Mad Men: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes (2007)
That weird, orchestral music toward the end
I have watched this series from start (this episode) till the end of season 5. I'm waiting with bated breath to watch season 6. But starting the series again for like the third time, and just having seen this first episode again, I'm going to claim said episode as my favorite, at least so far. Being the episode that introduced SO many important characters to the show, this just crackled. Loved everyone, even Peter Campbell. But, right around 45 minites in, with the episode timing in at 47 minites +, there's this orchestral music that starts to play, that is not only beautiful, but seems to go on and on in violin, "swirls" if you will. Those sounds totally got me, if the episode I just witnessed wasn't enough already. So far, my favorite episode!
My X-Girlfriend's Wedding Reception (1999)
Wonderful! Hilarious!
I was a little puzzled by this movie initially; I had no problem understanding what was going on, but it took me a good 20-30 minutes to really grasp it. Grasp the comedy, that is. The humor here, in this documentary-style picture, is subtle to some, apparently non-existent to some reviewers, but ended up to me to be laugh-out-loud funny. I know it sounds weird to say "I love Jewish people," or "...Italian people," but most of the humor here involves stereotypical humor of both, and I just loved it. But please don't misunderstand me: I have loved many Jewish and Italian folks in my life, and I loved said humor in a genuinely warm-hearted way. Anyway, I rented this film, mailed it back yesterday, but the more I think about it and talk to people about it, the more I wish I still had it and could show it to certain friends and relatives. Not that it was perfect (see my rating). The scene with the 3 girls who attempted to sing "Angel in the Morning" was pretty hard to sit through, and the members of the "band" continuously putting down Jazz music irritated me. But all in all, I'm going now to a website where I can purchase this hilarious film!
The Thing (2011)
This is NOT yet another remake OR re-telling of the classic story!
Why are so many reviewers here so ignorant? This is not yet another remake, this is, well, sort of a prequel to John Carpenter's classic 1982 remake of The Thing From Another World, from 1951. Anyone who's seen Carpenter's remake more than once must remember that, early in that film, two of the characters go to a Norwegian camp by helicopter, and witness some horrific things that had already happened to those people. And that was it. This film, the makers of which had enormous respect for Carpenter's version and didn't want to insult it in any way, decided to let us see just what the hell happened to those Norwegians before the two characters from Carpenter's version got there. That, in a nutshell, is what this movie is. I admit that I initially had a problem with the title of this; couldn't they have come up with a better title? Calling it The Thing suggests that this is indeed a remake of Carpenter's film. But it's not, I assure you. I mean, about the best title I could come up with was The Thing Before The Thing. But that's no good. Anyway, anyone who loves the Carpenter version should see this, for sure.
The Three Stooges (2012)
The Time is Just Right for this Remake
I'm pushing 60. I've been a fan of the original Three Stooges for almost my whole life. Got all the DVDs. Read most of the books. In all that time, I have seen many imitators of all 6 Stooge-members, including Moe, Larry, Curly, Shemp, Joe Besser and Curly Joe deRita. In these guys (Hayes, Sasso & Diamondapoulos), I've never seen anyone come nearly as close to the original Larry Curly & Moe. And that includes the three actors who portrayed the boys in the 2000 TV-movie bio-pic. But it isn't just that. It's the Writing and Directing of the Farrelly brothers here that really does the trick. The funniest things the original comedy trio did were the rapid-fire slapping, poking and punching, set to hilariously beautiful sound-effects. That is all presented here, perhaps even more often than in the original short films of the '30s & '40s. The time is just right for all this. This is another nostalgia trip for baby-boomers like me and so many others today. Presented in the form of one continuous 90-minute story divided into three 30-minute "short films," even the pace is perfect. I was a little leary of the brothers' apparent "need" to include Jersey Shore cast-members into the film, but that decision turned out okay. Loved this hilarious, fast-paced comedy film. ***1/2 out of ****
Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price (2005)
Wal-Mart: A cancer growth on the body of America: Boycott!!
Greenwald does it again! Not unlike his excellent "Outfoxed," about the corruption and absolute "B.S." of cable's Fox News Channel, he here exposes one of the worst corporations in our beloved country, and he does it with clever humor, and with poignant, real-life filmic stories of members of families of honest, good community businesses in the rural areas of America. I believe that the guy who started Wal-Mart was probably a pretty nice person, and owned an original store and a few chain stores. I don't think that that guy would have approved of the shady and downright barbaric practices utilized by his company today. I really don't. Everyone should see this film, and everyone should boycott Wal-Mart. If that doesn't happen, they will just go on profiting, and our country will be wayyy worse off for it.
Oz (1997)
And I Thought Episodes of M*A*S*H Were Multi-Storied!
My favorite TV series of all time is M*A*S*H. The main reason for that is that it is the only series ever to be mostly anti-war. Also, of course, is that it was excellently done in every way, you know, writing, directing, acting, etc. One of my favorite things about that series is that most of the best episodes are multi-storied. That is, two or three significant plots going on all at once! And, in a half-hour show! So many episodes of M*A*S*H are like watching little classic films. Then came Oz, about 14 years after M*A*S*H ended. Yeah, it started out as a summer replacement show. Yeah, there are only 8 episodes per season. Yeah, the show is dead meat now, but I'm convinced it will last forever as a cult classic! Forget about M*A*S*H, when it comes to episodes being multi-storied. This hour-long drama series, most episodes of which run about 55 minutes--without commercials--seems to have about 10 stories going in any given episode. And yes, I would agree with most of the other IMDb commentators here, that the main cast is great. My personal favorite is Dean Winters. Yeah, I know he stole much of his dialog style from Clint Eastwood, but I think he is the most compelling actor on the show. I just got Season 5 on DVD. Only one more DVD release, and my life will be complete. OZ RULES!!!
Norman Mailer in Provincetown (2003)
Great Doc
An absolutely fascinating documentary on an equally fascinating man. Writer. Whatever. What really got me going, in film's beginning, were readings from his early novels. I have never read one of his books, nor paid much attention to most of his controversial bleatings to the public. But hearing some passages from some of his novels, O my god. This man could write! This man was Kerouac and Steinbeck and Stephen King, put together! I love what I heard. I only wish I had the time to actually read his early books, and the money to buy them. The only flaw of this movie, for me, was that he got political toward the end, and his differ with mine. Oh well, unlike some people, I can't hate him for that, I just can't. He's done too much great stuff! See this. *** out of four.
Me, Myself & Irene (2000)
Unbelievably Bad, for Carrey AND the Farrellys!
This film, like so many other Farrelly brothers films, just doesn't work. There must be a thousand attempts at humor here. About 50 of them succeed. Sure, there are some great laughs, especially in the first several minutes, when Tony Cox (a black midget) steals Carrey's wife away, and Carrey's too stupid later to realize why he has 3 black sons! In fact, all the short scenes with the 3 black sons are hilarious beyond belief! Maybe, in some weird way, that is why most of the rest of this falls flat. And yes, that totally includes the "cow" sequence that all other critics said was so funny. Yikes, for me this movie totally tanked, except for what I mentioned above. The humor, for the most part, just falls flat for me. Oh! I forgot to describe the plot, or story! Yeah? Who gives a damn? **
Direct Order (2003)
Disappointing, but still a must-see.
A film that sounded much better than it turned out to be. This film is about many of the military folks who fought in the Gulf war of the early '90s, and how each of them was given a direct order to take an anthrax vaccine. Now, these people are all messed up physically, and some even mentally. It's a bizarre, scary and even sad story that happens to be true, and of course was never even reported on the televised, or print media, owned by Wall Street. But how this amateur filmmaker was able to talk actor Michael Douglas into reading copy in some studio closet for several minutes is beyond me. This film's main problem is that it isn't the least bit imaginative or clever in its execution. Sure, the subject is fascinating, even frightening. But this guy (Miller) makes it a snore! Better luck next time.
A Clockwork Orange (1971)
One of the 2 Greatest films EVER MADE
Yep, right up there with critical darling Citizen Kane, A Clockwork Orange may look dated in some spots, but is too brilliant in every department to be taken off the Brilliant Films list. Master director Stanley Kubrick is at his height of creativity here, both in terms of visual style and storytelling. The original source material is a great novel, and though someone else's version might've looked different, and therefore looked more like what is described in the book, the story is otherwise quite faithful here. The film has everything: Action, comedy, sex, violence, prison drama, and Beethoven. What more could a person ask for? Though Kubrick directed other classic films, like The Shining, Full Metal Jacket, 2001: A Space Odyssey and Paths of Glory, this is undoubtedly his finest hour. A Clockwork Orange is one of the most original films in existence. Like it or not, you'll never forget it... **** out of ****

I have table with next style:
table {
td, th {
height: 20px;
width: 20px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
th {
border: 0;
When I change border width of one or few cells, rows' and columns' width, and whole table width changes in undefined way. It's not so serious, byt I want prevent any visual changes at all, except border of affected cells. Changing these cells width or height not helps. How do I prevent modifying table position and only change border width of needed cells?
UPD Problem is fixed. I just add two rows and columns at right and bottom of the table, and set border to 2px in last row and column.

LeatherfaceView In iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
England's Leatherface are a rare treasure in contemporary music -- a good old-fashioned punk rock band who are neither near-sighted nor necrophiles. But, boy, do they take some getting used to. Frankie Norman Warsaw Stubbs's voice -- well, to call it untutored would be kind. Yet once you get used to it, it's as affecting as, say, Bob Mould's or Jake Burns (Stiff Little Fingers). Formed in Sunderland, Tyne & Wear in the late '80s, taking their name from the central masked character in cult classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Leatherface remained relatively unknown in the U.K. Yet a body of American supporters (the most vociferous being the inimitable Jack Rabid of The Big Takeover) have been singing the band's praises since the 1992 release of the under-promoted Mush. However, by December 1993, following the release of Minx, the band began to break up, leaving Stubbs and drummer Andrew Laing to complete their final mini-album, The Last. Stubbs worked on a number of projects, including releases as Pope and Jesse. However, interest in Leatherface (mainly prompted by the reputation of Mush) eventually led to the reissue of the group's earliest recordings -- Cherry Knowle (1989) and Fill Your Boots (1990). Leatherface re-formed in 1998, and the following year completed their first tour of America, releasing a split album with touring partners Hot Water Music for BYO. It featured one truly heartbreaking song, "Andy" (a dedication to Andy Crighton, the group's longstanding bass player who committed suicide) among other pop-punk nuggets. Fans were rewarded again in 2000 with the release of Horsebox, their first full-length studio album in seven years. Last was issued the following year. The Stormy Petrel LP followed in 2010 and an accompanying tour was documented on 2011's Live in Melbourne: Viva La Arthouse. The 2015 set Razor Blades and Aspirin: 1990-1993 rounded up the group's first three albums along with some rare bonus cuts. If you believe that punk can still matter -- that it can be impassioned, intelligent, and emotive without just retreading the boards -- you should check out Leatherface immediately. ~ Alex Ogg

Scientific Forecaster Discussion
Area forecast discussion
National Weather Service Missoula Montana
327 am MDT Wed Jul 27 2016
Discussion...model guidance have struggled with the next
shortwave that is expected to pass today, so confidence in the
short-term forecast is lower than it usually would be, which
means there may be more shower activity this morning. This
afternoon's forecast remains rather consistent with showers and
thunderstorms to develop with the passage of the shortwave today.
Most of the storms are still expected to develop through the
afternoon in northwest Montana, along The Divide, and through
Lemhi County Idaho and southwest Montana. Some of the storm
activity along The Divide may linger well into tonight as the
shortwave slowly passes. Most of north central Idaho and west
central Montana maintain a mostly storm free forecast.
Storm coverage is still likely to be less on Thursday with
highest chances for storms to be in far northwest Montana,
particularly in the high terrain in and near Glacier np.
A short lived and weak ridge of high pressure will begin to build
over the northern rockies on Friday and linger in the region
through Saturday. This will allow for temperatures to rise a few
degrees above normal for this time of the year, and will primarily
be dry, with exception for the Glacier National Park area for
Friday, and southwestern Montana on Saturday. These two locations
will have just enough moisture and instability in the region to
promote scattered showers and thunderstorms.
As the ridge begins to break down late Saturday afternoon and
evening, winds will increase for much of the northern rockies.
Winds gusting to 25-30 mph in the early evening will be possible,
especially across southwestern Montana and Lemhi County in Idaho. This
will also help with the warming, as mentioned above. Saturday will
likely be the warmest day of this week and weekend.
Confidence continues to grow with a slow moving low pressure
system moving across the Pacific northwest Sunday through at least the
first half of next week. What this means, is the northern rockies
will be slightly below normal in temperatures, and increased
chances for showers and thunderstorms.
A few showers are passing through northwest Montana early this
morning with a shortwave that will continue through the region
today. Much like yesterday, showers and thunderstorms will likely
initiate early in the day due to the early passage of the
shortwave. The locations with highest chances for storms will
again be in northwest Montana, along The Divide, and through Lemhi
County Idaho/southwest Montana. Although most of the thunderstorm
activity will decrease through the evening, there are indications
that the shortwave will provide enough instability to keep
thunderstorm chances through 28/0600z.

Lunar craters may hold ancient remnants of earth
Minerals found in craters on the moon may be remnants of asteroids that slammed into it and not, as long believed, the moon's innards exposed by such impacts, a study has found.
The findings, published in the journal Nature Geoscience on Sunday, cast doubt on the little we knew of what the moon is actually composed of.
It had long been thought that meteoroids vaporise on impact with large celestial bodies.
Unusual minerals like spinel and olivine found in many lunar craters, but rarely on the moon's surface, were therefore attributed to the excavation of sub-surface lunar layers by asteroid hits.
Olivine and spinel are common components of asteroids and meteorites, and have been found on the floors and around the central peaks of such lunar craters as Copernicus, Theophilus and Tycho that are about 100 kilometres in diameter.
A team from China and the United States simulated the formation of moon craters and found that at velocities under 12 kilometres per second a projectile may survive impact, though fragmented and deformed.
"We conclude that some unusual minerals observed in the central peaks of many lunar impact craters could be exogenic (external) in origin and may not be indigenous to the moon," they wrote.
Co-author Jay Melosh, from Purdue University in Indiana, said the finding answers the conundrum exposed by earlier studies that said craters the size of Copernicus were not big enough to have dredged up the contents of the moon's deep, interior mantle.
In an article commenting on the study, Erik Asphaug of the School of Earth and Space Exploration at Arizona State University, said the theory meant material excavated from earth by large impacts during its early days may still be found on the moon.
This suggested yet another explanation for the existence of spinels on the moon, said Asphaug: They came from earth. "Even more provocative is the suggestion that we might someday find earth's protobiological materials, no longer available on our geologically active and repeatedly recycled planet, in dry storage up in the lunar 'attic'.
"Certainly, the potential of finding early earth material is emerging as one of the primary motivations for a return to the moon by human astronauts in our ongoing search for the origin of life."

The Democratic Republic of the Congo:
Major Challenges Impede Efforts to Achieve U.S. Policy Objectives; Systematic Assessment of Progress Is Needed

During the last decade, conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)--one of the world's poorest countries--led directly or indirectly to the deaths of an estimated 5.4 million Congolese. A U.S.-supported peace process began in 2001, and the country's first democratically elected president in 40 years was inaugurated in 2006. However, conflict in the country has continued. In enacting the Democratic Republic of the Congo Relief, Security, and Democracy Promotion Act of 2006 (the Act), Congress established 15 U.S. policy objectives that address humanitarian, social development, economic and natural resource management, governance, and security concerns in the DRC. The Act mandated that GAO review U.S. programs in the DRC that support these policy objectives. In this testimony, based on its December 2007 report, GAO identifies (1) U.S. programs and activities that support the Act's objectives, (2) major challenges hindering the accomplishment of the objectives. For its report, GAO obtained and analyzed program documents for seven U.S. agencies--the Departments of Agriculture (USDA), Defense (DOD), Health and Human Services (HHS), Labor (DOL), State, and the Treasury and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). GAO also met with officials of these agencies and nongovernmental organizations (NGO) active in the DRC.
In fiscal years 2006 and 2007, respectively, seven agencies allocated a total of about $217.9 million and $181.5 million for the DRC. About 70 percent of these funds supported the Act's humanitarian and social development objectives and about 30 percent supported its economic and natural resource management, governance, and security objectives. Agencies' programs and activities included, for example, USAID's provision of emergency supplies, food, and water and sanitation improvements to vulnerable populations; Treasury's provision of interim debt relief; and State's provision of training and other assistance for professionalizing members of the DRC's military. Several major, interrelated challenges--an unstable security environment, weak governance, mismanagement of natural resources, and lack of basic infrastructure--have impeded efforts to achieve the Act's policy objectives. For instance, weak and abusive DRC security forces have worsened humanitarian and social problems, forcing U.S. and NGO staff to curtail some efforts. At the same time, corruption and other governance problems have impeded efforts to reform the security sector and hold human rights violators accountable. Meanwhile, mismanagement of natural resources has fueled continued conflict and corruption, and a lack of basic infrastructure has hindered progress in humanitarian, developmental, and governance programs. The U.S. government has not established a process to assess overall progress toward the Act's policy objectives. As a result, it cannot be assured that it has allocated U.S. resources in the most effective manner. In its December 2007 report, GAO recommended that the Secretary of State work with the heads of the other agencies implementing programs in the DRC to develop a plan for systematically assessing the U.S. government's overall progress in achieving the Act's policy objectives. State agreed with GAO's recommendation.

Nice local, easy to walk to everything
Breakfast of cold cereal is not ides. Very few options at the breakfast bar.
Great old building in a former watermill. Interior lined with fine oak, which smells very good. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Charming.
Very good position, hotel staff very helpful, good breakfast
A disturbing smell from bathroom during the night. The rooms are not very well acoustic insulated, so you might hear what's happen with your neighbours.
The staff was exceptionally helpful and very friendly. They provided helpful and accurate information on the local transportation schedules and always came to the desk to greet us when we came in. The breakfast (included) was quite good, with many selections to choose from, and presided over by a lovely and friendly manager.
This is a 7 room hotel in the middle of Leuven with easy access to all that this charming town has to offer. Peter, the owner, is amazing and the atmosphere is casual, friendly and helpful. I would not stay anywhere else.
Service was excellent and staff very helpful.
Very modern, clean, comfortable, well establishment in an out of the way place. Staff were great. Breakfast was simple but good. If you need to be in or around Geel this is a great little hotel.
clean and modern room
no reception on arrival at 19h !
Newly renovated, well designed small B&B with very friendly and helpful staff
no complaints
breakfast buffet
no pool
the staff were so helpful and nice and the food was great in particular the breakfast.
The location of the hotel meant that the centre of Leuven was within 10 minutes. Parking of the hire car was easy, as I could park almost in front of the main hotel entrance in a metered parking space (free overnight as long as the car is moved by 9am)
The light switches in the room were strangely configured so that I could not turn off the bedside lights without going to the main switch by the door.
We loved your staff and your services. Your staff were friendly, knowledgable, and willing to help us get around the city. Your hosted breakfast was wonderful as well, and it added to the value of our room. We will recomend Hotel New Damshire to all of our friends when they visit Leuven.
The only problems we had were the intense smell of smoke in our non-smoking room and the sound of construction in the morning. We realize that there is not much you can do about the latter, and we were very satisfied with our stay.
Nice architecture, historical, convenient to city center.Good breakfast.
Breakfast was excellent,staff attentive,homely atmosphere.
Would like to have had tea and coffee making facilities in room.
noises (room 1)
Hotel was excellent reasonably priced beautiful rooms friendly staff ,good location
No facility to get tea or coffee in the hotel ?
