Beauty and the Beast Review: Murder in SuburbiaCarissa Pavlica at . Comments
Just as we thought, there will never be a normal life for VinCat.
It's not because they don't have the opportunity for that life, it's because they don't want it. Especially Cat.
On Beauty and the Beast Season 2 Episode 2, they were given new identities by Agent Knox to get out of town for a while and live as Tim and Veronica Vaughn so that he could work on clearing Vincent's name.
Of course, he moved them in right across the street from an unhappily married woman having an affair with a local deputy on the week they planned to murder her husband.
The hour showed some real potential to shake things up for a while with them living in suburbia. With Cat's cover as a mystery writer, she could have done a lot of sleuthing to keep herself occupied while they stayed off the radar and Gabe was convicted.
It was pretty clear that Vincent was ready to let it all go for a while, to kick back and relax. I loved him wandering into the fully stocked kitchen in a robe asking if he could prepare breakfast. We have no idea if they can survive as couple with a normal life and neither do they.
Cat's need for truth, justice and the Manhattan way proved that they may never know the answer to that question. She is not cut out for normal. After years on the run, Vincent would probably sink into it happily. He knows how to turn off the need for speed; Cat, not so much.
If this wasn't a fantasy show, I'd be worried about their future. I still think they should have milked the suburban move for more than one episode, but it is what it is.
We got some clarity about Gabe in this episode. For those who thought Gabe didn't have the power to squash Vincent's federal exoneration, Knox reminded viewers that's who is standing in their way. For anyone who thought it was residual beast genes exploding inside of Gabe that allowed him to kill Jack Watson, Vincent laid that to rest while he sensed the scene. Gabe killed as a man only.
Gabe is completely off the rails. Given his childhood, his stint as a beast and the ridiculous amount of power he seems to have, it isn't surprising. He doesn't take no for an answer and for most of his adult life, he didn't have to -- he could sense things and kill and do it all when it was most convenient for him. Now he's just a dude, and an unlikable one at that.
That Gabe still thinks he's doing all of this for Cat is Crackpot 101 stuff. He's so blinded by his inability to have what he wants that he's lost any potential for rational thinking. My prediction is he will either end up in a straight jacket or dead.
A big shout out to Tess and JT for being absolutely adorable. Tess pushing JT to stop relying on being Robin to Vincent's Batman was a great suggestion. He really doesn't have the faith in himself that he should, considering he kept them both safe for years and Vincent hidden. They are so supportive of one another and they're normal in a way Cat and Vincent never will be.
Bits and Bobs:
- Do any of you pay close enough attention to the news these days to recognize a fugitive? Or would you scream out in public and point at him? What if he tried to shoot you? Plus, he gave them time to flee. Sheesh witness dude.
- Gabe heading to the square to look for the man who spotted Vincent and finding him hours later was kind of ridic.
- Did we know there was a crematorium for all of the dead bodies they've been leaving in their wake all this time? I knew about the sewers, of course, but a catacomb? And why light the area? What if someone stumbled upon it? At first I thought it was common ground, but since Gabe threatened exposure of it... enlighten me Beasties!
- Are those of us who have lived in suburbia really that frightening to city folk?
- LOVED when Cat thought the neighbor was flipping her off. Laugh out loud moment there.
- Vincent rescuing Cat from the crime scene with the excuse that they're off to see the pastor was priceless. It might be fun to have a pastor scene somewhere in this world of theirs!
- Cat deciding if she was going to have to behave like Barbie, then Vin might as well be Ken worked. After all, Barbie has many different career choices these days!
- Considering how casual, comfortable and cute JT and Tess are as a couple, can you believe it took so long for them to discover each other?
- Since they had access to that house, it would have been a perfect time for a VinCat bubble bath. You just know the bathroom was fantastic with a big soaking tub. How could they waste such an incredible opportunity? Just sayin'.
I'm not looking forward to Operation Fake Date because I imagine I will be cringing in embarrassment for Gabe the entire time. Let me know your thoughts on this installment and what you hope happens during the last two episodes of Beauty and the Beast Season 2.
What kind of love do you want to have?

"It's like being on PCP or meth!" the director Breck Eisner explains. "Ex-girlfriend crazy, most of 'em!" says Timothy Olyphant. "It's all dependent on whether your mommy and daddy were nice to you!" his co-star Radha Mitchell decides.
They're talking about the insanity-inducing, homicide-provoking effects of a military-grade bio-weapon that accidentally infects the water supply of a small Iowa town in the remake of George Romero's 1973 horror flick "The Crazies." While they may have different descriptions of what it's like to become a diseased, blood-thirsty killer, during my visit to the set they are all in agreement about one thing: they're not zombies!
"The most challenging thing for us was how do we make these Crazies not look like zombies, yet have a signature look that is dynamic and aggressive and memorable," Eisner ("Sahara") tells me before filming gets underway at a high school in central Georgia's Peach County.
Eisner and visual effects master Robert Hall studied Ebola, tetanus and Stevens-Johnson syndrome victims, consulted with the Centers for Disease Control, then added a healthy dose of horror movie poetic license to achieve a look that is at once realistic and terrifying and totally disgusting. I can attest to all of this first-hand, as I spend the three hours after my chat with Eisner in a makeup chair becoming a Crazy myself for a walk-on role in the movie (the full tale of my makeup ordeal and acting glory will have to wait for another day, as photos of the Crazies are still being kept under lock and key until shortly before the September 25th release date).
As darkness falls, the temperature dips into the bone-chilling range, and I finish off filming my scene, the stars begin stopping by one-by-one to fill me in on a production that is still very much under wraps (turn back now if you want to avoid any and all spoilers).
"We're keeping the conceit of the story that a bunch of people go nuts in a town," Mitchell says. "And we're keeping the idea that can you trust or not trust your government to protect you when things go wrong." But with a bigger budget and better technology, the new "Crazies" is a far cry from the campy, low-budget original.
"I saw what looks like a trailer for 'The Crazies' online," Olyphant tells me with a laugh, "and if that's any indication of what the movie is, I really don't need to see the rest of it."
The night's action takes place at the point in the film where the military takes over the infected town and institutes a martial law quarantine in which residents are rounded up, examined for signs of the disease and split into various bio-containment zones. A massive collection of extras are gathered on a playing field, getting set to stage a breakout from their government captors. Sheriff David Dutton (Olyphant) is separated from his pregnant wife Judy (Mitchell), who is suspected of having the virus. Inside the high school, soldiers in hazmat suits and gas masks keep watch over the infected. Later David and his deputy Russell (Joe Anderson) are going to bust her out of detention and, along with a local high school girl (Danielle Panabaker), will attempt to escape from an increasingly destruction-oriented military occupation.
Because the infection is getting rapidly out of control. A man has burned his entire family alive. The high school principal has attacked his students. And, according to Anderson, the bio-weapon, a Cold War-era creation nicknamed Trixie on its way to be destroyed before a military plane crashes in town, at some point goes from waterborne to airborne. Imagine "Outbreak" meets "28 Days Later" meets a Hollywood disaster flick.
"The infection is terminal," explains Eisner, "on a 48- to 72-hour time frame depending on your immune system. You burn hot, you burn fast, and then you burn out completely."
But before that point, of course, you create some serious blood-soaked havoc. Panabaker, who starred in this year's "Friday the 13th" reboot, says the terror originates from the fast-paced, anything-might-happen nature of the film.
"With Jason you know what you're running from," she says. "You're running from a big guy who's out to kill you. With a disease like the Crazies, you don't really know what's coming. There's the huge fear of the unknown."
What do think about another remake of a Romero film? Which of the upcoming horror flicks--"The Crazies," "Drag Me to Hell," "The Wolf Man" or others--gets you most excited?

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) --Winter storms bring with them an ugly side effect like debris at the beach.
Piles of small plastic pieces and Styrofoam have littered San Francisco's Ocean Beach after being churned up by big waves and clean-up efforts can't keep up. "The most disconcerting thing are the little pieces of Styrofoam," San Francisco resident Miriam Smith said.
There are small pieces of Styrofoam in large amounts. And it's not just Styrofoam, but pieces of plastic have washed up on the beach as well. "It's in the ocean and being deposited. This isn't something that people are bringing to the beach and leaving behind," U.S. National Recreation Area spokesperson Alexandra Picavet said.
It actually happens year round, but it's worse now because of the rough weather. "We also at the same time had king tides and very big storms, so what was happening is the debris that normally gets deposited along the water's edge was being carried further up the beach," Picavet said.
Regulars at the beach are discouraged. "As citizens, we're using too many plastic things for our lifestyles and if we'd cut down on that, maybe there'd be less on the beaches," Rena Aiken said.
Clean-up can be a vicious cycle with the tide bringing in the trash and taking it away.
Aiken and her neighbors try to pitch in. "You just keep collecting as you go and hang out and collect and collect, but it's always there the next day," she said.
The U.S. National Recreation Area spokeswoman said any help is appreciated, but winter weather also means dangerous sneaker waves so safety should always come first. "There are storms that we're not seeing here, but they affect our beaches so be really careful. Never turn your back on the water," Picavet said.
A large beach clean-up effort is scheduled for Martin Luther King Day on Monday.

Vehicle customization information | Photos | & More.
For car enthusiasts there is nothing like driving a rare automobile, like a 65 shelby, a Lamborghini Aventador, or anything that has less than 1,000 units in production. Not everyone has the luxury of driving an original, and many people don't even have the pleasure of seeing an original (thankfully we have pictures and videos). And if one owns one of these rare vehicles, it's not likely it will be their everyday vehicle.
So we like the idea of a clone, a vehicle mocked up to resemble an original. One that looks authentic, but something you are not afraid to put miles on. It's something that you can enjoy to drive everyday without fretting over the life and value of the car. There is a growing amount of people who are interested in creating clones aside from us and our mockup that we created in the past. From time-to-time we come across other enthusiasts who clone a popular classic (whats new), and we hope to share as many of our findings with you here at gt350clone.com.

Brisbane Roar veteran Jade North has hailed his central defensive partner Daniel Bowles as one of the form stoppers in the A-League.
North and Bowles have formed a rock-solid combination over the opening weeks of the new season, with the Roar having conceded just one goal in their last four games.
"He's come on in leaps and bounds and deserves a lot of credit at the moment," North said.

The Rut's Lone PeakLone Peak. Sky Runners run to the TOP of the mountain, not around it. RESPECT. I signed up for The Rut because it's just the popular thing to do when you are married to Randy Shoemaker.
This 12k must to be one of the toughest in the USA. I'm not kidding.
My "report" is more of an EXPERIENCE. Take what you want from it - I had a BLAST despite the sick fear I stashed away knowing my knees might give out on me as they had in the recent past.
A little (and important) history:
I was really worried I would not finish and then put myself back even further from the recovery I was trying to "complete".
We uncovered, purely by accident, the powerful benefits of aqua running.
Starting in March I was on a decent running program directed by Randy. I was dedicated and compliant and preparing to finish this Rut Race strong. Between boot camp sessions and work I put more and more miles in (trail and road).
Over the months I tracked the pain in my knees. I figured it was "normal" to experience. How would I know otherwise? I'd never actually stuck to a running plan like I had this one.
The pain radiated and eventually I could barely stand. It was both knees so we knew it wasn't from an accident or injury. My running "form" was checked (and I passed), my shoes were changed (I now own 4 pair of Hoka One One's and 4 Asics Kayano). I found some amazing running pants by a virtually unknown company Lole so I got 4 pair of those babies. Of course a girl cannot have enough good support for "the girls" so I bought some CWX Running Bra's while visiting our daughter Claire at a T9 Store in Bezerkely. For those of you that don't know me: TO PUT THIS MUCH OF OUR HARD EARNED $$ INTO MYSELF IS UNHEARD OF.
Finally, I was told in July by my doctor - "YOU CANNOT RUN". He even added "OR WALK". The time frame was indefinite. The reason was after months of unexplained pain in both my knees we decided I had overdone it. It would radiate, I'd wear braces, I'd stop running...it would go away...I'd get back out and run...pain returned...wore braces...less pain...it was NUTS. Growing up I played sports and got injured a million times. I never EVER followed sensible advice on healing and therapy. Now I pay. Dang it.
I got massage from Cheryl, followed the regular chiropractic with Sommers. got the pre-adjustment therapy...I did EVERYTHING! It was so frustrating.
My JOB requires I run! I have ignored every utterance of these advices for so long that now it was a stone cold fact: I'm out.
My training was "reduced" to Aqua Running 5 weeks before the race. It was hard at first but the resistance training without the impact meant my knees were NOT hurting and could repair! My cardio was worked hard (as hard as I wanted). Randy was a mean coach some days and shush'ed me a lot. One bonus to Aqua Running...you can do it with your eyes closed!
Pre Race with Leonard!Ahhh..it was cold. I WAY overdressed for most of the race (it did get a little chilly later but next time...way less on the layering!)
Now for my "Race Report"
A few hiccups at the start...Like we thought the race started at 9am...and realized it at 7:50am THAT IT STARTS AT 8:00am! Banged on Dustin and Donna's door springing them out of bed. Thankfully Donna and I were in the 3rd wave but Dustin was in Wave 2 starting at 8:05. He made it!
So there's that.
Made it in the nick of time to the start line where I was met by Leonard and Shelley with giant smiles. That calmed me down. Leonard was a very cool cucumber and Shelley was bubbling and excited. I was freezing plus my stomach in knots from the "almost late" saga.
I hopped up and down trying to get warm and went to the BACK of the pack. I was the last one across the start line from what I could remember.
The RD said that wave 3 was the "fun wave". Donna WASNT THERE WHEN THE STARTING MOOSE SOUNDS WENT OFF! I kept looking for her panicking that she wasn't there. The race first begins in the Resort then curls around our building so I peered up at our window...she wasn't there. I was hoping she was just ahead of me...kept going.
The Rut Dustin - Start of Wave 1Made it to send Dustin off into the mountains for his very first EVER trail run! That awful sound is supposed to be a boy moose calling for a girl moose (it's mating season aka The Rut). We were running up up up the. Suddenly everyone slowed. It was a single track entry and everyone was being polite. One by one we stacked in tightly. I thought, "oh no...this might get tough. I could slow so done down or someone could hang me up." I was surprisingly running up the hill. RUNNING! That's not normal but I couldn't find a reason to stop, my lungs and heart were fine...my knees...fine...it was only a mile but a mile UP.
Now everything slowed way down. Ugh. I didn't want to be rude but I wanted to move a little faster. So I politely asked to pass. One things for sure here in Montana: nice people. So I slipped by a few people and slowed Dow. Because I had zero idea of what was in front of me. I mean I knew mountains and a serious climb according to the graphic posted on the Rut website so I didn't want to poop out too soon.
All the sudden I hear, "on your right" and turned to see Donna! I was so happy!!! She had to have run all the way to me! Let me tell you, that had to have been TOUGH. She passed me and kept going! The climb continued. I felt pretty good still.
Without getting into a "boring" explanation of the course...BECAUSE IT IS BASICALLY UP FOR 5 miles with a few 50 yard (less up) switch backs tucked in there and maybe 3 different downs lasting about 40 yards max.
Being polite...We jammed up almost immediately at this crossing. When they say "single track" it really means that here. Since it was single track almost the entire way you hop ahead and behind folks. In my head I began trying to remember if I'd made any progress ahead of anyone...that's about when I got to this hairpin turn that somehow went up even steeper! What the hell?! I really thought we had to be close to the top. I SAW AN ANTENNAE! Nope!
This section would be comparable to...the Tapo Open Space T has a goat trail that leads up to the ridge on the eastern side...do you know it? We really only go down it and when we do we have to descend you've got to do it on your butt part of the way to avoid tumbling head over heels. Well we went UP that for about a mile...I had to stop and catch my breathe at this point. I stupidly scooted to the right, which is dumb because I was dizzy and that side had a cliff so if I'd passed out I would have been a statistic.
I let a dozen people pass me. DANG IT!
Running UP a ski area. The widest part of the run. No one passed anyone because it was so dang steep! Back at it...got to the top when I heard cheering and whooping! Yes, the top!! No...not the top. Just a very cool and enthusiastic photographer that had placed signs telling us to look up and smile! I loved that. She was so upbeat and she was also the first person outside of a runner that I'd seen. She was hauling a lot of equipment so I guessed we must be close to the top...and we were.
First we had to get up this wide open shale like section. Crumbly rocks and a steep grade but at lease walkable. This is where I decided to try and pass a few people. I did! They were standing still taking photos BUT IT COUNTS! Hee hee
I saw the antennae again and heard music. WE WERE AT MILE 5 already! Yipeeeee!! In my head I was surprised that I felt good still. I had no water or fuel and the aid station had electrolytes and water...AND A DOG. I had to take a few minutes loving and petting this beautiful dog (got ok from his mom). The. I sheepishly asked if it would be ok if I left my extra shirt and coat to have them bring it back. I stripped while I ran all the way down to my sports bra In the. Idle of the trail (those that know me know this is a miracle. I was sweating bullets though and needed relief). She was super nice and said...no. Adding I only had 2 miles left and I could do it. PLUS it was downhill.
After thanking them for the music, refreshments and helping I headed down the trail. It was a fire road and easy to navigate. My knees were ok. We were on the west side of the mountain and it was 10:15 still cold. I was glad I didn't get rid of my apparel and while running I put it back on.
Green beautiful planet.There were roads all around and we ran on them a little bit.
Down the fire road maybe half a mile I hear a guitar playing some awesome country song. I listened and picked up my pace, which I'd estimate was a 185 maybe 175 bpm. Yay!! This guy rocked!! It was seriously cold and his fingers must have been frozen but he was playing and smiling and singing...just fantastic!! I realized in my happiness that I hadn't noticed where the runners in front of me had gone.
Then I saw it...ummm...an opening in the side to drop down STEEP. "Careful! " yelled the volunteer that was directing. I thought, "wha?? Careful of what?" That's about when I reached out with my loooong arms and grabbed into the tree trunk to balance my way down...Straightish... I started to slip a bit. Got my footing and took another step. I looked down the path to the other runners I. Front of me. It was a standstill. Traffic had clogged up at this spot and I saw another jam ahead. Crap, need to get around those folks but how am I supposed to get down this 12 foot drop? Then I saw it, a rope!!! A rope!!!!!! I grabbed it and then, with all of the danger rappelling experience (read: I have zero experience I. Rappelling but 46 years of avoiding danger) I went FACE FIRST down. It was so easy! I couldn't wait for the next rope. But the people were staking up to get down. Bummer. Had to wait. But when it was my turn I zoomed again face first...wooohoooo!!!
There were 4 ropes going down total. I was shocked I wasn't scared.
There were iced mud and slippery sections on this portion. I almost fell once (that's it!) and tweaked my knee. Dang it!! We had a little over a mile left, I thought.
Things flattened out and we crossed a foot bridge. There was a really awesome guy yelling at me (cheering me) that this was the hill I run. Get a move on it, run it to the top. I looked up and sized it up. I'd compare it technically to the grade at Tapo Open Space from the bottom of the path to the T. Ok I'll try. He was standing on the single track trail on the edge encouraging me...and when I got to him he gave me a pat on the back and said, "you can do it" I began slugging up what I was pretty sure he called THE LAST HILL. if it was the last one, and I'd survived this far, I knew I could definitely do it.
Ahhh made it and took 40 yards to catch my breath then got moving again. I met another runner, my "ShoeTwinsie" (we were wearing matching Asics Nimbus) and she was scooting along at a great pace...well, one I could try to keep up with. I began running behind her 20 feet. Then another incline!! Nooooooo!!
I quickly checked my watch (because looking up and away from the trail could mean I'd be falling into the stream we were running next to) and kept my mind busy trying to calculate how much more I had to go. I knew it was under a mile so I pushed a little harder.
Sarita finishing The 12K RutI was really pushing hard to finish...my knees and feet were wobbly. I was all alone on the single track zig-zagging toward the edge of the trees. The sun was hotter now but I could hear the cheer of the crowd and the announcers.
The girl in front of me was GONE. Once I hit the edge of the trees I saw I had about 100 yards of funky, uneven mashed up dirt path to go. A guy yelled at me " this is where you sprint!!!!" so I picked up my pace (at least that's what my legs, heart and lungs felt like anyway).
I saw Dustin cheering me at the final corner and that made me more determined. My legs felt heavy!
Then I heard it - "Sarita Shumacher from Simmy Valley". YAY!!
That's a WRAP.
In hindsight I spent 5 weeks NOT RUNNING AT ALL, barely walking, ON PLANET EARTH.
I did do aqua running for 6 weeks and it helped. I also got to Big Sky with enough time to get through elevation pains. I did feel that in the first 48 hours, slightly. Mostly when we were hiking the top of Lone Peak.
After I crossed the finish line I went to the water tent and got a glass of water.
Then I saw Donna running in! YAY!!! We all finished one of the toughest trail runs on earth.
I've run the trails around Simi, I ran a few Xterra races…I've run a lot of places.
Randy on the way UP to Lone Peak.We went to the TOP of Lone Peak the day we arrived to work on acclimating and hopefully avoid any elevation problems.
The Rut is by far the best scenery, highest elevation, most frightening (those ropes!), tightest single track I've ever personally experienced. AND I LOVED EVERY INCH OF IT!
I wish we had a medal for it. I'm making my own.
Despite a lot of waiting for people (due to the single track issue) I think I did pretty good. I had next to zero pain - a little knee stiffness.
I'm going to return for sure - it was just too amazing. I'll be prepared better, that's for sure.
MORE OF MY ADVENTURE pre and post race
We arrived in Montana 5 days earlier than the race with the purpose of wisely acclimating to the elevation. Simi Valley's Rocky Peak (the highest elevation I think) is about 2,700.
Big Sky Montana (the START LINE of The Rut) yawns at this fact. They eat Rocky Peak for breakfast. 7,500 feet.
The weather was HOT. 95 degrees at the Bozeman airport! We got our stinky red rental POS, STUFFED our stuff in and headed to the only grocery store we knew of to get supplies to eat at the condo we were staying in.
The car LOOKED like a cat or dog exploded with hair all over the back seat, the smell was something like stale fast food with buckets of "febreeze". I didn't complain, I was so happy to be on our way!
After grocery shopping we headed out. The smell, I'm sure with the heat, was suffocating. We called the Rental Place (Hertz) and they were SO COOL letting us switch the car out. We were going to kick around Montana then drive to visit Morgan in Rexburg at BYU Idaho then to Salt Lake City and fly home. We got a Toyota mini-van. It didn't smell. There was plenty of space.
The drive to Big Sky is unreal. The temps reduced and by the time we rolled into the condo parking lot we were between 70-80 degrees. Perfect weather, perfect timing and the condo was off the dial amazing. Ahhhh...vacation!!!
For the record, my official starting ritual for vacation is to have a donut. I had one the morning we left to Montana thanks to Morgan!

Normally, there is often a discussion about the most beautiful women in each country. Indeed, beautiful women is often the topic, and it is naturally with a lot of interest. Mostly, the most beautiful women selected are from the most famous actresses. For sure, being attractively and uniquely beautiful is a main criteria to get famous in anywhere around the world. For now, we will check out who the most beautiful women are in Chinese. You are going to see the queen of beauty below.
1. Liu Yifei
Incredibly adorable, Liu Yifei is surely one of the most beautiful women in Chinese and around the world. This actress is simply very attractive with her face shape and her crushful smile. Additionally, she is such a talent woman. She was born in Chinese, went out to study and live in the US and bravely come back to China to find her dream career, and finally, it comes true.
2. Fan Bingbing
Undeniably, Fan Bingbing is so naturally beautiful. Her smile, her face shape, her everything is almost perfect as a woman. Even more, she is incredibly talented. She is an actress, a singer, and a TV producer, just to name a few. Of course, pure beauty could not help her to reach such an amazing success in the entertainment world of tough competition in China. But she did it, and she is simply amazing for that.
3. Zhang Yuqi
Within China, Zhan Yuqui is another queen of beauty. None can deny this fact. Zhang was born in 1986, and she is a famous actress in China. In addition to her so attractive look, she is naturally an actress. The way she acts is different from others while it gets to the story perfectly. No question for that, or she could not become this successful.
4. Chen Hao
The fourth is this woman with a beautiful smile on her face, and She is Chen Hao. Chen Hao was born in 1979, and her beauty makes her so much of the recognition in addition to her acting talent. Even people out of China are very likely to know her as she has stared in many productions that become famous worldwide such as the Three Kingdom which she stars as the beautiful wife Coa Coa could not win her heart.
5. Angelbaby
It is said that a picture worth a thousand word. I look at the picture of Angelbaby above, and there is only one world which is "Incredibly Beautiful". This natural beauty of Angelbaby makes her of one the most attractive women in China and the actress world. And, just like the rest of the women in here, she is high on her acting talent.

We have one of those big coffee table art books at home. Its colored pages show vases, statues, and pictures through the ages. If you are at all interested in horses, you immediately see that they have been a favorite subject of artists for thousands of years. This isn't too surprising since the horse has played such an important part in man's history. What is striking to me is how the horses looked, were tacked up, and handled through the centuries.
My favorite is a photograph of what many consider the finest equestrian statue ever cast. It is "Colleoni" by the sculptor Verrocchio, and was standing in Venice, Italy before Columbus discovered America. It depicts an imposing military commander on his incredible horse ready to leap into battle. The rider makes the Marlboro man look like a sissy out for a Sunday ride. Someday I'd like to see it for real, but googling the sculptor and the statue will give you some appreciation of how timeless solid conformation is.
One of the points to be made through this study of horses in art is that superior horsemanship didn't start just a few years ago. We know by the record that horses have been appreciated and used by our ancestors as far back as cave drawings can take us. Breeds have come and gone depending on fashion and use, but the really good blood from thousands of years of selection is seen in our animals of today.
We are at the receiving end of this long tradition of the partnership of mankind and horse. You are the present holder of a body of information that has come the distance. Your horse knowledge has for the most part been passed down orally. You didn't learn how to muck out a stall from a book. No manual told you how to gently place a bit in a horse's mouth or how to pick up a foot. Someone showed you and me, and someone showed the one who taught us. Ever once in a while there is a brand new idea. If it's good, it survives. For example, within the past 20 years round pen training has gone from an oddity to a well established training technique that will probably last. If something new is just flashy, it dies, just like all styles do. Think of all the new horse shoes that hit the market each year, most of which don't last.
Our horse knowledge has been passed down orally in every language known to man. Some of those languages have died out, but good horsemanship stands the test of time. There are many good books, lots of articles, and a wealth of information on the web. These sources are helpful to both experienced and new horse owners. However, if all the written material were burned tomorrow it wouldn't matter much. The knowledge would pass down just as it always has. However, there are also some disadvantages to oral tradition. Misinformation is also passed down. Some old wives tales will never die because they seem to make sense.
I used to work on Maine's Standardbred race tracks. One of the things that always bothered me is that many trainers in this sport like their horses with long toes and low heels. I'm talking about significantly long toes and very dropped heels. When I would ask why they would have their horses trimmed and shod this way, I got one of two responses. "A long toe makes the horse's stride longer", or "That's the way we've always done it (tradition)."
The longer stride could be argued, but the opposing argument is that a horse can't push off properly with low heels. I used to argue that shoeing this way causes misalignment of the pastern bones, and eventual lameness in the upper joints. I would ask the trainers how their legs would feel if they tried to run in long-toed clown shoes with the heels right on the ground. "Don't know, but this is how my dad always had his horses shod." I finally learned that arguing with tradition is an uphill fight and most of the time you can't win.
So, appreciate those who have gone before, both your ancestors and their horses, and be willing to part with tradition when good common sense tells you to.

Larisa Sadilova: Sonny - Сынок (2009)
Color, 96 minutes
Director: Larisa Sadilova
Script: Larisa Sadilova
Cinematography: Dmitri Mishin
Cast: Viktor Sukhorukov, Oleg Frolenkov, Oleg Bokhan, Evgeniia Simonova, Kseniia Surkova, Iurii Kiselev, Aleksandr Isaev
Producer: Rustem Akhadov
Production Company: Arsi Film Production
Sonny played at the 2009 Kinotavr film festival, garnered the editors' choice award as well as best actor award for Sukhorukov at the 2009 Moscow Premiere film festival, and the prize for best scenario at the 2009 "Golden Phoenix" festival in Smolensk.
Reviewed by Jasmijn Van Gorp © 2010 in KinoKultura
In 2003 we witnessed a series of highly acclaimed Russian films exploring father-son relationships. The sons in Zviagintsev's The Return (Vozvrashchenie) are desparately looking for any affection from their father, to no avail. In Khlebnikov and Popogrebskii's Koktebel, father and son leave town for the provinces, trying to build a new life after the mother 's death. On the road, they get to know each other better. In the third film, Sokurov's Father and Son (Otets i syn), an absent mother leads to overly affective, quasi-homo erotic behavior on the part of the father towards his adolescent son. While Sadilova's new film Sonny also tackles a dysfunctional father-son relationship, it ultimately takes a different stance. While the 2003 films are about the struggle with an authoritative father, Sonny deals primarily with an absent mother. ...

People who address Macon City Council generally will get three minutes to speak instead of five under changes the council OK'd Tuesday evening.
The changes passed easily after several failed attempts to overhaul the rules governing the public comment section of the council's twice-monthly meetings. It failed to pass last month largely because several supporters were in France on a trip to one of Macon's sister cities.
The measure passed 12-2 on Tuesday, with Councilman Virgil Watkins and Council President Miriam Paris voting against it. Councilman Erick Erickson, the 15th member, was out of town.
If a speaker needs more than three minutes, a majority of the council can vote to give them more time.
Some members supported a change requiring that speakers stick to talking about items on the night's agenda, but that change did not pass.

The Elusive Bucktor!
Bucktor Bucktor is an elusive tor! Looking for it afforded me much time to catch my breath on a beautiful circular walk that takes in the meeting of the River Tavy and the River Walkham at Double Waters. It seems I have walked past it many times not even knowing of its existence, it is not listed in lots of 'tor' guides but Terry Bound sites it so the other day I made it a mission to find it.
One reason I have not noticed it before is because it does not stand proud of the land but nestles into the hillside snugly tucked in by lots of greenery! If you follow the path along the river from Grenofen towards Double Waters, Bucktor can be found on the right hand side just before you get to some houses. It is rather unhelpfully named 'Buckator' on the OS map!
Anyway, I hope my mission was successful. If anyone can confirm for me whether this picture shows Bucktor or not I would be really greatful. If it is not I will get my walking boots and deer stalker on and go sleuthing once more!

Fans of tragic actor Paul Walker gathered at the site of his death crash on Sunday (30Nov14) to pay their respects to the Fast & Furious star on the anniversary of his passing.
Walker lost his life when a Porsche he was a passenger in crashed into a pole in Valencia, California a year ago.
Hundreds of fans ignored heavy rain to gather at the site and leave flowers and photos of their hero.
Walker's Fast & Furious co-stars Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson and members of his family were among those to offer up tributes through social media and news outlets on Sunday, including Vin Diesel, who posted a touching photo of his daughter, Hania Riley, sitting on Walker's lap on the set of one of the hit films.
Diesel wrote, "He was a part of so much in my life... long personal talks with my mother or babysitting the Alpha Angel (Diesel's daughter)... he took a certain pride in being uncle Pablo... after all, we were filming a scene in FF4 (Fast & Furious) the day she was born, and he being the only one I told, encouraged me to go in and cut the umbilicle cord.
"He was an important part of my transition into fatherhood... that healthy family member, with the most positive outlook on life...
"A year ago today... a year of mourning... and his absence still leaves me speechless. We miss you Pablo..."

Outstanding Quality
Through reliable service partners, the NFON data centre has several connections to the traditional telephone network. This mix of classic 'tried and tested' and modern operations provides first class voice quality that has been regularly certified by TÜV (Germany's official testing and certification organisation) for years. Security is as important to us as it is to you, so we offer an encryption option for telephony made from within the local system (if your user devices support encryption). This way, your calls over the public Internet are almost eavesdropping-proof.
Not only have we convinced the TÜV, but the media, too. In an extensive test of telephone systems the respected German magazine 'Connect' rated our speech quality as "excellent" (Connect 05/2014).
The technology behind the NFON Cloud Telephone Systemis also called Hosted PBX or IP Centrex. The concept is simple: The NFON telephone system is not installed locally in your company, but operates in several highly secure external NFON data centres, which are reached by VoIP technology (Voice over Internet Protocol) via the Internet. This way, you are always reliably available for your customers and business partners. Relocations and expansions are very easy. In addition, you save the cost and space of an on-site telephone system. VoIP desk phones, DECT VoIP phones or VoIP softphones can be used. A key advantage is that hardware phones can also be used with other VoIP telephone systems, so the investment is not lost when switching providers.
Plug & Play
Use your cloud telephone system worldwide, regardless of location: Access is easy by phone or over the Internet by smartphone, laptop or computer. Everything is easy to set up and maintain, even on the PC. You no longer require the services of a technician and thanks to Plug & Play you can start calling instantly.
Free Updates
Save yourself the cost of hardware, which quickly becomes obsolete: With the NFON Cloud Telephone System you are always automatically up to date and the table-top phones can be used with many other VoIP telephone systems (Investment protection). Our lifetime updates are included free of charge. You pay only for what you use. With NFON you can save up to 50 percent of the cost of a traditional telephone system. In addition, you make internal calls for free – worldwide, between all locations.
World Wide Calls
With the cloud telephone system from NFON calls are cheap and reliable. All around the world. Instead of using conventional telephone lines, NFON calls are made via the Internet. For this, highly efficient and reliable hardware is required. However, with the NFON Cloud Telephone System, this equipment is not located in your company, but in several high-performance computing centres that are virtually fail-safe through fully redundant operation.

4 Depending on your package.
- All prices subject to VAT. Applicable to both versions (Enterprise and Premium): Reporting and correction of any errors in the NFON Cloud telephone system, for which NFON is responsible, is free. Cost of individual telephone support for programming, configuration and queries related operation, as well as support for errors not caused by NFON, are determined at close of contract. This support is offered at a fee. You will also have the option to purchase a Convenience Setup for configuring the system, which includes support services such as set-up support, etc.
The NFON Cloud Telephone System uses the Internet to make and receive calls. You can access the telephony features anywhere you have an Internet connection: from the office, another site, the home office or on the road using the smartphone or laptop. With NFON you eliminate the telephone system hardware, the telephone connection and the maintainer.
The system is flexible, scalable and simple to administer. There are no long term contracts and it has a low set up cost in comparison to traditional PBX systems.
What technology does the NFON Cloud Telephone System use?
The base technology is called hosted PBX, often called IP Centrex. Both refer to the same concept: the telephone system is not installed at the company site but at an external data center, and can be accessed anywhere using the Internet. The NFON Cloud Telephone System is also outsourced to a highly secure and powerful data center and can be accessed anywhere using VoIP technology (Voice over Internet Protocol).
How secure is the NFON Cloud Telephone System?
The telephone system is operated over the Internet. The system itself is located at the NFON data center – it has a resilient set up fail-over at geographically separated servers. All servcies are guaranteed and TÜV certified.
How much is the NFON Cloud Telephone System?
With the NFON Cloud Telephone System you eliminate expensive telephone system hardware: your telecommunication system comes right from the internet. All the features and functions you need are subscription based and accessed over the Internet. This eliminates the telephony system hardware, installation and ongoing maintenance costs. You pay for the number of extensions you need. There are some features which require an additional subscription in order to activate the advanced features.
Can I intergrate my PC with the telephone system – what's CTI?
With Computer Telephony Integration, or CTI, you can make or receive calls using your PC. Advantages of this allow you to also see all the information from the customer database on your screen. Whether you're at the office, at the home office or on the road using your laptop.
Can I use my smartphone as an extension – what's FMC?
With fixed mobile convergence, or FMC, you link your mobile to the NFON Cloud Telephone System: your mobile becomes a full-fledged extension. You lose no functionality of your profile when using your FMC device as opposed to your desk phone. And you can easily phone on the road using your office number – throughout your country.
Can analogue devices be connected to the NFON Cloud Telephone System?
Analogue devices can easily be connected to the NFON Cloud Telephone System using an analogue telephone adapter (ATA). Whether IP phone, mobile, softphone, DECT phone or conference phones – NFON is compatible with numerous devices. And thanks to Plug & Play you only need to connect your devices to immediately start using over 160 functions offered by your NFON Cloud Telephone System.
Do I need an SDSL connection for the NFON Cloud Telephone System?
Symmetric DSL, unlike ADSL, uses the same speed in both directions. So it's perfect to send large data packets to the net or make many calls at once. NFON Cloud Telephone System is best used with SDSL, but ADSL is also an option. It's generally a question of having sufficient bandwidth in relation to the number of extensions or concurrent calls that is required on site.
Can the Patton caller ring be changed from EU?
Check the language settings on the portal for this Patton. If these do not trigger the correct tones;
Using the Patton webpage interface:
User : 1328admin PW: 73132837 or K-number without K
It is possible to make country specific settings on the interface of the Patton.
Alternatively you can log onto the Patton via telnet an do the specific settings on the command shell: www.patton.com/manuals/SCG-r64.pdf
See page 595.
Can we Customise the email template for the Voicemail notification?
This is not possible.
Is there a way to disable the voicemail access from a phone if the Customer is not using it?
Unfortunately this is not possible. The button remains active even if voicemail is turned off.
How long do we keep the voicemail's stored on the server if not deleted?
The voicemails would remain until limit has been used up (100 VM limit), what should happen is that once they reach the limit, the oldest one would be removed and the newest one should enter.
Can an extension have call waiting activated to know a callee is ringing in?
Queues and Groups do not allow call waiting feature to be active.
Call waiting will only work when you receive a call direct on your DDI or extension number.
What happens to the call when all phones are busy in a Queue?
Depending on the configuration, the call can be held in a queue (set with appropriate MOH and recordings) or you can set the call to go to different destination after a time out delay.
In a Group configuration you can using the 'group pick up' feature if you are available to take the call. In this scenario you can have a timeout delay to go to a destination of your choice
Why does call waiting not work when an extension is in a Queue or Group?
The Group and Queue configuration takes precedence over any extension members' configuration.

Workshop on Data Mining for Oil & Gas
The inaugural workshop on Data Mining for Oil & Gas (DM4OG 2017) joins the prestigious 2017 SIAM International Conference on Data Mining. The conference will be held at the Westin Galleria Houston, in Texas (USA), from April 27 to 29, 2017.
The process of exploring and exploiting Oil and Gas (O&G) generates a lot of data that can bring more efficiency to the industry. The opportunities for using data mining techniques in the "digital oil-field" remain largely unexplored or uncharted. Thus, the DM4OG Workshop aims to provide a quality forum for researchers that work on the significant challenges arising from the synergy between data science, machine learning, and the modelling and optimization problems in the O&G industry.

Money. Sometimes it sounds like a dirty word. Evidence of its corruptive influence abounds. Yet anyone who's ever tried to start a business or pursue a creative endeavor knows you can't get very far without it.
In today's recession-era economy it seems harder and harder to come by. Despite the albeit sluggish economic recovery, credit markets remain tight, investors skiddish. Those seeking the necessary cash to fund their aspirations are turning to the latest internet-based tools pioneered by the world's most innovative minds.
You've no doubt heard the term "crowdfunding" with increasing frequency. It's becoming a popular way to raise funds for a multitude of endeavors including everything from non-profit start-ups to blogging and journalism to creative media such as music and film production and tours. It allows everyday people to contribute to a wide array of economic generators; it has awakened average citizens to the realization that when we band together and pool our resources we can be a force for positive change. And by harnessing the power of the internet and social media, we can do it without ever leaving the comfort of home.
I've worked in various aspects of film and television for over a decade now and in that time have had the privilege of meeting and working with incredibly talented individuals. As I slowly join the bandwagon of those harnessing the potential of modern technology, I have been able to reconnect with many of them and am beginning to see a powerful network of bright, creative minds unfold.
One of those is my friend and former colleague, Kristi Frazier. I've always marveled at Kristi's strength and fortitude. Having myself emerged from a near Beaver-Cleaver childhood, Kristi's life has been defined by a distinct lack of conventionality in comparison, with no shortage of struggle and challenge. Yet it's precisely those challenges that have molded her into such a resourceful, resilient and unabashedly self-deprecating woman. Rather than letting them bring her down, she has allowed her life experiences to feed her creativity, humor and fun-loving spirit.
I'm confident she brings all that and more to the table in her newest project, a trilogy of screenplays called THE FIFI CHRONICLES. Together with her creative partner and long-time friend, Beth Brown, she brings an unconventional and unlikely heroine to life in a hilarious and raucous way.
Help bring FIFI to the big screen! Visit the FIFI CHRONICLE's Kickstarter page and find out what you can do to help talented new grid creatives Kristi and Beth realize their dream!

Dear Readers,
It has been a long, challenging, and exciting year, and the holiday season is finally upon us. I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for all of your support and encouragement — for your giving my Mill River books a chance, for recommending them to your families, friends, and book clubs, and for reaching out to me through email and social media to let me know you've loved them. There are many joys in being an author, but for me, one of the greatest is knowing that something I've written has brought enjoyment and happiness to someone else.
In that spirit, I wanted to give you a special gift in return. I have posted a Mill River Christmas story down below, which you may download (or print) for free. Several formats are offered — for Kindle users, Nook users, and anyone wanting to print it or read it on an iPad or computer.
In the short story, entitled "The Tree of Hope", you will encounter some characters from The Mill River Redemption and The Promise of Home as they prepare to celebrate Christmas. I hope that you find it heartwarming and humorous. It is also my hope that the story provides you a brief respite from the depressing and frustrating headlines that have recently dominated the news and from any difficulties and hardships in your own lives. I find that reading does all of those things for me. Writing does, too, particularly when the story takes me back to Mill River.
Many of you have asked whether there will be a fourth Mill River book. The answer to that question is "I think so." In fact, "The Tree of Hope" takes place immediately after Promise ends and right before I envision another book beginning. I have developed a synopsis for a fourth book, but I don't yet know when it will be available. I intend to start writing it in the New Year, and I'll post updates on my website and Facebook author page as I have them.
Again, thank you for reading my books and helping me to continue to do this job I love. Merry Christmas to all of you, and may your New Year be filled with blessings and happiness!
Best wishes,
The Promise of Home
