Plot Summary for
Cash and Carry (1937)
The stooges find a crippled boy and his sister living in their dumpyard shack. To raise money to pay for the little boys operation they buy a phony treasure map from a con man. Thinking the treasure is buried beneath an old house, the boys start digging and wind up in a US treasury vault where they are promptly arrested. The president (FDR) gives them amnesty and arranges for the boy's operation.
Plot Summary for
No Census, No Feeling (1940)
The stooges get jobs as census takers and wind up in a fancy mansion looking for people to survey. Moe and Larry are recruited to join a bridge game, while Curly adds Alum to the lemonade. The resulting concoction is consumed by everyone, resulting in puckered lips and shrunken clothes. The boys next try to take the census at a football stadium. They disguise themselves as players and wind up in the middle of the game. Curly runs off with the ball and all the other players in pursuit.
Plot Summary for
Some More of Samoa (1941)
The stooges are tree surgeons who are enlisted by a rich old man to find a mate for his rare puckerless persimmon tree. The boys sail to the tropical island of Rhum-Boogie to find the tree. When they arrive they are captured by the natives and will be eaten unless Curly marries the Chief's ugly daughter. The stooges escape with the tree and, after a confrontation with an alligator, sail off with their prize.

Invictus

After South Africa elected Nelson Mandela president, the racially divided country could've easily erupted into civil war. In Clint Eastwood's determinedly populist, yet heartfelt look back at that time, the director examines one of the more ingenious steps Mandela (Morgan Freeman in a performance of sly charm) took to prevent that from happening. Knowing that his country was set to host the Rugby World Cup in 1995, Mandela believed the national team could provide an example of reconciliation in action. Led by François Pienaar (an unbelievably buff Matt Damon), the mostly white Springboks inspired devotion among Afrikaners and disgust among native Africans. Instead of changing their name or colors, Mandela encouraged them to win for the sake of their homeland. During the year leading up to the event, the team learns to work together as never before, just as Mandela's newly integrated security detail, a combination of cops and activists, finds a way to bridge their ideological differences. By the time of the big day, the poorly ranked Springboks are well equipped to hold their own against New Zealand's All Blacks (so named for their uniforms, not their racial composition). Drawing from John Carlin's Playing the Enemy, Anthony Peckham's script takes its title, Latin for "unconquerable," from a British poem Mandela held close to his heart during the 27 years he spent in prison. If Damon's accent is more convincing, Freeman serves as the film's heart--and as a timely reminder that reconciliation is never easy, but that it will always trump revenge. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
From director Clint Eastwood, Invictus tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela joined forces with the captain of South Africa's rugby team, Francois Pienaar, to help unite their country. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa's underdog rugby team as they make an unlikely run to the 1995 World Cup Championship match.

The Kite Runner
List Price: $19.99
Sale Price: $15.00

Like the bestselling book upon which it's based, The Kite Runner will haunt the viewer long after the film is over. A tale of childhood betrayal, innocence and harsh reality, and dreamy memory, The Kite Runner faces good and evil--and the path between them, though often blurry and sorrowfully relative. Director Marc Forster (Monster's Ball, Finding Neverland) presents a painterly vision of Afghanistan before the Soviet tanks, before the Taliban--lush, verdant, fertile--in its landscape and in its people and their history and hopes. The story follows two young boys' friendship, tested beyond endurance, and the haunting of their adult selves by what happened in their youth--and what horrors befall their country in the meantime. The performances of the two boys--Zekeria Ebrahimi (Amir) and Ahmad Khan Mahmidzada (Hassan)--are the film's strongest, unforced and gently evocative. The penance paid by their adult selves is foreshadowed, but never predictable--and the metaphor of innocence lost, a common theme in Forster's work, keeps the film, like the title kites, truly aloft.--A.T. Hurley
Amir is a young Afghani from a well-to-do Kabul family; his best friend Hassan is the son of a family servant. Together the two boys form a bond of friendship that breaks tragically on one fateful day when Amir fails to save his friend from brutal neighborhood bullies. Amir and Hassan become separated and as first the Soviets and then the Taliban seize control of Afghanistan Amir and his father escape to the United States to pursue a new life. Years later Amir now an accomplished author living in San Francisco is called back to Kabul to right the wrongs he and his father committed years ago.System Requirements:Running Time: 127 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA/INNOCENCE LOST Rating: PG-13 UPC: 097361179742 Manufacturer No: 117974

Collect Rare Coins - a Dummies Guide
Most people are born collectors. Whether its stamps, baseball cards, soft toys or even vintage automobiles, you can bet that if its been made, then its been turned into someone's collection. Of course some items are more valuable than others, making the act of collecting them more attractive to people. These items may start off life as collector's items, but very often they begin life as inexpensive commodity items that become increasingly more valuable as they get older and rarer. So it is with rare coins. Most rare coins were, in their day, were readily available but as they got older they fell out of circulation, or the materials they were made from became more valuable - like gold.
Today, if you like to collect rare coins, you will find that this particular hobby, can be rewarding both in terms of satisfaction and in a monetary sense as well.
Don't think, however, that you have to be rich to collect rare coins. New types of coins are made every year and some are re-introduced years after they originally appeared, so focusing on a particular time period and location is important. Like any hobby, researching the background and educating yourself to the history and significance of the items in your collection can greatly add to your satisfaction. You should make use of printer material as well as the internet to research your coin collection, and this can help you decide which coins to collect, and also the best places to obtain them.
You don't have to limit yourself to on-line resources either. There are many good coin publications such as Coin World or Coinage magazine which are written and produced by like-minded hobbyists and leading experts in the field. You should also seek out the help of local coin sellers, either shops, or if your budget allows, specialist dealers, or even auction houses.
Also, just like photography and many other hobbies, collecting rare coins has brought about the growth of many specialist coin collecting clubs and societies. Its worth checking your local Yellow Pages, or on-line directories to see if there is one near you, or why not start one. You will find that the contacts gained from like-minded collectors can greatly help you seek out those elusive items to that you are seeking. You may also be able to swap coins with fellow members, or even club together to buy particularly rare coins that you couldn't afford to buy as an individual.
Older coins are generally worth more, but if new coins are made of gold, for example, then they can be just as valuable as the antique ones. This is because gold has recently seen a surge in value and now exceeds $1000 an ounce. Coins such as Krugerrands, while not rare, are certainly very valuable items in today's marketplace since they are mad of solid gold.
When your collection is complete, if it can ever be complete, then you will want to show it off to its best advantage. You should take time to source attractive display materials such as folders or albums. You might want to consider displaying them in, say, a local museum or Government building if they are of particular interest.
Always keep your coins well cleaned, but do take care, not all materials are suitable for this task. You can usually clean them well by soaking them in vinegar or lemon juice. These remove dirt and grime but are non-abrasive so will not damage the surface. Afterwards, they should be air-dried or patted dry with a soft cloth. Only polish the if you can be absolutely certain that the surface will not be damaged. Some coins scratch very easily and a worn coin will sometimes be worth next to nothing.
So, there you have it, a few points to start you off on your new hobby. Collecting rare coins can be a very rewarding hobby. Not only can you teach yourself a lot about history and materials for example, but you can also end up with a very valuable as prized asset to boot.

What are some rare Akita colors?
I've heard that white is rare.
And is it OK for them to live in duplexes or will they get bored. I take my Pit Bull mix for a walk every morning and roller skate, run or walk every night. On Wednesdays, housekeepers come and clean my place so she goes to a doggie day care. On Sundays, I go to the dog park and occasionally, she comes to work with me.
What are some high quality breeders in the NY area.
Since white is not registerable with the AKC, you won't find a high quality bred white Akita. Sorry.
Why some in Japan support US bases in Okinawa
Japan is host to more than a dozen US bases in Okinawa. Some residents of the island's small port of Henoko, where the US wants to build a controversial military base, say they could use the boost to business.
