@lukejc94 i didn't see it it counts as a spoiler!!!

I watched it the last weekend and I can tell you: The best Marvel Studios movie ever! Over the IronMan movie!! Just two words: F**king awesome!
2 years agoby @LordFolkenFlag
@ghostman Yeah, that's true.
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@themoviefanatic You know it would have been easier to say "Yes, that's what I was trying to say before." instead of having repeat yourself for the fifth time.
@ghostman Yes, but my comment was still there. If i had deleted it and the other persons comment was still there, then the conversation there would appear to not make any sense to who ever might be reading it. So yes, that's somewhat of what i was trying to say before.
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@themoviefanatic Sorry, my mistake, you meant to say "had you deleted your comment someone would have replied about it" but since your comment was not there it wouldn't make sense. Is that what you are trying to say?
@ghostman No, now you're misunderstanding what i am saying. That was not my intention at all! I didn't deleted that comment, because then someone else or you would of have comment on here, and then the conversation here would have appeared to not make any sense. That's why i didn't bother to fix it!!!

I can't wait!..
2 years agoby @2movieguysFlag
@themoviefanatic What a minute...you wrote that because you 'knew' someone would comment about it just to start a pointless argument on here? You mother f*cker did it on purpose!!
@ghostman I didn't bother to fix it because then you or someone else would of commented here by then already, and the conversation on here would look like it didn't make sense from the bottom to the top of the comment section here.
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@themoviefanatic If it supposedly "was" then why didn't you fix it before?
@ghostman Actually, i didn't lie to you. I am sorry for the confusion on that. It was indeed a typo.
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@themoviefanatic Stop lying to me, you said earlier that you thought "they might make "around" the same amount of money" now you're saying that was a typo you made. Which is it liar??
@ghostman Yes, i see what you mean about what i said before, but that just happens to be a typo of mine, that i had accidently made. What i ment before when asking the question was "What if it just so happens to be that they both make around the same amount of money in the end of their theatrical run in theaters?"
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@themoviefanatic Don't lie to me Sean your comment read: "Well, what if they both make the same amount of money during their theatrical run?" Key Words are "both make the same amount".
@ghostman I didn't mean that they would tie at the "exact" same dollar amount, i just thought that they might make "around" the same amount of money.
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@bawnian-dexeus With The Avengers VS. The Dark Knight Rises? Yeah we have plenty of times, but not as bad as when we were constantly bombarded with questions from Sean about how much money Pirates 4 would make.
@ghostman No no, the whole who makes more money argument. Haven't we gone hell and back with that?
2 years agoby @bawnian-dexeusFlag
@bawnian-dexeus What did I get myself into this time? He's not going to give up his opinion, no matter how bad I try to convince him otherwise.
@ghostman Not this again.
2 years agoby @bawnian-dexeusFlag
@themoviefanatic I highly doubt that both Avengers and TDKR will "tie" by making the same exact dollar amount at the box office. That's like saying the tortoise and the hare tied and both won the race.
@monkeyiron2-0 and Sean I checked online, it's sad but true :'(
@Darkonefilms-Randell Well, what if it just so happens to be that they both make the same amount of money in the end of their theatrical run in theaters?
2 years agoby @themoviefanaticFlag
@monkeyiron 2.0 its not a spoiler because ther is a bit when fury shows them old captain america cards that where in phils pocket and one of shield members said they where in his locker yet had blood on them i think he faked his death to get the avengers closer together after all they were really in his locker
@ironskull No offense, but i wont believe that until i see it.

GENERIC NAME: propylthiouracil
BRAND NAME: None available
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Propylthiouracil (PTU) is an oral medication that is used to manage hyperthyroidism which is due to an overactive thyroid gland. It is an anti-thyroid drug that has a mechanism of action that is similar to methimazole (Tapazole). Graves' disease is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. It is an autoimmune disease where an individual makes antibodies to thyroid stimulating hormone receptors on cells of the thyroid gland and then trigger overproduction of thyroid hormone by the cells. The two thyroid hormones manufactured by the thyroid gland, thyroxine (T4 ) and triiodothyronine (T3), are formed by combining iodine and a protein called thyroglobulin with the assistance of an enzyme called peroxidase. PTU inhibits iodine and peroxidase from their normal interactions with thyroglobulin to form T4 and T3. This action decreases production of thyroid hormone. PTU also interferes with the conversion of T4 to T3, and, since T3 is more potent than T4, this also reduces the activity of thyroid hormones. The FDA approved PTU in July 1947.
GENERIC AVAILABLE: Yes
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
PREPARATIONS: Tablet: 50 mg.
STORAGE: PTU should be stored at room temperature, 15-30 C (59-86 F).
PRESCRIBED FOR: PTU is used to manage hyperthyroidism associated with Graves' disease in patients who did not tolerate methimazole, and are not able to receive surgery or radioactive iodine therapy. It also is used to decrease symptoms of hyperthyroidism in preparation for surgical removal of the thyroid gland or before radioactive iodine therapy in patients who did not tolerated methimazole.
DOSING: The initial adult dose of PTU is 300 mg/day divided into 3 divided doses. PTU is usually administered every eight hours. Patients with large goiters may require initial doses up to 900 mg daily. The usual long-term adult dose after initial treatment is 100-150 mg/day.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: PTU may increase the effect of oral blood thinners, for example warfarin (Coumadin). Therefore, warfarin dose changes and monitoring for the effects of warfarin on blood clotting are necessary.
Hyperthyroidism may cause increased elimination of beta blockers (for example, propranolol [Inderal, Inderal LA, Innopran XL)). Once hyperthyroidism is reversed the excretion of beta-blockers may return to normal and less beta-blocker will be needed to provide the same effect.
Digoxin (Lanoxin) blood levels may be increased when hyperthyroidism is reversed in patients on a stable digoxin dose. A smaller dose of digoxin may be needed in order to avoid toxicity of digoxin. Similarly, theophylline elimination may decrease when hyperthyroidism is reversed in patients on a stable theophylline dose. A reduced dose of theophylline may be needed in order to avoid toxicity of theophylline.
PREGNANCY: PTU crosses the placenta and may cause harm to the fetus. If it is necessary to use PTU during pregnancy the lowest effective dose should be used. Since methimazole is associated with fetal abnormalities, PTU is used during the first trimester if an antithyroid drug is needed.
NURSING MOTHERS: PTU is excreted in breast milk in small amounts.
SIDE EFFECTS: The most common side effects are related to the skin and include rash, itching, hives, abnormal hair loss, and skin pigmentation. Other common side effects are swelling, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, loss of taste, joint or muscle aches, numbness and headache. Less common but serious side effects have occurred with PTU therapy. A decrease of white blood cells in the blood (agranulocytosis) may occur. Symptoms and signs of agranulocytosis include infectious lesions of the throat, the gastrointestinal tract, and skin with an overall feeling of illness and fever.
Report Problems to the Food and Drug Administration
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit the FDA MedWatch website or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Reminder - Volunteers Needed for East End Cooperative Ministry Tutoring Program
A Reminder from Professor Luneburg:
Each year East End Cooperative Ministry offers a tutoring program for elementary, middle and high school students (from the Pittsburgh Public Schools) at the East Liberty Presbyterian Church (116 S. Highland Ave.) in East Liberty. Over the years many law students from Pitt have volunteered one hour of their time each week during the semester to work with a student. (The tutoring program operates Tuesday through Thursday between 3:30 pm and 7:30 pm). Subjects tutored vary depending on the grade level of the student and their needs. Most students are looking for general homework help. If you are interested in volunteering, leave a message for Volunteer Coordinator, Tracy Hudson at: 412.361.5549 ext. 403, or e-mail: email@example.com
More information about East End Cooperative Ministry can be found at: www.eecm.org

LAFAYETTE, LA (WAFB) - A federal judge must have secrets, like case negotiations and sealed testimony. However, Federal Judge Tucker Melancon of Lafayette has decided to make something personal very public.
"I didn't realize it was possible for a man to get breast cancer," Judge Melancon says. "And I had noticed that on my left breast, the nipple had kind of gotten somewhat inverted."
He had been working as a negotiator in what would be the end of the East Baton Rouge school desegregation case when he was diagnosed. As Judge James Brady signed the settlement agreement in 2003, Tucker Melancon was fighting for his life. He had stage 3 breast cancer, a mastectomy, radiation, and chemo therapy. Treatment was aggressive and painful. His wife, Diana Moore, did not know how long he would live.
Three years later, cancer resurfaced. This time, it was under and behind his heart. "Once you have breast cancer in your lymph system, it can go to your brain, it can go to your liver, it can go to your bones, and you might have, you might have, there's such a thing as liver cancer, but you can have breast cancer in the liver," Melancon says. Melancon's wife is a sculptor with a studio in Connecticut. It was there that his treating cancer doctor said something unexpected. "He said, 'You know, you're using the same chemicals you used five years ago. It didn't work back then, why do ya think it's gonna work now?' which, as a lay person, made a heck of a lotta sense to me."
Outside the Lafayette Federal Courthouse sit giant lady justice urns. The sculptures were created by Melancon's wife, Diana. Justice was blind but Diana was not. She was determined that Tucker would not die without a fight. "She just didn't wanta hear any of that and so she got on-line and one thing led to another and she found out about the raw food diet."
While surfing the web, Moore found the Hippocrates Institute in Palm Beach, Florida. The couple studied for a few weeks at the institute, and then came home to radically change their diets. Eating items such as raw food and excluding sugar, meats, and dairy were now what they would follow. Like a prize fighter, this takes intense discipline. In his Lafayette condo, Melancon has raw beans and peas, washed to start them sprouting. When they sprout, he says they have 30% more nutritious value. There is also blue algae from the ocean, frozen in his freezer. He dehydrates grains to make delicious and crunchy flat breads.
Melancon fasts one day a week and daily drinks a juice concocted of highly nutritious wheat grass and other natural ingredients. He'll also make a drink using sunflower sprouts, which opens up a whole new quest in his raw food diet. Melancon makes weekly trips to the fresh market in Lafayette, where the manager accepts special delivery of his wheat grass. "If I'm dead a year from now, it will have extended my life the way it did and it gave me the quality of life I enjoy, which ya know, my energy levels are great. I've never been a particularly good-looking fella but people tell me I look better than I've looked in years."

Mudra Space Awareness uses the laboratory of our bodies to bring flexibility to our perceptions and explore awareness beyond the confines of conceptual mind. We uncover our fundamental confidence, letting ourselves return to a joyful space of spontaneity.
"The practice is best experienced freshly with no expectations or conditions. One thing is certain, through practicing Mudra you will discover your own experience.
: –Lee Worley
Mudra Space Awareness was taught to Lee Worley by the late meditation master Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. Its roots lie in the Vajrayana Buddhist traditions of Mahamudra and Dzogchen as well as monastic dance and Western theater. Lee has studied and practiced this profound path since 1976.
During this evening and day of meditation-in-action we will combine physical exercise with periods of discussion. The work is sometimes challenging and sometimes playful, as collectively we endeavor to discover how to co-create with space. Participants with physical challenges are welcome. It is the mind, above all, that we train in awareness. Insights gained through Mudra Space Awareness are helpful for just about every situation of our life.
Lee Worley has been a student of Tibetan Buddhism for 38 years. She is a senior teacher in both the Shambhala and Nalandabodhi traditions. In Nalandabhodi, she is a member of the Mitra Council, a group of Western teachers appointed by Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche.
Lee is a professor of Performance at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado; she also teaches in the low-residency Contemplative Education M.A. program. In the 1960s she was a founding member, actress, and director with Joseph Chaikin's Open Theatre in New York City before moving west.
Lee is the author of Coming From Nothing: The Sacred Art of Acting (Turquoise Dragon Press, 2001).

Former U.S president Jimmy Carter continues a visit to Haiti seeking greater rebuilding efforts for those made homeless by the January 2010 earthquake. Carter called on foreign governments to end interference in Haiti's reconstruction.
Jimmy Carter: "My own hope is to build homes here for poor folks and also to have—to take home 500 ambassadors, who will be promoting the importance for the world helping Haiti with their own elected government, I hope with minimum outside interference, in the decisions made by the leaders that you all have elected."
via Democracy Now!
Attorneys for thousands of Haitian cholera victims have announced a lawsuit against the United Nations for bringing the disease to Haiti and then failing to contain it. Some 450,000 Haitians have been sickened, and more than 6,000 have died, since the cholera outbreak erupted in October 2010. The cholera epidemic is believed to have originated with a battalion of Nepalese troops with the U.N. peacekeeping mission. Attorney Brian Concannon announced the lawsuit Tuesday on Democracy Now!.
Brian Concannon: "The U.N. put out a report in May that demonstrated the U.N. was at fault for the introduction and the spread of cholera, although the report has a conclusion that's disjointed from the facts that are in that, and the U.N. is failing to officially acknowledge responsibility, nor is it responding as if—responding adequately to slow down and—slow down the epidemic and treat the victims."
via Democracy Now!
You approached me with a smile on your lips
and slapped me five, gave me a pound with your ignorance
by telling me that I don't look Haitian.
You shook my hands to welcome me,
open arms of your Statue of Liberty
and then shook my soul with your audacity,
stating that I don't sound Haitian.
Accolades and jubilee,
citing the wonders of Haitian history
yet you say I don't act Haitian?
You asked me if I was sure I was from Ayiti
when you are not sure where you are from
and you carry this mentality
to the doorsteps of your white houses
and your media coverage
showing me impoverished
barefoot and hungry
seeking food and water in the slums,
you show the negative of my cultural drums
in a light of despair.

By Kelsea Stahler, Hollywood.com Staff
Tragedy often brings out the best in people, and when destruction hit New Jersey last week during Hurricane Sandy, that became abundantly clear. Volunteers and municipal workers have been exhausting all efforts to help those in need, and even in a time of extreme political divisiveness, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and President Barack Obama put aside their party affiliations and the election to take care of Americans in need. It's enough to make your heart swell with American pride. And now, we can let our hearts swell a little more, because that party gap has been further bridged by the connection made between outspoken Obama supporter and staunch liberal Bruce Springsteen and the Romney-endorsing, conservative New Jersey governor. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Obama put Christie in touch with one of his favorite musicians, and one who'd been giving Christie the silent treatment, after Christie had experienced one of the most harrowing weeks of his career.
Of course, on Election Day, it's hard not to think along party lines, crossing your fingers that the other guy loses and you party snags the highest office in the land. So it's a heartwarming notion that just one day before Americans flocked to the polls to either reinstate or essentially fire Obama, he took a moment to give the man who's endured sleepless nights and agonizing sights of his home state post-hurricane a gift of sorts: the approval of The Boss.
Now, it's easy to make the takeaway of this event about securing last-minute votes; after all, Christie has been chummy with Obama during hurricane relief efforts even while he hangs on to his initial endorsement of Gov. Mitt Romney for president. But as Christie has expressed on television the day after Sandy hit, "If you think right now I give a damn about presidential politics, then you don't know me."
Despite Springsteen's extreme involvement in the Obama campaign the musician hosted a free Pro-Obama concert in Virginia in late October and was aboard Air Force One when he spoke with Christie his staunch liberal views, and his previous silence towards New Jersey's conservative governor, Springsteen is still a rock star. And not just any rock star, he's The Boss.
And yes, Christie did refuse to go a Republican rally on Sunday, but let's face it, he's still got more work to do in New Jersey than most people could even wrap their heads around. He's a little busy, but that doesn't mean he's renounced his party to be a party of Springsteen's über-liberal, Obama-loving entourage.
That leaves only one option for this chance conversation: A discussion between one fan, who's been burning the candle at both ends for the state Springsteen calls home, and The Boss, who's been giving the guy a hard time for his party alignment.
At a press conference, Christie said that Springsteen expressed his pride in his home state and his eagerness to return home soon, adding, "We had a good conversation today."
No matter what happens at the polls today, whether or not your chosen candidate wins, we can be assured that political parties don't dictate everything. Some things still come down to two people having an open conversation about something they both genuinely love.

What other readers are saying about this title:
Razor said:
I didn't find The Stone Monkey as suspenseful as The Coffin Dancer or The Bone Collector, but the story still had the unexpected twists Deaver works into his Lincoln Rhyme novels. The plot centers on a ruthless Chinese immigrant smuggler, his human cargo and his attempts to eliminate any remaining survivors. Deaver introduces a Chinese cop, whose deductive reasoning skills match Rhyme's and who is also in pursuit of the smuggler. A good read; Deaver fans won't be disappointed.

The road to World Junior Hockey Championship gold kicks off today in Edmonton as the host Canadian squad opens their four-game pool schedule against Finland.
You can watch the game live on TSN, TSN.ca, and TSN Mobile TV, today at 3pm et/noon pt. You can also join our live blog and chat with your fellow fans during the game.
Canada is looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss in last year's gold medal game in Buffalo, where they watched a 3-0 lead after two periods evaporate into a 5-3 loss to the Russians.
There are four returning players from that squad this time around. Mark Visentin will be the starting goaltender, while forwards Brett Connolly, Quinton Howden and Jaden Schwartz look to anchor the forward unit.
Three players with NHL games under their belt will help to bolster the squad. Brett Connolly was loaned to the team by the Tampa Bay Lightning, while Devante Smith-Pelley was released by the Anaheim Ducks. Mark Scheifele, who was selected seventh overall by the Winnipeg Jets in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, also appeared in seven NHL games.
Canada met Finland last week in a pre-tournament exhibition game and won the contest 3-1.
Boone Jenner, Mark Stone and Brandon Gallagher scored for Canada, while Visentin made 22 saves.
Canada beat Switzerland 7-1 in Red Deer on Thursday, but fell 5-3 to Sweden in the final tune-up game on Friday in Edmonton.
Finland, who won gold at the World Juniors for the first and only time in 1998, will be led by the Granlund brothers. Mikael was taken ninth overall in the 2010 Entry Draft by the Minnesota Wild, and Markus was selected in the second-round of the 2011 Entry Draft by the Calgary Flames.
Canada, Finland, the United States, the Czech Republic and Denmark play Pool B games in Edmonton.
Pool A games involving defending champion Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, Latvia and Slovakia will be in Calgary.
All of Team Canada's tournament games will be available live online at TSN.ca, while every game will be available on-demand.

WHY YOU NEED MASS-PEAK: The higher your training (exercise) intensity, the faster you deplete your body of carbohydrates (glucose and glycogen), amino acids (the building blocks of protein), fat (triglycerides, consisting of fatty acids and glycerol), water and electrolytes (e.g. sodium, potassium). Your body's No. 1 and No. 2 nutritional priorities are, in order, replacing carbohydrates and amino acids. Failure to replace carbohydrates can cause your body to catabolize (break down) muscle tissue resulting in serious losses of muscle mass, strength, speed and power. The MASS-PEAK formula mixes up with water or milk to create a delicious shake that begins addressing your body's No. 1 and No. 2 priorities the instant you swallow it. Each serving drives lean carbohydrate (102 g) and protein calories (50 g) into your tired muscles accompanied by Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) (for fast Energy) and Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) (to preserve lean mass). The combined effect is to allow you to gain muscle mass, speed and strength incredibly faster and keep every pound of it thereafter. This protects and enhances your ability to sustain higher muscular forces at higher speeds, also known as 'speed X strength', or power. And when it comes to performance, power is what defines a great athlete. No. 1 Weight Gainer; Weight Gain-Muscle Growth-Recovery. Formulated for Pro, College and High School Athletes; Formulated With Zero Banned Substances. MASS-PEAK No. 1 Rated Weight Gainer: Carbo MASS: Branced And Linear Chain Carbohydrate Restoration Complex (Containing Alpha-(1,4) Linked Glucose Polymers), Glucose Transport And Lean Tissue Support Complex (Containing Chromium Picolinate, Cinnulin PF (Aqueous Cinnamon Extract)(Bark)), Carbogen (Patented Carbohydrate Maximizing Enzyme Complex). ProNitro 7: Grade A Full Spectrum Bioactive Whey Protein Complex (Containing Whey Protein Concentrate, Whey Protein Isolate With Naturally Occurring Critical Bioactive Compounds Including Di, Tri And Oligo Peptides, Beta-Lactoglobulin, Alpha-Lactalbumin, Serum Albumin, And Immunoglobulins), Micellar Casein Phosphoprotein Complex (Containing Alpha, Beta And Kappa Casein), Milk Protein Isolate (Containing 80% Casein And 20% Whey Protein Fractions), Aminogen Elite Amino Acid Spiking Polypeptide Complex [Containing Aminogen(Patented Protein Maximizing Enzyme Complex), Proteolytic Enzymes]. Omega 3-MCT: Flax Seed Powder, Containing Omega 3 (Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA)), Omega 6 (Linoleic Acid (LA)), Omega 9 (Oleic Acid (OA)), And Lignans], MCT's (Medium Chain Triglycerides), Safflower, (Naturally Containing CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid)). Amino Acid Profile: 2 Servings with Whole Milk: 132,000mg of Amino Acids Including: 24g Glutamine, 25g BCAAs (Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) as Glutamic Acid.

The Future of Celebrity Baby Names
It's not easy predicting the names celebs will be picking for their babies. So all we can do is guess, based on clues we've been given in the past, at what names are likely candidates to rise in the celebrisphere—or at least be picked by one or two.
Cool water names are Hollywood hot: think River (Keri Russell), Hudson (Drew Lachey, Marcia Gay Hardin), Ocean (Forest Whitaker), and Rain (Corey Hart). Bay—short but strong and expressive—could work for either a girl or a boy, and would make a perfect middle name as well.
More and more celebrities are willing to show their spiritual side and this name, which has already been seen on the son of Amy Brenneman and the grandsons of Goldie Hawn and Carly Simon, relates to the Buddhist concept of nirvana. More modern sounding and energetic than most religion-related names, Bodhi is a real up and comer.
We admit this is long shot, but… The cool, hipsterish Ace has become a recent celeb favorite, worn by the sons of Natalie Appleton, Tom Dumont, Jennie Finch, and Will Smith's older son is known as Trey. Is there a chance for Deuce to take off for second sons? It's sure a lot cooler than using an actual number.
A number of names from Gone With the Wind have had their day in the sun—Scarlett, Ashley, Melanie, Belle, but this name of a more minor character in the book and film has yet to be discovered. Names starting with "E" are rising in popularity, as are double-"l" names like Lola, Lila, Lulu, Lily, and Lilac, factors that combine to make this a real prospect.
We've seen evocative literary word names in the celebrity world, such as Sonnet (Forest Whitaker), Story (Jenna Elfman), and Poet (Soleil Moon Frye), and now the storybook Fable is emerging as a similar possibility. A rhyming relation to established names like Abel and Mabel helps make it seem like a plausible option.
We predict that this could be the next Hollywood Golden Age Glamour Girl name. There's already been (Marilyn) Monroe, inspiration for the daughter of Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon, (Brigitte) Bardot (David Boreanaz), and (Jean) Harlow (Nicole Richie and Joel Madden), so why not the epitome of old-Hollywood glamour, Greta Garbo?
Helen? Yes, Helen. Look for celebrities to be picking and popularizing great aunt names that you never expected to see again—names like Sylvia, Dorothy, Irene, Clara, Arthur, Warren, and Harvey. The movement has already begun, with Rainn Wilson's Walter, Matthew McFayden's Ralph, and SJP and Matthew Broderick's Marion.
Mateo, Matteo
One is Spanish, the other is Italian, and with the growing celebrity propensity for using foreign names—from their own heritage or not—this could one be a real winner. Easy to spell and pronounce, it makes a more exotic namesake for a Grandpa Matthew. Colin Firth has a son named Mateo, and one of Ricky Martin's twins is Matteo.
What with all the press attention to Pippa Middleton, this name is dressed for success, and we're just waiting for some celeb to start the ball rolling. Pippa is short for Philippa, but we think it's the nickname version that will take off, following in the footsteps of Piper, which Gillian Anderson and other celebs have used.
The Beckhams took Brooklyn, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz captured Bronx, so what New York City boroughs are left? Frankly, we can't see anyone using Manhattan or Queens, but Richmond is the other name for Staten Island, and is a perfectly usable surname name choice, in the mode of Gwen Stefani's Kingston Rossdale.
Jessica Alba gave us Honor, Nicole Kidman brought us Faith, Brad Garrett brought us Hope, and Andy Richter brought us Mercy. We think Verity could be the next old-fashioned Puritan virtue name to become a celebrity fave, with its truthful meaning, feminine rhythm, and stylish V-beginning.
Zinnia could be the next big flower name to come into full bloom, following all the Roses, Lilys, Daisys, and Violets—and even Lilacs and Magnolias that celebrities have already picked. And Zinnia has a lot more pizzazz than the other more delicate florals, with that zippy "Z" opening initial.

If you had a chance to read my first article, then you know that my enthusiasm for the digital media space was ultimately spawned from a desire to enter and win a video contest (grand prize $10K). I didn't win the contest, but that hasn't stopped me from entering at least half a dozen more! (I can be as tenacious as a weed).
Should you have enough time on your hands / interest in me to review my YouTube history , you'll see that I also threw my hat in the ring for LG, Pepto Bismol, 1-800-Flowers, Swiffer and Nature Valley…sometimes I break from contest trolling and dabble in what I like to call my "glass-half-empty view of the world" (take a gander at "Hey Volkswagen Driver!" to see what I mean)….but then my own brand of cynicism can start to bum me out and I inevitably go back to contest submissions (but remember, only those which I think I stand a chance of winning).
One of my recent entries, my "Nature Valley" submission (yes, the makers of those dry but delicious granola bars) was really quite simple in structure. After reviewing the competition (ALWAYS review your competition so you know what you're up against) I could see that the featured videos moved a bit slowly, the angles weren't always fabulous, the audio/narrative was native (as opposed to recorded afterward in the quiet of your own home or sanitarium) and sadly not dubbed in once the video footage was edited and ready for audio to be introduced. It's a seduction really. A slow dance. You can't just throw it all together and hope for the best. Ya just can't. Thus, a lot of the entries had a very "rookie" feel to them. That's not to say mine was stupendous (and admittedly it could use some work) – but I've learned a thing or two about the basics.
Carrie's basics:
1. Keep things easy to watch by recording in a way that allows the viewers' eyes to rest (use visuals that are inviting, not jumpy and that don't move too fast or transition too quickly)
2. Don't keep the native audio on your final cut – silence that and either add a music track to the whole piece or narrate your video so that the sound quality is something you aren't embarrassed to own up to
3. If you're entering a contest, pick unusual landmarks (the Golden Gate Bridge for one!), unusual subjects (costumed or otherwise) and add some original songs/lyrics to your work to make it stand out. Get creative folks! It's your time to shine!
Nature Valley was kinda a no-brainer for me. I mean, I live in San Francisco – literally right up against Baker Beach and the Presidio. I'd be hard pressed to find a better spot to film in and again, stuff like famous bridges, statues, towers, etc. all make for footage that people wanna see. And, sometimes, a little Velveeta in your narrative helps. I'm not saying to go Hallmark on us, but slow down your speech, enunciate and tell me why I want to listen to you for a full 60 seconds. Seduce me with your prose and lyrical ways….I dare you!
When filming something like I did for Nature Valley, you'll need to solicit a friend, significant other, family member (that still owes you from when you moved them cross country) etc., to help because unlike staged home/office settings in which a tripod or flat surface can be used to mount a camera, you'll be moving about and using wide angles, close ups, action – all things that will necessitate a helping hand. (And, if you really don't have ANYONE to help you, go on Craigslist and hire someone).
Lucky for me my bf agreed to help me out and so we set off on a bright Saturday to get my footage. I knew he wouldn't have much tolerance for "retakes" and such and so I limited my favor-asking and ultimatums for the end of the day. I figured, it didn't matter if we got the "perfect shot" every time, what's important is getting enough footage to edit down and wind up with something reasonable to work with. That's the key here. More is more. You don't want to get stuck with just enough to scrape it together and then feel deflated by your shoddy outcome.
After I caught at least 30 different video segments of me walking, hiking, skipping, jumping, blowing on dandelions (blah, blah, blah) all I had to do was take the camera home, upload my clips and then edit it in a way that transitioned smoothly and moved the plot along. Because of the way in which this particular video was put together I could use the "narration feature" in Creator 10 to walk viewers through it. It was pretty cool to discover this actually, and I found I could have the video playing while I narrated so that I didn't have to script it out first – I could literally tell a story and have it sound fairly natural.
I've blathered on long enough and I know you want to read about some breakthrough with Blu-ray – so off I go. But do leave me a comment (positive please - my ego is quite fragile) and I just may write you back! ;)

Transfer Alliance/Honors Program (TAP) Application
March 5th "Student Aid 101" presentation by Young Invincibles and StudentDebtCrisis.org
The Los Angeles Valley College Transfer Alliance/Honors Program (TAP) is designed to help first time college students* who plan on transferring to a four-year college or university. It consists of academically enriched transfer general education courses in which both written expression and the critical analysis of ideas are stressed.
The TAP/Honors sections will provide academically motivated students the opportunity to learn in a challenging and stimulating learning environment. More than 80% of our TAP applicants have been accepted by UCLA over the last eight years. Typically 35-40% of TAP and non-TAP applicants to UCLA have been admitted to UCLA over this same period. Our TAP transfers at UCLA have a better academic performance than non-TAP transfers and native UCLA students.
Contact the TAP/Honors Director Lynn Polasek (818 947-2882, Biology Dept AHS206), Dr. Michael Gold, TAP/Honors Counselor (818-947-2630, Counseling Department) or TAP Counselor Ann Gee (818 947-2631). Both counselors are located in the Counseling Department in the Student Services Annex.
TAP benefits include:
- Priority registration for TAP/Honors sections
- Special Scholarships for TAP students at UCLA, Woodbury University, and at Los Angeles Valley College.
- Eligibility for priority consideration for admission to UCLA, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, Chapman College, Loyola Marymount University, Mills College, Occidental College, Pomona College, Pitzer College, and Woodbury University.
- Assistance with application for transfer to a four-year college or university.
- Increased student-professor contact.
- Association with other academically motivated students.
- A TAP designated counseling team for specialized advisement
- An official TAP designation on the LAVC transcript.
- Access to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) College Library. Click here to apply for a UCLA Library card.
* First time college students that do not have a college degree. Students who have a Bachelor's degree or higher from any institution (domestic or international) are able to take TAP/Honors classes, but will not earn TAP certification or TAP completion on their transcripts or in the transfer application process.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- At 9:59 a.m. Tuesday September 11, 2001, the world would change forever. At that moment, the first World Trade Center building in New York City crumbled down after a passenger plane was flown into it. It was a terrorist attack on U.S. soil that sent shock waves around the world.
A flag ceremony was held Tuesday at the Louisville Fire Academy to remember the fallen heroes who died that day.
"If you're like me you could see the images on TV," said Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer. "But you were having a hard time as to what was taking place and why it was taking place."
What was known at that time was that thousands of lives were in danger.
"You just knew that something was going to happen," said Captain Richard Bliven of the Lyndon Fire Department. "And firefighters were probably going to lose their life that day. I think the question was more of how many."
Thousands of people died that day. Bliven watched it unfold on television as many others did around the world, like Brent Kelly with the Kentucky National Guard, who was celebrating his birthday.
"I remember vividly when the event occurred," said Kelly. "Patriotism swelled in all of us and I was shocked."
Tuesday was a day of remembrance on the 11th anniversary of the attack. But it was also a day of service as many volunteers around Louisville helped build a shelter at the Veteran Affairs Hospital, plant shrubs around the Louisville Fire Academy and did what they could to give back to the community.
"I remember I was hanging tobacco in a barn," said Adam Blackaby as he recalls September 11, 2001. "It was just a very sad day for our country. A lot of people lost their life. It's just great to give back on a day of service."
Fort Knox is also hosting a Patriot Day Ceremony to remember those who were lost.
The Clark County chapter of the American Red Cross will hold its annual September 11 memorial service at 7 p.m. Three thousand flags are already on display, each bearing the name of one of the victims.

Editors' review
The minor quibbles we have with Free YouTube to MP3 Converter have nothing to do with its functionality. This effective freeware is ready to go right out of the box, but can be easily customized by the user.
No effort has been made to dress up the program's utilitarian interface, which consists of seven large buttons, a few fields, and a drop-down menu. A plain text box advises users to paste URLs in the field, and this is all the onscreen guidance you'll need. Once you see the video title in the field, you click Download and the program goes to work. The process wasn't lightening quick, but considering the size of some of our test files, it wasn't bad. Converted files played without a hitch.
The beauty of this converter lies in its simple set up. By default, converted files are saved into the program's folder in My Documents, and they retain the name of the source video. The files are saved as MP3s, normal quality. These settings are easily changed, though, with quick-access buttons and a drop-down menu. The most work a user might have to do is fill out the fields in the optional Tags fields for artist, title, track, and other information.
Sadly, the program doesn't integrate with your browser, but you can opt to have it automatically pick up URLs from the clipboard, which eliminates one step from the cutting and pasting process. It also installs the Ask.com Toolbar and resets your home page to the Ask.com Web site by default, so if you don't want these extras, you'll have to uncheck some boxes during the installation process. These inconveniences are offset by the fact that this program is not only effective, it also costs nothing to use. We highly recommend Free YouTube to MP3 Converter for any user.
Publisher's Description
Free YouTube to MP3 Converter allows the millions of YouTube users to extract the audio from those clips either one at a time or in batches. Users can select to download groups of clips from their favourite's lists, their playlists, show lists, selected site channels, or even from the responses left for another video.

Version 3.9.35 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

We offer two ways to locate information:
Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
Packed with zesty flavors of gooseberry, herb and lime backed by crisp acidity and a minerally tang, this livewire bottling offers tremendous bang for the buck. It displays an elegance typical of cool climate Sauvignon Blanc.
"This has good cut, with citrus peel, chive and sea salt notes that stay racy on the light-weight finish. Drink now. 7,000 cases imported."
87 Points
Wine Spectator
"With 7,000 cases imported, you should be able to find this stellar Sauv Blanc fairly easily. Aromas of sweet grass, gooseberry and pineapple acidity draw you in immediately, while flavors of ripe stone fruit carry through to the clean but not aggressive finish. Lightweight and linear but not meaningless, with a hint of peach pit nuttiness lingering on the close."

Wine Enthusiast
Beyond wines are the second label fo the well-established Buitenverwachting winery in South Africa. When you manage to get your tongue around it, Buitenverwachting (pronounced bay-ten-fur-vachk-ting) is Dutch for "beyond expectation." Nestled at the base of the imposing Constantia Mountain, it's just a few miles from the azure blue of False Bay. The farm's history dates back to 1773, but in 1982, the property was extensively renovated and replanted, and now produces some of the Cape's most classical wines. Beyond expectation, indeed.
South Africa
A long history of growing grapes and making wine, but less of a history on exporting it, and even lesser on
the quality aspect.
At the turn of the century (1900, that is), a surplus of wine in South Africa created a hierarchy of cooperatives, the
biggest and best known being KWV. This organization seemed to favor quantity over quality and had most...Read More About South Africa
