Movies - Box Office postsSunday July 27, 2014
Newest Superhero, Lucy, Clobbers Oldest, Hercules, at Weekend Box Office
“I won?” “She won?” The newest superhero (left) clobbers the oldest (right) at the domestic box office.
“Hercules” had a bigger budget ($100 to $40 million), better reviews (63% to 58% on Rotten Tomatoes), more theaters (3,595 to 3,173), greater name recognition, and, of course, way bigger biceps; but the girl, “Lucy,” still came out on top. She’s grossed an estimated $44 million to Herc’s $29 at the domestic box office this weekend.
This feels increasingly the way, doesn’t it? Beyond “Maleficent,” currently at No. 4 for the year with $232 million domestic, the annual top 10 is still the old boys club: Captain America, Transformers, X-Men, Spidey, Godzilla, 22 Jump Street, Planet of the Apes. But in head-to-head matchups, the girls are increasingly kicking ass.
So Angelina Jolie with sharp cheekbones cut up Seth MacFarlane’s flaccid western in late May. So Shailene Woodley with cancer beat out Tom Cruise with Groundhog Day Syndrome in early June. And now little Scarlett Johansson, armed only with looks, lips and boobs, plus 100% brain capacity, Luc Besson as director and Taipei as locale, has clobbered Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s attempt to pull the Hercules myth out of the B-grade swamp it’s forever been stuck in.
Is this a trend? Girls gone box office? Are the studios noticing? Will they notice in particular when Katniss wipes the floor with all the year’s movies in November? Or will they point to the so-so performance of “Divergent” ($150 million) in March and do nothing as usual?
Either way, ScarJo: Hen hao. Ni hen li hai.
The other openers? “And So It Goes,” the poorly received sexagenarian comedy starring Diane Keaton and Michael Douglas, bombed in 1,762 locations, winding up with $4.5 million and in eighth place; but Philip Seymour Hoffman’s last starring role, “A Most Wanted Man,” directed by Anton Corbijn, grossed $2.7 million in only 361 locations. It also garnered good reviews: 91% on Rotten Tomatoes.
In other good news, “Boyhood,” with phenomenal reviews (99% on RT), and playing in only 107 locations, grossed $1.7 million. It’s now up to $4.1 million for a movie that’s barely playing. If it’s playing near you? Get out and see it.
Weekend Box Office: Hollywood Releases Crap Movies, America Doesn't Go See Them
The image to the right appeared in my email inbox on Friday.
Of the new films, “The Purge: Anarchy” (49% RT) grossed $28.3 million for second place, “Planes” (49%) grossed $18 million for third place, and “Sex Tape” (16%) uploaded $15 million for fourth place.
Is it still summer? Because it’s hard to tell from both the crap movies Hollywood is releasing and our tepid reaction to them. (BTW: Correlation?)
In overall 2014 box office news, “Spidey 2” crawled over the $200 million barrier, “Transformers 4” ($227m) is bumping up against “Maleficent” ($228m) for fourth place, but “Captain America” still rules with $258 million.
No worries. “Hercules” arrives next week. Here he comes to save the day.
‘Apes’ Blow It Up Big but Summer Box Office Damned and Dirty
Apes rule. My review.
The most successful “Planet of the Apes” movie at the domestic box office (adjusted and unadjusted) is Tim Burton’s godawful remake starring a sleepwalking Mark Wahlberg, which grossed $180 million in 2001. Isn’t that depressing? Well, yes and no. The worst was first but at least the studio, Fox, didn’t confuse attendance with satisfaction and make a sequel. It probably helped that Burton supposedly said he’d “rather jump out a window” than make another “Apes” movie.
Either way, it looks like we’re going to have a new “Apes” champ now.
“Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” opened this weekend with $73 million. (Cf., $54 million open for “Rise of ...”) It's the fifth movie to open between $70 and $100 million this summer but none have exactly stormed the barricades afterwards. Unless “Apes” has legs, or “Guardians of the Galaxy” surprises, this will be the first Hollywood summer without a $300 million movie since 2001.
Meanwhile, “Transformers 4,” in its third weekend, was a distant second with $16 million, for a domestic total of $209 million. Is this clinking clanking clattering collection of caliginous junk on its last legs? No, sadly. The movie is way off its usual domestic totals (“2” had grossed > $300 million by this point), but worldwide it’s kicking butt. It’s the biggest hit ever in China and the biggest hit worldwide in 2014 with $752 million—ahead of “X-Men” ($727) and “Captain America” ($712).
“22 Jump Street” finished fourth ($6.7) and has a domestic total of $171 million—fantastic for a comedy. “Maleficent” finished eighth ($4.1) and has a domestic total of $221 million, and a world mark of $668 million. It’s the biggest hit, both domestically and internationally, of Angelina Jolie’s career.
Better news? Richard Linklater’s “Boyhood,” in miniscule release (five theaters), grossed $359K or $71.8 K a theater. (Cf. $18.4K for “Apes.”) It’s set for a wider release next weekend. Watch for it. It’s one of the year’s best movies.
The weekend totals.
Hollywood B.O.: Worst July 4th Weekend Since 1999
This is how it’s worked in the past.
Other studios accede the July 4th weekend to the second weekend of the “Transformers” series, which then grosses in the $40-50 million range. The other studios might release more serious films (“Public Enemies,” 2009) or comedies (“Horrible Bosses,” 2011), but they don’t want their A-movies getting crushed beneath the weight of all that stupid metal, so they let Michael Bay have the weekend more or less to himself.
This year it was the same. Warner Bros. released “Tammy,” an awful-looking comedy starring Melissa McCarthy, and ScreenGems counter-programmed with the Eric Bana horror film “Deliver Us From Evil." But the fourth “Transformers” movies till won the weekend.
Except it fell off by 63%, grossing only $37 million. (Cf.: $47 million in 2011 for “Transformers 3.”) Meanwhile, “Tammy” merely did OK ($21), while “Evil” bombed ($9.7).
Upshot? A July 4th weekend that was down 47% from last year when (get this) “Despicable Me 2” and “The Lone Ranger” were released. You know you’re in trouble when you can’t match “The Lone Ranger”’s numbers.
In fact, according to Ray Subers at Box Office Mojo, it’s the worst July 4th weekend for the top 12 movies since 1999.
Overall box office has already been weak this year—the tent poles appear bent if not busted—so unless a surprise champion emerges (“Apes”? “Guardians”?), it’s going to be a cruel, cruel summer for Hollywood. But maybe that will mean better summers for the rest of us in the long run.
How could Americans not want to see giant robots riding giant robotic dinosaurs?
Are $100 Million Opening Weekends Approaching the Age of Extinction?
Could we really be getting tired of whatever this is?
While I was away last weekend, the fourth “Transformers” movie, “Age of Extinction,” became the 27th movie, and the first this year, to gross more than $100 million during its opening weekend. Barely: $100,038,390, according to Box Office Mojo and Paramount Studios. That’s down from the $108.9 million “Transformers 2” grossed opening weekend 2009, but up slightly from the $97.8 million “Transformers 3” grossed during its opening weekend in 2011. Is that $2 million jump because of star Mark Wahlberg? Is it his GAR (Gross Above Replacement)?
Either way, it’s a bit late in the year for our first $100 million domestic opener. Here’s the 27 broken down by month:
From 2004 to 2008, there was always a $100 million opener in May. In 2009, we didn’t have one until late June, “Transformers 2,” but 2010 gave us Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland,” inexplicably grossing $116 million during a March opening weekend. The first “Hunger Games” repeated that March feat in 2012 and then “The Avengers” seemed to reset the bar with a $207 million opening weekend in May 2012. We had four $100 million openers that year (none lower than $140) and three last year (none lower than $116). So it seemed like $100 million openings would soon be no big deal.
Until this year. This year, $100 million openings have been the benchmark that would-be blockbuster movies can’t quite bench. “Captain America” came close at $95 million, “Godzilla” at $93, “Amazing Spidey 2” at $91, “X-Men” at $90. But no cigars until “T4.” Kind of. Many in Hollywood feel Paramount’s numbers are inflated. And even with that inflation, it still just wheezed across the finish line.
So are the tentpoles creaking and bending? Is this franchise fatigue or something more?
Look at Box Office Mojo’s summer predictions from April. Its writer, Ray Subers, thought “How to Train Your Dragon 2” would be the big summer movie at $325 million; but after three weekends and $129 domestic, it’ll be lucky to gross half that. He predicted $290 for “X Men,” and it’s done well ($225), but not that well. His “Godzilla” prediction felt low ($230) but Godzilla is still clawing its way there ($197). Ditto “Spidey” ($225/$200). In the superhero realm, there’s a lot of wheezing going on. Comedies, too. Subers thought “A Million Ways to Die in the West” was a $125 million movie but it's stuck below $50.
The one surprise based upon his predictions? “Maleficent.” He guessed $150 and after more than a month it’s at $206. Or about what “The Avengers” did in three days in 2012.
Is there a breakout movie to come? A new normal that gets us past traditional superheroes? The “Planet of the Apes” sequel? “Guardians of the Galaxy”? Or for the year’s first true $100 million opener, will all the boys in Hollywood have to wait for Katniss to come to their rescue in November?

text: True love is a funny thing. I’ve never experienced it for myself romantically, but I have felt the true love between a family. I cannot believe its force. It can make people do remarkable things, both good and bad. I don’t understand how it controls people, but it does. An invisible force can evoke so much out of a person that it is truly baffling to me. It can cause such joy, but then such pain. The easiest thing would be to avoid it, but us humans, we crave it. We know it has the capacity to take hold of us and make us lose control, but some of us spend our whole lives looking for true love and that chance to be in its presence. It is such a strange obsession and we’ll probably never understand it, but I doubt we will ever stop searching for it.

Umbilical hernia in adults: treatment without surgery (reviews)
If there is such a disease as an umbilical herniaadults, treatment without surgery is almost impossible, even despite the fact that today this disease is studied very well. Nevertheless, the problem of prevention, as well as the prevention of this disease, is, unfortunately, still very acute. Meanwhile, a relapse can lead to a serious restriction of physical activity of an adult, the patient's quality of life worsens. In particular, this applies to patients of retirement age and pre-retirement age, as well as women who are experiencing the postpartum period.
If there is any sign of this disease, you should immediately contact a specialist.
What are the varieties of this ailment?
Under this ailment in medicine, it is considered to be the "exit" of the navel under the skin, this is its position when it starts to bulge. Umbilical hernia consists of: hernial tunnel, sac and contents.
This disease is usually attributed to hernia belly. They are very difficult to get rid of at home. It is for this reason, if there is an umbilical hernia in adults, treatment without surgery can be a great danger. All ailments related to this group are treated solely through surgery. Suffer from this disease most often a female person older than thirty-five years, because after giving birth, the umbilical ring has a tendency to weaken.
Such hernias in adults in mostcases have huge hernial sacs, the contents of which is the navel. Manifestations of ailment largely depend on the size of both the hernia itself and the hernial tunnel, inflammatory processes, and also the degree of obesity, often accompanying this disease.
Umbilical hernia can be uncontrollable andguided. In the first case, as a rule, the bag grows together with the surrounding muscular tissue. Sometimes the disease in adults does not cause them great anxiety. But this is only on the condition that the tunnels are sufficiently wide, and hernias can move freely. If their size is too large, and the hernial tunnel is too narrow, there may be problems with the movement of the contents of the intestine, resulting in severe constipation or acute pain in the abdominal region, nausea, resulting in vomiting.
Especially, all this is relevant for uncontrolled hernias in adults. And obesity, very often present in patients, only worsens their general condition.
Hernias tend to infringe. This especially applies to patients of pre-retirement and retirement age. This, in turn, is another reason why, in the presence of a disease such as umbilical hernia in adults, treatment without surgery is almost impossible. The more it is clamped, the harder it is to remove. It should be remembered that umbilical hernia of any size can be impaired.
How to identify the problem? People who suffer from this disease say that the most characteristic sign of clenching is a sharp pain in the area of protrusion, as well as the uncontrollability of hernias, which could earlier easily be returned to their original position. With these symptoms, you need to urgently go to a specialist.
How to cure umbilical hernia in adults at home?
In the presence of such a disease, as umbilicalhernia in adults, treatment at home, as already mentioned above, is almost impossible. But there are some ways that, nevertheless, are worth trying. Patients with such ailment respond positively to this method, such as strengthening the abdominal walls with a special massage or thanks to special therapeutic gymnastics.
You can seal the umbilical hernia with adhesive plaster, but you should do it very carefully. This can lead to irritation on the skin, and it, in turn - to infection.
Is treatment possible with the help of common folk remedies?
In the presence of such a disease, as umbilicalhernia in adults, treatment with folk remedies is possible only if it is not complicated and there are no serious contraindications. These include any acute disease or exacerbation of any chronic problems, severe illnesses of the cardiac and vascular system, respiratory organs, as well as early pregnancy.
What to do if the diagnosis is "umbilical hernia in adults"? Treatment with folk remedies, reviews about which are completely different, implies procedures that are easy to do on their own.
How can you cure umbilical hernia with phytotherapy?
Treatment of hernias with phytotherapy iswidely popular method. Patients report notable improvements after such activities. To do this, take one tablespoon of the so-called plakun-grass (it's also a dervine ivylist), crush it thoroughly and pour a glass of boiling water. After that, well, roll up the container and wait until it cools down. Then the resulting infusion should be carefully filtered and drunk before meals in the amount of 50 ml.
Patients note that the effect of this infusionon the body is favorable, it restores the normal functionality of all organs. It is recommended to use this tool in combination with others.
Treatment with camphor oil
Another very common folkA tool used in the treatment of this disease in adults is a compress of camphor oil. Patients assure that it has a beneficial effect directly on the very area of the bulge. In order to prepare such a compress, you need to take the usual camphor oil, which is sold in any pharmacy. As an alternative, you can use pine gum, but it must necessarily be harvested in advance.
Pine grease or camphor oilmelted in a water bath, and after it has cooled, it is necessary to mold small sizes of roundwood from the resulting mass. It must be put on a bulge, pre-lubricated with camphor oil, and fixed with a plaster.
How can you cure an ailment with the help of a folk remedy - a copper pyataka?
In the presence of such a disease, as umbilicalhernia in adults, treatment with folk remedies (copper penny in particular) is very common. Not everyone knows about its beneficial effect on the body, so forget about this method. But people who have tried this method, speak about its effectiveness.
It is necessary to make a tightening binding. To do this, you need to take a five-kopeck coin (preferably an old sample), wrap it with a soft cloth and apply as much as possible to the umbilical hernia. After that, it should be fixed with a band-aid or bandage. This procedure should be done for three days.
Patients say that an integrated approach and patience help get rid of such a diagnosis as umbilical hernia in adults. Treatment, photos of patients confirm this, it turns out to be effective.
"Magic" drug from the umbilical hernia
To prepare a drug from the umbilical hernia,requires oatmeal. It should be cooked until it becomes thick and slippery. After that, the porridge should cool down. Then a cake is molded from it and applied to the navel area. People who have tried this method say that the result can be seen only after one and a half weeks, and only if the procedure is carried out daily.
The operation to remove the "big navel" in adults
Experts argue that with such a disease,as an umbilical hernia in adults, treatment without surgery is almost impossible. Therefore, it is important to know when to do without surgical intervention. The operation is done in those cases when it is required to make a complete removal of the umbilical hernia in an adult. Before it is carried out, the patient receives general anesthesia.
Very often there is a diagnosis like umbilicalhernia in adults. Treatment, feedback about the effectiveness of which may differ, most often lies in surgical intervention. Therefore, if folk methods do not help, do not postpone the visit to the doctor.

Panasonic has launched the first-ever soundbar to support both DTS:X and DTS Virtual: X audio, meaning users will have the choice between object-based surround sound and virtual surround sound in one package.
DTS:X is a type of cinema sound codec that uses object-based audio to position different sounds in a 3D space, much like its competitor, Dolby Atmos.
Although it provides an immersive sound, DTS:X requires multiple speakers, including upward-firing tweeters. Of course, not everyone has the space for a full surround sound setup, which is why the inclusion of DTS Virtual: X in the Panasonic HT-SCB01 is so exciting.
Instead of physically assigning sound to different speakers, DTS Virtual: X electronically simulates the sound of a full surround sound speaker setup, without the need for multiple speakers.
So, in theory, you can get the full cinematic sound experience by using your soundbar alone.
The soundbar itself will initially only be available in Japan, with no word yet on pricing or an official release date.
We have seen soundbars that feature DTS Virtual: X before; Yamaha released the MusicCast BAR 400, a $499 (£500 / AU$800) soundbar with Hi-Res Audio support up to 192kHz with 24-bit resolution, virtual DTS:X support and MusicCast multi-room audio functionality.

With less than a week left before the end of the legislative session, intensive lobbying by physicians groups and cost concerns have undermined progress on the centerpiece of a bill package designed to end the excessive use of psychotropic drugs on California's foster youth.
"SB 253 is really key -- it's the linchpin of this whole package because the courts are the gatekeepers, and if the gatekeepers are not doing their job, everything else is not going to come together to solve the problem," said Bill Grimm, senior attorney with the National Center for Youth Law, a major backer of the bills. "The opposition that's been mounted by the medical community is unconscionable."
Monning's bill is supported by the state's Judicial Council, but opposition has been building: On Wednesday, the California Medical Association, the California Psychiatric Association, the California Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and the California Alliance of Child and Family Services, representing residential group homes, released a surprising last-minute "Assembly floor alert" calling for a no vote.
According to filings with the California Secretary of State, the groups opposing the bill have spent more than $1.4 million between Jan. 1 and June 30 lobbying the Legislature, an amount equal to more than $11,000 per business day. The alliance representing residential facilities alone spent more than $325,000. (Continue Reading)

Catfish and The Bottlemen are four lads from Llandudno who play loud, explosive, sexy rock and roll songs. Full of guitars and energy with tunes about regular stuff. Everyday tales of love and lust and what happens when the lights go down. Comprising Van McCann (21 – lead vocals/guitar), Billy Bibby (23 – lead guitar), Benji Blakeway (23 – bass) and Bob Hall (20 – drums), the Bottlemen played over 100 shows last year in the UK and Europe. Bumping into Carl Barat in Germany he invited them to play his weekly club Jubilee in London, they supported The Wombats to a rapturous reception in Liverpool, they charmed The Vaccines when they dragged them to a gig in Cardiff and kicked off 2012 with a sold out sweaty show at Club NME at Koko.

Colorado —Three years after legalizing cannabis, Colorado has the lowest unemployment rate in the country. “While the national unemployment rate dropped to 4.3 percent in May, the lowest since 2001, Colorado’s jobless rate is the nation’s lowest at 2.3 percent,” CNBC reported Monday.
According to Governor John Hickenlooper, multiple factors have contributed to Colorado’s job growth, including the state’s business-friendly policies. He touts the state’s very low business tax rate, noting Colorado has “one of the lowest business income tax levels at just a little over 4.6 percent.”
This approach has helped create over 60,000 jobs in the clean energy sector, a fact that should please both business and environmental advocates. One of the main factors in Colorado’s successful economy, however, is undeniably the cannabis industry.
Last year, cannabis generated $1.3 billion in profit, which yielded nearly $200 million in tax revenue that the state is using for various programs, including education, substance abuse, and cannabis awareness programs for youth, and even the Attorney General’s office.
Further, with over a billion dollars in business, jobs undoubtedly follow.
In 2015, alone, the state’s cannabis industry created 18,000 new full-time jobs. As the Washington Post reported:
“These indirect impacts of marijuana legalization came from increased demand on local goods and services: growers rent warehouse space and purchase sophisticating lighting and irrigation equipment, for instance. Marijuana retailers similarly rely on other companies, like contractors, lawyers and book-keeping services, to conduct their own businesses.”
That growth has continued. In July of last year, CBS reported that according to the Marijuana Business Daily, “Colorado now has 27,000 occupational licensees, up from about 16,000 at the end of 2014, according to the Colorado Department of Revenue.”
Though clean energy jobs currently outnumber on-the-record cannabis jobs by roughly 35,000, the speed of job creation appears far quicker with weed. According to the Denver Business Journal, for example, the clean energy sector created 1,583 new jobs in 2014. By comparison, the Marijuana Business Daily reported in May of 2014 that less than six months after legalization, the cannabis industry had already generated between 1,000 and 2,000 new jobs — roughly the same number of jobs as clean energy created in the course of the whole year.
Further, according to a 2016 Clean Jobs Colorado report by the organization Environmental Entrepreneurs, Colorado already had 62,000 clean energy jobs in 2015 — roughly where it rests now — making that industry’s growth apparently slower than the 18,000 new cannabis-related jobs the Post reported for the same year (it’s important to note, however, that some of these jobs already existed but were part of the black market and were counted as “new” when the industry was legalized).
This is promising news not just for Colorado, but the broader market. “Cannabis-related companies now employ an estimated 100,000 to 150,000 full and part-time workers, according to a new report by Marijuana Business Daily,” CBS noted last year.
As Business Insider pointed out in March, “California, home to the world’s sixth largest economy, fully legalized marijuana last November. Its state capital region alone could see 20,000 jobs created if it becomes a hub for the industry.”
According to a report from the New Data Frontier, which focuses on cannabis industry data, there could be as many as 283,000 jobs in cannabis by 2020. Business Insider points out that this figure will outpace the manufacturing industry, which is expected to lose 814,000 jobs by 2024.
In Colorado, where Governor Hickenlooper initially opposed legalization but changed his mind when he saw the positive results, there are yet to be serious negative consequences. Though Hickenlooper told CNBC it’s still “too soon to know” what the downsides may be, he remained optimistic. “We don’t see more people doing more marijuana in Colorado after legalization. It’s through a regulated process now,” he said.
“But we haven’t seen a big spike in teenage consumption, we haven’t seen a big spike in any consumption.”
It appears the only spike so far has been in jobs, coupled with other forward-thinking developments like the growth of the clean energy sector and the freedom for businesses to thrive.

Drama Rating: 7/10 Neck Score: A
lizabreff (who loves Lee Dong Wook) and we had the best time of it. I still occasionally break out into a chorus of "You are sooooo beautiful!" which was the awesome Junsu OST (yay JYJ!). Junsu didn't just do the OST for this show, he had a cameo appearance too, which showed me to be much for of a fangirl for Junsu than I thought (I still love you Jaejoong!) As silly as the plot is with a girl realizing she has terminal cancer and deciding to live her life instead of wasting it at the sucky job she has and so suddenly has a rich chaebol dude fall in love with her is, it was so much fun to watch. Both men (named "Sad Puppy" and "Grumpy Cat" by us) were very loveable. There really wasn't that huge love triangle type deal, because Grumpy Cat (Uhm Ki Joon) was just a friend who wanted the best for her, even if he unknowingly made Sad Puppy(Lee Dong Wook) jealous and thus take more action. Even though the plot is sad, with her basically dying through the whole show, it was still hopeful and funny enough to make up for it. However, this might just be the whole experience of watching with friends that made me like it more. It's pretty silly really, and the other girl is a bitca who pulls lots of nasty tricks. However, the chemistry between the main couple is off the charts, and that sexy tango scene... wow. Sad Puppy makes it sexy (even when Grumpy Cat is a better dancer). So even if the premise or actual show is still, grab a friend and watch it anyways, because it is compelling enough to keep you watching despite all else.

An adventure junkie isn’t just satisfied with traveling to non-mainstream destinations, it takes a gutsy activity and a daring challenge to satisfy any adrenaline seeking wanderlust. Thankfully, the Philippine has a huge pool of natural cliff diving spots. But always keep in mind to be very careful when participating in a cliff diving activity, especially if you’re a newbie!
It’s always best to have a guide escort you to the peak in order to pace you through an unforgettable jump. But for those who are looking for more than the diving fun but a beautiful space to match the unforgettable experience, here are the five best cliff diving spots we’ve scouted in the Philippines:
Buho Rock, Cebu
30 feet above sea water, Buho Rock used to be a full functioning resort. However, because it is currently run by government, the resort has been a tourist spot because of its cliff diving scenery.
It’s not that easy to reach the destination however, you’ll to depart from Danao Port and hop on a boat to reach Camotes Island. But with a view like theirs, a longer trip is worth it.

Alumnus Endows Second Scholarship at Penn College
The Jeff Erdly Scholarship will provide award preferences to Penn College full-time students who have graduated from Selinsgrove Area High School and are enrolled in any major. Second preference will be given to Penn College students who have a home residence in Snyder County.
In October, Erdly, a 2004 recipient of Penn College’s Distinguished Alumnus Award, made a presentation to students of the School of Construction & Design Technologies titled “Just Another Brick in the Wall? A Building Science Education-Its Value to Society, and a Road Map to Building Your Career.”
“I have been very fortunate to have had some success in a field that I am passionate about,” Erdly said. “The preservation of buildings is one way to leave a legacy. The creation of this scholarship is another. Hopefully, I can help future Penn College students receive the foundational education I received.”
“We are extremely grateful to Jeff for establishing his second named scholarship to benefit Penn College students as part of the Penn College Scholarship Campaign,” said Robb Dietrich, executive director of the Penn College Foundation. “It is especially gratifying when our alumni give back to the institution so generously because they attribute at least a small part of their success to the education they received while at Penn College or one of its predecessor institutions.”
Erdly also endowed the Carl and Bonnie Erdly Memorial Scholarship in memory of his parents in 2011. The award preferences for that scholarship are students who are enrolled full time, who are enrolled in any program at Penn College; and who have a home residence in either Columbia, Northumberland, Snyder or Union counties.

Human Rights Watch Turkey Director Emma Sinclair-Webb has called on Turkish authorities to lift what she called a “scandalous” ban on former European parliamentarian and journalist Joost Lagendijk, who was denied entry to the country on Sunday.
Lagendijk tweeted that he was denied entry to Turkey on Sunday on the grounds that he needed to obtain a “special visa” from the Turkish Embassy in the Netherlands.
“Turkish authorities stopped me on my return from Neth at Sabiha Gökcen airport. I am not allowed in. Send back to Neth on 8.30 flight. Need to apply for a special visa at Turk embassy in Neth. Hope it is only a bureaucratic obstacle and not a decision to block me forever,” Lagendijk said in subsequent tweets on Sunday.
Sinclair-Webb voiced her criticism of the ban imposed on Lagendijk from her Twitter account on Monday.
“In Sabiha Gökçen airport saw @joostlagendijk one of most even-handed & balanced commentators on Turkey who has been denied entry. Turkish gov’t should lift scandalous entry ban on @joostlagendijk immediately,” she wrote in a series of tweets.
Lagendijk was a columnist with Turkish dailies Zaman and Today’s Zaman, both of which were closed down under a state of emergency decree issued by the Turkish government after a coup attempt on July 15.
He was a former Green Left Member of the European Parliament (MEP) and served as joint chairman of the European Parliament Delegation to the EU-Turkey Joint Parliamentary Committee. In 2006 Lagendijk was married to Nevin Sungur, an award-winning journalist and reporter for the Turkish channel NTV.
Lagendijk’s wife Sungur also provided information about her husband’s latest situation from her Twitter account on Monday, saying that she talked to Emma Sinclair-Webb from Human Rights Watch, who told her she saw Lagendijk waiting at Sabiha Gökçen Airport to board a plane.
“She told me he looked fine. Since he does not have a phone, we still haven’t been able to talk to each other, but a warm welcome is waiting for him in the Netherlands. I hope he will feel better,” wrote Sungur.
In the meantime, pro-government dailies on Monday ran stories in support of Lagendijk’s denial of entry to Turkey. One such newspaper wrote, “Get your visa and come.”

Toronto, ON – Beverly Gagnon of Morrisburg is living her dreams to the max as she won a $1 million MAXMILLIONS prize in the December 13, 2013 LOTTO MAX draw.
“Normally, I buy my tickets in the afternoon but that Friday, my husband didn’t feel well so I didn’t get out,” said Beverly, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to claim her prize. “But I had that feeling . . . so my husband drove me to the store that evening so that I could get my tickets.”
Beverly and her husband checked her tickets online the next morning. “We were so excited and couldn’t believe that I had a winner. Then we went to the store to validate the ticket and make sure we were right.”
The retiree has been playing the lottery for the past 13 years. It is her second big win. She won $100,000 with LOTTO 6/49 in November 2012.
The couple plans to purchase a new car, finish remodeling their house and put the rest into savings.
The winning ticket was purchased at Mac’s on Ottawa Street in Morrisburg.
Since its launch in September 2009, Ontario LOTTO MAX players have won over $1.9 billion in prizes, including 31 jackpot wins and 176 winning MAXMILLIONS tickets from all across the province.

Oh boy, the title to this missive is certain to send the leftists in America into an apoplectic meltdown. However, consider how the left has made it a routine to call anyone that disagrees with them “extremists,” their favorite denigration of constitutional conservatives. And, consider the recent declaration that the five million law-abiding, legal, gun-owning members of the National Rifle Association are terrorists. Yes, that is what liberal, progressive, elected officials — namely the Governor of Connecticut — has deemed the NRA, the nation’s oldest civil rights organization.
I start out by presenting these facts because the left operates in the realm of emotional hyperbole and excessive ranting. I will now present my case, which will further cause much consternation for the progressive socialist left.
The great similarity of the progressive socialist left and Islamo-fascists is that they both embrace revisionist history by way of eliminating any philosophical existence of which they disagree. As if it were not enough to have witnessed the Taliban destruction of the Buddhist statues in Bamiyan province. Or recall, if you may, the rampage of the Islamic State to destroy historical artifacts in Palmyra Syria and Christian heritage sites in Iraq. All this was because there is no other belief than that of islamic totalitarianism, all else is sinful and must not be tolerated.
And so it is for those who refuse to subjugate themselves to progressive socialism, ya know, those or so tolerant leftists. Now that we have undergone their insatiable desire to erase the Confederate history, misguided at they were, here in Dallas we saw the City Council remove the statue of General Robert E. Lee from, yes, Lee Park. All across our Country we witnessed the attacks on Confederate memorials and statues, you know, those silent pieces of art were just sooo offensive. Now, the left is turning their angst against a new type of memorial, statue.
As reported by Fox News:
“Outrage from Native American activists and their supporters has led a liberal California city closer to tearing down what they considered an offensive monument — to President William McKinley. It’s the latest in a string of moves to scrap monuments decried as offensive to Native Americans — coming after the nationwide controversy over statues of Confederate leaders. The activists in Arcata, Calif., some 280 miles north of San Francisco, wanted the city’s 8½-foot bronze statue of McKinley taken down because they said the 25th president of the United States was a proponent of “settler colonialism” that “savaged, raped and killed,” the Seventh Generation Fund for Indigenous People told The Los Angeles Times. In February the City Council of the sanctuary city voted 4 to 1 to get rid of the statue. “Is there a difference between honoring McKinley and Robert E. Lee?” Mayor Sofia Pereira told the Times. “They both represent historical pain.” The statue has been in Arcata Plaza since 1906, according to the Times, when a local businessman gave it to the city to honor “the first modern president.” McKinley, an expansionist president, was born in Ohio and assassinated early in his second term. He was shot at the Buffalo Pan-American Exposition in September 1901, and died eight days later.”Can't allow folks to remember that the Democrats voted against ending slavery. Click To Tweet
The message here is that if you are an American historical figure — or any historical figure — that has done anything that the progressive socialist left deems offensive, they are coming after your memorial or statue. So, just wait, if the left ever attains power in America, you can expect the figures on Mount Rushmore to be destroyed — perhaps they will consult with the Taliban on how best to do it? You know, Washington and Jefferson owned slaves, Lincoln was the first Republican president . . . and he ended slavery. Can’t allow folks to remember that the Democrats voted against ending slavery. And, Theodore Roosevelt, well, he was an imperialist American who hated brown people. Therefore, the progressive socialist left will remake Mount Rushmore with Franklin Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnson, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. Hmm, if the good folks in Arcata, CA are blaming President McKinley as a proponent of rape, what does the left think of Bill Clinton? Ahh, that’s right, he does not offend the liberal progressive left.
Now, you know what’s funny: Margaret Sanger was a white supremacist — a racist — and spoke at Ku Klux Klan rallies. We just, once again, gave some $568.7M to the organization she founded. Sanger is not offensive to the progressive socialist left, even if she did refer to blacks as “weeds” and “undesirables.” Quite fitting that “Ms. Deplorables,” Hillary Clinton was given the Margaret Sanger award by Planned Parenthood. Yes, the left is offended by folks who were proponents of “settler colonialism” against indigenous people, but those people who are proponents of killing innocent unborn babies and selling their body parts are just fine.
So, when will the left start tearing down statues of West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd, the former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard? Nah, that’s the fella who was praised by Bill and Hillary Clinton, along with Barack Obama upon his death.
Another means of similarity between progressive socialists and Islamo-fascists is, well, fascism. Neither of those two groups desire any opposition voice to be heard. I mean think about it, as a Christian Constitutional Conservative I have little to no chance of delivering a speech at the University of California-Berkeley or Cairo University. But, the funny thing is, Barack Obama delivered a speech at the latter. And, at that speech he insisted that members of the Muslim Brotherhood be seated front and center. Quite telling, wouldn’t you say?
Perhaps this is why during the reign of Barack Obama we did little to thwart the onslaught of Islamo-fascism?
I have not proffered any emotional hyperbole here, but simply tied together facts. I ask you a simple question: do you really want to see the progressive socialist left attain power in America again? If they do, realize that anything that offends them — basically anything in opposition to their ideological agenda — is targeted for destruction. If you still do not believe me, look at what Obama and the left did to the constitutional conservative grassroots movement called the Tea Party. Yes, they unleashed the power of the federal government against them, via the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). And still to this day, not a doggone person has been held responsible, or accountable.
Progressive socialists and Islamic fascists are driven by two great similarities, their intolerance of anything that’s not consistent with their beliefs, and their hypocrisy. And that folks is non-debatable.

Survivor has an 'Eye' on Shippensburg
Rock band to bring greatest hits to Pa. venue
SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. — Frankie Sullivan has been a guitarist with the band Survivor since 1976. He’s the only original member to stick with the group for nearly 40 years, but his reasons for keeping up after so many years are simple.
“I still like to play guitars a lot. I still like guitars a lot. I collect them, I’m intrigued with them, they’re cool,” Sullivan said during a telephone interview from Chicago, where he lives.
“So I still like the sounds and I like to play. There’s just certain aspects I don’t like about the business, yeah, but I haven’t liked them for 40 years, but hey, you just gotta deal. It is what it is. It’s that simple.”
Sullivan, along with the rest of the band, will perform at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 26, at H. Ric Luhrs Center for the Performing Arts on the campus of Shippensburg University.
Sullivan said anything goes at their gigs.
“Whenever people say, ‘What can you expect?’ you really don’t know how to answer that, you know, because you show up, everybody has a good time and it’s fun, and then you go home, theoretically. Sometimes you have a really great night; that’s one of the goals, I guess. But you take it a day at a time,” he said.
The band had hits including “The Search is Over,” “High On You” and “I Can’t Hold Back,” but it is best known for the 1982 smash “Eye of the Tiger,” which spent seven weeks at No. 1. The single was part of the soundtrack to the hit movie “Rocky III.” Film star Sylvester Stallone tapped the band to record a song for the film.
The story goes that Stallone was good friends with Tony Scotti, the president of of Scotti Brothers, Survivor’s record company at the time. Scotti recommended Survivor to record a song, and Stallone reached out to the band with his request. Sullivan said the story has often gotten lost in translation.
“It was a phone call — that’s it — that lasted like 30 seconds and maybe a couple minutes, and then that was it,” he recalled. “I’ve read everything about that (call). ‘The call that rocked the world’ and all that. I’m like, ‘What, did Ronald Reagan call the Russians and tell them to go off to war?’”
Sullivan and then-bandmate Jim Peterik got right to work on the song.
“We wrote the music in 10 minutes. The lyrics took three days,” he said.
The result was just what Stallone was seeking.
“He loved ‘Tiger.’ I remember from day one, he loved it, loved it,” Sullivan said.
“Eye of The Tiger” scored Survivor a Grammy for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal, a People’s Choice Award, and nominations for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe.
Sullivan said having that song on his résumé was life-changing. The single has been downloaded more than 7 million times worldwide on iTunes.
“I’m always like, ‘When’s that tiger gonna wear out?’ It’ll never wear out. Keeps going. But that’s OK. I was thinking the other day, we should pull back on it. But so many people like it. Let ’em like it. Let ’em use it,” he said, referring to a 2010 Starbucks commercial that featured Survivor singing to a man named Glen.
New blood, same hits
Original lead singer Dave Bickler left Survivor in 1983 after developing polyps on his vocal cords. He rejoined the band a few times over the years, along with vocalist Jimi Jamison, who died in 2014. Last year, Survivor hired a new singer, Cameron Barton.
Sullivan had nothing but good things to say about the 22-year-old.
“We can play any song in our catalog whenever we want. (Barton) can sing the phone book, much less our catalog. Yeah, he does a great job. He’s a really good singer. He’s also a great frontman. He’s learned quick. He’s great and all, but at the end of the day, you gotta entertain people. You gotta be born with that swagger,” he said.
Barton, according to Sullivan, has the swagger Survivor needs to stay relevant.
“I think this time around might be the best time. But we only started working again about four or five months ago, but when it’s new like that, it’s fresh, and when it’s fresh, you tend to be more inspired playing it,” Sullivan said.
The band tends to focus on its hits and hasn’t released new music since the 2006 CD “Reach.” Sullivan, who said he’s always been a songwriter, is on the fence about recording new music.
“For a while, I thought, ‘Why record new music? Where’s it going to go?’ People don’t really buy CDs anymore, do they? We all know that. I mean, most people stream (music).”
“I listen to a lot of music, but nobody else does. You just have to focus and say, ‘Come on, let’s just go out and have a good time and put on great shows for the fans, and then we’ll get it,’” he said.

TOLEDO — Members of the Toledo City Council voted 4-2 to invest in the Georgia-Pacific Pulp and Paper Mill’s strategic investment program, or SIP, after considerable discussion over the viability of the program, among other community concerns.
Through the SIP, GP can receive a 15-year property tax exemption if they invest a certain amount of money in a qualified capital construction or equipment program.
The much-debated investment stems from the mill’s recycling program, which some members of the greater Toledo community said in weeks past could further pollute the environment, while still others said they’re wary of supporting the mill’s SIP effort.
“They don’t like the fact that we are paying, or are willing to pay yet again, for a multi-billion dollar corporation,” said Toledo City Councilor Betty Kamikawa of residents’ apprehension. “We could be giving away everything. That’s just not a good way to be anymore. It’s never worked in the past to the advantage of the citizens, and I don’t see it working to our advantage in the future.”
Koch Industries, which owns Georgia-Pacific LLC, has enough money to pay for its own business investments, Kamikawa said, and the company never quite answers her questions directly.
“We never get a direct answer, and we never get the truth,” Kamikawa said. “So just tell us what’s going to happen. We would like to know what’s really going on.”
Despite concerns that the town could lose out on its investment if the mill shut down, some city councilors were in favor of participating in the investment to keep it operational.
Without Toledo’s participation in the SIP program, Mayor Rod Cross said, the mill could be in danger of closing. That would leave a large number of the people in the community out of work, he said.
“My friends and neighbors who work at that mill would be out of a job and having to look for a place,” Cross said. “I’ve seen that in other places I’ve lived, and it’s not pretty. I’m trying to balance all of that and that’s why I want to see if we can get to an agreement that everyone can live with.”
The SIP program is directly tied to the innovative new Juno Project, the recycling project that could ensure longevity at the GP mill in Toledo for years to come. The project would recycle material that was unrecyclable previously, allowing the mill to manufacture new paper and packaging products. The effort would divert millions of pounds of material away from landfills. Toledo is partnering with Lincoln County in the SIP program.
Other members of the Toledo City Council, siding with Kamikawa, thought of the multi-jurisdictional SIP program as just another way to squeeze money out of the city.
“I just cannot bring myself to hold my nose and vote for this,” said Bill Dalbey, Toledo city councilor. “This is extortion. The only reason any of us want to vote for this is because we think it will have a good effect in ensuring those jobs stay in our town, but they [Koch Industries] are going to do what they’re going to do regardless of what we do in terms of this SIP proposal.”
However, with jobs at the mill on the line, some city councilors supported the SIP deal in an effort to keep the mill — and those employed there — in town.
“I have a hard time looking my friends and neighbors in the eye and saying, ‘I know everything that’s better for you,’” Cross said. “I have a hard time doing that.”

Tamasha doesn’t underestimate audienceDecember 22, 2015
By Ankita Sarkar
Present scene. Cut to flashback. Cut to Future. Cut to Present.
This was ‘Tamasha’ for certain people. People who didn’t like it. But what they didn’t get was that one needs to understand the movie to like it. And not many people can understand it. It is a movie which is ahead of its time. It’s a movie which makes you think. It’s a movie which makes you question. It is a movie which stays with you long after you have left the theatre.
It was not merely a movie for me. It was my whole life compiled in couple of hours. As it was for many people. The ones who could relate to it loved the analogies it drew. The nitty-gritty’s it paid attention to. And the sequence of action.
The non linear form of story-telling which drew most of the criticism was also the one to bring in the optimum amount of praise. Imtiaz Ali is not only a director, he is a story teller. Probably one of the best story tellers the industry could ever have. And for once, he is not someone who spoon feeds the audience. He doesn’t underestimate them. He makes a film which allows the audience to think and reciprocate. Tamasha is everybody’s story. It’s a story of sacrifice, compromise, realisations and intersections. It’s a story love and loss. Of success and failure. Of possibilities and impossibilities.
But it’s no ‘Jab We Met’ or ‘Love Aaj Kal’. One needs to have the perspective to absorb the scenes .It’s simple yet intricate. And its simplicity is its biggest distinguisher. It stands out not because of its plot, but because of the brilliant execution. Although Deepika does a marvelous job it is actually Ranbir who leaves a mark. Starting from the split-personality scenes to the last scene, it is his show. And as his grandfather would say, the show must go on.
Tamasha is a visual and intellectual treat. The last scene will leave you broken in places that you didn’t know existed. You will cry and smile and leave the theatre with a happy sad feeling. And when anybody asks you to tell them your take on the movie, you will be at a loss of words. You will probably smile to yourself and tell them to watch it and take a call themselves. Only you will know how you felt and more importantly, why you felt that way. It’ll touch you somewhere deep down and leave a permanent mark in a dusty old corner of your heart which you had almost forgotten about. It’ll make you feel alive again. It’s not just a movie; it is an experience in itself.

A consortium which has bought the agricultural division of Solid Energy's Biodiesel New Zealand says it intends to export to Asia in the future.
Pure Oil is owned by Midlands Seed, Southern Packers, agronomist Roger Lasham and manager Nick Murney.
The business includes the oil seed rape crop production, the oil extraction facility at Rolleston and product marketing.
Pure Oil says the Rolleston facility is operating at only a third of its capacity at the moment and intends to double that in the next two to three years.
Managing director Nick Murney says the company sells the product as canola oil to food industries. It's used in McDonalds and Heinz Wattie's products and is also sold as meal for stock feed mainly for the dairy and pork industries.
He says currently Pure Oil is focusing on the New Zealand market, but in time the company sees there will be an export opportunity.
Mr Murney says vegetable oil grown in New Zealand has a point of difference because it is GE-free and has the New Zealand Inc brand.
