Reel Rhino Review - ROBIN HOOD
This is not the review for Gladiator. This movie is not Gladiator. In the words of Lt. Col. James "Rhodey" Rhodes: "It's me, get over it." Such is the same here. This is Russell Crowe...Robin Hood. This is not Russell Crowe...Gladiator. Get over it.
Douglas Fairbanks, Errol Flynn, Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, Brian Bedford (in voice only), and Cary Elwes have all donned the tights. Now it's is time for Maximus to take his shot. Russell Crowe skips the tights and goes for more period-proper attire. A battle robe, a cape (very conservatively used by these men of the hood), and a head to toe number that comes off as Carhartt-chic.
Costuming aside, Robin Hood is a well told tale of Robin Hood the man, before he became Robin Hood the legend. Why are people slighting this effort because it stars and is directed by the duo who brought us GLADIATOR. Gladiator was a great film! ROBIN HOOD is an enjoyable film.
Toe to toe, Gladiator wins every time. It is a better story, more original, and just makes me feel warm and fuzzy each time I hear Crowe spout to Commodus:
"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."
Which is only slightly better than and also one of my favorites to: "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
Well with Robin Hood, we get something as noble as the Gladiator line, and perhaps a bit easier to remember (no spoiler as Crowe reads it in the trailer): "Rise, and Rise Again; Until Lambs Become Lions"
The primary difference between this and Gladiator deals directly with the hero's journey. In Gladiator, Maximus was a hero from the word go. He was a battle-tested, revered General who fought for Ceasar and won. In Robin Hood, Robin Longstride is but a noble archer, in the King's conquering army. It could be argued that he is a leader, but when he gives the King a bit of lip, he ends up bound in the stockade. Not quite the hero's introduction one would expect. He serves King Richard the Lionheart with respect, but given the circumstances that develop, he quickly decides that a solo journey is the best route to a happy life.
I say a solo journey, but of course along for the ride are his Merry Men, played perfectly by Kevin Durand, Scott Grimes, and Alan O'Doyle. I don't know about you, but even with a believable accent, Grimes will always be Sgt. Donald Malarkey from BAND OF BROTHERS. Durand has the most character development, and even it is a little light for regular merry man LITTLE JOHN. Durand is a bulky cat. He has had a number of recognizable roles, most notably and recently as Martin Kearney on Lost.
Friar Tuck is personified perfectly in Mark Addy and he has a nice story line through the flick. He is appropriately underused as the tone of the film does its best to remain more solemn than comedic, although there are a few chuckle-moments.
The only question mark of a character was William Hurt. He really serves no purpose and I think writing out his part would have sliced the flick down from 2 hrs 20 mins to a more enjoyable stretch. Perhaps they are building his character for the sequel, which has certainly been set up here.
Cate Blanchett and Max Von Sydow play daughter (Maid Marion) and father (Sir Walter Locksley) and their dynamic is excellent. Early in the film, Maid Marion's, husband is killed in battle and Robin Longstride having sworn a blood oath, is the bearer of the news and to return the sword of the son to the father. Von Sydow is the acting tour de force of this effort, playing the elder Locksley as well as any role in his recent past. Von Sydow is to Robin Hood as Richard Harris (R.I.P.) was to Gladiator. Yeah, I know...if it isn't like Gladiator, why keep drawing the damn conclusion!
Baddies are afoot including a great run by Mark Strong as a marauding Frenchman and Oscar Issac as Prince John. Two things...is Mark Strong the official bad guy of all movies...Blackwood in Sherlock; Kick-Ass, etc...Also, is he the bargain bin version of Andy Garcia? Actually, I really like Strong's performances in all of these flicks, but the first time I realized that was seeing him (RocknRolla), I really thought he was Andy Garcia!
This is a solid flick and it is intended to be watched in the theater. Ridley Scott is truly a great director of our day and he creates beautiful worlds. I don't know that there is any Oscar-bait here, minus a best-supporting nod, perhaps, but all of the primaries are in top form and it makes for an easy to enjoy few hours.
I have a music-crush on a local Kansas City band called The Elders, who play traditional Arse-kicking Irish rock. Some of the tunes belted out by the Merry Men remind me of the musical sounds of the Elders, which was a bonus for me.
My biggest complaint comes when considering the rating. This is a PG-13 offering and I think a slight increase in the colorful words department and perhaps some on-screen bloodshed would have greatly added to the overall enjoyment. I don't need to see blood and guts or hear f-bombs a plenty to love a movie. But again, holding this candle up against Gladiator makes it impossible not to notice. CASH is the motivator for a PG-13 and the Big Hollywood Machine keeps on a rollin'.
All in all...a solid 3.5 horns out of 5 from the Reel Rhino.
Tune in next week and I will pick apart MacGruber, which until recently had a tomatometer rating of 100%. if not for the recent addition of Top Critic, The Hollywood Reporter's John Defore's rotten rating. Defore's rotten rating has dropped the score to 89% as of this writing, which I think sadly, will be the first of many drops in the score for this SNL small screen to big screen jump. But we shall see!!!

Direct mail has never been easier. imagine a service, where, using your artwork and a customer address list, you can target your database, with a minimum order of 25 units - and the promotion will land at their letter box within 2/4 days. With costs just a few pennies shy of the cost of a 2nd class stamp.
This all inclusive service is just a couple of clicks away. Not sure on the power of direct mail - ask us and we'll send you a sample.
This is very simple. Working with you to produce suitable artwork, we will prepare a 'call to action' front and some carefully worded text for the reverse. You supply your customer database (Name, Address1, Address2 etc) - we will print and merge the data, and pop it in the post for you, so it arrives just a couple of days later, on your clients doorstep.
A perfect tool, as a reminder to your loyal customer, that you want their business.
Get in touch and we'll send you a sample through the post. You can't beat the power for carefully targeted direct mail.
Request a sample of a 'Direct to Letterbox' postcard through the post.
A hotel holds a database of 2300 addresses of guests who have previously stayed a the hotel. Direct Mail to Letterbox can be used to target these previous customers, offering them a discount if they come to stay during a quite period in the coming year.
You may hold many thousands of addresses in your customer database. Why not filter off your top 250 and target a Direct Mail campaign for these customers specifically. Or choose customers who haven't ordered in the last 12 months, with a call to action which will make them come back to you.
You may have something inhouse which can print off a standard service reminder letter. All good and well, but don't you wish you could make the mailing, more on brand. Our Direct Mail to Letterbox can work with your data, to make this possible. All we would need, is a trigger date within your customer export.
While many sources claim that print is dying, the numbers show it's more alive than ever. Print methods are changing and improving, and are actually more 'green' at times than digital methods.
People like paper. Recieving mail is exciting and something we're more likely to give attention to. A survey conducted by Royal Mail determined that our mood will improve by up to 29% if exposed to a positive tactile feeling.
Recent studies have shown that print advertising is still effective. We're still reading mail and acting on what we read/see by visiting websites, making purchases, picking up the phone or sharing with friends.
PAF - Postcode Address File - What's that all about?
PAF is the most accurate UK address data there is. All your addresses will be verified by the PAF.
Business names change, large houses become apartments and flats, new properties are built every day.
There are more than 3000 address changes each week, and you need to know you're only paying for what gets delivered, so you will only pay for the address data verified by PAF. Or give you the opportunity to fix them (if you want to go ahead and delivery to non-verified addresses, you can do, but the unit cost will be increased for those addresses).
Utilising the PAF verification is how we are able to offer these incredible prices. Read more about PAF from Royal Mail.
We are currently testing the implimentation of 'Mail Mark' within the address block printed on the mail. The 'Mail Mark' functionality will enable us to give you a delivery report, so you can scan a barcode, and see the progress of your delivery. When it arrives at the sorting office, when it's out for delivery. Enabling you to get organised, gear up your staff for when your project lands in the letterbox.
The potential for this information is massive. By knowing exactly when the mail arrives, you could also contact the recipient, just at the right time to triangulate your promotion.

Irkab-Damu je bil kralj prvega Eblaitskega kraljestva, ki je vladal okoli leta 2340 pr. n. št. Med njegovo vladavino je Ebla postal dominantna sila v Levantu.

Med njegovim vladanjem je začel pomembno vlogo v notranjih zadevah in vojski dobivati vezir. V tem času je imela Ebla dobre diplomatske odnose z okoliškimi kraljestvi.

Vladanje
Irkab-Damu je nasledil kralja Igriš-Halama, ki je bil šibek vladar in je moral plačevati davek Mariju, s katerim je bil v dolgoletni vojni. Irkab-Damu je svojo vladavino začel s sklenitvijo mirovnega in trgovskega sporazuma z Abarsalom, ki je bil verjetno nekje ob Evfratu vzhodno od Eble. Sporazum je eden od prvih tovrstnih sporazumov v zgodovini.

V prvih letih vladanja je tudi Irkab-Damu plačeval davek Mariju. V Ebli so odkrili pismo Enna-Dagana Marijskega, ki ga je marijski monarh izrabljal za orodje za vsiljevanje svoje nadoblasti. V pismu je zgodovinska pripoved o zmagah Ena-Daganovih predhodnikov nad Eblo.

Širjenje kraljestva
Irkab-Damu je sprožil uspešno protiofenzivo proti Mariju in prenehal plačevati davek. Meje Eble je razširil do njenega največjega obsega in obvladoval ozemlje, ki je obsegalo skoraj polovico sodobne Sirije. Polovica ozemlja  je bila pod njegovo neposredno oblastjo in upravo njegovih guvernerjev, v drugi polovici pa so vladali njegovi vazali, ki so plačevali davek in mu dajali vojaško podporo.  Tablica iz Eble omenja eblaitsko zmago nad Nagarjem, verjetno iz obdobja Irkab-Damujeve vladavine. Na isti tablici je omenjen tudi sporazum z Ena-Daganom. Irkab-Damu je za prvega vezirja Eble imenoval Arrukuma, ki je ostal na tem položaju pet let. Njegov sin Ruzi-Malik se je poročil s kraljevo hčerko, princeso Iti-Mut.

Pomemben del Irkab-Damujeve politike je bila diplomacija. Na glinasti tablici iz arhiva Eble je kopija diplomatskega sporočila, poslanega iz Eble kralju Ziziju Hamazijskemu. Kralju so razen pisma poslali tudi veliko količino lesa in ga pozdravljali kot brata. Od njega so zahtevali, da Ebli v zameno pošlje svoje najemnike. V kraljevi palači so odkrili tudi darila iz Egipta, kar kaže na daljnosežne eblaitske diplomatske odnose.

Družina in nasledstvo
Irkab-Damu je bil sin kralja Igriš-Halama in njegove kraljice Kesdut. Vladal je enajst let. V petem letu vladanja se je poročil z Disigu. V zadnjih dveh letih vladanja se se je zelo okrepil položaj vezirja Ibriuma, ki je med vladanjem Irkab-Damujevega sina in naslednika Isar-Damuja postal najmočnejši mož v državi.

Trace Adkins is switching gears from music to film with his role in the new film, I Can Only Imagine. Based on the story of MercyMe frontman Bart Millard, Adkins plays Scott Brickell, manger to the Christian music group.
The film tells the story of MercyMe's famous hit, "I Can Only Imagine," which was inspired by the death of Millard's father when he was 18 and the complicated relationship they shared when he was growing up. Adkins' character makes a brief appearance in the trailer for the film, proving to be a faithful support system for Millard, encouraging him to turn his pain into a song.
Brickell has been managing MercyMe since 2001 under his company, BrickHouse Entertainment. The film is directed by Andrew Erwin and stars Dennis Quaid as Millard's father Arthur, while Cloris Leachman plays his grandmother.
"I Can Only Imagine" became an instant success for the band after its release in 2001, not only making a big impact on Christian radio, but also crossing over into mainstream success, peaking at No. 5 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. The track was awarded Song of the Year at the 2002 Dove Awards, where Millard also won Songwriter of the Year. The groundbreaking song is also the only Christian single to be certified double platinum, with sales of more than two million.
Adkins is no stranger to the big screen, appearing in several films over the past 30 years including The Lincoln Lawyer, Deepwater Horizon and Mom's Night Out, the latter of which was also directed by Erwin. I Can Only Imagine opened in theaters on Friday (March 16).

The Gettysburg Ponies were a minor league baseball team based in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. From 1915 to 1917, Gettysburg teams played exclusively as members of the Class D level Blue Ridge League, beginning play in 1915 as the Gettysburg "Patriots." Gettysburg hosted minor league home games at Nixon Field

History
In 1915, minor league baseball play in Gettysburg began, as the Gettysburg Patriots became as charter members of the six-team, Class D level Blue Ridge League. The Chambersburg Maroons, Frederick Hustlers, Hagerstown Blues, Hanover Hornets and Martinsburg Champs joined Gettysburg in beginning league play on May 27, 1915.

In their first game, the opening game to begin the 1915 season, Gettysburg defeated the Hanover Hornets 5–0 at Hanover.

On June 8, 1915, Gettysburg was defeated by the Martinsburg Champions 9–8 in a game at Willow Lane Park in Hagerstown, Maryland.

The 1915 Gettysburg Patriots ended their first Blue Ridge League season in fifth place. The Patriots ended the season with a record of 28–48, playing the season under manager Ira Plane. Gettysburg finished 25.0 games behind the first place Frederick Hustlers in the final standings, as the league held no playoffs.

Hosting home games at Nixon Field on the campus of Gettysburg College had some negative ramifications. Because of the location of the ballpark, fans could easily watch the game from nearby streets, avoiding having to pay admission. Also, automobiles that parked alongside the ballpark, which had no outfield fence, were a hazard to players chasing down fly balls. Baseballs in play also rolled underneath vehicles parked at the corners of the outfield.

Before the 1916 season began, the club needed to resolve the fact that the team was known by two names. Their official Blue Ridge League name was the Gettysburg Patriots, but local newspapers called them the "Braves." Before the 1916 season began, a meeting was held were stockholders of the Patriots elected new directors and announced that 55 shares of stock in the team had sold at $20 per share to provide revenue for the team.

A new nickname was given to the 1916 team, as reported in the Frederick Post: "In order to do away with the confusion caused by giving the two different names, the Patriots and the Braves, a compromise has been reached and the Gettysburg team will be known in the future as Plank's Ponies." Plank referred to manager Ira Plank, who was the brother of Baseball Hall of Fame member Eddie Plank.

Continuing play in the 1916 Blue Ridge League, the  Gettysburg "Ponies",  finished last in the standings. The Ponies ended the Blue Ridge League season in sixth place. Gettysburg ended the 1916 season with a record of 35–56, playing under returning manager Ira Plank and finished 17.0 games behind the first place Chambersburg Maroons.

Due to financial and salary concerns, some Ponies players were creative in trying to earn extra money. Jimmy Dykes reported later that some of the players on the Gettysburg team traveled to some of the other league clubs to try and play under an alias to earn additional some money. Their efforts failed when they were recognized by one of the opposing managers. This issued was called to the attention of league president J. Vincent Jamison in late July, 1916. Jamison took the franchise away from Gettysburg and began talking with Piedmont, West Virginia and York, Pennsylvania, representatives about taking the team. Local Gettysburg business leaders organized and collected the minimum funds to keep the club running for the remainder of the season. After a guarantee to the league that the funds were available, Jamison agreed to return the club back to Gettysburg a week later.

In their final season of play, the 1917 Gettysburg Ponies placed third in the Blue Ridge League final standings. Gettysburg ended the season with a record of 48–46, playing under managers Joe Ward and John Mumford. The Ponies finished 11.5 games behind the first place Hagerstown Terriers in the final standings.

The Gettysburg and Hanover teams did not return to the 1918 Blue Ridge League, as the league reduced from six teams to four teams while continuing play during World War I and facing challenges due to the Spanish flu epidemic. The league folded during the 1918 season. Gettysburg has not hosted another minor league team.

The ballpark
From 1915 to 1917 the Gettysburg minor league teams played home games at Nixon Field. The ballpark had no outfield fences and was plagued by automobiles parked near the dianond interfering with live baseballs and providing seating for fans wishing to avoid paying admission. Nixon Field was located at North Washington Street & East Stevens Street on the campus of Gettysburg College.

Review too long to read Well you only need to read this summary where I give Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report an overall score. My goal has been to make use of stats to produce a totally neutral review that helps to give a clear idea of whether or not you should purchase this product. I looked at the sales figures, the refund rate and the authority of the product's website to set up a general idea of reliability. It's a computer algorithm, yes, but it should be a fantastic help nonetheless. So, the final score is 70.33/100 – a fantastic score!.
It is time for yet another fine runningteacherman.com review. At this blog I are concerned about my audience and assisting you to make a good buying choice. I manage this, principally, by looking at sales figures but I also ensure that each and every product on this site has a 60 day cash back guarantee. So strap yourselves in and let's get started! Oh, it nearly slipped my mind. I offer freebies for people who purchase via my link. You can read about all of that here. To discover how the site is funded you can click here – my top priority is my readers and I want everything to be transparent. Now that you have finished doing that, we can begin.
First, an admission. I tend to be affected by the popularity of products. In the event that I see everyone is purchasing something I often go along for the ride. My reasoning? Well, if everyone wants it, it must be good quality, right? Naturally, that's not often true but product sales can be a good proof of quality. Luckily for you, I actually have some sales information for Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report. First, I have a thing called Gravity which comes directly from the payment processor. It offers us a rough proof of sales volume. Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report has a gravity of 16.75, which is actually an above average level and gets runningteacherman.com seal of approval. Now, this gravity figure might not mean much to you. Hence, dear readers, I've evaluated the gravities of every product on this web site and produced a sales rank! A rate of 100 means it's the most popular product here … and all the way down to 1 with the worst seller. So what about Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report? Well, it gets a sales rank of 96.35, which places it at the top of the class – one thing I would feel safe advising to my loyal readers at runningteacherman.com.
Of course, I opt to give my readers more than just sales stats. You want to know about a product's quality. Unfortunately, my time restrictions (and bank balance!) don't make it possible for me to try every product personally. So I use another stat – the refund rate.This stat comes directly from the payment processor, when it was available for a brief time. Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report scores 3 /5 which is the average score and usually means we either don't have any refund data or the refund amount is at a suitable level – should be OK to proceed here.
The Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report Web-page – what does it tell us?
All right, what else can I say to you? Well, why don't we take a look at the domain that this product is sold from (www2.vinaudit.com)? There are a few stats available that will provide us witha better idea about how effective the product is. Firstly, we know the site has 76500 pages – the idea is that the more pages it has, the older and more reliable it is. So, in this case, 76500 is really a lot and indicates that I'm inclined to recommend it to you dear readers. But, obviously, you couldn't just judge a website by the number of pages it has. They could all be useless! Instead, let's learn something from Google's book and have a look at the amount of other sites that are linking in to this one. Lots of links from quality sites signifies that this one is bound to be quality too. So www2.vinaudit.com has 0 backlinks with an authority score of 1/100, which means it hasn't received much approval from other sites yet (and hence not from me either).
I've hunted high and low and produced a list of all the other products this supplier is selling, and also any specials they have on at this time. Let's have a look… So, it seems Complete VinAudit Vehicle History Report has no special product(s) on sale.
And what about any other products? No there aren't any for www2.vinaudit.com.

Evil Among Us
by Ken Driggs
Twenty-Two
[p.134] Kleasen wanted new lawyers who would not bring up embarrassing issues such as his mental fitness. He wanted a defense conducted on his terms.
One day, while Kleasen was visiting with Pentecostal friends in the Travis County Jail, the group encountered Austin lawyer R. Roscoe Haley. Haley was a flashy solo practitioner of no more than average legal talent. He was a gregarious, flamboyant character in his thirties. He enjoyed the limelight and public exposure, and the Kleasen case represented both. In many ways Haley and Kleasen seemed made for each other. Haley started talking to Kleasen's friends about his situation and volunteered, "It sounds like he needs a lawyer." Patrick Ganne, a "baby lawyer" just a year out of law school, was in the hallway and overheard the conversation. Soon Kleasen's friend Linda Miller was stopping regularly in Haley's office. On March 20 Kleasen wrote Haley: "I request your services as Attorney and Counselor of Record in the matter now pending before the 167th District Court …" Haley agreed, and Kleasen's letter ended up in the court file.
Haley also appreciated that he would need help so he approached Judge Blackwell about assistance. Blackwell understood the situation and appointed Ganne and another recent law school graduate, David Bays, to assist. Bays had clerked for Haley recently. He was a graduate of the Naval Academy at Annapolis and had a master's degree in engineering, but little legal experience. Ganne was a University of Texas Law School graduate and at least had a year's experience prosecuting misdemeanors in New Mexico. He had done exactly one felony trial with the district attorney's office in Albuquerque.
While the penniless Kleasen initially promised a private retainer, Haley, Ganne, and Bays were eventually paid by Travis County. [p.135] Ganne and Bays worked on the case full time from that point through the end of the trial.
Haley was a competent lawyer but had a drinking problem. In the weeks leading up to the Kleasen trial, he could be found passing the afternoon in his office with clients and an open vodka bottle on the desk. It was the two young lawyers who undertook discovery and all the other preparation for trial.
The following week Kleasen was back before Judge Blackwell with Haley and Ganne. Gibbins, Wilkerson, and Levatino were now officially off the case.
On March 24 Judge Blackwell set the trial for May 19. At Kleasen's insistence, they scrapped the insanity defense planned by their predecessors and announced a defense of complete innocence. There were also rumors about Kleasen's having read several books from the Bastrop Public Library on mental illness right after his arrest, making his new lawyers nervous about how well an insanity defense would stand up. Kleasen felt he was now in a position to direct his lawyers rather than their directing him. He was an accomplished manipulator and quickly sensed how to get Haley to do his bidding.
Kleasen took advantage of his new leading role to grant a lengthy interview with Associated Press reporter Robert Heard which was published the following weekend. It was Kleasen who contacted the press, but Haley agreed to the 90-minute interview at the county jail and was present while Kleasen told his stories. Heard described Kleasen as looking tired but enjoying the attention. "He appears to be weary, believing himself to be the target through the years of incompetents and of evil men. But he somehow conveys the impression he has arrived at precisely the spot he has sought so long—the center ring."
Heard speculated on what sort of man Kleasen was. He probably came closer than any of the mental health experts when he wrote that Kleasen seemed like "a weak man with Walter Mitty dreams; a man with limited talent but a clever imagination; a man who has made exaggerated claims so long he has come to believe them." Kleasen insisted he was innocent: "I certainly haven't killed anybody and I certainly haven't seen anybody killed." He denied having seen the mis-[p.136]sionaries on October 28, 1974. "They sent me a letter stating that they were coming on that date. Well, I clean forgot about it." (At other times, he claimed he had prepared dinner but the expected missionaries hadn't shown up.) And he denied any motive for murder: "I certainly don't have any animosity towards these people. They were just two nice young men." But he also said he hardly knew them. "I knew these people very, very, very slightly. I knew them less than I know you."
Under instructions from his lawyer not to discuss the murdered missionaries, Kleasen would say, "I think they [ate] once" at his trailer, but he expressed plenty of bitterness toward the LDS church. He said he was baptized in Austin in 1972, ignoring his 1973 baptism by Austin bishop Bruce Smith. "My church did not support me in any way, shape or form during my trials. In fact, I never received even a Christmas card from any of them. In fact, any time they came they did everything they could to hurt me." This probably referred to the several months Kleasen was in Texas Hill Country jails for shooting the buffalo. He also complained that an unnamed Mormon lawyer refused to represent him in the case, probably Ed Guyon. He accused two other church members of going through his trailer while he was jailed and stealing "whatever they wanted."
As if to remove any doubt that he lived a life of fantasy, Kleasen insisted that this prosecution was really a CIA plot. He said he learned to fly by age fifteen and that his secret agent career began as a test pilot. In 1951, when he was only nineteen, he claimed he was sent to Korea by Bell Aircraft to test their air-to-air and ground-to-air missiles. When the reporter told Kleasen he could check Bell employment records, Kleasen backpedaled, saying he was not sure how they would list him. Kleasen went on to claim he was also a U2 pilot. Somehow, however, he had graduated from test pilot to spy. He claimed that with the CIA he helped plan the 1961 Cuban Bay of Pigs invasion, and knew the details of the assassination of South Vietnam president Ngo Dinh Diem in 1963. Later he was assigned to watch groups like the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and the Weathermen while at the State University of New York at Buffalo. His cover was that he [p.137] was an ordinary college student. It was this assignment which brought him into contact with the Peace Movement and convinced him his CIA handlers were corrupt. Kleasen then decided to defect and save the world.
Admitting that he could not prove it, Kleasen said he quit the CIA in 1965 to join those opposed to the Vietnam War. He began to travel in Red China and North Vietnam on behalf of anti-war groups. With that act of conscience, Kleasen pronounced, the CIA became obsessed with silencing him. "I know too much. See, they don't know what I will divulge or what records I've taken or anything about it, so it's easier just to eliminate me." The agency was afraid of his "naming names, and embarrassing incidents," he boasted. After he quit the CIA, "they blew up my VW camper," he told AP. When asked if he still had CIA records in his possession, Kleasen laughed and asked the reporter, "You want to get me killed?" He then claimed his trailer was burglarized and ransacked after his December 1973 "fake" arrest on the buffalo rustling charge. "They took everything, including my dirty socks. How can I prove anything?" He recited dozens of misfortunes that had befallen him since leaving the CIA. Asked if he thought the CIA was responsible, he said, "I don't know, but how come all these things happen?"
After the interview, the reporter contacted the CIA and researched Associated Press files on the agency. There was no connection between Kleasen and the CIA. Bell Aircraft told the reporter Kleasen never worked for them either. Kleasen countered that the government had altered its records to remove him. He went on to claim he spoke several languages, that he was an expert marksman and designer of firearms, that he had two master's degrees and was just a few hours short of his Ph.D., and that he had an outstanding record as a sociology scholar. "You heard me speak at the sanity trial, and you know I am a highly educated, intelligent individual," Kleasen had boasted in a letter he had written to the Associated Press. At the conclusion of the interview, Kleasen told the reporter with a smile, "Sounds pretty wild, doesn't it?" He was basking in the attention.
The published interview did not just repeat the murder defendant's claims without challenge. Reporter Heard also interviewed [p.138] Kleasen's bishop, Frank McCullough, who was furious over the accusations of neglect by Mormons. "An outright lie," he said, noting that Kleasen "looses [sic] control easily." An indignant McCullough outlined for the AP the several jail visits to Kleasen by church representatives who left him fruit and other food stuffs.
Perhaps most galling to Kleasen's schizophrenia-fueled ego, Heard pointed out how badly he spelled. Kleasen's attorneys refused requests for further interviews.
Next Kleasen sought to make the courts a forum for his paranoid delusions. On April 22, a month before his trial was to begin, he persuaded Haley to sue the sheriff and chief jailer in a federal civil rights action. They sought $50,000 in damages. Kleasen claimed the sheriff and his chief jailer abused his rights by allowing him to be assaulted by other jail inmates, that they had denied him access to needed law books and access to his attorney at reasonable hours, that they were slowly starving him with inadequate food, and that they allowed a pattern of harassment and ridicule by other jailers. At the time the Travis County Jail was the subject of other suits about poor conditions, so Kleasen's claims were more plausible than most he made.
But his strangest allegation was that he had been deliberately fed a "centipede sandwich" by chief jailer Bill Mansell. The ever-creative Kleasen claimed the black insect—which he described as five inches long and an inch wide—was served to him between two slices of white bread alongside potatoes with cockroaches mixed in. The centipede was dead, Kleasen told reporters, because that was the only way it could be kept between the bread. Haley showed the press a dead centipede in a plastic bag at a press conference.
Kleasen insisted that Mansell had stood nearby watching "with a big grin on his face" while the meal was served. "I hope you enjoy your meal," he quoted Mansell as saying. Kleasen went on to insist that he had routinely been fed "cockroach tacos" in the jail. He said sometimes he was so hungry he would pick the insects out and eat the food, but at other times he could not bring himself to eat anything served him. In spite of this claim, Kleasen's lawyers noticed he had steadily gained weight in jail.
[p.139] Sheriff Frank was indignant. He told an Austin newspaper he had "never seen a centipede in the county jail. We have a minor problem with cockroaches but the jail is not infested. Don't take my word for it," he challenged. "I invite the media to go up and inspect the jail."
No sooner had Austin newspapers published accounts of Kleasen's suit than another inmate, eighteen-year-old Renaldo Ramirez, came forward to say it was really he who had given Kleasen the dead insect. He told a reporter for the University of Texas student newspaper that he had obtained the insect from someone in the jail hospital tank. "I gave Kleasen that centipede. It was burned and put in a plastic bag, and I gave it to him to give to his lawyer," Ramirez told the reporter.
Kleasen had accused Ramirez of being one of two inmates who had assaulted him in the jail and implied he was a homosexual. He then went off on a discourse about homosexual liaisons among Travis County Jail inmates. He told the AP there were several homosexual couples in the jail and this caused considerable friction among inmates. Kleasen said these inmates fell into "he" or "she" personalities depending on their role in the relationship. He said he was in the habit, like other inmates, of referring to inmates as "him" or "her" based upon their persona. Kleasen took this opportunity to say again that any incriminating evidence found at his trailer had been planted there, including some pornographic homosexual materials. "I am not a homosexual," he defiantly added.
The civil rights suit, not surprisingly, was strictly theater. It was filed with the clerk of the federal court but was never served on the defendants nor was any other action taken. In January 1980 Judge Roberts dismissed it, noting it had languished without action since filing.
Surprisingly, the only other thing Kleasen demanded from his defense team was that they not rely on the hated insanity defense. Beyond that his approach was pretty much hands off through the preparation as well as during the May and June trial.
The newly reconstructed defense team met with Kleasen in jail two or three times a week. When talking to his lawyers, Kleasen did not blame the incriminating evidence found in and around his trailer on a CIA conspiracy. Instead he saw a Mormon plot to get him. [p.140] "Whenever you hear anything coming out of the Mormon church," he instructed his lawyers, "remember that Joseph Smith was hung as a horse thief in Missouri, and that's all you need to know about them." Kleasen always denied involvement with or knowledge of the disappearance of the two missionaries.
Ganne found Kleasen to be an arrogant blowhard and hard to like. An experienced Naval intelligence officer who once tracked Soviet nuclear submarines, Ganne was quick to see how ridiculous Kleasen's claims of an espionage career were. He never told Kleasen about his own background with the navy. Bays, also a navy man, found his client just as hard to believe.
In view of Haley being the lead chair, his unwillingness to investigate or prepare on the law was frustrating to both Ganne and Bays. "His idea of trial preparation was to buy more suits," Bays now says. Ganne and Bays looked to Haley for leadership, but it was well into jury selection before they reluctantly concluded it was not forthcoming.
Considering that the Kleasen trial was destined to be one of the first tests of the new Texas death penalty law and could have impacted the national death penalty picture, it is surprising that Haley, Ganne, and Bays were offered no help from outsiders. They were very much on their own representing an extremely unpopular client. The situation was further compounded by Haley's attitude and his increased drinking. There was no real division of labor, so Ganne and Bays did whatever preparation they could think of.
The new defense team had adopted the pretrial motions of the first group of lawyers, so they concentrated on the physical evidence. They spent a lot of time with assistant district attorneys Charlie Craig and David Spencer examining the evidence. When the possibility of neutron activation analysis testimony came up, Ganne began learning everything he could about the science, anticipating a technical cross- examination. Bays had also recently researched the subject, which he expected to combine with his engineering background.
One day Ganne and Bays were walking around the taxidermy studio grounds trying to get a feel for the place. Ganne suddenly felt a [p.141] chill and the premonition that he knew exactly what had happened to the two missionaries, that Kleasen had used them for target practice. At the time Ganne did not know that other Mormons Kleasen had shot with would sometimes collect the targets down range then turn around to find Kleasen sighting down on them.
Ganne did most of the discovery, spending many days at the DPS crime lab or at the Austin Police Department looking over the evidence gathered by the huge state investigation and talking to expert witnesses. The band saw was still at the lab, looking sinister and ominous. He feared it could be devastating evidence at trial.
As the defense team came to appreciate the pile of circumstantial evidence accumulated against Kleasen, Ganne and Bays feared a guilty verdict was inevitable. Kleasen had no sane explanation to offer for all the victims' property found in and around his trailer. He would only say it was a Mormon plot. No defense strategy emerged from their preparations. They had no believable story consistent with innocence to offer to a jury. Ganne in particular started thinking in terms of preserving the record for their legal issues on appeal. "It was a loser from the word go," he thought, sensing nonetheless that the search warrant issue was worth pursuing.

We had many requests for custom length and custom micro packed Paracord and we're proud to release the Para-Pac 25' Sub Compact 550 Paracord.
550 PARA CORD, Commercial Grade U.S. made by the Government Contractor, cut in 25 foot hanks.
All Para Cord is not equal.
550 cord has tons of uses and should be included in everyone's outdoor kit or just around the house.
Other things that require great strength, durability, quick drying, rot and mildew resistance.
550 Para Cord consists of seven separate nylon strands inside a sheath to provide strength. The individual strands can be removed for other uses and the sheath can be used by itself for lanyards of all types.
550 Paracord is a must have in any bug-out-bag or EDC Pack and this compact hank of 25' is the perfect size to carry in my EDC pouch which rides in the larger BOB. Safety orange color makes it easy to locate and the lost cost makes it an easy choice to add to any kind of EDC kit.
If you're looking for good, strong, quality cordage to put in a small survival kit, then this should be an excellent fit. When para cord is too bulky or heavy and carrying a spool of dental floss seems too insufficient, then try this stuff.
A minimal supply or cordage is a must item for any personal survival kit (PSK), Go Bag, Get Home Bag, etc. This package is just right for a small kit. or to carry all the time in a BDU pocket as EDC. I bought several. Plan on getting some more.


If I want to dry chunks that I will use in cooking, I dry them at 155 degrees. Right now I am drying raw tomato wedges with skin on at 155 degrees. I stand them up, skin side down on parchment paper-lined trays and sprinkle Himalayan salt over them. When they get dry, I plan to grind them into powder to use for soups and sauces or whatever. I also make yogurt in my dehydrator.
I continued to grind away the next batch into a coarse powder. This time I was thinking lemon pepper. After I got the texture like I wanted, I tossed in a teaspoonful of fresh ground pepper, then gave it a quick spin to mix it up.
In a large bowl, whisk together the lime powder, grapeseed oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Add the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Grill the shrimp for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, until they're opaque in the middle.
The simplest installation for producing a powder consists of a drying chamber with an atomisation system, the air heater, a system for collecting the finished powder from the dry air and a fan which transports the necessary amount of air through the entire system.
Just like Lime Juice powder, Orange Juice Powder is a great way of infusing your dishes with a burst of citrus flavor. Try this fish recipe: Place filet in parchment or tin foil. Add a little to... Try this fish recipe: Place filet in parchment or tin foil.
A dry line (also called a dew point line, or Marfa front, after Marfa, Texas) is an imaginary line across a continent that separates moist air from an eastern body of water and dry desert air from the west.
Fruit powder is just one step past drying fruit, too; after a brief conditioning phase, all you have to do is pulverize it. For best color, taste and texture, use the freshest, ripest fruit available.

Neurodevelopmental outcome at 5 years of age after general anaesthesia or awake-regional anaesthesia in infancy (GAS): an international, multicentre, randomised, controlled equivalence trial. In laboratory animals, exposure to most general anaesthetics leads to neurotoxicity manifested by neuronal cell death and abnormal behaviour and cognition. Some large human cohort studies have shown an association between general anaesthesia at a young age and subsequent neurodevelopmental deficits (...) , but these studies are prone to bias. Others have found no evidence for an association.

Use of platelet transfusions prior to lumbar punctures or epidural anaesthesia for the prevention of complications in people with thrombocytopenia.

Lumbar punctures can be diagnostic (haematological malignancies, subarachnoid haematoma, meningitis) or therapeutic (spinal anaesthetic, administration of chemotherapy). Epidural catheters are placed for administration of epidural (...) anaesthetic. Current practice in many countries is to correct thrombocytopenia with platelet transfusions prior to lumbar punctures and epidural anaesthesia, in order to mitigate the risk of serious procedure-related bleeding. However, the platelet count threshold recommended prior to these procedures varies significantly from country to country. This indicates significant uncertainty among clinicians regarding the correct management of these patients. The risk of bleeding appears to be low

James Rowe | Chesterfield boss disappointed at the prospect of no Chelsea replay
Jan 7, 2022 | National League, News Now
James Rowe's Chesterfield will take on European Champions Chelsea in the Third Round of the FA Cup this weekend, but the Spireites boss believes it's a "shame" replays have been scrapped
By Amos Murphy

No replays across Third Round ties
Having progressed past League Two Salford City in the previous round, Chesterfield were rewarded with the glamour ties to end all glamour ties, a trip to Stamford Bridge.
Just 223 days since the Blues lifted the Champions League trophy in Porto, Thomas Tuchel's men will pit themselves against the National League leaders.
With over 6,000 Spireites supporters expected to make the journey South, Rowe has expressed his excitement ahead of the clash, but believes it's a disappointment a replay has been taken off the cards:
"I'm sure if we get to a stage against Chelsea where it was a draw after 90 minutes, then it would be a shame (to not have a replay), because we'd want to bring the European champions back to Chesterfield.
"That's what the rules are now, yes that can change things in the latter stages of the games with how we use subs.
"It's got to be won on the day, so we're just thinking about if it goes to extra-time what's the best way to win the match".
Rowe excited at prospect of Tuchel challenge
On the prospect of coming up against Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel, Rowe has expressed his anticipation at coming up against one of Europe's best managers:
"His background is different to mine, in terms of giving up playing in his 20s because of an injury.
"I like to concentrate not on the resources he has, but his game plans and the way he sets up his team.
"He's a peer working at the top of the field I work in, so I have a lot of admiration for Thomas and hopefully I'll get some time to sit down and talk to him".
Chesterfield prepared for introduction of VAR
With preparations a little different than their usual National League match-week, Rowe has admitted his players have been getting ready for another unusual quirk of elite level football.
As the game will be taking place at Stamford Bridge, VAR will be in operation throughout the evening, and Rowe understands the complications it can bring:
"It's definitely different to our normal environment in the National League, we've spoken to the players about it.
"Any outcome that impacts the game we have to be aware of, and yes it's new for us, so we'll have to be careful".

Predators to dress 2 untested goalies vs. Hawks
No matter who the Nashville Predators start in goal for Wednesday's game in Chicago, they'll be using a player making his first NHL start.
Starter Pekka Rinne left Saturday's 4-1 win over Anaheim in the third period with a lower-body injury and isn't expected to dress for the Predators' first road game. Nashville will dress two rookies -- Anders Lindback, who made his first NHL appearance when he finished Saturday's game -- and callup Mark Dekanich.
It's the first time a team has dressed two goaltenders with zero career NHL starts since Dec. 12, 2008, when Washington Capitals starter Jose Theodore was injured during the morning skate. Backup Brent Johnson was able to start, but the Caps had to dress former college goalie Brett Leonhardt, a producer for the team's website, as his backup because Semyon Varlamov was unable to get to the Verizon Center by game time. Varlamov, who had never played in the NHL, reached the arena during the first period and replaced Leonhardt as Johnson's backup,
The last time the only two goalies on a team's roster had yet to make an NHL start was Nov. 26, 2006, in Anaheim's 5-3 victory against Calgary. Michael Wall, a 21-year-old, played the full 60 minutes, allowing three goals and getting the victory, while David McKee, 23, served as his backup.

Letters: Wrong message; Engaging parents; Gov. Hogan
Since I arrived in this wonderful city in 2011 I've never felt compelled to write a letter to the editor until now. The operative word here is 'compelled'. Many of us in the African-American community are still rejoicing over the rich and meaningful experiences of our Martin Luther King, Jr Day activities. The celebrations began on the Friday before with the Martin Luther King, Jr Awards Dinner which honors persons in the community engaged in the work of peace, justice and social change. The festivities continued on Monday morning with the Annual MLK, Jr Breakfast at the Community College. At noon we enjoyed the inaugural MLK, Jr City of Annapolis Parade. What a joy that was for everyone involved. People of all walks of life, representing the diversity and beauty of our city and county were there. It was a marvelous time. The evening ended with an interdenominational worship service at a packed house at Mt. Olive A.M.E. Church in Parole.
I take the time to recount all this because anyone attending these events would have been reasonable in assuming that all was well in our city. It would have been a fair assessment to conclude that this town has overcome it's troubled past with race and reconciliation matters. Yet, on the day we celebrated the legacy and sacrifice of that great modern prophet, Rams Head Restaurant on West Street displayed on its menu board what can only be regarded as an affront – to Dr. King and his legacy, as well as to those of us who labor to remember and continue the work of justice and to keep the dream alive. Rams Head advertised three daily specials on their outdoor menu board that day. The first was called 'The Dream Speech'. This, in and of itself, is problematic for those of us who actually honor the hard-fought holiday. This commercialization of the holiday is regrettable. Of course, this is true not only for those who honor Dr. King's holiday. I hear similar laments from veterans and military families with regard to Veteran's Day and Memorial Day. However, what elevated this act to the level of offense was the description of 'The Dream Speech' special. It's primary ingredient, as listed on the board, was "lightly darkened chicken". Lightly darkened chicken! For the life of me, I can't understand how anyone could find that amusing or clever.
On a day when we celebrate the life and work of a man who longed for the day when persons would be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin, Rams Head chose to peddle a salad whose foundation is 'lightly blackened chicken'? I had thought that, a week hence, the outrage over this would have abated. It has not. Personally, Rams Head has been one of my favorite Annapolis restaurants and entertainment venues. I'm sick at the thought that I've been patronizing, at best, ignorance, and at worst, unbridled bigotry. Rams Head owes the community an apology and a promise to learn from what I hope is no more than a bone-headed error in judgment.

Never for one minute did my wife and I ever think that the school system was responsible for our children's development. Not once were we willing to abdicate our parental responsibilities (privileges) to a government apparatus that was set on ignoring or diminishing our parental roles.
In the future, I think that Dr. Arlotto's clarion call needs to implore disengaged parents to accept their responsibility and stop assuming that the government school, and community, will raise their children.

IFC Films has acquired North American rights to Harald Zwart's The 12th Man from TrustNordisk.
The $8.1m (€7m) war survival tale, based on the true story of a Norwegian resistance fighter who escaped the Nazis, has also sold to Italy (Videa CDE), Korea (AtNine), China (HGC), Turkey (Sinema), Estonia/Baltics (Estin), Former Yugoslavia (Cinemania) and Czech and Slovak Republics (Cinemart).
As previously reported, Constantin Film has acquired rights to German-speaking Europe.
The film will be released in Norway on Christmas Day.
Aage Aaberge produces for Nordisk Film Production Norway in cooperation with Zwart Arbeid, Motion Blur and FilmCamp, with support from The Norwegian Film Institute and Kulturnæringsstiftelsen SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge.
Dutch-Norwegian director Zwart, whose credits include The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones and The Karate Kid, returns to European filmmaking after wanting to tell this story for more than 15 years.
The 12th Man is inspired by the true story of Jan Baalsrud, who was on a resistance fighting mission in March 1943 when his 11 Norwegian comrades were captured and killed. He managed to escape and then travelled across Norway's frozen wilderness for nine grueling weeks.
