The Quest to Free Up Free Energy
Brad Olsen, In5D Guest
Waking Times
"If these new energy technologies were to be set free worldwide, the change would be profound. It would affect everybody. It would be applicable everywhere. These technologies are absolutely the most important thing that has happened in the history of the world." ~Dr. Brian O'Leary (Ph.D. in Astronomy, UC-Berkeley), NASA Astronaut, adjunct lecturer at Princeton, Cal. Tech., Cornell, expert on breakthrough energy technologies.
Everyone seems to be caught up in a battle or struggle for energy. We eat energy bars to keep apace. People can feel low or high energy, or sense bad or good energy in others. Our energy costs, especially for transportation, continue to weigh heavily on most American budgets. Our conflicts with the people of the Middle East are mostly over energy – our desire to acquire theirs. And as we shall see now, our quest to introduce free energy is one of the major challenges for the future of this world.
The elite controllers referred to throughout the book Future Esoteric have a history of obstructing anything that threatens their own power structure, including revolutionary new energy technologies. Those with financial interests in the current global petrochemical industry are literally suppressing the very information and solutions we need to restore our planet to health.
The current model of burning oil, coal and gas for our energy needs is woefully outdated. Even nuclear energy is not a sustainable or a dependable clean energy source for our future. In choosing an energy path, and it is a choice, we must consider all the living people, animals, plants and general health of the planet, all of which are affected. Burning oil and coal for energy are smokestack relics of the top hat mentality of the 19th century. Today the hydrocarbon and nuclear lobbies represent a multi-trillion dollar per year industry.
Human beings, in the way we pollute without regard to other living organisms, have become a planetary parasite – tainting nearly every ecosystem on Earth with our destructive and wasteful ways. There must be a better choice! We've put a man on the moon, developed the microchip, and we can communicate and travel globally. Consider the concept of an "over-unity device" where you put a little energy in to get the engine started and then it produces a greater output. Few people are aware that since the 19th century, over-unity devices have been introduced with much fanfare, then quickly disappeared. But why? Is the 19th century invention of an internal combustion engine which runs on gasoline really the best we can do for personal transportation? Or can the manufacture and marketing of an over-unity device be the downfall of the largest corporations on the planet? It must be remembered that burning hydrocarbons equals making lots of money. And making big money means influence and control.
Scientists as far back as Nikola Tesla in the early 1900s have been developing alternative ways to access electricity without combustion. Tesla's breakthrough inventions and patents (those not destroyed or suppressed) have changed the face of energy technologies in the 20th century. Yet his name and work have been absent in science textbooks – and the reason will become clear, as the reader absorbs the facts and checks reliable Internet sources. Tesla discovered the AC current that is used all over the world today. He also developed the ability to transmit electrical energy through the air like radio waves, where the power could be received by the end user with an antenna. He built the Wardenclyffe Tower to demonstrate this capability to the world, and famously stated: "All peoples everywhere should have free energy sources. … Electric power is everywhere present in unlimited quantities and can drive the world's machinery without the need for coal, oil or gas."
Nikola Tesla was not motivated by the desire for status or wealth. He wanted to give the world free energy. But right before his wireless energy broadcast demonstration, banker J. P. Morgan ceased further funding and the project was terminated. Morgan owned the copper mines and was making a fortune from the copper wire used to conduct electricity. Tesla's invention would have made those copper wires obsolete. It would also have upset the business model of Morgan's rich friends in the petroleum industry. If we are to implement free energy in the tradition of Nikola Tesla, then we need to replicate not only his science, but his humanity.
There is clearly a technology block that continues to choke the planet in order to control all its inhabitants. Big Oil and special interests permeating all branches of government and many of its agencies are certainly to blame. Since 1951, the U.S. government has restricted the release of nearly 5,000 energy technology patents that have the potential of ending many of today's greatest crises. For example, in 1955, a car that runs only on nonpolluting hydrogen was shown to the world by completing 110 laps at the Indianapolis 500 Race Track. The plans were bought by Gulf-Western Oil and never seen nor heard about again.
While the nonpolluting aspects of hydrogen are encouraging, the question remains how to create the energy to generate the energy. A number of inventions (some actually patented) have made great strides toward solving this problem. However, it would appear there are powerful individuals in a compartmentalized area of the U.S. government, together with Big Oil itself, which retain and control all of the patents and breakthrough free energy technology; but they continue to suppress this vital information intentionally (and intimidate those who wish to share it) because it is still seen as a threat to their empire. Remember the saying: "What is good for General Motors is good for America, and what is good for America is good for General Motors?" (It is quite possible that various powerful individuals believe this maxim.) Various governmental agencies also see free energy technologies as a threat, or rather, key individuals within these organizations. Conscious or not, the underlying threat and motivation for suppression appears to be fear of loss of professional identity, status, livelihood (for those dependent on academic support) and, yes, greed and control for those at the top of the pyramid. After all, free energy is exactly what it is, free, which does not turn a profit, make a meter tick, or generate any tax revenue.
The U.S. Patent Office has quietly seized around 5,000 alternative energy inventions over the decades, defending this action in the name of "national security." Inventors such as John Hutchison, Adam Trombly, Thomas Bearden, and John Bedini each have invented similar new energy technologies which have the potential to free us of oil dependency and open up access for everyone to a universally abundant energy source. But the startling fact is that their labs have been raided and their devices destroyed. Claiming national security issues, the U.S. Patent office has confiscated thousands of alternative energy devices during the application process for patents. If the free energy inventors persist, one of the warnings commonly given is "Cease and desist your operations … We're terminating your project due to the threats it poses to the international monetary system."
If "free energy" were just a hoax, why would the government take such harsh measures to confiscate plans and equipment? If an inventor cannot be bought, the U.S. government's response to any hint of success from free energy inventors has been to raid their labs with an armed FBI or SWAT team, confiscate their equipment, intimidate the inventor and issue a gag order. They do this because the stakes are very high and the government enjoys huge revenues from taxing the generation of power. As Steven Greer of the Disclosure Project points out, "This information coming out would completely change geo-political power more than anything in human history."
Free energy inventor Adam Trombly maintains that one of the top reasons why the UFO phenomenon is suppressed is because people would clamor to know what drives these crafts and it would force disclosure of "free energy." If we could eliminate the very powerful special interest blocks on free energy, Trombly states, "we would have universal abundance." Such is one of the biggest roadblocks in humanity's march towards a utopian Golden Age.

Keep on pounding the information out there and this whole corrupted insult to humanity will crumble into history.
Elon Musk of Tesla Motors is one novel patent away from demolishing the internal combustion engine and the tyranny of the status quo.
Read the entire blog below to see the new future of energy, not only for automobiles, but for the home and powering a new global grid.
Demolishing the tyranny of the status quo: LENR
Tesla was a genius with several awesome inventions, but he was weak in math. Can you broadcast electricity through the air from a tower? Absolutely! Is it economical for 99.9999% of it to be transmitted into space? Uh….no.
The power came from "space" to begin with. It is the power inherent between the nucleus and orbit paths of atoms, that is almost everything everywhere. In grabbing a bit of that energy and converting it to a usable form for "radio transmission and receiving" there is no waste.
I think that you are mixing up Edison and Tesla by saying that he was weak in math. Edison at first liked the way that Tesla could explain technical things to him without resorting to complex math because it is well known that he was weak in math. However, to invent such things as 3 phase power and explain it to other technical people he would need to have a very strong background in such things as Calculus, Trigonometry etc. Here is a link to an article about Tesla that talks about his strong background in math and engineering.
The time for energy revolution is NOW. You can buy solar photovoltaic cells for 75 cents a watt. Why that isn't a huge game changer is beyond me. Why isn't anyone noticing this and doing the math? I'm building my retirement home on a small fixed income and I'm going off the grid becuase IT'S CHEAPER !!!!
Do the math. Don't let the utilities own the sun and wind, their model is already economically failing.
So how exactly does that work? What do you do when the sun goes down. Cost of lead cell batteries and upkeep? What area are you going to do it in?. PV solar just doesn't work for everybody.
The greedy, arrogant, power-mad oligarchs are constantly fearful of losing money and power, and would rather kill us than allow us to have free energy… or free anything! Free energy has been demonstrated on numerous occasions for more than a century. We must seize free energy, and make it ourselves! Of course. government uses frequency scanners to detect free energy devices operating, and then triangulate upon the signal to raid the hapless inventor or builder. The devices, and their schematics and building plans must be made public! Tesla, way back when, ran a heavy Pierce-Arrow automobile for hours at 90 mph with a 90 hp electric motor powered by a free-energy generator "no bigger than a breadbox"! Can you imagine why Big Oil hates the very concept?
Link of proof? Never heard that one!
I didn't know they could liquify thorium? Link?
my grandad has not long filed his patent for a megnetic generator. check out Chava Energy and the device is called mag-gen. only time will tell as it is down to the investors now.
Tesla's idea to use the earth and ionosphere as a waveguide to transmit power wirelessly was a very bad idea. Besides being very inefficient and requiring unbelievable amounts of power to make it work over long distances, it would irradiate everything in its path.

AC/DC's Brian Johnson to Receive Honorary Degree
The singer will be receive an honorary doctorate from a university in Newcastle upon Tyne.
The singer will be receive an honorary doctorate from a university in Newcastle upon Tyne.
It couldn't have been an easy decision, but vocalist Brian Johnson has informed fans that AC/DC will "very likely" hit the road again before the end of 2014.
An upcoming TV series will feature the AC/DC singer pursuing his other passion, race cars.
When we first heard that AC/DC singer Brian Johnson would be guesting on Sting's new album, we were somewhat dubious. After all, AC/DC's boozy barroom crunch couldn't be further away from Sting's classy jazz-speckled pop.
AC/DC lead singer Brian Johnson will marry his two main passions when he hosts the upcoming radio show 'Brian Johnson's Rockers and Rollers' on BBC Radio 2. The program will run for six weeks and feature Johnson playing a wide selection of his favorite music, as well as a lot of talk about cars.
A new live DVD called "Live at River Plate" just came out, showcasing the band on last year's Black Ice tour, and there is a special 30th anniversary edition of the iconic "Let There Be Rock" concert film on the way, but what about new music? Singer Brian Johnson says the band is talking about it.

Carilion Clinic's Roanoke Campus Achieves Magnet® Recognition for the Third Time.
Submitted by News Team on
100 nurses sitting shoulder-to-shoulder in the auditorium stood and cheered as they learned that Carilion's Roanoke hospitals, Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital and Carilion Roanoke Community Hospital, have achieved Magnet® status for the third time. Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center, recognizes health care organizations for quality patient care, nursing excellence and innovations in professional nursing practice.
"Magnet recognition is the highest honor an organization can receive for nursing services; it is the gold standard for nursing programs. Recognition is a testament of the quality of our patient care and the incredible passion for nursing shown by so many different people from many departments and levels within our organization," said Carilion Clinic President and CEO Nancy Howell Agee. "Achieving—then repeatedly reaffirming—this designation was only made possible through the hard work, persistence and team work of everyone involved. I am so proud that we have achieved this designation once again."
Carilion Clinic Chief Nursing Executive, Carolyn Webster, called the successful recertification a tribute to the nurses who work one-on-one with patients each day. "The real work is on the front lines, and the real care that we deliver is on the front lines and that's really why we're being certified once again," Webster said.
Carilion received its first Magnet designation in 2003. Magnet programs must be recertified every four years, following an extensive review and inspection.

More trouble at the San Francisco Zoo
Two months after a Siberian tiger mauled three men at the San Francisco Zoo — resulting in the death of one of them — two other men were allegedly caught late Thursday throwing acorns at the zoo's two black rhinos. Zoo officials said the rhinos, which are endangered, did not appear agitated by the incident. "I'm so glad the system works well," zoo spokesman Paul Garcia said, referring to the emergency hotline phones that were installed after the maulings by Tatiana the tiger on Christmas Day. (There is no reference int he news story to the use of the hotline phones.)

Violence and the Single Factor
- Tuesday, January 15, 2013
Gun violence is tormenting America.
And most of the shooters are single men.
Consider the horror in Newtown, Connecticut, when a young single man killed 27 people, including his own mother.
This past Christmas Eve day, in suburban Rochester, New York, a middle-aged single man killed two firefighters and his own sister, while seven homes burned.
Also on Christmas Eve day, but in suburban Houston, Texas, a young single man killed a police officer and a bystander after he crashed his vehicle while being chased.
Then there's the guy who shot Arizona congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords along with 18 other people, six of whom died, in 2011. Yup, he's single.
And the guy who burst into the Colorado movie theater last summer, killing 12 people and injuring 59 others? Single.
Scary coincidence, or ominous statistic? Does gender combined with marital status have any role to play in such tragic violence? These are questions we don't spend much time pondering, because for the most part, being male and single comprise two relatively generic characteristics of these shooters.
Indeed, many people more quickly point to the fact that all of these guys used guns to kill their victims. It's been the impetus behind renewed calls for more gun control legislation. But no matter what you personally think about guns and gun control, might that debate really be a smokescreen keeping us from seeing the extent to which our sin nature corrupts our society?
What pushes people to kill, regardless of what they use as a weapon? Although it makes us uncomfortable to talk about, how much responsibility do all of us in our society have when it comes to factors that precipitate events like Newtown?
Particularly those of us who likely have more points of contact with singles in our communities?
Some Cultural Norms are Better Than Others
Yes, each of these gunmen is ultimately responsible for their decisions and actions. And mass murderers don't have to be unmarried males. Yet as we look for answers in these shootings, and seek to prevent violence and preserve human life, are the rest of us ignoring opportunities to model Christ's love, patience, and peace to people who may not fit our targeted social groups?
Besides their gender and marital status, most of these shooters display another similar characteristic: social disengagement. They were either ostracized from conventional groups, developmentally disabled, intellectually brilliant yet socially inept, or, at least in the Texas tragedy, fathering children out of wedlock. Not exactly guys most church singles groups would welcome with open arms.
As believers in Christ, and churchgoers, perhaps we're more accustomed than most people in our society to gathering together with other like-minded people on a regular basis. We have been socialized into a "Christianized" culture. And yes, at its best, America's church culture can provide society with intangible benefits through our patterns of behaviors and expectations. When Paul admonishes us to "not forsake the assembling of ourselves together" he had plenty of good reasons for doing so. And basic, everyday accountability is one of those reasons.
It would be sloppy science to run data on each of these shooters and peg their church attendance – or lack of it – to their crimes. But here's the point: the more interconnected we are, the more we tend to value our fellow humanity. Even if we'd like to throttle some of them by the neck sometimes, we'd never consider murder!
Granted, church isn't the only socialization mechanism at our disposal. But as people of faith, we understand that the power of God is available in unique ways, and for divine purposes, within our faith communities. And we're also held to a higher standard for helping others in our fellowship get involved in serving God.

B.S. in Accounting - New in Fall 2014
The Bachelor of Science in Accounting combines a liberal arts foundation with a comprehensive accounting education.
Introductory accounting and business courses provide students with a strong overview of the functional areas of a business and available methods of analysis. Upper-level accounting and business courses systematically build on this introduction as students are exposed to higher-level theory and analysis as they further develop their accounting skills and knowledge.
The curriculum includes numerous learning opportunities to supplement textbook learning such as case study, financial analysis, computerized simulation, field study, and internship. The accounting major prepares graduates for an accounting career in various industries. The major also prepares students for graduate studies opportunities.
B.S. in Business Administration
Business Administration majors examine organization structures, how businesses are managed, and how they operate. They also consider the economic impacts of the world's rapidly changing environment and the importance of globalization as a business concept. Our students study the application of new technologies, the use of teams to accomplish business goals, and the need for successful commercial enterprises to focus not only on bottom-line profits, but also on ethical, humanistic and social concerns as well.
The Business Administration major provides a solid foundation in the liberal arts and equips students with decision-making abilities and knowledge to progress toward responsible management positions in fields such as marketing, finance, accounting, personnel, communications, brokerage and retail.
Case studies and other simulation techniques give students opportunities to gain skills in applying knowledge to concrete situations. Particular attention is given to personal and societal value issues as they pertain to working in an organization and to balancing the various demands of personal needs, family expectations and career expectations.
Students must select one of these four concentrations within the major: Accounting and Finance; Management; Marketing or Sustainable Business.
Please see the college catalog for specific requirements.
Program Highlights
Business Administration professors bring years of real-world business experience to the classroom.
Students have the opportunity to manage the $150,000 Suzanne and John Hammond Student Managed Investment Fund. In 2012, three students presented their fund investment results at the Global Asset Management Education Conference in New York City.
Integration of off-campus field experiences and internships with classroom study.
Classes are small with frequent opportunity for interaction with faculty.
The curriculum allows for up to a full year of study away.
Colby-Sawyer's award-winning chapter of Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) has won its regional competition and gone on to the national competition in 2012, 2011 and 2009.
Many graduates pursue advanced degrees.
Minor in Business Administration
The minor in Business Administration is designed to be completed with a major in another academic discipline and provides basic functional skills for employment in a wide variety of areas. Its purpose is to broaden the career opportunities of liberal arts graduates combining a working knowledge of essential business principles with the chosen field of concentration.
Note: Students majoring in Exercise and Sport SciencesSport Management and minoring in Business Administration should refer to the Exercise and Sport SciencesSport Management section of the catalog for clarification of requirements.
Please refer to the Minor Programs section of the college catalog for further information.
B.S. in Health Care Management
This major provides a solid foundation in the liberal arts and offers an understanding of health care organization operations, financing and delivery of health care services. This major integrates classroom, research, and field experiences to provide students with the necessary disciplinary knowledge and practical skills to manage the sustainable delivery of high quality clinical health care. This major prepares students for entry-level positions in health care and the knowledge and skills necessary for administrative positions in nursing homes, hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, managed care and other organizations providing health services in American society. The major also prepares graduates for more specialized study at the graduate level.
Please see the college catalog for specific requirements.
Business students take the Business Administration Capstone course, Strategic Management, during the second semester of their senior year. This course allows students to integrate the knowledge of the functional areas of business, such as marketing, finance, human relations, operations and management in one setting.
This Capstone, driven by an advanced computer simulation, puts the student on teams, which run a business in a competitive market. Decisions must be made on financing methods, structure, marketing, marketing research and competitive analysis, operational analysis, business ethics, and human relations. This realistic experience gives students the opportunity to face complex business problems in a friendly environment and creates an effective arena in which to apply the knowledge and skills they have developed over four years.
Baccalaureate awards are presented to the graduating students in each baccalaureate program who are selected by the faculty for their interest in and excellence within the major. The Dr. Margaret Marnie Kurtz Award is given to a student whose major is business administration. Recipients must be full-time students and have completed at least 50 percent of the credits for graduation at Colby-Sawyer.
Pre-Law Curriculum
Students who enter law school come from any number of academic majors. Pre-law students should take courses that allow for continued development in their ability to think critically, communicate and listen effectively, conduct library research, and contribute to the community. A good pre-law education helps students develop these skills and provides a solid foundation in understanding the American political system, understanding social interactions and issues of diversity, and demonstrating basic quantitative literacy skills.
The Liberal Education Program at Colby-Sawyer College, in conjunction with a major program of study, provides many opportunities for students to fine tune the skills needed to be successful in law school. For further information regarding law school preparation students are advised to contact their academic advisor and the American Bar Association.

15 Things You Probably Didn't Know About: Casting Crowns
- Tuesday, November 02, 2004
No one has been more surprised by the record-smashing rise of Casting Crowns (Beach Street Records) than, uh, the seven members of Casting Crowns. They're the fastest selling debut artist ever in Christian music with sales of their self-titled release surpassing 800,000 copies in less than a year. They also made history in late spring when their song "Who Am I" became the first song to simultaneously hold the No. 1 position on Christian Radio and Retail Weekly's Adult Contemporary, Inspirational and Christian Hit Radio charts.
Their follow-up release, a combination CD/DVD titled "Live from Atlanta," finds Mark Hall, Chris Huffman, Melodee DeVeVo, Juan DeVeVo, Andy Williams, Megan Garrett and Hector Cervantes combining five favorites from their debut with one new song in a concert performed for a passionate, hometown crowd.
We asked them to stop spinning from a whirlwind of activity long enough to answer a few questions.
It seems the majority of songs you hear on Christian radio lean toward consolation rather than confrontation. And then along comes the cage-rattling "If We Are the Body." "Honestly, I never knew my music was hard-hitting until I started reading it in magazines. It just comes out that way for me," explains Mark, the 2004 Dove Award winning "Songwriter of the Year." "As believers, we speak, act and write out of our spiritual gifts, and that is what makes Christian music so incredible. The same God who used John the Baptist also used Barnabas."
Don't try to come between Melodee and her violin. Because it's 200 years old, she is extremely protective of it. Her bandmates report that she has a bulletproof, climate-controlled case that's nicer than their bus. She won't allow it out of her sight — even if the band takes a walk outside the bus.
Although the band members have plenty of ways to amuse themselves on tour, they have a rather unusual distraction. The Crowns say that Andy shows his bare belly to any and everyone.
The gang never gets into arguments about where they'll stop to eat when on the road. They have a simple default plan: They go wherever Mark's wife/road manager, Melanie, tells them to go.
What's it like to be easily recognized by Christian audiences? Mark was approached by a girl who said she really loved his music, especially the song "Spoken For." Mark graciously told her, "I like that song, too; but it's MercyMe's."
Most artists, it seems, don't take a straight path from would-be musician to full-time artist. But such is the case with Casting Crowns' crew. Mark was (and is) a youth pastor. Hector was a graphic designer for the church. Andy delivered office supplies and did some interior design. Chris did car detailing. Megan was the front office manager for a physical therapist. Juan edited local cable TV shows. Melodee taught violin lessons and was a real estate agent.
Long before "If We Are the Body" took off, Casting Crowns was planning its foray into the video world. Carl Horstmann, owner of Triple Horse Productions and a member of their church in Atlanta, approached them about creating a live worship video prior to signing their record deal. "After God broadened the ministry of Casting Crowns, Carl still donated much time and effort because he believed in our ministry and our message," affirms Mark.

Description: The stunning Edwige Fenech (THE CASE OF THE BLOODY IRIS, THE STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH) stars in this infamous shocker that packs more grisly violence and sexual depravity into each frame than most any other film in the entire giallo genre. There s succulent flesh aplenty as a mysterious killer dressed in black leather and wearing a motorcycle helmet begins butchering beautiful young fashion models with no mercy and one deranged request: STRIP NUDE FOR YOUR KILLER! Nino Castelnuovo (THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG) and Femi Benussi (HATCHET FOR THE HONEYMOON) co-star in this sleazy 70s classic directed by Andrea Bianchi (BURIAL GROUND, MALABIMBA), now presented in a brand-new High Definition transfer from the original uncut and uncensored camera negative!
The Film:
A leather-clad killer who hides his identity under a motorcycle helmet goes on a depraved killing spree in this unabashedly… sadistic giallo directed by Andrea Bianchi (Burial Ground) and starring Nino Castelnuovo and Femi Benussi. A fashion model has died while receiving an illegal abortion, and after the abortionist is slain, the black-clad killer begins targeting the deceased model's former co-workers. One by bloody one the models begin to fall prey to the mysterious killer, and all of the crimes have one thing in common - the victims were all forced to strip nude before meeting their grim fate.
A 1975 giallo movie that follows in the footsteps of such Dario Argento classics as Deep Red, this one features colourful, baroque set design, and plenty of style, but is hampered by bad acting, a threadbare storyline and lousy dubbing.
Excerpt from Total Sci-fi Online located HERE
Image : NOTE: The below Blu-ray captures were taken directly from the Blu-ray disc.
Strip Nude For Your Killer looks decent, if not stellar, on Blu-ray from Blue Underground. It appears as many might anticipate - no gloss, modest sharpness but pleasing contrast. It doesn't sport as much grain as we have seen from the distributor. This is only single-layered but there are instances of depth and no undue noise. There is no damage and I thought it looked okay. This Blu-ray offers a consistent presentation that excels over SD. Hopefully the screen captures will give you an idea.
English subtitles
English subtitles for Italian language version
Audio :
Blue Underground offer both the English language and Italian versions via decent DTS-HD Master 2.0 channel stereo tracks at 1564 kbps. It sounds okay with the expected sync-issues of post-dubbing present. I actually find that kind of charismatic. There is some depth that punches out of the front speakers and it comes with enough force to surprise. There are optional, bright yellow, subtitles (see samples above) in French, Spanish, English and English for the Italian version. My Momitsu has identified it as being a region FREE disc playable on Blu-ray machines worldwide.
Extras :
Supplements include a 12-minute 'Strip Nude for Your Giallo' which includes interviews with actress Solvi Stubing and co-writer Massimo Felisatti. It is in 480i. There is also both International and Italian trailers in HD and a poster and stills gallery.
Strip Nude For Your Killer has the salacious title but I wouldn't say it was much of a Giallo. Of course, the cheesiness is part of the appeal. There is, predictably, plenty of nudity - but most not highly erotic. This is no Argento - but there are things to appreciate - just not that many. Blue Underground put out great Blu-ray products from a technical standpoint but this might be in their lower half. Edwige Fenech might be the best thing Strip Nude For Your Killer has to offer - but for some - that may be enough - that and the kitschy cover art.

La pretora (1976)
My Sister in Law / La pretora (1976)
In the 1970s it seems that Lucio Fulci really had his finger on the pulse and able to read the mood of the times. As with his giallo earlier in the decade La pretora was perfectly timed to the wave of sex comedies that were being made in Italy. He also here got to direct one of the great stars of this film wave, the beautiful Edwige Fenech.
In La pretora Edwige portrays a conservative and puritanical lady magistrate and her floozy twin sister. This makes for comedy of mistaken identity in the style of farce along with a tale of blackmail and corruption.
As with The Eroticist the movie's humour is used to make some serious points as it calls the establishment on it's corruption and hypocrisy as we meet censors who love pornography in a world where bribes grease the wheels of the judicial machine.
La pretora is a pretty sweet film with a comedy that hits the mark more than it misses. It is also pretty sexy. The film includes a scene where Edwige Fenech is posing for some Snow White themed dwarf sex stills for an adult comic. Priceless.

Question: How do I install my NewBlue plugins so that I can use them in Corel Video Studio Pro X6?
Answer: If you have the 3.0 versions of our products, then all you need to do is download and run the latest installation files for each collection that you own. They will automatically find and install for Video Studio Pro X6. You can find the latest installation files here: http://www.newbluefx.com/downloads
If you have an older version 1.4 or 2.4 serial number, then you can also install the 3.0 version and activate with your current serial number. In this situation, the plugins will install and work correctly; the only difference will be that you will not be able to deactivate the software from your computer should you need to reinstall or transfer it. In this case you would just need to contact our support department and we can take care of the deactivation.
If you would prefer to keep using your original 1.4 / 2.4 installation files, you can install the plugins for use in Video Studio Pro X6 using these steps:
- Run the NewBlue installer and select "Corel VideoStudio" as the installation option
- During installation, a window will come up that says "NewBlue Installation Assistant for Corel Video Studio." This window will probably be blank. Just click OK.
- Complete the installation, clicking "Next" and "Finish" when prompted
- Go to this directory on your hard drive: "C:\Program Files (x86)\NewBlue\ [PRODUCT NAME] \ULead" (there will be a separate directory for each NewBlue product you install)
- Copy any ".vft" files in that directory to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\Corel VideoStudio Pro X6\vft_plug"
- Copy any ".vfx" files in that directory to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\Corel VideoStudio Pro X6\vfx_plug"
- Repeat this process for all the products that you want to install
- The plugins should now show up correctly in Video Studio X6

Speed Scores Winning Goal in 3-2 Victory Over Warner Pacific
October 18, 2008
Olympia, WA - Brianna Speed scored her 4th goal of the season for the game winner in today's hard fought 3-2 victory over Warner Pacific College. Speed scored two goals in today's game.
Evergreen bumps up to seventh in the Cascade Conference rankings after their double wins this weekend.
It was Speed that scored first 18 minutes in. Speed did some fancy footwork around two Knights defenders and the keeper to tap in the ball from 10 feet out. Speed had 3 shots on goal in the game.
The score remained 1-0 through the first period buzzer with Evergreen taking 9 shots to WPC's 3. Kate Green and Jamie Scholtens had a close attempt each and Warner's Haley Ricker nearly had a goal that was saved by ESC's outstanding keeper Sonya Daisley-Harrison.
Daisley-Harrison is now leading the conference in saves and saves per game.
Two minutes into the second period Evergreen added another goal when Emily Anderson controlled the loose ball inside the Knight's goal box. Anderson fed the ball to Green who found net with a 20 yard shot.
It was Green's 8th goal of the season and the total ties her best season's total set in 2005. No Evergreen player has scored as many goals in a season since '05.
Ashley Oakes showed the Knights determination when she scored for Warner 4 minutes later on an assist from Devan Wellington.
The winning goal happened seventy minutes in when a downfielded ball bounced off a Warner players foot and rolled past the defensive line. Speed raced past defenders, won control of the ball and hit a low shot to the right of Knight's keeper Lacey Golden.
Keeping the game exciting was Riley Murray of the Knights, who scored three minutes later unassisted to make the score 3-2.
The Knights threatened to tie the game on a couple of occasions. In the final 15 minutes they had 8 shots and 5 shots on goal to keep the Geoduck defense busy until the end.
Evergreen improves their record to 3-6 in conference play and 4-10-1 overall. The Knights drop to 1-5-1 in the CCC and 2-9-2 overall.
Northwest Christian University comes to Olympia next Saturday for Evergreen's final regular season home game at 2 PM.

Birth of Albert
Nickinson 1863
Death of John Nickinson 1864
Albert Nickinson was born in Cincinnati July 8, 1863. Hattie had been born in Toronto in 1860 so John Nickinson and EJ Phillips probably came to the United States from Canada sometime in the early 1860's. Do we have any idea when? They were associated with Pike's Opera House in Cincinnati

A newspaper clipping gives the program at Pike's Opera-house [Cincinnati] Jan. 25, 1864 as Maggie Mitchell in Fanchon OR the Cricket! with Mr. Nickinson as Father Barbeaud and Miss Phillips as Old Fadet, concluded by a Grand Ballet Divertissement by the renowned Zavistowski Troupe.
Mitchell in Fanchon ad 1864
Nickinson undated
John Nickinson obituaries 1864
London Era, Mar
13, 1864
The Cincinnati Gazette of Thursday, Feb. 19th, says -- "The well-known actor, Mr. John Nickinson, died suddenly on Tuesday evening, under the following circumstances: -- at nine o'clock he called into the apothecary store of Mr. C.H. Brutton, on the north-west corner of Fifth and Elm streets, and reclined upon a lounge. A gentlemen present, feeling fatigued, placed himself by the side of Mr. Nickinson and fell asleep, but was awakened in a few minutes by a lad who drew his attention to a change in the appearance of his companion, whom he found had quietly died by his side.
Mr. Nickinson arrived in this country [what about Canada?] twenty-seven years ago, as a private soldier of the English army. His term of service expiring while the regiment was stationed at Montreal, he turned his attention to the stage, and soon became an accomplished actor, especially in burlesque parts, in which he was quite prominent in Mitchell's Olympic Theatre in its palmiest days. The highest testimony to the good ness of heart of the deceased is the fact that the members of the Opera House Company were all strongly attached to him, which we can venture to assert can be said of but few men who have held a similar position. Coroner Doherty held an inquest over the body yesterday and the Jury summoned upon that occasion returned a verdict of 'Death from apoplexy'.
New York Clipper
of Feb. 27, 1864.
In our last issue we briefly mentioned the demise of Mr. John Nickinson, which occurred at a drugstore in Cincinnati. It appears that abut 5 o'clock in the evening he entered Mr. B.'s store (with which he was intimately acquainted [what does this mean?]) and sat down to rest on the sofa. Shortly after he fell asleep. Prior to the closing of the store the boy in attendance, noticing that he slept very soundly, shook him in order to awaken him, but still he slumbered on. The boy then concluded not to disturb him until the closing of the store, and when he found it necessary to close for the evening , he again approached the sofa and found that Mr. N. was dead.
Word was immediately conveyed to his wife, who at the time of his death was engaged in her professional activities at the Opera House. A messenger was also dispatched for Mr. Brutton , who shortly after arrived with a physician, but on examination, life was found to be extinct. Mr. Nickinson was formerly in the British Army, but turned his attention to the stage, for which he left the service. He was an excellent actor, and dressed and looked certain characters to perfection. It was perceptible to those acquainted with him that of late his memory was less tenacious, and though his make up was exact, his adherence to the script was, to use a stage term, rather "shaky".
He always managed to get through respectably, and very recently gave great satisfaction as Polonius [in Hamlet], Sir Peter Teazle [School for Scandal] and Ephraim Smooth [Wild Oats]. His elder daughters, by a former marriage, are Mrs. [Daniel (Charlotte)] Morrison, now in Montreal, where she is a favorite. and Mrs. C.[harles (Isabella) Walcott, Jr. Mr. Nickinson by his first wife leaves a son and 2 daughters, [what about Eliza and Virginia?] the former an officer in the English service in Canada, the latter prominent members of the theatrical profession.
By his second wife - who is better known by her professional name as Miss Phillips, an accomplished member of the Pike's Opera Troupe , Cincinnati, he leaves two more children of tender age [Hattie was 3 and Albert 7 months old] now solely depending on their mother for support and education. Poor Nickinson was, unfortunately for himself and his family, endowed by nature with too large a heart for his pecuniary welfare, and those he left must struggle on "amid this world's wide way". with no aid but the professional toil of the bereaved mother. The funeral of the lamented comedian took place on the 11th inst. The remains were attended to their final resting place by the friends of the deceased, who will long cherish a vivid remembrance of the genial and amiable departed.
John Nickinson is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery in Cincinnati. http://www.springgrove.org/springgrove/sg_home.HTM

Received after Mr. Nickinson's death from Judge Carter addressed to Miss Phillips
Pike's Opera House, Cincinnati (Confidential)
Cincinnati March 4th, 1864
Mrs. Nickenson [his spelling]
Dear Madam,
Enclosed you will please find a communication to you purporting to come from your departed husband John Nickenson. I thus send it to you because there is something mentioned in it about a dream occurring to you last Sunday night, and if you had such a dream it will be good evidence of the verity of the communication from the other world, and because the spirit purporting to be John Nickenson directed it so to be done.
The communication was written by a medium Mr. William C. Oden who never knew, ever heard of your husband by name. And it was written in a most singular manner too. The medium held the pencil - by the top in his fingers, and the paper moved instead of the pencil. It was indeed a very curious spiritual manifestation.
I know not what you think of those so called spiritual manifestations, but I have seen enough to convince me - that the spirits of the other world -- whether good or bad, do communicate with us here - through mediums - and you will not be surprised when I tell you that with your husband of whom I thought a great deal in life, I believe have held several communications through mediums, since his decease
Yours respectally
A G W Carter

pencil was enclosed with Mr. Carter's letter]

My wife thinks I have gone to Hell, tell her if you please that I have not. I want a talk to her but she fears Spirits. Last Sunday night, I came to her in her sleep. She thinks it was a dream. But it was not. Say to her that I am satisfied with my condition here. I see not such hell as I see on Earth as yet and think I can see before me there is something I wish to say to her and not have the public to know it. [three illegible words]. She fears me -- say to her - watch here.

We don't know whether EJ Phillips had such a dream, or what she thought of the letter. But she kept it, and it has been read by a number of generations since. I'd heard about it long before I saw it.

EJ Phillips was leading woman in Pike's Stock Company in Cincinnati, playing in the Shakespearean and "standard drama".
She was performing with Junius Brutus Booth, Jr. at Pike's Opera House in Cincinnati the night that John Wilkes Booth killed Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865 he acting company had to leave town under the protection of a covered wagon to protect their lives.

EJ Phillips was Emelia in Othello with Junius Brutus Booth, Jr. as Othello.

Othello enjoyed tremendous popularity in both the South and the North before the Civil War. In fact, Othello was performed so frequently in the United States that it was sometimes called "Shakespeare's American Play" (Kaul 8).

I hope McMacardell [the original spelling in Ireland, later changed to Macardell] was successful in his suit yesterday.
We leave here Sunday night for Canton Ohio for 1 night, Tuesday Alliance, Wed Zanesville Ohio 1 night, Thursday Cleveland for 3 nights. I have seen a few old acquaintances here, but more that knew me than those I knew. Have not heard from the Egans or Mrs. Bass -- all my other friends have died or gone away. It makes me feel sad.
We are going to play The Judge tomorrow night. We are busy rehearsing it. It is only for the 1 performance at present to secure the right of the play. Love and Kisses to my dear children Albert, Neppie & Ted from their loving Mother
in this letter is a clipping, no date THE JUDGE
The production in Cincinnati by Ramsay Morris' Comedy company of The Judge was a success, as the Mirror's special wire chronicled. Criticisms of the comedy since received indicate that Mr. Ramsay has secured a valuable piece of property. He will not need to use it for some time to come as Joseph maintains popularity. In the production of the Judge hits were made by George Giddens, Jameson Lee Finney (1863/68-1911), Elsie De Wolfe, Mrs. E.J. Phillips, and Helen Stockwell. Mr. Giddens and Miss De Wolfe received unusually high praise. John Glendenning, an able actor in many lines, seems to have been miscast.
Did Neppie get the [letter] I sent from Cin'iti on the 18th in which I put a V? I hope so. Love and Kisses to my dear daughter Neppie and my grandson Ted from your loving Mother I hope the boy keeps well.

My dear Son,
Miss [Elsie] de Wolfe is quite ill -- so ill that I thought she would not be able to play last night but she did! She and her Mother are being entertained here by one of the Cleveland 400 in grand style -- have their carriage to and from the theatre -- a servant allotted each to wait on them while they remain here. Must cost the man as much as [illegible] dollars per day to keep up such an establishment as Miss De Wolfe described to me last Eve. I am glad she is having such a good time, as I think it will brace her up and next week will be a comparatively easy one as we go on Monday to Columbus for 3 nights and Indianapolis 3 nights.

My dear Son,
The clipping you sent from the Sun is one of many in which Mr. [AM] Palmer still uses my name, but I do not think it will do him any good. I think Chas Frohman will fulfill his contract with me for this season, and then will perhaps want me for the next season. In going to California with Palmers Co I would still be under Chas Frohman's & [Al] Hayman's management. It is a mixed up affair all around. In fact a game of Battledore and Shuttle-cock. And the Actor is the latter and the manager Battledores him where ever he pleases.
Miss Elsie deWolfe did not gain her bit of diplomacy as Miss Ada Dyas & Mrs. Thorndike Boucicault are engaged for A Woman of No Importance. It was a cheeky bit of work for Miss deWolfe and she did not deserve to succeed. And it is well for herself she didn't for, it would have been her third dramatic failure.
We had an accident coming across the Lake Wednesday night. The Steamer, City of Detroit, ran into a schooner and we were near the spot. I feared something was the matter as our engines stopped and bells sounded, whistles blew but I kept quiet and did not know about it until Morning, though I did not sleep until about an hour before landing in Cleveland. Nobody was hurt. The schooner was loaded with lumber which prevented her sinking and a tug took her into port at Amherstburg. The Lake was very rough, but I did not get seasick.
We opened to a very nice house last night and two performances tomorrow. We go to Louisville for three nights. Then to Evansville 1 night, Lafayette 1 & Peoria 1. Three miserable bad towns, hotels and theatres bad. Then go to St Louis. Play in the old Olympic where I used to belong to the Stock Co [with Benedict DeBar].
I do not know where I shall stop in Cincinnati. The Burnet House I did not like last Winter. It was expensive and not particularly comfortable. This is a splendid house. Wish I had one like it everywhere.
I feel pretty well but not as strong as I used to be. And have to be careful what I eat. Indigestion has got hold of me & I have to eat plain food or I have to pay up for it in pain and nervousness. Love and Kisses to all three of you, dear children from your loving Mother

My dear Son,
Enclosed find order for $20. A Thanksgiving and anniversary remembrance to you, wife and Son. I wish you all a pleasant time, a good Turkey and plenty of cranberry sauce.
We arrived here 7 PM last Sunday. Have not had a very pleasant time so far. Yesterday a Matinee and today is very cold and dark. Think snow will fall before night.
We will leave here on Sunday for Louisville. And I shall be in Evansville, Ind on Thanksgiving Day. Hope we will not get there in time for the Matinee, but we may as I do not think the journey is very far from Louisville. On the 4th St Louis. We play at the Olympic Theatre there and I shall stop at Southern hotel which is just opposite theatre.
From Hattie you will get a trifling Souvenir of the [Columbian Exposition] Fair. I did not have time to send them right to you for I got them after the Fair was officially closed. Do not expect much. They are only trifles, for funds were low and time short. Wishing you and Neppie many happy returns of the [wedding] anniversary, and with love and Kisses to you both dear children and to my darling grandson Ted. I remain as always your affectionate Mother

My dear daughter Neppie,
Mr. Smith's farm must be a very desirable one to have caught a purchaser so soon and no doubt at this season farming implements and livestock will meet with a ready sale. Poor Mr. Smith will feel lonely, and I suppose imagine he will soon follow his wife [Neppie's sister Grace had died at 22, after a long illness]. He no doubt feels terribly lonesome without her.
Yes, Nellie's family is nicely alternated, girl & boy, girl & boy. But whether there ever will be a reconciliation or not remains to be found out. Will [Law] called and saw the baby Sunday after its birth, and Mrs. Law called a few hours after its birth, knowing it had occurred. Nellie had a very easy time, and is doing well with plenty of nourishment for the baby They have not yet decided on a name for him.
Mrs. Cady and Mrs. McKenzie called on me, the latter Albert's Sunday School teacher's wife. Mrs. Glessing called at the hotel and wanted to take me home, and if I had had another three days, I think I should have seen everyone from Christ Church [Indianapolis]. Love and Kisses dear children Albert, Neppie & Ted from your loving Mother

My dear Son,
Mr. Dolman is very ill. Dr says it is consumption. He has had hemorrhages and he said to the Dr on Monday night, "Dr, this is the beginning of the end". I have wondered for some time how he got about. And I do not think he will last very long. And no one to take his place in that big family. This in haste from your loving Mother

Independence High School bus crashes; driver charged with DWI
The preliminary investigation indicates that as the bus rounded the curve on Truelight Church Road near Surface Hill Road the driver veered off onto the left shoulder of the roadway. The bus traveled approximately 100 feet along the shoulder of the roadway before striking a double brick mailbox and a deep culvert. After striking these objects the bus traveled an additional 62 feet before coming to an uncontrolled stop.
During the course of conversations with Kelly, the investigating officer formed the opinion that she was under the influence of some type of impairing substance. The driver was placed into custody and transported to Presbyterian Hospital in Matthews for a DWI blood test. The driver submitted to the test and was then transported to the Mecklenburg County Jail for processing. The driver has been charged with Commercial DWI and reckless driving.

Unofficial Seattle Slew Day, you say?
How wonderful. My favorite Triple Crown winner. Why? Because…
1) He looks like a badass with his figure 8 bridle
2) Perfect conformation, I mean just look
3) He was a cheap yearling and I love a bargain. No, really, you can't get me to spend more than $7 on a shirt. What are you going to buy, a one-of-a-kind Seattle Slew or a stick-shift Jetta for $15,000?
4) Without him: No A.P. Indy, no Rags to Riches, no Lava Man, no Bernardini… wait… no, I still love him.
5) He beat Affirmed, who was also pretty cool, twice

The 21-year-old left-back, who thrived for the Swans last season, has become one of new manager Mauricio Pochettino's top transfer targets this summer.
A deal was agreed in principle for the Wales international to move to White Hart Lane last week, but Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins pulled out of the arrangement in search of a better offer.
Spurs, however, remain determined to capture Davies, who is valued by the Welsh club at £12million, and have begun fresh negotiations over a possible sale.
Swansea are thought to be very reluctant to sell a player who has made 71 appearances for the club since his debut in 2012.
Davies became a regular during the 2012-13 season following long-term injury to defender Neil Taylor, excelling under both previous manager Michael Laudrup and current boss Garry Monk.
Davies, who has 10 caps for Wales, signed a one-year contract extension last year that keeps him tied to the Liberty Stadium until 2017.
Tottenham, though, are in need of a left-back, with centre-back Jan Vertonghen filling in for the injured Danny Rose for large periods of last season.
Reports last month suggested they had moved for Sevilla youngster Alberto Moreno, but Tottenham are not interested in the Spaniard.
@parklanespurs, I have since found out his name is Kevin, so shows how much I know about him. Well it seems to me that Rodgers signing ability can be a bit hit or miss, but thankfully his coaching/man management ability seems to be phenomenal but it has to be to make up for his signings on occasion. Well ultimately every signing is a risk so hopefully he works out- lfcfan80

Minor Ache or Major Problem? 6 Symptoms Exercisers Should Pay Attention To
Pages in this Story:
- Warning Signs
- Symptom: Unintentional Weight Loss
- Symptom: An Aching Back
- Symptom: A Sore Breast
- Symptom: A Dry Cough
- Symptom: Tight Knees
- Symptom: Chest Pain
Symptom: Tight Knees
Scenario: Yoga has done wonders for your stress, but the backs of your knees feel tight and tender.
Your downplay: I need to stretch more before class to keep my muscles loose.
Doctors' double-take: Actually, all of those stretching poses may have overly loosened your joints. Women's muscles and ligaments don't hold their joints in place as securely as men's do. "Overstretching can be all too easy then," Jaramillo says. As a result, your muscles and ligaments may get injured and inflamed, putting you at risk for a serious sprain.
What to do: Pay attention to where it hurts when you stretch your hamstring. "You should feel it in the whole length of the muscle," Jaramillo says. "If it's only in the knee, you're probably hyperextending." The good news is that you likely don't need a doctor. Just "be mindful about your form when stretching and be careful not to push your knees past their normal limits," Dr. Laskowski advises. Not sure what those boundaries are? A physical therapist or sports trainer can give you pointers as well as exercises to help you strengthen your muscles and ligaments.
A good knee-stabilizing move: Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you and tense your quads while pressing the backs of your knees down.

Be cautious about who you turn to. As noted in the "Tight Knees" section ... a physical therapist or sports trainer. Be sure that is an ATHLETIC TRAINER if you're looking for a healthcare professional; a sports trainer could be anybody who claims the title.9/25/2013 09:45:52 AM Report Abuse
