Hi Everyone!
How are you? Did y'all have a good Thanksgiving? As always, my sister Celia sets an elegant table with wonderful gourmet recipes for all the side dishes! Greg fried one turkey and baked another! Davis was here from California, Mark came in from San Antonio and my co-worker/friend Diana also joined us! I know she was happy to finally meet Mark and Davis since I talk about them so much! My family is grateful to Diana for always being there for me when I've had bleeds @ work! Blood doesn't scare her and she's offered emotional support as well!
Ok, on to all the all the fun I had this past trip to Denver!This will be my first surgery with Dr. Randy Robinson who is a dentist and plastic surgeon! My sister Celia started this trip with me, and since it would be a long trip, Mark will finish it with me until we fly home! We arrive in CO, Nov. 18th & it's 65 degrees! Got the car rental and headed to hotel to check in!
Had a late lunch @ Ted's Montana Grill and I was hoping to see my buddy Michelle that is one of the waitresses @ the restaurant! Wouldn't you know it, the hour she went home was the time we were there! Celia and I both ordered the bison meatloaf with mashed potatoes and squash on the side!
Hey, remember I told you about that t-shirt Jim had made for me? (Actually he got me 2!) That's what I'm wearing in the photo - it says, "It's an avm - Google it"! So tired of people staring @ me all the time!
Don't know why Celia and I hadn't thought of this sooner, but I slept in one of the sofa chairs with my feet on the couch @ the hotel! Worked out much better for me than trying to prop myself up with pillows on their too soft mattress! We never were able to get Apria to bring over any air humidifier/compressors for my trache, so Celia bought a couple of small humidifies @ Wal-Green's hoping they would help!
So, the next day, Celia and I headed to Dr. Robinsons office for my consultation appt. This would be my first time meeting his staff, so we were excited about that!
We needed to get an updated x-ray of my teeth, so here I am with Randi Valleti, Dr. Robinson's nurse!
I'm trying to do this in a hurry before we have to leave again for CO - more about that in a bit!
So later that day I report to Swedish, and right away, I saw one of the admitting clerks, Darlene and she gave me a big hug! Went up to Dr. Yakes office to say hello and talked to Becky, one of his patient coordinators for a bit. I think the other P.A.'s were busy with patients. I know one of them was out on maternity leave!
After getting all my paperwork in order, headed up to 7 North, the area I usually stay in! One of the first people to welcome me was Zufan - one of the techs that's been there a while and has taken care of me - she is from Ethiopia. As I was waiting for my designer gown and things in my room, I was checking my Facebook account and noticed a fellow avm-er had just written that she was arriving in CO! Wow! I was super excited to know I may have a chance to meet up with Ashely Stanley from West Texas! I had been writing to her on Facebook for a bit now and she was having an embolization with Dr. Yakes the following morning!
The nurse told me I would probably be taken to surgery about 6:30 a.m. and Celia said that was too early for her, so she would be seeing me later in the day! I had asked her to have something ready for me to write with and on in case I couldn't speak after surgery. Anyway, the time comes and I was transported to ambulatory care. I asked one of the nurses if Ashley was anywhere nearby - and she was so she came over to where I was laying in bed waiting to get to be taken to surgery. It was so great meeting her - she is so sweet! After I got a chance to visit with her, one of the anesthesiologist that had taken care of me before, Wendy, came over to say hello! I remember before getting the trache I was having a hard time opening my mouth very wide, and Wendy said she had lain awake the night before one of my procedures, worried that she wouldn't be able to intubate me for surgery! Then the hospital Chaplain came in and we were talking, when Dr. Robinson came in! He asked what was going on and the Chaplain said we were about to pray, so Dr. Robinson shut the curtain around us and we all held hands and prayed together! Right after that, Dr. Yakes peeked in to say hello! Wow, I was thinking I wished Celia were there to take photos!
Here I am shortly after getting out of recovery and meeting Ashley!
Dr. Robinson also worked on the puffiness under my left eye, so I have an ice pack to help with the swelling!
I've had so much going on, I haven't had time to blog like I normally do and really want to get this out - so I'm popping in lots of photos and may tweak it here and there later!
Here I am with my favorite Tech @ Swedish - Alex! He's a cutie! I want to bring him home to be my little brother! Ok, I even cropped this and it still came out sideways - sorry!
I ended up having to tape my lip all up until I could get back up to CO to see Dr. Robinson 2 weeks later! If only the sutures had taken, I would have been doing great! I understand it took Dr. Robinson 3 hours to remove 11 teeth and he did run into some bleeding issues. I honestly went in to the surgery not knowing whether I would survive it - but Dr. Robinson was able to get the bleeding stopped - I needed 2 units of blood and he cauterized and lasered any capillaries needing it. Found out later that I received 2 more units of blood - I vaguely remember the nurses coming to check on me and my breathing was very shallow. They were having a hard time waking me up and I guess with all the meds I was on, I was not happy that they were trying to wake me up and I got my cell phone and called Mark @ the hotel to tell him to tell the nurses to stop it and let me sleep! I didn't realize it was 5:00 a.m. and Mark said I called him twice! Thank God these nurses are so excellent!
Ok, I'm posting this and will continue another blog entry after my return trip to CO a couple weeks later!
Here I am with Dr. Robinson in the hospital!
Ok, everyone - hope you had a great holiday season and not sure when I'll get to blog again, so if I don't talk to you soon - Have a Happy New Year!
Love to all!

Income disparities between men and women have led to a retirement shortfall of between 25% and 30%, a report released Tuesday by the Insured Retirement Institute found. The report, "Women and Retirement: Overcoming Retirement Incomes Challenges Facing Women," found that while half of male boomers have saved at least $200,000, just 35% of female boomers have reached the same level.
Women earn about 82 cents for every dollar men earn, IRI reported, citing the Labor Department. They are also more likely to leave the work force for long periods of time to raise children or care for other family members. Time spent not working is also time spent not contributing to a retirement plan or Social Security. IRI found 44% of female boomers expect Social Security to be a major source of their income in retirement.
Although women frequently make less than their male counterparts, IRI found that women control 27% of investable assets worldwide, a level that is expected to grow 8% over the next five years. Furthermore, in 2009, nearly 30% of women in households where both partners worked made more than their husbands, up from 18% in 1987. Still, despite this improvement, women lack confidence in the steps they're taking to plan for retirement. Nearly a quarter of women over 50 say they aren't confident they're doing a good job planning or they aren't sure.
Health care, naturally, is a major challenge women will face in planning for retirement, not just because their longer lifespans will necessitate more care, but because the cost of care is rising rapidly. The S&P Healthcare Economic Composite Index found health care costs per capita increased more than 6% between April 2011 and April 2012, IRI noted in the report. Just a third of female boomers say they're confident they can cover medical expenses in retirement, compared with 41% of men.
IRI notes that one way to overcome these challenges is for women to work longer, something that the Employee Benefit Research Institute finds women are already doing. A 2011 report from EBRI found that the percentage of women over 55 in the labor force increased from 24% in 1996 to 35% in 2011. For women over 65, the percentage increased from 9% to 14%.

'Tis the Season to be Fiscally Cautious: 2013 Nielsen Holiday Spending Forecast
By James Russo, SVP Global Consumer Insights, Nielsen
The end-of-year holiday shopping season seems to start earlier and earlier each year, as retailers are already rolling out their holiday promotions. And those efforts appear to be working, as nearly one quarter (22%) of U.S. consumers report that they've already started their holiday shopping, according to the Nielsen's 2013 Holiday Spending Forecast. Holiday shoppers can also be notorious procrastinators, as 60 percent say they will wait a bit before they start their shopping.
So what does this mean for U.S. retail sales this year? Nielsen expects this holiday shopping season will be marginally stronger than last year, with dollar sales rising just about 2 percent, buoyed by the strongest consumer sentiment in six years (98 on the Q3 2013 Nielsen Consumer Confidence Index).
Nielsen publishes its holiday spending forecast annually and is a reliable indicator of actual holiday spending results. In 2012, five out of five category trends as well as the highest performing category were successfully predicted. Across four key categories, there was less than a 1 point difference between the Nielsen forecast and the actuals.
U.S. Consumers are Still Feeling the Pinch
However, even with the increase in overall consumer sentiment, there are still plenty of people feeling the effects of the Great Recession. Twenty percent of consumers say they have no spare cash, and 68 percent say they still feel like they're in a recession. With respect to spending ability, 48 percent say they're living comfortably or spending freely, while 52 percent say they're limited to spending on only the basics.
With the economy still on many American minds, dollar amount spending this holiday season appears consistent with last year, as 30 percent of consumers from all income ranges say they plan to drop between $250 and $500 this season. Twenty percent say they'll spend between $500 and $1,000, while only 6 percent will open their wallets wide enough to spend more than $1,000.
What's in Santa's Gift Bag this Year?
Consumers say they plan on giving gift cards, tech products, toys and food this year. Consumers also say they are planning on spending more this year on food, clothing, video games and cookware.
Top 10 2013 Holiday Gifts
|Gift Cards
|Tech Products
|Video Games
|Sporting Goods
|Alcoholic Beverages

Where the Gifts Are
Online retailers may be the big winners this year as consumers across all income groups say they plan to do more Web shopping this year than they did last year. This preference is followed by mass merchandisers and dollar stores.
Retail channel preference differs by household income. Seventeen percent of consumers say they are planning on increasing their online shopping this season and much of that traffic will come from households earning $100,000 or more per year. Twenty percent of consumers in this group say they're going to spend more online, compared with 15 percent among consumers in households earning $50,000 or less. In contrast, 12 percent of consumers in households earning $50,000 or less say they plan to spend more at dollar stores this year, flanked by just 4 percent of consumers in households earning $100,000 or more per year.
Americans Love to Indulge
Economic improvement means consumers are ready to indulge again. Alcohol should drive solid sales results this holiday season. Nielsen expects beer, liquor and wine to drive between $60 million and $70 million in sales growth. Traditional seasonal fares such as cheese, jams and jellies should also see jumps in sales, while snacks and candy will drive $199 million and $95 million in sales, respectively.
The holiday season is the perfect time to indulge our favorite furry sidekicks. Nielsen expects continued growth in pet care (5.3 percent dollar growth, 0.3% unit growth) and pet food (1.4% dollar growth, 0.4% unit growth).
Consumers are also expected to lean toward healthy options this holiday season, opting for bottled water and juices over carbonated beverages and shelf-stable juices. Health conscious consumers are expected to lift vitamin sales this holiday season, driving strongest value growth ($91 million) in the department (5.8% dollar growth, 5.2% unit growth). Nielsen is also forecasting strong value growth from fresh produce (8.2% dollar growth, 1.6% unit growth), while canned vegetables will likely see more than 2 percent dips in dollar and unit sales.
The annual Nielsen Holiday Spending Forecast leverages consumer surveys of over 22,000 demographically representative households throughout the US, fielded in September and is also driven by an analysis of 92 categories, covering five departments representing over $99 billion in sales (Food, Beverages, Alcohol, Health and Beauty and Homecare).

Pussy Riot, the Russian punk band that promised to take advantage of the world spotlight on the Sochi Olympics to protest Vladimir Putin's government, has managed to stay in the headlines over the past few days. On Tuesday, band members Maria Alyokhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova were meeting with journalists when they were detained by police, allegedly for questioning about a theft in their hotel. Word of their arrest reverberated throughout social media and the two were later released.
On Wednesday afternoon, several band members were trying to stage a protest performance, but shortly after donning the band members donned their signature ski masks, Cossacks—deployed in the town during the Games—brandished whips and pepper spray to break up the assembly. Video of the incident shows the Cossacks knocking the women to the ground, striking them with thick ropes and pulling off their masks. The band's attorney told USA Today Sports that three members of the group were hospitalized for injuries.
The group has said they are in Sochi to play a protest song titled, "Putin will teach you to love the motherland." It is not clear if they plan to try and stage another performance. — Nate Rawlings

Southeast Exotic Pest Plant Council Invasive Plant Manual
Common Name: Japanese Grass or Eulalia
Scientific Name: Microstegium vimineum (Trin.) A. Camus.
Microstegium is an annual colonial grass that spreads rapidly into disturbed lowland areas. Inconspicuous at first, populations may go unnoticed until they have displaced native communities. It is a C-4 shade tolerant plant that can survive and reproduce under a closed forest canopy.
Alluvial soil found in flood plains and stream sides is ideal habitat for microstegium. Other typical habitats include damp fields, lawns, mesic woodland edges, roadsides, and ditches. It is commonly found in areas of natural (e.g., flood scouring) or artificial (e.g., mowing, tilling) disturbance, but can invade undisturbed areas. Microstegium has been observed growing at an elevation of 1,200 m (3,840 ft), but typically is not found on upland sites. Deer avoid microstegium, which allows it a competitive advantage in over browsed areas.
Management Recommendations
Mechanical Control
Mow plants as close to the ground as possible using a weedeater or similar grass cutting tool. Treatments should be made when plants are in flower and before seeds are produced. Treatments made earlier may result in plants producing new seed heads in the axils of lower leaves.
Herbicidal Control
Herbicide treatments should be made late in the growing season but, before the plants set seed. Treatments made earlier in the growing season may allow a second cohort of plants to produce seeds.
Glyphosate: Apply a 2% solution of glyphosate and water plus a 0.5% non-ionic surfactant to thoroughly wet all foliage. Do not spray to the point of runoff. Ambient air temperature should be above 65°F to ensure translocation of the herbicide to the roots. Do not apply if rainfall is expected within two hours following application.
Sethoxydin: Apply a 1.5% solution of sethoxydin and water plus a 1% nonphytotoxic vegetable-based oil to all foliage on a spray-to-wet basis. Do not spray to the point of runoff. Ambient air temperature should be above 65°F. Do not apply if rainfall is expected within one hour following application.

Wronged Recruit, United States Army
I had loved hanging out at the recruiting station, chatting with my recruiter, SFC H. He seemed like a nice guy. Always willing to come pick me up across town since I didn't have a car, let me use his computer since I didn't have internet, answer any question I may have even if it wasn't military related. It took me 6 months from when I first walked in that door to when I swore in. SFC H was in the process of leaving for deployment with his wife and kids. I swore in June 27, 2012. A week or so later, SFC H wanted to take me out to dinner to celebrate. He said he took all his recruits out. I agreed. We went to a pizza place and chatted for a while.
We talked about the online training I had to complete and that I didn't have internet. He offered to let me come back to his hotel room and use his computer. I was hesitant. He insisted, saying it was for military business/training. I was still hesitant, but agreed. We did most of my training, then chatted about basic and AIT for a while. He started talking about how I needed to "get my lovin done before I went." Then he offered to help me with that. I declined and said I had to leave. He reminded me that he had the power to get my contract cut. He made me sleep with him. He told me not to tell anyone.
When I got to basic, we had our SHARP training. I finally broke down and told our liaison. She took me straight to the 1SG, who had me go to CID. They took my statement and said they would be in touch. I received one call via my CO during basic from CID. My Drill Sgts told me to get over it and that I should be fine with them running their hands from hips to ankles during shake downs after the range, etc. I wasn't. The DS constantly singled me out and belittled me for having those issues. I ended up being discharged after my "battles" told me I was lying and to kill myself to save them the trouble.
I received a couple emails and one or two phone calls from CID after that. Then an email stating that they had closed the case with no repercussions for SFC H. I was crushed. Not only was my trust in my NCOs shattered, but my trust in my battle buddies and the UCMJ. JAG didn't do anything. Anytime I tried to talk to somebody about it, I was blown off. The VA isn't much help, helplines aren't much help, I've even tried civilian sources. The second I mention military, they stop paying attention. I have constant nightmares about him coming after me. I am so jumpy it's now a joke and game to my coworkers to see me jump out of my skin when they sneak up behind me. I can't sleep, I eat so much I've gained over 50 lbs since basic. I'm at a complete loss as to what to do anymore. It's a nightly battle convincing myself that suck-starting my pistol won't solve my problems. I feel so alone.

East Georgia is a great place to begin your studies in business administration and economics. Here, you'll find:
- Great faculty who have experience in the "real world" of business administration.
- Spacious facilities, including "smart" computer classrooms.
- Challenging opportunities to learn more and to build your skills through the College's Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) business club, which actively seeks opportunities to learn more and to be involved in business projects.
Staying in the area to complete your associate's degree keeps you connected with the business resources located in the Swainsboro region.
Where will you go from here?

DANIELSON — On Dec. 7, 2001, crews from the Attawaugan Fire Department responded to a major blaze at the 1 Ballouville Road home of Mary Happel.
So when tankers and firefighters showed up again in front of Happel's residence Saturday morning, she had to worry.
But the Christmas music blaring from an engine allayed her fears, as volunteers from the Killingly department joined others across the Quiet Corner on Saturday for boot drives to benefit The Bulletin's Tommy Toy Fund, using the busy intersection in front of Happel's home as their base.
"I woke up this morning and saw all the fire trucks and thought, 'It's not on fire again,' " Happel said. "But it's great. It's all about the kids."
Attawaugan Fire Chief Matt Desrosiers said raising money for the cause has already become a popular venture for members of his station, who get to interact with area residents and contribute to providing presents for needy families during the holiday season. This is the department's second year conducting the drive.
Later in the afternoon, Santa Claus himself even checked in on the Attawaugan crew posted at Country Club Road to inspect the progress.
Desrosiers said organizers raised more than $3,000 last year, and were on track to duplicate or surpass that figure on Saturday.
"So far, so good. A lot of generous people," Desrosiers said. "The guys always have fun here, and anything we can do to help kids have a good Christmas is worth it."
A few miles away on Danielson's Main Street, Danielson Fire Chief Gerry Marcheterre and several of his volunteers stood on the outskirts of Davis Park, mingling with one another, impressed by the fundraiser's success.
"We've had everything from a handful of change to a $100 bill delivered this morning," Marcheterre said. "It seems we're getting more paper money than change this year."
Usually, the department brings in more than $3,000 in toy fund donations.
The Oneco Fire Department in Sterling also held a boot drive Saturday at the intersection of Route 14 and Main and Church streets.
Local firefighters weren't the only ones contributing to the cause Saturday afternoon. State troopers from across the region also were posted in front of local stores, collecting money and toys for the fund.
Don Bond Jr., son of Don Bond, the longtime Bulletin reporter and Tommy Toy Fund co-founder who died earlier this year, said the state police's work would have made his father proud.
"This was his thing," Bond Jr. said outside of Benny's in Killingly, where one of the town's resident troopers had five shopping carts full of toys donated by local residents. "This is what he lived for, and it means a lot to me and my sisters. It just kept him going."
Donna Hamilton, of Canterbury, said her grandson was once on the receiving end of a toy drive, and she wanted to "pay it forward" by contributing to the state police drive.
"I don't have much, but I've been there before and appreciate the help I've gotten. So what I do have, I want to give back," Hamilton said.

Kitesurfers came from all over the world to compete in the 2012 Cabarete Bay Kite Challenge which ran from 16 to 17 June in Cabarete, Dominican Republic. The CBKC 2012 was highly anticipated by Cabarete, international spectators, and the participants.
CBKC promised and delivered a great event and an exciting battle of freestyle kiteboarding, between high end competitors from all over. Strong winds, loads of fun and a good time for all…
Cabarete is revered as one of the best kite spots on the globe, offering beautiful beaches, natural ambience and strong winds. Cabarete is a prime Kitesurfing, windsurfing, Surfing, laser sailing and SUP destination. The event was held in front of the Millennium Resort & Spa and the Laurel Eastman Kite School, right in the heart of Cabarete Bay.
Competitors from South Africa, France, Estonia, Canada, Ireland, United States and of course, the Dominican Republic, battled it out against each other and the elements for prizes and bragging rights. We were all incredibly pleased with the outcome.
Lauren and the Kite Challenge organizers opened the fund raising with a silent auction, movie screening of F-One "Antandroy", and raffles at the Carib Wind Center and Eze Bar in Cabarete on Friday evening, one week before the main event. They closed the event on the evening of June 17th with another silent auction, more great raffles and the award ceremony, at Club Ojo in Cabarete.
This event would not have been possible without the support of our international and national sponsors. To see who they are and for more information about the event, please visit our Facebook page for this event, and help support www.dominicandream.org. This is an incredible organization doing loads of good here in the Dominican Republic.
This event turned out better than we could've ever imagined. We hope to do it again next year, bringing the community together once again to enjoy this wonderful sport. KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR US NEXT YEAR, 2013!

Review: 3M Shoot 'n Share CP40 camcorder
Today's Best Tech Deals
Picked by Macworld's Editors
Top Deals On Great Products
Picked by Techconnect's Editors
3M Shoot 'n Share CP40
In an attempt to stand out in the crowded pocket camcorder market, the 3M Shoot 'n Share has a unique feature: a built-in projector. However, as a camcorder, the Shoot n' Share could be a lot better.
Because of the built-in projector, the Shoot 'n Share is slightly bulkier than other pocket camcorders on the market. It has dimensions of 2.4 by 4.9 by 0.9 inches, and weighs about 5.6 ounces. It sports a two-inch LCD, as well as an HDMI port, an AV port, and a Micro SD card slot. Below its LCD screen are a camera button, a record button, and a projector button. Below those function buttons are control arrows that allow you to fully interact with on-screen menus.
Performing the Shoot 'n Share's basic functions is not hard. If you want to take a picture, just press the camera button. If you want to record video, just press the record button. If you want to use the projector, just press the projector button and the camera's menu will appear on the surface being pointed at.
If you want to change the camera's settings, or find pictures you have taken, then things get a little more complicated. It's not intuitive to do such things, so you do have to press a lot of buttons and move the arrows around until you fully understand how to perform the tasks. Annoyingly, some of the camera's buttons don't always work right away when you press them.
A major drawback to the Shoot 'n Share is that it has only one video resolution available for video: 720p at 30 frames per second. Other camcorders offer 1080p and 720p at 60 fps. It can shoot photos at 8 (interpolated), 5, and 3 megapixels.
The projector has a resolution of 640 by 480 pixels, and displays images at a 4:3 aspect ratio, not widescreen, despite the fact that video is captured at 1280 by 720. When the Shoot 'n Share's power adapter is plugged in, the projector brightness is rated at 14 lumens. When using battery power, the brightness is turned down to 12 lumens.
In our lab tests, the Shoot 'n Share earned a video quality grade of Fair (on a scale of Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good, and Superior). The camcorder performed poorly in both low light and bright light situations. The audio quality of the videos was also found to be Poor.
The Shoot 'n Share's saving grace is its still photo capability. Its photos were rated on three factors: color, exposure and sharpness. The photos shot with the Shoot 'n Share were given a Fair grade for color, and rated Good for both exposure and sharpness.
While the projector seems like a nifty idea, it is underwhelming. The projected images looked grainy when displayed on clean white surfaces. We also found that the projector's image quality was best maintained with a 8 by 8 inch size.
Macworld buying advice
Unfortunately, the 3M Shoot 'n Share end up being more of a novelty device than a practical pocket camcorder. Though its built-in projector is an interesting feature, it makes the camcorder bulky. And with the subpar video quality from both the camcorder and the projector, it hard to recommend the Shoot 'n Share.
3M Shoot 'n Share CP40
- Built-in projector
- Easy to shoot video and photos
- Bulky
- Projector is 4:3 aspect ratio
- Shoots only at 720p (30 fps)
- Disappointing video quality

At Tribeca, big personalities on the big screen
NEW YORK (AP) -- Big city. Big personalities.
The 12th annual Tribeca Film Festival, which kicks off Wednesday, is highlighted by a handful of notable documentaries about iconoclasts whose verbose vitality is barely contained within 90 minutes. Portraits of Elaine Stritch ("Elaine Stritch: Shoot Me"), Richard Pryor ("Richard Pryor: Omit the Logic") and Gore Vidal ("Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia") will all premiere -- and will have plenty to say -- at the New York festival.
Among other things, they are a few of the greatest -- the most urbane, the funniest, the smartest, the brassiest and the most uncompromising -- mouths of the late 20th century. And New York loves a mouth.
"The four most beautiful words in the English language: I told you so," says an aged Vidal in "The United States of Amnesia."
The Tribeca Film Festival, a sprawling downtown event covering all genres of movies and countless other flashy, red-carpet events, is always something of a cacophony. Although certain full-throated voices can't help but rise above the din, there's no shortage of variety at this year's Tribeca.
The festival opens with a celebration of the Brooklyn indie rock band The National with both a concert and a documentary, "Mistaken for Strangers," made by Tom Berninger, brother of the lead singer, Matt Berninger. Ten days later, Tribeca will draw to a close with a restored 30th anniversary screening of a classic from one of the festival founders: "The King of Comedy," in which Robert De Niro plays an obsessive stand-up comedian.
Neither is the kind of major event that Tribeca has sometimes used to draw the spotlight (last year's festival concluded with "The Avengers"). But festival programmers point to "Mistaken for Strangers" as a nod to indie culture and "The Kind of Comedy" as a tribute to film restoration.
In between, Tribeca will feature a few notable premieres with bold-face names ("Sunlight Jr.," a love story starring Naomi Watts and Matt Dillon from "Sherrybaby" director Laurie Collyer; and "Almost Christmas," in which Paul Rudd and Paul Giamatti play Christmas tree salesmen) as well as a number of notable releases carried over from earlier festivals (the latest in Richard Linklater's ongoing romance series, "Before Midnight"; David Gordon Green's offbeat comedy "Prince Avalanche"; Haifaa Al-Mansour's "Wadjda," the first feature shot entirely in Saudi Arabia and the first directed by a woman).
Tribeca, which three years ago launched a distribution arm, has always been among the more innovative festivals. Geoff Gilmore, chief creative officer for Tribeca Enterprises and lead programmer along with Frederic Boyer and Genna Terranova, hopes Tribeca is working toward being "the festival of the future," with a "spectrum of programming" that draws young audiences.
This year, more than ever before, it stretches the notion that a film festival should be limited to movies. A new addition is a transmedia category called Storyscapes featuring various multimedia and interactive projects. An hour of a new Sony PlayStation video game ("Beyond: Two Souls") will screen. And the Dutch filmmaker Paul Verhoeven ("Basic Instinct," ''Starship Troopers") will show his crowd-sourced film, "Tricked."
But this year's class of documentaries is one of Tribeca's strongest ever, partly thanks to a stable of strong individuals.
Tribeca has often vacillated between celebrity profiles ("Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work") and issue-driven films ("My Trip to Al- Qaeda"). Highlights in the latter category this year include "Big Men," an examination of an oil company in West Africa from "Our Brand Is Crisis" director Rachel Boynton, and "The Kill Team," Dan Krauss' documentary about a platoon in Afghanistan charged with war crimes.
"Elaine Stritch: Shoot Me" has the benefit of being one of the most purely entertaining films at the festival, one where simply the documentary's theatrical subject walking down the street is far more captivating than any blockbuster special effect. Chiemi Karasawa's film captures the Broadway icon in her late '80s as she contemplates retirement and departing New York. (A show-stopping send-off was recently held for her.)
"When I showed a rough cut to an audience, they were like, 'We don't want to hear anybody else. There's nothing more entertaining than watching her and listening to her,'" says Karasawa, whose film has added Stritch's "30 Rock" co-star Alec Baldwin as a producer. "At this stage in her life, when somebody is so alive, that's the best material that you can use in a film."
Nicholas Wrathall, director of the Vidal documentary, took a similar approach, mindful that his interviews with the writer at his home in Ravello, Italy -- among the last on camera by Vidal before he died last year at 86 -- were precious. He originally conceived the film being entirely of Gore. The documentary profiles the voluminous writer's lifelong, passionate, erudite public defense of American ideals.
"It was a great privilege and honor for him to allow me to get close to him, just to have the opportunity to interview him toward the end of his life," says Wrathall. "He was so angry at that point, when the Bush administration was in power. He could not believe that people weren't speaking out as he was."
Questions of legacy are inevitably part of these films. Says Vidal on how he's remembered: "I couldn't care less." In Marina Zenovich's "Richard Pryor: Omit the Logic," during an old television interview, Pryor, who died in 2005, says: "I'd like for people to see my picture and laugh."
Zenovich, the director of two acclaimed documentaries on Roman Polanski ("Odd Man Out," ''Wanted and Desired"), made the film for Showtime, which will launch a new documentary series in late May.
The film traces how Pryor's life and his constant battles with convention fueled his ahead-of-its-time comedy. As revealing as much of the footage is (including the previously unseen initial, disastrous taping of his 1982 comedy special "Live on the Sunset Strip"), Pryor, as ever, remains impossible to pin down.
"He was being so truthful so much to the point that he was utterly offensive," says Zenovich. "It was just a struggle he had through his whole life, probably because of how he was raised and what he saw in his life. He just couldn't be normal like you and me. His eyes had seen too much and he somehow wanted to speak the truth -- and that is so beautiful to me."

Warehouse Roof Cleaning
Industrial & Warehouse Cleaning Contractors.
Choosing a cleaning contractor is an important task with big responsibilities. There are many factors to consider such as efficiency, cost and safety.
The roof is the most important part of every building, yet as it's literally out of sight, it can often get neglected. This leads to a variety of problems including cut-edge corrosion, guttering leaks and damage to the fabric of the roof and skylights (that can get broken and also dirty, lowering natural light and increasing lighting bills). Following an inspection we can pinpoint the issues with your roof, and undertake a programme of works to make it watertight for years to come.
We've always been innovators in our industry: if there's a new development in technology, we combine it with our highly evolved processes and deliver you the results you need.

What we do
Rejuvenating any type of building or structure to a 'better than new' standard.
Our Services
Bringing your industrial buildings & warehouses back to life.
Any building with a predominantly commercial focus is a business tool, and essential to the running of your business.
Industrial buildings also have a tough life, often operating around the clock and being treated roughly by people working in them. Also, the huge increase in online retail has meant that the demand for large-scale warehouse facilities has increased massively, and these distribution centres also need to be running at their peak operational ability in order to fulfill customer demand.
For the team at Kaizen, cleaning these kind of large-scale buildings allows us to showcase all of our skills under (and on top of) one roof. We can use our innovative access methods and our range of specialist equipment to full effect to deep clean and refurbish any industrial building or warehouse to 'as new' – or even better than new if you choose our stunning BECOSAN® concrete floor polishing system.
The process starts with a thorough inspection from top to bottom – we'll climb up, abseil down and look in every nook and cranny until we understand your building inside and out. We'll then send you a detailed report about our findings, supported by photographs and a list of recommendations and a proposed schedule of works.
We understand that our service is only as good as the talents of our team. That's why the expertise and training of our staff is of paramount importance, so they're fully prepared for the tough and exacting work they do.

From all indications, President Trump and Republican leaders on Capitol Hill will do little this year to cope with soaring prescription drug prices, despite Trump's promises of tough action during his campaign.
However, in a novel reading of the unfolding drama on Capitol Hill over health care reform, a former top Democratic budget official sees the potential for a revolution in government drug price controls if the Senate version of the GOP's Obamacare repeal-and-replace legislation wins approval.
Related: How Big Pharma Lobbyists Keep Medicare Drug Prices High
Peter R. Orszag, a vice chairman of investment banking at Lazard, has mapped out a scenario in which passage of the Senate plan – with its nearly $800 billion in Medicaid cuts over the coming decade – would ultimately lead to "European-style price controls and rationing of prescription medications."
For sure, the former director of the Congressional Budget Office and director of the Office of Management and Budget during the Obama administration in no way has endorsed the Senate GOP plan as a backdoor way to address rising drug prices.
Far from it. Orzag presumably is as opposed to the GOP plan as most Democrats and even some moderate Republicans. And he's no champion of drug rationing, which he suggests would be a "nightmare."
But the budget veteran wrote a column in Bloomberg this week to suggest a plausible and significant side effect on drug prices if Congress ultimately votes to pass the Republican plan and effectively gut the Medicaid program in the coming decades.
Related: Ignoring Warnings, Drug Companies Hike Prices By 10 Percent
Under the controversial Senate plan crafted by Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Medicaid would be slashed by about $774 billion over 10 years and 15 million people currently enrolled the program for the poor and disabled would lose coverage, according to a new CBO analysis.
By 2026, federal spending on Medicaid would be reduced by 25 percent, according to CBO. The cuts would grow even more onerous after the first decade, because the Republican Senate bill ties future Medicaid funding to a much slower-growing cost of living adjustment than is currently used.
Orzag notes that after a couple of decades of this -- on top of the cuts through 2026 -- federal support for Medicaid would be cut to about half the level it would be without this legislation. The Senate plan would gradually tighten the spigot on federal funding of Medicaid by changing the system from an open-ended entitlement to a per-capita-cap or block grant.
That new federal funding system would provide the states with a fixed amount to cover all of their Medicaid beneficiaries, with virtually no wiggle room for extenuating circumstances.
Related: Extreme Rise in Some Drug Prices Reaches a Tipping Point
Caught in a vice of vastly diminished assistance from the federal government and increased liability for running Medicaid, the states would have no choice but to tighten eligibility, cut back on services, reduce payments to health care providers and health plans, dip into other parts of their budget – or a combination of all of the above.
Both the Senate and House GOP health care plans are virtually silent on drug prices. Yet Orzag believes that passage of a Republican plan this summer would unavoidably force the states to move towards drug price controls.
"One specific and perhaps underappreciated thing states could do would be to aggressively restrict Medicaid beneficiaries' access to drugs, and impose price constraints on the medicines allowed," he wrote.
Orzag says that this would "come as a serious blow" both to beneficiaries and drug manufacturers because Medicaid is the largest insurer in the country. Medicaid spent roughly $30 billion on retail prescription drugs for its 70 million beneficiaries in 2015, or about 10 percent of the national retail drug spending total.
Truth be told, many states in recent years already have begun rationing some of their costliest drugs to try to fill gaping holes in their Medicaid budgets. As many as three-fifths of state Medicaid programs have imposed tough restrictions on millions of low-income patients and veterans seeking reimbursement for a very expensive treatment of the often-deadly hepatitis C liver infection.
Related: Drug Company Profits Soar as Taxpayers Foot the Bill
Gilead Sciences, the manufacturer of two highly effective biologic medications, Sovaldi and Harvoni, charge between $83,000 and $95,000 for a full course of treatment. Many states reeling from these costs have significantly limited access to those patients who meet specific conditions.
But beginning with a federal court ruling in Seattle last year in favor of patients, there has been a wave of lawsuits filed to force states to provide more generous coverage.
Orzag writes that under the existing Medicaid drug rebate program, states are required to cover nearly all drugs from manufacturers that have signed rebate agreements. "But they nonetheless restrict access -- by establishing preferred drug lists and prior authorization rules, and by rigidly limiting the number of prescriptions a beneficiary can fill each month," he said.
As for more drastic steps to hold down drug prices, a handful of states already have begun exploring the possibility in a response to a voter backlash against the pharmaceutical industry during the 2016 election.
Drug price control bills have been filed in state legislatures in Oregon, Washington, Maryland, Illinois, Massachusetts, Indiana and Montana, according to Forbes. In addition, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) recently proposed drug price controls as part of his budget.

A literary tech site has spotted an alleged update to Sony's not-terribly-popular Reader. The PRS-505 doubles the memory capacity of the original PRS-500—it can now hold 160 books rather than 80. The new Reader also has an improved E-Ink screen, comes in a choice of colours and has a much smarter button layout and interface. But will any of this fussing actually help sell Readers?The Sony Reader is one of those quirky products that attracted reviewers originally because it was unique. The E-Ink screen was very easy to read, in spite of a lack of back lighting. And the idea of an iPod/iTunes system for books made sense. Or did it? Books from the Connect store were terribly expensive, and there was too much pressure to own digital titles, rather than rent them out, like a for-pay library model. How does doubling the book capacity help with that?
I'd hate to pronounce the new Reader DOA. (Heck, it might never arrive, since the listing and photos were pulled from the retailer's site after the post went up.) But while it's nice to know Sony is trying to tweak the formula, I'm just not sure the formula itself is worth the chalk. [Wowio via Gadget Lab]

As the season draws to a close, let's be honest: this was not the Best Summer Ever. Actually it sucked. Relatively hard, in fact. And by the time Cee-Lo rolled around, it was too late.
If you disagree, let The Awl disabuse you from that:
It has been, by almost every metric, a miserable summer. Apart from continued economic malaise, a political class that seems unable deal with the problem and a concerted opposition which does everything in its power to prevent success through obstruction and distortion, environmental disasters, man-made disasters, war, famine, flood, Katy Perry and an increasing anger and ignorance best exemplified by the flap over a cultural center containing a small area in which people of a certain faith can worship downtown, it has been really really hot.
Unfortunately, none of the above is untrue (depending on how you feel about Katy Perry, anyhow). But who wants to end on that note? Here, this is better:
Yes, now we're smiling! And we do hope that your summer was, on a personal level, as dreamy as Sandy's.
As for us, we'll be going out of summer in light-posting style: Hortense will guide you through the weekend; come Monday, holiday content will be handled our dear friend AJ Daulerio of Deadspin. Regular programming will resume on Tuesday.
Have a great weekend!

Nevel Amadeus Papperman is the owner of Nevelocity.com, a web critic and one of the main antagonists in the iCarly series. He first appeared in iNevel.
He is shown to be extremely intelligent and cultured (though extremely old-fashioned), but an egotistical and arrogant boy who dislikes just about everyone except himself. He has a crush on Carly and has tried more than once (unsuccessfully) to get Carly to kiss him. In the alternate reality in iChristmas, he was Carly's boyfriend. He's also infamous for his voice.
Nevel is most notable for his successful review website, Nevelocity.com, which has millions of hits from Internet users across the globe. Students at Carly's school claim that a web series is not cool if it doesn't receive a good review from his site (their reason for not watching iCarly).
His lifelong dream is to own his very own haberdashery, which, according to him, is a men's retail store that sells men's accessories such as wallets, hats, buttons, belts, ribbons, and zippers, and gets annoyed whenever people ask him what it is. Nevel possesses a tendency to boast and glorify himself and his achievements and has a well-developed ego. Examples of his snobbish behavior include his mysophobia (hatred of filth and germs) and his overuse of outdated words such as "banter" (conversation), "rue" (extreme regret), and "shan't" (contraction for shall not).
He is portrayed by Reed Alexander.
Role In the Show
In iNevel, the 6th episode of season 1, Carly and Spencer go to his house in order to have an interview for iCarly. They are caught off-guard when discovering that Nevel, the creator and manager of a nationwide pundit website, is actually younger than Carly. After Spencer leaves to have tea with Nevel's mother, Carly shakily tries to start the interview, but it's made clear that Nevel has different ideas. He attempts to flirt with Carly (while complimenting himself), and finally steals a kiss, much to her disgust and anger. Furious at Carly's rejection (and because she threw tapenade in his face), Nevel swears revenge on Carly and her website, shouting how she would, "Rue the day!", and gives the iCarly website a horrible review. They attempt to make him tell the truth by inviting him over, and sending "Germy" (Jeremy) on him but he easily tricks Jeremy into letting him go by falsely offering him $10. After Sam and Freddie are ready to give up, Carly remembers that Nevel, though crafty and intelligent, is still only an 11-year-old, and they tell Ms. Papperman what he did. Ultimately, he is forced by his disappointed mother to give iCarly an honest (good) review.
The young webshow critic returned to get revenge on Carly, Sam and Freddie in the iRue the Day, the 11th episode of season 1, when he hacked into the iCarly website and made everything go haywire. The iCarly team threaten to tell on Nevel again, only for him to tell them that his mother is leaving for a two-month cruise and that his "hopelessly confused" grandmother is babysitting, thus he cannot be tattled on and punished. Spencer, who saved the life of Tom Higgenson of The Plain White T's, managed to book them on iCarly, so Carly, Sam and Freddie tried to hack into Nevelocity, but Nevel, having prepared for this, used their network connection scheme to crash their website, then mocked them again, and created his own cruel parody of iCarly, where he dressed up as Carly and started singing a song insulting the webcast. Thankfully, Carly called in Colonel Morgan (someone who works with Carly's dad)'s squad, who raided his house and threatened to arrest him. When Nevel begged for mercy, Carly decided not to press charges against him if he apologized and called himself a weenie.
He also appears in iWant My Website Back, the 13th episode of season 2, where he tricks Mandy Valdez into selling him the iCarly website, and again, he creates a mocking version of iCarly using puppets. When confronted, he refuses to give the website back unless Carly willingly kisses him on the lips, which she agrees to. They meet behind the Bushwell Plaza and Nevel reveals he has two goons hired to make sure she doesn't try anything funny. Carly tricks Nevel into signing the website rights back to her and escapes via a rope back to her apartment. Nevel threatens that they'll rue the day (again) and gets guacamole spilled on him from above.
In iGive Away a Car, the 9th episode of the 2nd season, Nevel hires a pawn posing as Jeffery Flanken, the son of a car dealer, to run a fake contest on iCarly to win a free car. Eventually, Nevel wins the contest and tells them they need to give him the car or else the iCarly website will be shut down for fraud. Sam and Freddie later find out that the new car doesn't exist. They also find out that the car won't be considered "new" unless it drives at an appropriate speed. They use Spencer's "Galaxy Wars spaceship" prop (which, much to his displeasure, was an imitation) as the car. Nevel tries it out and crashes into a flower shop, but the iCarly crew are allowed to keep their web show because the car was fast enough to be considered brand new.
In the movie IFight Shelby Marx, the 21st episode of season 2, after Carly accidentally knocks Shelby Marx's grandmother down, Nevel tricks Shelby into believing that Carly did it on purpose using his technical knowledge. At the fight, the iCarly crew confronts Nevel, who says he's only here to watch Carly bleed and cry. After the fight, it is revealed to Shelby that Nevel lied. Freddie drags Nevel into the arena and locks the cage, leaving Nevel to admit the truth to Carly, Sam and Shelby. As punishment, the three girls beat him up.
Nevel is not seen or mentioned throughout Season 3, but appeared in a few videos on iCarly.com during the production of Season 3.
He was also mentioned in iGet Pranky, the 3rd episode in season 4.
In the 8th episode of season 4, iPity The Nevel, a video of him yelling at a little girl
and breaking her lollipop in revenge for breaking his pickle jar is put on the internet, shattering his reputation. Now that Nevel has hit rock bottom he goes to the iCarly crew asking for a chance for redemption; though they are reluctant, they try to help him get back on his feet (they were convinced when Nevel drank from Sam's sweaty shoe filled with Wahoo Punch), after first hog-tying him up as a rodeo cowboy does to a bull. But after Nevel finally saves his reputation he completely blows it when a paraplegic man bumps into him, and Nevel has yet another outburst which is also filmed.
Nevel returned in iHalfoween, where he tried to get his revenge on the iCarlys for not helping him after the second incident with the man in the wheelchair. He came to the party dressed as a Purple Robot, first
giving the iCarlys candy that made their voices really deep, and then locking Freddie in the Purple Robot suit to trick everyone into thinking the Purple Robot was him (which resulted in Freddie landing in the Jerk Basket 20 times until the iCarlys realized their error). Carly pretended to apologize, but then had Nevel put in the Jerk Basket and subjected to the same punishment Freddie had unwittingly experienced.
- In iNevel, Nevel's age was given to be around 11, but in iFight Shelby Marx, Shelby Marx describes him as being about the age of herself and the iCarly cast. iFight Shelby Marx takes place nearly two years after iNevel, as Nevel may have been turning 13 while the iCarly crew were turning 15.
- In iRue the Day, Nevel states that he isn't scared of Sam, but in iFight Shelby Marx, he admits that he is scared of her; it's likely that he only said it in the former episode because she wasn't there in person.
- Nevel appeared in 8 episodes.
- Nevel made a return in the Sam & Cat special, "#SuperPsycho" as he is now in a sickness hospital that his mother put him due to a virus he has. He later breaks out and meets up with Gibby for dinner.
