The Little Thief: So-so personality picture of the title lass, a disassociated, amoral adolescent floating through life in postwar France. If she comes off as a girl Antoine Doinel, it's since the original tale was co-written by Francois Truffuut, who was allegedly preparing to film this at the time of his demise. Cast includes Charlotte Gainsbourg, Didier Bezace, Simon de la Brosse, Nathalie Cardone, and Raoul Billerey. (104 minutes, 1989)

Track of the Cat: Tennessee Williams meets American mid-evil in this unusually abrasive drama in regards to a home filled with bitterness, remorse, and envy, and how the search for a killer cougar changes the dynamics of the family. Cast includes Teresa Wright, Tab Hunter, Diana Lynn, Beulah Bondi, Philip Tonge, William Basket, and Carl (Alfalfa) Switzer. (102 minutes, 1954)

Rambo: Much better than part II, this one continues to be firmly footed in the genre of mindless action films, as our brawny idol goes behind Russian battle lines in Afghanistan to save his buddy from a prison fortress. You will see lots of eruptions to keep the action going and some funny stuff thrown in too. Cast includes Sylvester Stallone, Richard Crenna, Marc de Jonge, Kurtwood Smith, Spiros Focas, and Sasson Gabai. (101 minutes, 1988)

Reckless: It's Christmas Eve, and a ditsy, seemingly cheerful spouse (Farrow) is informed by her abruptly regretful husband that he has taken out a contract on her life. A conceivably smart spoof of middle-style domestic relationships and fake holiday praise swiftly descends into a roaming, completely absurd comedy of the ridiculous. Cast includes Mia Farrow, Scott Glenn, Mary-Louise Parker, Tony Goldwyn, Stephen Dorff, Eileen Brennan, and Giancarlo Esposito. (92 minutes, 1995)

AI Artificial Intelligence: In the near future, scientist Hurt and his team create a highly advanced android child who might experience feelings, containing love. His adoption by a nice couple who have lost a child is riddled with complications. This enthralling tale draws us in, thanks in part to Osment's magnificent performance. Cast includes Haley Joel Osment, Jude Law, Frances O'Connor, Brendan Gleeson, Sam Robards, William Hurt, Jake Thomas, Ken Leung, Michael Mantell, and Adrian Grenier. (145 minutes, 2001)

The Littlest Horse Thieves: A well-made Disney period piece film made in England, in reference to 3 kids' attempts to spare ponies who work the mines from neglect and mistreatment. Set at the turn of the century. Cast includes Alastair Sim, Peter Barkworth, Maurice Colbourne, Susan Tebbs, Andrew Harrison, and Chloe Franks. (104 minutes, 1977)

Prince of Darkness: The anti-Christ entombs the evil child of Satan in a canister of a forgotten about L.A. temple. It's up to pastor Pleasance and the grad students of Prof Wong to tidy up the mess. They must stop the religious sect attempting to free this child named the "Brotherhood of Rest." Cast includes Donald Pleasance, Lisa Blount, Jameson Parker, Victor Wong, Dennis Dun, Susan Blanchard, Anne Howard and Alice Cooper Panavision. R (110 minutes, 1987)

Man of a Thousand Faces: A surprisingly devoted, well acted biography of megastar Lon Chaney. Cagney as Chaney, Malane as upset first spouse, and Greer as a spouse who brings him cheerfulness, all perform well. Cast includes James Cagney, Darothy Malane, Jane Greer, Marjorie Rambeau, Jim Backus, Jeanne Cagney, Rabert J. Evans, Jack Albertsan, and Rebuff Pallard. (122 minutes, 1957)

Tracks: Hopper chaperones the lifeless body of a Vietnam friend across the nation by train, but eventually goes bonkers. Cast includes Dennis Hopper, Taryn Power, Dean Stockwell, Topa Swope, Michael Emil, and Zack Norman. (90 minutes, 1976)

Overcome Your Fear Of Public Singing - Karaoke

By Jackie Cummings

Are you afraid of public karaoke performance? Before you start singing, you must: Memorize your songs - Discover the tune, the language, and practise the actions you are going to use. It is also really essential to learn and know precisely where to come in at the opening of the song.

Sleep - Get lots of rest the night before you perform.

Singing - Rest your voice on the day of your public presentation but make sure you warm it up the right way before you perform.

Eating - Make sure that you don't drink fizzy drinks or ice drinks before you sing. Same goes with milk, yoghurt, cream, ice cream, cheese etc. This is not at all advising that you should avoid taking these foods altogether. Just be careful that when you have to perform certain foods can interfere with your singing. It is a superb idea to eat a couple of hours before you have to perform in order to permit the food to digest. It is no fun trying to sing on a full stomach. Some people wait until after they perform to eat, but I wouldn't advise this. First reason is that you need the vigor to be able to sing well. I have also found that it's better to eat before you sing because it will help to keep your anxiety at a more manageable level. If you don't eat you will become even more worried and unable to control the anxiety.

Breathing - Deep ventilation is suggested to facilitate you with performance anxiousness. The more you sing the simpler it gets. Still, this does not happen with everyone. Some individuals proceed to battle with anxiousness. The fundamental thing you want to remember is to never give up. Don't let the fearfulness stop you from doing what you enjoy.

Dress to impress - When you are going to perform make sure that you dress fitly. It is better to be over dressed than under dressed.

Make up - Stage lights can make a person look washed out or really sick. So a bit of coloring will help you to avoid this. Age appropriate make up please!

Hair - Make it look special!

Warm up your voice before you sing - Do your vocal drills, breathing and warm ups.

Arrive on time - You could get disqualified or a replacment might be found if you are late.

Smile - As soon as you walk on stage you have set about your performance. Put your shoulder joints back and smile confidently.

Enjoy yourself - Masses will savour your public presentation more if you are involved in what you are singing.

Mistakes - If you happen to make a mistake pretend as though nothing happened and keep working. Don't say sorry, whoops, wind your eyeballs or commence laughing. Most individuals won't have a clue that you have made a fault.

Acknowledge and put across the content of the song - During performance it is very powerful to commune the message or story behind the song. Dont just stand like a statue. Learn about your character. Practice this at home when you sing your songs. If you do not practice beforehand you will not be able to make it materialise on the day of your performance.

Applause - Stand and accept the applause as it's being given and then walk off the stage. Constantly make sure that you hold off until the music ends before you depart. Remember that walking on and off stage are several important parts of your performance.

Reward yourself - After singing try not to think about the negatives. A performance is rarely perfect in every last way. Don't grant faults or disappointments halt you from singing once more. A person who never makes any faults doesn't do anything. - 23815

Karaoke Music: The Empty Orchestra

By Aaron McLain

The word Karaoke is a portmanteau, a word that is used broadly that is blended from two or more words to mean one thing: empty orchestra. This word comes from the Japanese. It's a way of entertainment for amateur singers.

Karaoke is a way to pretend your something that your not. It is a way to sing along to recorded music, sing your heart out, and pretend that you are a rock star. The basic setup is to sing along to recorded music, but an advance setup comes with music video, microphone, and a stage setup like a concert.

There are many different Karaoke songs. Basically Karaoke is a piece of music that is stripped of its lyrics. The lyrics are placed on a screen for a singer to sing. To keep the singer on track, there is usually a bouncing ball or symbol that goes along with the music. It let's them know when to start and stop each verse of the song.

Karaoke is not only for amateurs. It has been around as long as recording of music. When it's not practical for a full band or orchestra, many professional singers will use a recording of their hit music. They then sing live, not lip sing, their song.

Who first created karaoke? Well, their have been some disputes as to who created this form of singing. One story goes that Daisuke Inoue created the first ever karaoke machine in Japan in 1971. Then it spread to other parts of Asia in the 1980s as it rose in popularity.

Karaoke is everywhere. In Japan it is used to entertain dinner guests. In Korea you can rent out a karaoke room for you and your friends. This room is decked out with all the latest karaoke gizmos. Big screen TV, high tech karaoke machine, state of the art sound system, all rapped in a sound proof room.

Karaoke technology consists of a few basic components. You have the music player, the microphone input, a way to alter the pitch of the music, and an audio output. The most common machines are the CD+G, DVD player with microphone input jack, VCD, and Laser Disc. - 23815

Music and Messages On Hold: A Powerful Combo at Your Fingertips

By Tim Holdon

Music and Messages On Hold can be used very effectively to enhance your marketing and branding efforts.

A friend of mine is the director of a school for the arts that specializes in "unlocking the creative energy and talent in those who are right-brained and who wish to pursue the arts". She has also written a book on understanding right-brain intelligence and gifting. On the frontispiece, she quotes Albert Einstein, "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift."

It takes all types of people to "make the world go 'round", and the business world is no exception. "Right-brain creatives", "left-brain rationalists", and everyone in-between seem to have their place. While some people may be more strongly disposed toward one or the other way of seeing the world, most of us probably fall somewhere in the middle. None of us is entirely devoid of the alternate thinking style; even the most logic-driven analysts have emotions and some capacity for appreciating the "whimsical", all of their "rational" denial notwithstanding. Conversely, even the most fanciful "artiste" possesses some sense of logic, dormant though it may be. Chances are, you have a varied mix of "types" calling your business or organization on the telephone every day. Your music and messages on-hold are the perfect vehicle for reaching this diverse audience.

Music appeals to the emotions. Messages - i.e. words - are capable of moving in areas of rational precision and specificity from which music and emotions seem forever barred. At the same time, words can appeal to the emotions as well. In fact, both music and words can impact the emotions in ways the other cannot. Curiously, the actual structure of music is packed full of logic and mathematics, even as its end result can be a mysterious, almost magical manipulation of the emotions or the opening of doors into other worlds of the imagination. Together, music and words (messages) are powerful tools you can easily use to impact the people who call you while they are waiting on hold. - 23815

Access To Watch Sports TV On Computer Free

By Chris Bishop

It's well-documented that Americans are heavy users of the internet and that it has become the de facto source of information for the majority of them. Those surveyed would also pick internet over TV. Then again, Internet streaming video, virtually the sole alternative to traditional television, brings both. It already accounts for a quarter of total television viewership, dwarfing paid downloads, VOD (video on demand) and mobile viewing. Yes, Free TV on PC is on its way, big time!

Actually, Internet TV is nothing new. It's just that supporting infrastructure had not been in its favor in the early days. Conditions have advanced by heaps by now: broadband access, power PCs, super-sized storage and open hardware, software and networking. On top of it, internet user base volume has also long surpassed the critical mass level. The web is clearly rich for the picking by many an industry, not least Television.

Different kinds of television are distributed over the internet nowadays and the few most notable ones are Internet TV (ITV), Internet Protocol TV (IPTV), Broadband TV and User Generated Content TV (UGC TV). To broadly distinguish among themselves; ITV is free open-format video streaming, IPTV is closed and usually require set-top boxes governed under pay-per-view or subscription structure, Broadband TV is much like ITV with extended real-time interactive capabilities such as messaging, on-demand media, images and UGC TV are basically free-style individual short clips such as the immensely popular YouTube.

The appeal of distributing television programming through the internet is unquestionable. Take Watch TV On PC for instance. From the providers' standpoint, it's inexpensive, quick-to-market, has boundless reach and advertising revenue potential or is just simply good advertising itself. For the viewers, the benefits are even more clear-cut, with it being free of charge, global, extensive variety and the ultimate combo of the two greatest favorites, TV and Internet.

Having TV on PC is not only practical, it is also logical. Considering the occupation of time by each separately in modern lifestyle, it's arguably synergistic to have them in a two-in-one set-up. Not that the required infrastructure and other necessities are not already in place anyway, exception is a home nowadays in the first and developing world without a PC hooked up to broadband internet.

Having that said, the sheer volume and choice of raw free TV On PC can be overwhelming but the solution to this have been quick to emerge. How else but ......? Since the television programming is viewed through the PC, it's almost automatic that computer software program would be employed to control and organize the access, download and watching of Sports On Computer. There is a handful of proprietary software retailing on the net that do an excellent job of it and as free TV on PC evolve, these software would only get better. - 23815
