Russian cinema revives Christmas comedies
Russian producer and director Timur Bekmambetov, best known for shooting several films in Hollywood including the Russian-American action crime thriller Wanted, is aiming to revive the genre of so-called Christmas comedies that were very popular among Russians during the time of the Soviet Union.
Bekmambetov's trilogy called Elki has won the support of leading Russian stand-up comedians. So far it's been warmly received by the audience and demonstrated good box office. The first two films, released in 2010 and 2011 on the eve of New Year celebrations, collected US$49 million on a total budget of US$11 million.
In order to increase attention for the third part of the series, due for release on Dec. 26, 2014, its directors conducted a tour of 11 Russian cities, offering a chance for anybody who wants to become a part of the movie's crowd scenes. Pundits feel it is likely that this move will have a positive impact on the film's box office.
"We, the filmmakers, all live in Moscow and pay very little attention to our audience, while as we know more than 70% of our viewers—especially of the Elki movies—live in the provincial towns," Bekmambetov observed.
It is interesting that the different Russian cities have been represented in the old Russian Christmas comedies—for example, in The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Banya, the plot is built around the fact that the main characters have two absolutely identical addresses, but in different cities, Moscow and St. Petersburg.
A Ban on Alcohol Consumption in Movies?
Nikolai Gerasimenko, first deputy chairman of the Duma Committee on Health, called on lawmakers to ban scenes of alcohol consumption in Russian films, claiming that these depictions are harmful to children. According to the official, many Russian films use alcohol drinking as an important part of the plot; he cited in particular the recent release The Geographer Drunk Away the Globe.
"Children have already started drinking at age 11, and so we have to restrict the showing of…alcohol consumption in cinema and television," Gerasimenko declared.
"Just think about how it shows our society: interns drink, police drink and everyone else drinks even during working hours. And this way we create an image that drinking is fine."
He continued, "For example, we already consider as normal the film The Geographer Drunk Away the Globe, where the teacher is drinking with his students. In Peculiarities of National Hunting and Peculiarities of National Fishing, the characters are drinking several boxes of vodka. We should do something about this."
The deputy chairman claimed that producers of alcohol and cigarettes spend a lot of money in the media and movies to finance such scenes and create among the population "the illusion that all our citizens are extremely fond of drink and it is in fact a distinctive feature of our nation."
Gerasimenko believes that business should bear the social responsibility and that limited restrictions will not resolve the problem. He feels it is necessary to completely prohibit the promotion of the use of alcoholic beverages in movies.
The premiere of The Geographer Drunk Away the Globe, with Konstantin Khabensky in the title role, was held in June at the Russian festival Kinotavr, where the movie won the main prize. The film's protagonist, Permian geography teacher Victor Sluzhkin, is a charming loser and an alcoholic who takes his class on a camping trip. In November, the film also won the main prize of the festival of Russian cinema in Honfleur Normandy in northwestern France.
Russia Readies First 3D Horror Film
According to Russian experts, one of the most potentially successful Russian films in 2014 may be Wii, a horror film based on the novel by Russian writer Nikolai Gogol. This is the first horror movie in the post-Soviet Union era shot in 3D.
Director Oleg Stepchenko has been preparing Wii for eight years. Now the premiere is planned for January 2014. The shooting was done in the Czech Republic, on the same soundstages where The Chronicles of Narnia and The Brothers Grimm were filmed. The elaborate sound design is the creation of one of the top sound mixers in Hollywood, Oscar-winner Bob Beemer.
The plot of the film centers on English traveler Jonathan Green (Jason Flemyng), who mounts an expedition to the Ukraine. Passing Transylvania and breaking through the Carpathian Mountains, he finds himself in a lost village of impenetrable forests. The people living there are not like any the famed traveler has met before. Surrounded by a deep moat, they seek to protect themselves from evil spirits and a mystic creature called Wii.

Friday, March 16, 2012 - Jan Mikulec and Jan Sadecky - FULL CONTACT
Jan Mikulec and Jan Sadecky - FULL CONTACT
Jan Sadecky and Jan Mikulec are two really handsome guys, and both are very well built. Jan M is a newcomer and I was very keen to get him on guy-guy action, so we paired him with Jan Sadecky. They start off by kissing, as they kneel, facing each other. Then we see their hands on each others' crotches. As they kiss they are both very hard in their undies. Jan S pushes his down and his massive cock flops out. Jan M takes hold of it and start to wank it as Jan S rubs his hand over his friends undies. Jan M's undies come down as well and his cock is rock hard too. Jan S takes hold of it to wank it as well. Jan M then stands and presents his cock for sucking. Jan S takes that cock in his mouth and begins to suck on it. He takes it deep in his mouth and suck it. Then he licks all along the shaft and balls before sucking more. His mouth is working all over that cock and Jan M begins to fuck it into Jan S' mouth. Jan M then lays on the bed, with his ass presented for rimming. Jan S licks at that hole, wetting it up nicely. Then, with Jan M on his knees, Jan S slides his huge cock deep into that ass. He really pumps that cock deep into Jan M's ass, and after a while changes position, to spoon, so we get a get view of his big dick deep in that hole. Another change of postion, with Jan M's leg in the air, the pounding of his ass continues. Jan M's cock is rock hard as his hole is being filled. Jan M is really taking that cock very well and soon he moves to sit on the cock and rides it nice and deep into his hole. Jan M wants to cum and moves into missionary position, wanking his cock and shooting a big, creamy load. Jan S kisses him and goes down on the spent cock to drain it completely. Then he wants to cum too, and lays back on the bed, with Jan M positioning himself so that he can suck that big cock and catch that cum in his mouth and on his face. Jan S soons shoots his load, over Jan M's face and he goes down on the cock again for a final suck. What a really great scene, with two really handsome guys.

Our Coming Soon Set Preview
Martin Sedivec is a newcomer who we were keen to do a duo with, so we paired him with the ever reliable Rado Princ. We first see Martin, sitting on a swivel chair, and he starts to run his hands over his body. Rado appears and immediately takes hold of Martin and begins kissing him. He starts to undo Martin's shirt as they continue kissing. Gradually both guys shirts are open and, very quickly Rado's jeans are too, with his big cock out, and in Martin's hand. Martin wanks on that big, fat cock as he kisses Rado. Rado also has his hand in Martin's jeans, working on his cock. Martin stands, as Rado jeans come down more. He kisses on Rado's nipples as he works his way down to that big cock. Then he begins sucking on it, taking it in his mouth, and licking up and down the shaft. He really enjoys licking the balls and cock and sucking on the head. Rado pulls him up again and kisses him as he pushes Martin's jeans down to release his cock too. As they continue to kiss Rado takes both cocks in his hand and wanks them together. But he wants to taste cock too, so Martin lays on the chair and makes his dick available. Rado takes it in his mouth. It is rock hard and fat as Rado's mouth sucks on it. Rado then swings the chair so that Martin's head is positioned to suck him again. They switch back and forth a few times, each sucking the other in turn. Then Martin kneels on the chair and presents his ass for Rado to rim. His tongue finds that hot pucker hole and laps at it, getting it nice and wet. Then his fingers start to work. First one goes into that tight hole, followed by a second. The fingers fuck Martin's hole, loosening it nicely. Then it is ready for cock and Rado slides his deep inside. He fucks Martin, really stretching his hole. Martin is pushing his ass back to make sure he gets as much cock as he can. Rado then sits on the chair and Martin climbs over him and sits down on his throbbing cock. As he bounces up and down on Rado's cock his own his hard and waving in the air. Martin then sits on the chair, with Rado fuckng him real deep, holding one of Martin's legs up to make sure he can get all the way in that ass. Martin wanks himself hard and fast as his ass is taking that big dick. Soon he cant hold back and shoots his load while Rado is fucking him. Rado continues fucking that ass, building himself up to cum. He is soon ready and Martin lays thru the chair mouth open and catches Rado's cum as he shoots it. Then he sucks on Rado's cock again to clean him off. What a lovely scene with lots of kissing and very good sex, from two great looking guys.

Today, in Prague, we had some wonderful short shirt sleeve weather. Aida and I went an sat in Kampa Park for about 3/4ths of an hour soaking in the sun. This, mind you, after four or five days of cold, wet weather.
This week I could attend only one shoot, a very nice ScreenTest. So, until I can replenish my stock of Backstage shoots, I decided to divide this on into two Parts. Today, I published Part One. You can watch it below or also on my Vlog at:
I'll publish Part Two on Tuesday. Hopefully, I'll be able to cover more shoots next week.
My recovery is slow but steady. However, there's still quite a lot of swelling. The doctor did say it would take another six weeks from last week for the swelling to go down. I just need to be a bit more patient.
We have a great line-up today, starting with Jan Mikulec with Jan Sadecky. Then we have Jan Mauer's erotic video and session stills shoots from Martin Kase and Rado Viker. Finally we also have a fully remastered scene from The Jan Dvorak Story with Jirka Kalvoda and Joachem von Festung.
Our Castings today are: Tomas Mezera, Matej Krab and David Tycka. All three look good, but I will choose Tomas as my pick.

Opinion: Lee Harvey Oswald and Cuba
WSJ's Mary Anastasia O'Grady explains the relationship that JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald had with the Cubans along with a trip he took to Mexico City in late September 1963 to try to secure a visa to Cuba. Photo: AP

Oh, how I love curling up on Friday nights with a big bowl of popcorn and my favorite horror films.
When it comes to politics, you never know what pork eating ghosts and tax cheat goblins are lurking about. Vampire moonbats, liberal creatures from outer space where no one can hear you scream.
There is not much to say about this recent short clip of MSNBC's Keith Olberman, yes chief god of planet Moonbat, calling the Tea Party activists "poor dumb manipulated bastards" on Thursday night's Countdown.
Poor Keith, with the news of lower than bottom feeder tank fish ratings and the Scott Brown win, this week has been awfully hard on the "Beaver".
Meanwhile at KoolAid Space Mountain sector Ohio, Major Barry, is back on Main Street whining to town hall attendees about right wingers who want to "scare the bugeezus out of you". He claims that the White House is "confining" and "It is not about me".
Oh Barry, don't be so modest. It has always been about YOU.
Finally we end our Friday night fright fest with the subject of the fiendish Dr. Arlen Specter (D-PA)
…instructing Michelle Bachman (R-MN) on the way he expects his bitches to act in his commanding presence.
Shiver!!! Sorry liberals, after tonight's viewings, I must sleep with the lights on and my thermostat at 72 degrees.

For many, Friday's mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., was cause to grieve, even for those far removed from the event.
For many, Friday's mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., was cause to grieve, even for those far removed from the event. But for local school officials, the Sandy Hook shooting that to date has claimed the lives of 20 students, 6 and 7 years old, and six adult employees at the school has also caused them to redouble and refocus efforts on school safety. Leavenworth Public Schools Superintendent Kelly Crane said the district sent communication to parents and staff offering condolences to those lost in Newtown and providing lists of resources and strategies for local families to guide discussions on the incident with their children. She said the district is preparing another similar piece of correspondence. Crane said the Leavenworth schools have to strike a balance between keeping families informed and ensuring that for security reasons the emergency plans keep a certain amount of confidentiality. "That's hard for parents to understand," she said. The second letter details the district's ongoing efforts to keep the schools safe. Amy Sloan is in charge the Leavenworth School District's emergency operations team. With both districtwide and building-level response teams and a plan developed alongisde local public safety officials with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Sloan said the district is continually testing and enhancing efforts to keep its students out of harm's way. "That has been in effect for six or seven years," she said. Students and building staff have regular drills to practice intruder lockdown procedures and staff train continually to find ways to improve the procedures already in place. One recent tabeltop exercise revolved around an armed relative of a district employee entering a building, mirroring the Newtown incident. Though that incident was tragic, Sloan said the district will look for lessons in the event. "We're going to review what they did and see how we can enhance that," she said. Randy Bagby, Lansing school superintendent, said the events of last week did highlight some ongoing efforts, like the work districtwide on crisis management training. "It's certainly put us all on a higher alert status," he said. On Friday and on Monday, Bagby said local law enforcement officials were in Lansing's schools, walking around as a sort of reassurance for the students and staff alike. That presence was temporary, Bagby said, though it's not the only thing that he said the district has done or will be doing. "I really want them to feel content," he said of parents and students, adding he told parents with concerns that they could take their children home if they felt they needed to. As a result of the recently approved bond issue, all of the district's buildings will have better controls over access. Xavier Catholic School has given its security a second look in the wake of the Newtown shooting. Barbara Fitzgerald, director of the Leavenworth Regional Catholic Schools, said she did a walk-through of Xavier Catholic School over the weekend. She said the school has a system in which visitors have to be buzzed in by school staff. But one thing that system is lacking is the ability for teachers to lock their classroom doors if the school was placed on lockdown. "They can't do that from the inside," she said. So school officials will be placing deadbolts on classroom doors at the Xavier campus on Muncie Road as well as the preschool building. She said this change eventually will be extended to Immaculata High School. Those lessons come at a cost, Bagby said, one that visibly affects local officials even when they happen half a nation away. "There isn't a child that I look at today that doesn't make me wonder and think," he said.

Legends of the Star – Deion Sanders
Deion Sanders was and still is one of the most colorful and most polarizing players in sports. He started out his career in 1988 when he was drafted by New York Yankees. He was then drafted the following year by the Atlanta Falcons with the fifth overall pick in the 1989 NFL Draft. He showed up wearing thousands of dollars of diamonds and gold including a flashy silk shirt embroidered with the words "Prime Time." The name stuck with him.
Sanders had a very successful baseball career and went on to have an even better football career. He became a rare two sport star who made headlines with his play as well as his very controversial comments. He was loved and hated by millions of fans across the country.
For his first five seasons in the NFL, Deion Sanders played for the Atlanta Falcons and was the best cornerback in the league and one of the best return specialists in NFL history. He was as dynamic a player as there ever was in the game. He then signed a one-year deal with San Francisco, and became the NFL Defensive Player of the Year. His four tackles and interception helped the 49ers beat San Diego 49-26 in Super Bowl XXIX.
Soon after that, in 1995, Sanders signed a huge contract to play with the Dallas Cowboys. He was to get a $13 million dollar signing bonus, but because Jerry Jones was superstitious, he received $12,999,999.99, a penny less.His presence at cornerback helped Dallas win the Super Bowl that season. In that game, he became the only player in NFL history to catch a pass and make an interception in the Super Bowl. In 1996, Sanders started all 16 games at cornerback and eight at wide receiver to become the first two-way NFL player in 34 years. But make no mistake, with eight Pro Bowl selections as a cornerback, defense is where Sanders really shined.
During his 14-year NFL career, Deion Sanders was a perennial All-Pro and one of the most feared pass defenders to ever play the game. He is the only player to have appeared in a Super Bowl and a World Series.

It was moved to the bee removal section because it was about removing bees.
Well I was told once that you post them there till they are done as many of the other guys do and they stay up for days on end. Then when they are done they get moved to up in the removal section. This is what I have read and was told. But yet I always see them on the other board.

About the Book
About the Creator
Daniël Lousbergh, M.D. (°1951 – Belgium) works as a general practitioner. He has been photographing since 1958. In 1998 he joined the international photo group Alfa and started to concentrate on black and white photography. In his work, one can find specific elements that constitute his signature style. His portraits of people all over the world testify of his human sympathy and deep respect for his subject. He photographs mainly in black and white to avoid the distraction of colour and to highlight his subjects' character. Getting close to all kinds of people, through his lense and through his conversation (sometimes merely non-verbal, but always with a sense of humour) improves him incredibly as a person. That's why his Hasselblad, Leica or Nikon will never be too heavy, even when climbing mountains or marching the desert.

Our Fitness Blog
How to Stick with Your Fitness Routine
It is a proven fact that exercising can make us look and feel better. It can make us happier and healthier. So, why are we not exercising? It should be easy to start and stick to a fitness routine, but so many of us find excuses to quit or never get started at all. Why do we find it so easy to deny ourselves the many benefits of exercising, and how can we overcome the many excuses and reasons we have for avoiding our fitness routines? It may be easier than any of us are thinking. So, it is time to get off the couch and get moving.
Be yourself
There are many different fitness activities out there, and many are just fads that everyone wants to join because they are popular. You need to remember it is your fitness routine. It is up to you to choose an activity that you find enjoyable. If your friends like yoga and you tried it and found it was not for you, then choose something else. You should not pick a fitness routine because it is popular or your friends like it. You want to pick one that interests you and gets you excited. It could be yoga, swimming, running or hiking, but whatever it is, you need to go out there and do it consistently to get the best results.
Take responsibility
It is up to you and only you to stick with your fitness routine. You need to take responsibility for your actions. If you are not getting the results you want from your fitness routine, you should not automatically give up on it but find a way to adapt it to achieve the results you want. It is up to you to keep track of how your fitness routine is working and know when you need to switch it up a bit. It is also up to you to decide if you need help in your routine. You can join a gym, hire a personal trainer or enlist the help of family and friends. It can be easier for some of us to stick to our fitness routine if we have the help of others, and it is up to us to know if we are that type of person.
Get going
It is simple to think about starting a fitness routine, but it can be a whole different story for some of us when it is time to start moving. You need to establish a plan and stick to it. You should have a scheduled time to workout and make sure there are no readily available excuses during this time. Many find that keeping an exercise journal can be helpful. You can keep track of how often and how long you workout, and what types of exercises you did and your progress. It may be easier to see what you have achieved and how hard you have worked if you have it on paper. It can be a great tool for helping us take responsibility of our workouts and keep us on the correct path to our fitness success.
The best way to be successful in our fitness routines is to just do it. We have to get out there and find something we like and something that will work for us. It can be trial and error in the beginning, but as we continue to go and progress we will be able to find what works or does not work for us. It is our responsibility to find what will be successful for us.

Jonathan Trott reveals truth behind Ashes return
England batsman Jonathan Trott said mental 'burnout' was behind his sudden withdrawal from England's Ashes tour of Australia and he is now eager to resume his international career.
Trott left the tour after England were thrashed in the first Test in November with what was reported to be a "stress-related" illness, but the South Africa-born 32-year-old has refuted suggestions he was suffering with depression.
"People come up to you and say, 'it's good to see you're out and about' and I'm like, 'I'm not crazy I was just burnt out!'," Trott said in an interview to be aired by Sky Sports on Sunday.

'I had nothing left in the tank or the battery - mentally and emotionally pretty drained'
Trott's second-innings dismissal by Mitchell Johnson at the Gabba was described by Australian batsman David Warner as 'weak', prompting then England coach Andy Flower to accuse the hosts of being disrespectful to the ailing batsman.
"It's pretty difficult to put into words the emotions to walk away from an Ashes tour - it's something I never thought I'd have to do and something I hope no cricketer has to do again," Trott said.
"It was the right decision no doubt, it was something that came about through no one else's fault other than the situation I found myself in wanting to do so well for England.
"I don't think there's anything else the ECB or the guys on tour could have done differently. I tried my hardest and ended up finding out myself I had nothing left to give.
"It was very difficult for me to operate close to 100 per cent or even 50 percent of what I was capable of.
"I remember day two or day three, it was a bit of a blur, I was getting headaches and all sorts of things and I wasn't eating properly towards the end and that's when the sleep started getting disruptive and emotionally that was probably when I was worst and it just boiled over.
"I had nothing left in the tank or the battery - mentally and emotionally pretty drained and had nothing left to give really."

'I should have been there going through the tough times'
Trott said he had felt guilty leaving his team mates to toil away for the rest of the series they lost 5-0.
"I'd experienced a lot of success with England and a lot of good times and not many bad times and seeing the guys struggling out there was pretty tough in that I should have been there going through the tough times," he said.
Trott is now looking forward to the start of the English domestic season with county side Warwickshire and is targeting a return to the international stage against Sri Lanka.
"I think as long as I'm feeling OK with myself and where my game's at I think playing international cricket is fine, it's not that much different," Trott said.
"There's obviously the scrutiny and everything but it's how I feel about my own game and how I feel going forward."

It is at the same time the island port. Despite of the fact that it suffered significant damage after the 1953 earthquakes, it preserves many of the magnificent elements of the past.
What to see in Zante:
The Solomos Square surrounded by buildings with characteristic traditional architectural features of the island, arch-shaped windows and arcades. The bust of D. Solomos national poet of Greece dominates in the centre. Here you can also find the Public Library (with 55.000 volumes), the Post-Byzantine Museum of Zante exhibiting treasures such as statues trimmed with gold, icons and art woodcuts.

|Accepting the award. Photo credit: Michael Donner
It was especially meaningful to come from the California Psychology Association. The only voice for California's 18,000 licensed psychologists, the CPA tirelessly advocates for the profession as well as for the mental health needs of the general public in California.
For those of you who only know me as a blogger and/or a forensic psychology practitioner, I conducted pioneering research in the late 1990s into the motivations of hate crime perpetrators. I later extended that work to group rape, likening both forms of violence to cultural theater in which the actors publicly demonstrate masculinity, with their victims as dramatic props. (I'm excited about a forthcoming chapter in a cutting-edge text on multiple-perpetrator rape, due out next year.) I have also conducted historical research and published on the ethics of forensic diagnosis, and especially the contested sexual paraphilia of "hebephilia." More information on my research is available on my website and on Wikipedia.
The location of the awards ceremony could not have been more idyllic -- the gorgeous Monterey coast on a balmy weekend. The 270-degree view of the Monterey Bay and the surrounding hills from the 10th floor of the Marriott Hotel was breathtaking; unfortunately, a photo just can't capture it.
|CPA President Craig Lareau presents award.

I especially enjoyed a presentation by Keely Kolmes of San Francisco and Heather Wittenberg of Maui designed to help psychologists step up their online presence. For anyone interested, Dr. Kolmes has some nice resources (HERE) for psychologists on the ethics of social media and on managing one's online reputation.
By the way, if you practice in California and don't belong to the CPA, I encourage you to join. The reconfigured CPA has a forward-looking leadership team headed by the dynamic Jo Linder-Crow and is doing essential advocacy work on behalf of psychologists and the public. It appears to have defeated (at least for the time being) an effort to axe our regulatory agency, the Board of Psychology, which would have left psychologists at the mercy of other professions. It's working hard to promote parity for mental health consumers. And it's tangibly supporting legislators who will lobby for progressive causes, for example prisoner rehabilitation instead of endless warehousing. So do your share, whether it's just paying dues or volunteering, so that all of the heavy lifting does not fall on just a few shoulders.
|Sea Otter, Monterey Bay
And now, sadly, it's back to the grindstone.

Phillies Sign Chad Gaudin
Right-hander Chad Gaudin has agreed to a minor league contract with the Phillies with an invitation to major league spring training, Senior Vice President & General Manager Ruben Amaro Jr. announced today.
Gaudin, 30, went 5-2 with a 3.06 ERA in 30 games (12 starts) last year for the San Francisco Giants, holding opposing hitters to a .227 batting average. He began the season with 18 relief appearances and posted a 2.05 ERA in those games before being moved to the starting rotation in June, where he stayed for the remainder of his year. His season ended in mid-August when he was placed on the disabled list with carpal tunnel syndrome.
Gaudin was originally selected by the Tampa Bay Rays in the 34th round of the 2001 draft. In 344 combined career games (87 starts), he has gone 45-44 with a 4.44 ERA for the Rays (2003-04), Toronto Blue Jays (2005), Oakland A's (2006-08; 2010), Chicago Cubs (2008), San Diego Padres (2009), New York Yankees (2009-10), Washington Nationals (2011), Miami Marlins (2013) and Giants (2013).

South Korea's T-50 Golden Eagle family offers the global marketplace a set of high-end supersonic trainer and lightweight fighter aircraft.
13th Sep 2016
South Korea's T-50 Golden Eagle family offers the global marketplace a set of high-end supersonic trainer and lightweight fighter aircraft. They're hitting the international market at a good time: just as many of the world's jet training fleets are reaching ages of 30 years or more, and high-end fighters are pricing themselves out of reach for many countries.
Most recently, Thailand is increasing its defense budget and the speed of its procurement process to, among other things, procure a replacement for its aging L-39. The T-50 is one of three candidates.
The ROK's defense industry is advancing on all fronts these days. Its shipbuilding industry, one of the world's busiest, is beginning to turn out its own LHDs, and even high-end KDX-III AEGIS destroyers. On the armored vehicle front, Korea's XK2 tank and K9/K10 self propelled howitzer are beginning to win export orders, and its XK-21/KNIFV amphibious infantry fighting vehicle may not be too far behind. All fill key market niches, promising performance at a comparatively inexpensive price. Now its aerospace industry is in flight abroad with the KT-1 turboprop basic trainer, complemented by the T-50 jet trainer, TA-50 LIFT advanced trainer & attack variant, and FA-50 lightweight fighter.
The TA-50 and FA-50 are especially attractive as lightweight export fighters, and the ROKAF's own F-5E/F Tiger II and F-4 Phantom fighters are more than due for replacement. The key question for the platform is whether it can find corresponding export sales.

BEVERLY HILLS, California (Reuters) - Hollywood producers injected drama into the race for Oscars on Sunday by choosing not one but two movies as their best films of the year, the space thriller "Gravity" and the slavery drama "12 Years a Slave".
It is the first time the Producers Guild of America has declared a tie in the 25-year history of its awards. The PGA has correctly chosen the eventual Academy Award winner for best picture for the last six years, including Iranian hostage drama "Argo" a year ago.
The PGA decision clashes with that of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG), which on Saturday chose the 1970s-set corruption caper "American Hustle" from director David O. Russell for its top prize, best film ensemble cast.
But SAG has a mixed record on foreshadowing the Oscar best picture with its ensemble cast award, correctly predicting the Academy Award in six of the last 10 years.
Nevertheless, after an intense week of awards, the Oscars are shaping up to be a three-way race between these films. "American Hustle", with its strong performance, and "Gravity", with its technical innovation, lead nominations with 10 nods a piece, while "12 Years a Slave" and its brutal depiction of pre-Civil War slavery in the United States has nine.
The highest honors of the film industry from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will be handed out on March 2. Voting among the 6,000 members runs from February 14 to 25.
It was a crucial night for "12 Years a Slave", which won the coveted Golden Globe last Sunday for best drama but failed to bring in any other awards that night. It has also lost out on key acting awards.
Director and producer Steve McQueen, in accepting the PGA award along with co-producer and actor Brad Pitt, addressed an issue that could complicate the film's Oscar potential: talk that it is too difficult to watch.
"When the film first came out in Toronto, some people were saying that this was a brutal film, that no one would go to see it," said McQueen, a British filmmaker. "Box office here in the United States and in the U.K. has proven differently."
The film from Fox Searchlight Pictures is based on the true-life story of Solomon Northup, a free man tricked and sold into slavery in Louisiana plantations who witnesses and is subjected to horrific treatment. He is played by British actor Chiwetel Ejiofor.
"Gravity," from Mexican director and producer Alfonso Cuaron, is based on a script he wrote with his son Jonas Cuaron inspired by their own setbacks as filmmakers. It is about an astronaut played by Sandra Bullock who is stranded in space after a space station is destroyed and her fight to return to Earth and a life marked by deep loss.
Cuaron said that it took more than four years for him and co-producer David Heyman to make "Gravity" and that the director (himself) "was difficult, stubborn and uncompromising".
Cuaron tested the patience and budget of Warner Bros. with his technical innovation to portray the weightlessness and the vastness of space.
Cuaron also touched on one of the big themes of the year, the extraordinarily high number of quality films that have made this awards season a celebration of a thriving industry.
"This has been an amazing year in cinema and I am talking about these amazing films that were nominated and many other films that were not nominated," Cuaron said.
The next big test for these films comes at next Saturday's Directors Guild Awards. Cuaron, McQueen and Russell are all nominated for the top DGA award and for the Oscar for best director.
But the longer time lag this year between Oscar nominations, voting and the ceremony could spell some unpredictable voting among Academy members, adding more uncertainty to the highly competitive race.

For the big game tonight (the NCAA tournament), why not make some roasted Parmesan potatoes for dunking?
These are quite tasty and were a hit at our house.
Roasted Parmesan Potatoes – Recipe from Reene
- 6 medium potatoes, russet recommended
- Olive Oil Spray (we used our Misto)
- Salt & Pepper
- 4 T Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp. minced garlic
Wash, peel and slice potatoes into 1/2 – 1 inch cubes.
Arrange potatoes onto a piece of tinfoil that has been lightly sprayed with olive oil.
Season potatoes liberally with salt and pepper. Then, spray with olive oil. Toss in the 1 tsp. minced garlic.
Roast potatoes at 425 for 25 minutes; flip potatoes over once during the cooking time.
Then, remove the tray from the oven and sprinkle with 4 T Parmesan cheese. We used shredded cheese, but the original recipe calls for grated. If you like rosemary, sprinkle a little on at this point too. If not, just omit.
Return to the oven for 10 more minutes until cheese is melted, and potatoes are crisp-tender.

Tiskus needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 31 designs submitted by 10 freelance designers.
TerranScapes.com just turned 2 years old and needs a stronger look for its growing market presence. The design should capture the essence of miniature terrain for gaming as presented by TerranScapes.
I am looking for a logo that makes a professional statement for a sole proprietorship. Miniatures wargame terrain requires detailed labor intensive work and as a small (one man) shop, TerranScapes provides that at a personal level. A logo that captures some or all of that feel would be ideal.
- The logo should incorporate the current color scheme of the website, and may or maynot include the current 'logo' font.
- It needs to include the current tag, "Pushing Terrain to the Edge of Reality"
- It needs to preserve the emphasized T and S in the logo name through font size or capitalization.
- The logo should have some strong contrasts and detailed imagery suggesting detailed work done by the company.
- Styling such as presented in World Works Games logo - See: worldworksgames.com gives an idea of the kind of detailed imagery and thematic feel I am hoping for TerranScapes' logo.
- A logo that incorporates a landscape feel rather than a building/structure will match TerranScapes product line more closely.
- Needs to transfer to paper media as well, though most usage by far will be online, so paper is secondary consideration.
- Needs to be a vector graphic (compatible with Photoshop 5.5)
- Not looking for a campy or fantasy feel. TerranScapes develops terrain for a variety of gaming systems and dioramas so logo should not be restricted to one genre.

Subscribe To Game Of Thrones Season 2: On Set In Iceland, And See Some Muppet Inspired Mash-Ups Updates
I've already subscribed
The first season of HBO's Game of Thrones captivated audiences. A rare genre cross-over, the fantasy has inspired a rabid fan following and, in turn, a whole lot of people anxiously awaiting its second season return on April Fool's Day. In the meantime, those obsessed with George R.R. Martin's "Song of Ice and Fire" series and the television show it spawned, have been coming up with alternative and fun ways to express their GoT love and growing anticipation for its return.
However, to help tide us over, HBO has just released a video journal from the chilly Iceland set. In order to recreate the circumstances North of the Wall, fake snow wasn't going to cut it, so the production had to find a more snow filled and suitable location, hence Iceland. The journal features co-creator David Benioff as well as frequent director Alan Taylor describing how important it is to shoot on location whenever possible and limit the use of CGI or creating landscapes in post-production (even though they did a fantastic job doing just that in the first season). Jon Snow, Sam Tarly, Commander Mormont, Grenn and (our first look at) Qhorin Halfhand also give their two cents on shooting in the real life 'Frost Fangs.'
As an added treat, since we got Game of Thrones inspired Valentine's Day cards yesterday - which if you haven't printed them, cut them and handed them out yet, well, you just don't like love - today we get a sweet mash-up of the fantasy series with The Muppets.
Artist Yehudi Mercado, has done an amazing job of not only creating the rad and impeccably illustrated mash-ups but also perfectly matching the characters from the two fictional universes. I mean, pairing Beaker and Dr. Honeydew with Peter Baelish and Varys is brilliant - or should I say Petyr Beakish and Dr. Varys Honeydew. I've included a few above and below but they can all be found at Super Mercado's Game Of Thrones Muppet Page, where you can also purchase them in poster form.... tempting.
Game of Thrones returns to HBO Sundays on April 1, 2012.

The winner of the 2005 Geoffrey Roberts Award, New Zealander Mary Taylor, used her travel bursary of £3,000 (nearly $6,000) to revisit some of the most remote fishing villages on the south coast of Sri Lanka with the specific aim of returning home and raising both funds and awareness of the island as a holiday destination. "I can honestly say that The Geoffrey Roberts Award changed my life", she said at the beginning of this year 2006.
Mary Taylor, who had already visited Sri Lanka while working in the food business, reports, "Returning to Sri Lanka in June was wonderful and very sad. It was apparent that much of the international aid package had not yet got through, for a variety of reasons." Since her return to New Zealand she has held a series of Sri Lankan-themed events, each of which has generated enough money to buy an oru, or traditional outrigger, as well as for funds for rehabilitation within the fishing community including components for nets, energy-efficient ovens, home garden developments and new bicycles. There are also plans to install refrigeration to expand distribution options for local fishermen.
The annual international Geoffrey Roberts Award, which commemorates the life of Britain's pioneer importer of fine New World wine, is now in its eleventh year and applications are being sought for the 2006 Award. Full details of how to apply are at www.geoffreyrobertsaward.com. The Award is open to anyone of any age and location who can convince the judges, luminaries of the world of gastronomy, that they will spend their travel bursary in a way that is likely to make a positive difference to the worlds of food, drink and/or travel. Closing date 31 March 2006.

That's a beautiful stone barn, you don't see many like that in this area; mostly barn boards.

Looks like your tree came out of the cold into my neighborhood! :-D That's a charming stone barnyard, James. I like both the color and the B&W. Nothing bad about point-n-shoots these days, even cell phones can take awesome shots, but I'm glad your car windows are clean.

I really liked this book because it is fun. You don't get to hear about a talking horse everyday! My favorite part is when the horse talks for the first time because it is funny. The story reminds me of my cousin because she is such a horse-lover and never puts her horses down.
I recommend this book to any horse fan. The story is fun, exciting and adventurous. An interesting part of the plot is when Jennifer gets on the horse she becomes invisible. You won't be disappointed by reading this book!
