The next Resident Evil film, now titled Extinction, is gearing up for production. Variety reports that the key leads for the third entry in the videogame-based horror series have been signed up.
Reporting for zombie-killing duty are Milla Jovovich as Alice, and co-star Sienna Guillory is involved again as Jill Valentine. Also returning are Mike Epps, Oded Fehr, and Iain Glen. Not all these cast announcements are surprises &#Array;¿after all, the series is practically built around Milla Jovovich &#Array; but it's the first firm word of Guillory's involvement in particular.
The story, as previously reported, takes place in the Nevada desert following the worldwide zombie apocalypse. Filming should get underway next month in Mexico, delayed two months from the production's original plans to shoot in Australia.
Russell Mulcahy, who directed the first two Highlander films, will be helming Resident Evil: Extinction based on a screenplay by Paul W.S. Anderson, who directed the original Resident Evil picture.

At the beginning of this year, Twitter introduced its Vine app. But should you be considering it as part of your brand's marketing mix? We took a look at the engagement rates to find out, the results may surprise you...
For Those Who Don't Know
Vine is a mobile application that allows users to create short, looping videos in six- second intervals. These videos encourage users to express themselves in a fun, straight-to-the-point manner, since longer content is prohibited. It's only natural that Twitter soon acquired the app, as they mirror each other through their use of brief messages and entertaining snapshots.
Do you know why you should be posting videos to Facebook?
YouTube, however, has been prominent since its inception in 2005. In fact, its 1 billion monthly viewers led experts to conclude in March, that it is a more popular medium than television.
But do fans prefer the new shorter video format or are they more attracted by a trusted YouTube video upload when visiting Twitter Profiles?
Vine Catches Up!
Tweeted YouTube videos earned a 0.048% Engagement Rate. Compare this to Tweets containing Vine uploads which earned a 0.031% Engagement Rate. That means in the six months since Vine was introduced to social media, it has almost caught up to YouTube uploads on Twitter in terms of engagement. This is amazing considering that for most of its life, Vine was only available on iPhones and iPads.
Mobile Makes it Easier
One reason that Vine may be gaining such popularity is because of how simple it is to upload onto the Twitter platform. After downloading the app, users can shoot the video through their smartphone, and upload through the phone's without the need for professional camera work, editing, and, therefore, significant budgets. It also takes seconds rather than minutes to view. In a previous study, we found that 66% of people use mobile to tweet about brands, so any tweet friendly format is an extra bonus. As we mentioned, the Vine app was previously available only for iPhone and iPad users, who account for about 44% of people who use mobile to tweet about brands. Earlier this month, Vine became available to Android users, who make up 20% of mobile Tweeters, which is expected to create a larger pool of Vine videos.
Jump on the Social Media Bandwagon
When developing social media content, it is always a good idea to continue to market through trusted channels, but why not make room to experiment? Riding the coattails of a trending topic, or app such as Vine, will give your brand a clear advantage when communicating through Twitter.
To throw another social media video-share into the mix, it has been rumored that Instagram will also have video capabilities. TechCrunch states, "On June 20, a source says Facebook will unveil that Instagram, its popular photo-sharing app, will begin to let people also take and share short videos. Call it the Vine effect." This addition, to the already popular Instagram, may provide you with yet another great way to market your brand.
Let's See How Brands Do It
UK cereal brand, Weetabix, had a Vine tweet with the highest engagement rate (9%) throughout May, with a video demonstrating how easily it is to consume their product while on-the-go. This video, accompanied with a call-to-action really got Twitter fans moving.
RT for your chance to WIN 2 month's supply of #WeetabixOnTheGo https://t.co/fjOHDzV1Gz— Weetabix (@weetabix) May 11, 2013
The fruit drink, TriNa, had the YouTube tweet with the highest engagement rate during this time period, at 42%! In this video, the brand included musician Dani Martin to express their brand's message and the text to advertise their new time slot on Telecinco y Cuatro.
Os dejo nuestro nuevo spot, que se empezará a emitir a las 20:30h en Telecinco y Cuatro. ¡Estamos de vuelta! http://t.co/BF3nQDrJve— TriNa (@TriNaalNatural) May 23, 2013
Note: During this study, Vine was only available through iPhone and iPad. The app is now available for Android. We will conduct a study in the next coming weeks to see if it impacts engagement.

"This I believe"
Working in a medium-security prison for the last ten years as a wellness education specialist, I have a special appreciation for the needs of people both inside and outside the walls. I believe that if our society is to survive over the long hall we must not remove programs from prison inmates, but enhance them. We currently have over 2,000,000 people behind bars in the United States and the numbers keep growing. Our prison budgets are also growing by very large amounts to the detriment of other essential programs for society. What many people don't know is that the vast majority of these men and women will eventually be released from prison. When they return to our society, do we want them to be contributors to society or do we want them to continue to prey on society in some fashion?
Years ago, it was possible for inmates in a number of states to take college courses while in prison though this is far less likely today. Many of these individuals went on to complete undergraduate degrees and eventually became successful in professions deemed both honorable and legal. These men and women helped prove over and over again that money invested in education gives back far more than the initial investment.
I believe that educational programs are not the only essential type of program for inmates. Sports participation programs are also essential. So essential in fact, that I believe that inmates who don't regularly participate in one of more of them are more likely to get re-incarcerated after reentering society. They are also more likely to behave better while incarcerated and learn many valuable lessons that they can use for the rest of their lives.
Some listeners might have a quick, gut reaction that rumbles that inmates should not be provided with any sports programs while they are doing time. Perhaps that they should be breaking rocks, digging trenches or other jobs that might need to be done. My belief is that sports programs do many positive things for the inmates that will ultimately better prepare them for a life in free society and that would ultimately be a win/win proposition.
Among other things, inmates can learn from sports participation are things such as respect, patience, tolerance, skill development, fairness, responsibility, rule memorization, and teamwork. Listen while I repeat that… respect, patience, tolerance, skill development, fairness, responsibility, rule memorization, and teamwork. All these are important things to master by all members of all societies, not just those who are incarcerated.
If we make sure that prisons have sufficient funds to provide for sports equipment, then we will be making an investment in these individuals and thus in the short and long-term future of our own society. Recreation and sports is a privilege that truly should be for all people.

H.J. Heinz Co. recently launched a first-ever consumer ad effort on behalf of its food-service division to entreat people to "insist on Heinz" ketchup in restaurants. And Kraft Foods has garnered attention for its Kraft salad dressing brand in a current Burger King print campaign and for its Oreo brand in upcoming TV spots for Dairy Queen.
growing area
"Most manufacturers have not taken food service quite as seriously as the more traditional retail space, but food-service dollars are growing faster than retail and will be more than half of total food expenditures by 2010," said Lauri Kien Kotcher, partner of McKinsey & Co.
Ms. Kien Kotcher recently addressed a group of food manufacturer CEOs at a Grocery Manufacturers Association meeting, offering advice on how to take their brands into away-from-home outlets.
"Pure and simple, that's where the growth is," said Rick Abraham, VP at GMA, pointing to industry numbers that show retail food sales flat to negative, and food service growing at a healthier 2% to 3% clip. As a result, he said, "we are seeing a trend of going to the consumer to tell them `you're getting brand X if you're going in to restaurants' as an attempt to get food-service operators to use their products."
Heinz this summer launched an unprecedented TV, print and outdoor effort from Ten/United, Pittsburgh, showing the disappointment of restaurant customers if they aren't given Heinz Ketchup (AdAge.com QwikFIND aan86f).
"Post 9/11, with the economy soft, a lot of the restaurant chains that use our product are flat to down slightly, and in cutting costs, they may consider going to a different brand of ketchup," said Jeff Berger, president of Heinz North America Foodservice division. Although he cited statistics that four out of five U.S. restaurants use Heinz's 14-oz. bottle on the table, he said, "it's a real good time to reinforce to operators that it's important for Heinz ketchup to be visible."
Funds for the campaign came from the $100 million that Heinz CEO Bill Johnson has pledged to reinvest behind core brands as the CEO "is a big supporter of food service," Mr. Berger said, adding that the division is "optimistic" that the campaign be continued beyond its scheduled 13-week run.
enhancing quality
The co-branded advertising waged from quick-service restaurants on behalf of Kraft brands-from Burger King for its new Chicken Caesar Salad and 30-second spots in September for a new Peanut Butter Oreo Double Delight Blizzard at Dairy Queen-is not necessarily ground-breaking, as such initiatives have been developed before. But, according to Judy Karner, director of marketing services for Kraft Food Service, "There is greater receptivity now from food-service operators to brand our products in their restaurants," in part, she said, because of studies that show 48% of consumers feel brands enhance the quality image of a restaurant.
A Burger King spokesperson said that, "By using a brand that has such positive recognition with consumers we're telling consumers that we're using a high-quality dressing."
When possible, Kraft, like other branded manufacturers, works with food-service operators to promote co-branded menu items in advertising, sometimes helping fund those initiatives and sometimes "finding that the use of our brands is enough," Ms. Karner said. For Kraft, such exposure is critical to its strategy to be "wherever the consumer is going to be consuming food-at home or away from home."
Last month, McDonald's launched a "Kid Treat Menu" featuring products co-branded with General Mills' Yoplait Go-Gurt and Fruit Roll-Up brands and Dannon Co.'s Danimals, which it supported with a large-scale TV effort.

CHARMOUTH (ST. MATTHEW), a parish, and formerly a market-town, in the union of AXMINSTER, hundred of WHITCHURCH-CANONICORUM, Bridport division of DORSET, 2 miles (N. E. by E.) from Lyme Regis; containing 620 inhabitants. This place derives its name from its situation at the mouth of the river Char, which here falls into the English Channel. It was the scene of a sanguinary battle in 833, between the Saxons, under Egbert, and the Danes, who, though many of them were killed in the action, yet maintained their post, and made good their retreat to their ships. Another battle was fought in 840, when the Danes defeated the Saxons under Ethelwulf, but, without improving their victory, precipitately embarked, leaving their booty behind. In the 7th of Edward I. the abbot of the monastery of Ford, in the vicinity, obtained for the inhabitants the grant of a weekly market and an annual fair. After the battle of Worcester, Charles II. and his suite fled to the place, intending to escape into France; but, being frustrated in that expectation, quitted it without delay. On this occasion, a blacksmith having discovered, from the manner of shoeing the horse of Lord Wilmot, who had remained behind, that the party came from the north, a pursuit was instantly commenced, but without success. The village is pleasantly situated at the base of a steep hill, round which the road was carried in 1758; and, from its situation on the coast, is a place of resort for sea-bathing. The scenery is enlivened by the river Char, over which is a bridge leading to the village; and the neighbouring cliffs abound with martial pyrites, bitumen, and other inflammable matter, which after heavy rains emit a vivid flame, and were particularly observable in the year 1751. The living is a discharged rectory, valued in the king's books at £8. 16. 8., and in the gift of certain Trustees: the tithes have been commuted for £ 120, and the glebe comprises 6 acres. The church was lately rebuilt. There is a place of worship for Independents.

If you have a business providing instruction in Texas or to Texans, including schools located in Texas providing only distance education, you must be licensed unless you are exempt from licensure or are an out-of-state distance education school.
The Texas Workforce Commission regulates most types of career schools and colleges. However, some schools such as those that train barbers, cosmetologists (hair dressers), massage therapists, aviation mechanics and realtors are licensed by other agencies.
The Texas Workforce Commission issues a Certificate of Approval to licensed schools. If your school is licensed, you are able to publish that your school is approved and regulated by TWC. If your school is operating without a license or exemption, you may be required to pay a penalty, pay refunds to all students or halt instruction.
To get a license for a career school or college, you must submit a complete application with supporting documents and required fees to TWC.
Our goal is to issue a Certificate of Approval within 90 days. The time it takes for your school's application review will depend on the completeness of your application and the timeliness of your responses to requests for information and revisions. If the application is not completed, TWC will close the application. Schools may begin the application process again when prepared to do so.
Your application fees depend on the size of your school and the number of applications submitted for staff. A minimum fee for a small school with one director, one instructor and one representative is $1,131.
TWC is here to help with the licensing process. For assistance, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 866-256-6333, option 3.
If you plan to offer any degree program or programs for certain vocations you will need to work with another agency in addition to TWC. For details, see Licensing Coordination Information for Career School Programs.
The following programs require licenses from both TWC and another agency.
If you plan to offer degree programs, you need to contact the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board
To find instructions, forms and samples for a new school application, see the following resources:
You will apply as either a Residence (vocational) School or a Seminar School. A Residence School offers at least one program: a sequence of subjects that teaches skills and knowledge required for employment in a specified occupation. Residence schools may offer seminars as well as programs. Seminar Schools offer only seminars: courses of instruction to enhance a student's career.
You also will apply as either a large or small school.
Your school is considered large for licensing purposes if it meets either of these conditions:
Your school is considered small for licensing purposes if it meets both of these conditions:
You will need to contact a Public Accountant to begin the required financial statements. Requirements differ depending on the type of ownership of your school-- sole proprietor, corporation, or partnership, which are explained in the General Information Sheet, Evidence Necessary to Establish Financial Stability for a School (CSC-016)
You will need to submit your catalog and enrollment agreement with your application.
Your school must have a school director, at least one representative and at least one instructor, all approved by TWC. One person can fill more than one of the required roles. Having a director of education is optional. You can find information on staff continuing education requirements on the Ongoing Requirements for Licensed Schools page.
Your School Director must sign and attest to assurances that include the director's responsibility for the quality of instruction, the adequacy of facilities, the character and qualification of school staff, and the proper maintenance of student records.
Representatives solicit and enroll students for the school. Sole Proprietors and some partnerships are not required to have representatives. You must renew your list of Representatives each year.
Before they solicit students, School Representatives must be approved by TWC and pass TWC's free, online training on state rules about soliciting students: Representative Training for Career Schools and Colleges.
You must list at least one Instructor for each subject that will be taught. An instructor may teach more than one subject. Instructors cannot be students in the same or similar program in which they teach. Within the first three months of teaching at your school, any inexperienced teachers must receive professional development to learn and develop effective teaching strategies.
Your school may have a Director of Education. The director of education must meet the same qualifications as an instructor and also must have one year of employment as a post-secondary instructor, one year of employment as a supervisor and at least a bachelor's degree.
Your School Director is responsible for appointing a staff designee. The staff designee serves as a liaison person when the director is not available during a TWC survey visit to the school. The director must ensure other staff are aware of the responsibilities of this person and that the staff designee is trained in survey visit procedures.
The staff designee appointment is a step in the application process for an incoming School Director. If there is a need for an incumbent School Director to appoint a new Staff Designee, use the Change in Staff Designee Only form.
Your school may have a Director of Admissions. The director of admissions is not approved by TWC, but you must have documentation that prior to employment at your school the director of admissions had one year of management or administrative experience and one year of admissions experience.
Your school facilities and equipment must support the program(s) your school offers. You do not have to have facilities and equipment to apply for licensure, but TWC must visit and survey your school before your school can be approved.
Your school may require students to complete an externship or internship as part of their program. When you plan an outline of experiences and competencies for this training, students can gain insight into their chosen occupation.
It is your school's responsibility to arrange adequate externship or internship sites and supervision for all students enrolled in the program.
For more information on externship and internship requirements, see the New Program/Seminar Application. Our Sample New Program Application includes an example of a letter to a potential externship site and a sample extern evaluation form.
Career schools and colleges are regulated in Texas under Career Schools and Colleges Law - Texas Education Code, Chapter 132 and Career Schools and Colleges Rules - Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 807. The state law and rules guide TWC's review of your school materials and inform career schools of the expectations of the state of Texas. Your familiarity with the law and the rules will benefit your school and your students.
You cannot advertise until your school has been approved. The law and rules provide extensive guidance about career school advertisements, for example:
Read the advertising rules carefully.
TWC considers statements made by school representatives equivalent to advertising the school. Your representatives can recruit students only at educational settings, job fairs, or organized meetings, and there are limits on what they can say about financial aid. Your school is responsible for statements made by your representatives.
To get a license for a career school or college, you must submit a complete application with supporting documents and required fees to TWC. Refer to the New School Application Checklist to ensure that your materials are complete. Submit your Fee Sheet with your application.
Our goal is to review your application and reply within five business days of receiving your application materials. If we request revisions or additional materials, you need to respond completely within 30 calendar days. The cycle of review and response may occur as many as three times in our efforts to approve your school within 90 calendar days. If you do not fully respond to our requests within the 30 calendar days, your application may be closed, and you may need to reapply and pay a new application fee.
If your application is not complete and may be closed your TWC contact will let you know, and you will have an opportunity to respond. TWC will notify you formally by certified mail when your application has been closed.
We are available to answer your questions as you work on your application or our requests for revision or more materials. For assistance, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 866-256-6333, option 3.
Accreditation refers to a voluntary process in which postsecondary schools and colleges apply to an independent, non-governmental body to review their school and programs against defined standards. To remain accredited, a school must meet minimum standards established by the accreditor.
Accreditation is not required for TWC to license a career school or college to operate in Texas. However, to offer federal grant and loan programs to its students, one requirement is that a career school or college must be accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Also, career schools and college and postsecondary institutions, other than Texas public institutions, offering any degree program in Texas must be authorized under a Certificate of Authority or Certificate of Authorization by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The Council for Higher Education Accreditation also evaluates and recognizes accrediting agencies.

Which? Convo: "How much would you pay for an HDMI cable? That is, the cable that brings high definition footage to your telly. A tenner? Well, some retailers and manufacturers are trying to push £100 cables.
This HDMI cable issue isn't new. It's been going on ever since high definition TVs made their way into our homes.
So why do we think it's a problem? Last January we went undercover to the UK's biggest electrical chains to see if their shop floor knowledge was up to scratch. The hard selling of expensive cables was the most worrying."
I saw one at the store the other day and it was priced at $200.
I got mine from tiger direct 3 years ago, for FREE, well I had to pay like 2.50 in shipping and handling, but after the mail in rebate it was free. The initial cost was like $6 anyways.

Dumpster Diving
Relined used construction dumpsters turned into swimming pools:
The pool project [is] a small part of something much larger. Macro-Sea has been involved with a number of artists, architects and retailers across the country working to transform defunct strip malls. "By stripping and altering its [strip malls] common architectural features, adding community space and involvement, and carefully selecting and curating vendors and the space itself Macro-Sea hopes to create and promote a place for people to shop, meet, learn, and engage with one another." Sounds like a good plan to me and I've seen it happen successfully before, in Sao Paulo, Brazil a few years ago.

Two years of tangling with mature bucks was enough to keep the blood pumping and give two bowhunters hunting experiences of a lifetime.
In autumn 2016, Illinois had been experiencing above-average high temperatures for the last few months. The most recent information I obtained from trail cameras, showed a lot of morning movement when the temperatures were cooler.
On Nov. 6, I knew it was that time; I just had that feeling as temperatures were projected to be much cooler that morning. I called my buddy, Aaron Cully, and said we have to go after Big City. The legacy of this deer began after Aaron and I were hunting on his farm in 2014. We were chasing two mature bucks that would score in the mid 150s, maybe 160s.
Using the information from trail cameras located throughout the farm, we located and had been avoiding the area Big City was habituating. Since opening day of bow season I had been tirelessly hunting every chance I got at my other farms in Illinois to avoid pressuring Big City. I was exhausted when the alarm when off the morning of Nov. 6. We were running a little behind and got in the stand just in time before that chilly morning's first light.
As the sun was breaking the horizon, I sent a text to Aaron saying, "It's going to be a special morning. Do you know what day is?" Aaron responded "Yes, the day I filmed you killing Stickers in 2012."
Stickers is what I thought would be the biggest deer of my life, which had scored 183 inches. Just a moment later I received a text from Aaron, "I have a doe that I think might bust me." I asked if it was a mature doe, and Aaron responded with a "YES." So I looked in Aaron's direction, knowing that given this information there was a good chance a big boy will be close behind.
I then looked in that direction, a huge framed buck was looking towards the doe, I immediately knew it was Big City. I had not heard nor seen him before he got within range. I knew I may never see this ghostly buck again, so I decided to grab my bow and try to make the kill by not focusing on his antlers but rather the shot itself.
I grabbed my bow and slowly stood up. I knew the wind was in my favor and he wasn't looking in my direction. I only had one window to make the shot. I stood slowly, while turning all the way around, to square up on the deer. After I was square, I realized that I had not yet ranged him, but did not want to take my eyes off of him in fear of potentially spooking him. I accomplished this by using my one pin sight and my best judgment on the placement of the pin, which was around 30-35 yards.
I placed the green dot right behind the left shoulder and pulled the trigger on my release. I watched Big City and the arrow, feeling as if I were burning a hole right through them the moment my broadhead hit the sweet spot. The buck took off; gurgling, then I heard a loud crash.
After waiting two hours then tracking 60 yards, I found the buck of my life.

Hazard Symbols
States of Matter
As heat is added to a solid the particles start to vibrate more and more vigorously. Eventually when it reaches its melting point the particles have enough energy to break their bonds and melt into a liquid. As it is cooled energy is taken away so the particles vibrate less and if a liquid or gas the bonds become stronger and so it freezes or condenses. In the case of a solid it becomes less flexible.
Particles in a solid vibrate around their equilibrium but don't move and keep a rigid shape with their bonds intact. Liquid particles are similar but have more energy so vibrate faster and have more fluidity. Gas particles have no bonds and move around very quickly
Structure of an atom
Energy Levels
Atomic/Proton Number – Number of protons (small number)
Mass Number – Sum of protons and neutrons
Mass Num – Atomic Num = Number of neutrons
Number of protons = number of electrons
· Held on energy levels
· First level can only hold 2 electrons
· After the first the rest of the energy levels can hold 8
· Electrons heavily influence the chemical properties of an element
Electrolytes are substances that conduct electricity when molten or in solution (ionic)
· An atom with the same number of protons but a different of neutrons
Relative Isotopic Masses
E.g 75% of Cl is 35 type. 25% is Cl 37
(0.75x35) + (0.25x37) = 35.5
· An element that has gained or loss electrons to complete its outer shell
N.B Elements are arranged in order of Atomic Mass (Number of protons)

Well I decided to start on Vincent's Big Boy room! I had put it off since we are moving but I figured I should get some of the crafty time consuming things done! We ran over to the craft store and picked up all the supplies, lots of paint, brushes, photo frames and letters!
I am going to paint cute monsters and frame them and then paint his name letters in the same colors!
Here is one of the monsters I just finished... it is still wet so it's shiny and needs a few touch ups, but here is a sneak peek of them!
I am not an artist by any means but I want this "childish" look of painting for his room, since he is a child haha!

Re: Purcell Oklahoma torney
i've been to more wild west tournies than Dodge city, and i live like... 20 minutes away from Dodges city and like 2 hours away from purcell. strange.
Re: Purcell Oklahoma torney
This one is said too be awesome so plan on being there.
If you must drive like from like 5 hours away casue its good good prizes and the more teams the more prize money =). Besides its gunna be taped so you can watch your selfs.
Re: Purcell Oklahoma torney
no i drive from that far away because the tournies are convineanlty timed, and alot of other conviniant things. also, the last known judges all met there for their first tourny
Re: Purcell Oklahoma torney
I'd be interested to see if it happens, and to the extent they are saying. Seems ballers in OK can't get together at any particular field at any particular time for any particular reason. Too much attitude. And without the teams showing up, people around the state won't play because there's not going to be a decent payout or prizes, unfortunately.
I really hope it does happen - Oklahoma paintball needs this to happen, but in light of the recent OKCCC tournament (didn't happen), the State Fair Tourney (also didn't happen), the KOPS series (now defunct, if I heard correctly) and the myriad of other BIG tournaments in Oklahoma that didn't happen because players/teams don't like the other people playing in it, or the field owner, or whatever excuse...well, I just hope it happens.
Sorry for the negative posting so early in the morning......
Re: Purcell Oklahoma torney
i'd like to play again, but after what happened in the last tourny, i'm afraid i've lost my edge. not only that, but a number of things
Re: Purcell Oklahoma torney
Ok i know im revamping a dead topics but......
Well from what ive last herd as of 6:00 PM central time.... Splatter has signed up 15 Rec class teams + Wild west teams (they have no idea how many they signed), and 10 Rookie class teams + wild west teams.
Open class got closed due too only two teams signing up lol

Aston Villa are Hull City are reportedly keen on Wigan Athletic's Chris McCann.
Aston Villa and Hull City are both interested in signing Wigan Athletic's Chris McCann, according to the Daily Mail.
McCann has impressed in Wigan's side despite their struggles this season and his form has not gone unnoticed by the Premier League duo.
Both Villa and Hull are fighting against the drop and they believe that McCann could help them maintain their top-flight status.
Convincing Wigan to part with McCann could be difficult, though. The midfielder has been a mainstay in the Latics side since November and they are unlikely to be keen on allowing their key players to leave, given they are so far away from safety in the Championship.
Impact for Wigan?
The blow of losing McCann would be softened considerably if they are able to tie up a transfer for Leeds United's Rodolph Austin, who is said to be close to a move by Sky Sports, but it would still be a big loss.
McCann's combative presence and technical ability makes him a vital part of Malky Mackay's plans, but if either Villa or Hull do make a move it will be hard to convince him to stay.
Wigan are seven points adrift of safety in the Championship and being in a relegation fight in the second-tier is unlikely to be appealing to the player when Premier League football is on offer.

Wandering the Pittsburgh airport before a business trip, Seph decides to kill time with some preflight shopping -- anything to get her mind off Tom Fraser, her irresistible, dimple-chinned coworker turned travel buddy. So when a pair of to-die-for pink stilettos calls her name from a store window, she tries them on -- only to be swiftly transported back to the eighteenth century and flung aboard a turbulent ship sailing the Mediterranean!
There, Seph is stunned to meet Phillip Drummond, an arrogant British pirate and the spitting image of Tom. Phillip has summoned her back in time to straighten out his complete mess of a life -- for he is the burly hero in the romance novel she someday hopes to write, and she is responsible for his destiny. But in the midst of turning things right so she can get back to reality, Seph starts to fall for the smolderingly sexy Phillip. And when Tom is thrown into the mix, she doesn't know what -- or who -- she wants. Seph soon realizes that spotting the perfect pair of shoes may be easy, but finding the perfect man can be a real trip.

Matthew was nothing short of phenomenal. The evening was a huge success for the club with 150 people attending, Matthew took the time to talk to everyone before doing the awards, including playing a quite exquisite cover drive with a spade across my arse, a moment that will forever live with me. His after dinner speech was outstanding, how he had everyone on the edge of their seats, truly captivating. I honestly can't praise him highly enough, the bar has well and truly been set, the worry is that we will never top it. – Chris Sayers, Forton Cricket Club
Matthew Hoggard was the perfect guest of honour at our dinner. Friendly, funny and entertaining. He was willing to help us in any way he could on the night which ended with his fantastic speech which was packed with laughs. Incredibly easy to deal with, he made our evening a wonderful success. I would wholly recommend him. – Paul Smith, Brainwave
It was great to meet Matthew at the annual dinner for our village cricket club, Burton Agnes. He was able to chat with our players and guests and his speech or his reflections on a career stretching from Pudsey to an MBE proved that success hadn't spoiled him. You can take a Yorkshireman out of his county but success hasn't taken the Yorkshire out of Matthew. – Dave Jackson – Burton Agnes Cricket Club
Thank you for your assistance with the arrangements with Matthew for our dinner on Friday night. Could you please pass on my thanks on to Matthew as well. The night appears to have gone down as a success and I think in many ways down to Matthew who was a great speaker and guest. I would highly recommend him for future dinners. – Sophie Graham, Saint & Co Chartered Accountants
Matthew Hoggard was guest speaker at an Annual Dinner held by Headingley Golf Club, Leeds at the Clubhouse on 6 March 2015. 110 guests were present. Matthew is a local lad, born in Pudsey, who went on to play for Yorkshire in 1996 and England in 2000. He became the fast bowling stalwart of one of the most successful England Cricket Teams of all times. During a golden period between 2004 and 2006 he played in 40 consecutive test matches, beating the West Indies in the Carribean for the first time in 36 years, South Africa on their home grounds and finally winning the Ashes in England for the first time in 18 years. His talk was an inspirational journey from playing junior cricket for Pudsey Congs in the Bradford League to that glorious Ashes win in 2005, Buckingham Palace for an MBE and Downing Street. I would recommend him to you all. – Philip Kay, Headingley Golf Club

An army is a blunt weapon. Send it into a populated area where the enemy doesn't wear a uniform and innocents are going to die. This is happening right now in Gaza. Many people are quick to blame Israel for these deaths, calling them "unnecessary" or even "war crimes."
Lately, Israel has had to endure unguided missiles raining down on its territory. Since they are unguided, the people launching them, Hamas soldiers, aren't conducting surgical strikes. In fact, it appears they would be happy if they hit schools, hospitals, markets, and other heavily-populated targets.
So, imagine you are Israel. Do you have another way of attempting to put a stop to the daily barrage of missiles?
This is not an invitation to criticize the creation of Israel after WW2. It's not an invitation to criticize policies you think led up to Hamas.
I'm only asking what's the alternative to sending in its troops to attempt to drive Hamas out of Gaza?

Looks like they got that one wrong.

Three unidentified men, in broad daylight, under cover of a suspicious blue tent and in full view of a hotel housing international press, The rocketeers take their time setting up the rocket, appear to hide the rocket which is fired within moments.
This is inconsistent with what we know of Al-Qassam brigades, Their tactic involve a rapid deployment of the rockets and typically appear at a launch site,set up multiple launchers, fire off the the rockets and leave the area immediately.
Could this rocket launch be an event staged by Shin Bet or mista'aravim for the international media?
"Could this rocket launch be an event staged by Shin Bet or mista'aravim for the international media?"
Could it have been Obama? (snicker) or maybe it was Saddam Hussein? Perhaps space aliens?
Nope, I got it...it was Alex Jones!
This video was filmed on a tabletop in the same warehouse where they filmed the fake moon landing.
Or it could have been Hamas.
The IDF uses quadracopter surveillance drones that are rocket equipped to search for Qassam launch sites. The bright blue tent would certain;ly be spotted by one of these drones,but the men working under the tent seemed to take their time indicating they were unconcerned with being spotted by a drone or Israeli patrol.
Calling Gazans hostages is a bit of a stretch...
YOU said Hamas will not let civilians get out of the way of Israeli attacks. How do you define hostage? Are the children complicit?
The Gazans made their bed and get to lay on it. Probably a lot of them wish they could take back their vote. The children are the responsibility of their parents, who made a bad choice.
Presumably, they voted Hamas in because they thought it'd be cool to fuck with Israel.
I just remember there being a presumption that since George W was elected by the American people (debatable, btw), ALL Americans must be in favor of the Bush Doctrine and in favor of an unprovoked war of aggression against Iraq. Also, considering the shenanigans that went down in the 2000 election here, I find it hard to believe an election in a place like Gaza could be strictly on the up and up.
Americans have had to live with the domestic results of the Bush doctrine, so what's your point?
At least some Gazan civilians are hostages. You said so earlier when it suited you. But now, fuck 'em, right? And their kids. And your presumption about Gazan civilians supporting Hamas is just as faulty as the presumption that all Americans supported W's policies.
My points? Sorry, I thought that was clear. 1) You changed positions when it suited you. 2) Your presumption is faulty.
How do you think Israel should proceed? What tactics would both (a) be effective and (b) protect their own troops?
As I've said elsewhere, your purpose in war is to win it. Nothing trumps that.
Rules of war is kind of an absurd notion, like rules for a bar fight: 1) no sucker punching, 2) no kicking in the nuts; 3) no using your friends to gang up on your opponent.
Israel is a democracy, so it has to answer to its electorate. While Hamas got itself voted in, it's basically a dictatorship and doesn't give a shit about its own people. They are just pawns to be killed so they can cry about the body count.
Israel's form of democracy is quite different from ours.It's governing body, the Knesset elects it leadership from within, not by a general election. Representation is based on partisan demographics instead of geographic demographics. This means that the larger a party is, the more representation it gets. Voters get to choose the party, not individual candidates,
Currently the Knesset represents 13 parties, 6 of the forming a right wing coalition, and the other 7 parties in opposition. The coalition has a 68 to 52 majority in the Knesset, dominated by the Likud party. Many of the original Likud party members were formerly Tikun and Lehi terrorists.
"As I've said elsewhere, your purpose in war is to win it. Nothing trumps that."
Written like a true fascist.
Winning anything requires an objective. The Likud party charter states as a major objective extending Israels borders to include Gaza and the west bank exclusively for Jewish people. Years ago, a Likud politician said "Kill them all and take their land" and others have stated an object of killing all the women and children to prevent future generations of resistance fighters from being born.
Unseen's original question:
"How should Israel deal with the missile onslaught?"
Forgetting the politics for a bit, I find myself wondering how I would handle my neighbor next door shooting RPG's at my house.
A few days ago, a man in Kentucky concealed broken pieces of razor blades in Canadian bacon, and threw them into his neighbor's backyard. He was bothered by the neighbor's dogs barking and admitted to the act as a way to silence the dogs... permanently.
One of the family pets took the bait and had to be put down to end its agony. In addition,if the dog owner's two year old grandson had found the razor blades, it would have been worse. The dog owner went to the authorities, the case was investigated and the neighbor was arrested and faces prison time. Had the dog owner confronted his neighbor with a shotgun, matters would have gotten much worse.
Th problem is one of proportional response.centuries of conflict teaches us that disproportionate response only leads to escalation of conflict. Israels use of the Dahiya Doctrine against Gaza in direct violation of international law is strategically designed to illicit a response which can then be used to rationalize more attacks against civilians.
A few points and questions.
1.) In the Kentucky case the analogy is wrong. Change the razor blades to RPG's and the injured dog to your two-year old grandson, and when you call the authorities they refuse to come stop the neighbor. Do you just stand by and watch more RPG's rain down death and injury upon your other grandchildren or do you do something within your power to stop the crazy neighbor?
2.) How much force on your part would you consider to be a proportionate response? Will you base it in part on his willingness to stop launching RPG's at your house?
3.) Now your other neighbors start calling and complaining about the noise telling you would be breaking the law if you use your own RPG's to stop your crazy neighbor shooting RPG's at your house.
4.) Is your responsibility to your grandchildren or to some law claimed to exist by neighbors whose grandchildren are not at risk of being killed?
From my POV I would fire 10 RPG's at his grandchildren for each 1 of his RPG's fired at my grandchildren until my crazy neighbor quit launching RPG's, or until my other neighbors went over his house and made him quit launching RPG's. I'm calling it the Gregg Doctrine.

Full question:
"My friend has an old Tally Hall shirt which has a chinchilla on it and chinchillas are listed as one of Tally Hall's facebook interests. Is there any special reason or inside joke or something about the band's interest in chinchillas?"
The Chinchilla was the original logo for Tally Hall. I think maybe one of the member's owned one? I'm not sure why they held such an interest in it but they pretty much dropped the chinchilla obsession around Spring 2005.

Happy Death Day (PG-13) ★★
Applying the Groundhog Day premise to a horror movie is so obvious a conceit that I'm surprised it hasn't been previously attempted. It's a no-brainer. Unfortunately, director Christopher Landon and screenwriter Scott Lobdell have taken that phrase ("no-brainer") too literally, liberally employing frontal lobotomies so that, in true horror film fashion, the actions of various characters sometimes make little sense and come from a place of minimal intelligence. By turns frustrating and tedious, this can sink even the most intriguing story.
Tree Gelbman (Jessica Rothe) is one of the Queen B(itch) sorority sisters. She wakes up on the morning of her birthday with a massive hangover in the bed of nerdy nice-guy Carter Davis (Israel Broussard). She's mortified - if anyone finds out she slept with this dweeb, her reputation will be ruined. But she's late for class and an extra-curricular assignation with a professor (Charles Aitken). By evening, she has been able to piss off a wide variety of people and ignore repeated calls from her father. Then, on her way to a party, she wanders into a dark area off campus and is murdered by someone wearing a creepy chubby baby mask. But, instead of ascending into the clouds or descending elsewhere, she wakes up again in Carter's room on the morning of her birthday. Lather, rinse, repeat. If you've seen Groundhog Day, you know where this is going. The filmmakers openly reference it. ("Hey, this sounds like Groundhog Day. You know, the movie with Bill Murray. What do you mean, you don't know who Bill Murray is…")
The film's first half-hour is entertaining. It consists of the set-up and the first repeat. We get to see how things play out mostly the same but with slight variations while Tree struggles with what she thinks is a massive case of déjà vu. After that, however, the contrivances mount and Tree's actions become increasingly inexplicable. After a few deaths, she concludes that the way to stop the repetition is to avoid being murdered. So does she take all the obvious steps, like staying with a group of friends or carrying a big knife or any number of other things that would reduce the possibility of her being filleted like a fish? Or, as a last resort, does she try to rip off the mask so she'll know her assailant next time around? No and no. Instead, she does things like strip naked and strut across campus or spy on possible suspects to eliminate them from her list. The deaths become repetitious so Landon opts for a montage and, during the montage, he turns up the comedic aspect.
There is a minor twist to the Groundhog Day scenario. In the 1993 classic, Murray's character lived his single day thousands of times. Here, the number of iterations is in the low double digits and can't rise asymptotically toward infinity because every time Tree dies, she becomes weaker. She postulates she's like a cat with nine lives.
This isn't traditional horror. There are few jump-scares and the murders are neither graphic (the rating is PG-13) nor frightening. As I said, some are played for laughs. The killer's mask falls considerably short of Pennywise the clown's costume in terms of its ability to raise the viewer's hackles. The movie might be more appropriately described as a thriller or a dark fantasy than a horror movie. The Blumhouse seal of approval, however, places it firmly in the genre where it's most likely to sell tickets.
Happy Death Day is about 90 minutes long and, past the first half-hour, every minute is dumber than the one before it. By the end, things have become so preposterous that it's difficult to care about any of the (stupid) characters or how they get out of their situation. The movie's attempts to develop a dramatic backstory for Tree and start a romance between her and Carter aren't effective because we don't respect her character. Her every action is artificial, the result of sloppy screenwriting.
Before I Fall, a movie that came out earlier this year, also underutilizes the Groundhog Day premise but, compared to Happy Death Day, Before I Fall offers a brilliant re-interpretation. However, because Happy Death Day rewards lazy, inattentive viewing, it will probably do quite well with young audiences who prefer not to be challenged by unconventional narrative developments or plots that require introspection and analysis. This is yet another example of why chilling, thoughtful horror is an endangered species.

I am never shocked but always amazed at the bitter-sweet nature of life. In blog-land my work is fickle but my life is rich with so much I want to share and think useful to…but often time doesn't permit, or more accurately, like most moms I need to constantly prioritize. Thus, sadly there are always many things that must get the shaft in this process. However there are days like today that the culmination of so many things is unbearable and I must share.
In my physical life I am a high school English teacher who also advises our school's Key Club. One of my close colleagues decided she wanted to start a charitable drive called the Pillow Pet Project and asked if I could help out and get my club members involved—I loved the idea and eagerly agreed. She came to speak to my students during our Wednesday afternoon meeting and explained the task and result: Sell school bracelets in order to raise money to purchase Pillow Pets for all of the children in our local hospital's cancer ward and a few days before Christmas she will take the toys to the unit along with entertainment from student performers. She was inspired by a video of a young boy Jake McConahay and his zeal for the toys. She recommended we watch the video and because my day was wrought with its own set of nuisances I did not watch the video. Then today while I was teaching my first class she sent a student to my room to get my attention and from down the hall she revealed that in trying to show her students the video on the Smartboard she learned that the boy had passed away. She was devastated. I will admit, I could barely react. My class knew enough to be curious so I took the teachable moment and discussed a multitude of pertinent issues that serendipitously relate to the text I am about to teach (Nectar in a Sieve by Kamala Markandaya) which also has an example of infanticide among other tragically real circumstances. My colleague was afraid that students involved would be discouraged by the news of the boy and not feel passionate about helping others, but I disagreed, I felt the kids would put in extra effort out of appreciation for their own lives and for those still living.
|Some Thanksgiving beauty--headband made by me and later destroyed by baby.
The point in sharing this story is two-fold. For one, I send so much love and prayers to Jake's family. I am still processing how much my life has changed now that I am a mother and thank the universe daily for the beautiful and healthy child I have been blessed with. The other reason is because thematically speaking, with tragedy also comes profound realization of all that is beautiful. The last week has been rather challenging, I have had anxiety that has manifested itself in physical ways mostly because I have had to deal with overall abrasiveness from my child's father. This upset mixed with the story of poor Jake actually inspires me to appreciate the good even more--sometimes because I need that to be able to handle a life with so much sadness implicit in it. This is a lesson I try to impart on my students and one Markandaya vividly portrays in her novel. In the epigraph she writes: "Work without hope draws nectar in a sieve, And hope without an object cannot live." I would go as far as to say that a life without hope, or more accurately without the cognizance of beauty is not really a life at all.
For me I need to make beauty from suffering. I need to find ways to create karmic balance on my path. I am lucky that the universe often manifests it for me. Despite everything I wrote, today was ultimately better for me because it was not yesterday (which involved being grossly disrespected) and when I entered my classroom, not only were my books for this marking period delivered, but they were done so artfully. I was mesmerized and beamed from my love of random acts of awesomeness.
Then later in the day, despite the upset of the Jake story and my lingering anxiety two students walked in the room and made my day with the following surprise. Some set up is necessary: These two students are very animated and funny in a post-modern ironic but also ridiculously goofy kind of way. These same two sophomores told me yesterday that they wanted to bring me an apple because that's what one is supposed to give a teacher, I laughed and nodded them off. Today they walked into class and said "We couldn't find any apples so we brought you oranges" and handed me these:
|This shiz is bananas.

This California farmhouse is small in size but big in personality.
Size doesn't always matter when it comes to the perfect summer getaway. Located on the Pt. Reyes peninsula along the Northern California coastline, this whimsical, 260-square-foot house is a cozy and cute place to spend your next vacation. It's located on a dairy farm and has the feel of a 1940's country home with lots of modern conveniences.
The pop of color on the roof and simple yet stylish decorations on the outside of the house invite you inside.
The sleeping quarters are simple and functional with a continuation of the retro style that feels like home.
Functionality is key in this home, which manages to pack in every feature you could possibly need along with added storage space.
The front porch is the perfect place to curl up with a good book and a cold drink on a lazy summer day.
If this retro farmhouse doesn't make you want to live a simpler life, I'm not sure what will. You can find out more about this cool house at the Richardson Architects website.

Did Nostradamus say something about 2012?
Did Nostradamus say something about 2012?
While I was going over search engines and a book with me to find out if Nostradamus ever said anything about 2012. Here is re-run from the people who are buzzing with doomsday theories.
One guy claims that Nostradamus predicted WWIII in 2012. Come on, two things can not be true. Either it would be doomsday or WWIII if it has to be true. Looking at political preparations for 2012, US seem to be going on the track with its political leadership planning for 2012 campaign. World leaders are no fools and the WWIII is not going to happen ever, that's what I think.
Another wonderful man discovered a lost book by Nostradamus and he says it has 2012 date written with letters. There can not be more foolish than this. People generate coffee-home news and discover many books when they are drunk. So no surprises and there is no proof that there was any book lost. No credible source to this claim.
Many people and experts falsely claimed over the last year that Nostradamus's a particular prediction is going to be true. So called experts failed to read the book properly and the same people are claiming that Nostradamus told so already.
Nostradamus needs to be spared and let the scholar rest in peace. Several experts have made good fortune by writing books about his books. It is great idea for them to make money. For them Nostradamus theories for 2012, hold good commercial value which can be exploited.
On serious note, Nostradamus was genius and he only could understand or express what he is trying to tell actually. After him, several people interpret the words as it suits them. So no surprises even this time from Nostradamus, and there are no reasons to link theories.

2012 Movie Failed to Inspire and Influence
A grand movie like 2012 and the talks in Copenhagen, do no have anything in common except climate. It was not expected like this. The movie got dismissal from the leaders of the world and there is no influence of this movie in talks in Copenhagen.
A powerful medium such as cinema needs to have some influence and inspire the actions. But unlike Day After Tomorrow, this movie does not have any value beyond silver screen.
Movie missed the chance to make an impact and it just being portrayed as just the piece of non-sense fiction which has no science in it.
Lets see if something sensible comes out from the talks of Climate summit at Copenhagen 2009.

Is 2012 hype over with Movie?
I have been scanning the news sources for this week but could not find much of content being generated as it was before movie came out. Many people have started to cast the doubts on the Maya calendar and its hype as generated in media.
Was Maya Calendar a creation of few marketing heads at media houses? Looks like so. Why so called experts are silent after the movie. Their silence is really enigmatic and chilling.
Movie did not excite people who were waiting to see something extra-ordinary. Movie was bad attempt at explaining the fiction and it lands in the category of worst science movies ever made.
There is no interest for now in Doomsday theories. All eyes are set on London 2012 Olympic games. There is good new coverage for the biggest games. World seems like to have gotten over the rotten science of 2012 movie.

Sensible Documentary Awaited
Someone like Michael Moore is needed badly to blast the theories of doomsday in 2012. Michael Moore needs to pickup this theme and produce something sensible.
The popular song of the time till 2012 will remain which movie created. It makes no sense to many what NASA says. People are busy with cooking the theories. There are many groups which are showing great interest in watching the sky with telescope. None of them report any sighting of star X. More theories are awaited. It is surprising to see why David Icke is silent on this subject. I hope he is going to bring most lunatic theory for 2012 and its impossible doomsday.
There are many self-proclaimed experts claiming to know everything. None of them have background in science. Most of them are just interested heads or have business interests in selling the books, goods and what not.
You ask them anything they will create it and come up with more bizarre theories. Almost all those theories are based upon disconnected facts and hold no ground if presented to scientific community.
So!!!!!, Please do not take these theories seriously. Life is beautiful and it will remain post 2012 also. Read those stories and laugh off on their idiotic thoughts. 2012 theories are no more than bad jokes which have been cooked badly.
A sensible theory is yet to be seen which must come from credible sources. Serious researcher needs to produce something convincing or debunking the theories.
