The CBS drama "Harper's Island" blends cinematic production values with the excitement of a live reality TV show. The first episode opens during a festive, outdoor wedding celebration on a small island off the coast of Seattle, Washington. It's a happy occasion until an unknown assailant murders one of the guests. The tension continues to heighten a guest is murdered in each weekly episode.
"Just before we shot each episode, a producer told the actor portraying the victim that it was their last show," says Cinematographer Rob McLachlan, ASC, CSC. "No one else in the cast knew who the victim was that week. The killer isn't revealed until the end of the final episode."
"Harper's Island" was conceived by Executive Producer Jon Turteltaub, who directed the pilot episode. It was produced as a co-venture by his company Junction Entertainment and CBS Paramount Network Television. The 13-episode series, which premiered on CBS-TV in mid-April, was shot on a forest-covered island off the coast of Vancouver, Canada. While most of the story unfolds at exterior locations, occasional scenes are filmed in a sheriff's office, a bar and a teahouse pavilion. The only sets were a few rooms and the lobby of a hotel.
As the show's DP, McLachlan brought a wealth of insight and experience to the project. He was born in San Francisco and mostly raised in Vancouver, where he studied fine arts and filmmaking at the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University. He began his career shooting local commercials and environmental documentaries for Greenpeace, and earned his first narrative credit in 1987 for the TV series "Seahunt." He has since compiled some 40 cinema and television credits as a cinematographer.
As a top DP, McLachlan has earned the respect of his peers. He has won nine Canadian Society of Cinematographers Awards and earned five more nominations, along with four ASC Outstanding Achievement Award nominations.
"Harper's Island" is the first television series that McLachlan has shot since his work on "Millennium" in 1999. "The story takes place during an eight-day period," he says. "We started shooting during the late summer and ran into mid-winter in the Pacific Northwest, when the days were shorter and darker. We had to maintain visual continuity and make exteriors that we shot on dismal winter days look like fall. There is also an increasingly tactile, scary look that the audience can feel."
The show was produced using a 35mm format despite a relatively modest budget. McLachlan says that the format decision was crucial given the logistics, the widely varying and unpredictable lighting environments, and the nuances of the different looks they envisioned. "We needed the latitude of film for the audience to see nuances in colors and contrast, and details in bright highlights and dark shadows the way the human eye does," he explains.
Panavision Vancouver provided most of the show's camera package, including ARRICAM Studio and Lite bodies and a range of prime and zoom lenses. McLachlan also used his own ARRI 435 camera with Cooke S4i prime and Angenieux 28-75mm zoom lenses.
An aerial unit helped to establish the island setting for the pilot episode. As the show's mystery heightens, the island's power goes out and the phones stop working. The assumption is that the anchor of a passing boat disconnected the underwater power and phone cables. That story point isolates the characters in darkness, which is artfully woven into the visual grammar of the night sequences.
The pilot was shot in 13 days, and subsequent episodes were mostly filmed in seven 12-hour days. McLachlan says that they rarely covered fewer than 50 setups a day, and frequently as many as 75 to 80, while moving from one location to another with no pre-set lighting.
McLachlan, along with Gaffer Burton "Joe" Kuchera and Key Grip Fraser Boyle, got early copies of scripts before they were released to the actors. That enabled them to determine whether any special equipment was needed, and they and the script supervisor were sworn to secrecy. "We only scouted locations for the pilot and one other episode during a brief Christmas hiatus," McLachlan says. "We were constantly on the move."
The DP generally covered scenes with the two ARRICAM cameras. He used them at 90-degree angles, on the same axis, and at times looking nearly straight at each other. For the latter, he adjusted lighting to work for both cameras.
The ARRI 435 was generally used for "grab" shots, which were often handheld to create an edgy look and feel, and for the occasional speed ramps used to create slow-motion effects. "My documentary experience was a big help," McLachlan observes. "There was a lot of running, gunning and grabbing shots to take advantage of natural light. [Camera Operators] Mike Wrinch and Trig Singer had the freedom to go with the flow when happy accidents happened." Both camera operators have worked with McLachlan on previous productions in Canada.
McLachlan made frequent use of Airstar lighting balloons, which enabled two crewmembers to move the main source of artificial light through the woods and rough terrain as quickly as they could walk. The balloons usually carried an HMI and a tungsten light. "You can use either HMI and tungsten lights, or you can use just one of them in a variety of sizes," McLachlan notes. "We used balloon light in the pilot episode where a couple of our characters go swimming at night. We put an eight-foot-diameter round lighting balloon and a small generator on one of our boats and took it way offshore in the background. The balloon light gave us a beautiful and believable reflection of moonlight on the ocean with characters on the shore looking at it. That put life into a shot that otherwise would have looked like two faces in a sea of black, because you can't front light the ocean. Then, we brought another balloon in closer to provide our key light."
Several directors helmed the show but not for consecutive episodes. McLachlan generally conferred with the director of the next episode while he was shooting. "They all had their own ideas," he says. "I was also getting input from Jon [Turteltaub] and the other executive producers. There is a cohesive visual arc from the beginning to the end of the series. The first episode has a flat, warm, romantic look because it takes place in golden sunshine. I added a little saturation to create a warm, golden, romantic aura by using diffusion filters.
"The lighting became progressively less romantic and more naturalistic as the tension heightened in each new episode," McLachlan adds. "We lit the environments realistically and gave the actors freedom to be spontaneous in finding light and darkness at the right times." McLachlan gradually reduced color saturation in each new episode, partly with filtration on lamps that made the light increasingly cooler. He also added green tones to night scenes and made the lighting more neutral.
His approach to camera movement evolved to subtly complement the show's increasingly intense drama. In early episodes, A and B cameras were generally still or gliding smoothly on dollies. That gradually transitioned to more handheld shots. "There aren't a lot of unnecessary shaky camera shots, because that would have sent the wrong message," McLachlan stresses. "Every technique we used was as much a part of the story as the words in the script. Everyone on the crew made creative contributions. Mike [Wrinch] has a unique way of putting a [J.L.] Fisher jib arm on a dolly and hand operating the camera off of an under-slung head on the end of the arm. It's a very fluid style of shooting that allowed him to constantly adjust for the actors. It also sped things up because he could make adjustments on the run. He and the dolly grip created a very fluid up-and-down and organic feeling at the right times."
McLachlan took digital stills of every setup. He used both the KODAK Look Manager System and Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to color-time selected shots, which he emailed as visual references to the dailies timer at Technicolor in Vancouver, where front-end lab work was done, and to Dan Judy, the postproduction colorist at Modern VideoFilm, Inc. in Los Angeles.

The first posting is about firsts -- date, first love, first home, first child, and more. Take all of these beginnings and bundle them up into a story of how your Mom got started.
First date -- ?
First love -- ? I don't know if she ever dated someone other than my dad who she met in 1939.
She never got to filling in the section of a book Sweet Memories : a Woman's journal that might have given me the answers to these questions.
First home -- a cement 2 storey hon the Manitoulin. As a married person - They lived for a short time, as I recall from what she told me, in an apartment in a house on 8th Street East in Owen Sound. They then moved to the apartment above their corner grocery store also on 8th Street East. We didn't move into a "real house" until 1958.
First job - After high school, while waiting to get a job as a legal stenographer, she went to Toronto to do housekeeping. She wasn't there long when W. P. Telford, Sr. tracked her down to work in his law office in Owen Sound.
Well, my sister, Nancy was the first child in the family, born one year and two months after mom and dad married.
More on my mom next week for this series.

Are you a One Piece Fan? Then click HERE, you wont regret it!!!
hmm, I have a couple of favorites,
Leather Face (texas chainsaw massacre), That first scene where he appeared in the original and hit the guy in the head with a hammer leaving him spasming on the floor, then the meat hook scene, didn't matter how much the girl begged, she was just a piece of meat to Leather Face. Definetly a scary bad guy.
Nicky Santoro (Casino) played by Joe Pesci, He's just badass, screw the joker, Nicky would kick the shit out of him.... With just a ballpoint pen =.=
Ohh and IT the clown, I hated clowns as a kid becuase of him.
I would go between Hannibal Lecter and the Joker
bet i think Mr. Heath pull off one of his best acts just before he go
I think the Emporer should be up there, especially before Vader.
He turned Vader, He was Vaders Master, He was much more evil. Also by the end of the series Vader returned from the Dark and The Emperor didn't. He orchestrated all the bad things in the Star Wars Universe (1-6). He was the only truly evil character in all those movies.
My vote However goes to Gargamel from the Smurfs. He was a rat bastard.
Sig and Ava by Imotochan
Why don't more people read these mangas?
WE dont know WHY we feel forced to vote for JOKER. Its joker then.... DUDES, IS the JOKER.
joker is in the spotlight right now. He is insanity and chaos personified and that's scary.
as for my top 3 of all time
pinhead (hellraiser 1&2) epic evil
"your suffering will be legendary even hell." ..!!!....
any vilian played by gary oldman especially the dirty cop from leon the professional.
and a personal fav is chris walken as gabriel in the original Profacy (sp?)
In only one movie i was liking the bad guy, i was on the bad guys side, i wanted the bad guy to win. and that movie was the dark knight, my friends went into shock when i said after the movie - Fuck that the Joker was caught, he should have detonated the bomb earlier, then he could have escaped and that ass batman wouldn't be able to catch him* i mean that was the best acting i have ever seen, i hope in the next movie he escapes from prison, joins up with Catwoman *I have heard that catwoman is gonna be played by Cher*, and makes the whole world hate batman, which would fit with the ending in the last movie
Franky XD. Auw, Nice Harich
Want Gifs? This is the best place for good one piece gifs.
One mans treasure is another mans God - This is the story of my life.
The Joker.
Chaotic Evil is the only way to go.
Thanks to Ravona for sig.
I liked John Travolta's guy in Swordfish...I forget his name though, but I liked him.
Oh and the bad guy from the original Die Hard...dammit...was it Hans something....ah i keep forgetting...
Why don't more people read these mangas?

I disagree with Van about the resolution and am happy to see them taken with Chocolate Doom or the like. I'm glad they're making the vanilla testing explicit by using a vanilla compatible engine. I hope you manage an even better job than we did for Plutonia 2 in this department, which has some vanilla issues. (I'm aware of at least one VPO in an ugly place.) I will also use that resolution during play, so I have no reason to see higher resolution shots I will never see in the game. More importantly, screen shots are just a tease and 320x200 visuals show what you need to see, especially in any WAD that isn't heavily detailed.

Before you guys ask why is it gonna take that long. TNT2 is more of a sideproject to us. I'm busy developing Xenus 3 (TC) and managing Zero Invasion (the invasion ever?). Zap is possibly busy with The Empty Museum and helping firewolf out with WhoDunIt. Not sure about Whoo but he's probably busy with his studies. You should not worry, this project won't go to waste.

What is the best way to test vanilla compatibility. Is it as simple as "run map in Chocolate Doom," or is there more to it than that?
Kyka said:
Coz I don't think that Chocolate Doom, as neat as it is, replicates every quirk in the Doom engine. I don't really know, so just outta interest.

The Ospreys moved up to fourth place in the RaboDirect Pro12 thanks to a comfortable 28-3 victory over Treviso at the Liberty Stadium.
The Ospreys moved up to fourth place in the RaboDirect Pro12 thanks to a comfortable 28-3 victory over Treviso at the Liberty Stadium.
The hosts made two changes to the team that started the win over Cardiff Blues last time out with Ben John in for Tom Isaacs at wing and Joe Bearman replacing Jonathan Thomas at number eight, while an illness to scrum-half Kahn Fotuali'I led to a late call-up for Rhys Webb to the game.
In what was their last home game of the regular season, they needed the win to continue their claim for a semi-final place.
Treviso named an unchanged team from the one that was named for their postponed fixture against Connacht at the end of March.
Ospreys went into the half-time break 14-3 up thanks to an opportunistic try by Ben John, after a charge down from a kick out of the in goal area.
The decision came after careful consideration by the officials and a referral to the TMO, but they found that John wasn't in touch when he caught the ball, and he grounded cleanly.
Biggar gave his side more breathing space, touching down between the posts ten minutes into the second half after great pressure on the Treviso ball carriers forced them into a costly error.
Webb completed the convincing win by scoring in the final minute, leaving Ospreys in fourth place, level on points with Scarlets.
The scorers:
For Ospreys:
Tries: John, Biggar, Webb
Cons: Biggar 2
Pens: Biggar 3
For Treviso:
Pen: Botes
Yellow Card: Roux
Ospreys: 15 Richard Fussell, 14 Tom Habberfield, 13 Jonathan Spratt, 12 Ashley Beck, 11 Ben John, 10 Dan Biggar, 9 Kahn Fotuali'i, 8 Joe Bearman, 7 Justin Tipuric, 6 James King, 5 Ian Evans, 4 Alun Wyn Jones (c), 3 Adam Jones, 2 Richard Hibbard, 1 Ryan Bevington.
Replacements: 16 Scott Baldwin, 17 Duncan Jones, 18 Cai Griffiths, 19 Lloyd Peers, 20 Jonathan Thomas, 21 Rhys Webb, 22 Matthew Morgan, 23 Tom Isaacs.
Treviso: 15 Luke McLean, 14 Ludovico Nitoglia, 13 Tommaso Iannone, 12 Gideon La Grange, 11 Edoardo Gori, 10 Alberto Di Bernardo, 9 Tobias Botes, 8 Dean Budd, 7 Alessandro Zanni, 6 Simone Favaro, 5 Corniel Van Zyl, 4 Francesco Minto, 3 Lorenzo Cittadini, 2 Leonardo Ghiraldini (c), 1 Alberto De Marchi.
Replacements: 16 Giovanni Maistri, 17 Michele Rizzo, 18 Jacobus Roux, 19 Antonio Pavanello, 20 Paul Derbyshire, 21 Marco Filippucci, 22 Fabio Semenzato, 23 Kristopher Burton.

After watching the top 3 pairs medalists, I couldn't help but come away with thinking about what a relatively sloppy discipline pairs seems to be. A ton of acrobatics but at the expense of finesse and story telling. There are no teams like Gordeeva/Grinkov, Mishkut/Dimitriev, Sale/Peletier. Just... I don't know... jammed packed with elements.
Being one of the younguns here,this is my perspective. one weekend, i looked up some the older teams G/G, dimitriev and his ladies, etc. I ruined myself for pairs altogether. I cant enjoy most of these teams now that I have seen what the best used to be like.
I haven't read the whole thread, but I have to say, it sucks for Canada! Three teams in the top 10 yet still only 2 teams get to go to Olys next year.
As far as S/S still are able to make interesting programs, I could not really care less who wins bronze and silver. K/S, Z/Z, P/T... The performances I will forget tomorrow. Sorry, I already forgot.
Give me lovely, synchronized SBS that goes with the music so well as this:
You know what, give me T/M any time! I was not the biggest fan, but now I truly miss them. Everything was so smooth and precise... With a lovely flow.
I just rewatched Savchenko/Solkowy's free skate, and i really do think this one is quite beautiful, easily the best pairs program I can remember going back to B/S or S/Z at the end of the 6.0 era. But yeah, programs like this are a rarity these days.
I think pairs has went backwards. If more pairs would focus on being clean they would score higher.
I think I watched most of this event, I really can't remember. None of the pairs stood out to me except the beautiful Canadian team, whom reminded me of G&G in terms of looks & style (also I recall the girl got her face slashed by her partner accidentally in a live skating event quite a few yrs. ago, thus kudos for her for coming back!). The other pair that didn't bore me was the team that won from Germany ~ cheers ~ love the ending throw jump! Hmm, one other pair stood out to me, but in a peculiar way, it was a Russian or Ukranian Team? wherein the *man* was built like a lumber jack, huge & manly compared to the waif that skated with him. Lol, and I recall Scotty saying in reply to Sandra "well, one does tend to lose finesse with all that power" or something to that effect. ROTFLMAO.:chorus:
Oops, I also recall that I cut out half way through the second American pairs team, and was disappointed when I did so because when I came back they got a rousing USA standing ovation ~ good for them!
The US new team, Candy and Denny are the fastest Pairs I've seen come out of the USFS. They are good but they need more acrobatic tricks and a purposeful style.
I hope McL Bru know what to do for next season. They can't be making dumb mistakes during the big comps.

Should Have Ordered Correct Size
"Just got these, very cute but I order a 1/2 size bigger (I have wide feet), but because of the material, I need my correct size. Will return to get the correct size and do another review."

Cute, but...
"I want so much to love this shoe. The metallic details on the toes are so adorable. However, there are a few things that bother me. The shoe runs a bit long and wide. Yet at the same time, the elastic in the shoe is quite tight and tends to rub across the top of my foot a bit. On one hand I would suggest going down a half size. On the other hand I would not, to avoid a too tight fit across the vamp of the shoe. Im hoping that with some were the elastic will loosen, which has not been my experience with shoes like this in the past. Part of me wants to return this shoe, part of me wants to keep it and hope the fit will improve."

Did you love a boy band? If so which one?
Back Streets Back, ALRIGHT!ReplyCancel
Menudo, I was a Robby Rosa fan.ReplyCancel
New Kids and then Duran Duran. Are they really a boy band though?
DD will always be my favorite. I finally got to see them in concert last year. Awesome show! Their last album was the best they've released in years.ReplyCancel
Only if I can count The Police.ReplyCancel
Backstret BoysReplyCancel
New Edition and MenudoReplyCancel
NSync had some really good songs!
I liked BSB. Never liked nsync. As cheesy as they both were nsync's songs were intolerable to me.ReplyCancel
Ok, no, never cared about boy bands. The closest I ever came was a freshman year of HS obsession with Wham! Well, I maybe still think George Michael is the best ever ever, ok?
But Menudo makes me think about Ricky Martin – good God, that man was pure sex when he came out with that Vida Loca shit. Doesn't matter what team you play for or what team he plays for – he was pure sex moving around up on that stage!ReplyCancel
oh, this takes me back. I was best friends with a girl who was wild about NKOTB (and the Coreys, and our junior high student body president). I mean, wild. We were watching NKOTB videos and she would squeal and roll around on the floor. I was 13, too, and remember just staring at her and wondering what the hell was wrong with her.ReplyCancel
I have NEVER liked Boy Bands, not even when I was a teen; I have always had taste!ReplyCancel
Milli Vanilli and Wham!!! I still love them so much.ReplyCancel
Frufra!!! I absolutely LOVE George Michael, have since I was about 9 & Wham! was big. I had SUCH a crush on him. *sigh* He even got a shout out on my one time only facebook post of things/people I was thankful for last month. 🙂
When I was in junior high, everyone else was into New Kids-my friend Dana and I were listening to Led Zeppelin and The Doors.ReplyCancel
Curlyhair, I was listening to Duran Duran and Weird Al in junior high. lolReplyCancel
NSYNC! NSYNC! NSYNC! Ohh man…from 4th-8th grade that was my life. You couldn't see my walls because they were covered in posters I would rip out from J-14 and Bop. My 1st three concerts were Nsync, and my mother tells me those were the worst nights of her life, haha.
I'm not afraid to admit this but I'm still not recovered from them leaving me hanging in 2002, and I still await their reunion. C'mon Justin, we're just waiting on you. I tell myself this every so often…yes, i'm cool.ReplyCancel
If Motley Crue counts as a boy band, my answer is YES!ReplyCancel
NSYNC. I seen them 5 times in concert.
Oh lord.ReplyCancel
N"sync, Boys To Men.
Also Rolling Stones and Aerosmith. I know some people are going what. But these two groups are actually a band and play intruments.ReplyCancel
My first thought was "does Duran Duran count?" LOL! Seems there are quite a few of us. Remember the fold-out posters from Bop and Tiger Beat? I was allllllll about Simon. And the videos were so hot! Rio, Hungry Like the Wolf, Reflex…. Remember when Girls on Film was banned because it was too risque?!?! Positively tame by today's standards!ReplyCancel
Man, you gotta love the music snobs. Doesn't make you any cooler no matter what music you like. I love BSB for the kind of music they sing, same as loving NIN for the kind of music they play and Blake Shelton for his. Those that only appreciate one type of music are truly missing out on some great stuff out there.ReplyCancel
Nice Vicki! My brother is a HUGE DD fan, he saw them a couple times within the past year and he said it was one of the best concerts ever! They didn't come anywhere close to where I live or I would have gone!ReplyCancel
Damn I forgot LFO and 98degrees! BBmak and O-Town.
Jeez I guess in retrospect I really had a thing for boy bands.
"New Kids on the Block had a bunch of hits, chinese food makes me sick. And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer, for the summer"
Quality lyrics right there.ReplyCancel
Dating myself here, but THE boy band when I was young was the Bay City Rollers. I also was very much into the Hudson Brothers too. Not so much a boy band, but definitely on the pages of 16 and Tiger beat, which I read religiously.
Now, it's pretty much all Aerosmith for me.
Another. Bad. Creation.
The Traveling Wilbury's.ReplyCancel
Went to a concert when I was 11 with two friends. I cant believe our parents let us go alone.
At some point, I had a crush on each one, except Danny. Dont like the body builder look.
What? Only one person mentioned my favorite band. Menudo! Oh-oh-oh. I loved Rickeee. I was also in love with Wham! and New Edition.ReplyCancel
Duran Duran were never a boy band. They were/are an actual group, self-formed, they write their own songs and play all the instruments.
LOL, I know you guys get that… I just wanted to rant for a minute. 🙂ReplyCancel
Duran Duran when I was really young and the NKOTB. I'm 37. 🙂ReplyCancel
INXS was a boy band?? …. Loved Michael Hutchence tho…I had a door- sized poster of him and bought some docs since he wore them…rip michael…ReplyCancel
OMG. I HATED boybands as a preteen/teen…I thought NKOTB were awful, and couldn't stand any of the 90s pop stuff…Britney or whatever. What I liked first was Guns n Roses and I got then realllly into Britpop (Oasis, Blur) and whiny things like Smashing Pumpkins and grunge. But then I moved to Europe and developed an appreciation for cheesy pop. 🙂 At that point I decided it was okay to think BSB was actually pretty good, even though I still only listened to smartass indie and college radio stuff.
Being honest though, once a mom looking for a cleaner version of power-pop/rock to share , we got totally into the Jonas Brothers. I don't even want to tell you how many times we saw them live. SO I think they were my first?? Then only recently did I get obsessed with Take That's manband era, so they'd be my other…but it was a long evolution. Like reclaiming something I never let myself enjoy as a kid.
My kid is super into One Direction now, and I approve. I don't think it's necessary for her to be a musically snotty brat like I was. 🙂
Never. Unless you consider CSN&Y a boy band…
The one redeeming feature of "Rock of Ages": when Julianne Hough tells the young man how crappy her life has been since they broke up, and, he tells her "I'm in a boy band", and she replies: "You win".ReplyCancel
Oh wait, do the Monkees count, because they started out manufactured? If so, they'd be my first, but….nah…
And rock bands aren't boy bands even if they are all guys, you cheaters! 😛 And neither are emo bands even though they do kind of feel cheesy, esp when pretty,and I am def a bit embarrassed to admit it when I like them…ReplyCancel
Oh, Boyz 2 Men.. still makes me swoonReplyCancel
Boyz 2 Men for me…ReplyCancel
Bay City Rollers then THE Osmond brothers,ReplyCancel
jackson 5/Jacksons (still like a lot of their music) and Bon Jovi (not so much anymore, what can I say, I was an impressionable teen…)ReplyCancel
Okay, Duran Duran were not, and never will be,m a "boy band" you guys. Love them, but no.
I loved BSB and I was an adult in my twenties, lol. I never got on the NSCYNC train though.
I was not into boy bands when I was young. Just Wham!. I really don't think they were considered a boy band either. George Michael was the man I was going to marry. *sigh*
"Never trust a big butt and a smile"- words to live byReplyCancel
I loved Wham!, but thought Andrew Ridgley was cuter than George (what did I know, I was 14).We all know that DD were not technically a boy band but were there any boy bands in the early to mid 80's? New Edition, I guess. They were just not as mature and Brittish as DD. Sorry ladies, Simon is mine. Get in line.ReplyCancel
Jeez where do I start?ReplyCancel
Allteration is why. Boy bands and girl groups. It is silly that they can be called a band when none of them play the instruments.ReplyCancel
Nice to see some love for the "Prefab Four" aka The Monkees!
They were a boy band definitely, but they became much more. Went from being assigned instruments to play onscreen, to actually playing them. So many of their songs were incredible. Echo & The Bunnymen, their hit "Do It Clean" sounds an awful lot like The Monkees' "Stepping Stone." I'm not complaining, though… I love both!ReplyCancel
What the what?! Not one of you guys mentioned 5ive?! Oh god, I loved Scott so much (the one with spiky hair). I remember how much I wanted to be his gf when I was in high school *hangs head in shame*
I also liked BSB, N'Sync, 98 Degrees (Invisible Man *swoon*) and Westlife (how come no-one mentioned them as well?).ReplyCancel
The Monkees.
Hey, I'm old.ReplyCancel
Lynrd Skynrd and Led Zeppelin, except they were Man Bands.ReplyCancel
Backstreet Boys =-)ReplyCancel
The Monkees (I think Davey was my first celeb crush)

Skip to comments.Syria crisis: US 'to drop military threat'
Posted on 09/14/2013 2:18:41 AM PDT by elhombrelibre
The US will drop its insistence that a UN resolution on Syria must be backed by military force, officials say, after strong objections from Russia.
US and Russian diplomats say the two sides are edging closer to a deal on Syria's chemical arsenal, as talks in Geneva enter a third day.
They are thrashing out the technical details of the disarmament process.
(Excerpt) Read more at bbc.co.uk ...
Frankly, Putin and Obama share many of the same worldviews.
Not really...
What do you find on Russian borders?
Russian soldiers.
Russia does not have gay pride marches in their army.
"The US will drop its insistence that a UN resolution on Syria must be backed by military force"
Good. Presidents Wilson and Rooselvent can reast in peace now. They were turning in their grave at the freaking unbealivable announcement that a president of the United States found the arguments to start a war on ... Youtube.
That was quick!
Apparently the only people this Regime will go after are Conservatives...
The Pentagon could not even pay for the strike today if it were ordered without a supplemental to their budget. That's how bad things are.
Yeah, president Urkel has nothing in common with an actual head of state, unless it's a state headed by PeeWee Herman
The only thing being thrashed is Teresa's boy-toy.............
I know.
Putin supports abortion like Obama.
Basically, Putin is who Obama wants to be in his dreams.
Yes, a former commie turned president for life.
Might as well... kerry and obama both dropped trou for Pootie.
Putin: Jail anybody bothering you?
Obama: Yeah, some guy who made a video on YouTube. Got him on a parole violation.
Putin: Amateur.
If what you say is true... that may be why they hate each other. Like charges repel. Then Pootie is at least showing some signs of protecting and practicing Christianity and obama is firmly a muslim. They do share communism however.
Good one. They're in a race to see who can have the most political prisoners.
The USA didn't blink, we covered our eyes in fear.
I really don't care what anyone says...
Syria is simply none of our business.
Doesn't matter...
This is the USA.
Better to worry about the home team...
Is there anybody out there in GOP Land taking notes? Why is it the GOP is allowing itself to be rolled over and over again by this weakfish?
Maybe it's because Putin isn't afraid of being called a racist and is putting his country first?
LOL, comedy central at the white house again I see.
The great community organizer can't organize a piss up in a brewery and still there are dopes out there defending him, either based on colour or because they're stuck on stupid.
well of course. We are the true enemy to the regime, we pose a threat to their social engineering especially their homosexual agenda.
This whole administration has been a joke from day one .
Ya think Russia would put up with that epic lawlessness?
It stuns me how little was said about the one year anniversary of the killing of our Ambassador in Syria, the phony video story, the deaths of our brave men and the utter incompetence, negligence and possibly criminal activity of the administration in regard to Benghazi.
It is almost like this whole Syria crises was cooked up to give the media something else to focus on during the one year anniversary.
If that is the case, it was a lot more successful (although more dangerous) than the phony video story. Congratulations to the Obama regime for carrying out a successful diversion.
Yes. And, when's the last time anyone heard anything about the spending, the debt, the budget, and on and on.
and there isn't a revolving door at the kremlin for the muzzie brotherhood like they have at the white house.
Pitty we can't have same flat 13% tax like they have in Russia......sniff..cough...cry.
Obama is currently negotiating with Putin the terms for the removal of the chemical arms from Syria. These negotiations entail the removal to be conducted and overseen by Russia/Putin, Assads main supporter and must trusted ally!
In order for Assad to agree to this plan, he has demanded that Obama promise that the US will not attack the genocidal Syrian regime, under any circumstances. These terms will leave Assad free to continue his butchering of innocent men, women, and children.
Once agreed upon, these negotiations would also result in Putin gaining the control over the Middle Easts future, essentially eliminating the central role of the US in that vital area of the world since the 1970s.
To throw salt in the wound, Putin has also promised to further increase the shipment of conventional arms to Syria and Iran in an effort to secure the stability of those regimes; which would in turn make him a strong candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize. (Lets just ignore the fact that 1,400 innocent civilians were murdered by chemical arms; while more than 100,000 innocents were murdered by conventional arms.)
Putin will exchange the chemical arms with Assad for an unlimited supply of conventional arms. In addition, Putin has also sent the Russian navy to protect Syria from any possible US attacks. We must all keep in mind the fact that the war in Syria is being waged between two evils. In one side we have Assad, Iran and Russia, and in the rebels side, Al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood and Obama. The US should have never gotten involved in the Syrian civil war.
Again, in the most egregious Orwellian fashion, the American Secretary of State thanks Putin for taking over the leadership in the Middle East after displacing the United States. Meanwhile, the American media will laud Obamas Syrian debacle as a great victory for peace. Perhaps he will receive another Nobel Peace Prize, and this time it will be shared with Putin.
Putin never wrote autobiographical poems about homo experiences
.....and Russia's government has a fond regard for their Orthodox Church as it recognizes the necessity for a church-going citizenry.

Delivering Unique Opportunities to Entrepreneurship Students
Barbara Wall, award-winning lead attorney for Gannett, really pushes the envelope to give her students in American University's Master's in Media Entrepreneurship program a great experience.
"One of my goals in teaching the legal course for the MAME program is to expose the students to as many areas of the law as I can. I also want them to hear from the top practitioners in each of the fields we cover," she explains. Given the limits of classroom time, she developed a plan to take her AU School of Communication media law class to Dow Lohnes, one of the top media and communication law firms in the country where she has several contacts.
Throughout the day, several of the nation's lead attorneys in their specialties came by to speak to the students in 45-minute sessions tailored for the class. Topic areas included copyright, trademark, vendor contracts with corporate/tax/employment and there was also a session on how to avoid litigation.
Nick Barron, a digital strategist for AARP and a student in the MAME program, said, "By visiting Dow Lohnes I was in some ways able to engage with attorneys as if they were my company's lawyers, with me asking questions, seeing their body language and experiencing a conversation. I'm working on starting my own company, and I left Dow Lohnes that day knowing for certain the legal steps I needed to take in setting up my own venture."
Wall was also pleased with the experience. "When I approached [my contacts at Dow Lohnes] with the idea, they graciously agreed to host my class for the day. The result far exceeded my expectations: the students were engaged, the lawyers' presentations were spectacular, and to top it off, Mike DiFranza, founder of Captivate Network, came in to speak about his experiences as an entrepreneur at lunch." Captivate is a network of content screens in elevators throughout the nation's office buildings and office campuses; it was acquired by Gannett in 2004.
Why did Wall go to such lengths? "The [MAME] program is built on a wonderful concept, has attracted bright and promising students and is being extraordinarily well executed. I'm committed to giving them a broad, ranging overview of the law that affects media entrepreneurs."
"Barbara has always been one of our most successful adjuncts," says program director Amy Eisman, who also worked at Gannett. "She is also the busiest person on the planet. But somehow she was intrigued enough about creating something new that she devoted countless hours to setting up one of our program's most memorable days. When I heard about it, I cleared my own calendar to attend. It was an extraordinary day."
Wall also has guests come to her class, including Evan Burfield, head of Startup DC, which is the regional arm of StartUp America, a Steve Case and White House initiative. Burfield spoke to her class the same week he was launching 1776, an entrepreneur hub for the area that has $200,000 in backing from Washington, D.C.'s mayor.
Barron says this is a hallmark of the MAME program. "In two semesters we've already chatted with successful full-time bloggers, executives of media companies, nationally recognized attorneys and top leaders in DC's startup scene. Connections and relationships are the primary reason I joined the MAME program, and so far our faculty haven't disappointed."

Comments: i skate once weekly and these skates are perfect for that. they feel good and look good. Great quality skate. Recommend to the world.
From: Alex, PA
Comments: First pair of skates that I have ever owned. Great fit and performance. Ice Warehouse was the best price, the best customer service, and the best videos to help me decide on which skates to purchase. These guys know HOCKEY!!!!!
From: Shaun, KY
Comments: I just got back into skating after a 15 year lay off. I don't mess with rental skates so I purchased some Bauer Supreme one 20s to get back into the groove of things. It was no more than 2 sessions later when I decided to use ice skating as a avenue for exercise (specifically cardio) and a refreshing challenge. I get shin splints very easily from running so ice skating is very low impact in comparison. I skate 2-4 times a week. It wasn't long before i realized that i needed an upgrade. The few things i needed were: a) a heat mold-able skate, b) a replaceable holder/runner (i sharpen my skates every 6 - 10 hours of ice time) and c) better foot beds/insoles. I asked some hockey buddies of mine for suggestions, and i received a lot of responses. The best response however was, "wear what's comfortable and fits properly. Make sure to try the skates on before purchasing." I tried on a lot of mid level skates and even some high end skates, nothing beat the fit and feel of the Bauer Vapor X 4.0. I mind you this was before I did any work to them. When I received the skates from in-line warehouse, i hauled my butt over to the local hockey pro shop for the upgrades that i listed above. After heat molding, a pair of Super Feet Hockey foot beds and some Bauer Core socks, my skating progressed leaps and bounds. I am a better skater now than I ever was and I am only getting better with every hour of ice time. *Plug Mars Blackmon's "it's gotta be the shoes" quote here* If these skates are within your budget, you will not go wrong with these skates.
My recommendations: - Intermediate to advanced skaters that want a well built, structurally sound, sturdy boot. - Individuals with narrow feet. - Individuals that sharpen their skates often (due to replaceble runner and holder). - People that want heat moldable skate for best custom fit. - Purchase Superfeet foot beds and get them fitted appropriately by a pro shop (support your local businesses people).
From: Breezy, Philadelphia, PA
Comments: Overall, I'm really happy with these skates. This season I upgraded from ccm vector V08 skates. Right when I handled these Bauer skates I could tell they were well made and durable, turns out I'm right. Switching skates during the middle of a season can be tough, but not with these skates. After one practice with them I played in a game the next day. This skate has great heel support and are well constructed for lots of use. With the stainless steel runner there are no problems with rust. If you have wide feet I would recomend the EE size. Hope your as happy as I am with these skates.

Comments: These skates are amazing overall and are worth getting. Extremely comfortable once broken into, For some odd reason performance is just a whole lot better compared to my older skates (Vapor 2.0's & Supreme One.4s.) Im into freestyle and these skates are just amazing. Recommended to everyone.
From: Angel, Miami, FL
Comments: These skates are perfect for intermediate level play. After skating in them for around 11 months I could not be happier with the condition they are still in(2x week skater). They are a little dirty from puck marks, but all of the seams are still in tact and the support is as good as ever and they have not lost any stiffness. I personally think they look even better when worn down, as they are a little loud(visually) on the ice when they are brand new. The steel and holder have held up well, no complaints there. The plastic insert in the tongue is a fantastic touch, as I usually have lacebite problems no matter which skate I use. I hardly feel it in these skates and I think that insert really helps. I will say that I didn't like the non-waxed laces, so I had those replaced. It seemed like the OEM laces would come apart easily. These skates have made me a Bauer skate guy, as I have tried most other major manufacturers and I really feel like you get more for your money with Bauer.
From: Eric, St. Louis, MO
Comments: I have been skating on these since about June. They are light weight and offer good protection and fit great. Since I bought them online I wasent able to bake them in a skate bake oven I just used a hair dryer for about 2 minutes and they molded right to my foot. Little to no break in time was required. The toe cap is strong, I have taken a few hard shots to the cap and it holds up every time. Overall they are very comfortable just wish the sole was a little more padded. I recommend these skates to anyone who wants a high quality skate and is on a budget.
From: Brian, CO
Comments: These skates are fantastic for the price point. Before I used them on the ice I had them baked and I would highly recommend everyone else do that too. They quickly became my favorite skates of all time not just because of the fit but also the strong ankle support and overall durability of the boot and runner. There's a reason you see so many pros wearing Vapor
From: Mark
Comments: These are great skates. I had them baked twice and the fit is awesome. No issues with quality at all.
From: Ted
Comments: awesome skates for the price!!! im sure i will have these for a while. and always great buying for IW. awesome fast shipping!
From: Luke, MI
Comments: Overall this skate is solid and well constructed. However if you have lower arches you might have to get different insoles, or have your lhs punch out the arch a little bit. I tried these out and they killed the middle of my foot. They also seem to be a bit long. I wear a size 11 shoe (my foot is 11 inches long) and had to go down two sizes before I could feel the end of the boot
From: Davis
Comments: I haven't skated much on these yet, but I am very impressed with the fit. I have a pretty narrow foot so this skate fit me like a glove. It is recommended that you should size down 1 1/2 sizes from your shoe size. I ended up sizing down two sizes because I couldn't quite feel the end of the boot in a 9.5. I wear an 11 street shoe and fit a 9 in the vapor.
From: Cam, Utah
Comments: This is an awesome skate, I haven't played for about 10 years and I had to get new skates because my old Bauer 3000's were hashed. Iam just finally starting to play again and these skates are really comfortable and lightweight. I can't believe how much equipment has changed over the years. I have skated on them now about 6 times and you definitely need to bake them, I baked mine twice at around 170 degrees for 6 minutes each skate. Really helps if you bake them, I skated on them without baking them the first time out of the box and they were really uncomfortable and had a hard time lacing them up but now after having them baked they're great! I also am a bigger guy and my feet are wide so having them in EE width really makes this option great also, I did try on a pair of Reebok 8k's and also some CCM Crazy Lights and nothing compared to the Bauer Vapor X4.0
From: Gary, UT
Comments: I have been skating for a couple games with them. Stiff at first but after a little breaking in they feel real good. Feel like I have more power in my first couple strides to get me going. Overall very happy with my purchase.
From: Anonymous
Comments: I've been skating with these for about 10 games now and love them! Previously I was in Bauer XXII and use them for ~2 years before the toe cap cracked along the seam. I found them to be slight more comfortable than my XXIIs (especially through the balls of my feet) and they are stiffer (or at least I don't remember the XXIIs being this stiff when I first got them). I feel this stiffness helps to create a little bit more drive on the ice, especially in my first few pushes. I can't prove it, but I feel like I'm skating a little faster with them vs. the XXIIs. They are super comfortable, light and very affordable. I was also looking at the X5.0s, but just felt like they were not work the extra money. So far, so good. Some general Vapor feedback. I've learned they are more of a narrow skate vs. the Supremes. Keep that in mind if you have shorter or wide feet. I wear 11Ds and wear 12 shoes (long, narrow) so this boot fits great for me.
From: Michael, Austin, TX, USA
Comments: I've only had one good skate on them and unsharpened at that and I was still blown away. These are much stiffer than my old skates but after that two hours I couldn't even tell I had been wearing skates. Support is excellent, you can feel the ice very well. I can't wait to get them baked (and obviously sharpened) and get more time in on them.
From: Adam
Comments:I've got a couple of skates in with the X4.0, and I have to say I am very impressed! It's a much sturdier boot than I was expecting for the price, and they're both responsive and incredibly comfortable. The Vapor's reputation for breaking down quickly has always kept me in Supremes prior to buying these skates. While the longevity remains to be proven, I'm hoping they'll hold up just fine (especially considering my playing career is now confined to the beer leagues). As always, great experience buying from IW.

SO comfy!
"I bought a pair of Skechers Go Sleeks and loved them so much I wanted to try the Skechers Bobs Spring Loaded Sport Flat and see if they were just as comfy. THEY'RE COMFIER! Seriously, they actually feel more comfortable because the Bobs have memory foam cushion! I wondered if the Bobs would be the same size wise as the Go Sleeks..being that they have memory foam I thought the shoe might not be as roomy inside..wrong again. They're exactly the same as far as fit goes. I wear an 8.5/9 and the 8.5 fit perfectly, just like the Go Sleeks. The top of the shoe is made of stretchy fabric..so if you have feet that swell a bit like mine these are for you!!"

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
A representative from Utah Power attended the June public lands council meeting to give an update on the water situation at Electric Lake. Carlyle Burton, (Carly) said that he has been involved with water issues in Emery County since 1973 and has dealt with Commissioner Ira Hatch and Craig Johansen on water issues in the county. In all of the years, however, he has not seen anything like the water issues of today. He stressed that these situations are water issues and not political issues.
Burton presented charts and graphs assessing the situation at Electric Lake and the drought situation the county finds itself in. In the year 2000, stream flows were 83 percent of average, in 2001 it was 61 percent of average and in 2002 it was 41 percent and this year is just a little better than last year. Because of the sustained, continued drought, naturally reduced stream flows, and the water losses from Electric Lake, it currently contains only 30 percent of full capacity.
Burton has monthly inflow levels dating back to 1971, even before the reservoir was constructed. The flows have followed a certain pattern through the years. Low flow in the fall and winter, higher flows in the spring and then dropping off again in the late summer and fall. Burton described a 'funny thing' happening in August-September of 2001. On August 16, Skyline Mine hit a fault in their mine workings and right after that, the monthly flow charts began showing a negative lake balance. The lake began dropping in a manner greater than the outflow and the natural evaporation.
With the drilling of the James Canyon one well and the pumping of that water back into Electric Lake; the lake still remained at near zero computed inflow with negative computerized flows. "Why the negative readings? Why the dropping elevation of the lake? Is it going into Skyline Mine? We can't prove that," said Burton. He went on to explain the steps taken to monitor the flows and how Utah Power had installed measuring devices on upper Huntington Creek and at other lake tributary sources. One random reading in Feb. 2003, measured 13 cubic feet of water per second flowing into the lake with 9.2 cubic feet per second coming from the James Canyon one well and the remainder coming from other tributaries for a difference of less than 4 cfs. The lake is missing water and continues to do so and the rate of loss has been fairly consistent over the last 20 months at 11-12 cfs.
Utah Power has conducted high tech studies which confirmed that the lake sits on two faults of water bearing strata. A dye test was conducted and the dye hasn't surfaced as of yet. Tritium testing in the mine workings was also conducted with the theory being if tritium is not found in the water sample then the water has never been to the surface in recent history. Tritium being a byproduct of the atomic bomb and present in surface water since the first atomic bomb was unleashed. The initial tritium samples showed a .017 level of tritium and other samples indicate levels of 1.6 and 1.7. Burton isn't sure if the increase in tritium concentrations is statistically significant. Utah Power continues to look at solutions, a bentonite lining or a rubber lining have been considered but not deemed feasible. "There may never be a long-term solution. Maybe when the mining discontinues and the regional ground water table reaches equilibrium will be the best fix, but that could take several years. The question is how to keep the Huntington Plant in operation for the 2003-04 season," said Burton.
Electric Lake at full capacity holds 30,000 acre feet of water. The plant needs 12,000 acre feet of water to remain in operation. In February and March Electric Lake only held 4,000 acre feet of water. The company took action to remedy their situation by leasing 8,500 acre feet of water from the Huntington Cleveland Irrigation Company. They also looked at Cottonwood and Ferron Irrigation Companies, but didn't end up leasing from them because it looked like Hunter Plant would have an adequate supply to get through this year and into 2004. The 8,500 acre feet will come from the reservoirs on the left fork of Huntington Canyon. Other measures taken were to reduce the minimum stream flow from 15 cfs to 6 cfs to keep Electric Lake from being totally drained. As it sits today, Electric Lake stored more than was anticipated. Burton stressed the most important thing to them was ensuring the Huntington Plant would continue to operate. Another goal of Utah Power is to get the James Canyon well number three operating which will put another 11 cfs back into the lake. He voiced the need for that water to remain in the Huntington drainage. Eight thousand gallons per minute is still going out Eccles Canyon.
These are big issues, water rights and transbasin diversion issues and the water rights of the irrigation company must be addressed. Good records of stream flows are crucial in proving and documenting what is really going on.
Burton explained a situation they had in 1975 when they had a hole on the dam that went down 30 feet with water in it. Water was piping under the dam through fissures in the bedrock which resulted in material being scoured out of the center of the dam and it took one million bags of grout at that time to fix the problem. With these two faults discovered farther up in the reservoir there doesn't appear to be any feasible fixes. "We will keep working, but there are no easy answers," said Burton.
Craig Johansen mentioned that Canyon Fuel had announced they will idle the mine the second quarter of 2004. The difference was pointed out that with the mine being idled and not shut down the mine would need to maintain pumps and equipment. The question was also brought up as to whether or not the Division of Oil, Gas and Mining would invoke any water replacement laws.
Burton also commented on the wild and scenic rivers saying that Huntington Creek is a totally controlled river and the flow is regulated by Electric Lake and the Left Fork Reservoirs. He stressed a wild and scenic designation could potentially prohibit any further development along the creek and to be aware of and study the situation with great concern.

It turns out that we don't have any active troops right in your area, the GR kids are the closest ones. If you're able, a message saying that adults are needed to lead a troop in the area would be so appreciated! The contact for that would be Nina Green at 800-678-7809.
