Actually it doesn't. One could conceivably be all-powerful but not exceptionally intelligent.
I told you the truth. You seem to think that God doesn't care for children. I'll have you knowthat none have departed against His will. A child is not accountable.A childs place is secure.
I know the truth. Jesus really was crucified.
Instead of reading the Bible with an open heart your missing the important details that will make more sense to you. Jesus is your answer to understanding the Bible. Following Him and trusting in Him. You need to know why. Jesus set the record straight about all other gods and the truth about the real God and what He desires.
Quote from: 12 Monkeys on November 04, 2010, 10:39:07 PMweakness is the same as sin is it not?You have the "choice" not to do it or the choice to "sin"I've already admitted that I'm a sinner. I'm not playing a fake evangelist and trying omake you believe that I'm perfect.

The reason you say this is because you do not want there to be a God.
It has nothing to do with anyone else but yourself.
If God were to exist ( and He does) , it's going to be a rude awakening for you.
You do not experience the love of God in your life because you do not know who He is. Your not even willing to compromise. If your happy with believing that, then who is going to change your mind? It starts with you. If you feel that you have honestly sought God with no results, who to know other than God and yourself? Only you know within yourself what the answer is.
Being a Christian, I've made my decision. That decision offers no compromise; therefore, I'm closed to anything else.
Aaron,Slightly wandering here, but I can't remember a time when I seriously searched for God? Either that, or I'm suppressing or forgetting it. I was young while in the control of Christian mind delusion, so I might be mistaken. It seems strange to me to be talking to atheists who truly wanted to find God. I can't help but wonder how that must feel?
While I was in therethe doctor tried to secretly put me under hypnosis.
I remembered him saying,"you have beenchosen by God." Laughing and shaking his hand vigorously. It freaked me out.
For years this bothered me. I got out, still brokenhearted of my past girlfriend. I was temted to say a spell to get her back. I did. She came back. I asked God to forgive me, no answer.
We eventually got married, have kids, and still are to this day.
I was already an alcoholic with a addiction to porn.
I immediately got down and prayed.At that very moment a rushing storm blew in. So strong that it blew tree limbs of the treesall over town. There wasn't any expected storm in the area per the weather forecast. I stoodup, I tried to say to the Lord, that I thought that it was ok because you would forgive me.My thinking was clearly wrong. Before I could even utter a word. It thundered so loud right above my head. The storm lasted for 10 minutes. Then it was gone. The Lord made His pointto me. I was wrong. It's been four years now. I have not used the Lord's name in vain since.
The Lord teaches humility.
Alzael, I might take up on that offer, but what do I get in return?
Read this with an open heart, Libman,Edit: removed for lack of civility and class.Have a wonderful day.
I' not a preacher or an evangelist. I just thought that some of you would like toknow that patience and persistence is rewarding.
I also have a copy talk about crazy books. And I bought at a Waldens
Very similar results can be gotten from a jug of milk
Religions need books because they don't have gods.
some people do and some don't. I remember really searching for god and I still occasionally do. It feels very disappointing and, in my experience, you really have to get over thinking that there is something wrong with 'you' because all of the other people supposedly see the emperor's clothes. it takes a while to realize they don't any more than you do.
You believe evolution and there is no evidence for that. Where is the fossil record of a half man half ape. I've only ever heard about it in reading.
If you could have walked in my shoes the past 30 years of my life, maybe you could understand me a little better and why I say the things that I have.I would also like to say that I have not walked in your shoes either. I don't know your personal experiences in your life.
No, I voluntarily removed them.
I've been informed that this forum may not be a forum for a person like me.
I sincerely hope that you guys find what it is your looking for in life.
May God truly bless you,
The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one

How To Become A Clinical Laboratory Tech in Arizona
In order to qualify for Laboratory Technology jobs in Arizona, you should compare all available technical schools in your target area, as well as consider taking some of your courses online. Check with each nursing school below for assistance with certificate program requirements, degree prerequisites, and class registration. You may request information from several different schools below, without making a commitment.
To prepare for Laboratory Technology careers in Arizona, you need to complete a technical education in your specialty area, as well as consider taking part of your required courses online. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? Accredited engineering programs, combined with a brief internship or prior work-experience, offer a great return on your engineering education. Check with the clinical lab tech department for course registration deadlines, and engineering program requirements.
Both technicians and technologists perform tests and procedures that physicians and surgeons or other healthcare personnel order. However, technologists perform more complex tests and laboratory procedures than technicians do. For example, technologists may prepare specimens and perform detailed manual tests, whereas technicians perform routine tests that may be more automated. Medical laboratory technicians usually work under the general supervision of medical laboratory technologists or laboratory managers.
Certification of medical laboratory technologists and technicians is required for licensure in some states. Although certification is not required to enter the occupation in all cases, employers typically prefer to hire certified technologists and technicians. The aging population is expected to lead to a greater need to diagnose medical conditions, such as cancer or type 2 diabetes, through laboratory procedures. Prenatal testing for various types of genetic conditions also is increasingly common. Medical laboratory technologists will be in demand to use and maintain the equipment needed for diagnosis and treatment. Beyond major requirements within the clinical lab tech department, you may consider Southern Adventist University statistics program as a complementary elective.

McPherson High coach Chris Strathman had a moment at the end of the third quarter of the Bullpups' 53-38 Class 4A semifinal win over Paola Friday night that could be considered deja vu.
McPherson High coach Chris Strathman had a moment at the end of the third quarter of the Bullpups' 53-38 Class 4A semifinal win over Paola Friday night that could be considered deja vu.
As the buzzer sounded at the end of the third, McPherson (22-3) held a slight 38-32 lead over the Panthers. The attention, however, was on the figure of senior star Katelyn Loecker, who was prone on the floor after a scramble for the ball.
"It was the exact same situation as last year," Strathman said. "End of the third quarter, we call a full long. Last year she went out with a rolled ankle, this year a chin cut."
Loecker was led to the training room as the fourth quarter got under way to deal with the bloody cut, leaving the Bullpups looking a little rattled for the first three minutes of the final quarter.
"The first three possessions without her, we didn't have very good possessions," Strathman said.
Fortunately, Loecker returned with 5:35 left to go in the period, finishing with a game and tournament-high 27 points, guiding the Pups to their second straight championship appearance this afternoon.
Paola (19-5) jumped out in front early, thanks to the sharpshooting of sophomore guard Lyndsee Johnson.
A pair of Loecker free throws was followed quickly by a three from junior Abby Pedersen at the 2:24 mark of the first quarter that gave McPherson a 9-6 lead and sparking an epic 19-2 run that stretched through the rest of the first and into the first three minutes of the second quarter.
Paola 6-4 sophomore Tiana Moala would answer the Bullpup run by guiding the Panthers through a 9-1 run of their own, culminating in another Johnson three pointer that made it 23-15 McPherson with 4:30 showing on the clock.
Pedersen scored on another distance shot with 1:20 left in the half to give McPherson a 29-20 lead at the break.
Paola closed the gap even more in the third, getting to within five points with around six minutes left in the quarter.
Paola took advantage of Loecker's absence in the beginning of the fourth to get the score to 38-34 with 6:05 left in the game, but that would be as close as they were able to get.
McPherson would roll on a 15-4 run through the rest of the quarter, including a three-point dagger from Hannah Willems that all but sealed the win with 4:05 on the clock.
"That was huge," Strathman said of Willems' shot. "All that possession, you could see it coming. We knew she was going to have a wide open look because (Moala) was on her and she was just standing in the lane."
In addition to her 27 points, Loecker also had a game high nine blocked shots, four assists and four rebounds.
Strathman indicated that Loecker was going to get stitches for the cut on her chin and didn't show any signs of a head injury, so she should be set to go against Wamego.
Senior Hailey Ruder was 2-of-5 on three-point shooting for the night and finished with 11 points.
The win sets up a 1-2 battle for the championship with top-seeded Wamego, who advanced over Fort Scott 63-46 Friday afternoon.
Strathman sees potential problems with the Red Raiders in the forms of sisters Kaylee and Lanie Page.
"Both are 6-2," Strathman said. "They handle the basketball well, they rebound really well, they shoot well. Wamego is just a multi-talented group."
Tipoff from the Salina Bicentennial Center is set for today at 4 p.m. The third place games begin at noon.

A longtime restaurant has closed its doors in Neosho.
A longtime restaurant has closed its doors in Neosho.
Shoney's, 3001 Lusk Dr., Neosho, who opened in the late 1990s, has a sign posted on its front door. The note reads as follows:
"Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will be closing for business. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate each and every customer we have had over the years."
The Neosho Daily News contacted Shoney's corporate headquarters on Monday. In a prepared statement, Damon Davoudpour, director of marketing, said, via email, "The franchisee decided to close the Shoney's restaurants he operated in Missouri. Shoney's brand is very sad and concerned about the impact of the closure on the community.
Shoney's is grateful to the communities where we operate and we thank our guests for coming to Shoney's over the years. We are doing everything in our power to negotiate with landlords and the other relevant parties to reopen these restaurants."
Davoudpour did not state who the Neosho franchise owner was.
The Neosho location is not the only location in the Ozarks that closed. According to KTTS 94.7 FM in Springfield, two Shoney's in Springfield – on North Glenstone and on South Division – also in Rolla and Lebanon have closed.
KSPR TV, also in Springfield, identified the Springfield franchise owner as Brent Cotter, who refused to comment.
KSPR reported Tuesday that some employees have been stiffed on pay, with one former manager saying the chain owes her more than $1,200 in back pay.
The corporate office also noted that, "Shoney's will reopen the Branson restaurant in the spring of 2013."

BOISE — The University of Idaho's College of Agricultural and Life Sciences will seek an additional $1.5 million in ongoing state money when the 2014 legislative session begins next month.
If lawmakers approve the request, some of the money would be used to hire an additional potato researcher and a barley agronomist.
CALS lost $5.7 million in ongoing state funding after 2009 due to the recession and is on a five-year program to restore $5 million of that money, said Rich Garber, director of industry and government relations for the college.
He said the reduction in funding had a big impact on CALS, which includes the university's nine agricultural research and extension stations across the state.
"It had a significant impact," Garber said. "It impacted our operations and our ability to fill vacant positions."
The cuts took 22 percent out of CALS' ongoing budget, said Donn Thill, director of the college's agricultural research stations.
"They were devastating. I can't think of another word for it," he said.
The reduction in funding resulted in deep cuts at all the research stations and put the college in a situation where more than 90 percent of its state allocations were used for salaries and benefits.
"That left very, very little for operational expenses at the research and extension centers," said Thill, associate dean of research at CALS.
Of the additional $1.5 million in state funding CALS is seeking in 2014, $1.2 million of it would be used for operational expenses.
"There was an awful lot of deferred maintenance at the research and extension centers so there's a lot of catching up we're trying to do," Thill said.
Some of the money would also be used to hire two staff positions to support the potato and barley researchers.
CALS received an additional $1 million from Idaho lawmakers last year and $650,000 of that was used for operational expenses while $350,000 was used for one-time capital outlays, including a new feed truck for the dairy at UI's Moscow research station.
Getting much of the money that CALS lost after the recession restored has been a major priority for many ag groups, including Idaho Farm Bureau Federation.
"The research stations around the state have been vital to the development of agriculture and the continued improvement of agriculture in the state," said IFBF spokesman John Thompson.
"The scientists they have are top-notch and they're doing good work that specifically pertains to Idaho crops and the disease and other problems we have here," he added. "We think it's money well spent."

Cars 2 (US - BD)
Gabe has seen the first officially dreadful Pixar movie and fears for the future...
Four-time Piston Cup champion racecar Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) returns 'home' (does he have a home? has he been touring for six years?) to Radiator Springs for hard earned relaxation, and reunites with best friend Mater (Daniel Whitney), and girlfriend Sally Carrera (Bonnie Hunt). Soon after his arrival, McQueen is challenged by an obnoxious formula one car named Francesco Bernoulli (John Tuturro) to join the 'World Grand Prix', a three-part, multi-style vehicle race sponsored by 'Allinol biofuel', a new green alternative to fossil fuels. McQueen accepts the challenge, and takes his Radiator Springs buddies along as his pit crew, including Mater. Meanwhile, British spy cars Finn McMissile (Michael Caine) and Holley Shiftwell (Emily Mortimer) are hot on the trail of an evil group of lemons bent on destroying the Allinol using vehicles by weaponizing it (kind of). The elaborate lemon plot intersects with Mater in Japan, where he is mistaken for a US spy contact.
Like many of you, Cars was the first Pixar film I didn't like. I didn't like the characters, I didn't like the Doc Hollywood storyline, and, likely most importantly, I don't really relate to car culture all that much, which led me to not like the concept. Cars 2 is the first Pixar film I didn't see in theaters. This isn't only because I was left cold by the original film, but due to my aversion to the idea of Pixar cranking out sequels. Yes Toy Story 2 and Toy Story 3 ended up being great films, but the exception shouldn't be the rule, as the real value of the studio over the years has been in its original, imaginative concepts, not its technical achievements. If I'm going to care about the technical achievements, then I would've rushed out to see Cars 2 after reading that it broke records for digital rendering times. But I really don't care about that (well, obviously I care enough to have memorized that bit of trivia…). Pixar already did the whole talking car thing, an already unoriginal concept (there was a lawsuit and everything), and in my opinion the concept flopped. Why would they want to waste time that could've been spent on another Ratatouille or Up on continuing to dabble in the mediocre world of Cars?
Is it about the money? I doubt it. I'm sure Disney, who has reportedly made more than $10 billion (that's billion with a 'b') on Cars merchandise, approached the production from the 'more money, less problems' angle, but I tend to believe director/writer/producer/head of Pixar and Disney Animation/all around demigod John Lasseter when he says he made the film out of a love for cars and car culture. I think this is a deeper, practically Freudian issue on Lasseter's part. In the same way George Lucas seems incapable of moving beyond Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and all related Saturday morning serial elements, Lasseter is apparently obsessed with anthropomorphizing inanimate objects. Look at his filmography, specifically the films he had a hand in writing: The Brave Little Toaster (anthropomorphized household objects), Luxo Jr. (anthropomorphized gooseneck lamps), Tin Toy (anthropomorphized toys), Red's Dream (anthropomorphized unicycle), Knick Knack (anthropomorphized snow globes), all three Toy Story movies, and now the two Cars films, and their related shorts. Bug's Life stands as his only major release (along with the original Pixar short The Adventures of André and Wally B., which he had a hand in writing) that doesn't involve normally inanimate objects given life. Stop and think about how weird that is for a minute. It's kind of perverse, isn't it? And speaking of perversion, that beneath their innocuous, some would say boring, façades, the Cars films take place in a nightmare universe full of cars living human-like lives. Perhaps its because I find these films so boring that I notice how aberrant and weird this concept is. My friend Zach Walker once told me that Cars is a better movie if you pretend it's a sequel to Maximum Overdrive.
As expected, Cars 2 offers nothing new to the franchise except for bigger action set-pieces, and more lame car puns. The writers attempt to build upon their ridiculous universe by explaining the way things work, and 'modernize' the plot by basing it vaguely around an environmentally friendly theme. The bulk of the comedy is based around how 'amusing' it is to see cars carrying out human tasks, which means the idea of seeing a truck accidentally bideting himself on a car toilet appeals to you, you'll probably enjoy yourself. The rest of the comedy is based around the fact that Mater is an utter plebian that is confused by other cultures. This embarrasses McQueen, who is then permitted to act like the same ass he was in the first film. Besides the fact that this means the script does nothing to move their characters forward, which was the key element in making the Toy Story sequels work, it's almost impossible to find one's self wrapped up in any of this drama, because I can't imagine anyone in the audience enjoying Mater's hijinks. The only thing McQueen is doing 'wrong' is that he's spending any time with this ass in the first place. The environmental themes and subtext are borderline offensively backwards for much of the film. The prevailing moral is something along the lines of 'cheap cars and alternative fuels are evil'. In the end the film turns on a dime to a more pro-alternative fuel stance, but it felt like an easy-to-ignore afterthought to me (feel free to tell me I'm being unfair). I'm sure the bulk of Daniel Whitney's fan base will enjoy not having their belief system challenged, as the other, even more prevalent moral has something to do with ignorance being a virtue. Is it possible that the tree-huggers that made Wall-E would make this mistake? Apparently yes, especially when they don't care about anything outside of the non-comedy that is putting anthropomorphic cars in human situations.
The only story element that works in the film's favour is the secret agent angle. I don't mean to imply that the spy movie spoof is a good or creative choice, or that it fits the other half of the script at all, but it pulls the plot away from the stale characters and terrible jokes, and aims it towards mindless action scenes, which are well executed. In technical terms Cars 2 sits among the studio's greatest efforts, featuring incredibly detailed and realistic backgrounds and textures. The production fully embraces the epic scope of an international adventure, and the art design is at the very least very colourful, though again, there's really nothing creative about the approach. The races would've been more exciting if there was anything at stake other than McQueen's feelings, but the action animation is still very well executed, and the character animation effectively brings expressive life to reasonably realistic looking vehicles. Lasseter scores points for the new members of his cast, including Michael Caine, Emily Mortimer, Jason Isaacs, Eddie Izzard, and Bruce Campbell, then loses them not casting creatively, as every actor acts like themselves. This is especially disappointing because Pixar, unlike DreamWorks Animation, usually goes with the best voice for the character, not the most famous.
Cars 2, like, you know, every Pixar release, is a direct digital transfer. There was no film involved in the process, blah, blah, blah. This 1080p transfer looks like about $120 million, and doesn't disappoint the millions of viewers assuming it will look perfect. It's easy to see where all the money went while watching the film, which features dramatic textures, needle-sharp details, and rich, vibrant colours. Things like earth, sea water, grass, and clouds are pretty much photorealistic, and the comedically proportioned car characters feature similarly realistic surface textures. These textures a juxtaposed so well (Mater's rust and McQueen's shine, for example), and the more simplified characters stick out against the more industrial and natural backgrounds so successfully I assume the transfer would've worked well even in black and white. Fortunately I don't have to assume, because the film is enormously colourful, and these ludicrously eclectic hues are incredibly vibrant. Consistent colour themes are increasingly popular in modern movies, as are naturalistic palettes, so it's nice to give the set a nice workout with something more chromatically complex. Radiator Springs is pastel themed, featuring subtle, chalk-like gradations and contrasts. Tokyo is lit in neon, and set against deep black elements, which leads to vividly sharp and complex high contrast backgrounds. The baddie warehouse hideout is heavily shadowed, and features a generally more subdued palette, which helps push the frequency of fine textures.
There are no unpleasant surprises in the perfection of this DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack either. The main characters are all, as you may have guessed, vehicles of some kind, and so they all make mechanical, electric and gas-powered noises as they move, adding another level of aural stimulation to even stoic dialogue sequences. If characters move, there's an engine sound, and if they touch, there's a metal on metal sound. It's easy to overlook this part of the equation, which makes its subtly all the more valuable and impressive. Cars 2 is more or less an action movie, so there's plenty of aggressive bombast throughout the production as well. The race scenes, which are the film's bread and butter, match expectations set by live action car flicks like the Fast and the Furious series, including a lot of directional movement, and a wide spread of intricate noise. The LFE channel also gets a healthy workout thanks to the omnipresence of rumbling car engines and rolling rubber tires. The important dialogue is rarely lost in the expertly tweaked chaos, and the vocal effects are generally more naturally mixed than expected. Composer Michael Giacchino was clearly hired because of his work on Brad Bird's The Incredibles. This is especially apparent during the spy-themed and action based sequences. This music evokes John Barry's James Bond scores, including brassy horns, groovy organs, and clean electric guitars.
The extras begin with a commentary with director John Lasseter and co-director (whatever that means) Brad Lewis. Lasseter's interviews and commentaries always read as genuine, but he also has a tendency to come across as a bit of a sub-Walt Disney huckster. His tone is always sweet, and he has a fatherly quality to his speech, but there's always something at the back of my mind warning me that he's just a salesman, and I shouldn't trust him. I can't complain about the informative nature of this track, even if Lasseter just verifies my assumptions – he built the story around ideas he came up with while seeing other countries on the press tour for the first Cars, thinking it would be funny to stick Mater in international situations. The spy movie elements were apparently a movie-in-movie gag from the first film, and he thought it would be fun to mix that with his weak alternate concept. I also can't complain about his preparation for the track. Any time he pauses, Lewis is right in there to fill the gap with another bit of surprisingly non-repetitive info. The track falls apart when Lasseter explains the all too obvious subtext, but usually he even brings these brief trysts with boredom around to making a point about screenwriting. It's easy to understand why Lasseter has risen to such lofty heights at Disney and Pixar – his interests are infectious. Listening to the track made me wish I had enjoyed the film, and I'm sure adult fans will be happy to learn a little about the behind the scenes process.
Next up are two Pixar shorts, both of which are unfortunately based on existing properties. Hawaiian Vacation (5:50, HD) features the post third film Toy Story gang attempting to relax while new owner Bonnie and her mother take a vacation in Hawaii. Ken and Barbie try to sneak along, but only make it into Bonnie's bedroom. The other toys take pity and make up the bedroom to look like a tropical wonderland. It's cute, the producers somehow managed to score the entire cast to voice it, and the last gag before the credits made me laugh out loud. Air Mater (5:20, HD) is less cute. It sees Mater visiting a town of planes, and obnoxiously learning to fly. It's pretty much an elongated ad for Disney's straight to video Planes feature. The disc also features trailers for other Disney and Pixar releases.
Toy Story 3 proved my instinctual fear of unnecessary sequels wrong, but this meager effort has strengthened my fear of future sequel projects, namely Monster University. Cars 2 isn't just Pixar's weakest film, it's the studio's first flat out bad film. I'm glad critics were harsh on it, because maybe it means John Lasseter, a man no longer concerned with making a quick buck, will step back and realize he's wasted the studio's time on a vanity project. Instead of wasting your time watching Pixar slumming it, why not watch that other kid-friendly, and hyper-colourful racing movie – The Wachowski's Speed Racer? Speed Racer features better characters, smarter subtext, and action scenes that feature thematic weight. It was also a flop, and could use some attention. The more attention we move away from Cars 2, the less likely they'll make a Cars 3, and the less likely we'll have to suffer another year without a creative and moving Pixar picture. But assuming you are able to get some kind of enjoyment out of this mess, feel secure in the fact that this disc features a brilliant 1080p transfer, and a bombastic DTS-HD MA soundtrack.

Thank God. I thought I was the only one who hated this movie. The best thing about this is the Giacchino score and the usually brilliant Pixar animation. Everything else is awful.
Now, about "Monsters University" -- I'm actually looking forward to that one. It's not a sequel and neither is Lasseter directing it, but next year's "Brave" is one to look out for. Hopefully that will revive Pixar's streak of moving, original films.

I'll second that Speed Racer recommendation. It never fails to put a dumb grin on my face for 2.5 hours.
Haven't tried to watch Cars 2 yet, but I'll give it a shot sometime if I don't have to pay for it.

I'll read the whole review later vut yeh this film was awful, too much mater and not enough of anything else. Pure boredom is all I can say about this film. I acutally liked the first one although many regard it as one of the weakest too.

Compared to other Pixar films, I think Cars requires an extra large helping of innocence for the viewer to buy into their universe.

I liked the first one on repeat viewings (but then I love Doc Hollywood), this second one is simply an extended toy advert. Granted the toys are very cool but that really is all it is. Oh and spoofing the spy genre. So over it.

As a huge fan of Cars 1 (which I put alongside The Incredibles as Pixar's best), I was deeply appalled by the undeniable straight-to-video character of this sequel. Ironically, I've recently read that Disney set up a division just to produce straight-to-video sequels for their classic cartoons...
...I can't help thinking John Lasseter assigned Cars 2 to them.

I hate how people say "Cars 2" was bad. It definitely is the least-impressive Pixar film, but as a whole, it was entertaining and fun. I love the original film, but also think that Disney might've had more to do with this than Pixar. I don't think Pixar would pose the idea to crank out a sequel to one of their least-impressive films box office wise.

I concur on the SPEED RACER recommendation. The whole movie works incredibly well, but the narrative structure of the first 15 dazzling minutes is superb, and the ending packs quite an emotional punch.
One of the most unfairly underrated gems from the last few years.
As for CARS 2, after boring myself to death with the first one, I feel so uninterested on its sequel that I can hardly imagine myself even giving it a rental spin.

I just now realized I'd rather watch Gnomeo and Juliette again than Cars 2.

I watched it today and enjoyed it. I liked the first one more but the second kept me entertained.

First off, Mater was played Larry the Cable Guy, not Daniel Whitney.
I actually thought "Cars 2" was much better than the first film but not as good as some of the Pixars. I still loved it as much as the other Pixar films, but it's definitely not as good as "Toy Story 3." I actually thought "Cars 2" was more watchable than "Gnomeo & Juliet." "Gnomeo & Juliet" sucked.

|Sticky Tag:
Merge automake into head
- Update to automake 1.10 - Add libjpeg check - Fix define names for libgd in code
Changes to use automake
Fix the configure script to detect gd-2: The mystery is solved, I think. The problem seems to be a bug in the GIF support of gd-2.0.33. I didn't look into it further because CvsGraph was configured to output PNGs and shouldn't have been outputting GIFs in the first place. The reason it was outputting GIFs was a bug in CvsGraph's configure script which causes CvsGraph to be built without PNG support.
Implement selection of png compression level with image_compress and enable interlacing (progressive load) for both png and jpeg images with image_interlace.
Add a configure check for sys/wait.h so that Windows/MingW should compile without editing cvsgraph.c.
- Added drawing of partial trees. You now can select a subtree based on a revision number, branch number or symbolic tag to show only that part of the tree. New config option branch_subtree selects which part is shown. If the subtree is empty, then the whole tree is shown. - Most error and warning messages are now displayed in the graph, instead of being written to stderr. This enables you to see an image eventhough errors might be present. The old method would generate a corrupt image. New configuration options include msg_color and msg_font to control the looks of it. Messages are always printed at the bottom of the image. - Fixed a bug in the folding code where subtrees would not fold correctly. - Added diff links in the map-generation for detected merges so that you can get the differences in merge-operations. The options map_merge_href and map_merge_alt must be set accordingly.
Fix the sizeof(void *) vs sizeof(int) problem. Now look for int, long and long long in configure.
Add rev_maxtags config to limit number of tags per revison box Hopefully fix configure.in (finally?)
Hopefully fixed configure problems Prepared new release 1.3.0
- Fix order of libraries - Add auto-addition of libs when gifs are missing
- Added a new version of auto_stretch. It seems to work better bit it still needs improvement (a lot) - Added TrueType support. This solves also a problem of missing libraries if libgd needs -lttf or -lfreetype.
Update configure to check for getopt.h which does not exist on Solaris 8.
Fixed the configuration on IRIX. This was actually a bug in the --with-xx definitions and that messed up about everything. Now CvsGraph runs on IRIX with the GNU buildchain installed.
Updated configure to accept separate include/lib dirs for gd
Major update of the code. - Complete new method of getting the revision structure by directly reading the rcs/cvs file. This should also speed things a bit because no external program needs to be called anymore. This also means that "remote-graphs" are no longer a possible extension of the program. But, who cares. - Implemented branch-kerning to save place. The images are now much smaller in width, dependent on the settings of the exterior margins. - Fixed disjoint braches by reading the structure direct from the rcs/cvs file. The revision/branch structure is no longer determined from the revision numbers, but solely from the rcs/cvs file structure. - Fixed display of branches with no revisions attached to them. These only have a tag describing the new branch.
Updated configuration with config header
Start to use autoconf. This makes detecting old/new libgd easier. Also a bit more portable.
This form allows you to request diffs between any two revisions of this file. For each of the two "sides" of the diff, select a symbolic revision name using the selection box, or choose 'Use Text Field' and enter a numeric revision.

Hills Have Eyes: 2 Movie Box Set, The (UK - BD RB)
Reviewer Marcus Doidge takes a dirt road and ends up in the hills on Blu-ray
Back in 2006, The Hill Have Eyes joined the wave of classic old school horrors to get the modern remake treatment and the original creator Wes Craven even went along for the ride with writing duties.
Bob Carter (Ted Levine), a retired police detective, is travelling with his wife Ethel Carter (Kathleen Quinlan), daughter Brenda (Emilie de Ravin), son Bobby (Dan Byrd), eldest daughter Lynn (Vinessa Shaw), her husband Doug (Aaron Stanford), their baby daughter Catherine (Maisie Camilleri Preziosi), and even the family dogs, Beauty and Beast, as they all drive cross country for Bob and his wife's wedding anniversary. With only their Jeep and a caravan, they make the most classic of horror bad decisions and take that dreaded wrong turn. Due to some foul play by the locals the Carter family soon get cut off from civilization, fighting for survival as they become the play things of the atomic mutated family who use those ominous hills to prey on passersby.
At the time I made the mistake of writing this one off as yet another one of those glossy remakes of a horror classic that just didn't need to be made. It looked to be much of the same nonsense and yet another twist on the Texas Chainsaw Massacre set up. Thankfully this remake came with a hell of a lot more than I ever expected. This came with the nasties in a big way and re-watching it for this release reminded me just how much I like it.
The movie by no means re-invents the wheel. In fact this is all pretty standard stuff for the genre, but what it does, it does very well. I think the fact the victims here are a family helps a lot. They are dysfunctional and believable and they really get you on board, especially when everything starts getting messy… and it really does get messy. The slow build up to the big nasty fallout does just enough to set you up for how grim this all gets. The attack on the entire family that comes around the midway point of the movie is truly the stuff of nightmares and considering that it's a horror movie that actually delivers on some really horrific imagery and some genuine stomach turning events, I'm surprised this one doesn't get more kudos. In fact, because of this gruesome set of events you are totally rooting for Doug when he ventures out to find his kidnapped daughter rather than thinking 'WTF are you doing?' like you do in most horror movies.
I just adore the last act of this movie. It's so rewarding to see one of our victims believably take control of the situation after slowly working out what's been going on here. The Hills Have Eyes' multiple attacks on the entire family may be enough to turn people away, but I think it really adds a lot of weight to the closing scenes and it's almost a release to see Doug taking down deformed freaks like it's going out of fashion. The blood levels step up, the revenge element feels totally justified and the setting being an atomic town full of some memorable nasty baddies is just iconic stuff.
This remake is actually one I consider very worthy of the effort and I'd also consider it a horror that stands out amongst its very crowded field. It's well structured, it actually delivers on the scares as well as the gore and the payoff is just horror greatness.
Then they made a sequel…
The sequel to the remake (which is not a remake to the original's sequel) picks up in Sector 16, the same atomic test site from the first movie, but this time instead of a family going off track we follow a group of National Guards in training who find themselves being taken out one by one by the hill dwelling mutants, who reside within the long abandoned mines.
This outing was written by Wes Craven and his son Jonathan and it really doesn't live up to the previous instalment at all. For starters it's sort of inspired by the current war in the Middle East, or so Craven mentions in one of the features anyway—showing us the big brave, armed American soldiers running round the rocky desolate hills being taken out by people that we assume will be a walkover. It's a tenuous link at best to be honest, mainly because the soldiers involved are so damn inept and show no professionalism at all, despite the bravado on display. These god-awful characters are written like teenagers on a day trip that have taken the clichéd wrong turn and have to fight for survival when they find themselves amongst a family of mutants. Y'know like in most mutant inbred freak related horror movies as opposed to the focused military-folk using their training to save lives which they are supposed to be.
Out of the bunch of National Guards, who are mostly made up of stereotypes, there are really only a few that get fleshed out beyond their allocations of the angry one, the Spanish one, the cool one and so on. The main focus here (and the character originally written to be the Emille de Ravin character from the original, who after the events of the first film joined the army to get over the trauma) is Amber (Jessica Stroup), who really is too damn cute to be a solider. I'm not saying there aren't female soldiers out there who are this good looking, but remember this is a movie in which she is essentially the lead and she didn't get cast for her acting skills. Backing her up right till the bitter end is Napoleon (Michael McMillian), whose only real character trait is that he doesn't really fit into or even like being a soldier, which begs the question 'why are you even in the National Guard in the first place?'. Everyone else is cannon-fodder. Some make the most of what they have to work with, but it's all very one-note and plays the usual trick of covering a weak screenplay with a lot of hurling verbal abuse at each other.
The Hills Have Eyes 2 is essentially a very typical horror sequel. It doesn't break any ground or progress the story anywhere. It just ups the gruesome and attempts variations on the previous instalments events and in this case with varied results. The opening birth/murder scene immediately makes you feel uneasy and really is a effective way of setting a mood (even if it's not the actual mood of the movie) and there are a number of effective but ultimately forgettable graphic killings dotted throughout the entire runtime but none of them feel exciting or anything more than the next stomach turning event to relieve the humdrum of this silly little bunch of soldiers blindly bouncing their way through a massive horror cliché.
This is everything that sequels shouldn't be—lazy, repetitive and about as subtle as a brick. It's totally watchable and never outstays its welcome but it never feels as though out as the first film and is a sharp downturn in the wannabe franchise.
The transfers for both movies share much in common. They are both bright and colourful in the desert sun that beats down on the characters but both have issues with detail. At first glance both movies look to be a good transfer but on closer study the detail in the HD image that we've all come to expect from a naturally lit outdoor film just isn't quite there.
Night shots and darker exterior shots are underwhelming. There's a lot of grain and the darkness really shows off the lack of real HD detail. Of course it's all still head and shoulders over what standard def provides, but this is not a transfer that is consistent enough to be considered a true representation of what HD can do.
The wider open space shots have a hazy feel and quite a wash of grain in places and while the sequel just takes the edge, probably because it's a slightly newer movie, they are both just that little bit shy of being impressive.
Very much a modern horror affair with both movies' DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1. Clear, crisp dialogue, fairly limited amounts of atmospheric sound and then boom, a scare knocks you out of your seat. Both sound mixes do a grand job at doing what horror is known for and both come with quite a lot of that jump out of your seat power when they want to.
I found the mix on the second movie to be a bit weaker in the action scenes. There was a lot of emphasis on the music in the scenes and the dialogue and sound effects felt a little muted but this may have been a stylistic choice over a mix issue as the technique was used purposely in the opening scenes.
The first Hill Have Eyes is a pretty lackluster effort besides the two commentaries, the first of which is from director Alexandre Aja, producer Marianne Maddalena and writer Grégory Levasseur. It's quite lively and full of respect for the original The Hills Have Eyes as well as plenty of information on the remake. Secondly and probably a little more interesting is the commentary by Wes Craven and producer Peter Locke. This one has lots of great stuff on both eras of Hills movies and is just great to listen to considering Craven's horror status.
Other than that, there's a seven chapter 'Production Diaries' (11:21) collection of on-set camcorder moments, none of which are in depth, plus you get a set of trailers, one for The Hills Have Eyes as well as a few other Fox titles.
As for The Hills Have Eyes 2, this one drops commentaries and goes for featurettes. 'Mutants Attack' (9:47) is a brief background to where the freaks come from in the story and how they are different. There's a 'Birth of the Graphic Novel' (12:40), which is essentially a big advert for the prequel graphic novel which throws around fake hype for the fact it's a graphic novel, which is Hollywood's latest angle it seems—like it being a graphic novel suddenly makes it respectable. I haven't read it but it's just the corporate attitude towards the medium being the current 'in thing' that winds me up.
'Exploring the Hills' (12:41) is the blink and you'll miss it making of. It's totally watchable and has a few good on-set takes of a lot of the key moment in the movie, but twelve minutes is twelve minutes and that ain't long enough to be considered a making of in my book.
The best extra feature on offer here is the 'Fox Movie Channel Presents: Life After Film School With Wes Craven' (10:19), which is a short but sweet interview with Wes, in which he discusses the movie as well as the workings of getting films made—but again ten minutes is ten minutes.
There are also four deleted scenes (3:15) a 'Gag Reel' (3:39) and a hilarious alternative ending (0:56), which is worth checking out for its stupidity. Run 'way, run 'way'.
Fairly standard transfers for movies that should really be the best the horror HD catalogue should have on offer considering the brightly lit settings. There's an acceptable set of features but as the majority are on the less interesting of the two movies, this may not be a selling point.
One great movie and one weak sequel leads me towards recommending you just get the first movie and avoid the second… but with some good deals out there for the two pack, completists or the intrigued may want to go for the whole hog.

I think the original is pretty average to be honest. Certainly not one of Craven's better efforts. I know it's supposed to be some genre masterpiece, but it's pretty badly acted and not even particularly scary.
They were ok as remakes go but the original is the way to go - fancy new special effects will not remove the feel of the original - I hope you know what I mean
both of the films are ok!
i think the first one is way better, not that it's a good movie, and the sequel doesnt make it the worst movie of its year
but the first one is the best of both!!!

I agree about the second film being far weaker than 1. To be honest, it felt like it was a DTV production like Wrong Turn 2, that Fox decided to take a chance on theatrically. Most of the outdoor scenes looked like greenscreen shots. personally, I think THIS should have been banished to DTV, and WT2 should have gone theatrical... Rollins rocks.
Another strong review, Marcus!
Another strong review, Marcus!
yeah, i agree, Aja is EXCELLENT! he's one of horror movies heroes. he doesn't wuss out and give us fans a watered down PG-13 c**pfest. MIRRORS wasn't his strongest movie (not by a longshot) but i still liked it once i got used to the fact it was really a Keifer-needs-to-find-the-clues-to-solve-this-mystery type movie. i'm stoked to see Piranha 3D!!
The first movie was incredible, along with High Tension. I can't wait to see Piranha.
Tension was great at what it did for the most part but that twist was a real turkey
The running time for HHE 2 is.......1hr 29 minutes.

I haven't seen the sequel yet (I have it on pre-order, so I should receive it next week), but I thought the remake was very good. I really loved Haute Tension too, so Aja's okay in my book. I like his visual style. Even Mirrors looks like it's gonna be cool... The red band trailer I saw looks promising. I'm actually also very curious to see what he's gonna do with the Piranha remake.

I'll double check it this afternoon for you and post it back here.
Thanks for your reply, Marcus... I think the running time of both versions is almost the same... The unrated version is only a few seconds longer, so if you can get the exact running time that would be great...
I hadn't seen it before so wouldn't spot the diffrences if it were and as this was a review copy I didn't have the sleeve to see if it stated UNCUT.(I know the individual release doesn't state it.)
I can get the running time for you if that'll help to work it out.

I was wondering... Is Part 2 the unrated cut of the film?
I cant see myself buying a '2 Movie Box Set' for a film like this, which could end up having 2 or 3 more films in the series to come eg; Saw.
I'd love to get the first one here in the U.S. The 2nd one was pure s**t.

How To Become A Diagnostic Medical Sonographer in New Mexico
In order to qualify for Ultrasound Imaging jobs in New Mexico, you should compare all available technical schools in your target area, as well as consider taking some of your courses online. Check with each nursing school below for assistance with certificate program requirements, degree prerequisites, and class registration. You may request information from several different schools below, without making a commitment.
To prepare for Ultrasound Imaging careers in New Mexico, you need to complete a technical education in your specialty area, as well as consider taking part of your required courses online. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? The field of engineering requires either an associates degree for entry-level technical workers, or a bachelors degree for professional engineers. Check with the ultrasound technician training department for course registration deadlines, and engineering program requirements.
Diagnostic medical sonographers operate special imaging equipment that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the interior of the human body. The images and test results help physicians assess and diagnose medical conditions. In fact, ultrasound sonograms are often the first imaging tests performed when disease is suspected. The sonographer uses an instrument called an ultrasound transducer to scan parts of the patient's body that are being examined. The transducer emits pulses of sound that bounce back, causing echoes. The echoes are then sent to an ultrasound machine, which processes them and displays them as images used by physicians for diagnosis.
What specializations are available within diagnostic medical sonography? Obstetric and gynecologic sonographers specialize in imaging the female reproductive system. Many pregnant women receive sonograms to track the baby's growth and health. Obstetrical sonographers work closely with physicians in detecting congenital birth defects. Abdominal sonographers specialize in imaging a patient's abdominal cavity and nearby organs. Abdominal sonographers may assist with biopsies or other examinations requiring ultrasound guidance. Beyond major requirements within the ultrasound technician training department, you may consider North Hennepin Community College engineering classes online as a complementary elective.

Oh, we get treasures every day. They're treasures for somebody, anyhow. I don't know what to say about this "Recipes With Catsup" brochure, so I won't even mention that, moving on to some of the other goodies sent for the ornamentation of our Second Annual 25th Book Fair.
We've been doing very well on signed books lately, and I am again left puzzling over the values of the autograph market. I find that a Luciano Pavarotti signed book beats a Jimmy Carter, but that a signed copy of Anchee Min's Red Azaleas trumps them both. No real clue for me yet on what George Ryan's autograph will fetch.
From one of those much maligned donations of rummage sale leftovers we brought in half a box of manga (in English). These translated Japanese comics are fun to put out for sale (check both the Children and the Science Fiction sections) but they're a pain to price. I like it that each one reminds you you're reading the wrong way if you try to read it from left to right. But this does mean I have to price each of them twice: once on the first white page in the back, and once on the last white page in the front.
Remaining in Japan, we have half a boxful of reports and newsletters from the Glory Kindergarten and Training School, one of the farflung outposts of the Kindergarten Movement. The papers run from the late nineteenth century into the 1920s, and are accompanied by a small, inexpensive jewelry box in which the little cardboard boxes from jewelry have been used as beds for a tiny plastic baby doll. There's a story there, no doubt, but we let the buyer make it up after purchase.
And, of course, what every home needs is a rat calendar. Produced in 1976 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of a company that developed a breed of rats suited for laboratory testing, it includes twelve colorful artists' renderings of the jolly world of scientific rats. But wait! It also features a front cover which looks as if it has been chewed all the way around on three sides.
How many book fairs in Chicago, nay, in all of Illinois can boast such a variety?

Taking care of your propane tank is essential no matter where you live. Luckily they make propane tank covers to protect your investment and assure your tank is not damaged by the elements. Another reason people purchase these covers is to mask their tanks. Propane tanks are not always the most attractive thing to look at, and often they clash with the property's look and feel.
Many companies that manufacture propane tank covers are well aware of the fact that propane tanks are better concealed than left out in the open. Covers come in as many different patterns, materials, and designs as house siding. There are designer covers, covers that match a paint color, and even custom made covers to turn your propane tank that was once an eyesore into a centerpiece for the side of the house or deck.
Some people like to build foundations around their tank, but this can pose many problems from not allowing the tank to properly breathe, to problems getting to it to change the tank out or refill it. Propane tank covers are the best choice for most tanks. These covers are designed specifically for these tanks and have specific features that double as safety features. Some examples are air holes to allow the tank to breathe, others are waterproofing for wet weather. There are specific sized covers and covers that are one size fits all using a variety of options to resize the fitting.
The internet is full of sites that offer these as well as sites that will explain more details about the various propane tank covers available in Tyrone OK 73951. Some companies sell them and offer their own brand only, while other companies represent several different manufacturers. You're sure to find one for your tank that will protect your investment and convert your tank into a thing of beauty. Propane tanks are so common these days that it's easy to find a cover that you will be thrilled to use!

While some local Grinches may not have managed to steal Houma's Christmas, they did make off with some of the city's Christmas decorations — and kidnapped its baby Jesus.
While some local Grinches may not have managed to steal Houma's Christmas, they did make off with some of the city's Christmas decorations — and kidnapped its baby Jesus.
The infant figure disappeared from the manger scene near the Houma courthouse soon after Thanksgiving, said Ann Picou, Terrebonne Parish downtown development coordinator.
"This is something that's happened several times over the last couple of years," Picou said. "Last year our Joseph walked off at some point."
Picou said the parish had already spent its decorations budget on new lights to replace some of the aging ones, so there wasn't money to buy another babe in swaddling clothes.
"There was certainly no religious or political reason for us not having a nativity this year," Picou said. "We just didn't have a Jesus. We fully expect to have the manger scene out again next year."
Nationally, manger Jesuses seem to be common targets for those destined for the naughty list — Google News showed more than 3,700 news reports of manger scene thefts this year.
"Baby Jesus thefts" are apparently common enough to merit their own article on online encyclopedia Wikipedia.
Picou said thefts of parish holiday decorations aren't new. She said some lights placed on local bridges also vanished.
She chalked up the thefts to bored kids.
"They probably don't have any ill will or anything," Picou said. "It's probably just funny to them."
Still, Police Chief Todd Duplantis said Santa's not the only one watching out for holiday heists — stealing Christmas lights is considered theft, the penalties for which vary based on the value of the stolen goods.
Duplantis said police receive complaints of stolen decorations fairly frequently.
"It can be anything from lights to those inflatable things you see to parts of the nativity scene," Duplantis said.
Most stolen decorations cost less than $500, which means the thief could face a misdemeanor fine of up to $1,000 and up to six months in jail.
"We take it seriously, just like we do any other theft," Duplantis said.

This museum contains the collection of the canon Angelo Maria Bandini, an 18th c. man of letters, the librarian of the Biblioteca Marucelliana and the Biblioteca Laurenziana.
The Museum is distinguished by a strong presence of Florentine and Tuscan artists of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, the so called "Italian Primitives": the Master of the Stories of the Cross, Taddeo and Agnolo Gaddi, Nardo di Cione, and Lorenzo Monaco are only the best known painters of the gold background panels that make Museo Bandini unique.
No less important are offerings by masters of the fifteenth century: from Neri di Bicci to Jacopo del Sellaio (with his splendid Triumphs) and a delicate Madonna and Child produced in the workshop of Botticelli. The collection contains also sculptures, included many items of the school of the Della Robbia.

Description: The kiritsuke gyuto is modeled after the French pattern chef's knife. Longer and slimmer than the santoku, it is suited to preparation of meat and may be used as a general purpose chef's knife. The triangular tip results in a detail oriented, yet stronger tip than the gyuto. The long blade is needed for the slicing motion required to cut meat and the tall profile provides plenty of finger clearance over a cutting board. The long, straight spine is perfect for moving foods across a cutting board after chopping. The kiritsuke gyuto is a perfect choice to grab whether slicing onions, chopping parsley, or dicing meats.
The beauty of the SLD line by Yoshikane is matched only by its performance. Each knife is meticulously hand forged by Mr. Tsuneo Yoshida and his two nephews to create a lasting work of functional art. These knives have quickly become a favorite at Epicurean Edge -- both for their feel and balance, as well as exceptional edge holding and performance.
The two tone blade is produced by two different etching processes creating a dramatic high contrast between the Kiriba (blade bevel) and the flat of the blade. This creates a smooth surface for the blade to slide through material and a subtly uneven surface to help release foods being sliced. The blades are comprised of a hard inner SLD stainless steel core clad in stainless steel damascus (suminagashi). Because SLD is a relatively low chromium stainless steel, we recommend drying the knife after use. The mesmerizing suminagashi pattern flows freely on both sections further enhancing the unique styling of this line.
The hand forged blade features a rounded Mune (spine) and choil for secure, comfortable grip. The handles are made from enju wood with ferrules of very rare blond buffalo horn. The ambidextrous handles are octagonal at the top and rounded at the base, resulting in a comfortable, elegant shape that is pleasing to the eye and hand.

Not even a 20-1 run in the second quarter could stop Oak Ridge Lady Wildcats coach Kerra Jackson from critiquing her team's 77-41 win over Knoxville Central Tuesday.
by Robert Holder
KNOXVILLE — Not even a 20-1 run in the second quarter could stop Oak Ridge Lady Wildcats coach Kerra Jackson from critiquing her team's 77-41 win over Knoxville Central Tuesday.
Jackson used words like "sloppy" and "no energy" after the game to describe the rest of the contest with the Lady Bobcats for good reason though.
"It reminded me of last year," said Jackson bringing up the first loss ever for Oak Ridge to the Central Lady Bobcats — a 41-43 stunner. "They played well in the second quarter."
"In the first quarter, they came out with no energy. Third quarter, we came out flat. Not taking anything away from Central, but we looked like we were trying to play slow as well."
Oak Ridge (12-8, 9-3) watched their 43-17 halftime lead cut to 23 with an 11-2 run to end the third but it wasn't as much a defensive issue as it was an offensive issue.
"We missed way too many layups," Jackson said. "You expect to make wide open layups most of the time. Our focus was not where it needed to be tonight.
"It was not fun to watch."
The fourth quarter saw the Lady Wildcats comeback to form though — outscoring the Central (1-18, 1-9) 21-8 in the final eight minutes.
Seven Oak Ridgers scored on the night. The usual suspects — Whitney Mitchell, Savanna Johnson and Kendra Holmes — led the way.
Johnson had a season-high 20 points, tied for the most in the game with teammate Mitchell, and has been shooting well as of late.
Holmes was right behind them with 19.
Mitchell and Johnson were a big part of the second-and fourth-quarter rallies accounting for 28 of the team's 48 points in the two periods.
Holmes kept things steady in the third with eight of her points.
"It would be nice to get 60, 70 from five players," Jackson said.
"Then you wouldn't know who to guard. But if we can spread it to three kids, that's a good night for us," he said.
Central was led by post player Ashley Hines with 18. Hannah Bradshaw had 11.
Oak Ridge got a boost from Campbell County as they defeated the Powell Lady Panthers at Powell Tuesday to move them behind the Lady Wildcats.
Oak Ridge will host the Cougars and Lady Cougars on Friday at Wildcat Arena starting at 4:30 p.m. with a girls junior varsity matchup. The varsity girls start at 6 p.m. and the varsity boys begin at 7:30 p.m.
