Children have a remarkable ability to adapt to almost any situation, no matter how horrific. Their resilience never ceases to amaze, and Asia Argento's aptly named "The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things" is one of the most pronounced examples of just how strong they can be. A harrowing slice of Southern gothic, Ms. Argento's latest effort is the stuff nightmares and lifetimes of therapy are made of - a terrifying trip through the complete destruction of innocence, seen firsthand through the eyes of its young victim. Based on a collection of autobiographical short stories by J.T. LeRoy, the film finds its own heart in the unthinkable - a testament to the indefatigable nature of the human spirit in the face of virtually every form of child abuse imaginable.
Ripped from a safe and idyllic life with his foster parents, seven-year-old Jeremiah (Jimmy Bennett) is returned to his real mother Sarah (Argento), a slum-dwelling speed freak who abandoned him at birth. Having already destroyed her own life by the young age of 23, Sarah isn't a repentant mother looking to make a better life for herself and her child - she's a recalcitrant drug addict who hops from man to man in search of the love and attention she didn't get as a child. Miserable and fearful of living in his mother's dingy hellhole of an apartment, Jeremiah escapes to a nearby police station. Assured that his parents are on the way, Jeremiah's hopes are shattered when Sarah flounces into the station in all her trashy glory.
Safely speeding away, Sarah silences Jeremiah's protests by telling him that his foster parents let her have him because they hated him, and if he ever goes back, they'll crucify him. Terrified, his hopes destroyed, Jeremiah finally succumbs, wrapping his arms around his mother in surrender as they leave the slums behind.
Little more than an object used to fill an emotional void in his mother's life, to provide some sense of the love and purpose that she so sorely lacks, Jeremiah is both scapegoat and pet. Yet despite the bullying and abuse she subjects him to on a daily basis, he continues to forgive her and follow her with the kind of unconditional love and devotion that only a child is capable of giving. All three of the young actors charged with this role are outstanding, their expressive eyes conveying hurt, confusion and the desire to merely be loved. The looks in their faces as Sarah constantly tosses them aside or pushes them away are heartbreaking, and the scrappy will that they bring to the character gives us hope for Jeremiah's future. The boys' performances are a testament to their talent, as well as Ms. Argento's greatest success in directing the film.
Doing triple duty as writer, director and star, Ms. Argento seems to have inherited some of her father's sense of visual style, but still has a long way to go as a filmmaker. Using saturated colors, she gives the film a surreal look amid the dinginess, and at her best, creates moods somewhere between dream and nightmare - a child's view of a cruel and exciting world that he cannot fully comprehend, complemented by Billy Corgan and Marco Castoldi's alternately ethereal and jarring score. But these moments are too fleeting, and the film often devolves into a gratuitous parade of abuse and humiliation. After so much horror, we start to become numb to the nightmare unfolding before us, forgetting that the trauma we're witnessing was all too real to its author.
Despite her skill with the younger actors and the cameos, Ms. Argento's own performance is a bit uneven. Playing Sarah as rebel in search of a cause, constantly on the verge of a sneer, Ms. Argento's performance is a caricature of a strung out Courtney Love. Her portrayal of Sarah's anger and neediness is dead on, but her inherent vulnerability is nowhere to be found - there's no sign of the heart that led her character astray in the first place.
Our hearts are continually deceiving us. They convince us to behave in irrational and sometimes dangerous ways. We often eschew our better judgment because of the innate desire to be loved, allowing it to become the very thing that destroys us. But if "The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things" offers any hope, it's that this destruction is not complete. No matter how far our lives have spiraled out of control, things can always get worse, but they can also improve. And though the heart may be deceitful and flawed, ultimately, it's what makes us human.

Every one of us was born with a common purpose: expansion. The purpose of your life and the purpose of my life is to become someone tomorrow that you and I are not today. Living with this purpose in mind completely changes how you and I live our lives.
We recently dove deeper into the core makeup of every human being: purpose. Although each of us has a unique purpose in life, there's a part of that purpose we all have in common: expansion.
Expansion is our collective purpose to be better off tomorrow than we are today. It's the effort we put in to improve ourselves today that will make us better selves for our families come the morning. The idea of expansion means that we bring more to the table in our careers the next day. It means we're better parents tomorrow. It means we're better leaders tomorrow than we are today.
Purpose: Faith & Focus
It's one thing to feel like we know our purpose. It's entirely different to do something about it. In my case, with my primary purpose being "expansion," I focus first on faith and focus–two areas that go hand-in-hand with purpose.
In other words, what I am doing each day to expand my faith and live with the right focus.
Everyone has faith in something or someone. And no, it doesn't have to be a God. It can be anything that inspires you to work hard and move forward in life. Personally, my faith lies in God and His role in my life. As a result, I expand my faith by studying the Bible and meditating on what it tells me. My focus has shifted over the years because of my dedication to expansion in this area.
Step one is understanding where you place your faith. Step 2 is acting on it daily to ensure you're expanding on that belief system. What are you doing daily to invest in your faith and focus?
Person: Fitness and Fuel
Focus 2 in the Power5Principles of living life to the fullest simply comes down to the investment we make in our physical wellbeing. If we apply the purpose of expansion to our bodies, it changes how we look at two important pieces of life: what we eat and the exercise we do (or don't do). This concept of fitness and fuel is not a new one. More than half of the U.S. population is overweight and out of shape. It's a common topic of discussion for a reason.
The problem is that we start with the wrong focus. We spend time worrying about how we look, albeit a powerful driver, but not a long-lasting one. We care too much about looking good, about the clothes we wear, and how others perceive us. Why do so many of us struggle? Simple: self-gratification is short-lived.
Let me give you an example. I've struggled with my physical health for decades. I haven't been able to eat right or exercise consistently, and it shows. My weight has been a rollercoaster. My energy levels and drive have been all over the board. I've managed to lose 40 pounds, only to put it back on within 3-months. At times I've exercised daily, and other times I'd go 6-months without so much as a step into a gym.
The question is why? Why do we know what to do, but struggle to do it daily? We know it's healthy; we know we'll feel better; we know our energy will surge… but we're still not consistent.
My son and daughter were married within 13-months of each other. With this expansion of our family came the reality that grandchildren were in our futures. This realization drove me to have a different focus on my person: fuel and fitness. I was no longer focused on myself. I was focused on the desire to be healthy for my future grandkids–a far more meaningful "why" than anything I had experienced. I have a long way to go, but with my new focus, I have successfully lost weight and exercise almost daily (there are still cheat days!).
Just because you decide to shift your focus doesn't mean life has to be mundane. Working Monday through Friday and living for the weekend is an all-too-familiar story for most of us. The reality of life is that through daily "expansion," each day can lead us to live with purpose. And that, my friends, is far from mundane.
Start right now. Commit to the following each day:
- Faith: reading, meditation, journaling, etc.
- Focus: apply what you learned today from reading, meditation, journaling, etc.
- Fuel: make conscious dietary decisions based on your deeper "why" and not just your own vanity
- Sweat for 25 minutes every day
Next week we will look at the third principle of the Power5: people.

Adele's nominated for culinary academy awards
Appeal Staff Writer
Eighty people gathered at Adele's Restaurant and Lounge Sunday night to have their tongues teased and the palettes pleasured, all to prepare the staff of the restaurant for a November event in New York.
Several members of the restaurant's staff, including owner and executive chef Charlie Abowd, have been invited to cook at the James Beard House in New York City on Nov. 10. The house is the home of the James Beard Foundation, which invites acclaimed and emerging culinary talent to prepare meals for patrons, including chefs, wineries, food publications and people in the food industry.
"In our world, (getting invited) is like being nominated for an Academy award and means getting recognition from the most highly respected culinary organizations in the country," said Abowd.
Cooking, preparing, and serving the seven-course meal is a highly involved process, including two days of preparation and 11 members of the restaurant's staff.
"When you look at the menu, it's fairly comprehensive," said Abowd.
The staff will prepare four appetizers, including seared sashimi and smoked salmon, followed by Mount Tam triple-cream cheese, purée of butternut squash, tequila-cilantro jumbo prawns, baked Florida grouper, rack of lamb loin and a dessert of three kinds of homemade ice cream and a Syrian cookie.
In addition to the food itself, each course has had a wine selected to compliment it.
Ed and Dee Rose of Carson City were among those who turned out to support the restaurant and partake in the event.
Dee Rose said the invitation to cook at the Beard House is honor for the restaurant.
"It's a honor throughout the country and for Carson City, and I think it's also a tribute to Charlie's parents," said Rose. "This is the best eatery experience you will find anywhere."
The event is one of two the restaurant is hosting before the staff leaves for New York. And despite the $125 price, there is already a waiting list for the second meal on Wednesday. All money raised from the meals will go toward travel expenses for the trip.
But for Abowd, a fourth-generation chef, the invitation means more than the opportunity to showcase the restaurant – it also means additional exposure.
"Every day, you try to make every dish the best you can and provide the best service possible. It adds prestige, and it adds a lot of expectations when people come into the restaurant," he said.
The invitation is enhanced even more, according to Abowd, because Adele's is the only free-standing restaurant in Northern Nevada that has been invited.
However, Abowd said that making Adele's what it is couldn't have been done by just one person.
"This is a great business for teamwork. I'm no more important than the dishwasher or the server," he said.

The cost of fixed-rate mortgages fell in July, according to official figures, but the housing market remained subdued during the month.
Bank of England statistics show that the average interest rate charged by lenders during July on two-year deals was 6.36%, as long as borrowers had a 25% deposit to put down. This is down from an average rate of 6.6% in June.
This is the first monthly fall in average rate since February.
Nicholas Leeming, director of propertyfinder.com, says the news is a positive sign for the housing market and reflects the Bank of England's loan scheme to lenders and cheaper wholesale funding.
"We can't rely on lower base rates while inflation looms large," he adds. "So to see some lenders actually cutting their mortgage rates is a very positive sign and indicative of the recent reduction in interbank lending rate. It's early days, but if lenders actually begin to pass on the benefit of previous cuts to mortgage borrowers, and competition returns to the market, we could really begin to see light at the end of the credit crunch tunnel."
However, despite falling rates, the housing market remained sluggish during July. Figures from lenders, compiled by trade body the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML), show the number of first-time buyer loans was down 8% from May, while home mover loans were down 9% in volume.
The average homebuyer put down a 22% deposit in June, up from 20% in May. The CML also reports that the average first-time buyer borrowed 3.33 times their income, down from 3.35 in May, while the average home mover borrowed 2.94 times their income, down from 2.97 in May.
In total, lending decreased during the month to £23.6 billion – down 4% from the previous month and down a whopping 32% from the same month last year.
Fixed-rate mortgages accounted for an increasing share of products taken out at 69%, up from 66% in May. The CML says this trend is likely to continue as fixed-rate prices have fallen in recent weeks.
Bob Pannell, head of research at the CML, says: "Mortgage lending activity remains relatively weak and will decline further in the coming months as a result of funding constraints and lower consumer demand.
"The majority of lending continues to be to people with larger deposits, which is prudent for borrowers and lenders in a slowing housing market."
House prices
Prices on flats are falling at a higher rate than other property types, and are leading the downturn in the housing market, the government has warned.
Official figures show that average property price inflation was 0.6% in June 2008, down from the 3% enjoyed in the same month the previous year. However, between May and June 2008 there was a 0.7% fall in prices, with the 3.6% fall in flat values largely to blame.
Prices on semi-detached houses also fell 0.9% and terraced houses 0.3%, while owners of bungalows and detached properties felt some respite with 0.8% and 0.7% rises respectively.
The above figures are the national averages for the UK, but on a country-by-country basis the picture looks a little different.
In England, annual house price growth was 0.5% in June, compared to 5.7% in Scotland. Homeowners in Wales saw falls of 1% while those in Northern Ireland suffered a 9.4% fall in values.
Within England, the South East enjoyed the largest annual house price inflation (1.8%) followed by the East (1.5%), and London (1.4 %). Those in Yorkshire and the Humber saw rises of just 0.7%, while those in the North East and South West felt falls of 0.2% and 0.4%.
However, the homeowners worst hit are those in the North West (-1.1%), the East Midlands (-1.1%) and the West Midlands (-1.9%).
Another blow to the housing market has been the government's hesitation over stamp duty reforms.
James Hyman, partner for residential sales at Cluttons estate agents, says the impact was immediate: 'The possibility of avoiding this tax is too appealing to home buyers, who are reluctant to fork out tens of thousands of pounds for something they may be able to bypass in a matter of weeks, and as a result some buyers are stalling.'
Cluttons saw several purchasers on the point of exchange pull their offers in the hope the delaying would enable them to avoid paying stamp duty."
Hyman adds: "With today's high inflation figures, we are in real need of some good news to install much needed confidence back into the housing market.
"While the spike in inflation can be attributed to commodity prices, there is now a real danger that the latest news will result in a further delay to a reduction in interest rates next month."

I think it is only fair that you get to know me a little bit better to understand how I think and how my brain works in order to put my writings into perspective and to draw your own conclusions. This is why I, once about every ten days, answer one of the questions from the New York Times question series: 36 Questions – How to fall in love.
If you want to start at the very beginning, you can find question 1 here.
And if you just missed the last answer to question 34, you can find it here.
Question #35 reads as follows:
"Of all the people in your family, whose death would you find most disturbing? Why?"
Oh boy, what a downer…
I wrote a lot about my family in the past and how important especially my parents and my sister are to me. Each of their death would be not only disturbing, but at the moment probably devastating. I know I feel better, but I also know that their death has the potential to catapult me back into dark places. But who wouldn't be devastated by the death of a loved one?
It is really difficult to pick one, because I feel that if I say one name it will mean that the other people are not as equally important to me. But that is not true and probably unfair. A son always has a special relationship with his mom and I am no exception. However, I think that most disturbing would be the death of my sister. She is still young, married recently, has a wonderful son, and they are building a house. She worked hard for all of that. And although I know it is not related to me, her death would make me question a lot. Even thinking about it makes me sad.
I would lose one of my best friends and someone I deeply admire (but I repeat myself =) ). She is not perfect. Nobody is, but if I care for other people the way she does and work as hard towards my goals as she does, I will die as a happy man with a lot of close friends surrounding me.
I really hope the last question is a more positive one again =).
Take care, Stephan

Free Preview of "Jumper: Jumpscars"
I suspect that the upcoming teleportation movie Jumper is going to be a surprise hit. It's got a lot going for it: It's based on the classic sci-fi novel of the same name by Steven Gould (who actually vouches for the film), it's directed by Doug Liman (who did the incredible Bourne Identity ), and it stars Samuel L. Jackson and Hayden Christiansen (who looks like he might actually turn in a decent performance).
One criticism being leveled at the film, though, is it eschews a lot of the original story. People do expect movies based on novels to deviate somewhat from the source, but this literary work has a lot of loud, dedicated fans who blog. While these guys tend to be cautiously optimistic, it's also clear that this is a whole new universe.
To help people understand the new Jumper realm, Oni Press is releasing a 100+ page graphic novel called Jumper: Jumpscars which details more of the conflict between teleporters and the Paladins that hunt them. A free 21-page preview of the graphic novel is now up, and not only is it none-too-shabby, but it's a generous free slab of a commercial work being used as promotion. That's something a lot more companies should be doing.

With the growing acknowledgment of cannabis' profitability and economic potential worldwide, it is not a surprise that once conservative and strict countries are taking a peek and are looking into legalizing marijuana.
Asia, for instance, is known for its harsh drug laws which include regulations against cannabis.
Even with laws that ban cannabis in the Eastern part of the world, the plant is famed throughout this hemisphere since the early ages.
Reports that prove its potency and effectiveness have been passed down through generations. However, because of international drug treaties, it is considered to be a harmful substance.
But things are about to change soon as one Asian country known for its pristine beaches and rich cannabis history could potentially legalize medical cannabis, and that country is Thailand.
Introduced by the Indians during their rich trade history, Thais have used cannabis as a source of fiber, ingredient, herbal medicine, and as condiments. One of the most famous uses of cannabis as a spice in Thailand is the country's boat noodle soup or "kway teeow rua".
Thai massage practitioners have also traditionally used cannabis in their arts to treat several health conditions. The Thai Institute of Healing Arts even describes cannabis as an "analgesic and sedative to control pain".
Why Is Thailand Legalizing?
Bloomberg reported that the reason for this bill is purely economic as it is intended to be marketed for medical purposes.
In the 1980s, Thailand was one of the top exporters of cannabis globally and they want to have that title back and pick up a slice of the exponentially growing cannabis market that is now worth billions of dollars.
Medical cannabis is gaining worldwide popularity and its status as a dangerous drug is even being deliberated by the United Nations.
All over the world, cannabis has a history of treating people with nausea, individuals who are experiencing distress, and it is even used in childbirth.
In Thailand, farm workers have been using it as a means to calm their nerves, they have also used it for recuperation process when the US soldiers stormed the country during the Vietnam War.
Thai Study: Cannabis Cures
As of this moment, Thailand's Government Pharmaceutical Organization or GPO, an agency under the Ministry of Public Health, is moving to encourage the military government to conduct research on the drug to sell it for medicinal purposes.
In the past, the organization had conducted a study to better understand the benefit of cannabis in treating medical conditions.
They reported that it greatly helped in three major illnesses which include multiple sclerosis, epilepsy in children, and loss of appetite and nausea for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Another major reason why GPO recommends the cultivation of cannabis in Thailand is the country's consistent tropical climate.
Cannabis plants grow well in places with tropical conditions and Thailand is a suitable place to grow a plantation. Farming is also one of the biggest industry in Thailand, giving the country an edge over other countries in terms of growing and cultivation of plants.
"The best strains of cannabis in the world 20 years ago were from Thailand, and now Canada has developed this strain until up to this day, we can't claim that ours is the best in the world anymore. That's why we must develop our strain to be able to compete with theirs," Dr. Nopporn Cheanklin, the executive managing director of Thailand's Government Pharmaceutical Organization said.
Thai cabinet ministers under the current government have agreed and passed the bill that allows research on medical cannabis on human subjects.
The country's National Legislative Assembly will now be up for debate for nine months before it becomes a law in April 2019.
If it pushes through, Thailand would become the first Asian country to legalize medical cannabis and they will become strong adversaries of the current leaders in the market- Canada and the U.S.
It will also mean that private medical firms can apply for licenses with Thailand's Ministry of Public Health to create their own cannabis-derived drugs to use as legal medical alternatives.
However, the adult use of cannabis is not included or even mentioned in the bills, only medical use.
As of this time, anyone, locals and tourists alike who are caught with cannabis in their possessions can be locked up to 15 years in Thailand.

Online Gambling in Canada
Unlike its southern neighbor, Canada places no restrictions on its residents' ability to gamble online. In fact, in many respects, Canada may be considered to be at the forefront of the online gambling industry's genesis.
A number of the major online casino software developers, including Cryptologic were borne in Canada – as was well-known payment processor NeTeller. Canada is also home to the Mohawk Indian Jurisdiction of Kahnawake which was one of the first and still now most prolific licensors of online casino and sports betting outfits. Over 300 operators serve their product from Kahnawake today. Canada is also home to well known industry watchdog and lobby group the Interactive Gaming Council.
In July 2010 an online casino owned and operated by British Columbian Crown corporation, the BCLC was launched. Security vulnerabilities identified shortly after launch meant the site was taken down and unavailable for some time but that's another story altogether. Playnow.com became North America's first state or provincial government owned/operated online casino. On August 10 2010 the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation announced plans to launch an online casino of their own by 2012 and Quebec is tipped to soon follow suit.
Playnow.com is only open to residents of British Columbia and initially did not offer live dealers. This changed in February 2018, when Evolution Gaming launched a Vancouver based dealer studio in partnership with BCLC.
As an English speaking, I-gaming friendly country with above average per-capita income levels and extensive internet penetration, it is no surprise to find Canada at the top of most online casinos' target markets…and their offerings are tailored accordingly.

If DUCA does permit an Excess Withdrawal, the Excess Withdrawal will constitute a loan which is immediately due without demand and which bears interest at the overdraft interest rate established by DUCA from time to time. Service fees in respect of Excess Withdrawals are in addition to any other fees that the Borrower is required to pay under the Agreement in respect of an overdraft of the Account.

overdraw the Account or increase an overdraft in the Account and, at the option of DUCA, the overdraft amount, along with any outstanding services fees and accrued interest, will, without limiting any of the other rights of DUCA, become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.
(a) DUCA may change the Overdraft Limit at any time and for any reason, at its sole discretion, on written notice to the Borrower.
(b) DUCA is entitled to change the service fees, rate of interest on overdrafts or the manner of calculating such interest rate at any time and for any reason, without the Borrower's permission. Any change will apply to any amounts owing on the date the change is effective and to indebtedness arising after that date. Changes to the interest rate or how interest is calculated and changes to the service fees are effective when notice of the change is posted at DUCA branches or on the DUCA Website.

On this day in 1701, Bowrey's the Prosperous departed and Bowrey listed the Men on board with their Sallaries. These range as follows:
Captain John Hilliard received £10/0/0 per month (worth about £1,500 today). His three mates, Dan Purkins, Dan Sanders and John Webber, received £6, £4 and £3 per month respectively. The Supercargo and Purser were also paid £3 per month. I find the discrepancy in the salary of the captain and supercargo interesting as the latter was responsible for the itinerary and trade. The trumpeter actually received more than the supercargo – £3/10/0.
At the other end of the scale, the supercargo's servant received no pay and was, presumably paid by his master out of his £3. Bowrey's cousin Thomas Studds was one of the sailors paid only £1/5/0 per month (worth a little over £200 today) less than the captain's steward.

Queenie McKenzie Paintings

Queenie McKenzie (1915- 1998) was the first woman artist to become famous amongst the high profile male artists from the East Kimberley. Queenie McKenzie was a long-term friend of Rover Thomas, whose work epitomised the style of ochre painting from the Warmun region. Queenie had worked with Rover on Texas Downs station in the early years of their working lives.
As a young woman, Queenie McKenzie was cook for the stockmen on the cattle station, and she well remembered a drama where she saved Rover's life in 1954. Rover Thomas had fallen from a moving horse and had lost the top of his scalp. Queenie had sewn his scalp back on so well that doctors were amazed that a novice was so skilled. Later Queenie used the story as a subject for some of her paintings.
Queenie McKenzie was born on the cattle station at Old Texas Downs around 1915. The station is located on the Ord River, south-east of Turkey Creek in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Queenie grew up among Gija people and spoke Gija as her first language. Her mother was a Malgin/Guridji woman and her father a white man. Her father wanted to take her away but her mother said; "You're not taking my baby away. I keep 'im here. He's my baby not yours."
Local stories tell that Queenie's mother rubbed her with charcoal so that her light skin would not be noticed. Later they moved to the new Texas Downs site, and police tried to take Queenie away as was the practice with half-caste children at the time. Queenie's parents must have put up a good argument because their child was not taken.
In later life Queenie McKenzie and her husband moved to the settlement at Warmun in the 1970's. Queenie did not have children of her own but was surrogate mother to many other children whose mothers were unable to look after them. A strong member of the Warmun community, McKenzie was a councillor and taught Gija language at the school. She had always taken an active part in the ceremonial life, being both a good singer and dancer.
Rover Thomas inspired Queenie McKenzie to begin painting. She liked to use natural pigments that included the soft pink and pale violet colours that she made from ochres that she dug from the ground. Queenie stated that these colours appealed to her sense of beauty.
Queenie McKenzie exhibited widely and her works are represented in major collections including the Australian National Gallery, National Gallery of Victoria, Art Gallery of Western Australia, and the Berndt Museum of Anthropology (University of Western Australia). Towards the close of her life Queenie McKenzie was declared a State Living Treasure for her unique contribution to the arts and culture and the teaching of the Gija language. A selection of paintings by Queenie McKenzie is available from Japingka Gallery, where collectors can buy Aboriginal art online with certainty of quality, authenticity and provenance of art works.

Every adult has a list of things they know they should do, but often avoid for one reason or another. For homeowners, that list is even longer, and preventive HVAC maintenance sits right at the top. Most homeowners understand, at least in theory, that regular maintenance will keep a HVAC unit running longer and better, but many still don't feel a sense of urgency or importance when it comes to maintaining their system. If you need further convincing, here are three reasons to invest in a preventive maintenance plan.
Warranty Terms
Warranty terms are among the most-important and least-read information available to homeowners. If you haven't read over the warranty for your HVAC system, you may not realize what an important role preventive maintenance plays in the contract between you and the manufacturer. It's tempting to turn up your nose at the cost of an annual maintenance agreement. After all, your system is new, and the warranty should cover any major repairs, so why would you need to pay for regular tune-ups?
However, keep in mind that many manufacturers call for routine maintenance as a term of the warranty. If something breaks and you can't prove you've done your part, the warranty will be void and you'll be stuck with the cost of repairs.
Better Performance
Not only will a well-maintained HVAC system last longer, but it will also work better. That translates into several key benefits for you and your family. First, the more efficiently your system runs, the lower your monthly energy bills will be – leaving you with more money to spend on the things your family wants and needs.
Second, you will experience better indoor air quality. Changing the filters regularly will help keep pollen and other allergens out of your lungs, and you can complete that task yourself. However, a HVAC technician will go a lot further during your annual tune-ups, cleaning the coils and even checking for mold and mildew. Air quality is something you only notice as it gets worse. Protect yourself from allergies, headaches, and cold symptoms by having your system professionally maintained. You'll breathe easier, whether you notice or not.
Extra Perks
With a preventive maintenance plan, you get the peace of mind that comes from prescheduled, professional inspections and all the benefits of a well-maintained system. However, preventive maintenance plans come with a variety other incentives as well. Examples include a 10% discount on repairs and priority service in an emergency. Some HVAC companies even offer credit toward the price of a new unit when replacement becomes inevitable.
A preventive maintenance plan truly is an investment — and an extraordinarily safe investment, too. Every HVAC requires maintenance, and repairs are not a matter of "if," but rather "when" and "how bad." Regular maintenance will save you money in several ways. You will save money through lower monthly energy bills, fewer costly repairs, an intact warranty, and service discounts. You will also reap rewards such as improved indoor air quality and better peace of mind. With so many good reasons to make preventive maintenance a priority, why not put it at the top of your list?

Translational Neuroscience Research Group – Closing the Gap
The conversion of promising findings from the research laboratory into effective clinical treatments for neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric illnesses is very challenging. One element of the process that can be improved is the capability to readily translate between the assessments used to evaluate the effects of a potential therapeutic intervention on cognitive processes in model systems and those used in patients.
Recent developments in touchscreen computing have enabled the generation of a new approach to cognitive assessment based on the presentation of and interaction with sequences of visual stimuli that can be readily administered across model systems and clinical populations.
A major objective of the laboratory is the application of this approach to various models of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric illness and corresponding clinical populations to provide a consistent platform for model validation and novel therapeutic screening. The group is also working to develop, optimise and validate new touchscreen-based assessments to enable the study of additional cognitive domains with a focus on motivation, cost-benefit decision making and emotional state regulation. Another goal is to apply the technical and procedural advantages of this methodology to non-disease related areas, including routine welfare monitoring and circadian rhythm biology.
Current research in the group includes:

Self-administration models of addiction typically require animals to make the same response over and over to procure and take drugs. By their design, such procedures often produce behaviour controlled by habits. This has supported the notion of addiction as a "drug habit", and has led to considerable advances in understanding the neurobiological basis of such behaviour. While drug-taking involves habitual behaviours, the initial procurement of drugs may require considerable flexibility in seeking behaviour which, by definition, is not habitual. The proposed studies model this pattern of flexible reward-seeking and rigid reward-taking, requiring mice to solve a new puzzle every day to gain access to reward. Across weeks of observation, we will use photometry to watch real-time neuronal activity in the brain while rats seek and take reward. These biopsychological experiments provide the foundation for work in our new laboratory, which we hope will impact how people view and treat addictions.

Product Information
This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is immobilized via covalent binding of primary amino groups to N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-activated Sepharose® beads. HA-Tag (C29F4) Rabbit mAb (Sepharose® Bead Conjugate) is useful for the immunoprecipitation of HA-tagged recombinant proteins.
Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibodies.
This protocol is intended for immunoprecipitation of native proteins for analysis by western immunoblot or kinase activity.
NOTE: Prepare solutions with reverse osmosis deionized (RODI) or equivalently purified water.
10X Cell Lysis Buffer: (#9803) 20 mM Tris (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 1% Triton X-100, 2.5 mM Sodium pyrophosphate, 1 mM β-glycerophosphate, 1 mM Na3VO4, 1 μg/ml Leupeptin
NOTE: CST recommends adding 1 mM PMSF (#8553) before use*.
Proceed to one of the following specific set of steps.
NOTE: To minimize masking caused by denatured IgG heavy chains (~50 kDa), we recommend using Mouse Anti-Rabbit IgG (Light-Chain Specific) (L57A3) mAb (#3677) or Mouse Anti-Rabbit IgG (Conformation Specific) (L27A9) mAb (#3678) (or HRP conjugate #5127). To minimize masking caused by denatured IgG light chains (~25 kDa), we recommend using Mouse Anti-Rabbit IgG (Conformation Specific) (L27A9) mAb (#3678) (or HRP conjugate #5127).
posted December 2007
Protocol Id: 27
HA-Tag (C29F4) Rabbit mAb detects recombinant proteins containing the HA epitope tag. The antibody recognizes the HA-tag fused to either the amino or carboxy terminus of targeted proteins in transfected cells.
All Species Expected
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide containing the influenza hemagglutinin epitope (YPYDVPDYA).
Epitope tags are useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation and immunostaining techniques. Due to their small size, they are unlikely to affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties.
The HA tag is derived from an epitope of the influenza hemagglutinin protein which has been used extensively as a general epitope tag in expression vectors (1).

Don't you know the finest things in the world have been written on an empty stomach?
Quote of the Day: Billy Wilder (in Sunset Boulevard)
5 Greatest Screenwriters of All Time
Quinn Steers of WhatCulture recently put together a list of the five greatest screenwriters of all time. His picks are:
5. Ingmar Bergman
4. Stanley Kubrick
3. Paul Thomas Anderson
2. Billy Wilder
1. Woody Allen
Quote of the Day: Billy Wilder
Trust your own instinct. Your mistakes might as well be your own, instead of someone else's.
Script: Sunset Boulevard
Here is the script for Sunset Boulevard, one of the top ten scripts ever written. This script takes a very unique approach to the use of voice-over. It was written by Charles Brackett, Billy Wilder, and D.M. Marshman, Jr.
Script: Some Like it Hot
Here is a text draft of Some Like it Hot, considered by the WGA to be one of the ten best scripts ever written. This script was written by Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond.
Screenwriter Profile: Billy Wilder
The Writer:
Billy Wilder is one of the great legends of screenwriting. His mix of classic comedies and riveting dramas set the standard for excellence in writing and directing.
Wilder was born in what is now Poland. He originally intended to become a lawyer then spent several years working as a journalist. He turned to screenwriting in 1929 and wrote scripts in Berlin until Hitler came to power in 1933. A man of Jewish descent, Wilder quickly emigrated to Paris then later to the United States. Wilder came to Hollywood not speaking a word of English but picked up the lingo and the business very quickly.
His greatest works include Some Like it Hot, Sunset Blvd., Sabrina, Double Indemnity, and The Apartment.
Quote of the Day: Billy Wilder
Film's thought of as a director's medium because the director creates the end product that appears on the screen. It's that stupid auteur theory again, that the director is the author of the film. But what does the director shoot—the telephone book? Writers became much more important when sound came in, but they've had to put up a valiant fight to get the credit they deserve.
Script: 7 Scripts Every Writer Should Read
myPDFscripts posted this list of seven scripts that David Lemon, a freshly produced scribe, suggests every writer read. As an added bonus, myPDFscripts included a link to most of the seven scripts which you can download for free off of their website. Take a look:
For me, this is just one of the most touching and beautifully structured scripts ever written. It's about the loneliness of the big city, the misogyny, putting career before love and a clock puncher finally becoming a 'mensch'. It's also a masterclass in dramatic irony and has the second best final line in film history (the number one being 'Some Like it Hot').
While I pray it never gets re-made, it could be as its themes are as fresh now as they were then. 'Genius' is an overused term but on this film Billy Wilder and I.A.L Diamond had it in spades.
A film I really loved and which really leaps off the page. It's also inspiring to first time feature writers as Michael Arndt's CV prior to the film is pretty thin. Now he's writing 'Toy Story 3′.
The opening is a brilliant example of setting up a lot of characters with great economy. There's hardly any dialogue, but five minutes in we already know a lot about this family and their wants and needs.
Like 'The Apartment', it's also a film about something; in this case the American obsession with being a 'winner'. Paul Dano's sullen (and largely mute) teenage son even gives a speech just before Olive's climactic dance in which he tells his uncle (and us) how meaningless other people's labels of 'success' and 'happiness' really are. Also worth checking out as the ending in the finished film is ever so slightly different.
A script that's assembled with Swiss watch precision. There isn't a single thing that's set up that isn't paid off later. It's also worth comparing with a 1980 draft that's also floating about on the 'net.
The essential story- kid goes back in time, has to play matchmaker to his parents- is the same but so much of it feels convoluted and just plain wrong. It makes you realise that films aren't so much written as re-written. It's one of the few films I remember with nostalgic affection that's even better than I remembered it.
4. Aliens
I know- not 'Alien'? What gives? While I think 'Alien' remains a high benchmark for sci-fi horror, there's just something so compelling about the way James Cameron writes hard-boiled action.
Brilliantly paced, spare dialogue, memorable characters- what more could you possibly want?
M. Night Shyamalan's recent output may have been, ahem, patchy (have you seen 'The Lady in the Water' and 'The Happening'?) but this really is a terrific script that gives you chills as you read it.
It's very spare, but every word is well chosen.
6. Sling Blade
Oddly enough, I read this years before seeing the actual film. Both are terrific but on the page, the script really grips you, and the underlying tension of waiting for Billy Bob Thornton's profoundly disturbed child-man to show his dark side really drives it.
Even on the page your mind's eye is drawn to him even when he doesn't seem to be doing anything.
Really exciting to see how this great film looks on the page. Although based on an acclaimed novel, it was screenwriter Simon Beaufoy who came up with the love story which gave his hero a much stronger drive; after all, do you want to see someone succeed because they want to be rich, or because they want to be re-united with the one they love?
It also gave a sense of unity to what could have been a series of interesting but slightly disconnected incidents; great and charming in a book; not so much on screen.
It also manages to incorporate suspense and some pretty traumatic stuff into what critics labelled 'The Feel-Good Hit of the Year'. While it does leave you on a high, the story takes you to some pretty dark places…
10 Writing Tips from the Great Billy Wilder
Scott Myers of GoIntotheStory.com recently posted this list of ten writing tips passed down by the amazing Billy Wilder. Wilder was the scribe behind such classics as Some Like it Hot, The Apartment, The Seven Year Itch, Sabrina, and Double Indemnity, to name a few. Wilder's gravestone reads "I'm a writer, but then nobody's perfect."
1. Grab 'em by the throat and never let go.
2. Develop a clean line of action for your leading character.
3.The more subtle and elegant you are in hiding your plot points, the better you are as a writer.
4. If you have a problem with the third act, the real problem is in the first act.
5. Tip from Ernst Lubitsch: Let the audience add up two plus two. They'll love you forever.
6. The audience is fickle. Know where you're going.
7. In doing voice-overs, be careful not to describe what the audience already sees. Add to what they are seeing.
8. The event that occurs at the second act curtain triggers the end of the movie.
9. The 3rd act must build, build, build in tempo until the last event, and then…
10. …that's it. Don't hang around.

"Post No. 727"
Today is my mother's 86 birthday, so a very happiest of birthdays to you, mom!
Been a while since I last blogged, but I've posted a lot of personal photos and a little more artwork over on my Facebook page (in case anyone wants to click on it and take a look). Won 7 or 8 silver-age comics that I should be able to pick up before the end of the week. A couple of issues of Tales of Suspense (#'s 93 & 94, I think), a handful of Gold Keys such as Space Family Robinson 19, Mighty Samson 10, and even a Doctor Solar 2, an odd issue of Archie's Mighty Comics w/Steel Sterling & The Fox, and...something else (I forget right off). The Doctor Solar is the best one of the lot. The issues of TOS has the first mention and first app. of the cultish character, "Modock".
Also picked up two nice store DVD copies of "The Posidon Adventure" and "Jaws", a couple fave flicks that I'll enjoy rewatching on some rainy day off from work.
Yesterday was very busy for me on a day off from work when I once again emptied the gutters and raked/mulched those up, put plastic on an outside windown (which was a real pain in the ass), and used some "Great Stuff" sealant around places on the roof. Also had a guy come over and clean out/relight one of our heaters. Just getting things more prepared for colder weather.
Work has picked up, and I don't think it's all just Christmas shoppers, either. They say the economy isn't any better, and for people trying to find jobs that's maybe true, but people ARE spending well. In fact, we just had one of the best weekends saleswise in retail since last year.
We have nothing special planned for Thanksgiving this year. My cousin's wife has been in the hospital very ill since last May, so no going out in the country for that again this year (perhaps, never again sadly), but we'll cook a meal and take it down to mom's to eat. Christmas will be a bit skimpy for us as my wife has yet to find another full time job.
Been busy working on that limited series I've previously mentioned here. Lack about one full issue having half of that done, but, most of that's still in pencils.
I was happy with the results of the national elections, but not too pleased with our local ones. (Well...you take what you can get.)

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis? escaped unhurt on Thursday after the helicopter he was travelling by crash-landed in Latur. Fadnavis informed about the incident on Twitter, while saying that there is nothing to worry about as everyone was safe. The Chief Minister, however, sustained minor injuries in hand.
Mr. Fadnavis was in Latur to participate in BJP's 'Shivar Samwad Sabha' (farm communication rallies) as a part of the party's initiative to reach out to farmers. He was travelling back to Mumbai from Latur when the helicopter crash landed.
The Chief Minister also issued a video wherein he is seen assuring the people that he was safe."Due to the blessings of all – more than 11 crore people of Maharashtra and Maa Bhawani, I am safe and absolutely unharmed," he said.
The Chief Minister, who was in Latur since yesterday to take account of the drought relief works, was returning to Mumbai when his chopper crash-landed immediately after taking off from Nilanga helipad.

As Paul gathered an armful of sticks and was laying them on the fire, a poisonous snake, driven out by the heat, bit him on the hand. 4 The people of the island saw it hanging from his hand and said to each other, "A murderer, no doubt! Though he escaped the sea, justice will not permit him to live." 5 But Paul shook off the snake into the fire and was unharmed. Acts 28: 3 & 4
We were blessed with a guest speaker on Sunday at church named Tim Bittle. He is a Pastor who just planted a church in San Francisco! He has spoken at church and our youth camps before. We really like him.
This Sunday's message was so ON POINT for things that me and my friends have been dealing with in life.
Tim talked about shaking off the attack of the enemy. In the Scripture I posted above, we see a snake attack Paul, but he just shook it off. This was just after the ship he was in shipwrecked into this island after 2 weeks of nothing but storms.
During the storms, God told him that he was going to Rome to preach. So, Paul had confidence that he would not die in that storm.
That same confidence caused him to shake off the snake when it bit him.
Tim's 3 points for how to shake off a storm/ attack are:
- Stay hot. You see the snake didn't come out of the fire until it was too hot. As lukewarm Christians, the enemy isn't concerned with us. If we are hot, he will attack, but being hot is the best way to fight. It means we are on fire for God and willing to fight!
- Remember Rome. Paul knew in his heart that God told him he would preach in Rome, Since that had not happened yet, he wasn't worried about anything taking him out. He KNEW God's plans, he believed it, and kept moving forward.n God has a plan for you too. So focused on it, and know that the end result is worth going through the storm for.
- Greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world. The enemy can not be every where all the time. He recycles his schemes. He can not create and he can not do anything new. Therefore, remember the authority and power in you. You have the Holy Spirit in you! You can command and declare things to leave in Jesus name.
I'm just here to tell you, going through storms SUCKS! It is not fun by any stretch of the imagination….
We serve an amazing, loving, honest Father who has plans for us. He does not cause the attacks and He is always there as we go through them.
I know my storms have caused me to be a stronger person. Sometimes, even Spiritual gifts are activated during storms.
God promises in Romans 8:28 to turn all the bad around for our good for those who love Him. He keeps His promises!
Shake off whatever storm or attack you are currently experiencing. Keep moving forward.
God's got you!
God bless you today and always!
