Walterboro is a city of beautiful, living memories, with Old South plantations dotting its surrounding countrysides and peaceful scenes graced by Spanish moss swaying gently from hundred-year-old live oak trees. Established as a summer haven for rice planters from lower Colleton County in 1784, Walterboro served a similar purpose from the 1920s to the 1950s, when it was qThe Placeq to stop for anxious vacationers making the trek from New York to Florida. Around Walterboro hopes to recapture those earlier days when Walterboro's main commercial ingredients were made up of family-owned businesses located along two-lane highways instead of today's chain motels and fast food restaurants stationed along the exits on expressways. This volume allows the reader to walk down dusty, shady country roads, examine the exteriors and explore the interiors of some of Colleton County's most historic buildings, and stroll along the avenues of downtown Walterboro and the beaches of Edisto Island.... 66 Palmetto Court, 89 Palmetto Inn, 22, 61, 75 Pattersona#39;s Service Station, 49 Paul-McTeer-Burtt House, 64 Peoplea#39;s Pharmacy. 30, 35, 39 Pine Crest Restaurant, 53 Poco Sabo Plantation, 99, 112 Pon Pon Chapel of Ease, 20, 30 Post Office, 19, ...

Evan Rachel Wood has urged the public to go easy on troubled pop star Justin Bieber, insisting youngsters who grow up in the spotlight should not be criticised for making mistakes.
The Wrestler star began acting when she was a child and found fame with her role in gritty teen drama Thirteen before making a successful transition to more adult roles.
Wood admits she struggled with life as a famous teenager and feels sorry for fellow former child star Bieber, whose bad behaviour has made him a regular in the headlines over the last few months.
She tells Thedailybeast.com, "I can't imagine what it's like to be him. When you're a teenager in an adult career, people expect you to be perfect and expect you to never make mistakes or to be a reckless teenager. And then when you are, they give you such a really hard time for it. You have to remind them that you're still a kid."
Wood goes on to reveal she was deeply hurt by the criticism she received over her relationship with former fiance Marilyn Manson after she began dating the 36-year-old rocker when she was just 19.
She adds, "I was never a Bieber or a (Miley) Cyrus, but I think the judgment was there, sure. People were pretty mean. At the time I hadn't yet been exposed to that kind of cruelty from strangers. If people were wondering why I was acting so-called crazy or like a teenager, it's because I was. People go through phases. People make mistakes. People go through life and don't get it right every time."
Wood and Manson ended their brief engagement in 2010. She is now married to actor Jamie Bell, the father of her infant son.

RiffTrax Live! Sharknado (2014)
Jun 5, 2015
Next we get a shot of Mike driving, filmed with the cameraman sitting in the back seat. People with severe emotional problems and weak stomachs should probably leave the room, because we're now about to endure something I refer to as the God Hates Us And Is Now Punishing Us Five-Minute Drive From Hell. It begins when, with absolutely no dialogue or movement of any kind, this one shot goes on for twenty-five seconds. I'm not exaggerating. Twenty-five freakin' seconds!!
To get an idea of what this feels like, here's a simple experiment you can try at home: Stare at the image on the right, and start counting: "One-potato… two-potato… three-potato…" all the way until you get to twenty-five. No, seriously. Go ahead and do it. I defy you.
Can't be done, can it? Now just imagine your eyes are being held open like Alex in A Clockwork Orange and someone's forcing you to stare at this image. That'll give you a good idea of what it feels like to watch this shot. Of course, I should note that we're just getting started here, because once this shot is done, we cut to another shot of Mike driving, filmed from exactly the same angle! (The funniest thing is that parts of this driving montage were actually filmed on an El Paso street called—no joke—Scenic Drive. I'm guessing the name "Armpit of America Boulevard" was already taken.)
I watch the minutes of my life slowly tick away until, thankfully, there's actually some dialogue. (Never in my life did I think I would be so grateful to hear Hal Warren speak.) Mike wags his finger, angrily insisting that the Valley Lodge sign pointed this way, so they must be going in the right direction. Of course, nobody said otherwise, but I guess we weren't supposed to notice that. After all, it's not like we just had a forty second gap of silence where they could have inserted dialogue to this effect.
Anyway, the wife now tells Mike to go back and ask the Make Out Couple for directions. Mike agrees to turn around, but, astoundingly, continues driving in the same direction for another fifteen seconds. [!!] Then we have a cross-fade to another [!!] shot of the back of Mike's head as he drives. Finally, we fade to a shot of Mike turning the wheel, only there's a weird slow-mo effect at the beginning that I'm pretty sure wasn't intentional. Either that, or Mike is making a "bionic" U-turn.
Now, get ready, folks, because here comes—are you ready?—more driving! Shot from the same damn angle! Dear Lord, what did I ever do to deserve this? Look, I'll return those library books I stole, I'll give back the quarters I took out of the March of Dimes collection box at the 7-Eleven, just MAKE IT STOP! Thankfully, just as Mike appears to be about to drive right into a sand dune, we mercifully cut away and I put my head down to recuperate.
After I've dealt with visions of beasts with seven heads and rivers turning to blood, I look back at the screen and see that we're back with the two kids making out. Just as we cut to them, however, something black and white flies through the frame. Closer examination reveals this to be the clapboard [!!], accidentally left in the final edit. Now, in most productions, a clapboard is used for the purpose of synchronizing the film with the audio recorded on location. So I don't even need to point out how stupid it is to use a clapboard in the first place when your camera doesn't record sound.
Just then, the same two deputies who pulled Mike over for his "tail light problem" drive up. Doped-up Claude Akins comes out and says, "How many times we have to chase [?] you kids?" Make Out Guy protests that they're not doing anything wrong, so the deputy looks at them for a mini-eternity before finally saying, "Well, whatever it is you're not doing, go don't do it somewhere else!" Surprisingly, the kids don't have a spiritual awakening after being confronted with this Zen-like koan. Then, for no reason, there's an extreme close-up of Make Out Girl staring off in the distance. After ten excruciating seconds of this, she turns around and yells at the cops to leave them alone. Then she turns back and gets a disgusted look on her face like she just remembered the taste of the cough syrup. The deputy simply responds that he wants "no wisecracks" (hmm, so he's the one) and tells them to move along.
We cut back to Mike and family driving around in the dirt for a solid minute. I'd complain about this, but the part of my brain that actually expects quality euthanized itself ten minutes ago. Finally, finally, they come to an old shack out in the middle of nowhere. Mike comments that "it wasn't here a few minutes ago!" but the wife doesn't care as long as they can get some directions from the "person at the door".
We get a tight close-up on the guy at the door, and with his shaggy red beard and decrepit mountain man clothes, I briefly assumed that Mike and his family had accidentally stumbled upon the Unabomber's secret hideaway. We zoom in even closer on this guy and find his head quivering like a bobblehead doll. He's also holding a black wooden staff shaped like a hand that looks like a giant Afro pick. Mike decides to drive up and talk to him, so we get to watch every last thrilling moment of Mike making a U-turn and pulling up closer to the shack. This is followed by us getting to watch every last thrilling moment of Mike getting out of the car, coming around to open the passenger door, and letting his family out. At long last, the guy at the door speaks.
|Guy at the Door: I am Torgo. I take care of the place while the Master is away! [Pause.] But the child! I'm not sure the Master would approve. Or the dog! The Master doesn't like children.
As Torgo speaks, the wife struggles not to make eye contact with him, while Mike says all they want is directions to Valley Lodge. Torgo tells them he's never even heard of the place, then spends a full five seconds silently twitching and shaking like Katharine Hepburn in On Golden Pond. (I must admit, however, that despite the terrible acting by the guy who played Torgo—and by the guy who dubbed his voice—I still find this character strangely likeable.)The wife gets nervous because it's getting dark soon, so Mike demands that Torgo give up the goods and tell them how to get to the lodge. Torgo looks off in the distance for several seconds before replying.
|Torgo: There is no way out of here. It will be dark soon. There is no way out of here.
In response, Mike suggests that his family spend the night there [!!!!], but his wife is naturally not too keen on the idea. The two argue, but for some reason the camera stays focused on Torgo, who's just staring and convulsing. Mike asks Torgo if they can spend the night, and Torgo just twitches some more. The couple goes back to arguing until, finally, Torgo pipes up that "the Master would not approve!" Mike tries to force the issue, but Torgo remains non-committal.
For reasons I can't quite fathom, we get an "ominous" piano chord accompanying a tight profile of Mike. Then there's a comical thirty-second sequence as all three of them silently shoot each other dazed and queasy looks, strongly reminiscent of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Finally, the daughter breaks this unbearable tension (i.e., boredom) by yelling something completely indecipherable. From the sound of things, all of Debbie's dialogue was recorded using the sound system from a fast food drive-thru. Mike asks again if they can stay the night, and inexplicably, Torgo finally agrees, but warns them that "the Master will be very disturbed."
We then get a wide shot of Torgo, and for no reasons that are never delved into, he has huge, knobby knees. (The official explanation, according to the interview in Mimosa, is that Torgo is supposed to be a satyr, i.e., half-man, half-goat, but nothing else in the movie even remotely hints at this.) The wife and daughter head inside, and Mike tells Torgo to get their luggage.
Torgo complies, spastically waddling over to the car like Michael J. Fox when he's forgotten to take his meds. And every time we watch Torgo waddling around in this movie, it's accompanied by a strange musical theme that can only be described as the bastard offspring of the intro to The Days of Our Lives. The music stops abruptly as Mike hands him the family's luggage. Torgo again repeats that "the Master would not approve", and then his own personal theme song starts up again as he stumbles up to the shack with luggage under his arms. (By the way, if you were worried that we wouldn't get to see every single second of him waddling back to the Unabomber Shack, you can rest easy.)

There was a very long discussion about this some time ago. The consensus seems to be that if you must install a 32bit library, there is no downside, unless it replaces an existing library that other programs use, and breaks those programs in the process. I do find it odd that an amd64 package has a 32bit library dependency. Then again, stuff like this isn't all that rare when installing commercial software. > By the way, i have installed all this packqge on a test server, and it > seems work fine. > I'm reading documentation about hpacucli to learn how it works.

FYI, the Areca PCIe RAID cards have a 10/100 ethernet port and you manage them via a built in web interface, out of band. No software to install, as the kernel driver is in mainline (in recent kernels anyway). I'm not plugging Areca here, as the cards are apparently lacking somewhat in the performance department WRT competing cards in the same price range, and customer support is seriously lacking.

The Foreign Service (Verified 2016) 1746 Terrace Dr Roseville (St. Paul/Minneapolis) (651) 635-0395 Email: Click Here Web: www.theforeignservicemn.com All Saab repairs including transmission overhauls. Drivability specialists. Submitted by Kris S. SAAB SPECIALISTS AND DIAGNOSTICS EXPERTS, owned by Stew Roberts I first came to The Foreign Service when my previous shop could not figure out how to get my new to me SPG running smoothly without stalling. After numerous visits and a several hundred dollars in parts I tried another shop. Stew tested the car and quickly determined that the timing was off and needed to be adjusted. Within an hour he diagnosed the problem, adjusted the chain and got my SPG running perfectly. I quickly switched to Stew and The Foreign Service for all my vehicles. That was 4 years ago. Over the last 4 years, Stew and his staff have been great. They really care about their customers and offer various options tailored to their needs. They will recommended OEM, aftermarket, rebuilt, or used parts depending on the customer's needs and the situation. They have all the necessary Saab specific equipment and tools to get the job done right. I highly recommend Stew Roberts (Owner) and the Foreign service even if it's not a Saab. They even have a small fleet of loaner Saabs when you need it. Submitted by Wil W. I have been going to The Foreign Service for over 3 years and have always had excellent service at a reasonable price. They always take into consideration my needs and what makes the most sense for my car. They also explain exactly what's going on and what they need to do. The best part is they often advise me about potential issues they see that need to be addressed in the future though immediately. I can then budget these things in and know what to expect. They are the best. Submitted by M C C.
Uptown Imports (Verified 2017) 2904 Harriet Ave. So. Minneapolis 612-822-6490 Web: www.uptownimports.com I have been compelled to write this letter which I am certainly not accustomed to, until now! After suffering through multiple major repairs on my 2001 Saab 9-5 at other "Repair Shops", I was forced into searching for a professional, reputable repair facility. I spoke to friends, family and even went so far as to ask a technician at Morries Saab if he had any suggestions as to where I might find someone that did high quality work for a reasonable price? When the Saab technician pulled me aside and said that "Uptown Imports will take care of you", I made the call. In January of this year my 17 year old daughter was driving my Saab (I'm sure with kid gloves) down 394 at an undetermined speed when the engine was blown. I live west of the metro, so I had a shop in Mayer, MN locate a used motor with 35K miles and they installed it for a total of $6200. Shortly after the 30day warranty expired it began to leak oil. The leak worsened and I returned to the scene of the crime. I was told I shouldn't have bought a used engine. Not quite the answer I was looking for. My search mentioned earlier began. I was greeted on the phone by Steve and treated more professionally than I am at my doctor's office. He thoroughly explained what they would do to diagnose the problem and said they would contact me as soon as they knew what the best plan of attack would be. He followed through exactly as stated and I was given a quote over the phone which they stood by. In each and every instance John and Steve have done exemplary work on my Saab and I have nothing but praise for Uptown Imports! I have been in sales for over twenty years and consider myself to be driven to exceed all of my customer's expectations; it is for this reason that I also have very high expectations when it comes to receiving service of any type. Uptown Imports has exceeded those very high expectations on every visit regardless of the complexity, and it is for this reason that I am writing this letter of praise and my highest recommendation! Submitted by Chuck C. Hey these guys are great I have been bringing my SAAB to them for about four years now and they have always treated me great me being a woman and all (gotta check out the bathroom it's great!). They tell me what's wrong with my car (when I pick it up they even show me my old parts!)teach me how things work and never belittle me because I am a woman. They have the SAAB factory scan tool I think it's called a Tech2 from what they have said not many shops have this tool in the Twin Cities. The other thing that is great is the Car Care Club Card it has all kinds of great offers and saves me gobs of money on my repairs and maintenance! If you are looking for a shop that is helpful and knows what they are doing when it comes to SAAB's you'll be happy you chose them I know I am! Oh by the way they were just voted best auto repair shop in Minneapolis and St. Paul by Citysearch.com! Submitted by A. M.

Please Say Gabourey Sidibe Is Really Going to Host SNL
E! Online is reporting that the Precious and The Big C actress will be hosting sometime this season, but they don't have a date yet. We hope this rumor is true, even though they also say that Jennifer Lopez is hosting this weekend, which is sort of true except it's a repeat. Tina Fey, Ryan Phillipe, and, of course, Betty White are already booked for the season, so looks like the only open spot is April 24 (with musical guest MGMT). [E! Online]

Vacation Day #3
It worked out to get together today for lunch. They came to our hotel at noon. We sat in the lobby for a long time catching up and story telling. We went to eat and ended up sitting there until 5pm. What a fun visit. We sure never struggle to have anything to talk about. It was like visiting with family. They even paid for our dinner. What a treat.
Now we are relaxing and tomorrow we will hit the road again.

Studio space- two options
My company wants to set up a more permanent studio space for video production, mostly talking heads and interviews.
They want to turn this office into a studio.
The problem is that this office is only 15'x13'. I just don't see how I can get proper distance between the camera, the talent, the greenscreen, and the lights.
I think the better option may be to put some effort into making our downstairs storage space into a better video setup.
The room is much bigger and is defintely better for getting good visuals. The problem with this option, is room is terrible for sound. It is right next to the boiler room, and (as you can see in the photo) has HVAC running all over the ceiling. I have been told there is no budget for constructing walls or anything that kind of scope. I am thinking, however, that I might be able to convince the decision makers that we can make it work.
I am thinking that with some sound-adsorbing drop ceiling panels and maybe a heavy drop curtain, we can make the room work.
Does anyone have any experience or ideas on this type of thing?
Thanks in advance.

Please give more details on the exact kind of shoots and projects you'll be doing.
The too-small upstairs room sucks because of the window. The downstairs location sucks because of noise, and you will not be able to turn off all that plumbing stuff.
Neither is a good location for a "real studio"., one that would get used several days a week.
Does the upstairs room have a central door leading into another room or a hallway? I have had shoots where the camera had to do a telephoto shot THRU the open door into the actual room, just to get the right separation for depth of field and etc.
You can certainly put up cheap u-haul or Harbor Freight type movers blankets or rugs on the walls and cover the window. Some bounce-light off white walls will give you a soft overall light level. But don't promise them you can be a Star Trek Holodeck in this space: a locked-off, sit-down close-up prompter read is about all you'll be able to do. It may not be room enough to set and light a green screen.
How frequently do you think the space will be used? Could you maybe just book a conference room or small ball room at the local hotel when you actually need it?
Do you have a loading dock, perchance? I've had good luck using one for PSA shoots with greenscreen.
Another idea could be to shoot after hours and commandeer a much larger space in the place you already own. Have to work around the scheduling of course.
I feel your pain, friend. I'm an in-house guy too, and nobody ever understands (superlative). My first studio was about 6x9. I was there for 2 years and never did anything but stills of swatches (which we scan now) and a few corporate headshots. It was ludicrous.
I like the shooting through a door idea, I've done that many times myself. That room would actually be not so bad if that could be arranged. The window is a challenge, but easy enough to block the light. If there's not a door centered on the short wall, you might be able to get them to put that in the budget. One door is way cheaper than a whole room.
For that storage space, you might be OK if HVAC is your only noise, unless it's super loud. It's better to not have that, but the problem can be minimized with very close mic placement (not eliminated though). Plus, I'd rather have a little HVAC noise than zingy, too-small room noise. But that's just me. If there are other people in that storage space that might be a problem. Are people loading/unloading or using forklifts or anything?
I have a good dedicated space where I work now. But often times I shoot other places when required. If you're doing 90% talking heads, you could shoot in the small room and then set up in other spaces when required.

In my mind, I have decided that the small office will not work and I should focus my energies on the making larger storage space work and I think the company is on board. I am optimistic that the sound issues can be minimized without a huge expensive construction project. With some sound-absorbent ceiling tiles and a heavy black curtain surrounding the space, I think we can make it work.
Keep your fingers crossed everyone.

Ok then.
You had a choice that was better for video (the big space) and one that was better for audio (the small space) and you went big.
No problem with this - IF - you can keep your projects visually oriented over being audio oriented. That means you should try to push for projects that can be shot MOS and do the audio separately as VO plus bg music.
Your larger studio will be pretty bad for typical sync talking heads - because with that much HVAC and boiler stuff, you're never going to get your noise floor for an "open room interview" down to a level where it's going to be easy to work with.
First purchase is a good set of monitor headphones and learn to hear the room - because the room sound will drive you nuts over time.
Sound blankets are file, but see you can talk the powers that be into building you some kind of dedicated VO booth - an enclosed space with enough mass to dampen the HVAC rumble. And track down a few folks who don't suck at VO narration, because without that - you're gonna struggle to keep your audio quality high.
My 2 cents.

The Characters:
Phil - Our hero, a social introvert. He should have spent more time looking for a hypoallergenic wig.
Sandy - Ghost of a cheerleader who was killed in the 50's (apparently a previous time the evil was set free). She wouldn't have to ask me twice about climbing in the back seat. Rowl!
Melissa - Descendant of a famous witch that was hanged in the village square over three hundred years ago. I think that, were I her, a new state of legal residence would have been in order. Becomes a vampiress.
Vinnie - LeVar Burton! Now we know how Geordi went blind: compulsive masturbation. The boy's libido is in full swing and his girlfriend refuses to give it up. Turned into a vampire.
Mitch - The group's big, dumb jock member. Strangled to death by his undead father.
Mary - At first Phil has a fancy for her, but she is blinded by her own crush on some other guy. Yet another vampire victim.
Capt. Jensen - Kurtwood Smith! Police officer who is turned into a zombie (with fireball fists) at some point.
Mrs. Jensen - No relation to the above to my knowledge. Maybe asking her to chaperone the teens' Halloween party was a bad idea. She spends most of the night getting tanked on wine, then joins the nosferatu click.
Phil's Father - Dick Van Patten! As a dentist, he has some "enchanting" views on suffering and relationships. Zombiefied.
Lester - Local redneck that is savaged by a werewolf. Probably spends a lot of time sniffing his dogs' butts.
Lucinda - Here is Melissa's (insert "great" a number of times) grandmother, the witch/vampiress.
The Plot:
Pitchford Cove observes Halloween like so many other sleepy New England towns. The exception here is that, long ago, Nathaniel Grenville (Phil's ancestor) saved the town by hanging their local witch, Lucinda. Okay, so maybe that was not uncommon in New England back then. I am a novice in the background material, but the African-American witch angle seems unique. We will also discover that the evil released by Lucinda was very real indeed.
Following an exciting day at school, the highlight of which was the attractive female substitute teacher, the characters finally decide on their costumes for the Halloween party. In the small building that serves as Pitchford Cove's local museum are housed several wax figures portraying Lucinda, Nathaniel, and a conquistador (odd... ...moving on). The first two are dressed in garments actually worn by the people they represent. Mitch gets the idea that the artifacts would make great costumes for him and Melissa.
I might not be the first to point this out, but the clothing in question is three hundred years old! No doubt the curator who dressed the wax figures probably developed an ulcer from worrying about something ripping. These idiots plan on "borrowing" the attire, dancing, then returning it with no one the wiser. Get a lawyer Mitch, because the plan has some small holes in it.
The teens manage to get past Lester and successfully obtain their costumes. They also happen across an old trunk bearing the Grenville seal. Petty theft loves company, so they take the trunk too. There is only one place befitting to change for a Halloween party; Mitch stops off at the old graveyard. After donning costumes, their interest turns to the trunk (slightly battered by rough handling, at least it is acting its age). Inside are Nathaniel's ring and a timeworn scroll.
To the delight of most assembled, Melissa reads the baneful inscription writ upon the scroll in her best witch's voice. The curse is plenty evil; the only thing missing was a reference to the "black goat of the woods with a thousand young." Why she would cast a spell, intended to raise demons and the dead, on Halloween night, in a graveyard (where a mass murderer and a witch are both buried, to boot), is beyond me. I'm an adult who considers himself rational; go look at that last sentence. Seems to be a bad idea, right?
Nothing happens at first, but after the teens drive off the graveyard soil vomits forth a horde of undead. Leading them all is Lucinda, also resurrected by the scroll's power. The only exception to the evil horde is Sandy. The cheerleader wanders into town to see what's hopping and runs into Phil. Their meeting is brief, both going their separate ways, him to the party and her to where her house used to be.
Phil soon grows weary of the party though. Mary is oblivious to his advances and some weird people are filtering in. The latter would be zombies, who should be conspicuous by their reeking of rotting flesh, but maybe everybody at the party is congested. No, that is not it either. Melissa scolded Vinnie for his costume's smell (bandages smeared with ketchup and leftovers). Heck, I don't know why the smell goes unnoticed. Anyway, Phil changes back into regular clothes and leaves.
The despondent protagonist happens across Sandy again while driving home and immediately has a very spunky cheerleader on his hands. She wants to visit the malt shop, drag race other cars, and fog the windows at lookout point. Plus, to satisfy the male fantasy completely, she improvises a set of pompoms and does a cheer at one point. Yes, there are worse fates that I can think of than being saddled with an uninhibited 1950's cheerleader. A pretty one too. Too bad for Phil that Lester, now a werewolf, interrupts the petting session.
Back at the Halloween bash, Lucinda grows fangs and attacks her descendent in the wine cellar. I have been trying to figure out why all the bottles started either leaping off the racks or spraying their contents when the attack happened. Oh well, it is probably folly to dwell on little things. Melissa soon bites Vinnie; after that the number of undead at the party rapidly multiplies. This sets us up for the film's crowning scene, where Melissa sings "Get Dead." Remember Michael Jackson's "Thriller?" Well, one zombie looked like an extra straight out of the video. Now the partygoers perform their own little music video. It is um, not quite as good as "Thriller."
The police do not believe Phil and Sandy's story, so they depart the station. Stopping by his house to arm themselves, Phil sets about making silver bullets. He melts dental fillings (remember his father's profession) and then dips bullets into the liquid. Two things are wrong with this approach. One is that the bullets are just that, only bullets with no casing (hence gunpowder) attached and Phil has no clue about reloading. Two would be the fact that adding extra diameter to the round will probably make it get stuck halfway down the barrel.
Sandy comprehends the situation facing them completely and tells Phil how to stop the evil. Nathaniel's ring is crucial to sealing the scroll again; wouldn't you know, Mitch was wearing it as part of his costume. The two stop by the party, but find that the place is dead (oh, bad webmaster) and Lucinda is waiting for them. They do manage to get the ring back while fleeing. Finally, cornered in the car, the two frantically work to reseal the scroll as undead swarm over the vehicle (the witches just flap their capes). The cheerleader disappears along with all the other spirits when the spell is undone, leaving a very dejected Phil to mull over his jacket, draped on Sandy's tombstone.
I must say, the movie had some fun points. The music selection was, with one glaring exception, very good. Plenty of golden oldies with announcements by Wolfman Jack thrown in for good measure. The vanilla characters (Except for Sandy - Rowl!) were a major detractor throughout. Accepting Phil as the bona fide hero was onerous, but I took comfort in knowing that he will require lots of counseling before going out on another date.
Things I Learned From This Movie:
Never hire a hemophiliac as a paperboy.
In the old days people were buried with explosives, just in case they woke up and needed to escape.
Halloween is a dentist's favorite holiday.
Lycanthropes have 20/20 vision.
Werewolves can be warded off with silver, wolfsbane, or Keds.
Driving While Dead (DWD) is far worse than DWI.
Back in the fifteenth century they burned punk rockers at the stake.
Vampires are susceptible to crosses, wooden stakes, or being smacked upside the head with a flashlight.
Stuff To Watch For:
1 min - Possibly the dumbest thing I've seen somebody do all year.
17 mins - Oh, so that is where fog comes from: piles of leaves decomposing in graveyards...
25 mins - Zombie midget! Cool!
31 mins - You are a rube; only in this movie would she fall for you.
33 mins - RANDOM ACT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST A CLOCK RADIO!
57 mins - No way! He must have something other than a stock engine in his convertible!
76 mins - "Your suffering will be legendary, even in the field of dentistry!" Hehehehe!
80 mins - Enough of the surreal opera stuff, this is annoying.
Audio clips in wav format
Starving actors speak out
Phil: "Well, this sounds just like the curse Lucinda let loose on this town exactly three hundred years ago tonight, to set the free the demons of hell and to bring back the dead from the grave."
Mitch's Father (Kevin McCarthy!): "You kids stay away from me with your stupid Halloween pranks! You hear me? Stupid punks!"
Sandy: "No, I don't really want to be with a bunch of people I don't know. Especially since I won't be around for long."
Phil: "What do you mean, you won't be around for long? You're not thinking about doing something crazy, are you?
Sandy: "No, I'm not thinking about killing myself, if that's what you mean. What a waste of time that would be."
Policeman: "Burglary on 4th and Mason - pack of kids dressed up as zombies. Mrs. Phillips on Jackson swears she saw her husband turn into a bat and fly out of the window. He was heading north on Main Street and she wants us to keep an eye out."
Captain Jensen: "Halloween, my favorite time of year."

Good morning fans. I usually dont write after Halloween at this post, but I wanted to thank those who have written (Thanks Lalyn) I had my annual viewing of Midnight Hour, and as I always do, I had a tear in my eye at the end. Too bad they dont do a follow up film, and have Sandy return years later, to either find out what's up with Phil, or have a new adventure of her own. If they do, then I will be there to see it. If not, then well we at least have our claasic MH to see each and every year, so from me to you all, Take care, and keep writing in to this post, and see you all next year!!!

This is my favorite movie on the face of the earth. I watched it when it came on TV a long time ago. Since then, I rented it about a thousand times when you could rent it. I am now 32 and it is still my favorite movie.
I don't understand why it is so hard to find, I even emailed Anchor Bay about releasing it on dvd. It is not a bad movie at all. It is a great movie and it will always be my favorite. I wish they would show it every year at Halloween time like they do Charlie Brown--how come you can buy that at every gas station around-but they won't put this clean great movie out to buy? It will be a custom at my house to watch it as much as I can. I hope all the actors who played in the movie are OK, and I hope they know that this was not a cheesy movie but a great addition to anyone's movie collection. Angie

Just bought this movie and watched it for the first time since 1987. OMG - Love this movie. It's kind've spooky for a made for tv movie I thought. I love the eighties. Everything always seemed more fun. They need to make more movies like this for Halloween. I was so excited to watch it although I could find no one to join me
. I still very much enjoyed and will watch it over and over again. Lee Montgomery is soooo hot. I loved him in 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun'. Or as Melissa writes during a game of hangman 'Ghouls Just Want To Have Fun'.

WOW, I can't believe it's been THAT long. My mom showed me this movie when it first aired on ABC in the 80's, something about Lucinda that frightened the hell out of me. Especially that scene with her and Shari Belafonte in the wine cellar and Lucinda talks about "quenching the thirst", that whole scene creeped me out when i was younger:P I'll never forget it. Even tho it was made for TV, I think it is still pretty cool and quirky:P I wouldn't mind watching it again, it's been about 20 years or so.

UK political parties and constituencies are going through a period of 'change-and-upgrade' in relation to their campaign practices and constituency management. Ever since social media became a must-have for politicians there has been a pressure to manage their public life through digital means. In most respects, the US still leads the way in this type of engagement and there, politicians have now moved to digital organising to manage everything from volunteers to canvassing to donations. Even though politics is different in most countries this type of engagement is certainly the way things are going in the UK also.
The Labour Party have been using a US software provider, NationBuilder, for a number of years to manage their voter databases and establish online presence for them in the form of websites. The Tories have worked through three different iterations of a voter outreach app for their constituencies, none of which have yet captured the imagination of constituency teams. Sinn Fein are well known for their Twitter presence with Gerry Adams going so far as to publish a book of his tweets, for those of us who missed his wisdom in real-time! The UK Green Party use Ecanvasser to manage voter outreach and track issues in their community. The Lib Dems use Connect from US company NGP Van. The SNP have also tried NationBuilder but have since fallen back on their own systems of voter tracking.
In the international context, the UK is still far behind the US and, to a lesser extent, behind Australia and Canada in terms of digital organising. It is, however, a good bit ahead of many countries in Europe where data protection laws are more restrictive on information that is allowed to be held on citizens. Germany, for example, does not allow political parties to hold a constituent database so they are forced to campaign 'blind', not knowing what a person's political leanings are. What is clear is that UK parties are making a great effort to catch up with the latest best practice and what is also apparent is the slew of US political consultants that are lining up to work with UK parties. For example, the Remain campaign and Theresa May's leadership run both employed US consultants to advise on strategy and messaging.
So, we can see that digital campaigning is a process that has certainly begun in the UK, but is not yet fully established. It is obvious that nobody has yet got to the point of, say, the Democratic Party in the US where there is a very complete database of voters with a multitude of information points on each person. There is no party that has developed a reliable and user-friendly way of tracking voters and managing contact with them. The Democrats, as the advance guard of campaigning, marry this national voter database with sophisticated canvassing tools and huge grassroots operations. The UK parties are not a million miles behind but they do not find it easy to translate intention into action on the ground. As local organisers become more familiar with digital organising techniques this is likely to change quickly.
In fact, the Party HQ versus constituency office view on campaigning and constituency management is very different, and, as a result, very interesting to the outside observer. Party HQ's want to build their own data collection instruments and get constituencies to then do the data collection. The Tories have VoteSource and Labour have Contact Creator. This serves their need for national data in order to drive policy. It is also important that they are seen to be modernising, even if it isn't changing much at local level.
However, at that local level, constituency managers and campaign organisers usually operate their own systems of organising along with the systems sent down from HQ. It is rare though to find a constituency that doesn't still use a mixture of Excel sheets, pen-and-paper and elbow grease to manage voter contact. Bespoke systems of voter contact are very common with ad hoc apps or data science wizardry bolstering their efforts.
Of course, the elephant in the room is that constituencies are hugely suspicious of party HQ and what is seen as their meddling in constituency matters. Added to that, individual candidates and politicians within constituencies are also hugely suspicious of each other, often as they are in direct competition with each other. This leads to campaign management intelligence being siloed and the implementation of a national level system being made all the more difficult.
It seems what is required is a system whereby constituencies are given the control over their local area campaigning while party HQ is still fed the key data points that they need for developing policy. Though HQ's will say that this structure is in place, the noises from the constituencies suggest otherwise. It would be surprising if one of the parties in the UK do not finally grasp digital organising by the scruff of the neck in the coming years. One party showing the way, ala the Democrats in the US, would lead all other parties to go with them if they are not to get left behind.

After entering into an agreement with Motorola, Pacific Wireless Technologies, Inc. will supply a Motorola iDEN(R) integrated digital wireless network in California's Central Valley area. This makes it the third wireless carrier to adopt iDEN technology in the United States and the fifth in North America.
The iDEN technology allows mobile professionals to use a single, palm-size handset to make a digital cellular phone call, send text messages, instantly communicate with one or hundreds of individuals through the two-way radio feature, access information from the Internet, send and receive e-mail, and connect to a notebook or handheld computer to serve as a wireless modem.
"The addition of Pacific Wireless to the marketplace demonstrates the value that integrated digital communications brings to mobile workers who need fast, efficient communication to increase productivity and improve customer satisfaction," says Fred Wright, senior vice president and general manager of Motorola's Customer Solutions Group, North America Region.
Pacific Wireless will offer integrated wireless communications services primarily to those businesses placing an especially high value on dispatch communications along with speed, efficiency, and reliability of communications. Market potential within central California alone is more than seven million subscribers.

The ex-head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog pulled out of the race on Saturday, accusing the country's interim military rulers of failing to create the conditions for a free and fair contest.
"My conscience does not allow me to run for the presidency or any other official position unless there is real democracy," Mr ElBaradei said.
Referring to last year's protests that ousted President Hosni Mubarak, he added that "the captains of the vessel ... are still treading old waters, as if the revolution did not take place."
Mr ElBaradei's decision to withdraw from the contest is yet another blow to the credibility of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, which has been accused of numerous human rights violations since Mr Mubarak stepped down.
But it will also rob the presidential contest of one of its few experienced international figures, adding to fears that Egypt's post-Mubarak political landscape will be dominated by Islamists. The Muslim Brotherhood, which has already gained results of up to 40 per cent in early rounds of parliamentary polls that began in November, is now entertaining hopes of gaining an all-out majority in the final rounds in coming weeks.
Mr ElBaradei praised the revolutionary youths who led the popular uprisings against Mr Mubarak last spring, but said "the former regime did not fall."
And he denounced the "repressive" policies of Egypt's military rulers, whom he said were putting "revolutionaries on trial in military court instead of protecting them and punishing those who killed their friends."
The military government insists that it wants to cede full powers to civilian rule once a president is elected by the end of June. But there is widespread belief among ordinary Egyptains that it will try to maintain a political role in the Egypt's future.
The country saw deadly clashes between democracy protesters and regime forces in October, November and December - scenes that critics say shows the military has much the same authoritarian instincts as Mr Mubarak.
The former president is currently on trial, with state prosecutors calling for him to be hanged for the killing of hundreds of demonstrators in January and February of last year.

(Bloomberg) -- Principal Financial Group Inc. hired Maureen Hays as managing director of consultant relationships as the insurer seeks more business at a unit overseeing $292.4 billion for retirement plans and institutional clients.
Hays will be based in New York in the newly created position and will work with middlemen who advise pension funds, a spokesman for the Des Moines, Iowa-based insurer said today. Hays joins Principal Global Investors from Axa SAs investment managers group, where she was director of consultant relations. She previously worked at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, Principal said in a statement today.
Maureens impressive background, established relationships and years covering leading U.S. consultants make her uniquely qualified to succeed in this role, George Jamgochian, executive director of U.S. distribution at Principal Global Investors, said in the statement.
Chief Executive Officer Larry Zimpleman is expanding asset management in the U.S. and overseas to add fee income at Principal, which also sells life insurance. The company last month hired Josh Rank and Matt Hanson from Aviva Plcs North American investment unit to help run high-yield assets at its fixed-income division.
Axa Investment Managers in May announced that Lawrence Remstedt was appointed director of institutional development and relations. He was previously a portfolio manager at the Axa Rosenberg equities business, the company said in a statement that month.
Axa IM plans to expand its relationships with consultants in the U.S. under the leadership of Ceil Baron, director of consultant relations, the company said in an e-mailed statement. We wish Maureen the best.

RJ wants canvass stand this Christmas. Like me, she has this passion for arts. I wonder what to give Rhonnel. Every time I am asking him what he wants he just answers me "nothing" but it is a mortal sin not to give our loved ones gifts on special occasions so I thought of giving him a cologne or perfume. Fragrances make excellent gifts no matter what the occasion is. A Dunhill or Old Spice is just perfect for him. Classic colognes are perfect for gentlemen like Rhonnel who like the tried and true. These scents have genuine appeal and are timelessly seductive. I am sure he will like either of the two.
But because I am as busy as a bee, I neither have time to go to a mall or browse on the net from one site to another. In times like this, it is good that Shopwiki.co.uk is always on the rescue. They have 3,000 stores so the consumers have a wider choice. You can choose from the variety of colognes, perfumes and their Award Winning fragrance from different designers.
Having second thoughts of giving fragrances as gifts because you don't know if your gift will be a hit or a miss? Well, Shopwiki.co.uk has fragrance buying guide that have plenty of tips to increase the odds that your gift will be a smash hit. Have your early Christmas shopping to avoid the Christmas rush.

Modern C compilers have the smarts built in to make intelligent decisions on what code to emit. In the case of your example of 2 widely spaced cases, it produces this
Which as you can see, gets translated into a test and jump for the extreme case, another test and jump for the default case and a fall through for the 1 case.
If you combine a contiguous range and an extreme case, you get.
Which has been converted into a test cascade something like the original Perl code. However, this is before the optimiser has gone to work on it. Once the optimiser sees that code, it is quite likely that it will revert to using a dispatch table for the continuous cases with a single test for the extreme case. I having having trouble obtaining a post - optimisation disassembly that is readable. I'll try to update with that later.
As you might guess, if your range of cases is a widely spread set of discontiguous cases, then the result is you end up with cascaded tests just like the perl version. However, in almost every case (sic:) I remember using, I found some fairly simple function theat mapped the range to a contiguous or near-contiguous integer range. When this isn't the case, then I use an if/else cascade instead.

A quick look back at the server. A few pics from the party! The full results & comments. The World for you to download. THE OFFICIAL VIDEO! And links to stuff about Skerries Soundwaves Minecraft 2017 online
A quick look back at the server.
Four days of online fun. Lots of people who had been with us before, and also new faces, or should I say skins? Every year is different, but wututui, SoundwavesMiner and 48072 really enjoyed watching this year's community come together and fill the space – starting in the harbour area and on Red Island, but then also spilling into the town itself and to South Strand.
We even have a map of the settlement! See two players admiring it.
Who made it? Sagoskatt did!
Here are just a few snapshots I (Sabine aka SoundwavesMiner) took.
And some pics from the party.
The full results & comments.
The build-off (which you can see in the photographs) was won by Lord3p1k; he was followed by Cookie6784 and TheSweeney20. Congratulations and thanks for playing!
The judging of the full competition, done by Sabine and Ciarán this year, was extremely difficult and took a long time. The builds were all really good, we were very impressed by the amount of thought and skill that went into them. In the end, we tried to pick Skerries winners that were close to what they were copying… (otherwise they'd be Fantasy!) – in the Fantasy section, we liked where imagination & skills were combined to create particularly outstanding builds.
A Thank You to our sponsors!
Storm in a Teacup, our beloved ice cream shop, generously donated 2 x €20 vouchers, and two more €20 vouchers were donated by Blue. Those made the First Prizes for the Skerries competition and the Fantasy competition respectively. The Bubble Room donated a €10 voucher for the first prize for the build-off, and Olive gave us a €10 voucher, which was the 2nd prize in the Fantasy (Junior) competition.
The other prizes (mainly Stormy vouchers) were purchased out of the funds we had available. The party was sponsored by Soundwaves Festival, thank you!
And here is the full result, with all the judges' comments, of the entire competition:

(We'll be adding to this list as we can.) (*Did YOU make a video? Let us have the link and we'll add it here!*)
BenK05 created a video of himself flying around the world & commenting on a number of builds (note: He may have remembered some of the details wrong, so if he mentions you instead of somebody else, please forgive him, there were so many on the server!). If you go to his MooMoo channel, you can also see videos about his own builds. Thanks, BenK05!

House Comittee Discusses Market Place Fairness Act
State officials are making a push for legislative changes regarding the collection of sales and use taxes from online retailers. The discussion focused on the "Market Place Fairness Act" or H.R. bill 3179. This bill would require online retailers with sales over one million dollars annually to pay sales tax in states in the same fashion as brick and mortar retailers. In the U.S. House Judiciary Committee hearing, on July 24th, advocates for the bill reiterated a familiar argument: While brick-and-mortar retailers have to pay sales taxes, online retailers don't — and that's not fair.

Controlling the Environment for Preschoolers

great post! Are you doing one on schoolage children/Brayden's age? Obviously if you don't homeschool them they are leaving you for most of the day and they are exposed to a lot of things without you around. Any specifics in how to prepare for this? Or how to counteract any thing they learn that isn't desirable? One of my concerns is I'm not sure what they will be taught when I'm not there and I don't know the curriculum. I don't mean this to be offensive to anyone who is in the public school system but i've heard from some who are pursuing homeschooling it is because of the liberal doctrines/agenda (basically the unions). Again not anything disparaging as there are so many excellent teachers and I'm not sure if some of this is exaggerated and i'm sure it varies in regions, but what if they are taught/promoted idealogy? I feel education should be apolitical and focus on basics such as reading,math,etc but let's face it, sometimes opinions and/or philosophies are promoted (perhaps subconsciously) and it would be hard for children to know what is ideology vs not. They are young impressionable minds and coming from a person of authority I think they can fall under an influence (and I'm sure many would be good)i'm not sure i am elaborating this well. But I think you know what I mean. So what do you do as a parent? Even if you ask what they learned or look at some materials you don't necessarily know what goes on.

I promise I will love everybody tomorrow.
I've really enjoyed the last few weeks of Idol, with less drama and crazies and more actual singing competition. It might be a bit early to say it, but so far I'm pretty happy with the new take on the old show, and I have high hopes for a good season 13.
OK now, let's see how it all went down. After the two hour show tonight we have the names of 17 of the Top 30 contestants, that will sing in the Live shows for America's phone love and support. Like every year, the judges choose 15 girls and 15 guys, and those are the names we have so far:
Andrina Brogden
Bria Anai
Emily Piriz
Jessica Meuse
Jillian Jensen
Kristen O'Connor
M.K. Nobilette
Malaya Watson
Alex Preston
Dexter Roberts
Emmanuel Zidor
George Lovett
Jordan Brisbane
Malcolm Allen
Maurice Townsend
Sam Woolf
Spencer Lloyd
And we have yet to hear from early favorites such as Majesty Rose, Kenzie Hall and Briana Oakley, who, if we're living in a fair world, will also make it to Top 30.
Some thoughts for tonight:
People need to stop hiding behind "being different". You can be different without using it as an excuse for every misstep along the line, and everything that didn't quite go your way. Being different also doesn't mean people need to give you more credit about the things you do like everybody that's "not different", such as singing. What I'm talking about is contestants MK and Alex, who, for me, wave the "different" flag a little bit too much. Alex seems to rely on that to get noticed, and I personally sense a fake vibe in him, like he's overdoing it just so he appears even more distinctive, and it lacks believability for me. His safety blanket guitar, his face expression… None of that seems real to me. He looks like he's proud of it, though, so a semi enthusiastic yay for being proud of who you are, no matter what others might think.
MK, on the other hand, seems like she's used to people being rude to her because of who she is, and I don't dig the "I'll say it so they don't" thing about her being gay. Unlike Alex, she sounds a little bit defensive about herself, and I don't think she should be. It's a singing competition, and her being gay shouldn't matter. It's worth mentioning that she is the first AI contestant to openly admit she's gay, so it's a somewhat milestone. As for her singing, though, that is the thing that matters, I couldn't quite figure out if that's her style or what, but I had a little trouble concentrating on her performance, because she would always sing a good one second after the instrumental, and that just sounded wrong for me. The judges loved her, the viewers did too, so it might be just me, but I'm not impressed.
I'm not happy about how they're portraying Jessica Meuse so far. She seems to me like a totally nice person, and they kinda make her look like a b-tch. Truth is she tried to work with Lady Puberty who couldn't handle his harmonies, and then she was perfectly polite to Momzilla. I'm sure "you're rude" was the nicest thing she could've had said, I can think of a few other words that I would've used, and they're not as pretty. They apparently wanted to show us how she couldn't tell fellow contestant Jesse that she sounded good last night, but why would she, Jesse didn't sound good. Jesse sounded like she was just waiting for her song to be over, both last night and on the little piece of Solo Round song they showed us. It happens, people lose the spark that kept them going, and maybe that happened to Jesse, I don't know, but she was flat and uninterested. Not to mention she sang her Auditions song, one she should've been perfectly comfortable with, and she simply didn't deliver.
They seem to want us to think Spencer Lloyd is a very good looking guy and total star material, but I don't buy it. His original song was about as original as a pair of $30 Louboutin's, and if it wasn't for TPTB counting on his looks for some votes, he shouldn't have made it to the Top 30.
A thought about the original songs. Lots of songwriters this year… Too much. It just looks like they're all trying to pull an Angie Miller and get to be early favorites like her in season 12. Problem is, they're just not good enough to be songwriters. Stick to singing. So far only Jessica Meuse's original song was actually worth listening to, and she's the only one that didn't give me the "Come on, judges, be impressed that I write my own songs, why did I do it otherwise" vibe. Especially Spencer Lloyd's ridiculous piece, does he even like that thing?
Also we see a lot of contestants that make it just to fill some sort of type the show usually has, like Emmanuel Zidor, who appears to be our new BGG – Black Gospel Guy, it's like a WGWG, but with a lot less guitar and a lot more bow tie. Please, Jennifer, get the guy a nice pair of pumps and send him home. I don't need a new Jacob Lusk/Joshua Ledet…
And a thumbs up for the judges this year, I absolutely love the panel, Keith is a sweetheart and seems to really care about the contestants, Jennifer is just beautiful, and so far we've seen a lot less being silly and a lot more good judgement from her, and Harry, oh, Harry, he's absolutely awesome. I love how he can be both bluntly honest and tell the truth in people's face, and not one bit rude and unpleasant at the same time. We've been mistakenly taking "douche" for "honest" lately, and I really appreciate the change. I haven't enjoyed a judge panel this much before.
Now I'm looking forward for tonight's episode and I hope Kenzie Hall makes it trough. I want to see more of that girl.

|Image: We Heart It.
I thought I would do a little update post as I have been AWOL over the last couple of months.
Juggling work full time, my 6 year old daughter, my partner, our 2 pooches, plus cooking and cleaning of an evening, I can't find any time (or brain energy) to sit down and write a blog post! When I first started my blog in 2012 I used to work of an afternoon/evening, so during the day I had plenty of time to write blog posts and had blog posts up nearly every to every other day plus uploaded videos to my YouTube Channel.
Over the last couple of weeks I have been thinking whether or not to say goodbye to Ohh So Glam and goodbye to the world of blogging. After a lot of thinking I don't think I could quit my blog and never blog again. I love sharing my thoughts on beauty products and also the amazing blogging community that comes with it.
I have decided to carry on with blogging for now and will aim to get at least one post up each week, If I have the time to write more then that's an added bonus!
I would like to thank all of my readers that have still been reading and commenting on my blog even though it lacks any new content, I didn't think I would even get 1 reader when I first started blogging, let alone the amount of people that read it daily from all over the world.
How do you juggle blogging with everyday life? What are your favourite blog posts?

It appears that much of the cuisine is an intuitive affair, based on the state, and available ingredients.
Many human beings are under the deplorable mistake of supposing we live on slimy water and dirty insects – ha, ha, ha! whereas our cuisine is astounding in variety and delicacy of material and flavour.
It seems reliable Asian cuisine is available to us, for a certain price.
You can infuse personality, style, and culture into the cuisine, in other words, really make your wedding a memorable experience for your guests, without creating a full "theme" wedding.
French cuisine went through a major slimming phase nearly 40 years ago—it was called cuisine minceur .
Chinese cuisine is one of the glories of the world, and their meals are well balanced, but in ways that we westerners have no idea.
My education into American regional cuisine is complete.
Moroccan cuisine is far from repulsive although it can get a little repetitive once you have permed every combination of cous-cous and tajine with goat, chicken, fish and vegetables.
They will continue, in other words, to shape the future of this fascinating, complex thing we call cuisine.
I am not a fan of restaurants in the first place; prefer my own cooking anyway, so cuisine is not an issue for me, nor is good wine: Thursday's vintage of Padre Kino is aok, even if it does stain the bottle red.
