The Best Looks from the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival
The best fashion moments happen during big events. All of the popular Hollywood stars packed their bags, left Venice and turned to Toronto. The International Toronto Film Festival started on September 7 and lasted until Sunday. During this time many A-listers took over this big Canadian town and transformed it into their fashion scene. These big events gather the most popular stars in the movie industry, that are always ready to flaunt perfect looks.
In spite of their busy schedule and the many events, they have to attend, the celebrities find the time to get ready and look amazing every time they make an appearance. All of them bring fresh, new glamorous moments that are worth taking a look at.
Nicole Kidman was a part of the celebrity crowd at the TIFF. The actress attended the Festival to present even two of her latest movies- "The Killing of a Sacred Deer' and "The Upside'. This is probably the highlight year of her career, and the 50-year-old actress looks better than ever. For the HFPA & InStyle Annual Celebration event, Nicole chose an astonishing dress by Valentino. The long-sleeved dress featured a bold pattern and is marked as one of the best fashion moments during TIFF.
Another jaw-dropping look is the one by Emma Stone for the premiere of her new movie "Battle of the Sexes'. Stone proved that a simple white dress is enough to make a fashion statement. The actress stunned in a midi pencil white dress by Tom Ford with gold-chain straps. Emma finished off the look with white stilettos and a chic golden clutch.
Katherine Waterston served a stunning appearance in a tulle dress from the Dior Resort 2018 collection. Katherine went with a simple black tulle dress, decorated with multicolored sequins. She added a pair of black Dior pumps and left everyone in awe at the premiere of "The Current War'.

Ladies and gentleman, please buckle your seat belts, we are are about to embark on a little flight through my iTunes cloud. There are a whopping 965 apps stuffed inside my cloud that I am certain at any moment apps will come raining out of the sky right onto my head.
One day after school I sat at my computer feeling a bit overwhelmed by the colossal amount of apps I had to sort through, when I suddenly had my Newton moment. Except it wasn't an apple that fell onto my head. But a virtual app falling from my over-stuffed iTunes cloud. I realized quite clearly, it is not WHAT app I should use in my classroom, but rather HOW I plan to use that app to promote student learning and engagement.
Each week when I sync my student iPods and update the apps I have selected for student learning, I thoroughly consider what apps I will upload and HOW I want my students to learn. My first thought is how will this app meet my students needs and engage learning? My overarching goal for all student learning is to utilize and promote the four C's: creativity, collaboration, use of critical thinking skills, and communication skills.
So next time you are cruising through your iTunes cloud contemplating WHAT app you should add to your students' iPods or iPads, consider changing your thought pattern. Do reverse planning and think, HOW do I want my students to use this app to create, collaborate, think critically, and communicate.
I challenge you to even do a little spring cleaning. Start getting rid of those apps that are littering your iTune cloud and student iPods/iPads. Keep your cloud clean and refresh the apps your students access often.
Here is a list of apps which I consider to be quality creative apps. The following apps can be used in a variety of ways and help to promote the 4 C's:
- Sonic Pics
- Storyrobe
- Puppet Pals plus Director's Pass
- Splice or Free Splice
- iMovie
- PS Express – Photoshop
- Comic Touch Lite or Comic Touch
- Voice Memos
If you are interested in how I consider an app to be worthy of my students' time, please read my previous blog titled "A Letter to Educational App Developers: A Call for Action."

At ASIS 2013 in Chicago, Cisco and ActionPacked! Networks will be demonstrating new Cisco Medianet capabilities integrated into the VSM (Video Surveillance Manager) 7.2 solution and ActionPacked! networks' LiveAction.
With this release, an MSI-enabled management station such as LiveAction will be able to securely connect with the media server, IP cameras, and the client viewer to troubleshoot QoE issues. LiveAction has built compelling visualizations of the progress of a mediatrace and results.
Troubleshooting with Mediatrace provides IT administrators the ability to quickly detect any network issues and pinpoint the root cause these issues in the network. This is significant in IP video surveillance deployments of any scale as they operate in a shared network environment and contend for resources with other applications running on the network.
A sample screenshot below:
Mediatrace in progress:
If you are at ASIS 2013, be sure to check out the demo at booth #2223.
Another key highlight is one of MSI-signaled flow metadata on all legs of the media flow: from the camera to the Media server to the client. This helps IT network administrators intelligently apply QoS policies by giving them the ability to differentiate the Cisco IP Surveillance related media flows traversing the network.
There are also several exciting enhancements planned for the next VSM release to deepen Cisco Medianet and MSI capabilities with real-time notifications based on pre-set thresholds on key performance metrics.
To learn more about Cisco Medianet capabilities such as Mediatrace and Flow Metadata, please visit www.cisco.com/go/medianet

The unacceptable air quality in our cities is a major challenge for the country. Almost 80% of the cities violate the standards prescribed by the Central Pollution Control Board. A recent study by The Energy and Resources Institute (Teri) showed that the whole Indo-Gangetic plain is severely polluted on account of particulate matter.
The situation would relentlessly worsen and spread to other parts of the country if remedial actions are not taken immediately. The transport sector is one of the reasons behind high levels of pollutants in cities.
Mobility demands are increasing with economic growth. The situation will only deteriorate if negative externalities associated with vehicles — emissions of pollutants — are not reduced.
The central government recently announced transition to BS VI vehicle emission norms by 2020. The move is certainly a positive step in improving the air quality of Indian cities. However, past experiences in implementing stricter emission norms in India and other countries, have shown the need for further actions in order to reap the maximum benefit out of such schemes.
Firstly, studies conducted on Euro 5 and Euro 6 vehicles in Europe have pointed out significant differences between the emissions of vehicles in the lab for type approval and the actual emissions of vehicles on-road. Clearly, the type approval testing – the current testing procedure for certification of a new model of vehicles – alone is not enough to assess the claimed emission reduction in vehicles of new technology.
Secondly, BS IV will be implemented all over the country in April 2017 and BS VI by 2020. This implies that we would still have a huge legacy of old in-use vehicles without the best available emission control systems, thus obscuring the positive impact of introduction of BS VI norms over the years.
After the development of a new model of a vehicle, the manufacturers send a sample vehicle to testing authorities to certify the vehicle according to type approval norms. The vehicles are tested in the labs and issued a certificate if found complying with the required emission norms.
Despite passing the type approval tests, vehicles may emit more in the real world conditions. To counter this, Teri recommends that a new programme, "in-use vehicle compliance" should be introduced.
Under this programme, a small sample of vehicles of select models should be picked up from road and again tested as per the type approval norms after discounting the deterioration of running on road over the years. In case of a comprehensive non-compliance, a detailed investigation must be issued which may lead to recall of that model of the vehicle, if necessary.
The pollution under control (PUC) mechanism for regular inspection of vehicles plying on-road has weaknesses in terms of technology and execution. India must leverage new technologies in vehicles — on-board diagnostic system (OBD) — to make the PUC mechanism much more robust. The OBD can indicate the malfunctioning of components responsible for emission control.
Hence, it can be used for inspection of vehicles. However, it must be ensured that OBD system itself is not tampered in the first place. The vehicles failing OBD inspection should then be tested on a rigorous loaded mode test at advanced inspection and certification centres. These two steps will help in confirming that all the high emitting vehicles are not able to pass the PUC test.
Older vehicles
While India is transitioning to stricter emission norms — BS IV and BS VI; older vehicles, currently running on the roads, will continue to emit pollutants several times higher. In order to reduce the overall emissions from the transport sector and expedite the transition to BS VI, it is important to modernise the existing vehicle fleet.
A wide variety of options are available for fleet modernisation. All vehicles with advanced emission control technologies passing the above mentioned PUC test must be given special privileges such as reduced parking fee, entry to low emission zones and so on. On the other hand, older vehicles must be labelled to employ restrictions in their mobility.
This will incentivise the vehicle owners to shift from older vehicles to vehicles equipped with advanced emission control technologies. Financial mechanisms must be deployed to incentivise the vehicle owners of older technologies to either scrap their vehicles or retrofit them with cleaner technologies, if possible. All BS-I and older vehicles failing two consecutive PUC tests must be phased out.
In conclusion, in order to reap the maximum benefit out of BS VI norms, three follow-up actions are extremely necessary: 1) ensuring that the vehicles emit the same amount of pollutants as they are certified for in the labs; 2) strengthened inspection and maintenance system for in-use vehicles, and 3) reduction in the number of older, highly polluting vehicles running on the road.

Both parties are vital to each other's success, yet often times, the agent/underwriter relationship is strained. Why?
There could be countless reasons, but ultimately many agents feel that their underwriters make their lives more difficult by asking for additional information, not providing a competitive price, or just plain make it a challenge to make sales.
Although it may seem that some underwriters don't want to write business or overanalyze basic risks, they have a tough job to do. They want to write business, but equally important, they want to write profitable business.
No, underwriters are not all the same and some are better than others, but if you want to be a successful agent, establishing a positive relationship with your underwriter is critical.
I asked one of my company marketing representatives to ask her team of underwriters a basic...

Nobody Bodine is a nobody who came from a nobody and will always be a nobody.
He disappears into the shadows—no one sees him if he doesn't want them to. He exists in neither the white man's world nor the tribe's, dispensing vigilante justice when he sees fit. There's no other place for a man like him in this world.
Until Melinda Mitchell shows up on the rez. From the first moment he lays eyes on her, he can tell there's something different about her. For starters, she's not afraid of him. She asks where his scars came from, and why he has so many. But more than that, she sees him. For the first time in his life, Nobody feels like a somebody in her eyes.
Melinda has come west to run the new day care on the White Sandy Reservation. She's intrigued by this strange man and his tattered skin, and when she discovers that he's a self-appointed guardian angel for the boy in her care, she realizes that there's more to Nobody than meets the eyes. But how far will he go to keep the boy safe? And will she be able to draw him into the light?
In case you've missed it.. I don't know how… See how much I love Nobody here… And now Sarah is nice enough to visit me and give us more of him to love with this excerpt.
Chapter 10 Excerpt
What was left of the firelight caught the colors of her hair as she smiled a wide, open smile at him. She was sitting on a blanket, her skirt fanned out around her. "I've been waiting on you, Mr. Bodine."
He whipped his hat off his head. "Sorry to have kept you waiting. I was making sure."
She accepted this. "I was worried about you."
He wasn't sure what he was supposed to say to this. People didn't worry about him. At least, they didn't worry that he was all right. More than likely, they worried that he was around and up to no good.
She looked up at him, her eyes shining in the low light. "Come," she said, patting the blanket next to her. "Have a seat."
Nobody didn't move. It was one thing to have had her in his arms—on his lap, essentially—when he'd been too wounded to be considered a threat. But he was better now. Not great, but better. Most people would be afraid of him.
Not her. "I don't bite," she said, her tone light and teasing. "And I won't make you talk this time. Just . . . come sit with me. Please."
He wanted to do just that, maybe slip his arm back around her waist again and feel the weight of her body anchored against his. It was the sort of thing that probably happened all the time. Rebel sat like that with his wife on a regular basis. There was something about it that seemed normal.
He wanted to sit with her. She wanted him to do just that. So why couldn't he make his feet move? Why did he feel like maybe he shouldn't have come?
"Nobody?" Her voice was soft in the night—concerned. "Why won't you come sit?"
He realized he was crushing his hat. He tried to stop but it didn't work, so he ducked his head. He couldn't even come up with a response to a simple question.
He couldn't be normal.
He heard her get up. She was probably going in—had probably given up on him. Just as well. He began to move back into the shadows. He'd go check on Jamie. Yeah, that's what he needed to do.
"Don't." He startled at how close her voice had gotten. His head popped up. She was walking around the fire. Toward him. "Don't go."
He stood, rooted to the spot as she closed the distance between them. One of her pretty little hands reached out and settled on his side, where the bandage was. "How are you?"
Her voice was like the trickle of water in his stream, cool and inviting after a hot summer day. "Good," he managed to get out as her fingers skimmed over his shirt.
She took another small step toward him, her hand settling on his hip. "Do you need Madeline to look at it?"
"No, Ma'am. It's healing." She gave him a soft smile as she took another step in. His heart began to pound. He didn't like it. He could face down six men and get stabbed in the gut and not be nervous about it at all, but one woman with wildfire hair made him all jumpy.
"Did you take the antibiotics?" Her other hand settled around his waist. The only thing keeping her chest from his was his hat.
Jesus, she was playing with fire. She had no idea what he was capable of. None. "No."
He waited for the scolding. At least, that's what her sister would have done. But not her. Her fingertips dug into the waistband of his jeans, pulling him forward. Into her. "Not even as a personal favor to me?" she asked, her lips curving into the most secret of smiles.
Nobody set his jaw. She was playing with him, that was all. She was just dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight because this was all a joke. Maybe she got off on him being dangerous. Maybe she was just trying to prove something to her sister.
She tilted her head to one side, looking up at him through her lashes. He'd read books where the woman would do that and then lead the man over the edge of a cliff. He'd never understood why any man would fall for it—until now.
It was the same look she'd given him when she'd woken up with her head in his lap. God help him, she wasn't afraid of him. He didn't know why she wasn't, but he was pretty sure he didn't care anymore.
"I'm going to kiss you," she said, her voice barely a whisper as she stood up on her tiptoes.
His fingers dug into his hat. It was a good hat, but he didn't mind that it was meeting its death in the line of duty like this. He braced himself for her touch. He would not lose control. He would not do anything that hurt her. "Okay."
She stopped then and he was just sure that he'd blown it by opening his big, fat mouth and doing the stupid thing—talking. But instead she just stared at him like—like—like he was the only man in the world. Just him. "Are you going to kiss me back?"
He didn't have a clue what he was supposed to say to that. So he didn't say anything. Instead, he let go of his poor hat and pulled her into his arms and crushed her lips against his.
She made a little squeaking noise in the back of her throat. Damn it all to hell, this is what she did to him. He made a promise to himself that he wouldn't hurt her and what did he do? Scare the hell out of her.
He pulled away, fighting the urge to bolt. "Sorry," he mumbled, wondering if it was worth it to get his hat before he ran. He let go of her. "I—sorry."
"Oh, no you don't." The next thing he knew, she had looped her arms around his neck and was holding him in place. "Don't you dare kiss me like that and then disappear."
"I don't want to hurt you." There. He'd said what he should have said earlier.
"Then don't hurt me." Her lips brushed over his, a whisper of a touch. Jesus, she was going to kill him. "Just kiss me slow and hard."
He couldn't help the way his arms shook as he tightened his grip on her, her breasts pressed against his chest. It'd been a long time. God, he hoped he wouldn't screw this up. "Yes, Ma'am."
She made a sound that could have been a giggle but could have been a sigh as he pressed his lips against hers. So, so long. Too damn long. Going slow was harder than he'd thought it would be, but he wanted to remember everything—the way she tilted her head to one side and sighed, the way she felt in his arms—the way she made him feel. Strong and real and alive.
Then she traced her tongue over his lips. He heard a noise and realized that it was him, groaning. She tasted of sweet oranges and sunsets and something wild and free.
He had to be careful. If he hurt her, he'd never forgive himself. So instead of filling his hands with her ass, he forced his hands to glide down over her clothing. Instead of ripping her shirt off and feasting himself on her breasts, he focused on kissing her.
Which was a good plan until her teeth nipped his lower lip—not hard enough to draw blood, but more than enough to make his dick stand up at attention. The desire hit him so hard that it worried him. What if he lost control?
Better not to. "Don't," he growled, grabbing her arms from around his neck and holding them to her side.
She shook her head in a slightly dazed way. "What? Why not?" Then she realized that he had her arms pinned. She raised an eyebrow at him as she flexed her wrists, testing his grip. But amazingly, she didn't scream or sob in terror. She just licked her lips. "No biting. Got it."
"I didn't say that."
"Then why shouldn't I?" She leaned forward and he was powerless to stop her as her teeth skimmed along his neck. "If you liked it."
His arms shook. 'Liked it' wasn't the way he'd describe it. It made him rock-hard for her. It made him want to do things that he had no business doing to her.
And the fact that she kept pushing him instead of running away from him—it made him mad. He didn't know why, but it did. "Why aren't you afraid of me?" he demanded. It came out meaner than he meant it to, but he couldn't help it. Why couldn't she see the dangerous man everyone else did?
"Why are you afraid of me?" she replied in her quiet tone.
"I'm not," he snapped back even as he knew he was. He was scared of this fearless woman. He didn't like being scared of anyone, especially beautiful women. "You should be afraid of me. I'm a bad man. I hurt people." These were unavoidable facts. No one would dispute them.
"You protected me. You keep Jamie safe."
"You don't understand."
She stared up at him, all wide eyes and innocence. Could she really not see the truth? "Then make me understand, Nobody. I like you. You're an unusual man with an unusual talent and a code of honor that's all your own. A gunslinger from the Old West—minus the gun—just like the hero in a Louis L'Amour book. How does that make you a bad man?"
He wanted the talking to stop. He wanted to go back to the kissing part and he wanted to let the kissing go on and on until they were tangled up in each other, unable to tell where his skin ended and hers began.
But to do that would be to lie to her. And he wasn't going to do that. Not to her.
Stupid codes of honor. He would have rather her never known what kind of animal he was but she'd forced his hand, all because she wasn't afraid of him.
He couldn't bear to look her in the eyes. So he roughly pulled her into his chest and put his mouth near her ear. At first she was soft against him, like she was ready for the kissing to start back up.
"You should be afraid of me," he began, feeling the goodbye in his throat, "because I killed a man with my bare hands. I did hard time. I am not a good man."
Her body went ramrod straight. He let go of her and took a step back. Her eyes were wide-open with shock, her mouth stuck in a silent scream.
Yeah. His work here was done.
He turned and began to run. Not away from her—not because he was afraid of her, damn it all. Because that was the best way to keep her safe. To stay the hell away from her.
"Nobody," she called out after him.
He didn't stop.

Immigrants are almost twice as likely to start businesses in the United States as native-born Americans, with many of these firms creating large numbers of jobs. This trend is nothing new. Going back more than a century, immigrants have been consistently more entrepreneurial. The American Dream has always been a beacon of hope for people around the world, and that is acutely true with immigrants who come here to start and grow companies.
Immigrant founders from top venture-backed firms have created an estimated average of 150 jobs per company. Just in the engineering and high-tech sectors, immigrant-founded firms employed some 560,000 workers and generated $63 billion in sales in 2012. Despite these successes, it remains difficult for immigrants to bring their entrepreneurial ideas to reality in America. Legal barriers to immigrant entrepreneurship result in lost jobs, lost innovation, and lost growth in the United States.
Even though Congress has not yet passed immigration reform, there is no shortage of policy ideas at the federal, state, and even local level for how to capture the economic benefits and growth that come from entrepreneurial immigrants.
Startup Visa
One approach to attract immigrant entrepreneurs is a startup visa that authorizes non-citizens to start and operate a business in the host country. Such visas often require the visa holder to meet certain benchmarks related to investment, revenue, or job creation. The United States does not currently have such a visa for entrepreneurs.
A Sample of Startup Visa Requirements Around the World
Foreign Students as Entrepreneurs
In 2013, more than half a million foreign students were granted visas to study at American universities. The Curricular Practical Training (CPT) and Optional Practical Training (OPT) programs administered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) allow foreign students and recent graduates to work in fields related to the student's course of study while pursuing a degree and for as long as twenty-nine months after graduation.
Administrative Action on Immigration
On November 20, 2014, President Barack Obama directed DHS to make administrative changes to the EB-2 and other skilled visa programs so that more immigrants can pursue entrepreneurship in the United States. The White House Council of Economic Advisers estimates that the following changes will increase the number of foreign entrepreneurs by at least 33,000.
Global Entrepreneurs in Residence
In 2014, Massachusetts created a pilot program whereby venture development centers affiliated with University of Massachusetts schools employ "resident entrepreneurs" on an H-1B visa. Although federal law limits the number of these visas that can be dispersed yearly, non-profit entities, like universities, are exempt from the cap.
State-Based Work Visas
The creation of state-based work visas would give states a say in how visas are allotted, allowing states to match the needs of their regional economy with skilled workers.
Recognition of Foreign Degrees
Nearly one-third of immigrants have a college degree or higher. Yet, when applying for licenses or other credentials, immigrants often face the challenge of applying their academic achievements earned abroad to satisfy domestic requirements, contributing to one-in-five highly skilled immigrants being underutilized. Four governor-appointed commissions each identified foreign degree recognition as a challenge.

Located on the ground floor of the Hotel Ala, in Campo Santa Maria del Giglio, it is embellished with wooden external decorations of the early of 20th Century, coming originally from La Fenice Theatre in Venice.
What makes it unique is the magnetic figure of the Russian countess Maria Tarnowska, from which it takes its name, instigator of the heinous crime that in the early 1900s was committed just inside the ancient Maurogonato Palace, today Hotel Ala, to the detriment of one of her many lovers.
The trial that followed had resonance and notorious throughout Europe and we are proud that the story of Maria Tarnowska has made us members of the "Historical Places of Italy", Cultural Association under the patronage of the Ministry of Heritage and Culture.
Admiring the historical tracks and vintage finds that reconstruct this love affair and the countless works of art that are exhibited in rotation, you can enjoy tasting a selection of the best international products. From the variety of distillates to AIBES cocktails, from the most famous vodka such as Absolut, Wyborowa, 42 Below, SKYY, Moskovskaja, Keglevich, Smirnoff, Greygoose, Russian Standard to our spectacular Italian wines.
TARNOWSKA'S also provides our guests with special art exhibitions and live music during the evenings.

- "You will belong to me, I want you…"
- "When I am free".
– "Now!" His hands brush her breast. "You made love to Naumow in the cemetery".
– "How do you know?".
– "He admitted it. He will admit whatever I want!".
Between graves, crowns, stones and trees they scramble around the cemetery to reach the gondola that is waiting for them.
In front of the Palazzo Maurogonato – now the Hotel Ala – inside which Kamarowsky was killed, a banner was flown with a skull and the words: TARNOWSKA to the gallows!
"I may be pregnant, but you will never know whether it's your baby I'm expecting". She was consumed by the irresistible desire to drive him into a rage. "I'll defame you and make a fool of you".
Maria was subsequently convinced by a Roman doctor to give up morphine by sniffing cocaine, as the effect was the same and the method of using is easy and harmless.
…one morning Naumow took her a basket of flowers, put it by the bed and took off the tissue paper. Under the flowers there was a dog lash with which he begged her to beat him…
Maria would like to have shouted out that Naumow was lying, but knew that wasn't exactly the case; Naumow was simply ignoring the truth. He wasn't beaten because of Maria's cruelty, but because it was he who implored her to do it.
She would have been cruel if she hadn't satisfied him. She beat him as a reward, not to cause him pain, because both drew pleasure from it, he and she.The psychiatrists: an illness!
And Prilukov: – " She called me her mugik". Maria thought: once only, in a fit of anger, did I say that.
It was subsequently he who wanted to be called by this abusive term, hundreds of times:
– "What I am?"
– "A mugik".
That word, full of contempt, always excited him. Prilukov was excited by hearing words, Naumow by beatings.

A weed is defined as, "a plant that is not valued where it is growing and is usually of vigorous growth, especially: one that tends to overgrow or choke out more desirable plants" (Merriam-Webster).
A noxious weed is defined by Montana Law (MCA 7-22-2101) as, "any exotic plant species established or that may be introduced in the state that may render land unfit for agriculture, forestry, livestock, wildlife, or other beneficial uses or that may harm native plant communities." A noxious weed is any unwanted non-native plant with potential impact serious to the extent that it has been declared by the state of Montana that landowners must enter into an approved management program to keep it from spreading.
A weed gains 'noxious' status through rule making authority by the Montana Department of Agriculture, as a district noxious weed by a county weed board and/or following public notice of intent and a public hearing regarding the status of a weed. If a weed is designated as a statewide noxious weed by rule of the Department of Agriculture, that weed must be considered noxious in every county of the state.
State designated noxious weeds are categorized into five different levels or Priorities. These levels are classified as priorities 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B and 3. This ranking system is based on the management techniques used to control the species as well as their presence and population density. In Montana, there is only one species of noxious weed listed under Priority 1A, and currently this plant, Yellowstar thistle is not present in the state. Under each Priority listing there is a brief description of what is to be done if the species listed under that Priority is found. Also listed under each Priority heading are the species inlcuding their scientific name. Montana is a large state. In addition to state-listed noxious weeds, it is a good idea to learn about what noxious weeds are listed in your county, how to identify these species, and what actions you can take to stop their spread.
Over the past 150 years, both the rate of introduction and spread of noxious weeds have increased significantly. This change is due to an increase in human travel, expanding commerce through trade, and a lack of knowledge of how weeds are spread. By becoming educated about noxious weeds, you're doing your part to help stop their spread and protect the environment.
If noxious weeds are left uncontrolled, the Montana that we enjoy today will look much different for future generations. Do your part, become educated and help stop the spread of noxious weeds.

Russo's 2013 SFAI exhibit, cavities and clumps, is reviewed in ArtNews.
60 feet length x 18 feet height x 12 feet width
(Photo: Martha Russo)
Russo speaks about the work:
"Through the abject, the elegant, the tenuous, and the abundant, within the cavity of a single space or the accretion of clumps of forms, Martha Russo creates provocative, contemplative spaces. The work speaks, psychologically and physically, about the interior of the body and the space that surrounds the body. The exhibition consists of sculptures and installations from 1999 to present including a collaborative work with Katie Caron and another with Elizabeth and Roberta Faulhaber. The art brings into question ideas about contested space and springs from the worlds of cellular biology and organ anatomy, cross-pollinated with underwater seascapes and domestic environments. The works also respond and bring attention to the elegant and light-rich architectural spaces, designed by Ricardo Legorreta, inside and outside the building. The underlying premise of the show is to intersect abstracted sculptural forms with architectural space to hold one in a wordless world in hopes of creating a place to wander and to wonder."

Related: 25 Things You Probably Don't Know About The London Underground
Hollywood execs are often typified as soulless, money-grabbing demons with a sole interest in draining our pockets and laughing directly at us while doing it. While we're sure that this isn't the case we're certainly not doing to be disproving that with this list.
Aside from all of the sequels you do know about but wish you didn't (Phantom Menace for one), there are another 30 that didn't even make it to your 5th choice at Blockbuster.
We're here to dig them up and hopefully embarrass a few of the people involved on the way.
The Rage: Carrie 2
Year: 1999
Did You Know? Original lead Sissy Spacek was offered a cameo, despite her character DYING in the first film, yet she wisely turned it down.
Lost Boys: The Tribe
Year: 2008
Follows:The Lost Boys
Did You Know? As well as Corey Feldman reprising his role, after the credits you can also see a very brief cameo appearance from Corey Haim. The eager-for-work Feldman also appears in the next film, Lost Boys: The Thirst.
A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia
Year: 1990
Follows:Lawrence Of Arabia
Did You Know? This was an 'unofficial' sequel that was made for TV a year after the original was re-released in cinemas. It stars Ralph Fiennes, who can file this away in his cupboard of films he must have done while drugged, alongside The Avengers, Maid In Manhattan and Nanny McPhee and The Big Bang.
Timecop 2: The Berlin Decision
Year: 2003
Did You Know? Decides to worryingly tackle the topic of Nazism as a character travels back to try and kill Hitler. Unsurprisingly this didn't pose any threat to Schindler's List in the holocaust movie stakes.
The Birds II: Land's End
Year: 1994
Follows:The Birds
Did You Know? The director hated the result so much that he chose to have his name removed from the credits. Also, confusingly, original star Tippi Hedren returned for the sequel yet played a different character. Point, anyone?
Carlito's Way: Rise To Power
Year: 2005
Follows:Carlito's Way
Did You Know? This was a prequel directed by the son of the original film's producer. He challenged the original's casting of Al Pacino and Sean Penn by enlisting, ermmm, P Diddy.
Splash, Too
Year: 1988
Did You Know? Todd Waring replaced Tom Hanks who decided not to return for the straight-to-TV sequel. Sadly it was the second time this had happened as he also replaced Hanks when he refused to come back for the TV spin-off of his movie Nothing In Common. Rumour is, when Hanks needs to go to the dentist, he forces Waring to go along instead.
Another Midnight Run
Year: 1994
Following:Midnight Run
Did You Know? Universal resurrected Robert De Niro's character for a series of sequels. After this one there was Midnight Runaround (get it?) and Midnight Run For Your Life (get it?!). Recently it was announced that the real De Niro would be back for a legitimate sequel with an actual budget.
I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer
Year: 2006
Follows:I Still Know What You Did Last Summer
Did You Know? Helped no doubt by the ridiculously nonsensical title, the film boasts a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It was rumoured to feature a cameo from Jennifer Love Hewitt but even she passed. That's when you know you're in trouble.
Beyond The Poseidon Adventure
Year: 1979
Follows:The Poseidon Adventure
Did You Know? Starring Michael Caine and Sally Field, this failed attempt to recreate the original's success was set to follow the survivors as they found themselves trapped in a tunnel while on their way to testify in Vienna. That premise was used years later for the Stallone flick Daylight instead.
Book Of Shadows: Blair Witch 2
Year: 2000
Follows:The Blair Witch Project
Did You Know? Made on the quick to cash in on the success of the first film, this sequel managed to rack up five Razzie nominations and one win for worst sequel or remake. The DVD and VHS releases were littered with subliminal messages which read out a message to viewers. Probably something like "You're an unparalleled idiot for renting this."
U.S. Marshals
Year: 1998
Follows:The Fugitive
Did You Know? Robert Downey Jr hated the film so much that he termed it "the worst action movie of all time" and said "I'd rather wake up in jail for a TB test than have to wake up another morning knowing I'm going to the set of U.S. Marshals."
American Psycho 2
Year: 2002
Follow:American Psycho
Did You Know? The film stars Mila Kunis as a student who is driven to murder after she kills Patrick Bateman. It also features William Shatner as a college professor and FBI agent. Neither of which are believable jobs for him.
Shock Treatment
Year: 1981
Follows:The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Did You Know? Although it was just released as a midnight movie on Halloween, the film was an even bigger flop than the original. Susan Sarandon was set to reprise her role but dropped out after a salary dispute. The dispute was probably that she wanted to get paid and they couldn't afford to pay her.
Dumb And Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd
Year: 2003
Follows:Dumb and Dumber
Did You Know? This prequel was originally set to be written by the creators of South Park but they changed their mind and returned the $1.5million they were paid. In one scene, the pair were standing at the corner of Stan St. and Oliver Ave, a reference to Laurel & Hardy. A cruel reminder of a much superior comedy duo.
Son Of The Mask
Year: 2005
Follows:The Mask
Did You Know? After the original, Nintendo Power magazine launched a competition to win a walk-on part in the proposed sequel yet this project was canned and the prize was redundant. Years later, this follow-up remains one of the worst reviewed films ever on IMDb.
Green Street 2: Stand Your Ground
Year: 2009
Follows:Green Street
Did You Know? The writer of the original panned this sequel as the worst representation of hooliganism and an English prison ever. Written by an American, the inmates wore orange jumpsuits and had their legs chained, both characteristics of a US prison.
Home Alone 4: Taking Back The House
Year: 2002
Follows:Home Alone 3
Did You Know? Despite taking place 12 years after the original, the character of Kevin is clearly stuck in a Simpsons-style time trap as he has only aged 1 year. Thankfully he isn't played by a clearly adult Macaulay Culkin.
2010: The Year We Make Contact
Follows: 2001: A Space Odyssey
Did You Know? Director Peter Hyams said that he wouldn't direct the sequel without Stanley Kubrick's blessing who "more or less said 'Sure. Go do it. I don't care.'" Not exactly enthusiastic....
Ace Ventura Jr: Pet Detective
Year: 2009
Follows:Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls
Did You Know? Both Jim Carrey and Courtney Cox decided not to come back (surprisingly) and Cox was replaced with Ann Cusack, John and Joan's depressingly less fortunate sister.
Look What Happened To Rosemary's Baby
Year: 1976
Follows:Rosemary's Baby
Did You Know? The plot follows Rosemary's son Adrian after he is adopted by the madam of a brothel and worries about not living up to Satan's expectations. Depressingly, it stars Ruth Gordon who gave an Oscar-winning performance in the original.
Return To Oz
Year: 1985
Follows:The Wizard Of Oz
Did You Know? Holds a place in the Guinness Book of World Records as the sequel made the longest time after the original, a massive 46 years. Turns out good things don't come to those who wait...
S. Darko
Year: 2009
Follows:Donnie Darko
Did You Know? Richard Kelly, who directed the original, stated that he had nothing to do with this follow-up. The film follows Donnie's younger sister, played by the same actress in both films.
The Sting II
Year: 1983
Follows:The Sting
Did You Know? The film follows the two characters from the first films yet changes their names slightly and some might argue pointlessly. While the first film garnered 7 Oscars, this sequel won nought.
Ripley's Game
Year: 2002
Follows:The Talented Mr. Ripley
Did You Know? Matt Damon was replaced by John Malkovich in this sequel which actually gained stronger reviews than the first. Ironically, Malkovich was originally going to direct the first film.
Wild Things 2
Year: 2004
Follows: Wild Things
Did You Know? Was followed by two more sequels, the most recent was imaginatively titled Wild Things: Foursome. This chapter came from the director of Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus and a film actually called Some Guy Who Kills People. Wonder what it's about...
Single White Female 2: The Psycho
Year: 2005
Follows:Single White Female
Did You Know? This follow-up regurgitates the EXACT SAME storyline but with no reference to the first. It also conveniently adds the subtitle "The Psycho", in case the subtle bloody knife on the poster leaves us in any doubt as to the film's content.
The Great Escape II: The Untold Story
Year: 1988
Follows:The Great Escape
Did You Know? Unlike the original, this TV movie was a work of complete fiction, which makes the title rather nonsensical. It's untold because there was no one to tell it...
Addams Family Reunion
Year: 1998
Follows:Addams Family Values
Did You Know? The perfectly cast Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston were replaced with the, ermmm, cheaper alternatives Tim Curry and Daryl Hannah. Thankfully though, the actor who played Lurch returned.
Roadhouse 2: Last Call
Year: 2006
Did You Know? Patrick Swayze was set to reprise his role in the sequel to Roadhouse but dropped out due to creative differences so his character's son takes the lead. Hmmm, it feels wrong putting the word 'creative' so close to 'sequel to Roadhouse'.

On which foreign markets are Polish brands given the greatest opportunities? How can we support export and how important is economic diplomacy? These are some of the topics to be raised during the debate organised as part of the Polska 2041 project, to which Mirosław Bendzera, CEO of FAMUR SA, was invited. The meeting scheduled for 11 January will be broadcast live on the Interia website and YouTube.
The Polska 2041 project was initiated by Interia in 2016. The authors of the project emphasise that the most important issues related to the economic development of the country within the next quarter of the century will be brought up during a series of interviews and debates, to which personalities from the world of business, science and politics are invited.
The discussion entitled "Polish brand on foreign markets: export and investments" will be organised as part of this campaign on 11 January at 10:00 a.m. (watch the broadcast). The representatives of PKO BP and export companies, including FAMUR SA, will participate in this meeting.
– A lot of Polish companies, not only FAMUR, offer high quality products and unique know-how based on many years of experience. As a result, we can effectively compete on global markets and consistently strengthen the position of the 'Made in Poland' brand. In the case of our company, we are gradually increasing the share of exports in our sales revenues, which has now exceeded 40%. However, we would like to increase it to 50% in the next few years. The year 2018 has already given us new opportunities due to the conclusion of an important contract on the Russian market. We hope that this is just the beginning and the next months will bring more such significant orders. Coal is still one of the most important energy sources in the world – says Mirosław Bendzera.
For several years, the FAMUR Group has been consistently implementing the Go Global international expansion strategy. The last acquisition made by the company, i.e. the merger of the KOPEX Group, will help to intensity such activities. The integration of the resources of both entities, which aims at increasing the range and efficiency of operations, is planned for the first six months of this year.

Hi Mendy! Word has it that you and the Bomb Squad will be at the Cruizin For Life car show/burnout contest in Santa Maria, CA on Sep. 26-27. I want to start spreading the word around about this great charitable event but didn't want to say anything that I shouldn't. We'll be there with our A/GS '57 Chevy as we have been for the last few years. Hope to see you then.

Have you heard the name of Grapevine High School Baseball player Chris Gavora? On Feb. 22, 2007 Chris Gavora and his Grapevine High School teammates were warming up for their opening game. Chris was pitching to a teammate when a line drive passed through openings in 2 cages and struck him in the head. Chris was rushed to the hospital where he underwent surgery but unfortunetly was unable to survive his injury. He died just two days later on Saturday Feb. 25, 2007. It has been a little over five years since this tragic accident happened and yet in our community of Grapevine, TX we hear this story over and over again as each new baseball season approaches.
The accident hurt every coach and player to the core, but what happened in the next few days couldn't take the pain away but eased it more than anyone could have imagined. Just a week after Chris had turned 17 he was ready to get his license. He saw the option to donate his organs and didn't think twice about it. His mother had told him that they should go home and talk to his dad about it but Chris said, "I know what it means, and I'm going to do it." That decision saved the lives of six people, Brad Walker was on the verge of death from suffering with Cystic Fibrosis, he got Chris' lungs. A 10-year-old boy in Arkansas got Chris' heart. A 27-year-old male software engineer got his liver. A 54-year-old diabetic and father of four got Chris' pancreas. A 14-year-old boy got one of Chris' kidneys. A 29-year-old single mother got the other and attends nursing school.
Chris loved movies and reciting quotes from them. He loved music and playing the guitar, and was a New York Yankees fan. He liked going to the mall and playing video games. He shared a car with his twin sister, Catherine. And he loved baseball, which he'd played since he was 4.
For the 5th anniversary of Chris' death we wanted to do something special for the Chris Gavora Memorial Scholarship Fund and the baseball teams of local rivals Grapevine High School Mustangs and the Panthers of Colleyville Heritage High School.
GHS and CHHS have two games they play against each other this season. The first game is on Thursday March 17, 2011 at Grapevine High School. The second game is on Friday April 8th, 2011 at Colleyville Heritage. As a Corporate Sponsor for the Education Foundation we will donate $1 for every new fan we gain to our Classic Chevy Facebook Page to the Education Foundation and those proceeds will be distributed to the Chris Gavora Memorial Scholarship Fund.
The second part of this contest goes like this….. It's the CHHS VS GHS Baseball Battle! Come to our Facebook Page and write on our wall which school you support. You don't have to be a student. You can be a parent, a teacher, a resident of Colleyville or Grapevine, or anyone. The contest will end on Thursday April 7, 2011 and the school that has the most support on our fan page wins the Baseball Battle! That winning team will be rewarded. On April 8 when CHHS and GHS hit the field it won't matter who wins the game what will matter is how many runs are scored because the winner of the Baseball Battle on Facebook will get $25 per run scored to their teams booster club. So for instance if CHHS wins the Baseball Battle on Facebook but GHS wins the game 10-8 well CHHS will get a check from Classic Chevrolet through the Education Foundation for $450! The winner of the game will also get a special gift to be determined later. So as you can see both CHHS and GHS will come out as winners!! Let us know if you have any questions.
Don't forget to visit our Fan Page and become a fan today. We'll donate $1 per fan to the Chris Gavora Memorial Scholarship Fund. While you're visiting don't forget to write on our wall which school you support! Contest runs 3/16/2011 – 4/7/2011.

On the morning of Sunday, May 18th, 2014, over 60 World War II Veterans from the New England Area, each accompanied by a guardian, arrived at Baltimore-Washington International Airport, and were greeted with a roaring applause from active military, friends, family and total strangers as they traveled from the airport terminal to buses waiting to take them to Washington D.C. for the day by way of the Honor Flight New England program. The program has been fully sponsored the last three trips by MetaVR. WATD was lucky enough to join the veterans for the day.
Led by a police escort, three coach buses full of WWII veterans were now on their way to Washington for the day!
The first stop was the National World War II Memorial, where the veterans were able to get out and explore the grounds for over an hour.
(Click below to listen to an interview with Frank about his military experiences, and thoughts on the Honor Flight Program)
Next, they were back on the road and headed to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers in Arlington Nation Cemetery.
Up next was the Korean War Veterans Memorial, and the Vietnam War Memorial.
(Click below to listen to an interview with Herbert about his military experiences, and thoughts on the Honor Flight Program)
Back on the road; they were now headed to the last D.C. stop of the day, the Air Force Memorial.
(Click below to listen to an interview with Robert about his military experiences, and thoughts on the Honor Flight Program)
On their way back from D.C., every veteran opened their own mail package full of letters from friends and family, arranged by the Honor Flight Program.
It was now around 6 p.m., and the veterans were enjoying a buffet dinner at a local American Legion Hall just outside Baltimore, before returning to the airport.
While waiting for their plane home at BWI airport on Sunday night, veterans were given pictures of themselves from when they were in the military, and sang and danced to music of their era.
Honor Flight New England has delivered more than 1,000 veterans in over a dozen trips to D.C. since they were founded in 2009.
To find out more about Honor Flight New England, visit www.honorflightnewengland.org or find them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/HonorFlightNewEngland
Click below listen to the radio feature on Honor Flight New England, as presented on the Veterans' Voice radio show on WATD, which airs every Wednesday night at 7:30-8:30 p.m.
It includes a call-in from Honor Flight New England Founder Joe Byron, and in-studio discussion from Francisco Urena, Commissioner of Veterans Services for the City of Boston.

The House began discussion Wednesday on the ENFORCE Act, H.R. 4138, aimed to require compliance with the laws as they are written by the Executive Branch. The sponsor of this legislation is South Carolina Republican Trey Gowdy.
The bill would allow the House or Senate to authorize legal action to be taken against the administration for failure to faithfully enforce the laws passed by Congress in their entirety.
Another bill, The Faithful Execution of the Law Act, H.R. 3973, would require agencies to report to Congress when laws aren't enforced.

Each week the WHM gang force themselves to watch bad movies that were better left forgotten to fuel off-the-wall tangents, inane impressions and unabashed comedic silliness. This is a comedy podcast for movie lovers that can't help but relish pure trash.
On the final WHM Mail Bag of the season, the gang reads some letters about dating obnoxious Transformers fans, using the wrong film for a Hangover Movie, fathers mistakenly thinking their kids are perverts at the movies, getting grounded for listening to WHM, and weirdos pleasuring themselves in South Carolina second-run theaters! PLUS: Edward Snowden fights the good fight against obscene video store late fees!
The Mail Bag is taking the rest of the summer off, so for September, we want to read your school-related letters on the air! Bad film-themed college parties? Common room movie nights gone wrong? Lazy teachers showing you Fern Gully? We want to hear about it! Write into the Mail Bag: email@example.com!

I. Uncut guitar strings tremble like waves of sugar cane in August heat. Cocked hats and unfettered hips attain the same angle.
II. Lit cigarettes in the storm shelter. Smoke spinning in spider threats across the rafters, tangling addictive personalities in sickly brown filters and interlocked fingers.
III. Passerby don't know – it's just the beginning. Lungs receiving their first taste of tar, the chemical filth sticking to my sinuses and sending blood to bang its fists on the boards behind my eyes.
IV. From wool hats in summer to dancing, dangling cigs, perched seductively where lips converge. Warmed from the inside out, lighters darken the ends of noses as we seek out the last drag. Softly coated in melting lipstick, sweat clings to the tips of eyelashes.
V. The heat has overcome us.

Can Netflix Pull Off an On-Demand Late Night Show?
Netflix is teaming up with late-night veteran Chelsea Handler for an on-demand show to debut in 2016. But will the late-night format translate online? Horizon Media research director Brad Adgate joins the News Hub with Sara Murray. Photo: Getty
