May 1, 20119Best samurai movie ever? 13 Assassins just might be. The cinematography is superb, the story is solid and the acting is respectable. Takashi Miike's directing is fantastic, and the fight scenes are EPIC. Let me say ive not been a fan of samurai flicks.. till now.

Jun 25, 20111013 Assassins is enthralling, beautiful, violent, and disturbing. It takes from everyplace, adding feeling to every portion. The fights are exciting, intense, and bloody as hell. The humor is perfectly peppered in which is a refresher for the momentous and gripping action movie it is. Perfection.

Dec 17, 20117Granted, i watched it at midnight, the only showing in our area. Still, the movie was engaging. There is a deep level of violence that will be difficult for most - think kill bill. The story however unfolds brilliantly and somehow i don't think i noticed the time pass.
Dec 31, 20127A film about honour, justice, zen... and one of the best battle scenes in recent memory, a combat that lasts about an hour in the 'village of death' during which time a whole army is annihilated by 13 samurai soldiers.
May 3, 20117This film is directed by the same director that held the reigns for the epic-tastic masterpiece, Ichi the Killer. He has done some other stuff, but it's mostly watchable garbage. This film, well it's.. meh. In short, 13 Assassin has the stank and feel of a bo-bo-fied Kurosowa film sans any real heart: this movie is missing a soul.
Aug 22, 201110Amazing movie. incredible build up to one of the most epic battle scenes ever committed to film. Definitely the best samurai movie I've seen. A flawless piece of cinema. Takaski Miike is a true master.
May 10, 20116is a brutal and bloody film, hmm but it was not the great movie because I miss and history so to say the same of the Eastern battles. Maybe it was the final battle well prepared, generally a good movie to entertain a Tuesday night =)

Jun 4, 20117Certainly an entertaining film - and a standout in the genre of Samurai films, even if it's not up there with the very best of them. Great tension and build up to the climatic battle - but the battle itself goes for a long time, perhaps a little too long to maintain the tension built up over the course of the narrative. Still, solid addition to the collection!
Aug 26, 20118A pleasurable pastiche of familiar tradition, hyberbolic gore, archetypal characters, excellent build-up, and all put through the filter of the consistently original Takashi Miike.

Nov 26, 20118Well, a really good job (artistic/casting/story..). A very good reference in this genre, and a bit of fantasy with some details. I think this is an excellent mix of Samurai movies and some manga spirit (samurai shamploo...etc). Not a revolution in this type, so 8/10, but just great. Congratulations to this team.
Jun 13, 201210excellent old school kickback to samurai genre, effectively drenched in action. Great cinematography, costumes, dialogue, characters......................................................
Dec 26, 20128I agree with MarcDoyle, After seeing the brutal introduction, I may have turned people off (it did irk me a little) but it's far less brutal as it goes on, which is a good thing imo. It's well acted, Has a good story, and the ending is incredibly satisfying. I loved it. It is a must see modern action film.
Feb 7, 20129
Jul 15, 20128
May 16, 201210The story is so simple, but it offers so much depth as well as plenty of room fever dreamt carnage. This was such an amazing movie. If you are a fan of samurai movies this is a perfect movie to watch. The last thirty minutes is one of the best battle scenes I've seen since Lord of The Rings.
Jul 17, 20128
Sep 3, 20124
Nov 9, 20129Poignant, surprisingly compelling martial arts flick charged with emotional determination and some great performances.
Mar 11, 20135
75It may not be the most memorable saga put on film, but as far as Miike is concerned, it doesn't have to be.
91The great Kôji Yakusho stars as a revered samurai who decides that enough is enough, and sets about assembling the assassins of the title like a men-on-a-mission movie.
May 27, 201188Does Guinness World Records have an entry for longest on-screen fight? If it doesn't, Takashi Miike's 13 Assassins just set it. And if a record actually exists, Miike's film just broke it.

So check it out…Everywhere you go, you're being reminded of how important it is to thank a Veteran for their service. I couldn't agree more! My father served in WWII. My stepfather is a SeaBee, who did 3 tours in 'Nam. And, my little brother was in the Navy during the 1st Gulf War.
My family has always been appreciative of their efforts so that I may make jokes on the radio for over half my life.
I know there are tons of Vets who listen to KDKB every day. And, I recognize that their families also "serve" when their loved ones are away. So…when they came to me and asked if I'd be interested in taking part in the Veterans Tribute Ride & Family Festival on Saturday November 10th, I couldn't say "yes" fast enough. I'm not sure we can ever do enough for our real heroes. However, I've found that most, don't want any special recognition. They do what they do under a code I will never fully comprehend. All the more reason we should get out and show how much their efforts really mean. If you're looking for an easy way to say "thanks," while having a good time, join me on Saturday the 10th at Sanderson Ford. All the info is right on the flyer. Or, just hit up AZTRIBUTERIDES.COM, or Facebook.com/aztributerides for any other questions you might have.
I'll see you there! Roll Safe!!

It's that time of year again. Valentine's Day. Wonderful. A time where tacky love heart covered paraphernalia is everywhere and glitter is in abundance. Can you tell I'm not wildly sold on the idea of the Hallmark holiday? This is not because I am bitter, mind you, not at all. I have no Bridget Jones style I-hate-love plans for Thursday night, rather I will be spending a nice quiet evening in with my man. I actually have quite nice memories of Valentine's Day from 1996 where my "boyfriend" at the time gave me a love heart shaped balloon and a gorilla holding a pillow that said "I love you". We were only an item as we were friends and in the same class at school, and the furthest we ever went was holding hands – hence the " ".
As I am not V-Day's number 1 fan I decided to steer clear of love hearts and glitter and go for something slightly more obscure. Typical.
So I have eyes all over my nails. Get it? I only have eyes for you. And there's a little wink in there too.

For five years, Michael Emerson was the villain who stole just about every scene on "Lost." (And he has the Emmy to prove it.)
He was such an important part of that landmark series that it only seemed to make sense that he ended up on the side of good, keeping watch on the island when it was all over.
Now Emerson is on the island of Manhattan, filming "Person of Interest," one of the top dramas on television.
On the CBS sci-fi procedural, Emerson plays Finch, a mysterious genius whose creation, the Machine, can predict crimes before they happen. This time, his character's motives are more pure.
Emerson spoke to CNN about settling into this new role, an accidental visit to the set of "Gossip Girl" and his old friend from "Lost," Terry O'Quinn.
CNN: Now that you have a year under your belt, is Finch still a mystery to you?
Emerson: He's still a bit mysterious to me. I play it every day and I hope I play it well. I don't have a very elaborate mental biography for him, I must say. I think he must evidently be a lot like me, because whatever my instincts are about the scenes tend to be the things that get used.
CNN: Would you describe him as a good guy at this point?
Emerson: I don't think his altruism is in doubt. If anything he has misgivings about the purity of his suicide mission for justice.
CNN: With so many productions going on in New York, I heard you had a run in with one of them.

My mind feels so cloudy today. I cannot stop thinking of Ava and her parents and brother. I cannot stop thinking about how they are feeling today when they woke up this morning, or if they even slept last night. I think of Jack and how lucky we are that he is here and doing so well and in a way I feel guilty. I do not feel guilty that he is alive and I do not feel guilty that he is here and healthy. I feel guilty because Ava is gone and for some reason Neuroblastoma took her life and not Jacks. Survivors guilt. It sucks. I am sure it is nowhere in comparison to what Ava's family is feeling, but it sucks. Your heart hurts for their family. Your heart hurts for Ava and that she had to go through so much in her short life that was just pure hell. My heart hurts for her doctors that tried so hard to do everything they could to cure her of this awful disease and it didn't work because I know they are at home tonight thinking of her. Her mom said in her post "Ava did not lose to cancer" and I can imagine that was something that she decided a long time ago. Ava was a fighter. Through the posts that her family wrote, you could see that this little girl had a heart of gold and was so determined. Her body just didn't agree. Why Ava? Why Ben? Why Jake? Why Ronan? Like Jack said, "Why do all my friends from the hospital go to heaven?" How do you answer that? You can't. There is not a reason why the treatment works for some and not others. It is not because "Jack is supposed to be someone"…so does that mean these other beautiful kids weren't? I don't think so. "Everything happens for a reason." Tell that to the parents of these 4 kids. I don't believe that either. "God only gives you what you can handle" So does that mean that I would go in a looney bin if Jack didn't make it through treatment and these parents won't? I don't think so. I probably would go in to a looney bin, no doubt, but that doesn't mean that I am given any less heartache because of it. I can guarantee you that these parents, among so many other, feel like like they could check in the looney bin at times too and often wonder, "Why did he do well and my child didn't?" I know that because I have felt the effects of it. Some parents that I thought I would always have a friendship with have shunned me because they lost their child. I understand that in a way but it also hurts…survivor guilt.
It is times like these…times when we have to accept the fact that yet another innocent child has died because of cancer that makes you wonder all of this and it is ok to actually say it out loud. I think of all of these things often but I usually chose to keep them to myself. I think of the other children we have met and that are doing great…McKenna, Cameron, Olivia, Braden…and so many others. I think of Alex who has hit a few bumps in the road but him and his family continue to fight so hard and keep that faith that he will win. I think of those who will be diagnosed this year and what new treatments will be available to them that weren't available to Jack and if that will make a difference in the future. Would timing have changed the outcome of the kids who were robbed of their childhoood? How is that fair? It simply isn't. It isn't fair that any of these children were diagnosed with cancer. It isn't fair for any child to be diagnosed with any sort of disease….period. I think of this and want to do more. I know I go on and invite you all to benefits and fundraisers over and over again. I constantly ask for help (which I never would have done in my past life…past as in "before cancer") I ask you all because you all are the ones who can save these kids. The doctors that we have come in contact with are in this profession because they want to save lives. They do not want to sit back and watch children die. The problem is that they have no funding, so who do the depend on….us.
So I will continue to ask for your help and continue to invite you to fundraisers because I need you. We as a family need you. The children who have been diagnosed need you and those who will be diagnosed in the future need you. If you can, at any time, help…please do. I am not a person who will accept the word "No" so you bet your ass I will keep asking until I get a "Yes"

Parenting expert Kim John Payne to speak on benefits of less-is-more approach Nov. 15
SARATOGA SPRINGS — Amidst all the parenting books and movements out there, internationally renowned educator and counselor Kim John Payne has a simple message: simplify.
Payne will speak at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 15 at Skidmore College's Davis Auditorium, a discussion sponsored by Skidmore's Department of Education and the Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs.
The author of "Simplicity Parenting" draws on his three decades of experience as a family counselor, researcher and educator to conclude that most of today's children could benefit from what he calls "the power of less" — fewer toys, fewer activities, less stimuli and less stuff in general. He said he believes that by paring down, parents will find their children to be calmer, happier, more focused at school, more cooperative at home and better adjusted socially and emotionally.
Moreover, he believes a less scheduled childhood will benefit today's children economically and professionally in the future. Gone, he said, are the days of stable, one-company careers where following the crowd and people-pleasing ensured job security and a comfortable retirement.
"The world ahead is going to require people who can substantially create their own structure," he said, "not solely rely on others to do it for them." Instead of rushing from one adult-led activity to another, having more time to play, explore, imagine and tap into their own innate capacities, he says, will better prepare them for that future.
A consultant and trainer to more than 110 U.S. independent and public schools, Payne has been a school counselor, consultant, researcher, educator and private family counselor for 27 years. He regularly gives keynote addresses at international conferences for educators, parents and therapists and runs workshops around the world. In each role, he helps children, adolescents and families explore issues such as social difficulties with siblings and classmates, attention and behavioral issues at home and school, defiance, aggression, addiction and poor self-esteem.
Admission to the lecture is free. Seating is limited, and attendees are advised to arrive early. Refreshments will be served following the talk.

The work of Wake Forest Baptist involves and touches the lives of people from various walks of life:

Melanoma survivor recounts treatment with gratitude
Faced with a frightening diagnosis of melanoma in 2006, Susan Hines turned to Wake Forest Baptist's Comprehensive Cancer Center for treatment. Now, after successful surgery and follow-up care, she shares her experience.
Wake Forest Baptist's first employee leaves legacy that still benefits patients
Shortly before North Carolina Baptist Hospital opened in 1923, Miss Olivia Hall served as an assistant to the hospital administrator, Rev. G.T. Lumpkin. Upon the official opening on May 28, 1923, she became the first employee hired.
For the next 42 years, until her retirement in 1965, Hall performed an astonishing variety of duties: She handled patient room assignments, admitted patients, escorted them to their rooms, filed charts, kept financial records, handled billing and collections, prepared the payroll, and served as secretary to the superintendent. She could also be seen daily walking the hospital's deposits uptown to Wachovia Bank. Even in retirement, Hall came to the hospital nearly every day, greeting former co-workers and patients from the information desk.
Newmans fund scholarship, aim to promote community involvement
W. Harold Newman, M.D. '56, and his wife Ernestine, helped three of their four children through the School of Medicine, but they wanted to make sure others had that experience as well. The Fayetteville, N.C., couple, who have traveled the world on medical missions as a way of giving back, recently endowed the Newman Family Scholarship with a $100,000 gift to the school. Preference for the award would be given to students who show a desire to volunteer and give back to their community.

Thriller is seriously not even close to being the fourth best album of all time. Otherwise, it's a pretty good list.
Easily the best of all the Recognized charts.
I should agree that This one is quite fine 'official'chart but Some bloody popsingers are too overrated and Some real masterpieces are underrated relatively. Especially "Kid A" and "Wish You Are Here"
interesting....madonna's debut at 20 ???
actually better than i was expecting
imo, the best of the "official" charts
I like it. It's different
The basics of a great chart are great albums. There are no arguments about the qualifications of all 100 selections. A great chart.
what an interesting chart!
Wow! A great "recognized chart", finally!

The "Tribute In Light" to the World Trade Center shined in Lower Manhattan late Sunday, marking the end of the somber 10th anniversary of the September 11th terror attacks that included a ceremony at the new National September 11th Memorial amid heightened security throughout the city. | Watch the full World Trade Center site ceremony. | See viewers' 9/11 photos.
Updated 09/12/2011 11:50 AM
The city's interfaith community gathered Sunday for a glowing ceremony to honor those lost in the September 11th attacks 10 years ago.
A pregame ceremony at the new MetLife Stadium Sunday paid tribute to the victims of 9/11 and featured a surprise appearance by former President George W. Bush.
Sunday night's annual "Tribute In Light" memorial to the World Trade Center was very close to the rising One World Trade Center tower, but organizers said low funds could make the memorial go permanently dark after this year.
Updated 09/11/2011 11:49 PM
It has been said that memorials are meant as much to comfort the living as to remember the dead, and many September 11th family members said they took great comfort from the 9/11 memorial that has been created at the World Trade Center site.
NY1 VIDEO: NY1 presents complete coverage of the 9/11 Tenth Anniversary Memorial Ceremony held September 11, 2011, at the World Trade Center site. [4 hours, 48 minutes]
Updated 09/11/2011 11:48 PM
At Citi Field, Mike Piazza and John Franco, who played for the New York Mets in 2001, led first responders onto the field for an emotional ceremony before their game against the Chicago Cubs. Each member of the Mets also escorted a member of Tuesday's Children onto the field.
On Sunday night, hundreds turned out to the "Postcards" memorial in St. George to honor the 274 Staten Islanders who were killed on 9/11.
The U.S. government's "United We Serve" initiative reports thousands of volunteers pitched in Sunday to clean up parks, repaint schools and pack food supplies for those in need. One unique, diverse gathering of volunteers took place at a playground in Borough Park, Brooklyn.
On Sunday, those whose loved ones worked for the Port Authority and died on September 11th joined together at St. Peter's Chuch in Lower Manhattan for an interfaith service.
As part of its 9/11 tenth anniversary coverage, NY1 takes a look back at reporter J.D. LaRock's story from September 16, 2001 about how the Lexington Avenue Armory served as a family assistance center after the terror attacks, and its walls quickly became covered with photos of the missing, posted by loved ones anxiously awaiting word.
As part of its 9/11 tenth anniversary coverage, NY1 takes a look back at reporter Paul Messina's story from September 18, 2001 about the family of 28-year-old Monique DeJesus, one of the survivors of the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center who was missing and eventually declared dead following September 11th.
As part of NY1's coverage of the tenth anniversary of 9/11, former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani discusses his memories of the attacks of September 11, 2001.

That morning, he had just returned from active duty training and was taking the PATH train to Jersey City. He was with his roommate, who worked at the World Trade Center, and they arrived at the building just before 9 a.m.

World Trade Center Destroyed
Terrorists Crash Planes Into Towers
In an unprecedented barrage of terrorist attacks, both towers of the World Trade Center collapsed after being struck by two different hijacked planes Tuesday morning, and authorities have evacuated Lower Manhattan amid a cloud of choking debris to search for survivors.
The New York City primary scheduled for Tuesday has been postponed due to the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.
Saying Tuesday's morning terrorist attack was a "horrible, vicious act" Mayor Rudolph Giuliani called on New York City residents to remain calm in the attack's aftermath.
New York Governor George Pataki and Mayor Rudolph Giuliani are reaching out to the city's health professionals, asking doctors and other medical staffers for help treating the victims of Tuesday's World Trade Center attack.
Tuesday's terrorist attack on the World Trade Center has changed the very face of New York City, blotting out a landmark that had dominated the city since 1970.
The attacks on the World Trade Center Towers Tuesday morning led to a massive exodus of workers and residents fleeing Lower Manhattan under a cloud of soot and debris.
Search Goes On For WTC Survivors
Hours after the twin towers of the World Trade Center were destroyed in an unprecedented terrorist attack, rescue crews are working through the darkness tonight in a desperate search for survivors.
Watch a collection of stories filed by NY1 reporters on the day of the 9/11 World Trade Center Attacks and in the weeks following.
This interactive video timeline presents a moment-by-moment account of how NY1 News covered the World Trade Center terror attacks on September 11, 2001.
The initial moments of the 9/11 terror attacks can be heard on newly-released recordings of air traffic controllers on the morning of September 11, 2001.
The city came together Saturday to mark the ninth anniversary of the September 11th attacks, and Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Vice President Joe Biden joined other dignitaries and New Yorkers to honor the victims at a memorial ceremony near the World Trade Center site. | Watch the entire 9/11 memorial ceremony.

Kristin Andress
Imagine Being in a Life You Love is an invitation and rally cry for people to design their lives by choice rather than leave it to chance.
Kristin Andress, Speaker, Author and CEO of Andress Consulting is based in Solana Beach, California. Andress Consulting brings to clients the value proposition of exploring their ideas, passions, or visions—and exposing them to the possibilities. Kristin consults with authors, businesses, and entrepreneurs to create business, marketing, and promotional strategies; and craft key messages and the collateral to describe and position the person, product, or service offerings. She specializes in getting into the fabric of her clients' lives, work, or businesses, and simplifies what is seemingly complex. In doing so, her clients become laser-focused and clear, which leads to creating the connections with complementary businesses, media, and distribution avenues required to generate scale. Kristin currently consults renowned thought leaders Stedman Graham, Clair Newell, and Dr. Daniel Kalla.
Kristin Andress is the author of the book "Imagine Being in a Life You Love," which provides an invitation and rally cry for people to design their lives by choice rather than leave it to chance. Utilizing this content, she also serves as a public speaker at various women's and business groups and in schools.
Prior to launching Andress Consulting, Kristin enjoyed a ten-year career with Arthur Andersen, serving as Director of Tax and Legal–Performance and Learning. She led global operation teams in the United States and had coordination oversight in Cambridge, England, and Asia/Pacific.
Kristin holds a bachelor's degree in Public Communication/Human Relations from Western Illinois University and a master's degree in Organizational Communication from the University of Missouri-Columbia. Kristin enjoyed growing up in the small town of Pittsfield, Illinois, and regularly returns to visit family. Short stays are coupled with the niggling need to rub in her return to the ocean air and golf courses of Solana Beach, California, where she resides.
Designing An Intentional Life
So, how is life going for you? Is it going in the direction you imagined it would? Are your dreams in motion or have they left you feeling incomplete? Have you reached the point where you are taking inventory of what you have and have not achieved?
You are 100% responsible for your life and it is time to create it by design, not by chance. You get one go around - make the most of it! Whether your intention is to take stock of your life, improve your life, or take back your life, you are the cause of what you create within it. Top business consultant, Kristin Andress, provides an invitation (and rally cry) for people to be the authors of their own lives by providing the guidance for:
• You, being the cause of designing your life
• You, being the opportunity maker in your life
• You, being the reason for momentum in your life
• You, being the energy responsible for your life
• You, being the light that guides the way for others
In Kristin's presentation you will learn how to:
• Assess and access the life you imagine
• Define who and where you want to be
• Clarify and declare your intentions
• Gain power over the "Pings" or setbacks
• Knock out your TEMP excuses (around time, energy, money and people)
• Identify your Super Champions and create your own opportunity
• Reject the "ah buts" that that step in the way of achieving your intentions
• Develop your Unshakeable Belief System
You can wait for life to pass you by or you can be deliberate about the outcomes you wish to manifest. Your opportunity in life boils down to this: Your belief that all things are possible, that you have within you all that you need. Your life is personally within your power. It is all you imagine being. Kristin will help you change your perception of what's possible in a lifetime.
Kristin's speaking is based on the principles taught in her book Imagine Being In a Life You Love, and arrives at a time when people around the world are seeking opportunities to take control of their lives amid the myriad setbacks facing them, what she calls the PINGs of life. Whether it is job loss, weight loss, or clarity of life's purpose, Kristin provides direction for people to take the reins of life in hand. She offers the navigation tools for learning defining and creating a purposeful life you imagine living.
"When it comes to what we want and need, we are long on good intentions and short on action. Many people feel that life just happens to them, and it will, unless we choose to own the responsibility to cause the events, the situations, the opportunities, and the miraculous we wish to manifest. I want to help people create their lives by design, not chance." - Kristin Andress
"Imagine Being is a wonderful book filled with stories that give meaning to life and living...you learn as well as reflect and it is enjoyable...Kristin and Jaqui are special and have so much to offer the world" - Stedman Graham, author, CEO S. Graham & Associates

Trust state legislators to give less than their complete devotion and attention to his suggestions, but the key word is "complete." Some of his ideas make it into state policy, and some don't. And the speeches are best read as hybrids of policy and politics, setting up the governor's agenda for a legislative session as well as the foundation for his next election cycle. With Perry's interest in national office, those cycles come every two years now instead of every four.
The politics are easy this time. Perry hasn't said whether he will seek re-election in 2014 or whether he will run for president again in 2016. But a politician planning for a race in either year could have done a lot worse than the governor's performance.
He talked about fiscal conservatism and how well the Texas economy is doing because of a light regulatory touch. He reiterated his loathing of the federal government's health care plans while also saying the state stands ready to work with the re-elected president. And he spent something like $6.8 billion on tax breaks, water, roads and a financing swap involving highway money and state police.
He stayed out of the red meat market on social issues; for instance, the governor didn't talk about his support for a proposal to outlaw abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy to prevent "fetal pain," though he had been at an anti-abortion rally on the Capitol grounds three days earlier.
Social conservatives didn't get much. This is a fiscal program.
The tax break deserves particular attention. Perry wants lawmakers to set $1.8 billion aside for tax refunds or breaks. He asked them to back a constitutional amendment that would allow refunds.
Should the Legislature agree, voters would see that amendment in November, probably after a campaign with a slogan like, "Hey, you don't want money back, do you?" Five months later, those voters will be passing judgment -- in party primaries -- on the lawmakers who offered the tax breaks on the November ballot.
That is pretty good politics.
Not that lawmakers listen to what governors want: This was Perry's seventh effort, and if the Legislature took these things more seriously, it would be different around here.
We wouldn't have a state-run lottery -- it would have been sold to create an endowment fund for public education and an insurance program for the poor. That's from Perry's 2007 speech. That's also where he raised the idea of a $3 billion fund to fight cancer, also paid for with money from the sale of the Texas Lottery. It turned into the Cancer Research and Prevention Institute of Texas, financed with government bonds and, it turns out, riddled with problems of great interest to auditors and, perhaps, prosecutors.
We would be building a huge network of roads, rail and utility easements across the state called the Trans Texas Corridor. That one didn't survive the opposition of property rights activists. Texas is still building roads, but the idea of 1,200-foot-wide ribbons of infrastructure draped across the state is dead.
Students in Texas would be allowed to pay for private schooling with public money -- a voucher or "school choice" proposal that was in the governor's 2003 speech and that reappeared periodically after that, including in this week's address.
Those misses have not had much effect on the governor's success in state elections, and the rhetoric sometimes has as much political value as the idea behind it.
The governor was less overtly political this time out, but he was political just the same. He has not put any items on emergency status -- a designation that allows the Legislature to consider a bill during the first 60 days of a session. Two years ago, Perry stoked the government furnaces with emergency proposals for immigration, voter photo identification, required sonograms for women seeking abortions, a call for a balanced federal budget and property rights.
The emergencies are missing this time, but not the politics. Watch the spending ideas -- and the declarations against participating in the federal health care law. Those could be in play in 2014. Or 2016. Or both.

Kid Rock has raised more than $375,000 (£234,375) for charity while on the road.
The rocker began his Care tour earlier this month (Nov11) and announced plans to donate proceeds from the live shows to needy organisations through his Kid Rock Foundation.
He's halfway through the 12-date trek and Rock is already preparing to hand over the six-figure sum to local charities, thanks to a little extra help from business moguls in his native Detroit, Michigan.
The Cowboy singer is due to wrap up the Care gigs in Boise, Idaho on 4 December (11), before paying tribute to outstanding individuals across the world by performing on upcoming U.S. TV special Cnn Heroes: An All-Star Tribute on 11 December (11).

I would not buy this product again
By Ramy
from Whittier, Ca
Card is too small and very dark in color. Didnt care for the quality of the card, although, it does have beautiful wording.
Wonderful verse
By Sweet lady
from Texas
About Me Budget shopper
I wanted special Christmas cards for friend, family and church family. The verse is wonderful, but the quality of the paper is not good and picture on front doesn't stand out like it should. Price is good. Timely service is good.
Very Disappointed
By Dawn
from Parkersburg, WV
I was extremely disapointed with the card. I could have done a better job printing them myself on my home office printer. Ink was so light, could barely see it. Paper wasnt folded straight. Very cheaply made. They were so bad, I refuse to send them out and threw them in the trash.
Extremely disappointed
By grandmajane
from Garnet Valley, PA
This is a very poor example of a Christmas card. The paper is no where near card stock. Our name on the front just said our last name, not even the word 'The'. The verse on the card is very nice, but the actual card is extremely poor quality. We can't even use them - a total waste of money.
"very hard to read"
By disappointed customer
I was very dissappointed with these cards. I wish I had never ordered them. They are so hard to read, and the personalization was even worse. When I called to complain about them they said there was nothing they could do even though they advertise 100% guarantee. Not sure if I will order from them again. Have ordered for the last 12 plus years and always been happy, but not this year!
Wrong personalization!
By Golfer gal!
from Sebring, FL
The personalized cards were great, however, the personalization was incorrect. They are suppose to sent more, but, haven't received them yet. Good price for the quality!
Not impressed
By Kelli the Card giver
from Crestview, FL
These cards looked nothing like the picture in the magazine or online. You can't even read the words or see the picture on the front. The size is too small for what I wanted, which was my fault for not noticing the size listed, but that doesn't help with the print quality either. The paper used is beautiful, but the ink is very difficult to see. You have to hold the card at just the right angle to be able to read it, and in all of the pictures the printing was very clear.
nice card but writing very light
By Birdie
from Massachusetts
This is a nice card, however the silver writing on a dark blue background make it very difficult to read especially for the elderly whom I purchased these cards for.If the lettering was in black, I think it would be better.
Bad color; bad ink; bad product
By Traveler
from Indiana
You could read on the screen but could not read when they arrived. I loved the wording so I ordered them for this reason. Poor color choice and ink choice. Very disappointed. This is the first time I have ordered Christmas cards and I will not order them again. Not sure what to do with them. I have elderly friends and family and they are totally useless for me. Shame on you, Walter Drake. You should have done this card differently. Poor customer service

I received my cards very soon after I ordered them. I was very pleased with the quality of the card. The only thing I would change would be to make the silver ink show up a little better on the blue background. Otherwise, I love them!

Both one of the best and one of the worst hostels I've stayed in. There was a mess up with reservations (seemingly if you book online they don't find out about it) and when we finally got our rooms one of the rooms was flooded and the other half of our group had to go and stay in another house round the corner. However, the staff could not have been more helpful and the food and location were both brilliant. I'd stay again but would not recommend this to people who aren't laid back.

Beautiful place with warm and friendly staff. You have to take the dinner, only 70 dh and totally worth it. Soup, Tajine and Desert, just delicious and huge portions.

I loved this place. There was nothing more I really needed. Comfortable, quiet, sunny terrace, good facilities- showers are a little cold, I preferred using the squat toilet than the european, amazing views of the mountains, super lovely and helpful people that run it, advice on hikes from the main guy that runs it, wonderful dinners and fresh butter with breakfast. It's a little walk out of town but easy to get to with the grande taxis from marrakech- 30dirhim. So lovely- thanks for the stay

I can't stand it anymore - my friend just struck me again. We have arranged to jam tonight after work, but he didn't bring his guitar. Again. They all keep doing it occasionally.
The thing is I'm keen on jamming. I started to like it recently and I've noticed that it constantly improves my level of playing. Well, at least on improvising. And I think that it's not so interesting to jam along a song. At least when you need to choose a song manually.
It would be so great if there was an application, which facilitates jamming in some way. I saw a few back tracks generators which allow you to select chords and measures to play them and I wonder if there is something more. I have noticed, that my improvement probably caused by a need to play along with unknown and unusual rhythms, to determine the key of a song by the ear, to adjust my playing to any change of the player which plays accompaniment, etc.
So a perfect thing to play with would be an app, which can change something by itself. Or maybe there is a web app which allows to jam over the internet? (:
P.S. As you can see I meant an app which will play a backing track or accompaniment while I play some solo. I doubt there can be an app which will solo along my rhythm playing (:
P.P.S. I am a full time software developer, so I don't really have much spare time left to search a jam host to play. And as a developer I wish to automate whatever possible. My guitar playing is the only exception (:
P.P.P.S. I would mark the question with a "jam" tag, but there isn't one (which surprised me a little). So I chose the closest in my opinion.

Iron Man 2
Say you're director Jon Favreau. Iron Man was a huge critical and box-office success, so how do you top it with the sequel? First, you double the number of villains (enter Whiplash and Justin Hammer). Then you crank up the action. And last, but not least, you add a bunch more hot chicks.
While the original certainly had its fair share, the sequel takes hotness to the next level in a way that makes Gwyneth Paltrow (Pepper Potts) and Scarlett Johansson (Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow) look ordinary by comparison. Don't believe us?

Africa Custom Vacations
Africa, by its sheer size and the convoluted nature of the countries that make up this fascinating continent, can be slightly daunting when one is thinking of planning a safari or a vacation. Of course one wants to see as much as possible on what may be the "trip of a lifetime" but balancing activities and locations with the logistics of travelling around and making sure that the lodges, camps or hotels in which one might stay are "just right" can be a real task and a huge responsibility without essential first-hand knowledge of the destination.
That's where a long-established specialist like African Explorations comes to the fore. With over 20 years of trading as a specialist tour operator based in the UK, dealing with clients worldwide, we are experts in Africa custom vacations. Put simply: we know what we are doing. Our small team of dedicated, highly knowledgeable, professionals have all lived, worked in or otherwise have vast in-depth knowledge of the countries in which they create safaris and holidays for their clients. It is this knowledge, constantly updated, that is the anvil on which we forge your loose ideas into a gorgeous-but-workable end product that offers the correct balance of value and experience to ensure a superb vacation, whether it be a couple, a family, a single traveller or a specialist group. And there's no downside for our clients because it costs no more to use us than it would if one was able to create the same trip oneself!
An Africa custom vacation can engage with almost any client interest, be it wildlife, culture, a specialist activity or maybe some other reason for travelling to these fabulous destinations. We are proud to create vacations that are completely tailored to our client's requirements, down to the last small detail to the extent that it is almost unknown for us to send two different clients on exactly the same vacation. This may seem surprising but every individual on this planet is different; ergo each safari – if truly personalised – will be unique and cater for differing desires and personalities!
Africa custom vacations are, simply, our life. Our only requirement is that the vacation we create is exactly right for you, our client!

Whole-grain hamburger buns give you more fiber than white. Look for the words "whole wheat flour" on the label; many "wheat" breads are simply white bread with added color.
Turn up the heat by using 2 or 3 chopped fresh jalapeño chilies instead of the canned chilies.

We make a difference by saving vulnerable children's lives, providing for healing and lasting hope in African communities devastated by poverty and AIDS, one community at a time.
We accomplish this through the administering of emergent medical care and providing for ongoing sources for food, fresh water, shelter, and medical assistance. We implement personal and community development programs that educate and empower a healthy sustenance.
We began as a group of concerned health care professionals providing medical supplies and treatment to African children devastated by poverty and AIDS.
In June 2006, a team of dedicated volunteers (predominantly comprising the current Board of Directors and Officers) created Aid Africa's Children, Inc. a USA Not For Profit Corporation with 501(c)(3) status.
Aid Africa's Children is a 100% volunteer organization, meaning no USA Board Members, Officers, Advisers or Volunteers are paid for their work, nor are any fees requested for services rendered and talents provided to those in need. Aid Africa's Children is not affiliated with any particular religious faith, denomination or institution.
Our objective is to provide basic assistance to help sustain vulnerable children, adolescents and adults, enabling their transformation to healthy, empowered and educated Africans capable of breaking free of their cycle of disease and poverty.
In cooperation with various pharmaceutical companies and charitable organizations in the United States, volunteers have provided life-changing medical treatment, medical supplies and treatment plans for children and adults suffering from HIV/AIDS, malnutrition, dehydration, tuberculosis, hepatitis, malaria, yellow fever, typhoid, dysentery and impetigo.
Through the use of focused Teams in the US and oversees, we continue:
- Supporting and implementing:
o HIV/AIDS awareness programs.
o General health, hygiene, nutrition, and life skills enhancement programs.
- Supporting and funding orphanages, childcare centers and schools.
- Supporting small business and community economic development programs.
- Fostering youth and adult vocational and entrepreneurial endeavors.
- Enhancing primary and secondary education opportunities and improving the likelihood of advancement to post-secondary education.
In working with strategic partners in South Africa, Zambia, Tanzania and Nigeria; Aid Africa's Children has systematically implemented personal and community development programs including:
- Drilling of water wells.
- Instituting and funding school lunch programs.
- Facilitating computer donations.
- School construction and rehabilitation projects.
- Community support groups for orphans & orphan heads-of-household.
- Community support groups for HIV positive adults.
Through the generous help of donors and volunteers, Aid Africa's Children expects to expand our involvement in these types of partnerships and initiatives throughout Sub-Saharan Africa.
We have had support and encouragement from many government officials and local TV news personalities. In fact, President Barack Obama was our honorary benefit chairman for both our 2007 and 2008 annual benefits. We have appeared on ABC7 "Chicagoing" shows two times and on WBEZ 91.5 this past year. It is our hope that you will want to learn more about our organization and help us make a difference.

Sit back for a second and think about the word, "Focus." What comes to mind? A pinpointed laser? Crisp, clear visions of a serene horizon? The brushstrokes of a VanGogh?
All of those are viable visuals for "focus," but what does "focus" mean to your writing?
When I apply the word "focus" to writing, whether it's a simple blog post, a press release for a client, or a story for my children, I see it as a metaphor derived from my background as a photographer.
Photographers want their images to be "in focus," as sharp and as clear as they can be (in most cases). As the photographer focuses on their subject by making slight turns and adjustments of the lens, so the writer tries to see the story as clearly as possible through visualization, drafting, revisualization, editing (and more editing) until "the picture" is crystal clear. Then, snap. Done.
So how does focus express itself in your writing? How can you, as a writer, achieve better focus?
Here are some common questions I ask while writing that help sharpen the picture:
1 – Who's the story talking to?
2 – What's the news?
3 – What's one thing the reader MUST know?
4 – What makes this story interesting? (Is it interesting to others or just you?)
5 – What is the story about? (No, REALLY, what's it about?)
5.5 – Walk away and look at it later with fresh eyes. (Revisualization)
While anyone can pick up a pencil, pen or pull out a keyboard and write, if it's focused, writing can have impact. With focus, writing can help your community, help make change, help save lives and inspire the world.
How do you focus when writing?

A fee schedule approved by the public works committee is proposing a hike to $8.60 a month from $8.55 a month for the 65-gallon residential carts and to $13.60 from $13.20 for the 95-gallon carts.
Commercial and yard waste rates will have similar increases, although penalties — for infractions such as leaving carts on the street or putting nonrecyclable materials in the recycle bins — will remain at $10 or $20, respectively.
"The penalties are used sparingly," Public Works Director Jamie McCord said. "We usually put a warning hanger on the door and that takes care of it."
The cemetery fee schedules contain varying prices on gravesites, interments and disinterments. City residents are charged less than nonresidents, and the location and time of the work also are factors in the rates.
The increases apply at the publicly owned East View, Oakland and Myrtle Hill cemeteries, although McCord said only a few "nonprime" spaces are left in the historic Myrtle Hill.
A new $2.4 million mausoleum under construction there will add 588 crypts and 580 cremation urn niches, but those spaces will remain at presale rates until later next year.
City Manager John Bennett said the increased rates are included in the 2013 budget calculations. No hikes are planned for annual business licenses.
The proposed cemetery and solid waste fee increases will be presented to the Rome City Commission for approval at its Nov. 26 meeting.

College Basketball: Notre Dame tops Villanova for McGraw's 700th
Times staff and wire report
Muffet McGraw fittingly earned another milestone victory close to where she grew up.
McGraw became the 13th coach in Division I history to reach the 700-victory plateau with No. 2 Notre Dame's 59-52 victory over Villanova Tuesday night. Her career record is 700-257 in 31 years coaching (612-216 in 26 years at Notre Dame).
McGraw played for Bishop Shanahan in West Chester and collegiately for St. Joseph's. Her first head coaching job was at Archbishop Carroll High School in Radnor, literally down the street from Villanova.
"You know, I feel so blessed, I'm so incredibly lucky to be coaching at Notre Dame and to be surrounded by such classy people, all of the players that have come through the last 25 years, the administration, all of the assistant coaches, everyone at Notre Dame has treated me so well," McGraw said.
This wasn't an easy victory for the Irish (21-1, 9-0 Big East). Villanova (16-6, 5-4) cut a 10-point deficit to 48-46 on a 3-point field goal by Devon Kane (Notre Dame All-Delco) with 4:45 to play in the game.
Drexel 62, Towson 48
Hollie Mershon (Archbishop Carroll) led all scorers with 19 points as the Dragons (15-6, 8-2) improved to 8-3 away from home. Tory Thieroff had a career-high nine points for Drexel.
PSU-Brandywine 95, PSU-Lehigh Valley 55 Continued...
Dan Robinson collected 20 points and nine boards as Brandywine (16-8, 13-3) completed an undefeated run at home in PSUAC play.
Montgomery County C.C. 88, DCCC 69
The loss knocked the Phantoms (12-10, 10-2) into second place in the EPCC. Malcolm Nunn led DCCC with 21 points, six rebounds, three assists and two steals.
Tayqwane Wallace added 18 points, seven rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks. Carl McKenzie chipped in with 19 points, eight rebounds and four assists.

Underwear Thieves Escape: Best of the Blotter
Here are some of the weirdest police reports from departments across the region
As temperatures climb in Northeast Ohio, the amount of bizarre incidents reported to police departments is rising, too. Here are some of this week's weird calls and charges. All information was provided by police reports from departments in Patch communities. Where arrests or charges are mentioned, it does not indicate a conviction.
Pricey panties stolen: It appears that an undergarment thief made a clean getaway from SouthPark Mall in Strongsville.
According to a police report, someone stole about 150 pairs of panties from a display table on June 23 at the mall's Victoria's Secret location. The panties are collectively valued at $1,362.
Police have named no suspects.
More VS bandits: A week earlier, the Victoria's Secret at Summit Mall was also hit with a theft.
An employee told police said a man came in seeking advice on which skirt to buy for his girlfriend. While he held up the skirt in the worker's face, two women began shoving panties and yoga pants into a bag.
A report states 40 articles valued at $769 were stolen. Police did not find any suspects.
Victim arrested: It's always a good idea to contact police if you're the victim of a theft — unless you're already wanted for a crime.
Beachwood Police said a male went to the station June 20 to report that $1,899 of merchandise was stolen from his car at the Beachwood Family Aquatic Center. The items included clothing, a watch and a phone. However, police soon learned that he had a warrant out for his arrest in Medina County. He was soon arrested.
A message in barbecue: Most people expect to find barbecue sauce on their ribs around this time of year, not their garage.
Residents of a Crystal Creek Drive home called Brecksville Police at 1:30 a.m. on June 15 after hearing a person hitting their house and knocking on their front door. Police were unable to find anyone in the area, but a neighbor advised the residents to check their garage door. The residents found a splattered egg on the front door and "FU" written on the garage in what appeared to be barbecue sauce.
The resident called again to report it, but no suspects were located.
Roadblocks in Stow: It's unclear why wheelbarrows, rocks and trash cans were placed to block traffic on several streets in Stow, but police know who to blame.
A resident called police about 2 a.m. to report that the items were blocking the intersection of Bunker Lane and Wexford Boulevard. Police soon found more landscaping items blocking parts of Eastewicke Boulevard and Oldham Way.
As officers cleaned up the area, two teenagers approached in a silver, four-door vehicle, but quickly stopped and turned around. When stopped by police, the teens admitted responsibility and provided names of two other juveniles who took part.
They were arrested and charged with criminal mischief, a third-degree misdemeanor. Stow Youth Services is handling the situation, police said.
