It was nice, but I'm not very fond of ginger, and the sweet-n-spicy tang the chutney had just didn't quite appeal to me. It's sort of a cross between apple jam and pickle. My friends liked it a lot, so I probably will make it again. I used it as a sandwich spread on bread for a packed lunch, and the bread didn't dry up as it normally does... a big, big plus...
This was my first attempt at making chutney and it is very very good! Tangy and tart with enough sweet to balance it. I used vidalia onions and was a little nervous about the apple to onion ratio but it's delicious! I used it in a curried chicken salad, fabulous! Thank you for posting it!
Not bad, but I found the onion flavor overpowered the flavor of the apples.
Very tasy and easy too!
So good! I only used one large onion because that's all I had. We had it with pork as well as chicken. Thanks for the recipe.
It was excellent. I used alspice instead of ginger and it worked really good. I was thinking of adding water chestnuts and maybe Cointreau to the next batch I make. We had it with pork chops and pasta. Maybe chicken next time.
This was delicious. The balance between the spice & sweetness was very good. I had to use a golden delicious apple & some sickle pears but it still came out great. I served it as an side with a small wheel of Brie baked in Puff Pastry and it was simply perfect for it. I'll be sure to make this again!
i liked it alot! as for the last reviewer, if you dont like ginger, and the recipe calls for it, dont give it three stars cause you continue to not like ginger. or, because you dont like sweet/tangy/sour, cause that's what it's supposed to taste like. sorry, but for chutney lovers, this deserves five stars.

Mobile electronic devices learn to smell
Siemens researchers have succeeded in developing novel mini-sensors that can detect gases and smells. Mobile electronic devices will be used in future to measure the ozone level in the air and warn if it exceeds the limits, or emit a signal in reaction to the smell of burning or leaking gas. A possible application would be a portable warning device for travelers that would wake them up in case of danger when they were asleep.
"We've discovered new functional principles and then developed new materials to exploit these principles industrially using all the potential offered by nanotechnology," says Siemens researcher Dr. Maximilian Fleischer.

MODIS/Aqua Land Surface Temperature/Emissivity Daily L3 Global 1km SIN Grid V041
Entry ID: MYD11A1
The MODIS/Aqua version-041 (V41) products use a modified version-4 (V4) LST algorithm and version-5 (V5) data inputs. The V41 products primarily address underestimation problems in the V5 Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) products. Recent validation activities reveal that the V5 CMG products underestimate LSTs up to 6K especially in desert and semi-arid regions. The production date for this collection starts from MODIS/Aqua data acquisition date 2007-001. This beginning date is driven by the availability of the MODIS V5 data inputs (level-1B radiance data, geolocation data, cloud mask, atmospheric profiles, and land and snow cover data).
The MODIS/Aqua V41 LST/E Daily L3 Global 1 Km Grid (Short name: MYD11A1) products incorporate 1-km pixels, which are produced daily using the generalized split-window LST algorithm. This algorithm is optimally used to separate ranges of atmospheric column water vapor and lower boundary air surface temperatures into tractable sub-ranges. The surface emissivities in bands 31 and 32 are estimated from land cover types.
The V41 Aqua/MYD11A1 products are projected in a Sinusoidal grid by mapping the level-2 LST product (MYD11_L2) on 1-kilometer (precisely 0.928-km) grids. The MYD11A1 product comprises the following Science Data Set (SDS) layers for daytime and nighttime observations: LSTs, quality control assessments, observation times, view zenith angles, clear sky coverages, and bands 31 and 32 emissivities from land cover types.
The V41 MODIS LST/E products, including MYD11A1, are validated to Stage-1. Further details regarding MODIS land product validation is available from the following URL: http://landval.gsfc.nasa.gov/background.html
This product is ready for use in science applications/publications. Subsequent and improved versions of this product also exist.
The V41 MYD11A1 product's acquisition range started January 1, 2007 (2007-001) and will continue until the V6 reprocessing completes in late 2010. The V41 LST products from 2007-001 will remain consistent with similar products from V4, and hence are amenable to combine them in a time series analysis. Users should exercise caution, and not mix the V4.x (i.e., V4 and V41) and V5 LST products in their analysis.
V041 Data Set Characteristics:
Area: ~1100 x 1100 km
Image Dimensions: 1200 x 1200 rows/columns
File Size: 24 MB
Resolution: ~1 kilometer (actual: 0.93km)
Projection: Sinusoidal
Data Format: HDF-EOS

text: Evolution Petroleum Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. A possible earnings short-squeeze trade in the oil and gas complex is Evolution Petroleum ( EPM), which is set to release numbers on Wednesday after the market close. This is a petroleum company engaged primarily in the acquisition, exploitation and development of properties for the production of crude oil and natural gas, onshore in the U.S. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Evolution Petroleum to report revenue of $4.82 million on earnings of 5 cents per share. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Evolution Petroleum sits at 4.6%. That means that out of the 14.36 million shares in the tradable float, 1.03 million shares are sold short by the bears. This stock has a decent short interest and an extremity low tradable float. Any bullish earnings news could easily spark a solid short-covering rally post-earnings. >>5 Stocks Pointing to the Right Place and the Right Time From a technical perspective, EPM is currently trading below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock has been trading within a range for the past three months, with shares moving between $7.50 on the downside and $8.99 on the upside. A move outside of that range post-earnings will likely setup the next major trend for EPM. If you're in the bull camp on EPM, then I would look for long-biased trades after earnings if this stock manages to trigger breakout trade above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $8.56 to $8.60 a share with high volume. Look for volume on that move that registers near or above its three-month average action of 58,567 shares. If that breakout triggers, then EPM will setup to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance level at $8.99 a share. If that $8.99 level gets taken out, then EPM could tag its 52-week high of $10.14 a share or higher post-earnings. I would simply avoid EPM or look for short-biased trades after earnings the stock fails to trigger that breakout and then moves back below some major near-term support areas at $8 a share with high volume. If we get that move, then EPM will setup to re-test and possibly take out its next major support levels at $7.75 to $7.50 a share. A move below $7.50 will most likely take EPM back down towards $6.80 to $6.50 a share post-earnings. Prev 4 of 6 Next

Tax Benefits of the Disability Access Tax Creditby Michael W. Blitstein, CPA
The Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") requires that employers cannot discriminate against individuals with disabilities. The law mandates that businesses offering public goods or services (including dental offices) be accessible to individuals with disabilities. Because these costs can be expensive, and to encourage private business facilities to comply with ADA provisions, the Internal Revenue Code provides a Disability Access Credit for eligible small businesses.
For each tax year, the amount of credit is 50% of the eligible access expenditures that exceed $250, but not to exceed $10,250. Therefore, the maximum annual credit is $5,000.
An eligible small business is one that has less than $1 million (net of refunds and allowances) of gross receipts for the preceding year, or had 30 or fewer full-time employees. An employee is considered full-time if they worked 30 hours a week for 20 or more weeks...

Retro Roundup: Detana!! Twinbee
By Ray Barnholt Jun 24, 2009 3:16PM PST
Category: Retro Roundup
Tags: Wii Twinbee / Stinger (Famicom Mini 19) (GBA)
Virtual Console: Detana!! Twinbee
Konami | PC Engine CD | Rated E | Shooting | 1992 | 700 Points
I've mentioned
and recommended Detana!! Twinbee
in this context twice already, but I feel some more
exposition is in order, mostly because there are five billion
shoot-em-ups on Virtual Console, and that, for some reason,
becomes a huge point of contention with the self-entitled masses. By
saying you should get Detana!! Twinbee, I'm not implying it's
inherently better than the last shooter that came out. Rather, it's
worth it if you want to check out a different kind of shooter that's
also not terrible.
Detana!! Twinbee was the first of the series to reach the arcade, which also makes it the first 16-bit entry. And as long as I'm rattling off milestones, it is, of course, the second Twinbee game to be officially released in America (after Stinger on NES way back in 1987), even though it is still in Japanese. Who knows why no other Twinbee games made it out of Japan after Stinger, but it might have something to do with the series' incredibly cute, incredibly pastel, incredibly Japanese looks -- Konami probably didn't want to spend the money producing and marketing a title that would almost assuredly be labeled a "baby game" by the public and never heard from again.
Twinbee games may look cute, but they're as challenging as many other
16-bit shooters. This mainly has to do with the frequency of enemy
waves, and the degree of multi-tasking you must do when dropping bombs
on ground targets (though at least the bombs lock-on to the nearest
targets, making it easier to deal with than Xevious). The bosses are
big, too, and even though they reveal very obvious weak points for you
to shoot, they have some sort of other ability to hinder you from
doing so, whether it's simply shooting more bullets or swinging their
big arms or whatever. Not to mention the game's power-up
"system," where you shoot bells that pop out of clouds and
change color/power based on how many times you shoot them, which isn't
exactly a fixed number. And with turbo fire and charged shots, it
becomes really easy to mess up and shoot a bell right after you see
it's the color you want (light blue = powered-up beam). With a lot of
practice, it will soon become second nature, but it's still just plain weird.
It's fun, but it's not Gradius, that's for sure. With its setting and gameplay, Twinbee becomes a different brand of shooting game; one where the odds of grabbing a power-up is far less than other games, and where you'll be cursing out adorable flying robots far more than you ever thought you would in your life. Twinbee's also especially unique in the world of Konami shooters, as it was the only prominent series of theirs that played vertically. And as I've said before, this PC Engine/TurboGrafx port isn't the best version of Detana, but it's still totally playable, and still has nifty music. As it should, because it's an old Konami game.

Another Twinbee in AmericaPosted: Jun 24, 2009 12:00AM PST by Malev721
The Konami Arcade Classics on DS has "Rainbow Bell", the first Twinbee arcade title under a different monicker.
Twinbee fans might want to pick up the import Twinbee Portable Collection on PSP, which has 5 Twinbee titles including the arcade Detana!! (but not Stinger). It's a Best Hits title, show it should be less than $40.

The next VTS round is fast approaching!
By David Delabassee-Oracle on Feb 26, 2016
- Down-to-Earth Microservices with Java EE
- Java SE 8 for Java EE Developers
- Thinking Beyond ORM in JPA
- Developing Java EE 7 Applications with WebLogic Server 12.2.1
I just found out but Sang has been teaching a series of 1-day free training sessions on JavaFX, MySQL and GlassFish. The full list is at his JavaPassion Site but by now there are only 3 days left, so check it out and signup if you are interested and available.
June 24th, Atlanta, GA
It's a shame that engineers don't like free stuff. If they did, Sakthi's tip about the upcoming JRuby Hack Day would be perfect. Experts from Sun and Joyent will show how to develop and deploy JRuby applications on GlassFish (to get some impressive performance and scalability results [1, 2, 3]). A catered dinner and open bar will also be provided.
But I'm sure none of you would be interested in getting all of that for free. So you won't need details like the time (August 8), location (Axis Cafe in San Francisco), or registration page (hurry to guarantee your spot).
Like I said--it's a real shame. ;)
Sang is doing another of his free online courses. This time is Java EE with Passion! The course covers quite a bit of material, with more emphasis on the Web Tier area, but some of the new Java EE 5 APIs are also covered. This course is conducted by email; check What is like to take this course.
Coincidentally, the new, in-depth, course on Java EE 5 from Sun is also available; I'll describe it in an entry tomorrow morning.
Topics include Open Source, GlassFish, JavaEE, Cloud, Web Services, WebSockets, Jersey, Tyrus, Metro, Grizzly and more

All over the country Americans on Medicare Parts A and B are are now seeing that with the correct Medigap Insurance Policy they will be able to:
Research a Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan right now with the plans you wish to have at the rate that works within your budget.
Safeguard your health and secure your assets with a Medigap Plan
Like the majority of Medicare patients whom our company have helped since we first began years ago, you have assuredly noticed that trying to make the decision on the right Medicare Supplemental Policy can be painful to say the least. Furthermore, attempting to find a Medicare Supplemental Insurance Carrier to work with when examining costs is maddening as well.
Fortunately, there is an alternative. Finding a Medigap Company that you can work with is easy if you consider:
Buy a Medicare Supplemental Plan through our company and feel great about both your more affordable costs and the comprehensive policies.
However that is not everything we do for you. Did you ever tried before to enroll in an insurance plan like a Medicare Supplemental? All over the country people 65 years of age and older are sadly denied a policy or gotten limited coverage on their policy that they were blind sided by only after they had taken care of the first premium. Plus way too often there are huge difficulties involved in getting that payment returned or procuring other acceptable Medigap Insurance Plan or other policies.
Things like this don't happen to our customers. Our Medigap Insurance Agents in-house are also highly trained "field underwriters.†So we shall not only help you in finding the best for Medigap Costs, but we shall insure that you'll be approved for the that particular plan first, before dealing with any paperwork. By answering a few quick questions about your current health and medical history, you could easily approved for Medicare Supplemental Plans which should enroll you you the first time, without stressful hassles or fears you could revoking plans.
We will not 3 a specific plan until we are certain your approval will be guaranteed by the Medigap Insurance carrier Furthermore, our Lowest Rate Guarantee means that you never ever pay a dime because of our brokerage services and are always making payments the inexpensive available cost on the recommended plan you apply for.
Also, for your convenience, we have made deals with with all of our Medicare Supplemental Companies to allow you sign up for their plans with an agent on the phone quickly and with no hassles. You get the least expensive Medigap Insurance Prices available in your area, coverage for the rest of your days and, if you sign up for a Medigap Insurance Plan F, you'll never need to pay a penny in the future for Medicare-covered medical necessities.
If you want the best a Medicare Supplemental Plan F is the perfect plan since it features:
Medigap is another name applied to health insurance plans usually called Medicare Supplemental Insurance. These Medigap Plans augment the gaps in Original health coverage left by Medicare Parts A & B and are made to fit with Medicare like a key fits into a lock.
Medigap Insurance is not an substitute for traditional Medicare like Medicare Advantage Policy, but instead works together with traditional Medicare. And, Medigap Plans differ from Medicare Advantage Plans because they've no deductibles, no co-pays and no worries about being "in nework" as to where you can receive medical treatment..
Did you know that if you sign up for the perfect Medicare Supplemental Insurance Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policy like Medicare Supplement Plan F you'll never have a need to fork over a single penny when you get prescribed treatment in a specialty treatment center, physician's office or hospital that accepts standard Medicare.
So this means that you select Medicare Supplement Plan F, if your hospital or doctor are $1 or $1,000,000, you will will not ever have to pay any additional bills for hospital or doctor as long as Medicare green-lights your medical procedures.
Medicare Supplemental Policies: How they work
If you want medical attention with a doctor, specialty treatment center, or hospital, all you have to do is show them your Medicare Supplement Insurance card to the doctor, hospital or specialty treatment center. Then everything will, almost magically, be taken care of for you.
Consider that, when your claim is submitted with Medicare for Medicare Part B charges, Medicare most likely will send your claim direct to your Medicare Supplement Company without you needing to do anything. After that, your Medigap Insurance Provider will take care of the claim, often without it ever touching human hands
With a easy comparison of Medigap Plans, you'll see the one that's right for your health and your budget and then you won't have to worry about extra medical expenses ever again.. To repeat, if you decide on a Medicare Supplemental Plan F from us, you will never receive a leftover healthcare expenses to deal with.
We strongly believe that doctors should be able to to determine what the absolute best medical treatment is for you while your Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policies makes sure that you are not loaded down with health care expenses. What's more, when you sign up for a Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policies like the recommended Medicare Supplemental Plan F it's YOURS FOREVER as long as you keep paying the premiums. Unlike Medicare Advantage Plans, if you constantly pay the premiums, the Medigap Insurance Company won't ever expropriate your coverage away
Just like the hundreds of thousands of people over 65 we have helped down through the years, you have found that trying to make a decision on the correct Medicare Supplement Insurance Policies is aggravating and enough to make you lose sleep over it.. And, attempting to obtain a Medicare Supplemental Insurance Provider to work with as you assess Medicare Insurance Quotes is often wearisome.
Good news though, it doesn't have to be that way. Talking to a a Medigap Plan Broker you can put your trust in easy as pie because of the following:
Plus there's no need to pay for our services.
Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policies: Why shop with our company?
If you are on Medicare, you are as likely as not coping with complex final decisions on deciding on a great Medicare Supplement Policy and you are as likely as not being misled by Medicare Advantage salespeople.
Medicare Supplement Insurance Policy Companies are all required extend the exact same coverage options. Therefore it's so very, very important to look at all Medicare Supplement Insurance Plan Costs the leading companies with a partner you can trust.
Our company is not like others, since we work for you, not an individual Medicare Supplement Policy Company. Our industry professionals examine all of the Medicare Supplement Insurance Policy Companies selling Medicare Supplement Insurance Quotes and search those that are reputable and also can live up to their contracts for many years to come. Basically, our industry analysts weeds out all the small Medigap Plan Carriers and the shifty ones too..

By shopping around for you, our licensed agents acquire the best deals for current situation , not what the Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policy Companies hope to sell to you.
However that is not the full measure we want to do for you. Have you ever tried to take out a plan like a Medicare Supplement Policy? A lot of patients, are often denied coverage or gotten restrictions on their policy that they didn't see coming after they had paid the initial premium. Way too many times there are hard to correct problems in receiving a refund or finding alternative Medicare Insurance Quote or other coverage.
Things like this don't happen on our watch.
All the Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policy Specialists are also Medicare Supplemental Insurance Policy field underwriters.†So that means we'll not only aid you in acquiring the best priced Medicare Supplemental Rates, but we'll make sure you'll pass underwriting for the policy before we walk you through the approval process. By answering a couple easy questions concerning your health, you can be instantly qualified for a Medicare Supplement Insurance Policy that will accept you when you first submit it, with no problems or concerns about of being denied coverage.
We will not ever advise you to sign up for a Medicare Supplement Insurance Policy to you until we know you will qualify be approved by the Medicare Supplement Insurance Policy provider. Additionally, our Cheapest Rate Promise ensures our customers won't ever pay a penny for our professional and that you will always pay the best amount of money for the recommended policy you are qualified to receive.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Al Jolson heads a cast of '30s luminaries in this escapist Depression Era mix of music and melodrama. But the biggest star is behind the camera: musical-number creator and director Busby Berkeley, whose genius shines brightest in the spectacular razzle-dazzle of Don't Say Goodnight. Here, Berkeley orchestrates stunning top shots, eye-popping geometry, mirrors that multiply the dancers into infinity and 60 white pillars that move as effortlessly as the human talent. One night at the Wonder Bar - don't be late!
Product Description:
At the Wonder Bar, a fancy club in Paris, anything can happen as loves and lives intersect with fabulous Busby Berkeley musical numbers. While the characters chase after each other and fall in and out of love, tragedy strikes amidst the glamour.

One of the prominent features of liver metabolism is the ability for de novo glucose synthesis, gluconeogenesis, during periods of food deprivation in order to provide glucose for extrahepatic tissues such as erythrocytes, renal medulla, and particularly the brain.1 The main regulatory enzymes are pyruvate carboxylase (PC), which converts pyruvate into oxaloacetate, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) promoting the decarboxylation of oxaloacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate, and, finally, glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), hydrolyzing glucose-6-phosphate into free glucose and inorganic phosphate.2, 3
PEPCK is considered to be the rate-limiting step in the gluconeogenic pathway. During fasting, expression of the cytosolic form of PEPCK is induced synergistically by glucagon and glucocorticoid hormones, whereas a carbohydrate-rich meal and the concomitant increase in plasma insulin levels acutely inhibit its synthesis rate. The hormonal counterregulation of PEPCK gene transcription by glucagon, acting through the intracellular second-messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), and glucocorticoids, on the one hand, and insulin on the other has been established as the major regulatory axis for PEPCK activity in response to the fasting to feeding transition.2
In this regard, several cis-acting elements of the PEPCK promoter have been shown to mediate cAMP-responsiveness, in particular the so-called cAMP-responsive element (CRE), which is a direct target sequence for the cAMP-responsive element binding transcription factor CREB and is located at around −100 basepairs (bp) relative to the PEPCK transcription start site.2, 4–6 Upon binding to this site, CREB mediates cAMP-dependent as well as basal promoter activity.6–9 Importantly, a functional CRE site is also required for the full glucocorticoid response of the PEPCK promoter which is conferred by a glucocorticoid-response unit (GRU) located between bp −467 and −349 within the PEPCK proximal promoter region. The GRU represents a binding site for multiple transcriptional activators including the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), nuclear receptor hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF) 4, and Foxo1.10, 11
Importantly, PEPCK messenger RNA (mRNA) levels are elevated in animal models of obesity and type II diabetes,12, 13 and transgenic overexpression of PEPCK is sufficient to induce hyperglycemia and type II diabetes.14, 15 In contrast, the inhibition of PEPCK mRNA expression and activity through proinflammatory cytokines following exposure to endotoxin has been identified as a critical event in the manifestation of endotoxic hypoglycemia as associated with impaired survival rates of experimental animals and septic patients.16–18
Given the critical importance of PEPCK regulation for systemic energy homeostasis, this study aimed at the establishment of an adenovirus-based in vivo PEPCK promoter reporter system in mice, allowing monitoring of the response of distinct PEPCK cis-regulatory elements to pathophysiologic liver metabolism. Using this technology, we here identify the interference with cAMP/glucocorticoid synergism and nuclear receptor cofactor peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor coactivator (PGC)-1α through proinflammatory signaling as the critical event underlying endotoxic repression of gluconeogenesis during sepsis.

A handful of actresses carry such a wellspring of inner grace and presence that they appear destined for celebrity from birth. Natalie Wood had it, as did Elizabeth Taylor and Grace Kelly; many would doubtless place Kate Winslet among their ranks. A tender 11 when she commenced her formal dramatic training, 19 when she debuted cinematically, and 20 when she received her first Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination, Winslet never "ascended" to stardom; she became a star overnight. The possessor of an hourglass-figured, full-lipped beauty that lends itself effortlessly to costume dramas, Winslet was roundly hailed by the press for standing in stark, proud contrast to her more conventional Hollywood peers.
Born on October 5, 1975, and raised in Reading, England, as the daughter of stage actors and the granddaughter of a repertory theater manager, Winslet inherited the "drama bug" from her folks. After training exhaustively as a child and securing professional representation she went on the air as a spokesgirl for a popular British cereal, and later attended a performing-arts secondary school. Following an early graduation in 1991 (prior to the age of 16), Winslet launched her regional stage career, highlighted by roles in adaptations of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole and Peter Pan. It would be difficult to imagine a more auspicious film bow than the role of Juliet Hulme in Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures -- or a more difficult one. This characterization -- that of an extroverted adolescent who constructs an incestuously exclusive fantasy world with her best friend (Melanie Lynskey) -- put Winslet on the map, and opened the door for follow-ups in international megahits such as Ang Lee's Sense and Sensibility (1995), as the willful, passionate Marianne; and James Cameron's Titanic (1997), as the object of Leonardo Di Caprio's affections, Rose DeWitt Bukater. She received dual Oscar nominations for those roles, but, surprisingly, failed to net either one.
Meanwhile, Winslet concurrently shied away from the high gloss of Cameron and unveiled her stage origins, traveling the arthouse circuit with such productions as Michael Winterbottom's Jude (1996), as Sue Bridehead; and Kenneth Branagh's disappointing, overbaked, four-hour Hamlet (1996), as Ophelia. Hideous Kinky embodied a turn on a much smaller scale. Directed by Scottish helmer Gillies MacKinnon (and scripted by his brother, Billy), the film casts Winslet as a freewheeling young hippie who takes her children to Morocco in order to pursue spiritual enlightenment. Beyond the positive reviews gleaned by the film and the praise that critics lavished onto Winslet's performance, one of the most alluring sidelights happened off camera, when Winslet dated and then married James Threapleton, the third assistant director on the MacKinnon film. The couple divorced in 2001.
During 1999 and 2000, Winslet dove into two roles that required her to cut loose and break free of all inhibitions. First, she played another young woman in search of spiritual enlightenment, this time in Jane Campion's Holy Smoke. Starring as an Australian girl who joins a cult on a visit to India, and is then "deprogrammed" by Harvey Keitel, Winslet's role pushed her beyond the limits of propriety and embarrassment (one scene has her standing naked and urinating in front of Keitel). Unfortunately, one or two brave performances did not an unequivocal masterpiece make; the picture sharply divided critics, falling far short of the praise heaped onto Campion's The Piano six years earlier. Even gutsier (though more successful on a dramatic level) was Winslet's turn as a laundress who delivers the Marquis de Sade's manuscripts to the outside world in Phil Kaufman's Quills. Winslet reentered the Oscar limelight with yet another Academy-nommed performance as a youthful Iris Murdoch in director Richard Eyre's Iris, but the gold statuette eluded her a third time when Jennifer Conn
