|The Score Artists @ Work Member Directory Premier Partners Seminar Downloads SCL Videos NY Home Forum Ambassador Program Mentor Program Hall of Fame In Memoriam Lifetime Achievement Emerging Composer
Bill Conti
Above, composer Bill Conti performs at the 2013 SCL Holiday Dinner.
The remarks below are from Charles Bernstein's introduction at the 2013 SCL Holiday Dinner:
Bill Conti has scored over a hundred feature films and in the process worked with some iconic directors: Paul Mazursky (Blume In Love, Harry and Tonto, Next Stop Greenwich Village, An Unmarried Woman), John Cassavetes (Gloria, Big Trouble), John Huston (Victory), James L. Brooks (Broadcast News Howard Zieff Private Benjamin Unfaithfully Yours Norman Jewison: ( F.I.S.T.), John Frankenheimer ( The Fourth War, Year of the Gun), Taylor Hackford (Blood in, Blood Out), Costa-?Gavras (Betrayed), John McTiernan (Nomads, The Thomas Crown Affair) …and his life-long collaboration with John Avildsen on films like Slow Dancing in the Big City, The Karate Kid (and the sequels), The Formula, Neighbors, Lean On Me, 8 Seconds, For Keeps. And of course… Rocky … the song from which "GONNA FLY NOW" was a #1 hit on the Billboard charts in 1977. Then there are his TV themes: Dynasty, Falcon Crest, The Colbys, Cagney & Lacey, Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, American Gladiators, Primetime Live, and Inside Edition. And,a slew of TV movies and mini-?series: North & South (plus 2 sequels), Napoleon and Josephine, Murderers Among Us: The Simon Wiesenthal Story, An American Tragedy, and Winchell. He's had three Academy Award nominations winning in 1984 for his score to "The Right Stuff", a five–time Emmy winner from 13 nominations, three Golden Globe nominations and a Grammy nomination for "For your Eyes Only". He's received 13 ASCAP Awards including the prestigious Henry Mancini Lifetime Achievement Award, the ASMAC Golden Stave Award and like Randy, he is a member the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame. He's also been musical director of the Academy Awards presentation a record 19 times. He is in constant demand as a concert conductor and currently in his first season as pops conductor of the San Diego Symphony. I could go about his accomplishments all night, but one of his most endearing qualities is his sincere interest in mentoring and nurturing young composers in whom he sees potential. I know, because I was one of them. Ladies and gentleman, please give a warm welcome to my dear friend, Bill Conti.

Adventuregirl needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 62 designs submitted by 30 freelance designers.
Adventure Girl
Hey Designers!
My name is Stef Michaels from Adventuregirl.com. I am a travel journalist by trade and a travel personality for the media. Albiet I am "talking travel" for tv and print, what I am about is simply this: Adventure is an extension of your curiosity. I believe you can find life's adventures at the top of the Andes, or simply by taking a risk and changing your lipstick color. I'm girlie for sure, but I also was taught- anything boys can do- girls can do just the same!
my market demo is all over the map- hitting the 25-45 demographic is my target audience. Most are active, into fashion, and are more "hip" than not. The demographic is both male and female. So, nothing too girlie- a more generic logo would be best- i.e. no daisies or floral. Also, no "travel" items like planes, cars, boats- remember- it is travel, but it's more like traveltainment and living life's adventures what ever they may be. I wear a kind of Gucci-esque type "AG" charm around my neck- although logo does not need to reflect this.
If you head to the site- you'll see a horrible logo that's ancient. Nothing too feminine- something that appeals to both male/female- I tend to like more clean look than not. NO STOCK IMAGES/GRAPHICS please! ;0

You can tell Samuel is a shill for the pokersites. I MEAN LOOK AT HIM...all he does is sit in front of a computer all day..... can't even put clothes on..probably wears a diaper cuz he is soo glued to his poker screens and doesnt even know what day it is when his parents call him downstairs for dinner
This has been pretty amusing. I don't pretend to know if the garbage is fixed or not. I know in my past I've gone broke on some pretty bad suckouts, but I've also avoided going broke on a couple. My problem always tended to be getting hit with a bad suckout and then playing like a moron the rest of the way.
Anyway, the real reason I wanted to comment was all the people taking shots at Samuel. Whether you agree or disagree, idc, but like 4 people have mentioned him referring to him AS the individual in his avatar. Seriously guys? You think a guy who looks like that is actually putting himself in his avatar. Everyone who has an avatar, it's them? So Cappa is actually 3 different black men and SOBlatant is actually Jimi Hendrix. As you can see, my name is Timothy Tebow. Regardless of opinion on the matter, I'll be sure to pray for you all.
Dude seriously? Go browse the avatars here. You've been here two and a half years. You've gotta have more common sense than this. You're right, most are famous invidividuals, so obviously not them. Others are half naked girls, also not them. The rest are sprinkled variety, of which often include weird looking men, like one guy who's got a creepy preacher/molestor as his picture. That's not famous so its him right? This dude is CLEARLY not his avatar. Its a joke, a spoof, an attempt at humor. This is a secondary issue to this thread, but your response just warranted a reply. The random fat guy is 'prob' as you say, an joke because it is a rather grotesque individual...not a self portrait. And 20-1 on whatever amount you'd prefer says so.

Well, there is one more thing that keep me looking forward..that's my daughter's last day of school in her kindie. I've promised her that I'll make something special for her friends for the final day party. Okay, I admit that they were not that special, for those were cupcakes again...haha! But with the figurines on top....they should love it..:)
Here they are.....(left) for boys and (right) for girls with their names on it...^^
A closer look on those little cuties...that took me few hours to complete all of them. The same chocolate cupcakes which I posted long time ago, but this time added dark rich melted chocolate. Guess all kids love chocolate..:)
My daughter has been telling me that she'll miss the school and can't believe that she's really leaving the school..;p And I hope she can cope with her pri1 next year.
Not to forget about the teachers in her school, They have done alot and were so caring for all these years. Here's a tiramisu for the teachers and hope they'll enjoy it..:)

Yet Another Reason Why Nuclear Power is Good
Joan Stephenson, PhD
A worldwide "critical shortage" of medical isotopes is expected due to the shutdown until late 2009 of a nuclear reactor in Ontario, Canada, according to Canadian authorities. The reactor, which stopped operations because of a heavy water leak, produces as much as 40% of the global supply of molybdenum 99 (99Mo), which decays to form technetium 99m (99mTc). 99mTc is currently used in approximately 80% of nuclear medicine scans.
According to Natural Resources Canada, the world's current supply of 99Mo is produced by 5 aging reactors in Belgium, Canada, France, the Netherlands, and South Africa. The shortage was expected to be exacerbated by the temporary closing of the Netherlands reactor for a month-long maintenance inspection from July 18 to August 18. Because the isotopes have a relatively short half life, they cannot be stockpiled.
Canadian authorities said they were working with medical isotope distributors and others to maximize the use of existing isotope supplies and with other international producers to increase isotope production and to coordinate shutdowns and other operations.
That's right, we use nuclear power to make medically-important isotopes. Well, not "we," as in local US plants but we rely on foreign plants to irradiate our 'topes for us. I'm not sure why we don't have our own plants churning out isotopes ourselves, but that could be related to the fact that we haven't built a new nuclear plant in America in 30+ years. There's a brain drain of nuclear expertise from this country and we'd probably have to import some European-made design if we ever started being smart with nuclear and joined the proper energy source of the 21st century.
That's right, I think nuclear power is great. Think about it: nuclear power produces virtually no greenhouse gases and can make us virtually energy independent. Two big birds down with one stone. Oh, and if you want to create jobs - how about building new plants and building a smart nuclear engineer workforce in America? Nuclear energy has a proven safety record in America - and this is with using clunking designs from 50 years ago. How much better would we be with if we built new, more efficient and safer designs that we find in places like France? This is one area where France got it right: most of the electrical energy of France is supplied by French nuclear power plants.
Worried about nuclear waste? Read up about Yucca Mountain - a location long-studied in geology as an ideal place to store radioactive waste and practically ready for operation if the politicians would only let it. Worried about transportation of radioactive waste? The US has a track record of shipping waste thousands of times and there has never been an incident or accidental release of waste. Worried about terrorists? Seriously? You can't hold back our nation's progress based on the fear of a might-happen. All nuclear facilities in America are very well guarded.
That all said, I don't think nuclear fission will be the only power source of the future. I think solar energy is an excellent source as well. Solar energy bathes America with tons of free energy on a daily basis and if we could harness even a bit of that (particularly from our little populated, but very illuminated Southwest deserts) the Sun could easily supply more energy for us than this country uses many times over. Hydroelectric power has its niche uses but it's poor for general energy supply. Wind energy seems like a goofy idea to me and likely to always be marginal since it's such an eyesore. Other ideas like geothermal are unlikely to become much since their technical maturity would come at around the same time as nuclear fusion power and fusion could be the real powerhouse for the end of the 21st century.
Nuclear power is power of the future - whether it's made right here on Earth or has to travel 93 million miles from Sol.

Fission <> fusion.
Plus the latter is the source of our solar energy. It has nothing to do with the nuclear argument.
The US has a track record of shipping waste thousands of times and there has never been an incident or accidental release of waste.
1) Tell that to the residents of all the states through which the waste will travel. 2) I was held up for an hour on the Pennsylvania turnpike because of a detergent spill. Imagine what ONE nuclear waste spill would do.
A couple of other things you neglected to mention:
1) The track record of safety is excellent, so why doesn't the nuclear industry agree to abolish The Price-Anderson Act?
2) EVEN WITHOUT including the above in the calculations, the cost of building nuclear is incredibly expensive.
I'm not saying that nuclear doesn't have a place, only that there is much more to the equation than you are presenting.

Actually there was an episode of Star Trek TNG where the Love Boa... I mean the Enterprise D encounters a space barge full of nuclear waste that was threatning a planet. Why don't we just shoot it all into space?

"Fission <> fusion.

Really? You don't say!
"1) Tell that to the residents of all the states through which the waste will travel."
I'd be ok with it. They're being irrational to fear it.
"2) I was held up for an hour on the Pennsylvania turnpike because of a detergent spill. Imagine what ONE nuclear waste spill would do."
Except that nuclear waste is transported in containers that you could light a bomb next to and they wouldn't spill. Ever see this video?:
"1) The track record of safety is excellent, so why doesn't the nuclear industry agree to abolish The Price-Anderson Act?"
I didn't neglect it, I simply hadn't heard of this act before. And the answer is simple. We can presume that no industry would willingly take on liability, no matter how remote, if the federal government is willing to back them for it.
"2) EVEN WITHOUT including the above in the calculations, the cost of building nuclear is incredibly expensive."
Sure, high upfront capital but cheaper in the long run. And besides, building expensive stuff on US property would be great for the economy.

Polywell Fusion.
Look it up. A small version that was barely net power running D-D could be a local source for isotopes.

M. Simon,
Wow, that's huge! I had no idea practical fusion power could be on the cusp. If this turns out to be the real deal then all my fission talk is wholly unnecessary.

To make nuclear power attractive, we need to answer the following questions:
Let's say that 20% of electrical energy for the US will be generated by nuclear power:
1. How much nuclear waste per year will be generated, in terms of tonnage?
2. Where will it be stored?
3. For how long will this waste remain toxic?
4. What happens when a nuclear power plant blows up?
The answers to the above questions are murky to me and I suspect to the average American. Once they are clearly answered, then one would be in a better position to support nuclear power.
- January 5, 2010 at 3:50 PM

"Let's say that 20% of electrical energy for the US will be generated by nuclear power:"
Will be? That's how much is produced today.
"1. How much nuclear waste per year will be generated, in terms of tonnage?
2. Where will it be stored?
3. For how long will this waste remain toxic?"
I don't know how much is made, but that's probably easy to look up and not particularly relevant. Storage will either be on site for the short term but long term plans have the Yucca Mountain site as ideal, as I mentioned in the original post, where waste will be kept safely for as long as they need to be.
"4. What happens when a nuclear power plant blows up?"
They won't. We've operated hundreds of reactors in this country for decades with none ever blowing up, or even unintentionally releasing any dangerous material.

You have got to be kidding me! Do you have any idea how destructive uranium mining is to the workers, local inhabitants and environment? Are you really willing to say that they people that are helped through these isotopes are worth those that die from exposure through mining practices? Not to mention the water that's destroyed. And that water is incredibly precious. We are in the midst of horrible water wars and shortages. Water is the most fundamental thing to life there is.
- February 21, 2010 at 3:05 AM
- Orthoprax said...
Sure, uranium mining has it's dangers, but they are controllable. What would be your alternative anyway? Coal mining with its proven safety record?
Do you prefer to waste water at far less energy efficient rates by encouraging the coal mining status quo?
It takes something like nine coal mines to get the same energy production as one uranium mine.
- February 21, 2010 at 11:54 AM
- Geonite said...
No, the dangers of mining are NOT in the least bit controllable. I'd like to invite you to New Mexico to talk to miners whose health has been destroyed because of uranium mining. And ISL is not much better. We need to get onto solar energy.
- March 14, 2010 at 12:21 AM
- Orthoprax said...
Please show me some data about health problems for modern uranium miners. Seems to me that with modern safety methods the risk to miners can be completely reduced.
"The safety record of the uranium mining industry is good. Radiation dose records compiled by mining companies under the scrutiny of regulatory authorities have shown consistently that mining company employees are not exposed to radiation doses in excess of the limits. The maximum dose received is about half of the 20 mSv/yr limit and the average is about one tenth of it.
"The small, unventilated uranium "gouging" operations in the USA which led to the greatest health risk are a thing of the past. In the last 50 years, individual mining operations have been larger, and efficient ventilation and other precautions now protect underground miners from these hazards. Open cut mining of uranium virtually eliminates the danger. There has been no known case of illness caused by radiation among uranium miners in Australia or Canada. [The largest producers of uranium worldwide.]"
"We need to get onto solar energy."
Sure - make it efficient and cost effective [and work on the battery problem so we can have power at night!] and I have no problem with it! Personally I'm pretty psyched by the potential of polywell fusion.

You're going to believe what the world nuclear organization says about nuclear energy? I see these people coming in almost daily, but no one will tell you about it. I've also researched ISL and it's impossible to restore an aquifer to safe levels after ISL mining. Are you aware of the water shortages the world is facing?
Here's a few sources from an initial Google search.
Just do a Google search. I can tell you that the federal government is paying a lot of money to former miners. It helps alleviate their suffering but it doesn't give them back their health. I don't have the numbers but I'm an environmental scientist for the Sstate of New Mexico and uranium mining severely affects people who mine, their families, and the people living in the surrounding areas.
- March 14, 2010 at 10:37 PM
- Orthoprax said...
"You're going to believe what the world nuclear organization says about nuclear energy?"
Um, yes? They're just quoting facts and figures - if you have facts and figures which dispute them then please so present.
"I've also researched ISL and it's impossible to restore an aquifer to safe levels after ISL mining."
I'm not aware that's actually been demonstrated true. I suspect that over long enough time periods, even the dirtiest aquifer will be clean. And again, I point to the much more dirty option of coal mining which little doubt is more toxic to the environment many times over.
"Are you aware of the water shortages the world is facing?"
Is anyone using the water from these aquifers before mining takes place? Does coal mining ruin less water?
"ust do a Google search. I can tell you that the federal government is paying a lot of money to former miners."
Sure, because the mining done 50 years ago was not done safely. We have learned a bit since then.
- March 15, 2010 at 2:23 AM
- Geonite said...
No one has managed to return an aquifer to it's original state yet. They all get special permits after trying and spending billions trying to do it. And I'm talking about mines that are in production now not 50 years ago. Do some research. You're obviously an intelligent person, but, for some reason you've decided that nuclear energy is a good thing and have closed your mind to any other possibility.
There was a vet in my environmental and occupational health class last year. She felt the same way you do about nuclear energy when we started the class. She kept defending it. Her view point changed radically by the end of the class when she understood some of the implications of uranium mining.
Stop believing what a subjective association tells you and start researching it for yourself.
Uranium is a huge hazard and should be left where it is. There's a reason God put it underground.
- March 17, 2010 at 9:13 PM
- Orthoprax said...
I have to be frank - I'm simply not that concerned about a bunch of aquifers having increased toxic levels, especially if the sites are well selected - which they tend to be. New sites being chosen in Australia, for example, are well away from habitated areas and the groundwater start out being not clean enough for human use.
In addition to this, although repurification of the waters used in ISL have not yet been 100% effective, they have been pretty successful and there is active reasearch in this field.
So comparing this to coal mining which has obvious and direct ruination of surface and groundwaters, plus decimation of surface land - and regular headlines like this:
"123 trapped in China coal mine"
I fail to see why nuclear power should not be sought for the near to intermediate future towards cleaner power and to wean us away from the obvious harm of coal.

Right-hander Jason Hammel took a significant step toward returning to the Orioles' starting rotation Tuesday, throwing a bullpen session off a full mound for the first time since re-aggravating a right-knee injury two weeks ago.
Hammel threw 35 pitches in the Orioles' bullpen before Tuesday's game and tested out a new knee brace that he said was similar to a quarterback brace and was very helpful in keeping his knee stable.
"I was actually surprised," Hammel said after the session. "I though it would still be a little weak. The last few pitches I felt a little weakness and a little discomfort, but it's a step in the right direction."
There's still no timetable for a return, but Hammel said he remains optimistic he can return this season.
"I really don't know," he said. "I'd like to be. That's the game plan. It really depends on how it reacts tomorrow. Obviously, it feels great right now but it could come back and be really sore tomorrow."
Of the 35 pitches, Hammel said he just threw a few at 100 percent.
"I'm definitely not at 100 percent," he said. "I didn't want to set my expectations too high last night because I knew I was going to do it today. I was expecting to hit a wall at like 20, but I still felt strong at 35."
Hammel limped off the mound in the fourth inning of his Sept. 11 start against the Tampa Bay Rays, tweaking the same knee that he had arthroscopic surgery on in mid-July. He missed eight weeks and then hurt the knee again in his second start back.
More injury updates
Outfielder Lew Ford, who normally would have started Tuesday against a left-hander, wasn't in the lineup because he is dealing with a groin injury that he suffered while running to first base Sunday in Boston.
"[Monday] it was as sore if not sorer, that's why we were cautious with it," Showalter said. "[Tuesday] there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of improvement. But he still could potentially do some things if we so desired."
Right fielder Nick Markakis, who has been sidelined since being hit with a pitch from CC Sabathia pitch Sept. 8, received a new hard cast for his left thumb Tuesday. He said he is hopeful that he will get the pins removed next week while he and the club are in Tampa. And that allows Showalter to remain hopeful that Markakis can return during a potential postseason run.
"Hopefully, it has the potential to be on the fast track, we'll see," Showalter said.

Your child's first year will fly by (really, FLY by) so why not remember all those amazing firsts on a beautiful, modern poster? With the fresh and lovely Milestones Poster by StrangeBirdy Studios, you can document and remember every single first step, word, giggle and more. This 20 x 30" fill-in-the-blank infographic-style poster is stylish enough to hang anywhere, with colors that will complement any nursery -- and it has many other benefits besides. Keep reading to learn more about this beautiful keepsake poster.
About the Milestones Poster
The wonderful Milestone poster comes with over 40 blank fields for you to draw, write or color in and the entire poster is bordered by growth rulers to track your baby's height and weight. This poster uses brilliant and super cute infographic-style graphics and charts instead of boring ol' lines alone. The poster is printed in soothing gray tones with pops of modern orange, brown, yellow and red shades throughout. The Milestone Poster is only available in the standard edition right now and does not include the fabric sticker sets you see in some of these images. StrangeBirdy Studios notes that fabric sticker sets are coming soon and will be sold separately.
Don't Miss a Moment!
This poster offers enough room to record all kinds of firsts such as place of birth, first motor skills, cute baby hairstyles, first Halloween costume, first words, first crawling adventure, first steps and much more. There's even a special place for your family tree.
Design Aspects
A lot of design savvy thought went into making the Milestones Poster and it also features some eco-friendly benefits. Each lovely poster is printed on a sustainable FSC certified, carbon-neutral Mohawk Loop Feltmark paper made from 100% post-consumer waste. This poster paper, perfect for writing on, is manufactured with windpower and each poster is also printed using soy inks in a print house that is 20% solar-powered. Although gorgeous and eco-friendly, this keepsake poster is a steal at just $45.00.
My First Year Poster
If you're not keen on the modern orange and browns included in the Milestone Poster, you may want to check out the equally lovely, but more subtly hued My First Year Poster. This poster comes printed on beautiful velvet-finished fine art paper and is available in either aqua or white. My First Year offers over 30 fields you can fill in with all your child's first developmental milestones such as first words, first trips, favorite foods and more.
My First Year Cards
If you're looking for something a bit smaller in scope than a poster, StrangeBirdy Studios also offers the My First Year Cards. These cute and useful cards still offer over 30 blank fields for you to fill in, but since they're smaller cards, these may be used as a cool first-birthday invitation or as a nice holiday gift for grandparents. The cards measure 5×7 inches when folded, and open into three gorgeous panels that span 15×7 inches. Envelopes are included and cards are sold in packs of 5, 10 or 20. Cards are currently available in Aqua only.
+ The Milestones Poster $45.00

The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid marks an entry into the hybrid sedan market. Based on the Sonata sedan, this hybrid manages to distinguish itself from others in its class. It costs more than the regular Sonata, but that stays in line with other hybrids. Notably, it costs less than competing hybrid sedans.
The lower cost results from the approach Hyundai uses in regards to the electric portion of the powertrain. Usually, with hybrid designs, manufacturers use a nickel-metal hydride battery with the electric motor. Hyundai takes a simple and thus unique approach to adding an electric motor to the Sonata. The electric sits in between the gas motor and transmission. Hyundai breaks from standard practice by using a lithium-polymer battery pack. This saves on production costs and adds less weight than the nickel-metal hydride. The company spent less in research and development, since the design is more of an adaptation than a full redesign. Less research and development cost to recoup means a lower retail price.
The Sonata Hybrid earns credit for being a respectable first effort by Hyundai to enter a rather crowded family hybrid sedan market. The lower cost makes it well worth looking into, but few automatically recommend it. Buyers should take a look at the other entries in this class, since it has so much to offer, and the Sonata Hybrid is still a young design that hasn't proven itself over a longer period of time. Hyundai seeks to compete with the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, and Ford Fusion with this model. All of these models compete worthily with the Sonata.
Most worthy of note, the Sonata Hybrid's exterior features more than just cosmetic differences from the regular Sonata. Most body parts, add-ons, and the rims have been altered to increase the aerodynamic qualities of the hybrid. Lower wind drag means greater efficiency, and efficiency is vital to a hybrid. Hyundai claims that the aerodynamic improvements in the Sonata body design for the hybrid model lowers the drag coefficient to 0.25, making it the same as the Toyota Prius.
The Sonata Hybrid offers only one trim level with two optional packages. The base model starts out with 16-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, and foglights. The Ultimate package adds exterior features such as 17-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, and a rearview camera.
Under the hood sits a gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain that uses a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that produces 166 horsepower and 154 lb-ft of torque, combined with a 30kW electric motor. Together they produce a peak of 206 horsepower and 193 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission with manual shift control sends power to the front wheels.
The hybrid has mostly the same interior as the regular Sonata. A few changes result from the hybrid nature of this vehicle. The obligatory hybrid display both monitors the gasoline-electric powertrain, and instructs the driver on how to drive in a more fuel-efficient manner. Other than that, the hybrid offers less rear-seat headroom due to the aerodynamic body design. Also indicative of its hybrid nature is the decreased trunk space to make room for the electric motor battery. The standard Sonata provides 16.4 cubic feet of space compared to the 10.7 cubic feet in the hybrid's trunk.
The base model comes with many standard features including keyless entry/ignition, dual-zone automatic climate control, full power accessories, Bluetooth, satellite radio, BlueLink telematics, and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player and USB/auxiliary audio input jacks. The optional Leather package upgrade adds leather upholstery, heated front and rear seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. The Ultimate package boasts everything from the Leather package plus a touchscreen navigation system and an upgraded nine-speaker Infinity sound system with HD radio.
Because of the six-speed automatic transmission, as opposed to the (CVT) or continuously variable transmission that often comes in hybrids, the driving experience remains similar to that of a non-hybrid. The model requires little adjustment on the part of the driver, save for fuel economy tactics.
The Sonata Hybrid is class competitive with fuel economy ratings of 35/40 mpg city/highway.
Safety ratings also compare well to cars in the class, which aim to please families.
Overall, most drivers will appreciate the high power and generally more agreeable driving experience for a hybrid.
Hyundai's Blue Link telematics system comes standard in the 2012 model, and the Limited trim gains a three-piece panoramic moonroof. The seven-inch touchscreen navigation system with HD Radio marks another new addition.
2018 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
Hybrid, Midsize, Sedan

2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
2015 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
2014 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

The carmaker provides a solid entry to the hybrid market with the 2011 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid.

Murphy's Restaurant, Bakery & Wine Shop in Atlanta
Murphy's is loved as one of Atlanta's best restaurants and has been for more than 35 years. Located in the heart of stylish Virginia Highland, Murphy's is the long-standing hub of neighborhood camaraderie and the choice destination for visitors seeking the best of the district's dining and nightlife.
Tom Murphy's acclaimed restaurant brings in the crowds with the perfect combination of upscale comfort food, gracious service, a cozy setting, and excellent value.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution in a 2016 review said...
"Considering the seasonality and execution coming from the kitchen; beverages — wine, in particular — that attempt to match the food in quality and offering; service that is both proficient and pleasant; and a space with so many nooks and crannies that it's hard to say which is the best seat in the house (it depends on why you're there), when I take a seat at Murphy's I am getting a lot for a reasonable price, and far better than any other "neighborhood" restaurant I know. Like I said, I want to move in."
Murphy's Food
Our award-winning chefs create American contemporary comfort food that focuses on fresh, local ingredients. The dinner menu includes classic patron favorites like shrimp and grits and braised beef brisket as well as seasonal interpretations and the daily catch.
Atlanta's Best Weekend Brunch
Weekend brunch at Murphy's is a must-do, featuring Eggs T. Murphy, Crab Cake Benedict, and Chilaquiles. See our complete brunch menu.
Weekday Lunch
Monday thru Friday starting at 11 a.m., Murphy's serves a fabulous lunch menu featuring entrees, salads, sandwiches, and small plates.
Wine Shop & Bakery
As well as an excellent restaurant, Murphy's is also a bakery and wine shop. Our pastry chef creates scrumptious desserts such as the Bonzo Cake and Tollhouse Pie as well as special orders tailored specifically for your event. The wine program includes weekly themed wine tastings on Tuesday nights, an on-site retail wine shop, and exclusive wine dinners with prestigious winemakers.

It was yet another spectacular day in Lake Nahuel Huapi for the Kitesurf World Cup Bariloche 2010. The wind was yet again in full force this morning at the mandatory skippers meeting.
Freestylers took the back seat today for most of the day and were released in the early afternoon due to the weather conditions which were more favorable for the racers.
Race director, Erik Troostheide rushed to re-arrange and set the racing course for today. A total of four races were completed under sunny blue skies and moderate winds. Racers were out on 10m kites and seemed to be enjoying themselves despite the brisk wind and the frigid water.
A large number of racers tangled during the start of the first race of the day causing many problems. A rescue boat was on the scene soon after the entanglement catastrophe and rescued a few riders floating in the cold water. Three or four riders were able to get their kites back up in the air, regaining composure and followed through with the race.
German rider, Dirk Hanel (North, GER) took advantage of this mess lead most of the race and was able to remain in the lead finishing in first place. Hanel has been struggling in previous races but managed to earn his best results in a series of races.
California sunny boy John Heineken (Ozone, USA) had complications in the first race due to the entanglement catastrophe however managed to shake the stress away and finished first in the last three consecutive races of the day with a huge marginal lead over all the other competitors.
Julien Kerneur (Takoon, FRA) has been speeding his way across the finish line and managed to finish second in the first two races of the day and third in the last two races. Olivier Dansin (North, FRA) has also been riding strong, managing to keep up with his strategic tactics earning him third place in the first two races of the day followed by second place in the last two races.
In the women's racing division, it was a winning day for French rider Caroline Adrien (Cabrinha, FRA). Adrien suffered from the tangles in the first race of the day finishing third, however managed to finish first in the following three consecutive races.
Adrien is well in the lead of the women's racing division here in Bariloche finishing first in 5 out of 6 races. Brazilian rider Nayara Licarinoo (North, BRA) did not let the cold water slow her down finishing second in the last three consecutive races while Kari Schibevaag (Ozone, NOR) managed to take first place in the first race, third place in the following two consecutive races and fourth in the final race.
Melissa Gil (Cabrinha, CRC) had a great first race today taking second place however struggled to find the finish line marker in the following races.
Tomorrow's wind forecast is looking promising yet again. The mandatory skippers meeting is scheduled for 10:00am with a first possible start of 10:30am for the continuation of the freestyle double eliminations.

Early Exposure to the Nation's Top 30
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – On the heels of their first national ranking since 2005, the Yale women's cross country team will travel to the Midwest on Friday to compete in the fourth annual Wisconsin Adidas Invitational, a competitive meet that will draw 20 of the top 30 teams in the nation. 2012 marks the first year that the Bulldogs will compete in the invitational, hosted by the University of Wisconsin.
The Bulldogs will test their mettle against the best teams in the country on Friday, and try to improve on their national ranking in the process. The Wisconsin Adidas Invitational will be their only chance to compete against such a deep field before entering the championship season, which begins with the Ivy League Heptagonal Championships on Oct. 27. This year marks a first for the team, in that Yale does not usually enter such competitive meets until much later in the season at NCAA Regionals. By exposing her athletes to the rest of the top 30 this early in the year, coach Amy Gosztyla will try to get them ready for those championships where a lot more is at stake.
A mix of upperclassmen and underclassmen will represent Yale on Friday. Junior Millie Chapman, junior Liana Epstein and senior captain Nihal Kayali have all previously placed first on the team for the Bulldogs, and will vie for that opportunity again at Wisconsin. They will be joined by sophomore Kira Garry, senior Caitlin Hudson, senior Elizabeth Marvin and freshman Emily Stark, who have also been strong contributors throughout the season so far.
Among the teams competing are No. 2 Arizona, No. 3 Washington, No. 5 Iowa State and No. 7 Stanford. Strong contingents from the Ivy League (Brown, No. 9 Cornell, No. 23 Columbia, Dartmouth, Harvard and Princeton) and the NCAA Northeast region (No. 21 Boston College, Connecticut, Iona, No. 28 Providence, Syracuse and No. 24 Villanova) will also be present.
The women's championship 6k race will start at noon, with the B 6k starting at 1:20 p.m. on Friday. The meet website, with course map and more information, is at http://www.uwbadgers.com/sports/m-xc/adidas-Invitational-2012.html. Results will be posted on the meet website and at www.yalebulldogs.com.

Each section of writing a book offers its unique challenges. The beginning it's all about hooking the reader and keeping them. The ending is about tying all that work into a kickass conclusion and selling your next book with your awesomeness. But in between those two sections is that often flabby middle. This is typically where we lose our way, get stuck, go down rabbit holes, and kind of meander until we get to the "good stuff" closer to the ending. And it can absolutely kill a book. You don't want your reader putting the book down and forgetting to come back to it because your middle was saggy and unfocused. So what can you do?
Ultimately, the sagging middle is about pacing. In the beginning of our book, we're usually very aware of pacing--don't info dump, jump right in (en medias res), hook your reader immediately. But then when we hit that second act, we often forget all those components and start shoving everything in that we really wanted to put in the first act, but didn't because of the pacing "rules". If you do that, however, you're going to drag your middle down.
I'm sure you've heard this before, but every page should have conflict on it, every darn one. And that includes those in the middle. And I know many of us can think of books we've read that this is not the case, where the pacing was more languid and subtle and were still great books--but that is the exception, not the rule.
Author Anne Mimi suggests that those books with the slower pacing often fall into one of the following categories:
1. The book is by an already established author who can get away with more.
2. The author is dead.
3. The agent picked up the author over ten years ago or the book was published over ten years ago.
4. The book was first published outside the U.S. (Brits are apparently more patient with pacing).
5. The book is non-fiction.
So, in other words, to give our books the best chance, we need to recognize that we live in a fast-paced, short attention-spanned, movie/internet/iphone/immediate gratification culture. So even if you manage to hook your reader with a terrific beginning, it doesn't mean the person won't put your book down when things slow in the middle. You have to make them want to turn every page (and this doesn't mean you need explosions and car chases in each chapter). And every chapter should end with a hook that leaves them wanting more. If you can't hook the chapter end, then the scene probably needs better pacing and conflict.
So what happens when you realize your middle is, in fact, drooping? First, you may want to look at why this could be the case.
Julie Moffett lists the following common culprits for the problem.
1. You revealed too much in the first part of the book, whether that be about your characters or the plot
2. Secondary or subplots have knocked you off course or run away with the story
3. The conflict (internal/external/sexual) is nonexistent or weak or there is no real action
4. You don't know what comes next so you're meandering around aimlessly
5. The story is boring you or you realize you have major plot problems that are making the story illogical or unrealistic
Alright, so once you pick out why you're middle is dragging, what are some things you can do?
Camy Tang offers these suggestions:
1. Strive for constant change with increasing tension/difficulty--Picture your character driving down a race track, it can't be a smooth, straight road ahead. Throw a speed bump in her way, then when she deals with that, put something in front of her that is even more difficult to manage (a herd of cows perhaps), and just when she's maneuvered around the bovine, have the wheels fall off the car.
2. Give the character new information in small pieces--a hint there, a clue here, a fleeting expression across her friend's face that makes the MC wonder if the friend's being honest, etc. And make getting those clues hard fought. Don't just have the clues fall in their lap, make them work for it. Give your reader just enough to want more, but also let them feel like he/she is closer to figuring out what's going to happen.
3. Keep your character's eyes on the prize--You cannot lose sight of your characters' goals. Every scene they enter needs to be striving toward whatever goal they are seeking. Your characters should enter each scene with a purpose--what are they trying to accomplish in this particular scene?
4. Don't be repetitive--Do not have scenes rehash old information. Each scene needs to add something new. And this also goes for having scenes that "feel" too similar in setting, content, tone, etc. If your hero and heroine are always having "let's figure out this mystery" conversations over a meal, your reader is going to get bored. Change it up.
And one last tip from author Stacia Kane:
End your middle (or second act) with a bang.
At the conclusion of the middle, the reader should be unsure of what's going to happen and if they are going to get an ending they want. Pay attention when reading books, this "end of the middle" or black moment is usually easy to pick out. In romance, this is often when the characters have a sex scene (truly ending with a bang, *snort*) that makes things worse, or the bad guy in a thriller looks like he's going to elude your hero. Basically, the worst thing that could happen--happens.
Alright, I hope now you can dive into those middles and make them svelte and strong. Now if these tips would only help with my other sagging middle--the one from all that eggnog and pecan pie.
So are you overwhelmed at the thought of conflict on every page (like I am)? Do you have trouble getting each chapter to end on a hook? Which books have you read that have been slow-paced but worked--do they fit those criteria above?

Ten years of continuous growth and progress has led to our manifest: This is the way we approach dance, this is the way we want to show dance.
The last three triple programs Impressionism and Re: Baroque have been highly acclaimed and the Göteborg Opera Ballet and Orchestra have received high praise. Now we continue our effort to attract and excite the audience with three new works by three choreographers, Nacho Duato, William Forsythe and Javier De Frutos. The music ranges from Bach to Elvis and the performance is emotional, technical and physical. It is a night for those of you who love dance and those of you who don't yet know that you do.
Last spring the Göteborg Opera successfully gave one ballet performance for school children. We would like to continue to show dance to young adults, and therefore the ballet Manifesto will be given as a school performance Thursday 14 October at 12:00 pm (noon).
Ticket prices: Sek 45.00. Book tickets at our group ticket office via email, email@example.com, or call +46-31-10 81 00, weekdays 9:00 am - 4:00 pm.

The First Cut
2012-01-16 - This weekend at the eth0 winter event, we hooked up the laos laser controller board to the lasercutter and were able to cut our first tests. It went smoothly, and we are now installing the cutter in the space and working to extend the software.
The lasercutter is initially funded in large part by two of our not-entirely-broke members, with additional donations from the HXX Foundation] and several other members. The lacercutter will be available to members and non-members alike for a small hourly fee to get the lenders their money (at least partly) back. The cutter needs a few final adjustments, but thanks to the [Laos laser] project it is already very easy to send your design to the cutter through a CUPS driver.
With acquiring the cutter, we can now implement a new currency: trollcoins. Small troll-face shaped coins will represent a value that is slightly proportional to the cost of making one such coin. The idea is that it will become ever cheaper to make these coins, resulting in hyper-deflation. We have heard this is essential for modern currency systems.

Is your situation more than the geeks at your local electronic discount chain can handle? You want the individualized customer support that a very small company like MyJC can offer.

I believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross to save me from the penalty of my sin and I want my whole life to reflect that - including the name of my company.

Madison County, Iowa - Conservation
The Madison County Conservation Board welcomes you to the County of historic
Covered Bridges, densely wooded river valleys, majestic limestone bluffs and
gently rolling grasslands. The Madison County Conservation Board is responsible
for managing 13 County Parks that are located primarily in rural areas
throughout Madison County, Iowa.
Madison County is teaming with wildlife and richly blessed with natural
resources. Four unique river systems meander through the County from west to
east - North River, Middle River, Grand River and Clanton Creek. Catfish. Iowa's
most popular game fish, are readily caught in the rivers, not to mention the
excellent pan fishing to be found in the numerous small reservoirs and hundreds
of small privately owned farm ponds. The quality of deer, turkey, pheasant and
other upland game hunting in Madison County is second to none. The majority of
park land managed by the Conservation Board is designated as natural resource
areas (open to hunting), which remain largely undeveloped to protect the
integrity and quality of the woodlands, prairie, rivers, wetlands and wildlife
found within the park boundaries.
Recreational opportunities abound. Individual park development varies from full
utility camping and shelter facilities to undeveloped natural areas. Some of our
recreational opportunities include, fishing, camping, hiking, hunting,
cross-country skiing, and seasonal environmental education programs available
for all ages. Handicapped accessible facilities are provided in nearly every
Historic resources include the birthplace of John Wayne, the Madison County
Historical Complex and six Covered Bridge - yes, we are the home of the famous

include, but not limited to, environmental education programming, private
land-owner assistance and consultation for habitat improvement projects,
timber-stand improvement plans, guidance to cost-share assisted land management
Madison County is located in south-central Iowa. Our centralized County seat
town of Winterset is located approximately 40 miles southwest of Des Moines with
easiest access to all our public areas and historic features gained from either
Interstate 80 that borders us on the north or Interstate 35 that borders us on
the east. Madison County is also served by east/west State Highway 92 and
north/south U.S. Highway 169 which conveniently meet at a crossroads in

View/Download TTU game notes vs. JSU (PDF)
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- If the Golden Eagles relish the role of spoiler, this weekend is the perfect recipe -- Tennessee Tech can wrap up the 2010 regular season by upsetting No. 4 Jacksonville State on Saturday and costing the Gamecocks the Ohio Valley Conference title.
It's quite a challenge for coach Watson Brown's team, which has lost two straight despite putting up its largest offensive numbers of the season including 554 yards last week against Eastern Kentucky, the most in Brown's four seasons in Cookeville.
A more pressing challenge for Tech is trying to fill holes in the lineup caused by a rash of late-season injuries. Of the 22 starting positions, Tech has enjoyed the same starter all season in just 12 spots and had to make adjustments at 10 positions.
The game against Jacksonville State, which is the OVC TV Game of the Week on Wazoo, will mark the final contest in the careers of 11 Golden Eagle seniors who will be recognized in pregame ceremonies.
Last week Tech dropped a 42-29 contest to Eastern Kentucky in Tucker Stadium, leaving the Golden Eagles with a 4-6 overall record and eliminating their chance at a winning mark in 2010.
Jacksonville State, meanwhile, pulled out a last-minute, 29-27 victory over Southeast Missouri. With that win, the Gamecocks put themselves into a position to clinch a share of the OVC title and the league's automatic invitation to the FCS playoffs by beating Tech.
Records in 2010:
Tennessee Tech is 4-6 overall / 3-4 Ohio Valley Conference
Jacksonville State is 9-1 overall / 6-1 Ohio Valley Conference
Series Record: JSU leads the series, 9-4
First Meeting: 1938
Last Meeting: JSU 55, Tech 28 (Nov. 14, 2009)
Current Streak: JSU has won last five

48 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE -- Tennessee Tech will bid farewell Saturday to 11 seniors on the 2010 roster. who represent a combined 48 years on the Golden Eagle roster. Seven of the 11 are fifth-year seniors and two more are in their fourth season as Golden Eagles. Tech's 2010 seniors (years on TTU roster):
* Receiver Colin Allen (5)
* Quarterback Cass Barnes (4)
* Runningback Jocques Crawford (2)
* Rover Dustin Dillehay (5)
* Defensive tackle Justin Hilliard (5)
* Punter Jason Lennartz (3)
* Cornerback Corbin Miles (5)
* Defensive tackle Dedrick Miley (5)
* Linebacker Kelechi Ordu (5)
* Receiver Henry Sailes (4)
* Defensive end Charlie Seivers (5)
FIVE ARE CAPTAINS -- For the second year, the team has elected captains prior to the season. The Golden Eagles have chosen four defensive players and one from the offense, all seniors. The team captains are DT Dedrick Miley, ROV Dustin Dillehay, LB Kelechi Ordu, DE Charlie Seivers and RB Henry Sailes.
BARNES STORMING -- Senior quarterback Cass Barnes has started the last two games in place of injured Tre Lamb, and last week against Eastern Kentucky he accounted for a season-high 341 yards of total offense. Barnes rushed 16 times for 68 yards and passed for a career-high 273 yards, going 18-for-30 without an interception. In fact, he caught one of his own passes (a ball that was batted back to him) and ran it two yards for a first down. He was the first Tech quarterback to catch his own pass since Andre Caballero, and the third to do so since 1982 (Mark Powers). Barnes has topped the 200-yard mark in passing in each of his two starts this season, throwing for 203 yards at Murray State.
SCHOOL RECORD -- Tim Benford has tied the school's single-season record with 10 touchdown catches in 2010. The mark was first set in 2002 by Derek Lee and tied in 2007 by Larry Shipp. Benford also tied the record in 2008 with 10 touchdown catches.
CHART CLIMBING -- Tim Benford is now fourth in school history in both receptions (143) and receiving yards (2,060). He needs 65 yards to catch Walter Hill in third place for career yardage. He could climb as high as second in receptions before his junior season is complete, needing three to tie for third place and five more receptions to catch Walter Hill (148) in second place.
1,000 YARD SPOT -- Junior Dontey Gay and senior Jocques Crawford have split time at the "B" runningback position and have combined to hit the 1,000-yard mark -- EXACTLY. Crawford has 571 rushing yards and Gay has rushed for 429 yards, making it 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns on 167 attempts. Combined they would rank second in the OVC in rushing yards (1,000), third in yards per game (100.0) and third in yards per carry (6.0).
STRETCHING OUT -- Senior Colin Allen stretched out to make one of the most amazing catches of the season last week against Eastern Kentucky, hauling in a pass from Cass Barnes for 34 yards. He had three catches for 77 yards in the game. This season, Allen ranks third on the team with 13 receptions, and is second on the team in receiving yards with 230. In fact, among Tech receivers with more than one catch this year, Allen ranks first on the team in yards per catch with 17.7. For his Tech career, Allen has 51 catches for 883 yards.
CENTURY MARK -- Senior Jocques Crawford posted his second 100-yard rushing game of the season when he gained 128 yards on just 11 carries last week against Eastern Kentucky, average of 11.6 yards per carry. His effort included a 59-yard romp, the team's longest rush of the year. Crawford rushed for 127 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries in Tech's win over Eastern Illinois. He leads Tech with 571 rushing yards in 104 carries, a season average of 57.1 yards per game and 5.5 yards per carry.
CAREER LEADERS - Seven Golden Eagle defenders have topped 100 in career tackles and more players have 90 or more stops. Seniors Kelechi Ordu (175) and Dustin Dillehay (174) are the career leaders in tackles, with junior Jake McIntosh (162) just behind.

Dustin Dillehay has 6.8 tackles per game to rank 13th, while Jake McIntosh ranks 20th with 6.0 per game.
CAREER EFFORT - Senior Justin Hilliard made a career-best nine tackles last week against Eastern Kentucky. His previous career-best was five stops at Western Michigan in 2008. Hilliard ranks first among Tech's defensive linemen with 37 tackles this season.
TACKLES FOR LOSS -- Justin Hilliard has 4.5 tackles-for-loss this season, giving him 18 for his career which is tops among all active players. Dwight Evans had two TFL against EKU and ranks second on the team with 16.5 career tackles-for-loss. Evans has 10.0 this season to rank first on the team and eighth in the OVC.

Work continues in making solid biofuels an internationally traded commodity. The American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE) recently met with the International Organization for Standardization to develop standards that would ensure the quality and safe handling of solid and pelletized biofuels, according to a news release ASABE issued this week.
Scott Cedarquist, ASABE director of standards, says the work is being spurred by the needs of a rapidly expanding industry. "In 2007 the ISO organized a technical committee to develop standards for solid biofuels," Cedarquist says. "At the fifth and most recent meeting of the committee, it was reported that international participation had grown to 36 countries from five continents."
A summary of the standard can be found here.
Cedarquist says the standards are being pursued to facilitate international trade. "The main interest in the U.S. has been from the wood pellet industry, but the standards cover woody and non-woody solid biofuels as well," Cedarquist says in an interview yesterday with Farm Industry News. "This would be pellets and briquettes as well as wood chips and firewood. In the U.S. the main focus is on home heating appliances. In Europe it is also commercial and industrial users."
The standards will lay the groundwork for other types of biomass as well, Cedarquist adds. "This may not directly have a link to Midwest farmers presently," he says. "But energy crops are an opportunity for growers – whether the crop is for liquid or solid biofuel at the end of the day."
Wood Master, Red Lake Falls, MN, is one company recently in the news for its manufacture of biomass furnaces. The furnaces, showcased this month on a tour organized by Clean Energy Resource Teams, use cord wood and biomass pellets to produce heat.

Laney Boggs in Vancouver
Am not ashamed to say I loved She's All That. Totally just a teen movie and still… somehow subversively funny. And of course there's Rachael Leigh Cook – remember she played "Joey" in the film adaptation of Dawson's Creek…ON Dawson's Creek? Sigh. Memories.
After Laney Boggs, Rachael was tapped as one to watch. Perhaps it was association with Tara Reid's ghetto skank in Josie and the Pussycats that tempered the hype but it's been a few years and Rachael's career is now on a decidedly different direction, no longer aiming for the MTV fanbase.
She's worked steadily, will appear in several independent films, reportedly even a project with the incomparable William H Macy, and is educating young girls about self esteem, breaking down Hollywood illusions, not afraid to expose even parts of her own past to illustrate the dangers of fame and celebrity.
Dove approached her to host a series of workshops and Rachael enthusiastically accepted. She kicked off Dove's Global Workshop Day (official start is February 29th) on Monday in Vancouver, speaking to a group of Grade 8 girls at York House (photo attached), encouraging healthy self image exercises and focusing on more than just appearances.
Interestingly enough, she showed the kids an photograph of herself – check it out: the real Rachael is on the left, the photoshopped Rachael is on the right. As you can see, her abs lookED great. Then they brushed out the definition leaving… nothing.
Word is she was super sweet and super sincere. How refreshing.

Thursday's Child Front-of-House Still
As a follow-up to my previous post, here, a bit scuffed and yellowed, is a surprising front-of-house still — a British lobby card — for Thursday's Child (1943) revealing the Frankenstein cameo. I wonder if patrons were confused, wondering what this posed shot of Kathleen O'Regan reacting to the iconic Monster had to do with this particular movie. Any concern about scary content was relieved by the "U" rating on the card, standing for "Universal", signifying all ages admitted and suitable for children.
Ironically, the very same year as The Monster's gag appearance in Thursday's Child, Universal Pictures' 1935 Bride of Frankenstein was re-released in the UK with a dreaded "H" certificate, indicating "horror", alerting parents and strictly limiting admission to 16 year-olds and over. Starting in 1932, the "H" cert was slapped on any horror film that wasn't banned outright. The "H" was replaced by the "X" certificate in 1951. The equivalent today is the "18" certificate.
The British classification system, first introduced in 1912, has been revised through the years, with horror, in particular, being re-evaluated as the shock effect of older films attenuates. Classic horror that rated an "H" in the Thirties are routinely reclassified as "15" today.

One more reason to see this film, which I became curious about after reading the director's autobiography. He later developed Queen of Spades but was unjustly fired during filming: Thorold Dickinson took over and made a masterpiece and also got all the credit.

Buy Safflower with Quality Assurance from Starwest Botanicals
At Starwest, we are very particular about the herbs and spices we offer - which is when you get bulk Safflower from Starwest, you know you are getting the best product possible.
Normally grown for its oil, Dried Safflower can be used in recipes in place of saffron as a much less expensive substitute (it is also known as "false saffron"). Bird lovers can also add the seed to their feeders, as the taste is unpalatable to squirrels and other small rodents.
You can buy bulk Safflower Oil to use as a more environmentally-friendly alternative to linseed oil for use in paints as well.
Safflower is among the oldest domesticated crops, dating back to Egypt's Twelfth Dynasty 3,800 - 4,000 years ago. Today, most of the world's safflower is grown in the U.S., Mexico and India.
Warning: Not to be used during pregnancy. Not for use in patients with bleeding disorders, hemorrhagic diseases or peptic ulcers.
