Forgotten Soundtracks
by Cpt Kirks 2pay on Sat Dec 10, 2005 1:00 am
I desperatley want to get hold of the Fandango soundtrack together with complete score.
I don't think it ever existed though. Any ideas?
Also still trying to get my hands on the Artificial Intelligence Complete Score too. Apart from the obvious palces, Ebay etc. any other ideas?
Oh, and Agent Alonzo? Don;t worry about what OMD are doing now. One of the band members did a wonderful, miraculous thing for the world but especially me, and that was to give us ATOMIC KITTEN.
I still hold them right here in my heart.

Well, I first thought of Tangerine Dream's Legend soundtrack, but it's already been mentioned.
Honestly though, I like James Horner's Willow Soundtrack. A little melodramatic in places, but also quite beautiful and haunting.
Off topic... Still thinking Val Kilmer would have done better as Robin Hood than Kevin Costner (well almost anybody would have really...)

I love Miklos Roza's score for "Time Afte Time." The music for the chase scene between H.G. Wells and Jack the Ripper through San Fransisco kicks all sorts of ass.

Come on guys, Ennio Morricones scores to all the Leone films. Ohhhh, shiver. Put it on your IPOD nanny-o and make every little mundane thing you do epic.

I agree that they're things of beauty, but they're not exactly forgotten. I was listening to a Cypress Hill song the other day that sampled the Harmonica bit from Once Upon a Time in the West. And hot damn, if I hear that quivering Good, Bad and the Ugly lick one more time I'm gonna have to shoot somebody

ANy chance I get to blag that soundtrack... As for forgotten, I like the title, but all the soundtracks I've seen here are pretty well remembered on the whole, but I'll certainly try a little harder for ya!
Dirty Dancing, forgotten, maybe for a reason. Patrick Swayze crooning "She's like the wind" makes you wonder how he never launched a successful music career and Billy Ray Syrus did. You gotta love the music cue in the film where "Overload" kicks in as he smashes the window of the car to drive to the place with that fallen log and then swim in what looks like a very cold lake, all the while revealing Jennifer Greys little moist mounds.

Pretty in Pink also has Suzanne Vega & Joe Jackson doing "Left of Center." EXCELLENT song.
Here's some 80's Velveeta:
Better Off Dead soundtrack -- available on CD! Woo your own personal Beths and Moniques with the same synth fluff you wore out on VHS, yawned out mostly by "poor man's Howard Jones" Rupert Hine. Plus the title song, performed by E.G. Daily!
Summer School soundtrack -- out of print on CD. Maybe you can find a used copy or download the good stuff, like Boingo's "Happy"... or "Mind Over Matter" by the ever present E.G. Daily (she kept busy when she wasn't being Dottie opposite Pee Wee Herman).

Um...I would have to say that a forgotten gem would have to be, the christmas soundtrack of Toys.
Simply ethereal music that will get even the biggest grinch in the mood for a little Yuletide cheer.

Tangerine Dreams Near Dark score
Neil Young's score for Dead Man is absolutely brilliant, hypnotic and mythic.

Extreme Prejudice - excellent Jerry Goldsmith synth score that never pusses out and becomes kitchy 80's synth. Cool neo-western too.
Jackie Brown - this Tarantino soundtrack seems to get no love...except from me.
King Kong (1976) - Don't know if it's forgotten, but seems to unfairly suffer it's association with the title film.
J.W. Grant: You bastard.
Rico: Yes sir. In my case an accident of birth. But you, you're a self-made man.

was a bigger fan of the first Crow soundtrack - but the soundtrack to Repo man is definitely one of my faves (was beginning to think I was too old for the zone) both this and Grosse Point Blank were done by Joe Strummer, right? although John Cusack (as is the case with High Fidelity) had alot of input

"We all gotta duck / when the shit hits the fan". That's a sublime punk rock collection. Even the spanish-language cover version of Secret Agent Man kicks ass on that thing.
Pity it doesn't include the song the Circle Jerks performed on stage the way they did it in that one scene (shooby do wop wop say yeah)
Some other notables:
Heat. Definitely one of the soundtracks to match a movie's mood.
Blade Runner. I found a copy of a version different from the official one Vangelis released, which I also have. It includes the "Roy meets with Tyrrell" elevator music. I think the writing on the disc is Checkoslovakian (sp?).
Strange Days - while the movie wasn't great (I'd call it an unofficial sequel to Brainstorm), the soundtrack is. The final song sounds like Peter Gabriel singing in Esperanto, but he isn't listed as the singer.
Until the End of the World - U2, Talking Heads, and some other great music there.
Conan The original movie soundtrack is a good orchestral and choral composition.

Oh yeah, most of the Tangerine Dream soundtracks were cool, but I'll mention the one for Miracle Mile as one of my favorites, too.

Lost Boys - The INXS/Jimmy Barnes tune is still great. Autoerotic-what?
Judgement Night - Like it was said above - ahead of its time.
Any John Hughes, although Pretty In Pink gets my top vote.
Die Hard - Why isn't this a wide release, and why are the only copies available on eBay for over $100? I love the way that Michael Kamen (RIP) messes with Beethoven in this one.
Beverly Hills Cop - Axel-F Theme alone is worth the price.

Some of my favorite 80s instrumental soundtracks were the early work of Mark Isham. On vinyl, I had a release called Film Music, with music from 'Never Cry Wolf,' a documentary on Harvey Milk, and a little remembered film called Mrs. Soffel, starring Mel Gibson, Diane Keaton and Matthew Modine. For a practically unknown film, this had one of the most haunting piano themes I've ever heard for a movie. Just brilliant. I'm also a fan of his OST for another little known film called The Moderns, with Keith Carradine, Linda Fiorentino, Geraldine Chaplin and Wallace Shawn. Some great work that evokes Paris of the 20s.
For song soundtracks, I'll echo Wim Wenders' Until the End of the World, and add the two angel masterpieces Wings of Desire and Faraway, So Close. Great use of Nick Cave, Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson, Crime and the City Solution, House of Love, Jane Siberry and more (oh yeah, and that U2 song - makes much more sense in context with the film).

The Messiah Will Enter Jerusalem on a Donkey
The Messiah Will Enter the City of Jerusalem on a Lowly Donkey
Zech 9:9 "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; he is just and having salvation, lowly and riding on a donkey, a colt, the foal of a donkey.
Matt 21:2-3 saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loose them and bring them to Me. "And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, `The Lord has need of them,' and immediately he will send them."
- Messiah will enter Jerusalem in great humility, on a donkey (the symbol of humility). The opposite of worldly power and self exaltation.
- Riding a donkey was a sign of the lowly character of Christ, since it was a despised thing to be seen riding on a donkey, put below the horse-rider.
- This was in contrast to the Grecian conqueror, Alexander the Great, in all his pomp and glory.
- Why were they to rejoice greatly and to shout? because "Behold, your King is coming to you"
- Daughter of Zion and daughter of Jerusalem both speak of Jerusalem and the people of God.
- To be "Just" was the first virtue of a good king.
- "Having salvation" speaks of being endowed with salvation (Heb. yesha), this word speaks of liberty, deliverance, prosperity, safety and salvation.
- The colt was an unbroken animal. It describes the ass of a young animal, but still running behind the she-asses made it even younger.
- "al-chamor we'al-'ayir ben-'athonoth" means literally, "on an ass, and on an ass's colt, the son of the wild-asses".
- War-chariots and horses speak of earthly (worldly) power.
- Kings, high priests, judges, and the richest people of ancient and modern times have ridden on donkeys.
- Donkeys were considered beautiful, strong, swift, surefooted and a beast of burden.
- Donkeys carry burdens of greater weight in proportion to their size than any other animal. They bear the burdens that we lay upon them.
- Donkey colts (Heb. Ayir) are also called foals, young donkeys, and colts in the Bible.
- The Talmud states: "For the ass is not a more peaceful animal than the horse, but a more vicious one" (Kliefoth), therefore the ass was more of a symbol of lowliness than of peace.
Would Enter Jerusalem on a Donkey - Zechariah 9:9 - (MP3 File) (from the Hebrew perspective)

This is our formula that put VIP on the map and now is known to be one of the best tanning solutions with the most natural looking color-guide being produced today. This formula like our others is 100% paraben free and made up some of natures finest ingredients and below we will break down a few of them for you.
White Tea Extract: is a natural antioxidant, which literally scavenges free radicals. Because it is easily absorbed, it protects our skin from UV radiation, strengthens connective tissue and blood vessels, and inhibits the oxidation of unsaturated fats. Thus, white tea is a highly active antioxidant. Additionally, it protects against photo-aging.
Erythrulose: is a natural sugar which when incorporated with DHA prolongs and produces a natural tan. Well documented Clinical Studies illustrate the tan extension, color improvement and the activity in reducing skin dry out. Blind studies have shown the optimum ratio of DHA and Erythrulose to achieve the maximum benefits.
Grapefruit Seed Extract: One of the top benefits of Grapefruit Seed Extract is its antioxidant properties. This works through the Vitamin C found naturally in the grapefruit. Vitamin C works with blood cells, finding uneven numbered atoms to pair with which neutralizes harmful free radicals to help with a smoother and more even appearance of our natural skin tone.
Along with these few ingredients listed we utilize certified Organic Aloe Vera and 99.9% Kosher Plant Derived Glycerin in optimal ratios that truly benefit your skin while giving you the most natural looking spray tan you have ever seen before. The key to these wonderful natural ingredients to moisturize your skin while at the same locking in hydration which is very vital to how our Photo Shoot Tans fade so beautifully!
Photo Shoot spray tan solution has a beautiful bronzer color guide makeup that lasts longer, dries faster and fades so even most people will not believe you are sporting a spray on tan!
Just jumped back into VIP after a hiatus from airbrushing. Worked with VIP a few years ago and just like last time they were amazing. They called me to check in and see if I needed anything Got my order the next day which was amazing and the product is per usual the best tan ever. So natural looking, not smelly, and longer lasting than other products. Wouldn't use anything else!
I absolutely love the tonality of the VIP Photoshoot products! So beautiful and natural looking. Awesome system and support!
This product is truly amazing! So natural!!
We started using VIP Premium blends about a year ago. The tan is so incredibly natural. People stop me all the time even in the off season (Philadelphia)to comment on my skin tone. The 10.5% works for the largest range of skin tones. Just ordered the speedy tan and looking forward to seeing how that develops in just 2 short hours especially when you have time constraints!
If you try others, you will always come back to this.
VIP is the PERFECT tanning solution!

21 Jan Santa's Helpers

In the beginning, what we did was beautiful.
It all started in 345 when Saint Nicholas supposedly "died." Or at least, that was the story given out. What a bad joke. As if a man who could resurrect pickled meat into living breathing children would ever be killed. Hell, there's a reason no one can agree when he's supposed to have died. Because the story was impossible to keep straight. But it wouldn't do for a man of his talents to leave a forwarding address, so he let Diocletian believe he had murdered yet another Christian martyr and came north. As north as north would go. Where there would be no Romans, no Pagans, and no governments of any kind to interfere with his noble work: the work not of a noble mortal bishop, but of an immortal sorcerer-king – the being you call Santa. It was a perfect plan. Saint Nicholas thought he would be left alone to do his work at the north pole, where no man could survive except by means of magic. It never occurred to him that someone would be waiting for him – that we would.
And yet, when Saint Nicholas first stepped onto the frozen tundra that made up our home, he must have sensed that he was an intruder in a place filled with beings infinitely more terrible and infinitely more ancient, because to his credit, he did not seek to drive us out. He was wise enough to know that he would be torn limb from limb and his immortal guts would be left to writhe in the cold northern air for eternity if he mounted a full-frontal assault. So, rather than fight us with magic, Saint Nicholas did what he did best: he brought gifts. Oh, not toys or bonbons of the kind he gives to human children, don't misunderstand. No, the gifts he brought us were gifts of blood: heads of polar bears stuffed with burning holly; whole, dripping caribou roasted with Greek spices; even the occasional aborted fox cub rubbed in cranberry sauce. In short, he brought all the gifts that we cold sprites of the north would be most hungry to try and, in so doing, attracted us to his bonfire night after night, until even our great Erlking himself grew hungry and curious about the man who did not run when we approached. It was only when that dread monarch approached Saint Nicholas's fire that he spoke to us at last and offered the partnership that endures to this day.
Saint Nicholas told us that he planned to raise a castle in the north, where he would begin the great missionary process of teaching children the ways of God through an ingenious strategy. He would spend the whole year making gifts for the world's children, the very gifts that they most desperately wanted, and then he would give them away to those select children who had lived according to God's word. And gradually, as word of this magical phenomenon spread by word of mouth, Saint Nicholas would convert all the world into his flock. Such was his plan, but in order to carry it off, he would need the help of beings like us for, while he had great magic, his powers were as a candle compared to the sun when matched against ours. He needed us to hide his castle from mortal eyes, and to slow down time so that he could conjure the gifts required for his plan to work. In exchange for our producing these wonders, he would give us an invincible passport to walk among mortals. He would teach the children to regard us not as evil dervishes of the cold northern air, but rather as his helpers. In time, he would even station one of us in every child's home to keep tabs on the child in question: to record his or her sins, to communicate what gifts he or she wanted, and most importantly, to act as enforcers if the sinning did not stop.
It was an ingenious offer, for we are not like mortals. Neither time nor death nor hunger can touch us, and so Saint Nicholas offered us the one thing that keeps our existence worthwhile: novelty. If his plan worked, we could not only indulge our curiosity about mortal men, but could even play tricks on mankind's children for the rest of eternity with the implicit sanction of human morality. And so, the bargain between Saint Nicholas and the Erlking was struck. We raised him a great castle out of the ice and snow, and hid it from all eyes but his and ours. We even fixed the broken-down old sleigh he had used to reach us and gave him eight immortal caribou that ran faster than any other beast of burden to draw it. And so, slowly, the conquest of the world by Saint Nicholas and his sprites began.
At first, he kept his influence solely to those parts of the world that were closest to the North Pole. Then, once the children in those places had internalized how and why presents mysteriously appeared at their homes every year at the same time, Saint Nicholas would invite us along to enter those children's homes and to hide in the dark places where no one would care to look so that we could keep watch. And soon after that, it wasn't just the story of Santa that children in the north told each other. No, the story of monsters under their beds and in their cupboards began to multiply as well, for the naughty children soon learned that worse things than coal awaited them when they angered their mysterious benefactor and his enforcers. Our Erlking was even allowed to abduct the worst of them each year and subject them to sundry frightening but harmless torments before returning them to their parents, properly chastened. And so for those first few centuries, our partnership prospered.
Now at first, we lived to see the moments when those children broke the covenant that our employer's generosity imposed on them. The sound of their cries was like a shimmering song to us, and the taste of their tears was sweeter than the richest hot cocoa. Yet as our reach expanded and we grew used to living alongside generation after generation of children, our attitudes began to change. We began to grow…fond of the children. The sight of their joy on Christmas morning became just as sweet as the sound of their cries of terror when we had to punish them. In fact, our punishments became less gleeful and more angry, more disappointed, the longer we went on living with mortal men. I think Saint Nicholas must have known this would happen. In fact, I wonder if he wasn't doing the whole thing to civilize not just his own species, but ours as well. It would fit with his way of doing things.
But, in any case, even as our punishments carried more disappointment, I am happy to say that they also grew less frequent with time. The sternness of Saint Nicholas and his enforcers had, in fact, wrought a change in humanity, and made them all more obedient, more docile, and even, sometimes, kinder to each other. And the more we cared for humanity, the more beautiful this seemed to us, that we – the beings that mankind most feared – had brought a modicum of peace on earth and of goodwill to mankind.
Of course, we only measured the decency of mankind by looking at the behavior of its children. Perhaps as a consequence of growing up with us, and of developing a science that sucked out ever more mystery and magic from the world, the adults ceased to fear us, or to believe in us altogether. Which, we thought, would not make much difference. By the time they reached adulthood, the lessons that we had enforced would have sunk in perfectly well, and they would no longer need the dread of the fae to make them behave themselves. So long as the children remained believers, we thought nothing could interfere with our work.
We were fools.
The first cracks began to show with the development of industry. Mind you, industry seemed good for our employer at first. He was pushing 1500 years old, and even our magic could not delay the slowing effects of age enough to wash that away entirely. To be able to automate his labors was a blessing, as was the development of the chimney, which made the laborious process of entering houses that much easier. But, unfortunately, that gift of the chimney was quite literally poisoned. A 1500-year-old man can only shimmy down so many smoke-blackened chutes before breathing all that soot starts to affect his mind. It was only our magic that kept him doing this for 1600 years before the most serious problems became unavoidable. Really, we should have known what was coming when Saint Nicholas's eyesight all but went and we were forced to give him a ninth caribou that could see through fog with glowing red eyes, and was intelligent enough to navigate the sleigh in his place.
I do not know which of us first saw the ultimate betrayal happen. Perhaps one day a child screamed at their parents in a way that would normally earn a visit from the Erlking, only to wake up and find a pile of presents under their tree, as if nothing had happened. Perhaps it was slower, and more minor transgressions ceased to earn coal in the stocking before the whole moral architecture collapsed. But one way or another, eventually, a panic spread among us as we realized that something had broken down, and that children who broke the rules were somehow still receiving presents. Frantically, we sent messages to the North Pole asking to understand what was happening, and the grim reply came back: "Saint Nicholas's mind is going. The toxins and old age have become too much. We think it will be easier if he just gives presents to everyone. And in any case, it's not fair to expect the children to follow the rules. Their parents don't teach them anymore."
We were stunned. In our foolishness, we had thought that the adults would carry the lessons of their childhood forever. But apparently, the opposite had happened. Mankind had grown arrogant. They had ceased to believe not only in spirits and monsters, but in the entire enterprise. Saint Nicholas was a joke to them, a friendly face to be plastered onto objects and then forgotten about for eleven months of the year. And as for the morality he had tried to teach them? Not one of them had actually believed in it. They had simply complied until the threat of losing presents, and of facing monsters they no longer believed in, was gone.
At first, this realization prompted only shock. Then came despair. Then anger. And then the deepest, most savage revulsion. Of course mankind didn't believe in monsters! They wanted to be naughty so badly that they had destroyed every notion of magic, or morality in their children. Why should they fear monsters? Now, they were the monsters. Whereas we, who had started as the nightmare denizens of a Pagan wilderness, were now wholly and desperately attached to the rectitude of our mission. All the beauty of what we had done, of what we had accomplished, tasted like ashes in our mouths. We had not brought peace on earth and goodwill to men. We had only created the artificial show of it among mankind's children, who then happily returned to cruelty and viciousness once our boots were off their necks. Saint Nicholas had shown them generosity and they had spat on it, and yet still reaped the benefits of what he offered because an ancient, foolish, and fond old man was now too demented to understand anything other than the joy his visits brought, and therefore would never stop them. We should have simply let Saint Nicholas die in order to stop the sick charade, but beings like us are bound by promises, and as Saint Nicholas had not broken our covenant, we could not sever it ourselves. There would be no choice for us but to let him continue until our magic completely ran out.
And yet, in that covenant, the ghost of something like justice was still able to be found. For Saint Nicholas had still empowered us to punish the children of man when they failed to abide by the morality he taught. And while mankind no longer feared monsters of the literal sort, we soon learned that they feared something else with the power to be far worse: they feared the monsters in their own minds. Where once, mankind had done rituals to rid themselves of bogies and pixies and sprites, now they did similar but more complicated rituals to wade off new demons. So we adapted, and took on the new names they had fashioned for us. But, no longer did we fancy that we could offer succor to those who behaved morally, who still followed the old code. We knew better now. We knew that the entire human pretense to morality was simply a cringing mask to avoid punishment. That there were no naughty and nice children: that deep down, every child was naughty in their hearts, even if they were nice in their actions. And so we inflicted ourselves upon mankind with indiscriminate wrath. And our new names, I am happy to say, are even more feared today than our old Pagan identities were: names like depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and disassociative identity disorder. We do not want to bear these names, but neither do we mourn the necessity. Mankind showed their true face to us long since. We are only abiding by the contract that Saint Nicholas was foolish enough to believe that he – and they – could keep.
So by all means, lie to yourselves that you can avoid us if you just don't cry, or don't pout. Delude yourselves into thinking that we keep some sort of list, let alone need to check it twice, to see which of you to afflict. Not one sentence of it is true. Except one. The reason you face the persecution of spirits who were foolish to believe better of you, and now know the error of our ways, is because now, centuries after it should have stopped, Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.

The Golden State Warriors finished off 2022 with a 118-112 win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Despite an up-and-down season, the Dubs will head into the new year above .500 at 18-17. The victory on Friday Night improved the Warriors to 16-2 at the Chase Center this season.
Warriors guards Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson came out firing, starting hot from the field and combining to score 29 points in the first quarter. The Dubs led 41-25 heading into the second quarter, although a 10-0 Blazers run quickly prevented Golden State from building a huge margin. The Warriors managed to hold onto the lead for the rest of the first half, leading 60-56 at the half.
A slow slow start to the third quarter opened the door for Portland to finally take the lead. They did not look back in the quarter. It seemed unlikely the Warriors would be able to comeback. However, they stayed within striking distance. In the final minutes, Poole eclipsed the 40-point mark with a three that brought the Warriors within one before a stop resulted in a Jonatahn Kuminga dunk to give them a 111-110 lead with two minutes left in regulation.
With the game on the line, Draymond Green stopped another Blazers possession and pushed the ball upcourt to Kuminga. Kuminga found a trailing Thompson who knocked down a triple to give the Dubs a 114-110 lead. Then, after the Blazers took their final timeout, the Warriors defense forced a five-second violation before Portland could in-bound the ball. The Blazers managed just 16 points in the final quarter.
The Blazers pulled within a pair in the final minute, and a turnover by Poole gave Portland an amazing opportunity to at least tie the game up. Instead, Donte DiVincenzo picked Damian Lillard's pocket and knocked down a dagger three on the other end. Lillard led the Blazers with 34 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists. Once again, the depleted Warriors had enough offense early and enough defense late to keep their home winning streak going.
Poole finished with a game-high 41 points alongside 5 rebounds and 6 assists, although he did commit 7 turnovers. Thompson racked up 31 points of his own. Green was the only other Warrior to score at least 10 points, adding 11 rebounds and 4 assists to his final line. That said, DiVincenzo racked up 9 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals.
The Warriors will continue their longest homestand of the season in 2023. They will face the Hawks on Tuesday, January 2nd at 7:00 PM Pacific.

Ruth Knelman's mission of volunteerism began 65 years ago, when she, her late husband and young son moved to Minneapolis from North Dakota.
With glasses perched on her nose and preschoolers gathered at her feet, the volunteer known affectionately as "Grandma Ruth" began to read.
Nursery rhymes tumbled out of the centenarian's mouth while the eager children hung on her every word.
The youngsters have become accustomed to Tuesday morning story times. Each week, Temple Israel's eldest congregant visits all seven of the Minneapolis synagogue's early childhood classes.
When she finished the picture book, the 108-year-old slowly pushed herself up from the couch and waved goodbye.
"I'm getting old," quipped Knelman, a petite woman with perfectly coifed white hair and champagne-colored nails.
But she isn't slowing down.
The lifelong altruist splits her time between Temple Israel and the nearby Jefferson Community School, where she reads to kindergartners and helps teachers hand out snacks. Her mission of volunteerism began 65 years ago, when she, her late husband and young son moved to Minneapolis from North Dakota.
Knelman, one of the oldest living Minnesotans — the oldest is believed to be 111-year-old Evelyn Kleine of St. Anthony — is still able-bodied and sharp. She lives alone in the two-bedroom apartment near Lake Bde Maka Ska she's had for more than 40 years, plays bridge every Saturday and occasionally teaches fellow congregants how to make her famous matzo ball soup.
Her son, Kip Knelman, 69, says she's in such good health that he often forgets just how old she is. "At her age, it's incomprehensible that she can do everything that she does," he said.
Knelman was born in New York on May 21, 1910 — two years before the Titanic sank, four years before the start of WWI and 10 years before women won the right to vote. "I wanna live forever, but I know it's not possible," she said.
Of course, everyone asks for her secret to longevity.
Knelman also admitted that she doesn't exercise or drink much water, but she does enjoy coffee and scotch. Those who know her best say her mind-set — along with good genes — may be the keys.
Raised in Winnipeg, Knelman eventually wed a schoolmate named Edward. They moved to the United States for his job as a traveling salesman and she became a homemaker. While Kip was away playing with friends, Knelman made time to get out and volunteer around town.
Over the years, her connection with the local Jewish community granted her additional opportunities to help others. She hopped three buses to volunteer at Mount Sinai Hospital in Minneapolis until the day it closed in 1991. A contact there eventually led her to Jefferson, where she's served for more than three decades.
Meanwhile, Temple Israel had become her second home. It was where she could practice her faith and share her love of home cooking, which she calls a lost art. Through a series of small classes in the synagogue kitchen, Knelman taught women how to make traditional Jewish cuisine, from a brisket to noodle kugel.
Though the courses have ended, she still delights friends and relatives with her specialties. Knelman says she'd love to work for a catering company. "No one in the world would hire me at this age," she said with a sigh.
But Knelman gets her greatest satisfaction from reading to tots in the classroom. Generations have grown up before her eyes and brought their own children back for story time.
As the first female rabbi in the synagogue's history, Zimmerman initially faced resistance from some older congregants, including Knelman. But Knelman's views evolved. Over the last 30 years, the two women have become close friends.
"We take care of her," Zimmerman said. Fellow worshipers make sure Knelman has rides to Shabbat services, where she has a designated seat in the second row of the sanctuary.

UV radiation is not a common way to kill viruses and bacteria in the body
Health experts say there is no evidence that injecting ultraviolet light into the body would kill viruses like the novel coronavirus.
There is no scientific evidence to support alternative health treatments like ultraviolet blood irradiation.
Health experts have debunked President Donald Trump's idea to potentially use sunlight to treat coronavirus patients. But some social media users say the president is onto something.
An April 24 Facebook post shows an image of what appears to be someone hooked up to an IV that is emanating blue light. The caption claims it shows a "UV radiation" treatment.
"For all you dummies that have absolutely no idea what trump is talking about... INTERNAL DISINFECTANT aka Ultraviolet Radiation is administered into the body as a 'disinfectant' to kill bacteria and viruses and this has been used for a while now," reads the post.
This post was flagged as part of Facebook's efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook.)
(Screenshot from Facebook)
During an April 23 press briefing, Trump floated the idea of using light to treat COVID-19 patients after a Department of Homeland Security official presented a preliminary study that found sunlight kills the coronavirus on certain surfaces. We found no evidence to suggest such a treatment would work on patients, but we wanted to take a closer look at this recent Facebook post.
While the exact origin of the image in the post is unclear, its central claim — that some health care providers inject UV light into patients to kill bacteria and viruses — is inaccurate. We reached out to the original poster for evidence, but we haven't heard back.
We used a reverse image search to scour the internet for the source of the photo in the Facebook post. While we couldn't find the source, we did find several tweets from the same day that included the image.
One user who shared the photo claimed it shows ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI). The treatment involves drawing a patient's blood, then exposing that blood to an external light box before returning it to the body. It was popular in the mid-20th century before the development of antibiotics and was used to treat conditions including pneumonia, tuberculosis, arthritis and asthma..
Now UBI is mainly used in the alternative-medicine community. But UV light is not "administered" into patients' bodies, as the Facebook post claims, and experts who have experimented with the treatment say there is no scientific evidence that it kills bacteria or viruses.
stated on December 15, 2020 in a radio show segment
Dr. Edzard Ernst, an emeritus professor of complementary medicine at the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom, said the research into UBI and related methods has been limited in scope.
"Yes, there are quite a few papers on UBI and related methods. But most of them are in-vitro studies, while robust clinical trials are missing completely," Ernst wrote in an April 25 blog post. "Needless to say also that UBI is an invasive treatment where lots of things might go badly wrong."
RELATED: Why Trump's comments on using disinfectants, sunlight to treat COVID-19 are wrong
There are three types of UV light: UVA, UVB and UVC. The first makes up the majority of radiation that reaches the Earth, the second can cause sunburn and skin cancer, and the third destroys genetic material.
Applying UVC light to rooms and surfaces has helped some hospitals cut the transmission rate of diseases like MRSA, which can linger in rooms after patients are discharged. The light waves kill bacteria and viruses by disrupting their DNA.
But applying UVC light directly to the body would damage genetic material and cause burns within seconds, experts told PolitiFact. Physicians do sometimes use UVA or UVB light to treat skin lymphoma, but they avoid giving patients too much, as it could increase their chances of developing skin cancer later in life.
"There is a modified version of this in which a drug can be injected ahead of time to increase cell sensitivity to externally applied UV, but in general it's not possible to inject UV light itself," said Dr. Angela Rasmussen, an associate research scientist at Columbia University's Center for Infection and Immunity, in an email.
Health care providers also sometimes treat donated blood or plasma with radiation before performing infusions to prevent certain diseases, but most American blood banks use gamma rays or x-rays. That's different from using UV light to treat blood or plasma that's still inside a patient.
"There is no evidence that injecting UV light into the body will kill bacteria or viruses," said Dr. Krutika Kuppalli, a clinical assistant professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases and Geographic Medicine at Stanford University, in an email. "We irradiate blood that has been taken out of the body, but that is different than using UV light. I am not sure what that picture is in the Facebook post."
The Facebook post is inaccurate. We rate it False.

The growth sought after is expected to arise from lagging companies and government catching up with the best performers. Beyond the popular technology led trends such as Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence, rethinking regulatory boundaries seem to be the most promising means, per MGI's Jan 2015 article.
MGI's chart above suggests, Automotive, Agriculture, Food Processing, Retail and Healthcare sectors are the ones promising upside for overall growth, mainly driven by automation over manual workforce, enhancements in operation and efficiency in sourcing.
Specific to Turkey, while GDP growth is expected to drop by 23%, a lower reduction rate than US, Germany, Mexico and Brazil in MGI's study, Turkey is one of the three in which GDP per capita is expected to improve next to Nigeria and South Africa, with above sectors right on target for the local economy boost.

Cleveland 5, Dodgers 4: How Frustrating
Mike Petriello 07/02/2014	Brian Wilson, Recaps 798 Comments
As far as "pitchers helping themselves" go, I'm not sure you're going to do much better than Clayton Kershaw hitting a homer to break a 0-0 tie while pitching a shutout on Opening Day last year. (Well, recently, anyway. If we're going back into history, Tony Cloninger driving in nine on two homers and a single while pitching a complete game in 1966 is pretty much the best thing ever.) But Hyun-jin Ryu sure did his best today, even though it sure looked like this was going to be a nondescript Dodger loss after he allowed a two-run homer to Ryan Raburn in the fourth inning to open the scoring.
In the bottom of the fifth, Cleveland starter Trevor Bauer, who had more or less been cruising to that point, having allowed only singles to A.J. Ellis and Ryu, retired Scott Van Slyke and Carlos Triunfel around a Miguel Rojas single. Ryu stepped in, and on the second pitch he saw, doubled to left center, scoring Rojas. As Vin Scully repeatedly reminded us, had Bauer merely retired his opposite number on that pitch, he'd have been through the fifth on a tidy 12 pitches. Instead, the floodgates opened. Dee Gordon walked. Ellis walked. With the bases loaded, Andre Ethier — poor, unloved, unproductive Andre Ethier — singled in Ryu and Gordon, putting the Dodgers on top 3-2. Ryu would go on to pitch seven effective innings, making just the one mistake.
But! The bullpen still exists, and you best prepare yourself for a slew of "Brian Wilson is the worrrrrrrrrrrst" reactions from your friends and co-workers, even though that's not, you know, accurate. Yes, he had some tough games early in the season. Yes, a 4.66 ERA entering today looks bad, as though we don't already know that ERA for relievers is useless. Here's the actual facts: in his last 19 games (yes, arbitrary endpoints, though aren't they all?), stretching back six weeks or so, he'd pitched 16.2 innings with an 18/7 K/BB and one single earned run. No, that doesn't mean he's "fixed," no, that doesn't mean he's obviously the right choice, but it does mean that when you hear people talking about cutting him or DFA'ing him or whatever, they're just uninformed.
Not that the eighth inning went well, of course.
From the ESPN game log:
M Brantley walked.
M Brantley stole second.
C Santana walked.
Y Gomes struck out swinging.
D Murphy hit for R Raburn.
D Murphy singled to left, M Brantley scored, C Santana to second, C Santana to third, D Murphy to second on throwing error by left fielder M Kemp.
L Chisenhall intentionally walked.
M Aviles singled to right, C Santana and D Murphy scored, L Chisenhall to second, L Chisenhall to third advancing on throw.
N Swisher hit for B Shaw.
J Howell relieved B Wilson.
M Aviles stole second.
N Swisher struck out looking.
J Kipnis flied out to left.
So there's a lot happening there, of course, namely that walks are bad. (Do note that one was intentional, when you see "3" in the box score.) Neither of the hits were particularly crushed so much as they were well-placed; the throwing error didn't help either, though that's just as much on Carlos Triunfel as it is on Matt Kemp. (Triunfel couldn't be bothered to turn around to look for the throw from the outfield, and could have easily been charged with three errors today, including dropping a great Ellis throw on Aviles' steal, rather than the one he got.) So no, Wilson wasn't good. I'm not pretending he was. Let's just keep some perspective there.
Really, the bigger issue I had was that Wilson was left to pitch as long as he did. J.P. Howell has been outstanding, and he hadn't pitched in a full week, throwing 11 pitches last Wednesday in Kansas City. Michael Brantley is a lefty hitter who isn't great against lefties. Carlos Santana is a switch-hitter who hits all pitchers, though he's slightly better against lefties, so fine. Yan Gomes is a righty with a traditional platoon split. So okay, maybe you give Wilson those three hitters. But David Murphy and Lonnie Chisenhall are lefties with huge difficulties hitting lefties, and it's difficult to understand why Howell wasn't brought in right then and there. I'm really, really hoping that Don Mattingly didn't look at Murphy being 2-5 against Howell — with one of those singles coming in 2008 — and thinking it was a bad fit. I'm terrified that's what it was.
Scott Van Slyke continued his great season by hitting a solo homer to cut the deficit to one in the bottom of the inning, as well as throwing out a runner at the plate earlier in the game, but that just cut the deficit to one.
At least the ninth inning was interesting.
It didn't end up working out, obviously, but the ninth is worth mentioning too. Yasiel Puig flew out to right on what was pretty clearly ball four, and then Cody Allen got Dee Gordon swinging. Down one, Hanley Ramirez hit for Ellis, which I suppose is defensible in that you are down one with two outs and Ramirez is more likely to put the ball out of the park. But of course, Allen isn't dumb, so Ramirez walked, and here's where things became… weird. Ramirez, of course, is not healthy. He clearly isn't able to run at full speed. Yet with only backup catcher Drew Butera on the bench and apparently no interest in calling on a pitcher to run, Mattingly had to leave him in. So when Ethier doubled, watching Ramirez do his best to motor around to third was alternately exhilarating and terrifying. (Mostly the latter.) Unfortunately, with the tying run 90 feet away, Kemp flew out to the warning track in right center to end it. Ramirez' return from his inevitable DL stint has now been pushed back by a day.
We should remember that despite the two bad losses in the last 24 hours just how far the Dodgers have come in the last few weeks. We'd all be thrilled to think they'd be a game out at this point. Things are still looking very good. Of course, they now move on to Colorado, where nothing bad ever happens. How frustrating.

The cast of Educators, which is currently screening on TVNZ on Demand.
Review: Educators is a dark, hilarious take on the brutal existence of a teacher
Sam Brooks | Culture Editor
Sam Brooks reviews Educators, a beautifully morbid and mean-spirited New Zealand comedy about high school teachers.
The daily life of a teacher is a well-trodden one on television. It's not hard to see why: education and school provides a well-known structure, it's a pretty universal experience, and the hardships of being a teacher are well-documented and well-known. The drama's already there; all you've got to do is record it.
On the darker side you've got the early-aughts series Boston Public, about a fictional school that eventually resolves its arts-funding crisis by cutting all sport, basically turning the show into some sort of televisual fantasy. On the lighter side, there are about 50 shows unimaginatively called Teachers and our very own Seven Periods with Mr. Gornsby, inarguably one of our most successful local comedies.
Educators, a new comedy devised by Jackie van Beek (The Breaker-Upperers), Jonny Brugh (What We Do In The Shadows) and Jesse Griffin (Wilson Dixon), splits the difference between the dark and light. Focusing on the lives of a few teachers in an unnamed-but-probably-Auckland school, it's likely the darkest comedy ever to come out of TV production powerhouse South Pacific Pictures.
It's also one of the funniest, thanks largely in part to the performances. Van Beek herself is the MVP here, as she tends to be. Her character Robyn Duffy is an absolute nightmare, the kind of teacher who you would've laughed at when you were in high school, and if you were a parent, the kind of teacher you'd fear your kid being stuck with for a year. She's uninformed, she's unreasonable, and she's wildly inappropriate with the students. In an early scene, she asks her students to write a journal, one that will absolutely be confidential – and then promptly revokes her promise, claiming that the journals need to be marked because they haven't met requirements for the year.
Jackie Van Beek is the undisputable star of Educators.
Van Beek has a way of single-handedly pulling the handbrake on a scene and making it take a right turn into something much weirder and more complex. Whether it's the way she quietly talks under the other characters during scene (simply muttering 'same' when another character says they're divorced, for example) or how she turns normal words into punchlines ('No talk-ing, no laugh-ing' means nothing on paper but is gold coming out of her mouth), Van Beek knows how to play a scene to the hilt. Even though the show has no protagonist, Robyn Duffy becomes one by de facto – or at least the dark, bitter soul of the show – purely through the magnetism of Van Beek's performance.
Even though Van Beek is the undisputed star of the show, she's more than capably supported by the surprisingly large ensemble. Kura Forrester is a typical delight as the overenthusiastic, appropriately heightened drama teacher who wants to do a production of Equus, which I sorely hope we get to see some of in the show. Yvette Parsons captures the middling competence of her fussy receptionist character, filling her with all kinds of oddly specific interiority and quirks.
Putting its cast aside, where Educators stands apart from other local comedies is in how dark, and mean, the show is willing to go. This is a show where teachers laugh about supposed confidential journals, where one teacher pressures another to send him nudes of a student's mother, and where a father violates his custody agreement by signing up as a student at the school so he can see his daughter. These are not likeable human beings, but they're compelling ones.
It's an incredibly tight rope to walk between problematic and funny but by casting the teachers, quite unexpectedly, as the undisputed villains, it manages to do bloody pirouettes upon that tightrope. It's not that teachers – historically overworked, unfathomably underpaid – make natural villains, it's just that we can so easily understand how someone in the education system might be ground down, going from a decent person into a straight-up monster.
A sex education class gone awry on Educators.
The one drawback of the series is the length of its episodes. Each clocks in at roughly at 15 minutes, which falls in the bitter spot of both being too short and too long. It seems that webseries, or at least web-based television (can we just call everything a series now, please?) are increasingly cutting the 22 minute 'half hour' down to a brisk 15 minutes. I'm all for getting rid of arbitrary lengths, but at times Educators feels like it's struggling to fill those 15 minutes, with some scenes trailing off and others stretching a joke well past the punchline. At other times the show juggles multiple subplots, and it feels like time constraints mean some are given unfortunately short shrift.
But most of the time, all 15 of those minutes sing with reckless, dark intelligence. The life of the staff room is well-trodden, yes, but the angry stomps that Educators makes through this familiar territory are hilarious and brutal. If only more New Zealand comedy took risks like this.
The first two episodes of Educators drops today on TVNZ on Demand. You can watch them right here.

Wedding Trends for 2023
[Uncategorized]
By Abby Clissold
As the world continues to adapt and change, so do wedding trends. Here are some of the top trends we predict for 2023 weddings.
Pastels will continue to be popular, with soft shades of pink, blue, and green being particularly trendy.
Bold, vibrant colors will also make a comeback, with couples choosing to make a statement with their wedding color scheme. Think bright reds, oranges, and purples.
Metallics, such as gold and silver, will also be popular choices for adding a touch of glamour to the big day.
Outdoor weddings will continue to be popular, with couples choosing to exchange vows in beautiful natural settings such as gardens, parks, and beaches.
Micro-weddings, or intimate gatherings with a smaller guest list, will also continue to be a trend as couples opt for more personal and intimate celebrations.
Non-traditional venues, such as warehouses, art galleries, and even rooftops, will also be popular choices for couples looking for a unique and memorable setting for their big day.
Simple, elegant dresses with clean lines and minimal embellishments will be popular, as more and more couples opt for a more understated and timeless look.
Lace and other intricate details will still be popular choices for adding a touch of romance to the dress.
Separates, such as a skirt and top combination or a jumpsuit, will also be a trendy choice for brides looking for a more modern and relaxed look.
Wildflower arrangements and bouquets will continue to be popular, with couples choosing more organic and natural looks.
Dried flowers and foliage will also be a trend, as they add texture and interest to arrangements while also being a more eco-friendly option.
Tropical and exotic flowers, such as orchids and birds of paradise, will also be popular choices for adding a touch of drama and sophistication to the big day.
Overall, the trend for 2023 weddings is towards personalization and uniqueness, with couples opting for more intimate gatherings and personalized touches that reflect their personalities and style. Whether you go for a traditional or more non-traditional celebration, the most important thing is to create a day that is meaningful and memorable for you and your partner.

Decline of Kannada Medium Schools: Is It because of English Craze..?
The seven-days long prestigious State Level Girls NSS Camp of Pre-University Colleges with 238 volunteers that had started in St. Lawrence PU College, Moodubelle on 5 November 2013, concluded on the note of unprecedented success on Monday, 11 November 2013.
The road travelled so far and stepping forward with confidence for the future…..


George is now retired, having had a successful dressage career. Always a tricky horse with a speciality in rearing and clapping his front feet together to terrify the opposition into submission, he was a great showman.
His career highlights were winning the Medium Restricted South East Championships, and coming 11th at the National Dressage Championships also at Medium. George was lightly competed at Advanced Medium before retiring.

I have been passionate about cricket and I also follow all major tournaments and keep myself up to date about the sport. I also have an inclination towards art and languages, which has led me to learn Spanish and German. I have now enrolled myself in a course on Broadcast Journalism.
