Foodfight!

Threshold Animation Studios and Lions Gate Family Entertainment are making a trip to the supermarket with the animated epic "Foodfight!". The feature which will include more than 15,000 characters in what may be the largest animated scene ever.The film takes place in a supermarket which comes to life as a city unto itself. The film is being directed by Threshold CEO Lawrence Kasanoff ("True Lies", "Mortal Kombat") from a screenplay by Brent Friedman, Rebecca Swanson and Sean Derek, based on a story by Kasanoff and Joshua Wexler.

Charlie Sheen will voice the lead role of Dex Dogtective, Eva Longoria is Lady X, the leader of the villainous Brand X group Wayne Brady is Daredevil Dan, Christopger Lloyd is Mr. Clipboard and Chris Kattan will be Polar Penguin. They join Hilary and Haylie Duff who provide the voices for Sunshine Goddess and Sweetcakes, respectively.

Utilizing a cast of thousands and myriad CG special effects powered by Threshold’s association with IBM, "Foodfight!" is a world unlike anything seen before. In addition to the unique characters developed for the story - and voiced by the cast of stars - the creators have acquired the rights to include nearly every consumer packaged goods company’s characters as the supermarket comes to life. Included are Mr. Clean, Charlie the Tuna, Twinkie the Kid and hundreds more, who take on the role of supporting background "actors" in the film.

doomsday

"Doomsday," the third feature from British "B"-movie tour de force writer-director Neil Marshall, is a rehash of several distant cult movies, including both of Marshall's previous films, which are also considered cult classics. Yet, that doesn't make "Doomsday" even remotely bad, but it does make it very interesting not just to follow the story along, but to also point out the many references to films past.

Even the most amateurish film buff could point out the assorted references to "28 Days/Weeks Later," "Escape from New York" (1981), "Aliens" (1986), and the "Max Mad" movies. It's all part of the fun, really, and you can't blame Marshall for making references to the movies he loves and have inspired him as a filmmaker. Even his first feature "Dog Soldiers" (2002) and his superior follow-up horror flick "The Descent" (2005) get some mention here.

In the future, an out-of-control virus called the "Reaper virus" (the "28" movies) completely decimates Scotland, eventually leading to its being quarantined off with a 20-foot-tall, 12-inch-thick impenetrable wall ("Escape from New York") on all sides. The rest of the world goes on as if nothing happened, while millions are forced to fend for themselves in the virus-ravaged wasteland of former Scotland. In the the 30 years since the quarantine, law & order broke down and anarchy took over.

30 years later, the Reaper Virus makes a comeback, this time outside the quarantine zone. More news develops when spy satellites monitoring the former Scotland detect human survivors. Could there be uninfected people? Could there be a cure in there somewhere? Regardless, the government organizes a small task force to go inside and find answers. Nelson (Bob Hoskins), a government handler, is given the assignment of having his best operative Eden Sinclair (Rhona Mitra) go inside with a crack team of commandos and look for answers.

They have 48 hours.

Right away, "Doomsday" removes itself from other post-apocalyptic movies by not focusing on the catastrophe itself and instead just focuses on humanity's attempt to move forward. "Doomsday" is about anarchy, and the downfall of society: What happens when you just leave a country to wither and die in the face of disaster? On the inside, however, it's all about finding a cure or a vaccine and bringing it back to the rest of the world. When Sinclair and her team are on the inside, they're all their own, but of course they are not alone. As it turns out, barbaric clans have been formed (the "Mad Max" movies), under the leadership of Sol (Marshall's favorite go-to guy and movie regular, Craig Conway), who seeks to lead his punk regalia-clad minions to the conquest of the free world outside the quarantine zone. It should be pointed out here that they're pretty much cannon fodder ("Aliens").

It's fair to chide "Doomsday" for some script deficiencies and overly-abundant throwback references to films past and an apparent lack of details regarding Scotland's decimation in the 30 years since the Reaper Virus's outbreak, and Sol's rise to power. But Marshall keeps "Doomsday" lean and focused. Once on the inside, it's anything goes, as Sinclair and her teammates are pretty much left to fend for themselves when Sol's men ambush them and force them to participate in increasingly sadistic games of violence for survival and for that, the blood and gore is sufficient (Marshall knows no boundaries in the area of special effects).

"Doomsday" is an accomplished third feature from a provocative filmmaker, Neil Marshall. Though by no means perfect ("The Descent" was and I was feverishly looking for "Doomsday" to surpass it), "Doomsday" is still looking to make a killing at the movies this weekend.

Manila and Caloocan water supply cut for 22 hrs

Water supply for some households in Manila and Caloocan City will have a 22-hour cut-off on Saturday to give way to repairs of busted pipes in the areas.

The water supply interruption will start March 29, from 1 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Maynilad Water Services Inc. (MWSI) in its advisory said the rehabilitation work will entail the insertion of two butterfly valves on existing 400-mm and 500-mm mainlines along Rizal Avenue extension near R. Papa Street in the boundary of Caloocan and Manila.

The rehabilitation of the water pipes will be simultaneous with repair work at the Tondo pumping station in Manila to improve the water supply in underserved areas of Manila and Caloocan.

The parts in Manila affected will be areas bounded by Rizal Avenue, Mayhaligue, E. Remigio, Quezon Boulevard, C.M. Recto, Estero dela Reina, and Dagupan Ext. (railroad), Aurora Boulevard and Blumentritt.

In Caloocan, the areas bounded by 5th Avenue, A. Bonifacio, C-3 Road, Chinese Cemetery, R. Papa (creek) and PNR railroad will be affected.

Meanwhile, the area bounded by Blumentritt, Antipolo, Aurora Boulevard and Dimasalang in Manila will experience low pressure to no water.

MWSI also advised affected customers to store water good for the duration of the water service interruption.

The rehabilitation is in line with mission of the Maynilad's new owners, DMCI and Metro Pacific, to upgrade the water system and improve service throughout the west zone.

Customers may call Maynilad Water Hotlines 1626 or 4362000, or text Maynilad 2898.

Electric Kissing Parties

Some few years ago, a very peculiar kissing custom arose which deserves mention here because, from it, we can learn how to adapt the method to our modem devices. At that time, when young people got together, they held, what was then known as, "electric kissing parties."Young people are ever on ' the outlook for novel ways of entertaining themselves. In fact, when ether was first developed as an anesthetic, the young bloods of the town used to form "ether-sniffing" parties in which they got a perfectly squiffy ether "jag." But to return to the "electric kisses." An excerpt from a contemporary writer will,
perhaps, give us some idea of what happened.

"The ladies and gentlemen range themselves about the room. In leap year the ladies select a partner, and together they shuffle about on the carpet until they are charged with electricity , the lights in the room having been first turned low. Then they kiss in the dark; and make the sparks fly for the amusement of the onlookers."

The same sort of experiment could be performed nowadays, on cold, dry nights when the air is overloaded with electricity. But be certain that neither you nor your partner touches each other after shuffling furiously on the carpet with your feet. Merely lean over slowly and, when your lips are about half an inch apart, slow the process down even more until the spark jumps. However, considerable practice should be had before this kiss variation can be done successfully. The natural reaction to this sort of shock is to pull away from each other. But, try to resist this natural impulse because, if you do not kiss the moment after the shock has been perpetrated, the pleasure will be all gone.

Once you have practiced this for Some time, you will become so innured to the slight shock that you will seek more potent electric shocks. These can be obtained with the use of an electric vibrator or in fact, any device that is worked from a battery and a coil which steps up the weak 3 volts of the battery. Shooting galleries have electricity testing devices of this nature which have two handles. No matter what you use, the method is as following: first you take hold of one pole of the live wire, of the handle of the machine, if that is what you are using. Then, your partner should take hold of the other pole, or handle. This done, bring your lips together until there is about an eighth of an inch separating your lips. At this moment, turn the rheostat that increases the current. As soon as the charge is strong enough, a sudden, intense spark will jump the gap of your lips.
Again, learn not to flinch but to seize hold of the opportunity of bringing your lips together in a grand, climactic kiss. The advantage of this, method is that you can regulate the electrical charges go that, when you become innured to one strength, you can increase the current almost indefinitely.

A word of warning,
however, is apropos here. Be satisfied with the current generated by this battery set. Don't be like a young friend of mine who discovered that the battery set, even at its highest output, was too weak for him and his partner. Being of an experimental nature, he decided to see what would happen were he to use the ordinary house current as the electrical stimulus. And so, together with his partner, he placed himself in front of an electric wall outlet into which he had screwed a plug and a wire whose end had been, frayed so that the two wires were separated. Taking hold of one wire, he advised the girl to take hold of the other., Then, using the usual "electric-kiss" technique, he bent over and started to bring his lips slowly towards the girl's lips. He got as far as about half an inch from her lips, and that's all. Because, a moment later, he saw a blinding flame sear across his eyes and he felt an enormous blow jolt him off his feet. When he came to enough to realize where he was, he found himself asprawl on the floor, his girl friend in a similar position a few feet away. The result was a pair of burned lips and a combined determination to stick to the old fashioned way of kissing. The burned lip will always spurn the flame.

SAVING WATER OUTDOORS

1.

Don't over water your lawn. As a general rule, lawns only need watering every 5 to 7 days in the summer and every 10 to 14 days in the winter. A hearty rain eliminates the need for watering for as long as two weeks. Plant it smart, Xeriscape. Xeriscape landscaping is a great way to design, install and maintain both your plantings and irrigation system that will save you time, money and water. For your free copy of "Plant it Smart," an easy-to-use guide to Xeriscape landscaping, contact your Water Management District.
2.

Water lawns during the early morning hours when temperatures and wind speed are the lowest. This reduces losses from evaporation.
3.

Don't water your street, driveway or sidewalk. Position your sprinklers so that your water lands on the lawn and shrubs ... not the paved areas.
4.

Install sprinklers that are the most water-efficient for each use. Micro and drip irrigation and soaker hoses are examples of water-efficient methods of irrigation.
5.

Regularly check sprinkler systems and timing devices to be sure they are operating properly. It is now the law that "anyone who purchases and installs an automatic lawn sprinkler system MUST install a rain sensor device or switch which will override the irrigation cycle of the sprinkler system when adequate rainfall has occurred." To retrofit your existing system, contact an irrigation professional for more information.
6.

Raise the lawn mower blade to at least three inches. A lawn cut higher encourages grass roots to grow deeper, shades the root system and holds soil moisture better than a closely-clipped lawn.
7.

Avoid over fertilizing your lawn. The application of fertilizers increases the need for water. Apply fertilizers which contain slow-release, water-insoluble forms of nitrogen.
8.

Mulch to retain moisture in the soil. Mulching also helps to control weeds that compete with pants for water.
9.

Plant native and/or drought-tolerant grasses, ground covers, shrubs and trees. Once established, they do not need to be watered as frequently and they usually will survive a dry period without any watering. Group plans together based on similar water needs.
10.

Do not hose down your driveway or sidewalk. Use a broom to clean leaves and other debris from these areas. Using a hose to clean a driveway can waste hundreds of gallons of water.
11.

Outfit your hose with a shut-off nozzle which can be adjusted down to fine spray so that water flows only as needed. When finished, "Turn it Off" at the faucet instead of at the nozzle to avoid leaks.
12.

Use hose washers between spigots and water hoses to eliminate leaks.
13.

Do not leave sprinklers or hoses unattended. Your garden hoses can pour out 600 gallons or more in only a few hours, so don't leave the sprinkler running all day. Use a kitchen timer to remind yourself to turn it off.
14.

Check all hoses, connectors and spigots regularly.
15.

Consider using a commercial car wash that recycles water. If you wash your own car, park on the grass to do so.
16.

Avoid the installation of ornamental water features (such as fountains) unless the water is recycled. Locate where there are mineral losses due to evaporation and wind drift.
17.

If you have a swimming pool, consider a new water-saving pool filter. A single back flushing with a traditional filter uses from l80 to 250 gallons or more of water.

Acne during Pregnancy

Acne during pregnancy is a common problem among women. Pregnant women, especially those in their first trimester of pregnancy, are prone to skin outbreaks. Hormones play a huge role in this occurrence. Even women gifted with clear skin all their life may suffer from acne outbreaks during the first three months of pregnancy. The good thing is, the skin usually clears up as the pregnancy advances towards the second and third trimesters.

Acne during pregnancy cannot be treated the same way as acne occurring in non-pregnant individuals. A doctor should always be consulted because a lot of oral medications can cause harm to the fetus. Topical creams or ointments such as Benzoyl Peroxide and Azelaic Acid are generally safe to apply on the skin of pregnant women. Tetracycline and topical retinoids however should completely be avoided as these have harmful effects.

For severe acne problems, some doctors may prescribe oral erythromycin. It is always best to seek the advice of the doctor prior to using any topical ointments or skin medications. Taking medications during pregnancy is usually associated with serious risks to the fetus. Herbal medicines should likewise be avoided and should be consulted to the physician.

Acne during pregnancy can be caused by higher levels of androgen hormone which triggers the oil glands of the skin to get bigger and to produce more oily substance called sebum. Excessive oil and the shed skin cells lining the hair follicles blocks the skin pores and makes skin susceptible to bacteria. This can lead to inflamed skin and acne outbreak.

Conservative and safer mode of treatment includes hydrating the skin by drinking at least 6 glasses of water per day. Washing the face with lukewarm water and gentle facial soap is also helpful. Make sure to pat the face dry. Do not rub the towel on the delicate skin surface. Never scrub the face as this can cause abrasive injuries to the already inflamed skin.

Acne during pregnancy can be managed well by using mild moisturizers that are oil-free. Choice of make-up should be oil-free as well and it is best to make sure that the products used are labeled noncomedogenic and will not clog pores.

Tips to Reduce Acne for Clearer Skin

A clear and blemish-free skin does not only make a person look good but also boost self-confidence. But because of varying skin types among individuals across different age groups and nationalities, skin care can also vary, sometimes to a great extent. Factors such as genetic, hormonal and lifestyle can cause skin problems. The following tips are helpful in order to reduce acne and achieve clearer skin.

The best way to achieve a clear complexion is to keep face clean. Washing the face after exposure to dust and pollution can be helpful. Using mild soaps or hypoallergenic soaps may be advisable for sensitive skin. It is important to remove make-up with a gentle make-up remover or cleanser prior to going to bed. Sleeping with make-up on is not advisable in caring for the skin. Minimizing the use of heavy make-up allows the skin to rejuvenate itself from the harmful causes of heavy foundation that covers up the skin.

Acne-prone skins can benefit from cleansing the face with dermatologist-tested and hypoallergenic facial solution. Using a medically-proven product that suits the skin well and prevents it from breaking out is ideal instead of trying out different skin care products that may just harm the skin. It is important to know that not all individuals have the same skin types and resilience. A skin-care product that works for one person may produce unpleasant side effects to another. To reduce acne, it is better to be careful with the products that are being applied to the skin.

Diet modification is also helpful towards achieving beautiful skin and to reduce acne. Proper management of oily and fatty foods in the diet is extremely important for individuals with skin types that are prone to acne break-outs. This is not only good for the health but it also reduces the oil that is extracted through the skin that can cause skin problems.

Depending upon the severity of acne, topical creams such as Azelaic creams and Benzoyl Peroxide may be administered with proper instructions from a dermatologist. Other treatment options such as oral skin care medications and antibiotic treatments may be advised as necessary. Adequate sleep and proper hydration are also practical tips to reduce acne.

Water Conservation - Save Water Indoors

SAVING WATER INDOORS

1.

Never put water down the drain when there may be another use for it such as watering a plant or garden, or cleaning.
2.

Verify that your home is leak-free, because many homes have hidden water leaks. Read your water meter before and after a two-hour period when no water is being used. If the meter does not read exactly the same, there is a leak.
3.

Repair dripping faucets by replacing washers. If your faucet is dripping at the rate of one drop per second, you can expect to waste 2,700 gallons per year which will add to the cost of water and sewer utilities, or strain your septic system.
4.

Check for toilet tank leaks by adding food coloring to the tank. If the toilet is leaking, color will appear within 30 minutes. Check the toilet for worn out, corroded or bent parts. Most replacement parts are inexpensive, readily available and easily installed. (Flush as soon as test is done, since food coloring may stain tank.)
5.

Avoid flushing the toilet unnecessarily. Dispose of tissues, insects and other such waste in the trash rather than the toilet.
6.

Take shorter showers. Replace you showerhead with an ultra-low-flow version. Some units are available that allow you to cut off the flow without adjusting the water temperature knobs.
7.

Use the minimum amount of water needed for a bath by closing the drain first and filling the tub only 1/3 full. Stopper tub before turning water. The initial burst of cold water can be warmed by adding hot water later.
8.

Don't let water run while shaving or washing your face. Brush your teeth first while waiting for water to get hot, then wash or shave after filling the basin.
9.

Retrofit all wasteful household faucets by installing aerators with flow restrictors.
10.

Operate automatic dishwashers and clothes washers only when they are fully loaded or properly set the water level for the size of load you are using.
11.

When washing dishes by hand, fill one sink or basin with soapy water. Quickly rinse under a slow-moving stream from the faucet.
12.

Store drinking water in the refrigerator rather than letting the tap run every time you want a cool glass of water.
13.

Do not use running water to thaw meat or other frozen foods. Defrost food overnight in the refrigerator or by using the defrost setting on your microwave.
14.

Kitchen sink disposals require lots of water to operate properly. Start a compost pile as an alternate method of disposing food waste instead of using a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals also can add 50% to the volume of solids in a septic tank which can lead to malfunctions and maintenance problems.
15.

Consider installing an instant water heater on your kitchen sink so you don't have to let the water run while it heats up. This will reduce heating costs for your household.
16.

. Insulate your water pipes. You'll get hot water faster plus avoid wasting water while it heats up.
17.

Never install a water-to-air heat pump or air-conditioning system. Air-to-air models are just as efficient and do not waste water.
18.

Install water softening systems only when necessary. Save water and salt by running the minimum amount of regenerations necessary to maintain water softness. Turn softeners off while on vacation.
19.

Check your pump. If you have a well at your home, listen to see if the pump kicks on and off while the water is not in use. If it does, you have a leak.
20.

When adjusting water temperatures, instead of turning water flow up, try turning it down. If the water is too hot or cold, turn the offender down rather than increasing water flow to balance the temperatures.
21.

If the toilet flush handle frequently sticks in the flush position, letting water run constantly, replace or adjust it.

DA to tap church groups in rice distribution

Agriculture Secretary Arthur Yap announced on Saturday a plan to tap religious groups in distributing rice sourced from the National Food Authority (NFA).

Yap in an interview on the program "Para Sa 'Yo Bayan" aired over radio dzMM said he will be meeting with some church-based and civic groups next week to iron the details of the plan asking them to help distribute NFA rice to their members.

“If we will increase the supply of NFA rice in the market it would be via faith-based group and not in the traditional distribution. It should be specialized and controlled,” Yap explained.

He said this way, the allocation of rice supply to the public will be regulated.

NFA administrator Jessup Navarro meanwhile said they have already apprehended more than 300 rice retailers for several violations, such as overpricing, hoarding and rice diversion.

Navarro said they are now monitoring closely how the NFA rice is being sold to the public by various retailers in the market.

Yap reiterated that there is no rice shortage, saying that the hike in rice prices has been triggered by several factors including the cost of the rice production.

“It is true that if the market is flooded (with rice supply), there is a tendency that the price goes down but it will not go down any further that it would not reflect the true production cost,” Yap said.

He said this is why he is appealing to the public to separate the issue of supply from the price of rice.

Yap said they are now purging the list of accredited NFA rice retailers to further regulate the distribution of the staple grain to the public.

He also revealed another irregularity: even though some of the retailers have already died they remain on the list of retailers of the NFA.

Yap also admitted that the country has yet to be self-sufficient in rice production as the Philippines is still importing 10 percent of the commodity.

“The country is not self-sufficient. We are only 90 percent in rice production,” he said.

For his part, Robert Hernandez, president of the Asosasyon ng Industriya ng Bigas (ANIB), said the news of a rice shortage was triggered by speculations of some big businessmen due to the shortage in the international market.

“There is no rice crisis. While it is true that there is a shortage in the international market, locally there is no shortage,” Hernandez said.

To help the government regulate rice distribution, Hernandez said they are policing their ranks and reporting to the government some members who have been engaged in rice diversion.

ANIB has more than 30,000 rice retailers and distributors nationwide.

Lohan to portray Manson cult girl in new movie

US actress Lindsay Lohan is to portray one of the cult followers loyal to convicted murderer Charles Manson, in a new movie called "Manson Girls," US media reported on Thursday.

E! News said it had learned Lohan, 21, would star as Nancy Pitman in the movie, produced by Brad Wyman of Junction Films.

"Yes, I am doing it with Lindsay," Wyman told E! News.

Pitman was a teenage runaway who fled her wealthy home in Malibu, California at age 16 to join the followers of Manson, who is now 73 and serving a life sentence for first-degree murder.

Four other defendants were also convicted with Manson for the shocking and gruesome 1969 murders of several people including pregnant actress Sharon Tate.

Pitman stayed at the Manson ranch instead of accompanying the Manson crew that went to the house and committed the murders, though she is believed to have accompanied Manson there later to tamper with the scene.

Manson was initially sentenced to die for his crimes but the sentence was commuted to life in prison after California courts abolished the death penalty.

His 11th appeal for parole was rejected in May 2007.

Lohan also plays the girlfriend of Beatles' singer John Lennon's killer Mark David Chapman in the upcoming film "Chapter 27."

Lohan, the onetime child star of Disney's "Parent Trap," spent time in rehab in 2007 for drug and alcohol abuse. She told Elle magazine in a 2006 interview: "Yeah, I have a dark side. I watched all those videos on Charles Manson for a while."

Positive and Negative Effects of Benzoyl Peroxide

Benzoyl Peroxide is commonly used to treat acne. It has a formulation of two parts benzoyl and one part peroxide. It is used topically to treat acne and is generally found to be effective. However, its efficacy varies from person to person. The use of benzoyl peroxide is also governed by some precautions.

Benzoyl Peroxide is considered a strong beaching agent but is found to be effective in treating mild to moderate acne problems. For sensitive skin, a 2.5% concentration in gel form is available. It also comes in a more concentrated form of 10%. Both concentrations are found to be effective in treating acne.

The benefits include effective treatment of acne via topical application by drying them out. Benzoyl peroxide is also an effective antiseptic and can effectively reduce bacteria in the surface of the skin. This is an important function in controlling and reducing acne and skin breakouts. It is also an oxidizing agent which is necessary for the skin to remain healthy and young-looking. Another positive function is its anti-inflammatory property. This function aids in the healing process of acne reducing the risks and spread of infection to other parts of the skin.

Benzoyl peroxide when used in large amounts can cause skin dryness. Dry skin is not a positive result that is why caution should be observed when applying this medication to areas with acne. It is better to use a small amount first during the initial application and gradually progress to avoid skin irritation. If dryness and scaling occurs, a light and oil-free moisturizer can be applied to the affected area.

This acne medication can also trigger allergic reactions to certain skin types. Caution should be observed during application. If any signs of allergic reactions are observed, it is better to wash the affected area with cold water and discontinue use of benzoyl peroxide.

During application of benzoyl peroxide to acne-affected areas, it is better to avoid the sensitive parts of the face such as the mouth, eyes and inside of the nose. In case of contact to these sensitive parts of the face, wash the areas with cold water immediately to avoid unpleasant skin reactions.
