As you walk in you notice something missing….
No more Cold Stones Creamery in sight!
Oh, the horror…the only place t get some refreshing ice cream in this warm Cali weather will be one of the ice cream stands or settle for dipping dots…
Overheard from an employee that Cold Stone's contract with Six Flags MM ended in 2017. So both Cold Stones locations are vacant now. Rumor has it, maybe another ice cream place may replace it or a cafe or coffee shop. I am excited to see what it will be! Stay with us and we will keep you posted!
What would you guys like to see go in these vacant buildings???
And a restaurant closed.
This was Los Cuates Mexican restaurant next to the go carts. Per the sign at the window, we are redirected to Food Etc. by Goliath if we want to indulge in Six Flag's Mexican food options. I did not get a chance to try the food from this location I kept putting it off, now I guess we miss out on it.
Did any one got a chance to try their food let me know what did you like ?
Lots of construction going on inside Six Flags Magic Mountain:
The Scrambler is closed down, probably in preparation for the re-do of the bumper cars.
The demolition of the bumper car area has began.
Continued construction site on what will be the new Crazanity ride. Here are some behind the scenes pics.
And painting has begun on the new rethemed "Boardwalk" in the carnival game area near Crazanity.
As well as lots more construction going on right outside of Six Flags.
There is a very large lot behind Apocalypse that is being worked on by big trucks.
Speculation is that this will be a housing track – I would think the noise would bother some people as the construction is literally on the road right behind the Apocalypse ride.
For me personally, would have thought it would be awesome for Six Flags to offer their employees discounted housing, but who am I kidding? That's very unlikely…
What do you think will be going in behind Six Flags Magic Mountain?

About 15 minutes into her latest public television program, "The Money Class", Suze Orman advises that if you have a home equity line of credit (HELOC) and you do a short sale, you have a big problem. She explains the HELOC is recourse and that even if you do a short sale, the HELOC lender can still come after your personal assets. Suze is wrong...at least in California. And her mistake could make all the difference in whether or not you decide to do a short sale.
I'm going to give Suze the benefit of the doubt and assume she recorded this program before California law changed on this important issue back on July 15, 2011. But it is essential that anybody considering a short sale get an accurate understanding of this new law (if you want to find out how you can get legal help on your short sale at no charge, please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com). Click here to read my article published in today's North Bay Business Journal about this important new development affecting all California residential short sales and why every homeowner whose home is "under water" must understand the short sale option.

I feel drained. I'm trying to work, but it's really difficult to concentrate. I'd probably fall asleep if I were to stay too long in one place.
I wish I could sleep. Sleep, and talk to someone — preferably after I woke up. How did I get here anyway?
Took a cursory but somewhat-below-the-surface view of my life, and I have to conclude that I'm not satisfied with it. And I feel powerless to change it. I just feel like giving up and lying down, telling myself I tried my best and it's okay to give in.

A Daily Leadership Essentials Quote
from Veritas Leadership Journal at HeartPathJournal.net
Human nature being what it is, if we stand before our boss everyday to verify the quality of our work and the progress we are making in personal and professional development, then we become much more focused and motivated in our daily job and life performance.
"Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth."
( 2 Timothy 2:15 )
The Apostle Paul encouraged his protege, Timothy, to regularly present himself to God for review. This wasn't because God was otherwise unaware of Timothy's life and ministry, but because the voluntary frequent (daily perhaps) accountability with God would have a powerful daily effect upon Timothy's anointed professionalism, his character development, and his truthful and wise handling of the scriptures in his teaching and in his leadership.
( djh / "A Daily Appearance Before God" )

The beloved late matriarch of the McCartney brood had a photo credit on a t-shirt in daughter designer Stella McCartney's pre-fall collection, and will now be honored with Taschen's new tome, "A Retrospective of Linda McCartney's Life and Photography" this fall.
Sir Paul McCartney, Stella and the other children sifted through an archive of 200,000 Linda's photographs documenting the explosive 1960s with the Beatles and the daily life of their growing family to create the 288-page coffee table book from Taschen. Annie Leibowitz and Martin Harrison contributed to the volume, which will also come in 750 signed copies by Sir Paul, as well as two special art editions.
The Stella McCartney pre-fall 2010 collection featured a t-shirt with a screenprint of her mother's photograph as an homage the designer's made frequently throughout her career.

Less than 24 hours after dividing 5-4 along racial and gender lines, most Buffalo Board of Education members called the failed bid to oust Superintendent Pamela Brown old news and said it's time to move forward.
"I will fully support Pamela Brown," pledged John Licata, who tried to oust her Wednesday night after voting to hire her last year. "The board has voted. The issue is done, and we have to move forward."
Brown said Thursday she is here to stay and that she is capable of leading the district.
"I certainly am up to the job," she said. "I know there's been some mention of my not having managerial experience. I have about 20 years of experience managing schools and large departments in other school districts. I have managed thousands of people prior to coming to Buffalo."
But not every board member is convinced. Carl Paladino pledged Thursday to keep trying to oust Brown a little more than a year into her contract. He said he intends to reintroduce his resolution to fire her, is appealing to the state education commissioner to have the board president removed from office and may organize a rally of supporters in favor of Brown's ouster.
Getting rid of Brown is a matter of time, he said. If not now, then by next July, after the election of three at-large board members in May.
"At the latest, next July 1 she will be discharged," he said, referring to the date when those elected in May take office.
With Paladino continuing to push for Brown's ouster after past references to black female board members as "the sisterhood," the debate has taken on racial overtones. One Brown supporter repeatedly referred to Paladino, the Park District representative, as "Mr. White Man" during the public comment section of Wednesday night's meeting.
When the board finally voted, the result was split, with five black women supporting Brown, and four white men trying to oust her.
Both Paladino and those who voted with him denied any racial intent, while Brown supporters Sharon Belton-Cottman, Mary Ruth Kapsiak and board President Barbara Seals Nevergold say the divisiveness on the board is based on racism and sexism by one person in particular – Paladino.
But Regent Robert Bennett said that the crux of the matter is educating children, not race, and that the board needs to get back to that despite the fact that many speakers Wednesday night brought up race.
"If a person criticizes a person about credentials, that has nothing to do with color or religion," Bennett said.
Board member James Sampson said Thursday he didn't know if Wednesday's meeting was the start of a never-ending quest to oust the superintendent. "If Carl were to ask me, I would suggest that he provide some breathing room before he brings it up again," he said.
Much like Sampson, Jason McCarthy – one of two board member who voted against Brown's hiring last year – did not have a sense of whether the effort to oust her will continue.
"I don't know at this point," McCarthy said. "We don't have a fifth vote."
The mounting pressures facing the superintendent and district leaders extend well beyond the board.
Both State Education Commissioner John King Jr. and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo have expressed disappointment over the district's achievement levels, with King particularly critical of the district's repeated inability to submit acceptable grant applications and reform plans.
The District Parent Coordinating Council also has been critical. Most recently, DPCC President Samuel Radford III asked for a state opinion on whether School Board members should be removed for "willfully" violating state law.
Sampson said he is "very concerned" about how the district is going to operate now and about Brown's performance. He said it's up to the superintendent to set up a mechanism for how everyone will work together.
"How can a board that's so obviously divided continue to provide leadership? I think that's something the board, the board president and – equally as important – the superintendent has to address," Sampson said.
A lot of any progress from this point on depends on how Brown responds to the 5-4 vote, he said. He hopes she took it as a call to engage and listen to people and to find some common ground with those who disagree with her.
"That's the demonstration of leadership. This will be a test of her ability to lead," Sampson said.
Even though he pledged his support, Licata said that does not mean that board members will "blindly" follow the superintendent. He pointed out that Brown's proposal to hire former TV news reporter Lorey Schultz as a public relations specialist for $115,000 a year failed Wednesday night in a 6-2 vote.
The public can expect to see a lot more productivity and a lot less divisiveness from the board, he said.
Nevergold, the board president, said she hopes to heal the rift by working with McCarthy to arrange a board retreat as soon as possible with the help of the New York State School Boards Association.
"I think that's going to be essential," she said. The retreat would include the superintendent. "The idea is, how do we all work together, the superintendent and the board?"
Repeated efforts to dismiss Brown are a waste of resources and brainpower that should be redirected toward more pressing district issues, Nevergold said.
"Removing one person and trying to replace that person really creates a lot of turmoil," she stated. "Who is to fill that vacuum? What's the plan? And to me, that's a major question that people should be asking. I've heard some rumors, but I haven't heard a transition plan proposed."
If leadership is at issue, she said, specific problems should be identified, and Brown should be given a time frame to implement a remedy.
"That's kind of a mature way, and an open way, to deal with the issue instead of, 'Let's cut off her head,' " Nevergold said. She also said she recognizes that Paladino is angry with her, but she said she will continue to reach out to him despite what she described as his rhetoric, name-calling and misrepresentation.
Board member Theresa Harris-Tigg said she believes the district is headed in the right direction and that the "sideshows are behind us."
"The decision has been made. We have a superintendent. She has a contract. We have to move forward so that we are supporting our children," Harris-Tigg said. "Does that mean that as individual board members we're not looking from our own lenses? Does that mean we will never disagree? Sure, we'll disagree, but we're going to have to move forward. We have to get things done."
Her comments echoed sentiments from Bennett, who said all of the board members are going to have to focus on issues besides personalities and that the conversation has to turn to the fundamental issues of learning.
"I don't think they have much of a choice," the state regent said. "I think the conversation must turn quickly as to whether the children in our care are getting a sound education, and many indicators say that's not happening."
Brown said that even though district officials sometimes disagree, she will keep focusing on the needs of children. But her job performance will still be scrutinized.
"She's on watch right now. She's one vote away from being terminated. I'd be very concerned if I were her," McCarthy said, adding that he hears from teachers and principals daily who feel "they don't have somebody who's got their back."
He said he's not sure if Brown can meet the challenges of providing better leadership and improving student performance.
"I'm not confident. That's why I voted the way I did. If I was confident ... I would have voted for her," he said. "She's got to convince me otherwise."

Visit Music Notes to let A Plus "note" the new songs, videos, and artists you should be paying attention to, as well as discuss noteworthy performances by veterans and rookies at award and talent shows.
This week marked the semifinals of America's Got Talent season 13, and Courtney Hadwin once again proved why she's a frontrunner. The 14-year-old, who earned the Golden Buzzer in her audition, brought down the house with a cover of Steppenwolf's "Born to Be Wild" that totally lived up to its name.
From her rock 'n' roll scream to her energetic dance moves, Hadwin totally owned the stage. Whether you're a fan of her style or not, there's really no denying the young singer has an amazing stage presence.
According to People, the judges seemed to agree. Howie Mandel (who hit the Golden Buzzer for Hadwin and compared her to Janis Joplin) told her, "My prediction is you're going to be the winner." Simon Cowell, meanwhile, pointed out the contrast between her shy behind-the-scenes personality and her confident onstage performance.
"You're a bundle of excitement and it's raw and messy. I saw you at the beginning of the show, shaking like a leaf and then you come out on stage and turn into a maniac," he said. "That's why I absolutely love you."
Hadwin herself, meanwhile, is amazed by the support so many viewers have given her. "I can't believe I've gotten this far, I just can't believe it," she said. We can!

Cultural Memory and Biodiversity
Nazarea, Virginia
MetadataShow full item record
Virginia Nazarea addresses the incompleteness of preserving biodiversity of agricultural crops through seed and genebanks, suggesting that preserving the cultural memory associated with the conserved species is also important. She presents a method for "banking" the local knowledge of the plant species and the traditional cultivation techniques. Indigenous sweet potato cultivation in Bukidnon, Philippines is presented as a case study for interdependent conservation of both germplasm and culture. Her method, which combines ecological and cognitive data with oral history, has identifiable benefits for the local population, including the provision of alternatives to modern, large-scale agriculture systems.

U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama, the man who won a nobel peace prize [sic] may start a series of events that could quickly get out of control. Just like a summer campfire in the woods can quickly spread once it is lit, so this military engagement with Syria can trigger a G-d forbid WWIII. Let us not forget, this military action against Syria is not ONLY with Syria. Russia, still a super-power, will most likely get involved as well.
Russia could decide to strike at American interests (Saudi Arabia) if Obama strikes at Russian interests (Syria).
According to one report posted at The European Union Times, entitled, "Putin Orders Massive Strike Against Saudi Arabia If West Attacks Syria" Russia 'reportedly' has made a threat that if the USA strikes Russian interests i.e. Syria, then Russia would strike American interests i.e Saudi Arabia (oil fields, etc) If oil fields are hit, it would affect a domino of countries who rely on oil from Saudi Arabian oil wells. A hit on Saudi oil will sky-rocket gas prices, and could collapse or at the very least, grind many economies to an insufferable condition, which could bring them into this war, and walla, we've got a possible WWIII.
No one knows the future, whether this military action by Obama will stay limited or not, however what we do know is that for the moment the violence in Syria is contained. Assad, if HE was the one who used chemical weapons (which we have not seen conclusive proof of), and it was not the rebels, has not used chemical warfare since Obama's war threat, and Russia could remove and accept the Syrian government's chemical weapons, to avoid military hostilities from the USA. Why then is Obama not exploring that option, or another non-violent option? Instead Obama is mowing over congress to go to war when things are so delicate in the region, and other countries are involved; Russia, Iran, both significant military powers. If Obama strikes at Syria, thousands and even tens of thousands more innocent people in this region can die. Syria stated that it would retaliate and hit Israel if America attacks her. Hezbollah will join in against Israel and has thousands of missiles it will rain down on Israeli cities. If Israel fights back in a defensive act, other Arab countries could join in the fray against Israel. Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iran, perhaps even China who purchases oil from Iran for its industries, could feel they have to respond if their economies or foreign interests are at stake. Many, many people in the world will be affected, and lose their lives if Obama strikes at Syria - when there is no real threat against U.S. citizens from the Syrian government.
Though we all hope war doesn't spread, there are no assurances that this campfire lit by Obama in such dry woods, will not shoot out sparks here and there and cause a massive fire that we cannot put out before it consumes the whole forest.
Lest we forget, World War I, or, 'The Great War', was started by less.

- If your Regimen includes Toner, use it now
- If the AMP MD Micro-Exfoliating Roller is part of your evening REDEFINE or REVERSE Brightening Regimen, use the Roller now; if you don't use the Roller, or if it is daytime, skip this step
- Apply Active Hydration Serum
- Follow with Intensive Renewing Serum
- Complete your remaining Regimen steps

Anyone out there who loves taking meds? What? The silence is deafening!
Most of us have a love/hate relationship with our pharmaceuticals. Here is a wonderful satirical piece from the Onion illustrating a innovative way to increase patient compliance. I'll let you guys read this while I search for my medication, Damnitall:
Wonder Drug Inspires Deep, Unwavering Love Of Pharmaceutical CompaniesNews • Science & Technology • products • health • ISSUE 42•10 • Mar 6, 2006
NEW YORK—The Food and Drug Administration today approved the sale of the drug PharmAmorin, a prescription tablet developed by Pfizer to treat chronic distrust of large prescription-drug manufacturers.
Pfizer executives characterized the FDA's approval as a "godsend" for sufferers of independent-thinking-related mental-health disorders.
"Many individuals today lack the deep, abiding affection for drug makers that is found in healthy people, such as myself," Pfizer CEO Hank McKinnell said. "These tragic disorders are reaching epidemic levels, and as a company dedicated to promoting the health, well-being, and long life of our company's public image, it was imperative that we did something to combat them."
Although many psychotropic drugs impart a generalized feeling of well-being, PharmAmorin is the first to induce and focus intense feelings of affection externally, toward for-profit drug makers. Pfizer representatives say that, if taken regularly, PharmAmorin can increase affection for and trust in its developers by as much as 96.5 percent.
"Out of a test group of 180, 172 study participants reported a dramatic rise in their passion for pharmaceutical companies," said Pfizer director of clinical research Suzanne Frost. "And 167 asked their doctors about a variety of prescription medications they had seen on TV."
Frost said a small percentage of test subjects showed an interest in becoming lobbyists for one of the top five pharmaceutical companies, and several browsed eBay for drug-company apparel.
PharmAmorin, available in 100-, 200-, and 400-mg tablets, is classified as a critical-thinking inhibitor, a family of drugs that holds great promise for the estimated 20 million Americans who suffer from Free-Thinking Disorder.
Pfizer will also promote PharmAmorin in an aggressive, $34.6 million print and televised ad campaign.
One TV ad, set to debut during next Sunday's 60 Minutes telecast, shows a woman relaxing in her living room and reading a newspaper headlined "Newest Drug Company Scandal Undermines Public Trust." The camera zooms into the tangled neural matter of her brain, revealing a sticky black substance and a purplish gas.
The narrator says, "She may show no symptoms, but in her brain, irrational fear and dislike of global pharmaceutical manufacturers is overwhelming her very peace of mind."
After a brief summary of PharmAmorin's benefits, the commercial concludes with the woman flying a kite across a sunny green meadow, the Pfizer headquarters gleaming in the background.
PharmAmorin is the first drug of its kind, but Pfizer will soon face competition from rival pharmaceutical giant Bristol-Myers Squibb. The company is developing its own pro-pharmaceutical-company medication, Brismysquibicin, which will induce warm feelings not just for drug corporations in general, but solely for Bristol-Myers Squibb.
"A PharmAmorin user could find himself gravitating toward the products of a GlaxoSmithKline or Eli Lilly," BMS spokesman Andrew Fike said. "This could seriously impede the patient's prescription-drug-market acceptance, or worse, Pfizer's profits in the long run."
"Brismysquibicin will be cheaper to produce and therefore far more affordable to those on fixed incomes," Fike added.
The news of an affordable skepticism-inhibitor was welcomed by New York physician Christine Blake-Mann, who runs a free clinic in Spanish Harlem.
"A lot of my patients are very leery of the medical establishment," Blake-Mann said. "This will help them feel better about it, and save money at the same time."
PharmAmorin's side effects include nausea, upset stomach, and ignoring the side effects of prescription drug medication.

Laughter is great medicine so get your fix at The Onion.
Heh, heh…I remember when the allergy drug Allegra came out, the ads never got around to telling you what it was for. They just showed a very happy woman surfing across a wheat field. I kept thinking I want what she is having…
Alas, I still can't find that damn prescription Damnitall, damn it all! 😦

Some patients hear about sedation dentistry and think "I don't need that—I'm tough!" Toughness aside, there are many reasons why people might seek out sedation for dental procedures. You don't have to suffer from an irrational fear of the dentist (or needles) to take advantage of its many benefits!
Dental anxiety may be the number one reason why people seek out qualified sedation dentists, but it's not the only one. There are many circumstances and situations in which ordinary "tough" patients might benefit from a deeper level and relaxation and comfort during their dental visits.
Long Appointments
If you've ever sat through a long, slow root canal and thought "will this ever end?" then you may want to think about sedation for your next long appointment. Sometimes patients who need multiple treatments that would ordinarily require two or three office visits can get them done in a single afternoon, thanks to sedation.
With light levels of conscious sedation, patients can often withstand long appointments without getting restless, bored, or irritable. While conscious sedation does not induce a state of unconsciousness, many patients find its effects so relaxing that they easily fall asleep, even while treatment is in progress.
Low Pain Threshold, Sensitive Teeth
It's a fact that all good doctors will agree upon: different people have different levels (and types) of pain they can withstand. Given that some people have sensitive teeth and gums, it's understandable that the same treatment might affect different patients in far different ways.
If you have a tendency to "cringe and bear it" when getting a dental cleaning, dental sedation may offer you a more comfortable experience at your next appointment. While some forms of sedation target psychological anxiety, other forms provide an analgesic (painkilling) effect that can alleviate the pain you've been suffering in silence.
Physical Restlessness
Do you get antsy during dental appointments, and often feel like you need to take a break to stretch your legs? Is the phrase "nervous energy" often used when others describe you? If so, you've probably had a hard time sitting still during dental appointments in the past. There's no shame in wanting to enjoy a more relaxed appointment. Oral conscious sedation can help both the body and mind relax, so you can enjoy a more restful and calm experience.
Sensitive Gag Reflex
It's a medical fact that some people have a more sensitive gag reflex than others. Individuals with this condition may be more prone to vomiting when they develop a cough and may even have trouble brushing their teeth sometimes.
If you've ever experienced a gagging sensation while your dentist is working on your teeth, you may have a sensitive gag reflex; Sedation dentistry can help you alleviate this problem. The medications that induce relaxation work on the body as well as the mind, so all your reflexes are more relaxed than usual.
For the same reason, patients with diseases that affect the central nervous system often use sedation to get through their dental appointments. For example, patients with cerebral palsy and Parkinson's disease routinely use sedation to help them stay still during treatment.
Aversion to Dental Visits
Some patients don't have a fear of the dentist, per se, but they really hate going! If you know someone who's ever said "I don't need a dentist; they're all crooks" and proceeded to let a cavity advance to the point of needing an extraction—you know this type.
An aversion to dentistry usually stems from a bad experience or an insensitive provider in the patient's past. There often is a good bit of fear underlying their emotions, even if stubbornness seems like the main problem. With patients like these, low levels of sedation can often make them feel more amenable to treatment. If you can get them through the door, we can often help "hard cases" like these.
Sedation Dentistry is Safe, Comfortable, and Easy
Ultimately, sedation dentistry has been used safely for decades and rarely causes unwanted side effects in properly screened candidates. Dr. Frank Straus has put many years into his training as a sedation specialist and takes great joy in providing his patients with happier dental experiences.
When you come to Advanced Dental Care of Richmond we will discuss your oral health and medical history, as well as the challenges you've faced in prior dental appointments. Together, we will help you decide whether you want to pursue dental sedation for your next routine visit.
Call us at 804-741-4177 to set up an appointment with Dr. Straus or Dr. Han. We look forward to helping you have a more positive dental experience at our Richmond, VA practice.

There are Farmer's Markets everywhere in California. Just about every city, has several a week during the summer and fall, and many small towns also feature a once a week farmers market.
Here is a link to a Farmers Market resource for California.
Here is a list of Farmers Markets from Red Bluff to Redding, California.
Farmers markets in Redding and Redbluff
The first list has just about every city in California, except Weaverville, California, and maybe some other small towns.
The Weaverville, California, Farmers Market is on Wednesday Evenings in the Meadow on Highway 299, next to the Highland Art Center. The market starts at 4:00 pm and goes until 7:00 pm.
Also when traveling in California, not on Interstates, but on the smaller local highways, you will find lots of fruit and vegetable stands. Highway 99 between Red bluff and Chico for example you will pass many stands. And also on Highway 20 from Marysville to Grass Valley, you will see one or two. And also on the highway 99 from Chico to Yuba City and Sacramento, Highway 99 you will find lots of fresh fruit stands, with nuts, dried fruits, fresh fruits and vegetables. Along with Jams, and whatever else can be made from the local fruits and vegetables. Careful driving on these highways! They are in the country and only two lanes.

Brief Synopsis
A country lawyer moves his family to Los Angeles.
Self-effacing Montana attorney Maxwell Webster comes home to his wife Julie and their three young children, happy that his law firm has just won a big case, because of his research and summation writing. Max has never argued a case himself, and Julie thinks he does not get enough credit. At the firm's country club celebration that night, Julie drinks too much and drunkenly proposes a toast to the over-looked efforts of her husband. The embarrassed Max does not get angry, but in the middle of the night, Julie wakes up to find him brooding about being a failure in her eyes. She urges him to ask his boss, Edmund Jethrow, for a partnership, and the next day he does, but loses his job. Figuring that now is the perfect time to start out on his own, Max convinces Julie that they should move to Los Angeles, where the weather is warmer and opportunities greater. Because the house they planned to rent will not take children, the family moves into a California bungalow that the realtor says is in a "fast" neighborhood.
Max and Julie are content with the place, except for the two telephones that ring constantly with people trying to place bets with the bookie who used to reside there. When Max enrolls in a course to help him pass the California bar examination, he uses the last of his money for one of the books. One of his fellow students, attractive Joyce Laramie, who has failed the exam twice, recognizes Max as an excellent lawyer and suggests they study together, as she has bought all of the books. Julie is not jealous of Max's new friend, but laughs when he says that Joyce, who works for a collection agency, could get him a part time job with her company. Max is incensed that Julie does not think he could do collection work and decides to take Joyce up on her offer. On his first day on the job, Max is shocked by the subterfuge the company uses against its "deadbeat" clients and is unable to collect a single dollar. At home, Max is frantic when a man named Eddie Tasling, who telephoned that morning to place a bet, calls again, demanding his $800 winnings.
That night, when Max goes to study with Joyce, he is too embarrassed to admit that he collected nothing that day and uses his last twelve dollars to make a payment toward unemployed singer Dorianne Gray's mink stole. The next morning, when Julie notices that $12 are missing from Max's wallet, he angrily says that he spent it, but refuses to say how. As they argue, Eddie calls again and threatens them, saying that he will find out where they live by going through the telephone directory. Later, while trying to think, Max takes a walk and comes across a bar called Eddie's, then confirms that this is the same Eddie because the man keeps using the phone book to make calls. Some time later, Dorianne comes to the collection agency to pay off the balance of her stole because she has finally gotten a singing job. When she learns that the balance is $12 less than she thought, she deduces that Max made the payment and assumes that it is because he likes her. As the bar exam date approaches, Max spends more time studying at Eddie's, trying to sabotage Eddie's trek through the telephone book before he gets to the letter W. After taking the exam, as Max anxiously waits for the results, he is upset when Julie confesses that she had written to Mrs. Jethrow hoping to help him get his old job back. Max angrily says that Julie has no confidence in him, and Julie lashes out, saying that he has only tried mythical cases "in the bathroom." She then says that she is going back to Montana, and Max leaves. As he walks out, he runs into Eddie, who asks if he is the man who takes the bets, and Max answers by slugging him. Now frightened, Eddie tells his companion that he suspects Max is part of a new gang, and the two quickly drive off.
That night, when Max does not come home, a worried Julie goes to Joyce's apartment looking for him. At first Julie is jealous, but soon realizes she is wrong and the two women become friends. Meanwhile, Max is in the nightclub where Dorianne sings. While Max drunkenly tells the piano player what a good mother Julie is, mobster Brick Davis comes into the club with Eddie and sits at Max's table. Brick threatens Max if he does not pay the $800. A few moments later, Dorianne, who knows Brick, comes to the table. When Brick is first rude, then pushes Dorianne, Max takes a swing at him and a brawl ensues. At night court, Brick's lawyer tells Max to accept a plea bargain to plead guilty on a misdemeanor, but Max refuses because it would prevent him from becoming a member of the California bar. When their trial comes up in a few days, Max, who has refused to see Julie while he is in jail, tells Joyce that he is disappointed that they have so little faith in him that they have hired a "good" lawyer, and determines to defend himself.
At the trial, Dorianne and other witnesses fearfully refuse to confirm that Brick started the fight. Despite this, Max's honest summation so impresses the jury that they find Max innocent but the others guilty. After the verdict, Dorianne apologizes to Max, and Joyce informs him that they both have passed the bar. Ashamed of herself, Julie runs sobbing from the courtroom. At home, Max and Julie make up and Max tells her that Clayton, a well-known lawyer who had observed the trial was so impressed that he offered Max a junior partnership.

Hong Kong developers talk up real estate, China Citic surges 10%, Japan awaits rescue package
In Asia Friday China's Shanghai Composite Index rose 1.6%, closing at 3,317. In Hong Kong the Hang Seng fell 0.3% to end the day at 22,498 and in Japan the Nikkei Index closed at 10,023 -- a gain of 0.5%
In Hong Kong, influential property developers joined forces in putting a positive spin on the territory's growth potential as the chairman of Hang Lung Properties, Ronnie Chan, told Bloomberg that property was a "good bet." Earlier this week Henderson Land chairman Lee Shau-kee predicted a 10% rise in 2010 for the already overheated property market. Today Henderson Land (HLDVF) lost 2.3% and Hang Lung (HLPPY) gained 1.5% as investors contemplate whether prices are under control.
Other big movers on the Hong Kong exchange included Li & Fung (LFUGF), which supplies masses of clothes and toys to Wal-Mart and Target in the U.S, and fell 3.8% today. Brilliance China Automotive Holdings (CBAMF) tumbled 7.4% and information technology company Futong Technology Development Holdings soared 38% on its debut on the exchange.
In China, banks led gains with China Citic Bank (CHBJF) rising to its 10% daily maximum after an announcement that Spain's Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria will pay $1.51 billion to raise its stake in the bank to 15% in the hopes of boosting trade between the two countries. Bank of China (BACHY) rose 3.4% and Industrial & Commercial Bank of China (IDCBY) climbed 2.9%.
In Japan investors anxiously awaited news from the government, which said it planned to unveil a stimulus package that could total as much as $46 billion. But the ministerial meeting was unlikely to happen today as the country's political parties could not agree on the size of the package, according to CNBC. Meanwhile, a fall in the value of the yen prompted shares in companies dependent on overseas sales to rise. Canon (CAJ) posted a 2.8% gain and Sony (SNE) added 1.4%. Word was also out today that Sony's CEO Howard Stringer was hatching a new plan to stream Sony movies and music through devices like the company's PlayStation 3 in an effort to increase the company's revenue.
Meanwhile, major Japanese lender Takefuji (TAKAY) nosedived 9.4% as Moody's cut its credit rating to below "junk." According to Bloomberg, the lender has reported more than $8 billion in losses over the past 3 years and is now desperately offering to convert bonds into cash for a percentage of the value. Investors can only hope that a rescue package arrives soon.

Hi everyone, yes, I'm afraid I did it again! I couldn't pass on picking up a couple of lippies the other day...eek! With spring on the way and the expectation of warmer weather soon (I hope!) I thought it would be nice to invest in a couple of pastel colours!
As you probably have guessed I'm a bit of a fan of Revlon lipsticks/glosses/balm stains...just Revlon in general! I picked up another Lip Butter, this time it's 055 Cupcake. These Lip Butters are so lovely and easy to wear, I know I rave about them a lot so I'm not going to give you a hefty review here, but I'll show you a swatch of this pretty pastel pink below...soo lovely!
I also checked out the Rimmel counter and picked up a lipstick from the Kate Moss collection, this is 101 and it's a lovely matte pink. It's just a tad darker than my all time favourite Revlon Matte 002 Pink Pout. This really pretty pastel pink is easy enough to blend with a gloss over it for a more shiny finish. The only thing I will say is that it has this very sweet scent/ flavour that kind of reminds me of watermelon and lots of sugar! I don't really think it adds anything to the overall effect, I probably would prefer a non- flavoured version myself!
Finally, I wanted to show you something knew to me, it's a Bourjois Colour Boost lipstick in the shade 03 Orange Punch. This was definitely a 'whim' buy as I don't normally buy Bourjois makeup at all! However this little lippie packs quite a punch. It not only claims to be waterproof and have an SPF of 15, but it also claims to stay in place for 10 hours!! That's quite a claim to make and so I am wearing it today...just to test it! Haha! I don't normally go for orangey lipsticks but I'm tempting the sun to come out with this one....let's see if it works!
It is very soft and hydrating on the lips, it feels more like wearing lip balm which I do like. I have quite high hopes for this making it into my summer makeup bag!
Here are swatches of the three colours, from left to right is Revlon's Cupcake Lip Butter, Rimmel Kate Moss' 101 and Bourjois Orange Punch Colour Boost.
What are your spring faves?
Love Bunty

Fans can watch it today on DIRECTV Cinema, before it hits theaters November 11. For those who don't have DIRECTV, we have the first trailer for this thriller below.
A divorced mother (Zoe Kazan) and her headstrong daughter must make an emergency late night road trip to see the girl's father. As they drive through deserted country roads on a stormy night, they suddenly have a startling collision that leaves them shaken - but not seriously hurt. Their car, however, is dead. As they try in vain to get help, they come to realize they are not alone on these desolate backroads - a terrifying evil is lurking in the surrounding woods, intent on never letting them leave...
A chilling and tension-filled experience, The Monster pits 2 ferociously strong women against one of the scariest and most shocking monsters. It will be a battle no one will forget. The Monster will be available for 72-hour rental. The 1080p HD (Blu-ray format) version will be available for $10.99, while the Standard-definition (SD) will cost $9.99. Here's what Hanny Patel, vice president, AT&T Video Marketing, had to say in a statement.

The supporting cast of The Monster includes Aaron Douglas, Chris Webb and Christine Ebaldi. The Monster will go up against Paramount's Arrival, Universal's Almost Christmas, Sony's Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk and EuropaCorp's Shut In. Take a look at the new trailer for The Monster to get ready for this thriller's release.

Mushin in my blood, it is where I was born
The lifestyle, the culture like a shirt I've worn
As a kid I was exposed to violence and porn
Fearless and desperate, taking the bull by the horn
Densely populated, dominated by thugs
Here, we chop knuckles we don't give hugs.
Prostitutes half-naked, parading our streets
As a kid, I would watch lick my lips without a sweet
Few churches, few mosques, more hotels and bars
Street-fighting, bottle-breaking, boys are kept behind bars
Many streets untarred, full of retards
Children treat adults with no regards
Street-hawking, child-labour haunt the little minds
Parents want to survive so they never mind.
Gun-shots every night, we all live in fear
Police pose with armour-tanks with enough gas to tear
Every junction, every corner, boys are smoking weed
Teenage girls warming beds just to meet their need
On sanitations, we play football on the streets
No jerseys, no boots we tackle hard with our feet
2Face from Festac, 9ice from Bariga
We are proud of our own Alabi Pasuma
Now the change has come, guys are back to school
Violence has disappeared, everywhere is cool
Teenage girls quit flirting, they keep their pride
They are getting married, guys make them their bride
Being born here is a blessing and not a curse
I'm proud of my hood, I don't know about yours

Stop the Car
If you are involved in an accident, this is your legal duty. Anytime you collide or get hit by something, you need to stop your car and remain at the scene of the crash. Don't get out of your vehicle right away. Instead, take a moment to observe what just happened and figure out how you are responding from it.
Stay Calm
While you are at the scene of the crash you will be under stressful conditions. When you first realize you have been in an accident, your heart rate is going to increase rapidly and your adrenaline is going to surge throughout your body. It is important for you to stay calm for you to be able to think well. Keeping a normal state of mind helps you to stay in control of the situation.
Make Sure You And Your Passengers Are Fine
Speak to your passengers immediately and ask them whether there are any sustained injuries they experienced so that first aid can be implemented right away if you have an emergency medical kit with you.
Call The Authorities
Call 911 or the appropriate emergency number to report the accident and make sure to relay the right and proper pieces of information correctly. A minor or major accident should be inspected by the police, it is important to make sure there is a legal accident report.
Take Pictures Of The Incident And Gather Evidence
It is important to have hard evidence of the situation and to take proactive steps to document your accident for references to be used by your lawyers. This is especially useful for property damage images, images of the positioning of the cars, where they were on the road.
Do Not Admit Fault
Do not discuss the automobile accident with anyone other than the authority and your lawyer. Discussing it with the other party could lead you to lose the case.
Take Vital Informations With the Other Party
It is essential to take names, addresses, and phone numbers of everyone involved in the accident. Description of the car, license and plate number can also be important and helpful. Also, get their insurance company and the vehicle identification number of their vehicle.

The renowned radical Serbian politician Vojislav Šešelj spoke about the arrest of Ismail (Ballist) Morina in Croatia.
Šešelj says Belgrade should not have been dealing with this issue, as this will bring clutter to the Presevo Valley."I expected the Croatian court to not consider this issue. What does Morina serves to us? Besides he will bring confusion in the Presevo Valley and in Kosovo? Rather than dealing with Albanian criminals who smuggle human organs, we deal with someone whose only success is the revealing of poor Serbian police and security services at the stadium where the football meeting took place. If he is extradited, I call on the Serbian judiciary and the Serbian government to punish the Ballist Morina for five days and not to be allowed to enter Serbia for 10 years and then to return him to the Albanian authorities," Šešelj said according to Serbian media.
We remind that at the request of the Serbian state, the Albanian national team fan is expected to be extradited to Serbia by Croatian justice.
Otherwise, Ballist will be tried in the Serbian state for inciting hatred due to the rise of the flag of "Natural Albania" at the Belgrade Partizan Stadium, where the match between the Serbian national football team and the Albanian national team took place on October 14, 2014./Oculus News

A 66-year-old Delray Beach woman won't get the $18.5 million a Palm Beach County jury said she deserves for losing her mother to lung cancer caused by cigarette-smoking.
In a ruling on Wednesday, the 4th District Court of Appeal tossed out the 2014 jury verdict against R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. – one of the largest against a cigarette-maker in county history. It called the amount awarded to Gwen Odom for the 1993 death of her mother "excessive."
"No matter how strong the emotional bond between an adult child and a decedent parent may be,
an adult child who lives independent of the parent during the parent's smoking related illness and death is not entitled to multi-million dollar compensatory damages award," Judge Dorian Damoorgian wrote for a three-judge panel.
The West Palm Beach-based court sent the case back to Palm Beach County Circuit Court for a judge to either reduce the amount or order that a new trial be held solely to determine how much Odom should receive.
The case is among thousands spawned statewide when the Florida Supreme Court in 2006 threw out a $145 billion verdict against tobacco companies in a Miami-Dade County class-action lawsuit. The high court ruled that smokers or their families must prove their unique damages at separate trials. While roughly two dozen have gone to trial in Palm Beach County, hundreds are still pending.
Represented by West Palm Beach attorney Mariano Garcia and others, Odom argued that the loss of her 58-year-old mother, Juanita Thurston, was devastating. Garcia convinced the jury that the tobacco giant should pay for spinning a web of lies about the dangers of cigarette smoking.
The jury awarded Odom $6 million in compensatory damages, but that amount was reduced by $1.5 million because the jury found Thurston 25 percent to blame for her death because she continued to smoke. The jury socked R.J. Reynolds with another $14 million in punitive damages.
Based on decisions in other wrongful death cases filed by adult children who lost their parents, the appeals court said the award was simply too much. While it and other appellate courts have upheld multi-million dollar awards for men and women who lost spouses, the relationship between adult children and their parents doesn't justify such eye-popping amounts, Damoorgian wrote.
"Although the evidence established that (Odom) and her mother had a very close and unique relationship, at the time of Ms. Thurston's illness and death, (Odom) was not living with Ms. Thurston and was not financially or otherwise dependent on her," he wrote. "Instead, (Odom) was married with two children of her own and Ms. Thurston was living with her long-time partner."

{Guest Post} Pumpkin Pie Granola
If you follow me on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram you know that I've been planning my trip of a lifetime to Europe for the past few months. The time has finally arrived where I'm departing and saying bon voyage for a few weeks while I enjoy the flavors of the Mediterranean. I've lined up a few of my favorite food bloggers and friends in-real-life to share delicious recipes with my readers!
My first guest today, is a good food blogging friend of mine, Sam from Sweet Remedy! We both share a love for granola. When Sam told me what she was going to share with my readers I knew instantly that everyone was going to go smitten over this! This is one of the first recipes I plan to make upon arriving home from vacation!
Hi Katie's Cucina readers! It is my absolute pleasure to be posting here today in Katie's absence. My name is Sam and I blog over at Sweet Remedy. Katie and I met at Food Blog Forum in Orlando last March and since then we've slowly become great friends and I hope to see her again soon! I joined her for a Google + Hangout with Christine of Cook the Story and we talked all about our mutual love for ice cream, I'm sure we could have gone on for days.
I was very resistant to summer's end but now that I've been baking and cooking with the seasonal foods of autumn, I can say that I'm ready to embrace the cooler weather, sweaters, hats and cute boots. Let's just keep the snow away for a good while, like last year. I live in the North East, the beautiful Hudson Valley of NYS and our winter last year was almost non-existent. I loved every second of it! Being a New York native and hating snow is a strange combination. I think snow is pretty, but I hate being cold and I will confess that I am one of those people that gets crazy when the roads get slushy. Everyone forgets how to operate a vehicle properly so I just stay off the roads. This can be a big pain when you have plans, or something important to get done. I do really love to witness the seasons changing and the Hudson Valley is a great place to do that. Plus, we have an abundance of amazing farms and local products that I don't want to ever give up. Our proximity to New York City is also a big plus as day trips are always a possibility.
Apple trees and pumpkin patches are abundant right now. The leaves are changing and everyone is baking the usual apple crisp, pumpkin muffins and fall-flavored pies. I wanted to do something that would be healthy and have a huge burst of pumpkin flavor so I came up with this pumpkin granola recipe to share with you all.
All the normal ingredients for granola are present in this recipe but with a sweet addition of pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice and pepitas aka pumpkin seeds! I was really excited to bring this recipe idea into reality and the final product was absolutely amazing. It was just the right amount of that pumpkin taste we all crave in autumn. Remember, if you don't have pumpkin pie spice in your pantry, don't worry. It is easy to make yourself.
A few weeks ago, I shared Apple Pie Granola on my blog and I thought I was a genius. I continued and made this Pumpkin Pie Granola. If I were to choose a favorite out of these two granola creations I would have to say that the pumpkin granola came out much better and was a crowd pleaser. I myself only had a few bites of it as I gave the majority of it out as gifts. Don't you wish we were friends?
Original Recipe from Sweet Remedy
- 2 1/2 cups oats
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup walnuts, chopped
- 1 cup coconut
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
- 1 cup oil
- 1/8 cup honey
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice
- Preheat oven to 350 °F
- In a medium sized bowl, combine the oats, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, pecans and coconut – set aside.
- In a skillet on the stovetop combine the pumpkin, oil and honey and heat on medium - low heat. Whisk together and add the pumpkin pie spice until smooth. Cook for about 5 minutes, stir often to avoid burning. Some oil will separate – this is normal.
- Let your pumpkin mixture cool and add to the bowl of oats, seeds and nuts. Mix until combined. Spread mixture across 2 baking sheets and put in the oven for 20-30 minutes.
- Take baking sheet out of the oven and let cool, breaking any large pieces. Place in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Thanks for having me, Katie! Enjoy your trip and safe travels. We'll miss you.
I love this pumpkin pie granola – now THAT is genius! (; And the Hudson Valley is a magical place – so much history and inspiration up and down the great Hudson River!
Oh yum! This would go great over vanilla Greek yogurt. I am going to have to try it out!
So trying this … made a batch of granola yesterday and wishing I would of whipped this up instead :-). Would be awesome on yogurt and even ice cream …
I cannot wait to make this! Looks so good, Sam

Fear gets in the way of so many things.
Fear keeps us from taking positive action.
Fear keeps us weighed down, causing us to achieve less than what God wants for us.
Fear is best friends with doubt and discouragement.
God is truly with us, knowing everything.
We can trust Him when fear wells up within us.
When it does, meet fear with prayer….
The LORD Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.
—Deuteronomy 31:8
