BWW Reviews: ONCE at the Paramount - Touching and Simple Storytelling
by Jay Irwin - May 28, 2014
We all know the annoying trend of turning every well-regarded or sellable movie into A Broadway Musical. Do we really need a stage version of the popular film especially when that film is pretty much a musical already such as with the indie sleeper hit "Once"? Well, I don't know if we need it but in this case I'm actually glad we have it as they have taken this lovely romance and just simply let it be told through it's gorgeous music and some very simple staging and the result is a great big sigh (and maybe even a few tears) at the end of a truly entertaining evening.

BWW Review: THE SECRET GARDEN Needs Nurturing
by Nancy Grossman - May 22, 2014
THE SECRET GARDEN needs a good dose of Miracle-Gro to overcome a lack of vitality. A beautiful, lush score is weighed down by the sluggishness of the tale and static direction. The company has the vocals to do justice to the music and several performers shine, but this garden has a dearth of color. (more...)

BWW Reviews: Peggy Eason's New Cabaret Show at Don't Tell Mama is a Poignant Message of Personal Empowerment
by Stephen Hanks - Jun 14, 2014
Peggy Eason is one of those characters who seem to have been made for the New York cabaret scene. She's a bodacious woman who is ubiquitous at the local clubs, possesses a passion for singing, and bills herself as the 'Chocolate Diva,' although on stage she's more like a Red Hot Mama. Eason opened her third solo cabaret show, I'll Show Them All, at Don't Tell Mama on Monday night (she's appearing again at the club on Sunday at 7pm) with the decidedly politically incorrect titled song written especially for her by David Conforte, 'Black, Blind and Beautiful' (Hey, 'African American, Visually Challenged and Beautiful' doesn't have the same ring to it.). But there was little that was incorrect about her fast-paced and entertaining show that was often poignant and funny at the same time. (more...)

CABARET LIFE NYC: Mid-Year Cabaret Review--Best (and Favorite) 20 Shows and Performances (So Far) for 2014

And with the announcement of the BWW Award nominees just four months away, I've offered some projections on the Award categories for which these shows very well might receive consideration. (more...)

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WTAQ) - Should the mayor of Green Bay be able to attend the Super Bowl without having to pay a scalper?
Lots of people are debating that subject, after the Green Bay Packers offered tickets to Mayor Jim Schmitt and other elected officials at face value. Schmitt bought 5 tickets at $1,200 each from his own pocket for Super Bowl XLV between the Packers and Steelers near Dallas.
Brown County Executive Tom Hinz bought 2 seats at $900 apiece, and sold them to a friend for that same price. Both officials told one media outlet that they didn't see an ethical problem with it, because they used their own money.
But Ashwaubenon Village President Mike Aubinger turned down the offer. With ticket brokers charging up to $20,000 a seat and more, Aubinger says the Packers' offer amounts to special treatment.
Green Bay area officials are in discussions with the team over new real estate developments around Lambeau Field.
Packers' spokesman Aaron Popkey said it's always been the team's practice to extend opportunities to its numerous community partners, including elected officials on occasion.
A check with the NFL's Ticket Exchange shows that a third row seat near the Packers' bench costs just over $7,500. The nosebleed seats are going for $2,700.

About Last Night….Posted on May 9th, 2007 – 11:31 AM
By La Velle
A couple things to note off of Tuesday's win as we head into Wednesday's Twins-White Sox game.
Righthander Boof Bonser was in the middle of his best outing of the season when he threw wildly to third in the sixth inning, setting up a three-run burst by the White Sox.
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire has seen enough, Bonser, Sidney Ponson and Ramon Ortiz all have made throwing errors in the last week, so Gardenhire plans on scrapping pitchers batting practice today (interleague games are coming) and will have pitchers fielding practice today, "and try to get some of this stuff straightened out." Gardenhire said.
Bonser was only charged one earned run and now has a 3.96 ERA. He was upset about his throwing error, but said he can take a lot out of his outing. He threw more strikes and really used his curveball effectively. He struck out A.J. and Iguchi looking with curveballs to get out of a two-on, one-out mess in the fourth.
"Everything came together except that one play," Bonser said.
Let's see how far he runs with his outing….

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich says the debt crisis that wrecked Greece's economy is a lesson for the U.S. and other world governments that promise more than they can deliver.
Gingrich spoke Friday at a Richmond forum on health care. He predicted that President Barack Obama's health care overhaul would collapse America's economy.
He said that borrowing $10 trillion over the life of the plan can't work because there aren't that many bond purchasers on the planet.
Gingrich addressed a meeting sponsored by the Center for Health Transformation, featuring conservatives, business groups and other opponents of the new federal health care reform law.
The potential 2012 presidential candidate has been a consistent critic of the federal health care package that passed Congress.

I just discovered a civil judgement on my credit report. This judgement was awarded in a jurisdiction 200 miles away. Being that I am just now learning of this, I was never properly served with court documents. My options here are to pay $3000 to settle or $250 court fees + 600 for a paralegal to file a motion to vacate. Fees are higher at this court because it is for $10000+ cases as the creditor/plaintiff hired a lawyer. I offered the judgement lawyer $1000 and they declined. Does $600 seem steep for a paralegal to file this for me? Should I just hire an actual lawyer? Or should I just pay the judgement lawyer?
Your posting suggests that you've considered a few of the basic options when learning of this default money judgment. Below is a link to my blog on all options when a defendant discovers a default judgment on an unpaid debt. Your posting does not indicate when the default judgment was entered or the location that the proof of service shows service was completed or whether it shows personal versus substitute service. These are important considerations in determining how likely a motion to set aside is likely to be received. Some judges almost never approve a motion to set aside a default judgment more than a few months old. There is no standardized form, the preparer should be familiar with the rules of evidence and rules concerning Civil Procedure and Due Process for default judgments.
You have attempted to settle the debt, which is certainly an option. I have been having success in settling default judgments for my clients, often better than they can get for themselves. There is a difference between hiring an attorney who represents consumers against debt collection lawyers day in and day out, compared with an attorney who handles a variety of areas of law. Thus, before you decide on which option suits you best, please contact an attorney who handles primarily debt collection defense of consumer debts. If you use a paralegal, you will be responsible for all mistakes and be required to appear in court for yourself.
Robert Stempler (please see DISCLAIMER below)
Twitter: @RStempler
I agree with the answers of my colleagues. I write to point out that a paralegal is not authorized to prepare this motion for you. If the paralegal does this, the paralegal is breaking the law and is practicing law without a license.
I have yet to see any motion prepared by a non-attorney, including so-called paralegals, that will accomplish the purpose for which it has been prepared. IMO, you are wasting $600 if you pay a paralegal to draft this motion for you.
Hire an attorney or settle the claim. Better yet, hire an attorney to settle the claim. Good luck.
I would check with a lawyer who knows the rules and law. Do you want to pay 600 to a paralegal when you have virtually no chance? if you have a chance, do you want to risk a paralegal making a mistake? How long ago was the judgment entered? Do you have any defense to the case? If you dont, you may be wasting a lot of money by moving to set aside. You really should get copies of the court file and meet with an atty who is near the curt where this happened. if you hire someone, you dont want to pay for them to have to drive 3-4 hrs to court each way. Do this fast, as the longer you take to file a motion the less inclined a court is to grant it, and there are max time limits as well.
Let's just say that paralegals may not appear in court to represent you, only a lawyer is legally permitted to do that. Hence, if a paralegal prepares a motion that you file in court, you will be the one appearing, in propria persona, to argue that motion. Good luck with that. On the other hand, hiring a qualified civil litigation defense attorney will likely cost you far more than the case is worth. If you owe the plaintiff the debt, then do yourself a favor; try to settle for an amount somewhere in the middle and get on with your life.
In my state, it is considered the unauthorized practice of law for a paralegal to offer to provide legal services. Which brings up the interesting question of how a paralegal could file a motion (or any document) in a judicial proceeding.
Just doing the math would lead one to believe that the motion to vacate would be less expensive than satisfying the judgment. However, there are many factual issues that need more facts to provide a better response - how long has the judgment been outstanding? What ties, if any, do you have with the case? A lawyer could evaluate your chances on the merits of the motion to vacate.
Hiring a paralegal to do an attorney's job is not a bargain,, even if the initial price is lower.
If you cannot resolve the case with the plaintiff's lawyer, you should hire one for an opinion about the merits of the motion to vacate.

I am not aware of any ressurection in any books. Also, other than becoming undead, they can't go around rezzing people in the lore, that is just a game mechanic so you don't have to reroll new characters. People in the lore can't rez anyone at all. If they had ressurection it opens the doors to "why didn't they rez this or that person" and wrecks storylines.
If rezzes really existed in the lore then every battle would be like a BG with the characters respawning and running back in, and there'd be no room for heroes since with rezzes you can't actually risk anything.
so no, no one gets rezzed. Undead can be awakened. So that means someone could probably "rez" Arthas, though he wouldn't be the Lich King anymore.

33 year old male. ~ 17% bodyfat, 215 lbs and 6' tall.
After reading many reviews, I came across a groupon deal for coolsculpting. I purchased a large application and two smaller applications with the intention of doing the large one on my abs and small ones on my love handles.
Had the first procedure done 12 days ago. The initial suction was a bit uncomfortable, but not bad and I got used to it within a few minutes. The person administering the procedure said if the suction is lost the procedure is over, due to there not being a way to restart the procedure mid way through. So, during it, I tried to minimize moving and took shallow breaths (likely unnecessary). Towards the end of the procedure, you can start to feel the machine easing the suction gradually. WHen it ended, my stomach looked pretty much like the videos on youtube and it was very red. The nurse said it would bruise. Well, it did not bruise and the first few days were a breeze. The area numbed and I felt no pain. After perhaps 4-5 days the pain started and was bareable. It sort of felt like a sunburn with a very sore set of abs underneath, with the occasional stabbing pin pain. Around the 6th day, i took one neurontin and found it way too sedating. It made me feel uncomfortably relaxed. After that I decided to open them and take small amounts as needed for the pain, which I did for the next 4 days. By the 12 day (today) the pain is nearly gone and much of the swelling has subsided. I am still fairly numb, but it seems as though the feeling is coming back. I will report back as the days past and I am able to assess the results of the procedure. Also, the next procedures on my love handles will be in a few weeks. I will be sure to add that to the post as well.

Thank you for sharing! I experienced exactly what you have described also. I'm on day 8 and I am just taking IB for pain management. I had both sides of my upper abs done last Monday. I go back on the 26th for my lower (large applicator) and am a bit nervous. This one hurt pretty bad by day 3 and was super swollen. It's still swollen and the pins stabbing feeling comes and goes. I'll be happy around day 12 then when the pain has subsided a bit. :o) Good luck on your future treatments!

Ridgeland Police have recovered the vehicle they believe was used in the Party City murder from October. The white Chevy Trailblazer was found abandoned at a Jackson apartment complex.
The car is believed to have been driven by the gunman who shot and killed the store owner, Robert Adams, on October 26th during a robbery.
"This care was reported stolen to Jackson Police the day before the murder at Party City," says Lieutenant John Neal of the Ridgeland Police department.
Distinct features on the vehicle like decals on the back window, and a non-matching front fender set the vehicle apart, which helped investigators identify it.
The vehicle has been processed for evidence. Investigators are hoping someone recognizes the vehicle to aid in finding the murder suspect.
Neal says, "The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation was called in. They're assisting us in the investigation with the vehicle. They examined it for any kind of forensic evidence. Were in the process now of getting that evidence submitted to the crime lab."
Surveillance video of the crime is also being submitted for a forensic lab in Tennessee, in hopes of enhancing the images.
A $3,500.00 reward is being offered for information. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 601-355-8477.

APPALACHIAN: of a wild and beautiful mountain land, a genre of distinctly American music, and for many, the deep roots of family. For Kathy Mattea, it also represents an essential piece of her musical education and heritage.
In 2012, this Grammy-nominated artist will release a collection of songs that celebrates the Appalachian culture of her native West Virginia. Kathy has gathered songs and stories of bravery, pride and grief that further define and describe the life and times of her home – the Appalachian Mountains.
"Mattea remains one of Nashville's most spiritual singers, and the songs she sings about love lost and humility are as fine as can be."
"Her voice stands out as a rare blend of warmth and power."

'The Big Bang Theory' Season 6 Casts New Love Interest for Leonard, Bad News for Penny?
Though most sitcoms with a bit of will they/won't they inevitably find some contrived excuse to get its lead characters together, every so often one accepts when to back off. In the case of 'The Big Bang Theory,' leads Leonard and Penny never worked perfectly as a couple, allowing the writers some flexibility in which idea to play with. But with things getting increasingly awkward in Leonard and Penny 2.0, might the latest guest star be the straw that applied so much physical pressure it severed the camel's spinal column?

You'll pay a premium for it, but the ClamCase Pro for iPad Mini is the best and most versatile all-around keyboard case we've seen.
With its slim design, fantastic screen, and oodles of power, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 is a superb smaller tablet, and a worthy competitor to the ever-popular iPad Mini.
Loaded with a quad-core Nvidia Tegra K1 processor and an expandable memory slot, the $240 slate will make its debut in China in June.
The new iPad Mini somehow shrinks down the iPad Air into an even more compact package, sacrificing nearly nothing. It's more expensive than before, but it's also the perfect smaller tablet.
The silicone accessory comes with a case and adds a tactile dimension to the iPad Mini's onscreen keyboard.
The S5000 may not impress with components, but at the very least, the 7-inch tablet won't keep you bogged down.
Due to ship soon, the company's $79.99 FastFit iPad Mini keyboard case is designed to compete with Logitech's popular Ultrathin keyboard case.
The Belkin iPad Mini Keyboard Case is one of the better keyboard cases currently available for the Mini -- but it does have its shortcomings.
The otherwise average tablet has the same resolution as the iPad Mini and will be released in March.
If you want the full, polished Apple tablet experience in a smaller package, the iPad Mini is worth the premium price. Otherwise, good alternatives are available for less money.

Red Wings Call Thursday Press Conference With Nick Lidstrom
The Detroit Red Wings have called a press conference for Thursday, May 31 where captain Nick Lidstrom is expected to announce his retirement.
Red Wings Executive Vice President and General Maneger Ken Holland will be present with Nick Lidstrom.
The 42-year-old Sweden native is coming off of his 20th season with the Wings, and still put up big numbers despite being sidelined due to injury for twelve games this past season.
Considered by many one of the best defensman to ever play the game, Lidstrom has won the Stanley Cup four times, once as team captain. He has been awarded the Norris Trophy seven times, given to the best defensman throughout the season.
Lidstroms' seven Norris Trophys are second only to Boston Bruins, Bobby Orr, who won the award eight consecutive times.
Lidstrom has questioned retiring to spend time with his family in recent off-seasons and this may be the year he actually does. If Lidstrom has decided that he has skated off the ice for the last time in his professional carrer he will be leaving behind large skates to fill. Lidstrom has never missed the playoffs and it is leadership on and off the ice that has continued a winning Red Wings tradition.

Authorities say a Gilbert teacher is in custody for allegedly having sex with a 17-year-old girl who was one of his students. Gilbert police say 29-year-old Andrew James Teaters is being held on suspicion of three counts of sexual conduct with a minor and one count of sexual abuse. Police say he was arrested Thursday at his home in Mesa. Court documents show Teaters teaches 6th grade at Gilbert Early College and has been at the school for more than five years. Police say Teaters told them that he got romantically involved with one of his students in April and May and had sex with the girl on school grounds. Authorities didn't immediately know Friday if Teaters had an attorney yet.

A trip to the time capsule.
It's a pretty esoteric little corner of the gun-collecting hobby. Also, it tends to self-select for age, and in multiple ways. For one thing, one apparently needs to have the means to participate. Oh, it's not like machinegun collecting in that one needs to actually be wealthy, but a table full of Lugers or M1911s or High Powers can add up to the price of a nice four bedroom split-level ranch pretty quickly and the number of people under 40 who can blow that kind of dough on a hobby is small. As a result, staghounds and I, both comfortably into adulthood, were probably among the five or ten youngest people in the room.
Given the demographic, then, it was not surprising to see the registry table at the entrance, with the member's nametags all lined up and pre-made and a little basket full of blank floral-bordered "Hello! My Name Is..." stickers sporting a bow on the handle and a sign reading "Girls Name Tags" affixed thereto.
"Which one of us wants to be the girl today?" I wisecracked.
"I'm feeling pretty," said staghounds, reaching for a sticker.
It was hard not to laugh loud enough to disturb the guest speaker, who had a circle of devoted listeners hanging on his every word as he explained esoteric rollmark variations in early prewar PPKs or some such topic.
The hotel conference room was full of a gun show in the classic sense, in that maybe only half the participants were there to sell anything, while the others were just displaying their collections to their fellow aficionados. These ranged from a guy who had a complete selection of literally dozens of .25 and .32 Mauser pocket pistols neatly displayed in wooden egg-crate trays to a gentleman with at least thirty Polish Radoms, each on its own individual wooden stand, ranging from a prewar "Polish Eagle" to the crudest of late-war slave-labor examples. There were oddities that ran the gamut from a .25ACP Webley pocket auto to one of the rare Walther Model 6's, maybe only the second one I've seen in the wild.
It was enjoyable, even if I didn't see anything that made me want to bolt to the nearest ATM and fill my sweaty little hands with cash to set alight. And since staghounds volunteered to wear the sticky nametag, I'll be getting a year's worth of NAPCA newsletters, which are full of the kind of articles that could come in handy for someone attempting to, say, write a book about old pocket pistols...

Hey Tam,
Any chance you know someone who could help me get a mag for a FN .25 auto for a friend?
I don't know the model name/number, but I can send you a picture of the gun. All I know for sure is that it's a .25 ACP and was manufactured in the 50's.
Just figured with the circles you run in lately, you might know someone.

Research! I for one would be anxious to read such a book should "someone" publish it.
You wrote once that you actually do not like to write and prefer to converse verbally. I am fairly familiar with your former mode of articulation and humor, and can only imagine the latter to be something truly special.
So I'm guessing that you're already using that razor-edged interpersonal capacity to milk those old birds with their odd collections. There's a personal genesis for most of what becomes an obsession, and what can be a tiresome harangue when you're behind the glass trying to make a sale, can be a fount of history and knowledge for one's own edification as in my case, or great material for what one anticipates to be the Compleat Book of Seminal Semi Autos as related by and through the snark-filter of T. Keel, in yours (whew!).

The Facts of Khajuraho
January 10, 2007

Media: my pick of the "10 best blogs"
Some might argue that choosing the ten best blogs is like choosing the ten best snowflakes, but even so that's the task I've tackled over on The Independent's media pages.
Sadly there wasn't room for the introduction, where I suggested that the real use of each of these is to provide a jumping-off point to further information; follow the links on each one and eventually you'll land on something that's absolutely perfect. And then of course you grab the RSS feed, put it into your aggregator… and you're away.
- These posts might be related (the database thinks..):
- Comets and dinosaurs: are PR people or hacks the dinosaurs? Or both? (15 March 2006; score: 38.8%)
- Come and hear me drone on about PR and blogs and stuff like that (19 July 2006; score: 33.23%)
- "Simply lift building into place" (4 September 2004; score: 31.78%)

nitpick: boingboing.net is not *only* written by Cory. One reason it's got so much there is that it's a collaborative among several writers. I'm not sure who they all are, but Mark Frauenfelder, who definitely is one of them, is pretty well known (Wired, thefeature.com, etc.)

Hmmm, not convinced by your picks there at all (and of course you clearly missed the best one of all:-) ). Boing Boing and memepool can be pretty dull and stale these days - BB particular seems to have too much noise and not enough links, and I am really not that interested in what Cory is doing (in fact I am not interested at all to be honest) Some of the others are interesting but there are better (for some definition of better)
And of course they are all weblogs - do not bow down to the masses and use the b**g word!!

This is funny. Reminds me of a story my Dad used to tell me when I was a kid. He used to live in Australia and told me how he used to cook kangaroo. First step was to find a big rock. Second step was to put the meat on the grill and place the rock on top of it while it is cooking. After that, eat the rock.
Joke was that the rock would be more tender than the roo. I can't attest to that as I haven't ever tried it...kangaroo that is.
Those cupcake pops look like spoooooky eyeballs to me!
Kangaroo is becoming more popular in Australia lately - it's more eco-friendly than beef, etc. It's not hard to cook, exactly, it's more that people want to treat it the same as other meats but it needs it's own methods. It can be tough or too gamey. But if you get it right, it's delicious and rich. The marinade in the link looks perfect to me, I'll be giving it a go.
Is it possible to find Kangaroo meat outside of Australia? Does anyone know where I could find some in Chicago? I'd love to try this.
I can't believe I missed this post! I had kangaroo meat a few weeks ago in France. It was tender and very tasty. I'd definitely have it again. I haven't seen it for sale in the US though. Here is a link if you want more details.
