Modern Baseball - Holy Ghost
I did not think I would be returning to this band in a hurry...... Two years ago on the recommendation of one of my friends, I reviewed 'You're Gonna Miss It All' (review linked here, it might not be clever to do this) by Modern Baseball. It was an album I found to be immature, childish and made Blink 182 look like the height of musical elegance. I found the music to be good, but the words just ruined the experience for me and I pretty much shat on the band from a big height. So, you might be asking why I have picked up their latest album to review? Well, to be honest I think all bands deserve at least two chances. I do it more often than I care to admit and it sometimes leads to some unexpected and brilliant moments where I eat a huge slice of humble pie. This album is an album of two halves, literally the first half is written by Jake Ewald and the second half by Brendan Lukens which acts as a document of the experiences that the band have encountered in the last two years since "You're Gonna Miss It All". It is also the first record where they have an outside influence on the album, as it is produced by Joe Reinhart So will this be me eating humble pie once more, or will it be me bitching once again......
Starting the album is "Holy Ghost" starts with a slow strumming, with a pray to someone and a sea of pain with haunting visions floating around the protagonist. It is a short introduction to the album, but already it is a 100% improvement from anything I have heard before and my interest is engaged straight away. "Wedding Singer" is an unashamed, massive hooked punk noise that takes the music from their last album and gives it a massive boast of energy, melancholy and emotion; yeah, there is the odd fuck-bomb and such, but they no longer sound like teenage angst on a rage trip. It sounds like a story unfolding with a great musical backdrop for the words to take form. "Note to Self" follows on with a song that reminds me of the slower moments of Homegrown with a massive hook, self-depreciating humour, waves of emotion and apathy, a lot of energy and a large amount of energy. It is a song that I can identify with lack of self-belief and desire for the gloom to be lifted. It is not the most energetic of numbers, but it suits the subject matter completely and it is something I can really connect with.
"Mess" is a short, sharp tale of long distance long, exasperation of the situation and it is draped over a Replacement-esque tune that gives the song a positive energy. The vocals sound as if they are tripping over themselves in a few places, giving it a slightly uneven feeling for me and a slight rush to the verses – as if everything needs to be said right here & now, a few seconds later would be too late for this tune. It is alright, but not one I would site as the best example of Modern Baseball at this point. "Every Day" is a song of a dysfunctional relationship, full of conflicting emotions, endings and mixed messages. Musically it has taken their previous formula to a new level, but it is still just emotional punk, with a dash of Replacements once again – it is so simple in one way, but they pull off the song almost perfectly; the sudden ending jarred t for me, but it is still a good number and continues the good form of the album. "Hiding" takes their sound to a new level for me, a slow number about avoidance and the emotional upheaval that comes from being cut-off and leaving the real world behind. It keeps up the slow, acoustic pace for a while; then the drums pick up and silence with a sudden jolt. But the end is a song that will have people singing in unison as the band smash through the ending with a power & race I have not heard since the Ataris were in their prime. It makes the hairs on your neck stand to attention, the shivers head down your arms and it might just be the best song of this record. "Coding These to Lukens" carries on that good form; a bolt of positivity to the music, the lyrics are dealing with paranoia and doubt which contradicts the vibe of the music in a way that can only be created with this sort of punk. The song can never be accused of being the most complex or difficult number, but that is not the aim of the song; it is just a release of pent up emotions and it is kept very short and to the point, definitely one of the best of the album.
"Breathing in The Stereo" is another short, sharp, shock of a song, a sub-two minutes with a tale of long-distance heartache, mixed in with the doubts and curses in one's head at this sort of situation. It is a quick number, full of energy and charm which is mixing in well with the rest of the album; the mind-set is one that a lot of people will be able to identify with and one that will connect with many more, it is a great number that does not outstay its welcome. "Apple Cider, I Don't Mind" is the ninth song, starting off with a blunt question about love. It is a song about the end of a relationship and dealing with the confusing mess of emotions and the fact that there is no right or wrong at times. It is a different sound to most of the album, it is a brave number to have on the album sound-wise and it shows that not every short song is going to be a smash & grab punk number - I like it, but something is not totally grabbing me here as it reminds me a bit of the band Deep Blue Something and their hit "Breakfast at Tiffany's". The penultimate song of the album is called "What If...." is all about find out that caring is a good thing and that not caring maybe was not the right way to go. Starting off with a sound that is akin to the feeling of tripping over your own two feet in a hurry, it is not quite hit an even footing for me and it just does not sit well in my mind. It is well played, but I cannot get into this number. Ending the album is "Just Another Face" which deals with Brendan Lukens manic depression which he was diagnosed with during the making of this album. It is brave to admit this to the world; it takes a lot of guts to do that sort of thing. Depression is a hard thing to go through and deal with, reaching out for help is part of the road to recovery. Musically, it is similar to "Apple Cider, I Don't Mind" with a big dramatic arch that is set apart from their usual smash, pop punk tunes and it hints towards other musical ventures, that there is something else to come. The mixture of the two side, progression and illness, is where we find the end of this album, which sort of sums up this album for me.
I think that this album is a good and solid pop punk album, dealing with growing up, depression, changing times and what every human has to experience. Considering how much I did not like the last album, I cannot view this album as anything other than a good piece of work from the band. However, why is the work not higher that it is? Well, as much as I understand the album and can appreciate it, it is also one that is not for me and it is aimed at a different set of people. People who will be making their own way in the world and need their stories to identify with in others, I am not that person anymore who would have dived into this with open arms and acceptance as I have been through this and out the other side. I have also struggled to end this blog for a while, it has never seemed right in my mind for a lot of the time, as if I was not getting the full picture and I had to struggle in point when this sort of punk is meant to be easy. However, this is down to me and not down to the power of the performance. But that does not mean I do not understand this record and can see the improvement to the band. It is a good album with touches of brilliance, I hope the next one improves on this once again.
7 out of ten - This is good and worth checking out

New Caney downs Caney Creek in 18-4A battle
Published 7:00 pm, Monday, October 10, 2005
New Caney stopped its three-game slide, moving to 3-3 overall and to 1-2 in 18-4A play, while Creek dropped to 1-5 and to 0-3.
Alex Teich was one of the highlights for the Panthers, carrying the ball 23 times for 109 yards and catching two passes for 55 yards.
After a scoreless first quarter, New Caney got a pair of second-quarter TDs three minutes apart, with Porter scoring on a 13-yard run and Welch connecting with Bubba Evans on a one-yard fade pass for a 13-0 edge at the break.
The Eagles went up 19-0 early in the third quarter on Matthew Powell's 29-yard TD catch from Welch. Creek would get within 19-7 with 4:58 left in the third quarter when Brett Carnline scrambled and took off, getting a nice block from Nick Porter before completing his 26-yard TD scamper.
New Caney responded on its next drive, going 67 yards in 10 plays, with Porter scoring from eight yards.
The Eagles added a fourth-quarter touchdown when Porter sprinted 61 yards to paydirt with 7:38 left.
Defensively, the Eagles had some fine efforts by Richard Steinecke, Fred Campbell and others.
Caney Creek threatened to make the game close at the half, driving from its 13 to the New Caney 11 in the final minute. The drive included a 36-yard pass from Carnline to Porter and a 22-yard run up the middle from Teich.
The Eagle defense would force a last-second field goal, with Jonathan Porras picking up a low snap, running one way and reversing field before finding the end zone. A penalty brought it back and Carnline was picked off on the final play of the half.

Sorry for the simple question here, but why do you need to connect the MoCA device to your router? We recently "cut the cord," and I am trying to get some hard-wired spots without paying for additional services. So, in my simple thinking, I grab a MoCA device for say my TV on the other end of the house, pop the coax in, and put the ethernet to my Roku - no splitter needed here obviously. I am clearly missing a step.

Regional bus service for flood victims ending, few riders
BATON ROUGE - A regional bus service started after the catastrophic August flooding has been discontinued for lack of riders.
The Louisiana transportation department announced Friday that it was ending the service that had been provided for three weeks. It was aimed at getting people who lost their vehicles in the flood to and from downtown Baton Rouge to other communities around the region.
But the transportation department says Friday was the service's final day because few people were using it.
The bus service was provided under a contract with Hotard on a week-by-week basis. The transportation department says it cost $16,500 a week. The federal government will pick up 90 percent of the $49,500 price tag for the three-week run of the service.

Teeny Black - Diamond Monrow
I haven't been a fan of Diamond Monroe in the past, but I think I'm starting to turn into one. Frankly, I've never seen her before she started doing the rounds on Team Skeet. ( This preview is from her shit on Teeny Black ) I don't think I've seen her before because I'm not that big of a fan of cam sites, and I think that's where she's got her start. A lot of the porn stars out there today are starting out on cam sites. It's kind of like the youtube of porn. The industry gets to let the performer build up their own audience before they swoop down and bring them up to the big time. Hey, if it worked for Justin Bieber, it can't be a bad system, right?
The reason that I never really got into cam sites is basically because I'm an old man. I still remember the time that I was paying for the internet on an hourly rate, and I would have to judge how long it would take me to get off to pictures on bulletin board systems, verses how much real world money that would end up costing me. I always remember it being a shitty system, and I am forever glad that that's behind me.
But now with cam girls, I'm doing these weird calculations in my head all the time. 'Well, her cam show is going to be six freedom dollars for eight minutes, and by to today's standards, that's pretty good. But this other girl is two freedom dollars for ten minutes, and that's a fucking deal, but she's fucking ugly. But if I just concentrate on the taint area and not look at her face, I should be good...' Who wants their porn like that?
That's why I'm glad when a cam girl comes over to the deep end of the porn pool. I get to catch up on what everyone else is talking about. It's a little like being on the second season of Game of Thrones, when everyone else has read all the books, but fuck it. At least I can do it at my own pace, and in my own time.

I always liked Carl Sagan's rules. From Billions & Billions. Here is a PDF.
The Golden Rule Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
The Silver Rule Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you.
The Brazen Rule Do unto others as they do unto you.
The Iron Rule Do unto others as you like, before they do it unto you.
The Tit-for-Tat Rule Cooperate with others first, then do unto them as they do unto you.

Thread: "Do unto others..."
And whatever the idea is, is it not screwed if individually differing value systems instantiate the idea differently. Which they do. So if you have a pretty strong idea of what is and isn't valuable, and how to perform it, and another person has a substantially different idea, what then?
And MBTI stuff tends to suggest not only that there are substantially different individual value systems in every large enough community, but that those differing systems are all normal and all suitably functional, or at least internally consistent and capable of self-checking. So what now?
(The Tit-for-Tat Rule seems like the only workable one, but it's still flawed.)
Why would differing value systems even matter? It's not a meant to define or raise standards of good, or to weigh the merits of one's beliefs vs anothers. It is simply a statement of how to generally conduct yourself with other people.
If everyone followed this rule, the world would be a better place.
But, we can assume that a good portion of the population isn't masochistic in this manner, and would object severely to having pain bestowed upon them. This an example of where different values cause a serious problem for the golden. The world would certainly be a worse place for at least one party in this scenario.Go to sleep, iguana.

I taught little three year olds this concept in nursery school. It's just not that difficult to understand or apply. Get real."My Journey is my Destination."
"Today Counts Forever." R.C. Sproul
Some wholly imaginary value systems, in precis, that differ:
system 1 - it's better to follow well-understood social mores.
system 2 - you aren't real unless you've worked out for yourself what you must do.
system 3 - if you lie, I will never speak to you again.
system 4 - I'll know the truth, and work toward it, but other things govern what I actually say.
system 5 - truth is far less important than stability.
system 6 - truth is far less important than warmth.
And those are just the normal systems. Is anyone seriously saying these differing ideas do NOT leading to differing styles of interaction, some of which are positively antithetical?
People, c'mon, different types piss you off in different ways! Do you really want them insisting that you do unto them what they do unto you?
EDIT: actually, really, the golden rule is wrong really only if individual people are allowed to be their own moral determiner, which is to say, the one who comes up with their own version of right and wrong. Because some people are going to decide right and wrong differently.
And come to think of it, under the golden rule, duality relationships are kind of illegal.

If I really don't want you to do unto me what you would have me do unto you were you in my place, are you doing wrong?
See, the Golden Rule doesn't specify whether you use your understanding or the other person's understanding when you make the test "as you would have them do unto you." If you use your understanding, you can sometimes, maybe are bound sometimes, to insist on things they wouldn't. And if you use their understanding, well, that's a whole other moral code dressed up in mysterious language, namely, put yourself in the others shoes, so why not just say it that way?
Actually, I think I remember reading that the basic criticism of Kant's Categorical Imperative is it doesn't actually make anything imperative without there being some seed principles for what is and isn't good.
And the Golden Rule is a suck-ass Fe principle that even they don't follow. I forget where I read that. Some philosophical journal. Kinda surprised they said suck-ass.
Hm, not sure how snotty I should be here. I'm basically arguing for Fi rights to decide by myself and for myself what is and isn't good. And one of those rights is independence and freedom from constraint. By which it sorta maybe follows that I can't do unto others as I would have them do unto me, because I prefer to do unto others what is actually right and good.

Thank you Grandma Hahn for the hat!!! And if you look closely you'll see she has her hearing aids. And as with the eye patch, she is already getting pretty good at ripping them out of her ears! I gave up on the patches (as it takes her less than a few minutes until she takes it off) until I speak with the doctor in a week and a half. The audiologist mentioned a bonnet that she could wear if she starts taking them off...in the meantime maybe grandma's hat will work ;-)

Please click on the link for the full newsletter 10th Sunday Ordinary Time 050616
The story of the widow of Nain in the Gospel for this weekend reminds me of when I had the opportunity to visit Israel and go to the Church which commemorates Jesus raising her son from death to life.
Nain is one of the poorer towns I visited and was probably more Muslim than Jewish or Christian. The balance of numbers between these religious faiths alters from town to town and area to area in Israel. I found it remarkable and even amusing that the Church was overseen by a Muslim family who lived next door. When our bus pulled up, two ladies came out from the house with an ancient key which was about the size of a squash racket and opened the Church for us to enter.
What delighted me was that this took place on the same day I had visited Nazareth and entered the White Mosque. Our pilgrimage guide was a Nazarene born Roman Catholic who was a member of the Church of the Annunciation. When we entered the Mosque, our guide warmly greeted the Imam and they embraced and stood side by side with their arms bound together as the Imam was introduced to our group. This pair had grown up together, gone to school together and played together. They were brought up in two different religions and still they were the best of friends.
These moments took place in the countryside in which Jesus had grown up. It seemed common in these small towns, especially with people who were not all that wealthy, to care for each other regardless of their religious background – Jews, Christians and Muslims. These people were out of the way of the political main-stream, they watched out for each other and respected each other's beliefs. They weren't attached to their property to the point it divided them.
Here in the country I call, "God's thumbprint on the world," is an image of the fact that everyone is on a different journey in search of the truth. The Muslim women looked after a Christian church and opened it for Christian pilgrims. Jesus came for the poor and the forgotten. He came for the Jew and the gentile. Accepting and loving others despite our differences is a hallmark of good religion. It is possible. After all, even NSW and Qld NRL supporters can still get on.

"There is one entrance. A machine gate they call the Stair. It consists of tiers of cliffside emplacements separated by collapsible ramps. It is readily defensible."
Reaching out, I woke my valkyrie the rest of the way.
"Yeah," I said again. "Sounds like." They both were looking at me strangely. "Is there a beach, nearby, at the foot of the stair? A harbor maybe, some place for fifty thousand valkyries?"
Nogilian nodded. "A long and sandy spit reaches out into the ocean. Many armies staged there, during the wars between the cities."
I nodded, too. "You know, I saw those leviathans in Redmarak. Pretty damned big. Hard scales, too. You'd think if anything was big and bad enough to take on the bloodfish, it would be one of them. Just swam away, though, didn't they?"
Ash radiated concern. Nogilian furrowed his brow. I think he was starting to get it.
Now the last piece. "Nogilian," I said, "you're from around here. You ever see fog banks this dense before? So far into the day?"
He scowled, more suspicious still. "No, Guardian, I have not. Such weather is foreign to these lands."
I smiled. "You know, it's funny. I've spent this whole time, all these days, trying to figure out the voices telling me what to do."
I mounted up atop my valkyrie, felt its sides give against my thighs, that cold metal embrace. It would never let go. It would not let go unless I asked it to, or unless I were dead.

"Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts." Colossians 3:16
As we prepare for the Thanksgiving season, I thought it would be appropriate to talk about gratitude and appreciation today in regards to Sunday School. There are so many teachers and workers who helped mold me into a more Christ-like person. Yet, there are many that I waited too late to say "thank you!" So, one of the lessons I learned over the years was the value of showing appreciation to our teachers and other workers. When done right, preparing to teach can take several hours each week. It is not just about preparing a lesson. It is connecting with class members, spending time in prayer for the class, and being involved in projects with the class. I want to encourage you to consider ways you can show appreciation for them as the pastor or general officer.
(1) Send a handwritten note of appreciation to each teacher/worker once or twice a year. Let them know what an impact they are having as a partner in ministry. Get the children to color each one a picture. If you can get some coupons for a free ice cream at a local fast food restaurant, or some other token of appreciation, do so. They will be pleasantly surprised by any gesture. Don't forget to remember their birthday as well!
(2) Recognize your workers in worship the first Sunday of the new church year and highlight a class once a month in your newsletter or bulletin. Most churches take the time to mention workers the first of the year with a prayer, responsive reading/commissioning as part of the service. Go the extra mile and look for reminders of their commitment to share appreciation. Give them something like a cross necklace. We had a couple in our last church that provided cross necklaces for all types of occasions as their gift to the church. Ralph was a wood carver and carved small crosses, and his wife, Gladys, found inexpensive material in the craft section at WalMart to make a necklace with them. Your teachers will cherish this keepsake!
I encourage you to highlight a class a month with the teacher and officers' names at the top as well as a brief description of the class and list the class members' names. This could be a great way to introduce newcomers to the different options for Bible study. Add a picture of the class to really make a difference!
(3) Provide a dinner in their honor. This could be one of your Wednesday night meals with special decorations to highlight the classes, or have a special dinner at another time. Provide some music and short devotional as a way of saying "Thanks." You could go the extra mile by providing a multi-media presentation of the teachers/workers with information about their families, hobbies, favorite Scripture or hymn…etc.
(4) E-mail or call them once a month for prayer requests. What a difference it will make for them to know you are praying for them not just in general but specific ways!
Gratitude to God and appreciation for workers leads to a more open & loving heart in your life, and more inspired workers in Sunday School. Show appreciation to those who are sharing God's Word and see what a difference it will make in your life and theirs!

After at least twelve months of follow up, results indicated that both techniques significantly reduced menstrual blood flow with no clinically significant difference between the two groups as reflected by return to normal bleeding or less (rollerball 95% and endometrial resection 93%). Rate of amenorrhea was 20.5% in rollerball and 25% in the resection group. Rate of post-op amenorrhea, hypomenorrhea and normal menses was almost similar in both series and the method of ablation had no influence on success rate. Only five patients (6%) were considered treatment failures, two from the rollerball and three patients from the resection group. Four of these required reoperation and one patient became amenorrheic after starting medication. None of the eighty-three patients experienced intra- or postoperative complications. Endometrial ablation by either rollerball or resection methods is therefore a successful, safe and cost-effective alternative for hysterectomy in the treatment of intractable menorrhagia.

Aleris International Inc. emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings less than a year ago. Now, the parent company of the aluminum processor and recycler is laying the groundwork for an initial public offering of common stock. Aleris Corp., the parent of Aleris International, said it has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed IPO. Aleris Corp. changed its name from Aleris Holding Co. prior to the filing of the registration statement. Aleris said the number of common shares to be offered and the price range for the offering have not yet been determined. Aleris said shares sold in this offering will be sold by Aleris Corp. and certain of its stockholders. Aleris announced last June 1 that it had emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy after 15 months in reorganization proceedings. Aleris chairman and CEO Steven Demetriou said at the time that the company used that period in bankruptcy to "significantly improve our operations worldwide."

"For the dairy farmers of Canada this is a deal that is unacceptable. We're more than disappointed," Leduc said. "It will allow significant access of high quality or fine cheeses into Canada, a segment that is supplied by the smaller or medium size cheese factories in Canada." Harper has said that a free trade deal between his country and the European Union could help the EU establish a beachhead as they embark on separate free trade talks with the U.S. If a U.S.-EU trade deal is reached, it could be the world's largest free trade pact. Canada hopes to diversify Canada's trade away from the U.S., the country's largest trading partner. Canada's finance minister has said despite Europe's struggles, Canada remains very interested because the EU is still the largest market in the world in terms of the size of its middle class. The Canada-EU deal would make it easier for Canadian companies to invest in, and sell to, the 17-member EU with its 500 million consumers. In 2012, Canada was the EU's 12th most important trading partner, accounting for 1.8 percent of the EU's external trade. The EU was Canada's second biggest partner with about 9.5 percent of external trade. The value of the bilateral trade in goods between the EU and Canada was $84 billion in 2012, according to the EU. The EU says machinery, transport equipment and chemicals dominate the EU's exports to Canada. The trade agreement, on which talks were first launched in 2009, seeks to lower or erase tariffs and facilitate mutual market access for trade in goods, services and investment. It aims at making it easier for companies to bid for government contracts in the other economy. The trade negotiations with the U.S., in turn, are still in an early stage and suffered a minor setback last week when the U.S. side had to cancel a long-planned negotiation round in Brussels because of the government shutdown.
CPA Canada encouraged by Throne Speech fiscal priorities
Younger age groups rely on digital media to a greater degree than their elders, but older consumers have become accustomed to digital platforms as tools for activities such as paying bills and staying connected with family, according to a new eMarketer report, Canada Demographics: Age-Based Digital Behaviors. Millennials in Canada are a large group, and one that marketers covet. Its also a generation that seems unusually focused on financial issues. Good value is important to this group. Financial struggles are common for this young adult cohort. The effects of the Great Recession linger in a poor entry-level job market, forcing many to accept jobs below their post-secondary qualifications. On top of that, crippling student debt continues to hamstring millennials ability to move out of their parents homes. August 2013 research by BMO Financial Group found that on average, students in Canada will graduate college with $26,297 in debt and will take 6.4 years to pay it off. Perhaps because of these economic realities, millennials are also getting married later and waiting to have children. Almost three-quarters of those ages 25 to 29 had never been married, according to 2011 Statistics Canada data, when compared with 26% in 1981. Millennials are also the prime demographic for digital adoption, as they were born and raised during the emergence of the internet. In all digital categories, millennials lead adoption. We were the first generation to transition from childhood to adulthood with the age of the internet and widely accessible information online. Thats what sets us apart, said millennial Jaime Morrison, a research analyst at Abacus Data, a marketing research firm. When it comes to millennial use of social media, Morrison points to more than just the heavy usage numbers to illustrate the best way to engage this age group.

News just emerged that last week Simon Barnes passed away at the age of 52. Barnes was best known for his role as the Tinky Winky actor in the iconic kid's show, "Teletubbies."
Before Barnes got into acting, he was a dancer and choreographer. When he was given the opportunity to replace actor Dave Thompson on the popular kid's show, however, he switched to acting.
He said, "I started my career as a ballet dancer and had just started working as a choreographer. I thought it was a bit of a risky move but it certainly paid off. We used to receive a lot of fan mail from kids and parents. I suppose we were a bit like the Beatles or that Take That of children's television."
Barnes was beloved my many, not only because of the joy he brought to thousands of children through his acting. He was also loved for his joyful spirit and genuine kindness.
His family members spoke up about his early death.
Barnes' niece, "Inbetweeners" actress Emily Atack, said, "My wonderful uncle Simon Barnes has been taken from us all so suddenly. The kindest and most talented man you could ever wish to meet. Loved by all who knew him, and will be forever. X."
Barnes' daughter said, "I love you so much Dad…always have, always will. The most beautiful man in the world."
Barnes' actor son Henry said, "I lost my lovely dad on Wednesday, he was the kindest and most gentle man I knew and I love him more than anything!!!!"
He continued, "I always used to be embarrassed as a child that he was a dancer and an actor but now I couldn't be more proud! He is in a better place now and I know he wouldn't want me to be sad, so I'm going to live my life the way he would want me to."
Sadly, Barnes passed away only four days after his 52nd birthday.
According to Independent, the funeral for Simon Barnes will take place on February 7. In honor of his colorful and joyful life, attendees are being asked to wear bright colors in his memory.
While the cause of death of the actor was not immediately made available, a friend and flatmate of Barnes, Judith Tynan, revealed to the Daily Mail the cause of his death. Reportedly, the former actor and father of three died of hypothermia. He had collapsed on a street in Liverpool. He was found in the Mann Island area of Liverpool City Centre.
According to Mirror UK, a police spokesman said, "We have confirmed some details about the death of Simon Shelton Barnes. We were called to the Mann Island area of Liverpool on January 17 at about 7:30 in the morning to reports of a man being found deceased. There are no suspicious circumstances so anything else around this tragedy we are referring to the coroners."
Though the police have said that there is nothing suspicious to investigate, it is not common for someone to die in the middle of a city from hypothermia. Now, friends and family are asking questions about how this happened. We will continue to update as more information is made available.
Please pray for his family and friends during this difficult time. In other breaking news, a popular vegetable was recalled in 21 states and 7 different brands due to a deadly bacteria that was found. Throw it out if you have it!

About Erik Tufteland
Our family has loved coming to Brian Head for years. Our kids learned to ski on the mountains, and we hope you'll fall in love with the scenic beauty of Brian Head as well.
Erik Tufteland purchased this Condo in 2011
Why Erik Tufteland chose Brian Head
Four words: Ski in, ski out. So awesome to walk out the side door and onto the slopes to ski every day. Doesn't get better than this! Also, covered parking makes getting in and out much easier. The brand new dumbwaiters are wonderful as well for sending all your cargo from the underground garage to the 3rd floor!
What makes this Condo unique
Covered parking is a godsend in the winter. Being so close to all of Brian Head and Cedar Breaks makes staying in Southern Utah amazing.

Condo great size for family. Location superb access to lifts!
Property location fabulous. Well kept up and will return again!
Great Get Away!!
This condo at Giant Steps was great. We did a little family get away and the condo was roomy enough for 8-10 people, great condition, very cozy. Erik was great to work with. I would definitely rent this unit again.
Great Location
This property has a great location. The owner is very attentive. Love the Rustic feel of the condo but, the living room furniture was very dated and did not smell clean, the carpets need to be cleaned and bed linens did not smell fresh. Kitchen was very well equipped except no blender. The bathrooms are very nice with "William Sonoma" hand soap and lotion. To summit all up new living room furniture(durable leather), blender, new area rugs, carpet shampoo and new bed linens this place would be perfect.
Hi Nick, I'm sorry to read that the condo wasn't at it's best during your stay, but I appreciate the feedback. I wish you would've reached out to me during the stay after I had checked in with you so I could've taken care of it for you. I'll be taking care of your issues myself.
Thanks again.
Perfect Retreat Location!
I rented this unit with 5 other women, all of us novelists, for a week. Our priorities were 1) Enough space for each of us to work individually 2) Good internet so we can research and keep in touch with our families 3) Adequate kitchen to allow us to store and prepare a week's worth of food 4) A beautiful setting so that it feels like a "Retreat".
This unit had everything we needed: Three bathrooms was essential for six women, these were clean, well stocked, with plenty of towels (and the hot water was instant!). There were even a collection of travel sized shampoo & conditioner left from prior guests which came in handy for several of us. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and included a dishwasher (Hazzah!). The beds were comfortable, with extra blankets and pillows. The balcony functioned like another room, protected from rain and a private place to take phone calls or whatnot.
The parking was easy, the coded lock on the door worked without problems, the dumb waiter was FANTASTIC. There were plenty of options for walking, hiking, bike riding, etc when we needed a break, and the general store had the essential things we forgot (though they were pricey, as expected.) We stayed here just a few weeks after a 60,000 acre fire around the town of Brian Head and we worried how the view/ambiance would be effected. It wasn't. From our condo, you didn't even know there'd been a fire, though the drive up showed the humbling devastation. Erik was easy to communicate with, responsive, and made things easy.
The only things that were not 100% perfect was no washrags in the kitchen, though one was brought the next day (the gal said that the unit didn't usually have kitchen washcloths, which sounded odd). The upper loft, which is enclosed to create a separate private space, has no external windows. It was fantastic for naps, but got a little stuffy. We opened the windows that opened into the lower level and put fans(there were two plug in heaters and one fan, we had brought a second fan with us) in the windows to help, but it was still pretty hot--the flannel sheets are likely perfect for winter, a little toasty for summer. This wasn't a deal breaker, but a ceiling fan in that room would have been awesome. There were lots of games and movies that I'm sure people would love :-) but most of them were all scattered between boxes and unorganized. We didn't need them so, no biggie. All in all, this was a perfect retreat for us, and we will come again!!
Great Cabin
Had a wonderful time skiing and this cabin is right next to the lifts. We will be back.
Clean, fun cabin feel, great location at Brian Head.
We came down with our kiddos for the YSL ski race. This is a great spot for ease of getting back and forth from the mountain. Fit us and our four kiddos more than comfortably. The kids loves the loft and are asking to stay here again next year.
Only down side is it's on the third fire with no elevator. So getting ski gear with four kids up and down three flights was a pain. But the vaulted ceilings and spacious feel made it worth it.
Cedar City is 40 minutes away, and has unlimited shopping, movies, restaurants, Shakespearean Festival, and numerous community activities. Zion National Park is less than two hours away.

Dear Max - I enjoyed your book about Canada. When you visit again, come to Nova Scotia. We could show you the ocean, lighthouses, take a boat ride and eat lobster!

Letter to the Editor: Iraqi army squandered Americans' aid
Published 5:57 pm, Monday, June 1, 2015
I read that the American taxpayer is the supplier for ISIS. The so-called Iraqi army took off and left American weapons to ISIS that the American taxpayer bought. This is not the first time this has happened! They are putting American and Iraqi civilians' lives at risk. We should stop supplying the so-called Iraqi army with weapons! Maybe we should supply them with bikes, so they could get away faster?
