I've become fascinated with the playlist curation site, 8tracks. It allows users to upload songs from their personal libraries as playlists with tags and cover art, then share, browse and comment on playlists of other members. All for free. Think of it as cloud-based mixtapes with social functionality included (comments, tags, profiles, etc.).
I'd been a casual listener of the site for a while (and similar sites like Pandora and Blip.fm), but only when hosting an '80s-themed party recently did I fully get into the full 8tracks experience.
The two above were the perfect soundtracks. Turns out there are scores of '80s playlists already hand-picked and battle-tested by folks who care enough to share them with the world. And now I'm making my own playlists – which embed beautifully here:
My 8tracks playlists: singles, covers, guitars…
It's been fun for me to see who likes these and then to check out their playlists myself. As a person who enjoys discovering new music perfectly suited to my tastes, this is rather exciting, as I now have several promising playlists to explore. Heck, TIME magazine even named 8tracks the best site of 2011. If you're into discovering and sharing music, you should definitely give 8tracks a try.
What do you think? Have you ever used 8tracks? Is there a similar music discovery site that you recommend? Let us hear from you in the comments.

Few people reflecting on their own disappointments in life could keep a straight face if challenging the idea that everyone -- even footballers -- deserve a second chance.
Let Jozy Altidore, whose two spells in the Premier League have so far produced two goals in 58 games, one apiece at Hull City and Sunderland, step forward to take his.
And the World Cup in Brazil must be his starting point, assuming he gets opportunities to show why he was able to score 31 goals in 41 games for AZ Alkmaar in Netherlands before joining Sunderland for six million pounds last summer.
So far, so good. In a warm-up game at the Candlestick Park in San Francisco, Altidore appears to have performed competently if without distinction in a largely unimpressive 2-0 victory over Azerbaijan.
- Carlisle: Rough diamond
- Video: Jozy's ups and downs
This was the six-out-of-10 verdict at the mlssoccer.com site: "The striker remained lively through a pretty good beating across 90 minutes. We'll always take seven restarts from the power forward, but Altidore is capable of more."
In pre-match comments, the US head coach Jurgen Klinsmann was noticeably appreciative. Acknowledging that part of his task was to rebuild Altidore's confidence after his dismal Premier season -- humiliatingly excluded altogether from Gus Poyet's squad for the Capital One Cup final versus Manchester City -- he said preparations at the Californian training camp had yielded "a couple of good answers from Jozy ... he's sharp, he's hungry and he's scoring."
I already hear Sunderland (and Hull City) supporters chortling. Goals in practice sessions are not quite the same as goals in proper games.
We should read no more into a pre-World Cup friendly than we would into a pre-season warm-up game when a manager automatically insists, if on the losing side, that it's all about fitness. Yet while Altidore did not manage to score against modest opposition, he played the full 90 minutes and the team won, even if tougher tasks lie ahead with friendlies against Turkey and Nigeria next month.
Klinsmann's own record as a prolific goalscorer at top clubs across Europe suggests he may know what he is talking about. If he genuinely believes Altidore is worth the effort, that should be good enough for Sunderland supporters frustrated by what they have seen so far.
A good World Cup would, of course, do wonders for that troubled confidence. It is by no means guaranteed that Altidore would even then return to the Stadium of Light for the resumption of the Premier. It may be no more than the product of football writers' lively imagination, but we do not yet know for sure even whether Poyet will still be in charge, let alone whom he would want in his squad if he is.
I may be in minority in believing Altidore is just a couple of morale-boosting goals away from being able to embark on a run to recall his Dutch successes. More than once last season, I found myself striving to find positive comments on his play but strive I did and there cannot be serious doubt that he made some telling contributions.
With all respect to Klinsmann, the concept of "winning a penalty" is not one that appeals greatly to the purist outlook on football, but it remains the case that Altidore twice, at Fulham and Chelsea, was adjudged to have been fouled in the box, the resulting goals helping Sunderland towards the six points that could be said to have kept them up.
If that happened to be the beginning and end of Altidore's ability to influence a game, few would tears at a summer departure. But if Poyet stays and shares Klinsmann's outwardly upbeat assessment of potential there to be exploited, he could be an important part of what will surely be a stronger Sunderland squad.

Jerry Coleman funeral: Hall of Famer laid to rest with full military honors
SAN DIEGO — Hall of Fame broadcaster Jerry Coleman has been laid to rest after services that included an F-18 flyover in the missing-man formation and a 21-gun salute.

He won four World Series titles as a player with the New York Yankees and interrupted his pro career to fly as a Marine Corps pilot in World War II and Korea. Coleman flew 120 missions combined in the two wars.
A funeral mass was held at MCAS Miramar Chapel followed by interment at Miramar National Cemetery with full military honors.
A public memorial service will be held Saturday at Petco Park.

We know wheels. We can help!
(866) 654-7467
Call 9-5 EST Mon-Fri
"Thanks Guys .... Great Price ... Wheel looks real good. I'm very pleased with our transaction.
If I need a wheel in the future you'll be my first choice!"
Introduced around 1927, steel welded spoke wheels were first installed on vehicles. Advance to present day and you will find modernized steel wheels on many new vehicles as they come off the assembly lines. If you need a replacement wheel for your Chevrolet Caprice, we carry an extensive array of steel wheels at low prices.
With over 200 warehouses across the U.S., you can choose from a selection of replica steel wheels, reconditioned OEM steel wheels and used factory steel wheels for your Chevrolet Caprice.
Replacement steel wheel benefits:
1974 Caprice Chevrolet Steel Wheel, Rim 15x6 - 937
1974 Caprice Chevrolet Steel Wheel, Rim 17x7.5 - 69462
Factory steel wheels are the original wheels that came on your Chevrolet Caprice from the manufacturer. They are original and often unique to that particular vehicle. There will be Original Equipment stampings on the back of the wheel that is coding for Chevrolet. We have remanufactured factory original equipment steel wheels for your Chevrolet Caprice, as well as for other makes and models. These wheels are tested for trueness (straight), old paint and finishes removed, straightened and sanded, if needed, then repainted back to original equipment specifications.
"Used" replacement OEM steel wheels are also available for your Chevrolet Caprice. Used OEM steel wheels are factory original equipment wheels that are sold "as is". They have not been remanufactured. They are guaranteed to be true (straight), and may have minor scuffs or scratches. Used OEM steel wheels are a good wheel and ready to be installed on your 1974 Chevrolet Caprice. Chevrolet used factory wheels are a great alternative to new as they are low mileage, are OEM wheels so you know they will fit your Chevrolet Caprice, and are priced substantially less than new factory wheels.
Another type of steel wheel is a "replica" steel wheel. Replica steel wheels have been designed and manufactured for us because some used OEM steel wheels are difficult to find for remanufacturing. They are built and finished to the original equipment specifications of Chevrolet but replica wheels will not have the original equipment stampings on the back of them. If your Chevrolet Caprice factory steel wheel is difficult to find, a Chevrolet Caprice replica wheel could be the answer. Chevrolet Caprice replica steel wheels are new wheels. They look just like Chevrolet Caprice factory wheels but without Chevrolet logo and markings. Chevrolet Caprice replica wheels are also a good choice if you are looking for a new Chevrolet wheel that looks like a Chevrolet factory wheel without the high price of a Chevrolet factory wheel.
Replacement Chevrolet factory OEM steel wheels are used to replace worn or broken OE steel wheels currently on your Chevrolet. Fitments, offsets and styles differ on wheels from model to model, so in that respect, selecting the original wheel to its "matching" vehicle is recommended. If are looking for a completely different set of steel wheels for your Chevrolet Caprice, we highly advise visiting your Chevrolet dealer to see what wheels will fit your particular offsets and fitments. This will ensure your new Chevrolet Caprice wheels will fit properly and give you the best performance.
Wheels and Caps carries an extensive selection of Chevrolet Caprice steel wheels at prices substantially less than new Chevrolet Caprice steel wheels. With warehouses in nearly every state of the continental United States, finding a replacement steel wheel for your Chevrolet means less downtime, as the wheels will be shipping from the closest available warehouse, and thanks to our buying power, at prices you can afford.
While not as attractive as alloy wheels, there are ways to inexpensively dress up your Chevrolet steel wheels, such as adding factory or aftermarket wheel covers and hubcaps, giving them the look of an aluminum wheel. Adding a great wheel cover can make it difficult to tell the difference between alloy wheels and steel wheels.
Keeping a set of steel wheels as a spare set makes great snow wheels. And a full-sized steel wheel is an excellent way to replace the Chevrolet under-sized donut spare. Not to mention the savings over aluminum wheels!
Steel rims can be used in many different instances. Consider replacing the undersized donut spare your Chevrolet carries. An undersized Chevrolet wheel means you cannot drive a highway speed limit, you are limited to the miles you can drive, and you have become a hazard on the road to other drivers. Replacing your Chevrolet vehicle's donut with a full-sized steel wheel means you will be able to drive proper road speeds, there is no limit (other than manufacturer suggested miles) to the number of miles you can drive, and you and your Chevrolet are now much safer to share the road with.
You can also utilize steel wheels for your 1974 Chevrolet Caprice in the winter time. Road salt and harsh weather can eat away an aluminum wheel's clear coat finish. Save your aluminum alloy wheels for summer months and use steel wheels for your Chevrolet Caprice instead. Steel wheels are also heavier than aluminum alloy wheels, and will add some weight to help your Chevrolet get through snow drifts and deep slush.
If you just want long-wearing rims that can take a beating year over year, steel wheels might be right for your Chevrolet Caprice. While they are not as pretty as alloy wheels on your Chevrolet Caprice, with a great wheel cover they can look almost the same as alloy wheels and still provide you with a durable, long-lasting wheel.
Steel wheels are a great solution for truck wheels where they have to do heavy duty work. Any truck used for hauling or driving over rough terrain is a good candidate for steel wheels.
When you compare steel wheels to alloy wheels, there is a case to be made for using either one. Aluminum alloy rims for your Chevrolet Caprice come in a wider variety of styles, designs and finishes than steel wheels, making them an excellent choice for those who want to "upgrade" the appearance of their Chevrolet Caprice. However, there are many types of wheel covers that can be used on your Chevrolet Caprice steel wheel that will give them the appearance of an expensive alloy wheel. Although alloy wheels can improve your Chevrolet's handling, steel wheels are heavier than alloys which make them a better choice to use in winter months. One big advantage Chevrolet steel rims have over aluminum rims is the price. Chevrolet steel wheels, being easier to manufacture, have a much lower price tag than alloys. Often they are more half the cost than the cost of Chevrolet aluminum alloy rims.
Customer Support is available to help you when you have questions about Chevrolet steel wheels. You can contact them through the web via email or phone. While there is no warranty on our steel wheels, if you do receive a Chevrolet steel wheel that is bent, we will replace the wheel. If your Chevrolet steel wheel is damaged during shipping, return it for a replacement or a refund.

Two Navy investigations will look into why a 13-foot drone used for target practice slammed into the side of the cruiser Chancellorsville on Saturday afternoon, leaving two sailors with minor burns.
The Navy on Monday said Capt. Rich Haidvogel, chief of staff for the Pacific strike force training command in Coronado, will lead the analysis that will eventually become public.
The Naval Air Systems Command will do an internal investigation that focuses on safety.
The Chancellorsville returned to its San Diego pier on Sunday for assessment. In addition to a hole in the ship's superstructure just above the deck, there was some internal damage, a Naval Surface Forces spokesman said.
The drone was a Northrop Grumman-made BQM-74E aerial target, of a line used by the Navy since 1968.
Mimicking an incoming missile, the drone was headed toward the Chancellorsville off the coast of Ventura County. It was supposed to turn away more than a mile from the ship.
For reasons that are still being investigated, it didn't turn away. Instead, the 13-foot-long drone struck the cruiser on its left side.
It's the first time anyone at the Navy's Point Mugu sea range can remember a target drone bashing into anything.
One naval analyst said one crash probably should not spark alarm, even as unmanned aerial vehicle use is on the rise not only in the military but in private sector, such as for surveying crops.
"I think that you chalk this one up to misfortune," said Norman Friedman, author of the book "Unmanned Combat Air Systems." "Recognize that there are problems not only with drones, and with missiles, but even with manned aircraft."
Navy ships and aircraft use the Northrop Grumman drone for training almost weekly in the waters off Southern California. The Navy keeps more than 200 of the BQM-74E in its inventory.
The turbojet vehicle, with a nearly six-foot wingspan, is operated remotely but a human doesn't need to have a hand on the stick at all times, an official from Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division said Monday.
The operator, watching from a control room on land, engages the drone when a direction change is needed, for example.
The Navy has suspended use of the BQM-74E, the weapons division official said. The drone won't be put back into use until after an investigation is complete — which will probably take at least a month.
In the meantime, Navy ships won't be able to complete certain pieces of testing and training that require use of that drone, the weapons division official said.

Some Bulbapedia members have formed a project to better organize efforts to write and improve articles about locations in the Pokémon world. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page or the Bulbapedia forum and see the Bulbapedia:Project Locations/To-do list.
Project Locations covers all articles about locations in the Pokémon world. The ultimate goal is to create, expand and standardize articles for every location in the Pokémon world, ranging from popular locations (The Underground) to the obscure (Seabreak Path). All locations in the Pokémon world fall under the scope of this project, except for numbered routes and major named routes, which are under the scope of Project Routes, a subproject of Project Locations, as well as cities and towns, which are covered by Project Cities and Towns, another subproject.
You can help by opening the List of locations by name and selecting any location that is a stub (or not a stub) and expand it using your general knowledge or from other facts and figures. Most of the existing location articles need to be modified to comply with the project standard (see below). You can check Category:Location stubs to see which articles need expanding.
Some articles need pictures. Help them by adding a picture of the location from the Bulbagarden Archives or uploading a new one. If you see an article without a location map in its infobox template, add one immediately. Also, some articles do not have an infobox template, if you come across one, add it immediately.
To join the project, simply add your name to the bottom of this list:
details! Will try to help! Best with Johto!
Thank you.
Articles about Hoenn routes, cities, and locations are looking down in the dumps. Why don't we quality them up. Every little bit of information counts, so when you've got some time, expand some articles and make them a little better than stub status.
Snowpoint Temple
Snowpoint Temple (Japanese: キッサキしんでん Kissaki Temple) is a location in Snowpoint City. It is the home of the legendary Pokémon Regigigas, which can only be awakened for battle if the player brings along all three of Hoenn's legendary golems. The player cannot enter the Temple without defeating Cynthia as well as obtaining the National Pokédex, and even then, Regigigas will not awaken without the Hoenn trio present. The temple is very extensive, and has many puzzles involving sliding on ice.

Articles should use {{Infobox location}}, and all known information should be supplied. A example Infobox is shown below.
{{Infobox location}}
Untitled section that describes the location. Depending on the location, this section may just describe where it is located in the Pokémon world and basic details regarding the area, or may go into considerable detail. Regardless, all text describing the location should be in this section.
A geographical description of the location, including similarities to places in reality. This is to include all parts of the location.
A list of items found in this location as well as a description of where the items are. These are to be placed in dot points with a short description on how to find it.
A list of Pokémon that appear in this location as well as encounter rates and times of encounter if possible. Lists should be separated by Generation using third-level headlines. If the route appeared in only one Generation, then the Generation heading is not necessary. See Route 1 and Route 132 for examples of tables.
Lists should be organized in order of location, then highest to lowest encounter rate. If the encounter rate for a Pokémon is lower in a different game, a repeat of the entry should be made directly underneath except with that particular game highlighted (instead of in the initial entry), and the different encounter rate stated. In the case of multiple Pokémon with the same encounter rate, Pokémon should be listed in order of games they are available in, then their National Pokédex number.
A list of trainers, using the appropriate template. They should be separated by Generation using third-level headlines. If the route appeared in only one Generation, then the Generation heading is not necessary.
If the location was featured in multiple versions and Generations of Pokémon, the differences between those should be discussed here. A gallery of different generations can be placed here to show the differences.
Place all internal links here, that have reference or significance to the article.
Place all references here.
Place all external links which are not references here.

Looking back on the last few years, one can certainly argue that today's municipal bond market is no longer your grandfathers' municipal bond market. Like many fixed income asset classes, municipal bonds recently have become an option for institutional investors around the world as managers seek sources to generate alpha. The global spotlight on this newfound market has led to a dramatic increase in the frequency of municipal bonds in the financial headlines.
This has certainly been the case during the past two years, with overwhelmingly negative headlines concerning (1) potential tax reform issues and their effects on municipal bonds broadly, (2) substantial pain in Puerto Rico's economy, and (3) Detroit's bankruptcy filing. While the media has been fixated on such negative developments, we believe there's a more-important truth: While the municipal market remains a diverse and healthy one, recent tax initiatives have only bolstered the potential attractiveness of municipal bonds for some investors.
Exiting 2010, investors were staring at higher taxes (beginning in 2013), as a result of the 3.8% unearned income Medicare tax passed under the Healthcare and Reconciliation Act of 2010. In addition, investors were faced with the expiration of the Bush-era tax cuts when continued economic weakness, post financial crisis, forced legislators to extend those tax cuts for an additional two years.
The sunset of the two-year extension fell in the middle of the U.S. fiscal cliff negotiations at the end of 2012. As a result of the negotiations, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 was passed, resulting in significant changes to the tax code, and subsequently altering the investing landscape.
Among the most notable changes were the additions of new tax brackets, as well as adjustments to the upper income brackets. Furthermore, the new tax code brought along:
The above provisions went into effect in January 2013, in addition to the 3.8% Medicare tax that was passed in 2010. On top of the changes made at the federal level, several states also instituted tax initiatives to bolster their own finances.
For some investors, these tax changes have made municipal bonds an even more attractive investment alternative, further enhancing their potential role as a key core investment for fixed income portfolios.
Comparing a bond's taxable equivalent yield (TEY)1 in 2012 and 2014 may best illustrate the effects that the tax changes have had on investor returns. For example, a 30-year general obligation issued by the state of California would provide an additional 89 basis points (or more than 14%) in taxable equivalent yield for non-resident investors in the highest tax bracket in 2014 versus the yield before the recent tax changes were implemented in 20122.
View chart
Taxable equivalent yield in 2012 and 2014
Data: IRS (taxation rates); Delaware Investments (tax-equivalent yield calculations).
Chart shown is for comparison purpose only
In this case, the investor earns approximately 134 basis points (or 20.06%) more in taxable equivalent yield, simply based on the effects of higher taxes. By comparison, a solid generic corporate bond with a similar A-rating would currently yield 5.23%.
The 2012/2014 difference remains similar when the effects of tax changes at the federal level are isolated. (This is important because state-level effects are less consistent, as they vary from state to state). Though the 28% bracket was left unchanged from the rates in 2012, the increase in taxes in 2014 has resulted in higher TEY for all tax brackets 33% or higher. For example, the corresponding pick-up at the highest tax bracket in 2014 versus 2012 (assuming the bond is generating a tax-exempt yield of 6%) is 137 basis points (or approximately 15%). This pick-up is magnified for investors in states that have initiated their own tax changes, as illustrated in the aforementioned California general obligation bond example.
*Assumes that the 3.8% Medicare tax is applied to investment income for Federal marginal tax brackets of 33% and above. Some investors may not be subject to all or any of the Medicare tax.
The municipal bond market has dealt with many obstacles and a barrage of negative headlines since the financial crisis. But in many ways the market has evolved and gained popularity with a broader investor base worldwide, all while navigating periods of intense volatility. The one consistent positive has been the inherent value of municipal bonds. Difficult economic times have resulted in a need for governments to increase revenues by raising taxes.
Consequently, we believe the implementation of higher taxes — at the federal, state, and local levels — has only enhanced the attractiveness of municipal bonds. This is because on a tax equivalent basis, the value of the tax exemption rises as rates go higher.
1Taxable equivalent yield is defined as the yield a taxable bond must generate in order to equal the yield generated by a tax-free investment.
2Note that this is for a bond with a 5.00% coupon that matures in 2042.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Fixed income securities and bond funds can lose value, and investors can lose principal, as interest rates rise. They also may be affected by economic conditions that hinder an issuer's ability to make interest and principal payments on its debt. The Funds may also be subject to prepayment risk, the risk that the principal of a fixed income security that is held by the Funds may be prepaid prior to maturity, potentially forcing the Funds to reinvest that money at a lower interest rate.
High yielding, non-investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) involve higher risk than investment grade bonds.
Funds that invest primarily in one state may be more susceptible to the economic, regulatory, regional, and other factors of that state than geographically diversified funds.
Substantially all dividend income derived from tax-free funds is exempt from federal income tax. Some income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) that applies to certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are taxable.
The term "alpha" refers to a given portfolio's return that exceeds returns generated by simple market movements. In other words, it is the component of total return that is inherent to the portfolio — not the market.

"Downtown" was the first of fifteen consecutive Top 40 hits for Clark in the U.S. Among others were: "I Know a Place", "My Love", "A Sign of the Times", "I Couldn't Live Without Your Love", "This Is My Song," and "Don't Sleep in the Subway" — all in the 1960s.
The American recording industry honored her with Grammy Awards for "Best Rock & Roll Record" in 1964 for her hit song, "Downtown," and in 1965 for "Best Contemporary Female Vocal Performance" for the song, "I Know a Place."
In early 1968, NBC invited her to host her own TV special in the U.S. Black singer Harry Belafonte was invited to perform on the show and also to join Clark in doing a song or two.
Harry Belafonte by then was a well known Jamaican-American musician and actor, who had helped make Calypso and Caribbean music popular throughout the world with his singing in the 1950s.Belafonte was known for a number of songs, especially the "Banana Boat Song", which include a famous "day-o" lyric throughout.
Belafonte was also known for his support of civil rights and humanitarian causes. He was an early supporter of the civil rights movement in the 1950s and one of Martin Luther King's confidants. He provided financial support for King and his family, and bailed King out of jail when he was arrested in Birmingham, Alabama during a demonstration.
Belafonte had also raised thousands of dollars to release other imprisoned civil rights protesters. And he supported voter registration drives, helped organize the historic civil rights March on Washington in 1963, and sang for activists in the summer of 1964 in Greenwood, Mississippi. But in early 1968, Belafonte was in his role as an entertainer, about to appear on television in a guest slot to sing on Petula Clark's TV show.
Chrysler V.P. ObjectsDuring a taping of the show in March 1968, while singing a duet with Belafonte titled "On the Path of Glory", an anti-war song that she had composed, Petula Clark innocently and naturally touched Belafonte's arm toward the end of the song. Doyle Lott, a vice president from Chrysler, the show's sponsor, was present at the taping. Lott objected to the "interracial touching" and feared the brief moment would offend Southern viewers — this at a time when racial conflict was a major issue in the U.S. Lott insisted they substitute a different take — one with Clark and Belafonte standing well away from each other. But Clark and her husband, Claude Wolff, the executive producer of the show, refused. They destroyed all the other takes of the song, and delivered the finished program to NBC with the touching segment as part of the show. Clark, who had ownership of the special, told NBC that the performance would be shown intact or she would not allow the special to be aired at all. Meanwhile, at Chrysler, by March 10, 1968, Doyle Lott was relieved of his responsibilities. The Clark-Belafonte-Chrysler incident soon made the news, as American newspapers and magazines reported on the controversy. The press stories, however, only heightened viewer interest in the show.
Advertising for the Petula Clark Show ran all across the country, with some local TV guides featuring Clark and Belafonte on the cover. The show was broadcast on April 8th, 1968 with Clark doing several numbers on her own as well as Belafonte doing several on his own before they sang together. It marked the first time a man and woman of different races exchanged physical contact on American television.
When the show finally aired, it received high ratings and critical acclaim.
Rave Reviews
Reviews of the show were mostly positive and many quite laudatory. Wade Mosby of the Milwaukee Journal, writing on April 3rd, described the show as "a steady pleasant hour of song," calling Clark a "gifted British import," equally at home with rock and roll and a broad range of ballads. He also mentioned the "celebrated touching incident," calling it a "friendly gesture" that "would have gone unnoticed by most viewers" had it not been for the advance press coverage it received.
Bob Hull writing in the Hollywood Reporter of April 4, 1968, said: "…With her guest Harry Belafonte, Petula sang about the horrors of war in the song 'On the Path of Glory.' At the end of it, Miss Clark touched Belafonte's arm, the incident which, during the taping, resulted in a agency rep who must have been thinking of the white-sheet crowd in the South…"
Barbara Delatiner, in her review of April 3, 1968 for Newsday wrote: "…Miss Clark dominated the well-paced hour. . .whether reprising her hits in a plain studio setting…or joining Harry Belafonte, her lone, magnificent guest star, in that now-celebrated rendition of 'On the Path of Glory.' Celebrated? Yes, because when at the conclusion of this stirring song Miss Clark touched Belafonte's arm the sponsor's representative attempted to kill the number. He was unsuccessful, thankfully. The number was one of the most moving musical interludes on TV ever."
C. J. Skreen, writing a positive review of the show for the Seattle Times on April 3, 1968, did not mention the incident, but did say: "…Particularly moving was her duet with Harry Belafonte on an antiwar song, 'On the Path of Glory.' " Kay Gardella of the New York Daily News, offered a glowing review of the show on April 3, 1968:
…A stylish, sophisticated musical hour with a nice contemporary flavor, excellent sets and a star who can sing like a dream. That just about sums up Petula Clark's first American TV special on NBC last night.
Except, perhaps, for the fact that the hour received some unpleasant advance publicity. It was reported that during the taping of the show a sponsor representative objected to Miss Clark and her guest star, Harry Belafonte, touching during a duet of "On the Path of Glory."
Ironically, this was the highlight of the hour and Belafonte never showed off to such advantage. How unfortunate that anything should have marred this otherwise flawless program….
Variety magazine, in its review, noted: "… the touching bit which caused such a stir…could only disturb the spiritually sick."
In the wake of the incident, there were a number of news and opinion pieces that appeared in the national press, including a piece in the New York Times by Belafonte himself. Most of these pieces focused on the issue of racial discrimination in the entertainment industry and beyond.
In a few cases, in the weeks following the incident, as at CBS, there were directives from on high to writers, producers, directors, and studio programming heads instructing them "to intensify immediately the portrayal and use and actual number of Negroes in entertainment programs."
Belafonte's Recounting
In August 2000, Harry Belefonte did an extensive interview with Ken Paulson at the First Amendment Center at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee covering the entire trajectory of Belafonte's career and his work in civil rights. In the course of that interview, they briefly revisited The Petula Clark Show incident, in which Belfonte stated, in part:
…Petula Clark and I performed together on television, and it was a heralded show, because Petula Clark was at the height of her fame. I was in the height of my ascendancy at the time. We loved the work that each other had done and enjoyed performing together. And at the end of this particular song that we sang together — at the end of it, because we had successfully achieved what was a rather difficult technical approach to accomplish — she reached over, delighted at the success…that we had technically achieved our goals, and she put her hand on my hand."…[Petula] said, 'I will go any way that you want to go, Harry.' And I said, 'Well, I'd like to take 'em on.' And she said, 'Well, then let's do that'."
– Harry Belafonte The account executive for the sponsor of the show saw the touch and said that he was violated by it. He did not want it to go forward, that it would upset Southern viewers, and that he wanted that shot struck from the [tape]… he wanted it edited out. Petula Clark had the rights to her show, and they called her to tell her quietly what had happened, why…they were having difficulty… [A]nd then she told me what the problem was, and she wanted to know, how did I want to handle it? And I told her we were in a very peculiar place at that moment. Here we were, getting on television for the first time, seeking to have black images put in positive ways on television, and that, certainly, to raise a question at this time would not only frighten other people but, perhaps, even cause her — her show to be suspended, and that I would defer to her. And she said, "I will go any way that you want to go, Harry." And I said, "Well, I'd like to take 'em on." And she said, "Well, then let's do that." So we took it on, and the press carried a lot of stories on the subject. She survived. The show did very well. Her ratings went up, and she stayed on television for a very long time.
In September 2008, forty years following the broadcast of the show, Petula Clark and producer Claude Wolff joined moderator Midge Woolsey of WQXR at the Paley Center for Media in New York City to revisit the incident and discuss its impact.
There is also an April 2008 on-camera interview with director/producer Steve Binder about the history of The Petula Clark Show and the Belafonte incident conducted by the Archive of American Television Blog. This interview provides some additional perspective on the show and additional behind-the-scenes objections to Belafonte's involvement in that show.

She was 20, I was 12, man my Nana said she raped me
I just smiled from ear to ear, saying take me, baby, take me
Since high school, nigga, I ain't got no friends
Got two 380s like the Ying Yang Twins (Haaan)
That's spot clicking till the Ds run in
Then it's bail money and lawyer fees, you got to have ends
Freshman year I had that CBR Hurricane
In a ill herringbone, I got them swinging Heroine
I shoot a nigga in a heartbeat I ain't no chump
Then you can run forrest run, retard when I dump
They take kindness for weakness, niggas don't respect that
So me I'm where that Ruger, that Pump and that Tec at
Some look at me I'm on now, I thought we was rich then
Shipment, but you had like twenty bricks in Richmond
We was in Cocaine heaven, I was fishscale dreaming
We just got in the town, we was strapped up scheming
First Country caught a body, then Country caught a body
Then I popped a couple niggas then Country shot everybody
It's cold blooded, it's real shit, you got to love it
Trey-eight Snub it, and don't think nothing of it
It's the way of the wolves, it's how they train us to move
Get it popping when we shopping, niggas hold down the tools
I seen niggas getting rich
Then days went by, then days went by, then days went by
I was tired of not having shit
Then days went by, then days went by, then days went by
I seen niggas getting hit
Then days went by, then days went by, then days went by
We was slinging that shit
Then days went by, then days went by, then days went by
Here I am
[Verse 2]
Unsure since we was little niggas, son, since we were seven
Armed robbery, first degree, my man did seven
Niggas popped his whip up, hit his Camry with a seven
He a lucky motherfucker, I bet he make it to heaven
My Grandpa drunk, my uncle Rock drunk
My uncle Champ pump crack, smoked my fucking stash up
I had 250 grams stashed on the porch
I mean, how much you going to smoke, man?
How much you going to snort?
First the VCR went, then the TV went
He stole out of mommy purse
She thought it was me, kid
I ain't ask her for no money, son
Cause I was out hustling
She was looking at me sideways like I'm a thief or something
That hurt me, come on son that wouldn't hurt you?
I pistol whip that nigga till his face was purple
I need anger management, see I hold on to a grudge
The same way I hold on to that nickel-plate Snub
The Lord don't have imperfections, baby
So I think I'm perfect the way he made me
Some say I'm cool, some say I'm crazy
Some say I ain't shit, some say I'm amazing
In this track 50 details the trials and tribulations coming up and the transition from a hustler to a successful rapper.

Strong colours – strong design
More colour variety in the kitchen design.
The new colours Sunrise, Midnight, Emerald and Coral by Villeroy & Boch open up additional scope for individual kitchen designs and stylish, aesthetic creations with high-quality ceramic sinks. Our bright colours are available for selected models and were created by the trendy product and interior designer, Gesa Hansen. She was inspired by nature and the seasons.
"Kitchens are increasingly turning into living spaces, they are no longer cool and sterile. Colour takes away the cold character of a kitchen sink and integrates it into the room. Using high-quality ceramics as part of emerging interior design trends gives us more freedom to be inspired, and at the same time opens up new combination options."
– Gesa Hansen
Emerald brings a fresh spring feel into homes and can be wonderfully combined with dark walnut countertops or furniture fronts. Grey sandstone and white mineral also perfectly show off the bold green. If you'd like to add additional shades of green, for example on feature walls, consider soft mint or vibrant forest green. The natural association with the lush green of the forest is further emphasised by rough textures such as raw concrete or matt metal.
Sunrise yellow brings summer into the kitchen. Combined with white oak, the warm yellow has a particularly fresh and friendly effect. In bright rooms, Sunrise works very well in combination with pastel colours. Strong contrasts, on the other hand, can created with black granite or marble. Warm woody brown gives designs a natural touch. Suitable colours for feature walls or accessories are lemon and sun yellow, which further bring out the shine of the ceramics.
The new Coral is a strong colour that, even on its own, adds intriguing accents to the kitchen. Inspired by colourful autumn leaves shimmering in golden light, Coral goes particularly well with light work surfaces and furniture made from, for example, grey limed oak, beige sandstone, white marble or light concrete. Soft pastels shades of rosé or a dark marsala conjure up atmospheric colour harmonies in the room. Gleaming copper creates attractive accents.
Midnight blue is a winter colour – cool, but not cold. Combined with a gentle misty blue or a fine light grey, the rich blue is particularly expressive. Midnight is the perfect colour for decorating traditional white & blue furniture, for example, with a light concrete look base and a white worktop. Blue furniture fronts give rooms a maritime look. Light wood, such as oiled oak, brings warm tones to the setting, while yellow accessories add colourful accents.

Back from Hawaii...
This was our first hotel in Maui, Aston Kaanapali Shores. It was very nice. It was a condo. We had a kitchen and living room and washer and dryer so that came in very handy. We were able to save a little money that way. They outside was just beautiful as you can see.
Here we are headed to the Luau. We loved it! It was great! The food was wonderful. With the exception of the poi. That is some nasty stuff. But we all did try it just to say we did. Disgusting! Just so ya know. Can't even describe it. Just nasty. But everything else was delicious. And the show was great! Everyone should be able to experience one of those.
Hawaiian Beauties....
Playin at the beach..... The beaches were so beautiful. Just pristine blue waters. You could see from your neck down. It was just Beautiful. I love the beach!
We also spent the rest of the day at the Volcano. Wow! Did we enjoy this. There is just so much to see and do. We were not able to see the actual flowing lava because silly me only packed flip flops to save on room and you had to have tennis shoes. I so regretted that! But what can ya do. We did stay however and see it from afar and it was awesome. We got so lucky, they had to close the park the day after we went because the lava is getting to close to the top and is threatening to overflow. So if we had waited one more day we wouldn't have got to see it. This was really a highlight of our trip! I didn't realize how much I would enjoy it. It's just so interesting to see.
This is the Dole Plantation obviously. This was alot of fun. We rode a train around the plantation and to see and hear about how they grow them. They have some beautiful gardens there as well. They also have a giant maze but it was way too hot and we didn't do it. The girls wanted to but we didn't do it. We did enjoy some of their famous Pineapple Ice Cream though and it was quite delicious, very sweet.
This is the view from our hotel in Waikiki. Isn't it beautiful?

Little Updating...
Hey All!
I figured I'd post an update before we left. We are super excited. We leave on Wednesday for Hawaii. Whoo Hoo!!! I'm can't even tell you how excited I am. We all are actually. I still have a ton to get done and ready for. But I'll get there! William's parents are coming in tomorrow to watch the boys for us. Anyways, we will be back June 11th. I will try and post some pictures as soon as possible. I will try to post some with Williams phone if I can figure it out. I'm not that savvy though. But I will try!
The kids are all doing well. This is their last week of school. The girls actually only go today and tomorrow. They get to miss the last two days because of our trip. But they are excited about Summer. Hailey is jam packed with camps. She will be gone the entire month of June. Yea I know it's insane. We get back from Hawaii on Thursday the 11th and she leaves for youth camp on the 15th then comes back on the 20th and leaves for camp in Glorieta, New Mexico on the 21st for two weeks and we will pick her up on July 3rd. She's gonna be on tired girl. It's just the way it all fell. And then she has one more mission week a little later in the summer. Yipes! I feel like she won't be here all summer. Oh well, the joy of teens, huh? The others aren't near that busy just VBS and playing. Thank goodness....
One more thing I wanted to share and then I'll leave ya alone... I had some exciting news that I wanted to share. Ya know I've been going to the gym and exercising and such for awhile now. I've shared several stories about that fun adventure. Well, back in January I started trying to work on my weight and such... Well I haven't really talked about how that's going but I wanted to share that. I usually don't like to talk about this kind of stuff but I'm proud of myself and I've been working really hard at it and I know several of you have asked. As of this weekend I have lost 50 pounds and this is horribly embarrassing BUT I was wearing size 30/32 and now am wearing 22/24! :) So I'm super excited at the progress I've made in just five months. I still have a long way to go but I know I WILL get there! I'm doing things I never dreamed I would or could do. I can run on the tread mill. Can you imagine? Holy Moly! Not for very long but it feels good to know I can do these things. I'm not having to sleep with my breathing machine anymore. It's just been a huge blessing! I just feel good about myself! I just really can't explain it. Anyways, I just wanted to share my news. Thanks so much to those of you who have been supporting me and encouraging me along the way. I can never tell you how very much that has helped! I appreciate it so very much! I love ya! Okay I'm off to Hawaii in a much thinner me! he he he.... Well, a little thinner! :)

Freedom of the Press

2012 Scores
Press Status
Press Freedom Score (0 = best, 100 = worst)
Legal Environment(0 = best, 30 = worst)
Political Environment(0 = best, 40 = worst)
Economic Environment(0 = best, 30 = worst)
The constitution guarantees freedom of the media, and Namibia's press has generally enjoyed a relatively open environment. However, constitutional provisions relating to the protection of national security, public order, and public morality provide legal mechanisms for restricting media freedom. There is no access to information law, and the 1982 Protection of Information Act serves to limit the information that can be disclosed by government officials.
Defamation is a criminal offense under common law. A defamation suit brought against the leading independent daily, the Namibian, by a former municipal official remained ongoing at the year's end. In June, a journalist for the government-run Namibian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) was "fined" by a traditional authority for biased reporting, marking the first time a reporter was charged for such a violation. The journalist, who refused to pay the fine, garnered the attention and subsequent support of the Media Institute for Southern Africa (MISA) advocacy group, which condemned the decision, noting that the ruling went against "existing democratic principles as enshrined in the Namibian Constitution." Self-regulation of the media sector has developed slowly, with a media ombudsman established in 2009 to hear complaints against media practitioners.
In previous years, government and party leaders have issued harsh criticism and even threats against the independent press, and called for the establishment of a media council to regulate the activities and operations of the media. No such incidents were reported in 2011. Nevertheless, the head of Namibia's football association assaulted a journalist at a media event in May. Another journalist at the weekly tabloid Informante was suspended, and a sub-editor was fired, after the newspaper published an unflattering story about its parent company. The trial of four men accused of a violent attack in 2010 against investigative journalist John Grobler, including three prominent businessmen (and a son-in-law of former president Sam Nujoma) with close ties to the ruling South West Africa People's Organization (SWAPO) party, was ongoing as of the end of 2011. Some journalists and editors practice a degree of self-censorship.
Namibia features four daily newspapers, as well as five weeklies, one biweekly, and about a dozen monthly magazines. There are 25 radio stations and three television stations. Private broadcasters and independent newspapers usually operate without official interference. The NBC is the dominant player in the broadcast sector, and has come under increasing political pressure in recent years. In 2009, a high-ranking director was dismissed amid allegations that he backed the opposition, and the NBC canceled popular phone-in radio programs due to alleged insults against current president Hifikepunye Pohamba and Nujoma. In addition, opposition parties and press freedom organizations accused the NBC of heavily pro-SWAPO coverage during the 2009 election campaign. In 2011, the NBC was accused of inappropriately censoring the comments of one journalist who was critical of its management. Community radio remains underdeveloped, and high costs for television licenses limit the reach of that medium. Meanwhile, printing and distribution costs for print media also remain relatively high. In a positive development, in 2011 the government lifted its 10-year ban on advertising in the Namibian.
Approximately 12 percent of the population accessed the internet in 2011. There are no restrictions on internet sites, and many publications and organizations have websites that are critical of the government. However, the 2009 Communication Act includes a clause that allows for the interception of e-mails, short-messaging services (SMS), internet banking transactions, and telephone calls without a warrant.

Antimatter radiation is an energy form which can be extremely hazardous to humanoid life. A byproduct of antimatter, prolonged exposure to this radiation could cause radiation poisoning and serious degenerative health effects and, in high enough concentrations, could even disintegrate organic tissue. (VOY: "Revulsion", "Friendship One")
In 2375, The Doctor asked Harry Kim if he had come into contact with antimatter radiation as a possible explanation for why Kim's skin was glowing. (VOY: "The Disease")
In 2378, the crew of the USS Voyager, while on their first official mission for Starfleet since being stranded in the Delta Quadrant, encountered a planet whose atmosphere had been contaminated by high levels of antimatter radiation. As a result of their exposure, the planet's inhabitants had developed serious health problems including radiation poisoning, birth defects, and tissue damage. The Voyager crew soon came to learn that Friendship 1, a probe launched by Earth in 2067, was the cause of environmental damage. Encountering the probe, the inhabitants examined its antimatter-based propulsion system, extrapolated it and developed their own energy-generation technology based on antimatter. However, a containment failure released a large amount of antimatter, resulting in the radiation poisoning. Eventually, the Voyager crew were able to reverse the damage by utilizing specially-modified photon torpedoes to deliver a catalytic agent which created an isolytic chain reaction, recombining the nucleonic particles in the planet's atmosphere. (VOY: "Friendship One")

Safety Update
Separator Designed to Prevent Welding-Fume Filter Fires
Welding exhaust-system manufacturer Kemper America, Alpharetta, GA, has introduced the SparkTrap separator, designed to prevent filter fires and extend the life of welding exhaust filters. Welding and metal-fabricating operations routinely generate large amounts of glowing particles and flying sparks that can cause fires in exhaust filters. Kemper's SparkTrap separates sparks and larger items, such as cigarettes, before they reach the filter material.
The unit creates a swirling action that accelerates exhaust gases and sparks at speeds to 100 miles/hr. This high-speed swirling action, say Kemper officials, allows the separation of sparks and larger glowing particles from the airstream and redirects them into a collection tank. The collection tank can be removed and emptied even while the SparkTrap runs.Kemper America: 770/416-7070; www.kemperamerica.com

While Butte County"s hillsides are still green and lush, it"s interesting to ponder these conclusions from a University of Oregon study about wildfires.
The study tracked information from nearly 350 large wildfires that occurred between 2004 and 2008 that involved the U.S. Forest Service and cost more than $1 million to fight.
While in the short term, wildfires disrupted the labor market, from closing threatened businesses and displacing their workers, to shutting off roads and halting recreation and tourism opportunities.
Tourism is among the first impacts, considering that wildfires generally occur during the summers.
Despite those dollar impacts, the study says employment from fire suppression boosted the areas" economies.
Not only were there additional fighting professionals at work, but they purchased items from shoes and groceries to souvenirs and lodging, the study showed.
I can remember the devastating 2008 fires here in Butte County and the legions of firefighters who came from throughout California. Parking lots from motels and restaurants to gas stations and the fairgrounds were filled with their emergency vehicles.
There"s certainly something to the study"s conclusion, it"s just not very appealing. Then it makes you wonder why was the study even done?
I"m hearing grumblings from small employers with more than 50 employees about new California and U.S. Employment Notices posters they have to buy.
That makes two 2013 posters they"ve had to buy, at $27 a pop, at least in Chico.
But small businesses couldn"t avoid it.
The latest poster reflects changes in the Family/Medical Leave Act and needs to be up by March 8.
Changes to the law were made after the first round of employment posters went up.
It would be impossible to leave February without a doff of the cap to a Chicoan who"s made a huge difference, not only here but in Northern California.
BOB LINSCHEID officially stepped into his new role as executive director of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce last week, after decades in Chico.
He said it was a good career move for him, and I certainly believe that. But it is the north state"s loss.
There are few people in the business arena who"ve worn so many hats, from a chamber chief and general manager of a baseball team, to a guiding light to entrepreneurs.
He"ll continue to wear some of those hats in the Bay Area — OK, probably not baseball team executive — and continues to serve as chair of the board of trustees of the California State University system.
Linscheid represented business well here, as he will in San Francisco. But he will be missed.
Thanks and good luck, Bob.

This report is not meant to supply an objective, academic analysis. Instead its aim is to present a snapshot of views of people from Jewish communities in Europe, their experiences, concerns and expectations. In this way, the qualitative material from the interviews adds personal insights to the statistical and descriptive material in the main report. This report is complementary to the main report and should be read in conjunction with it.
Perceptions of Antisemitism in the European Union - Voices from Members of the European Jewish communities
This report complements the report "Manifestations of Antisemitism in the EU 2002-2003" and consists of material from in-depth interviews with 35 persons from Jewish communities in eight European countries, covering their own perceptions of antisemitism.
