"The Frozen Ground" is a grim, undistinguished procedural thriller based on the true case of serial killer Robert Hansen who, from 1971 to 1983, abducted, raped and murdered at least 17 young women in Alaska. Although writer-director Scott Walker seems committed to not overly exploiting his lurid subject matter, the movie is just too dreary, disjointed and generically creepy to be persuasive.
The story, set in 1983, finds upright Alaska state trooper Jack Halcombe (Nicolas Cage), reportedly an amalgam of several real-life characters, struggling to bring Hansen (John Cusack) to justice amid the apathy of other local investigators. Hansen, meanwhile, is pursuing 18-year-old prostitute Cindy (a game Vanessa Hudgens), his one victim who got away, while Halcombe is concurrently trying to protect and — awkwardly — befriend the erratic, messed up girl, who's vital to catching Hansen.
Because we already know whodunit, the tension largely relies on how the elusive, deceptively meek Hansen will finally be cornered. And, although the film does gain momentum just prior to that showdown, much that comes before is so confusingly structured and choppily edited that viewers may have already checked out.
As for those old "Con Air" co-stars Cage and Cusack, it's hard not to feel they're on paycheck patrol; these are depressingly bloodless turns. Radha Mitchell, as Halcombe's flip-flopping wife, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson (one of many producers here), playing a bad-wigged pimp, and Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, authentic as a Brooklyn babe, also appear.

For the last 10 years, San Francisco Tennis Club (SFTC) teaching professional Roberto DiGiulio has been scouting the city's Mission and Golden Gate playgrounds and even the public courts at Hunter's Point, a tough low-income housing project in the city's south side, for kids who just might become outstanding tennis players one day. DiGiulio has helped more than 300 youngsters during this time, providing them coaching and club access that would cost the kids' parents as much as $6,000 per year if it were not offered free of charge.
"We have launched a junior development program for the most promising kids already playing in free neighborhood playground programs run by the city and Youth Tennis Advantage (YTA), a non-profit organization that provides coaches for public facilities," says DiGiulio. "These kids have plenty of room to grow, and we want to open their eyes to the bigger world of tennis opportunity. Right now, many of them are in high-risk lifestyle situations, but we can nurture them. Our efforts are turning heads in the city."
Two of DiGiulio's best players today are Alexon Inocencio, a 13-year-old boy who started playing at Mission playground, and is now ranked No. 7 in his age group in Northern California; and Yulia Rivelis, a 15-year-old junior who began playing in Golden Gate Park, has a 4.0 grade point average and is the No. 1 player on her University High School team. DiGiulio says the youngsters he helps already love tennis and he just provides the opportunity to cultivate that love and improve their skills. They have withstood the playground peer pressure that favors sports like basketball, baseball, and football long enough to develop recognizable court skills and no longer have to drop the sport for lack of opportunity to keep improving. Jesse Inglerham, whom DiGiulio discovered as a 14-year-old at the Mission playground, is now ranked No. 5 in Northern California and is playing at the University of California at Santa Barbara.
With the help of SFTC Director of Tennis Tom Edlefson and teaching pro Billy Ball, juniors take lessons and play matches on the club's recently renovated 12 rooftop courts. Edlefson, Ball, and DiGiulio personally introduce them to older SFTC juniors who act as mentors. SFTC adults are also encouraged to "adopt" a DiGiulio junior and play matches with them and their family members.
Could the SFTC's program become a model for tennis outreach to other U.S. playgrounds? According to Kim Perino, club general manager, there certainly was no lack of opportunity for his private club to identify with the right community group.
"Several of our board of governors members, Lena Grotz (founder of the YTA), Ed Osgood and Mike Price are also on the YTA board. We have hosted YTA fundraisers at the club for more than 10 years and in 1999 established club policy of donating $200 monthly to YTA," says Perino. "We decided last year to expand our support by adding Roberto to YTA's existing pro bono coach roster. It was this personal relationship that finally brought playground kids into our club, and isn't good-spirited play what tennis is about after all?"

Hertz will supply and maintain more than 1,000 vehicles equipped with Hertz On Demand car sharing technology as well as operate the CarPool booking system.
A wide range of vehicles at attractively priced rates are available at convenient locations for the employees of Deutsche Lufthansa and the company's partner firms at the airports in Frankfurt, Munich and Hamburg.
The agreement is to run for an initial period of three years.

Hertz On Demand offers Lufthansa and the airline's affiliate employees a 24/7 service all year round.
The technology-equipped vehicles can be picked up and returned at any time. After signing up to the service, staff can make their car reservations via the internet, a mobile webpage, or by an iPhone app.
The vehicles are unlocked using a Hertz RFID-enabled token that dispenses with the need for a key.

"With its unique car sharing technology, wide range of vehicles and 24/7 service, Hertz On Demand provides us with the right answer for the mobility needs of our personnel."

Since I had some left over cookie dough from the pie pops, and some time to kill today, I was wondering what I had that I could mix with it. I found butter, sugar (brown and regular, granulated), and cinnamon—all ingredients I needed for cinnamon rolls! So, I softened and rolled out the dough, and softened the butter and mixed it with the sugars and cinnamon. Spread the butter mixture on the dough, rolled it up, cut 1″ pieces, placed them in a cake pan (I didn't use my jelly roll pan because there weren't that many pieces, and put them in a pre-heated, 375 degree oven. (sounds good, right? and if you look at the picture, it looks like they turned out well, and people ate them so quickly that all I had time to take a picture of was the empty pan—but after reading the title of this entry, you already know this is not true!) After about 5 minutes, I started to smell the butter browning. (kind of a nutty smell) So, I checked on the rolls, and found that all of the butter had melted out of the dough. I could have been frustrated, and dumped the whole thing, but instead, I put the pan back in the oven, and finished baking the dough, about another 15 minutes. Overwhelmed by the delicious smell of butter and sugar, I quickly thought "I bet this would be good in some ice cream. Like brown butter ice cream, with little cinnamon cookies sprinkled in." So, I ran out, and got some Bryer's vanilla ice cream (now with 30% more REAL vanilla beans!) and put the softened ice cream in a bowl, and dumped in my buttery, sugary, cinnamony dough pieces, and used a rubber spatula to mix them together. Dipped a spoon in, tasted, and LIKED it!
Now, I don't have any fancy equipment, such as a food processor, or ice cream maker (but they are on my gift wish list—and my birthday IS coming SOON…) but these items would be useful for making the dough pieces smaller, and I would have liked to make my own ice cream, because I did go to pastry school, and I know how to make it, but especially because I am not the biggest Breyer's fan. (also realized I don't have a rolling pin-I just used my hands to press out the dough-no big deal, since it was a small amount.) Anyway, the end result is still good, and because I am such a huge fan of chocolate, I added some chocolate syrup, but the extra flavor was not needed. (she writes, as she dips her spoon back in the bowl for some more ice cream…) Lesson learned: what might seem like a complete baking FAIL may turn out to be something GREAT.
While I don't have a picture of the failed cinnamon rolls, I do have some pictures of the ice cream, and I am willing to share with you the recipe for the ice cream, and real cinnamon roll recipes, in case you want to make those instead of the failures-turned-good rolls.
First, the fail-rolls:
If your dough has been in the refrigerator or freezer (as in you didn't just make it), then you need to soften it. I did this by putting it in the microwave. Easy and quick. Then, like I said, I rolled it out, spread on the butter mixture, etc.
I used part of the recipe for the Mama's mini-cinis (below) to figure out the right butter-sugar-cinnamon ratio. I used 3 tablespoons of butter, about 1-1/2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar, and a dash of ground cinnamon (about 1/2 tsp if you are really into measuring what I like to call "the small stuff"—spices, vanilla, etc. that don't make much of a difference in a recipe, unless you put in TOO much.) After spreading the butter mixture on the dough, I rolled it up, cut 1″ pieces and placed them in the pan. 375 degrees. 15-20 minutes. I don't know exactly why, perhaps I was looking to soak up all of the butter that melted out, but I flipped over the baked dough. I used maybe a quart of ice cream. All I know for sure is that the label says 1.5 quarts, and there is some left, about enough for a good-sized bowl full. You'll know it's enough because You won't see any cookie pieces sticking out, it will just look like lumpy soft serve.
So, it was really easy to fix this baking fail. Just add ice cream!
Now, some of you might want the satisfaction of cinnamon rolls that never fail, but are really easy and quick to make, so I introduce to you Mama's mini-cinis. This is not a recipe from my mother, but someone else's, who decided to put this recipe up on the interweb.
Mama's mini-cinis:
2 (8 oz) cans refrigerated crescent rolls (I guess Pillsbury makes these)
6 TBS butter, softened
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup pecans (optional)
1 TBS sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1 TBS milk
1/4 tsp. vanilla or almond extract
1/8 tsp. salt
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Unroll crescent rolls, and separate each portion along center perforation to form 4 rectangles; press diagonal perforations to seal.
Stir together butter, sugars, pecans, and cinnamon. Spread over one side of each rectangle. Roll up jelly roll fashion, starting at long end. Gently cut each log into 6 (1″ thick) slices, using a serrated knife. Place rolls 1/4″ apart into 2 8″ cake pans. (can also use a jelly roll pan, but you want something with edges-do not use a cookie sheet.) bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden. cool 5-10 minutes. makes 2 dozen.
Stir together powdered sugar and remaining ingredients, drizzle over warm rolls. (of course, you could eat these with ice cream, too!)
note: to make slicing easier, place logs in freezer for about 10 minutes.

The season's first snowfall with accumulation, albeit minimal, has already claimed several vehicle accidents on Butler County roads this morning.
Fire and ambulance crews are at a pair of two-vehicle crashes with injuries in and Cranberry townships.
One person was still reportedly trapped in a vehicle about 20 minutes after a crash at 6:52 a.m. on Glen Eden Road in Cranberry, authorities said.
Cranberry Township EMS and volunteer firefighters are at the scene along with township police. A county dispatcher said at least one person was injured in the crash.
A short time earlier, two vehicles wrecked on West Eldorado Road in Parker Township. The accident call came into the 911 center at 6:27 a.m. One person was hurt.
Emlenton EMS and the Bruin Volunteer Fire Department were called to that crash that may have been caused by snow-covered roads.
Emergency crews upon reaching the accident scene called for the township road crew to salt the road due to treacherous conditions.
Shortly after 7 a.m., meanwhile,a vehicle reportedly slid off South Oliver Avenue in Zelienople and ended up in a cemetery. No injuries were reported.

If these lists are on separate captions, let alone separate slides, Captivate would naturally assume that they don't belong to the same list order.
Your method of hardcoding in the numbering is the only way I know to do it.
Once you've set up the numbering though, it should look fine. It's only a bit of extra work when creating the content, isn't it?
2. Re: Numbering and BulletsGeeky-G Jan 25, 2012 7:06 AM (in response to RodWard)2 people found this helpful
2000 slides and counting. 20 more projects to go. It seems as if this would be a common occurance and have some shortcut key to continue formating on the next page. It just makes for slow progress.
3. Re: Numbering and Bulletsbrightonjon Jan 31, 2012 12:55 PM (in response to Geeky-G)1 person found this helpful
You could do the numbering in Word then copy and paste into Captivate. I haven't checked that though.
But why do you want to format your content this way? What benefit are you trying to achieve?
4. Re: Numbering and BulletsGeeky-G Feb 2, 2012 3:03 PM (in response to brightonjon)
Work bings the numbering over and I then need to tab into place. This helps a little for futre projects. Thanks.
To answer your question. I am pulling from a powerpoint presentation and want to start fresh and not import. Import only brings in a picture of the screen and is blurry so I am retyping everything or copying and pasting. The power point refernces so legal material that extends between 5-20 pages and lists and bullets everything. The continuation on the new page(or 19 pages after) start over at 1 instead of continuing the format or numbering from the previous page. It would seem that this is something that would happen often and you should be able to start the numbering on the new page at whatever you want.
5. Re: Numbering and Bulletsbrightonjon Feb 3, 2012 6:21 AM (in response to Geeky-G)
Well, that's a start. I'm not sure I can think of a better way to get content like that in to Captivate.
On the wider issue, I don't want to start second guessing your choices for the delivery methods for your courses, but are you sure Captivate or even elearning is the best method for this content?
elearning generally doesn't really work that well for that kind of large scale information. My preference would be a good old pdf or html help document.
If you're using Captivate because you need to test you could always put the information in the pdf and just have the quiz in Captivate.
I'm not criticising your choice by the way; I don't know the background about the project. Just offering a different perspective
6. Re: Numbering and BulletsGeeky-G Feb 10, 2012 10:55 AM (in response to brightonjon)
I thank you for your comments. This is the very beggining of a large CBT project. The first section involves reading material and different sections for manuals.Captivate was declared the best tool to use for this project. Not all the courses contain this type of material and most will have several interactive parts. It was all original done in Authorware. Unfortunately, it was getting to time consuming trying to troubleshoot browser compatability issues and a change needed to be made. I do appreciate everyones comments and hope that i can be of help as I learn the product more.

Martin Landau, who won an Oscar in 1994 for supporting actor for his role in "Ed Wood," has died at the age of 89. He spoke to The Times seven years ago about his career and longevity in the entertainment business.
Martin Landau has worked with some of cinema's most accomplished filmmakers, including Alfred Hitchcock ("North by Northwest"), Francis Ford Coppola ("Tucker: The Man and His Dream"), Woody Allen ("Crimes and Misdemeanors") and Tim Burton ("Ed Wood").
But the 82-year-old Landau, who won the supporting actor Oscar for his uncanny performance as Bela Lugosi in 1994's "Ed Wood," doesn't hesitate to declare that, "I haven't been directed by anybody in 20 or 30 years. I come in with stuff about my character and I figure if they don't like it, they will tell me. If they don't tell me, I hit my marks, say my words and get the heck out. I know what my role is and how to fill that space and if they don't like what I have been doing they will say something."
Adds Landau: "They don't."
Landau certainly knew what his role was in his latest film, the romantic drama, "Lovely, Still," which opens Friday. The tall, lanky actor turns in a beautifully nuanced, poignant performance as Robert Malone, a lonely, elderly man who spends his days working as a bagger at a grocery store. Robert finds unexpected romance with the woman ( Ellen Burstyn) who has moved into the house across the street with her adult daughter ( Elizabeth Banks).
"The first two-thirds of the movie, if you cast 16-year-olds in it, you wouldn't have to change much of the dialogue," explains Landau on a recent afternoon in Beverly Hills. After acting for nearly six decades, Landau still possesses a passion and love for his craft that makes it a joy interviewing the veteran of such TV series as "Mission: Impossible," "Space: 1999" and more recently "Entourage."
Landau is also one of the executive producers of "Lovely, Still," which was written and directed by first-time feature filmmaker Nick Fackler, who is all of 25. When Landau first read the script, he liked it but thought it was "bumpy" and asked if the Omaha-based Fackler could fly to Los Angeles and meet him. "We went to Art's Deli and had a five-hour lunch," Landau says. "I said, it's a wonderful script but here is what the first act needs — all the attention has to build to the date, the second act is the joy act, everything is going well. That needs to be refined. The third act will take care of itself if we do this properly."
When Landau felt the script was 90% finished, Landau asked Fackler to send it to fellow Oscar-winner Burstyn ("Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore"). Burstyn and Landau are old friends and cut from the same acting cloth; she operates the East Coast branch of the Actors Studio with Al Pacino and Harvey Keitel; Landau and Oscar-nominated director Mark Rydell ("On Golden Pond") run Actors Studio West.
"I got a phone call from Ellen," Landau recalls, laughing. "She said, 'Marty, what the heck are we going to do in Omaha, Neb., for seven weeks?' So that was that."
Fackler reminded Landau a lot of Burton, who guided him to an Oscar and practically every other acting award, for his sympathetic, tragic and funny portrayal of "Dracula" star Lugosi. In the 1950s, the Hungarian actor was fighting a losing battle with drugs and alcohol and was appearing in the cut-rate, Grade Z films of Ed Wood ( Johnny Depp) including "Glen or Glenda" and "Plan 9 From Outer Space."
Landau recalls he was quite flip on the phone when Burton called about the part. "I got a call out of the blue, literally," he says. "The phone rings and I hear, 'Hello, this is Tim Burton.' I said, 'Oh sure, this is Thomas Jefferson. How are you doing?' I am certain it's a friend of mine doing a number. He said there is a script on the way and check out the part of Bela."
Half an hour later, Landau learned it really was Burton on the phone when the script arrived at his house. He quickly read the script and called Burton at home. "I said 'I love it. It's insane. It's wonderful.' "
The next day, the two met at Burton's office. Though Burton thought he was the only actor who could do Lugosi justice, Landau had his doubts. "It's a Hungarian morphine addict, alcoholic who has mood swings. That would be hard enough, but it has to be Bela Lugosi! I said I don't know if I can do this, but let's do some tests."
So makeup artist Rick Baker transformed Landau into the elderly Lugosi. Though the film was released in black-and-white, these tests were done in color. Burton looked at them first and thought "you are 50% Lugosi." But Landau thought he was "horrendous" capturing Lugosi in fleeting moments. Still, Landau was confident though he could pull it off.
"I said if I can do it 10 % of the time, I can do it 100% of the time. They have to accept me as Lugosi in the first five minutes or we don't have a film. It was not an impersonation ever for me. He had to be a human being."

Virginia pitchers have one complete game the last two seasons combined, a stretch of 116 contests. Chris Rowley, Army's almost-certain starter Friday versus the Cavaliers in the NCAA tournament, has completed 12 of 28 outings in the same two years.
In short, Virginia will face an accomplished, dependable and familiar workhorse.
Familiar because Rowley started a NCAA tournament game last season against the Cavaliers. Virginia dusted Army 9-1, roughing up Rowley for six runs in as many innings.
A 6-foot-2 senior, the right-handed Rowley doomed his own cause by walking five and hitting four batters. It was his sole defeat in an 11-1, All-American season in which he pitched to a 2.40 ERA, completed six of 15 starts and threw five shutouts.
Army competes in the Patriot League, which pales to the ACC's steady diet of top-25 opponents. But Rowley's numbers were too good to ignore, and this season he's been similarly effective with a 9-3 record, 2.68 ERA, six complete games in 15 starts and two shutouts.
"He's been very, very consistent in his career," Virginia coach Brian O'Connor said Tuesday. "Last year he was an All-American and had All-American kind of numbers. This year it looks like he's doing about the same thing.
"He doesn't walk anybody. Doesn't give up many home runs. He's got pinpoint control, he's got a good, sinking fastball, a slider. His velocity's not going to overpower you, although it's good. He's going to rely on contact and using his slider and two-seam fastball to get guys to hit ground balls. He looks like he controls the running game very well. He hasn't given up a lot of stolen bases this year."
O'Connor's right. Rowley has walked only 18 in 90.2 innings while allowing two home runs and eight stolen bases.
Rowley's been even better recently, winning seven consecutive starts since a loss to Navy. He's allowed only 11 earned runs in his last 54 innings and was MVP of the Patriot League tournament, in which he threw two complete-game victories.
Those tournament starts were eight days apart – the Patriot League semifinals and finals are both best-of-3 – and Rowley threw 124 pitches and 148 pitches.
So what happened last May in Charlottesville?
"We fortunately had a good approach against him last year," O'Connor said. "I think it was more a result of how we train our hitters. Not that we take a bunch of pitches but we really try and condition our guys to not swing at pitches off the plate, to be disciplined. I think it was more a matter of him just missing rather than someone who was really wild."
With more pitching depth than his Army counterpart, Joe Sottlolano, O'Connor has the luxury of leaning on his bullpen and not pushing his starters. Even at his dominant best, Virginia's Danny Hultzen didn't throw a complete game in 2011 en route to becoming the No. 2 pick of the Major League draft by the Seattle Mariners.
But that doesn't minimize Rowley's endurance and toughness, or the respect that O'Connor has for Army and all service academy athletes.
"The service academies that are competing at this level of athletics, there's no schools, no programs that you have more respect for than them," O'Connor said. "We can talk all we want about what a student-athlete has on his plate at the University of Virginia or any other university, (but) it pales in comparison to what these young people have on their plate.
"Take all the academics and all the athletics and then add all the training and everything that a student-athlete has to do at a service academy. … It's pretty special. To think that these are the types of institutions that develop our leaders and people that are going to be fighting for our country … it's really impressive. You know what these kids are made of and you have the utmost respect for them. …
"They ain't gonna back down from anybody. They will not be intimidated by the University of Virginia."

Major Labels Claim Copyright Over Public Domain Songs; YouTube Punishes Musician
from the not-cool dept
Musician Dave Colvin appears to be dealing with the latter, as he noted in a frustrated Facebook post about how the publishing arms of the major labels keep claiming copyright on public domain cover songs that he's been recording and posting to YouTube. The end result is that, even though all of these claims are bogus, YouTube is threatening to take away his ability to monetize his account, and have already disabled it on a public domain song.
I am fed up with YouTube. Several times I have provided evidence that my video "O Little Town of Bethlehem" is a Public Domain song and each time I get an email saying the song is owned by either Warner Chappell or UMPG or Sony. Now they have disabled my being able to earn any money for the number of times the video is viewed. We are only talking about pennies but no one "owns" a Public Domain song.(And just to cut this argument off before it even begins: you can absolutely make money from public domain material, you just can't stop others from doing the same thing). Again, this isn't the first time we've seen this kind of thing, and it's a situation that YouTube really needs to figure out a solution to.
They now have threatened to totally disable my account from monetizing any of my videos because of multiple "false" claims of ownership. Since there is no way to speak to a human being directly, there will never be a way to convince them of the error of their ways....Fed up!

My brother...again
Posted 11 July 2013 - 03:09 PM
I feel like he is, however, my feelings come and go.
Posted 14 July 2013 - 08:47 AM
SHALOM my friends !
Posted 23 July 2013 - 08:17 AM
There is no telling if that was your brother or not, but I would say chances are that it was. There was a lot of activity related to my brother's death, at the moment and thereafter including his appearance before my younger brother and my mother (I have never seen his spirit). Having heard a lot of stories related to the potential presence of spirits of recently passed loved ones, I have theorized (no way of proving, obviously) that maybe they are trying to get our attention, but in the act of doing so, they sort of don't know their own strength when manipulating something or reacting for the sake of attention-getting, such as hitting that pot. We do such earthly things with unforeseen consequences, such as slamming a door which in turns causes a picture hanging on the wall to fall.
With no proof of any other kind of haunting, I'd say cut your brother some slack; he's new at this, though I would be annoyed if my brother's spirit broke something of mine that I enjoyed.
Posted 26 July 2013 - 12:58 AM
So, the other day...I did a large amount of cleaning. We came across some bracelets and photos from my brother who just committed suicide. We were talking about him, cleaning and looking at photos...all of a sudden, within two minutes of the talking, a pot flew UP and OFF the pot rack (no joke, up off the hook) and landed on my tea serving jar. Smashed all of the floor, all the way to the wall 15 feet away. Can anyone see my brother here? It is amazing how everything happened all at once...just want to know if he is here.
I feel like he is, however, my feelings come and go.
I am so very sorry for your tremendous loss.
I had a friend who was murdered and that week I saw her walk right in front of me in physical form . later that night I felt her presence and as though she was caressing me .
Well in my case I was under a lot of stress and emotion and it could have been due to hallucination and a bit of imagination.
I do believe people do stick around for awhile to look after their loved one's and I also believe in general on the average there is a time they must leave and move on.
So yes I believe your brother is there with you not just there in that house but other places as well , I do not know that but I do believe it.
If it was him that through the pot he may have been trying to comfort you letting you know he was still around.
I have to be honest though I would not overlook the possibility that you are telekinetic but even if you are I still believe he was there.
Even though at some point I think most people have to move on in a way I think in part they are always still around .
I think they go to another dimension but I think they can still see hear and even make contact and cross over to this side.
I do not know any of this for sure t is what I feel and believe.
In a way I believe he will always be with you.
Posted 26 July 2013 - 08:09 AM
In our household we have had many unexplained and harmless other-worldly experiences, so we sometimes play it off to my brother messing around. It's a nice thought and hope that it is true.
Posted 26 July 2013 - 09:10 AM
Relating to the part of which SeekX spoke regarding the spirit moving on, my mother experienced my oldest brother one last time while she was washing dishes many months after he died. What could be described as his energy (no physical detail on his part) appeared to her in the hallway adjacent to the kitchen, and she realized that it was him. She said there was no oral communication, that it was all mental. He told her that he was leaving and that he had to go farther away. After a personal exchange, his energy moved down the hall (toward the room where he died) and disappeared. She has not seen him since.
In our household we have had many unexplained and harmless other-worldly experiences, so we sometimes play it off to my brother messing around. It's a nice thought and hope that it is true.
I believe you are right jimmary .
And I must add just because someone has moved on does not mean the connection is gone we are all still connected in a sense and always will be . Love can not be separated by space and time and that connection with them is never really broken.
I could explain why I believe that but I would sound a bit weird and new agy.
Though we go on with are lives and they go on with there new lives and experiences I believe when we have thoughts of them or them of us the awareness of that connection is enhanced this would even include dreams , despite what we perceive of as a separation .
What we conceive of as separation by time and space isn't the way things really are , we will always and forever remain connected.

After a two-month, six-city journey hopping across America, Solar Impulse — a fully solar-powered one-man airplane — will finally complete its mission in the early hours of Sunday morning. The plane, which will depart from Washington, D.C., early Saturday morning, will touch down in New York after making a victory lap around the Statue of Liberty.
(MORE: Solar Powered Plane Attempts Intercontinental Trip)
Solar Impulse is not a typical airplane. The tiny plane weighs in at around the size of a small car, but it boasts a wingspan that rivals a Boeing 747's. Though the trip would only take a little over an hour in a commercial jet, the plane's snail pace of 45 miles per hour means it will take much longer. Because of the plane's low speeds and uncomfortable conditions, Solar Impulse isn't designed to replace gas-guzzling commercial jets. Instead, its creators Bertrand Piccard and André Borschberg want it to set an example as a pioneer of green engineering.
The founding duo plan to set their sights even further once this journey is complete. In 2015, they plan to circumnavigate the globe with a larger model of the eco-friendly plane.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Nov. 4, 2007) - Four Lady Buccaneer players scored double figures and the ETSU women's basketball team outscored Wingate, 46-27, in the second half, lifting them to an 89-61 victory over the Bulldogs Sunday afternoon from Memorial Center.
Sophomore sensation TaRonda Wiles (
"TaRonda suffered a serious injury which sidelined her during most of the conference season last year, but I always thought if she stays healthy she is capable of being one of the best players in the Atlantic Sun," added ETSU women's head coach Karen Kemp, who looks to guide her team to its third consecutive winning season in 2007-08. "She really showed everyone today what she is capable of doing and hopefully we will see more of it once the season begins."
ETSU's stifling defense and gritty attitude was the main factor in Sunday's victory, as the Lady Buccaneers forced 38 Bulldog turnovers, leading to 35 points on the other end. In all, ETSU out-rebounded Wingate, 53-47, forced 23 steals, and held the Bulldogs to only seven second half field goals in its final test before next Friday's regular season opener against Western Kentucky in the Preseason WNIT.
"We got off to a sloppy start, but that is the reason we play these exhibition games; so we can get the jitters out before the regular season," added Kemp. "We came out with a lot more intensity in the second half, which helped us come away with the victory."
The Lady Bucs struggled early on as they missed nine of their first 10 shots to begin the game, but ETSU never gave up and took a nine-point advantage into the locker room, leading 43-34.
Wingate outshot ETSU, 41.4 percent (12-of-29) to 39.0 percent (16-of-41), during the first 20 minutes of action. However, the Bucs reeked havoc on the defensive end, forcing 19 turnovers and converting those to 22 points. ETSU also did an excellent job around the glass, grabbing 13 offensive rebounds compared to only six by the Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs hung around for the first 10 minutes of the second half, but with 10:04 remaining the Lady Buccaneers turned their game up another gear. ETSU closed out the final 10-plus minutes on 32-13 run, leading them to the 28-point victory.
The Lady Bucs shot 40.2 percent (35-of-87) for the ballgame, compared to a frigid 31.7 percent (19-of-60) for Wingate. ETSU also doubled the Bulldogs in the paint, 44-22, and held Wingate to only one three-point field goal for the entire 40 minutes.
"The ball was not dropping for us early, but I am very happy with how the team never gave up and kept with it," added Kemp.

Defence force chief General David Hurley says a federal opposition policy to turn back asylum seeker boats won't stop people smuggling.
General Hurley says his job is to do what the government of the day requires, but turning back boats is an operational technique, not a solution to the problem.
"This is a whole chain and just doing one bit does not stop the whole chain functioning. They will work around this," he told Sky News on Tuesday.
"Within two days they will come up with a counter.
"So they are very agile in that sense."
General Hurley pointed to cases where asylum seekers or crew on boats had telephoned Australian emergency services and asked to be intercepted.
The coalition has promised a policy to turn back asylum seeker boats at sea where it's safe to do so, if it wins the next federal election.
General Hurley also said the expert panel on asylum seeker policy, headed by former defence chief Angus Houston, had delivered a fairly coherent plan to deter the boats.
"It's just going to take time to work it through," he said.
General Hurley said the navy was dealing with the results of people smugglers.
"They will put these people out in those boats and push them off for a dollar," he said.
"We have got to attack that at many levels."

NORMAN, Okla. – The Oklahoma and Baylor men and Texas and Oklahoma State women will battle for the 2013 Big 12 tennis championship crowns as all four teams advanced with semifinal wins Saturday at the Headington Family Tennis Center. First serve for both championship matches is 1 p.m. CT on Sunday.
The Sooner men will be looking for their second straight Big 12 Championship crown while the Bears are vying for their eighth tournament title. On the women's side, the Longhorns, last year's winners, are fighting for their eighth championship while the Cowgirls are playing for their second title and first since 2003. The fifth-seeded Cowgirls are the highest seed in the women's finals since No. 7 Oklahoma in 1999.
In the men's bracket, the second-seeded and 14th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners (18-6) secured a third straight appearance in the Big 12 Tennis Championship final with a 4-1 victory against third-seeded Texas (16-18). The Longhorns got off to a hot start, taking victories at the No. 2 (8-5) and No. 3 (8-6) spots to earn the doubles point. That was UT's final point of the day, though, as OU secured points at the third, second and fifth singles spots. Sophomore Dane Webb, last year's Most Outstanding Player of the Big 12 Championship, clinched the win for the Sooners after notching a 6-4, 6-4 takedown of UT's Nick Naumann at No. 4 singles.
The top men's seed Baylor trumped No. 4 TCU, 4-1, to head to its 12th Big 12 tournament final. After the Horned Frog tandem of Will Stein and Nick Chappell nabbed the win at No. 1 doubles, the Bears sealed the point with 8-5 victories at the second and third spots. The Bears continued to roar, grabbing the first two singles wins at the Nos. 5 and 1 spots. The clinching point came at No. 3, where Baylor freshman Julian Lenz downed TCU's Arnau Dachs, 6-3, 6-4.
The first women's semifinal saw No. 3 Texas (16-10) upset second-seeded Texas Tech 4-3. The Lady Raiders (19-6) cruised through doubles, securing the point with an 8-3 win at No. 3 and an 8-2 victory at No. 2. The first two points off the court in singles went to the Longhorns, though, as No. 1 Aeriel Ellis defeated Tech's Samantha Adams (6-2, 6-2) and No. 2 Breauna Addison took down Rashmi Teltumbde of Tech (6-2, 6-1). The two squads traded points at the fifth, third and fourth positions, leaving the deciding point up to a three-set thriller at No. 6. UT's Lana Groenvnyck clinched the match for the Longhorns with the win at that spot over Lady Raider Caroline Starck 6-4, 3-6, 7-5.
The biggest upset of the day came as No. 5 Oklahoma State knocked off top-seeded Baylor 4-3. The Cowgirls got off to a hot start, clinching the doubles point with wins over Baylor (16-14) at Nos. 2 and 3. Singles stayed tight as the teams exchanged points through the first five courts. It came down to the sixth spot where OSU's Karyn Guttormsen came back from one set down to clinch the point and the match over BU's Alex Clay 7-6(6), 6-3, 6-4.
Single-session tickets are still available at $5 for adults and $4 for youth and seniors.

(WOIO) - 19 Action News Reporter Ed Gallek is tracking new details in the investigation into the death of convicted kidnapper and sex predator Ariel Castro.
The state prison system said that an internal investigation into Castro's suicide behind bars would be complete by the end of September. A spokesperson now tells 19 Action News the prison system director is reviewing the report, and it should be released by the end of the week.
Meanwhile, the highway patrol is also investigating Castro's death. The patrol says it's final report is not yet complete because they are waiting for the final autopsy report.
Castro used a bed sheet to hang himself in his cell last month at the Correctional Reception Center in Orient, Pickaway County.
Castro had been sentenced on August 1 to life in prison, plus 1,000 years, for kidnapping and sexually assaulting Amanda Berry, Michelle Knight and Gina DeJesus while holding them captive in his Seymour Avenue house for over a decade.

Glenn Beck, who thinks that Mitt Romney is just like George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, is making his predictions on the election. And he thinks Romney wins by more than 100 electoral votes, because God is on Romney's side.
So if that doesn't happen, will it prove that God doesn't want Romney? Or that Beck has no idea what God wants? Or that there is no God? Of course not.

26 August 2010
August 26, 2010 (Holland, MI) - The 2010 Audi Melges 20 U.S. National Championship officially gets underway this weekend at the Macatawa Bay Yacht Club in Holland, Mich.

Eyes will be on Chuck Holzman's Flyer with the talents of 2009 Rolex Yachtsman of the Year Bora Gulari as tactician and George 'Bear' Peet as trimmer.
For the second running of the U.S. Nationals, the fleet is full of fresh faces. George Gamble debuts on A Little Wicked, Brian Hill on Atlas, Jeff Jones on Bad Nemo, Kate Mullin on CAN-141, Lance Smotherman on Details, Paul Reilly onRed Sky Sailing Team, Simon Strauss on Simplicity, Kent Haeger on USA-012 and Rhonda Joyce on Batteries Not Included. They are all brand new to the fleet.
Thursday, August 26 has been set aside for warm-up, practice and registration. Championship racing starts Friday, August 27 and will conclude on Sunday, August 29. Plenty of great parties and dinner gatherings are planned.
The International Audi Melges 20 Class Association (IM20CA) would like to extend a sincere gesture of gratitude to International Class and U.S. National Championship title sponsor Audi. The sportiness of Audi and Melges' keen take on performance are the perfect match. The Audi Melges 20 is proof. Melges Performance Sailboats is also a heavy supporting sponsor. Every team, every entry can depend on Melges on- and off-the-water with their 5-star superior product support, authorized parts and customer service at Nationals.

NowNow the state workers can use sex offender email and profiles to surf kiddie porn, email little boys, and they have a whole list of possible offenders to use. Then the sex offender gets the charge.
I really don't see how they can enforce it. If you get caught doing anything illegal with or without a registered name, your still caught. Probably just another charge they can get you with. Pointless!

JB, 19 May 2008 @ 9:02amThere are 26,000 names in the NY registry. How many of them are even in the registry because their crime involved a minor?

as a sex offenderI'm a sex offender (18 year old with 16 year old girlfriend)
what constitues a username?
If this goes into effect here, I'd have to register pages upon pages of names and emails.
what about work emails? I don't own it... my company does, do I have to list that? I can see this hurting the company as people will obviously look at what companies employ sex offenders and give them negative rep - thus I'll have a harder time finding a job.
Does world of warcraft count? What about counter-strike or other games where I can change my name at will but still talk to people.
Myspace? facebook? Linkedin? Ebay? Amazon? wikipedia?
I also own about 50 websites, which total about 2,000 email addresses (as i use help@ webmaster@ support@ myname@, etc..)
This will provide no help to anybody - but it will bring much harassment to those who don't deserve it.
We did our time, we complied with probation - stop imposing more rules on us. If you think we're dangerous put us in jail.
Since you let us out, treat us like anybody else.

typo naziMike,
3rd from last sentence, "Most involve known to the offender" should probably read "Most involve people known to the offender".
Whatever happened to teaching your kids to not talk to strangers? I make it a point to try not to vote for people that present these 'for the children' bills. I imagine the grandstanding must have a pretty high return for vote garnering, or they wouldn't all do it.

Hopefully they have an electronic means to report this info. If I were you I'd make a web app to host on your server, and then another app that continually makes new usernames and automatically reports them for you, might as well keep em busy.
I saw an article not to long ago (unfortunately I can't find it now), about a guy that was supposed to report to the govt every time he moved. He decided to go above and beyond and mailed the agent a postcard every time he walked by one of the blue mailboxes on the side of the road..

Typical mix of politicians and the internetThe sex offender registry is a terrible idea, because most of the people on it are guilty of extremely minor offenses (public urination, streaking, even mooning can land you on there.) Then there's the "age of consent" cases where someone is guilty of "rape" for being 16 years and 0 days old, and having consensual sex with someone who is 15 years and 364 days old.
We have created a society where someone who is stupid one night, drinks too much, and gets caught peeing in a parking lot will receive a penalty of being unable to get a real job for the rest of his life (unless he can self-employ), and being shunned and exiled by neighbors everywhere for the rest of his life. That seems a bit severe for something that used to carry a tiny fine and maybe a small community service order.
Then again, in a society where the average sentence for pot exceeds the average sentence for negligent homicide, I guess that fits right in with the "justice" system we have.
What ever happened to making the punishment fit the crime, instead of "declaring war" on concepts? It's not hard to see the connection between us being #1 in the world for percentage of our population in prison, and the fact that we have these insane laws imposing stupidly long sentences, or in the case of the registry, eternal sentences for trivial crimes.
This particular law is not only unfair for the vast majority of people affected by it, it's also technologically ridiculous.
I would imagine that just about every active net user has at least a dozen accounts, and that just covers the basics like email, a favorite forum or two, etc.
If you're a gamer, add dozens to that - 1/game, or in the case of a game where there's no central account to tie stuff to, 1/character/army/city/deck/whatever makes sense for the game. Web site owners have several addresses for their site, and of course, many people run dozens of small sites. Now think about every blog you made an account on to participate in one discussion thread, every site that made you sign up to get a file, and all the other web accounts that you used once for 5 minutes, then never logged into again. It'd not unreasonable to have 100 or more accounts.
Of course, that assumes you don't have a catchall, either because you run a website and need a *@yourdomain account to not lose stuff from people who can't figure out where to send it, or because you have a dedicated email domain and file stuff into folders based on what address it was sent (as well as probably using stricter spam filter settings on certain ones.) If you use a catchall, then your number of screenames is technically infinite, and all possible names exist, even if they've never been used and have no entry in a database. Are you supposed to run a bot script that infinitely submits names to that database? :p I'm sure they'd love having their servers hammered with a few thousand bots trying to comply with this law.

Re: Either way...There's two sides to every issue...If it makes parents sleep better at night, whatever. But, I guess it's better to be safe than sorry.
Uh-huh. But it's better to actually BE safe than to just FEEL safe. Unfortunately, this bill doesn't do ANYTHING to make anyone safer whatsoever. But it will create substantial additional bureaucratic red-tape that will inconvenience people and cost tax-paying citizens money. More to the point, that's tax money that can't be used on something that actually DOES make people safer...or healthier...or whatever.

Idle hands, 19 May 2008 @ 11:22amOne problem. If they gonna fukkin abuse kiddies, then they are not bothered about the law ne way, so its hardly like its gonna be a big deal to them.
"Hey Mr policeman heres an email address i'm gonna use to groom ANUTHA kiddie"
Just do away with the fukkers n be done with. Castrate the twats.
Have our politicians got nothing better to do than to create "work" for themselves. We have just passed this law in the UK. Do we really think its going to make a difference ?
USA, u got the death penatly, USE it.

Nate, 19 May 2008 @ 11:44amNot that I stick up for the sex offenders... personally, I would like to kill all of them (at least child molesters)... but this is rather pointless. I understand the intent, but it is almost completely untrackable. How is the state going to know how many nicknames or email addresses one person has? http://www.custompcmax.com

Re:"How is the state going to know how many nicknames or email addresses one person has?"
They won't.
"personally, I would like to kill all of them (at least child molesters)"
...and that's the real can of worms. Should child rape automatically carry higher penalties than adult rape? What constitutes molestation? - there have been countless reports where the term has been misused for everything from a parent spanking their kid to a teacher holding a kid to stop them from beating on another child - where's the line? What about those people who are technically guilty of child rape, even though they were only 14 at the time themselves? How do you separate those who represent a real danger from those who got caught out doing something minor (the aforementioned mooning offences, for example).
Sadly, I think I'm asking more pertinent and realistic questions here than anyone involved in this kind of legislation ever does - easier to make it look like you're doing something than actually doing something that will be effective.

Nate, 19 May 2008 @ 12:41pm
Re: Re:I know, it is a can of worms. And I know that isn't the real solution, because of the varying degrees of abuse. But, I am sick and tired of adults that prey on children for sexual gratification. If it were up to me, and it was proven beyond a doubt that an adult molested a child, severe punishment is warranted.
But, that is a personal opinion. And how to sort out the real "baddies" from the spanking your child cases... I don't know. But someone who rapes a child does not deserve to breath the same air as you an me. And when I say rape, I mean forcible sex. I am not talking about the guy who is 18 having consenual sex with his 17 year old high school girl friend. Again, how you sort it out, I am not sure... but, that is why I am not a judge.
But, I am the same person who would like to see people who fight pitbulls (or abuse animals in anyway) put to death. Basically, if you are abusive to children or animals, you are a POS in my book. So, my opinions could be taken as a bit extreme.

Re:How is the state going to know how many nicknames or email addresses one person has?
This probably isn't for policing, but rather for after-the-fact piling-on by the prosecutor. Get access to the person's computer, see evidence of a yahoo email address that wasn't reported, add 5 years to the person's prison sentence.

Re: as a sex offenderWhat is happening to people like yourself is the reason that I disagree with sex offender registries and the like. I thought that the point of our corrections system was to lock a person who has been convicted of a crime away from the general public for a set period of time and, when that debt to society has been paid, let them go and live a free life again. I'm in awe that no one has tried to overturn some of these laws using the 8th amendments 'cruel and unusual punishment' clause. Having to actively register oneself as having committed a crime in the past seems like quite an unusual punishment to me.

Ratings & Reviews
This anthology features three chilling horror stories. "Il Telefono" is credited to Guy de Maupassant, although he never wrote such a story, and concerns a woman (Michele Mercier) receiving telephone calls from beyond the grave. "Wurdulak", by Alexei Tolstoi, stars Boris Karloff as an aging vampire who can only feed on those he loves. Co-starring Mark Damon and Susy Andersen, it is clearly the best story of the three. The final tale, "La Goccia d'Acqua," is falsely credited to Anton Chekhov. It features Jacqueline Pierreux stealing a ring from a corpse she is preparing for burial, only to be murdered by the old woman's ghost. The American version differs in four major areas: the print is shorter, the stories appear in a different order, there is a linking device with Karloff speaking directly to the audience from a foggy void, and Roberto Nicolosi's musical score is replaced with one by lounge-icon Les Baxter. The American release of the film is also missing a comic coda featuring Karloff riding on horseback (or is he?); this appears in most Eurpoean prints of the film, including Mario Bava's original cut. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi
