Economic Impacts of a Farm to School Program
How a Federally Funded Program Discovered Its Economic Significance
Your story matters.
Here's how to tell it.
Economic impact analyses present a relatively new and unique way of looking at the complexities of a region's spending (though the theory behind the methodology is in its golden years, the technology is barely decades old and constantly evolving). And, like most other highly academic and technical research methods, the presentation of results can tend toward the bland, less accessible side of the spectrum. But researchers are relying on a time-honored technique for helping people get excited about economic impacts—storytelling. Here, we review the storytelling tactics employed by the National Farm to School Network to communicate the results of their economic impact study in an engaging manner.
Laying the Groundwork
The National Farm to School Network introduces the overall story arc for their report on bringing healthy foods from farm to school in the form of an executive summary. The summary starts with a clear statement of the organization's purpose: "To strengthen the connection communities have with fresh, healthy food… at schools." The summary then elaborates on the inciting moment of its story—that even though farm-to-school supply chains are thought to economically benefit local economies, there's little empirical evidence to support that assumption. But Farm to School wraps up its executive summary with hints of the resolutions to come through a more rigorous methodology and two specific case studies.
When it comes to interpreting results, Farm to School fulfills its early promise of relying on a more rigorous and all-encompassing research methodology. First, the results are expressed in as many specific and technical ways as possible (which helps solve the problem or comparability between this study and others). Second, to add clarity to the myriad result tables, the study includes colored text and orange call-out boxes which give context to specific bottom-line results making the numbers easier to understand and appreciate.
Building The Story
Methodology and Detailed Inputs
Farm to School dedicates a hefty portion of the report to framing the analysis and outlining methodology. Four of the nine sections (Economic Impact Assessments, Current Research, Methods, and Survey Findings) explore issues with past reports, idiosyncrasies of the study areas and industries, and recognized research—all of which shape the assumptions and inputs which the study brings to the model. The inputs are then presented within the introductory text to the results tables allowing the reader to compare what went into the model and what came out.
Upping the Production Value
The study starts from square one with the reader, progressing from a glossary and introduction (in that order) in the beginning before taking the reader through the latest research and then the results. This arrangement, if followed as prescribed, guides readers through the layers of research that went into creating the report in a way that doesn't leave those who are unfamiliar with economic jargon behind. It also creates a climactic build up to the results section with great dramatic effect.
Storytelling by Design
Farm to School opted for a PDF format for the report which performs as well online as it does in printed or booklet form. The navigational aids built into the report include full-page photos as section breaks (which make section divisions easy to spot when quickly scrolling online) and color-coded sections and call-outs. The use of color is restrained and consistent. Orange emphasizes key terms or numbers. New thoughts or results are signaled by green headings or frames.
Winning Strategy
Discussion Section
All the high notes from the introduction—the need to demonstrate the program's economic significance, need for more rigorous methodology, better understanding of the industry and its supply chain—echo in the discussion section at the end of the report, bringing the dedicated reader full-circle. The discussion section starts with a recap of what the report set out to find and what it discovered.
The discussion section wraps with a call for other researchers to repeat the first-of-its-kind methodology in the report for other geographies and school systems. The section even shares the primary data collection survey with advice on how to encourage respondents to participate. The section concludes with a call to other farm to school stakeholders "to use the methodology framed in this report to conduct additional assessments evaluating the economic impacts of farm to school procurement, so that we may compare case studies in different locations, involving different commodities, scales, and numbers of producers, and relying on different supply chains."
Conclusion and Follow-Through
How the study helped get results
The report got the attention of farm-to-school programs and practitioners all across the US and Canada. The findings of the report served to bolster support for farm to school provisions in the Farm Bill, and inspired new language in the bill which would make it easier for schools to require "local" or "regional" as a product specification in a food procurement request.
Folding elements of storytelling into an economic impact analysis isn't on its own a panacea. But those who have crafted their studies using storytelling techniques have found their work to be more engaging, memorable, and shareable for their readers. Though seemingly superficial, framing the analysis within a story has proven to be a humanizing and effective way of getting legislative traction for causes, funding for programs, and interest from communities on the whole and for the better.

Mastering some design software can take longer than creating the design itself, which is why Adobe Comp CC is such a breath of fresh air. Building layouts with intuitive touch gestures is an absolute snap, whether you're working on an iOS app, a printed document or a website. It's a fluid, robust way to whip off quick designs on the go and share them with other Creative Cloud apps, including InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator.
It's such a shame that Adobe have not made that killer design app for the iPad Pro. This is so handicapped it's almost laughable, you cant even draw a triangle to a specific size and bring an image into it. You can't draw your own shapes and bring an image into it - all fundamentals of design. I'm actually shocked this is getting good reviews and can only conclude that these have not come from, you know, actual professional designers. Sure you can make square looking layouts that you then have to take into InDesign on your proper computer to actually produce artwork from. Hey, you can't even have multiple pages so bang goes any brochure design. Come on Adobe, give us something better or maybe an InDesign Lite for Creative Cloud subscribers like myself who pay £50 a month! InDesign used to run on machines much less powerful that the iPad Pro. Affinity Photo has made you look silly already on the iPad as your photoshop branded apps are pretty lacking - I'm hoping they will do the same with Affinity Designer in the near future and then perhaps I can dump the laptop and my £50 a month creative cloud membership. I would rather use Adobe to be honest but feeling more like a cash cow to you these days.
I normally use my iMac but it died right before a design deadline so I gave this little app a go and was pleased. I managed to comp a quick, basic design to show the clients and then import it, fully editable, into Indesign to work on later. Since then I've also used it to produce a very quick design which needed to be emailed within the hour as a print-ready PDF when I wasn't at my desk, as well as to comp ideas during meetings to help those who couldn't visualise it.
Easy and intuitive to use, works great with my iPencil, too.


More than 70 editors and publishers have responded to NBC Peacock Production's casting call for a reality series about a small-town newspaper. Producer Cara Biega "noted that she was impressed with how amazing their stories are," says Stan Schwartz of the National Newspaper Association, which is helping NBC Peacock find a paper to put on TV.
Hmmmm…if the series does wind up being made and broadcast, I wonder if people tuning in will see something like this on their TV screen?

After you master the basics to teaching (see "Teaching Essentials"), spend some time tuning-up your craft with these helpful insights (see Gary Delashmutt's paper "Homiletics: Do's and Don'ts").
Make eye-contact. Eye-contact is a dominate behavior in animals. When we look directly into someone's eyes, we communicate authority. Instead of staring at the ceiling, floor, or above the heads of your listeners, look directly into their eyes.
Posture and appearance. Shoulders back, chest out, demonstrative hand motions. Don't slump or cower. Come across relaxed, but take authority. Your clothing shouldn't be distracting, so be sure to look presentable.
Voice. Louder than usual. When you rehearse, always have your friend sit at the far end of an empty room. This reminds you how much you need to speak up. Change your tone, speed, and volume. Utilize silences without being melodramatic.
Show emotion. Move your eyebrows, smile, squint, show your teeth. It's okay to get choked up at times, belly laugh, or raise your voice.
Balance heat and light. "Light" refers to the knowledge or content ("teaching"), while "heat" refers to your exhortation and inspiration ("preaching"). Teachings without heat are boring, and teachings without light are manipulative or intimidating. It's often helpful to ask your colleagues for insight on this.
Speak as a fellow-learner and as a prophet. If we only speak as a prophet, the listener will feel like we're being self-righteous. If we only speak as a fellow-learner, they don't feel challenged or inspired. Explain the indicatives and imperatives of your passage to keep balanced here.
Shoot for the "iceberg effect." Like an iceberg, you allow 10% of your content to be above seen, while 90% is hidden. Often additional points can be brought out during discussion. Leave people wanting more, rather than force-feeding them every detail.
Rehearse your teaching. This helps you to feel comfortable with your content, and sometimes as you rehearse, you see where the holes in your teaching come from. Often this is where you develop some of your best illustrations or remember to add key points you may have forgotten.
Don't disqualify yourself. Never tell people, "This is my first teaching" or "I'm not a very good speaker." Instead speak with the authority that you get from Christ.
Don't talk about your prep for the teaching. Instead of saying, "I heard an illustration for this…" just say the illustration.
Don't radically change your outline 24 hours before you teach. Experienced teachers might do this, but it usually results in panic and confusion for new teachers.

OPC programming technologies are widespread throughout industrial automatization sphere. They were developed in order to provide open communication. Before the first specifications entered the market, equipment manufacturers had been spending a lot of money and time to create accompanying applications. This necessity disappeared on its own after OPC had been introduced. The standard provides an universal data exchange interface which is compatible with equipment of different producers and years of manufacture. There've been five specifications released so far. All of them implement a data read and write function. One of the most common is OPC DA. Let's break it down into details.
This standard is considered to be the leading and the most popular one. Its primary functions are data reading and its subsequent writing. The standard ensures a stable real-time exchange of information between different devices. It's suitable for working with programmable logical controllers, administration and automatization systems, machines, industrial robots and other engineering solutions.
• Data Call Back – implements a function of subscription to specific tags.
How to buy the software product?
If you want to buy OPC Server, create an account on the site and place an order. Free software with 32 tags is available for small companies. We suggest to download a trial demo version for testing. Have any questions regarding the software products? Contact us by calling the phone number provided on the site.

France and EU ready to face off U.S. tariff threat
Published on December 3, 2019 - Duration: 01:50s
U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to hike up U.S. tariffs on French products at a NATO summit that marked a new low in U.S.-French relations.
France and Brussels said they stood ready to retaliate if so.
Lucy Fielder reports.
President Donald Trump has warned the United States could slap high duties -- up to 100 percent -- on French goods if the two countries failed to resolve a trade dispute.
Trump's threat, while he was in London for a tense NATO summit on Tuesday (December 3), was prompted by French plans for a digital services tax on tech giants.
A U.S. government investigation says the three-percent tax would harm U.S. tech companies -- like Amazon,
Class="kln">Apple, Google and Facebook -- and also intensify a festering trade dispute between Europe and the United States.
(SOUNDBITE) (English) UNITED STATES PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SAYING: "I'm not going to let people take advantage of American companies because if anyone's going to take advantage of American companies it's going to be us, it's not going to be France.
And so we're taxing, as you know, we're taxing their wines, and everything else and we have a very, very big tax to put on them." Both France and Brussels said Tuesday they stood ready to retaliate.
This white-knuckle handshake was among many signs of a new low in Trump's testy relations with France's Emmanuel Macron.
They're already at odds over Trump's approach to issues such as trade and climate change.
If imposed -- a decision that awaits a January public hearing -- the new taxes would apply to French products worth 2.4 billion dollars, including champagne, cheese and handbags.
Washington has already slapped 25 percent taxes on French wine and cheese -- backed by the World Trade Organization -- in response to illegal EU aircraft subsidies.
Trump also lashed out at his European allies before the summit, singling out Germany for low defense spending, and Macron for - quote - 'nasty' comments about NATO's so-called 'brain death'.

BIDV METLIFE AWARDS 10 WINNERS FOR ITS 'DREAM FOR MY CHILD' CONTEST
By sharing their dreams with BIDV MetLife, parents win an EduCare policy giving their children a solid foundation for a brighter future.
HANOI, May 11, 2015
BIDV MetLife, a joint venture between Vietnam's leading bank, BIDV, and global leading life insurer, MetLife, today announced the 10 winners for its social video contest "My Dad's Story: Dream for My Child" .
In February 2015, BIDV MetLife launched an emotional video clip called , "My Dad's Story: Dream for my Child" which told a heartwarming story about the sacrifices a father makes for his child's future. BIDV MetLife developed the video clip because the company recognized the needs and aspirations of Vietnamese parents to give their children a brighter future, as well as the sacrifices they make to ensure that their children receive a strong educational foundation in their early years. The social media clip is part of MetLife Asia's broader regional launch campaign for EduCare, which had its inaugural launch in Vietnam and is also launching across seven other markets across Asia.
The video has touched people all over the region, engaging over 300 million people:
27.6 million people viewed the video on Facebook and YouTube
7 million people shared the video with their friends and family
268 million people have read about the video through 91 news reports
280,000 people visited BIDV MetLife and MetLife microsites in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Vietnam
Together with the introduction of the video clip, BIDV MetLife conducted the "Dream for my Child" contest in which parents were invited to submit online their own stories and dreams for their children. The contest ran from 27th Feb to 27th April 2015. Ten winners were selected from the numerous entries and were awarded 10 Gia An Toan My (EduCare) policies with total premium up to VND 250 million for their children.
During the two months of the contest, BIDV MetLife received nearly 1,000 "dreams" submitted by parents. The heartfelt stories written by parents, primarily focused on their children's well-being, and emphasized the importance they felt of giving their children a good education in order for them to have a brighter future.
Some touching examples of the "dreams" submissions included Mr. XXXX, a winner of the contest wrote, "Your grandfather had a very hard time as a farmer. I, myself, had to give up my personal dream to become an agriculture expert. I wish for you to continue my dream and complete your study in agriculture as young people are now abandoning villages to find jobs in the cities". The contest also highlighted the determination of parents to express their dreams for their children, overcoming obstacles such as lack of internet access in some cases. One entry from a sister whose younger brother lost his right hand in an accident read, "You are in grade 5th at primary school, and on a day close to the Lunar New year, you helped mom to squeeze sugarcane from a machine. The machine cut off your right hand and you sadly became partly disabled. Mom is a poor working woman who doesn't have access to internet to know about this contest. I helped her convey the message with the hope for a miracle to come to you." Another touching message read, "Mother died, father left home, with only a little child left and staying with grandmother who is in her 70s. A 5-year old child can't fully feel the point of living without both a mother and father. I hope you have a peaceful life."
Apart from the basic desires for better living standards and good education, many other parents wished for their children to have the right set of life skills in order to be well prepared to take on life's challenges, develop their full potential and achieve success. One mother stood out, Hoang Thu Thuy, when she wrote an open dream for her child, "There's a saying that history belongs to those who dare to dream. I don't have an infeasible dream of you changing or making history. I only wish that you can find a dream of your life and never stop dreaming to make a history of your own life. The dream can be as great as finding life in a new planet or simply living a life where you will never have regrets. Parents are still poor but will do everything to support your dream."
Commenting on the winners, Dustin Ball, General Director of BIDV MetLife noted that, "BIDV MetLife deeply understands parents' needs and wishes for their children. We are proud and deeply touched by the intimate and sincere stories and feelings that came out through this contest. We are delighted to have been able to create such an open platform for parents to express their dreams and we hope that together we make their dreams come true. With a Gia An Toan My (EduCare) policy as the prize, parents can start to build up an educational plan for their children. Besides, becoming a member of Gia An Toan My (EduCare) Club gives children opportunities for comprehensive intellectual and physical development by accessing educational development programs from Gia An Toan My (EduCare) Club's distinguished partners. We strongly believe that a solid plan will bring smiles today, provide happiness for families tomorrow, and help families to pursue more from life."

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 4
Sleep came very slowly for Ed so he was jolted out of an exhausted slumber when Shirley slapped him awake in the middle of the night.
"Ow! What?"
"I'm hurting so bad. I need a massage. Now!" she whined. He could smell the whisky on her breath. No doubt with a Percocet chaser. The pain must be bad as she rarely climbed down the stairs into the basement. He'd have to carry her back to her room.
Ed sat up and got out of bed and prepared to lift her. Instead Shirley immediately laid down in his place. She allowed herself a secret moment to just absorb the feeling of his body heat from the mattress and his masculine scent on the sheets. Because of his size and weight they'd bought him a decent quality pillow top mattress years ago from a guy with a truck who had 'found' some mattresses.
"My back hurts so much!" she moaned.
He was still partially asleep so he started to rub her back through her nightie but she cursed at him and told him to remove it. She struggled to lift herself enough for him to lift up the nightie but he accidentally brushed the sides of her large breast as he pulled the garment up. His c--k immediately woke up and he cursed under his breath. He got her nightie off but he couldn't see how hard Shirley's nipples had become from his touch.
He put his hands on her back and began his deep muscle massage routine he had developed for her. She whimpered and moaned and cooed under his strong hands and his c--k got harder and more sensitive the more he touched the woman's body. He had to sweep her ass length wavy brown hair from side to side so he could work unimpeded as he crossed her back. The ends of her hair tickled across her ass cheeks and she trembled with need. It had been a long time since she'd felt an intimate sexual touch of a man. The drugs in her system blunted the fact that the man touching her was related to her.
The pain shot through her again from her upper shoulders. She'd been struck in the spine just between the shoulder blades by a piece of suspended equipment being moved through the factory floor. That had been years before but her body had never recovered. The medical coverage was barely enough to cover the painkillers and she hadn't been able to afford chiropractic care. It wasn't in her health plan.
Ed was massaging on automatic as his sleepy brain dragged him back down. In his mind he was going over the material he'd read on spinal alignment. The body was just another machine to be repaired. He ran his thumbs up both sides of her spine and every time he felt a misalignment he'd push one side or the other or sometimes both. Her spine popped and creaked and Shirley was too stunned to speak. She was terrified at what he was doing but she couldn't speak as the relief after every pop was immense. He reached the point where the main injury had taken place and there was a major misalignment. Before she could even squeak in protest he pressed hard and there was a loud crack. The intensity caused Shirley to pass out. Ed's hands continued up on autopilot until he was sure every vertebrae was straight. He ran his thumbs back down her spine and everything felt right. His hands were on her ass and suddenly he was kneading them. His c--k got harder and harder until it was tenting his baggy shorts badly. He frowned and woke up again realizing he'd pulled Shirley's panties down and he was rubbing her deep in the cleft of her ass. Her hips were rolling and she was moaning.
Shirley resurfaced with the most delicious feelings coming from down below. Then she realized she wasn't in pain any more. None. It was completely gone. The delicious feelings were going away as Ed was realizing what he was doing. She was so close to having an o----m and she hadn't had one in years. A decade at least!
"That's helping make my pain go away! Keep doing that!" she growled desperately.
Ed's hands twitched at the sound of her voice but they went back to squeezing and kneading her ass cheeks almost down to her p---y. She began to moan again but it sounded a little more frantic now. She exhaled noisily and her whole body shook. He throbbed painfully.
Shirley gasped and panted through her explosive o----m and when it had finally subsided she felt something pressing against her leg. She sat up and realized she still didn't feel any pain. She looked down and saw the enormous bulge in Ed's shorts.
"What the f--k is that?" she gasped.
"Nothing," he mumbled, looking away.
"You dirty boy! Did you get a boner when you gave me a massage?" she hissed, not able to tear her eyes away.
"I'm sorry. I- I couldn't stop it."
"Take those off!" she said pointing to his shorts.
Ed's eyes shot up to look at her flustered and reddened face which he mistook for anger. He slid his shorts down and his c--k bounced free.
Shirley gasped once more when it was exposed and she grabbed it with both hands. Ed gasped.
"You dirty, dirty boy! Getting a boner for your Aunt Shirley!" She was growling angrily but her hands were squeezing and stroking up and down.
Ed leaned back to pull away from her touch but she just started to stroke him faster in her tight grip. The sensations were flooding Ed's mind and he moaned and shuddered as pleasure shot through him.
"You were thinking all kinds of nasty things about your Aunt Shirley weren't you!" she said in a breathy voice, her eyes locked on her hands pumping his c--k so quickly now.
"Wait! Some- something's happening… stop, I- oh! I can't hold it-" Ed desperately tried to get Shirley to stop but she just went faster and used one hand to rapidly stroke the top three inches and the head.
"OH FU-" Ed began to yell before Shirley slapped a hand over his mouth.
Ed's mind whited out as stream after stream of c-m exploded from him to splash over Shirley's face, chin, neck and chest. When he came back to his senses he was leaning back on his elbows breathing hard. He looked at Shirley and saw she was covered in his c-m but she was no longer holding his c--k. Her mouth was open and she was trembling but he couldn't read her expression. He thought she might just begin to scream at him but instead her voice was low and smooth.
"You are a wicked and dirty boy. Look what you've done to me!" She smeared her fingers in the c-m and rubbed it on her neck and chest. He wasn't sure how that was making it less of a mess but her glassy eyes never left his. "I have to go clean up now. I want you to think about how wicked you were. How you are going to make it up to me. Such a dirty boy!"
"I'm sorry-" he began.
"No! I don't want to talk about it. You won't speak a word of this… wicked act to anyone. Do you hear me?" Shirley hissed quietly.
Shirley stood up and wobbled a little. She wasn't used to walking without being hunched over and her o----m was still with her. With her back to Ed she stroked a finger through a streak of his c-m and raised it to her lips and inside. She shivered at the taste as it brought back memories of the incredible sex she used to have. She left Ed's bedroom with a final stern look back at him.
Ed was so distraught over what he'd just done he failed to realize that Shirley was able to walk all the way back to her room upstairs by herself.

The Weekend Report | DVD & Blu-Ray | Critics Roundup | Box Office Hell | Estimates | Friday Estimates
By Gary Dretzka Dretzka@moviecitynews.com
Posted Saturday, November 30th, 2013 - Comments Off on The DVD Wrapup Gift Guide II
The DVD Wrapup Gift Guide II
Breaking Bad: The Final Season: Blu-ray
The final season of "Breaking Bad" was greeted with almost impossibly expectations by critics, longtime fans and newcomers hoping to jump on the bandwagon before it left town. Considering how far the AMC phenomenon had already pushed the envelope on content deemed appropriate for basic-cable subscribers, it wasn't likely the show's five-season run would leave its audience hanging, as was the case with "The Sopranos." Indeed, twice as many viewers followed the final episodes as those in the fourth stanza. For those recording the show for future binging, each week presented a new test of their ability to ignore water-cooler conversations, talk shows and Internet chatter. This was especially true as "Breaking Bad" grew increasingly dark and meth-kingpin Walter White's debt to the devil was nearing its due date. The newest Blu-ray compilation contains the show's final eight episodes – what constitutes a season in TV-to-DVD packages remains a mystery to me – as well as a generous supply of bonus features. They include a funny "Alternate Ending," as well as a rare "making of the alternate ending"; extended and deleted scenes; several making-of and background featurettes; scene breakdowns; table reads; "evidence" and "confession" tapes; a gag reel; and commentaries with creator Vince Gilligan, actors Bryan Cranston, Anna Gunn, Bob Odenkirk, Laura Fraser, R.J. Mitte; writers Peter Gould, Gennifer Hutchison, Moira Walley-Beckett and Peter Gould, and various other tech supervisors and producers. All that's missing is a bindle full of "Heisenberg."
Lilyhammer: Season One: Blu-Ray
Fish-out-of-water stories don't get much crazier than Netflix's first original mini-series "Lilyhammer." After the beloved pet dog of a New York crime underboss is killed in an assassination attempt, Frank "The Fixer" Tagliano (Steven Van Zandt) takes his revenge by agreeing to testify against his chief rival. His choice for a new home under the witness-protection program is Lillehammer, Norway, which Tagliano remembers as being a nice setting for the 1994 Winter Olympics. In his mind, Lillehammer would be one of the last places anyone from back home would think to look for him. Once there, Tagliano makes friends and allies by fixing their problems and generally being a pleasant guy. One thing leads to another and, before long, the newly rechristened Giovanni "Johnny" Henriksen has carved out an organized-crime infrastructure in the placid Nordic community. Although he doesn't set out to do any such thing, it's tough to turn down the keys to the city when they're handed to you. The show's primary conceit is making Tagliano/Henriksen a dead ringer for Tony Soprano's cold-blooded consigliore, Silvio Dante, right down to the bouffant hairdo and alligator shoes. It takes him a while to adjust to the Lillehammer winter, which normally would require him to put on boots before tromping through the snow or trade his overcoat for a parka. Like Dante, Tagliano/Henriksen's face appears to be frozen in a permanent scowl. Once he finds a girlfriend and turns a local watering hole into a PG-13 version of the Bada Bing!, however, he begins to feel right at home. What he doesn't anticipate is the investigation set in motion by local cop and Elvis impersonator, Geir, who, while inept, stumbles onto just enough clues about Tagliano/Henriksen's identity to be dangerous. "Lilyhammer," which confuses the city's name with that of the character's late dog, Lily, is a truly inventive and entertaining series. It' second season begins in December.
Bruce Weber: The Film Collection: 1987-2008
Known primarily for his sexually charged fashion photography and advertising campaigns, Bruce Weber also has made several cutting-edge documentaries. The titles included in "Bruce Weber: The Film Collection: 1987-2008" are "Broken Noses," "Chop Suey," "A Letter to True" and Oscar-nominated "Let's Get Lost," a profile of musician/junkie Chet Baker. The documentaries are distinguished by a fascinating mix of melancholy jazz vocals and instrumentals, color-modulated footage and photographs, and revealing interviews with artists who live outside the mainstream. Made in the emotional maelstrom of a post-9/11 world, "A Letter to True" is framed by a letter written as if to a son or daughter, but, instead, to the youngest of his prized pet Labradors. "Broken Noses" is about former Olympic contender and prizefighter Andy Minsker, whose mission it's become to use boxing as a tool to keep boys in his Oregon home town on the straight-and-narrow path. The juxtaposition of cool jazz and boxers, some of whom bear a striking resemblance to Baker or James Dean, is as tantalizing as it is unexpected. "Chop Suey" interweaves mini-profiles of Frances Faye, Diana Vreeland, Jan-Michael Vincent, Robert Mitchum (singing!) and wrestler-turned-model Peter Johnson (think a young Matt Dillon). The films are as "beat" as anything by Jack Kerouac or Allen Ginsburg. "Let's Gets Lost" is also available individually, from Docurama.
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy: Unrated Rich Mahogany Edition: Blu-ray
In anticipation of the December 18 launch of "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues," Paramount has sent out "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy: Unrated Rich Mahogany Edition." It includes the 94-minute theatrical cut, a 97-minute extended cut and the feature-length "Wake Up, Ron Burgundy," which is comprised entirely of deleted, alternate and leftover material. It's described as "the chaff from the wheat, the skim from the milk, the pudding from the all-you-can-eat lobster buffet." Anyone who's seen more than one Will Ferrell comedy, or watched more than five minutes of a local newscast, pretty much knew what to expect going into "The Legend of Ron Burgundy." For most of the second half of the 20th Century, television news outlets were bastions of male chauvinism, inconsequential journalism and plastic hairdos. The hiring of a pretty blond reporter, played to perfection by Christina Applegate, brings out the worst in the good-ol'-boys at San Diego's dominant Channel 4 News. Before demonstrating her superior news-reading skills, none of them could imagine a woman in anchor seat. They think she's there simply for their horny hijinks. Inexplicably, Veronica Corningstone falls for Burgundy after hearing him play "jazz flute" at a local Mexican restaurant. As it turns out, they have more in common with each other than anyone else in the newsroom. They fall in love, but only until her ambitions clash with his, and it sends Burgundy into a tailspin. If "Anchorman" hasn't aged well, it's only because a decade's worth of look-alike satires — featuring such crowd-pleasers as Ferrell, Paul Rudd, David Koechner, Steve Carrell, John C. Reilly, Ben Stiller and Jack Black – have diluted the stream of dumb-and-dumber comedies. It will be interesting to see if "Anchorman 2" suffers sophomore slump, as have so many other anxiously anticipated sequels and prequels. Besides a coupon for a free movie ticket, the bonus package adds "anti-commentary" tracks, 36 deleted and extended scenes, a blooper reel, "Afternoon Delight" music video, Burgundy's "ESPN Sports Center" audition tape, five PSA's, cast auditions, read-throughs and trading cards.
Rutles: The Rutles Anthology: Blu-Ray
Six years before "This Is Spinal Tap" skewered the conventions of the heavy-metal scene, but a full decade after Frank Zappa's "We're Only in It for the Money" lampooned Beatlemania, Eric Idle decided the time was right for another such parody of rock 'n' roll. Monty Python was between projects and Idle must have sensed a vacuum for the troupe's special blend of satire and sketch comedy. The Beatles themselves had, years before, gone their separate ways and the void the Liverpudlians left behind was even greater. As would become typical of such mockumentaries, the idea for a stand-alone spoof was grown from a small seed. The Rutles originally began as a sketch on Idle's UK show, "Rutland Weekend Television," showing the band playing a slower version of "I Must Be in Love" in their movie "A Hard Day's Rut." In it, Idle played guitarist Dirk McQuickly to Neil Innes' Ron Nasty. After the bit was shown on "Saturday Night Life," Lorne Michaels decided it might make a good made-for-TV, with members of the original "SNL" cast sprinkled into the ensemble. And, thus, "The Rutles: All You Need Is Cash" was born. Twenty-three years later, "The Rutles 2: Can't Buy Me Lunch" revisited Rutlemania, but, this time, through more jaundiced eyes. Among the celebrities interviewed for the sequel were David Bowie, Billy Connolly, Carrie Fisher, Jewel, Steve Martin, Mick Nichols, Conan O'Brien, Salman Rushdie, Tom Hanks, Graham Nash, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, Garry Shandling and Robin Williams. (Cameos in the original were supplied by, among others, Bowie, Mick Jagger, Michael Palin, George Harrison, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray and Ron Wood. "The Rutles Anthology" is comprised of both features, the original "Rutland Weekend" sketch and a new interview with Idle. The music isn't bad, either.
Mystery Science Theater 3000: 25th Anniversary Edition
If it's true that "no one in Hollywood sets out to make a bad movie," explain how "Mystery Science Theater 3000" lasted as long as it did, without running out of material to ridicule. It's entirely possible that "Moon Zero Two," "The Day the Earth Froze," "The Leech Woman," "Gorgo," "Mitchell" and "The Brain That Wouldn't Die!" would have been allowed to live out their natural lives in Saturday matinees and drive-ins, then be resurrected on the same late-night TV shows that inspired SCTV's "Monster Chiller Horror Theater." Almost no one, especially the stars who had scratched the titles off of their resumes, would be sad to see them go. With the introduction cable television and VHS cassettes, such cheeseball movies were repurposed to fill the need for inexpensive titles available for further exploitation. The cost to show them – if rights could be determined with any exactitude – ran from cheap to non-existent. In 1988, Joel Hodgson and a few other Minneapolis movie geeks came up with a bright new way to replicate the urban moviegoing experience by adding a running commentary track, supplied by robot puppets and doomed astronaut Joel Robinson. Instead of merely being lost in space, the unfortunate dweebs were force-fed some of the worst sci-fi and horror flicks ever made. It wasn't long before Twin Cities viewers discovered for themselves how funny the crew's crude comments could be and would try to top them with jabs of their own. "MST3K" would go national on Comedy Channel/Comedy Central and, later, the Sci-Fi Channel. By the end of its 11-year run, "MST3K" logged 197 episodes and a feature-length movie. The series won a Peabody Award in 1993 and was nominated for two Emmys. DVD technology would extend the show's expiration date another 14 years. The movies in the "25th Anniversary Edition" coincide roughly with the transfer of power from Hodgson to Mike Nelson, as well as a noticeable improvement in production values. The package also includes the three-part documentary "Return to Eden Prairie: 25 Years of 'Mystery Science Theater 3000"; "Ninth Wonder of the World: The Making Of Gorgo"; "Last Flight of Joel Robinson"; "Life After MST3K: Mary Jo Pehl"; "MST Hour" wraps; the opinions of Leonard Maltin; an interview with Marilyn Neilson; original trailers; and four exclusive mini-posters by artist Steve Vance. It's available in a limited-edition collector's tin, as well.
Argo: Declassified Extended Edition: Blu-ray
With all of the attention being paid the newly announced deal on nuclear weapons between Iran and United States, the arrival of "Argo: Declassified Extended Edition" could hardly have been better timed. The first Blu-ray release of the 2013 Best Picture winner contained only glorified EPK's as bonus featurettes. Fans who waited patiently for an "extended cut" edition have been rewarded with a package worthy of the film's prestige. The Blu-ray "Declassified" edition includes the 120-minute theatrical version and a 130-minute extended cut supervised by director/star Ben Affleck. I can't tell precisely what was added, but the extra 10 minutes neither help nor hinder any enjoyment of "Argo." The set's second disc adds insightful interviews with then-President Jimmy Carter, CIA agent Tony Mendez, former Director of the CIA George Tenet, the filmmakers and other key figures; "Ben Affleck's Balancing Act," in which the actor/director faced the challenges of balancing competing elements in the film; "A Discussion With the Cast," with Affleck, Alan Arkin, John Goodman, Bryan Cranston, Clea Duvall and others; "Tony Mendez on Tony Mendez," in which the career spy provides an overview of his career; "The Istanbul Journey," about the Istanbul location shoot; "Argo F*** Yourself," a clever look at the film's catch phrase; "Picture- in-Picture: Eyewitness Account," from the first Blu-ray release, with commentary by Carter, Mendez, hostages Mark and Cora Lijek, Bob Anders, Kathy Stafford, Lee Schatz and USMC hostage Al Golacinski; commentary with Affleck and writer Chris Terrio; "Rescued from Tehran: We Were There"; "Absolute Authenticity," a short production featurette; "The CIA and Hollywood Connection"; and "Escape from Iran: The Hollywood Option," a 2005 television documentary commemorates the 25th anniversary of the "Canadian Caper."
The Jack Ryan Collection: Blu-ray
It's been 11 years since we last saw Jack Ryan on film. With another entry in the series expected in a couple of months, Paramount picked an opportune time to release the long-awaited Blu-ray set, "The Jack Ryan Collection." It arrives, as well, with the news of author Tom Clancy's death fresh in our memories. Alec Baldwin played CIA analyst Ryan in the tense 1990 Cold War thriller, "Red October," opposite Sean Connery's Soviet submarine commander. Harrison Ford took over the role in "Patriot Games" and "Clear and Present Danger." In the former, as punishment for interfering in an assassination attempt on Britain's royal family, Ryan's own family is targeted by IRA killers. In the latter, Ryan is drawn into an illegal war fought by the U.S. government against a Colombian drug cartel. In "The Sum of All Fears," Ben Affleck must save the world from a nuclear holocaust after a dirty bomb, allegedly planted by Russian terrorists, goes off in Baltimore. In the upcoming "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit," which isn't based on a Clancy novel, Chris Pine takes Ryan back to an earlier time in his career. I think it's safe to say that "Hunt for the Red October" would qualify for the best and most popular entry in the series and it looks and sounds fine here. The bonus features have been culled from previous releases of the film.
The Gene Autry Show: Complete TV Series: Collector's Edition
Although fans of Hopalong Cassidy and the Lone Ranger might disagree, the only cowboys who mattered in the early years of broadcast television were Roy Rogers and Gene Autry. If nothing else, the fact that they could sing and ride a horse simultaneously set them apart from dozens of other pretenders to the throne, including "Singin' Sandy Saunders" (a.k.a., John Wayne). Autry's diverse skills would earn him five stars on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, one each for radio, recordings, motion pictures, television and live performance. He made a name for himself initially by replacing Wayne as Republic Studio's singing cowboy. After starring in dozens of B-movies, he made an easy transition into television in "The Gene Autry Show." Unlike most other cowboys in the early 1950s, Autry and Rogers were allowed to keep their own names and exist in the mid-20th Century. They had comic sidekicks and horses that became as popular as any other character in television. Sponsored by Wrigley's Doublemint Chewing Gum, the series followed Autry as traveled through the Southwest fighting crime and maintaining law and order. Shout!Factory's "The Gene Autry Show: Complete TV Series: Collector's Edition" is comprised of 14 DVDs and a bonus disc, with material created by the star'sFlying A Pictures, which produced five popular half-hour Westerns: "The Gene Autry Show," "The Range Rider," "Annie Oakley," "Buffalo Bill Jr." and "The Adventures of Champion."
ZatchBell! Megaset: The Complete Seasons 1 & 2
It's almost impossible to synopsize a Japanese anime series in less than a couple of thousand words. They're so complicated, only teens and pre-teens are able to keep all of the characters and subplots straight. "Zatch Bell!" is based on a shōnen manga series written and illustrated by Makoto Raiku. The primary conceit involves a competition that takes place on Earth once every 1,000 years between mamados (demons) for dominance in their kingdom. In order for the many mamodos to use their powerful spell books, they need a human partner. Kiyo is a brilliant but aloof 14-year-old. Kiyo's father, an archeologist, finds a mamodo child named Zatch unconscious in a forest. He sends the goodhearted Zatch to be his son's mentor. It is then up to Kiyo and Zatch to translate the book together. The unsuspecting Zatch and Kiyo must defend themselves against the ambush of mamodo-king wannabees. The English adaptation of the "Zatch Bell!" anime premiered on Cartoon Network's Toonami block on March 5, 2005, running 77 episodes.

WWE, TNA, UFC - Tuesday's HUGE HEAP of Wrestling & MMA News
Date: 01/11 7:30 PM
Written by Stevie J
Monday's news is HERE. Don't miss Emerson Witner's NXT Recap and Ring the Bell later tonight at 10 PM Eastern, 9 Central! Here's Tuesday's latest news.
Taylor Wilde was recently interviewed by the UK Sun. Here's what she had to say about her retirement from wrestling and her time in TNA.
I had a couple of months left on my contract, but I made a decision pretty much when I first started working for a major wrestling company (WWE) that wrestling is a wonderful job, it's a lot of fun and you get to travel the world. In my early twenties it was very lucrative, but I told myself that when I was 25, if it was an industry I could see myself doing for the rest of my life I'd keep going, but otherwise it was time to hang up my boots.
I have nothing but good things to say about TNA. If it wasn't for my experiences there I wouldn't be the person I am today. But the way things were going, I just felt I needed a change. With the state of the company and the way they were using me, there wasn't a lot for me to keep me going either. I've done a lot of the things I wanted to do, and there aren't many opportunities left for me.
You can read the rest of her interview HERE.
Given their head to head competition with WWE and UFC in the New York market on Saturday, March 19th, Ring of Honor has wisely decided to move their show to a 4 PM matinee to avoid conflict as much as possible. The Raw brand will run MSG later that night, UFC runs a PPV at the Prudential Center not far away, and the ROH matinee will be at the Manhattan Center. Speaking of the Prudential Center, WWE will be there on March 20th with tickets going on sale January 22nd. (PWI)
TNA confirmed today that Karen Angle will be back on this Thursday's Impact. (TNA)
Perhaps the most startling news coming out of last night's Genesis pay-per-view wasn't that Jeff Jarrett planned to announce his departure from MMA competition, but that he would do so this Thursday night on iMPACT!, with his wife, Karen by his side.
Jarrett taunted his long time adversary Kurt Angle when he declared, "finally, the three of us are going to celebrate together".
For those of you who are not aware, tensions between the two have been high for some time, to say the least, since Angle's divorce from Karen in 2008 and her subsequent marriage to Jarrett last August. Thursday's appearance marks Karen Jarrett's return to TNA after a long absence. A former personal valet, who eventually had her own segment called "Karen's Angle", left the show in 2008.
There is no question sparks are gonna fly as Jarrett told Angle of his plans and that, "Karen was going to come to the iMPACT! Zone, whether he liked it or not".
Don't miss what promises to be a very "special" family reunion, this Thursday, January 13 at 9PM ET/8PM CT on Spike.
Valley 24 interviews Ted DiBiase Jr. HERE.
CM Punk referred to wrestling Jerry 'The King' Lawler over the weekend as "bucket list" material on his Twitter. (PWI)
As it turns out WWE NXT and WWE Afterburn already air via Sky in Europe, so they are not a part of the new deal mentioned in Monday's update. (PWI)
The Raw house show for Madison, Wisconsin that was previously reported as canceled due to the Philadelphia supershow on the same day has instead been rescheduled for May 28th. Tickets purchased for the original date will be honored on the new date. (PWI)
In case you missed the announcement on Raw last night, Shawn Michaels is the first inductee for the 2011 WWE Hall of Fame. (WWE)
The official website for Triple H's new movie The Chaperone has been launched HERE. It will get a short theatrical run on February 18th and then be released on Blu-Ray and DVD on March 8th. (PWI)
Former WWE announcer Todd Pettingill is among the finalists to get a co-host spot on Live with Regis & Kelly. You can learn more HERE.
The most recent Smackdown did a 1.9 rating, the highest since the show moved to SyFy. The show was #10 overall on cable and #1 in males 18-34, 18-49 and 12-34. It got their highest rating so far in the males 12-17 demo, males 12-34 demo and males 18-34 demo and their second-highest rating in the males 18-49 demo. (PWT)
The new Nexus shirt seen on TV is already available from WWEShop.com.
AJ Styles will be replaced on the upcoming TNA tour of Europe by Kurt Angle. (WO)
According to Wrestling Observer the NWA Anarchy promotion is on sale - and there are enough offers already that the promotion probably won't be shut down.
Shawn Michaels had this to say about his pending WWE HOF induction on Twitter: "Surprise! Surprise! Seriously, thanks to all of u for making my career such a joy. I will carry those moments w/me all my life. Thx 4 sharing it w/me."
Next week's Raw main event will be John Cena vs. CM Punk. (WWE)

Jim Ross has a new blog up with thoughts about CM Punk, John Morrison and Shawn Michaels.
CM Punk is ultra talented and in the span of a couple of episodes he has given me reasons to reinvest in Nexus again as I am curious as to how the Punk leading Nexus business plays out over time. More importantly, I'm curious as to what young athletes will 'breakout of the group in time as individual stars. Cena vs. Punk next Monday on Raw is a heck of a main event and good TV producing as it gives fans a week to think about the presentation and a good reason to make sure and tune in.
Morrison, who's star continues to shine brighter, and Sheamus had another hard fought, solid bout. Morrison is breaking thru but there are always fans who wanted that to occur 'yesterday.'
Raw was highlighted, IMO, by the announcement of Shawn Michaels being the first inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame for 2011. HBK is SO deserving and is arguably the greatest in ring performer of all time and let me tell you folks that statement covers a lot of ground.
You can read the rest of Jim's new blog HERE.

CeNation. Lots of posts about my language last night on raw. I do apologize. It was out of line and I was indeed fined. If I have offended anyone it was not my intention. I was very frustrated about being hurt and not able to compete. I lost my cool. I am sorry.
Next time I will use something more creative like "whoop yer crap locker!" Or "whoop yer dump box!" :)
Whether or not that's a kayfabe fine or a real one, who can say?

Have you experienced die-off symptoms before? These are very similar to "flu like" symptoms where you feel bad in general. When you kill candida, it releases toxins that effect a wide variety of things within the body.
The reason you feel worse on the diet is because you are killing candida.
If you have strep throat, than this is likely related to candida. I used to get it every single month for awhile and they gave me just about every single antibiotic on the market. This did not work and eventually no antibiotic cured my strep; I had to remove my tonsils. If you think you have strep, you should get tested for it because it is a serious illness from my experience.
Have you checked out the forum's protocol and food list? A possible reason you may have not reached a cure is because your diet wasn't strict enough, or you didn't take the correct supplements to heal the body and gut.

Q: data consistent in a desktop application I am trying to create a desktop application using eclipse-rcp. In that application, I use a ORM framework to load objects from database and using JFace-databinding to bind these objects to user-interface, so the users can modify data that these objects contains.
since the objects loaded, other users or other client may also work with the same data. so when user want to save the objects back into database, the data these objects contains may differs from data in database, the difference may be caused by my application or caused by others.
should I check against real data in database when I need to save a object that may be not fresh any more?
maybe this is a common problem in ORM, but this is first time I need to deal with ORM.

A: yes - it's not a bad idea to check against "real" data before saving. you may have a special field - last update timestamp, or increment count.
such approach is called optimistic locking and, since it is very typical it may be supported by ORM's.
