Everyone is welcome to attend that is 18 years of age or older. Show up hungry and you will be able to buy an affordable meal at the restaurant. PLEASE CONTINUE TO CHECK THIS WEBPAGE!!! We strive to be in these restaurants when they have fewer customers as it means we are welcome to utilize the room longer.

There's emergency legislation working way its through Congress that will allow the federal government to be the "bank" for educational loans for this fall. Clark has full faith that this legislation will be pushed through in time for school.
Yet federal loans may not cover a tuition bill in its entirety. You can try to get a private loan, but very few private lenders are disbursing funds. So where do you turn? Try the peer-to-peer online lending sites where you can borrow directly from other people and cut the banks out of the equation.
Here's how they work: A borrower posts the amount they need to borrow; their credit rating; their debt-to-income ratio; and how much interest they're willing pay. Multiple lenders can then log on and each lend just a fraction of the money to limit their individual risk. http://www.prosper.com/ is one of the most popular sites for this sort of thing. Clark also has a list of http://clarkhoward.com/liveweb/shownotes/2008/03/14/13334/ (other P2P lending sites available).

Kentucky Film Lab Receives Grant
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has awarded a $5,000 grant to the Kentucky Film Lab (KFL), to support KFL's 2008 Filmmaker's Studio.
The grant from the Los Angeles-based Academy, best known for its Oscars, comes as the non-profit KFL is gearing up for its fifth Filmmaker Studio in Louisville this fall.
"It's great news that the Academy recognizes the importance of our mission . supporting cinematic arts in the region," said KFL co-director Brad Riddell.
"This will pay long-term dividends for filmmaking in Kentucky," said Arthur Rouse, KFL managing director. KFL studio participants have gone on to direct their own films, form writers' groups, and work on feature-film crews.
The KFL Filmmaker's Studio is a rigorous three-day educational seminar covering the fundamentals of filmmaking, from script to screen. It includes hands-on production training, individual script analysis, and a series of speakers working today in film and television.
"The grant will be used to enhance seminar offerings, while keeping student fees low," said KFL co-founder Mark Shepherd.
The Kentucky Film Lab is an initiative of the IdeaFestival (www.ideafestival.com) and is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the cinematic arts in Kentucky through education, collaboration, distribution and production.

Kalandor Nixon is the associate editor of 94 Creations, a freelance script analyst for Hart-Lunsford Pictures, and now he is doing script coverage for The Group Entertainment (TGE), an independent film production company with offices in New York and Louisville, Kentucky. The company's founder, Gill Holland, is a Spirit-Award nominee and has produced over fifty feature films.
How did Kalandor land his latest gig? He met Gill Holland at one of Spalding University's brief-residency MFA in Writing sessions and later sent him a kind email inquiring about the prospect of analyzing scripts for TGE. Gill's affirmative response came shortly thereafter. Now Kalandor has three scripts in hands to read.

Announcing an online resource for stage directors:
Would love all directors from this forum to sign up and make suggestions for sections, topics, etc
How many times as a director do you feel isolated during the process. Have you wished for a resource site that could offer suggestions, assistance, support and training?
Well it is my hope that StageDirection.org will become that resource. This site will be open to any stage directors around the world. If you belong to other mailing lists or groups that you think would find this a valuable resource, I encourage you to help me spread the word about it.
This forum has been created with the latest PHPBB Bulletin Board software, so it has additional features that you might enjoy even if you are not a director. There is an entire Arcade area with online action, board, card, puzzle and other kinds of games.

OTHER LOCAL EVENTS:
The Waverly Hills Sanatorium is a real building in Louisville Kentucky, and one of the most haunted places in the United States.
It has been featured on "The World's Scariest Places," "MTV's Fear," and was the location used to film the horror film "The Death Tunnel. Recently, it was the subject for two shows on the Sci-Fi Channel - "Spooked: The Ghosts of Waverly Hills Sanatorium," and "TAPS - GHOST HUNTERS!"
The Waverly Hills Sanatorium was a place for people to go to die. It housed thousands of patients who were diagnosed with TB, and were sent there "by law" to live at Waverly until they were cured, or perished. Because there was no cure, many of them indeed died there, and at peak operation there was one death an hour.
It now stands to reason that this facility would be a prime location for hauntings, considering that that much suffering and death occurred. Even two nurses committed suicide in that building.
It took over three years to create this audio CD, with ghost stories and paranormal activity caught on our audio equipment - mastered, and ready for listeners to experience.
This CD was compiled to bring listeners an old time treat, to play this CD by the speakers in the dark, and listening to the many ghost stories that haunt the building to this very day. The CD is even hosted by a dearly departed resident of Waverly, who acts as your caretaker on your audio tour.
Points of interest on "The Waverly Hills Sanatorium Audio Experience":
The original 2002 broadcast contains a EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) which when played at normal speed sounds like five tones in a row, forming a melody. When those tones are slowed down, it becomes a woman's voice saying "your not supposed to be here." This famous EVP captured during this broadcast was featured on Fox News, and is mentioned on the ghost tour at Waverly.
The best way to listen to this CD is with the lights off, and the speakers up. Make sure you have some friends with you, because some of the things you will hear are incredibly frightening.
While everything that happened to us on the broadcast was 100% REAL, and nothing was pre-planned or faked, we can still not confirm or deny that "something" exists beyond death. We do want to stress that Waverly, if anything, is the closest proof we have been provided to make us believe there is more in the "afterlife" than we presently understand.
Jessica Shoffner, one of our audio crew members grew very sick almost instantly in the Solarium, and had to sit on the floor for several minutes to regain her composure. She was sweating, very warm, and complained of being physically ill without warning.
Our crew not only experienced sudden onsets of sickness, but our video cameras began functioning wildly, with flashing lights and draining batteries. Our audio equipment stopped, then started, and it took us a few attempts to get back on track with the rest of the tour. At one point of our visit, bare footprints appeared on the cement, which caused us to go and investigate, and doors slammed and banged as we tried to get Jessica some air and continue conducting our investigation.
The entire setting for the evening was one twisted turn of events after another, which can all be heard on "The Waverly Hills Sanatorium Audio Experience."
Early in the tour, we quickly began to realize that we had much more in store for us than we bargained for - and we were right.
Later in the tour we would witness a wispy figure dart across a door across the way from us on the fifth floor, and then witness "shadow people" crossing from one door to another breaking the natural light flowing in from the night sky outdoors.
Our biggest, and possibly the most horrifying event was not the shadow people we were watching, but the dark ominous figure that was standing behind us, seeming to get closer. The air grew silent and still - and the temperature of the room grew WARM. Keith Age from the Louisville Ghost Hunters Society quickly asked us to step back, because he said that this was typical right before "violent activity" occurred.
While everyone investigated the area safely, there were no physical attacks - however doors continued to close on their own, and in one case even unlock.
All of these events are captured on "The Waverly Hills Sanatorium Audio Experience," and we urge you to get a copy and experience it for yourself. There were definitely things we could not explain, and for the record - the large dark "shadowy" figure that stood behind us haunts my mind as we write this now. I never EVER want to see anything similar to that in my lifetime.
I do hope you enjoy this 80 minute CD, as our crew has worked hard and "suffered" a lot to bring them to you. Happy Hauntings! ~ Jake A. Wheat (Station Manager)

On 10 September 2005 WNKY-NBC broadcast its first Live AccuWeather Forecast. WNKY-NBC did not take this launch of a local weathercast lightly. The station brought the area's only meteorologist, Chris Sowers, to the market. It made a point to offer a better product by presenting a clear, easy to understand, educated approach to the weather.
It is amazing what innovation and technology has brought to the broadcast television industry, giving us abilities that we could not have dreamed of only a few years ago. This new technology allowed WNKY to grew tremendously in 2007 when we launched WNKY-CBS on February 1st. WNKY now offers the NBC and CBS affiliate stations in South Central Kentucky. WNKY-CBS is a digital signal and can be found over the air at 40.2 or on Insight Cable channel 10.
WNKY has grown dramatically over the past few years, much like South Central Kentucky, and WNKY is moving into the future with determination to bring South Central Kentucky top weather coverage, the latest in meteorological equipment and top-rated NBC and CBS programming.

You know it and we know it: Julie Goldman is just about the funniest woman alive.
Fresh from season 2 of the hit THE BIG GAY SKETCH SHOW on Logo and her OFFENSIVE WOMEN project, Julie Goldman is brining her unique, and relentless style to WCS.
"Julie Goldman deals with the art of stand-up like she's got nothing to lose. Goldman is a crackerjack stand-up comic whose romping pop style and perfect timing allow her to wrest the uproarious from the serious and send her audience careening toward side-splitting bliss. Call it feminist or lesbian humor if you want, but the great thing about Goldman is she transcends all those terms and shows us that we are all in this together. She is very now and an absolute must see."
We are warning you...do not miss this "charmingly deviant" "kick-ass comedian"!

"HARVEY PUTTER" - The Movie! OTHER LOCAL EVENTS:
The film includes a legendary special effect: the two characters portrayed by Pickford kiss. "This wasn't
something that was sent off to the laboratories, as happens now, or to computer-generated imagery," says
film historian Kevin Brownlow. "This was done in the camera. You wound the shot back and you re-exposed
it, and you had to block out the previous figure. I still don't know how they did it." As feature films
grew longer and more elaborately produced, audiences embraced colorful, escapist stories like this one, and
Hollywood ratcheted up the complexity of movie sets, lighting, and camera techniques.

one hour in length. Films may be experimental or more traditional. They can span any genre. They need
not premiere at the Cincinnati Fringe Festival, but premieres are always welcome. Documentaries are
welcome and encouraged. Basically, we are looking for quality, unusual digital cinema to augment our live
performance and visual fringe (art) offerings.
Eleven days of performance, arts, film, music, and everything in between.
Welcome to the home of the 2008 Cincinnati Fringe Festival.
Selection of Artists:
The Film Fringe Selection Committee selects projects based on the following criteria:
* Social, aesthetic and creative content of the project.
We encourage submitting works that demonstrate the avant-garde spirit of the Cincinnati Fringe Festival.
Preference will be given to works that would not/have not normally been screened in the Greater Cincinnati
Region. The Selection Committee will review all project applications, select appropriate projects and
determine screening order. The filmmakers selected retain full artistic license and freedom for their
work.

PRODUCTION
SCC Feature Length Film
Somerset Community College Theatre's Digital Video Productions will be shooting a large cast feature length
film this summer entitled Nancy Barry's Big Case. SCC is opening casting to regional talent who wish to
build their resume credits by serving as production cast or crew. Since this is an educational project,
there will be no monetary compensation for participation. Further information may be obtained by
contacting the project producer, Steve Cleberg, by email at: Steve.Cleberg@kctcs.edu
Anyone interested in a speaking role will be asked to take part in a screen test to be scheduled in
Somerset on selected weekends between now and March. Sides for the test are now available and may be
obtained from the email address above along with information on how to schedule a screen test. There are
also many non-speaking extra roles that do not require a screen test. Those who wish to be included on a
list available for extra work are encouraged to contact the email address above to have their name and
contact information included on the Extras List. Those wishing to assist in the technical aspects of the
production such as lighting, sound, continuity, costuming or make up are urged to contact the email address
above and take part in technical training sessions to be scheduled throughout the winter and early spring.
Nancy Barry's Big Case is an off-beat romantic comedy set on the fictional campus of Summer Falls Community
College. In many ways, it pays homage to the Bonita Granville "Nancy Drew" films of the 1930's but with a
mystical twist. Nancy Barry's Big Case is set in the present day and follows the story of a young college
girl, seemingly stuck in the 1950's, who tries to solve the mystery of a lifetime. The production is an
educational project produced by Somerset Community College Theatre's film wing, Digital Video Productions.
The casts and crews for DVP projects include SCC students, former students and other volunteers from the
community and region. This past September, Digital Video Productions film version of August Strindberg's
play, The Stronger, was an official selection at the Bluegrass Independent Film Festival. SCC will be
doing screen tests for speaking roles until mid March of 2008. Shooting for the project is scheduled to
begin in late April and will wrap up in mid-July.
Speaking Roles Featured Roles:
NANCY - (Age range: 18-21) A pretty, perky young girl in her first year of college. She permeates a
genuine sense of enthusiasm and innocence. She is fearless and deceptively intelligent.
Major Supporting Roles:
TWEED - (Age Range: 50-60)The quirky chemistry teacher. He has a passion for chemistry and seems to hold
the key to Nancy's past.

On 25-27 January 2008 SCC's first annual "Digital Video Productions 48 Hour Film Festival" invited both
novice and professional filmmakers to engage in the art and craft of filmmaking in this exciting and
challenging two day event. The Festival took place in Somerset, Kentucky and began with a kick-off meeting
at 6:00 p.m. Friday, 25 January 2008 in SCC's Stoner Little Theatre. Film teams were given only two days
to conceive, prepare, shoot and produce a short film (no longer than six minutes in length) and present it
on SCC Stoner Little Theatre's big screen along with short features from other filmmakers entered in the
Festival.
On Sunday evening of the Festival, films and performances were screened, adjudicated and the evening
culminated with an awards ceremony honoring Technical Excellence, Special Achievement in Creativity, and
Best Film. Performance awards were also given for Best Ensemble Performance, Best Featured Performance,
and Best Supporting Performance. "People's Choice Awards" will be given to those films that the audience
votes on as most effectively incorporating the required elements into the films. On the first evening of
the Festival, film teams attended an official kick-off meeting with the producer of the event. At that
time, the special elements of the film projects are assigned. To assure that teams do not engage in
significant filmmaking before the official 48 hours of the Festival begins, they will not learn of a
number of elements that their film must contain until this meeting. First, each team drew a different
film genre after which their project must be stylized. Four additional elements (the same for all
filmmakers) are also assigned at this initial meeting and must be incorporated into the short film. Those
are; a line of dialogue, a prop, a character and a costume element. After the teams received their
assignments, they had 48 hours to complete their project, with all the assigned elements incorporated, and
submitted to the producer of the Festival in DVD form. Teams that have their films submitted, in proper
form, by the deadline on Sunday night had their projects screened before the festival audience and
judged for the categories mentioned above.
NEWS RELEASE
SCC Theatre's First Annual 48 Hour Film Festival Awards Announced
Somerset Community College Theatre conducted its first annual 48 Hour Film Festival during the last weekend
in January. The screening of the locally produced films played for a packed house in SCC's Stoner Little
Theatre on the final evening of the Festival. Five teams competed and several prizes were given at the
awards ceremony that followed the public screening.
Each Film team was assigned four elements that had to appear in all of the films. Each film was required
to include a character by the name of Shadow; two intertwined pipe cleaners had to appear as a prop; a rock
and roll themed t-shirt had to appear as a costume and the line "I love pie" had to appear somewhere in the
film. Each individual team also drew a specific genre after which their film project had to be fashioned.
The five genres drawn for the weekend filming efforts were silent film, fantasy film, monster movie, spy
thriller and courtroom drama.
A local team headed by local filmmaker, David Daring, drew the silent movie category and was the big winner
of the evening taking home three of the nine awards for their film entitled Fifteen Cents. The monster
movie Shadow of Christmas, headed up by Jason Stogsdill's team, and the fantasy film Opportunity, headed up
by Matt Citak's team, each received two awards. Zach Bales drew the spy thriller genre for his team's film
which was entitled Serial. A team from Louisville, headed by Brennan Callan, drew courtroom drama as their
genre and entitled their film Somerset Up. Bales' and Callan's teams both received one award each.
There were three acting awards that included Best Ensemble Performance, Best Supporting Performance and
Best Featured Performance. Keith Nixon with Callan Productions out of Louisville took home the Best
Supporting Performance for his acting in the courtroom drama entry Somerset Up. The Best Ensemble
Performance went to the cast of the silent film Fifteen Cents. The award for the best featured
performance was awarded to Bobby Hicks for his performance in Shadow of Christmas.
There were three awards for Special Achievement in Creativity. Shadow of Christmas won for the best use of
the pie as a film element and the inventive creation of the villain. The fantasy film, Opportunity,
received recognition for creative location scouting and creativity in costuming. The silent film, Fifteen
Cents received recognition for creativity in the use of the pipe cleaner element.
The three top prizes of the night were the People's Choice Award, award for Technical Excellence and the
Best Film Award. The award for Technical Excellence went to Zach Bales' team for excellence in set design,
color, costumes and stunts in the spy thriller Serial. The People's Choice Award was determined by
audience ballot and was designed to go to the team that audience members felt most effectively incorporated
all of the elements into their film. That award went to Matt Citak's fantasy film Opportunity. The top
prize of the night went to the silent film Fifteen Cents which took home the Best Film Award for overall
quality.
Lexington Filmmaker and head of ZP International Productions, George Bonilla, and award-winning filmmaker,
Scott Sullivan, served as the judges for the screening event.
SCC Theatre plans to make the festival an annual event and hopes that anyone interested in learning more
about the process of filmmaking will get involved.

2007. CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE THAT PARTICIPATED. Whether you won a prize, tee shirt, parking pass,
videotape or only had the opportunity to participate, it seems that everyone came out a winner for those
experiences. Be sure to write a journal of your positive and negative learning experience. Your future
success will come from being able to ensure that positive changes occur based on these experiences and
then resolving whatever or whoever was a problem on this situation and film. Progress toward
professionalism is a constant effort of refinement.
UPDATE: 18 teams had signed up on Friday night; but on Sunday only 14 teams had timely submitted their
films for the challenge. Other films were judged to see if they met the expectations for including all
variables (secret ingredients) and if the teams filled out their paperwork properly. Beyond that, all
films must be able to function for the judges to view them as well as for the audiences. The 14 teams got
further reduced slightly by disqualification. This process is important as it helps to encourage
professionalism by learning the discipline.

followed by a four course meal with complimentary wine. A silent auction filled with wonderful treasures
will run the entire evening. Film and television star Leslie Jordan (best known for his roles of Beverly
Leslie on WILL AND GRACE and Brother Boy in SORDID LIVES) brings his hilarious one-man-show
to Louisville exclusively for the Ball. Finish your evening by dancing the night away to a mix of current
hits and classic favorites. Tickets are $150 per person and are on sale now. Proceeds from the event will
go to VOICES of Kentuckiana -- the area's only all-inclusive chorus and the Care Coordinator Program of
the Volunteers of America -- assisting local families living with HIV/AIDS.
Leslie Jordan is an Emmy Award-winning American actor hailing from Chattanooga, Tennessee. At a height of
just 4 ft 11 in (1.50 m), Jordan has become an instantly recognizable face in film and television. He is
most well known for his television work: including guest appearances on Lois & Clark: The New Adventures
of Superman, Star Trek: Voyager, Reba, Boston Public, and Boston Legal.
Jordan is best known for his role of Karen's pretentious rival Beverley Leslie on the hit
series Will & Grace. For that role he received an Emmy Award for Best Guest Actor in a
Comedy Series (2006).
Jordan, who is openly gay, is an accomplished stage actor and playwright. In one of his best-known
performances onstage, he played Brother Boy in Sordid Lives, a role he took to the big screen
in the popular cult film of the same name. Jordan has stated that he will be reprising his role as
"Brother Boy" in the upcoming 2008 Del Shores' TV series Sordid Lives: The Series (LOGO/MTV)
based on the film with Emmy nominated actress Delta Burke. He wrote and starred in the autobiographical
play Lost in the Pershing Point Hotel, which was also made into a motion picture. He recently toured the
country performing his one-man stage comedy, Like a Dog on Linoleum, to rave reviews. In this show, he
tells stories of the high and low points of his life, from his father's death in a plane crash when he was
just 11 years old, to his battles with substance abuse and his weakness for street hustlers.
OTHER LOCAL EVENTS:
In 2004, VSM Casting Services placed more than 500 extras in the movie, SWEET WILLIAM, starring Frank
Langella, Laura Allen and Bruce Romans. That film's title was changed to HOW YOU LOOK TO ME, and is being
nationally released on DVD.
HOW YOU LOOK TO ME was shot entirely on location in Kentucky and stars Frank Langella, who just won the
2007 Tony Award for his portrayal of Richard Nixon in the Peter Morgan Broadway hit, "Frost/Nixon." Frank
will also be reprising his role in the film adaptation of the same name, to be directed by Ron Howard. The
very talented Laura Allen, from "Mona Lisa Smile," "The 4400," and most recently the FX hit drama "Dirt,"
also stars.
From the Writer/Producer: "Our film was largley seen at film festivals last year and we are very happy
that it will now have a life on DVD. If you are interested in seeing our movie, please check it out. If
you think you may know someone else who may be interested in seeing it, please forward this information.
The best way for small films like this to be seen is by spreading the word, so any help is greatly
appreciated!"

The Dream (1911)
(10:03)
Pickford plays the wife of a philandering man. After he comes home drunk, he has a bad dream -- that his
wife has left the house for some fun of her own. When he wakes up, he realizes he should treat his wife
better.
Rags (1915) (8:20)
Pickford portrays a feisty, independent woman. In this clip, she has just arrived at a refined Eastern home
-- a world away from her origins in a rugged Western mining town. Women particularly identified with
Pickford's spirited characters, and her fan base swelled.
Little Lord Fauntleroy
(1921) (9:48)
Pickford portrays Cedric, a rambunctious, impoverished American boy who discovers he's the heir to a
British fortune. She also portrays Dearest, Cedric's mother.
