Experience the RMS Titanic wireless messages in real time
On Sunday, April 15, 2012, it will be 100 years since the tragic sinking of RMS Titanic. To commemorate this significant anniversary, the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic will use Twitter to broadcast the vessel's original wireless transmissions.
Ten years prior to Titanic's sinking, the first wireless transmission to cross the Atlantic from North America was sent from the Marconi station in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia. Much like the short messages we send today via text, instant messaging or Twitter, wireless transmissions bridged distances between people and made it possible to share information across the world.
As the largest and grandest ocean liner of her time, Titanic was equipped with the most modern wireless technology available. When disaster struck, that technology proved invaluable as it was crucial in saving many passengers and, also, provided the world over with the stunning news of the loss.
This year, starting at 11:55 pm Newfoundland Standard Time (NST) on April 14, follow the hash tag #TitanicMMA and experience the magnitude of Titanic through the same wireless messages operators received in 1912.

The oldest continuously operated shoe company in the United States, stepping into a pair of Frye boots is like stepping into history. The company was founded in 1863 and run for 50 years by John A. Frye, a well-to-do shoemaker from England. Frye boots have traveled with soldiers from America's Civil War through World War II, and in the 1960s the Campus Boot, from its 1860 original, was reintroduced and soon rose to high demand. Today, Frye's boots still hold a place in American culture.

There is evil that lurks in the day.
The Sun may hold greater benefit, but it also causes greater harm. Why be so reliant on something that could so easily turn on you than it would feed and nurture you? It is not a mother, but a tyrant. Your advice is useless to me. I already know that I must enlighten others of the Moon's power - it is only when they defy it and follow the Sun instead when my vengeance strikes. If being a child means believing what I do, then so be it. Your words affect me as much as a baby's warbles do. The Lunari were wiped from existence, and I am the only one remaining. There is nothing to revive but their ideals must be heard. It is a simple fact now that the Solari will stop at nothing to crush the Moon and its power. |
Karthus now laughs. My words have no effect on you? They seem to have aggravated you quite nicely. You are very short tempered, child. Its quite ironic, really. The one with the power to sing the world to its end. You forget who you are dealing with here. I have truly enjoyed this little discussion. I hope you may have gleaned something from it. I bid you good day and farewell.

Organisers announce postponement of Melbourne's Event Showcase
[Tue 28/02/2012 01:24:04]
Exhibition and TradeFairs (ETF) have announced today (28 Feb) that their special events tradeshow, Melbourne's Event Showcase will be postponed in 2012 to take time to reconsider the format of the show. Originally called RSVP Melbourne, the owners and organisers of the tradeshow say the residual effects of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC), the consolidation of event suppliers and reduced marketing budgets continue to impact the events industry, and therefore the strength of the show. Organisers of the Melbourne's Event Showcase have announced a postponement of the exhibition for 2012. In 2008, the tradeshow operated at its peak; however the ill-timed 2009 event, which occurred just as the affects of the GFC hit Australia,made a significant dent in the momentum and success on the show floor. ETF conducted extensive consultations with industry representatives and visitors after the 2010 tradeshow to seek feedback on the future direction of the show. Led by Jodie Richmond, general manager & CEO, ETF took the recommendations from the industry and made significant investments in changing the brand, the venue and the dates of the show. "We are committed to Melbourne's special event industry and have worked hard to build on the strength of 'Party After Dark' and the 'Event Master Class' elements, including making major changes for the 2011 show. "However, the overall show format still doesn't appear to be fully resonating with the industry. Therefore, we have taken the decision to postpone the show for this year and focus our energies on better understanding the challenges and specific needs of Melbourne's event industry. "We want to ensure the show is valuable and relevant in helping Melbourne's event industry rise to meet those challenges, now and in the future," said Richmond. Consultations with industry members will occur later in the year to pave the direction for 2013 and beyond. The management and staff of ETF wish to acknowledge and thank the key suppliers to Melbourne's Event Showcase, especially the Royal Exhibition Building, InfoSalons and Exponet. The ETF team will now focus on managing the burgeoning success of Sydney's Event Showcase and the co-located Australian Business Events Expo in 2012.

CNET Editors' review
The freeware PDF writer opts for ease over customization with a one-step conversion app that works its will over any printable document. Once installed, pressing Print and selecting CutePDF Writer as a printer choice allows you to save the newly-made PDF anywhere in your file system. While we found the process flawless, advanced users who enjoy rolling up their sleeves for configuring greater DIY control should keep looking. Folks whose needs are more basic have in CutePDF Writer a fine choice.

"Forced to have Ask search bar with product on install."
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Did not get as far as trying the product out - see the cons
To install the Cute Pdf writer, you have to agree to accept the Ask Toolbar on Internet explorer. Perhaps you might be able to uninstall the extra toolbar - but I did not want the hassle.
As I sought to install the Cute Pdf writer, you have to agree to accept the Ask Toolbar on Internet explorer. I.e. is clutered enough already without yet another tool bar. So I did not install it. The proverb hold - there's no such thing as a free meal!
So if you are happy to have another toolbar - this may be the product for you.
If not try another free pdf creator. -
"Good, but has glitches"
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Easy to use
Will glitch consistently when creating PDFs from some PowerPoint files. When this happens, it will stop after a certain page and print an error message in the PDF. It will not be able to create a print form this PPT.
CutePDF is easy to use with a very simple interface. However, I have repeatedly run into a glitch when trying to create a PDF file from a PowerPoint presentation. Only a portion of the presentation is converted. Thus, CutePDF does not always work.
"Great alternative to standard print w/ PDF style output"
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Easy to install and use. I like that you don't have to cancel all the ads or select the free version every time you print like other PDF writers.
Haven't found any negative issues thus far.
Great option if you're looking for PDF writer freeware.
"Simple, fast, and does the job."
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Quick download, easy installation, and easy to use.
None for the average home user, except perhaps that it does not open the document after it prints. Only a con if you want that feature.
I downloaded this application as a simple PDF writer so that I could print documents to PDF on my home computer. (Things like receipts from websites, etc, to cut down on paper.) This is the second laptop I have installed it on. I'm running Win 7 on this one; previous install was on WinXP.
CutePDF may not have a lot of features that power users of Acrobat may require, but if all you need is to create PDFs through the print interface, this is a great free app. It installs in seconds and appears as a printer choice in your print options. -
"Great program. Excellent quality. Works really fast."
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Great quality. Very fast.
None experienced.
This is a really free pdf converter (not just for trial). The Pdf documents that it produces are of excellent quality, much better than that of its competitors I have used. Additionally it works really fast. It is now my permanent pdf converter. I only wish Cute would also have a Pdf-to-Word converter.
"Its the right staff for me"
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Its simple and its free, easy to use everybody will like it!
No comments so far, useful for me!
The cutePDF is a free software an alternative brand from adobe. This product can recommend to friend to use to their daily PDF conversion.
"does what it suppose to do"
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
small appl. does what is designed to do
none so far.
basic print to pdf needs.
"Simple product, but adds malware"
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
Simple interface, easy to use
ALWAYS installs Ask.com toolbar even when told not to.
I've used the products for years now, but lately their business practices have been getting shady. Would avoid.
"Another Life Saver from Cnet"
Version: CutePDF Writer 2.8
What's not to like? I was looking for something to convert Word to PDF's I have Office 2003 and don't have the money to upgrade to 2007 or Windows 7 where this problem is taken care of for you. Great product.
No frills, but I just needed the basics.Cons
None I can see now, except there was a converter I had to download before this was installed. It added a little extra time since I'm on dial up, but it was worth theextra time.
I just downloaded so haven't really experienced it yet, but I did try it out and it works perfectly. It's fairly easy to install but probably would be easier if I wasn't on dial up. Out here in the country of South Texas, that's all we can get for the time being though.
Thanks Cnet for another winner. -

Is there also a bus from Bangkok via Kep and Ha tien including the ferry from Ha tien to PQC ?
where does it start in BKK and where can you buy the tickets.
Hi there, I am intending to travel in HCMC for 4 days around mid May. Will it be safe for a female to get around herself? (: I don't speak Vietnamese & is slightly concerned about that. If not, could you pls recommend how I could get a female guide w me for 3 days, or arranged day trips at hostels if possible? Thank you so much for your help!
Hi, we're planning our trip in june for a month. We know in June in can get quite rainy in Vietnam. Do you think we should consider another destination? or is it tolerable? Thanks!
I will be in Hanoi next month for about 10 days. I will be making calls so I will need a prepaid phone. Can I purchase one at the airport? Are they readily available in the city?

If I have a one full day, is it possible for me to go to My Son and Hoi An with a private tour and back to Danang ?
If I have to choose, which one is better: go to My Son or go to Hoi An ?
Thank you,
We will be visiting Hanoi, Hue and Ho Chi Minh City next year by cruise ship. I know this is not the best way to visit a country, but because of physical limitations it is the most practical method for at least one member of our group. I also don't like tours arranged by the ship – they are usually rip offs and not too interesting. I understand that the ship docks 2 to 3 hours away from the cities. Does anyone have recommendations for a tour guide or service that will pick us up at the ship and take us into the city and provide a tour and some sightseeing. We will probably stay overnight in at least one or two of the cities, rather then return to the ship. Any idea about what this might cost? I would appreciate any help or comments you may have. Thanks.
I am going to visit Vietnam for a week - arriving Hanoi on May 3 and leaving on May 10.
Any advice on trip planning is appreciated.
If someone wants to meet or join - you are welcome. :)
P.S. I am thinking of visiting Ha-Long, Cat-Ba and Sa Pa. Isn't it too much for one week?
were traveling vietnam on May 1, i take a medium size suitcase because i can't wear a backpack and we will be traveling around the country by public buses or train
Will be in Phu Quoc in 3 weeks and we are staying at Cassia Cottage. Can someone tell me if you can walk to the night markets from here? Also my hubby & I wanted to hire a motor bike - semi or automatic . Is it better to hire one each or should I ride pillion. I have ridden in Hoi An hinterland before. Where is the best place to hire and the cost per day? Also where can I get a map to ensure that we can ride around the whole island without getting lost? Any other tips would be most appreciated.
I have already prepaid for my accomodation in Hanoi. The staff member that arranges the tours through the hotel is also a travel agent. He told me that I could pay by cash or credit card when I check-in or check-out of the hotel. After supplying him with a date of when I would like to go on the overnight Halong Bay trip, he has now emailed me a form and wants me to fill in my credit card details. After what he has told me before, do you think this sounds odd? After all, I will be checking into the hotel 5days before the scheduled Halong tour and can pay him by credit card when I arrive. I definitely won't supply him with my credit card details via email !!!
Any art classes in Vung Tau? drawing, painting, sculpting with model?
I am travelling to Hanoi soon and would like to know where I can buy nail art decoration products in particular nail foils and nail foil adhesive? In Australia I have only found one place that has a huge range and I would still have to mail order it so I thought I'd wait and see what Hanoi had to offer. Most travel guides discuss beauty salons but I do my nails myself. I am looking forward to my trip because I've never been there.
I am also considering the 2 Day 1 Night V'Spirit Classical Cruise for my husband and I due to the excellent reviews on trip advisor. What do other VT members suggest as we only have a budget of around $100 per person for that ?
Is there anyone with recent experience in renewing a 3 month Vietnamese visa? I have heard that travel agents can be quick and reasonably cheap
please sent me the prices for van or mini bus for 14 passanger. Emai add: firstname.lastname@example.com

Where to hire or take a motorbike tour near Hanoi?
Myself and the girlfriend are heading to Vietnam in June for two weeks. One of the main things i want to do is tour the areas around Sapa, or Ninh Binh (or any other areas people recommend!) by mo-ped/motorbike for 2-4 days. The guided tours seem relatively expensive when considering the cost of simply hiring a bike.....So are there any areas that people have ridden around and felt comfortable on bikes without using a tour guide? Or would you suggest taking a guided tour, if so, which are the best companies to use and how much? Thank you!! :D

Hi members, I will arrive Da Nang international airport by 29 Apr 2013 morning and I wish to travel to Hoi An.
I wish to know what kind of transportation available and the charges needed?
so far, i asked for hotel airport transfer and they quote me usd22. I'm not sure is it over price or not. Advice needed, please.
Hi All,
I am trying to plan my holiday and would like to have your opinions on my draft itinerary..especially I would like to get comments whether it is feasible in terms of time and also what place would you include or eliminate.
So here is my rough idea at the moment:
-Day 1, Arrival to HCMC visiting the city and day trip to Cu Chi tunnels.
-Day 3, Visit to Can Tho , floating market and return to HCMC
-Day 5, flying to Hoi An via Da Nang. Visit to My Son and Hue
-Day 7- Flying to Hanoi and visit to Halong Bay. 3 days
-Day 10 Flying to Na Trang /Mui Ne,Visiting around and train back to HCMC.
-Day 13 HCMC and Flying out
Also did you ever fly with Vietnam airline? how did you find it?
Are there any companies and/or individuals arranging photo tours with locations in Nha Trang or Khanh Hoa/Da Lak?
I have an absolute horror of snakes but want to visit Vietnam as it looks beautiful . Where and what should I avoid ?
I'm going to be spending a couple weeks on the east coast between Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi. Does anyone know of any river rafting excursions and their prices? Your responses are much appreicated!
Hi I'm going to Vietnam at the end of April and I was wondering if you could tell me what are the best beaches between Ho Chi Minh and Hoi An since I will be travelling the coast. Thank you!
3 weeks travel to Vietnam, any tour suggestion and accommodation suggestion for around $30 p night.
I want to check out the Mekong delta in end of May. Love photography and want to explore the floating markets and life on the Mekong. Can Tho markets are an early start so i know to head down the day before.
My question is do i book local tour for two nights in Can Tho
or get local bus and own accomodation?
Look foward to hearing your feedback on ways to explore the Delta.
Hello!Well I have an idea of going around HCMC wearing an Ao Dai when I go there end of April. Do you happen to know where I can buy one? I know the best Ao Dai makers are in Hoi An but I do hope I could find a good and affordable Ao Dai in HCMC. Thanks!~Haydee

I have to agree with other posters - this is an older ship. It did not have the bells as whistles of its sisters in the fleet but we still had a terrific time. While we didn't have a mini-golf course or a surf machine, there was still plenty for both my son and I to do. While the 80's decor of brass and muted colors were prominent throughout the ship, it didn't bother me because it was very clean and well-kept. I did not encounter the "sewage smells" that other posters complained about. We were in an inside cabin on the third level - near the main dining room and the photo display areas. Very convenient and surprisingly quiet. The room was tiny. That's to be expected in an inside cabin but we spent very little time in there so it didn't bother us. A big shout-out to our cabin steward, Yossy. She was fabulous! Very attentive, warm and friendly. She kept our room clean and refreshed. She was AWESOME with towel animals (which my son LOVES) and she made sure we had a new critter nearly every night!
We never ate in the formal dining room. It just didn't fit our style. My son and I preferred the casualness of Windjammer. Terrific staff at lunch and dinner. We sat in the same area each night and got to know the wait staff. They were very accommodating and kind. The food was okay. The best entrees were the make-you-own stir frys each night - Asian, Italian, Greek. The buffet was your typical buffet you'd see at a Golden Corral - good, not fantastic. Their Indian selections were fabulous. Don't miss them! Dessert was average (but it didn't stop us from trying them all anyway!)
Enjoyed the pizza at Sorrento's very much. It made for a great afternoon snack. Wish there was more than one ice cream soft serve machine. We had a cone daily and there was always a line, not more than 3-5 people and it moved quickly but always a line.
CoCoCay is amazing. Best $20 spent for the giant inflatable slide. You can ride it all day. I think my son went up and down dozens of times. Money well spent! The aqua-park was also a hit with my son. But you need to have very good arm strength to get onto the inflatable. I spent more time bobbing in the water while my son was climbing and sliding. It was a reality check that I really am getting old!
Nassau was great. We didn't plan any excursions. Just went off the ship for some morning shopping. Don't forget to bargain at the Straw Market. We actually spent a good part of the day on the ship and enjoyed the pool and deck all to ourselves. Most of the passengers were off on excursions and it was delightful to have some peace and quiet!
Day 4 was an at-sea day and thank goodness we got our lounge chairs at 9:00am! It was a beautiful and sunny day and the deck was packed. If you arrived after 10, you couldn't get a chair. Good music, fun atmosphere. Great day in the sun. Only complaint, my son was dying to go in the hot tubs and they were always filled to the max with either college co-eds or other adults. So he had to enjoy his time in the pools instead.
Embarking and leaving the ships was mostly flawless. Didn't like the college spring-breakers who jumped the lines to cut in with their friends. They should have waited in the lines with the rest of us. Didn't say anything though b/c it wasn't worth the hassle. Even with a ton of college-aged kids on board, they were quite well behaved during the day. We didn't partake in the evening/night activities so can't determine if the stereo-typical "spring break" stereotype was true. During the day they were nice kids enjoying the sun and the hot tubs.
It was a wonderful vacation. Worth its price and we did get a bargain. I prefer a slightly larger ship but if were traveling to the Bahamas again on a 4-night vacation, I would sail with the Monarch of the Seas again!

Chernobyl Diaries Review
Posted in Film, Film Reviews on May 25th, 2012 by TracyWhen I first saw the trailer for Chernobyl Diaries, my initial reaction was apprehension because it seemed like it was just another "found footage" film. It was, after all, written and produced by Oren Peli, the man behind Paranormal Activity. For some reason I keep going back to these types of films even though I can rarely sit though them. This is a topic I've touched on before, and each time I keep thinking that this film will be different….which can be interpreted as the definition of insanity. So with Chernobyl Diaries, naturally I thought, once again, that maybe I'll be able to get through it without spending 80% of the film looking away from the screen.

To a degree I suppose, certainly to offer refuge to civilians fleeing the fighting, but I do wonder if the Turkish response has gone "beyond and above the call of duty". I think the only thing that would make sense to me, would be a Turkish dread of the consequences of a long drawn out affair that left them with large number of restive Syrians Sunni's within Turkish borders and a increased level of unrest in the region, especially among the Kurds.
If then Turkey decided that its best interest was a short sharp change at the top in Syria, over before too many Syrians were not only discomforted by the violence, but had time to become used to feeling uncomfortable, then I can understand and sympathise with their predicament. I think that would also nicely dovetail with your point about Assad not reacting in accordance with the Turkish rulebook and Turkey being very sensitive about being seen as ambivalent about the advice of the book being declined.
I think though that this is now simply an academic point as the short sharp change is not going to happen and the "coup de grace" which would have brought the troubles to a conclusion has not worked, with the rebels now holed up in Aleppo and clearly being annihilated. In short the situation is now happening that they embarked upon their current strategy in the hope of avoiding. It is now for all interested and active parties to take stock and reconsider their positions.
I think it is no coincidence that Iran called an emergency International Conference on Syria which took place today in Tehran.
Fars News Agency :: 27 World Countries Attending Tehran Conference on Syria
29 Countries (including the host) attended: "Representatives of different world states, including Russia, China, Belarus, Mauritania, Indonesia, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia, Turkmenistan, Benin, Sri Lanka, Ecuador, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Algeria, Iraq, Zimbabwe, Oman, Venezuela, Tajikistan, India, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Nicaragua, Cuba, Sudan, Jordan, Tunisia and Palestine at the level of three foreign ministers, two acting deputy ministers, 7 deputy ministers, 15 ambassadors and also the UN envoy to Tehran are attending the meeting."
That is quite a turn out and a real shame that Turkey was not in attendance as it shows them at odds with the vast bulk of Asia, including nearly all the other Turkic states of Central Asia. Given the weight of the influence which has been brought to bear to try and Isolate both Syria and Iran, I think that so many countries would go to Tehran over this issue and show support for the Iranian position is a significant event in its own right and sends a highly unambiguous statement.
More interestingly again is that this seems to be an opening event for an August and September of regional events in which the Saudis and Iranians seem to be seeking a new rapprochement with each other. This suggests a major change in Riyadh and rather supports the notion of radical changes at the top, in line with the rumours of the demise of Prince Bandar Bush.

• No wigs • No costumes • Just music
"Superb musicians playing Led Zep songs rather than some good players impersonating Led Zep." David Palmer 22.10.12
NEW clips now on video page
Listen to the new line-up! New recordings of Stairway To Heaven, Kashmir, The Battle Of Evermore and Since I've Been Loving You are now on our Audio page
Unlike the majority of bands on the tribute circuit, Whole Lotta Led are a sound-a-like as opposed to a look-a-like tribute band. They believe that the music comes first and wearing wigs and costumes can distract from what they are trying to achieve - which is to play some of the best music ever written.
Whole Lotta Led were originally formed as No Quarter in 1993 playing a wide variety of rock standards, original compositions as well as the odd Led Zeppelin number.
Audience reaction to the Led Zeppelin material in their set was such that in January 1996 the band decided to play exclusively Led Zeppelin numbers and changed their name to WHOLE LOTTA LED.
Originally playing local clubs and pubs, the band soon progressed to the major rock venues (some of which Led Zeppelin themselves played) touring all over the UK and Europe.
With the band becomine increasingly in demand, Whole Lotta Led turned professional in January 2001, thus becoming the UK's ONLY full time tribute to Led Zeppelin and are now considered by many to be one of the UK's top tribute bands.
WHOLE LOTTA LED regularly play two and a half hour sets and perform approximately 100 concerts a year to enthusiastic crowds.
New generations are continually getting involved in the Led Zeppelin experience. Audiences at WHOLE LOTTA LED gigs can span four generations from six to sixty and for most it is the first opportunity of seeing and hearing Led Zeppelin's music performed live. The bands aim is to reproduce the classic Zep songs with the same enthusiasm, excitement and passion that the original band created.
The band have also been very active in raising funds for The ABC Trust, a charity founded by Jimmy Page's wife to help under privileged children in Brazil, the involvement with the charity eventually led to a meeting with Led Zeppelin's legendary guitarist Jimmy Page who has given the band his blessing and wished them all the best.

"This is not a tribute, this is the best band in the world" Graham Tonks 17.5.13
"Saw you tonight at The Memorial Hall in Barry. Thought you were excellent. I really liked the things you said about not trying to be Zep but just paying tribute to them. You did a tremendous job of it. Robert Plant has a freakishly powerful voice but I'd say you matched him. The music was perfect. Thanks for a great night and all the best." Rob Hughes 17.5.13
"Hi just seen you at Sutton for the first time, awesome, totally blown away, thanks so much, best thing I've been to in a long time :-) !" Phil Higgs20.5.13
"The first time I have seen you play was at Secombe Theatre in Sutton. You guys are out of this world! My daughter and I were so mesmerised by your diverse musical talent, amazing stage personality and interaction with each other and the audience. " Natasha Gamaroff 20.5.13
"Great show at Barry last night - nearest thing to Zep that me and my lad will see so many thanks for that!" Neil Andrews 18 .5.13
"Just seen the band for the first time at the Sallis Benney Theatre in Brighton and I was totally blown away! The reviews and comments had prepared me for something good but not THIS good. The band is tighter than Robert Plant's "Golden God" trousers! The sheer musicianship is staggering - even if you're not a fan of Zep, you HAVE to see this band to appreciate what true musical talent really is. In an age of electronics and sampling, one evening in the company of Whole Lotta Led will restore your faith. And if you're a Zep fan who never had the pleasure of experiencing the boys live, book your tickets now - close your eyes and you're there! What more can I say? Just brilliant!" Jonathan Rich 3.2.13
"Guys - absolutely amazing gig friday night, simply outstanding, thanks so much, brilliant work, fantastic singing and superb musicianship, I'll certainly be coming to see you again." James Aldred 3.2.13
"Wow, just WOW!! We've seen you guys three or four times now but last night at Blackburn King George's Hall you surpassed yourselves. The new line-up is just brilliant - David on keyboards brings a whole new depth to the sound; Charlie brings the drums alive - and what a cracking drum solo last night mate!; and Lee performed the impossible - although Planty is still very much alive and with us, I swear Lee was channeling him and it was his voice coming out of Lee's mouth! Absolutely bloody brilliant! John Hewitt 27.1.13
"They're not just a band, they're an M&S band." James Windsor 30.11.12
"Great gig in Blackburn last night! Loved the new line up. Thanks for braving the elements to make sure the show took place - much appreciated" Michael Henderson 27.1.13
"Brilliant last night at the O2 Newcastle; third time we've seen you and you're getting better every time. Great new line up. Already looking forward to next year." Steve Ovington 13.1.13
"Amazing tribute band....a must see! A tribute band that does a band justice with an amazing vocalist and brilliant musicians!" Lin Hardy 6.10.12
"What a concert. A stunning performance that made me pleased to be there. The new line-up has raised the level of quality in Whole Lotta Led performance of Led Zeppelin music." David Hucklebridge 29.7.12
"Saw you at The Brook last night! Fantastic! With the new line-up, the band has definitely gone from strength to strength." Peter Burley 28.7.12
"Drummer was absolutely excellent, vocalist closest we have ever heard to RP. We would highly recommend seeing Whole lot of Led." Debbee Tapner 29.7.12

Congrats to Screenwriters Chosen Film Independent's 12 Fellows
Posted on: August 18, 2010No comments yet
Film Independent, the non-profit arts organization that produces the Spirit Awards and Los Angeles Film Festival, has announced the 12 screenwriters and film projects selected for its 11th annual Screenwriters Lab, sponsored by the Writers Guild of America, West. Taking place in Los Angeles from August 12 until September 16, the Screenwriters Lab is an intensive six-week program designed to help writers improve their craft, and take their current scripts to the next level in a nurturing, yet challenging creative environment. Screenwriter and producer Meg LeFauve resumes duties as this year's Lab Instructor, and Lab Mentors and Guest Speakers include Nicole Holofcener (Please Give), Erin Cressida Wilson (Chloe), José Rivera (The Motorcycle Diaries), Josh Olson (A History of Violence), and Kay Schaber-Wolf (WGAw).
"Our Labs have always attracted a high level of talent from different backgrounds and disciplines, and this year is no exception," said Director of Talent Development Josh Welsh. "With expert guidance from Meg, Nicole, Erin, José, and Josh, our Lab Fellows will not only hone their screenwriting skills, but also move their current projects closer to production."
In the Screenwriters Lab, Fellows are advised on the craft and business of screenwriting under the tutelage of the Lab Mentors, and are also introduced to established screenwriters, producers and film professionals who serve as one-on-one advisors. The Screenwriters Lab is provided free to accepted screenwriters, and upon completion, they become Film Independent Fellows, receiving year-round support including access to Film Independent's annual film educational offerings, on-staff Filmmaker Advisor, and the Los Angeles Film Festival.

So this last weekend was a great time spent with family. My mom, brother and sister-in-law drove up from Glide Saturday morning to run around and go to a bridal show and the Jack Johnson concert. The weekend was hectic but very fun. The initial plan was to tackle the Bridal Show with the ladies on Saturday and the concert Sunday. Everyone arrived at the house around 2:30 PM and we decided to hold off on the Bridal Show until Sunday to let everyone get settled at the apartment. Saturday night was spent going to the pool hall with Nathan, Krystal, Jimmy and Dru. It was nice to just hang out at the bar and visit with everyone. My mom decided to stay home, claiming she doesn't go out at night anymore. Yea…she's a wuss sometimes when it comes to having a good time.
After getting to sleep in a bit on Sunday, we started to get ready to head to the Bridal Show. Alisa happened to have the day off as well so we took her along. The Bridal Show was so overwhelming with all of the booths and venders. For some reason I hadn't thought about all the tiny decisions I still have to make for the wedding. We all got some great ideas and my mom and I finally got to get together to share our ideas for my wedding. It was a great family day.
We got home from the show just in time to grab a sweater and head out the door for Jack Johnson. The concert was in Washington so we had a 45 minute drive ahead of us. My brother Jimmy was so excited that he was practically vibrating in the back seat the entire way there. He had apparently been dreaming about the concert and waking up talking about Jack Johnson for the last three days. The concert was great and he really sounded amazing in concert. The weather couldn't have been any better as the rain waited until after the concert. I'll be posting some pictures of the weekend on here later.

Letter - Bales is attentive to our concerns
We take this opportunity to support Ms. Bev Bales for re-election to the Douglas County Commission.
To the editor:
We take this opportunity to support Ms. Bev Bales for re-election to the Douglas County Commission.
Our family has for decades had a cabin on Lake Irene. We spend the summers here and winter in Manhattan, Kansas, where I have served both as a commissioner and mayor. So, we have a sense for how commissioners can and should represent their constituencies.
Commissioner Bales worked on our behalf last year with a wood chip plant proposal that had been under consideration for the north side of the lake. It would have been an economic disaster had it been approved, as over a quarter billion dollars of properties up here would have been subject to non-stop noise. Commissioner Bales was attentive to our concerns and personally engaged in the turkey processor ultimately withdrawing its application.
So, we hope you find her worthy of another term. She's certainly earned our respect, trust and this strong recommendation.
Bob and Julia Strawn family
Miltona, MN

2nd Congressional District Race
Featured in Top Stories
It's the local election that's drawing national coverage: the race for Oklahoma's 2nd Congressional District seat. The battle is between Republican Markwayne Mullin and Democrat Rob Wallace, but both contend this isn't just a fight for a political post. One says it's a choice between right and wrong, and the other claims it's a choice between socialism and the republic.

Foreign Policy
Foreign policy was front and center in the final presidential debate. While most American voters remain focused on domestic issues, what happens on the international stage can quickly become any administration's primary concern. Whether it's trade, the environment or national security, international relations have a profound impact on u.s. policy, affecting all of us. So we discussed U.S. foreign policy with our guests: Mohamed Daadaoui, Associate Professor of Political Science at Oklahoma City University. Louis Furmanski, Chair of the Political Science Department at the University of Central Oklahoma. Peter Gries, Director of the Institute for U.S.-China Issues at the University of Oklahoma.

But Hispanics aren't just waiting for the parties to reach them; rather, the youth of Oklahoma's Hispanic communities are becoming increasingly involved in politics, providing a bridge between the national stage and their fellow immigrants.

Farm Bill Update
Congress reconvened for a short stint starting September 10th, but not much was accomplished before they broke for another recess. Among the bills left unattended was the Farm Bill, a beleaguered piece of legislation that's been reworked by both the House and the Senate and ultimately still left undecided. We spoke to the President of the Oklahoma Farm Bureau, Mike Spradling, about the legislation and what it's holdup means for local farmers in this ONR excerpt.
