History is often written by the victor .. For me to give a review about a movie that hasn't been out for 24 hrs is a Forest But just from the previews I know that this movie has presents, passion and delivery to capture the true story of the second most forgotten story of the lost people of America _The American black people _Second to the American Indian. This movie is powerful Beyond reproach Chief Andrew Jackson USN(ret)
Heard it's very good so I pre ordered it.
Denzel Washington provides an emotional, well written, and realistic script that makes you feel like you are right there with Denzel and Viola Davis. Fences will have you feeling happy, sad, and at sometimes, wanting to talk to some of the characters in the film while watching. If you love a good, well written, Drama, then this movie is for you. But, if you like fast moving or action-packed films, well then this isn't for you.Fences puts you into the shoes of a struggling, African American family in the mid 50's, but when the film ends you ultimately start thinking, "What was the plot?". Denzel makes an amazingly real film that has your heart racing and that plays with our emotions but, ultimately (when you think about it) had no plot.I will give Denzel Washington's Fences 5 stars for delivering an emotional and real story.

When it comes to fencing there are hundreds of different kinds of fences made of different types of materials that serve specific purposes. When you factor in all the different styles of fences and functions as well there are truly limitless amounts of fencing options available. Below is a list of 20 different types of fences and a little bit of information about them.
This is an aluminum fence. Aluminum fencing is strong, durable and mostly maintenance free. It works great for enclosing a swimming pool area.
Aluminum fencing comes in different styles and different heights. It also works great as a property border to fence in a backyard. Its strong enough that pets wont chew threw it.
This is a picture of a bamboo privacy fence. Most often, bamboo fencing comes in rolled panels and each bamboo pole is tied tight to the next one, creating a solid wall for privacy.
Bamboo fencing comes in artificial panels or natural bamboo panels in various different colors ranging from light to dark. Bamboo fences add beauty to any backyard or landscape.
This is a photo of a chainlink fence. These are often used at parks, baseball and softball fields and around powerplants and city properties.
Chainlink fencing is strong and durable yet less expensive than other metal fences. It comes in different grades and can be coated. Vinyl coated chain link fencing typically comes in green or black.
This is a photo of an electric fence. Electric fences come in different options using different types of hot wire. The one shown also has a strand of barbed wire fence at the bottom. Electric fences are typically used by farmers to keep livestock such as cattle inside a field.
Electric fence and hot wire fencing is typically easy to install and easy to repair. Its considered an inexpensive fence compared to other types of fencing that serve similar purposes.
Heres a picture of a beautiful flower garden fence. Garden fences come in many forms but are typically made from wood or vinyl.
Historically, most horse fences were wooden fences. But in recent years a lot of white vinyl horse fencing has surfaced as well. Wooden fences are cheaper than vinyl but they require upkeep, repair and painting whereas vinyl fences do not.
Heres a photo of a beautiful horse behind a four board black wooden horse fence.
Iron fencing has timeless beauty. It comes in many different styles and shapes. Wrought iron fences and ornamental iron fences are strong, durable and add safety and security to a property.
Heres a picture of an iron fence between tall brick columns with concrete column caps.
Heres a photo of a metal fence with a gate. Metal fencing is durable but often requires painting over time. It can also rust over time.
Heres a picture of a black metal yard fence separating two lawns.
Heres a picture of a beautiful white picket fence. The white picket fence is the symbol of the American dream. A picket fence with pretty landscaping can make any house look lovely.
Picket fencing can also be used as a border around yards. Picket fences are usually made of wood or of white vinyl pvc.
Privacy fencing used to be predominantly wooden, but vinyl and plastic has become a big trend in recent years. This pic is of a beautiful plastic backyard privacy fence.
Plastic fences dont require painting and are virtually maintenance free. They make excellent privacy fences enclosing swimming pool areas.
There are many different kinds of swimming pool fences. Some are for privacy purposes and some are for safety purposes. This is a metal safety fence.
Heres another swimming pool safety fence to keep children and uninvited guests out of the pool area.
Heres a picture of a beautiful wooden privacy fence, stained and water sealed.
Heres another picture of a common wooden privacy fence. These are typically tall with the boards touching each other so people cant see inside.
Heres a picture of a gorgeous PVC yard fence.
Heres another picture of a PVC fence. This one is a backyard privacy fence.
We will post more photos of different types of fences soon so check back for an update.

When I bought my house in July 2015, the backyard had an old wood privacy fence around it. Sections were falling down and it just looked horrible. I contacted Antonio at Community Fence. His estimate was not the lowest but his professionalism and personality made a big impression. The old fence was removed and the new fence installed without a problem. It looks gorgeous and has withstood all kinds of weather. I have hired him again to put an aluminum fence around my pool. I recommend him highly!
These guys were very fast, friendly and professional when I asked them to come do an estimate. Even after giving them a second chance to bring their quote down though, they were 33% higher than the lowest bid that I got. Really would've loved having them do the work, but for some reason they just can't seem to be as competitive on price as companies with similarly good Yelp reviews and approaches.
We had a couple of estimates done for our fence project, Antonio's pricing was VERY fair and super competitive. We ended up giving him the job and we could couldn't have been more pleased. The fence looks great. He's incredibly attentive to detail, he asked questions about what we would like, preferences, etc. Took care of having the ground marked for wires, discussed options for us and what he would recommend for door opening direction, caps, posts and things of the sort. His work ethic along with his worker was incredible. It did take about 2 days for them to finish the fence, but that's alright with us, it was during the week so it was not an inconvenience at all. We'd prefer that the job be done right if it takes a little longer than if it were to be sloppily done for the sake of speed. We would HIGHLY recommend Community Fence. If we needed another fence made, that's who we'd have come out without a second thought. Great job Antonio!
Highly recommend!!! Very professional, high quality work / product and by far the best price. Made great suggestions about the layout / components of our fence that were right on mark. Thank you Antonio!
Our next door neighbor had her wooden fence made by Community Fence, and it looked great! So the following month when we got our dog, we continued the fence in the same style. Fairly large project with three gates. Antonio had excellent input on our decisions and he stayed late one evening to help me find the property lines. He and his crew used to work for Long Fence so we were able to get a top quality fence at an affordable price. I definitely recommend them!
I got several estimates to complete a fence across our driveway to connect to a existing fence. Antonio did a thorough estimate and drawing of the fence. He completed the work within the timelines and was responsive. He explained to me everything he was doing and had good suggestions. His estimate was fair and the workmanship was very good. I would recommend and use community fence.
Antonio was great to work with. Super price and done in two days. Did three other fences in my neighborhood and they all look great!
We had Community Fence install our wood fence. He did an excellent job and at the best price we could find. He even "customized" the spacing of the boards to give us the most privacy while keeping the only style that is approved by our HOA. Would definitely recommend this company.
I had Community Fence install an aluminum fence this summer (2013). I priced out three other companies and Community Fence came in by far the best price. I have an acre lot, so it was a large fence with three gates. They did a great job. Antonio stayed in touch the entire time with updates, as the material took a little longer to arrive than expected. I highly recommend this company.
When my wife and I bought our townhouse we knew installing a fence would be the first "upgrade" we would do. After a year in the house it came time to get a fence after we got a puppy. We contacted a couple local contractors for estimates, and when Antonio came and spent the most time surveying (found the property markers) and talking to us about our fencing requirements (strict HOA policies) we were confident he would do the best job. Sure enough the fence is awesome! Antonio came and did the fence with one other gentleman and finished 90% of a 65-linear-feet fence on one moderate December day. He said he would come back a couple days later to finish. When he realized he had a conflict on the day he said he'd show up, he came the next day instead by himself and finished the fence. The combination of exceptional work ethic and craftsmanship is very hard to find. We too had our board-on-board fence installed with slightly smaller gaps between boards for enhanced privacy. Additionally, we they made the fence look perfect with the grade/slope of our end unit lot. We cannot recommend Antonio and Community Fence enough. Even in the middle of winter he and his team built and installed a perfect fence for our yard. Additionally, they said they would stand by their product and I have no doubt that if we have any issues over the next few months and years we won't hesitate to call Community Fence before consulting other contractors.
After receiving several quotes from the large fencing contractors, I found Community Fence on Yelp. Others had written excellent reviews about the price, quality of work, and customer service from Community Fence. Antonio came out to do an estimate and was honest about the requirements of having to adjust part of my neighbors fence in order to make my fence work. He was easily accessible throughout the process and worked alongside his guys the entire time. The work was completed in a professional manner with quality and time both being taken into consideration. Other than some weather delays Antonio was more than willing to work with us on our schedule to get the fence installed during the holiday season.
From survey to their quick finish, community fence exceeded all of our expectations for our new fence. Better yet, their pricing was hundreds less then the larger fence companies in the area. I highly recommend Antonio at Community Fence.
We contacted Antonio for a vinyl fence with gate. His pricing was very competitive and his service excellent. He made sure that the final product was to our satisfaction and you can tell that he takes pride in his job. He took the time to make everything right. We are very pleased with his job and without a doubt we will be using him for our next job. Excellent and honest all around.
Antonio gave us the low estimate and was the only estimator who actually would be doing the work. He is responsive by text, email and phone in a timely manner. The fence looks great and was expertly installed. He also removed and hauled away an old rusty chain link fence. I highly recommend him.
Antonio and Community Fence were first rate. Best prices out of 3 estimates, great communication and great results.
Antonio and Community Fence were fantastic to work with. They had the best price of all the companies we received estimates from, were very friendly, on time, and on budget. Our fence looks great!

Growing up in the west and especially Idaho, fences are something we understand! Theyre integral to the success of farms and ranches. Fences keep in what they need to keep in and keep out what they need to keep out! They help set boundaries, provide a sense of place and often help keep the peace between neighbors. They provide a vital service but when they become cemented and inflexible and immovable in purpose and intent, problems may arise. Fences, just like us, when we become cemented, inflexible and immovable, problems arise. Weve seen it time and time again. Been a problem for as long as fences have been around and equally as long as we, those who choose to build fences, lose sight of the purpose of that fence in the first place! Maybe this time of year, its good to keep our Fences flexible. September is one of those months of transition. School begins again, work can shift in focus, the weather begins to change and we often meet new folks in new situations. Summer vacations become a pleasant memory and its time to get back to planning life as we know it. Maybe September is a good month to not only take stock of what is but also what might be? A story comes to mind..
Many years ago, there was a woman who lived in a small village in France.
Trained as a nurse, she devoted her life to caring for the sick and needy. After many years of kind and selfless service to the villages families, the woman died.
She had no family of her own, so the townsfolk planned a beautiful funeral for her, a fitting tribute to the woman to whom so many owed their lives.
The parish priest, however, pointed out that, because she was a Protestant, she could not be buried in the towns Catholic cemetery.
The villagers protested, but the priest held firm. It was not easy for the priest either, because he too had been cared for by the woman during a serious illness. But the canons of the Church were very clear; she would have to buried outside the fence of the cemetery.
The day of the funeral arrived, and the whole village accompanied the woman s casket to
the cemetery, where she was buried--outside the fence.
But that night, a group of villagers, armed with shovels, sneaked into the cemetery.
They then quietly set to work. Moving the Fence.
Fences are something we understand. They set boundaries and provide a sense of place and purpose. They keep in what needs to be kept in and keep out what they needs to be kept out. Maybe we just need to consider what it is that needs to be kept in and what it is that needs to be kept out. You just never know the impression youll leave and the difference you might make in a persons life by Moving Fences. Isnt that what Changing Seasons is all about? The opportunity for growth and new directions in a place you never dreamed possible! All through the simple act of moving a fence.
And by moving that Fence, who knows whom you just might include! May the Lord richly bless you and yours as we eagerly anticipate cooler temperatures and the colors of change to come.
Bob Stone is pastor of Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd in Pocatello.

MADISON, Wis. Wildlife officials in Wisconsin may use methods such as electric fencing to stop bears from damaging crops.
Over the last seven years, about 275 farmers have enrolled in a state program that compensates farmers for damage bears cause. Last year's appraised damage was $220,000, Wisconsin Public Radio reported .
Department of Natural Resources wildlife damage specialist Brad Koele said there are about 28,000 bears across the state. He says problematic bears are typically trapped and relocated, but that finding them all can be challenging.
Koele said the state is giving more farmers bear hunting permits. The agency also plans to help farmers install electric fences, despite concerns about the fences' effectiveness because of issues such as electrical shorts, he said.
The crop damage program also applies to elk. The state has paid nearly $250,000 to install fences around five Jackson County cranberry marshes.
Some growers are using paintball guns to scare away animals, Koele said.
"Doesn't hurt 'em," Koele said. "Probably stings them a little bit, and just kind of reinforces that natural fear that that's not a good place to be in and whether its field or cranberry operation, hopefully they'll stay out of there."
University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point is testing out using drones to scare away the animals, he said.

The sins of the father cast long shadows, and perhaps no play illustrates that as brilliantly as August Wilsons Fences. The Pulitzer prize-winning examination of family dynamics and the consequences of thwarted desires is given a solidly engaging production at Mad Cow Theatre, buoyed by sharp visual moments.
Director Tony Simotes has the stage virtually humming with undercurrents of emotional energy positive and negative coursing among the characters. A few missteps such as amateurish fight choreography can take you out of the moment, but the Maxson family pulls you right back in.
At the head of the clan is Troy, a middle-age city garbage collector who as the story opens has questioned his boss about why black employees, such as himself, have to empty the cans while white employees drive the trucks. Its 1957, and asking such a question could cost Troy his job.
It wouldnt be the first disappointment in his life: A talented baseball player, Troy played in the Negro League years ago and still resents the fact he never got a shot in the majors. That resentment rears its ugly head in his attitude toward son Corys burgeoning football career.
Larger than life, Troy is a master teller of tales, mixing truth with allegorical hyperbole like Uncle Remus, according to his friend Bono, deftly played by Patric Robinson in a strong Mad Cow debut.
As portrayed by Johnny Lee Davenport, who has done fine work locally for Orlando Shakespeare Theater, Troy has less roguish charm than often depicted. The way he captured the heart of long-suffering wife Rose (Sheryl Carbonell in an exquisitely modulated performance) rarely peeps through his irascibility.
Davenport takes a blustering, stammering approach that sometimes seems to tangle Wilsons finely crafted script. But the characters power still comes through. Its up to Damany Riley, as Troys elder son, to indicate his fathers charm, which he does with breezy panache. Stelson Telfort nicely puts a very human face on Codys internal dilemma: Will he choose bitterness, like his father, or forgiveness?
Jim Braswell beautifully makes Troys mentally disabled brother Gabriel of this world and yet beyond the world.
Robert F. Wolins scenic design cleverly lets the audience peek inside the Maxson home, even when the action is taking place on the front stoop. Its an idea Simotes and his actors do great things with. Although its clearly on view, the familys wooden fence somehow doesnt carry the heft it might. But Mad Cows production makes it clear that Fences is about far more than lumber.

HENDERSON, KY (WFIE) -
Owner Richard Klein and trainer Brad Cox are swinging for the fences with Pinch Hit in the $100,000 Groupie Doll Stakes on Aug. 13 at Ellis Park.
The 3-year-old filly comes in off two impressive allowance victories, by a gritty nose at Churchill Downs and then by six lengths at Ellis Park at the Grade 3 Groupie Dolls mile distance.
Pinch Hit is one of several fillies who arent stakes-winners but come into the Groupie Doll in great form. Pinch Hit has run very well since blinkers were added four races back, when after two double-digit drubbings in maiden races, she was dropped in for a $40,000 maiden-claiming race and promptly won. That was followed by a narrow defeat in a $50,000 claiming race, which was followed by her two victories.
Shell get some weight and shes training well, Klein said. She likes that track. Were taking a shot. What if she wakes up and wins it? Maybe our horse is just getting confidence and who knows how good she could be?
There could be more than blinkers at play with Pinch Hit.
Cox really liked the filly even before she ran, predicting to Klein that Pinch Hit would be their horse for Churchill Downs Grade 2 Eight Belles Stakes on Derby weekend and saying, She shows me everything.
But after she was second last fall in her first start, Pinch Hit whiffed in losing by 13 and10 lengths in New Orleans. We all got kind of down on her, and Brad said, She trains too good in the morning to do this, Klein said.
Still, he thought it might be time to sell Pinch Hits dam, the multiple stakes-winner Change Up.
We were thinking Change Up was going to be one of our better broodmares, and she really hadnt developed into a good one for us. I asked Fred Mitchell, Is it time I get rid of her? he said of the owner of Clarkland Farm, where Klein has his familys broodmares. He said, We should probably a look at that. Shes well-bred and shes getting older. Just go ahead and move her out. That was our plan.
Change Up still could be sold. But not Pinch Hit.
The day after her first win March 23 at Arkansas Oaklawn Park, Kleins father died. Bert Klein was a prominent Louisville banker, businessman and philanthropist who had enjoyed great success in owning and breeding horses with his late wife, Elaine, and Richard.
It was the last race my father was alive for when we ran a horse, Klein said. He was at the Episcopal Home in Louisville. After the horse won, I went over there and said, Dad, we just had a horse win. He said, Who? I told him. He said, Where? I said Oaklawn. He said, What was the purse? and I told him. He knew within $5,000 what we had earned on the year without paying attention to it that much. He said, Richard, keep up the good work, and dont get out of the horse business.
Klein called Oaklawn asking that the track immediately overnight Pinch Hits winners circle photo.
My father dies the next day, Klein said. In his casket, in his left arm like with my mother is our lime green silks, so they can still be part of the racing with me. Underneath his right arm is the picture of this horse winning. It was his last horse that won, and I wanted him to be a part of it.
Pinch Hit ran back April 23, losing by a neck. It was Richard Kleins birthday. When the filly won by a nose May 27 at 19-1 after a race-long battle, it was the birthday of his mother, who died in 2013 after a long battle with breast cancer.
Im not a spiritual person, but Im starting to believe this stuff, Richard said. They were up there watching this horse run, and they willed her home. Now, I had somebody call me after the Ellis race, wanting to buy the horse. I dont know what they were going to offer me. I told them the story and said, Could you sell this horse? They said, Nope. I said, Shes going to be a part of my broodmare band if she doesnt win another race, because my father is watching over this one horse.
Pinch Hit beat older fillies in her last start and will face them again in the Groupie Doll.
She kind of figured out what its all about to win a race, Cox said by phone from Saratoga. Shes a filly we liked all along last fall and thought she had a big future. She just didnt pan out early on, but shes coming into her own. I thought it was a really nice field against older horses at Ellis, and she did it the right way. So were giving her another shot. This is a big step, there arent a lot of options out there for her right now, so were giving her the opportunity and see if she can make the most of it.
Cox also will run one of the Groupie Doll favorites in the Tiger Moth, who is graded-stakes placed and in her last start won Indiana Grands Marie Hulman George Stakes. She couldnt be doing any better, he said. Shes trained really well ever since the Indiana race, so were really excited about her.
Meet-leading rider Corey Lanerie will be aboard Tiger Moth, with Pinch Hits rider to be determined Jon Court, up for her last two victories, is riding She Mabee Wild in the Groupie Doll.

Contraband found between prison fences early Monday, Aug. 7, 2017, is shown in this photo provided by the Department of Corrections.(Photo: Courtesy of Department of Corrections)
Department of Corrections officers found a contraband package at about 3 a.m. Monday, between the prisons exterior and interior fences, according to a press release.
The package had a cellphone, a sandwich bag containing SIM cards and chewing tobacco, the release stated.
DOC has launched an internal affairs investigation into Mondays discovery. It was the latest contraband find since July 14, when officers discovered a dark gray drone that had crashed near the prison's Post 5.
Green is typically the color of corrections ... so it just made sense to use it in the name of this operation
The prison launched a contraband interdiction plan named Operation Green Vigilance on July 20. It is a combined effort of surveillance, use of metal detectors, drug detection dogs, pat downs, vehicle searches, increased perimeter checks and camera surveillance to combat smuggling, said Kate Baltazar, deputy director.
These methods are being applied consistently and with increasing effort, Baltazar said.
Green is typically the color of corrections, similar to blue being the color of police, so it just made sense to use it in the name of this operation, Baltazar said.
Following the discovery of the unmanned aircraft on prison property, Sen. Wil Castro, R-Barrigada, last month introduced legislation to ban flying drones within 1,000 feet over government facilities like DOC, the governor's complexand Guam Memorial Hospital.
The week before the drone was discovered, officers found a cellphone in Post 6or the prisons maximum security unit.
The prison is also investigating damage to the prisons inner fence, discovered during a perimeter check at about 7 p.m. onAug. 4.
Contraband found between prison fences early Monday, Aug. 7, 2017, is shown in this photo provided by the Department of Corrections.(Photo: Courtesy of Department of Corrections)
No other damage to the fence was found, and all inmates and detainees were accounted for, DOC said in a statement. There were no threats to the prison stemming from the damage, according to DOC.
As Operation Green Vigilance is in effect, we commend our correction officers for all they do to ensure our facility remains free from contraband as much as possible, Baltazar said in a release. The Department of Corrections is committed to employing all efforts in contraband interdiction.

Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke and Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski met to mend fences over beers to settletheir feud over the senators vote onthe Republican health care bill.
Zinke tweeted a photo of himself and the Alaska Republican holding what appears to be a local pale ale.
I say dinner, she says brews. My friends know me well, he captioned the photo.
The meeting came after reports that Zinke called Murkowski and fellow Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan and said Murkowskis opposition to Republican efforts to repeal the 2010 health care law could harm Alaska.
Shortly after the call, Murwkoski, who is chairwoman of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, postponed a committee committee meeting that was to include voteson Interior Department nominations, although she attributed thatto a scheduling hiccup.
Murkowski voted against the motion to proceed to allow debates on legislation and voted against all three pieces of health care legislation alongside fellow Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine.
But Zinke calledthe idea that he threatened either Republican senator laughable and said the moon has been characterized as other things, too.
Similarly, Murkowski dismissed the characterization of Zinkes call as a threat and told reporters last week cordial, respectful and friendly relationship. I dont think that will change one bit.
