I have ordered from them and have got some of my seeds, but two packs never showed up and I waited two months before I started sending them emails and they will not answer me. Does anyone have any good ideas?
This is BS when they won't get back to you.

For the last five winters, vintage cars, old street signs and costumed extras have been a familiar site around the Victorian goldfields city of Ballarat.
Locals and tourists alike crane past barriers to get a glimpse of the filming for ABC TV's The Doctor Blake Mysteries.
The soon-to-be-aired fifth season of the murder mystery drama will be the last after the ABC announced the cancellation of the show earlier in the year.
Set in Ballarat in the 1950s, The Doctor Blake Mysteries follow the travails of a country doctor and his housekeeper who are drawn in to solve crimes that often stump the local police.
The series has been shown in 130 countries, and some of the complaints about the show's axing have come from overseas.
A petition from fans trying to save the program has attracted more than 10,000 signatures so far.
Noel Dempsey, chief executive of tourism body Visit Ballarat, said he supported the production company in its efforts to continue the show.
"We love the program and everything it does for Ballarat," he said.
"No matter what the outcome, we're confident that Doctor Blake's legacy will provide long-term benefits for Ballarat."
Star of the show, Craig McLachlan, who plays police surgeon Dr Lucien Blake, said the decision to end the show was baffling.
"The biggest disappointment was trying to find the logic in it," he said.
"I'm not blowing smoke up the show's derriere when I say that when the numbers are crunched, it is the most popular global drama on Australian television.
"The decision didn't make sense. When you're on a good thing, stick to it.
"The current regime at the ABC, they had their reasons [but] I don't understand them and it's never been articulated to me what their thinking is."
McLachlan's co-star Nadine Garner, who plays Jean, Blake's housekeeper and love interest, said it was hard to fathom why the show was no longer valued by the ABC, particularly as it rated so highly.
"It is a work of art," she said.
"Every frame has to be sourced from somewhere, unlike a contemporary show where you can just point a camera and the background's okay.
"You have to consider that everything in that frame has to be circa 1959."
In a statement, ABC head of scripted production Sally Riley said Doctor Blake has had a sensational run on the ABC and the time was right to go out while it was still on top.
"We have a fantastic final season still to come and we look forward to wrapping the series up with a satisfying movie-length finale, as we bid farewell to an Australian TV icon," Ms Riley said.
Series creator George Adams said the tele-movie, to be broadcast later in the year, after the fifth series ended, would "provide answers to many of the remaining mysteries between Blake and Jean".
Although filming has ceased, the show is not over for Ballarat.
The city's Sovereign Hill theme park is holding an exhibition for the next few months, looking behind the camera at the show's sets and costumes.
It will also highlight local locations and events featured on screen, including Lake Wendouree, the Ballarat Art Gallery, the old Colonist's Club and the Begonia Festival.
The display also recreates Doctor Blake's living room and includes his 1937 'Blakemobile'.
At the exhibition's opening, Garner said it was a nice way to end five years of making television.
"It's really lovely to walk into the town of Ballarat and see the show celebrated and feted and revered," she said.
"It's a real sense of achievement that we've made something that resonates."
McLachlan said the whole city had embraced the cast and crew.
"I hope the people of Ballarat feel a sense of propriety over the show, because they've been so welcoming in allowing us to be here on the street, closing their streets off," he said.
"They've allowed Doctor Blake to be created in situ and to reflect the authenticity of this town."
The Doctor Blake's Ballarat exhibition will run until September 3 at Sovereign Hill's Gold Museum and an "official Doctor Blake Tour" is also being planned.

" Instead, however, I come to tell of a movie that is so emotionally lacking, so frustratingly distant, and so boring, which is in a way the biggest disappointment for me.
" Eddie Redmayne is stunning in this film, as well as Alicia Vikander's performance.
" If the only thing you want to see is Eddie Redmayne repeatedly dressing up in women's clothes, and portraying him/her in a a single repetitive way (that means putting a wig and a dress on Eddie, and when another character looks at him, cut to a close-up, have him look down with his eyes closed, open them, look up at them with his head still down, slightly cocked to the side, then have him sheepishly smile then this flick's for you.
" The sequence where Einer is putting on his makeup for the first time is breathtaking visually and very well done.
" To me, there is no story behind people dying from archaic medical procedures ...
" I found the end very predictable (as I had actually predicted the ending about halfway through the film).
" This way, I found it rather hard to follow the film because it seems to be based on a difficult understanding of how transsexuality works, even though the actors delivergreat performances and the overall production value of the film is worthy without question.
"To make up for it's lack of story, director Tom Hooper (The King's Speech) relies on very pretty, almost portrait-like pictures in depicting the story of married artists Einer Wegener (Eddie Redmayne) and Gerda Wegener (Alicia Vikander) as they deal with the growing realization that Einer is living a lie as a man and really needs to be living the life of his female alter-ego, Lili.
" The script is so cliché ridden and repetitious that even an actor as fine as Matthias Schoenaerts can't liven it up.
" Though the film glosses over some traits of the real life Gerda, Ms. Vikander is stunning in more than a few scenes, which in the hands of a lesser actress, could have proved cringe-inducing.
" Supporting actress Alicia Vikander also had an impeccable performance showing how difficult it is for a women needing her husband in such a controversial and intense situation.
" It was a perfectly fine example of what in America might have been called 'Masterpiece Theatre' and "The Danish Girl" is no different, apart from being duller and even more conventional when the material positively cries out for 'edgy'.
"Its success lies upon that it presents everything in intense.
" Unfortunately the meticulous attention to image rather than screenplay (to me) resulted in a quite cold and un- engaging movie, where beautiful costumes, interiors and landscapes are the only highlights.
"I actually thought that this movie in the beginning was boring because Eddies character kinda looked sad and dull.
" brilliant ,, it takes up past the cliché of focusing solely on the sexual part of a transsexual .. i gives us a glimpse of the internal turmoil and battles with society.. Lily (the female alter) .. she was sweet, coy and bit forward and courageous at the same time.
"just more propaganda from the gender reinforcement police.
"While on the other hand, the story itself became even boring.
" He transforms from the artist to a woman in a wonderfully engaging way that is so realistic.
" Which is a bit sad when this is a story about such a compelling and controversial subject.
" Worth watching, every detail in the movie was just amazing, great performance by both actors
" A pretty formulaic and mainstream biopic should have been more hard to watch, especially in Eddie Redmayne is transformation.
" Few highlights and drab backgrounds will not attract me to visit Copenhagen.
" He is acting so much it is unwatchable at times, he does not even come close to disappearing from screen and I don't care whatever he went through, that's none of my business and nor should be anyone's.
" Even if it's based on real events, Lili Elbe as a transgender pioneer, it's just a story that made me yawn a couple of times during the movie.
" The intense rawness of his character's emotions transcends the screen.
" I know the film goes deeper than that and the real-life story of Lilu is an inspiration for many people who feel trapped in the wrong body, however, I'm blaming the treatment for making the gender identity something as superficial and predictable.
""-makes every moment of her character's journey believable with great nuance, from her strength and optimism to her confusion and loneliness.
" The dramatic moments were repetitive, it can't make up its mind which character to focus on, the historical accuracy is nearly zero and the soundtrack was embarrassingly maudlin.
" The costumes are evocative and pleasing on the eyes and the whole film is beautifully photographed.
" Much like Tom Hooper's last Oscar season gambit Les Miserables (2012), the film feels long; far too long.
" Beautiful evocative and special .
" The first act ends rather early and the third act begins fairly late and the second act was pretty long and did have a few repetitive moments.
" If Redmayne is totally convincing as both Einar and the film's eponymous character – providing another sterling example of how deeply he can immerse himself in a role – then, Vikander delves deep beneath the surface to explore a truly fascinating woman.
" Terrible story line, crap acting and just plain boring.
" Overall it's far from a great movie, but it's an enjoyable one.
" It's an interesting story, and the setting of Copenhagen in the 1920's makes for some fascinating sets and cinematography.
" The last 25% or so makes the film worth watching.
" Vikander does what she can with the role, but so much of the dialog is trite, ridiculous, and flowery when it really should not be at all.
" However, while it does manage to feel like a good film on the outside, inside its just a bland and emotionless disappointment.
" Just stunning and inspirational.
" This production was a breath of fresh air and also a very intriguing one.
" At first, encouraging Einer to dress in women's clothes, as her muse, Gerda realizes that she is losing her husband to another woman - but that woman IS her husband and the anger, frustration, confusion and LOVE she has for this person is vividly seen.
" All things aside though I'd have to say I enjoyed it a lot more than a few other films that did get a Best Picture nod.
" Slow, intimate and colourful.
" Some scenes stretch out far too long, leaving the viewer wishing the time would pass faster.
" Focus Features – part of the Comcast "diversity and inclusion" empire of propaganda – is calling this maiming of the male body "gender confirmation surgery.
" I find this fascinating because usually a person sees a movie actor which leaves you feeling that they were hired to be themselves in the movie, hence there is no such thing as acting.
" As a spectator, it was easy to get immersed in the story early on.
" As exciting and extremely rewarding as the acting of the main actors is the photography of the film.
" Inspired by a 1920s Danish artist with gender dysphoria who became one of the first to ever opt for surgical gender realignment, this Tom Hooper drama offers an intriguing insight into a fairly recent time when such terms were unheard of.
" Specifically, this is simple a boring retelling of the prose which was at the core of another of Redmaynes works - The Theory of Everything.
"Equally compelling, and even more magnificent in her turn is Alicia Vikander, who in just under two hours, solidifies herself as one of the most breathtaking and exciting actresses working today.
" I do think the film is well directed, emotionally intriguing and decently acted (although I don't think Redmayne deserved another Oscar nomination).
" A dull, overlong & horribly misguided cinema that's as insulting to the transgender community as it is to the legacy of Lili Elbe, The Danish Girl is worth skipping.
" The whole first act is all about this man suffering extreme confusion as he begins to question who he is, and whilst that should be the focus of the whole film, it feels rushed and therefore shallow.
" The Danish Girl is a forgettable formulaic biopic, but it's worth the watch for the fantastic performances.
" Perhaps its because we are in Oscar- season but, to me, it all felt a tad pretentious and (no pun intended) could have done with a few snips in places to reduce the running time by 15 minutes or so.
" The scenery of the film, the cities and locations within those cities, is simply stunning.
"Not so long ago, I would have said that Tom Hooper is making bland and tame movies.
" You could see perfectly the confusion and hardship this character goes through every single minute of the film.
" I also found it a bit confusing.
" And I must admit that it was an entertaining one(Spotlight and Big Short, I'm talking to you).
" TDG is exquisite, artistic, and incomprehensibly dull with little real merit to the real world we live in today.
" Enjoyable!
" OK, Hooper maybe wanted us to know this inner passage Einar made with himself, but after a while, boring and meaningless.
" It does take certain liberties with the story, compared to the truth, but most likely to make it more exciting on film.
" Sadly, The Danish Girl, while trying to be trend-setting and a wavelengths type film for the truly difficult realities for many, serves as a laughable and pretentious story of over-dramatic film aesthetics and acting.
" A movie worth watching dealing with an important topic
" A clichéd, melodramatic waste of my time.
" Eddie Redmayne and especially Alicia Vikander are so good that they make the unremarkable script mostly worth watching.
" I don't understand why others think the film being bleak, bland or cold is a rather bad characteristic of the film.
" Overly long at 2 hours, scenes felt dragged out to their max, which would have be acceptable if I had warmed to either the centrals characters played by Eddie Redmayne.
" Propaganda and 'The Danish Girl' .
"PROS: Movie colors; Costumes; Eddie Redmayne performance; Film lightingCONS: Cliché story; Time perceptionBEST QUOTE: "We were playing a game.
" It's overwrought and occasionally boring while pandering to an audience that will surely overvalue it's cultural cache in years to come.
" Almost everything, right from the very beginning, is thrown at your face, spoon fed to you repeatedly and it makes for a dull experience, were the audience member is never given the chance to be engaged.
"It did feel boring and slow at times but probably it is just me as I do get bored quite easily.
" Surgery seems like the only option to remove the ambiguity and confusion in their relationship – although Lili also risks losing her life.
" I was bored throughout the ending of act 2 and into act 3, due to redundancy and the extremely slow pacing of the story, that it had come to be.
" So in the end this is a very engaging film with a lot of emotion, great performances, is very well shot, and covers many themes related to being transgender that raises a lot of questions for the viewer.
" But, because he does not have quite a full movie's worth of material to work with, he does have a tendency to let his camera linger or slow pan as our two leads gaze out a window to contemplate the events of these lives.
" The pacing made me want to fall asleep, its as simple as that.
" The pacing of the film becomes tedious and slower than Einar's own physical change.
" Not even Vikander could salvage the final act, which was far too long and boring.
" It all feels rather shallow and slow and has a lot of pieces missing (as though a trailer creating cliffhangers).
"Redmayne is a good actor but he pushes the pathos button way too far to make for an enjoyable experience and I'm not sure people who belongs to the community like to be their lives seen as eternal reservoirs of sadness.
" Compelling based on true life events of Danish artists/married couple Lili Elbe and Gerda Wegener (Redmayne and Vikander make a truly dynamic duo and deserving of Oscars) who embark on the most personal journey - Lili's struggle in terms of her sexuality and becoming a transgender pilgrim.
"" Perhaps this movie would have had a greater impact a few decades ago, because the recent transgender process for Bruce Jenner, Olympics Decathlon Champion, to become Caitlyn Jenner has been so publicized that a viewer could take a "ho-hum" view of this sort of thing.
" That facial twitch and dubious smile he gives are getting tiresome.
" The characters feel a bit bland and all the characters that matter apart from the main two don't actually show any signs of personality.
" But I just think Eddie and the screenplay is a bit dull, it could've written in a more emotional way.
" It feels contrived and forced.
" It is a formulaic biopic that does little to stand out from other period pieces.
" In fact, the dull screenplay by Lucinda Coxon never allows them to act realistically to their life-changing situation.
" Thoroughly enjoyable .
" Yawn...
" Trite, sentimental waste of an important subject .
"While the film features a compelling story and much impressive acting, I never personally felt as connected to the story as I was to "The King's Speech".
" The tempo is one-paced and the dialogue is often stilted and dreary.
"The realistic balance between both Gerda's support for Lile but also her confusion at first: this was a very taboo topic and barely even spoked about.
" The editing's a confusing and weird one; there are a much of moments that make no sense.
" For this alone I'd recommend seeing the film, it's visually stunning.
" Dull drawn out twaddle .
" At times a little melodramatic in tone and slightly clinical in plot, the exceptional performances and stunning visual world of The Danish Girl let us forgive any lapses in technique and experience this universal theme through a specific and moving personal story.
" Boring, boring, boring.
" Amazing lead performances buoy a compelling storylilne; one of the year's very best films.
" It's boring, distant and while it was just under 2 hours, I thought I'd been there longerYou want to go see it, be my guest.
" Business as usual from the predictable Hooper .
" The cinematography and the acting are good, nothing bad to say about that, but the subject of transgenders is just something completely boring to me.
"The trivia on IMDb (and the info on Wikipedia) explains a lot about my confusion with the story.
" This is a story of respect, of sensitizing with the soul, of riveting in nature.
" I've found Eddie Redmayne (Lili) dull and simply plain.
" It seems as though Hollywood adds drama to everything, and that makes it a little repetitive and boring.
" This movie felt like it was trying to fill in every cliché from using art to bash you over the head with symbolism that has already been established, to cheap fights to make you feel bad.
" I found this movie to be absolutely beautiful and fascinating, and I have no shame in saying that it is one of my favorites.
" It's a good story, however it's a bit predictable.
" Typical Oscar type movie, well acted by Redmayne and Vikander just a too slow movie pace.
" I wasn't sure this would be a film I'd engage with, but having watched it, I must admit I thoroughly enjoyed it.
" It was a dull and disappointing experience and even more so because of all the talent involved.
" But when the script feels this contrived and fails to generate the required emotion that the writer wants me to feel, then I'm afraid I can't believe in it at all.
"The story that's truly intriguing is the one that belongs to Vikander as Einar's wife, Gerda-a fellow painter who struggled to be taken seriously in her husband's shadow until she asks Einar to sit for a portrait of a ballerina and gets her first glimpse of his feminine side.
" I found this journey very engaging and knowing nothing about the story it is based on made for a very unpredictable plot that surprised me on more than one occasion.
" Even if they wanted relationship issues, barring the fact that transitioning in itself can be a painful and fascinating process without that, you could have just as easily gotten this with sexuality confusion or gender representation or societal pressure or a million other accurate issues that weren't "oh no, she's a new person now".
" Yet, Hooper's The Danish Girl came across as a forced, highly contrived Oscar wannabe film with pretentious camera tricks, dizzying angles and weak vehicle for any kind of lead up to have Redmayne the first actor to win two back-to-back lead actor Oscars.
"Definitely worth watching.
" From the time he first reacts to wearing women's clothes, the movie is riveting as he easily conveys nuance in his facial expressions and takes great risks to be truthful and authentic.
" I found the pacing a bit dull and lost interest in the story halfway through.
" He's once again certain to reap plentiful laurels in this awards season; with another role about a slow process of physical and psychological transformation.
"I should also add that the acting feels forced in some scenes, but that's mainly because many of those scenes are cliché so the actors don't have much to work with......
" The transformation is so intense that he renames himself Lili Elbe, from where the next inevitable step is sex change surgery -- putting his male life on the line as such an operation was seen as quite dangerous at the time.
" As a bit of a 'game' Gerda encourages him to explore the character of his alter-ego "Lili" further: a big mistake, as Einar is swept into a spiral of confusion and self-doubt.
" But that script, the way it kills any momentum and renders all drama meaningless and uneventful.
"Except for the fascinating acting skills, I really really really adore the lighting and color of the film.
" There was a time when I would have seen this as a contrived, shocking piece.
" Although Einar is the one who changes physically, Gerda is the one with the more compelling emotional arc.
" It was the quandary of his loving wife that seemed so sad and was really the most compelling part of the story.
" He's a very expressive actor who always seems on the edge of bursting at the seams.
" The film also has a very slow pace which doesn't work for character building or plot movement.
" With a very slow pace and unengaging plot, The Danish Girl is worth giving a miss.
" Simply stunning .
" There was some over-saturation of the colours they use to show this unrealistically colourful world the character's live in, but the costumes are all interesting and engaging.
" Or it would easily fall into the trap of melodramatic depiction or confusion of emotions.
" A well-intentioned and certainly topical film that's prevented from being better than it could be by Tom Hooper's relentless commitment to being a boring director.
" Yet, despite its dramatic potential, the Wegeners' story is given such a flat treatment by Tom Hooper that the movie verges on boring at times.
" Far Too Long & Drawn Out...
" Sebastian Koch owes his presence to a big German contribution to the film's budget - still, the most interesting part of the story, the reassignment procedure he is carrying out, is dismissed by a sloppy, predictable script.
" This is definitely a liberal film, but it is still enjoyable even if you aren't.
"Boring, Boring, Boring ...
" The first 75% or so is quite slow-moving and feels like preamble (which it is, ultimately).
" Nevertheless, "The Danish Girl's" unique and brave story, and the two delicate central performances give it a gripping emotional weight that is quite affecting.
" Vikander has had a wonderful year after her stunning performance in Ex Machina.
" Worth watching .
" It's not a terrible movie, and the direction, production design and one of the lead performances are all great, but it really falls short of what it's trying to accomplish time and time again: an emotionally powerful and engrossing story.
" She shows loyalty, affection, love, lust, and confusion and matches Redmayne in just about every frame.
" Review: Although the subject matter was interesting and the performances were brilliant, I did find this movie slightly boring in parts.
" Lots of flaws on the approach to this true story moving at a turtle pace when within all that mundane waste of the viewer's time could have been filled with so much more about Lily we'll never know about.
" I felt his character was a little intense, maybe I'm not getting him because I'm straight.
" Firstly is a scene where Einar delivers laundry to a woman collecting it, but he does it with such insane speed it makes Usian Bolt look fat and slow (he has to run from one end of their big house to another, after having to tie the bag up tight) and it was so weird you wonder why they included it.
" Because of the subject matter in The Danish Girl I wasn't sure this was going to be a film that I would particularly like but I need not have have worried because I thought this was a fascinating movie that justified it's plaudits.
" Director Tim Hooper, responsible for the excellent Oscar winner "The King's Speech," is now back with a much more obscure but fascinating historical tale, "The Danish Girl.
" The whole thing is slow and dragged out to a turgid pace, and all of the cast feel icy cold and unsympathetic.
" Authentic women don't waste there time auto-eroticizing themselves in front of mirrors and practicing pouty lip and tongue movements, hand gesturing seductive self caresses...
" But I tell you you can save the money for a real movie in a few days, like Star Wars VII, or The Revenant.
" I personally really liked the music, it gave me goosebumps in all the right ways, and definitely helped create that mood of confusion and frustration and just a heavy flow of emotions.
" The cinematography was not good, out of touch with the story and moments, and basically seemed a little self-indulgent.
" Those alone make it worth the watch.
" Boring .
" A slow emotional ride about the courage to find oneself.
" aesthetes, slightly boring, predictable .
" But in reality The Danish Girl is formulaic, unfulfilling and forgettable.
" The ugly duckling story executed in this movie was bland and overdone.
" Redmayne conveys the confusion and determination of Elbe with grace and this brave woman's courage is shown through the actor.
" The film is only a little too long, a little too slow and maybe tries a little to hard to wring our heartstrings.
" He's performance in this movie is what I call "pretentious" and "by the books Oscar bait".
"It's visually stunning.
" Visually stunning, the cinematography was fantastic and the music complemented the narrative beautifully.
" The film feels rushed, and yet at the same time painfully slow at times, and it just doesn't work trying to squeeze 20 years of story into a couple.
" Such a beautiful exquisite performance by the talented Eddie Redmayne, who moved us all with his true and insightful character Gerda Wegener and the stunning, raw emotions from Alicia Vikanser.
"Redmayne conveys the torture and confusion nature has presented him with.
"Engaging and involving - a wonderful watch.

Call me a heretic, but I actually liked 'Fantastic Four.' Having missed the film when it hit theaters last year, it wasn't until I sat down for this Blu-ray review that I became aware of how much the film seems to be hated by hardcore comic book movie fans -- at least if you read the IMDB and web reviewers. Perhaps it is the film's more winking tone, or its overly photogenic actors, or the somewhat spotty effects, but no one seemed to like 'Fantastic Four' much. I found it a perfectly fine, fun ride -- the kind of lighthearted superhero movie they don't seem to make much of anymore, at least in this ultra-serious era when the phrase "comic book" has been replaced by the far more PC "graphic novel."
In case you are one of the three or four people unfamiliar with the original 'Fantastic Four,' it is a pretty standard comic scenario. During what is supposed to be a benign space exploration mission, five scientists are genetically altered by cosmic rays. Leader and inventor Reed Richards (Ioan Gruffud) is suddenly able to bend his body in amazing ways. Sue Storm (Jessica Alba) gains the power of invisibility, while her younger brother Johnny (Chris Evans) can control fire, even turning his entire torso into a human fireball. And mild-mannered pilot Ben Grimm (Michael Chiklis) is turned into a super-strong rock creature. Together, Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and the Thing become the Fantastic Four -- and instant media stars. Which is good news for the world, as the fifth member of the team, Victor Von Doom (Julian McMahon) has turned to the dark side, reinventing himself as the diabolical Dr. Doom. Can the Fantastic Four defeat Doom and save the day?
I think the reason 'Fantastic Four' may not have been fully embraced by the fan community is because unlike such recent comic book efforts as the 'X-Men' and 'Spider-Man' series, 'Batman Begins' and 'Superman Returns,' it is not particularly dark or serious. Though not a parody nor intentionally campy, 'Fantastic Four' does have a light-hearted tone, with its most broad moments akin to the slapstick excesses of the original 'Superman: The Movie' and the theatrical version of 'Superman II.' That means 'Fantastic Four' also skews a bit younger in appeal, which would explain why the film was such a hit with tween viewers last summer but largely dismissed by older fans.
I found the approach refreshing. Quite frankly, I'd much rather watch a goofy and cheerful film like 'Fantastic Four' than the dour and pretentious mishmash that was 'Superman Returns.' It is also a pleasure to see a comic book film where, for once, the superheroes are not totally tortured souls, and are actually given a few precious moments in which to enjoy their newfound powers. 'Fantastic Four' is hardly as satiric as the old "Batman" television series, but in spirit, they are close cousins. And the good-looking cast didn't bother me, either. Alba and Evans may not give Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep a run for their money, but they both look good in their skin-tight uniforms -- and if I were a superhero, I certainly wouldn't want to be ugly.
Having said all that, 'Fantastic Four' is not a great movie. Perhaps it is not even a good one. All the soap-opera melodrama (Reed and Sue's growing love affair, Johnny's cocky K-Fed routine, Ben's sentimental fling with a blind newspaper reporter) is not very believable. I also felt Dr. Doom could have been a bit scarier, and his formulaic plot to take over the world (or whatever) is admittedly uninspired and forgettable. Still, I find it hard to hate a film as silly and innocuous as 'Fantastic Four.' I guess I'm one of the few (at least in my generation), but I'm actually looking forward to the upcoming sequel.
1080p/MPEG-2
English DTS HD Lossless Master Audio 5.1 Surround
Unlike the first two Fox Blu-ray launch titles I've reviewed, 'X-Men: The Last Stand' and ' 'The Omen,' 'Fantastic Four' is the first not encoded in AVC MPEG-4, but rather MPEG-2. It is also a BD-25 single-layer disc, which doesn't leave much wiggle room. Yet despite these limitations, I was generally pleased with this 2.40:1 widescreen and 1080p transfer.
Clicking around various web reviews of the standard-def DVD of 'Fantastic Four,' many reviewers complained of a lack of detail and in particular video noise marring that release. I found no such problems with the Blu-ray version. The source material is in excellent shape, with not a visible speck of dirt or the like. Blacks are perfect throughout, and contrast consistent across the entire grayscale. The image is also not overly harsh, and contrast is a bit hot at times, but nothing unusual in today's world of computer-enhanced blockbusters. Detail is also strong, with a nice sense of depth, even in long shots. The image is rarely flat or two-dimensional, so all in all, this is a nice win for Blu-ray.
However, I did personally have a couple of problems with the overall visual look of the film. I have no way of knowing whether this was intentional or not, but the transfer looks a bit dark to my eye, with the fall-off to black quite steep, hampering visible detail in dark scenes. And colors, while stable and clean, are somewhat oversaturated for my taste. Fleshtones too, often look too pasty, if still the proper shade of orange. The movie could have looked more natural and film-like had these tweaks been reduced a bit, but again, this all could very well be intentional, and my personal taste is not shared by all. So, setting aside my own aesthetic nitpicks, I'm still giving this one a healthy four-star rating.
As I mentioned in my review of Fox's 'X-Men: The Last Stand,' the studio's first batch of Blu-ray releases are the first-ever Blu-ray releases to feature DTS-HD Lossless Master Audio soundtracks. Unfortunately, as of this writing, no current Blu-ray players or A/V receivers offer DTS-HD decoding. That will change very soon with the arrival of the PlayStation 3 and other players and receivers, but in the meantime, there is no way to access the DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack on this disc at full resolution. So what you are going to hear without DTS-HD decoding is the core, lossy DTS soundtrack at a healthy 1.5mbps.
Having said that, the downgraded version of 'Fantastic Four' does very nicely on its own. The film has quite lively sound design, with the kind of whiz-bang fun you'd expect from a big-budget comic book flick. Dynamics are excellent, with very natural and rich frequency response across the entire sonic spectrum. The .1 LFE really delivers some powerful deep bass frequencies, and I was impressed how the low end extends beyond just loud sound effects to the score and even the Thing's more intense growls. Surround use is active and engaging, with the bridge attack and Doctor Doom battle sequences particularly effective. There are some noticeable moments where a complete 360-degree soundfield is created, with excellent transparency between channels and fine sonic details readily apparent in the rears. I'm sure this mix will sound even better in full DTS-HD Master Audio, so check back soon to see an updated version of this review.
'Fantastic Four' hit standard-def DVD flush with extras, but perhaps due to Fox using a BD-25 and MPEG-2 compression on this Blu-ray release, hardly any of those goodies have been carried over.
The only real extra is a screen-specific audio commentary with stars Michael Chiklis, Ioan Gruffud and Jessica Alba. I was really quite surprised with this one -- often actor tracks can drag or turn into mutual admiration societies, and while there is some of that here, it is a very lively conversation nonetheless. Chiklis definitely leads this track, acting as both interviewer and cheerleader at the same time. There is a wealth of fun info divulged, from working with the complicated special effects (in particular the Thing's gigantic latex suit), to various alternate scenes and takes that didn't make it into the finished film. And though Chris Evans, aka the Human Torch, is absent, his cast mates waste no time in having a bit of (good-natured) fun at his expense. Even Alba's sometimes chirpy and seemingly airheaded comments ("Like, there really is a lot of talent up in Vancouver!") come off as endearing instead of annoying. A genuinely good listen.
Aside from the commentary, the only other extra is a trailer gallery with spots for 'Fantastic Four' plus other Fox Blu-ray launch titles including 'X-Men: The Last Stand,' 'The Omen' and 'Kingdom of Heaven.'
'Fantastic Four' is a film that is disliked by many, yet made a ton of money at the box office. I quite enjoyed it, and found it a nice respite from the more pretentious comic book movies that have come out as of late. As a Blu-ray release, though, this is a tougher sell. Quite simply, Fox's high $39.95 list price is a bit steep for any catalog title, let alone one as supplement-deprived as this one. Sure, the transfer and soundtrack are nice, but there are better deals available on Blu-ray. Unless you can get this one at a good discount, I'd have trouble recommending it for a purchase.


Emotion welled up in me as I read his words. Conor believes that depression is "a message from a part of your being to tell you something in your life isn't right and you need to look at it." I agree.
It's so important to sit with how you're feeling, to ask yourself what's needed for you to be able live an authentic life, and to really listen to yourself even when all you want to do is run away.
If you would like an insight into how someone with depression is feeling or if you would like some reassurance that you're not alone, this article is a must-read.
I was describing my new Christmas pyjamas to someone recently when she asked if I'd taken a photo of myself in said pyjamas and posted it on Instagram or Facebook because, she continued: "So-and-so* tells me you've been taking a lot of photos of yourself lately." *Name has been changed to protect anonymity.
I felt annoyed and embarrassed. Because (a): People were talking about me behind my back. And (b): If they were saying it, how many others were? I worried that I'd appear vain or insecure or both.
I chided myself for getting upset over such a trivial matter. Then, I remembered that I don't give out to myself any more. I reminded myself that I'm human and I still care what others think of me, though less so than before. Thankfully!
(a) I don't want people to speak about me behind my back. Is that true? Well, I'd quite like it actually if they were talking about how talented and gorgeous I am. And if they're saying something negative, would I rather they say it to my face? Not really.
(b) I was worrying about people thinking I was vain or insecure. The irony is that I was being vain and insecure by worrying about being seen as vain and insecure.
These days, many girls (and guys for that matter) are taking selfies with their cellphones. And with the prevalence of amazing App Instagram, we can paint ourselves in fantastically forgiving filters.
The thing is, I love beautiful things. I enjoy taking pictures of them and I delight in Instagramming them, then sharing them via social media. I actually take plenty more pictures of nature than I do of myself. So why is it more acceptable to upload shots of flowers and trees than profiles of your fabulous self?
It's because you'll be seen as "up yourself" or "too big for your boots". The confidence of the Americans is often perceived as brash and annoying across the Atlantic. It's a rather Irish trait to not want to be seen as "getting ahead of yourself". Modesty is our currency. No wonder we're broke.
All the personal development books tell us to love ourselves but sure that's a daft notion to us Irish. "That wan really loves herself" is a horrific insult round these parts. And we'd feel mad foolish speaking affirmations into a mirror!
I distinctly remember, as a very small child, being read a lovely fairy-tale. The heroine of the story was a beautiful young thing who didn't know how beautiful she was. This only made her more beautiful to all who witnessed her shy beauty. However, she believed she was a dreadful, lowly creature. She lived her life this way until, one day, a dashing prince set his eyes on her and fell head over heels in love, much to her total astonishment. And, of course, they lived happily ever after. The end.
At the tender age of five years, I decided that I would be just like that fictional doormat of a character. To think of myself as less than was surely the right way to do it. I can't logic this out for you now as I can't quite get back into the mindset of that tiny child. But it's no wonder it's been a long, challenging process turning it all around.
The fact that I now see myself or my new haircut or the bright orange of the scarf I'm wearing in the same admiring light as the autumn leaves or the ocean or that delicious cupcake I'm about to scoff is wonderful.
I don't think these people did anything wrong for making such a comment. A comment is just a comment. It is my reaction to it that matters. I looked at my reaction, thanks to the light that was shone upon it, and accepted it.
I'm delighted I've come this far. And for me, social media is all about sharing. One day, I'll want to share with you my latest blog or a stunning piece of music. The next, I'll post an inspirational quote or a picture I just took of a woman who loves herself.
The last few courses I've done have included the four different styles of learners. While reading through the descriptions, I learned that I am an Activist. I don't think any of us fits perfectly into just one type of learning style. I am also a bit of a Reflector, even a Pragmatist, and less so of a Theorist. But I am mostly an Activist.
Activists are all about experiencing life and immersing themselves fully in activities. They enjoy trying new things and they move enthusiastically from one project to the next. I embrace this aspect of my personality. And I regularly encourage the students of my Positive Living classes to really live and enjoy life too.
So this morning, as I drive home to do some class preparation, I spot a sign for Donadea Forest and decide, on a whim, to go there. It is a clear, crisp October day and I, as the Activist, seize this opportunity.
However, there is a traffic diversion along the way and I become quite lost. Suddenly, I see a sign for Ballinafagh Lake. I've never been there before. The adventurer inside me whoops with excitement.
I pull into a small car park in the middle of nowhere. I get out of the car and start walking through the dew-drenched grass. My feet get wet but this doesn't stop me from exploring this new landscape.
It looks like Hallowe'en, smells like Christmas, and reminds me of primary school nature tables. The lake is still and oh so tranquil. I place my ear against the bark of a tree and am amazed at the sounds of its inner stirrings.
The sight of red berries delights me. I tread upon a boggy carpet of autumn leaves. Deceased but still so beautiful. The constant cycle of nature is both thought-provoking and comforting.
This walk has nourished the Activist within me. I return to the car feeling energised and inspired.
What type of learner are you? (Click here to find out.) And what can you do today to honour that part of you?

HOBOKEN — City officials announced that undercover operations have begun to track down dog owners who don't pick up pet waste.
In a directive issued this week, Hoboken said the public can help in identifying repeat offenders by sharing "time, location and dog descriptions of observed violations" through the Hoboken 311 app or online.
Under city law, failing to pick up after a pet is punishable by a fine from $100 up to $2,000. City inspectors strongly recommend to the prosecutor a minimum fine of $250.
With Hoboken's waterfront location, the city also notes that pet waste left on the ground may wash into storm drains and end up polluting the Hudson River. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has deemed pet waste a "non-point source of pollution," which puts it in the same category as oil and toxic chemicals.
The City also plans to launch new pet waste stations in partnership with property owners.

Faithful pigeon stayed by the side of it's dead mate for seven months—and there are pictures to prove it!
It is a common belief that people think animals do not stay loyal to their partners after mating. This is true for most animal species' but not all of them. There are some breeds of animals who form lifelong bonds with their mates!
The internet user said that the female pigeon passed away in early January but despite it's death, her mate did not leave her side for a long time, a whole seven months to be specific. Seven months is not a short span of time especially for this species of bird whose average life expectancy is only around 6 years in the wild.
The person who recorded the whole incident stated that the male pigeon would often call out to his mate as if he was mourning for her. He was also seen to have covered her remains with twigs to protect her.
The person who posted this pigeon's journey said that he left his mate only after seven months. If true love exists in animals, here is a prime example of it. Some humans don't even grieve that long after the death of their spouse. This pigeon took the phrase "Till death do us part" and went above and beyond it.

If There Be Thorns by V.C. Andrews
3 stars - Gothic November 13, 2016
(Dollanganger Series, #3)
Chris and Cathy made such a loving home for fourteen-year-old Jory -- so handsome, so gentle. And for Bart,who had such a dazzling imagination for a nine year old.
Then the lights came on in the house next door. Soon the Old Lady in Black was there, watching them, guarded by her strange old butler. Soon she had Bart over for cookies and ice cream and asked him to call her "Grandmother".
And soon Bart's transformation began...
Fed by the hint of terrible things about his mother and father...leading him into shocking acts of violence.
Now while this little boy trembles on the edge of madness, his anguished parents await the climax to a horror that flowered in an attic long ago, a horror whose thorns are still wet with blood, still tipped with fire.
"If we could survive the worst, doesn't it stand to reason we should be able to bear the best?"
Of course there's tragedy with this series, but there's also something bizarrely beautiful. It's a mesmerizing series, not perfect but hard to get out of once you dig in. It would be a shame to just read Flowers In The Attic and not continue the series - even if the original was the best, the sequels feed into each other, making the story richer.
I went back and forth between 3 and 4 stars. Sometimes it was as fascinating as the others, impossible to put down, but other times it felt a little repetitive and some magic was lost through the brother's points of views. While the weakest of the original four, it's still worth reading and makes the garden that much more haunting.
Bart goes from adorable when he pretends to be cowboys and animals, funny when he hates everything, pitiful when he feels like the loner and sore thumb of the family, to obnoxious when he keep repeating his bad behavior, until finally downright creepy - especially that last page with the potent final paragraph.
Jory is the good brother but rather boring. It makes sense he'd be drawn to dance, but he doesn't stand out much otherwise.
Since it's not through Cathy's viewpoint, she and Chris seem a little less real and sympathetic. She came across more of a harpy Chris was rooted to half the time, deranged with a vicious mouth, but the attic lure was intriguing in the beginning. Chris just kind of seems there - I always loved him in the other books but he's kind of a shadow on the wall this time. I didn't sense the depth of their affections as deeply.
I'm trying to place the maid Emma. It seems she may have been in Petals or something with how familiar she is with the situation, but I can't place her. The grandmother - dare I say I actually felt bad for the mother in this book. I believe she's finally repentant and realizes how horrible she was. Sometimes the small manipulation comes out, especially talking to Chris, but I felt for her parts of the time. John is sinister, sure, but he's also a cartoon cardboard, bringing to this book more of a cheap feel.
The animal stuff was tragic-sad and the hardest thing about the book to stomach.
The book doesn't have as much melodrama as some of the others, but it is more unconvincing. The parents should have been more curious about the neighbor after Jory's first slip. They did seem rather oblivious and didn't investigate as they should have. Also, Chris didn't follow up with Bart enough after he knew about the neighbor's real identity. He told her to keep him away, he told Bart to stay away, but Bart still kept going over there and Chris basically ignored it.
Even though its length rivals the others, it didn't have a strong enough story to continue this long. Too much repetition with Bart's actions, confusion, and going back and forth to remorseful child and then demented monster-spawn. It grew old after awhile.
The ending was awesome, though. An art of forgiveness and coming clean, the irony of the two trapped together in the end, that act of redemption...and finally to Cathy's viewpoint for the last chapter. The ending was the best part of the book.
Overall, this isn't perfect but it's still enjoyable for a series that can never be rivaled with its pure Gothic tones, tragic family saga storylines, and inventive twists. Definitely one of the most haunting series written.

Der SV Ostmark Goldap, gegründet im Jahr 1913, war ein kurzlebiger Sportverein im Deutschen Reich mit Sitz in der heute polnischen Kleinstadt Gołdap.

Geschichte
Aus der Kreisklasse in eine der seinerzeit vier bestehenden zweitklassigen Bezirksklassen unterhalb der Gauliga Ostpreußen zur Saison 1936/37 aufgestiegen, konnte die Mannschaft sich im Bezirk II Gumbinnen mit 18:6 Punkten über den zweiten Platz für die Gauliga Ostpreußen dieser Saison qualifizieren.

In der in zwei Abteilungen zu je vier Mannschaften ausgetragenen Gauliga, deren Sieger in Hin- und Rückspiel den Gaumeister ermitteln, belegte die Mannschaft in der Abteilung B – ohne Punktgewinn – den letzten Platz. Die Folgesaison beendete die Mannschaft mit 8:16 Punkten und dem letzten Platz im Bezirk II bereits vorzeitig.

Durch den damit verbundenen Abstieg, spielte die Mannschaft in der Saison 1938/39 in der Staffel Masuren, eine von sechs Staffeln in der zweitklassigen Bezirksklasse Ostpreußen; die Staffel wurde als Viertplatzierter mit 9:11 Punkten beendet. Ab da ist über die Geschichte bzw. den weiteren Verlauf des Vereins nichts bekannt.

Mit der Eroberung Ostpreußens durch die Rote Armee, die der Schlacht um Ostpreußen folgte, der Besetzung und mit der spätestens ab 2. August 1945 einhergehenden Gestellung unter polnische Verwaltung, wurden alle deutschen Vereine und Einrichtungen zwangsweise aufgelöst.

Mit dem am Sonntag, den 16. Juni 1946, ausgetragenen Spiel von Olecko Guard und Gołdap Guard, zwei von in Olecko und Gołdap stationierten Soldaten gebildeten Mannschaften, das letztere mit 1:0 gewann, hielt der Fußballsport wieder Einzug in den Ort. Im Mai 1957 wurde der Verein Cresovia Gołdap gegründet, der seinen Namen bis zum Jahr 1975 innehatte und sich fortan den Namen Rominta Gołdap gab, in Anlehnung an die nordöstlich gelegene Rominter Heide. Der Verein ist in der Saison 2021/22 in der sechstklassigen Klasa okręgowa vertreten.

Did you know that November 15 is National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day? What better way to get ready for the holidays than to make sure your fridge is in the best shape to start storing all that great food of the season?
I thought I'd take the opportunity to share the best tips I have, not only on how to clean your fridge (and keep it clean!) but some good tips about food storage and safety. Let's face it: We can all afford to have a cleaner and more organized fridge, right? Maybe a tip or two here will be something you can try in your home.
1) The best way to clean your fridge is to start by turning off the cooling mechanism, and clearing it out completely. Set up a cooler or two to hold your food for about an hour (more motivation to finish the job quickly, right?). If you don't want to turn off the refrigeration, just be sure to work quickly, so you don't waste too much energy. For the clean out I did, we kept it on, worked quickly, and closed the door between phases of cleaning.
2) Warm sudsy water will be your best friend, and after washing, use cloths or paper towels at hand to wipe surfaces dry. Take the shelves and drawers out to clean in your sink or even your tub if you can. In this (and many) fridges, the glass directly above the crisper drawers comes out. It's the best way to get at cleaning the track that the shelf sits in, which I always find to be a bit grimy!
3) Start cleaning at the top; crumbs and spills will keep working to the bottom, and you won't have to re-clean a shelf you've already cleaned.
4) You'll be surprised (and possibly disgusted) at what has taken over the surfaces of your fridge. Some things leak and just leave a gelatinous ring around them… seeming nothing like the original product itself. One of the best tools I used last time I cleaned my fridge is a nylon (hard plastic) pan scraper, which allow me to get decent leverage on gently removing the ring, but also careful enough not to break the glass.
5) Wipe down the walls (I mean, seriously, how do these get stains on them?) Also, behind the crisper drawers, things seem to fall and die. Be sure to reach back there and give that area a good wipe down, as well.
6) The gasket (the rubber frame that surrounds the door to make a tight seal) also needs to be cleaned. Use a mixture of water and white vinegar, or antibacterial spray and a rag to manipulate into the creases and wipe out all the crumbs that land in there, too. Wipe all the way around the door.
7) Don't forget to vacuum the coils and the bottom of the fridge for better efficiency, and to pull out the tray on the bottom of the fridge. It's gross, and needs to be cleaned.
8) When you're done cleaning, leave it open a bit longer to dry out, and be sure to remember to set the thermostat back to cool if you turned it off. And add a fresh box of baking soda to help absorb odors.
1) Check expirations before you put anything in the cooler for safe keeping while you're cleaning… don't take up space for things that should be tossed immediately.
3) The door is where small volume products go to die. 2 tablespoons left of jelly, one squeeze of ketchup. Things that look a bit browner than ideal. Seriously…say good bye to these, and put replacements on your shopping list. Why are you spending good real estate on products you won't love using, or won't have enough to use when you need it.
4) Not sure if you should still keep something? Why not try looking it up on stilltasty.com, the "ultimate shelf life guide"?
5) And, let's face it: some plastic storage containers just aren't worth saving if it means opening them up and dealing with a mold-fest. Just toss it.
We scrubbed a lot. Everything was in the need of a deep clean, and a lot of warm, sudsy water helped.
We tossed some leftovers, but this family does a good job of going through their leftovers, so the covered dishes on the top shelf are sure to be gone within a couple of days.
We rearranged items on the door, to have them sorted a bit more logically: sauces, savory items, other condiments, etc. all grouped together.
I promise you: in less than an hour, you will make such great progress on one of the most important appliances in your home that you can't help but feel better about the new found healthy and efficient space you've created… just in time to fill it for the holidays!
