Movie Review:
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs!
Courtesy cinemablend.com

It would have been very easy to make a terrible movie out of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. The simple children's book by Jodi and Ron Barrett, a staple in my first-grade library and probably yours as well, is essentially an expanded edition the "If All the Raindrops Were Lemondrops and Gumdrops" song, a child wish-fulfillment fantasy about a world in which the most delicious junk food falls from the sky like rain.
All you'd have to do is throw in some goofy food sight gags, a lot of toilet humor about what comes out the other end, and wrangle in some feel-good messages about family, or being yourself, or whatever seems hot these days. But instead of going the easy route, Sony picked Chris Miller and Phil Lord to make the movie, creating an animated film that, like Monsters vs. Aliens earlier this year, is far funnier than it had any right to be.

Letter From Herb
At Herb Chambers "Cars and Coffee" A Great Time was Had by All!
On Saturday October 10th, we kicked-off our fall selling season and commemorated the opening of our 46th dealership in the Massachusetts-Rhode Island area, by hosting the first of what I hope to be many “Herb Chambers Cars and Coffee” gatherings. This event took place at BMW of Sudbury, our stunning all new state-of-the-art facility located at 128 Boston Post Road (Route 20) in Sudbury, Massachusetts. Whew… What an event!
This was a special time for motoring enthusiasts looking for a place to take their ride, share stories and admire each other’s pride and joy. An early morning crowd of over 500 enthusiasts attended with all manner of vehicles including antique, classic, exotic, hotrods, and motorcycles.

Ford is aiming to turn the Taurus into sportier, more attractive car that can be the company's flagship...
The 2010 Ford Taurus has a lower, sportier design. The roof line was dropped three inches and the driving position was lowered two inches. The exterior design is more interesting, with a new three-bar grille, shorter front and rear overhangs, a wedge shape defined by the beltline, and a rear end influenced by the Ford Interceptor concept shown in Detroit in 2007.
The flagship and sportier design themes extend to the interior.
Amenities and technologies will abound. Among the luxury options will be...

The Healthiest Foods On Earth

The only thing these diets have in common is that they're all based on whole foods with minimum processing. Nuts, berries, beans, raw milk, grass-fed meat, whole, real, unprocessed food is almost always healthy, regardless of how many grams of carbs, protein or fat it contains.
All these healthy diets have in common the fact that they are absent foods with bar codes. They are also extremely low in sugar. In fact, the number of modern or ancient societies known for health and longevity that have consumed a diet high in sugar would be ... let's see ... zero.

2010 Lexus RX
All-new, with more technology but less complexity.
courtesy New Car Test Drive
As vehicles become more complex, driving becomes more like operating a computer. Yet the new 2010 Lexus RX 350 and RX 450h seems uncommonly easy to operate. And they are brimming with new technology. If the RX were a computer, and in more ways than ever it is, it would have a plug-and-play operating system and an inviting, engaging user interface.
When driven back-to-back against the previous model it's clear the new 2010 RX offers more than cosmetic improvements...
