Post by: Ben on January 12, 2011, 02:54:05 AM: We have snow again, though not enough to cause major disruptions. My office is still open and NYC public schools are still open. Some commuter trains are not running (the line to Ronkonkoma for one) but the subway is running, albeit on a reduced schedule, and many other things are open for business so I will be heading in after I finish the oatmeal with pecans, dried cherries and cinnamon and coffee.

Post by: Ben on January 12, 2011, 02:57:26 AM: Sounds like the production of

Dracula (http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/theater/dracula_debt_on_arrival_pmMluWJcOtlIfqvDCaj9OJ)

Dracula 2 (http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/theater/dracula_crew_raises_stakes_zZjzDpQruhzrNmgmKUfDXJ)

which just closed off-Broadway (mostly due to awful reviews) was a comedy of errors from the beginning.

Post by: Ben on January 12, 2011, 04:57:02 AM: I was actually looking forward to seeing Dracula, then the appendicitis happened and the reviews came out and I missed it. I do like the Little Shubert space. It's too bad the theatre isn't used more often. I know it's Off-Broadway and the finances are impossible for OB shows but still, it's a nice space.
Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 04:58:36 AM: I remain as ever fascinated by this from the first Dracula article:

The designers, who worked for weeks without contracts, had a stormy meeting with him last month. When he fled, they followed him to his car and shamed him into returning to the theater.
"We sort of kidnapped him," says Kenn, "and made him sign our contracts."

They admit they forced him to sign a contract??????
Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 05:00:45 AM: I do wonder if they'll find a way to add some seats to the Little Shubert and call it a Broadway theater.

Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 05:07:55 AM: Re comments from last night - The ex-boss matter is going to be going on a long time, there's just no way around it. They seem to be finding inventive ways to not only make efforts to keep future unemployment payments from being made, but also part of what they want seems to be to get unemployment already paid to be paid back.
Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 05:08:04 AM: For them what they're doing in the unemployment case for me has impact beyond just my unemployment. (I'm wondering given how much they must b spending on legal bills here, whether there are issues re other workers as well. With the possibility being that they could have to pay up to 99 weeks worth of whatever their share of this is, in this economy, it's a bigger issue than it normally would have been in anormla economy when only 26 weeks was the potential.

Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 05:12:01 AM: I still don't understand their theories on this. the last time they gave their grounds for appeal, they were nonsensical o me, but it did seem to serve a procedural function of shlepping it out from August (when they filed that paper) through October (when we had the first quick and most recent hearing, their statement was found insufficient, but that doesn;t result in a dismissal, it seemed to be enough that they got to drag it out) and still dragging on right now.

Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 05:14:22 AM: Stay warm, Ginny
Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: elmore3003 on January 12, 2011, 05:19:04 AM: Good morning, all! I slept terribly, although I was glad to be home, and I am all caught up on the past two days.

I'm happy to know that DR Danise and the dogs are warm and the heater is repaired.

I wish Joshie a safe trip to the vet with no tantrums.

I think it's nice that DR RonPulliam rushed to the defense of Lea Michelle, although the gossip seems to indicate that she is a Royal Pain and not a particularly friendly or pleasant young lady. The actress in TRUE GRIT may not have Ms Michelle's bellowing chops, but she's a younger and better actress.

So, my trip to DC had its fraught moments, but on Monday night I had a wonderful dinner with my friend amd Sousa authority, conductor and curator Loras Schissel of the LoC Music Division. Yesterday, I got to the LoC around 9 am, spent a profitable morning playing in the card catalog and the lady who made LIFE BEGINS AT 8:40 one of the worst career experiences of my life showed up to work - I was hoping she'd take the day off, gven her "personal" problems - and she wanted to be friendly; I did not.

Then we we had at 11 a long meeting about the McGlinn estate with the executor, the head of the Music Division Susan Vita, Loras, Mark Horowitz, Jan who has much to do with the Music Division's website, Dan (David?) who manages the reading room. and the lady I wanted to avoid! The meeting, because one person never shuts up, lasted two and a half hours! Then we - the lady I wanted to avoid, the executor, Sue Vita, and I - went to lunch, came back, visited with several other librarians whose company I like, and got the 5:05 train to Dodge. I think the meeting was interesting and several goals were achieved. I was primarily there to provide the introduction to the McGlinnestate executor.

Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: FJL on January 12, 2011, 06:09:52 AM: Was this already posted about LEA-MICHELE-GATE? Perhaps an appearance by the TRUE GRIT star on GLEE is in the future? LOL!

http://www.popeater.com/2011/01/11/lea-michele-never-hurt-true-grit-star/

Earlier this month, we reported about 14-year-old, SAG Nominee Hailee Steinfeld being majorly let down by Lea Michele when the 'Glee' starlet refused to sign an autograph. In an interview with J-14 Magazine, Hailee described the snub as one of her most embarrassing moments.

But Gossip Cop discovered that one key part of the story was omitted. It was not Lea Michele who "dissed" the talented 'True Grit' star. It was actually a production assistant, whose premiere role on set was to keep the show's tenacious fans at bay.

Even though Lea wasn't at fault for Hailee's letdown, she still feels bad. "I heard Hailee was upset and feel terrible," she said. "The 'Glee' schedule is so jam-packed that the PA probably pulled me so that I wouldn't be late to set. I never meant to hurt her feelings. She's an extraordinary talent and I look forward to meeting her one day."

That sounds more like the girl who brings life to Rachel Berry Tuesday nights. That said, someone should find out if Hailee can sing. Lea could pull some strings and bring the 'True Grit' talent to McKinley High!

Post by: Jrand73 on January 12, 2011, 06:10:21 AM: Thanks for the links DR BEN.

I understand about them not receiving their money - it's terrible....but I think some of their actions were destructive and useless - and very demoralizing to the actors and others working on the show.....I hope Kim enjoys wearing that cape around the house, and the other guy likes keeping his tools in that coffin.

Post by: Jrand73 on January 12, 2011, 06:26:38 AM: I liked David Nelson in his two circus movies. And I thought that he and first wife June were a nice looking couple on the show. I did think it was kind of strange that June - and Ricky's wife Kris - got a husband and a job on tv all at the same time.

And I remember an interview with David Nelson where he was asked about the differences between his real life and his life on television and he replied: "On television, my mother knows where the kitchen is."

Post by: Matthew on January 12, 2011, 06:32:49 AM: Wow- page two at 6:15am PST, far cry from yesterday, however I was impressed that yesterday got to page 9. Of course, I didn't help matters at all. Up earlier than usual (actually, since 4:15) as DD Manny decided to throw up on the bed, so in went the bedclothes to the washer, and I was up for the day. Can't say those early hours were productive, but they were nice nonetheless.

Today is a long one. School, chidren's choir, perhaps the gym or a bike ride and then a rehearsal (Working) and then home. I'm thinking by 11:30pm. Will try and check in.

DR ELMORE sometimes I get stuck in meetings like that, and I hate to hear said person start talking.

I had to sit across from her as well!

So, I've been to the post office and picked up the mail and now I have to head to the NYU Dental Clinic. I hope it all goes smoothly, since I have no idea if it's the next step or a repeat of the last because something went wrong. Again. Which has happened too many times in the past two months. I suppose that is the downside of student doctors, but I like my Russian lady, so we'll see how it goes today.

After that, Toyland with Skip Kennon, depending n the weather.

Instead of a 13-day driving tour, we're taking a 7-day fly/drive trip. Unfortunately, Charleston was the major casualty, so we'll have to plan a visit there another time. We'll fly to Jacksonville, FL, on Saturday, drive to Savannah for 3 days, back to St. Augustine for Richard's meeting, and then fly back from Jacksonville next Friday.

Well.....Jack Palance as Ghenghis Khan with Jeff Chander, Rita Gam, and Allison Hayes.....originally in 3D....but quite a CinemaScope spectacular. I can't say it's good....but it was Miss Allison's first movie.

My question for ASK BK day.....will you be doing any Annette songs in the Sherman Bros show.....maybe Guy Haines and someone should sing THE PARENT TRAP or LET'S GET TOGETHER

Both Tall Paul and Let's Get Together are in a three-song medley.

My dentist, knowing what I was in for, did give me a bottle of champagne as a New Year's gift before the hell began. I should have drunk it immediately.

I did have a good time texting Steven LaBrie between rounds of anguish, though.

I saw two little girls from down the street chasing their collarless poodle and then I had to help my neighbor lady across the street (one of the neighbors I know) chase down her dog who was having a great time running circles around us. He finally outsmarted himself by running into his own backyard trying to get away from us.

I liked David Nelson in his two circus movies. And I thought that he and first wife June were a nice looking couple on the show. I did think it was kind of strange that June - and Ricky's wife Kris - got a husband and a job on tv all at the same time.

And I remember an interview with David Nelson where he was asked about the differences between his real life and his life on television and he replied: "On television, my mother knows where the kitchen is."

David's son was a production assistant on my film, CHEYENNE WARRIOR.

This is the cast of a play I wrote called CARDS & BEER - a one act play that was messed up by an idiot director. Whew! Except for these guys and one NOT in the picture - it was a painful experience. ;D

Turns out as they play this card game, one man reveals he has killed his unfaithful wife. Can you spot the murderer? ;D

I say it was the third guy.

From the left or right?

Yes, almost certainly.

Title: Re: KRITZERLAND AT THE GARDENIA 5
Post by: Druxy on January 12, 2011, 04:38:57 PM: I just received the following e-mail.

For what it's worth.

Visa / MasterCard FRAUD

Just a heads up for everyone regarding the latest in Visa fraud. Royal Bank
received this communication about the newest scam. This is happening in
southern Alberta right now and moving.

This one is pretty slick since they provide YOU with all the information,
except the one piece they want..

Note, the callers do not ask for your card number; they already have it.

This information is worth reading. By understanding how the VISA &
MasterCard telephone Credit Card Scam works, you'll be better prepared to
protect yourself. One of our employees was called on Wednesday from 'VISA',
and I was called on Thursday from 'MasterCard'.

The scam works like this:

Person calling says - 'This is (name), and I'm calling from the Security and
Fraud Department at VISA. My Badge number is 12460, Your card has been
flagged for an unusual purchase pattern, and I'm calling to verify. This
would be on your VISA card which was issued by (name of bank). Did you
purchase an Anti-Telemarketing Device for $497.99 from a marketing company
based in Arizona ?' When you say 'No', the caller continues with, 'Then we
will be issuing a credit to your account. This is a company we have been
watching and the charges range from $297 to $497, just under the $500
purchase pattern that flags most cards. Before your next statement, the
credit will be sent to (gives you your address), is that correct?' You say
'yes'.

The caller continues - 'I will be starting a Fraud Investigation. If you
have any questions, you should call the 1- 800 number listed on the back of
your card (1-800-VISA) and ask for Security. You will need to refer to this
Control Number. The caller then gives you a 6 digit number. 'Do you need me
to read it again?'

Here's the IMPORTANT part on how the scam works - The caller then says, 'I
need to verify you are in possession of your card'. He'll ask you to 'turn
your card over and look for some numbers'. There are 7 numbers; the first 4
are part of your card number, the last 3 are the Security Numbers that
verify you are the possessor of the card. These are the numbers you
sometimes use to make Internet purchases to prove you have the card. The
caller will ask you to read the last 3 numbers to him. After you tell the
caller the 3 numbers, he'll say, 'That is correct, I just needed to verify
that the card has not been lost or stolen, and that you still have your
card. Do you have any other questions?'

After you say no, the caller then thanks you and states, 'Don't hesitate to
call back if you do', and hangs up. You actually say very little, and they
never ask for or tell you the card number. But after we were called on
Wednesday, we called back. Within 20 minutes to ask a question. Are we were
glad we did! The REAL VISA Security Department told us it was a scam and in
the last 15 minutes a new purchase of $497.99 was charged to our card. We
made a real fraud report and closed the VISA account. VISA is reissuing us a
new number. What the scammers want is the 3-digit PIN number on the back of
the card. Don't give it to them. Instead, tell them you'll call VISA or
Master Card directly for verification of their conversation..

The real VISA told us that they will never ask for anything on the card as
they already know the information since they issued the card! If you give
the scammers your 3 Digit PIN Number, you think you're receiving a credit;
however, by the time you get your statement you'll see charges for purchases
you didn't make, and by then it's almost too late and/or more difficult to
actually file a fraud report.

What makes this more remarkable is that on Thursday, I got a call from a
'Jason Richardson of MasterCard' with a word-for-word repeat of the VISA
Scam. This time I didn't let him finish. I hung up! We filed a police
report, as instructed by VISA. The police said they are taking several of
these reports daily! They also urged us to tell everybody we know that this
scam is happening. I dealt with a similar situation this morning, with the
caller telling me that $3,097 had been charged to my account for plane
tickets to Spain , and so on through the above routine.

It appears that this Is a very active scam, and evidently quite successful.

I can't believe that Jose would be arriving this evening. Normally all the Cunard vessals (well, actually almost all cruise ships) arrive early in the morning.

And today all three arrived in the evening ;D

According to the e-mail I received from Cunard, all three ships will have docked by 6:00 a.m., Thursday 1/13/11.

Yes. It's been quite uplifting, actually. I think President Obama has chosen the right things to say tonight

The applause only bothered me during the blessing and the readings. After that, it was Ok. This rest was more support for each other and cheering for political leaders, which seemed appropriate since a political leader who was the target

Post by: Cillaliz on January 12, 2011, 09:36:27 PM: Oh Man, this year is starting off quite well. I just completed the last of the projects that has been staring at me for months without me doing anything about it. It was finishing the design guidelines I was working on last summer for one of the historic districts in town. I sent them to the people who need to comment on them tonight and will be presenting them on Tuesday at the Neighborhood Coalition meeting. I'm sure they are far from perfect, but I think they are pretty good and I'm proud of them.

I still have a lot of work to do on other things, but they are current projects not past projects. That's a huge weight off of my shoulders.
