Andrew's Blu-ray Review: `East of Eden' is based upon the acclaimed novel written by John Steinbeck. It was adapted for the screen by Paul Osborn. This production of the book was a gigantic undertaking for its makers, both in terms of what the director and studio brought to the production. Warner Bros. helped make `East of Eden' one of the first films to be made in CinemaScope, a technology meant to pioneer widescreen filmmaking.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Elia Kazan [`On the Waterfront' and `A Streetcar Named Desire'] and introducing the young James Dean to the film-going public this is one of the greatest of Kazan's accomplishments, who was at his absolute best with this masterpiece. He helped to bring forth James Dean's electrifying performance, which to this day still stand's as one of the best debut performances by an actor in a feature film.
James Dean actually got his start in small bit-parts on television programs before landing the big role in East of Eden, which catapulted his career quickly and helped to make him a star. This role is the launching pad that led him to getting the roles in `Rebel Without a Cause' and `Giant' that would so closely follow. It was also the only film of the three he made that James Dean was able to see complete prior to release.
I've never actually read the John Steinbeck's "East of Eden" novel, though the film version by Elia Kazan, as adapted by Paul Osborn, is supposedly only loosely based upon the second half of the book, so those who love the novel might find some issues with this film. Yet I find this story mesmerizing and profound.
It is at least partially a narrative retelling of Cain and Abel. The storyline in East of Eden focuses primarily upon Cal [James Dean], who feels that his love for his father is being rejected and that his father, Adam [Raymond Massey] cares more for his other son Aron [Richard Davalos]. His father is a highly religious man and Cal feels that he cannot live up to his father's idealism. As the storyline progresses, Aron are in a relationship with Abra [Julie Harris] that Cal is jealous about as he has feelings for his brother's girlfriend. Abra, who at first seems to dislike Cal, eventually grows to feel attracted to him.
Abra and Cal begin to spend some time together and they ultimately connect over the feelings they have felt under their upbringing. Abra sees the disappointment and pain Cal feels in not pleasing his father, and in feeling a lack of love. Abra tells Cal about how her own father had given her gifts of great monetary value, but was not there for her and that it made her feel she wasn't loved. This scene, set by the backdrop a beautiful field of golden flowers, is one of the most affecting and profound of the film.
At the start of the story, Cal believed his mother to be dead. Later in the story he discovers she actually is still alive but that his father had been telling Cal and Aron otherwise for all of their years without her. He seeks finding his mother, and when he succeeds he meets Kate [Jo Van Fleet], who Cal discovers runs a brothel. Kate seems to connect to the fact Cal feels rejected from Adam. Cal, still desperate for his father's affection, asks to borrow money from Kate in hoping to sell beans during a war-time shortage so that he can repay his father for ice that he destroyed, belonging to his father. Reluctantly, Kate agrees to loan Cal the money to get this started. Jo Van Fleet won the Academy Award® for Best Supporting Actress. Her performance demonstrated the icy cold character of Kate, who Cal fails to realise that he never looked for him or Aron during all of their years apart.
The conclusion of the film is one that unfolds with brilliant pacing and some of Elia Kazan's most impressive framing of the characters. One of the things I appreciate about `East of Eden,' after how wonderful the performances are, is the nightmarish fervour that Elia Kazan creates with tilted camera angles and bizarre framing that most directors would ignore. This makes the descent Cal's feeling emotional seems to be represented through the ebb and flow of the camera.
`East of Eden' is a genuine American classic. When you think of films with great performances this is a film that easily comes to mind. Dean is so fantastic and so unafraid to be emotionally resonant, that it's shocking to recognize it as a film debut. The supporting performance are so powerful as well, especially the supporting part by Julie Harris, which is so distinct when it's compared to her other performances. I love `East of Eden' and it is one of the first films that were influential on my growing love of cinema and the power of filmmaking. It is a fine work of accomplished art that is worth cherishing and remembering for all of its immense worth and contribution towards the craft of filmmaking. It is truly an amazing tour-de-force, with brilliant characters.
Blu-ray Video Quality - The 1080p encoded image transfer of East of Eden is a strong one indeed. The image retains adequate grain and there is a real sense of richness in the texture of the photography. I certainly find this to be a beautiful film, one with a complex visual quality that is astonishing, largely due to the stylistic choices of Elia Kazan and cinematographer Ted McCord. The original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.55:1 has been preserved. The scope ratio effectively helps Elia Kazan create a larger sense of the 'mood' in many of the scenes, especially when he makes things topsy-turvy during the story's darker moments.
The CinemaScope format preserves the film as accurately as possible. This is one of the first films to use the widescreen technology of the time and in that regard it should be considered a pioneering effort. However, I find the use of CinemaScope in East of Eden to be disappointing in comparison to how `Rebel Without a Cause' implemented it and only shortly thereafter. The only real issue with the film is that the scene-change dissolves have some weak detail due to the source limitations. This is not a fault of Warner Bros. or the restoration team at MPI, but it's nonetheless something that has an impact on the visual finesse of the presentation. This minor drawback aside, East of Eden looks stellar in an authentic and well-realised Blu-ray transfer who dramatically demonstrates the importance of film restoration and 4K scanning when preserving films.
Blu-ray Audio Quality - `East of Eden' has received the least impressive sound presentation out of the three films. Unfortunately, the re-mixed 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio sounded a bit unnatural to me at times. Take for instance, the sequence involving the falling blocks of ice as ruined by an outraged Cal. This scene was particularly troublesome to me as it sounded like an inauthentic expansion to 5.1 surround. The way the sound materials were utilized in this moment (and to a lesser degree some other parts of the film) made it a slightly less enveloping experience. I found it a bit distracting to my viewing. Dialogue clarity is good. The music score by Leonard Rosenman sounds beautiful and very haunting when it needs to be but also uplifting when the story and performances are in need of some emotional grace.
Blu-ray Supplements and Extras:
Commentary by film critic Richard Schickel: Film Critic Richard Schickel discusses the film and as a fan, has seen it many times, but his commentary lacks the detailed presentation that one might expect from a scholar like Jeffrey Vance. Most of Richard Schickel's historical points (e.g. the animosity between James Dean and Raymond Massey) are covered in the "Art in Search of Life" feature. His primary contribution in the commentary is an evaluation of the performances and direction.
Forever James Dean [60:00] This 1988 documentary narrated by Bob Gunton is valuable primarily for its compilation of archival photographs and interviews with childhood acquaintances and other interview subjects who are probably no longer alive. But one doesn't get a strong sense of who Dean was or what made him distinctive.
East of Eden: Art in Search of Life [20:00] Is a documentary with interviews with various individuals who were involved with the making of East of Eden. This documentary short was made in 2005 for Warner's two-disc special edition DVD. It includes informative interviews with Steinbeck's son, Thomas, and Susan Schillinglaw of the Center for Steinbeck Studies, as well as Schickel, Kazan, Harris and others (many via archive footage).
Screen Tests [6:21] In the former domain, we get screen tests between James Dean and Richard Davalos as they perform the discussion between Cal and Aron that we already saw as a deleted scene. It's a decent titbit, though it's too bad we don't see some of the other existing screen tests as well.
Wardrobe Tests: Richard Davalos [3:27]; James Dean and Richard Davalos [3:57 minutes]; James Dean, Julie Harris and Richard Davalos [2:21 minutes]; James Dean and Lois Smith [3:09 minutes]; Lois Smith [2:55 minutes]; James Dean and Jo Van Fleet [0:41 seconds]; Jo Van Fleet [4:21 minutes] and Costumes and Production Design [1:38 minutes].
Deleted Scenes [19:15] It presents a conversation between Cal and Aron about their father's feelings and more of the birthday party for Adam. We get multiple takes of the various shots, so don't expect a full slate of new material. Nothing revealing appears in the party scenes, but the chat between Cal and Aron works well. It fleshes out Cal's character change and might have been a useful addition to the film.
Vintage Documentary: 3/9/1955 NYC Premiere [14:42] This mostly focuses on the activities in front of the theatre. Host Martin Block chats with the following notables as they enter: Margaret Truman, Milton Berle, John Steinbeck, Elia Kazan, Raymond Massey, Eva Marie Saint, Red Buttons, Jack Warner, Denise Darcell, Imogene Coca, Carol Channing, and Joel Grey. Of course, virtually nothing of substance occurs, but it's a fun piece to watch. I particularly liked Steinbeck's very uncomfortable conversation; the author doesn't look happy to be there.
Theatrical Trailer [2:54] What's notable about the trailer, is how much effort has been made to sensationalise the story.
Finally, it is so marvellous to finally have this classic Elia Kazan film in 1080p High Definition. Despite the technical limitations of early CinemaScope filming of East of Eden, it is now a fantastic marvellous film to experience. The cinematography and the colours look tremendous in the presentation MPI have created in restoring the film. James Dean is fantastic in this first big-screen performance. This essential film has never been presented better on Home Theatre media and this release is an essential purchase for fans of classic cinema at its finest and that is why I am so proud to add this brilliant Special Deluxe Limited Edition DigiBook, as not only is it beautifully produced, but it is also such and honour to add another James Dean Classic Film to my Blu-ray Collection. Highly Recommended!

East of eden
on July 6, 2012
East of Eden,a novel by John Steinbeck, is probably one of the greatest books I have ever read, and I am an english literature teacher. I was much looking for ad to seeing this film, especially as the star is a movie icon, James Dean!
How disappointed I was. The film, as an entity, in and of itself, is not terrible, but if you have read the novel and are thinking this might be the same story-FORGET IT.

East of Eden
Colette Albert
on July 25, 2010
Format: DVD
After reading the book East of Eden from John Steinbeck, I wanted to look again at the movie (which is the last part only of the book). Was not disappointed. James Dean is very good, and it's pretty much, with a few exceptions, the same as the book. I recommend it.

Kazan Struggles Mightily With Cinemascope
A. Munnik
on July 19, 2005
Format: DVD
I have enjoyed East of Eden several times over a time span of some forty years; first in black and white on a small TV and later in colour but still in small screen format. So I looked very much forward to the new DVD release in its original format.
The DVD package is certainly handsome with many welcome bonuses.
Of particular interest is a short screen test segment featuring the two brothers in an intense dramatic confrontation. This revived memories of my first viewing of this classic and made me realize that the nature of this film would have been more suited to the 4:3, black and white format of previous Kazan helmed masterpieces such as A Street Car Named Desire and On the Waterfront.
Kazan was not the only great director to experience teething problems with the recently (1954) introduced gimmick of Cinemascope. But the Studios, convinced that this was the way to woo potential audiences away from their TV sets, cajoled their leading directors to turn out major productions in this format irregardless of aesthetic suitabilities.
No director has ever surpassed Kazan in capturing intense emotional confrontations between individuals, and the focus this requires is diluted and diminished by the widescreen format. Kazan does throw in some fine panoramic vistas of the stunning filming locales, but these are only fleeting moments that are not really central to the unfolding drama. Kazan skews camera angles in an attempt to add tension, but just plain old black and white and a more confined screen space would have been more effective ways to concentrate the action.
Some viewers will probably grouse at the somewhat muted colour transfer, but this film was shot in WarnerColor (synonymous with Ansco Color) which the studios used for several years in order to shave costs. Unlike Technicolor, this was a one step colour processing that was both inferior and highly unstable. Restoring films shot in this colour format is quite a herculean achievement and they never equal the vibrancy of older films recorded in three step Technicolor.
East of Eden is still a terrific cinematic achievement, but it would have been more powerful still if it had been shot in black and white small screen.

Heartburn/GERD Health Center
Gas, Bloating, and Burping - Home Treatment
Gas, bloating, and burping
Gas, bloating, and burping are usually harmless and go away without any treatment. If gas, bloating, or burping is making you uncomfortable, take the following steps to help manage your symptoms:
- Increase the amount of fluid you drink, especially water. Avoid carbonated drinks and alcoholic beverages.
- Take a medicine that you can buy without a prescription. Be sure to follow the instructions on the label.
- Activated charcoal tablets, such as CharcoCaps, may decrease odor from gas. Charcoal is usually taken after meals or at the first sign of gas discomfort.
- Antacids, such as Maalox Anti-Gas and Mylanta Gas, allow gas to be belched away more easily. But these medicines often have no effect on gas that is already in the intestines.
- Food enzymes, such as Beano, which help break down the sugars found in vegetables and grains, can be added to foods that cause you to have gas.
Hiccups are usually harmless and go away without any treatment. But if hiccups are making you uncomfortable, the following safe and easy home remedies may help you manage your symptoms.
- Swallow a teaspoon of dry granulated sugar. Do not use this remedy if you have been diagnosed with diabetes.
- Hold your breath, and count slowly to 10.
- Breathe repeatedly into a paper bag for a limited period of time.
- Quickly drink a glass of cold water.
Symptoms to watch for during home treatment
Call your doctor if any of the following occur during home treatment:
- Hiccups don't go away as expected or they return frequently.
- Swallowing problems are not improving.
- You continue to lose weight for no reason.
- Symptoms become more severe or frequent.

I have one word to ease the minds of people who worry that Hanley Ramirez will stop stealing bases now that he's slated to bat third for the Marlins:
Traditional thinking has a way of tainting even the most knowledgeable baseball mind. It always has been assumed that players who bat atop the order are the ones who steal the bases, while the Nos. 3 and 4 hitters are the ones who knock 'em home, with no exceptions. Even those who casually browse the statistics might point out that among all major league teams in 2008, the average team produced 30 stolen bases out of 38 attempts from its leadoff spot, while its No. 3 hitters averaged 11 out of 14.
The problem: Without examining who was responsible for said numbers, there's no clear way to discern whether batting order has any bearing whatsoever on a player's tendency to steal bases. Here's a neat little nugget for you: In 2008, the Toronto Blue Jays squeaked an MLB-high 29 stolen bases out of their No. 3 lineup spot, 17 more than they got from their leadoff men, that differential again tops in the game.
That was primarily the result of the team's most effective base stealer, Alex Rios, who occupied the 3-spot on 131 occasions. He swiped all 29 of those bags in that lineup slot, a total greater than 18 other teams got from their leadoff hitters, and attempted one steal per 16.3 plate appearances hitting third. Out of the leadoff spot, which he occupied 20 times, he managed but three steals and averaged one attempt per 22.5 plate appearances. (Though, to be fair, his on-base percentage was 55 points lower hitting first than third.)
Still not convinced that when it comes to speedsters, lineup spot is mostly irrelevant?
Seeking greater accuracy, we solicited the help of the Elias Sports Bureau, looking to examine a cross section of players who qualified as "speedy" types and spent significant time in more than one spot in the lineup in the past two seasons. The criteria we used: a minimum of 20 stolen-base attempts in the given season and a minimum of 100 plate appearances in at least two different lineup spots.
During a two-year span (2007-08), only six players fit the criteria with the first and third lineup spots as the ones with 100-plus plate appearances. Four of the six actually attempted to steal bases more often as No. 3 hitters than at leadoff, and the six as a whole averaged one steal attempt per 16.4 plate appearances out of the No. 3 hole, compared to 16.7 at leadoff.
Let's take a closer look at each, complete with 2009 fantasy implications.
Eric Byrnes (2007)
Batting first: 211 plate appearances, 15 stolen-base attempts, 14.1 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 302 PAs, 32 SBAtts, 9.4 PAs/SBAtt
Not a lot to discuss, as Byrnes is slated to serve as a fourth outfielder for the 2009 Diamondbacks, meaning he'll probably slide in as a middle-to-bottom hitter in the games he plays. Coming off a year marred by hamstring troubles, he likely won't run another 30-plus times, though his splits are a particularly encouraging example because he's hardly your traditional speedster, yet didn't change his approach when he changed lineup spots.
Nate McLouth (2008)
Batting first: 379 PAs, 16 SBAtts, 23.7 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 234 PAs, 9 SBAtts, 26.0 PAs/SBAtt
With the Pirates looking to use McLouth more for offense coming off his breakout year, he'll almost assuredly spend every day in the 3-hole. At the rates above, given 600 plate appearances as a No. 3 hitter, he'd attempt at least 23 steals, a healthy-enough number. Be aware he has been successful on 91.9 percent of his attempts for his career.
Hanley Ramirez (2007)
Batting first: 526 PAs, 52 SBAtts, 10.1 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 176 PAs, 13 SBAtts, 13.5 PAs/SBAtt
These are the numbers most likely to concern Ramirez's owners, but the fact remains that at a ratio of 13.5 plate appearances per steal attempt ratio, he would attempt 50 steals if he were to come to the plate 675 times. Besides, we haven't even brought up the fact that in 2007, Ramirez lost 74 points of on-base percentage after going from No. 1 to No. 3 in the order, meaning he wasn't on base enough to run as frequently he did as a leadoff hitter. Ask yourself, do you really think he'll keep getting on base at only a .347 clip hitting third (his career number there)?
Alex Rios (2007)
Batting first: 267 PAs, 7 SBAtts, 38.1 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 313 PAs, 12 SBAtts, 26.1 PAs/SBAtt
Rios was a more efficient base stealer as a No. 3 hitter than a No. 1 hitter in 2008 and in 2007. For his career, he has averaged exactly one steal per 20 plate appearances hitting in that third slot, one he's almost certain to occupy again in 2009.
Jimmy Rollins (2007)
Batting first: 675 PAs, 39 SBAtts, 17.3 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 103 PAs, 8 SBAtts, 12.9 PAs/SBAtt
Many point to Rollins' career-high .531 slugging percentage of 2007 as reason to move him into more of a run-producing lineup spot, and the Phillies did that at times when Ryan Howard and Chase Utley were hurt that year, sliding him in at No. 3 on 23 occasions. Interestingly, he batted ahead of either Howard or Utley in every one of those 23 contests, yet ran more often in those games than he did setting the table -- as prime an example as any that a quality speedster doesn't stop running when dropped down.
Randy Winn (2008)
Batting first: 224 PAs, 8 SBAtts, 28.0 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 397 PAs, 19 SBAtts, 20.9 PAs/SBAtt
Not an elite base stealer, Winn nevertheless has been a consistent double-digit performer in the category in each of his past eight seasons, swiping 20-plus bags four times. He'll lead off for the Giants with Dave Roberts gone, as fellow fleet-of-foot outfielder Fred Lewis occupies the No. 3 hole, but Winn's 2008 numbers actually might serve as a good example not to lower your stolen-base projections for Lewis.
Other lineup implications
But it's not only the differential between Nos. 1 and 3 hitters that is of fantasy relevance. Fifty-seven different players -- including the six above -- fit the criteria proposed accounting for any two lineup spots. Totaling the group's numbers, here are the numbers broken down by each of the nine spots in the batting order:
Batting first: 7,947 PAs, 478 SBAtts, 16.6 PAs/SBAtt
Batting second: 5,631 PAs, 376 SBAtts, 15.0 PAs/SBAtt
Batting third: 5,407 PAs, 276 SBAtts, 19.6 PAs/SBAtt
Batting fourth: 3,203 PAs, 156 SBAtts, 20.5 PAs/SBAtt
Batting fifth: 2,027 PAs, 85 SBAtts, 23.8 PAs/SBAtt
Batting sixth: 1,325 PAs, 57 SBAtts, 23.2 PAs/SBAtt
Batting seventh: 694 PAs, 31 SBAtts, 22.4 PAs/SBAtt
Batting eighth: 1,337 PAs, 73 SBAtts, 18.3 PAs/SBAtt
Batting ninth: 1,441 PAs, 80 SBAtts, 18.0 PAs/SBAtt
Differing sample sizes comes into play here, but if we extract the two most extreme rates -- 15.0 PAs/SBAtt in the No. 2 hole and 23.8 in the No. 5 -- we're still talking about a difference of only 15 steal attempts spread across a 600-plate appearance season. And that doesn't account for the fact that some of the players in those Nos. 4-5-6 lineup spots weren't traditional speedsters; not one of the players in the study attempted more than the 28 steals combined that Corey Hart did while batting in those three spots in 2008.
How about any individual stories with intrigue? The numbers put forth by the four players below might have most relevance heading into 2009:
Russell Martin (2008)
Batting third: 183 PAs, 8 SBAtts, 22.9 PAs/SBAtt
Batting sixth: 114 PAs, 3 SBAtts, 38.0 PAs/SBAtt
One thing to worry about with Martin is that much of his fantasy value is tied into his stolen-base contributions, and much of his performance in the category has been linked to his lineup position. Consider that for his career, he has averaged one steal attempt per 19.4 plate appearances hitting in the upper third of the lineup, but only one per 27.3 in the middle third. All indications are that Martin will slot into the order after Manny Ramirez this season, probably in the No. 5 hole. Another thing to think about is that if Martin has Ramirez on base ahead of him, he won't have as many open bases to try to steal.
Mike Cameron (2008)
Batting second: 140 PAs, 4 SBAtts, 35.0 PAs/SBAtt
Batting sixth: 114 PAs, 6 SBAtts, 19.0 PAs/SBAtt
Batting seventh: 177 PAs, 10 SBAtts, 17.7 PAs/SBAtt
The Brewers as a team attempted only 11 steals out of the No. 2 spot in the lineup in 2008, seemingly refusing to take chances when either Ryan Braun or Prince Fielder was up at the plate. What can be taken from that? If the Brewers are being truthful about batting Jason Kendall leadoff, then Rickie Weeks' steals numbers might suffer slightly because he'd more than likely spend more time in the second than first spot in the order.
Carlos Gomez (2008)
Batting first: 415 PAs, 30 SBAtts, 13.8 PAs/SBAtt
Batting 9th: 190 PAs, 13 SBAtts, 14.6 PAs/SBAtt
These numbers are especially encouraging for Gomez, a player who has been slotted into the lineup anywhere from first to second to seventh to ninth already this spring. With a .295 career on-base percentage (and a so-so .336 in his minor league career), Gomez doesn't seem to fit the leadoff-man prototype, but it's good to know that if he bats ninth, probably his most suitable spot, he should run every bit as often as if he bats first. The only drawback: No. 9 hitters come to the plate more than 100 fewer times per year. Can't win 'em all!
Jayson Werth (2008)
Batting second: 137 PAs, 7 SBAtts, 19.6 PAs/SBAtt
Batting 6th: 150 PAs, 4 SBAtts, 37.5 PAs/SBAtt
Although it appears the Phillies plan to bat Werth in more of a run-producing spot in the lineup -- fifth seems likely -- the fact that he was more apt to attempt a steal in the No. 2 hole might warrant some consideration. It's the spot in which he spent each of the Phillies' final seven postseason games, six of them wins. Just something to think about.
Will this hurt Hanley?
One final point to alleviate the concerns of the aforementioned Hanley Ramirez owners and people who will certainly be spending a top-three, if not No. 1, draft pick on the shortstop: Going by steal attempts per single, walk or hit by pitch, Ramirez in his career has attempted one steal per 3.14 singles, walks or hit by pitch as a leadoff man; in the No. 3 hole that number is one per 3.78. Apparently getting on base has been his primary issue in the latter spot so far in his young career; it's not his frequency of steal attempts.
So, to reiterate, I have one word for people who claim No. 3-hitting Ramirez is "bound for an inevitable decline in steals": Hogwash!

Jab Tak Hai Jaan, Son Of Sardar suffer loss at the Box Office!
Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Ajay Devgn's Son Of Sardar, that got released on November 13, have been doing really well at the Box Office. But, things went low for these two movies this weekend, after the death of Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray.
According to a leading daily, cities like Pune, Nasik, Solapur, Sangli, Kolhapur, Satara, Nagpur and a few more had cancelled the movie shows due to Bal Thackeray's sudden demise. Thackeray passed away on Saturday, due to which the city came to a standstill. Reportedly, this proved to be disastrous for both the films' Box Office collection. According to Mumbai Mirror reports, both the films have approximately incurred a loss of 7:9 ratio, over the weekend.
Jab Tak Hai Jaan has raked in a highest ever collection for a Diwali release and it is also the biggest opener for SRK. The Shahrukh-Katrina-Anushka has collected a total of Rs 80.73 crores nett at the Box Office in the country in the six day extended weekend. On the other hand, Son Of Sardar has collected Rs 66.02 crores nett at the domestic Box Office in six-day extended opening weekend.

Love this product. Was using Avalon Organics, which worked well for my then greasy scalp. It did its job and then it was making it a little too dry, so I switched to this. FANTASTIC results. I have a super sensitive scalp and the shampoo/conditioner combo is great. Keeps my hair shiny and not itchy at all.
Didn't think I'd like it that much
Posted by 5540738916401582003 on Jan 03, 2016
I honestly didn't have any high hopes left for all these sulfate free paraben free blahblahblah shampoos...because they always left my hair straw-like, and some even gave me hairfall issues. But this turned out to be a surprise. Yes, it is runnier than normal. I do use a little more than I would with a normal shampoo, but it really left my hair soft and did not give me any hair thinning issues. It is as the bottle says, a gentle shampoo. I don't know what it is, maybe it does have some calming effect, but I'm always happy after shampoo-ing my hair. It's more than I'd like to pay for a bottle of shampoo, but oh well, at least it works!

I use this on my daughters hair to keep away those pesky creepy crawlies when she's in school. Works brilliantly.
Cleans well

It cleans the scalp well but leaves the ends dry. I add some argan oil in the shampoo to counteract the drying effect on the hair ends.

I bought this product because i was getting scalp irritation and mild burn sores after regular colouring. Jt's really helped and seems very colour safe. My scalp is left feeling more calm and less itchy a couple of days later than it was with my regular expensive salon shampoo.


text: Have you read Hobb? She's not much like any of the authors you listed. And none of them provide a character much like Fitz, as well. Hobb's Fitz and Fool stories are special in ways that even she doesn't seem to able to replicate in later works. She tries in Soldier Son and the Rainwild Chronicles, but it's the name Fitz I see repeated over and over again.

I had made these into mini bundt cakes, and got 6 of them. They took 37 minutes in the oven. I had used dried cranberries and used the whole package which was 3 cups. The flavors of the lemon and the cranberries were excellent, a wonderful balance of tartness. I had gotten 1/2 cup of lemon juice with my lemon that was put into the mix. I had put a lemon glaze on top of the bundt cakes and it added a very nice extra lemon taste. And I found they definitely need to be served warm because it makes them taste really moist. Thanks for sharing your recipe paxye
PERFECT recipe. My only mod is cutting the sugar to 1 cup. When I want to make it lower fat I sub yogurt for the butter. Thank you!!
First of all I gotta say, it's nice to know another one who loves a cranberry & lemon combo ~ AND, you have a great recipe here! I made sure that I used a large lemon along with 3 full cups of frozen cranberries! Believe it or not, I made this intending to give it as a gift, but then decided to keep it all to myself (well, myself & my other half, but that just means that I get to eat most of it!)! This recipe goes into my several of my special cookbooks! Thanks, much, for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in Tag It RED!]

Hi --
We're having some problems with the Audio Player plug-in following an upgrade to WP 3.01 and a move to the new default theme, 2010.
I've followed all the suggestions on the Troubleshooting page, including uninstalling and reinstalling Flash and making sure that wp_header() and wp_footer() are in the appropriate locations. Rather than seeing an audio player, however, all we're getting is a blank space.
Here's a sample page from our site:
Does anyone have any suggestions? This is perplexing to me.

A Hasse principle for quadratic forms over function fields
Abstract | References | Additional Information
Abstract: We describe the classical Hasse principle for the existence of nontrivial zeros for quadratic forms over number fields, namely, local zeros over all completions at places of the number field imply nontrivial zeros over the number field itself. We then go on to explain more general questions related to the Hasse principle for nontrivial zeros of quadratic forms over function fields, with reference to a set of discrete valuations of the field. This question has interesting consequences over function fields of -adic curves. We also record some open questions related to the isotropy of quadratic forms over function fields of curves over number fields.

"Lednice na Morave and surroundings" Lednice by budapest8
Lednice Travel Guide: 30 reviews and 103 photos
Just arrived back today from Czech Republic and
visited Lednice yesterday...lots of pictures and info to come.
Lednice (historical German name: Eisgrub) is a village
in the Czech Republic which was in 1996 inscribed on the
UNESCO World Heritage List (together with the twin manor
of Valtice) as "an exceptional example of the designed
landscape that evolved in the Enlightenment and afterwards
under the care of a single family." It contains a palace and the
largest park in the country, which covers 200 km�.
Since Legnice first passed into the hands of the House of Liechtenstein
in the mid-13th century, its fortunes had been tied inseparably
to those of that noble family, one of the richest in Bohemia.
The palace of Lednice began its life as a Renaissance villa;
in the 17th century it became a summer residence of the
ruling Princes of Liechtenstein. The estate house ?
designed and furbished by baroque architects
Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach,
Domenico Martinelli,
and Anton Johan Ospel
? proclaimed rural luxury on the grandest scale.
In 1846-58 it was extensively rebuilt in a
Neo-Gothic style under the supervision of Georg Wingelm�ller.
Great place to spend a day!
Plenty to do for all ages.
The surrounding park is laid out in an English garden
style and contains a range of Romantic follies by Joseph Hardtmuth,
including the artificial ruins of a medieval castle on the bank of the Dyje River
(1801) and a solitary sixty-metre minaret, reputedly the tallest outside the
Muslim world at the time of its construction (1797-1804).
- Pros:Nice place to own if you were a noble Lord or Baron
- Cons:Wouldn't fancy paying the gas and electric bills!
- In a nutshell:Moravian Castle Lednice show us the splendour of archictecture
Reviews (14)
% got a bratwurst and a beer and Clara a langos with cheese, usual Central European standard at tourist prices! But I... more travel advice
Considering we visited in August and we walked down to the birds of prey area where they had a show going on at 4.30... more travel advice
There are so many beautiful things to see, but sad that one family should posess so much. more travel advice
Comments (4)
Those really are quite impressive gardens! The bird show looks like it must have been interesting to observe as well.
Nice to see Lednice through your eyes, it reminds me of returning there and see the other tour that they offered, and I did not go there because the time was too short. Lednice needs a whole day or even more to explore it completely !
Nice place. Hope it will remain open for the public even if the Liechtenstein House will be succesful and get Lednice-Valtice back for themselves.
I agree, Tim. It is much better to see animals, birds, and fish in their own natural habitat.

The Inferior
The Inferior
David Fickling Books, Hardcover, 9780385751452, 448pp.
Publication Date: June 10, 2008
STOPMOUTH AND HIS family know of no other life than the daily battle to survive. To live, they must hunt rival species, or negotiate flesh-trade with those who crave meat of the freshest human kind. It is a savage, desperate existence. And for Stopmouth, considered slowwitted hunt-fodder by his tribe, the future looks especially bleak. But then, on the day he is callously betrayed by his brother, a strange and beautiful woman falls from the sky. It is a moment that will change his destiny, and that of all humanity, forever. With echoes of Tarzan, Conan the Barbarian, and The Truman Show, Peadar Ó Guilín's debut is an action—and idea-packed—blockbuster that will challenge your perceptions of humanity and leave you hungry for more.
EADAR Ó GUILÍN has been writing curious stories for as long as he can remember. One of his school reports claimed that he had "a talent for communication, which he abuse[d]." Since then, he has written plays, published short stories, and performed as a standup comedian. This is his first book for children.

Bearcats fall to Cougars in hard WHC contests
Published: Saturday, January 24, 2009 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 24, 2009 at 7:32 p.m.
For three periods, Hendersonvilles boys basketball team had one of the top 2-A teams in the Western Highlands Conference on the ropes Friday night at Jim Pardue Gymnasium.
Photo Galleries
But in the final six minutes, the Cougars fought their way out of the corner with a devastating 11-2 run to take a hard-fought 78-66 league win.
Heritage point guard Steven Wilson didnt miss a shot in the second half, finishing with a game-high 26 points.
Our guys, like always, didnt quit, Bearcat coach Robert Strong said after his team fell to to 9-5 and 3-3 in the WHC. Thats one of the top 2-A teams in the conference, and our guys showed that were not that far away. Our focus now is to get ready for the playoffs, and this was a big step.
The Bearcats can secure the top 1-A seed from the WHC with a win on Jan. 30 over Avery County.
Heritage (11-5, 5-1) had three other players reach double figures, including 6-10 sophomore sensation John Cannon, who had 13 points, 12 rebounds and a dunk to end the first half.
Michael Pender added 12 points, and Dylan McMahan finished with 13.
Matched up against Cannon most of the night was Hendersonvilles Keyvon Young, who stands just above 6-1. He ended up with 15 points.
Keyvon never stops going, and you saw that tonight. He had 15 rebounds, Strong said.
Hendersonville held the lead for most of the first half but relinquished it in the final seconds of the second period when Cannon threw down a two-handed slam to make it 31-30 in favor of the Cougars.
Desmond Whiteside (15 points) answered with a 10-foot jumper to give HHS the lead back, but that lead lasted mere seconds after Heritages Thomas Burlesons layup made it 33-32. The Cougars never trailed again.
In the girls opener, Mike Normans Lady Bearcats gave the Lady Cougars a scare by getting within five points with just under six minutes left in the game after a three-point play by Tiffany Westmoreland.
But the Lady Cougars responded with a 12-0 run to pull away for good and earn a 62-50 win.
Kayla Shepherd led Heritage with 21 points, and Courtny Huskins was close behind with 20.
Hendersonville (5-10, 0-6) had two reach double figures Westmoreland (16 points, 12 rebounds) and Brooks Walz (14 points). Lydia Stoney added seven assists.
Hendersonvilles boys and girls return to action Tuesday at Madison.

Making the Grade: Reading for School Readiness

Summer Reading is upon us. The Library's branches are bustling with children piling into puppet shows and raising the roof at musical hoedowns, with teens texting and tweeting book reviews, and families dutifully logging reading hours to win prizes.
Remembering Ray: Our Librarians Celebrate the Late Ray Bradbury
June 8, 2012
It's a famous, elemental creation story. Los Angeles, the early 1950s: Ray Bradbury sojourns to the basement of UCLA's Lawrence Clark Powell Library armed with a bagful of dimes to bang out his now-classic lines like "It was a pleasure to burn" at ten cents an hour on a rented typewriter.
Summer Program Pairs Paintings and Books at the Kemper Museum
June 4, 2012
Children who visit libraries early in life are more likely to return as they grow up. The same goes for art museums. This summer, the Kansas City Public Library is partnering with the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art for a program designed to enhance young readers' love of listening – and looking.
Calling All Teens: Send In Your Zine Submissions Now

In an age of texting, tweeting, and LOL-inducing memes, putting out a print zine may sound a little 20th century. But there's something to be said for publishing a story you can have and hold.

Use billboard in a sentence
As we neared Chicago on our interstate drive, we passed at least five billboards advertising season tickets for the city's various sports teams.
You could try to put up a billboard in a well trafficked area to market your product to a lot of people.
Since the business was in the process of relocating to a much larger facility with state highway frontage, they took advantage of the passing traffic by placing a billboard at a nearby on/off ramp.

New Kernel Firewall Nftables to Succeed Netfilter
The Netfilter team has long been mulling over rework of firewall code in the Linux kernel. Now team lead Patrick McHardy ends months of work by announcing nftables.
The history of all hitherto existing firewall subsystems is the history of struggles over more flexibility and compatibility. The nftables firewall ranks so far as the last revolution after ipfw, ipfadm, ipchains and netfilter. As the same team is working on the code, there is hope for users that there is continuing support for it.
The rework was necessary because the reliably operating netfilter was getting ever more extensions that many admins were finding unwieldy. Much of the discussion was around the interface between the userland tools and the kernel. Whereas the tools in netfilter up to now could only exchange a rule as a binary blob over the netlink interface, incremental rule changes are now possible.
[Furthermore, ] the developers moved the majority of the kernel ruleset evalutation from kernel to userspace, McHardy says. in his lwn.net mailing. Moreover, users get to use a new rule syntax that allows them more configuration freedom, unlike the previous netfilter that depended on complicated command line calls. The userland tools create the rules with help of a library to load into the kernel, which simply executes them.
The nftables firewall also introduces a few standardizations such that the subsystem is now independent of the protocol family and IPv4 in the same way as IPv6 and link-layer packets.. It also provides direct access to many packet data through its syntax that is like a mix of Wireshark filter rules and Perl associative arrays. One user request Mchardy rejected, though: Compatibility layers that map the
old rules to new ones are not feasible, he regretted.

Wall Street's Sheriff Needs Many More Deputies: Rory Lancman
Three years after the collapse of Countrywide Financial Corp. and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. ushered in the hardest recession since the Great Depression, throwing millions of Americans out of their jobs and homes, almost none of the wrongdoers has been held accountable or victims made whole.
It's as if this calamity just fell from the sky, to be borne with the same bewildered resignation that our ancestors might have shown in the face of an earthquake, volcanic eruption or other catastrophic natural disaster.
The same 1921 law that deputized famed Wall Street sheriffs Eliot Spitzer and Andrew Cuomo, the Martin Act, bears substantial responsibility for blocking defrauded investors -- particularly New York's pension funds -- from recouping their losses and holding wrongdoers accountable.
The Martin Act has succeeded in siccing state law enforcement on financial wrongdoing, particularly during periods when the federal government's enthusiasm for such work has waned. It's also come up woefully short in helping investors get their looted money back.
The Martin Act's strength lies in its common-sense understanding of how the securities markets really function.
For instance, under federal law, investors aren't legally wronged merely because a company misrepresents or omits important facts. Rather, they must detail -- at the very outset of a case, before company executives have to turn over any documents or sit for any depositions -- how that misrepresentation was made with the intent to defraud them, and how they relied on it in deciding to purchase the stock.
Real Responsibility
In contrast, New York's Martin Act holds company executives and securities-industry professionals responsible for foreseeable misrepresentations or omissions of essential facts in their communications -- period. To paraphrase Peter Parker: with great power to generate commissions comes great responsibility.
Also, where federal law is mostly limited to the primary perpetrators of wrongdoing, the Martin Act extends its long arm to a fraud's collaborators and facilitators: auditors, ratings companies and investment advisers who turned the other way, traded their honest judgment for quick commissions or failed to try to understand the financial instruments they were hustling to unsophisticated clients.
Yet the most important difference between federal and New York state law exposes the Martin Act as sorely lacking.
Dual Track
Federal law long ago recognized the importance of combating investment fraud along a dual track: government action to prosecute wrongdoing and seek what restitution it can for victims, and private action in the form of litigation by the defrauded investors to recover their losses, if the merits of their claims and the magnitude of their damages make such an exhausting and expensive endeavor worthwhile.
Not so in New York. The Martin Act empowers only the attorney general to bring securities cases. Worse, courts are shutting down traditional state common-law negligence claims brought against securities-market participants, on the theory that the Martin Act, in granting exclusive authority to the attorney general, was intended to prevent lawsuits by private investors.
Conceived to be a friend to investors, New York's Martin Act is smothering the ability of defrauded investors to seek restitution. That's why the deputy majority leader of the state Senate, Republican Tom Libous, and I have proposed legislation that would authorize pension funds to sue for damages that result from violations of the act.
As Congress and the federal courts impose increasingly stringent substantive and procedural limitations on holding wrongdoers in our securities markets accountable, New York urgently needs to give its investors -- particularly its public and union employee pension funds -- the means to bring claims of their own, to recover some of their tens of billions of dollars in losses and to identify those who caused those losses.
Because the financial crisis didn't just fall from the sky.

Baghdad: Headquarters of U.S.-led occupation under mortar attack, at least four wounded
Iraqi resistance fighters fired mortars Tuesday night into the "Green Zone," the highly guarded headquarters area of the U.S.-led occupation, injuring at least four people.
Four large blasts could be heard about 7:45 p.m., and smoke could be seen rising from the northern end of the one-square-mile zone near the al-Jamhuriya Bridge over the Tigris River.
At the Pentagon, spokesman Lt. Col. Jim Cassella said four people were injured in the attacks. According to The AP, the U.S.-led coalition said in a statement that "two projectiles were launched" in central Baghdad and that "there is no damage and no casualties at (coalition) headquarters."
Iraqi police said two rounds landed in the Green Zone.
The zone is a cordoned-off region that includes the former Saddam Hussein palace now used as US occupation headquarters, the Al Rasheed hotel where most U.S. workers have been staying and other buildings.
Tuesday was the second straight night of heavy explosions in the center of Baghdad. About three mortars hit downtown late Monday. U.S. authorities said at least one hit a U.S. Army base but caused no damage or casualties. (Albawaba.com)

I'm running a 3rd party vpn daemon that changes resolv.conf on init and checks for changes continuously.
I installed my own local dns cache that gets properly inside resolv.conf but the vpn daemon puts its resolvers before that and I'm getting huge timeouts.
Any idea on how could I use another config file to specify I want to resolve my own stuff or at least reducing the standard dns timeout(5 secs) without touching resolv.conf

After Durham (12-23) took a 1-0 lead on an unearned score in the third, Syracuse tied the game in the bottom half thanks to designated hitter Jim Negrych's first home run as a Chief.
An inning later in the fourth, Syracuse (13-22) took a 4-1 edge on a Xavier Paul line drive three-run homer to right field. The Chiefs' first two batters of the frame were retired, but Brett Carroll walked and Carlos Rivero kept the fourth alive with a single to center. That set the scene for Paul's go-ahead shot -- his second of the season.
Following two scoreless innings, the Chiefs launched their third and final dinger in the form of Carlos Maldonado's second blast of the year.
While home runs from the sixth, seventh, and eighth-placed hitters lifted Syracuse offensively, starter Yunesky Maya gave the Chiefs their fourth strong start in a row. The right-hander pitched seven innings, throwing 102 pitches, and didn't allow an earned run. Maya scattered four hits and struck out seven on the way to his second win of the season.
Pat Lehman came on in relief of Maya in the eighth and although the first three batters he faced reached base, the righty responded. With the tying run at the plate, Lehman fanned Bulls cleanup hitter Leslie Anderson as well as Stephen Vogt and then got Reid Brignac to ground out to end the Durham threat without a run.
Josh Wilkie pitched a scoreless ninth for the Chiefs, who took three out of four from the Bulls. In the series, Syracuse's starters allowed a grand total of six earned runs.
The Chiefs now stay at Alliance Bank Stadium to start a four-game set with the Rochester Red Wings that begins Friday at 7:00 PM. Lefty John Lannan will look to lead Syracuse to its third win in a row, while Rochester counters with Jeff Manship.
