Don't you wish you could undo the past 52 seconds of your life you just wasted watching this?

Well tough.

You can't. No amount of Z key bashing can erase the image of a strange man doing very little - and doing it right on your own PC screen where you should feel safe from being abused by such nonsense and ridicule.

Anyway - shouldn't you be worried instead about trying to undo the past 10 years of your life, back to a time when words like 'potential' and 'opportunity' meant something to you rather than just sounding like cliche and callous terms your manager would say?

P.S. - the escape key won't work in real life either. (Less)

http://www.a3film.com - Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates! And then there’s Hermione, simmering with jealousy but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

Xcorps Action Sports Show #20.) "XPO" - seg.4 and 5 - This high rolling Xcorps episode doses the viewer with host Eric Ducharme riding the rare Randal motorized skateboard and features a cool Xsports event called the Extreme XPO all powered by new music and video from one of our favorite bands - Primus.
The show opens with a skate jam at a local Encinitas Ca parking lot with Eric The X Guru fueling up the unique Randal mid engine motor board. Not sold in stores and with only 60 made in 1995 by Randal, known for their high speed skate trucks, this rare board rocks with a 27 cc shaft drive motor, centrifugal clutch and Randal skate trucks. Great on board POV shots here as Eric demo rides this very cool board wide open. Hear how he rates the rig.
Next the show rolls back in time to 1997 to the Del Mar California fairgrounds and an event produced by the X Guru called the Extreme XPO. This huge indoor/outdoor Xfest illustrates our producers were way ahead of the times by featuring sports like mountain boarding, freestyle BMX with Ryan Nyquist on his Haro along with half pipe action on inline skates, bikes and boards and even a few words from host Jason Lazo at the start of his on camera TV career. Check a wacky pack race around the track with pocket bikes, 4 man Go Peds, Rollercycles, Fly bikes and Eric on a mini cart. Nice style Xman. Freestyle races rule especially with a mixed bag like this!
After that Eric intros a new video from our friends at RIVE with new Primus recorded live November 2004 at Chicagos Aragon Ballroom. Good to see Primus back onstage again.
After the break Primus returns with more live video from their Hallucino-Genetics tour and a performance of the song Pudding Time backed by shots from local Encinitas skate jammers who can stick their moves. Meanwhile the XGURU takes a few more gas powered runs on his classic Randal motor board.
The show wraps with some comedy from Primus and a theatrical look at band member Les Claypool in the year 2065 talking about their Woodstock 1994 gig!
Additional music from the band Collective Soul and their CD Youth. TRT - 29:30 1/2005 J.S. Edmondson Closed Captioned.

© 2008.

Jack, a delinquent teenage boy, runs away in hopes of reuniting with Jesse, the gay father Jack hasn’t spoken to in seven years. Jack’s timing couldn’t be worse. To the shock of his father and his father’s partner, Connor, the boy shows up in the middle of their marriage proposal. Even more shocking, both Connor and Jack didn’t know the other existed. The party transforms into a true Dynasty moment as Connor and Jack storm out in opposite directions.

Torn between the two, Jesse doesn’t know whom to go to first. The couple’s snarky best friend, Patrick, takes charge. He shoos Jesse after Connor and then rushes after the boy himself. Patrick’s love for his friends, his pity for the confused boy before him, and the “blunt” Jack pulls from his backpack all help Patrick convince the boy to stay. Meanwhile, Jesse is less successful. Connor packs a bag and goes… across the street to stay with the neighbor, Dale.

Tense weeks go by as Jesse and Jack try to rebuild their relationship. However, even as father and son make progress, Jesse can’t seem to patch things up with Connor. The couple continues to drift further and further apart.

Dale watches as Connor acquires a glut of new habits – going days without bathing, strewing trash, and drinking continuously – until he can’t take anymore. Dale teams up with Patrick (a la I Love Lucy) to step in, intervene, and accelerate the healing process.

The plan works! The couple reunites, Jack gets back on track, wedding arrangements are made, and everyone blends into one big happy family. Until… There’s a knock at the door. It’s two weeks before the ceremony, and the son’s girlfriend, Cara, is standing there. Scared, alone, and VERY pregnant. At this pivotal moment, can this group of gay men convince the straight boy to “man up”? Will the coming baby get more presents than the happy couple? And, more importantly, can Jesse endure his new title: Grandpa?

What makes Timing unique is that it is based on actual events from the author’s life. This personal touch strikes a chord of realism while remaining laugh-out-loud funny. You walk away feeling like you know the characters personally, just like the author. (Less)

Xcorps Action Sports Show #1.) "INVERT" - seg.3 - This inaugural episode opens with host and X Corps member Jason Lazo in Los Angeles at Maverick Records picking up the music and videos for this fast paced show called "Invert".

Check the shots on the walls! After that Jason and the X Corps girls are back in Irvine California at the Invert Carnival where insane Moto X pro's from the "Metal Mulisha" are going huge! Then at the half pipe a BMX rider does a huge "Superman" and s*xy X Corps host Roslyn Bradle gets mobbed by autograph seekers. Go Roz baby! Jason and Roz then preview the new Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 video game. Pretty cool game action footage here from Activision - the makers of the game - cut to music from the game soundtrack featuring the bands "Sum 41", "Pennywise", "Papa Roach", "Soul Hooligan", "Drowning Pool", "Ozomatli" and others to keep things rolling hard! Video clips, sound bytes and advise from Tony Hawk who also talks about PAIN and what the word means to him. Then more invert action with Jason talking to pro skater Scott Taylor from Activision about Tony and the new skate game. Jason intro's the new song and video "Cadillac" from the band "Mest". It's all about the music, cars and girls on the beach in this fun video. After the break Jason and Roslyn open an extreme water ski segment called "The Waters Edge" produced by The Gary Paul Agency and shot on 35mm film during a trans U.S. tour. See wild bare foot ski jumping, wake and knee boarding, water hand stands, stilt skiing, boom ski wars and an Elvis museum tour all cut to music from the "Outcast" song "Bombs over Baghdad". Timely. After that X Corps hosts Bob Woodard and Eric "Big Air" Ducharme demo some new products - The "Hammerhead" skateboard and the "Blade Z XTR" electric scooter, products just now hitting the streets. Great music by "Drowning Pool" here too. After the break Jason and Fred Croshal are back at Maverick Records for a "Maverick Minute" previewing the new song and video from Marilyn Manson "Tainted Love". See tour schedules for other Maverick bands here too. After that in the "Coming Soon" segment of the show are scenes from the new mountain board video "Flirt With Dirt" and the new "Flowlab" skateboard. Very cool. The show wraps with more big moves and Jason and Roz back at the Invert Carnival and a promise of more intense action and music coming up on the next episode of "The X Corps". Additional music by the bands "Sum 41", "Pennywise" and "Outkast". You can relax now. 12/2001 TRT - 29:30.

Terra Madre è un progetto concepito da Slow Food, frutto del suo percorso di crescita e che oggi ha il suo fulcro nella convinzione che “mangiare è un atto agricolo e produrre è un atto gastronomico”. Da sempre Slow Food si è schierato per i piaceri della tavola e il buon cibo e ha difeso le culture locali di fronte alla crescente omogeneizzazione imposta dalle logiche cosiddette moderne di produzione, distribuzione ed economia di scala. Ed è proprio seguendo fino in fondo queste logiche che Slow Food si è reso conto di quanto fosse necessario proteggere e sostenere i piccoli produttori, ma anche cambiare il sistema che li danneggia, mettendo insieme gli attori che hanno potere decisionale: consumatori, istituti di formazione, chef e cuochi, enti di ricerca agricola, organizzazioni non governative... Divenne evidente che si poteva avere un impatto significativo solo moltiplicando e cumulando azioni locali che seguissero una visione-guida globale.

Così è nata Terra Madre: per dare voce e visibilità ai contadini, pescatori e allevatori che popolano il nostro mondo. Per aumentare, nelle comunità dei produttori e nell’opinione pubblica, la consapevolezza di quanto è prezioso il loro lavoro. Per dare ai produttori qualche arma in più per continuare a lavorare in condizioni migliori, per il bene di tutti noi e del pianeta. Per queste ragioni, costruire una rete mondiale – che disponesse di strumenti di condivisione delle informazioni e che offrisse la possibilità di imparare dalle esperienze altrui e di collaborare con gli altri – è sembrato fondamentale. Il nostro obiettivo è continuare ad avere terre fertili, dove germoglino e crescano piante e animali adatti a quei particolari ambienti, piuttosto che dopati con sostanze chimiche che li fanno fruttare o ingrassare artificialmente. Il nostro obiettivo è continuare ad avere persone che custodiscono terre, saperi e cibi che hanno il gusto della nostra infanzia.

La rete di Terra Madre è stata lanciata nella riunione inaugurale del 2004 a Torino. Quel primo incontro ha radunato 5000 produttori da 130 paesi e ha attirato – come mai prima di allora – l’attenzione dei media sulle loro problematiche. La seconda edizione dell’incontro internazionale si è tenuta nel 2006 e ha coinvolto anche 1000 cuochi – dai più celebri ai più semplici –, tutti profondamente consapevoli delle responsabilità nei confronti dei produttori di qualità. Nel 2006 hanno partecipato alla riunione generale anche 400 ricercatori e accademici, nel tentativo di riavvicinare la teoria alle buone pratiche.

Un progetto così ambizioso non si sarebbe mai potuto realizzare senza il contributo di un gruppo di sostenitori molto motivati. Slow Food ha mobilitato istituzioni pubbliche, enti locali, regionali e nazionali per formare insieme la Fondazione Terra Madre. L’associazione ha anche favorito partnership con compagnie private e reti solidali, alcune delle quali si sono costituite appositamente per l’evento.

Terra Madre is a project conceived by Slow Food, the philosophy of which evolved over the the organization’s history and crystallized at its realization that “eating is an agricultural act and producing is a gastronomic act.” Slow Food had always stood for the pleasures of the table, for the importance of good-tasting food, and for the defense of cultures facing growing homogenization as a result of today’s so-called modern rationales regarding production, distribution, and economies of scale. It was where these “rationales” were leading that brought Slow Food to realize the need to protect and support small producers, and to change the systems that put them in danger by bringing together those players with decision-making power: consumers, educational institutions, chefs and cooks, agricultural research entities, NGOs, etc. It became clear that it is only through repeated, cumulative, local action, following a guiding global vision, that a significant impact can be achieved.

Thus Terra Madre was born: To give voice and visibility to the rural food producers who populate our world. To raise their awareness, as well as that of the population at large, of the value of their work. To sustain their ability to work under the best conditions, for all of our good and for the good of the planet. For these reasons, constructing a global network—with information-sharing tools, the means to learn from each other, and opportunities for collaboration in many ways—seemed invaluable. We must continue to have fertile lands, lands on which sprout and grow plants and animals appropriate to those environments, rather than needing to be pumped full of chemicals to make them thrive artificially. And we must also continue to have the people capable of stewarding these lands, to have their know-how, so we can have food that still carries the tastes of our youth.

The inaugural gathering of Terra Madre launched the network in 2004 in Torino, and was on an unprecedented scale. This first edition brought together 5000 producers from 130 countries and shone global media attention on their crisis. The second edition was in 2006, and incorporated an additional 1000 cooks, from renowned to modest, but all aware of their role relative to high-quality food producers. Also in attendance were 400 researchers and academics, seeking to bridge the theory of their work with hands-on practice.
A project of this scope could never have come into being without a dedicated core of partners. Slow Food rallied public institutions as well as local, regional, and national bodies to collectively form the Terra Madre Foundation, further partnering with private companies and numerous like-minded networks, some of which were established specially for the event.
