The third Rodgers & Hammerstein Broadway hit to go before the cameras, The King and I boasts a career-making performance from Yul Brynner, repeating his stage triumph as the titular monarch and proving to moviegoers that bald can be beautiful. It's Brynner's proud king that provides the fulcrum to the plot, and it's Brynner himself, with his piercing gaze and graceful physicality, that demands our attention. The story line, adapted from an earlier, nonmusical stage hit, follows widowed English teacher Anna Leonowens (Deborah Kerr) to her new posting as tutor to the Siamese king's formidable mob of children. The collision of East and West affords its winning mixture of drama and humor, and the warm friendship that grows between the king and the patrician teacher provides a poignant, unfulfilled romance between the two wary protagonists. Into this framework, the composers insert a superb score, echoing Asian motifs, as well as a bouquet of lovely songs including "Hello, Young Lovers," "Shall We Dance," and two ensemble pieces for Anna and the royal children ("Getting to Know You" and "I Whistle a Happy Tune") that suggest prototypes for Rodgers & Hammerstein's later hit, The Sound of Music. For this 1956 production, 20th Century Fox lavished stereophonic sound, widescreen cinematography, intricate production design, and stunning sets. Technically, this newly mastered THX version is the best-looking and -sounding King yet to hit video, but in its full-frame, pan-and- scan version the formatting downsizes far too much of the splendor, losing some sharpness to the imagery. For viewing on all but the smallest screens, the widescreen edition is vastly superior. But, in either version, the glorious music is reason enough to hit "play." --Sam Sutherland

For Norman and Ethel Thayer this summer On Golden Pond is filled with conflict and resolution. When their daughter Chelsea arrives the family is forced to renew the bonds of love and overcome the generational friction that has existed for years. Norman must find his way through his anger and fear of growing old while Chelsea struggles to rebuild their relationship. Ethel's consistent support of her "knight in shining armor" is inspirational in its simplicity. This is a movie to ponder and always keep in your heart.System Requirements:Starring: Dabney Coleman Henry Fonda Jane Fonda Katherine Hepburn William Lanteau and Doug McKeon. Directed By: Mark Rydell. Running Time: 105 Min. Color. This film is presented in "Widescreen" format. Copyright 2003 Artisan Entertainment.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA Rating: PG UPC: 012236147817 Manufacturer No: 14781
Writer Ernest Thompson, who came up with the original stage play of On Golden Pond and adapted it for film, is lucky to have two giants of the screen give dignity and breadth to his sometimes trite dialogue. Henry Fonda, in his last role, plays a prickly English professor at the disagreeable age of 80. Visiting his summer house by a Maine lake with his wife (Katharine Hepburn), the old man forges an unlikely bond with a lonely boy, comes to terms with his daughter (Jane Fonda), and suffers disorienting effects of mild dementia. Even playing a tired old man, Fonda is an absolute lion of a movie star, and Hepburn brings her special spirit to the part of his worried bride. The onscreen relationship between Henry and Jane Fonda naturally makes one think about their much-discussed difficulties offscreen, but that's a side benefit in a movie that is really just a celebration of simple human decency. Directed by Mark Rydell (Harry and Walter Go to New York). --Tom Keogh

Powerful drama stars Will Smith as an IRS agent being crushed under the weight of his own guilt after a mysterious tragedy. Compelled to save the lives of seven strangers to atone for his sins, Smith uses the resources his job affords to investigate people to ensure they're worthy of his help. Can he complete his mission of redemption, even as he begins to fall in love with one of his beneficiaries? With Rosario Dawson, Woody Harrelson, Barry Pepper. 123 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, French Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, French, Spanish; deleted scenes; featurettes; audio commentary.
The mysteriously titled Seven Pounds stars Will Smith as Ben Thomas, who flashes his badge as an IRS agent to gain entrance into the lives of seven strangers in need. To each, he offers something that will reverse their troubles, seeking to atone for a haunting past mistake. But when Ben starts falling in love with a young woman with heart trouble (Rosario Dawson), his carefully laid plans threaten to collapse. To reveal more of the story would diminish it. Smith is an engaging, charismatic presence, but the impact of Seven Pounds comes from Dawson--she has the kind of emotional transparency that shimmers off the screen. Which is crucial, because Seven Pounds requires considerable suspension of disbelief; some scenes push and pull at plausibility, and you may question a few plot turns after the movie is over. But as the story unfolds, the performances can carry you over these bumps. If you surrender to its gently circling rhythms and its luminous images (including the glowing undulations of a poisonous jellyfish), Seven Pounds will pack an emotional wallop, heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time. Also featuring Barry Pepper (Saving Private Ryan), Michael Ealy (Sleeper Cell), and Woody Harrelson. --Bret Fetzer Stills from Seven Pounds (click for larger image)

Below you can find advice on where to locate your pond, how to build it and how to efficiently maintain it. People often overlook the need for ongoing maintenance to a pond, however this is vital if you want to keep your water feature free from problems such as blanket weed and algae.
Location
- A sunny position id best in order to attract wildlife to your pond. However, this should be balanced with allowing for a bit of shade to reduce the chances of the formation of blanket weed.
- Do not build the pond directly underneath a tree. This will lead to unwanted debris such as leaves and twigs falling into your pond, and this will need cleaning up regularly.
- Position your pond within long grass in order to create a nice sheltered environment at the edge for small wildlife dwellers
Construction
- Ensure that the whole you dig for your pond slopes down gradually from the edge so that animals can easily get in and out. Shelved sections are also useful, in order to cater for many varying forms of plant and wildlife.
- Create a deeper section (about 60cm) in the centre of the pond. This will ensure that the pond should never fully freeze over in the winter.
- Line the hole using butyl or polythene, this is a much quicker method than the traditional one of using clay
- If at all possible, fill you pond with rain water. If you have to use tap water then leave this to stand for a few days before introducing fish to the pond. This will leave time for any additives to evaporate.
- Remember that not all types of wildlife with co-habit well. Goldfish often eat tadpoles and water snails, so keep them apart! It is best to do research before you populate your pond.
- Do not introduce wildlife to your pond yourself; let the wildlife find the pond naturally! This will reduce the risk of invasive or diseased species setting up home.
Maintenance
- Clear vegetation from the water regularly. The best time to do this is in the autumn to minimize the effect on the wildlife.
- Clear out fallen leaves regularly to ensure they don't rot on the bottom of the pond.
- Prevent your pond from totally freezing over in the winter by allowing a tennis ball to float on the surface. Once the ice has formed, remove the ball to leave a small breathing hole
- If you pond becomes covered in blanket weed you must act quickly to remove this algae
As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure! The very best way to control the conditions of your pond and ensure they are the best for the inhabitants of the water is to use a blanket weed controller.

Japanese Bridges â Eclectic Blend Of Tradition And Architecture
Japanese Bridges do accentuate the garden very well. There are many traditional Japanese bridges and designs you could choose from which give the garden a stylish and elegant look. Popular Japanese Bridge designs are Covered Japanese garden bridge, Moon Bridge or Drum Bridge, Strolling Pond Bridge, Stone Slab Bridge and Eight fold Bridge
Covered Japanese Bridge over a garden is simply beautiful, providing you not only with a great passage through the garden but also with a place the entire garden from a distance you could even seek shelter below it when its sunny or raining. Installing a Japanese covered bridge can be chosen upon only if you locate a well made manufacturer of the same.
On the other hand Moon Bridges are highly arched bridges which when viewed from a distance look like a complete circle. Also when you glance down into the reflection in the water below, you will see a complete circle. The bridge is made out of carefully cut stripes of wood which give it a well curved shape.
Log Bridges are primarily made with logs. Since the environment is damp all around, you should go for well treated logs which are placed across 2 long logs permitted the people to go across the stream or river. If log bridges are made across rivers it is imperative that they will develop moss and algae on them which makes it essential to remove them on regular basis.
A slightly different bridge but very simple in look is the eight fold bridge which makes you traverse through the path in simple manner, while forcing you to be careful as you tread and thus you glance across at the small and beautiful things present below – maybe a well designed water pond or fresh water stream with multi hued rocks.
Garden bridges could ideally be foot bridges in smaller size. You could have well sized landscape garden which could be easily fit in a garden wooden bridge. Depending upon your design and preference you could go for a single rail or multi-rail bridge or even a flat bridge or an arched bridge, high rise bridge or even customize your bridge as per your imagination.
When placing an order for a garden bridge, do make it a point to check out the wood and its quality. Preferably, people use tanalised wood in making garden bridges these days. You could always ask for the bridge as per your requirement and shade. Tanalised wood bridges are long lasting, affordable and require low maintenance.

Metaphor help please?
I've missed a lot of school because i was sick. and i have my makeup work and the directions are to turn these similes into metaphors:
He is proud as a buck.
She is a sneaky as a lowly, slithering snake.
The man is as strong as a gorilla
The pond was as deep as an abyss
James is as smart as Einstien
The pimple on my face is as large as a moutain
When tiffany does her gymnastics, she is as flexible as Gumby
After James showers, he's as clean as a sterile operating room
If you could help me or explain what i need to do that would be greattt
Basically, a simile is a comparison that uses like or as, and a metaphor is a comparison that doesn't use like or as.
So, just rearrange the sentences, taking out like or as, but so that they are still comparisons:
He is a proud buck.
She is a sneaky, slithering snake.
That's what I would do, anyway.
Flood of post-quake donated and subsidized US rice dismays Haitian farmers
POND-SONDE, Haiti - Haiti's rice farmers are dismayed. It's nearly harvest time in this fertile valley where the bulk of Haiti's food is grown, and they're competing once again with cheap U.S. imported rice.
