A 78th minute try from Tevita Kuridrani saw the Brumbies book their spot in the Super Rugby final thanks to a 26-23 win over the Bulls.
A 78th minute try from Tevita Kuridrani saw the Brumbies book their spot in the Super Rugby final thanks to a 26-23 win over the Bulls.
In what was a tense encounter that was anyone's for the taking throughout, it was the hosts who blinked first as they allowed a late lead to slip through their fingertips.
Early on it appeared that the match would be anything but tight, with the Brumbies potentially about to unleash a blitzkrieg the likes of the one that saw the Sharks stunned in Durban earlier in the year.
The dominance began from a clever kick-off from which Akona Ndungane was given little room to clear as he collected up against the touchline – it was a tactic that would bear fruit on more than one occasion.
After a few phases of attack, Francois Hougaard infringed at the ruck and Christian Leali'ifano opened the scoring with a three-pointer.
The visitors extended their lead at the end of the first quarter after great work from Henry Speight. The wing attacked the Bulls line at pace, bursting past defenders and brushing off the challenge of Bjorn Basson with a great hand-off before he off-loaded behind his back to Jesse Mogg who dived over in the corner. Leali'ifano added the extras.
Speight would soon have a taste of his own medicine though as JJ Engelbrecht rounded off a passage of patient – yet slightly scrappy – build-up as he put out the fend on Speight and crashed over for the Bulls' first points.
Steyn and Leali'ifano proceeded to exchange penalties as the two teams went into the break with the Brumbies holding a 16-11 lead.
It was the Bulls who started strongest in the second period and they were nearly rewarded for their efforts with a try from Grant Hattingh. The second rower looked set to round off a period of sustained pressure as he burst for the line, but the combination of a superb tackle from George Smith and some smart hands from Nic White saw him held up.
The Bulls would add three points nonetheless and a battle of the boots proceeded with the Bulls taking a 20-19 lead into the final quarter and with the momentum with the hosts.
The Brumbies looked to edge their way back into proceedings and their charge was led by Smith who – as he had been throughout the match – claimed some key steals and made big tackles. However, both sides had chances inside their opposition 22 that they weren't able to take advantage of.
The Bulls will feel the worst on this score as Dewald Potgieter on three occasions decided against the chance for an easy three points and instead went for the line which didn't produce points. The strategy seemed strange and was made a mockery of when Steyn then looked for a drop goal soon after.
While points weren't forthcoming the Bulls did achieve their goal of remaining in the Brumbies half and with three points on offering for the fourth time, Steyn was given instructions to kick for posts after an infringement at scrum time and he made no mistake.
The penalty was a sign of how the Bulls had fought their way back into the game, with the scrums an area of supreme dominance for the Brumbies early on, but that dominance then swung in favour of the hosts.
The Brumbies still had time to make the decisive move and they didn't disappoint.
With less than two minutes on the clock Matt Toomua broke down the near touchline before passing inside to Tevita Kuridrani who dived over to put the men from Canberra ahead once more. Leali'ifano added the extras to ensure a penalty or drop would not be enough for the Bulls to win it.
With the restart cleanly taken, the hooter sounded like sweet music to the Brumbies as Leali'ifano hammered the ball into touch and in doing so sent his side into the final.
The scorers:
For Bulls:
Tries: Engelbrecht
Pen: Steyn 6

Try: Mogg, Kuridrani
Con: Leali'ifano 2

- Protection:

- Fit:

Comments: I have used this product for a few months now and it does fit well, feels great and is very comfortable.
Wish it had a belt though. The protection level is the only problem, it is virtually non-existent. The padding is so thin and flexible
that it provides very little protection and the tail pad will not protect the wearer at all, not even from the slightest fall. It does work
well like a jock short and the hip pads are adequate. If you are looking for something with significant padding, I would look
elsewhere. Other than the padding, this product is very good.
From: DM

The CCM U+ Crazy Light hockey stick is one of the lightest hockey sticks on the market. Upon picking up a U+ CL you instantly see why CCM has called this stick the Crazy Light.
CCM has constructed the U+ Crazy Light out of multiple layers of high-grade carbon fiber to reduce weight and maintain performance and durability. What sets this stick apart from others on the market is how CCM has been able to construct a stick at this weight and without compromising the performance. The extremely lightweight feel offers better puck feel and balance, quicker reaction time, faster swing speed, and hopefully more pucks in the back of the net.
CCM has redesigned the blade of the Crazy Light stick to offer increased feel and durability. Two vertical and parallel carbon bridges run the length of the blade, enhancing the sweet spot from the heel all the way to the toe for the most forgiving blade in hockey.

- Weight: 431 grams (85 flex, weight varies slightly with curves)
- Construction:

- 360° Inter-laced full woven wrap - Making the crazy light one of the most durable sticks in this weight category

- Length: 61" (85 and 100 flex), 59" (75 flex)
- Weight: 431 grams -85 flex- (weight varies slightly depending on curve)
Comments: This is the second suit CCM Crazy Light I have. As for the weight, no stick to exceed it. Handling the puck is amazing. I highly recommend it.
From: Reinaldo
Comments: I didn't really know how much a stick can make a difference until I purchased the CCM U+ Crazy Light Grip Hockey Stick. First was the incredible lightweight feel of the stick which helped with puck handling and control. I chose the Thornton curve which also gave me the ability to shoot with greater velocity on snap shots and wrist shots. The blade of the stick seems to be a bit larger than my previous stick which helps with passing and receiving passes. The price on this stick made it more affordable than some of the other higher end and top of the line sticks. I certainly recommed this stick for the avid and more than avid player. I think you will see improvements in your ability to handle and shoot the puck particularly if you have been using a more intermediate model stick.
From: Bill, Virginia Beach, VA
Comments: This is a great stick hands down. One of my 3 favorite sticks that always travels with me. Stickhandling is great with the rounded shaft and very lightweight, and wristers and snaps really pop off this stick. Some suggest that they aren't durable, but I have yet to experience any issues during play. Overall, a great stick, great feel, accurate and hard shots. Highly recommend.
From: Jamie, MD

Skip to comments.Netanyahu On US Embassy Attacks: 'You Want These Fanatics To Have Nuclear Weapons?'
Posted on 09/16/2012 5:00:58 AM PDT by lowbridge
In an interview with Meet The Press set to air Sunday, Netanyahu warned American lawmakers that Iran's leaders, like the protesters, are guided by an "unbelievable fanaticism."
"They put their zealotry above their survival," Netanyahu told MTP host David Gregory. "It's the same fanaticism that you see storming your embassies today. You want these fanatics to have nuclear weapons?"
(Excerpt) Read more at businessinsider.com ...
"It's dethspiccable!"
I wouldn't turn my back on one with a pea shooter.
I wouldn't turn my back on one with a pea shooter.
General Kimsey: I wouldn't trust them with a potato gun.
or a salad shooter
Netanyahu is as stupid as neocons and Zero just like all current mainstream Israel's politicians. A bitter disgrace to great leaders who brought once proud nation at the time. Iran is not as urgent problem as Muzzie Brois and Al-Qaeda but he is clueless on how to deal with a really big problem so he is looking for a solid target as he is a frustrating lab rat.
In reality Iranese regime and Al-Qaeda attacking America in ME are absolute antagonistic powers.
Wise leaders has to look for solutions to play them against each other.
Mooseslum Bros = Iran
Sheesh, what a maroon!
Dear Mitt Romney: PM Netanyahu just handed you a great campaign slogan "You want these fanatics to have nuclear weapons"
The current Kenyan Muslim president is clueless
Netanyahu has the patience of Job. What a hellish place to be placed in- dealing with Obama and the mullahs at the same time.
and walk them though fields of landmines to clear it when they were at war with Iraq...
Not the sharpest tool in the box...are you ?
Since he's so stupid, why don't you tell us how to deal with it genius.
Thanks for filling us in. We were all so deluded. So, we should wait until Iran has a nuclear weapon and then get them to nuke Egypt? Is that your cunning plan? You are brilliant.
A resounding "YES, It's only fair" from BO
Here's the plan, see: We make a video and put it on YouTube, where Morsi is saying in Arab-talk that Ahmadinejad is a blow-hard faggot and ain't got the guts to nuke Israel and we make another where, see, Ahmadinejad, he says in Iranese that Morsi used to do it his mother and that when his father caught them at he, he made him do it with his brothers. We got to find out his brothers names in Iranese, first, though. Then Ahmadinejad, he says that he don't need to nuke Israel because after the election, once he gets all the Jews to vote for him and everything, that Obama will nuke Israel for them. And then Morsi says that Ahmadinejad really just wants to do it with Israeli boys.
I mean, like, what could go wrong?
Who does Al-Qaeda hate more: Iran or Israel?
If you are #1 on the Destroyed by Nukes List, do you care who is #5?
That's the type of idiots that cause war.
Thinking that somehow a lunatic can be reasoned with simply encourages the lunatic.
Anyone that's ever been in a bar fight with some loudmouth knows that.
Unfortunately, Netanyahu doesn't have your "cunning" or "gift" for long term geopolitical strategy. [/s] He has to worry about keeping his country from potentially getting nuked by messianic Islamist religious fanatics. And he doesn't even have the luxury of time anymore, so he can't wait for these sanctions or other half-baked, ineffectual schemes other to start showing results.
BTW Cunning Fish....your name wouldn't be Hilary Clinton, would it?
1—Nuke 'em 'till they glow in the dark.
2—Pi$$ on the ashes.
Works for me—or did Barry get rid of all the nukes yet?
Do you really think Iran will have a bomb in a couple of years? I think it won't and even if it will (hypotethically) the West and Israel won't be a primary target.
The truth is Israel has the means to stop Iran's nuclear program without war. Just like US government had the ,means to kill OBL without this bitter invasion to Crapistan.
But for some reason political reasons are taking an upper hand over common sense.
The reality is Al-Qaeda building a superpower nation in North Africa and Middle East. It will be nuclear capable for sure and leaded by nutjobs making Iran's mullahs look like a bunch of hippies.
And not only I can't see if everyone in positions of power has a plan to solve it. They are either in denial and supporting this crap.
To the extent your comment is decipherable, I believe it is foolish.
Netanyahu is certainly not stupid; he is aware that Iranian nuclear weapons pose an existential threat to Israel(especially given their oft-expressed desire to annihilate Israel), and a general, but serious, threat to Europe and the USA. Of course, he does not want a war with Iran or he already would have done so. Also, I assume considerable doubt exists in the mind of the IDF that it can be successful without US support or without using tactical nukes.
I follow, I think, your comment about Iran and Al Qaeda being antagonistic to one another, i.e., Shia v Sunni. But have you ever heard the truism that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend." Well, why do you think it's a truism?
I'll tell you why: because it's true.
It would only take a few well-placed nukes in Israel to destroy it.
Further, Israel has a right to preemptive action under the UN Charter. In my view, the magnitude of Iran's provocation is close to justifying such action.
Like any thoughtful person, I don't want another war, especially one in which the USA will certainly be dragged into fighting.
I am sick of wars in the ME, and viscerally, I would like to let the entire Arab and Persian dung pile enjoy the 7th century lifestyle they embrace.
However, if I had any say so in the matter, I would never let Israel face Iranian nukes.
Have you ever heard the expression "Never Again?"
I just saw this morning that Fox is recognizing that's it's Rosh Hashanah, surely that's another reason to riot.
>>>BTW Cunning Fish....your name wouldnt be Hilary Clinton, would it?>>>>>
I don't want to make it personal but it sounds like Hillary is you.
She could be happy to see another "Arab spring" in Iran to make sure if her Muzzie Bros pals are to take over this nuke program.
I'm not a friend of Iran and I think it has to be destroyed but it is as stupid to deal with a problem right now as starting to get rid of rodents at the time your house is on fire.
Where is Netanyahu's statement on Al-Qaeda??
From your comments it's obvious you couldn't think your way out of a room with one door.
Go back to your bong and let the adults deal with this.
Have you been a dumb ass your whole life? Is English your second or third language? Can you put a coherent statement together? FReepers want to know.
Brilliant!!!! Wishful thinking is so much easier than facing reality.
Yes. I do...
Do you really think we have the "room" to be wrong?
Do you have any clue to the geopolitical implications of a nuclear Iran...?
OK people, I don't want to be againts a mainstream.
Let the history judge it, Ok?;)
OK people, I don't want to be againts a mainstream.
Let the history judge it, Ok?;)
"a mainstream"? Your use of grammar in this and previous posts sounds like you aren't of an English speaking background. Just what is your nationality?
Mr. Netanyahu is not being patient. He is doing his best to get the US to attack, because he wants us to fight his battles for him. Like any other country (except ours), he puts the interests of Israel above all else. Perhaps it is time we start thinking of what is best for the US.
I've said it before: I'd pay good money, which I don't even have, for the unrestricted loan of the Israeli football for 5 minutes. Or 10 minutes to even take care of the odious European irritation.
Yes, you're right. A destroyed Israel and complete unchecked Islamic hegemony over the entire middle east is what would be best for the U.S.
Lol. It's just possible fish is originally of the Russian school of war, and they have a more direct approach than diplomatic pussyfooting. Also a more realistic view of thermonuclear war.
Dropped on your head as a child?
Ah, so that's how things look from your vantage point living in your mommy and daddy's basement, huh?
Good thing for you they aren't charging you rent.
Oh, nonsense! Israel is the strongest country in the Middle East and has several nukes. It can defend itself. Islam rules the Middle East now, but they can't even stop fighting each other, so I don't see one country, tribe, or sect ruling the entire region. We need to increase our own energy supplies and let the ME oil producing countries wither on the vine.
That's not a realistic view.
You do know that's what would happen if ME oil was cut off from the rest of the world don't you?
LOL! My thoughts too when I read what "cunning" fish had to say. However - even though not very sharp, he is in fact a tool...
Well, yes, so why would we want an attack on Iran that would provoke them into trying to close the Straits of Hormuz? Won't an attack on Iran send the price of oil through the roof?
Why is everyone so keen on an action that will only cause disaster? Unless Iran is utterly obliterated, it will resume its quest to get a nuke. If people are so keen on starting another war, at least make this one effective, which won't happen. I still say this is insane.
No it isn't. But the fact is, Iran would have nukes already if not for Russia.
Much monkey biz in the iranian nuke program and our response to it, and there'll be much more. I'd like to exterminate Iran to the last thing moving, but I'm bloodyminded.

By PHIL FAUVERStaff writer
Approximately 5 p.m. on the evening of July 12, the intersection near the Orangeville Welcome Park was flooded from a canal break and a flash flood North of Orangeville.
For the most part this flood followed a normal flow channel through back yards in the Orangeville subdivision on the North side of Cottonwood Creek. The flood started when the Cottonwood Creek Irrigation Company canal over flowed, caused by an excess amount of water draining off of property North of the canal. The two breaks in the canal were located about 100 yards North of the Orangeville Water Tower.
The home of Richard Maxwell, 435 North Canyon View, Orangeville and others received flood damage. Maxwell standing in front of his shop said his home and shop were flooded. The flood went in through a basement window. In the shop Maxwell said the flood had damaged a deep freeze, a washer, a dryer, two generators, a pressure washer, golf clubs, numerous boxes of storage, Christmas decorations and a stereo. The water that flooded his property was about 8-10 inches high as can be seen on the exterior shop wall.
As the flood passed through these yards it knocked over fences. In some places potato plants were washed out and some corn plants washed out.
By 9 a.m. the next morning the Cottonwood Creek Irrigation Company had a backhoe on the job repairing one of the canal breaks. The irrigation company had shut down the flow of water in the canal, the evening before.
Laurel and Steve Miner were also impacted by the flooding. The flood flowed through their back yard as well as their front yard. It took out their garden. There was a berm but the water flowed over it flooding their yard. Laurel said the water made a lot of noise as it came through her yard. She was at home at the time and her husband arrived home from work shortly after the initial flood event. The flood flowed through the subdivision and onto the intersection. The homes surrounding the intersection were all affected by the flooding.
Emery County Sheriff's Office responded to the scene as well as the fire departments from the cities. They worked to get sand bags in place to avoid more flood damage to the area. Severe thunderstorms overloaded the canal causing the breaks.

Italy blew a huge chance to move off the bottom of the Six Nations table on Saturday as they fell 24-16 to Wales at the Stadio Flaminio.
Italy blew a massive chance to move off the bottom of the Six Nations table on Saturday as they fell 24-16 to Wales.
Ten points were missed from the tee by wing Mirco Bergamasco and replacement fly-half Luciano Orquera in a result that will hurt Italy.
Wales did not help themselves in the opening stages when, after Stephen Jones had opened the scoring, they gifted the Azzurri a try on five minutes. The Welsh were looking to adopt their expansive game right from the off and it was that that cost them when a stray pass from lock Bradley Davies was swooped upon by centre Gonzalo Canale. His chip and chase eventually saw him regather to send the Stadio Flaminio into raptures. Bergamasco missed the extras.
A response was needed in order to quieten the Italy support. And so it came as the visitors marched downfield and crossed wide on the left courtesy of Scarlets wing Morgan Stoddart, who was awarded the try after a long wait for the TMO.
The match conditions were helping the game no end and it didn't take long for the third five-pointer to arrive, which was arguably the pick of the bunch in Rome. From a breakout in midfield, full-back Lee Byrne hit a magnificent angle – similar to the one he did in Paris a few years back – and James Hook had the simple task of drawing the last man and sending over Sam Warburton. Stephen Jones sent over the simple conversion and the score was up to 15-8 to Wales on fourteen minutes.
But despite their seven-point cushion, one had the feeling that the lead was unlikely to grow dramatically. Italy were matching their visitors play by play and in fact cut the arrears ten minutes later when a backtracking Stoddart was blown for not releasing the ball.
Then came a moment that full-back Luke McLean might lose sleep over tonight as his somewhat overambitious penalty touch-finder did not make its target, with that ultimately costing the hosts six points via the boot of Jones that sent them in 21-11.
Wales' form dipped somewhat in the second period as they enjoyed little territory and/or possession. However for all the Azzurri's dominance and hunger, it was a constant lack of cutting edge that's required to win such internationals that will annoy Nick Mallett the most.
Number eight Sergio Parisse did show real strength to cross on the left wing – shrugging off pivot Jones to ground and reduce the gap to just five points – to continue the momentum.
But for all their ball and will to upset Warren Gatland's charges, it was fitting that a Hook drop-goal took the game beyond doubt. A lesson for Italy that they need to take their chances and kick their goals, but one that needs to be absorbed.
Man-of-the-match: He was a different class. Sergio Parisse.
Moment-of-the-match: Scrum-half and scrum-half, you wouldn't expect to witness such physicality. If you haven't seen it yet, try and find Mike Phillips' bump off Fabio Semenzato.

Tries: Canale, Parisse
Pen: Bergamasco 2

Tries: Stoddart, Warburton
Con: Jones
Pen: Jones 3

Ah, lambs, sometimes it seems like the gods of hockey listen to our prayers. There's this article in the Journal today whose headline reads "Lowe may pursue Hossa with Katz $$$". The article states that, according to "sources," "Edmonton Oilers general manager Kevin Lowe may be in pursuit of free-agent sniper Marian Hossa of the Atlanta Thrashers."
Apparently Hossa's agent, Ritch Winter, is a Katz fan. How in the heck Rich "Mr I made Ryan Smyth leave his home" Winter could even know Katz, much less be a fan, is a mystery to us. Nonetheless, I guess Katz has 2.6 billion reasons that penny grubbing douchebags like Winter, who are willing to do whatever it takes to get their 7% agent's commission, would kiss up to him.
The article goes on to say that Lowe can give it a shot as he has the dough, and that "maybe Lowe could put a package together, and he's got the Anaheim Ducks' first-round pick as part of the Chris Pronger trade."
Get this deal done! We have been praying to any god who would listen for this deal to get done.
Please Gods of Hockey! Please Buddha! Please Oprah Winfrey! Please Tom Cruise!
Trade Hossa to Edmonton and let the goals rain down!!!

I think Matheson had nothing better to write about so he started his own rumor mill
February 21 2008, 07:47PM
Please Lord Don Cherry! Please Ghost of Tim Horton!
The Oilers management is so stupid I bet they don't do anything
February 22 2008, 10:10PM
Why give up anything for Hossa now? Why give up young talent on a UFA... If he really likes katz that much then wait until the offseason and sign him in free agency and not lose our future, because we all know its going to cost a lot for Hossa especially with everyone starting to gun for him that are actually in a playoff race.
February 23 2008, 02:26PM
SickofHossa -
Where do you get off saying that the Oilers have a tendency to make trades out of desperation... they only SIGN players out of desperation, screwing their team up completely.

Good comment though

Skip to comments.Les Miserables: Film Review (Well-sung but bombastic screen version of the musical perennial)
Posted on 12/17/2012 9:31:42 AM PST by SeekAndFind
Anne Hathaway, Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe sing -- and wage a Sisyphean battle against musical diarrhea -- in Tom Hooper's adaptation of the stage sensation.
A gallery of stellar performers wages a Sisyphean battle against musical diarrhea and a laboriously repetitive visual approach in the big-screen version of the stage sensation Les Miserables. Victor Hugo's monumental 1862 novel about a decades-long manhunt, social inequality, family disruption, injustice and redemption started its musical life onstage in 1980 and has been around ever since, a history of success that bodes well for this lavish, star-laden film. But director Tom Hooper has turned the theatrical extravaganza into something that is far less about the rigors of existence in early 19th century France than it is about actors emoting mightily and singing their guts out. As the enduring success of this property has shown, there are large, emotionally susceptible segments of the population ready to swallow this sort of thing, but that doesn't mean it's good.
The first thing to know about this Les Miserables is that this creation of Claude-Michel Schonberg, Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel, is, with momentary exceptions, entirely sung, more like an opera than a traditional stage musical. Although not terrible, the music soon begins to slur together to the point where you'd be willing to pay the ticket price all over again just to hear a nice, pithy dialogue exchange between Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe rather than another noble song that sounds a lot like one you just heard a few minutes earlier. There were 49 identifiable musical numbers in the original show, and one more has been added here. Greatly compounding the problem is that director Hooper, in his first outing since conquering Hollywood two years ago with his breakthrough feature, The King's Speech, stages virtually every scene and song in the same manner, with the camera swooping in on the singer and thereafter covering him or her and any other participants with hovering tight shots; there hasn't been a major musical so fond of the close-up since Joshua Logan attempted to photograph Richard Harris' tonsils in Camelot. Almost any great musical one can think of features sequences shot in different ways, depending upon the nature of the music and the dramatic moment; for Hooper, all musical numbers warrant the same monotonous approach of shoving the camera right in the performer's face; any closer and their breath would fog the lens, as, in this instance, the actors commendably sang live during the shooting, rather than being prerecorded.
With Hooper's undoubted encouragement, the eager thespians give it their all here, for better and for worse. The live vocal performances provide an extra vibrancy and immediacy that is palpable, though one cannot say that the technique is necessarily superior in principle, as it was also used by Peter Bogdanovich on his famed folly, At Long Last Love.
One of the chief interests of the film is discovering the singing abilities of the notable actors assembled here, other than Jackman, whose musical prowess is well-known. Crowe, who early in his career starred in The Rocky Horror Show and other musicals onstage in Australia, has a fine, husky baritone, while Eddie Redmayne (Last seen in My Week with Marilyn) surprises with a singing voice of lovely clarity. Colm Wilkinson, the original Jean Valjean onstage in London and New York, turns up here as the benevolent Bishop of Digne.
On the female side, Anne Hathaway dominates the early going, belting out anguish as the doomed Fantine. These few minutes of heart breaking performance will boost her chances of winning the Best Supporting Actress trophy at the Golden Globes and Oscars. Playing her grown daughter Cosette, Amanda Seyfried delights with clear-as-a-bell high notes, while Samantha Barks, as a lovelorn Eponine, is a vocal powerhouse.
The problem, then, is not at all the singing itself but that the majority of the numbers are pitched at the same sonic-boom level and filmed the same way. The big occasion when Hooper tries something different, intercutting among nearly all the major characters at crossroads in the Act 1 climax "One Day More," feels like a pale imitation of the electrifying "Tonight" ensemble in the film version of West Side Story.
It's entirely possible that no book has been adapted more frequently to other media than Hugo's epic, one of the longest novels ever written. About 60 big- and small-screen versions have been made throughout the world, beginning with a representation by the Lumiere brothers in 1897, and Orson Welles did a seven-part radio version in 1937. In 1985, five years after the Paris debut of the French musical, the English-language production, with a new libretto by Herbert Kretzmer and directed by Trevor Nunn, opened in London, to less-than-stellar reviews, and is still playing. The New York counterpart packed houses from 1987-2003 and, at 6,680 performances, ranks as the third-longest-running musical in Broadway history (it reopened in 2006 and played another two years).
At the story's core is Jean Valjean (Jackman), a convict who has served 19 years for stealing a loaf of bread and trying to escape and, upon his release, redeems himself under a new identity as a wealthy factory owner and socially liberal mayor of Montreuil-sur-Mer. But his former prison guard Javert (Crowe), now a police inspector, finds him out and, over a period of 17 years, mercilessly hounds him until their day of reckoning on the barricades in Paris during the uprising of June 1832. Woven through it is no end of melodrama concerning Valjean raising Fantine's beautiful daughter Cosette (Isabelle Allen as a tyke, Seyfried as a young woman); the latter's star-crossed romance with Marius (Redmayne), a wealthy lad turned idealistic revolutionary; his handsome comrade-in-arms Enjolras (Aaron Tveit) and the earthy Eponine, who woefully accepts that her beloved Marius is besotted by Cosette. Well and truly having rumbled in from the film version of Sweeney Todd, Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen gallumph through as small-time swindlers in very broad comic relief.
Startlingly emaciated in his initial scenes while still on strenuous prison work detail, Jackman's Valjean subsequently cuts a more proper and dashing figure after his transformation into a gentleman. His defense of the abused Fantine and subsequent adoption of her daughter represent the fulcrum of Hugo's central theme that a man can change and redeem himself, as opposed to Jalvert's vehement conviction that once a criminal, always a criminal. The passions of all the characters are simple and deep, which accounts for much of the work's enduring popularity in all cultures.
But it also makes for a film that, when all the emotions are echoed out at an unvarying intensity for more than 2 1/2 hours on a giant screen, feels heavily, if soaringly, monotonous. Subtle and nuanced are two words that will never be used to describe this Les Miserables, which, for all its length, fails to adequately establish two critical emotional links: that between Valjean and Cosette, and the latter's mutual infatuation with Marius, which has no foundation at all.
Reuniting with his King's Speech cinematographer Danny Cohen and production designer Eve Stewart, Hooper has handsome interior sets at his disposal. However, with the exception of some French city square and street locations, the predominant exteriors have an obvious CGI look. His predilection for wide-angle shots is still evident, if more restrained than before, but the editing by Melanie Ann Oliver and Chris Dickens frequently seems haphazard; the musical numbers sometimes build to proper visual climaxes in union with the music, but as often as not the cutting seems almost arbitrary, moving from one close-up to another, so that scenes don't stand out but just mush together.
The actors are ideally cast but, with a couple of exceptions, give stage-sized turns for the screen; this bigness might well be widely admired. Jackman finally gets to show onscreen the musical talents that have long thrilled live musical theater audiences, Hathaway gamely gets down and dirty and has her hair clipped off onscreen in the bargain, and Redmayne impresses as a high-caliber singing leading man, but there is little else that is inventive or surprising about the performances. Still, there is widespread energy, passion and commitment to the cause, which for some might be all that is required.
But is it more awesome than "Paint Your Wagon"?
Les Miserables with Clint Eastwood as Javert and Lee Marvin as Jean Valjean. Clint sings while holding a single shot pistol on Jean Valjean "I know what you're thinking. 'Did he fire one shot or zero'? Well to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I kind of lost track myself."
Very funny. But here is the trailer for those who want to see it:
Hated just hated the stage version of this lousy Brit musical. And what I've seen of the movie version? Hugh Jackman is NOT aging well.
I found myself inferring that this operatic version was going to beef up the impact of the good Catholic Bishop in ValJean's life course. I hope that proves correct. The Christian life lessons could use a more truthful approach out of Hollywood.
It is an over blown show about a very evil event.
RE: I found myself inferring that this operatic version was going to beef up the impact of the good Catholic Bishop in ValJeans life course
The man who plays the Bishop on this film is none other than the original Jean Valjean on stage — Colm Wilkinson.
I went to see a stage version in Hollywood some time back ... and walked out ... during their perversion of the wedding scene.
I hate musicals. Needless to say, I would have seen this movie if not for that fact.
Evil event??!?
Yes, read the real history of the French Revolution. It was an evil event.
RE: It is an over blown show about a very evil event.
You mean the students who were killed in the barricades were the 19th century version of Occupy Wall Street? :)
From the little bit I heard in the trailer, Russell Crowe is no Philip Quast. But I congratulate him for trying anyway...
RE: I hate musicals.
So, the "Sound of Music", the "King and I", "My Fair Lady", etc. are not for you?
This was based on the June Rebellion of 1832, but had all the charming characteristics of the Revolution and the later Paris Commune. Those French really have a bad default setting for this sort of thing.
Its not a Brit musical, its a French one that has been translated into English.
The French Revolution took place well before the events of Les Miserables. The barricade scenes are during the June 1932 revolt in Paris.
My introduction to Les Miserables w as on stage in Boston. I was enraptured by the stage version. I watched TCM present three back to back screen versions a few nights ago and loved even the black and white rendering of this awesome story.
EWTN has presented a couple of programs on the new movie that made me believe it to be well worth seeing again. I hope the operatics don't get entirely lost on the audience's appreciation of a classic story of Good and Evil, virtue and vice. We are so lacking for healthy lessons at the movies.
As I told my wife when we saw the previews for the first time in the theater, "I'll be washing my hair that night".
I think I have more interest in watching a slasher film than this piece of pickled tripe.
I still can't see how you can make a musical about a very sad story.
Loved the movie back when!
Thank you! I can't remember who played the lead in the Boston production, but I was so mightily impressed that I saved everything from the night, including the cocktail napkin from the upscale bar situated conveniently nearby. Just a great experience for me, that play.
les mis ping to self
I wouldn't put it past a Hollywood stage version to inject
a same-sex marriage scene in there somewhere.
Please tell me I'm wrong.
Nope. I saw the first two as a child and while the filming was spectacular, I can't stand singing in a movie.
***I hate musicals.***
Ever see the movie SONG OF NORWAY? Absolutely the worst musical I've ever seen. worse than SOUND OF MUSIC.
I believe the audience spent half their time looking at the beautiful scenery and the other half looking for a place to barf.
I won't pay to see anything Anne Hathaway is in. So, I will wait to see it someday and may not, even then.
I saw the movie trailer at a theater when I went to see the excellent The Sessions. Yes, bombastic looks to be the word to describe it, if the trailer gave you a taste of what to expect. Too bad, since this show has a few of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in a musical. I knew this guy Todd McCarthy at the U. of Chicago nearly 40 years ago!
He's writing well, and has been working for VARIETY for a long time now!
Hoping to see it opening day
Which actually makes it sort of an indictment of the French Revolution, really.
"I still cant see how you can make a musical about a very sad story."
Ever heard of operas?
I will not see this movie, after having viewed a news story of Anne Hathaway's desperate attempt to garner publicity via an unfortunate failure to clothe her nether regions, which was filmed courtesy of our ever-vigilant media during a recent exit from her limousine. If the movie is so dreadful that such tactics must be used to draw the public, I'll pass.
Yes - however the musical is too "happy" - operas are about tragedies (well some but not all) - if they made a moody, dark, tragic opera about the book I wouldn't have a problem with it.
I watched this too ! I loved the 1935 version. I don't see why this has to be a musical ??? The 1935 version told the story just fine....
That's just your definition of a musical. Not a whole lot of difference between a musical & an opera.
Sorry, but it is a Brit musical - I should know - I was there on opening night at the Barbican Centre in London. The music was written by a French composer, lyrics were always in English. It starred Patti Lupone and dragged on for hours. I could not leave because Princess Margaret was drinking in the lobby (smart lady!) and security would not let us leave the building. It was produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company of Great Britain.
P.S. West Side Story has gangs and fighting. It's a musical.
Saw it in London too, though not opening night. Absolutely loved it - have the CD, DVD, and can't wait to see the movie.
Yes I concur. The Dialogues of the Carmelites gives a much more accurate view.
How is it when the leftists take over, the first thing they do is start killing priests and nuns?
(of course we know the answer why)
I read it in French and bought my daughter an English Translation, she loved the Play the Translation not so much.
I will buy it for her when it comes out in Blue Ray.
oops my bad - you are quite correct of course
Too bad - I had always thought of Javert's death as being emblematic of the passing of the ancien regime.
"Carousel" is considered by many to be the greatest musical in history. Although I just dissed the RSC's version of "Les Miserables," I also think that the National Theatre of Great Britain's production of "Carousel" was absolutely brilliant. Of course, most of the cast were Americans...
Of course I understand the 'need' to make everything into a movie (like Lincoln), how else the young could learn anything otherwise?
But above 'well sung' quote is as bad as it gets. How can you mess up the original scores? A couple of them (ok more than a couple) are truly beautiful.
Great music. But just saying LM is too happy. Was WSS from a book or an original play?
True - however was it adapted from a book? Just saying that LM is just too happy. Completely misses the point of the book.
RE: . How can you mess up the original scores?
By singing out of tune?
See for instance, the American Idol auditions. :)

Ashley & Dario get back together

US Weekly reports exclusively that Ashley Judd and Dario Franchitto, who announced their separation in January, are getting back together. They hadn't yet filed for divorce.
Franchitti was injured in an accident at the Grand Prix of Houston a couple of weeks ago. According to an US source:
"They are going to give it another try after he recovers. His accident made her realize how much she loves him."
She rushed to be by his side, with all the dogs. Now I'm wondering what that would have been like in the hospital. All of Ashley's puppies running around the celebrity wing. This is great news all around. For them. And for us. Whatever it takes for this hair to make a comeback.

Emery School District Superintendant Kirk Sitterud announced at school board meeting that the district is fully staffed and ready to begin school on Aug. 19. The opening institute was on Aug. 18 and will feature a motivational speaker, Steve Gilliland. He spoke on enjoying the ride and not just waiting for milestones in your life, but enjoying all the stops in between. He also taught two breakout sessions for teachers on teaching with passion. There was a benefits fair at the recreation center in Castle Dale that day with a barbeque lunch for all the teachers and staff.
Sitterud listed the new teachers and positions for the year; Doug Mecham, vice principal at Emery High; Alicia Whitesel half day special education at Emery High; Tisha Thornley half day special education at Emery High; Alicia Burr teacher at Ferron Elementary; Ryan Hepworth social studies and counselor at Canyon View Junior High; Leah Church family and consumer science teacher at Green River High; Amy Bell elementary behavioral psychologist at the elementaries; Kacie Healey kindergarten educational assistant at Ferron Elementary; Meagan Lamoreaux special education at Ferron Elementary and Mary Kava three hour library worker at Ferron Elementary. Sitterud said they are still looking for a part-time kindergarten teacher for Cleveland but LuAnn Jensen will continue a full day until they find someone to fill that position.
Corinne Dalton, FFA advisor was on hand with Jesse Malan who requested permission for Jesse to attend the Society for Rangeland Management with George Cook. The conference is in Albuquerque, N.M. Jesse will present at the conference. He is a student at Emery High and will discuss the medical purposes of plants and their healing properties. The school board approved the request.
A public hearing was held on the tax increase. Jared Black, business administrator presented a slide show outlining the changes. He said the projected enrollment for the district is 2,238. The revenue sources have changed very little. The tax rate will change from .005467 in 08 to .005361 in 09. The district has to repay PacifiCorp $116,000 for the judgment levy. This is a tax refund to PacifiCorp for tax protests.
Black pointed out if you experience any tax increase it will be because your home value increased, not an increase in the tax rate.
Due to the growth in the county, the district was able to offer another 1 percent increase to all employees in addition to the 1 percent increase already in the budget. The board came out of the public hearing and adopted the final tax rates and budget.
The board approved the health curriculum. Every three years this must be reapproved by the board. It is the sex respect core on human sexuality. It is abstinence based and must be parent approved.
Black presented the information gathered on the study of job descriptions and wages. They began a year ago to compare wages with other comparable districts. The custodian, bus drivers and mechanics wages were compared and determined to be about average so no changes will take place in wages. The supervisors have been asked to update the job descriptions for workers in their departments.
Sitterud told of all the trainings held recently which included: hazardous materials and asbestos, new teacher orientation, substitute training and bus driver training.
No Child Left Behind results will come from the state on Aug. 22, the district will have one month to review the results and the results will be released to the public on Sept. 30. The core test results came in this week.
Sitterud reported that Jim Keele had written a letter of appreciation to Jared Black for his help with the carpentry department at EHS.
Black said he has the warranty deed for the property donation for the county to build a Children's Justice Center.
Laurel Johansen, board president said the board should have the right of first refusal on the property should the county ever decide to sell the property. Black said he would meet with the county and let them know this stipulation must be met before the district will donate the property.
The next school board meeting will be on Sept. 3 at Castle Dale Elementary at 7 p.m.

Please include any relevant information such as skill level and style of play.
Comments: I was playing with Wilson Extreme Synthetic gut and I liked the feel, power and price. Only problem was
that it was loosing tensions (and control) very fast. Now I have been playing with SGX for several months and like it better, than
Extreme. It has a little less power, but much better control, which is most important for me. Durability is also better, I do not need
to move string back after hitting spin shots. I am using it at 59 lbs and I am 4.0 player.
From: Alex, 7/13
Comments: I put SGX in my Prince and it hits like a dream. Plenty of bite, control and power. Great feel and touch.
Hitting more winners than ever. Going to get my other 2 Prince racquets strung the same.
From: Mark, 7/13
Comments: SGX plays quite close to a poly string. It's comfort is similar to soft poly, perhaps a bit better but not
much. It doesn't have good ball pocketing and power (Wilson Red Alert, also a dollar more expensive than synthetic gut, and is
much better in these terms). Spin is average, but the not-so-good power helps player to make bigger cut thus can create more
spin. Durability is surely better than multifilament string but I'm not sure to what extent since I will cut the string soon. I'm using
Dunlop Biomimetic 100 (90 sq", 16x19, Europe, stock), strung the SGX at 55lbs mains and at 52 lbs crosses. I love multifilament
strings, but try to look a more durable one. For comparison I use the Red Alert on Wilson K-95 (95 sq", 16x18, Asian, stock)
strung at 58 lbs in the mains and at 55 lbs in the crosses. As for me Red Alert is a much better string.
From: Stanley, 6/13
Comments: This string is an overall okay string, nothing that really stands out, the thing that bothered me was the
color - the black is actually a light gray color.
From: Anon, 4/13
Comments: I put this string in my Aero Pro Team 2012. Great in spin, has some power, very cheap compared to my
VS touch strings. I won 2 trophies in USTA in the past 3 months playing with AeroPro Team with this string. A problem came along
after using it in 3 months. For the first time, I developed tendonitis. At first, I thought, it could be the way I hit, but I never really
changed the way I hit - finally I figured out that this is the string that caused my tennis elbow. I have always played with VS touch,
PHT, RPM, Addiction and Premium LT Prince. I have to cut this string asap and replace it with a REAL arm friendly string.
From: Marijade, 3/13
Comments: This is a very good string. Being a synthetic gut, it is arm friendly. The
string also provides a great deal of spin. I have been "painting the baseline" with my topspin forehand shots. Further, the string
provides plenty of pop to my shots. The string has yet to break after several hours of playing. And you can't beat the price. Highly
From: Gil, 9/11
Comments: I tried it in a hybrid (crosses) setup at 58 pounds and I found I had
a lack of control on the forehand side on medium and hard hits. I also struggled at the net. The only thing great was the slice.
From: Andre, 8/11
Comments: Great strings! A good, durable substitute for a gut/poly hybrid. This string offers plenty of power and a
ton of spin effortlessly. I am a defensive baseliner who doesn't mind taking an aggressive position on the court when the
opportunity presents itself. Great for players looking for a durable string that offers plenty of spin without sacrificing good,
consistent depth.
From: Alex, Chicago, IL, USA. 4/11

This is a few things about Mr. Popper's Penguins. One day Mr. Popper wrote a letter to Admirel Drake. Then, one night Mr. Popper heard Admirel Drake say "Mr. Popper I'm going to send you a present." Then one day Mr. Popper got a penguin and named him Captain Cook. Then they got a new penguin.Her name was Greta. They married and had 10 babies. they got trained and performed in a curcus. Read to find out more.I liked this book because the penguins were so funny.When they mess up the other acts because they were curious. I loved this funny book.I think everyone should read this book. It's so funny. I haven't met one person who didn't like this book.

Seeing economics as a cultural phenomenon rather than as mathematical models, Mr. Sedlacek asks if we can find economics in myths, religion, theology, philosophy, psychology, literature, and film.
If so, can we think about economics in a new way and calculate economic value differently?
Named one of the "Young Guns" and one of the "five hot minds in economics" by the Yale Economic Review, Tomas Sedlacek lectures at Charles University and is a member of the National Economic Council in Prague, where the original version of this book was a national bestseller. This book was also adapted as a popular theater-piece.
Mr. Sedlacek worked as an advisor of Vaclav Havel, the first Czech president after the fall of communism, and is a regular columnist and popular radio and TV commentator.
