Full of music and laughter, love and family, this show is designed to put you in the holiday Spirit! A theatrical gift for children of all ages!
a joyby g8grrl
Tuesday, December 11, 2007
This production warms the heart. I envy the actors who sing and play multiple parts and instruments. I love the music and joyous singing. The acting is strong and funny. The Tavern's take is more narrative than most, but it helps add depth and understanding to the story. This is the third year my family has seen wonderful show, and we'll be back next year. God bless us everyone! [POST A COMMENT REGARDING THIS REVIEW]
The Tavern's "A Christmas Carol" (I can't not comment)by Okely Dokely
Friday, December 7, 2007
I unfortunately can't say much, nor will I give this a rating, because I am involved with this theatre. I had nothing to do with this production, though (also very unfortunate), so I will say a couple of things.
I just got back from the opening night of The New American Shakespeare Tavern's "A Christmas Carol," and I am nothing less than enchanted, captivated, and invigorated. There is so much heart in this production. So much heart. You are the first people I'm admitting this to, but at the end I got misty-eyed and wiped away a tear or two. This is the first "Christmas Carol" I've seen where I've done that. I suspect that this show filled everybody at the Tavern tonight with the Christmas spirit - or loving spirit, or whatever-you-believe-in spirit - because there was an awful lot of hugging and shaking hands going on. I could sense this was more than just business as usual.
This will possibly be the last "Christmas Carol" the Tavern does; this version, at least. What they will do for their future holiday shows is up in the air right now - they are polling audience members to see what they'd want. So this might be your last year to catch this incarnation. Drew Reeves's Scrooge had grown on me and then some by the end, and you truly haven't lived until you've seen Matt Felten's Tiny Tim.
I hope I'm not being a hypocrite here. My stance on in-house reviews on this website has always been as follows: it's fine as long as your name's not in the program under cast or crew, you give it a NR, and you're forthcoming about who you are.

Good idea by the_unlikely_thespian "I hope I'm not being a hypocrite here. My stance on in-house reviews on this website has always been as follows: it's fine as long as your name's not in the program under cast or crew, you give it a NR, and you're forthcoming about who you are."
I like this a lot. If this isn't official TR policy, perhaps it should be. I'm guilty of giving a numeric rating to a production of a theater company that I've been working with a bit, though as in Okely's case, not for that particular production.
When I find myself in this situation again, I think I'll try the NR.
Sorry if this derails the thread. Good review. by EKFricke I'm on bar duty for tonight. I worked the show last year and I remember that Matt's Tim did stand out.
As to their idea to choose something new... I'm not sure they need to pick another show for their Christmas offering, but as one who has been volunteering for a few seasons now, I will admit I wouldn't be opposed to a new casting. Not that I don't love the regulars but I'd suspect some others on their team are chafing to give it a go and if given the opportunity, could knock it out of the park just as far as the veterans currently do.

Evil Drug Company Exposed! is the three-hundred sixty-second video in the lonelygirl15 video series. It is also the one-hundred sixth video of season two.
Jonas: Wow. I've been hanging out with Dr. Hart the last couple days and man, uh, what he told me was... well I'm just going to show you.
(Cuts to Dr. Hart)
Dr. Calvin Hart: My name is Calvin Hart. I'm a geneticist. My specialty is the study of Pleiotropy, which is the genetic effect of a single gene on multiple phenotypic traits. (Jonas walks behind the frame) In laymen terms I'm trying to learn how to beat death. During my time as Verdus Pharmaceuticals I studied a particular gene that determined a cluster of traits in individuals. One of these traits is the so-called trait positive that's been discussed on this website. I eventually learned that these trait positive girls that we were working with... had not been naturally born that way, that in the womb they were being altered to provide Verdus... to provide me with test subjects. I brought my concern to Ted McKinley, the vice president of Verdus's biotherapeutics. Something told me to bring a camera with me. I'm... not usually someone who listens to my intuition but...
(Cuts to Dr. Hart and Ted McKinley, the camera seems hidden)
McKinley: It's not true!
Dr. Hart: I've discovered lab results for thirteen women, who came in here with negative markers for the ribozyme and... (shrugs)
McKinley: Calm down, it's not true. Verdus has always adhered strictly to the Helsinki Declaration, you know that.
Dr. Hart: But I've seen the lab results.
McKinley: Cal, what are you here to do?
Dr. Hart: I'm here to study the effective genetic modifier on the ribosomes and RNA for certain genetic-
McKinley: No, no, no, listen, you're here to save lives, not just one life but thousands of lives, millions of lives. Even if what you're saying is true, which it isn't, but if it was, these subjects, they just follow the tradition of heroes who sacrifice to make the world a better place. You need to pay attention to the arithmetic. (long pause)
(Cut scene back to Dr. Hart, tapping a straw on a cup.)
Dr. Hart: Millions of lives. I understand. There was a time when I would have agreed. In my lab I only saw dozens of lives. Young lives whose blood had been altered... resulting in their deaths. Only one, Gina, whom you've seen, survived past the age of five. She died at the age of fifteen.
Jonas: (Off-screen) Tell them what happened after you went to McKinley.
Dr. Hart: I went back to my lab to find it ransacked. There was a message scrolling on my computer screen, a warning message, saying 'Do the Math'. I guess I figured it was time to get out. You know I never was very good at arithmetic.

After eight blog posts, I have now finished ghostwriting the memoir which, because the client was so busy, has taken longer than expected. The final word count is 71,000, longer than she anticipated but it doesn't read long.
In the final edit, we tweaked a few stories so that we didn't upset people that she likes/loves, rewrote certain quoted passages (for copyright reasons) and deleted a couple of incidents that may have fallen foul of defamation laws. We haven't lost any power from the story, and we can both sleep easy in our beds!
Now that the client is in a kind of post-adrenalin state – I've done it! I've really done it! – the next stage is to decide whether to approach a publisher or self-publish. Whatever the final destination of the manuscript, the memoir is written and will be there forever – no one can take that away from her.
In the meantime, I have already made good progress on the next ghostwriting commission. It's another memoir from a client who's had an amazing life.

SPIRIVA FOR SALE, Writing is hard.
Even in the best circumstances, when you're inspired, or writing something purely creative, imaginative, fluid or formless, it's still tricky business. There's the self-doubt, the "violence of articulation" (as Momma Anne says) when you take that first step into the void, discovering tone, word choice, grammar, punctuation - so many things can derail you from your simple task of finding the words to convey your thought, your point, your purpose.
This is what I've been discovering as Marsha and I have waded through the writing and rewriting process on several proposals over the last few weeks. Not just is writing hard - writing at least marginally well I mean - but writing about something you love that seems intangible, SPIRIVA maximum dosage, Where can i cheapest SPIRIVA online, illusive: that's really, really hard.
I was looking at our website tonight, SPIRIVA pharmacy, Buy generic SPIRIVA, double checking that I'd used the proper photo credits in a proposal that we're about to submit and I was struck once again by this company, this place that I stumbled into a little over a year ago, buy cheap SPIRIVA no rx, SPIRIVA recreational, running into an unknown shelter out of the snow and the wind and the darkness, only to find myself - simply - home.

This program will pardon those who are in possession of falsified documents and will receive legal documents.

The 20 year veteran teacher, who is now an ATR goes on interview after interview. He is an ATR because the elite program he worked in has been eliminated. His first two years as an ATR were spent at the school that wrote the recommendations for the elite program. Instead if bringing him back, the school hired several newbies, straight from college.
The ATR has worked in many schools, has done everything asked of him, but he can't get a permanent position. Recently he got a call from the school that gave him the rave reviews. He was interviewed by a 30 something AP, supervising a subject she knows nothing about, for a position in a subject she knows nothing about. Needless to say, the ATR did not get the position.
It is sad to see how low education has sunk since I began teaching. Experience and quality are a threat to these incompetent, know nothing administrators. They can't help new teachers and they won't hire those who can. Heaven help the students in their schools.

Torque Unit Conversion Calculator
Type values into the field.
Additional tool:
The product of force and lever-arm distance, which tends to produce rotation. One newton metre is equal to the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to a moment arm which is one metre long. The SI derived unit commonly use for torque is the newton metre. Alhough a newton metre is dimensionally equal to a joule (SI unit of energy and work), it is not appropriate to express a torque in joules. Energy and work is a scalar quantity while torque is a vector quantity (pseudovector).

29 Sep2007
We just got back from the movie "No Reservations" with Catherine Zeta Jones… I enjoyed it immensely and it was the perfect antidote to a very, very busy (exhausting) week. The last time there was a food related movie in town, Ratatouille, a reader likened me to Anton Ego, and I must say, that amused me immensely. So I figured I would pre-empt any readers this time around and try to figure out if I was like any of the characters in this movie. I was amused to see my orange crocs on Nick, the male chef with a penchant for opera, and a preference for Italian cooking… However, I really did have to laugh out loud when a customer at the restaurant complained (twice even) about his steak not being rare enough and Kate (Zeta-Jones), stormed out of the kitchen with a raw steak impaled on a carving fork and she thwacks the steak down in front of the customer, the tines of the carving fork stuck on the table. Mrs. MM and The Kid stared directly at me in the dark movie theater with this incredulous look… After the movie was finished, they relayed that if I ever opened a restaurant, I would MOST DEFINITELY pull a stunt like that, BUT MOST DEFINITELY. Just so you know. And I do want to learn how to whip a tablecloth off of a table with plates and cutlery on it. :)
i haven't been to the movies in years!! I would see the "dibidi" stores in quiapo when i do my errands for baking but i feel scared to stop and check the wares thinking that a snatcher or pickpocket might be around waiting for a possible victim and I am aware of the consequences of purchasing something pirated and not getting what i paid for when i watch it.. sayang pera.. pede naman irent na lang..hahaha!
Having read that you liked the movie is surely a good sign that it was really good. I might see it with my hubby if I have time or if it's still available at the moviehouse..hehehe..
Sep 30, 2007 | 12:31 am
I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I wanted to see it because it was intriguing how Zeta-Jones would look as a chef. Mukha kasi siyang di nagugusot…mostly glam roles.
Sep 30, 2007 | 12:40 am
Enjoyed the movie too! I want to have an office/clinic like that of Kate's therapist :-)
Sep 30, 2007 | 12:51 am
haha, great movie noh? it was one of the few english movies shown this month in china, so i watched it with my mom. only, the adoptive daughter was so bratty! gosh.
Sep 30, 2007 | 1:28 am
Like the movie too – has both drama and comedy.
Sep 30, 2007 | 3:02 am
From how you have described that particular scene from the film "No Reservations", I have a feeling that it is just a US remake of the Italian/German film "Bella Martha" that I saw a long time ago.
It's a cutesy film, wherein the German chef Martha falls in love with her Italian colleague who is her exact opposite.
I liked the way they played on their cultural differences, how they handled their work/lives in and out of the kitchen.
It would be good if you can see the original European version, too. :)
Sep 30, 2007 | 5:06 am
Raw steak nailed on the table. That's what I feel like doing when served with a tough steak but I never asked the grillman to undercook it. Have not acquired the taste for raw beef either be it carpaccio or steak tartare (this one with raw egg yet). Last time I saw raw steak being wolfed down in a movie was with Mia Farrow as the wife of the devil in Rosemarie's Baby. Scared me to the tip of my toes. Wags at the time tauted that her marriage to Frank Sinatra was her rehearsal for the part but that was when her domestic life with Woody Allen was far away into the future.
Sep 30, 2007 | 6:05 am
Jade186, you're right, sounds like a remake of "Bella Martha" ("Mostly Martha"), 2001 German film. My favourite scene is Chef Martha tasting and guessing what the different sauces are, and getting them right. I aspire to get that good :)).
Worth taking the time to watch…
Sep 30, 2007 | 8:02 am
our physics professor taught us how to do the tablecloth thingy a few months back. it's pretty cool and easy. i'm sure you can do it!! :D
Sep 30, 2007 | 8:02 am
That would be really exciting if you open a restaurant. Thanks for the review. Now all I need to do is drag my husband with me to a date.
Sep 30, 2007 | 9:00 am
I'm in the cruise business now for 17 years but believe me I still cannot fathom how on earth can people eat bloody gory red meat. As people slice the steak, I see blood oozing like a surgeon opening someone's flesh.
No wonder why there are so many heavy set people in the United States. Cows, pigs, chicken and more are fed with heavy doze of hormones or fattening material to make it grow faster and then people absorb these things. Their portion per serving is enormously big!!
In the end they ask for diet soda as if it will wash away the food they eat. My apology but that is reality in the United States.
Sep 30, 2007 | 10:00 am
Saw it yesterday too and loved it.
Sep 30, 2007 | 10:37 am
only if i have watched the movie ahead of you, i would have likened you to nick too! of course, in the looks department :p
Sep 30, 2007 | 2:50 pm
The movie was nice but, like most remakes, I thought this just wasn't as good as Mostly Martha.
Sep 30, 2007 | 5:56 pm
I love the movie. I love the characters. One would actually feel the organized chaos a real kitchen could always turn into. I was so curious about the saffron sauce that I even googled for it and got lucky to have found the recipe of the Seared Scallop with the not-so-secret Saffron Sauce (from nypost.com) created by Lee Ann Wong at French Culinary Institute. It looks easy to follow except for one problem… where could I get the secret ingredient kaffir lime leaves? Or do we have other names for that?
Sep 30, 2007 | 11:00 pm
Hi MM. Did you read the PDI Sunday Magazine? They posted a picture of you working on your Viking oven but labeled it wrong. Check it out.
Oct 1, 2007 | 8:09 am
After reading asunta's comment, I immediately searched for the article and this is what I found:
taken from inquirer.net
"The PBA's plum "bloggers' choice award†was won by Market Man of marketmanila.com authored by a semi-retired management consultant who writes about "overspending in markets and food shops,†"chopping vegetables for therapy,†and cooking up a storm in his kitchen with a six-burner Viking stove, three refrigerators, and 200 cookbooks."
Hmmm…I wonder……I just hope that this article is not some agenda of some sorts for Inquirer after the latest 'event' that they were in with you.
Oct 1, 2007 | 10:00 am
Hi Marketman! It's my first time to post a comment in your article but I constantly read your posts :) I also watched the movie "No Reservations" yesterday and I truly love it! :) I also have an orange Crocs (though different style) and it was nice seeing it in the movie :) I hope I'm as beautiful and sexy as Catherine! Hay!
Oct 1, 2007 | 10:22 am
Hi Market Man,
I preferred Mostly Martha. Then again it had the advantage of novelty. If you watch Mostly Martha after watching No reservations then perhaps you would prefer No Reservations. Let me know if you want to watch Mostly Martha I have a large collection of Food related movies and Cooking DVDs.
Oct 1, 2007 | 10:32 am
Have you watched Eat Drink Man Woman? Apart from Babette's Feast and Like Water for Chocolate, I loved this movie too…the Chinese cooking makes me so hungry! :)
Oct 1, 2007 | 1:58 pm
This movie Eat, Drink, Man Woman, is this about a retired widower/chef who has three daughters and prepares mouth-watering sunday dinners? If it is, I saw this film on Swedish tv some months back and as most foreign films shown here, it was shown in its original language, Chinese, and sub-titled in Swedish. I enjoyed the film, esp. the culinary scenes. The dishes were so steamingly good, it reminded me of some of the lively restaurant scenes in Hongkong.
Have yet to see No reservations, and Mostly Martha. Will definitely check these out.
Thanks for the review MM!
Oct 1, 2007 | 8:24 pm
Anton Ego is so haughty and cold. You don't write like a haughty person.
Oct 2, 2007 | 7:59 am
saw it last sunday and enjoyed it. refreshing to see catherine with almost no makeup, lines and all. makes her less goddess like but still a great beauty.
Oct 2, 2007 | 10:22 am
Market Man Babette's Feast is definitely my favorite food related movie. Eat, Drink Man, Woman is a close second and definitely worth watching especially the first five minutes. It was remade in America into a movie called Tortilla Soup but despite the assistance of Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger it had none of the flair of Eat, Drink, Man, Woman. Tampopo is also one of my favorite food movies. Other DVDs worth acquiring are Vatel with Gerard Depardieu, Big Night, and Dinner Rush.
Oct 2, 2007 | 11:13 am
Yep, I agree with APM, i saw eat drink man woman and was able to compare it with the remake tortilla soup. Eat drink man woman was much better. And as an fyi, it was directed i believe by Ang Li of brokeback mountain. Just thinking about eat drink man woman makes me want to go out and eat some chinese food. Definitely worth watching!

Best and worst opticians stores
Five steps to the right prescription glasses

Five steps to the right prescription glasses
Buying glasses with the right elements will give you the best vision and save money. Follow our essential, but simple, tips to do this effectively.
Our research shows that shoppers sometimes struggle to understand whether different glasses choices – such as lens coatings – are right for them, when buying a new pair of glasses.
Use our expert optician's advice and five-step guide below to choose a pair of glasses that are the best price and fit for your eyes.
We also reveal the best- and worst-rated opticians brands.
1. Know the key different types of lens
Single-vision lenses have one prescription throughout the lens.
Reading glasses tailor single-vision glasses to your reading distance.
Enhanced reading glasses work at two reading distances – eg your book (close up) and computer (further away).
Varifocal lenses combine far-distance, intermediate, and close-up vision, if you don't want multiple pairs. There's no visible line in the lens, as there is in bifocal lenses.
2. Understand lens materials and thicknesses
If you're looking for slim lenses, you're likely to encounter the term 'high index'. High index just means that the lens is thinner.
If you're long sighted (over +2.00 prescription), consider a lens made 'minimum edge surfaced' (thinned). For a prescription over +3.00, consider a 1.67 high-index (thinner) lens, and for over +5.00, choose a 1.74 lens.
If you're short sighted (over -2.00 prescription), consider Trivex – a light but tough material – or high-index 1.6 lenses. For a prescription of over -4.00, select 1.67 lenses, and over -6.00, 1.74 lenses.
Smaller, round and oval frames give naturally thinner lenses, and can therefore help you avoid paying more for higher-index lenses.
If you're choosing rimless or half-frames. consider Trivex or 1.6 lenses for strength.
3. Get the right coatings for prescription glasses
Most lenses include scratch-resistance as a standard coating, and – in the case of some high-index (1.6+) or premium lenses – also an anti-reflective coating.
Choose an anti-smudge (oleophobic) coating if your anti-reflection coating accentuates annoying smears.
A UV coating protects to UV400 (sunglasses level) without changing the lens colour. Many lens materials inherently filter UV (such as Trivex, higher index and polycarbonate).
Premium 'multi-coats' combine the benefits of lots of different coatings in one, typically anti-scratch, UV, anti-reflective, oleophobic and hydrophobic (water resistant) coatings.
Joanna Pearl,
There's little evidence most people would benefit from the priciest varifocals.
Principal Health Researcher
4. Don't pay over the odds for varifocals
There's little evidence that most people would see more clearly or comfortably with the priciest varifocals, so many people can avoid trading up. See our advice on choosing varifocals for more on this.
The fitting measurements are crucial to how well your varifocals perform, so do ask your optometrist or dispensing optician to check the fitting.
5.Save money with suitable frames
If you have a moderate or high prescription, choosing your frames carefully could save you pounds in unnecessary upgrades. For example, a very large frame may well require a thinner (more expensive) index lens than a more suitable size and shape.
As a rule of thumb, your pupil distance should also be as close as possible as the frame size. This will reduce lens edge thickness.
Be cautious about selecting a rimless frame over +5.00, as the edge may be prone to cracking.
A dispensing optician, optometrist or experienced optical assistant will be able to advise you of how to choose the best shape of frame for your prescription, and ensure that the lenses are the best match.
If you want new lenses in existing frames, optical practices will always warn you that this is at your own risk - if they will do it at all - as an ageing frame loses some of its strength. This could mean that the frame breaks, and the lenses - which have been cut to fit - become redundant.

IN Japan, Japanese women both young and old would be seen wearing the kimono whether casually on the streets or formally on occasions. This, a millennia after its invention.
The "prototype" kimono was first worn as early as the 8th century during the Heian period (794-1192). By the 18th century during the Meiji period (1868-1912), the kimono we knew today came to be.
Meanwhile in the Philippines, the equivalent terno, a beautifully silhouetted gown featuring the iconic butterfly sleeves, can only be seen on stages of beauty pageants orfashion shows. In recent times, during the State of Nation Address. This even if it is much younger traditional dress.
Euden Valdez
is a former dyarista, now digitista who has been writing whenever the tides, the winds, the earth take her somewhere familiar, somewhere new.

It's interesting to see the mindset of twisted liberal educators - who don't want police officers on campus?
(Fox-Phoenix) He's not the type of armed man on campus you'd expect parents to be concerned about -- but apparently a police officer dropping off his daughter at school was just too scary for some parents in Mesa.
And the school principal actually called that officer to ask him not to wear his uniform on campus ever again.
The officer, who works for the Coolidge Police Department, is a parent of a kid that goes to Entz Elementary School in Mesa.
The request made by school officials to not wear his uniform and gun on campus shocked and upset a lot of people.
All Scott Urkov did was drop his daughter off at Entz Elementary School. Little did he know that what he was wearing that day would lead to a call from the principal.
The Mesa School District needs to require that Gregory S. Reid, the school principal of Entz Elementary School go on 40 hours of police ride alongs. If he doesn't, maybe Reid could find a government job in the Obama Administration pimping ObamaCare or some other progressive goofball program.
I recall a situation in California many years ago when the infamous California Supreme Court Justice, Rose Bird was asked why people had so many locks on their doors. Bird said that it was because they feared the police. That is the problem with the deluded "progressive" mind set.
And who does this petty principal believe will come to save his wide rear end if something bad happens on campus? You can reach Principal Reid at 480-472-7300.

Dee Perez-Scott: Obama's Muslim Brotherhood Summer
The Muslim Brotherhood celebrates in Tahrir Square after their Islamist candidate, Mohammed Morsi, has been confirmed as the winner of the Egyptian presidential election. How many women can you count in this picture?
Th supporters of the military's choice said they did not want to see the Muslim Brotherhood come to power and impose their Islamic agenda. They say the talk is that the U.S. helped to empower the Muslim Brotherhood and that the Obama Administration has no idea how dangerous and radical the Muslim Brotherhood is. On the other hand, this may well be exactly what Obama wanted . The Arab Spring is turning into the Obama Muslim Brotherhood Summer.
One has to wonder why any women in Egypt voted for Morsi since they will sent to the back of the bus once he is sworn in. Who knows what the full range of restriction's on women will be? Will they be allowed to drive? Will they have to wear a bhurkas? Will their husbands be allowed to beat them as necessary? This would be an excellent place for Dsee Perez-Scott to learn a lesson she would never forget. Should we buy her a one way ticket to Egypt?

Dee Perez-Scott: DREAM Amnesty
Dee Perez-Scott, as she calls herself on her un-American blog, is a zealous supporter of all illegal aliens and the Administration which continues to flaunt the law with selective enforcement. However, that name is as phony as her blog photo. She substituted the photo of a movie star for her own photo. She must be ashamed of her pudgy body. In her latest rant about the illegal DREAM amnesty she says that Romney is pandering to the Hispanics but then insults Sarah Palin because she said the same thing about Obama. This is just another example of Perez-Scott's confused thinking. Her rhetoric indicates that if Palin is nutty then that makes Obama equally nutty.
Politicians always pander to voting blocs as a necessary evil to getting elected. When we look at the facts in this case, it is obvious that Obama's action on DREAM was an overt manifestation of his pandering to Hispanics. Why else would he announce this new policy only a few months before the election? He wants their votes, every one of them, legal or illegal. The Congress turned down the DREAM Act and Obama has the effrontery to ignore that fact and proceed on this own. Obviously, he believes in government by fiat – in a word dictatorship. First he ignores the laws he doesn't like then when the Congress says no, he ignores that and proceeds via executive order. Obama says send me the DREAM bill and I will sign it. Sorry Obama but that's not the way it works. You may propose anything but Congress disposes.
Asked whether he would reverse the Obama DREAM amnesty executive order, or whatever Obamae is calling it these days, Romney made a mistake in not being more forthright on this issue. He should have said, "Yes, I will rescind this order on the basis that it is an illegal usurpation of the role of Congress. If the Congress sends me a bill that is fair to legal immigrants and provides some form of relief for illegal aliens brought to this country as young children by their parents, I will sign it. However, I will insist that every DREAM applicant must have served in the Armed Forces for not less than 4 years. During that time they will be able to earn money to help them pay for a college education. Hopefully, that experience will deepen their love for this country, remove any stigma associated with their illegal status, and mature them in a way that later will enable them to be more successful in college."My own thoughts on this matter are in accord with the following paraphrase of a comment on another blog by a poster known only as v. He says that we need to keep in mind that these illegals are not our children…they are Foreign Nationals born to two illegal aliens….born using the US welfare system and still continuing to suck up US taxpayer dollars! They refuse to speak English…even though we pay thousands more to educate an illegal alien than we pay to educate a US citizen…they are disruptive in class…are gang members…allow their children to tear up merchandise in stores……. In no way are they an asset to the US! (end if my paraphrase of v's comment)
They speak their native language as well as their parents and could be a real asset in their homelands. Their exposure to the American republic and its ideas might enable them to change the governments and economies in their homelands for the better. They have been parasites on the American economy for too long. It is time for them to give back by leaving forthwith to seek their fortunes in their homelands. If they are indeed among the best and the brightest of the illegals, that should not be a problem.
The problem or question that all Hispanics and others should ponder is: Will an America with 600 million people have the same standard of living and quality of life as an America with 300 million or less. Those who choose to put their heads in the sand will be responsible for recreating the very conditions that caused them or their parents to flee their homelands. This is what the pro-immigration propagandists are unlikely to mention.
v. continues, Rubio has shown that he represents the Interest of Foreign Nationals and Illegal Aliens….He has chosen to ignore what is in the best interest of legal US citizens! Most of us have been here for hundreds of years and we are being ignored! It's time to take our country back…..No one has the right to enterr the US unless we invite them. Obama has no authority to do this in violation of immigration laws. And it's Time to remove the welcome mat! We have allowed too many Foreign Nationals into the US in too short a time. Approximately 7 Million since Obama took Office…they took my job and my friends next it will be yours or your Childs JOB!

Dee Perez-Scott: You should be able to understand the threats of continued population growth
With the decline in the number of White births in the U.S. and the rise of the births of minorities, there is nothing left to take hold of except population growth, which cannot be worked for the good of any citizen. It, therefore, seems proper and right that we should seek a depth of understanding among both Whites and minorities intelligent enough to understand that a stable population is in their own enlightened best interests. Our finite natural resources mean that every addition to our population will reduce the amount of those resources available to each of us and thereby inevitably increase their cost. This logically applies to the world population as well as our own.
How can this message be effectively delivered to everyone? Everyone must be made to understand that continued population growth will ultimately result in a decline in the average standard of living and quality of life for us and our posterity. Enlightenment will be difficult to achieve. It will require the efforts of everyone: Democrats, Republicans, Independents, citizens and immigrants, but this is only way we can enable the enactment of enlightened immigration and tax policies aimed at the common objective of a stable population.

Greenpeace activists on trial in France for nuclear break-in at Fessenheim's plant
Issued on: Modified:
Greenpeace activists from 20 countries go on trial in France on Thursday. They broke into France's oldest nuclear plant at Fessemheim last March.
55 greenpeace activists who broke into France's oldest power plant at Fessenheim - near the border with Germany and Switzerland - go on trial on Thursday.
Last March, about 20 of them managed to climb on top of the dome of one reactor.
"We are breaking the rules in order to secure a better future" said the defendants, who said the action last March was to highlight security weaknesses at atomic installations.
"It was my duty to do this and I did it" said Eddy Varin, a French civil servant. "It was legitimate".
The activists include 20 nationalities, 21 Germans, seven Italians and others from France, Turkey, Austria, Hungary, Australia and Israel.
They are accused of trespassing and causing wilful damage to the plant.
The court in the eastern French city of Colmar will determine if the Greenpeace members smashed down a metal security gate with their truck to enter the plant or simply broke a lock to get in.
They could face up to five years in prison if convicted, but in the past protestors who have broken into nuclear installations have been given six-month suspended prison sentences.
In a deal with the French Green party before the 2012 presidential elections, President Hollande promised to close Fessenheim - which was commissioned in 1977 - by the end of 2016.
France is an international leading actor for atomic energy and ranks second after the United States with 58 operating reactors.

They couldn't stop raving about the moves.
Silas Redd gave Penn State fans their money's worth in 2010, despite a limited role in the offense. He had only 77 carries, but he made them count, averaging 5.7 yards per rush. Although the freshman dynamo had no run longer than 30 yards, he left Nittany Nation salivating with his lateral speed, his creativity and his ability to make opposing defenders look bad.
Redd was an entertaining back in 2010. These days, some might say he's more of a boring back to watch.
He's also undeniably a much better back.
Redd has accomplished something few young college players achieve so early in their careers. He has reinvented himself as a runner, and it's paying off for Penn State.
The sophomore just completed one of the best individual months in recent Penn State history. Redd recorded five consecutive 100-yard rushing performances in October -- he had 129 yards or more in each game -- and racked up more rush yards in the month (703) than any other FBS player. He averaged 140.6 yards a game and 5.3 yards a carry.
Showy Silas has become Steady Silas. He's the first Penn State player to record five consecutive 100-yard rushing games since Curtis Enis in 1997.
"My running style has kind of changed from last year," Redd recently told ESPN.com "I'm more of a straight-line runner, one-move-and-go type guy. Not too much dancing. Just try and hit that hole and do what I can."
Redd is doing it all for a Penn State offense that has been inconsistent, to put it nicely, in the passing attack, ranking 88th nationally in passing yards and 106th in passing efficiency. If ever Penn State needed a workhorse in the backfield, this would be the season, and Redd has delivered.
"He's fast, he's quick, he runs hard," said Nebraska coach Bo Pelini, whose team faces Redd and the Lions on Saturday in State College. "He's a really good football player. He's their featured guy. He has good vision. He can hurt you with his speed and his elusiveness outside, and he can run between the tackles.
"He's a pretty complete back."
Few would have labeled Redd as a complete back when he arrived at Penn State as a freshman generously listed at 5-10 and 200 pounds. Lions coach Joe Paterno said last week that Redd struggled with some assignments as well as pass blocking, and had some fumbling issues.
Although the potential was there, Redd had a long way to go.
His offseason training regimen, some of which you can see here, helped him take the next step. He spent three days per week on strength training but focused more on body weight exercises and free weights, working out at a beach near his home in Connecticut rather than in a gym. He spent two days a week on speed and agility training. Redd stuck to a similar program as a high school star in Stamford, Conn.
He showed up for preseason practice at 209 pounds, ready for the grind.
"I never really had a problem with getting hit," Redd said. "I just wanted make sure my body was able to handle it. It has so far, and I've been icing and recovering and doing what I have to do to stay healthy."
Redd didn't set explicit individual goals other than to have a better year than he did in 2010. Penn State was losing its all-time career rushing leader, Evan Royster, and needed a top back to emerge. When top backup Stephfon Green didn't open preseason practice with the team, Redd and Brandon Beachum became the primary candidates to take over.
After averaging 15.5 carries during non-league play, Redd has seen his opportunities spike in Big Ten games. He has carried the ball 28 times or more in four of Penn State's five league contests.
"Obviously, he can run with the football," Paterno said last week. "He's come along well. He's still got a ways to go, but he's playing solid. He's made the most of the time when he's had some opportunities."
Although Redd suffered a shoulder stinger Oct. 22 at Northwestern, he responded the next week and carried the ball a career-high 30 times for 137 yards and a touchdown in Penn State's 10-7 win against Illinois.
Toughness is part of his DNA. His father, Silas Sr., is an ex-Marine who now serves as a police officer.
"He was tough," Redd said of his father. "We've had a tough-love relationship for a long time. Looking back at it, I can say I appreciate it more now than I did then and understand why he treated me the way he did.
"He's proud of me. He knows my potential. He knows I haven't reached my potential yet."
That's the exciting part for Penn State fans, who could use a dazzling distraction right about now.
"Hopefully," Redd said, "I can still give the crowd some excitement."

I'll leave you with one other thing that surprised me. Outside of our hotel lobby is an atrium that leads into other buildings. Upon first glance, I thought the pillar pictured in the far distance (photo above) was architectural.
It was only tonight that we discovered it is a trompe l'oeil hooked rug! Has to be at least 30' tall - absolutely amazing!

When ex-cop Tom Killgannon goes undercover at a bleak moorland prison, the last man he wants to meet is the ruthless gangster he helped to put behind bars.
When ex-cop Tom Killgannon goes undercover at a bleak moorland prison, the last man he wants to meet is the ruthless gangster he helped to put behind bars.
Unprotected and operating alone, Tom must fight to stay alive in a deadly cat-and-mouse game at one of the most isolated and lawless jails in the country.
Welcome back to the dark and menacing world of Tom Kilgannon, the likeable but dysfunctional hero created by bestselling author Martyn Waites, whose mastery of plotting, atmosphere and characterisation have made him the crime king of chills and thrills.
Born and raised in Newcastle, Waites has been nominated for every major British crime fiction award, has won the Grand Prix du Roman Noir, and is now on the second book of his Tom Killgannon series which opened last year with The Old Religion and garnered much critical acclaim.
Tom's perilous new mission is set against an unflinching, eye-opening portrayal of life 'inside,' a grim place that Waites knows only too well after working as a Writer-in-Residence at two prisons, including a young offenders' institution.
The result is a story full of mystery, danger and nail-biting, claustrophobic tension, and peopled by a cast of perfectly imagined, flawed characters, some haunted by memories and some guilty of sins in the past.
Tom, a former undercover police officer, is now in witness protection and living in the Cornish rural village of St Petroc, far away from his old work patch on the mean streets of Manchester.
After sinister events in the neighbourhood, he has become a surrogate father to Lila, a seventeen-year-old girl on the run from an abusive family and boyfriend, and his life has settled into an uneasy calm.
But, once a staunch rationalist, Tom has found that a superstitious side of him has been awakened by the 'untamed' wilds of Cornwall and when he is unexpectedly recalled to active service by his handler, DS Sheridan, he senses something dark and foreboding is 'gathering like storm clouds.'
Tom's mission is to befriend notorious child killer Noel Cunningham, known as the Choirmaster, and find out where he buried the bodies two of his young victims who have never been found.
The only problem is that Tom, who has suffered from claustrophobia since childhood, has to obtain the information from inside Blackmoor prison, a forbidding jail on an isolated stretch of moorland. Only DS Sheridan knows that Tom is there and who he really is, leaving the undercover policeman isolated and vulnerable.
But what Tom hadn't reckoned on was coming face to face with Dean Foley, the vicious gang leader he arrested in Stretford four years ago and whose smile could turn on a breath from 'a charismatic salesman's' to 'fierce and snarling.'
Put away for life by Tom's testimony, Foley is now ruling the roost in jail, 'screws paid off, no one could get to him,' and he recognises Tom. It sets in motion a deadly game with Foley determined to get his revenge.
Tom desperately tries to get in touch with his one contact, DS Sheridan, but he unaccountably cannot be reached and soon Tom is questioning the real reason he has been sent to Blackmoor prison…
Using his knowledge and his empathy for those whose lives he helped to turn around whilst working in prisons, Waites employs the motif of a haunted house and a hint of supernatural as Tom Killgannon fights his own fear of cramped spaces whilst struggling to outwit a child killer, and survive the machinations of the brutal Dean Foley.
As the story moves between Tom's nightmare in Blackmoor Prison and the lives of those he cares for back home in St Petroc, the suspense mounts, and the mystery of Sheridan's mysterious silence and the truth behind Tom's mission are slowly and chillingly revealed.
The tragedy of broken, blighted – and sometimes bigoted – lives lies at the heart of this compelling series and Waites, with his finely tuned social conscience, always writes with compassion and understanding whilst delivering hard-hitting, edge-of the-seat thrillers.
Gripping, gritty and addictive…

Jeremiah 18:1-11 New International Version (NIV)
At the Potter's House
18 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 2 "Go down to the potter's house, and there I will give you my message." 3 So I went down to the potter's house, and I saw him working at the wheel. 4 But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me. 6 He said, "Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?" declares the Lord. "Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel. 7 If at any time I announce that a nation or kingdom is to be uprooted, torn down and destroyed, 8 and if that nation I warned repents of its evil, then I will relent and not inflict on it the disaster I had planned. 9 And if at another time I announce that a nation or kingdom is to be built up and planted, 10 and if it does evil in my sight and does not obey me, then I will reconsider the good I had intended to do for it.
11 "Now therefore say to the people of Judah and those living in Jerusalem, 'This is what the Lord says: Look! I am preparing a disaster for you and devising a plan against you. So turn from your evil ways, each one of you, and reform your ways and your actions.'

PLYMOUTH, N.H. - To many Americans, the growth of women's soccer in the United States began with the boom following this country's success in the Olympics and the World Cup in the late 1990s. But to soccer fans that follow Plymouth State College, the explosion of success of women's soccer started in the mid-1980s.
Plymouth State, which participated in the first nine NCAA Division III Women's Soccer Championship Tournaments from 1986-94, will recognize the achievements of those Panther teams with a "Celebration of Success." A special day has been designated in 2001 to gather the nine teams together and recognize an era that may not be matched for years to come.
The date is set for Sept. 8, 2001, and will be held in conjunction with the PSC women's soccer game that day with Wheaton College. The two Panther head coaches from that era, Phil Rowe and Nancy Feldman, will join with the rest of the players, coaches and support personnel in a banquet to commemorate the near-decade of success.
"Those teams were so successful, they were always being suggested as possibilities for the PSC Hall of Fame," said Peter Cofran '74, a PSC athletic administrator the past 16 years and a member of the "Celebration of Success" planning committee. "Yet each of those teams was unique in what they accomplished, and to pick out one team to honor in the Hall of Fame was too difficult. We decided that they all needed to be recognized, and with the nine-year stretch of NCAA appearances, we thought this would be an excellent way to honor all of them."
The NCAA Division III women's soccer tournament began in 1986, and Plymouth State was among the invitees. PSC made it all the way to the Final Four five times (1986, 1987, 1989, 1991, and 1993), playing for the championship in (1986 and 1993). By 1994, only PSC and UC-San Diego had been invited to all nine championships.
"The players and coaches today are inspired by what those teams accomplished, and use that as a goal for our team," said PSC head coach Rebecca Lisack. "We have a very successful program in 2000, but the stage was set by the successes of those who played before us."
Both former Panther coaches have remained in college athletics, as Rowe is in his second year as head men's basketball coach at the University of New Hampshire and Feldman is in her sixth season as head women's soccer coach at Boston University. Both were excited to be a part of the 2001 celebration.
"I was fortunate to join the Panther Family when women's soccer was exploding on the national scene," said Rowe. "Who will ever forget hosting one of the NCAA's first regional championship? We won the regional over a strong St. Lawrence program and advanced to the first NCAA women's soccer Final Four. We beat Cortland, the #1 ranked team in the country in the semi-final, but lost the first ever national championship game to Rochester, 1-0. That season set the tone for the success that has become known as Plymouth State College Women's Soccer."
"The mid '80s and early '90s were truly a dominant time for PSC Women's Soccer," said Feldman. "Phil Rowe built a dynasty and I was fortunate enough to carry it on. Former standout players at PSC were Division I caliber talents that believed in Plymouth State and its soccer program, and wanted to be a part of the awesome tradition of athletic success. Every single player that wore the green and white ought to come celebrate what was accomplished over the course of those special years, and provide support for the current team's rise to excellence again. It is our program!"
For more information on PSC Women's Soccer's "Celebration of Success", interested parties can call Coach Lisack at 603-535-2732 or Peter Cofran at 603-535-2772.

Wedding season is back again and as I look at all my brides-to-be girlfriend fretting over their to-do-list, I find myself fondly looking back to my very own that happened last year. A particular interesting incident that I remembered was of how worried I was on the wedding etiquette my guests may not have, and upon publishing the post on my dayre, some of them were actually upset with me – particularly on the dress codes. LOL. You'll read on to find out what I'd suggested was nothing out of the ordinary, but perhaps in our culture, people just take things for granted?
1. No +1s
One invitation card = one guest.
Especially when having an intimate wedding that seats less than 100 pax, I would appreciate that my guests do not spring a sudden +1 on me. No kids, no partners, no new flames, and of course, please don't bring your whole family along. I really have no more seats. Besides, I only know you?
2. Strictly adhere to the dress code
I'm not holding my wedding luncheon at a hawker centre so please don't dress like you're going to one. This is not a casual event. So keep your flipflops/sandals/denims/tshirts/singlets at home, have some class. Please.
I have cringed time and again at how awfully some locals dress to weddings. It shows not only utter disrespect to the couple, but the individual as well. There's a time and place for everything. A wedding is not one to dress down. Period.
3. Don't wear white (for ladies)
I'm going to be quite long-winded on the dress codes actually. As chillax as I can be, I reckon wedding etiquette will be the main reason I turn into a full pledged bridezilla. It's basic courtesy, and the lack of it shows utter disrespect to the couple. I have zero tolerance for that.
Wearing white is my prerogative on my big day, not yours. You can wear it any time of the year, just not on my special day, as my guest. It's not that you can't wear any white whatsoever — white accents and prints are fine — but anything overtly bridal, especially white lace, would mean that you're just trying to stir shit up.
4. Don't wear black (for ladies)
This is not a funeral nor a cocktail party, it's a luncheon in a very white space. Lighten up already! I would have close one eye if I'm holding a wedding dinner but nope!
5. Turn up on time
We are starting at 12.30pm SHARP.
Come earlier for canapes (that's to entice you actually haha), latecomers shall not be entertained. It's rude of you to even think of coming late like a typical chinese banquet when it isn't. Long table, western lunch? Sounds Asian to you? Nope, so no Asian timing either.
6. Don't outshine the bride
Don't you even dare think about it.
Unless you don't value this friendship/kinship that is. I really can never understand people that think it is ok to do so. The golden rule of all wedding, the number one wedding faux to ever commit. So don't push your limit, unless you never want to hear from me again.
7. Don't PS me
I can't believe I've almost forgotten to add this 2nd most important etiquette in my list!
For all weddings, I think it is totally fucked up if you RSVP for a wedding only to disappear on the actual day with no valid reason. I, shamefully, only fail to attend once, when I was feeling so unwell I couldn't get out of bed. Other than that, I have always make it a point to attend all weddings I have RSVP-ed to, even if it means flying over during closing period.
Thus, I expect the same for mine.
I won't beat around the bush. Every seat cost money, and I could have cut this lost out if you have informed me beforehand. I have been nothing but thankful to my girlfriends who have personally informed way beforehand that they couldn't make it. Even more thankful to my scoot couple who postponed their holiday plans because they remembered it was my wedding weekend ❤
So yea, those were my expectations and I was very vigilant about it thanks to our small scale wedding. In fact, I even memorized the guest seats at the back of my hand so a quick scan will easily help me identify who is missing or was being an inconsiderate bitch 😡
What are your Do's and Dont's for your wedding? Did any of the above strikes a chord? x
