According to a source, we spoke to last night, there is another dimension to the whole story, and that particular dimension is the side of the man involved in the situation itself. There was no denial about the arrest whatsoever, but the case was not supposedly as viewed by everyone, according to our source, Ahmed & a very good friend of his, who is said to be a confirmed multi-millionaire had entered a store to shop, and had been shopping the storm, the store attendants on sighting a ''black'' dude and a white guy doing so much shopping, had called in the police to check them out, the police on coming in, had asked for both Ahmed & John his Friend to identify themselves, but the 2 supposedly had no identity card, so they were arrested and taken away, which supposedly was the reason for the mugshot, but after a call or 2, they were said to have been left off the hook immediately without paying any bond, which was why though people felt he was still supposedly in custody in Atlanta,Georgia,U.S.A, he had already flown back to Lagos,Nigeria. Case closed, don't you think?.
Not on your money, we hear both Ahmed & John are suing the store-which is said to have about a 120 branches across America for false accusation & the attendant terrible embarrassment caused to them, this is what our source explained to us, but, we are yet to personally get across to Ahmed to hear from the horses mouth, though many have confirmed for a fact that he is the country, and has been seen at many top spots in Lagos, minding his own business. As soon as there is any update or new development as par the whole truth of the situation,we will get it across immediately

Cuddles and cookies and Pollyanna
I'm probably opening myself up to a world of ridicule for this post but I'm starting to get really sick of being an internet person thingy. Part of it is because I've been spending too much time on the internet lately, but the other part is, for whatever reason-the lockout, narcissism, boredom, whatever-people have turned into the biggest jerks.
I don't know if there ever was a time when we simply ignored things we thought were stupid, but I feel like there was and I miss it. I don't know if there ever was a time when we disagreed with each other without bullying each other, but I feel like there was and I miss it. I don't know if there was ever a time when you could do something that was poorly-thought-out or even not very smart and not have internet torches and pitchforks descend on you and pile on you relentlessly for days, but I feel like there was and I miss it.
I feel like people say and do dumb things all the time, without intentionally hurting anyone or being racist, sexist, homophobic or otherwise bigoted. I mean, if someone is hurtful or a bigot they deserve to get called out on it. But if someone has a momentary lapse in judgement and says something dumb, I don't see how being a dick to them all day is going to make them anything other than defensive.
I miss "I disagree with you and I'm going to respectfully tell you why without implying you're the stupidest human being on earth."
Did we ever have that? I don't know.
I miss "I don't like what you write so I'm just never going to bother reading your work again and I'll just leave you alone and forget you exist, wish you the best, smooches."
Did we ever have that? I don't know.
I feel like all we do now is actively try to make people feel bad. And I wish it would stop. And maybe it's Internet Pollyanna of me to think it ever could, but really, can we please stop being such massive douchebags to each other over the stupidest shit?

A new locality and wonderful weather made it possible to film in the open air. However, we didn't have a clue what it would do with participants and out star, Zuzana. We really didn't expect this to happen. The whole party turned into a crazy fucking orgy… That's the reason why this one is the kinkiest of all parties. You will see everything you can possibly imagine, deep throat, swallowing of gallons of semen, anal, threesome, squirting of breast milk, multiple orgasm of the main star and many other delicacies. We'd like to warn you this is nothing for people with romantic soul who believe in gentle love. This is hardcore stuff for people who can appreciate good fuck at Czech Gangbang.

My apprehension going into watch Fists of Legend was almost palpable. Billed
as a mixed martial arts melodrama that follows three middle-aged men take part in a televised fighting competition called 'Legendary Punch', the basis of which is that they used to go to school together and had reputations based on their fierce fighting skills, it's difficult to figure out exactly who is the movies target demographic.
By Paul Bramhall
Furthermore, the MMA style that sporting competitions like UFC have made so popular has yet to really successfully transfer onto the big screen. While watching two sweaty men withering around on top of each other in an actual real match is exciting and dangerous, as you have no idea what's going to happen, watching it in a movie takes away that immediacy, stripping it of any tension. Lacking the rhythm and flow of old school kung-fu or the kinetic energy of kickboxing, MMA in comparison comes across as stifled and almost boring, as can be witnessed in any of the countless straight-to-DVD Tapout movies.
Still, while Fists of Legend seems like a questionable proposition from a story standpoint, the talent behind the production can't be denied. Helmed by reliable commercial director Kang Woo-seok ('Public Enemy / 공공의 적', 'Silmido / 실미도'), the three characters themselves are played by the always enjoyable Hwang Jeong-min ('The New World / 신세계', 'The Unjust / 부당거래'), Yoon Je-moon ('Boomerang Family / 고령화가족' – also showing at the Film Festival!), & Hang Song-soo favourite Yoo Joong-sang ('The Day He Arrives / 북촌 방향', 'Nobody's Daughter Haewon / 누구의 딸도 아닌 해원').
Thankfully the caliber both behind and in front of the camera come together well. The opening switches between scenes from the characters youth of them single handedly taking on whole gangs with nothing but their fists and feet, to the present day TV show which has producer (played by Lee Yo-won) pitting them 25 years later, complete with beer belly, against a seasoned MMA fighter to test their legendary status. From the get go the situation is entirely ludicrous, however Woo-seok plays things straight faced, backed up by performers who are obviously giving it their all. As a result, buying into the whole concept of kids who were famous in school for fighting seeing if they've still got it a quarter of a decade later, somehow becomes quite easy to buy into.
Hwang Jeong-min is quickly established as the main character to root for, once a promising boxer, a cruel twist of fate stole him of his dream and he's now a noodle shop owner which hardly has any customers, trying to support his teenage daughter after his wife has passed away. It's safe to say his character ticks every requirement of being in a Korean melodrama, and then some. Je-moon's character has spent most of his life as a small time gangster working under the areas big crime boss, while Joon-sang made a clean break from his troubled high school brawling days, and now works in an office in which he strives to climb the corporate ladder under a less than pleasant CEO.
Essentially Yo-won's producer makes it her mission to bring these three characters, who haven't seen each other since their high school days, together again to face off against each other on the TV show. There is a subtle underlying theme in the movie of how the media manipulates any given situation for its own betterment. Yo-won goes about playing the men's honest motives off against each other to influence them all to agreeing to take part, and it's perhaps a telling sign that she becomes one of the only characters to have a decent amount of screen time that doesn't get some kind of redemptive arc, at the end of the move she's still the manipulative producer she is at the start.
While the movie earns a lot of good will with its stellar performances and good mix of regular fight action, the question does come up of if you can have too much of a good thing. While the principal story of getting the three guys together for an MMA match seems relatively straightforward, Fists of Legend clocks in at a whopping 155 minutes, which may put off even the most patient viewer. Most of the huge run time is explained through the fact Woo-seok makes the decision to run a parallel story of the guy's time in high school, so we're presented with several extended flashback scenes of the three characters brawling days (their young versions are played by Park Jeong-min, Park Doo-sik, & Goo Won respectively).
While these scenes provide some welcome background to the characters, as well as some of the movies biggest brawling scenes, trimming some of them down would definitely have been beneficial. Woo-seok is also at his most playful in these scenes, having the trio regularly refer to themselves as the characters from the Hong Kong classic 'A Better Tomorrow', making a reference to his own movie 'Silmido', and he also recycles the plot from his movie 'Public Enemy Returns / 강철중: 공공의 적 1-1', of a gangster hiring disadvantaged teenagers to do his dirty work.
By the time the final 30 minutes roll around, which are entirely taken up by MMA bouts in a special tournament which offers big prize money, viewers will either be ready to lap it up or suffering from serious fatigue. Luckily, the fights incorporate various plot points being tied up in the process, which makes them equally satisfying from a plot standpoint as it will be for those who just want to watch some grueling fight action. Special mention should go to the movies action director Jeong Doo-hong, here having his craftsmanship on show for a second time in the festival after 'The Berlin File / 베를린'. He creates some great mass brawling scenes, during which you just know people got hurt, and succeeds in the unenviable job of actually making the MMA fights themselves appear exciting and tense.
With the US churning out an endless stream of dull and uninspired MMA movies, Fists of Legend achieves the rare feat of combining manly melodrama with equally manly fight action, and while it may outstay its welcome for some, by the time the credits roll it's hard to deny that the experience wasn't a satisfying one.

This and That
My husband and son have been working on their food plots in preparation for deer season. This photo is just a peek into their, "work area". Beautiful, no?!
The hot summer dried up leaves and some crazy winds last month have already made some of our trees look barren.
My son, The Deerslayer, has started snake wrangling. I am hoping this is just a passing fancy. Maybe too much Bear Grylls on the telly.
And, on one last final note. If you are driving on a country road and come across a road sign that says, "Egypt", then you really might be out in the middle of nowheresville.

The Essential Bundle B Cleaning Set from VisibleDust allows you to clean your DSLR camera body inside/out. It includes the Zeeion blower, and the Arctic Butterfly sensor cleaning product for removing dry dust contamination from the camera sensor. The 8mL Sensor Clean and the VDust Plus cleaning liquids, as well as the twelve 1.0x swabs allow you to remove wet contamination stains (water, oil, lubricant smear) from your digital camera sensor. The CurVswab handle creates an optimal surface contact between the swab fabric and sensor preventing streak lines associated with the regular swab handle. This set also includes the Quasar Plus Sensor Loupe 7x that can be used to identify the smallest spots with the highest resolution, as well as the SwabLight which enhances your DSLR sensor cleaning technique.
Helping you to clearly recognize dust and other particles on your image sensor, the Quasar Plus 7x Sensor Loupe from Visible Dust is a fixed-focus magnifier featuring Bright Vue technology and six LED lights that illuminate and help locate spots on a sensor. Benefiting high viewing clarity is the use of extra-low dispersion K9 optical glass, which has been treated with a MgF2 fluorine coating to maintain high resolution, minimize chromatic aberration, and render dust and spots with a 3D quality. Its design also incorporates a 52mm threaded ring to accept optional optical filters or hoods in order to improve viewing conditions and block ambient light. In addition to gaining a magnified view of your image sensor, this loupe can also be used to view negatives, slides, or other small objects.
The Visible Dust Zeeion Blower combines newly-developed, patent pending technologies to remove dust and keep your image sensor clean. The Silicon-RX construction of the blower allows opposite charging of the air molecules blown out to the surface, neutralizing static charges and reducing instances of dust reattaching to your photo equipment. Specialty filters at less than 20 microns in size are placed at both the intake and outtake points of the blower to prevent the introduction of everyday dust, quartz, and sand debris. Coupled with a unique, one-way valve and soft cap tip to prevent accidental damage to digital imaging sensors, the Zeeion Blower is the perfect cleaning solution for your digital SLR, lenses, and other electronic equipment.
The Visible Dust Arctic Butterfly 724 (Super Bright) is now equipped with 2 super bright LEDs that illuminate the sensor while in operation. This illumination reduces the possibility of fibers being dragged accidentally against the surrounding cavity hence reducing the potential cause of smear usually caused by contaminated fibers.
With the LED as a guide, it becomes easier to spot dust particles. The internal engine meets certain RPM standards and also creates a centrifugal force that enhances dust rejection as well as bolstering the charge enhancement of fibers.
These combined patented features that include SCF (Super Charged Fibers) makes the Arctic Butterfly 724 (Super Bright) a superb sensor cleaning tool. These enhancements involve nano-coating technology for charge enhancements as well as by using super thin fibers for maximum lift capability along the rotary motion for cleaning/charging - all without the use of canned air.
Because of its safety features, all models of Arctic Butterfly can be safely used on ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) coated sensor and DLSR's with built in sensor cleaning systems.
Note: Requires 2 AAA batteries (not included)
The VisibleDust UltraMXD-Vswab is an innovative sensor cleaning swab with a unique "V" shape design that has several advantages over the more common square format swabs. The narrower edge of the V shaped swab minimizes the contact between the swab and the chamber wall reducing the chances of dust or lint from the camera body from falling on the sensor while cleaning.
Plus the "V" shape allows for better maneuverability and easy swabbing while inside the chamber, and allows the user to apply more equal pressure to the edge of the swab pad for a more homogeneous swabbing motion and less streaking along the edges.
The ultra thin MXD-100 multi fiber fabric of the Green Series swabs has a patented folding design to create a softer edge (compared to a hot sealing process), and is designed to be compatible with a wide range of VisibleDust solutions. The 1.0x size is specially designed to provide a single swipe cleaning action for "full frame" image sensors.
Note: Compatible with VDust Plus, Sensor Clean & Smear Away cleaning Fluids
The VisibleDust CurVswab Handle Set includes one long swab, one short swab, and one strap providing edge to edge cleaning capability. The firm grip on the swab handle caters to the more experienced user providing a more professional cleaning process. Optimal surface contact between the swab fabric and the sensor prevents streak lines and an easier cleaning method.
Sensor Clean Solution from VisibleDust has many characteristics that make it an excellent choice for cleaning your digital camera sensor. This unique cleaning solution leaves no residue or film because it is non-alcoholic and non-hygroscopic; plus it is also non-flammable, non-toxic and non-corrosive to the sensor.
While Sensor Clean is best used to remove water based stains and light dust contamination, it also provides excellent dust repellent properties and anti-fogging capabilities. Sensor Clean works best when applied with VisibleDust Green Series Swabs.
Helping to a clean a variety of stains from your image sensor, this 8 ml bottle of VDust Plus Formula from Visible Dust is a concentrated liquid solution for cleaning away water and most oil stains. It is specifically designed to prevent streaking and to provide a moderate static barrier for your sensor to maintain a clean appearance after cleaning. It is safe and effective to use on all DSLRs and mirrorless cameras and is ideal for use with either green Ultra MXD-100 or orange DHAP-series swabs, with orange swabs being better suited to sensors lacking an optical low-pass filter.

A debut memoir offers a poignant meditation on the joys and challenges of being a stepmother.
When Lile met her future husband, she was a lobbyist for a nurses' association and he was the state representative from the 39th district of Snohomish County in Washington. Their romance started haltingly, but once Lile finally agreed to go out with Art, it quickly blossomed into something of real substance. There were hurdles, however: Art was still married to his wife, Vicki, though the two were separated, and he had two children from that relationship. Still, Lile and Art pressed on and decided to wed, though Vicki, sometimes resentfully, made the divorce proceedings arduous. Those inconveniences portended the kinds of problems Lile would recurrently encounter, the ineluctable pitfalls attached to the "blended family." She moved into a house Art built with his ex-wife. Because Lile was unemployed, she was immediately thrust into the daily duties of stepmotherhood, shepherding Art's kids—now hers too—about town in her car. The author experienced a short grace period characterized by polite awkwardness, but that eventually gave way to emotional conflict and an identity crisis. It was not immediately clear what role she played on Christmas or if she should be recognized on Mother's Day. A community unfamiliar with Lile all but shunned her; Vicki could be territorial and curt. Lile and Art eventually had a child of their own, further complicating the household dynamic. And when Art's two kids from his first marriage reached adolescence, their natural rebelliousness further challenged Lile's goal of domestic harmony. The author sensitively and candidly discusses emotionally wrenching topics with a lighthearted touch. She quickly discovered that being a stepmother was both a dauntingly difficult and unsung role: "There is no ceremony for stepparents. No stepmom shower. No waiting for the official papers as you would for an adoption. No party balloons." It's impressive how generous she is recounting her struggles—she never surrenders herself to bitter recrimination or uses her remembrance to settle old scores. And Lile is refreshingly self-critical, openhandedly anatomizing her own foibles. This is a genuine love story that thoughtfully considers all the ways real-world obstacles conspire against a simple romance.
A beautiful examination of a family and the sometimes-fragile ligatures that bind its members.

Showcase: Khorne Daemontide by Uruk
Hey guys, it's Uruk! Today I bring you another part of my ever growing Khorne force. As I already showcased most of the Chaos Marine part of the army, it's time I let the daemons get some love as well. See you inside.
You might've seen my Khorne Daemon Prince in one of the earlier showcases already (it's worth noting that I actually repainted it some time ago to match the warp-forged armor color with the Skull Cannon and Juggernauts iron hides – more on that in the future) and today I'll go through the rest of it.
For starters – lesser daemons of Khorne – Bloodletters. I'm a huge fan of OOP models (can't say that enough) so naturally I had to grab at least one set of the older, axe-wielding musclegoats (absolutely love those designs).
Moreover, I'm also trying to complete another cohort, this time made of the current sculpts, which picture the actual tabletop statistics better. I converted a Bloodreaper and made 3 regular Bloodletters so far.
Next up, the fast attack. Easily the best Khorne daemon unit in the game, and amazing modelwise as well – the Flesh Hounds. I'm currently struggling to finish up 24 of those ( only 4 remaining!). The hounds don't really offer much conversion possibilities, but there's enough different heads, legs and torsos to minimize any clone risk.
Lastly for today, the newest (beside the Bloodthirster) Khorne daemon toy, Skull Cannon. This thing is EXTREMELY detailed and sucked up way more time to paint than I ever expected it could. Still, I had a blast both painting it and later using it in game, as it packs a nice punch both in the shooting and assault phase.
As for my future plans regarding the daemon part of my World Eaters force, I still have a unit of Bloodletters and Flesh Hounds to finish, a Herald on Juggernaut to convert, and lastly the new Bloodthirster laying in a plastic bag, waiting to be assembled (and hopefully magnetized).
That's it for this time, as always I hope you like them and thanks so much for your comments! See you next time.

The wait is over, boys and girls! Here is the next part of my ongoing series about President George W. Obama. Sometimes partisanship and heated debates makes us forget how little has changed and how little really divides the two parties when it comes to national security. The rhetoric was changed and the policies had to be repackaged, modified a little bit to better fit the administration's own beliefs and political promises, but what's actually being done has changed very little. Policies, like celebrities, need to be re-invented to stay with the times.
Case in point: President Obama has just signed a one-year extension of the Patriot Act. The entire legislation wasn't preserved, though—so surely it was refined to limit its violations of civil liberties, right? Think again. As The Associated Press reports, "Thrown away were restrictions and greater scrutiny on the government's authority to spy on Americans and seize their records." Oh, snap!
And this isn't just one isolated example of a similarity. On January 29, I wrote an entire article about the parallels (click here). Right around the time that piece was published, a few more things happened to buttress my case. President Obama was found to be spending more on America's nuclear weapons stockpile than his predecessor, and decided to hold nearly 50 Gitmo detainees indefinitely at the prison because it's too risky to try to prosecute them, agreeing with Bush that Congress "implicitly" gave the Executive Branch that authority in 2001.
Change we can believe in.

Today I am sharing a fun bottle tag I made using this cute image Bestie in a frame We are still celebrating our 1st birthday over at color it create it show it off so why not come and join us?
I just made my own tag shape and cut a hole for the bottle neck to fit through, I reinforced it with a circle cut using my Cricut machine and the left behind became the mat for the Happy Birthday sentiment you can just see.
I used the same cardstock to cut 3 leaves out. The image I coloured in using my Promarker pens and then fussy cut her out. I added glossy accents to the red roses. The tag itself was cut out of cream card and then I just took a selection of paper off cuts from the Party_Paper_Pocket_Letter_Instant_Download and randomly stuck them down. Then to finish off I inked over the whole thing with Antique Linen.
Come over and look around and then add your own creation. As always we are a anything goes challenge.

Flash Comics
Flash Comics was a comics anthology published by All-American Publications and later by National Periodical Publications (DC Comics). The title had 104 issues published from January 1940 to February 1949. Although the name of the comic book was Flash Comics, the Flash was only one of many different series featured in the magazine.

Publication historyEdit
The series debuted with a January 1940 cover date[1] and the first issue featured the first appearances of the Golden Age versions of the Flash,[2] Hawkman,[3] and Johnny Thunder.[4] The Flash was later given a solo comic book series, All-Flash which ran for 32 issues between Summer 1941 to January 1948.[5]
Artist Joe Kubert's long association with the Hawkman character began with the story "The Painter and the $100,000" in Flash Comics #62 (Feb. 1945).[6] The Monocle was introduced in #64 as a new foe for Hawkman.[7]
Carmine Infantino's first published work for DC was "The Black Canary", a six-page Johnny Thunder story in Flash Comics #86 (August 1947) that introduced the superheroine the Black Canary.[8] Writer Robert Kanigher and Joe Kubert created the Thorn in issue #89 (November 1947).[9]
Flash Comics was cancelled in 1949 with issue #104.[1] When DC Comics gave the Silver Age Flash, his own comic book series, it received the old numbering of Flash Comics starting at issue #105.[10]

Free Money Envelope Printable
This free money envelope printable is perfect to bail you out of your procrastination! Everyone loves to give out gift cards, but lets be real for a second, cash is better than a gift card in almost every way. It spends everywhere, has zero expirations, and you can't forget to write how much its worth on it! So the one thing possibly, that a gift card has over cash is the purported "thought and effort was put into it" excuse. But, hear me out - you can buy gift cards just about everywhere; with about the same amount of effort the purchase of a candy bar requires. Standing in checkout, "Oh, hey didn't we need to get a gift card for Dad?". Yep - don't lie, you've all been there. As a father myself, I'm qualified to say you might want to just stick with the candy bar. I don't need another thing to carry in my wallet - unless it's cash. I only accept hundreds. You know - to keep the thickness of my wallet down.
Throw in the effort required to hand-make the envelope that holds your precious gift of cash, and you have a dead ringer. This combination trumps a gift card every day through Sunday.
Cut it out. I prefer to use a kraft knife and a cutting board, but scissors would work equally well on this project.
If you're a perfectionist, give this free money envelope printable a good hand score. I like this little Martha Stewart board and bone folder, found at most major craft stores.
Fold the outer triangle flaps first, followed by the bottom flap.
Little double sided tape, or a glue dot works well for a quick seal.
Stuff it with some cash. More than what we show here.
Little tape on the point of the flap works great here too.
Enjoy the spoils of victory!

She doesn't claim to have all the answers, she only claims that YOU have the answers already and you just aren't taking the time in your life to find them.

Happy Halloween
Halloween is by far my favorite holiday, and nothing makes me happier than spending it in New York City, where there's always so much to do and everyone gets really into the costumed revelry. This year's plans include a stop by the Village Halloween Parade (an annual tradition), a party ominously titled Abaddon that's set to feature live blood wrestling, and an attempt to cramp into Vice's blowout anniversary party in Williamsburg.
The party actually started last night at the co-headlined Mastodon/Dethklok show, which also featured Converge and High on Fire. We got there early enough to catch the support acts, and found dead-center, second-row balcony seats from which we could best admire the visuals and enjoy all the fumes in the room. A full review is forthcoming, but in the meantime—and in honor of all things skull-emblazed, pagan, metal and Halloween—here are some shots of Dethklok. The full collection can be seen here.
PS: Shout-out to the very much alive Chuck Biscuits.

I've been tagged by Nathaniel over @ The Film Experience... I'd just like to thank him for providing me with such a panic-inducer of a meme. Everyone knows I'm no good at social interaction! Dinner equals disaster. I just know I'll trip and send those dishes flying...
1. Pick a single person past or present who works in the film industry who you'd like to have dinner with and tell us why you chose this person.
I've decided to make a date with Jeanne Moreau.
I wavered and pondered over who I could invite to this shindig. But I couldn't think of anyone who I could really hold an evening long conversation with... I'd either be too prone to slap them for their recent misbehaviour (that means you, Jodie... and you too, Uma!), or too entranced by them to say much except "uh-huh". And the idea of bringing back someone from the dead is too unnerving for words. But Jeanne, sex symbol she may have been, always had an aura of generousness to her, and a sense that her feet were the firmest on the ground in any given place. She's a legend, yes, but an approachable one, and an endlessly fascinating one. Hopefully, we'd get on like a house on fire.
This is also a way of capping my almost-complete university module on the French New Wave, during which we watched not only what is probably Jeanne's most famous film, Jules et Jim, but also her breakthrough, Louis Malle's L'Ascenseur pour l'echafaud.
2. Set the table for your dinner. What would you eat? Would it be in a home or at a restaurant? And what would you wear? Feel free to elaborate on the details.
I'm no chef, so we're definitely off to a restaurant. Jeanne has recently turned eighty so she can wear whatever she feels comfortable in... however, she deserves the best, so I'm wearing a spotless dinner jacket. I'll take the Eurostar over to Paris (where I assume she lives, or at least nearby) and we'll go to a quiet but classy restaurant, where Jeanne can order whatever she likes. I'll pay any bill for this legend.
3. List five thoughtful questions you would ask this person during dinner.
1. You are perhaps the only French actress who was a large, influencial force in the New Wave and was recognised independantly of- and in some cases was more famous than- the directors. Do you see yourself as an important creative force in the movement, or simply someone under the guidance of those who around you?
2. You headed the Cannes jury in 1995. What was the experience like? Did you feel comfortable in control, or was the experience more a communal one?
3. You recently starred in Francois Ozon's Time to Leave, playing Melvin Poupaud's grandmother. Is working with and encouraging young actors important to you? Do you see that you have anything useful to teach the next generation of performers?
4. With such international fame and sex-symbol status there must surely have been the opportunity to leave entirely for Hollywood. Did you ever consider it? And do you think you've maintained a satisfactory balance between projects over the years?
5. You've not stopped working even into your ninth decade. Do you think you'll ever stop, and does working in cinema still hold the same value for you?
4. When all is said and done, select six bloggers to pass this Meme along to. Link back to Lazy Eye Theatre, so that people know the mastermind behind this Meme.
I'm tagging J.D., Glenn, Cal, Jesse, Scott, and Catherine. Who may choose to ignore this as if they never even read it. (Ooh, burn...)

My Dinner With... Jeanne Moreau
Labels: blogosphere, foreign, Jeanne Moreau, Jules et Jim, memes

I didn't even know Jeanne Moreau was still alive actually. She's looking very well for her age! Have you seen The Bride Wore Black? She's really good. Although Jules Et Jim is the ultimate performance, even though I got a bit tired of the characters in the film.
Thanks for tagging me btw. I just posted mine :-)

THANK YOU for the tag, Dave! I just have -no- idea who to choose though.
And hehehe, the word verification code is "dukcs". Random.

@ Cal: I haven't, but I've just added it to my rental queue. Looks good, somewhat of a Kill Bill percursor?
@ J.D.: Dinner with Saoirse isn't on the menu, then? :p

Hopefully it's already in your dairy, but in case you hadn't realised, next Wednesday is Valentine's Day. For the restaurant and card industries it's the year's first important date.
For the rest of us it's the first opportunity to take a step out of the winter blues and think about rosier times.
Rosier is probably the key word here as rosé, and sparkling at that, does, for lots of us, seem to be the wine to go with Valentine's day.
So, with that in mind here is some pink fizz to help you celebrate with your partner.
Bird in Hand Sparkling Pinot Noir 2017, Adelaide Hills (Waitrose £10.99 down from £14.99 until February 20) is an Aussie fizz that is very frivolous in all the right ways. Very pale pink in colour with a lovely mousse, the bouquet is all about red fruits, strawberries and cherries, indeed its quite easy to think strawberries and cream here.
The plate is crisp with more red fruits and a long, soft finish.
On offer, this is great value, one to keep in the fridge and maybe not just for valentine's day.
On a slightly more serious note Taittinger Brut Prestige Rosé NV, Champagne (widely available including Majestic, Ocado and Asda but on offer at Waitrose £36.99 from
£49.99 until February 20) is gorgeous champagne.
Taittinger is one of the last remaining family owned prestige Champagne houses and across their range the quality really does shine.
This is a classic champagne blend of pinot noir, chardonnay and pinot meunier and family member Vitalie Taittinger describes drinking the wine as the 'sensation of having a big kiss of the wine' – which seems very fitting for the occasion.
The colour is vibrant pink with a constant stream of fine bubbles, with notes of crushed
strawberries, raspberries and cherries on the nose with a little spice, followed a beautifully harmonious palate with more red fruit and some zesty acidity before a very long finish.
This is a little more serious than many rosé Champagnes and would happily work as an aperitif or with a red fruit-based dessert or even perhaps with a delicate salmon dish.
I have long thought that one of the best value supermarket Champagnes is the Co-op's Les Pionniers Brut and now they have added a rosé which will be released on February 12, just in time for Valentine's Day.
Les Pionniers NV Rosé Champagne (Co-op £21.99), made for the Co-op by Piper Heidsieck (as is the Brut NV) is a blend of pinot noir and chardonnay and has spent up to four years ageing the cellar before being released.
A lovely bright pink colour with fine, persistent bubbles rising in the glass, the nose has red fruits and a touch of orange zest, which is followed by a really mouth filling palate with well-balanced acidity and more red fruits.
This is very good value given the quality and is another champagne that could easily start the evening or match a salmon dish very happily.

Regardless of whether you want to boost your house's value or just make it better to look at, you have to know things can go wrong more often than right. That's just how it is with improvement jobs. Good carpenters are hard to find and it is a skill that takes years of practice. Sometimes a plain handyman is not the way to go when doing home improvements. That's what makes good home improvement advice (such as that given below) so vital.
When considering your next big project, start by securing help from your family and friends. It might be hard to get the assistance you need once you have gotten started. You might also have problems completing the project on time, which can add more stress and work to your life.
Make sure you keep the filter for your air conditioning unit clean. If they get clogged, they must work much harder to cool the home, which takes more energy. This will also cost you money on the time it stays on. Each month, switch out the filter to avoid problems.
It is important to always shut off the water when you are beginning a project in your kitchen or bathroom. Find the shutoff for water in your home before you begin any kind of work on rooms that use water. By doing this, you are making sure that you do not get a flood.
Some things often overlooked when doing home improvements or updating are gutters, downspouts and chimneys. Inspecting these areas of your house is important to ascertain they are in proper working order and also to make any needed repairs. A dirty chimney is more likely to catch fire and clogged gutters can cause water damage.
Before applying paint or stain to something made from wood, smooth the surface with sandpaper and wipe the object with a tack cloth or damp rag. The smooth finish can be achieved by using a fine grit sandpaper. Use a damp cloth to remove dust and be sure of the smoothest finish.
When thinking about projects that can improve your home, do not overlook the landscaping. The front of your home is the most noticeable thing, and you want to showcase it to impress neighbors and visitors. Ensure your grass is cut and clean, and think about planting shrubbery and some other flowers to make it look great.
Visit some open houses for newer homes before you decide what home improvements you want to make. It can be a big help to see things actually installed in a home that is similar to yours, rather than viewing colors and hypothetical improvements inside a home improvement center. Many homes like this get a decorator to do furniture and window treatments to complete the look, so you are able to recreate the looks you like most and not have to make a lot of mistakes when you do your house.
Use old baby food jars to add organization to your workspace. Superglue or screw the lids of the jars to the underside of a wall shelf. You should put small items inside the jars like screws, beads nails and more. You then have to twist your jars into place again underneath the shelf. This maximizes the usage of your shelf and makes great use of little jars that are not used for anything else.
When thinking about projects that can improve your home, do not overlook the landscaping. The front lawn is one of the first things that people see, and you will want this to look exceptional. Regularly cut the grass and place a few flowers and plants to dress it up.

If you're planning to use conventional wood in heating you house, understand that this might not be a good thing to do. A lot of the warm air is released into the chimney. Also, a wood fire needs a lot of oxygen to burn, depleting your home of fresh air.
Use natural products for your design elements if your budget allows. Real building materials like stone, wood and ceramic are in virtually every case superior to their synthetic equivalents. They are much more attractive and durable to use. Costlier natural products are likely to generate savings in the longer term, since synthetic materials will need frequent replacement.
If you'd like to re-purpose a luggage rack, try transforming it into a side table! Simply take the glass out of a big picture frame and attach it to the rack using a permanent glue. Add some books, a pretty lamp, and your side table is complete.
Look around for home improvement ideas and inspiration well in advance of beginning a project. If you immediately start exploring all of your options, you will be able to build up a wider and more carefully chosen array of possibilities. Removing the rush to find just the right color scheme will reduce the stress of your renovation.
If you want to create a peaceful environment, pick out colors like blue, green, and purple in lighter shades. Stick to airy fabrics, like linen and cotton, instead of heavy brocades and dark patterns. Use potpourri, candles or oil warmers to give your home a uniquely tranquil scent that means home to you.
Move your furniture away from your walls to make your home look bigger. In addition to a bigger look, a contemporary feel is added.
Many consumers do not consider the dangers associated with home improvement projects. Do not purchase drywall (also known as wall board or sheet rock) that was made in China. In the last few years, the amount of drywall being brought in from China has increased. A lot of it is exposed to unacceptable quality control. It's not only the crumbling and buckling you have to worry about. Some Chinese drywall can actually emit harmful gases.
Money that a homeowner invests in installing new windows is seldom wasted. Quality energy-efficient windows can make heating and cooling a home significantly cheaper, thanks to the way that they prevent unwanted heat transfer and keep internal and external air separated. You will be rewarded with substantial savings on your heating and cooling bills.
Research ideas for your home improvement projects before you begin. It should be easy to walk through room to room of your home and find many ideas for improvement. Doing this will also help relieve the stress that is caused from having to rush to figure things out.
Do you have a spotty lawn with areas where grass will not grow? Invest in some fresh grass seed to work on bringing your patchy lawn back from the grave. If the lawn is uneven, your home won't look that great. Revitalize your lawn today.
Talk to your neighbors regarding drainage for a big landscaping project. A good plan will involve water drainage. You should not dump on neighboring property. If you can get together and come to an agreement it will be better for everyone.
Is your home too bright or too hot for your comfort? You can gain better control over sunlight's effect on your home by adding some tint to your windows. People of all ability levels can complete this project. In the end, it will even save you money as it reduces how often you need to run your AC unit.
If you'd like to freshen up your bathroom's appearance, give them a fresh new glaze. Fresh glazing can transform an old bathroom. Though it is expensive to replace all bathroom flooring and fixtures, it is usually possible to put on new glaze for a very reasonable price. Glazing your bathroom is a terrific way to increase the value of your home without spending a lot of money.
Installing new door knobs in place of old ones will increase safety and improve home appearance. You will not have to spend more than one or two hours working on this. All you need is a screwdriver. You can purchase replacement knobs at your local home improvement or hardware store.
Try staining the floors of your basement. It is cheaper to stain a concrete floor than it is to replace one, and the look can be very trendy. Adding a stain makes your floors easier to clean and improves their durability too. Try to find a stain that adds both shine and luster. It can give the floors a nice richness and give off the appearance that they are really expensive.
Pick a reputable contractor that listen to your needs. It is vital that you trust your contractor, but making your contractor aware of your concerns is just as important. Those contractors who are unwilling to listen to you may commit results that you did not intend and may even directly go against your wishes. Be sure that they listen very well to you.
It can be costly to replace flooring. If you are looking to save money, think about staining the concrete subfloor instead of going with one of the above options. This adds a versatility to your floor, along with a great modern look that carries an industrial edge.
Make sure to create an all inclusive budget. Unexpected expenses can quickly add up and one slight mistake can throw your whole budget off track. Prevent that by having backup plans, and you will be better prepared to deal with any sudden changes, for instance if flooring you selected is not available.
Does your floor appear old and worn out? You can always rip out your floor and put down wood flooring. This might seem like cheap flooring, but it is actually quite nice. Most people find that it is so easy to install that they can do it themselves.
Put some ceiling fans in the rooms that you are in the most to get some air moving. The fans will decrease your dependance on your air conditioner during the summer. They also help push the warm air down during the winter, increasing the efficiency of your furnace. The majority of fans have the ability to bring air upward or force it downward, based on your preference at a given time.
Comparable estimates are key when trying to choose a contractor. Be sure to submit the same list of repairs and improvements to each contractor with no changes or additions. If you make changes, and get different estimates, you won't be comparing the same thing.
A new look and fresh appearance can be achieved easily with a low-cost coat of paint on your walls. You can browse through the different color options by checking out paint chips at the hardware store. Find the ones that are fun and exciting for you! You can always paint over what you do not like!
Figure out how long you plan to reside in the home. If you only plan to live there for a short period of time, it's not worth it to make expensive upgrades to the home. You might want to repair problems, but leave upgrades to someone who will live their longer.
Make sure you maintain the blacktop on your driveway by repairing cracks as soon as they appear. Maintaining a clean driveway with no debris is essential.
When you are taping sheetrock, make sure you have a stainless steel taping knife. This knife is easy to clean and will last so you can use it in the future. Clean this stainless steel knife well, and then store it properly. You'll be able to use it forever.
Sheet Metal
A room can receive a great face-lift simply from a coat of paint. Visit a home improvement store to study a variety of paint chips. Select colors that you find fun and exciting! The neat thing about painting is that you can re-paint if you don't like the results.
When making home improvements, there are a number of screws you can use. Determine which kinds of screws you will need for your next project. Wood screws are ideal for tasks that incorporate wood. Sheet metal screws are best for sheet metal.
Do not eyeball your measurements. This is especially important for measurements that require something to be level or fit at an angle. Measure twice, cut once. Remember to use a level, speed square and tape measure.
Some home improvement projects are harder than others. You may even find some of them relatively easy. If, however, you lack an understanding of how best to complete them, you may end up doing yourself a great disservice. The tips above can help you get started. Utilize the tips from the above article to ensure that your home improvement projects are done correctly.
Make sure your home doesn't stand out too much when compared to the other homes in your area. A house that is too unique may be thought of as an eyesore, and won't sell well later.

I recently found out that a young relative has cancer. Not that it's ever cool or okay when someone announces that they have been dealt the cancer card but it seems especially devastating when it's a little kid.
I think about my kids. They mean everything to me and I don't even know how I would handle something like that. But I guess you don't until you have to. I feel for the little people and their families that have to go through it. Makes me think WTF?

In 2011, much of the inaugural edition of Radar L.A. -- the biennial festival of new works by renowned international and L.A.-based theater companies and artists -- was centered around downtown's LATC on Spring St. and REDCAT in the Walt Disney Concert Hall complex beneath Bunker Hill.
Radar 2013 includes both of those venues but also now stretches out to Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades and UCLA's Freud Playhouse in Westwood (and returns to the Kirk Douglas Theater in Culver City).
Perhaps the most striking difference between Radar 2011 and 2013, however, is that this year's festival will be reclaiming three of Broadway's mothballed movie and vaudeville palaces (along with the Grand Central Market) for live theater, temporarily transforming the street into not quite the Great White Way West perhaps, but nevertheless something that lends the performances there some of the opulence and glamour of a more accommodating age.
Mark Murphy, the executive director of REDCAT and a co-programmer of Radar with Center Theatre Group's Diane Rodriguez and New York curator Mark Russell, says the decision to use the Broadway venues came as a direct outgrowth of 2011.
"That downtown area was so lively with theatergoing pedestrians in 2011," Murphy recalls, "that it made us think about ways to help people discover more of downtown. We kept pointing out different architectural features or talking about these historic theaters that it seemed useful to [include] a bit more of downtown. Locals as well as out-of-towners were discovering something new and will this time."
That discovery will focus on three Broadway theaters. The Palace (1911), a former vaudeville house that once featured the likes of the Marx Brothers, W.C. Fields and Harry Houdini, is being used by Lemi Ponifasio, the Samoan choreographer and founder of New Zealand's MAU theater, for the first public performances of MAU's Stones in Her Mouth.
The Million Dollar Theater (1918), which was Sid Grauman's first L.A. movie house, is being taken over by Mexico City-based director Claudio Valdés Kuri for El Gallo, his comic look at the creation of a new music theater work that will be performed and sung in an imaginary language.
And then there's 1927's Tower Theater, which is hosting the premiere of a REDCAT residency collaboration by Rotterdam's Wunderbaum and Los Angeles Poverty Department (LAPD) called Hospital.
With its Baroque-eclectic façade and French Renaissance interior modeled after Paris' Palais Garnier opera house, the Tower, which hasn't been a working movie theater since 1988, embodies both the gilded extravagance of the Broadway movie palaces along with what turned out to be the considerable technical challenges of bringing them up to international theater festival standards.
"It doesn't necessarily have all the ideal creature comforts," Murphy notes, "like functioning air conditioning -- though there are fans -- or fully equipped dressing rooms. There's no [stage light] grid." There are also no theater seats. They were torn out in 1988 and the raked floor was leveled when the interior was used for the nightclub sequences in 1992's Mambo Kings (though Murphy assures that there will be audience seating for Hospital performances).
What the theater offered in abundance, at least according to LAPD's John Malpede and Wunderbaum's Walter Bart, was the cool factor.
"We shopped around for a lot of places going back to last spring. We looked at some of the other theaters," recalls Malpede. "Of the other possibilities, [the Tower] turned out to be the coolest."
"If you look up, you have the feeling that you're in some sort of time bubble of decay," Bart agrees. "I think it's quite a creepy theater. ... The first time I walked in here it looked like a ghost house a little bit. But also very nice. I like the feeling of it. It makes [the experience] more intense, I hope."
"Creepy" and "decay" turn out to be understatements. "Ghost house," however, seems right on the mark. Apart from the Mambo Kings-scarred main auditorium and the stripped concessions area, much of the theater looks eerily untouched, as if it was simply abandoned in place after the last reel of its last movie.
Beyond the still-stunning marble and columned lobby, with its sweeping grand staircase, stained glass window and crystal chandelier, the theater's peeling paint and ancient carpeting is perfumed with a mustiness that, as one descends into the warren of utility rooms beneath the theater, becomes heavy with the unmistakable odor of street urine, wafting down from some alleyway alcove above.
That state of decay, muses Malpede, "sort of reflects on the precarious position involved in people's own worry about their health, but also about the healthcare systems that they end up in."
In other words, it is a perfect setting for Hospital, which is being described as a sardonic "ficto-mentary" that blends satires of TV medical dramas with real-life encounters with patients, doctors, healthcare professionals and reformers in both the U.S. and the Netherlands.
"One of the things that's going on now in the Netherlands over the last ten years or so," says Malpede, "is the healthcare environment has gotten privatized. ... So it moved in a direction more like the U.S. And with the Affordable Care Act it looked like the U.S. is moving slightly in the other direction. ... So it seems like something that's in play and [Wunderbaum and LAPD] could really connect on."
The connection will mostly happen on the large, boxing ring set designed by Maarten van Otterdijk just beneath the Tower's old projection screen. The ring will function as both stage and TV studio, whose live feeds will appear on the screen during the performance.
Making that possible fell to veteran technical director Todd Kramer, who, among other hurdles, had to figure out a way to bring power up from the sub-cellar for both the TV studio and the lighting grid he had to erect in the balcony.
What that meant, says Kramer, was "running a lot of heavy cable and having a lot of good people to do that. Getting some transformers put into the building so that we had clean power, [which] meant people carrying a very heavy piece of machinery upstairs, down the alley, through a hall to make that happen."
And if the Tower is now momentarily state-of-the-art enough to present cutting-edge live theater, the best reason for Hospital's L.A. Broadway premiere, Malpede adds, is that the historic Broadway Theater District is "a pretty happening spot."
"It always seemed weird the notion of revitalizing Broadway, because I always thought it was the most vital street in Los Angeles," he says. "So I didn't quite get it. But it might mean making it vital for somebody else."
2013 Radar L.A. Festival runs Sept. 24-Oct. 1.

National Standard Development
Review of process for the development of Forest Stewardship Standards
How can FSC increase the certified area covered by national and regional Forest Stewardship Standards and so increase local stakeholder support where currently we rely on Certification Body interim standards?
Development and approval of national and regional Forest Stewardship Standards has been transfered from Accreditation Services International to the FSC Policy and Standards Program. This means that national and regional FSC Forest Stewardship Standards will be developed along similar lines to international standards developed within FSC.
The draft standard (FSC-STD-60-006) addresses this change and builds in mechanisms such as allowing regional approaches; prior approval of the national or regional processes; and the opportunity for bodies other than accredited FSC National Working Groups to develop standards.
The development process of FSC-STD-60-006 is completed.
These mechanisms together with prioritization of regions and staff dedicated to this task will mean a more efficient processes and approval for FSC National Forest Stewardship Standards and increase stakeholder support.
If you have any questions regarding the development of national indicators, please contact email@example.com

Specific deductions: entertainment: training courses
S45 Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005, S1298 Corporation Tax Act 2009
Training for employees and franchisees
The cost of food and accommodation provided for employees attending training courses for the purpose of the trade is not disallowable under the legislation. However, if food and accommodation are provided as part of training given to any other person free of charge then the cost is entertainment and is disallowable.
Traders may provide training for people who are not their own employees. Examples would be self-employed sales staff or commission agents. Although the training itself (such as the cost of speakers or hire of a room) is an allowable expense, any food or overnight accommodation provided for the attendees is disallowable entertainment.
This principle was confirmed in the VAT case of Customs and Excise v Shaklee International [1981] STC 776 (see BIM45012), where the point at issue was the food and hotel costs of residential courses organised by a sales organisation for its distributors. Similarly, the cost of any food or overnight accommodation provided at recruitment or selection events for prospective self-employed sales staff or commission agents is disallowable entertainment. This is because, prior to their selection, they are unlikely to be directly involved with the trade, are not under any obligation to provide, and are in fact not providing, proper and sufficient quid pro quo (see BIM45014).
Traders may also provide training for their franchisees. In many such cases the (usually lump sum) payment made for the franchise secures a commitment by the franchiser to provide training. In this event, the training is not provided free of charge and any food and accommodation provided is part of the cost of the training and is not disallowable under the legislation. However, any hospitality over and above that which is included in the terms of the franchise is disallowable under the legislation.

My favorite things to eat at Friendly's are the choose-your-own-toppings ice cream sundae, the mini cheeseburgers, and the hot dog with fries meal. Twice my parents have let me get the big kid's meal. Then I chose the three mini cheeseburger meal with the waffle fries. That was yummy. When I get the choose-your-own-toppings sundae I choose crunched peanut butter cups, crushed butterfingers and crushed up oreos. Sometimes I get chocolate sauce.
Sometimes the waiters put pickles on the side to eat. I like pickles on the side.
I give this restaurant four thumbs up (I have to borrow my sister's thumbs.)

How would you go about doing this...add your lead page link on your Social Networking sites like MySpace,FacebooK ect. If done correctly they will will seek YOU out because of their perception of your expertise.
2- A free report or ebook especially designed to TEACH not PROSPECT
The report/ebook should contain valuable information. It must offer a clear benefit that will help a new recruit in their efforts in building a team such as Social Network marketing, Video production etc. Any information regarding the products and or services of the company that you represent should be given last. Again there is no way to tell whether or not you prospect is intrested in you or an opportunity and there is no way to tell wheter or not you even want this person on your team...be selective.
3- Follow up e-mail/Autoresponder
Along with the free report, a follow up system should be provided with some sort of generic training sent out at a given intervals form time to time to continue havin gthe prospect see you as an expert in gievn company. You should approach the leads at least 5-10 times beacuse usually most people do not reacte overthe first email that is sent. Verify that your Autoresponder has a system of passing through spam filters.
4- Good support
Enough support is necessary in this business to encourage one to become a distributor. Whenever a new distributor steps into the business, a follow up e-mail system is required for him to get enough training to market the products effectively. Personal support is also needed, therefore creating relationships between upline and new distributors is mandatory.
5- The part played by you
Your skill, effort, activity, and passion are needed in this business. You should be open to accept fresh ideas and strategies always.
