system.
Elcano has chosen the engines as part of a MAN Diesel & Turbo propulsion package that also comprises an Alphatronic 2000 propulsion control system, an MAN Alpha VBS Mk 5 CP propeller, and a double-reduction gearbox with multiple PTO clutches operating at 1200 kW at 1200 r/min.

A seattle woman who survived more than a week after being trapped upside down in her crumpled sport-utility vehicle told her husband this...
A Seattle woman who survived more than a week after being trapped upside down in her crumpled sport-utility vehicle told her husband this morning that she called 911 during her ordeal.
But the King County Sheriff's Office said there is no record of Tanya Rider calling for help.
"She may have pressed 911, but it may have been after her phone died," said Tanya Rider's husband, Tom Rider.
On Sept. 20, Tanya Rider, 33, apparently drove about 20 feet down a steep ravine overgrown with blackberry bushes and heavy brush after finishing her overnight shift at a Bellevue Fred Meyer store. Using cellphone technology, King County sheriff's deputies found her Thursday in the ravine off Highway 169 near Renton.

- Boeing tankers will be delivered to Air Force late — and incomplete
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal

Tom Rider said that his wife is angry with him for not rescuing her.
"She seems to blame me for not finding her fast enough," he said. "She remembers being trapped, clawing at the seat belt and not being able to get it off. That's tearing me up inside. I was hoping she wouldn't remember anything."
The Maple Valley woman was taken to the hospital in critical condition suffering from kidney failure, dehydration, a badly injured left leg, a broken collarbone and a deep gash on her forehead. She was upgraded to serious condition on Sunday.
Tom Rider said that surgeons at Harborview Medical Center will tend to his wife's leg today.
Since his wife has been located, Tom Rider has demanded that the sheriff's office be held accountable for not taking the case more seriously.
Tom Rider, 39, said he drove Highway 169, his wife's normal route home from work, more than seven times but never spotted her Honda Element. He said he begged the sheriff's office to search for her but was told that because she wasn't a minor, elderly or mentally ill, she didn't qualify to be ruled a missing person.
Rahr said on Friday that the case was quickly assigned to a missing-persons detective who talked to Tom Rider a day after he called 911.
Rahr said her department receives up to 700 missing-persons cases each year and that the vast majority involve someone who just failed to come home on time or "an adult who wants to leave on their own accord."
"We get hundreds, hundreds and hundreds of missing-persons reports each year," Rahr said on Friday. "When you get a healthy adult woman who has access to a great deal of money and the ability to get away, that's not going to raise a red flag."
Tom Rider said that Rahr has been receptive to meeting with him to talk about the way the search was handled. He is also demanding to meet with Gov. Christine Gregoire.

Report: Former Texas Tech quarterback Baker Mayfield to enroll at Oklahoma and walk on to football team
NORMAN — After years of reliably consistent quarterback play, Oklahoma went through most of the 2013 season without a firm offensive identity or a settled starter at the position.
The Sooners return four quarterbacks next season and Edmond Santa Fe standout Justice Hansen is expected to enroll early, likely making the group's meeting room more crowded than usual when spring practices open in March.
Then came Thursday's bombshell report regarding a potential sixth quarterback at Oklahoma this spring. Citing a source close to the player, the Austin American-Statesman reported Texas Tech's Baker Mayfield intends to enroll at OU in January and walk on to the football team.
The newspaper also reported Mayfield will appeal any transfer restrictions.
"We are very pleased and excited about the quarterback situation and young guys coming into our program," OU coach Bob Stoops said during a Thursday afternoon radio appearance on The Sports Animal when asked about Mayfield. "It isn't something we pursue."
Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury has reportedly blocked Mayfield from contact with any other Big 12 schools, so he couldn't even speak with OU coaches about walking on until he's officially enrolled as a student in Norman.
Mayfield started seven games as a true freshman in 2013, and even though he was a walk-on at Texas Tech, he's still bound by NCAA and Big 12 transfer rules.
The NCAA requires that most football players sit out one year after transferring to another Football Bowl Subdivision program, and because Kingsbury didn't grant him permission to contact other Big 12 schools, Mayfield also couldn't receive financial aid during that year off.
Big 12 Conference rules stipulate that intraconference transfers must not only sit out the NCAA-required one year, but also will lose a season of eligibility, meaning Mayfield would only have two years to play at OU beginning with the 2015 season.
Mayfield, who played at Lake Travis High School in Austin, Texas, is believed to be the first walk-on, true freshman quarterback to start a season opener for a Football Bowl Subdivision team.
In that game — a 41-23 Texas Tech win at SMU — Mayfield completed 43 of 60 pass attempts for 413 yards and four touchdowns, ran for another score and didn't throw any interceptions.
For the season, he completed 64.1 percent of his pass attempts for 2,315 yards, 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions, and was named the Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year by league coaches earlier this month.
Assuming no one transfers out, Oklahoma would have senior Blake Bell, sophomore Trevor Knight, junior Kendal Thompson, redshirt freshman Cody Thomas and Hansen when 2014 spring practices begin.
Knight was the Sooners' starting quarterback when the 2013 season opened, but lost the job to Bell after two games. Bell started the next eight contests, but after suffering a concussion against Iowa State, Knight started the Sooners' final two regular-season games at Kansas State and Oklahoma State.
Knight, though, left the Bedlam game late in the first half with a shoulder injury. OU coaches gave Thompson most of the third-quarter snaps in Stillwater, but he was ineffective.
Bell played the entire fourth quarter and was excellent, leading the Sooners on a last-minute touchdown drive that sealed OU's upset victory over the No. 6-ranked Cowboys.
Oklahoma is now preparing for a Jan. 2 showdown with No. 3 Alabama in the Sugar Bowl, and Stoops has said he won't name a starting quarterback before the game.

Syrian Arab Republic: Civilians flee within and from Syria

Internal displacement has been reported following the violent government crackdown on protesters, particularly in Dara'a where the government has deprived the population of electricity, food and running water since 27 April. Government forces have continued to use live ammunition and tanks against protesters in civilian areas. The government's violent repression of the protests, which started on 11 March, had by 29 April caused well over 400 reported deaths and the destruction of houses, schools and mosques, resulting in displacement.
Reports of Syrian civilians trying to flee have multiplied. As of 29 April there were several reports of over a thousand individuals fleeing Syrian into Akkar in Lebanon in fear of their lives. On the southern border with Jordan, hundreds of families reportedly fled Daraa to Ramtha, despite the closure of the border by the Syrian authorities. Information from within Syria has been particularly difficult to verify. Dozens of cases of extrajudicial arrest have been reported, as well as cases of torture, including of children, despite the lifting of the emergency laws on 21 April.
The international community has been slow in responding to the crisis and failed to secure even a statement by the UN Security Council calling on Syria to stop the violence against civilians. However, on 29 April, the UN's Human Rights Council adopted a resolution calling for an urgent investigation into the killings and other human rights violations in Syria.

Despite undergoing much scrutiny this year for changes to structure, pricing, locations and programming, the Tribeca Film Festival seems to have beefed up their Midnight and genre selections for the year, leaping miles ahead of the 2006 content. Ranging from some of the year's most creative and original, darker work like Gyorgy Palfi's grotesquely beautiful "Taxidermia" and Ha Yoo's perfectly layered gangster mini-epic "A Dirty Carnival" (both so strong that Tribeca elevated them to the Showcase section of the festival) to the more dramatic, less shocking side of midnight like Teng Huatao's composed ghost love story "The Matrimony", the genre programming of TFF 2007 covers lots of ground, with a few fun gems along the way.
The biggest surprise in the Midnight program was the tongue-and-cheek awareness and delivery of Sabastian Gutierrez's "Rise: Blood Hunter". Constructed as a schlocky, b-vampire flick starring Lucy Liu as a crossbow wielding reporter on a quest to kill the vampire that bit her and Michael Chiklis as the cop who aids her, the film teeters carefully on the line of being junk. However, Gutierrez's writing keeps it in check. Though not the poised mockery that is Eli Roth's "Cabin Fever", the script for "Rise" is peppered with self-conscious winks to the audience - the occasional dead-pan zinger just when you thought the action had fallen into simple, late-night TV programming. One gets the sense that Gutierrez consciously wanted to create that kind of guilty pleasure, but didn't want to be judged for the film's lack of cinematic integrity. It pays off, as does the decision to portray vampires as more of a cult than the traditional monster. There's no garlic or stakes or crosses to ward off evil. The focus is kept on the action. The story and camp that make "Rise" worth a look.
On the flip side of the coin are two malformed, misguided monster movies that represent the weakest of the midnight lineup. The first is Matthew Leutwyler's "Unearthed", a trashy monster movie that is destined for the dustiest corners of every local video store. In a small New Mexican desert town, an archeologist accidentally unleashes a man-size lizard-esque monster (courtesy of Leutwyler's unimaginative script) out for the blood of the locals. The film drags its feet from death to death, pretending that low-budget means no ideas. This makes it the perfect companion piece to Jim Mickle's tediously underdeveloped "Mulberry Street" in which virus-carrying rats run rampant throughout downtown Manhattan, turning unsuspecting residents into giant rodents. "Unearthed" suffers from being a textbook outline of terror, more dull than offensive, featuring Charlie Murphy's name on the cast list as its only camp value. "Mulberry", on the other hand, is plagued with a lack of character, making the film feel extremely unfocused and confusing, as well as reveling too deep in its low budget aesthetic. Though both contain a strong sense of location and a fear grown from the everyday animals so native and prevalent to those regions, neither seems to manage to plant a firm stake in their material.
Luckily, the festival did feature one film that made the bloodthirsty animal motif work, though albeit in a more comedic sense. Jonathan King's "Black Sheep" is wild romp from New Zealand that pays close homage to the gooey, gory early films of Peter Jackson ("Dead Alive", "Bad Taste"). The plot centers on an idealistic farmer who wants to revolutionize his product by genetically modifying his sheep. Needless to say, the plan goes haywire and the furry animals run amok, killing everything in their path. Though it may not reach any level of brilliance, "Black Sheep" is a laugh-out-loud riot.
A little less on the genre train, but no less midnight, is the gross-out film to end them all, "Dirty Sanchez". The theatrical edition of the popular British TV show - an almost mirror image of America's "Jackass" - "Sanchez" documents four tattoo clad skater-punks through a world of disgusting hijinks based upon the seven deadly sins. Unlike the grainy, handheld video of its US counterpart, the film is built with a more cinematic aesthetic, resembling the high-speed gangster comedies of Guy Ritchie and giving the audience a higher level of detachment from the revolting activities the quartet undertakes. Perhaps this is why their actions are pushed to a more appalling level, sometimes in unwatchable sequences. Unfortunately, the slick camera work and rapid cutting creates a less personal sense of camaraderie. Where "Jackass" invites the audience in on the joke, "Sanchez" presents it with gusto, glamorizing the stunts instead of giving them the sense of drunken backyard antics and, therefore, providing a more intense effect.
However, despite the cringe-worthy factor of "Dirty Sanchez", easily the most unsettling film in this year's TFF selection is the Dowdle Brothers sophomore feature, "The Poughkeepsie Tapes". Shifting gears from their first feature, an offbeat comedy entitled "The Dry Spell", John Erick and Drew Dowdle take a turn for the sadistic with this faux-documentary about the collection and analysis of the home videos shot by a ruthless serial killer in upstate New York. Cutting back and forth between interviews and experts of footage from the tapes themselves, "Poughkeepsie" tells the story of both the killer's development, continuously changing his patterns to outsmart the police, and the manhunt that breaks out after a local girl goes missing, only to be held as a sex slave and victim of Stockholm Syndrome in the killer's basement.
By far the strongest sections in the film are the content of the killer's home videos. Distorted, grainy VHS recordings pollute the eyes with images of terrified victims in discomfort and horrific sound effects. At first glance, the fake interviews appear to be throwaway with performances ranging from passably realistic to hilariously stilted. However, the level of intensity that the supposed home videos reach is so stirring that the film almost needs a cardboard backdrop to remind you it isn't real.
"Poughkeepsie Tapes" plays like a shock film without the exploitation, the kind of snuff footage passed around from friend to friend that satisfies the morbid curiosity of staring at a three legged dog, but cookie-cut into more digestible pieces that give the flavor without the sting. Though it does have it share of disturbing imagery, the film manages to keep most of the actual gore off-screen, therefore shying away from the perverse imagination found in pop Hollywood fare like "Saw", but still containing the raw shock value of those films with a battery psychological torture. Also, much like the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre", the horror comes from a very real world place. Beyond being non-supernatural, the killer is an unglamorized entity with as little special ability as morals. The story was constructed from pieces of the most disturbing news events - everything in it is possible, most of it already happened. In this, I fear "The Poughkeepsie Tapes'" greatest strength might also be its downfall, classifying it much closer to watching "Schindler's List" than "Nightmare on Elm Street". Still, at some point, the voyeuristic quality does come through, even if in a less fun capacity, and the movie is simply the most riveting midnight film Tribeca has to offer this year.

The 2016 Kia Sorento is an all-new design this year. In addition to new styling inside and out, this midsize crossover SUV is a little bigger in all dimensions, offers a plethora of new high-tech options, and offers a choice of three different engines.
Changes to the Kia Sorento SUV for 2015 are mild and include minor alterations to the grille and front end, the addition of a navigation option without having to upgrade to UVO and the Infinity sound system, and a more fuel-efficient 4-cylinder engine.
The 2016 Kia Sorento builds on everything we already like about Kia's midsize crossover SUV. The new Sorento is bigger, but not so much so that it sacrifices the old Sorento's maneuverability. The 2016 Sorento also has more high-tech features, offering things like adaptive cruise control, an all-around-view camera, and Siri Eyes Free for your iPhone. You have a new engine to choose from, a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that splits the difference in performance and fuel economy between the standard 2.4-liter 4-cylinder and the upgrade 3.3-liter V6 engine. The styling inside and out is sharp and spot-on, and the driving experience is also markedly improved. We'll put it this way: If you liked the old Sorento, you'll love this new one.

If your child has a sore throat, cough, or runny nose, you might expect the doctor to prescribe antibiotics. But most of the time, children don't need antibiotics to treat a respiratory illness. In fact, antibiotics can do more harm than good. Here's why:
If your child has a bacterial infection, antibiotics may help. But if your child has a virus, antibiotics will not help your child feel better or keep others from getting sick.
Usually, antibiotics do not work against colds, flu, bronchitis, or sinus infections because these are viruses. Sometimes bacteria cause sinus infections, but even then the infection usually clears up on its own in a week or so. Many common ear infections also clear up on their own without antibiotics.Some sore throats, like strep throat, are bacterial infections. Symptoms include fever, redness, and trouble swallowing. However, most children who have these symptoms do not have strep throat. Your child should have a strep test to confirm that it's strep, and then, if they're needed, the doctor will prescribe antibiotics.
Side effects from antibiotics are a common reason that children go to the emergency room. The drugs can cause diarrhea or vomiting, and about 5 in 100 children have allergies to them. Some of these allergic reactions can be serious and life threatening.
Overusing antibiotics also encourages stronger bacteria to grow. The stronger bacteria do not respond to antibiotics. This means that the next time your child needs antibiotics for a bacterial infection, they will not work as well. This is sometimes called "antibiotic resistance." The stronger bacteria can spread from your child to other family members and schoolmates, causing infections that are more difficult to cure and more costly to treat.
Most antibiotics do not cost a lot. But money spent on drugs that are not needed is money wasted. Also, in severe cases, treatment of infections that are antibiotic-resistant can cost as much as $29,000.When does your child need antibiotics?

Family Law
Family Law Questions? Ask a Family Lawyer Online.
I did not ask if the divorce is contested or not. I asked what the forms required to commence proceedings were.
Also, am I allowed to represent myself in a contested divorce in Florida?
please address the second question, am I allowed to represent myself in a contested divorce in Florida. Thank you.
I know it's been said that the person who represents himself in court has a fool for a client. My problem is lack of funds, as is my wife's. Any suggestions? Maybe an attorney to review my filings instead of completing them? I'm a CPA and have worked with litigation support in family law cases. I know my way around the financial affidavit, lifestyle analysis, and equitable distribution schedules (even though these may not be necessary in this case). I think i can cover the filings but may need an attorney. What say ye?

Test Prep Classes
The College Coordinator's Office is committed to working with our students beginning in their freshman year to guide and encourage them as they navigate the college admissions process. We work collaboratively alongside each student to ensure that he meets important deadlines, researches a wide array of colleges, registers for tests, and successfully completes applications. We are dedicated to ensuring that our students are well-prepared as they tackle any challenges they may face while working to achieve their goals in high school, while also working with them to develop a groundwork for success in their higher education aspirations.
The introduction to the college application process begins freshman year by encouraging students and their parents to log onto Naviance, a robust college search engine. One key tool that Naviance offers is the Learning Style Inventory (LSI), an online assessment which diagnoses students' unique learning styles based on an analysis of their personal preferences in 22 different areas. A personally tailored report identifies each student's unique environmental, emotional, sociological, and physical preferences. This information can then be used to personalize the college search process based on each student's strengths. Early on in the college application process we also work on resume building with a focus on meaningful extra-curricular activities.
Sophomore year, we work with students to delve deeper into the vast features of Naviance with a special focus on the Needs Assessment, PLAN test interpretation, and the Personality Type Survey.
Junior year begins with formulating a plan for higher education with a focus on intensive college research. A Career Interest Inventory test is also administered. Periodic small group workshops covering several topics related to the college application process, including essay writing, college visits, EA, ED I, ED II, SAT's, ACT, SAT Subject Tests, and important deadlines, are offered for juniors and seniors.
Senior year, we meet with students to discuss, review, and enhance essays and resumes, as well as finalize college choices and submit applications.
Meetings will be held with parents regularly throughout the four year college preparatory and application process. Parents will also be kept abreast of information concerning financial aid and graduation requirements.
College Tuesdays/On-Site DecisionsCollege Tuesdays is a weekly event which features a variety of different colleges and universities stationed in a common area outside of the cafeteria so that students can learn about different schools at their leisure. Click here to view the 2015 College Tuesdays schedule. On-Site Decisions - Many schools visit Xaverian in order to provide our students with immediate acceptance decisions and financial aid information. Please view the College Tuesdays/On-Site Decisions tab in the Parents section of the website for more information.
Throughout the year, the guidance department receives notification for local and national scholarships as well as scholarships for specific colleges/universities. A full updated list may be viewed here:

Steelers Colors: Black and Yellow [Video]carolyncastiglia
If you're a Steelers fan, chances are you've been playing Wiz Khalifa's song Black and Yellow on repeat for the last week. A friend of mine from Pittsburgh sent me the G-Mix version of the song featuring Snoop Dogg, including the great Snoop lyric, "Don't get your clique served, so much black and yellow you would think I was from Pittsburgh." I'm a Steelers fan by extension, since I have family in the 'burgh. But when I played the song – in front of my 5-year-old – I quickly discovered it's not a radio edit. If you're looking for a version of the song yinz can jam to with your kids, here's the video for the clean version, below. Twirl that Terrible Towel!

text: Feeling bloated? Discover 6 tips to heal a bloated belly A bloated belly can be very uncomfortable. Here are six tips from our health expert that will help your stomach get back to normal. By Dr. Joey Shulman DC, RNCP 2012-11-08 00:00:00 ©iStockphoto.com/tbradford If you are struggling to button up your jeans due to a bloated belly you are not alone. In fact, a feeling of distention and tightening in the stomach region is quite a common complaint. The good news is that there are several natural approaches that can help reduce dietary bloating and have you to feel better fast.Bloating is typically caused by a buildup of gas in the intestinal tract. There are several causes that can lead to bloating, including eating too much fatty food, poor digestion and food allergies or sensitivities. Bloating can also be linked to your menstrual cycle. To reduce the symptoms of bloating, try the following steps.6 tips to easy a bloated stomach1. Eat 25 to 35 grams of fibre per dayConstipation often leaves us feeling bloated and "stuffed." To reduce bloating and promote bowel health, aim to eat a combination of soluble and insoluble fibre sources each day. Soluble fibre options include flaxseeds, carrots, oranges and barley, while insoluble fibre options can be found in dark green leafy vegetables, such as broccoli, kale, spinach and collard greens, as well as nuts and seeds.2. Watch the gum chewing!Chewing gum causes you to swallow air bubbles, which may lead to that bloated feeling many of us experience. Instead of chewing gum, try chewable digestive enzymes, which help break down your food and aid in digestion. Chewable digestive enzymes can be found in most health food stores.3. Reduce your sodium intakeTry decreasing your salt intake wherever possible to help reduce your bloated belly. Salt causes your cells to retain water, which can contribute to bloating and abdominal distention. Try substituting the salt in your diet with garlic powder, oregano or black pepper. This will help lower your sodium intake and reduce your bloat. 4. Drink 2 liters of water per dayMake sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to help keep your body hydrated. Drinking 1 to 2 liters of water per day will help flush out anything in your system that may be causing bloating. 1 2

I'm getting really annoyed by all of his dilly dallying... either talk to her or not, for Christ's sakes. I just want to see how it develops so I can get over with it. I'm tired of every single stupid chapter of him thinking and pining over Hanami while he randomly has sex with Akira. I mean, at first, I was alright with it, because it was mostly like a couple pages of Hanami and mostly development between Akira and Aoki... I thought maybe Hanami would just be a quick infatuation and an inspiration for some drawing, but it's gone too far. He's acting all prideful and crap, wanting to be able to support himself and be with Akira, but at the same time he literally doesn't make the connection that thinking about Hanami might be a little... wrong. He never thinks, oh, hey, maybe since I'm getting kinda serious with Akira, maybe blushing all around the place or wondering if Hanami has a girlfriend is bad.
I dunno, I really like this manga otherwise. The art is nice, the story and characters were nice, and it was a good change of pace with an older woman/younger guy that isn't all about the age gap (most of the time it's like... workaholic woman, milf, whatever). But if this is just going to end sadly, I kind of want to stop. It's just not why I started the manga, I guess.

NEW DELHI: For years, Preeti Gupta nursed a deep feeling of helplessness. The 42-year-old mother of three always wanted to do more for her children, but her farmer husband's limited earnings meant that those wishes would have remained just a dream.
Always a housewife who had never strayed out of home to work before, doing a job was hard to imagine, and, with her limited education - she has studied only until class seven - it was probably also hard to get.

I am having problems with my visual studio 2010 where its memory consumption increases quickly while the application is open. I unistalled all plug ins and now just have the clean version. But while I have the solution open, the memory increases from ~300K to 1GB to such a point if it hasnt crashed, I need to kill the process. The version of the VS is professional and it happens for different solutions.
I feel it may down to the locking on VS2010 config files eating in to memory but thats a guess.
Anyone have similar issues or how I might go about finding what the issues is?

Shiny Objects — No. 8
1. Deutschland83
Sundance TV is the place to see this terrific German-language series set in Cold War 1983. Jonas Nay is the charming star of this multi-layered spy story set in East and West Germany amid intense threat of nuclear war. There are all kinds of plot twists and switchbacks that will keep you guessing. The series — which Grantland's Andy Greenwald has proclaimed the best TV series of the summer — is five episodes into an eight-episode run (at least for the first season).Underlying the storylines is the penetration of synthpop into pop culture at that time, and listeners my age will fondly remember some of those songs (including "99 Luftballons"). There's a great scene where Nay's character — who grew up insulated from progress in East Germany — discovers the joys of

Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
So, here's the thing you need to do. First, engage an attorney versed in criminal law NOW...preferably one who formerly worked as a prosecutor because they typically have a good relationship with the prosecutor. The best scenario, and where he/she will be most advantageous, is for them to talk the prosecutor into dismissing the case before it even goes to trial. Second, if it does go to trial, your attorney will probably want to push for a deferred adjudication where if your son stays out of trouble for a period of time, usually 90 to 180 days, it gets dismissed; if you're lucky, you may get it dismissed by the judge.
I hope this has given you the guidance you were seeking. I wish you the best of luck!
If you have a follow-up question, please remember that there might be a delay between your follow up questions and my answers because I may be helping other clients or taking a break.
The information given here is not legal advice. As all states have different intricacies in their laws, the information given is general only. This communication does not establish an attorney-client relationship with you. I hope this answer has been helpful to you.
Their case is not very strong. The burden in a criminal case is "beyond a reasonable doubt" so you have a pretty good chance this won't even get to trial. The cops don't play fair...they try to intimidate and scare you...that's why it's important that you have a professional on your side that can even up the fight.
