Posted on October 17, 2019 by grossmoviereviews
Commando Squad (DVD) – A Fred Olen Ray action flick from 1987 that has more names in it than it does action. An undercover cop Clint (Brian Thompson) is in Mexico trying to put a stop to a cocaine growing and processing plant run by an ex-cop (William Smith) who is trying to recruit Clint once he is captured. Of course William Smith's partner in crime is played by Sid Haig wants Clint dead and stop wasting time. But Clint's old partner Kat played by Kathy Shower has been sent in for the rescue as she sidekicks her way through the whole drug cartel! I am a huge Brian Thompson fan, William Smith was fun, and Sid Haig was the best part of the film but there wasn't anything there plot wise. The film just drags for a very long time so I can only give it 2 stars if that?
The Devil's Bride (DVD) – A late 60s flick starring Christopher Lee as this Duke who swore to look out for this young man named Simon. Even if Simon does not want help the Duke swore to help and protect him. During a surprise visit the Duke finds Simon wrapped up with Satanists and they are having a party as they are about to have their circle of 13. The British movie is craziness of The Duke vs. Black Magic that features blood, sacrifices, strange images, possible orgies, The Devil, and even The Angel of Death! And Christopher Lee is just a plain bad ass in this taking it all on in order to save Simon. Fun Satanist shit that I give 3 stars.
3 From Hell (Theater) – Rob Zombie's latest picks up from the end of "The Devil's Rejects" where the three have taken on 20 bullets a piece in their bodies and somehow survived. After a quick court process all three are convicted but questions are raised on what exactly they did and how much? They become legendary figures in the media and ten years pass by. During that time Captain Spaulding is executed for his crimes so cue 'we need a new character' Richard Brake comes in as Otis' half-brother. When Baby is denied parole and Otis escapes prison the brothers come up with a plan to break Baby out. Once out the three head for Mexico for safety but once again they must fight for their lives against Luchador assassins. This all sounds great in theory but in my opinion without getting too much into it just because if you like it? Good for you I am glad but personally I just feel Rob Zombie should have left this one alone and moved on to a different project. The film isn't bad or anything I just feel he should have left the "Devil's Rejects" ending alone as I give the movie 1 ½ stars.
Hell House LLC III: Lake of Fire (Shudder/DVD) – So it is now ten years since the original horrific events of the hotel went down. It is October 2018 and the hotel is scheduled for demolition but some super rich dude (Russell Wynn) steps in last second and buys the hotel. He wants the hotel to host his haunting interactive show called 'Insomnia' which people loved in New York. So why move the show in the sticks? Well he would like everyone to believe no matter where this new haunting attraction is at people will find it and pay to get in. But we have seen the other two movies and know something is up immediately but you won't quite know why until closer to the end of the film. With this event happening in the hotel a new host for 'Morning Mysteries' is there to document everything but just like any normal person she is very leery of going in the hotel. Again strange things begin to happen until it leads up to opening night and its then you learn why Wynn bought the hotel in the first place. Great wrap up story as I give the movie 3 stars.
Little Monsters (On Demand) – Another amazing horror film comes from Australia, big surprise there… The film begins innocently enough about a man who has relationship and job trouble. When he and his girlfriend break up after nine years this sends David to live with his older sister and five year old kid. Of course Uncle David tries to be the cool Uncle but is very unsure what it is like to act like in front of kids. After David meets the kid's teacher Miss Caroline, David immediately falls in love so he volunteers for a field trip a farm with the class. Believing this will help him get closer to Miss Caroline. Meanwhile, a U.S. military top secret facility is host to Project: Regeneration is right next to Pleasant Valley Farm where the kids' field trip is at. Project: Regeneration has broken containment and unbeknownst to David and the kids, Teddy McGiggles turns into a real asshole when the zombie apocalypse happens! Miss Caroline's goal is to keep the kids safe at all costs in this hilarious and light-hearted zombie flick. This is an absolutely lovable rewatchable zombie film that will most likely make my top ten list of 2019 as I give it 4 stars.
The 7th Victim (DVD) – An early 40s flick that tackles satanic cults where a young woman named Mary leaves school to go looking for her sister Jacqueline. She arrives in New York to look for her sister only to find Jacqueline's husband and a lot of stories about her. Mary reports her missing to the police but a private investigator takes a personal interest in the case. When they believe they have tracked her down the private dick gets stabbed to death. As Mary unravels the mystery it becomes clear the satanic cult Jacqueline got mixed up with wants her dead but Jacqueline has other plans. The movie is a little slow but a very interesting take on satanic cults at the time that plays out more like a drama than a horror film. Even though I am giving this only 2 stars I do highly recommend giving this film at least one watch to see something cinematically different for the early 40s.
Candy Corn (On Demand) – An all-star cast heads up this Halloween fright flick about a young man Jacob who is a little different from everyone else. A small group of people have hazed Jacob every year on Halloween and this was going to be no different as Jacob now worked for the Freakshow that has rolled into town. The four head to the Freakshow and meet Jacob out back and the hazing goes too far as they kill Jacob. This upsets the barker of the Freakshow Dr. Death and he performs a ritual that brings Jacob's body back with a horrific mask on. Undead Jacob tracks down each person in the group and brutally murders them for revenge. This flick has some great gore shots but overall the movie seems disjointed and doesn't exactly commit to the Jacob storyline as you wanting to know more about the Dr. Death character. Right or wrong the filmmaker may have left out some important scenes concerning this character. Enjoyed Courtney Gains and P.J. Soles characters but like most horror films Tony Todd's character seemed wasted as he is so much more… Don't get me wrong a good Halloween film to check out but not a great one as I give it 2 ½ stars.
Annabelle: Creation (DVD) – So just in case you needed to know how Annabelle came to be I have two words for "Pet Sematary". Yes indeed sometime in the late 30s or early 40s a little girl gets destroyed by a truck and after the parents were praying to whoever would listen… Presto, changeo, killer ghost child is back ready to fuck people up! A dozen years pass by until a group of orphan girls are offered to live at the home. Of course one of them doesn't listen and open the room where Annabelle was hanging out at and now she lurks around for scares. I wasn't expecting much but enjoyed the jump scares and the creepiness it kept from "The Conjuring" films as I give it 2 ½ stars.

Then we get the movie we need right now socially as American soldiers in WWII punch zombies in the face in OVERLORD. And we got some kung fu robot shenanigans in DEATH MACHINES. And as a bonus movie we got a weirdo family drama/high school coming of age/detective/sleazy sex-sploitation flick from the director of Death Wish in SCREAM FOR HELP. We also got the mandatory football chat, listener questions, conspiracies, and news.
http://bloodbathspodcast.blogspot.com/
On this week's show we get to see what happens when computer students turn into murdering masterminds in INTERFACE. Then we go to cheerleader camp in an 80 boner jam… (Or is it) that none of us have ever heard on called GIMME AN F. And finally 6 NFL players come home from Vietnam to avenge some murder in THE BLACK SIX. We also get around to having some football chat, what we've been watching this week, and news!
This week we dig into some Brian DePalma jams in the cross dressing cult favorite DRESSED TO KILL. Then we start to get into the Christmas mood as Bill Goldberg jackhammer powerbombs this way through a ton of b list celebrity cameos in SANTA'S SLAY. And finally Kyle covers an all in one night crime/missing person/mobster jam in RUNNING SCARED. So check it out or Paul Walker will narc you out.
This week we have 4 movies to check out. The first being one of the most touted and beloved films of 2018 in HEREDITARY. Then we have a slasher featuring a killer Santa slasher featuring a bag of dicks… literally in ALL THROUGH THE HOUSE. Then we move on to a killer mutant snowman in JACK FROST featuring gratuitous Shannon Elizabeth side boob. And finally we got an amazing flick that is exclusive to Shudder in TERRIFIED. Spoiler alert!!! One of these movies is one of our most hated movies ever to appear on our show and one is the best.

Night of the Demon (YouTube/DVD) – A professor and his students are studying the Bigfoot and its legend behind it head out to the woods. In these woods there are stories of Bigfoot sightings they are trying to investigate to decide for themselves if it is just a hoax? Along the way the professor tells the stories that have told about encounters with Bigfoot in these woods that include: Bigfoot airplane spinning a camper and ripping a dude's dick off! Even though Bigfoot looks like a giant Irish setter that doesn't stop him from fucking up some Girl Scouts, having Bigfoot vision like Predator, and apparently Bigfoot was so horny he rapes a young lady in the woods. Some hilarious and entertaining shit that is worth revisiting folks as I give it 3 stars.
The Devil's Express (YouTube) – Some crazy ass mid-70s exploitation that involves a martial arts master, a New York street gang, and a Chinese demon that hangs out in the subway system. People are beginning to die in the subways after this master… Luke comes back home from China and this demon follows him some way, somehow. After his best friend is killed by the demon not a street gang Luke takes it upon himself to seek out the entity and end it. The films starts off slow but stick with it as some entertaining shit gets thrown screen in the second half of the film. I give this flick 3 stars.
No Escape Room (SyFy Channel/DVD) – Karen and her father get one weekend a month together and Karen is in her teenager stage of not caring what parents want. When their car breaks down and unsure of what to do until it gets fixed they decide to go a small town "Escape Room". Karen's friends have talked about it and dad feels this is a good way to bond. Once there they are with a few other people and the game begins as they only have 60 minutes to get through the spooky house. As they search for keys to move from room to room some freaky things begin to happen and people playing go missing. A little above average horror film that makes you question if any of the events in the film actually happen or not at all? I give it 2 ½ stars.
Dementia 13 (Remake/DVD) – Very surprised to learn there was a remake of the 1963 classic and this version sticks close to the original concept. An abusing rich husband is killed off by his beautiful wife. A couple weeks go by and the husband's family arrives at the castle for a weird yearly memorial. The family never approved of the wedding but the wife did not care as she had plans with all the money. But the plot thickens when she killed soon after the family arriving by a hooded figure. A horror film about rich people's problems with enough blood spilled and a twist to satisfy the curious viewer as I give it 2 ½ stars.
Amazon Hot Box (DVD) – A crowd-funded project about an innocent college student name Penny who is thrown into prison with a few other women for a minor misunderstanding. This prison isn't a normal prison as it is all "Reform School Girls" inside and Penny is the prize. The island is called Rattica and Warden Inga Von Krupp runs the place in order to carry out her experiments. By the way the evil warden is played perfectly by Ellie Church. In her short career she is making an impact in cinema and people are taking notice. Anyway Krupp enjoys experimenting on the inmates. But Krupp is totally unaware Penny is a KS-13 agent who has been trying to infiltrate the prison to bring it down as another agent tries to break in. The government wants this illegal operation to be brought down. The film is a throwback of sorts to the 'women in prison' movies. It's fun, entertaining, tries its best to hit all the right scenes, but outside Ellie Church's performance the movie is average as I give the film 2 ½ stars.
Sorority Slaughter House (DVD) – A project that stars Eric Roberts, directed by David DeCoteau, and written by Rolfe Kanesky that wasn't produced by Full Moon somehow. Eric Roberts stars as a dean of a college long enough to commit suicide and have his spirit transferred to a clown doll. After a sorority girl played with his emotions the dean now 12 inches tall decides it is his time to go murder a few sorority girls. The movie gets a little dull in the sense we have seen this horror film one too many times but the highlight for me was I believe the movie was made at the same house in "Bigfoot vs. D.B. Cooper" and for that I will always enjoy David DeCoteau. It's bad but a fun bad as I give it 2 stars and don't forget to look for the nerdy girl using the clown as "an appliance with no quit"…
Truth or Dare (SyFy Channel/DVD) – No one cared except the select few cult horror fans know of the Tim Ritter film of the same until this past year where somehow we got two films of the same name but went different directions with the concept. This version goes the twisted route where they make up some simple movie rules for the game that teenagers play. Thirty some years later after a game of Truth or Dare went very tragic some college kids rent the place where it took place and decide to play the game and party. But the game gets out of control quickly as they all get upset with each other and begin to get injured or die because they didn't do the dare. A demon within the home waits for that certain group of people to latch on and not let go until they all die. Wasn't expecting much from the movie but was much better than it should have been as I give it 3 stars.
Scream for Help (DVD) – This weird version of "The Stepfather" and "ABC After School Special" is pretty sleazy and written by Tom Holland in 1984. A 17 year old Christie Cromwell believes her new step father is trying to kill her and her mother. Christie always felt Paul Fox was good looking enough to steal her mother away but had a feeling he wanted her money more. Since no one believes Christie she goes on a crusade to convince her mother he is cheating on her. Once Christie has proof and her mother does believe her, Paul Fox and another couple who are supposed to be brother and sister decide it is time to purge these two! This weirdo flick gets 2 stars and little known fact is the film was only released on DVD within the past few months.
Beyond Atlantis (YouTube) – Sid Haig in an early 70s flick as a pimp who finances a trip for treasure on an island where they encounter natives with big ass eyeballs and a woman that must reproduce! No need to say more as I give it 3 stars.
Death Machines (DVD) – An Asian woman and her three assassins have taken over a sleazy city. If you want to put out a hit on someone you must go through her now as her unstoppable assassins cannot be killed. But off course the three men are getting restless with the dragon lady so they kill her and grab a train ticket. Not a whole lot to the film but it does have some entertaining parts as I give it 2 stars.
Blood Lake (YouTube/VHS) – A really bad shot-on-video slasher flick about a group of people who head out a vacation spot for some partying. The party is cut short when a deranged killer shows up to start killing people in the group. The acting is bad, the lighting is bad; I think I do better camera work, so I think I really enjoyed this bad movie as I am Tim Gross and I give it 2 stars.
13 Ghosts (DVD) – A classic horror from 1960 about a family who inherits a supposedly haunted mansion. The mansion is a home to ghosts that their relative brought from all over the world. Even though the family is haunted by the restless spirits there are even more evil forces at work here trying to get the money that is hidden within the home? I give the classic 3 stars.
Dick Johnson and TommyGun vs. The Cannibal Cop (Blu-ray) – With a title like that you always have my attention just because but it never hurts to have Debbie Rochon and Danny Hicks in your cast also. The movie opens with a woman being abducted in an alley way by a serial killer posing as a police officer. After a detective (TommyGun) gets a piece of info about this he is partnered up with a younger detective Dick Johnson. Together these two are given the go ahead to track down all leads on the case as details have already been leaked to the public. What helps the two unlikely partners is a book made of flesh that was found inside a dufflebag left in the alley way. In Latin the book explains that the killer will keep abducting victims and eating them until he has a hundred souls and he will become a god. As the two detectives set their differences aside to get deeper into the investigation the story takes a nice weird twist. A great buddy cop horror movie that reminds me a little of the 80s film "Dead Heat". This independent flick has lots of laughs and blood and I can get behind that as I give the feature 3 out of 4 stars.

Bloodbaths and Boomsticks News Websites	Bloodbaths and Boomsticks Dark Angel Dolph Lundgren Galaxy of Terror horror I Come in Peace Kyle Poling podcast Roger Corman Sid Haig Tim Gross
Spiders (DVD) – Bootleg Jason Patric aka Patrick Muldoon Christa Campbell take on spiders from space in fake New York. Part of a Russian space station falls to earth into a subway and with it is an experimental spider that has already laid its egg for a queen. Soon the homeless disappear and huge ass spiders begin to fuck people up in this fun adventurous Space spider film. You usually cannot go wrong with mutated creatures from space and for that I am thankful as I give it 2 ½ stars.
Chilling Visions: 5 Senses of Fear (DVD) – Another anthology that tackles human's five senses: Sight, Smell, Hearing, Taste, and Touch. As usual it's a mixed bag and not everyone can have a "Creepshow" or "The Collective" anthology finished product. But don't let that stop you from checking out this project as 'Sight' from Miko Hughes aka little kid from Pet Semetery… does amazing job and one of my favorite young filmmakers Emily Hagins brings a wonderful story for 'touch'. I give the project 2 stars.
Oz the Great and Powerful (DVD) – These days no story or movie to be remade or reimagined is untouchable for Hollywood but to make it interesting they bring in filmmaking horror legend Sam Raimi. He was given the task to bring to life how Oz really became Oz along with the witches, ruby red shoes, and so on and so on. I am a fan of the original classic film that just reinvented cinema but was also able to enjoy this film for what it is 'a prequel'. But saying that I do believe good, bad, or just dumb whatever your opinion is, Raimi brings a very unique style of filming to the movie and without him I most likely feel this movie adaption may have sucked an egg. But with him it made me take a break from massacre and gore films to watch something that is a little off the beaten path for my movie watching taste. For that I have to give the flick 2 ½ stars.
Creature (DVD) – No kiddos, not the William Malone feature from the early 80s, it's a monster film about bayou hillbillies and incest that seem to get buried and not talked about by many. A group of young folk make their way to a haunted part of the bayou where a legend of a crazed half creature/half man roams the swamps and kills looking for his new bride. Sounds simple and cool enough but how about throw in Sid Haig leading a couple hillbilly brothers into the swamp trying to have the young folk killed by this legend to help please their god! Which did I mention apparently incest is a big part of this backwoods religion? Lots of gore, incest, practical make-up and creature, crazed hillbillies, and Sid Haig in one of his best roles since Captain Spaulding. I'm in every time to watch cool shit like this! Horror fans get off your high horse and give this flick a second chance as I give it 3 stars.
Wreckage (DVD) – Don't walk but run away from this so called horror film that makes me believes the screenwriter may have issues? Car breaks down and four friends go to an old junkyard to get parts. Then dumb ass guy who hates his pregnant girlfriend shoots her by mistake and comes up with a corny welder's masked character that kills people in a junkyard for kicks. I wanted to enjoy this movie but found myself disgusted with the film after watching the payoff. It still amazes me what gets released and what doesn't as I give this horrid film a ½ star.
Splatter Farm (DVD) – Been awhile since I have tracked down a Polonia Brothers film and reviewed it, so I figured it was time to sit down and watch the film that help make the Polonia Brothers a household name among 'shot on video' filmmakers. Having watched quite a few of the Polonia Brothers films over the years I wasn't quite prepared for this no budget homage to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre". Most of the Polonia Brothers flicks are comedic or sci-fi flicks with a slasher or two thrown in for fun. So seeing this flick all the through made me have a whole new respect for their filmmaking talents. Two brothers go to visit their aunt who lives in farm country and happens to have an oddball dude living there helping her with chores. Soon the brothers become curious of the odd man and what he does out in the old farmhouse and that was a big mistake for the brothers as they come face to face with gritty brutality that is absolutely gut-wrenching! This film belongs for good reason in "you feel dirty after watching it" category! It's a film I never thought the Polonia Brothers could do and they did and that is why I give it 3 ½ stars.
Rock n Roll High School (DVD) – Or we should just call it the Roger Corman film that happens to star The Ramones and lots of their music! Basic storyline is all Riff Randall wants is to meet The Ramones and give Joey the songs she wrote. Plus her friend wants to get laid. That changes when her Ramones tickets are taken away for skipping three days of school to stand in line for them. Soon the principal wants to start a war with the students about Rock n Roll so she can discipline them and show them the right path in this perfect blend of music and comedy. The Corman film stars the likes of P.J. Soles, Clint Howard, Mary Woronov, Paul Bartel, Dick Miller, and The Ramones of course! I give the flick 4 stars.
Doc of the Dead (DVD) – Another great documentary that covers everything zombies from Max Brooks to George Romero to the black and white flick White Zombie. Lots of cool interviews and clips covering not only the history of movie zombies but even talking about people who actually prepare for the zombie apocalypse. Simon Pegg makes an appearance as does Greg Nicotero along with Tom Savini to show this documentary means business talking everything zombies. So zombie fans shamble to whenever you can a copy of this and enjoy as I give it 4 stars.
X-Men: Days of Future Past (Theater) – Been awhile since I been to the theater and what better way to do it than going opening weekend to see the summer film that brings together old and new X-men universes together. The war is all but lost in the future as Professor X and Magneto believe they have a way to change the future to change everything. This way mutants and humanity will survive the Sentinels. Wolverine's conscious is sent back to 1973 to convince Professor X who has fallen on very hard times and Magneto who is imprisoned 1000 feet underground by the government to come together and stop Mystique/Raven from killing Trask the man who invented the Sentinels. They believe this the event that has set the war in motion and if stopped and changed history will change. The only one that would know of this is Wolverine if he succeeds, if not they all die. Everyone makes an appearance except Gambit in this amazing and wonderful summer film. This is the type of film all should enjoy as it brought out the inner kid in me while watching it. Enjoy this summer movie for what it is a fun popcorn superhero flick and stop being cynical as I give it 4 stars.
Hopscotch (DVD) – A quite different short film from Kirsten Walsh who gives the viewer an intense curveball of an independent film that relies more on its dialogue and performances by its all-female cast than your usually boobs, shitty gore effects, and bad acting that a good portion of independent films rely on. I should know as I have watched and reviewed many as some believe too many at times. But always enjoy when a filmmaker like a Kirsten Walsh produces something like "Hopscotch" that makes you want to pay attention to all dialogue and also has a great uneasy feeling of not sure where the film may take you. But anyway Bridget is an escort who is brought to a big home by a young woman named Jolene. Bridget is there to service a character named Mr. Andre but never sees him when she gets into deep conversation with Jolene and a curious houseguest named Rebecca. From there the film blooms into this great creepy oddity that will have you wanting more especially after the film's interesting ending. Big props to Kirsten Walsh for putting together an independent short film worth talking about as I give it 3 ½ out of 4 stars. You can find out more about the project at www.facebook.com/hopscotchfilm .
Get Crazy (YouTube/VHS) – An absolutely hilariously funny lost classic from 1983 about a man named Max Wolfe whom himself and staff are trying to put together a show for New Year's at The Saturn Theater. Problem is Max Wolfe is dying or thinks he is and its up too Daniel Stern now. The real question is once you start watching is "who isn't in this film" as all the Roger Corman regulars and then some make an appearance in this wacky film of putting a show together that also highlights Malcom McDowell talking to his penis! That alone should make you want to seek this wacky over the top gem. I give the film 3 stars.

BTN LiveBIG: PSU football lifting weights, spirits
Linda Robbins, July 12, 2014
When Penn State football player Scott Shirley learned his father was diagnosed with kidney cancer in 2003, he and his family soon learned that little could be done to treat this debilitating condition.
Yet his Nittany Lion teammates immediately rallied around him - most especially through Lift For Life. This strength-and-conditioning competition was conceived as a way to raise awareness and money for treatment of this rare disease, one of about 7,000 classified as such because it impacts a very small population and thus receives little attention and funding for medical remedies and cures.
Now in its second decade, the Lift For Life event continued at Penn State exclusively until Uplifting Athletes, a national non-profit that aligns college football programs with rare-disease causes, was launched in 2007 with Shirley serving as executive director.
Uplifting Athletes now has a network of more than 25 student-athlete-led chapters nationwide, which includes half of the schools in the Big Ten and Atlantic Coast Conferences and representation in every major college football conference. Each chapter adopts a specific rare disease. They?re also run by current college football players who, through their involvement with the program, learn valuable life lessons about leadership, management, giving back and impacting the lives of others.
The 2014 Penn State football team members serving as officers are President Ben Kline, Vice President Deron Thompson, Secretary Adam Breneman, Director of Marketing Jesse James, Compliance Manager Akeel Lynch and Director of Fundraising Brent Wilkerson. Additionally, Joe Marvin, Treasurer, and Bryce Wilson, Director of Operations, are former football team members and current Penn State students.
Today marks Penn State?s 12th Lift For Life fundraiser.
Since its inception, they?ve raised more than $825,000, and they?re hoping to break the $1 million mark this year for total funds raised for The Kidney Cancer Association. To learn more or make a donation, visit www.upliftingathletes.org.
Update: Congrats to the Penn State Uplifting Athletes crew on another record-setting weekend!
.@PSU_Uplifting #LiftforLife raised a record of $140,000 to benefit @KidneyCancer! http://t.co/b25E8ix1nM http://t.co/Zo3zCTjgZu

LOCAL SPORTS: Former Sheehan wrestler Nick Giulietti turns to MMA
chunn@nhregister.com
Nick Giulietti. (Submitted photo)
NEW HAVEN — Eminem's "'Till I Collapse" blasted through the Mohegan Sun Arena. All eyes from the crowd of 5,000-plus were on Nick Giulietti as he made his way to into the cage.
"That gave me an adrenaline rush I've never felt before," he said.
Giulietti proceeded to dominate his opponent, Jeremiah Soto, in his MMA debut on June 8. He won the three-round fight on the Reality Fighting card by a unanimous decision, dropping Soto quickly with a double-leg takedown and controlling the match the rest of the way.
The 21-year-old Giulietti hopes last month's win is the first of many.
A former Register All-Area selection, State Open champion and All-America honoree while wrestling at Sheehan High, Giulietti turned to MMA just three months ago. It's something, he says, that has caught his interest for some time, and his former high school coach and MMA fighter Blair Tugman helped jump start Giulietti's career.
He will finish his final season of collegiate wrestling at American International College next year. Giulietti wrestled at Anderson College, previously. He went 9-2 last season, before deciding to transfer so he can be closer to home.
He then plans on making the full-time switch from the mat to the octagon after college.
"He has potential to be someone you see on television," said Andrew Calandrelli, Giulietti's trainer at Ultimate MMA Training Center in North Haven and also a contracted fighter for Bellator. "He's one of the guys in the sport that can do something, make good money. He could be a star in the UFC or Bellator if he sticks with it."
Typically, first-time fighters do not make their debuts on such a big stage like the Mohegan Sun Arena. But Calandrelli saw talent so he set up the opportunity for Giulietti.
As an MMA fighter, Giulietti is still raw, but his ceiling appears to be quite high. The jiu-jitsu aspect, he says, has come somewhat naturally because it's similar to wrestling. The boxing transition has been more difficult.
Giulietti (6-0, 155) has quickly learned how to take a hit. He has good size for his weight class, which gives him an exceptional reach and helps with takedowns. He's deceptively strong, too.
Some of his training is interesting as well. Giulietti says he doesn't lift weights. He took a page out of the book of one of his favorite fighters, Fedor Emelianeko. He hits tires with a sledge hammer, flips tires up a hill and runs around a track with a 50-pound punching back on his back. Those are a few exercises he does to get in shape.
Amateur wrestlers have done well in the cage. Calandrelli says it's because wrestlers have the ability to control a fight. The list of success stories is quite long and the trend seems to be continuing to grow. Rashad Evans, UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones or lightweight champion Benson Henderson to name a few. There are some local ones, too, like former Law High star Nick Newell (recently signed a contract with the World Series of Fighting) or Old Saybrook's Jeff Haddad.

What is the element Nickel as on the Periodic Table?
A silvery, hard, ductile, ferromagnetic (easily magnetized) metallic element used in alloys, in corrosion-resistant surfaces and batteries, and for electroplating. Most nickel compounds are blue or green. Nickel occurs sparingly in nature in minerals such as pentlandite and niccolite. It is present in most meteorites. Nickel is used especially for mixing with other metals and for plating. Nickel is of the Iron group and it takes on a high polish. It is a fairly good conductor of heat and electricity. The Atomic Number of this element is 28 and the Element Symbol is Ni.
The name Nickel derives from an abbreviation of the German word 'kupfernickel' meaning "Devil's copper". In German 'Kupfer' means copper and 'Nickel' means devil. The German word 'Nickel' was a form of the name Nicholas, a term commonly associated with the devil which is why "Old Nick" is a familiar name for Satan. The metal was originally named by German miners who believed that the devil had changed or contaminated this strange ore, turning it into a less valuable and harder to work metal than valuable copper. The name was given by the chemist Axel von Cronstedt (1722-1765) who discovered the element.
Elements can be classified based on their physical states (States of Matter) e.g. gas, solid or liquid. This element is a solid. Nickel is classified as a "Transition Metal" which are located in Groups 3 - 12 of the Periodic Table. Elements classified as Transition Metals are generally described as ductile, malleable, and able to conduct electricity and heat. For additional facts and information refer to Nickel Properties. Nearly 75% of all the elements in the Periodic Table are classified as metals which are detailed in the List of Metals.
The use of nickel dates back as far as 3500 BC when it was used for coins and weapons. Nickel was discovered by Baron Axel Frederik Cronstedt in 1751. Axel von Cronstedt was a mining expert with the Bureau of Mines and attempted to extract copper from what he thought was a copper ore, but produced a silvery-white metal, instead of copper. He named the new metal nickel meaning "Devil's copper". Cronstedt also discovered the mineral tungsten, meaning heavy stone in Swedish.
Nickel is largely used as an alloy with other metals. Alloyed with copper it forms coin metal from which five-cent pieces are made, with copper and Zinc it forms German silver, and when added to steel in small quantities nickel steel is formed which is much superior to common steel for certain purposes. When deposited by electrolysis upon the surface of other metals such as iron, it forms a covering which will take a high polish and protects the metal from rust, nickel not being acted upon by moist air. Salts of nickel are usually green.
Check out Nickel on the Periodic Table which arranges each chemical element according to its atomic number, as based on the Periodic Law, so that chemical elements with similar properties are in the same column. Our Periodic Table is simple to use - just click on the symbol for Nickel as on the Periodic Table for additional information and for an instant comparison of the Atomic Weight, Melting Point, Boiling Point and Mass - G/cc with any other element. An invaluable source of facts and information as a Chemistry reference guide.
The Standardised Periodic Table in use today was agreed by the International Union of Pure Applied Chemistry, IUPAC, in 1985 and now recognises more periods and elements than Dimitri Mendeleev knew in his day in his day but still all fitting into his concept of the "Periodic Table" in which Nickel is just one element that can be found.
These articles contain facts and information relating to Nickel and each of the other elements including the Periodic Symbol, group, classification, properties and atomic number which is often referred to as the Periodic Table Number.

After Last Night's Game It's Hard to Imagine the Penguins Losing in the Stanley Cup Final to the Predators
If you're a Nashville native or just so happen to be a Predators fan, last night must've been brutal. The Predators did everything in their power in the first period to shoot themselves in the face and ruin their chances at winning game 1. Not only did they have an awful first period, they followed it up with a pretty dominant performance the rest of the way, and they still couldn't pull out the victory. Not only was it demoralizing, it was a wake up call, the Penguins didn't even play good, and they still won the game 5-3. If you're a Predators fan this has to worry you.
The P.K. Subban goal being overturned was complete horseshit. It was incredibly close, on calls like that I'll always say leave it as it was called on the ice, but they didn't, and as a result the Penguins gained momentum. Soon after on a 5 v 3 power play Evengi Malkin scored on a slap shot that just beat Pekka Rinne glove side. Penguins had a 1-0 lead and all the momentum in the world on their side. About a minute later Conor Sheary scored the biggest goal of his life and then another minute later the Penguins scored again when a shot deflected off a Predators defenseman into the net. Penguins led 3-0 after the first period.
I knew the Predators weren't going to give up. They came this far as an underdog they weren't going to shy away after the most unlucky period of hockey they've ever been apart of. They came out in the second period and dominanted the Penguins in all facets of the game. Seemed like the Predators were in the zone the entire period putting shots on net. Unfortunately, only one of them found the back of the net on a power play. Penguins lead 3-1 after the 2nd period, although it seemed like the Predators had finally settled down, and were going to take control of this series.
In the 3rd period, more of the same out of the Predators as they continued to get looks offensively. The Penguins had under 10 shots on net for the entire game halfway through the final period compared to the Predators who had close to 30. The Predators would score a short handed goal and a goal on the power play to tie the game up at 3 a piece with about 7 minutes left to go in the game. The momentum had completely shifted, the Predators looked as if they were the far superior team, and then the Penguins turned defense to offense, finishing off Nashville. Justin Schultz, crushed a Predators player into the boards, the puck scooted over to Matt Cullen, who then laid it off to Jake Guentzel, who sniped a goal where momma keeps the cookie jar. Penguins would then score on an empty net minutes later and went onto win 5-3.
Many of you might be thinking well it was a tight game, so the Predators definitely have a shot in this series. Well, the Penguins played pretty horrific last night, still they managed to get the job done. That's not a promising sign for the Predators whatsoever. I will say this, if it wasn't for that shit storm of bad breaks in the first period the Predators might have won and they did dominate the rest of the game besides for the last 5 minutes. Maybe there's more hope than I thought for the Preds. Although, I promise you the Penguins will never have less scoring opportunities than they did last night, so the Predators are definitely in some trouble regardless of well they play for stretches last night. History sure isn't on their side either, I believe somewhere around 75% of the time the game 1 winner wins the Stanley Cup. Looks like Pittsburgh is about to repeat. It was a nice story Nashville, but now it's time to go home Cinderella, you're drunk.

Thank you for a very informative editorial regarding the Women's March ("Minister of hate: Why can't national Women's March leaders quit him?," Jan. 17).
Many times the participants in these events are not aware of the people behind the scenes, working for or sponsoring them.
Anti-Semitism goes so far back in history.
Unfortunately, prejudice seems to be part of the human nature.
But as humane beings we need to address it in order to eliminate it.
Bravo for bringing it to light. I would now question the ulterior motives of these co-chairs.

Bryan Adams Room Service new album very soon
Bryan Adams will have a new studio album "Room Service" out on Sept. 21 internationally except in The States. This album will be followed by a 14-tunes acoustic album, "Stripped," which will include some acoustic demo versions of songs that appear on "Room Service."
Bryan Adams was in downtown Toronto (Canada) traffic on July 29 while shooting a video for his new single, "Open Road" (from the upcoming Bryan Adams album "Room Service"). You can listen to an audio sample of "Open Road" there (Windows Media Player file).
About "Room Service": "I had a big studio which used to travel with me, but you couldn't move it from place to place. I would need to rent a house for six months and work. This time, I got rid of that system and got it into two suitcases. It's the marvel of digital technology," Bryan Adams says.
"Stripped" and "Room Service" were recorded in hotels and backstage at concert venues in Europe last year.

This album, the first to include keyboardist Danny Louis and bassist Andy Hess along with founding members Warren Haynes and Matt Abts, is comprised completely of songs which have never been performed live. When asked to describe the album, Haynes says "It sounds like Gov't Mule, but it doesn't sound like anything we've already done. It has the same muscle and the same influences and character. But the fact is that it's a new band interpreting, and I'm writing songs for the sound of the new band."

Kenny Loggins and Julia Loggins are separated
According to this article of the Arizona Daily Star: At least Loggins shows up, Kenny Loggins has recently left Julia Loggins:
"The scruffy-haired singer - dressed in your basic blue jeans and white button-up shirt - also delved into his new album's repertoire, covering the upbeat title track, "It's About Time" and the song "I Miss Us" - a song Loggins said in a recent phone interview he could still manage to sing despite his separation from his wife, Julia Loggins, four months ago."
In another way, in celebration of Kenny's outstanding contributions to the world of music and honoring his 30-year career that has captivated and inspired his many fans, August has officially been declared Kenny Loggins Appreciation Month!

Chicago's songlist to be score for a new musical: Colour My World
Chicago popular group's songlist will be the basis for a new musical called "Colour My World," named after a hit Chicago ballad (and perennial prom theme) from 1971, a spokesman confirmed.
Richard Akins and his wife Janina are producing. Jeff Arch, a screenwriter whose credits include "Sleepless in Seattle," will write the book. Doug Katsaros is musical director. Akins hopes to open at a regional theatre in spring of summer 2005, then make another out-of-town stop before reaching Broadway.
The story will concern two friends and college fraternity brothers. One pursues a career in the entertainment business, the other becomes an artist, and each finds some disappointment in the fulfillment of their dreams.
More than 20 Chicago tunes will be used like "25 or 6 to 4," "Hard to Say I'm Sorry," "Beginnings" and "You're the Inspiration". Some songs will be used only as instrumentals.

By addressing fictional names head on, we risk going back to familiar, ordinary names intuitions and missing what is specific about them. I propose a different strategy. My view is grounded on fictional name sentence utterances and on indexed tokens of such sentences, where an index contains the fictional narrator and the time and location of the token. Using the framework of pluri-propositionalism (Perry 2012), I argue that the semantic relation of reference – 'x' refers to y - where 'x' is a name, rather than the notion of an object, is central to the debate on fictional names. I also contend that fictional names do not enter into that relation. Tokens of fictional names are individuated with the fictional index of the sentence they originate from. This allows for dispensing with a referent. Indexed fictional name sentence tokens have semantically determined truth conditions, yet they are not truth assessed given facts. In this respect, they have cognitive significance only, and no official or referential content. Indexed fictional name token of sentences are accepted as true, but they are not true.

Whew. Depending on how you view the current market you are either relieved, thrilled, or in pain. Regardless, I think it's safe to say a significant number of us are at least happy to see some price action and movement. And there is volume here in this move, which is very, very important.
The key psychological price of 5000 has been breached for the first time in 2018. This represents new lows for Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency market. In November, so far, Bitcoin has dropped significantly. From the open on November 1st of 6360 to the new 2018 low of 4863 made today, Bitcoin has dropped -23.54% this month. The majority of the drop has been over the past 5 trading days beginning with the 1100 point drop on the 14th. Thus far, we have seen Bitcoin lose -75.55% of its value over the past 337 days – a -15,028.99 point loss.. One of the underlying technical causes of the significant drop over the past 5 days has been the result of a low volume node, or a volume trough in Volume-At-Price analysis (VAP). VAP differs from normal volume analysis in that VAP looks at volume traded at a particular price. When prices moved below the 6000 value area, it entered into a low volume node and promptly traded lower and faster. The low volume node of 5900 – 5300 accounts for less than half of the volume traded at the VAP price node of 6550 – 5900. The move lower was exacerbated by the presence of the next volume node below: the 5300 – 4600 node. That particular node represents even less volume than the 5900 – 5300. In fact, when looking at the entire volume profile beginning with April of 2017, the 5300 – 4600 node is the lowest volume node over the past 600 trading days. In VAP, traders look for high volume nodes and low volume nodes. High volume nodes, such as the 6500 – 6000 node represent areas of strong support and resistance because they represent significant volumes of participation. Traders also look for low volume nodes, which represent areas that have not experienced significant participation. The behavior of price action, when price enters into low volume nodes, is of particular interest to traders because those zones act as a kind of 'vaccuum'. It is very common to observe price very swiftly and rapidly move through low volume nodes. I've discussed this scenario as recently as a couple weeks ago, indicating that a swift move out of consolidation into the 4800 – 4500 zone would be a likely scenario to drive prices higher. Volume has certainly come back into Bitcoin. The volume from Sunday to Monday has thus far generated almost half of the entire prior week's volume and, with the exception of last week, is higher than the past 4 weeks. Volume precedes price as they say.

BROCKVILLE HOSTS A "SCOTLAND V ENGLAND" GAME FOR LOCAL BOY
George Young was in the eyes of many older supporters the best- ever Rangers player and Scotland captain. Why then did it take former England manager Don Revie to organise a Testimonial Match for George at Brockville?
The amazing story starts in Grangemouth in the 1940s. George went to Dundas School and the local legend is that he could head a tennis ball the length of the school playground. Having attended the school myself, I can vouch for the fact that it was quite a feat. George was quite a star in the Dundas team and aged only 9, he was played at outside right. His performances soon earned him wider recognition and by the time he was 14, he was developing rapidly and became an automatic choice at left-back for the Falkirk and District Schools team. In season 1937/37, he won three Schoolboy caps against England, Ireland and Wales and was again outstanding. It was a local man, the Old Town blacksmith Tom Robertson, who had seen the potential in George and realised the ability of such a versatile two-footed defender and informed Rangers of the rising star in the town. George's dad was a goods guard based at Fouldubs Junction and Tom arranged for the pair to go through to Ibrox and meet the famous Mr Struth. George recalled the day, "I recall that nobody could sign professional forms unless they were 17. My dad and Mr Struth talked a little then I signed. The paperwork went straight into Mr Struth's office safe."
George was one of four Grangemouth players to sign for Rangers that season." Jimmy Kennedy, John Galloway, Jimmy Fiddes, and I made up the quartet from the town. I was very proud that I was their youngest signing that season." George left school and worked for a short while in Brownlees sawmill and then took up the offer of an engineering apprenticeship with the Grangemouth Dockyard. He played Junior Football with Grange Rovers and trained at Brockville when ex-Ranger Tully Craig was the manager. It was not uncommon for players from other clubs to use the facilities on offer at their local clubs and George was quick to acknowledge the help and advice he received in those days at Brockville." Training nights with Falkirk brought me into contact with great players like Charlie Napier, Golden Miller, Jerry Dawson, Archie Miller, and Kenny Dawson. It was in 1941 that George was called back to Ibrox to sign professional forms and was offered a contract which paid him £2 per game he played. Still only aged 19, he soon established himself in a star-studded Rangers side and he was more than able to hold his place alongside the likes of Jerry Dawson, Scott Symon, Tiger Shaw, Sammy Cox, Willie Waddell and the other Ibrox greats. He played in Wartime International games against England, but his first International experiences could have put him off. England won 4-0 at Hampden and 8-0 at Maine Road, Manchester. At Manchester he faced the formidable Tommy Lawton and admitted that he was the hardest opponent he had faced so far.
By 1948, George was the captain of Scotland- an honour he held until he retired in 1957. He had led his country before he became club captain with Rangers. That honour was given to him in 1950 and he regarded this as the highlight of his career, a great honour which made him feel incredibly proud. Players recalled how George acted as manager and coach as well as captain of Scotland. After the selection committee had wished the team all the best, George would lock the door and star his team talks. It was inspirational and he asked his playing colleagues for their input too. Alex Parker and Lawrie Reilly are just two former International colleagues who spoke highly of his influence as player and captain.
His career statistics cannot do justice to a remarkable player. 768 league appearances for Rangers, 6 League winners medals,4 Scottish Cup winners' medals, 2 League Cup winners medals and 53 Scotland caps, 48 of them as captain. He was a Rangers Icon, turning down offers from Scottish and English clubs to stay with Rangers. He was highly respected by his opponents too. Tom Finney described as being like a giant octopus. "You would beat him seven times in one move, and though you were past him, then that eighth leg would come out to reclaim the ball." Stanley Matthews too, rated him highly. How then did Brockville stage this Testimonial Match for a Rangers and Scotland Legend?
Rangers refused to stage the game because they thought it would create a precedent to honour FORMER players. It had been hoped that Rangers would play a London Select to honour George, but while the chairman John Paton was reportedly sympathetic, the other directors refused permission. It fell to Don Revie, who had become a personal friend, to head the testimonial committee, which included Sir Hugh Fraser and the Reverend James Currie. Retrospective Testimonials were new in Scotland, but not uncommon in England where players like Wilf Mannion and Tommy Lawton had been honoured several years after retiring. George had fallen on hard times and at that time lived in a two-bedroom council house in Grangemouth, was suffering from poor health and was on unemployment benefits. He had several business ventures which had ended badly, notably the Tillietudlum Hotel, a Glasgow coffee bar, and a double- glazing company. George was perhaps too much of a nice bloke, too trusting and as his wife Zena once said, "too much of a soft touch."
Sunday May 11th, 1986 At Brockville Park
GEORGE YOUNG SELECT 4-0 DON REVIE SELECT
Brockville was the place for autograph hunters when an array of stars played in this special match to honour the career of Rangers and Scotland legend George Young. Lawrie McMenemy was a special guest and he brought several of his Sunderland first team squad up to Falkirk as well as Joe Jordan from Southampton. Kevin Keegan, then living in Spain, came out of retirement to play in the match. The home side played in a Scotland kit and were too strong for the Revie side, who contained a few veterans. Respect was due to Kevin Keegan who had undergone knee surgery only seven weeks previously and hadn't played competitive football for over a year. He played for the full 90 minutes and showed that he hadn't lost any of his old enthusiasm for the game.
The George Young team were two goals ahead within the opening twenty minutes through BRIAN McCLAIR and STEVE COWAN. McClair's goal came after a great pass from Robert Connor of Dundee, while Cowan was first to react after a McClair drive came back off a post. The "home" side were well on top and it was no surprise when BRIAN McCLAIR added a third goal just before half-time.
BRIAN McCLAIR completed the scoring late in the second half when he fired home from a difficult angle for the best goal of the game. George Watson had a good game in goals and made some difficult saves, the best of which was from a Keegan penalty with the score at 3-0. Alan Irvine came on in the second half and looked comfortable in such exalted company. He made one characteristic surging run which almost ended in a goal and it raised the biggest cheer of the day.
One of the most unusual sights of the day was Brian Kemp of Falkirk coming on as a substitute for Ian Wallace in the second half- and in an England top. He almost got on the scoresheet when he headed a cross from Joe Jordan over the bar with keeper Duncan helpless. It was quite a day and the money raised would be added to that gathered at a Testimonial Dinner where Jackie Charlton had been the star attraction.
GEORGE YOUNG SELECT: Watson (Falkirk), McGrain (Celtic), Connor (Dundee), McLeod (Celtic), Burns (Celtic), Connor (Dundee), Chisholm (Hibs), Bell (Rangers), Fleck (Rangers), McClair (Celtic), Cowan (Hibs)
Subs. Irvine (Falkirk), Chalmers (Celtic)
DON REVIE SELECT: Duncan, Bennett, F. Gray, Kennedy, Proctor, Hetzke, Elliott, Gates (all Sunderland) Jordan (Southampton), Wallace (Sunderland) Keegan (unattached)
Subs. Kemp (Falkirk)
George Young was a real legend of the game and it was quite sad to see him in his later years. His playing career was almost unrivalled, and he well deserves his place in the Scottish Football Hall of Fame. His modesty was best summed up with a quote from 1986." I turned them all down and it didn't take me long to say no. Glasgow Rangers was always going to be the only club for me. I am just so grateful that I had the chance to be part of them." The Rangers refusal to sanction his Testimonial obviously hurt him, but he took it in his stride." They have changed the stands at Ibrox, and they have changed the faces there, too. In my career, I won some, and I lost some. It looks like I have lost this one." It was a sad chapter in the club's history and many Rangers fans were angry and embarrassed at the refusal.

Horse Racing at Flamboro Downs, 19+ in the Grandstand
On September 2, 2019 posted by Adalene Lucas in Blog, Casino Games, Gambling Laws, Horse Racing, Latest News, Slot Machines, Specialty Betting No Comments
Ontario horse racing track to impose age restriction on grandstand viewers.
For decades, a day at the races has been enjoyed as a bonding experience between young and old. Fathers and grandfathers have been taking their sons to the track since the dawn of horse racing. Entire families make a day of it. Here in Canada, especially, it's not much different than parents in the US taking their children to a baseball game – a sport universally known as America's favorite pastime.
Such family experiences are not soon – if ever – forgotten. I still remember by grandfather telling me about his first trip to the track with his grandfather. That's five generations of racing fans, born and bred to appreciate the sport. But as some seem to be suggesting, a childhood trip to the track is not the foundation of a problem gambler to come.
Alas, it would seem such fears are gripping the executives at Great Canadian Gaming (GCG), owner of Flamboro Downs in Hamilton, ON, who have recently expanded the gaming offering at this location to include over 800 slot machines. Thus, the company decided it would be best to restrict the track's grandstand from the young and impressionable minds of those under 19 years of age.
Limiting entry to 19+ in the casino makes absolute sense, but should children really be cut off from the grandstand at the track? The family bonding issue is a big one, but it's not the only one according to community outcry.
Occupational Hazard for Ontario Horse Racing Tracks
How many children will ever grow up taking an interest in the horse racing industry if they are not allowed to experience events first hand before the age of 19? the industry employs thousands upon thousands of people. From the upper echelon Horse owners and trainers, to the announcers and grandstaff ushers, right down to the stable workers and grooms.
Nathan Bain is a perfect example of how this new rule, to be instated as of tomorrow, September 3, 2019, will negatively effect the industry as a whole. At 17 years old, Nathan is a hugely respected Youth Member of the Canadian Chapter of the United States Harness Writers. Nathan Bain called his first race at Flamboro Downs when was just 15, and has also worked at Ontario's Dresden and Leamington Raceways. It's hard for him to imagine that twenty four hours from now, he won't even be allowed to enter the main building.
"Very disappointed to the see that anyone under the age of 19 is not allowed to enter the grandstand or clubhouse at Flamboro Downs as of September 3rd.," said Bain in one of the first Tweets responding to the announcement late last month. "We should be engaging youth in this sport not turning them away and that's coming from a youth!"
Another follower of the discussion, going by the nickname Trotter Turk, was so perturbed that he's sworn off business at Flamboro Downs forever more in this response:
"Absolutely sickening. You cannot grow the sport without youth! I can tell you this, they just lost a long-time customer. I will never support a situation like this. Bye bye Flamboro."
Someone is Listening, but is it Too Little, Too Late?
The construction of the new slots parlour at Flamboro Downs is already complete. The new casino entrance was built so that you must traverse the slots floor in order to access the grandstand. The purpose was, quite obviously, to promote the slot machines to their racing fans. The end result,m however, is what race fans are predicting will be the death of Flamboro's raceway.
Based on this, it would certainly seem that negotiations are closed on the matter. Provincial regulations will not permit minors to enter the casino, even if it's to get to the grandstand. GCG could go back and construct a separate entrance for the track, but that would defeat their money-hungry purpose of promoting slot machines by forcing racing fans to see their flashing lights, hear their ceaseless chimes.
Could there be a glimmer of hope remaining?
Fans say no, but whoever manages the Flamboro Facebook account hasn't given up yet. In response to the 100+ negative replies to the announcement, Flamboro Downs said:
"Many have shared frustrations and concerns about the recent announcement. Please know that all constructive feedback is being shared with management."
None were exactly thrilled by that comment, nor the promise of efforts to resolve the issue that appeared on Facebook three days later.
"We know that families enjoy horse racing together. As part of our ongoing commitment to live racing at Flamboro Downs, we continue to explore ways to ensure the trackside racing experience remains welcoming to minors, while operating within the overall realities of a regulated gaming environment intended for adults."
More details are said to come, but with the age restriction going into effect at the Ontario horse racing track tomorrow, it may just be too little, too late, for the countless fans that are threatening to boycott the raceway.


Specifically, how did he think the media would react to the event — really an indictment of the breathless, 24-hour cable news cycle.
"I just don't care," he said bluntly.
This event really had only one unifying message — tone it down — but plenty of pressure to give it meaning.There was ample opportunity, much of it coming from the very media that Stewart routinely skewers: It was the Democrats' last-ditch effort for midterm momentum. It was the cry of liberals disappointed in President Obama. It was the left's answer to the Tea Party. A host of orgs, from those in favor of legalizing marijuana to those opposed to further engagement in Afghanistan, sought to seize the moment via peaceful demonstrations parading down the crowded streets around the Mall.
Stewart, however, didn't display anything close to a desire to lead or hop on a movement. He didn't even take the bait when a reporter asked him whether people should vote.
"I think people should do whatever moves them," Stewart said.
Blatant appeals for candidates were few, and they didn't stand a chance of drawing attention.
"I was hoping to show that spiders are dangerous, and that they are the only thing I fear," she deadpanned.
Mike Harshman said he is a fan of Colbert's in particular. He also wanted to go to Glenn Beck's Rally to Restore Honor, but could not make it that Saturday in August. That is not to say he is a fan of Beck's, too. He just wanted to see what it was all about.
Among the swarm, there seemed to be few moments of mass movement, i.e. powerful chants or hymns. Parts of the crowd tried to stir shouts of "USA! USA! USA!," but they seemed to go nowhere. Near the stage, smatterings of rallygoers started to dance, but it didn't create a fever.
There were certainly cheers and a few shouts for Stewart and Colbert and wild applause for some of their surprise musical guests, such as Yusuf Islam, the former Cat Stevens, and the O'Jays, but nothing that would make the Park Police nervous.
After it ended, spontaneous parades and protests broke out along the pedestrian-choked streets well into D.C.'s downtown. But thousands also stood for some time along the Mall, not ready to leave. Some were moved by what was said and done, but many also were doing what any tourist would do: Deciding what to do next.
She was a bit disappointed that they couldn't get close enough to speakers on the Mall to drown out the noise of people chattering near them, but she was pleased. "I came for passion. Determination. Sanity," said Copeland, a paralegal from Norman.
Saturday night on the Metro, filling up with costumed Halloween partygoers, one college-age man said he tried to get to the rally but just couldn't get close enough to hear. He finally went to a bar to watch it unfold on TV. "I still don't know what that was all about," he said.

Their wolf-like appearance, endurance at work, strong health, intelligence and ability to survive under conditions of minimal care make them particularly attractive for many hunters dog lovers who value primitive dogs. To preserve valuable wild qualities of Russian Laikas, they should be kept the natural way. Laikas of the breeding stock must be diligently evaluated for the hunting ability and selected for traits indicating a potential survivor under harsh natural conditions.

Q: Reorder columns in a list of .csv files I have all of my .csv files in one folder. Each file contains the same columns, however, some of the files vary in the order (e.g., File 1 could have COLUMN A, COLUMN B, COLUMN C as the first three columns and File 2 could have COLUMN A, COLUMN C, COLUMN B as the first three columns). I could manually reorder each .csv file but I will have over 200 .csv files by the time I am finished and there are 142 columns in each .csv file.
Here is the code for what I have so far:
fileList <- list.files(path = "/path/to/folder/here",
                       recursive = TRUE,
                       pattern = "\\.csv$",
                       full.names = TRUE)

files <- readr::read_csv(fileList, show_col_types = FALSE)

This is the error I get:
Error: Files must have consistent column names:
* File 1 column 64 is: mrtRespPrac.rt
* File 2 column 64 is: mrtRespPrac.started

I get what the error is telling me so I am wondering if there is a way to reorder the columns in the files stored in fileList so that they are the exact same order and then run the read_csv line of code. I've tried all kinds of Googling but can't find any specific code to do what I want.

A: Try
alldat <- lapply(fileList, read_csv, show_col_types = FALSE)
nms <- names(alldat[[1]])
combined <- do.call(rbind, lapply(alldat, subset, select = nms))
