Website offers New Canaan $9.8M to change its name
Known as the Next Station to Heaven, New Canaan has a rich history. The bedroom community, known for its top-notch school district and a penchant for wearing Lilly Pulitzer and Nantucket reds, is steeped in tradition.
But that hasn't stopped one company from offering the town $9.8 million to change its name.
According to a news release, SugarDaddie.com, a dating site that connects wealthy men to "attractive, single" women, contacted First Selectman Robert Mallozzi claiming the company would fork over nearly $10 million if the town changes its name to SugarDaddie.com, USA.
While we doubt anyone in town would ever agree to such a gimmick, no matter how much money was involved, the thought of writing "SugarDaddie.com" as a return address had us cracking up.
Mallozzi, however, said he never received an offer from the site.
"For the record, no one has approached me," he said Monday.

He said he received an email from NBC News asking for comment, but moved it to his junk folder, assuming it was spam. "I literally thought it was junk and deleted it," he said.
New Canaan isn't the first town the site has had its eyes on. Over the past few months, the company contacted Sugar Land, Texas, and Woodside, Calif., in an attempt to gain naming rights.
However, in both cases, SugarDaddie.com only offered half the amount, thinking it could convince the towns to give up their names for a mere $4.65 million. And in both cases, the site was denied.
So let's say our town officials decided to take the cash. They'd be required to officially change the name of New Canaan to SugarDaddie.com for 10 years. According to the news release, which outlined the terms, all official government correspondence, institutions and street signs must be changed to reflect the new name, including renaming Mead Park to SugarDaddie.com Park.
The New Canaan Town Hall, currently under renovation, would be renamed SugarDaddie Town Hall and "all city marketing resources must be made to reflect the city's official new name and must be fully implemented within six months."
You think that's bad? That's nothing compared to the Hugh Hefner statue that must be erected near town hall for at least 12 years. Somehow, I don't see that happening.
A call to SugarDaddie.com wasn't returned. Perhaps it's moved on to Darien or Greenwich. Better them than us.

Membership is the foundation for excellence and unites the field.
The American Alliance of Museums, representing the entire U.S. museum field, advocates on behalf of museums as critical partners in education and experiential learning.
Despite their central role in the system, federal policy often neglects to consider museums' contributions to the field of education. The Alliance's Government Relations and Advocacy team works to make sure museums are at the table, pushing to retain a wide range of core academic subjects, encouraging greater interagency collaboration, and seeking to give museums more direct access to teacher training funds, among other goals. Our issue brief on elementary and secondary education has further details.
In response to forecasts that the United States is on the cusp of transformational change in the educational system, the Alliance's Center for the Future of Museums recently launched a national dialogue about the future of education and how museums can be integrated with schools and other educational assets into a vibrant learning grid.
Building the Future of Education: Museums and the Learning Ecosystem (2014) summarizes the content and shares ideas coming out of a convening organized by the Alliance and The Henry Ford. Essays by educators, students, researchers and reformers explore how leaders from the worlds of education and museums can work together to create immersive, experiential learning opportunities for youth.
The Alliance and its network of partners plan to take the following steps to better integrate museums into the U.S. educational system:
Compile and disseminate case studies of successful projects that integrate museum assets into the larger educational landscape.
Share information with policymakers about museums' work in the field of education.
Identify and evaluate high-performing digital platforms that can aggregate and distribute museum educational content, and devise ways to encourage museums to make use of them.
Foster innovative experimentation by individual museums or consortia of museums.
Research museums' contribution to education to fill in knowledge gaps.
Advocate for museums' rightful place at the table with regards to education policy, both year-round and during Museums Advocacy Day.
Organize local convenings of museum staff and education providers to identify ways for communities to integrate museum resources into the local learning ecosystem.
If you are interested in participating in or supporting these initiatives, or if you would like more information about our work in education, please contact Brooke Leonard, senior manager of institutional advancement.
CFM explores the role can museums play in the next era of learning through a series of reports and papers.

You wouldn't know it from watching him during his first four months on WWE television, but Alberto Del Rio has had to nearly reinvent his style from the days when he worked around the world as Dos Caras Jr.
Gone is the trademark mask, the family legacy and name that meant so much abroad and the style he's so used to wrestling. Born out of that is the character of a Mexican aristocrat, one with millions of dollars, houses upon houses and garages filled with only the most prestigious and expensive automobiles.
The son of the legendary luchador Dos Caras and the nephew of Mil Mascaras, wrestling has been in Del Rio's blood for generations.
Now, he has left years of tradition behind to make a name for himself in the United States with WWE.
Making the transition
Despite the confident appearance he gives on WWE television, the transformation from luchador Dos Caras Jr. to WWE superstar Alberto Del Rio certainly hasn't been as easy as he's made it look.
"I'm going to be totally honest with you, it was really hard," he told SLAM! Wrestling on Thursday.
When Del Rio signed with WWE in 2009 and was sent to the company's developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling, it was a learning experience for the ring veteran, who not only had to learn a different style of wrestling, but had to work without a mask for the first time in his career. Even in his mixed martial arts bouts he fought with the mask on.
"I feel great now, but at the beginning it was really difficult because I had wrestled with that mask for over 10 years everywhere, Mexico, Japan, Europe and at the beginning it was hard because you're not used to selling your expressions," Del Rio said. "But I was there in FCW with guys like Norman (Smiley), Dr. Tom Pritchard, with Dusty Rhodes, and they helped me a lot. They helped me all the way. I think there's a reason I'm doing such a good job here in WWE."
"In Mexico, we wrestle on the right side," Del Rio said. "Here in America, we do it on the left side. That was the hardest part. Then how to work for the cameras, for TV, sell my expressions, all those things were really difficult at the beginning, but at this moment I feel really comfortable and I think, well, I don't think, I'm sure I'm doing a great job."
Even though Del Rio has had to make the transition from lucha wrestler to WWE superstar, he, like many wrestling greats of the past, had the opportunity to learn other styles and go through the rigors of working around the world before coming to WWE.
Stars like Chris Jericho and Lance Storm have credited working around the world as one of the reasons they went on to have success in the United States. Del Rio certainly seems on his way to becoming another one of those success stories.
"I think I have everything because I have the three strong styles in the world," he said. "I have the American style, the Mexican style and the Japanese style. The fusion of all those styles are making me what I am right now. Plus, the combination of the lucha libre style with the WWE style is paying off. Plus, I've got the strength, I've got the size and especially I've got the experience. I'm not one of those guys without experience. I've been doing this for years and years and I can face anyone."
A big character
Del Rio has one of the more dynamic characters in WWE with a top-notch presentation. He rides into the arena in a luxury automobile, he has his own personal ring announcer and gets a pyro shower behind him during his entrance.
His in-ring character is a cocky and endlessly arrogant. A ruthless competitor who will take any shortcut to gain an advantage. One who isn't afraid to take another superstar out if he has to.
Crafting the Alberto Del Rio persona has been an interesting study. Like many successful characters in wrestling, Del Rio has used personal experiences to fuel his portrayal.
"To develop my character, I only used experiences from people I hate," he said, laughing. "That's making my job really easy. All your life, you have the chance to know people where you hate the way they talk, the way they walk, the way they express themselves and that's what I do to develop my character. I just remember people I hate through the years and that's Alberto Del Rio right there."
He said prior to being put on television, he had a conversation with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon about his character that ended up really connecting with him.
"Before my debut, Mr. McMahon told me, 'You gotta believe to make people believe,'" Del Rio said. "When he told me that, I was like, 'OK, all that I need is to believe my character and that way, everyone in the crowd will believe in this character.' That's what I do every time I go out, I really believe I'm Alberto Del Rio. I really believe I have all those cars, all those millions."
Right now, he's playing the gimmick. One day, he wants to live it.
"I hope someday I have all those millions and all those cars," he said, laughing.
A family tradition
Like several others in WWE, Del Rio himself is a third generation superstar. His father, though, spent his career plying his trade in Mexico while his uncle Mil Mascaras branched out much like Del Rio, wrestling around the world.
"My grandpa was a wrestler. He never was a real famous wrestler, but he's the one who started this tradition in my family," Del Rio said. "Then my father, my uncles, my cousins and now me, it's in our blood. Since I was a little kid, I was always with my father in the gym, training."
Although he isn't the first family member to wrestle for the McMahon family (Mascaras had a run in the 1970s in the WWWF), he is the first member of his family to wrestle as a heel, and he said he loves it.
"All my family members are babyfaces and I was a babyface in Mexico," Del Rio said. "I'm enjoying being a heel so much, I'm having so much fun that I don't want to be a babyface ever again in my life.
"Being a heel, you have the chance to interact with the people, to make them cry, laugh. To interact with the people, to make them cry and laugh, you make them hate you and that's a lot of power in your hands. That's what I'm enjoying the most."
Even though he has a big match coming up this Sunday at the "WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders, Chairs" pay-per-view, one of Del Rio's most special moments in his short time in WWE was the company's tour of Mexico in October. On that tour, his father came along for the ride, cornering Del Rio and also participating as a special guest referee.
"For a week, they made my dad feel like a superstar again," Del Rio said. "My father is one of those guys who really loves the business, who misses the business, who misses the road. The fact that the company invited him to do that tour in Mexico, that was something incredible. For me, imagine this, my father, my teacher, my friend, he was next to me, in the corner while I was facing Rey and the Undertaker in front of my own people from Mexico. That was a really incredible experience."
Achieving success
After spending time in FCW, Del Rio was brought on the road, working dark matches and house shows for several months before vignettes began playing on Smackdown touting his impending debut.
Del Rio, though, said he was patient throughout the entire process, from starting on the road in April to his television debut in late August.
"I understand that WWE, it's like the NFL or NBA of wrestling, so if you really want to be here, you have to go through all those steps to go to the top," he said. "I knew that the company knew I am a wrestler with experience. They have to try me. They wanted to see if I'm going to be able to handle the pressure and that's the reason they put me in all those dark matches and all those house shows before they put me on TV. I was OK because all the time I knew at some point I'm going to be where I am right now."
Despite his family's rich history in Mexico, Del Rio said he's always wanted to come to America and work for WWE. He said he thinks every wrestler, no matter what their original origin, wants to be in WWE.
"It's like an actor doing soap operas in Mexico, they're fine, they're comfortable there, but they want to be in Hollywood," Del Rio said. "It's the same for us, for entertainers, you work in countries like Mexico, there's a lot of companies down there, but at the end, my dream was always to be here, in this company, because it's the biggest company in the world."
Wrestling for the biggest company in the world has both its benefits and downfalls. He gets the greatest exposure on a worldwide level, but there's also more competition for the top spots in the company.
When he participates in his first non-team pay-per-view match Sunday, he has confidence that it's just the beginning.
"I think I'm going to be heavyweight champion in this company very soon," he said. "In two years, I think I'm going to be one of the main guys in this company, one of the top five guys in this company. That's the reason I came here, that's the reason I left everything behind -- my friends, my family, my house in Mexico, my status. I was a big superstar in Mexico and when I came to WWE, no one knew me. Now I'm building my career here in the States, little by little and I'm sure I'm going to be one of the main guys pretty soon."

WASHINGTON – Printing out body parts? Cornell University researchers showed it's possible by creating a replacement ear using a 3-D printer and injections of living cells.
The work reported Wednesday is a first step toward one day growing customized new ears for children born with malformed ones or people who lose one to accident or disease.
It's part of the hot field of tissue regeneration, trying to regrow all kinds of body parts. Scientists hope using 3-D printing technology might offer a speedier method with more lifelike results.
If it pans out, "this enables us to rapidly customize implants for whoever needs them," said Cornell biomedical engineer Lawrence Bonassar, who co-authored the research published online in the journal PLoS One.
This first-step work crafted a human-shaped ear that grew with cartilage from a cow.
Study co-author Dr. Jason Spector of Weill Cornell Medical Center is working on the next step — how to cultivate enough of a child's remaining ear cartilage in the lab to grow an entirely new ear.
Wednesday's report is "a nice advancement," said Dr. Anthony Atala, director of the Institute for Regenerative Medicine at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, who wasn't involved in the new research.
Three-dimensional printers, which gradually layer materials to form shapes, are widely used in manufacturing. For medicine, Atala said the ear work is part of broader research that shows "the technology now is at the point where we can in fact print these three-dimensional structures and they do become functional over time."
Today, people who need a new ear often turn to prosthetics that require a rod to fasten to the head. For children, doctors sometimes fashion a new ear from the stiffer cartilage surrounding ribs, but it's a big operation. Spector said the end result seldom looks completely natural. Hence the quest to use a patient's own cells to grow a replacement ear.
The Cornell team started with a 3-D camera that rapidly rotates around a child's head for a picture of the existing ear to match. It beams the ear's geometry into a computer, without the mess of a traditional mold or the radiation if CT scans were used to measure ear anatomy.
From that image, the 3-D printer produced a soft mold of the ear. Bonassar injected it with a special collagen gel that's full of cow cells that produce cartilage — forming a scaffolding. Over the next few weeks, cartilage grew to replace the collagen. At three months, it appeared to be a flexible and workable outer ear, the study concluded.
Now Bonassar's team can do the process even faster by using the living cells in that collagen gel as the printer's "ink." The 3-D technology directly layers the gel into just the right ear shape for cartilage to cover, without having to make a mold first.
The next step is to use a patient's own cells in the 3-D printing process.

Michael Wilbon appears to have backed down from some of his ridiculous, offensive chat comments yesterday, but the fact remains: The way many media outlets dealt with the death of Sean Taylor yesterday was questionable, to say the least.
That is to say: When his death appears — for now, anyway — to have nothing to do with any of his off-field troubles, why does everyone feel compelled to keep bringing them up, as if this was somehow an inevitable result?
Why, when a man is on what turns out to be his death-bed, is it necessary to highlight negativities in his life? Without knowing all of the facts surrounding his death, mentioning those moments of indiscretion in an effort to cast a shadow on a dying man's character is completely without class.
Perhaps it will turn out that Taylor's off-field troubles led to this ... but it's unlikely, and there's certainly no evidence to suggest that so far. Other than the fact that he kept a machete next to his bed, that is. When one dies at 24, we suppose it's difficult to find items to fill up an obit, whether they're relevant to the situation at night. Yet another layer to the whole tragedy.

Pups and Edm HS
Pups here to find homes
Doggie deliveries driven by adoption success
More Images »
Meet some of the new puppies looking to be adopted at the Edmonton Humane Society on February 22, 2010.
Photograph by: Ed Kaiser, edmontonjournal.com
Edmonton is for the dogs, which is good news for animal rescue groups that need help finding homeless pooches permanent homes.
A truck loaded with 22 medium and large breed puppies from the Winnipeg Humane Society arrived at the Edmonton Humane Society on Sunday. The pups will be put up for adoption as soon as they have the required medical and behaviour tests, society spokeswoman Shawna Randolph said Monday.
Winnipeg has had fewer adoptions recently and an inexplicable increase in the number of puppies being dropped off at the shelter, Winnipeg society executive director Bill McDonald said.
It is crucial for puppies, particularly those between two and five months old, to have a home environment with individual care and training to grow into stable dogs, he said.
McDonald asked the Edmonton society to help find homes for the pups because of its recent success at adopting out homeless dogs from California.
More than 90 per cent of the 112 small breed dogs flown by private jet to Edmonton from Fresco, Calf., last month have found homes.
And Edmonton is known as a family-oriented community that loves animals, McDonald said.
"We are so thankful that the Edmonton Humane Society is helping us give these dogs the proper start," he said. "It was a happy occasion to see these pups hit the road."
Randolph said the transfer of the puppies did not cost the humane society any donor money. It was all made possible with the generosity of Cochrane's Automotive Repair, a west-end Lexus dealership, and volunteers Sandy and Les Raubenheimer.
Cochrane serviced the Edmonton Humane Society truck for the 1,700-kilometre trip at no cost, while the Lexus dealership supplied $2,500 for gas. The Raubenheimers, who drove, covered their own expenses.
The couple left Edmonton on Thursday and arrived in Winnipeg on Saturday, where they loaded up the puppies. They stayed overnight in Saskatoon, with the pups housed by the SPCA. They arrived back in Edmonton on Sunday.
Randolph said the Edmonton society will help other humane organizations and animal rescue groups whenever it can, because that is its mandate. "We haven't been able to help all the time. But we always say to check back in a little while."
The society plans to help out the Humane Rescue Animal Team of northern Alberta by taking 13 homeless dogs off its hands in a couple of weeks, she said.
It will continue to help with the California Canine Cuties program to encourage Edmontonians looking for small breed dogs to turn to them first.
Few people realize that many dogs offered for sale in newspapers, online and in pet stores come from puppy mills, where they often live in horrible conditions and are bred with little thought to the dogs' welfare, Randolph said.
Most of the Winnipeg puppies, which include a couple of St. Bernard mixes, Lab and retriever mixes, border collie and collie mixes as well as German shepherd mixes, have been spayed or neutered. The few that still require surgery will have their operations done by the society, she said.
The first pups should be up for adoption in a few days, and the public is advised to watch www.edmontonhumanesociety.comfor updates.

Camote | sweet potato- 1/2kilo
Ripe Saba Banana- 5pieces
Landang | Palm flour - 1/4kilo
Sago- 1 tea cup
Coconut milk-500grams or Grated Coconut use only 1 piece of raw coconut
Brown sugar- ½ kilo
Pilit Rice | Sticky Rice- ¼ kilo
Ripe Jackfruit- 1 tea cup
Cooking Preparations and Directions:
1. Peel camote | sweet potato. Wash and cut into square size by 1 inch thickness.
2. Peel Saba Banana and cut thinly.
3. Wash landang | Palm flour using filter to trap all small particles.
4. Wash Sago. This product is kind of colorful small circle sizes.
5. Using raw coconut to make milk this is how it works, just put 1 tea cup of hot water and 1 glass of tap water in grated coconut and then squeeze it many times to produce more milk, after that squeeze once more to let the milk out and then separate the grated coconut from the milk. Filter the milk again to trap the tiny matter and squeeze the remaining grated coconut.
6. In a big casserole place pilit rice or sticky rice and put water that level to the amount of the rice. Boil until it will become tender.
7. In the same casserole, add the chopped camote or sweet potato and landang or palm flour add more water just above the level to the amount of rice, camote and landang.
8. After 10 minutes add Saba banana and sago. Just estimate the level of soup if it is still enough, no need to add water, just mix it to prevent the sticky rice will stick into the casserole.
9. Later, check the Saba banana and sago if it is cooked, right after that, add the coconut milk, jackfruit and the brown sugar.
10. Mix it for 1 minute to contribute the sweetness of sugar and the coconut of milk. Let it boil.
11. Taste it and serve immediately.
Tips: Once again this recipe is good for light meals, very useful to those who have their balance diet. Binignit is a Cebuano term or Filipino language. In Philippines there are lots of language and Cebuano | Visayan language is one of those varieties. Cebuano means CEBU. I am just explaining to let those people especially from other countries to know the meaning of the words that I used and to prevent confusion for everybody.
This recipe is quite simple and a very healthy because the ingredients are mostly all natural, except the sago it is processed, but it is healthy.
If you have more questions to clarify please don't hesitate to ask and I'll answer quickly.

- Page 3 Panasonic DMR-HW220 – Operation, Performance and Verdict
- Impressive picture quality
- Revamped EPG
- Large hard-disk with external HDD back-up
- Can't play MKV over network
- Uninspiring design
- Some menus need a revamp
- Viera Connect not up to standard of rivals
Key Features
- Review Price: £260.00
- 1TB hard-disk drive
- Twin Freeview HD tuners
- Built-in Wi-Fi
- Viera Connect
- DLNA certified
- 2 USB ports & SD card slot
- 2D-to-3D conversion
The Panasonic DMR-HW220 is one of several new hard-disk recorders in Panasonic's 2012 range, but unlike some of the step-up models, there's no Blu-ray recording on board for making copies of hi-def programmes. This is a straight up Freeview HD PVR with a 1TB hard-disk, but it does throw in most of the snazzy features from the company's Blu-ray players, such as Viera Connect, built-in Wi-Fi and DLNA certification. Great news, but with Samsung's brilliant BD-E8500 Smart PVR already laying down the gauntlet, Panasonic doesn't have things all its own way – let's see what the Japanese brand brings to the table.
First up, Panasonic has done very little to change the external design this year. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as the all-black casing with silver trim is tasteful and easy to match with other components. We're impressed by the aluminium bodywork, which gives build quality a boost, but at 59mm high it's surprisingly chunky.
Panasonic likes using flaps to hide front panel clutter and here it covers up a USB port, an SD card slot and buttons for changing channels. The lack of Blu-ray drive means there's a large blank panel on the left, plus there's a large LED display panel and cluster of lights to indicate a recording is in progress.
On the back the socket line-up covers all bases. Interestingly there's a second USB port, which can be used exclusively for Panasonic's communication camera should you choose to buy one, allowing you to make Skype video calls from the comfort of your sofa. That leaves the front USB port free for media playback from HDDs and flash drives. There's no need to connect a wireless LAN adapter as the HW220 comes with built-in Wi-Fi (the cheaper DMR-HW120 does require one, however).
You'll also find an HDMI output for sending pictures to your TV, analogue stereo output, optical digital audio output and an Ethernet port, which provides an alternative (and possibly more reliable) connection to your network.

Found this :
And until the 15th Sep, it's a free D/LStudies suggest the average business spends $250 to set up a new PC - but they spend a fraction of that when they use Laplink PCmover.
PCmover makes it simple. Just install the PCmover software, click your mouse a few times, and PCmover does the rest. It really is that simple!
Was it a hassle to set up your last PC? Did you spend hours or even days moving data from an old PC to the new one? Did you lose data during the process? Were you able to find all the old software you needed to reinstall on the new PC? Maybe you tried using an imaging tool like Norton Ghost, only to discover that if the hardware or operating systems on the source and destination PCs are different, it just doesn't work.
Solve all of these problems with PCmover!
With PCmover, everything will transfer - without deleting or changing anything on the old PC and without overwriting anything on the new PC.

I got mine, you just accept that you'll receive some mails from the supplier, seems like a fair swap, as I do have a need for this type of thing

text: Saint Michael's Playhouse stages "Over the Pub" News Home 07.12.12 L to R: The Murphy children: Adam Petherbridge, Evyn Whiteley, Xavier Markey-Smith, Wade Dooley An "inspiring Irish comedy," Over the Pub, staged by Saint Michael's Playhouse in the McCarthy Arts Center, is called "a warm loving look at Ireland, family, and growing up." Written by Tom Dudzick, with this Irish adaptation by Dolores Mannion, Over the Pub is directed by Kathryn Markey, who recently directed Boeing Boeing (Mason Street Warehouse), South Pacific, Fiddler on the Roof and Carousel (New London Barn), Ragtime (White Plains PAC), and more. She is one-third of the satirical country band, "The Chalks," seen and heard on TV, and headed this fall for an extended run at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta. "Over the Pub has a lot of heart and a lot of laughs," said Director Kathryn Markey. "But it doesn't shy away from the serious question of what role faith should play in modern family life." Over the Pub, set in Cork in 1963, with Pat and Ellen Murphy who live above their pub with their four children, aged 12 to 16. Each offspring is hell-bent, or at least Purgatory-bent, on making mischief. Toss in a septuagenarian nun who's devilish with a ruler, everyone's concerns about faith and sex and family relations, and it's a hilarious feast, said one critic. Celebrating its 65th season of professional summer theater, Saint Michael's Playhouse has been named "One of the best regional theater companies in America" by The Drama League of New York City, and hailed by Yankee Magazine as "The Best of New England." The CAST in their own words The owners of the pub: Christian Kohn (Pat Murphy) has been seen in Sleuth and Shakespeare in Hollywood at the New London Barn playhouse.

Among them: A spot titled "So God made a farmer" featuring a Paul Harvey voiceover. The ad, a collaboration between Ram Trucks and sister company Case IH, kicks off a campaign identifying 2013 as "The Year of the Farmer". Ram Trucks will donate money to the National FFA Organization with each viewing of the Super Bowl ad to support the organization's hunger relief efforts. Watch the "So God made a farmer" ad: The ad generated plenty of feedback on Twitter. "This brought a tear to my eyes," wrote @NikeChillemi. Others had favorable things to say about the ad, too. "'On the eighth day, God made a farmer...' >>That one is fascinating," wrote @ryanlove146. "Mixed reviews but I think it was brilliant by Dodge." Not everyone agreed. "Every time you don't buy a Dodge truck, a baby calf dies and a farmer's son goes to work for Goldman Sachs," wrote @pourmecoffee.

TORONTO — Finding a kosher chicken in Toronto hasn't been easy since a Montreal processor became the sole supplier in Canada.
The closure of Chai Kosher Poultry's Toronto operation in May 2013 created a shortage, and it's affected all of Ontario and other parts of Canada, said Richard Rabkin, managing director of the Kashruth Council of Canada, which is known by the name of its hechsher, COR.
He said Montreal's Marvid Poultry has "worked diligently to meet increased demand, but from all feedback, it's not sufficient."
Rabkin said his family has been eating chicken patties from Israel because of the kosher chicken shortage.
"In my family, my kids are not eating regular chicken. They're eating what's known in our house as 'dinosaur' chicken, processed chicken patties in the shape of dinosaurs.
"Other people are eating more fish. Some people prefer to eat kosher chicken, but given no choice, will buy non-kosher chicken, which is really unfortunate."
Rabkin said COR has been working to address the problem with the Chicken Farmers of Ontario (CFO), which represents more than 1,000 independent Ontario chicken farmers, as well as other stakeholders in the chicken-manufacturing community, including the Association of Ontario Chicken Producers, which represents the processors.
"Both of those groups have been quite supportive and have been working to find a solution for the shortage of kosher chicken in Canada. We're very thankful for their efforts."
Some "entities" have already stepped forward and expressed an interest in processing the chicken, Rabkin said. "It's an expensive endeavour, and there are a lot of logistical challenges an entrepreneur will have to navigate."
The CFO recently put a request for proposal on its website (www.ontariochicken.ca), seeking business plans from interested parties that articulate their interest, intent, experience and ability to process Ontario chicken, in Ontario, for kosher markets. The deadline is May 30.
The request for proposal gives parties who haven't already expressed interest in processing kosher chicken the chance to do so, said CFO spokesperson Michael Edmonds.
"As a responsible supply management board, we will make the chicken available to an entity that comes up with a successful business plan that meets the needs of Ontario's kosher community."
He said the board will review the submissions, but a structure to evaluate the business plans has yet to be determined.
"We may work with other consultants," he added.
Edmonds said the CFO is anxious to work with partners who can serve the kosher market and is looking forward to reviewing the proposals as they come in.
Rabkin said COR is very concerned about the shortage of kosher chicken.
"We share the concern of kosher consumers at the lack of availability of kosher chicken and we're working with all our stakeholders and are hopeful that a solution is forthcoming."

LGS commissioned for science with NIRI and NIFS
You are here
22 Feb 2007
Following two successful LGS commissioning runs, the Altair Laser Guide Star (LGS) system is now commissioned for use in science applications using NIRI and NIFS. The system is still relatively new, so full performance under all conditions is not known at this time. However, performance is sufficient for science use and operations are now smooth enough that LGS operation can be integrated into the queue. Below we summarize the main engineering details of the commissioning run. Current science-relevant performance details are on the LGS Component webpage. 2006B-SV, 2006B-Q and 2007A-Q programs have been conducted with the LGS system.
Engineering and Operations Details:
- The distance limit for tip/tilt stars has been mapped. It turns out to be 25 arcseconds at the current time, which is below the advertised 30 arcseconds we initially expected it to be. A possible optics replacement is being considered which could boost the tip/tilt distance limit to 30 arcseconds.
- The final version of the field lens has been installed. Transmission and flat field effects have not yet been measured, but it should be considerably better than the 92% transmission of the old lens.
- Laser output has been within 9 - 11 Watts output from the laser bench. After transmission to the top end, output on the sky is about 8 Watts, which is sufficient to run at the fastest correction rate (1 kHz) during the winter months when Sodium abundance is high and half rate (500 Hz) in the summer months when Sodium abundance is low. Laser performance is now stable in terms of power output, wavelength lock, and beam quality. Beam quality is within specs at about 1.2 arcseconds FHWM.
- The high-order LGS loop can be closed on the laser in a stable and repeatable manner to correct for all aberrations besides tip and tilt, as per original specs.
- The tip/tilt (STRAP) loop can be closed on natural guide stars for tip/tilt correction at up to 1 kHz. The STRAP device has been photometrically calibrated in the R band. Guide stars as faint as R=18.5 (dark time) or R=18.0 (bright time) can be used for tip/tilt correction, although for full correction R=15 or brighter is recommended.
- The use of the slow focus sensor (SFO) loop, which corrects for the change in altitude of the Sodium layer (typically no more than 1 m/s) is now fully integrated into the system. Automatic dark frame lookup has been implemented for the SFO. Observation sequences can now be run with transparent interaction of the SFO loop.
- Focus offsets for both NIRI and NIFS have been measured for the SFO and have proven stable on the sky for the duration of an LGS run.
- Flexure between Altair LGS and NIFS/NIRI has been measured and compensation models have been implemented.
- The Field Steering Mirror (FSM) has been calibrated, which steers the tip/tilt sensor around the field and allows for offsets of the science target.
- Use of the Sequence Executor (seqexec) has been fully integrated into LGS operations, allowing full sequences with offsets, sky images, filter changes, etc. to be run during operations.
- Switching between Altair Natural Guide Star (NGS) and Laser Guide Star (LGS) modes is now robust, allowing full integration of LGS into the science queue.
- Some improvements have been made to the Laser Traffic Control System (LTCS), which coordinates Gemini observations with other observatories. This will allow simpler operation of LGS during the nighttime.
- Significant upgrades to the Telescope Control Console (TCC), which is used to control the telescope have been made which have streamlined LGS operations to an acceptable level.
- The LGS Zoom model has been updated, which allows short-term (i.e. less than 30 minutes) basic operations without the SFO loop (for example, when offsetting to sky).
- Basic steering of the Laser on the sky has been characterized sufficiently for science operations. More data on this model will be collected during acquisitions which will allow blind acquisition (i.e. no pointing correction) of the laser on the LGS wavefront sensor when finished.

Know Your Zombies!
Cinema of the living dead
Zombies have a long and proud tradition in the film industry. The 1932 chiller White Zombie starring Bela Lugosi is considered by most to be the first zombie-related film. ("She was not alive ... nor dead!" reads the poster's tagline.) But how well do you, gentle reader, know your cinema of the living dead? Test the power of your delicious brains with this heart-stopping quiz. Simply match the iconic zombie with the film that spawned it.
Film Review
Martian Child
Adults are from Earth, children are from Mars
According to the closing credits, the weepy, melodramatically indulgent dramedy Martian Child is "based on a true story." Only "the characters and events have been fabricated." So ... what exactly is true here, the houses they used?
Idiot Box
Psychic TV
Dust off the crystal ball and have a look at fall's new metaphysical game shows
Evidently, Fall 2007's stars have aligned and given birth to a whole new sort of TV psychic--the kind that's pitted against other psychics in a battle royale. After general ridicule earlier in the decade of TV mediums like John Edward ("Crossing Over"), James Van Praagh ("Beyond"), "Montel Williams Show" regular Sylvia Browne and obvious phony Miss Cleo, the psychic set seems to be making a comeback under a different format. Of course, it was inevitable that reality TV would eventually explore the paranormal. And contrary to what intuition might tell you, this may actually be a good thing.

Elderly Man Accidentally Leaves Entire Life Savings in Donated Suit
An Illinois man who kept his life savings in a suit because he didn't trust banks accidentally donated it to Goodwill. Now that has to be the most expensive cheap suit of all time.
The 80-year-old man lost nearly $13,000 in cash and Goodwill authorities say they believe the man's story and are doing what they can to find the money.
To make matters worse, the man also has an elderly wife who is suffering from Stage 4 cancer.
Store officials have gone through their donations and haven't been able to find the money. Some donations were transferred to another Goodwill store but searches at both have come up empty.
It is not known if someone bought the donated suit. The unidentified man's daughter is offering a $1,000 reward for the money's return. We wish him luck, and hope that the next time he donates something, he checks his pockets thoroughly.

2 days of hard core downwind wipe outs with head first neck twisting wipe-outs then I developed sudden dizziness falling and instability. Ambulance took me to ER. Thought I was stroking out!
Anybody else had a similar experience. Frightening
Treatment was simple with positional exercises and I was back to normal after 24 hours.
I think I'll slow down. Helmut or no helmut.

NJEA Backs 3 Gun Bills Pending In Legislature
New Jersey's largest teachers union is officially backing three of the more than 20 gun measures approved by the state Assembly and awaiting action in the Senate.
One bill would prohibit the state from investing pension or annuity funds in companies that make or sell firearms for civilian use. The other two would authorizie municipalities to establish weapons-free zones around schools and create a 15-member task force to study issues of school security.
The vice president of the New Jersey Education Association, Wendell Steinhauer, announced support for the three measures at a statehouse news conference Monday.
He said all three directly involve schools, students and school employees.
The NJEA says it also encourages the Legislature to consider enacting other measures to prevent gun violence.

European Commission Green Paper on the feasibility of introducing Stability Bonds
The Green Paper published by the European Commission today structures the political debate in the EU on the rationale, pre-conditions and possible options of financing public debt through Stability Bonds. Such common issuance of bonds by the euro-area Member States would imply a significant deepening of Economic and Monetary Union. It would create new means through which governments finance their debt, by offering safe and liquid investment opportunities for savers and financial institutions and by setting up a euro-area wide integrated bond market that matches its US Dollar counterpart in terms of size and liquidity. The fiscal framework underlying EMU would similarly undergo a substantial change, as Stability Bonds would need to be accompanied by closer and stricter fiscal surveillance to ensure budgetary discipline. Some of the options for the design of Stability Bonds considered in the Green Paper might require a Treaty change. Regardless of any necessary time for implementation, agreement on common issuance could have an immediate impact on market expectations and thereby lower average and marginal funding costs for those Member States currently facing funding pressures.
What is the main intention and content of this Green Paper?
This Green Paper assesses the feasibility of common issuance of sovereign bonds among the Member States of the euro area . Sovereign issuance in the euro area is currently conducted by Member States on a decentralised basis, using various issuance procedures. The introduction of commonly issued Stability Bonds would mean a pooling of sovereign issuance among the Member States and the sharing of associated revenue flows and debt-servicing costs. The Green Paper does not indentify any preferred option or way forward. Instead, the documents open and structure a wide public debate on appropriate next and possibly more concrete steps in this matter.
Why did the Commission choose to issue this Green Paper?
There has for many years been a lively debate in academic and financial spheres on the possible pooling of sovereign issuance in the euro area and many reports have been published on this subject. The sovereign debt crisis in the euro area, meanwhile, has significantly raised the focus on join issuance, which is seen by many observers as a tool for not only boosting integration and the efficiency of financial markets in the euro area, but also as a potentially powerful instrument to tackle the crisis.
Through this Green Paper, the Commission aims to structure and better inform this important debate.
What are the main options for such Stability Bonds?
The many possible options for common issuance of Stability Bonds can be categorised in three broad approaches, based on the degree of substitution of national issuance (full or partial) and the nature of the underlying guarantee (joint and several or several) implied. The three broad approaches examined in the Green Paper are:
These options present different trade-offs between the expected benefits and pre-conditions to be met (see Table 1 in the Annex).
Why does the Commission use instead of the term Eurobonds that of "Stability Bonds"
The public discussion and literature normally uses the term "Eurobonds". The Commission considers that the main feature of such an instrument would be enhanced financial stability in the euro area. Therefore, in line with President Barroso's State of the Union address on 28 September 2011, this Green Paper refers to "Stability Bonds".
What will be the difference between Stability Bonds and project bonds?
Stability Bonds would be an instrument designed for the day-to-day financing of euro-area general governments through common issuance. In this respect, they should be distinguished from other jointly issued bonds in the European Union and euro area, such as project bonds, which aim to enhance the credit standing of private entities that need to raise private funds for the large-scale infrastructure projects they promote.
What would be the main advantages of joint issuance?
The Green Paper finds that the common issuance of Stability Bonds has significant potential benefits.
What would be the main challenges or conditions for introducing Stability Bonds?
The introduction of Stability Bonds would indeed pose significant challenges and requirements to be met. The Green Paper identifies the more technical ones in this respect. The main issues are the following:
How would Stability Bonds be implemented in practice?
Numerous technical issues would need to be decided with respect to the organisation of Stability Bond issuance. The implementation issues analysed in the Green Paper cover the organisation of debt issuances through debt management offices, the relationship with the ESM, the legal regime governing issuance, documentation, market convention and accounting questions. These operational and practical issues, of which others may be highlighted in the forthcoming debate, would have to be solved once a decision was made on the principal idea and its basic shape.
What is the follow up to this Green Paper?
All these issues on the possible advantages, challenges, options and operational terms require careful reflection. The views of key stakeholders in this respect are essential. In particular, Member States, the European and national parliaments, financial market operators, financial market industry associations, academics, within the EU and beyond, and the wider public should be adequately consulted.
A ccordingly, the Commission has decided to launch a broad consultation 1 on this Green Paper , which will close on 8 January 2012 2 . The Commission will seek the views of all relevant stakeholders as mentioned above and seek the advice of the other institutions. On the basis of this feedback, the Commission will indicate its views on the appropriate way forward.

The Niagara County-Central Rotary Club will host the 30th annual Roger W. Andrews Senior Citizen Breakfast on Saturday, May 11, in the Niagara-Wheatfield Senior High School cafeteria.
The breakfast, beginning at 8:30 a.m., is held for all senior citizen residents (50 years and older) from the Niagara-Wheatfield area. Senior citizen attendees do not need to make reservations for this free breakfast.
The annual Senior Breakfast began in 1984 as part of the 25th anniversary of the opening of the Niagara-Wheatfield High School. Fred Barone, a long-time high school administrator, believed the senior citizens of the Niagara-Wheatfield school community should be honored for all the contributions they had made to make Niagara-Wheatfield a great community to live in and for their excellent support of the district school system.
The first Senior Citizens Breakfast was so successful that Barone and his committee decided it would be great to have an annual breakfast honoring the Niagara-Wheatfield senior citizens.
The Senior Citizens Breakfast has been an outstanding success, because it provides the opportunity for good friends to sit down and enjoy a good breakfast, socialize with friends and win many available prizes, according to organizers.
The Niagara County-Central Rotary Club has become the main sponsor of this annual event. Bill Ross and Roger Andrews, the co-chairmen of the 2013 breakfast, believe this year's event will be another great success.
The breakfast several years ago was renamed the Roger W. Andrews Senior Citizen Breakfast in honor of Rotarian Andrews who has been the main driving force behind the event during the past 30 years.

From WQYK 99.5
We all know that Carrie Underwood is very supportive of her husband, Mike Fisher. But she is actually not looking forward to a tradition that comes along with NHL players during playoff times. She is dreading the playoff beard. It is a tradition ranging back to the 80s, that involves the players not shaving until their team is knocked out of the playoffs or wins the Stanley Cup, and it looks like Carrie might be taking part in the tradition.
Carrie told People Magazine that she is "not looking forward to the playoff beard." So before Mike started she told him that he needs to shave close because even though "he always looks good with a little stubble, but it's probably going to get out of hand soon."
And what is Carrie doing to get in on the tradition? "I'm going to stop shaving, too," she said. "Just kidding!" With all her upcoming album promotion and fall tour, who knows what could happen.
Even though she might not be at every game, she still makes an it a priority to see her husband play. And when she can't watch, she has "to listen listen to the games [on the radio], and that's horrible. But I've…gotta cheer him on even if I'm just listening."
With playoffs and her new album, Blown Away being released on May 1st, Carrie is one busy lady. Find out more about her upcoming tour, here.

Allentown, Pa. – Joe Carlucci threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Ian Gimbar on a fake field goal with 2:32 left to give the Muhlenberg football team a thrilling 35-31 Centennial Conference win against previously undefeated Gettysburg.
The wild game featured more than 800 yards of total offense and two fourth-quarter touchdowns on fake field goals. It was the Mules' first game in 10 years in which both teams topped the 30-point mark.
Terrence Dandridge rushed for 145 yards and three first-half touchdowns for Muhlenberg (4-2, 3-2) against a Bullet team that entered the game fourth in Division III in scoring defense, having allowed just 41 points in its first five games. Eddie Hutchins rushed for 130 yards on only 14 carries for Gettysburg.
The Bullets (5-1, 4-1) came back from a 21-7 halftime deficit to tie the score in the third quarter, with Kody Smith running for one touchdown and throwing for another.
The Mules (4-2, 3-2) went back on top 28-21 on the third play of the fourth quarter when Dan Deighan found Isaiah Vaughn over the middle from 19 yards out on third-and-9.
Gettysburg faced fourth-and-goal from the 11 on its next drive and sent out its field goal unit. But Smith, the holder, threw to a wide-open Matt Brophy in the back of the end zone to tie the score back up at 28 with 9:29 left.
An interception near midfield by Gordon Prince on the next possession set up the Bullets to take their first lead on Robby Fay's 28-yard field goal with 5:43 on the clock.
Muhlenberg had a fourth-and-7 at the Gettysburg 15 on its next drive and set up for a potential game-tying field goal. But Carlucci, the holder and Mules' backup quarterback, threw to Gimbar in the left flat, and the linebacker, who also recorded two sacks in the game, ran untouched into the end zone.
Smith's 34-yard scramble on the ensuing possession set the Bullets up at the Muhlenberg 34. But Smith was called for intentional grounding while getting sacked by Jeremey Thomas, putting Gettysburg in a long-yardage situation. On third-and-11, Smith scrambled away from pressure and heaved the ball to the left sideline, where Mule defensive back Darnell Davis wrestled the ball away from the intended receiver with 39.9 seconds left for a game-sealing interception.
Smith finished the game 19-of-31 for 211 yards and three touchdowns, two of which went to Brophy. Larry DelViscio led the Bullet defense with 19 tackles.
Deighan passed for 161 yards for Muhlenberg, completing 13 of 26 passes. Greg DeLade made a team-high nine tackles, while Thomas notched 3½ tackles for loss.

Barnes gives Waratahs an early headache after straining knee
THE Waratahs' season has suffered an early blow with playmaker Berrick Barnes likely to miss the first few rounds of the Super Rugby season.
Barnes hurt his knee in a NSW training session with Sydney University on Tuesday and will miss the side's final trial match against the Crusaders at Allianz Stadium next week.
Coach Michael Cheika said on Thursday he thought the Wallabies back would be ready for the Waratahs' season opener against the Reds on February 23.
But backs coach Daryl Gibson on Friday said Barnes had strained his posterior cruciate ligament and would likely miss ''the first few rounds''.
The news is a blow for Barnes, who was an important part of the Wallabies successful spring tour to Europe after his recovery from a punctured lung. He has looked impressive in training throughout this week and said on Monday he was hoping for a strong season with the Waratahs, and that he had put his hand up for selection at No. 10 or No. 12.
''Berrick can play a number of positions and has shown that he's very adept at a number and so he's obviously a candidate for that fly-half position,'' said Gibson, who did not travel with the squad to Auckland. ''It's unfortunate he's sustained that knee injury, he'll be unlikely to be involved in the first few rounds.''
Bernard Foley appears the obvious starting choice for Cheika at five-eighth.
New recruit Ben Volavola, who was a star for Southern Districts in their march to the Shute Shield grand final last year, also stands to benefit from Barnes's absence.
''It's going to put [Barnes] a bit behind the eight-ball because all the other lads will have had a practice match and put their hands up for a spot,'' Cheika said.
''Berrick still hasn't learnt the fact that he's a distributor and he's got to pass the ball and not run into 10 forwards at once, which he chose to do for some reason.
''It's part of him you like as a player because he's a tough guy and he wants to do as much as he possibly can, so you can't complain about it when he actually does it. In a game, you want him to be that type of character, it's his personality to get stuck in there.''
The Waratahs will get a tough trial next week when the Crusaders travel to Sydney with returning All Blacks Dan Carter, Israel Dagg, Kieran Read and Sam Whitelock.
Gibson, who has been an assistant coach at the Crusaders for the past four seasons, said he was preparing the side for a game played with the Canterbury side's trademark pace and width. ''I would definitely look for the Crusaders to spread the ball and really use the width of the field,'' he said.
Waratahs v Crusaders at Allianz Stadium on Thursday, February 14. Kick-off 7.30pm. Tickets from ticketek.com.au priced at $20 for adults, $10 for children and $40 for families. Free entry to Waratahs members with valid membership card.
Georgina Robinson is the chief rugby reporter for The Sydney Morning Herald.

Hi Tim,
I've had an smallish issue with the Linux version since using it but not got around to reporting it but thought I'd mention it now.
I'm using BibleAnalyzer primarily on my Asus Eee PC which has a resolution of 1024x600. What I find is that the Bible Analyzer window when maximised is not fitting the window properly but the bottom x-pixels are not seen (as though the window was longer than the screen). Not sure how better to describe it.
If I connect my external monitor which I have running at 1680x1050 the layout of the window is fine. So I assume it's just a support issue of the particular resolution. Is it possible to add the 1024x600 resolution to the supported resolutions of the window please at some stage?
Many thanks

This delightful and complete sterling silver chatelaine has five chains with sewing and writing tools. The theme is animals and flowers. The plaques feature a variety of animals and flying angels and the chains have little squirrels, birds and flowers on alternating links. This piece is from the collection of Genevieve Cummins and is the actual chatelaine that is photographed on page 206 (colour plate 205) of the book she wrote with Nerylla Taunton "Chatelaines, Utility to Glorious Extravagance". The plaques, belt clip and tools all have the English sterling hallmarks for London 1892 and the maker's mark for Stuart Clifford (pencil marks are rubbed).
Attached to the chains are 5 sterling silver tools. There's a sterling scissors sheath with sterling handled scissors, a sterling thimble case and sterling thimble (hallmarks rubbed), a sterling pin cushion, a sterling aide memoir and a sterling sliding pencil. The little scissors are 3 1/4" long and are stamped "Sheffield". The blades are tight with intact points and they cut paper well.
All of the silver is in excellent condition with no dents or damage. The thimble does have one needle hole in the top but is otherwise nice. It is about an American size 7/8 (14.75 mm diameter opening). The thimble bucket, pincushion and scissors sheath have their original deep purple velvet lining. The pencil works well and the aide memoir has five ivory colored sheets. The waist plaque measures 2 3/4" wide and the chatelaine is 13 3/4" long from top to bottom. The postage shown includes Registered shipping for non US addresses and insured UPS Ground shipping within the US.

#1 Black pepper bacon wrapped shrimp12-07-2012, 08:28 PM
Pepper bacon...Yum! Had some of that bacon left over and my son brought me some of those giant shrimp, so I decided to put them together!
It was a marriage that lasted until I ate them!
You can do this with regular shrimp and regular bacon too.
I put the bacon in the microwave for 2 minutes on a paper towel lined plate and covered with paper towels. Take out and let cool.
Preheat oven to 425.
Peel and devien the shrimp and season with some salt and lemon juice.
Take a slice of bacon and wrap the shrimp and secure with toothpicks. Arrange shrimp on a slotted broiler pan and bake for - these took almost 20 minutes, the bacon was thick and the shrimps were huge. If you use regular shrimp and thin bacon it would probably take 10 -12 minutes.
Made a simple tomato,butter and onion sauce and spaghetti, Yummo!
Look at that bacon!
Simple sauce
Wrap them shrimpses
:Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
I wondered why the rock was getting larger. Then it hit me.
That's some good looking bacon.
And you're always scoring free shimp. Seriously, have you ever bought any???Be Not Afraid.

Golden Globes co-host Tina Fey -- in one of many barbs directed at the entertainment industry during the awards show Sunday -- explained why she and Amy Poehler had been brought back to anchor the gala a second time:
"Because this is Hollywood," she said. "And if something kind of works, they'll just keep doing it until everybody hates it."
They don't hate it yet. Sunday night's telecast of the 71st Golden Globe Awards on NBC drew an average of 20.9 million viewers, the biggest audience for the show in 10 years.
Golden Globes 2014: Full coverage | Show highlights | Best & Worst | Top winners/nominees
Total viewership for the telecast increased 6% from last year, when Fey and Poehler -- from NBC's "30 Rock" and "Parks and Recreation," respectively -- first hosted. Compared with two years ago, when English comedian Ricky Gervais returned to the gig with his politically incorrect sensibility, the numbers were up 24%.
Why the high numbers? Perhaps because the gently profane show was unpredictable, drew a massive number of top celebrities to its Beverly Hilton auditorium and got a huge assist from social media.
The social media interest may have benefited from the night's unscripted feel. The show generated nearly 2.4 million tweets, which reached an online Twitter audience of 10.4 million people, according to Nielsen SocialGuide.
Winners Jennifer Lawrence and the TV show "Breaking Bad" drove a lot of Twitter traffic, but so did the moment at which Poehler celebrated winning an acting award for her role on "Parks & Recreation" by kissing U2 frontman Bono.
Several other surprises and goofs stoked the show's "did-you-see-that?" aspect.
The censors were kept busy preventing curse words from going live, but allowed an expletive to escape from the mouth of award-winner Jacqueline Bisset.
Later, when Leonardo DiCaprio mispronounced the Stephen Frears-directed film "Philomena" as "Philomania," Twitter users jokingly wondered about a possible "WrestleMania" offshoot. A similar frenzy followed a TelePrompTer snafu for "Wolf of Wall Street" stars Jonah Hill and Margot Robbie.
The telecast may have also benefited from the prominent showing of movies that have proved to be box office winners, as well as awards favorites.
"Gravity," for which Alfonso Cuarón won the directing Globe, has grossed $256 million in ticket sales in the U.S. and Canada. David O. Russell's 1970s-set con artist tale "American Hustle," which won the most awards Sunday night, has generated more than $101 million domestically. DiCaprio's "Wolf of Wall Street" has grossed almost $80 million.
However, the telecast was not a record-setter. The most-watched Golden Globes telecast since NBC started airing it was in 2004, when "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" captured the most awards and the show averaged 26.8 million viewers.
Sunday's telecast was also an improvement over last year's among viewers ages 18 to 49, the demographic for which advertisers pay a premium. Ratings for that group rose 2% to 6.5, the highest in seven years and matching its 10-year high.
It goes to show that there's nothing wrong with a live event that's a little unhinged, as long as it fuels interest with surprises, such as when Diane Keaton accepted Woody Allen's Cecil B. DeMille Award and ended her speech with a rendition of the song "Make New Friends (But Keep the Old)."
Or, as Fey put it when signing off: "This was the beautiful mess we hoped it would be."
That may be why the two comedians have been invited back to host next year's show too.
Times staff writer Dawn C. Chmielewski contributed to this report.
