I completely agree with you with Legally Blonde. I love that movie. I do love Little Women but I love the film equally as much as the book. Great list.ReplyDelete
Legally Blonde is a book? You learn every day. I loved Scott Pilgrim movie but I haven't read the comics yet. As for the rest, haven't read them at all. Yikes. :DReplyDelete

I'm horrible - I haven't read any of these except Jumanji (I agree, the movie was better...shh... don't tell). :) I had the same problem as you (A Little Princess) when I tried to read The Secret Garden - loved the movie, couldn't do the book. :(ReplyDelete

Interesting list! I don't think I've actually read any of these books, but I have seen some of the movies. I absolutely loved Jumanji when I was younger, and Scott Pilgrim vs the Wolrd is definitely a favorite. Great list :)ReplyDelete
My TTT
I would agree with you on almost all of them except Little Women. Great list. It is usually the other way around. lolReplyDelete
We chose to share our Favorite Places to Read this week on Harlie's Books. Come on over!
The only ones I can really comment on are Little Women and Rapunzel/Tangled since I haven't read any of the other books (but have seen most of the movies). I agree about Tangled. It's a brilliant adaptation that gives Rapunzel some actual depth to her character. But I disagree about Little Women, and that's because I love that book. It's actually the book that started my love of reading, back in 5th grade.ReplyDelete
Ashling @ Reading, Writing, & Anything but ArithmeticReplies
I'm so glad Little Women went better for you than me, and that it began your love of reading. That's awesome!Delete
Wow. So great. Didn't even know some of these were books!ReplyDelete
Kelsey @ Behind Closed Covers
Tangled is fantastic!! I think The Notebook was another movie that was better than the book. There was so much more in the movie.. and there was Ryan Gosling too :)ReplyDelete

About Us
We are a leading centre for undergraduate teaching, and host a thriving community of postgraduate scholars, literary critics, and interdisciplinary researchers. Our recent successes include:
Our teaching at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels spans the whole of the discipline of English Studies, from the Anglo-Saxon period to the present day. Students gain a solid base for the study of English Literature, while having the opportunity to specialise. We draw on a variety of different methodological perspectives, encouraging students to discover new approaches and to develop their own responses. This equips our graduates with the key skills and independent thinking that makes them highly sought by employers.
Students are taught in lectures and seminars, as well as small tutorial groups and one-to-one supervisions. Lectures are not compulsory, but tutorials and seminars are: undergraduates are expected to see their tutors regularly, and to prepare essays or shorter pieces for tutorial or seminar discussion. The University Library holds strong general collections in literary studies in its main building on Stockton Road as well as specialist collections on Palace Green. Both libraries are within easy walking distance of the Department.
The Department's ethos is that teaching and research should complement one another at all levels of academic enquiry, from first-year tutorials to the specialised supervision available to MA and doctoral postgraduates. Our work combines a strong sense of tradition with a commitment to innovation and new approaches.
Our research has regional, national and international impacts. We work with partner institutions such as the Durham Book Festival, with medical practitioners through the Centre for Medical Humanities, and with many other public and private organisations. The department is committed to engaging public audiences through its programme of events.
Our student community
Both the University and the Department are large enough to challenge and small enough to nurture, at all levels of undergraduate and postgraduate study. The mix is lively and inclusive, with students coming from all social backgrounds and all parts of the UK and abroad. The Department welcomes mature students as well as students who have taken 'gap' years.We also welcome Erasmus students and visiting students from universities in the United States.
Our formal teaching is complemented by exciting programmes of public lectures, research seminars, and readings by renowned writers.
Our environment
Founded in 1832, Durham University is the third oldest University in England and one of the most distinguished and distinctive in the UK. Durham is a small and ancient city. Its castle and cathedral form a World Heritage site and its colleges, library, and arts and sporting facilities provide a lively and congenial environment in which to study.The Department of English Studies is mainly situated in two buildings, Hallgarth House and Elvet Riverside. Hallgarth House, a Georgian listed building, provides accommodation for the majority of its teaching and administrative staff. Elvet Riverside stands beside the River Wear.
Our Staff
We are a leading centre for undergraduate teaching, and host a thriving community of postgraduate scholars, literary critics, and interdisciplinary researchers.

This is a very colorful fresh tasting soup. The house smells so wonderful while it is cooking. You really need a food processor to get this fully pureed and silky.
The soup could be the star of a luncheon or a starter for dinner. This soup freezes very well and can stay for about 2 months in the freezer.
5 oz pancetta diced
1 medium onion chopped
2 lbs carrots, peeled and chopped
5 celery stalks chopped
2 large russet potatoes peeled and chopped
1/2 cup flour
2-1/2 quarts low sodium chicken stock
1 stick unsalted butter
6 sprigs italian parsley, and some for garnish
2 bay leaves
4 sprigs fresh thyme
fresh ground pepper
sour cream for garnish
Take cheesecloth or kitchen twine and make a bundle of the parsley, bay leaf and thyme as you will be discarding it later.
In a soup pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add pancetta and stir until soft but not brown. Add onion, carrots, celery and potatoes. Stir frequently until the carrots and potatoes are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour until it is incorporated into the vegetables. Add the chicken broth and bring soup to a boil. Add the spice bundle and season with salt and pepper. Turn heat to low and cook covered for about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally. Remove form heat and let cool to almost room temperature.
Discard the spice bundle and ladle soup into a food processor in batches. Run it until the soup is a creamy puree. Return the soup to the pot and when you are ready to serve reheat and garnish with some chopped fresh parsley and a dollop of sour cream.
I like to serve with a nice crusty italian bread...

From the Editors 2015
Letters from the 2015 IRIS Editors: Hannah Noah (MS2), Lee Hong (MD/PhD year 4), Jenny Shen (MPH year), Caleb Pearce (MS2), Rashmi Kumar (MS1), and Betsy Price (MS1).
Welcome to the 2015 edition of Iris! I hope you enjoy browsing through our submissions as much as we did.
For as long as I can remember, I have been obsessed with art. Whether drawing a portrait, painting a landscape, or baking a GI-system-themed cake, few things make me happier than creating. But as my schedule becomes more demanding each year, it becomes easier to let my artistic interests fall by the wayside. In my second year of medical school, I rarely have time to just sit around and draw.
There are undoubtedly others who would appreciate an opportunity or two to be creative, even in our hard-working culture. This is the purpose of Iris. Like last year, we hosted a painting workshop and a poetry reading night for the medical students. Our painting workshop allowed students to relax, laugh, create stunning little paintings, and make holiday gifts. Our February poetry workshop, which happened to fall the day after the Chapel Hill shootings, allowed students to express their hope for peace.
We are proud to present the amazing poems, photographs, artwork, and stories we received for the 2015 edition of Iris. We hope you'll feel inspired by the creativity of your colleagues, and maybe even consider submitting something yourself next year!
~Hannah Noah, MS2
I had reached a breaking point. During my second year in graduate school, I was feeling listless, disillusioned, and tired. Maybe it was from the second consecutive unusually hard winter, the endless pages of negative data in my lab notebook, or from the fact that I had long stopped tapping into my creative writing. Something had to change – my advisor told me – and I agreed.
I wrote this poem to remind myself that even in the midst of training to be a physician-scientist, I have to, need to, tickle the right half of my brain every now and then. Being creative brings about its own energy and life that feeds into other aspects of my life, even when I sit at my bench pipetting.
This poem is for those who feel stuck in a rut.
The year of non-creative thinking
Look, there's something I need to get off my chest.
This was the year of non-creative thinking.
I sat under perpetually fluorescent light,
wondering what I'm doing here.
The year of non-swimsuit tan.
Confidence. That's another one.
I lost confidence.
It seeped out of my veins,
'til no color remained,
as I swirled my glass of red wine at one free networking event after another,
in my little black dress.
The year of non-small talk.
Am I even real?
When I talk, is my voice merely a recording,
like one of those vinyls
sold by hipsters with horn-rimmed glasses
who think they're so bohemian?
The year of non-listening.
I spoke in one cliché after another,
Clicked dutifully on each Facebook "like,"
Until one day I put down my pen
and stopped writing poems.
The year of non-creative thinking.

Water is the vehicle for color in a watercolor painting. The pigment blooms as soon as it interacts with the water molecules. But the painter cannot stop to admire the alchemy. The painter must move swiftly to put the mixture on paper while visualizing the story that the painting will tell. This blend of simultaneous visualization and creation is what makes visual media unique.
Visual art is a language of its own that directly aims to put the artist's vision on paper. I find it enthralling to think of the final painting as a snapshot of the painter's mind. The interpretations and sensations experienced by viewing a painting for the first time can be numerous, but the painting that you see is a tangible representation of the artist's idea. How does one read the mind of another? I believe that visual media aims to partially answer that question while providing you with the opportunity to also understand your own. I invite you to take a look at the wonderful visual art submissions for this year with an open mind and the notion that perhaps we can forge a connection with the artist's mind through this process while engaging ours in a novel way.
Moments in Medicine #1
"Son, we are lucky to have people who can fix your heart"
These are the words a father said to his son at the hospital entrance.
I had the honor of being the by-stander to witness
A remarkable exchange.
A second ago my day was routine
Then this.
A blonde-headed boy
Barely school age, with a smile on his face
The dad clutched his son's hand and looked down at him
The most loving eyes I have ever seen from a man
The emotion was apparent,
as he kept a tear from falling.
I, maybe less of a man, surrendered one to gravity
A doctor in this hospital "fixed" a heart.
But he did more than that
He sculpted an exchange that will forever be etched
Into every atom that I possess.
And once I passed I faintly heard the little boy issue a phrase:
"I know daddy, we are lucky"
Moments in Medicine #2
I was with med team today rounding in the hospital.
A pathology report returned just before we entered the 4th patient's room.
Stage 4 metastatic cancer.
As the doctor explained to the patient the results, what treatments are available and where to go from here I was overcome with emotion.
The patient and I were both trying to hold back the inevitable as long as possible
The conversation ended and the med team exited the room with sullen hearts.
Something told me to stay in the room.
The attending passed me by,
followed by a 4th year
and two 3rd year medical students
heads down.
I stayed for a second,
Honestly not knowing why I was frozen in time.
Watching someone finally succumb to restrained tears, I too released one, walked over to the other side of the bed, grabbed the twitching hand and said words that only God could have delivered from my mouth.
"Stay strong, I will be praying for you".
Looking up with blood-shot eyes the patient issued a "thank you, thank you."
As I caught up to the med team I realized how blessed of a man I am and how grateful I am for the simple things that this life and career have to offer.
~Caleb Pearce
While I studied as an English major at the University of Alabama, I could never quite stop myself from bringing my love of science into my creative pieces. I twisted the subjects together and was shocked at how the left and right side of the brain could come together to create something so organic. To say that I was pleasantly surprised would have been an understatement. I was so enthused by the outcome that attempting to create more, similar pieces became something of an addiction--every assignment, no matter poetry or prose, I did not consider complete until I had wedged in at least a solitary scientific element.
As an aspiring medical student, it wasn't at all uncommon for my choice of major to be questioned. Whenever that happened, I wanted nothing more than to prove that science and art could be one and the same. It is, in its entirety, a matter of perspective. I was (and still am) determined to shift the perception of those around me until they achieve the same realization.
"Macroscopic Microscopy"
Microscopic bodies move
in tandem towards
one initiative
one purpose
interconnected but
independent from
membranous neighbors.
Unique, self-reliant, and individual
in the feverish highs and chilling lows
of human homeostasis
they work together and alone.
Identical genetic material
limitless permutations
of expression—
compact nuclei
always working
always synthesizing
always directing
always propelling
nearer to lysis—
No longer
mutually productive
too dangerous
too volatile
no respiration
no reproduction—
a biological
A part of us dies,
but the civilized macrocosm—
a person, the world—lives on.
The same on another scale—
a parallel plane where humans
swarm and scramble
like a cloudy fluid medium
of cells too crowded
to survive
fighting for nutrients
shriveling in plastic
Smash the microscope into the cold tiles beneath your shoes—
use your eyes—
We are what builds us—
trapped, ignorant of the force
that drives us
that terminates us—
so critical—
The tiny stories of our blood tell all.

The Zen Hussies formed in 2001 in an endeavour to reclaim roots music forms such as trad jazz, blues, ska, rock and roll and swing back from the clutches of mere nostalgia and attempt to invest these wonderful influences with a contemporary relevance to today's world whilst respecting the traditions from which they arose.
Led by frontman, singer songwriter and multi instrumentalist Jules Landau AKA Jonah Flatfoot the band have been at the forefront of the UK revival with a thousand live appearances at festivals, clubs, pubs and bars all over Europe. Their trademark sound has been described by Festival Eye magazine as 'the sonic definition of happiness' and is a whirl of bluesy hollers, swinging trumpet, baritone sax, clarinet, harmonica, double bass, guitars, drums and good humoured stylistic nudges and winks.
DIY from the start, the band have never attempted to garner assistance from the mainstream music industry, which probably accounts for their longevity and has earned them almost cult like status in the UK live music scene and a devoted array of followers of all ages.
Their recorded discography so far is as follows;
Five Guys Maim Notes EP (2002)
Flatfoot Sharpsuit LP (2004)
Continental Adapter LP (2008)
Troubled Feet LP (2010)
Breadline / Double Shift 7″ (2013)
The Charm Account LP (due August 2015)
From octogenarian couples showing off their shapes for the first time in years to toddlers twisting and teenagers ceiling surfing, The Zen Hussies have instigated all the above and more!
The links below will take you to videos and audio of some of their past output and adventures.
The Zen Hussies continue to gig and write new material apace, and hope to be taking the stage somewhere near you soon – wherever you are!
Jules Landau AKA Jonah Flatfoot - Lead vocals, words, rhythm guitar, clarinet, harmonica.
Count Sebski Velo - Lead guitar, vocals.

The 2017-18 PGA Tour season got underway this week in Napa, Calif., while across the pond the European Tour held the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland.
Here are this week's winners and losers from the golf world.
Matthew Southgate
Just two weeks ago, Southgate found himself in the 'losers' category below, after incurring a three shot penalty at the Web.com Tour's DAP Championship. The unfortunate break would eventually cost the Englishman a PGA Tour card for the 2017-18 season, but he took full responsibility for the mistake in Ohio this week. "It was poor form of me not to know the rules of the game I've been playing since I was two. I take full responsibility," Southgate told The Telegraph. "People say it's bad luck, but it's not bad luck, because I should have replayed the shot and I could have made 4. But I didn't, and it became 9, and that became me missing my card. I've got only myself to blame. I'm not annoyed with anyone else."
Ross Fisher
There have been a lot of professional rounds played at the Old Course at St. Andrews, but only one man can lay claim to the lowest score. Ross Fisher made eleven birdies and no bogeys in the final round of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, posting a 61 for the course record. Fisher's score could've been one shot better, but he failed to birdie the short 357-yard par-4 18th hole, when he three-putted for par.
John Daly
After his opening round Thursday at the Safeway Open, Daly paid tribute to the late Tom Petty, joining Gavin DeGraw on stage with a rendition of "I Won't Back Down." On Friday, the two-time major champion birdied two of his final five holes to make the cut at Silverado Resort & Spa. It was his first 36-hole cut made since 2015, when he finished in a tie for 10th at the Puerto Rico Open.
Phil Mickelson's tee game
Erratic would be an understatement in describing Mickelson's driving accuracy at the Safeway Open this week. The 47-year-old could've ended a four-year winless drought if he simply found more fairways off the tee. Mickelson missed the fairway with drivers and irons, putting pressure on his recovery game for 72 holes. The five-time major champion hit only 26.8% of the fairways, tying him for last in the field.
PGA Tour offseason
The problem with the PGA Tour offseason is there isn't one. Three days after the U.S. clinched the Presidents Cup at Liberty National, the 2017-18 campaign kicked off in Napa, Calif., with the Safeway Open. Just seven players inside the top 50 were in the field, with 47-year-old Phil Mickelson the highest ranked at No. 30. The Web.com Tour wrapped up with a Monday finish, giving those who earned their cards only two days to prepare for their opening round.

Whee! More strange news stories. All real. No kidding. Read on, brave strange news reader person.
One of the actual wife-carrying Estonians.
(Finland) - Estonians took gold and silver at the 2007 world wife-carrying championships in Finland, defying rain and exhaustion to stumble along a path with women clinging upside-down to their backs. They were among 44 couples from 12 countries competing in the annual event in Sonkajarvi, central Finland. The race, held for the 12th time, is intended to evoke the spirit of a legendary Finnish brigand, Rosvo-Ronkainen, who made those who wanted to join his gang run through a forest carrying heavy sacks on their backs. In the modern version, couples race along a track, tackling a pool and several hurdles, with the men carrying the women on their backs. Estonian Madis Uusorg finished first, despite having Inga Klauson on his back upside-down with her legs around his neck. Madis Uusorg is the brother of last year's winner, Margo Uusorg, who holds the world record for the event. "I'm feeling really great because we won," Madis said afterwards. "It was my fifth time here, second time to win this competition. And it was the first time to beat my brother!"
(Texas, AP) - Arrest warrants have been issued for two officials at a Christian boot camp accused of dragging a 15-year-old girl behind a van after she fell behind the group during a morning run, authorities said. Charles Eugene Flowers and Stephanie Bassitt of San Antonio-based Love Demonstrated Ministries, a 32-day boot camp, are facing aggravated assault charges for the incident. The two were accused of tying the girl to the van with a rope then dragging her. Arrest affidavits for Flowers and Bassitt list a $100,000 bond. Flowers, the camp's director, allegedly ordered Bassitt to run alongside the girl after she fell behind. When the girl stopped running, Bassitt allegedly yelled at her and pinned her to the ground while Flowers tied the rope to her. The girl's mother gave investigators photos of her daughter's injuries that were taken at a hospital where the girl was treated and a sworn statement from a witness who claimed to see the girl being dragged on her stomach at least three times.
(Indiana, AP) - A businessman who said a dead relative told him in a dream to cook the world's largest pierogi believes he and a friend did just that at Pierogi Fest. Tim King said his uncle sent him on a mission to create a monster dumpling filled with potatoes and cream cheese when he appeared in a dream three years ago. "I am half-Polish and have been around pierogi all my life. And, believe it or not, I had a dream about my Uncle Emil, who is deceased," King said. "We were eating pierogi together and he told me to cook the world's largest." King's friend, former chef Eric Mansfield, helped devise the cooking plan. Mansfield said it took 25 pounds of flour, 2 1/2 dozen eggs, a gallon of water, 40 potatoes, two pounds of butter and months of planning to make the 48-by-35-inch, 100-pound pierog. A custom-made pot was used to cook it. Mansfield and his assistants then slathered it with buttery onions as it cooled. After a round of picture taking, they cut it up and served it. Whether it is the world's largest pierogi remains to be seen. King said the Guinness Book of World Records ignored their request to be included in the next edition. But that didn't phase him or his crew. They plan to top themselves every year until the Guinness people have no choice but to pay attention. "I'm just helping out a friend," Mansfield said. "Tim wanted it done, and I did it. It was different. It was definitely different, but it was cool. I wish Guinness would have come here for this."
(Phoenix, AP) - Officers responding to a report of an exorcism on a young girl found her grandfather choking her and used stun guns to subdue the man, who later died, authorities said. The three-year-old girl and her mother, who was also in the room during the struggle between 49-year-old Ronald Marquez and officers, were hospitalized, police said. Their condition was unavailable. ''The purpose was to release demons from this very young child,'' said Sgt. Joel Tranter. Officers arrived at the house and entered when they heard screaming coming from a bedroom, Tranter said. A bed had been pushed up against the door. The officers pushed it open a few inches and saw Marquez choking his bloodied granddaughter, who was crying in pain and gasping, Tranter said. A bloody, naked 19-year-old woman who police later determined to be Marquez's daughter and the girl's mother was in the room, chanting ''something that was religious in nature,'' Tranter said. The officers forced open the door enough for one to enter, leading to a struggle in which an officer used a stun gun on Marquez, Tranter said. After the initial stun had no visible effect, another officer squeezed into the room and stunned him. The girl was freed and passed through the door to the relative. Marquez was placed in handcuffs after a struggle with officers and initially appeared normal, but then stopped breathing, Tranter said. He could not be revived and was pronounced dead at a hospital. The cause of death was not immediately known.
DRIVER ODs, CRASHES INTO DRUG TREATMENT CENTER
(Ohio) - A man with a needle sticking out of his arm crashed into a Clifton Heights, Ohio drug treatment center, witnesses said. The driver, whose name has not been released, was arrested and taken to a hospital for treatment of unspecified injuries. Police said the man was unconscious and had overdosed on a drug, possibly heroin. He regained consciousness when he was loaded into an ambulance and attempted to jump out and flee, but police caught him and restrained him with handcuffs. Some patients at Gateway House said the driver had once been treated at the Vine Street halfway house. No other injuries were reported.
(Washington, Reuters) - A man with an unusually tiny brain managed to live an entirely normal life despite his condition, caused by a fluid buildup in his skull, French researchers reported. Scans of the 44-year-old man's brain showed that a huge fluid-filled chamber called a ventricle took up most of the room in his skull, leaving little more than a thin sheet of actual brain tissue. "He was a married father of two children, and worked as a civil servant," Dr. Lionel Feuillet and colleagues at the Universite de la Mediterranee in Marseille wrote in a letter to the Lancet medical journal. The man went to a hospital after he had mild weakness in his left leg. "What I find amazing to this day is how the brain can deal with something which you think should not be compatible with life," commented Dr. Max Muenke. "If something happens very slowly over quite some time, maybe over decades, the different parts of the brain take up functions that would normally be done by the part that is pushed to the side," added Muenke.
(Thailand) - A young Thai man lost his penis to his knife-wielding wife and then forgot to bring his severed member with him to hospital, fatefully delaying a reattachment operation, news reports said. Sornlam Yotbanya had a heated argument with his wife, Rungnapha Pongalee, about his mistress. He went to bed and was rudely awoken hours later when his wife sliced off his member, reported ITV. In Sornlam's haste to get to Bangramrung hospital in Chonburi, he left his penis behind in his bedroom. Bangramrung hospital dispatched a nurse to retrieve the severed member for a reattachment operation. Although the nurse packed the penis in ice, too many of the cells had died by the time it was delivered to hospital, killing all hopes of a revival. Thai hospitals, especially Bangkok's Police hospital, have achieved some fame for their high success rate with penis reattachment operations, providing they are carried out swiftly with all the parts in place.
(Washington, D.C.) A grand feast of marinated steaks and jumbo shrimp was winding down, and a group of friends was sitting on the back patio of a Capitol Hill home, sipping red wine. Suddenly, a hooded man slid in through an open gate and put the barrel of a handgun to the head of a 14-year-old guest. "Give me your money, or I'll start shooting," he demanded, according to D.C. police and witness accounts. "We were just finishing dinner," Cristina "Cha Cha" Rowan, 43, blurted out. "Why don't you have a glass of wine with us?" The intruder took a sip of their Chateau Malescot St-Exupéry and said, "Damn, that's good wine." The girl's father, Michael Rabdau, 51, who described the harrowing evening in an interview, told the intruder, described as being in his 20s, to take the whole glass. Rowan offered him the bottle. The would-be robber, his hood now down, took another sip and had a bite of Camembert cheese that was on the table. Then he tucked the gun into the pocket of his nylon sweatpants. "I think I may have come to the wrong house," he said, looking around the patio of the home. "I'm sorry," he told the group. "Can I get a hug?" Rowan, who lives in Falls Church and works part time at her children's school, stood up and wrapped her arms around him. Then it was Rabdau's turn. Then his wife's. The other two guests complied. "That's really good wine," the man said, taking another sip. He had a final request, "Can we have a group hug?" The five adults surrounded him, arms out.
(Finland) - Estonians took gold and silver at the 2007 world wife-carrying championships in Finland, defying rain and exhaustion to stumble along a path with women clinging upside-down to their backs. They were among 44 couples from 12 countries competing in the annual event in Sonkajarvi, central Finland. The race, held for the 12th time, is intended to evoke the spirit of a legendary Finnish brigand, Rosvo-Ronkainen, who made those who wanted to join his gang run through a forest carrying heavy sacks on their backs. In the modern version, couples race along a track, tackling a pool and several hurdles, with the men carrying the women on their backs. Estonian Madis Uusorg finished first, despite having Inga Klauson on his back upside-down with her legs around his neck. Madis Uusorg is the brother of last year's winner, Margo Uusorg, who holds the world record for the event. "I'm feeling really great because we won," Madis said afterwards. "It was my fifth time here, second time to win this competition. And it was the first time to beat my brother!" Margo won his fifth world championship in 2006 and said at the time it might be his last.
(New Hampshire, AP) - Leaf it to New Hampshire, where a bank branch was held up by a man disguised as a tree. Just as the Citizen Bank branch opened, a man walked in with leafy boughs duct-taped to his head and torso, and robbed the place. "He really went out on a limb," police Sgt. Ernie Goodno said. Police said the leafy man didn't saying anything about having a weapon, just demanded cash, and was given an undisclosed amount. Although the branches and leaves obscured much of the man's face, someone who saw images from the bank's security camera recognized the robber and called police. Officers said James Coldwell, 49, was arrested at his Manchester home and charged with robbery.
(England) - A U.K. prisoner was admitted to the hospital recently after he hid a mobile phone inside his body and was unable to expel it later. According to the tabloid newspaper, Martin Mahoney, a convicted burglar had hidden the mobile phone inside his anus to hide it during a routine prison search. He had spent days trying to get it out, but was eventually forced to confess to guards. He had to have more than 200 internal stitches and the doctors had to remove part of his bladder. This is a common way to hide mobile phones during inspections as phones are banned inside prisons. Doubtless news of what happened may dissuade prisoners from this activity in future. A source told the newspaper, "Cons are calling him Phoney Mahoney. Sounds funny but he could have died." A Prison Service spokeswoman said, "There are rigorous search systems in place for prisoners and any visitors in order to prevent mobile phones entering prisons. Unfortunately, however, there are occasional breaches in security. It is now well established that prisoners can and do secrete mobile phones in body cavities."

The Nigerian Naira on Thursday weakened to an all-time low of N330.50 against the US dollar, following the Central Bank decision to abandon fix exchange rate.
The local currency dropped as much as 5.4 percent to N309 against the US dollar as of 12:24 GMT on Thursday before retreating to N292.40 on the interbank market.
A total of $7.27 million was traded at the interbank market, where traders were expecting the Central Bank to intervene as usual to ease dollar shortages, but up till now central bank is yet to intervene.
"Instead it was mopping up naira liquidity to support the currency. After market closed, a total of $7.10 million trades were done as low as 330.50 naira to the dollar," a trader said.
"Now that the market has adjusted upwards it seems people are comfortable and that's why we are seeing some trades," he added.
Commercial Banks had been selling the dollar at 280 to 285 Naira after the central bank removed its 16-month-old peg of 197 Naira to a US dollar in June.
"But the lack of liquidity at those levels has curbed activity, leaving the central bank as the main supplier of dollars," traders say.

LOS ANGELES — A lawyer for Michael Jackson's doctor said his client never gave or prescribed Jackson the painkillers Demerol or OxyContin, and denied reports suggesting that the doctor gave the pop star drugs that contributed to his death.
LOS ANGELES — A lawyer for Michael Jackson's doctor said his client never gave or prescribed Jackson the painkillers Demerol or OxyContin, and denied reports suggesting that the doctor gave the pop star drugs that contributed to his death.
Edward Chernoff said in an interview Sunday with The Associated Press that any drugs that Dr. Conrad Murray gave Jackson were prescribed in response to a specific complaint from Jackson.
"Dr. Murray has never prescribed nor administered Demerol to Michael Jackson," Chernoff said. "Not ever. Not that day. ... Not Oxycontin (either) for that matter."
Londell McMillan, the Jackson family attorney, said on NBC's "Today" show Monday that the family was "quite clearly troubled" about the circumstances surrounding the death, given that Jackson had appeared healthy enough to be rehearsing for his upcoming concerts.
Asked whether the family suspected foul play, McMillan said those words were "too strong an indictment."
Chernoff, also on "Today," said he didn't think that his client was "ready for this kind of attack" on his credentials and actions in the case. But he said that "it's expected, considering the circumstances."
Once the full investigation is complete, Chernoff said, he expected Murray would be exonerated and the family would feel differently.
Jackson still had a faint pulse and a warm body when Murray found him in bed and not breathing Thursday afternoon, Chernoff said in the AP interview.
Chernoff said Murray was at the pop icon's rented mansion when he discovered Jackson in bed and not breathing. The doctor immediately began administering CPR, Chernoff said.
"He just happened to find him in his bed, and he wasn't breathing," the lawyer said. "Mr. Jackson was still warm and had a pulse."
Jackson's family requested a private autopsy in part because of questions about Murray, the Rev. Jesse Jackson said. Murray also told the family an autopsy should be performed, Chernoff said.
People close to Michael Jackson have said since his death that they were concerned about his use of painkillers. Los Angeles County medical examiners completed their autopsy Friday and said Jackson had taken unspecified prescription medication.
Asked if the Jackson family was worried about Murray's role in the death, the Rev. Al Sharpton said on CBS' "Early Show": "They have not taken an accusatory tone toward anyone."
Sharpton, a family friend, said the family was getting a second autopsy because they wanted to be sure they have all the facts, not because they have any specific suspicions.
Paramedics were called to the mansion while the doctor was performing CPR, according to a recording of the 911 call.
Because Jackson was so frail, Murray "administered with his hand behind his back to provide the necessary support," Chernoff said. Some have speculated the doctor botched the CPR.
"He's a trained doctor," Chernoff said. "He knows how to administer CPR."
Medics spent three-quarters of an hour trying to revive Jackson. He was pronounced dead later at UCLA Medical Center.
Murray was interviewed by investigators for three hours Saturday. His spokeswoman called Murray "a witness to this tragedy," not a suspect in the death, and police described the doctor as cooperative.
The attorney said Murray will wait to speak publicly until after the police and forensics investigation is complete.
A second autopsy can allow the family to get some information about a death almost immediately, including signs of heart, brain or lung disease or fresh needle punctures, said Dr. Michael Baden, a medical examiner not involved in the Jackson case.
"Usually if it looks normal with the naked eye, it looks normal under the microscope," said Baden, who recently performed a second autopsy on actor David Carradine.
Los Angeles County coroner's officials said their autopsy found no indication of trauma or foul play. But because of additional tests, an official cause of death could take weeks to determine.
Three days after the death of the King of Pop, celebrities descended on Los Angeles for a spectacular celebration of Jackson's life at the annual BET awards show.
Joe Jackson, Michael's father, walked on the red carpet wearing a black hat, sunglasses and a dark suit. He did not appear on stage during the show.
"I just wish he could be here to celebrate himself," he said. "Sadly, he's not here, so I'm here to celebrate for him."
In a statement read at the show, Jackson's parents said they solely had the personal and legal "authority for our son and his children." It was their strongest declaration yet about their son's affairs.
A tearful Janet Jackson appeared on stage in a white dress at the end of the BET awards. After a long pause to gather herself, she spoke haltingly but deliberately to the audience.
"I'd just like to say that to you, Michael is an icon. To us, Michael is family. And he will forever live in all of our hearts," she said.
There was no word from the family on funeral plans. Many of Jackson's relatives have gathered at the family's Encino compound, caring there for Jackson's three children.
Sharpton planned to visit the Jackson compound Monday and would talk with the family about how to memorialize the late pop star. Sharpton said they want to hold memorials in key cities around the globe and also planned a memorial service Tuesday at the Apollo Theater in New York.

I recently got sent a CD called 'Better Get Ready' by a New York-based Jewish punk band called Moshiach Oi. It's down and dirty, fearsomely fast and undeniably hardcore. The band are ultra-orthodox, probably Chabadniks from what I can gather and the lyrics reflect this with lots of talk about Moshiach and mitzvot. The aggression of punk seems to match the fundamentalism of the message.
Then I heard about an Israeli band called Chasidica (there's a feature on them here). Here's their logo:
While the Metallica-logo shtick would appear to suggest yet another Jewish parody band, Chasidica are much more interesting: their left-field alt rock influences combine with their interest in chassidus and kabbalah to produce quite an intriguing brew (although they too are prone to bouts of tiresome Moshiach-ism).
When I think of bands like this, plus other acts like Y Love or Matisyahu, I'm struck by how pretty much the only Jewish acts who sing about spiritual/religious stuff that I like tend to be orthodox - and often ultra-orthodox. The kinds of Jewish music I can't stand tend to be made by Reform Jews - who I am much closer to in practice - like Craig Taubman or Debbie Friedman. Progressive religion doesn't seem to fit well with cutting edge music, at least in the Jewish case. So the most intriguing music tends to be made by either secular or orthodox Jews and the centre is mostly pretty mushy.
There's another pattern here: the music I seem to enjoy most seems to be made by people whose views I don't share, even abhor. I seem to like the music of fundamentalists like Moshiach Oy or Burzum more than I do the music of people like me. Perhaps because fundamentalists are good at passion?
So nu am I being unfair? Probably...

The Ohio BioProducts Innovation Center (OBIC) at The Ohio State University is a research initiative that integrates academia and industry toward the development of renewable specialty chemicals, polymers/plastics and advanced materials. The Center was funded in 2005 by the Ohio Department of Development through an $11.5 million Wright Center of Innovation (Third Frontier) award, leveraged with matching funds from external partners.
As a major manufacturing state, Ohio is a significant user of energy and materials. Ohio farmers and agri-business can produce and convert biomass to supply major portions of this material demand as a substitute for petroleum based feedstock. To enhance Ohio's position as a leader in bioproducts innovation, OBIC fosters the discovery and use of new technologies via a market needs model, thereby accelerating bioproducts commercialization.
OBIC's main focus of activity is to accelerate the commercialization of Ohio's bio-based products to be adopted for use as replacements for petroleum based products. The goal is to provide a material flow of Ohio agriculture resources such as corn, soy, and agriculture/industrial waste products and convert them into bio-based materials for the polymer, bio-chemical, and agriculture industries. To accomplish this, OBIC identifies gaps in the bioproducts supply chain and fills those gaps.
Dennis Hall and Shannon Hollis of the Ohio BioProducts Innovation Center demonstrate two biopolymer based products: a mug made of poly-lactic acid and a soy-based spray.
Another area of focus is to help companies research and develop new bio-based products by providing financial assistance through grants from Ohio's Third Frontier program, technical expertise, and support from organizations such as Battelle, PolymerOhio, Ohio Soybean Council, and others. The end result is the growth and success of these new business ventures and the creation of new jobs in Ohio.
Ohio has several major manufacturers of tires and rubber products which create a high demand for natural rubber. The supply of natural rubber is dependent on importation from foreign sources. In fact, 100% of all natural rubber in the USA is imported from other countries. Demand is high for natural rubber, which results in premium prices for natural rubber.
Natural rubber is made by the "Russian dandelion," Taraxacum kok-saghyz (TKS), which is being domesticated at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center (OARDC). This plant produces high-quality natural rubber in its fleshy taproot. Its performance mirrors the natural rubber produced from Hevea brasiliensis (the Brazilian rubber tree). The state's rubber industry has been negatively impacted by a natural rubber supply shortage as well as the price volatility of petroleum raw materials for synthetic rubber production. There is a strategic need to develop viable alternative natural rubber sources for the state of Ohio and for our nation.
A collaboration involving The Ohio State University, the University of Akron, Oregon State University, Cooper Tire, and Bridgestone Americas has received a $3 million Third Frontier Wright Projects Program grant through the Ohio Department of Development to develop a new industry based on this renewable, domestic source of natural rubber. This industry will produce more than $130 million in total revenues and create 165 jobs in Ohio in the near term in the state's agricultural and rubber-products sectors. In the longer term, a new industry centered in Ohio will expand to address this very important national need. Most of the funding is targeted to building a pilot-scale processing facility on OARDC's Wooster campus that will generate 20 metric tons of rubber per year for industrial testing.
Another Ohio based bioproduct comes from The Andersons' Advanced Granule Technology, which includes soil-dispersing granules that dissolve into the soil when moistened, foliar granules that stick to leaf surfaces, and foaming granules. These crop management technologies, which deliver active ingredients, are being developed to precisely deliver desired herbicides, pesticides and nutrients. The Andersons have collaborated with The Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center (OARDC), the USDA Agricultural Research Service, Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc., PSB Company, and National Lime and Stone Company to research and develop new applications. These efforts are supported by an Ohio Third Frontier Research and Commercialization Program (OTFRCP) grant.
Originally, the Anderson's granule delivery system was targeted for use within the golf industry. "The grant has allowed our collaborative team to go beyond golf course applications and include horticulture—namely nurseries, floriculture, food (fruits and vegetables), and commodity crops (soy, wheat)," says Chuck Anderson. Success of the OTFRCP is projected to result in over 100 new jobs and create over $300 million in revenue for the state by 2015.
OBIC's overall driver is to create Ohio based jobs using Ohio based bio resources. This process is named Cell to Sell™ and was created by OBIC. OBIC provides value to industry partners through a market-pull business model designed to link technology and product development for the commercialization of bioproducts.

"He's right," Gibbons put in. He blinked a couple of times and turned pink. "Unless the real Haslop happened to be married, that is. I'm a bachelor myself, but I'd say there are some memories that a married man wouldn't discuss, even when marooned."
Captain Corelli stared at him admiringly. "I never gave you enough credit, Gibbons," he said. "You're right! How about--"
"Don't help any," one of the Haslops said morosely. "I never was married. And now I never will be if I've got to depend on you jerks to get me out of this mess."
The sun went down just then and a soft, drowsy darkness fell. I thought at first that we'd have to finish our investigation in the dark, but the natives had made provisions for that. A swarm of fireflies as big as robins sailed in from somewhere and circled around over the court, lighting it as bright as day. The Balakian houses made a dim row of flattened shadow-mounds at the outskirt
A rather interesting story premise that kind of wanders into nothing at the end.
Earthmen must determine who is the imposter among them, and it turns out there's not much interesting that goes on to do so.

Pantry Reboot: A Step-by-Step Guide to Stocking a Healthy Pantry
In my experience, the initial phase of embarking on a healthy lifestyle can either be exhilarating or exhausting. The latter often results in a quick burnout—you get too overwhelmed with the process of lifestyle change and, defeatedly, go back to old unhealthy habits.
At Whole Body Health, we want to make healthy living exciting and easy to incorporate into your daily life. It's for this reason we have monthly, free Weston A. Price meetings—to guide you through the process. This month we did a lecture on the "11 Principles of a Healthy Traditional Diet" in which we outlined the fundamentals of a healthy diet. These principles are as follows:
- No refined or denatured foods
- Contains some animal products
- Nutrient density
- Contains some raw foods
- High levels of enzymes and beneficial bacteria
- Sprouted seeds, grains, and nuts
- Low in polyunsaturated (vegetable fats)
- Equal amounts of Omega 6 and Omega 3 fatty acids
- Contains some unrefined salt
- Contains bone broth
- Provisions for future generations
I know what you're probably thinking: "What use are these 'principles' if I don't know how to incorporate them into my busy lifestyle? Where do I go from here?"
The first step is ridding your refrigerator and pantry of harmful foods, and replacing them with healing foods. Outlined below is a pantry reboot to get you started. This is going to be easier and less expensive than you might initially expect because as you replace harmful foods with nutrient rich foods, you will be less hungry while regaining energy and vitality.
The Pantry Reboot Guide: A Step-by-Step Guide to Stocking a Healthy Pantry
Step 1: Eliminate Harmful Foods
- Refined flour
- White pasta and white rice
- Boxed cereal
- Refined white sugar
- Vegetable oil
- Butter substitute
- Low-fat dairy (milk, yogurt, cheese)
- Sweetened dairy (flavoured yogurt, kefir, etc)
- Canned soups or broths containing MSG and artificial flavoring
- Artificial sweeteners
Step 2: Replace Harmful Foods with Healing Foods
- Sprouted flour made from organic or heirloom grains (whole wheat, buckwheat, eikorn, the list goes on and on)
- Sprouted, organic brown or wild rice
- Sprouted, organic cereals
- Organic cane sugar, honey, or grade B maple syrup
- Coconut oil, organic extra virgin cold pressed olive oil
- Butter, ghee (clarified butter), lard, tallow, duck fat
- Full fat, organic, non-homogenized dairy

Meet Karen Eld
Sound and Energy Healer, Clairvoyant, Clairaudient, & Empath
I assist in helping people to energetically heal on a vibrational level.
I believe that all obstacles and challenges placed in our path can best addressed on all levels – physically, mentally, and spiritually. I believe that unprocessed emotions and traumas can impact our overall well-being by leaving energetic wounds. And that our "dis-ease" occurs on all levels, not just the physical level.
As a Highly Sensitive Person, I can detect energetic wounds and assist in release and in re-alignment with flow and connectivity. By addressing our personal vibration, we can make space for change, growth, healing, and spiritual growth.
I have received training in Acutonics and Sound Healing, Kundalini Reiki, Clairvoyant Healing, Mediumship, and have an extensive background in the teachings of the Tarot.
Over the last two decades, I have mastered the art of living as a "highly sensitive person" while developing a repertoire of healing skills. My interest in metaphysics began when I started studying the Tarot at the age of 6!
I have been studying the healing arts for over 15 years. My healing modality is a unique blend of acutonics, clairvoyant healing & thermal healing, using tuning forks, a pendulum, healing crystals and singing bowls.
Tuning forks are applied to specific acupuncture points, chakras, and to the field around the body to treat issues on all levels – physically, mentally, and spiritually. I clear old, outdated, & foreign energy, replacing it with new, clear, healing energy. The tuning forks are designed to bring forth the varying energies of the planets so that the client is in tune with the natural vibrations of the universe; clients experience a "sound bath", bringing them in harmony with the moon, the sun, the earth, & the cosmic universe. High frequency tuning forks are used around the body, combined with specific sacred geometry applications to raise the overall vibration of the client.
Every session is different & tailored to the client; sessions are approximately an hour & a half. The sessions are helpful in many applications including: physical issues, spiritual issues, and mental issues, including ADD/ADHD, trauma/PTSD/abuse, depression, or simply to relieve stress & promote relaxation & harmony.
I love to help others to be their best. I love to share what has worked for me to relieve physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual pain or discontent. If you feel that your soul could be shining brighter, I'd love to help you.
Karen's Healing Modalities
Acutonics & Sound Healing
Acutonics is similar to Acupuncture, but instead of needles – tuning forks are used on the acupuncture points. This work addresses ALL of our bodies – the physical body, the emotional body, and the spiritual body. Each tuning fork corresponds to a unique planetary vibration. For example, the vibration of the Earth is fast and strong, grounding, and brings energy and strength.
The Moon forks are watery and feminine, helping us to bring closure and move through cycles when we get stuck while the Venus fork has much to do with love, creativity, and harmony.
High frequency tuning forks are used around the field of the body with sacred geometric patterns to lift the overall vibration of your being, and various applications bring a stronger connection to the soul and the mission that you came here to complete.
Singing bowls and crystals are often incorporated to bring balance to the chakras and the overall being.
We are made of vibration, and we are connected to everything and everyone. By using elements of the universe, we create a stronger connection to all that is.
Kundalini Reiki
Kundalini Reiki is a form of energy healing that allows for personal energy mending and healing of physical places and situational issues. Kundalini Reiki re-establishes balance and flow of energy throughout the physical body and energetic centers (the chakras), addressing trauma, past life issues, and ancestral/DNA issues.
Energetic Release & Alignment
All of my work incorporates working with energy and vibration. I do not have a set protocol for sessions – instead, I address what is calling for attention and release. I help to release energy that is stagnant, outdated or foreign. Each session is therefore customized for each unique individual and situation.
Disclaimer: While these modalities can bring relief and change, they are not a substitute for medical or professional mental health services.

Faster, easier and secure gateway to e-file income tax return
Eating out in a restaurant is an expensive thing to do these days. The number of charges and taxes on the restaurant bill can be highly confusing, especially if an individual does not know the taxing system. There are different charges levied on a restaurant bill such as Service Tax, Service Charge, VAT, Swach Bharat Cess and Krishi Kalyan Cess.
The tax collected by the Central Government for the services provided is called Service Tax. While eating out at a restaurant, the restaurant offers various hospitality services which are chargeable along with the total bill.
The imposition of Service Tax is only payable by restaurants that have an annual turnover of Rupees 10 Lacs and above (not applicable in Jammu and Kashmir). The Bar Council on 3rd November 2012 passed a notice stating that Service tax should be charged on Service Charge and not on the food bill. This tax is supposed to be paid by the service provider, but the restaurant owner in turn transfer this tax to the customers.
Initially, Service tax was to be collected by air-conditioned restaurants that served both food and alcohol. This noticed was amended by former Finance Minister of India, P. Chidambaram. The rate of Service Tax is 14%, but restaurants provide both the product and service which is why the Central Government has subsidized 60% on the tax levied upon restaurants. Hence, the Service Tax levied by a restaurant has been reduced to 40% of the total bill, which is 5.6%. While paying the bill if Service Tax of 6% or 6.1% is charged then it is because the Service Tax and Swachh Bharat Cess & Krishi Kalyan Cess have been compounded together.
The Norms of Filing Service Tax Returns in India Get Details
Although Service Tax and Service Charge may sound like the same thing, they are not. The Service Tax is imposed by the Government while the Service Charge is collected by the restaurant from the customers. The Department of Consumer Affairs declared that it was not mandatory for customers to pay Service Charge, but The National Restaurant Association of India objected this statement which is why many restaurants in India still ask for Service Charge in the total bill.
Depending upon a restaurant, a Service Charge can vary between 5% to 10%. It is up to the decision of the restaurant owner whether to charge this fee only on customers who eat at the restaurant or for home delivery. Usually, the high-end pubs, bars and restaurants levy Service Charge to ensure that the tips for their staffs are taken care of. The service tips are usually distributed amongst the employees of the establishment.
In India, one does not have to pay an additional tip to the waiter because it is already being charged for. The Ministry of Food, Public Affair and Distribution issued a notification stating that restaurants should apply service charges under the discretion of the customer, meaning that only if the customer is satisfied with the services he/she can pay the charges.
VAT or Value Added Tax is charged on the sale of every item. Since VAT comes under the ambit of State Government, the VAT rates may vary from one state to another. Even in the same state different rates of VAT are charged for different items. VAT is charged at every step of production or distribution of goods and services.
It is important to remember that VAT can only be charged on the food and non-alcoholic items prepared in the restaurant and not for packaged food. Usually, the VAT charged is between 5-20%.
Under Chapter VI of the Finance Act, 2015, Swatch Bharat Cess (starting 15th November 2015) and Krishi Kalyan Cess (starting 1st June 2016) are taxes collected in addition to Service Tax for financing as well as promoting Swatch Bharat Abhiyan & Krishi Kalyan Yojna.
These taxes are imposed on every taxable service at the rate 0.5%. SBC and KKC are charged, collected and paid to Government of India, apart from the Service Tax. Restaurants must charge and account these taxes separately in invoices and account books. Swatch Bharat Cess and Krishi Kalyan Cess should be paid under separate accounting code provided by the Government.
Breaking Down the Service Tax Rate in India Get Details
The rate of service tax levied by the Central Government is 14%. Along with Swachh Bharat Cess tax at 0.5%, the rate charged on the bills is 14.5%.
From June 1, 2016, 0.5% on Krishi Kalyan Cess was also added to this taxation, making the total Service Tax levied to the consumer up to 15%. Ideally, Service Tax should be charged only on 40% of the total value of the bill, which is the standard service expense. This means that as per the policy initiated by the Government of India, the Service Tax is not chargeable on the whole amount but just a portion of the bill.
Creating an awareness on the taxes charged upon the total bill while eating out at restaurants will educate Indian citizens about one's rights. A knowledge of the various taxes that are part of a restaurant bill (apart from the food and beverage cost) will make a customer aware if the restaurant is charging unreasonable taxes.
In India, the service charge is printed on the menu informing the customer about it, which is the reason why it becomes mandatory to pay this tax, even if the customer wasn't impressed with the service provided at the restaurant.

DARIEN, Ill. – A majority of U.S. adults would use video technology for interactions with doctors or other health professionals, according to a recent survey from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
"Telemedicine is impacting health care in all specialties, as patients want medical care when and where it is most convenient," said Jerry Barrett, executive director of the AASM, in a statement.
The survey found that more than half of all U.S. adults are already using live video technology for conversations or meetings, and 60% would be willing to use that technology for their health care. More than two-thirds of adults indicated they would use a live video meeting to see a sleep specialist.
The survey of more than 1,000 adults also found that about half are willing to use telemedicine to see their primary care provider.
Younger adults ages 18-34 showed the greatest interest in telemedicine, the survey said, with 70% saying they would use live video to see a health care professional and 83% saying they would use live video to see a sleep specialist or treat a sleep disorder.
"We are encouraged by the survey findings, which show that telemedicine is generating strong interest among patients," said Steve Van Hout, assistant executive director of AASM, in a statement.

Ladies Man is the epitome of a show whose sum is far less than the total of its parts.
The new CBS comedy boasts one of the most talent-laden casts ever assembled for a half-hour show. Five regulars have or could headline their own series: Sharon Lawrence (Fired Up), Betty White (The Golden Girls), Dixie Carter (Designing Women), Park Overall (Empty Nest) and British-born newcomer to TV Alfred Molina, a Tony-nominated stage and film actor, who is the titular lead of the series. In addition, the executive producer is Chris Thompson, who also is responsible for Action, the funniest new series of the season.
With all this going for Ladies Man, it would seem impossible to come up with a lackluster show.
It was not impossible.
The fatal flaw is that nothing about Ladies Man rings remotely true. Not the characters. Not the relationships. Not the premise. Every scene is from Sitcom 101: setup, punch line, reaction; setup, punch line, reaction. There is no heart and no soul. Hence, there is no reason to invest in these people.
Molina, an immensely likable big lug, plays Jimmy Stiles, the sole male in a household populated by women who live to torment him. A work-at-home furniture maker, he has no escape. He is so relentlessly browbeaten that his reaction to a greeting from any of the women is, "What'd I do?" Only a foil in a sitcom would tolerate such a situation.
The only one of his tormentors who seems to have any affection for Jimmy is his wife, Donna (Lawrence), whose sour disposition can be attributed to her pregnancy. (The doctor is predicting a girl.)
The two already have a 10-year-old daughter, Wendy, a manipulative little brat who uses guilt trips to get everything she wants from her father.
Jimmy has another daughter, 15-year-old Bonnie, whose incorrigibly rebellious behavior results in Jimmy's first wife, Clair, throwing up her hands and saying, "You take her and try to control her." This gives the acid-tongued Clair (Overall) license to be a regular presence in Jimmy's home.

Chapter 23
Frank followed up with more information on girls and ended by saying, "If nothing else, if you find yourself in conversations with braggers and guys who love to talk about sex, you'll probably be more well-informed than they are. Personally, I think anyone who brags about taking a girl's virginity is an asshole, but that's my opinion. I was brought up to respect girls and I do, even though some have put me through hell. If a guy is gay, then he should respect a gay guy the same as a girl. All human being deserve respect."
He went on to tell me where all the parts of a girl are located. That was embarrassing, but I really didn't know. Guys are simple compared to girls. Maybe that's why I like them.
Frank said, "I'm expecting a lot of questions of course. But if you don't have many, then that's fine too. I just thought it's a good idea to know this stuff when you're hanging with the guys who love talking about sex and sports. My advice is to just sit, listen, smile now and then, and share information or ask questions only when it seems appropriate. The guy who called you the school fag probably doesn't know shit about sex.

Hope you enjoyed your driving. I'm sure your grandparents did. I used to love driving, but not as much anymore. I'm impatient and like a kid always asking myself, "Why is it taking so long and why aren't we there yet?
Hard to believe it's already Friday. Went to our local fair today. I go for three reasons. 1. To look at photos entries, have a big corndog, and a chocolate covered ice cream cone. That's it. I have entered pictures in the fair before and won a couple 1st, 2nds and 3rds. Haven't entered the last couple years. I think I'll make it a point to do it next year.
Take care. I imagine you're going to be happy to be home even though you had a great time and YOU'RE GOING TO COLLEGE.
Got bless. Love ya.

God! Such a long day! I am totally
exhausted! We hadda stop n
see 15 stupid toursity things we didn't see on the
way here cause the rain kinda cleared up and grams was feelin
better. Then there was a LONG long
talk with my parents about EVERYTHING that happened and was said n decided. And FINALLY after the longest day in history followed by
the second coming of the Spanish Inquisition I'm FINALLY here in my room with
JUST me n Max n you. I've got so much I still wanna tell ya n ask ya, not to mention covering sex ed
part 2 (little too much info bro!) but I swear I'm just too wore out, tore out,
freaked out and tired out to go on tonight. I just wanna lay in bed and hug Max and drift off... we'll
talk tomorrow promise. Just glad to be back.
Love ya Frank! Will n Max (finally!! Woof!!!) Xo
He wrote back a short while later.
I completely understand. I bet you are tired. I'm glad to see that even young guys get tried too. The big difference is young people bounce back faster.
Better too much TMI than not enough.
Have a good night with Max.
God bless. Love You. Woof Woof

I didn't mean to scare the shit out of you. But how many people do you know that can give you so much sex information in 2 relatively short emails. Yes, more than you'd think you'd ever want to know. But I can tell you it's far more than most guys know so it puts you ahead of the game even though you're gay. Gay or straight, you should know what the hell is going on and the big difference between guys and girls. Simplified of course. But I do think that gay couples and gay guys suffer the same emotional experiences as hetero couples at least according to what gay guys say in their writing.
My brother and I were talking about gay sex awhile back. He's always been way ahead of me as far as having gay friends, but when I talked to him bluntly about gay sex, he got upset when I talked about what gay guys do when they're having sex and he says, "That's disgusting. I don't want to hear it."
So while you're jacking off and thinking about all the wonderful aspects of a guy and gay sex, it never hurts to think about the practical side.
God bless. Love you and Max too, even though I've never actually met either of you.

Ok...so like after we got back from shopping and I got done feeding Max and eating and putting my stuff away dad and George (church board member) told me to come to the kitchen with mom. Short talk of only like 3 min. George said tomorrow pastor asshole (he didn't say that) will make a statement (?) And an apology to the congregation at tomorrows main service about our "situation" and ask for forgiveness. And they want my parents to be there but they want me to stay home!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT????!!!?! Mom n dad didn't really look at me. George said it's for everybodys best interest (?????????). FrankI really want to talk to u on the phone!!!! PLEEZEE!!! mom n dad r leaving for Saturday bowling league in an hour and will be gone til at least 9 our time. Please please let me talk to u !!!!! I'm not gonna block my number, I need u to have it! Please let me call u! I'm fucked up in the head!

My lawyer friend doesn't think it's good for us to talk on the phone. I'd like that, but our best bet is still Google Docs even though she doesn't much like that either. I'll send you a link and then you can write me back with the time you'd like to meet. I just got through working out about an hour or so ago and need to take a short nap. So it would have to be around . Let me know if that works for you.
I'll send the link in a few minutes.
Will Waters email@example.com Sat, Aug 30,
I just don't get why we can't talk on the phone!?????! Why???? I've got like at least 5 hours before mom n dad get
home! And I'm really pissed n confused bout what to think bout this
pastor asshole church stuff!!! Why does
frankf4321s <email@example.com> Sat, Aug 30,
To: email@example.com
I understand your concern and it's not that I don't trust you, but things can happen and be misunderstood. You know, it's a matter of perspective.. That's even true of our current emails. What happens if someone gets hold of your phone and gets access? A professional can easily do that. I realize that nothing is going on here, and I understand you're anxious, but I find it better if we just stick to email for right now. If you were 18, it would be different. I know it shouldn't make any difference, but my former doctor is currently in jail for allegedly having a relationship with a 17 year old girl. So you should understand my reluctance. I am a retired teacher and principal and of course that should mean something, but look at your pastor.
Of course it looks like the church is trying to sweep it all up under the rug. I personally think you should sue his ass. I'll have to think about this a little while longer.
Frank Still love ya.
Will Waters <email@example.com> Sat, Aug 30,
guess I can KINDA SORTA understand a little bit why she says I shouldn't talk
to ya (?) But why not? I don't wanna seem stupid but
before ya call me run it by me one more time please. As long as nobody hears us OHHH!!! I
GET IT NOW!!! ok... what if we had specific set safe
times to talk???? Frank I get that we gotta be safe ok? What about this...how bout u mail me if
my number just in case. 555-534-2312
We still love ya!!! Will n Max! WOOF WOOF! HA!
I was hoping he'd call, but he was still unsure. He worries too much. Hell, there's nothing going on here. Frank's just a mentor. I kept begging him with please and one long PLEEEZZEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! Finally he agreed to call me using *67 on his phone so I couldn't see his number. All his damn worrying started to bother me, but I kept at him. Finally he called.
You gotta understand, the damn church people were going to meet and they didn't want me there. My heart is about to jump out of my chest or out my throat and I needed to talk to Frank. I don't think he had any frigging idea how upset I was. Well, maybe he did because he finally called me and we had a nice talk. He has a nice voice.
I wrote him the following email after we talked.
Will Waters <email@example.com> Sat, Aug 30,
Frank u made my WHOLE WEEKEND!!!! Thank u ! Max ran off and I gotta go find him . Love ya bro! Will n Max! Woof! Ha!
frankf4321s <email@example.com> Sat, Aug 30,
To: email@example.com
Nice to know I made your WHOLE weekend.
I've thought about the church thing and I think you should talk to your parents and let them know that they can't let the asshole scapegoat you by implying that you did something wrong. Remind them of the locked door.
These are only suggestions of course, but insurance never hurts. I don't think your dad would let him get away with it. But it never hurts to make sure.
Is he doing in front of the whole congregation at a regular service? If so, that's a public place so it would be harder for him to do that. I guess if he was going to sow lies, he'd have done it in private.
Hope you found Max?
I'm glad we got a chance to talk. And when I say I don't want you to become dependent on me, all I mean is that you need to learn the skills necessary to be independent. I'll always be here for you so you don't have to worry about that.
Again, I'm glad I made your day. It meant a lot to me what you said about the part you liked the most about Knots were the reflections of the two boys as they thought about their lives. Those are the closest to my heart and come from my very soul and what I believe needs to be said. It's the Holy Spirit working through me. Boy are we lucky God loves us unconditionally.
God loves you and so do I.

found Max. The idiot was down the street in a neighbors garage watching them grill steaks out of the
rain! Ha! Silly dog! He'll
go anywhere he smells food and they know him, everyone does. What
a mooch!
I haven't hadda chance to talk to dad bout tomorrow cause they're still out with their bowling buddies, but I get the impression from what he said earlier and what he obviously did before, that he'll be making sure that nobody looks at me in the wrong light and that Todd doesn't get the chance to pass the Buck like grandpa says. Pretty sure pops wouldn't have popped the asshole in the face if he was gonna let Todd get up and make me seem responsible. My dad's made his mistakes in the last few years, but he seems to have a real resolve with asshole about this whole mess. Trust me.
Love ya bro! Both of us! Woof!!

How do I on my wifes phone – software iphone that is hidden
If you are reading this article then there is a good chance you are one of the numerous individuals each day who decide enough is enough. You are no longer willing to bear a pathetically brief laptop battery life which leaves you cowering around the plug socket that is nearest. After all, one of the most attractive features of a notebook is that it may be used in many different locations, on the move. If you laptop battery life is down to 15 minutes of charge yet all this flexibility and portability goes from the window. Laptop batteries are a consumable product and their life will decrease over time, as with most things. A brand-new replacement laptop battery is a great way of extending the life of an otherwise perfectly good machine, and can breathe new life into a tired laptop.

All laptop batteries provided by Notebook Electricity UK are of OEM quality and origin significance they'll feature these brands of cells and deliver the quality of functionality you'd expect.

A new opinion paper, published by the European Economic & Social Committee, has examined the way that work is changing. The paper points out the many forms of atypical work that are developing, and identifies associated social risks, like loss of jobs.
Digitalisation is an accepted inevitability within the EU, with many initiatives, such as the Digital Single Market, aimed at harnessing its potential economic power. But considering the potential downsides of digitalisation, the paper argues that these risks should be dealt with using coordinated efforts from all stakeholders.
Along with digitalisation, automation and robots are having an increasing impact on work. While they have the potential to boost the economy in an ageing society, they are also affecting jobs: it is, therefore, essential that dialogues on this point take place at an early stage before the problems come to fruition. The paper also notes that in the future, lifelong learning and professional training will be a necessity for everyone, but those long-term developments, such as addressing the digital skills gap in youth populations, can best be tackled through general education.
