Two pitching gems put the Washington Post 218 Seniors in the championship game of their own tournament Sunday for the second consecutive year.
Post 218 (13-7) got a four-hit shutout from Aaron Meyer in the quarterfinals against Creve Coeur (1-0) and a five-hit shutout by Spencer Juergens (6-0) against Jackson in the event semifinals.
"We were a little flat but Aaron Meyer gave us a strong shutout pitching performance to help us win 1-0," Post 218 Manager Mike Gardner said. "We didn't swing the bats very well, but were able to put a few hits together to score the only run we needed."
Juergens followed with another strong performance and has not allowed a run yet this season.
"Spencer Juergens gave us another great outing against a very good Jackson team that had a 17-2 record coming into the game," Gardner said.
One of the two birthday boys, Noah Borgerding, had the biggest hit of the day, a home run against Jackson.
"Noah Borgerding had a big solo home run to open the scoring and that really helped us with our confidence at the plate as were able to put up five more runs and cruise to a 6-0 victory," Gardner said. "We also really played great defense with diving catches in the outfield by Noah and Austin (Finder)."
Creve Coeur
Washington had a tougher task after having its quarterfinal game against Creve Coeur washed out by a big storm. The rain hit late in the Jackson-Manchester quarterfinal game, but that contest was far enough along to be declared over when tournament officials realized the rain wasn't ending any time soon.
"The rain on Saturday night forced us to play our first bracket game against Creve Coeur on Sunday morning," Gardner said.
That pushed the last quarterfinal, between Post 218 and Creve Coeur, to Sunday morning.
Between Saturday night and Sunday morning, Gardner opted to change the lineup a bit, putting Meyer on the mound in place of Juergens. It turned out to be a move which strengthened things for both games.
Meyer went the distance, needing just 80 pitches to earn the win. He allowed four hits and didn't walk a batter while fanning five Post 397 hitters.
Washington needed Meyer's arm as Creve Coeur's Connor Kraus went the distance as well. He allowed one run on six hits while not walking anyone. He struck out five Washington hitters.
The lone run came in the bottom of the sixth inning. With one out, birthday celebrant Noah Borgerding bashed a double to center field.
Juergens followed with a single into left field and Nathan Hillermann drove in the run with a hit to center.
Hillermann had two of the six Washington hits in the game, both singles. He drove in the run.
Borgerding doubled, the only extra-base hit of the game, and scored.
Sam Katzung and Justin Baylard also had singles.
Ross Seitter stole a base.
For Creve Coeur, Krause helped his own cause with two singles. Sam Riley and Cody Mayse also had singles.
Mayse and Austin Mischel put down bunts. Dante Edwards stole a base.
Post 218 played error-free ball, but Creve Coeur made two fielding miscues. Washington stranded seven runners and Creve Coeur left four on base.
After West defeated the Metro East Bears in the opening semifinal, Washington took on Jackson with Juergens on the mound.
And the Post 218 pitcher did his part, going the distance while allowing five hits and no walks. He struck out six Jackson batters in the win.
Washington gave Juergens all of the support he needed on one swing of the bat in the fourth inning. Borgerding celebrated his birthday with a home run to left center field.
In the fifth, Washington added a second run in the fifth inning. Bollmann led off with a single and moved to third on a double by Finder. Meyer drilled a fly ball to center and that was deep enough to score Bollmann.
Things got interesting in the bottom of the fifth. Jackson got a double to start the inning and then moved the runner to third on a one-out single.
With runners on the corners, Juergens struck out the next batter as Jackson tried a double steal. It seemed that Jackson scored a run and advanced the runner, but the umpire called batter's interference on the play and declared the runner going to second out as well, negating the run.
After an argument, the Jackson third base coach was ejected. Washington continued Jackson's troubles in the sixth with four additional insurance runs as Borgerding, Hillermann, Mitch Hammack and Seitter crossed the plate.
For the game, Finder and Seitter each had two hits.
Finder doubled and drove in one run. Seitter stole a base, scored and drove in a run.
Borgerding had one hit, the home run, scored twice and drove in one.
Bollmann singled, scored and walked.
Hammack scored and drove in a run while adding a sacrifice.
Hillermann had one hit, one run and two walks.
Katzung singled. Meyer contributed a sacrifice fly.

Today, our hearts are in Boston after the tragedy of the
explosions at the finish line of the marathon. We know there will
be some kids coming home from school with questions for parents.
Although it is never easy to explain tragedy to a child, we've
compiled a list of resources that should help you talk to your
child about the events that occured this afternoon.
From PBS
From the National Association of School
From the American Academy of Pediatrics
After the shooting in Newtown last December, we spoke to Dr.
Stevan Weine, professor of psychiatry and director of the
University of Illinois at
Chicago International Center on Responses to Catastrophes, for
some tips on discussing the school shooting with children. Much of
what he said can be applied to talking to your kids about what
happened today in Boston:
Most kids are resilient and will absorb this kind of scary news
and keep going or bounce back, Weine says. But if a child's play
begins involving violence or death, if they're drawing lots of
scary images, if they're not sleeping or eating or concentrating
well, if they're more sullen or withdrawn, it may be time to seek
professional help.
Let us plan your weekend with the best family events and activities in Chicagoland.
Start the week right with deals, prizes, parent life hacks and more delivered straight to your inbox.
Need last-minute ideas for a weekend of family fun? No worries. We've got you.

This home is outdated. The photos are deceiving. So many things in the home are outdated - the tv's, home stereo system, carpet, countertops, furnishings, light fixtures, etc. They even had VHS movies/ tapes that couldn't be watched -and no DVDs!! The air conditioner on the 2nd floor did not work, the bathtub in the 2nd master bedroom leaked, several ceiling fans wobbled and were loud. Several dishes in the kitchen cabinets were not clean - it was gross. The toaster didn't work. The coffee maker was from the 1980's. There were several other issues that we had to call maintenance to come fix. It was very obvious that this home was not maintained. The weekly rent of $10K for this house was GROSSLY overpriced. WE WILL NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN!! Unless they remodel the entire house and get new furnishings. The only good thing about the house was the pool and the location to the beach.
Tuscan Villa is a beautiful property. Destiny by the Sea was as prestigious as my girlfriend had described to me after her stay there last May. The laid brick roads and endless sunsets are something i will always remember.
The home itself is in great shape and housed our family of 9 comfortably. The amenities were all there and everything was clean.
The listing description was accurate and the photos accurately reflected the rentals appearance. Five Star was very responsive to the few questions we had during our stay. They answered most of our questions during the walk through they gave us of the property when we arrived.
Recommend for anyone looking to stay on the beautiful Emerald Coast!
Plenty of room for all with enough privacy to house a large group or family comfortably. HOME WAS CLEAN AND TIDY, LIKE BRAND NEW. Absolutely beautiful! DO NOT miss out on this house, BOOK YESTERDAY!
My family and extended family stayed at Tuscan Villa during the first full week in April and the house was pristine. We had ten people in our party and the house slept all of us comfortably. The home is beautifully furnished and we were able to take advantage of all upgrades that the new owner did to the property! Destiny by the Sea was the prefect place for our family vacation as it was very family friendly and quiet. We were also able to take advantage of the vast amount of outdoor space (porches, etc.) as the weather was as one would expect of Spring in Florida! The home was very clean and well-maintained, and the listing pictures accurately displayed the beauty of the home. Recommend this home for anyone looking for luxury! Five Star was there for us every step of the way and we will use them again.
I begin by saying that I agree 100% with everything that William from LA said. The furniture is very old and out-dated on the main living room floor. Albeit, there are 5 balconys, the patio furniture was worn and torn and not fit to sit on. There are two grills on the 2nd floor balcony, one of which needs to be trashed and the other that needs a real good cleaning. Upon arrival, the house was filthy...with the marble floors all needing a good mopping and waxing...the carpets were filthy and stained. The refirigerator was filthy and the stove was unfit to use. It was Monday before we was able to make contact with property management who did their best to meet our requirements to get the house fit for occupation but we were already into 3 miserable days of our vacation. Personally I bought air fresheners and the like to try and alleviate the musty smell of the house. I extend my Thanks to the property manager who on Monday had the cleaners come back in and do a thorough cleaning which included the mopping of the marble floors and who also had carpet cleaners come in and shampoo the carpet. My family and I have been coming to Destin for the last 5 years and have been staying at all high-end rental accommodations but I must say that this high-end really turned out to be a low-end rental at a very high price. Not sure where the breakdown comes into play on this rental but I do know that more stricter attention should be brought into play on the upkeep of this property. I do hope that for future renters that the issues mentioned in this review will be addressed and corrected so that others expecting so much more from what is a well planned out vacation will not have their vacation turn out to be such a Bust! The structure and the workmanship of the house is fine and true to pictures but the fault lies in the upkeep of the house and the main living room floor furniture as well as outdoor amenities (patio furniture and the like). Would loved to have had a chance to stay in this house under much better conditions...I am sure the visit would have been well worth the stay and the cost!
A week at Tuscan Villa in Destiny by the Sea was not worth the money. Having stayed at other homes in the same general area over the past few years, this property is way overpriced. There are other comparable homes near by renting for half of what we paid. We were expecting a much nicer, updated property for the premium price. This unit was apparently built in 2001, and in looking at some of the original(?) photos on the web site, some of the furnishings are as old and used as the home. The actual living area is smaller than it appears in the photos. True, there are 4 or 5 balconies that are part of the floor plan, but the one on the main floor (2nd) is the one probably used the most. We were 10 people total (8 adults, 2 children) and I think that is the max number for a comfortable stay. The floor plan is a little odd since one of the main bedrooms, the one on the 2nd floor, opens directly into the right side of the kitchen. Not very convenient if someone in your party is an early riser and wants to use the kitchen. And the light switches/controls located through out the home are very confusing, small little buttons and flashing lights with no explanation as to what they are supposed to control.
There was also a cleanliness issue that had to be addressed the minute we arrived. The main balaony on the 2nd floor opening from the living room was filthy. The floor area around the outdoor grill, including the grill, was disgusting. It was obvious the the tile floor han't been cleaned in some time. The outdoor chairs and table are very old and dirty; they look like something you'd see at a garage sale or flea market, not an upscale rental property.And to top it all off, sitting on one side of the balcony next to the table and chairs, is an old, rusted out, outdoor grill that belong in a trash dump.
This property needs some work.

Baby Shoes/booties
Decorating By minxie1320 Updated 15 Aug 2012 , 7:10pm by poohsmomma
hi all
i am making a welcome home cake for my new niece for a bbq on saturday, and i am making booties for the top of the cake. i am new to cake decorating. i am making the booties out of regal ice mixed with edible cmc and wondered if you can make the booites 2 days before the cake is being made so they dry completely. and how do i keep them fresh until saturday?
You can make these days, even weeks ahead of time. After they've dried, just keep them some place dark and cool. A cardboard box works best.
You don't really have to worry about them being fresh, because they're not going to be eaten.

Just loving life and my three kids....2 teenagers and a toddler
I just love my almost 15 month old....but sometimes all she wants to do is cling to mommy and nobody else. She also doesn't like sleeping in her own crib at night. When she does sleep in her crib she has nightmares...what should I do?
That is hard. If she doesn't wake up from the nightmares I would just let her sleep. If she does wake up rub her back or pick her up for a minute to comfort her and then try the crib again. Sometimes though once they have a nightmare only Mommy can make it better :-)
Thanks! How do I get her to sleep in her own bed instead of mines?
I would say be consistent about her sleeping in her crib. Make sure you don't give in and let her sleep with you. You could always stay next to her crib until she falls asleep. For us it worked to let our son stay in his room by himself at night. He would cry for a few minutes and I would go kiss him and lay him back down and we normally repeated that a few times before he would fall asleep but he eventually got it.
I'm no help here, I would just take them to bed with me. I am not a happy person when I get woke up, haha.
Melissa I'm with you on that

"Why bother?"
In Oblivion, just like in life, not everyone can be a 6-ft, 300 pound warrior. Not everyone can stand face-to-snout with a daedroth and whale away at it with a warhammer for half an hour. And not everyone can summon destructive forces of nature to their fingertips and lay waste to their enemies. Fortunately, for those who cannot do these things, there is the bow.
Bow Basics
"Just what is this fancy piece of wood, anyway?"
A bow is a length of wood, joined at the tips by a cord that draws the wood tightly into a curve. When an arrow is placed against the cord and pulled back, the bending of the wood creates elastic tension and will send the arrow flying when released. Bows can vary in length from about two feet long to taller than a person. In most bows, the string is pulled back between two and two and a half feet in order to create sufficient force for the arrow to reach and pierce its target. The bows in Oblivion are modeled after the recurve design – that is, the wood curves away from the cord at each end in order to increase force. They are also considered "composite" bows, as they are made from combinations of wood and other materials (iron, silver, dwarven, etc.).
In Oblivion, the bows are made from materials in the following order:
Material Base Damage
|Iron Bow
|Fine Iron Bow
|Steel Bow
|Fine Steel Bow
Every bow has a speed of 1, and the distance you can fire is based on your skill. The damage you do from an arrow shot is the base damage of the bow plus the base damage of the ammunition. Note: depending on your level and marksmen skill, the damage that you will be able to do will be different and will appear different in your inventory.
The ammunition progression is as such:
Material Base Damage
There are also numerous varieties of enchanted arrows, but we'll get to those later.
Firing Your Bow
"Putting that horsehair to use."
To fire your bow, equip both it and the type of arrow you wish to use. Try and do some target practice before you engage in combat – my favorite place is the archery range behind the Chorral Fighter's Guild (just don't hit the other archers). Stand well away from the target, about the distance 3-4 seconds of running backwards from the target would take you. Press and hold the attack button – a quick press and release will only drop the arrow immediately in front of you. Aim your crosshairs slightly above where you want to hit – for the target practice, this means about the top of the red circle. Against an actual person, depending on how far away you are you will aim for their head or above – arrows will drop as they fly. Release the attack button, and watch the arrow fly!
Before you leave to check on where you hit, mark your location with a piece of dropped equipment. That way you can keep practicing from the same distance and improve your aim. Go and see where your arrow is. If it is stuck in low, aim higher and try again. If it's too high, aim lower. Keep practicing until you get it right, and try and remember how far the target is. When you're firing at an enemy, knowing the distance and how high above your target you have to aim is essential. Keep on practicing farther and farther back, marking your place with equipment to aid you. The best part about this kind of practice is that you can retrieve your arrows afterwards, so you aren't wasting any.
Bows and Enchantments
"Putting the magic back in the relationship."
Bows can be enchanted. Arrows cannot. However – you can find or buy magic arrows around the land. A great place to look is on every guard in the Mehrun's Razor plugin; they have some great combinations of arrows.
The best enchantments to have on bows and arrows depend on the kind of effect you want to have. If you're trying to do serious damage, a bow with an elemental damage effect combined with elemental arrows your best bet. Damage health or attribute effects are generally not the best way to go, because your rate of fire is too slow to allow the effects to stack and really get the most bang for your buck. Other arrows have specific effects for specific situations, and we'll discuss some of those in the combat section.
A Note on One-Hit Kills
"Gee, he spontaneously dropped dead of an arrow through the skull. I saw a mudcrab yesterday."
The ideal situation for an archer is this: one arrow, one kill. One-hit kills result in a free ride, no retaliation, no wasted ammo, and no hassle. Near the beginning of the game you can wipe out most minor baddies with a steel bow and some steel arrows in sneak mode. As the game goes on, however, higher-level enemies can make your life miserable. Here's a few tips to getting your snipe on:
1: A good sniper is a patient sniper – don't try and make a shot if the target is wandering about. Wait until you know their routine, how long they stop walking for, and what way they're facing. That perfect shot is just waiting to happen.
2: A good sniper has powerful magic – combine an elementally enchanted bow with damage-enchanted arrows for best effect.
3: A good sniper is a good alchemist – brew your own damage health poisons to use on your arrows.
A combination of the above three tactics will help you to one-hit kill many creatures, provided you remain undetected.
Bows and Combat
"The art of not dying."
The kind of tactics you will use depend on the kind of enemy you're going to face. Here's a bit of a breakdown:
Melee enemies
(Zombies, Trolls, Fighters, Ogres, etc.)
This is the most difficult group to deal with as a marksman. Your best bet is to start off in sneak mode. Getting that extra 3x damage is essential for the long-range character. With the right landscape between you and your opponent, you can take off enough health that by the time they get to you a small tap with a backup melee weapon will do them in. Try and position yourself with lots of obstacles between you and them so they spend more time trying to get to you. If they're slow enough (like ogres) you can back up and keep firing to keep putting the hurt on them with your bow. Or, if you have at least 50 in Acrobatics, hold block and press back and jump – you'll backflip very quickly out of the way and put more distance between you and them.
As far as enchantments go, some decent elemental damage will knock huge chunks of their health off in a hurry. Drain health is also good, as it will give to you what it takes from them. Enchanting bows with either of these effects will require the Arcane University and a lot of gold, or the appropriate Sigil Stones. Alternately, you can enchant a bow with calming effects, so that every arrow that hits them makes them put away their weapon and chill out for a bit. Another popular method is to put a burden enchantment on a bow, so the big bad warrior is stuck in one spot while you pick away at him. The idea is to get as much damage done before they can reach you with their melee weapons.
If there are more than one melee enemy, you have basically two options. An Arrow of Immolation (65 fire damage in 10 feet), Stormcall Arrow or similar area damage bow or ammunition fired into a group does wonders to evening the odds. A couple of those and only weaklings remain to take out with your dagger. Another option is to fire a single arrow from the shadows at the closest enemy, then lure them to an out-of-the-way location so you can dispatch them at your leisure. Repeat until the whole group is done.
Occasionally, these tactics will lead to you getting swarmed by many large and intimidating foes. Should this occur, simply use every archer's fallback: potions of invisibility. Weak potions of invisibility are fairly priced, and a half dozen or so in the backpack will give you 15 seconds of respite each for you to make your escape and come back to the battle on your own terms.
Magical Enemies
(Mages, Necromancers, Vampires, etc.)
As before, your best bet is to begin in stealth mode and try to get in a good first strike. Mages rarely wear armor, so a one-hit kill is a definite possibility. Pick the biggest damage combination of bow, poison and arrow you can and let them have it.
If you aren't certain that you can kill the mage in one shot, something else you should try is an arrow or poison of silence. A low-level one will do – 10-15 seconds or so. When the arrow hits, they'll be unable to cast offensive or defensive spells. They also won't be able to summon undead or daedra, who can turn a simple mage-killing into a much more complicated endeavor. A mage without his or her magic is just a peasant in a fancy robe, and will fall quickly to another shot or two.
When mages do succeed in summoning creatures, do your best to ignore them. Once the mage dies, the creature will vanish. If the creature gets close or is blocking your shot, quaff one of those potions of invisibility we were talking about. Get into a better angle for your shot, and put a shaft between the mage's shoulder blades. And if you can't silence them, just strafe or dodge (for you journeymen acrobats) out of the way of their offensive spells and keep firing. Low armor level typically means a short battle.
Other Archers
(Bandits, Skeletons, etc.)
As always, the first arrow should be fired from sneak mode for the damage bonus. When the archer notices you, they will usually come a bit closer and then start firing arrows at you. The general pattern of the archer is to nock and fire an arrow, then strafe back and forth so you can't get a bead on them before aiming and firing again. You can waste a lot of arrows shooting at these jokers if you're not ready for their dodging tactics.
The best option available is to only fire when they make ready an arrow. Draw your bow back and wait as they strafe. When they pull out an arrow, fire and prepare to do some strafing of your own. Typically, archers won't fire when you're strafing, so pause briefly and give them something to shoot at before sidestepping the arrow. If you are a journeyman in acrobatics, then you may be able to get two arrows away at them before their one arrow gets to where you are. When they stop moving and pull out an arrow, fire the first arrow and immediately fire the second. Then go into a side roll (hold block and hit strafe and jump) and avoid the arrow just in time. It takes good timing and lots of practice, but is incredibly satisfying to pull off.
Good enchantments for fighting archers, other than the standard plus damage ones, are hard to come by. A decent pick is usually drain marksman, as it improves your damage-doing ability while harming theirs. A damage agility enchantment will screw their shooting up as well – a combination of the two and the archer might not hit you if you were five feet away. Using calming enchantments will get them to put their bow away and stop dodging, which is mighty convenient. When low on arrows or just plain frustrated, they will drop their bow and pull out a secondary weapon (usually a dagger). They usually suck quite a bit with it, so don't worry about it too much. Dispose of them in the usual manner.
A Note on High-Level Abilities
"Why I'm better than you are."
The three major milestones while leveling up any skill are Journeyman (50), Expert (75), and Master (100). The special effects for each level are:
Journeyman – Pressing block while the bow is drawn lets you zoom in. Personally, I never saw the point – once you get used to sighting targets normally, zooming can be confusing or distracting. However, it can be useful in especially dark environments, like caves or outdoors at night.
Expert – You have a chance to knock people down when you shoot them. This is especially handy against fighter-types, as it'll send them flying back and buys you some more time to do some damage. However, it is only a possibility that this will occur, and should not be relied upon.
Master – You have a chance to paralyze people when you shoot them. This is even handier than knocking them back, because you can take out a secondary melee weapon and flail away at them to your heart's content until they start to get up – at which point you still have enough time to run away and take another shot, should they require it. However, like before this is only a possibility, and should not be relied upon.

If you don't recognise the name I am certain that you will recognise the strong graphic artwork of Colleen Pugh under her Dear Colleen brand. Her "when life hands you lemons, make a gin and tonic" print has popped up on walls and blogs across the world for the good reason that it speaks the truth! UK born, Colleen has just moved to NZ's southern most city where she is soaking up the creative scene and making it her home. By the looks of things she is doing a fine job.
WHAT: These are a mix of shots from my home and my studio. I tend to split my time between the two depending what kind of work I'm doing. Plus some days I just want to work in my pyjamas and that's a bit frowned upon outside of the house!
WHERE: Both my home and my studio are in Dunedin, in the South Island of New Zealand. I'm still pretty new to the city but so far it's making a pretty good home. I'm originally from a big town in the south of England so I'm still getting used to such a different lifestyle but the positives out weight the negatives.
WHO: It's just myself working directly for Dear Colleen at the moment, although I do have a great team of local and national contacts that I call upon regularly to help me out with specific projects. The studio is in a shared space with lots of other creatives to keep me company. I happily share my home with my boyfriend Scott and our beautiful blue collie Castro.
DESCRIPTION: I moved down to Dunedin around 8 months ago and it's the first time in my life that I've felt I have a good home and work space. Up until now I have been living in flat shares and trying to run a fast growing business from the corner of my bedroom. Last year was pretty brutal; I moved 5 times and had to over come some big visa issues. So much upheaval definitely gave my business and myself a bit of a kick in the guts. I'm so grateful that people stuck with me through it and I managed to keep a float. 2012 is proving to be a much better year. Knowing that I'm in one spot for a while has given me not only the physical but also the mental space to get a whole new line of designs together. My boyfriend Scott is also a designer and works from a home studio. I love that I can just take over his drawing table and spend the day working with him, it's a real blessing that comes from both being self employed. Although I'm not sure Scott would see it as a blessing when I'm using up all his expensive art pens and well, everything else.

Ramadan Sobhi assists as Stoke lose 2-1 to Sheffield United
Ramadan Sobhi assisted a goal as Stoke City lost 2-1 to Sheffield...
Former Fiorentina players Giovanni Galli and Antonio Di Gennaro praised the club's newest signing, Mohamed Salah.
The 22-year old winger impressed on his full debut for the Viola in their 3-1 away victory against Sassuolo in Serie A.
Antonio Di Gennaro, a former Fiorentina midfield player and currently a Sky Italia pundit, praised the Egyptian during an interview with Lady Radio, saying: "Salah was a successful signing, he has acclimatized incredibly fast."
"It will be a hard game against Spurs, if I were Montella I would field Salah and Gomez. The Egyptian is quick, technical and he is able to read the game, he can make the difference," he added.
On the other hand, ex-Fiorentina star goalkeeper Giovani Galli told the same radio station: "Mohamed Salah showed that he plays for the team, unlike Juan Cuadrado who played for himself."
Reminder that the Egyptian international has been selected in Fiorentina's squad which travelled to London on Wednesday morning to face Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League's round of 32.

Don't waste money, no story, you don't feel for the characters. The end
is so abrupt every one was waiting that at least director would give
one good scene, but credits appear.
2/3 movie is about last movie and it was too hard to relate to any character and you feel what do I care...in last 30 minutes games start, no parallel story lines for other participants, again you feel I don't care if they win or loose. The action scenes are very average and the entire movie is so predictable.
It does not deserve this high rating. You will find it uninteresting and hard to retain interest for 2 hours and 40 minutes.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Before you catch fire this weekend, be sure to rewatch THE HUNGER
GAMES, because for the first half of this brooding, inferior sequel,
the characters do nothing but wallow in their extremely complicated
With banal, pretentious dialogue even worse than a soap opera, the teen-adored romantic adventure has reached an extremely corny level... Even the preparation for the games, introducing a new crop of teams and contestants, is dull and uninteresting.
The overall plot involves a post-apocalyptic world wherein The Capitol rules with an iron fist, and to avoid the threat of revolution there are televised games in which young people fight each other to the death... Making one highly resilient warrior, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), a revered folk hero risking everything for love.
Well if that sounds both intriguing and exciting, it sure was...
But this time around, the cutthroat survival aspect has been replaced by a wannabe JURRASSIC PARK with fanged baboons and other acts of bizarre nature including killer fog, thunderstorms and tidal waves
This overly computer-generated switch-up, attempting to raise stakes from the original, ultimately leaves the audience both within the film's game show and inside your local theater nothing and no one to actually root for.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
I went to see this movie after seeing that in IMDb, it got a rating of
8.3 out of 10. Even though I saw some bad reviews about it, I was
certain that a movie that got such a high rating in this kind of site
must have something to offer. My god was I wrong. Where do I begin?
Dialogue is poorly written and awkward at times. For example, when Peeta finds a pearl in the clam he just tells Katniss "For you" or something, and she replies with "Thanks" and takes the pearl. Wow. Just wow. What was the screenwriter or whoever writes that thing thinking? I honestly started laughing when I heard these lines.
Screen time is wasted and an hour and fifteen minutes into the movie, almost nothing happened and I started drifting away, something that has never happened in the first movie which I saw like three times. They did switch directors from the first movie, and it shows.
Unlike the previous Hunger Games, the sequel is plain boring, even in its most action-packed scenes, such as the toxic fog and the part where Peeta dies. So they manage to get past the fog and Peeta lives. Wooh, a twist! Everything that happens is so damn predictable and just uninteresting. Since over an hour passed until the games actually start, we don't get a chance to bond with the other tributes, and we just don't care about anyone except Katniss and Peeta. The part where the old lady runs into the fog in order to "save the others" could be much more emotional for the viewer if we only cared about her!
Also, ending a movie with a cliffhanger like this is just frustrating and plain lazy. This is something you can do in a TV series, where you get to see the resolution in the next episode in a week, but when done in a movie, it is clearly a way to force us viewers to watch the next sequel in order to get a satisfying resolution and cash-in on the way. In short, the ending is disappointing and doesn't resolve anything that happened so far. Did I just pay a full price for a prequel to when the story really kicks in to action?
I can go on and on about other things, such as the poor decision-making done by some of the characters (The bare-chested tribute knifing down the genius' wife while exposing himself to Katniss shooting him in the chest) or the stereotypical depiction of soldiers being sadistic, ruthless and unmerciful like robots instead of showing some small shred of humanity. I mean seriously, the Nazis weren't this cruel.
However, there are some good sides to this movie. Jennifer Lawrence acts wonderfully and does try to express some of Katniss' feelings. She does a great job. Josh Hutcherson gives a decent performance as well, playing the confused-from-love-and-fame Peeta. Other side-characters are depicted very well, and the overall acting in this film is superb.
Here and there there are some stronger scenes that save the movie from being a total bore, such as the fight against the baboons and Katniss and Peeta's first speech which was wonderfully acted.
Overall, this is a 5. There are some bright spots here and there in this movie, but they are just outweighed by the general boredom and heaviness of the rest of the film, and I found myself not giving a damn about nearly anything that happened on screen. Great acting and some strong scenes are burdened by poor dialogue and weak directing.
And that's pretty much it. I can't believe that this movie is believed to be one of 2013's best movies.
I was lucky enough to be able to watch the movie one week early, since
it opened here in Brazil one week before the release in the US, and I
must tell you this fellow The Hunger Games fans, even though my English
is not even that good: Catching Fire is a GREAT experience, and one
that improves over the first film in nearly every possible level.
When I first read the books, I thought that they were not only incredibly addicting and fun, but also with an important message for the youngsters (and every other person, age is not important) who read it, and that made it different from some of the other uninteresting YA books around. I really liked the trilogy, and when I watched the first adaptation, I was disappointed with some aspects and routes they went with it. It was not an horrible movie, at all, but it was not very faithful to the book and lacked the impact I found in the novel.
With that in mind, I kept my excitement in close watch with Catching Fire and went expecting a good movie and nothing more. I was welcomed with an excellent surprise: the movie followed the events of the novel whenever possible and brilliantly so, while managing to keep me on the edge of my seat, even though I knew what was going to happen the entire time.
I won't go into details about the plot of the movie, some fellow reviewers already did it probably better than I'll ever do and the chances you're familiar with it are high. So I'll go right into the review and my opinions on the picture.
Francis Lawrence was nothing short of an excellent choice for the director's chair: gone are the shaky camera action (one of my major problems with the first film) and welcome are thrilling and pumping action scenes that expertly convey the tension and ferocity of the moment. He managed to keep the violence and shock without ever crossing the line, and whoever read the books know how important this is; it's part of the plot, of the criticism and one of the main elements that make the whole point of the film. He keeps you interested and invested in the story even when nothing bombastic is happening, and that is a great achievement, something that really sets this sequel apart.
But Francis is not alone on making this movie special. His young and talented cast, lead by the always amazing Jennifer Lawrence, is ferocious and eager to invest in their characters, making you an ally (or an enemy) while watching everything unfold. Lawrence shows us again why she was the perfect choice to play the now iconic Katniss Everdeen: she makes you root for this young, brave lady every single minute of the struggle; with her sad, hopeless stare that pierces your soul to her ability to convey admirable strength when everything seems to be out of reach are phenomenal and she deserves the praise she gets.
The rest of the cast is uniformly good, but I have to highlight Jena Malone, who plays the explosive Johanna: her presence makes the screen on fire whenever she's in, mixing the perfect amount of attitude and humor. A particular scene involving an elevator and a fancy dress is at the same time hilarious and shocking, just like her character. Donald Sutherland also shines as the menacing president Snow, in a restrained performance that doesn't need too many words spoken to make you think twice on how dangerous he is.
The set pieces are also vastly improved upon: bigger, more ambitious and work perfectly in sync with the action to make for some really unforgettable moments. The arena looks beautiful and foreboding, hiding it's dangers behind the shining green water. So does the bizarre Capitol and the Districts, full of sadness and fear, two dichotomies in every aspect.
But what I really liked about the movie was that they didn't shy away from the political aspects from the novel and conveyed the despair and oppression imposed by the Capitol over the rest of Panem. It makes you think that all of this is happening around the world, in one way or another, maybe masquerade, but it is. It's sad that many teenagers are only in this ride for the hot action and beautiful people (some screaming girls in the movie theater I went only confirm this. They were not the majority, it was packed and most people were also extremely annoyed by it too - every time Finnick appeared it was a screaming hell). It has so much more to offer.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire not only improves vastly upon it's predecessor: it's a great cinematic experience by itself, touching on important topics about the modern day society without losing it's thrilling core. It's not perfect, but what it does right it goes right into the bullseye. Don't let the hype or the teen fury on this fool you: it is entertainment at it's best.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
I have neither seen the first movie, nor read the book. So I should
admit that I am an outsider to this Hunger Games hype. However, high
expectations for this sequel among the fans and high rating at IMDb
tempted me to watch it. The first thing I do not really get is 8.3
rating here. My ratings and IMDb ratings have never fallen that apart
in recent years!
The first 1:30 hours, (ie complete duration of a regular feature film) is definitely one of the most boring fist halves I have ever seen. The story evolves but without any strategic emphasis or proofs on none of the important plots of the story. The directing was so weak that I would not understand a real uprising is baking among the districts, if president Snow had explicitly informed us about that risk previously in the opening. The Victors' Tour meeting scenes were definitely far from adequate to reflect the revolutionary atmosphere in the districts.
Jennifer Lawrence's performance is one of the good things in the movie. In fact, in some parts her lead was the only reason to stay focused. But despite her acting performance we could not get her actual view of the events. The hope she creates in the people, or what she really cares, even her indecision between two man was not properly explored. And considering this superficial character building for the lead role, I am not surprised none of the other characters had a chance to become real. Shallow characters wasted a lot of drama during the film, especially in the more intense action scenes. Director's understanding of character building is having mere close-ups on beautiful face of Katniss Everdeen.
President Snow can not escape from the fate of being a shallow character. While Snow is the symbol of the authoritarian government, his character was only partly revealed and the director misses the valuable moments with sub par dialogs between Snow and his grand daughter, or others to create a solid portrait of a man of power and loneliness.
Finally, in the second half, the action starts. Despite the quality of the cinematography even action scenes can not surround you enough. As an important example, the idea of poisonous fog is a brilliant one, but the chase between the spreading fog and Katniss and her allies is not thrilling or even believable at all.
The final is the worst part. The whole final scene rushed into a mere couple of minutes to miss and ruin many important aspects of the story. Revealing the revolutionaries, explaining the whole grand plan behind the 75th hunger game are all squeezed into 2-3 sequences in the last 5 minutes. This short and economical final is of course a choice of director Francis Lawrence but then why did he kill us by boredom of around two and a half hours?
And of course the final scene is like a teaser of a TV series for inviting the audience to the third hunger games. No Sir, movies should be complete even if there will be planned sequels. There is a start and an end to the movies, at least the ones I prefer to watch.
So, why I still gave it a 5/10. I think this very poorly directed story is indeed interesting and progressive. The Capital, suppressed and poor districts, growing feeling of injustice, police terror, authoritarian and corrupt government and dictator Snow. All make up a good setting for a dystopian yet realistic sci-fi atmosphere. But director trivializes this brilliant story. Still Jennifer Lawrence leads the movie with her strong character. Cinematography is good, despite lacking in drama especially in action scenes. So the story would have really made it big in the big screen. But in the hands of Francis Lawrence, it became a boring and long sci-fi flick.
While I was leaving the theater, I was still trying to understand why it got 8.3 from IMDb. Fans?
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
This elaborate mess of a movie couldn't be more boring and silly. The
premise is astoundingly dumb, far worse than the original and a non
existent plot you can see coming a mile away.
The acting is wooden, the emotions fake and the direction dull.
I would say this is for kids if not for the whole murder aspect but you would have to be a child to like it. It comes off so hammy and unreal. I think I was about to fall asleep about ten times.
Please don't make a third one.
This is what we can expect from a generation of writers who have no sense of real drama, the Harry Potter and Twilight crowd who flock to this garbage like a moth to a flame and come out raving about it.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Really childish movie, this planet is going dumber by the minute.
Obviously the dudes well-connected enough to write for Hollywood can't
Just a few points: (1) not one intelligent (or at least funny) line of dialog in over 140 minutes; (2) The "Games" started after 81 worthless minutes; can't they afford to hire some reasonably intelligent dude to do some editing?; (3) The characters were one-dimensional (like in some fourth grader first attempt at writing): the big bro and the peace keepers-- ALL-EVIL, while Jennifer and her buddies were ALL-WONDERFUL; (4) The "Games" were ridiculously uncreative: poisonous fog that can be treated with water, really?!; (5) Not one twist during 146 min, except for the lame one (cuz it was overly expected, since it has to be at least some twist in any movie, right?) with the games director in the end.
If you're not part of the ridiculous tribe of low IQed 11-yo schoolgirls worshiping Bieber: RUN! My rating: 3/10
An earlier reviewer compared this to the Japanese cult favorite Battle
Royale and decided it was almost junk. I beg to differ - the film needs
to be evaluated on its own merits and its own story. Battle Royale is a
single story about merciless, wanton and senseless violence and
depravity when the aim was simply to be the last to survive - a kill-
fest, where the innovative ways of killing serve to shock and titillate
the audience but do little for the plot. The Hunger Games however, is
about oppression, fighting back and revolution. The Games, though
pivotal, are still part of a larger story.
Compared to the first film, this one is definitely darker. The characters look even more despondent than ever, and if you thought there were few laughs in the first film, there is practically none in this. Even the brightly-lit scenes featuring cheering crowds and smiling hosts seemed dim, bleak and depressing. While enjoying the witty banter, you couldn't help but wait for the 'but...'. The feeling of doom and gloom persists from the start to the end of the film. It is not a bad thing though - it is not supposed to be a happy movie.
Many details and subplots were understandably cut from the film adaptation, but none that were critical to the plot of the film. However, a lot of the peripheral action that were in the book is missing here, hence, though the story moves quickly enough, there is always the feeling that for an action-thriller, there aren't enough fights or explosions. The ones they movie do have aren't exciting or grand enough.
But in terms of story-telling, the movie still works to move from the first film and prepare for the third. The seeds of revolution have been planted and watered, and we now prepare for the maturing and harvesting.
Jennifer Lawrence didn't do as well here as in the last film, probably because most of the growing needed has been done previously. Josh Hutcherson though, put in a better performance. While he may previously be the injured lovestruck puppy dog, his maturing into a more complex character in this movie means he starts carrying more of the film.
Emotionally, this movie affected me less than the last one. Maybe it's partly because I know what is coming, but that accounts for a very minor percentage. Mostly it's because the film is unable to engage your baser emotions - nothing that truly tugs at your heartstrings. The pervading gloom also seems to have sapped any ability to feel more despondent than you think you already are.
It is still a movie that can be enjoyed though, and I did enjoy it enough. Hopefully the next film will provide for more emotional variance. If you don't feel for the characters, you won't care about the film.

OK, I'm not sure how I can review this one without dropping a few
spoilers here and there, so I marked this one as "contains spoilers",
just in case. First, you need to know the point of view from which I
approached this movie...in order to understand why I rated it awful. I
did not read the books. I did not read any of the books. In fact, I
can't remember a single book I have read in the past 10 years or so. I
*DID* however see the first movie in the series, Hunger Games. I went
to see Hunger Games only because I'd read it was a really good movie. I
was NOT disappointed. Hunger Games (the first movie) was one of the
best movies I have ever seen! 10/10, simply awesome!!!
In fact, it was because I enjoyed the FIRST movie so much that I felt I definitely had to see the SECOND movie in the theater.
And so I went to the second movie knowing NOTHING about it, other than having remembered that the first movie was awesome...
The first hour or so of Catching Fire was pretty boring. But it was easy to sit through it, as it was building anticipation for the action that you knew was coming. And oh yes, there was plenty of action to come later. But just as quickly as the action started, the action ended.
In fact, as the credits were rolling, I was glued to my seat. I was refusing to believe that it was over.
I've had a couple of days to ponder how to review this movie. At first, I was thinking something along the lines of... "It seems like the producers ran out of money halfway through filming, but decided to release it unfinished anyway..." But later, I realized... What I'd just watched (Catching Fire) was actually a two-hour trailer for Hunger Games 3.
No conclusion of plot here, just setting up plot for a future movie. I paid 10 bucks to watch a trailer. I feel ripped off.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Where do I begin? Of course the length. It's just ridiculously long, without anything that would make the viewer interested in, without principles or a cause. The main protagonist is a dumb little girl who can't even fathom her convictions, let alone hold on to them. She has a guy loving her, working in the MINES, while she's pretending not to like the parade of her and her "victorious" boyfriend from the games and all the posh show-off that happens. When the guy opens up to her and shows her that more than *she* matters, and the fact that he won't just run off with her, while all the rest stay in misery, all she can do is just leave. Then there's the other (long) part of the movie where she just starts to create this whole different relationship, while her lover is left behind the screen. What sort of morality is this movie trying to portray? Is this what the western world is moving towards to? Just awful.

The Desire Map Review
Are you one who holds a dream deep in your soul? Do you daydream about this life then dismiss it as impossible? I used to. I could taste it, I could feel it. I would secretly daydream about this life. I was so attached to it that I wouldn't even verbalize it to anyone worried they would confirm my worst fears, it was impossible.
After some detours I have finally found that path. I cannot tell you how amazing it feels! This is what I want for everyone woman out there! We are all worthy to pursue our dreams. We all have it in us whether we believe it or not. We don't have to settle for a dead end job or a sub par romantic relationship. Now, I'm not telling you to get a divorce or quit your job. At least take an honest looks before you do. You may just need a perspective change.
We can't make any life altering decisions until we know EXACTLY what we want! That's where The Desire Map comes in. This book is a life changer! If you are tired of status quo and want to pursue that deeply guarded dream, you must pick up this book.
The Desire Map is broken into two sections. The first section is an explanation and the philosophy behind Danielle LaPorte's new way of setting goals. Halfway through you will want to skip ahead to the workbook. DON'T. Let your heart and soul absorb her inspiring words. They will psych you up for the work you will have to do in the second half.
The second half of the book is a workbook. No use reading all about it and putting the book back on the shelf. Life won't change unless you apply her way of thinking. It is good work, promise! LaPorte helps you to step out of the mundane and figure out what truly drives you, what makes your heart sing. Maybe you don't have to quit that job or get a divorce. Maybe you just needed a change of view. Maybe after you finish the workbook, you realize your dreams truly ARE achievable and you CAN quit that soul sucking job. Maybe you just need a different position within the same company. You won't know unless you figure it out first.
Wouldn't it be worth a shot to find out if you could be excited to wake up every morning? Not only will you have a newly defined purpose, but you will know what to say hell yeah! to and what to politely say no to. One of the beginning statements is "Ideas. Introspection. Clarity. Action." This sums up the book perfectly.
Does this sound like I am telling you about a unicorn sighting? I promise, I am not. Why? Because I have applied her techniques and found a new giddy up in my step. I have a clear vision of what I want so I can plan steps to get there. No longer am I creating goals and beating myself up when they aren't met. They are merely guide posts and any forward motion, is enough.
Giiirl, you want freedom? If you aren't living a life that makes your soul sing, you must read this book! What do you want to achieve but think is impossible? Tell me…..

Cytochemical evidence for the leakage of acid phosphatase through ultrastructurally intact lysosomal membranes
- Received:
Fixation under 'improper' conditions ofin vitro cultivated cells results in an extensive diffusion of the lysosomal enzyme acid phosphatase because of the influence of a low effective osmotic pressure. In the present investigation, advantage was taken of this predictable diffusion in order to establish whether or not leakage of acid phosphatase could take place through ultrastructurally 'intact' lysosomal membranes.
In order to reveal small holes in the lysosomal membranes, secondary lysosomes were labelled with thorium dioxide particles, which were presumed to appear free in the cell sap if ruptures in the membranes larger than about Ioo Å were created.
The experiments revealed that following the fixation ofin vitro cultivated human glia cells under 'improper' conditions, mitochondria and ground cytoplasm show considerable swelling artifacts, while secondary lysosomes appear to be essentially unaffected. The lysosomes, nevertheless, apparently lost most of their content of acid phosphatase, as judged from enzyme cytochemical studies. These findings indicate that leakage of acid phosphatase from ultrastructurally 'intact' lysosomes is possible.
