I have really nice NVIDIA Quadro cards that work fantastically with After Effects and Davinci Resolve, but it seems like Avid doesn't support any drivers from the last few years (to back beofre Windows 10). I remember using a workaround that had me change one line of code before starting Avid that allowed the system to get past the error message and turn on and work (with possible bad issues with some effects that I don't care about). I'm pretty sure I found that workaround here in the forums somewhere but I can't find it.Also, if Avid doesn't support Nvidia, what DO they support? Or do i need to create a dual boot system, one for Avid, and one for everythig else?
I think you have outdated info. Avid do have recommended drivers packaged with their installer. But you can install other versions if you like. We regularly do, especially with systems that need Adobe and/or Resolve.
I'm just going off of what popped up when I did a fresh install of Avid and tried to start it. It refused to go past the warning screen and it gave me the name of the Nvidia Driver version that it supported and that version was a few years old and didn't support Windows 10.
@Dom So if you have newer Nvidia drivers, how do you get past that pop up?
Do you mean this? It may be of use if you get the drivers installed.C:\Program Files\Avid\Avid Media Composer\SupportingFiles\Config\DisqualifiedGpuBoards.txt
Are you talking about v7 or v8?
If I remember correctly, you can ignore and disable the warning.
@ShadenFreude I think you're getting close. I did it over a year ago - maybe two so i don't remember the details . I think it may have been a txt file, yeah, and I think I had to change one line of it (i forget if it was deleting the line or altering the line) and then it would get past the warnign screen.@Dom Q. Silverio. It's the latest version 2018.9 I think. (I think that's also known as 8.8.9) I'm not i front of the computer to say for sure. I was unable to ignore the warning.
@ShadenFreude I actually think that's the right file, but it doesn't list my card or driver as being not acceptable. Is there another similar file?
I think it was a txt file in the avid system file and you added your card version and it stopped the warning
Tom Pearson
Director/Writer Big Picture Films
Sound Designer/Sound Editor Hollywood Sounds
@Tome Pearson Yeah, that's the way it used to be. They had a "qualified card" file, but now they have a "Disqualified card" file, and you erase your card from that list. But neither my card nor my driver are on the list. Unless there is another list somewhere. As Shadenfreude said, the editable disqualified list can be found at C:\Program Files\Avid\Avid Media Composer\SupportingFiles\Config\DisqualifiedGpuBoards.txt

The historic city Santa Fe embodies a culture so rich and dynamic, that it infuses every aspect of the city, including the architecture, the food, the art, the shopping, and the people themselves. Dating back to the mid 19th century, traders have used Santa Fe as a hub for trade of essential and luxury items, a tradition that is still alive and strong today. Spend a day shopping and Santa Fe, and you'll experience a cultural avalanche of priceless goods and unique handmade items, including unique Native American goods. Like most things in Santa Fe, shopping experiences are unique, occurring in small boutiques, trading posts or large open air markets where you get a chance to meet artisans face to face. Book your room at our luxury bed and breakfast today, and getaway to Santa Fe for a weekend to see what sorts of treasures you can bring find.
Shopping the Streets of Santa Fe
What sets Santa fe shopping apart from that found in other cities is not the sheer quantity of shops and markets to visit. Rather, it's the qualities found within, and the originality and entrepreneurship displayed by each owner. Meandering the shops of Santa fe is a wonderful to explore the city in its own right, as you'll find shops wrapped around the historic city Plaza, down its side streets, tucked into historic adobe buildings and upstairs in 19th Century Victorian buildings. Walking Santa Fe's narrow streets and relishing in the originality and unique treasures found behind doors and windows is one of the simple pleasures that come from a day spent shopping in Santa Fe. The 400 year old downtown district around the Plaza is without a doubt one of the most interesting shopping areas in the country, and may be a wonderful place to find Santa Fe's signature turquoise jewelry.
Perhaps you'll find the perfect piece of jewelry for your collection at The Golden Eye or Ortega's on the Plaza. The Rainbow Man is a great place to stop in for local and Mexican Folk Art, as well as Native American jewelry and crafts. When you're done browsing the shops downtown, then head on up for more shopping along Santa Fe's historic Canyon Road, or even the Railyard District where you'll find the new Railyard Artisan Market. No matter where you choose to go, there is no shortage of unique treasures to be found in the shops of Santa Fe. With so many great places to explore, we know you'll enjoy your stay in the City Different.

Vacation Look 3 + Colors of the Old City/
Romper - Topshop (similar here)//Belt - H&M//Sandals - Sam Edelman
Kyoto is the old city of Japan. As soon as you arrive here, you immediately feel the sense of peace and calm that envelopes this city. The centuries of history that are embedded in these grounds are palpable. It is a place where you can get in touch with old Japan, and all of its forests and temples. The surroundings narrate visual stories of a strong culture, rich with colorful art and beautifully crafted materials, and I wanted to share some of its beauty with you.
This romper is one of my old favorites, not only because of it's versatility, but also because I remember exactly when I bought it- the day Topshop came to the US and opened right here in NYC. For that reason it's got a special place in my heart. It's an easy piece to throw on for travel, and can be worn throughout the summer to city rooftop parties or more casual barbecues. I'll usually belt it, which is necessary with a piece that's both loose-fitting and all print, in order to break things up and keep from looking frumpy.
Do you have an old favorite that you like to wear all summer?

The Royal Photographic Society (RPS) has set up an analogue imaging group in response, it says, to a
'renaissance' in film photography.
[Photo credit: Stephen Spencer Smith]
The new photography group says the move is in response to the medium still being widely taught in colleges and universities, and schools reopening their darkrooms, for example.
The formation was also prompted by the 'significant level of response' the RPS says it received – from members and non-members – to an RPS Journal article about the importance of film, and the creative potential of the traditional medium.
The group's inaugural meeting is set to take place on Saturday 31 January, from 10.30am-4pm, at College Hall, Lichfield, Staffordshire WS13 7LD.
Attendance costs £7 for RPS members, and £10 for non-members.
The programme for the day includes photographing Lichfield Cathedral, and a talk about film and the darkroom.
For full details see the group's website.

When it comes to Christmas, every family has special traditions they call their own. In Milwaukee, family traditions include the Milwaukee Ballet performance of The Nutcracker, the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's A Christmas Carol, the BMO Harris (formerly M&I Bank) window displays, ice skating at Red Arrow Park, Jingle Bus to view the holiday lights, and of course, Candy Cane Lane.
But, there has always been one thing missing when celebrating the holidays in Milwaukee. While we are a German town by nature, we have never had a Christkindlmarket. These open-air markets with their German roots have been popping up around the world in places including Chicago, Denver and Baltimore. In 2013, Milwaukee Food & City Tours is proud to be a driving force behind the start-up of the Christkindl Milwaukee Market. We are doing so because we want to bring home the traditional German Christmas market tradition to Milwaukee.
The tradition of the Christkindlmarket can be traced back to the year 1294 when in Vienna they held what was known as a "December market." The market was an opportunity for farmers to come into town to shop and at the same time as offering their wares. With the reformation of the church in the 16th century the markets changed. Saint Nikolaus was replaced by the Christkindl; Nuremberg was the very first city to hold a Christkindlmarket. As time passed the market developed into a celebration and embodiment of the holiday season. To this day, Christkindlmarkets light up communities with fun, laughter, friends, family, good food, and drink during the advent season. Towns throughout Germany and Eastern Europe hold markets unique to their community. Local tradesmen line the streets with their handmade wares that display distinctive regional characteristics. Although seasonal markets are held year round throughout Germany, the Christkindlmarket is an especially joyous event because it brings light and laughter to the cold, dark winter season.
Milwaukee residents may already be familiar with this concept because they have traveled to Chicago for a traditional Christkindlmarket experience. The Chicago market, which takes place in Daley Plaza in downtown Chicago, is known for bringing international traditions to Chicago as is the closest Christkindlmarket to Milwaukee.
In 2013, the inaugural Christkindl Milwaukee Market will be on Thursday, November 21, 2013 – Sunday, November 24, 2013 in downtown Milwaukee outside of Best Place on the Pabst Brewery site. Once visitors arrive at the Christkindl Milwaukee Market, they will be able to explore traditional timber houses with Christmas trees and décor, while shopping many ornament and Christmas vendors, and eating and drinking traditional German items. After the Market opens with a keg tapping ceremony, carriage rides, breakfast/photos with Santa, cookie decorating sessions, live performances, and a prayer service will be available throughout the Market. Of special note, the Market on Friday, November 22, 2013 will be welcoming field trips and provide unique educational and tasting opportunities for German high school students throughout the day.
Milwaukee Food & City Tours will again be offering the ever popular Christmas Around Milwaukee Bakery Bus tour, plus the Christmas Lights & Desserts Bus tour, throughout the holiday season. For ways to celebrate the holidays with Milwaukee Food & City Tours, including details about the Christkindl Milwaukee Market, please call or email us at email@example.com.
If you haven't already done so, please be sure to become a fan of the ChristkindlMKE Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/christkindlmke as well as the Milwaukee Food & City Tours page at http://www.facebook.com/mkefoodtour

Most expensive holiday destination revealed
A new study by flight comparison website Skyscanner has revealed that France is the most expensive country to go to on holiday, despite the public's perception that it is cheaper to visit than Dubai, Japan and the Nordic countries.
The research looked at the cost of various items including a coffee, a beer, a meal, accommodation and car hire in 30 different destinations. France finished top ahead of Switzerland, Denmark, Brazil and Russia, when comparing holiday prices which excluded flights. When flights were included, France is still the third most expensive country to visit, higher than Switzerland, Australia and New Zealand.
The findings were in contrast to a separate survey of 1,500 people in the UK, also by Skyscanner, which showed that most thought that Sweden would be the most expensive holiday destination, with Norway and Switzerland in second and third place. France was ranked just ninth by those who took part in the research.
The most expensive country to visit overall including flights is Japan. In contrast, Cyprus is the least expensive, before and after flights are taken into consideration.
Despite this, most people perceive Cyprus as quite expensive, ranking it 14th most expensive out of the 30 countries surveyed.

Pipeline Development Strategy
Arrowhead is focused on developing innovative drugs for diseases with a genetic basis, characterized by the overproduction of one or more proteins. The depth and versatility of our RNAi technologies enable us to address conditions in virtually any therapeutic area and pursue disease targets that are not otherwise druggable by small molecules and biologics.
ARO-AAT is being developed to treat the liver disease associated with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), a rare genetic disorder that severely damages the liver and lungs of affected individuals.
ARO-AAT is designed to knock down the hepatic production of the mutant alpha-1 antitrypsin (Z-AAT) protein, the cause of progressive liver disease in AATD patients. Reducing production of the inflammatory Z-AAT protein is expected to halt the progression of liver disease and potentially allow it to regenerate and repair.
AATD is a rare genetic disorder associated with liver disease in children and adults and pulmonary disease in adults. AAT is primarily synthesized and secreted by liver hepatocytes. Its function is to inhibit enzymes that can break down normal connective tissue. The most common disease variant, the Z mutant, has a single amino acid substitution that results in improper folding of the protein. The mutant protein cannot be effectively secreted and accumulates in globules inside the hepatocytes. This triggers continuous hepatocyte injury, leading to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Individuals with the homozygous PiZZ genotype have severe deficiency of functional AAT leading to pulmonary disease and liver disease. Lung disease is frequently treated with AAT augmentation therapy. However, augmentation therapy does nothing to treat liver disease, and there is no specific therapy for hepatic manifestations. There is a significant unmet need as liver transplant, with its attendant morbidity and mortality, is currently the only available cure.
ARO-APOC3 is designed to reduce production of Apolipoprotein C-III (apoC-III), a component of triglyceride rich lipoproteins (TRLs) including VLDL and chylomicrons and is a key regulator of triglyceride metabolism. The company believes that knocking down the hepatic production of apoC-III may result in reduced VLDL synthesis and assembly, enhanced breakdown of TRLs, and better clearance of VLDL and chylomicron remnants.
Elevated triglyceride levels are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Severely elevated triglycerides (often over 2,000 mg/dL) in patients with familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS), a rare genetic disorder, can result in potentially fatal, acute pancreatitis.
ARO-ANG3 is designed to reduce production of angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3), a liver synthesized inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase and endothelial lipase. ANGPTL3 inhibition has been shown to lower serum LDL, serum and liver triglyceride and has genetic validation as a novel target for cardiovascular disease.
Hyperlipidemia and hypertriglyceridemia are risk factors for atherosclerotic coronary heart disease and cardiovascular events.
ARO-HSD is designed to reduce production of HSD17B13, a hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase involved in the metabolism of hormones, fatty acids and bile acids. Human genetic studies indicate that loss-of-function mutations in HSD17B13 provide risk-reduction for development of both alcohol related and non-alcohol related liver disease.
ARO-ENaC is designed to reduce production of the epithelial sodium channel alpha subunit (αENaC) in the airways of the lung. In cystic fibrosis patients, increased ENaC activity contributes to airway dehydration and reduced mucociliary transport.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rare disease caused by a genetic mutation that leads to mucus buildup in the lungs and pancreas. In CF lung disease, patients can have difficulty breathing and experience frequent and persistent lung infections.
ARO-HIF2 is being developed as a promising new drug candidate for the treatment of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). ARO-HIF2 is designed to inhibit the production of HIF-2α, which has been linked to tumor progression and metastasis in ccRCC. Arrowhead believes it is an attractive target for intervention because over 90% of ccRCC tumors express a mutant form of the Von Hippel-Landau protein that is unable to degrade HIF-2α, leading to its accumulation during tumor hypoxia and promoting tumor growth.
ARO-HIF2 is Arrowhead's first therapeutic candidate delivered using a new extra-hepatic delivery vehicle.
Renal cell carcinoma is a type of kidney cancer that originates in the cells that line the small tubes that filter waste material from the blood. RCC is the most common type of kidney cancer accounting for more than 90% of cases with approximately 50,000 diagnoses in the U.S. each year.
Unfortunately, patients with advanced stages of RCC have a 5-year survival rate of only 12-25%. Surgical resection is the mainstay of current treatment while chemotherapy and radiation have not been successful at prolonging survival. The treatment options for patients with metastatic disease are extremely limited.
JNJ-3989, formerly ARO-HBV, is being developed in collaboration with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to be a potentially curative therapy for patients with chronic hepatitis B infection. JNJ-3989 silences all HBV gene products and intervenes upstream of the reverse transcription process where current standard-of-care nucleotide and nucleoside analogues act. The company believes this will allow the body's natural immune defenses to clear the virus and lead to a functional cure.
Chronic hepatitis B infection is the most common serious liver infection. Current drugs suppress viral replication but rarely lead to a cure and therefore must be taken indefinitely. Developing curative therapy is a priority.
There are 16 million people with chronic hepatitis B in the U.S. and Western Europe and 300 million people worldwide. In the immune tolerant phase of chronic infection, which can last for many years, the infected person typically produces very high levels of viral DNA and viral antigens. However, the infection is not cytotoxic and the carrier may have no symptoms of illness. Over time, the ongoing production of viral antigens causes inflammation and necrosis, leading to cirrhosis and liver cancer (HCC). Hepatitis B is responsible for 80% of primary liver cancers.
The current standard of care for treatment of chronic HBV infection is a daily oral dose of nucleotide/nucleoside analogs (NUCs) or a regimen of interferon injections for approximately one year. NUCs are generally well tolerated, but patients may need lifetime treatment because viral replication often rebounds upon cessation of treatment. Interferon therapeutics can result in a functional cure in around 10% of some patient types, but treatment is often associated with significant side effects, including severe flu-like symptoms, bone marrow suppression, and autoimmune disorders.
AMG 890 (formerly ARO-LPA) is designed to reduce production of apolipoprotein A, a key component of lipoprotein(a), which has been genetically linked with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, independent of cholesterol and LDL levels. Amgen acquired a worldwide, exclusive license in September 2016, to develop and commercialize AMG 890.
Elevated lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), is widely viewed as a key risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis, thrombosis and stroke.
ARO-JNJ1 is being developed against an undisclosed liver-expressed target as part of a research collaboration and option agreement with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

No one expects to be in an auto accident. At our firm, we use a different term. We call it an "auto collision"; because unfortunately, most accidents are not accidents, but acts of negligence, of a driver failing to obey the rules of the road.
At some point during your life, you will likely become involved in an auto collision, as a driver, passenger, or pedestrian/cyclist. Auto collisions come in all variations, from simple bumps in the road with no bodily injuries, to serious collisions involving total vehicle loss and significant bodily injuries. It's a good idea to think in advance about what you will do and say, should you find yourself involved in a collision. Here are some general things to think about:
Minor Collisions
For the purpose of this article a "minor collision" is one in which there is little to no damage to the vehicles and little to no bodily injury. After a minor collision, exit your vehicle if you can do so safely. Call the police immediately, and tell them where you are located. Once at the scene, the officer may advise you to move the vehicles.
The police officer will issue a report on what happened, based on the testimony of the parties and witnesses. Usually, most people involved in minor collisions will be truthful and reasonable. Each driver should give the other identification and insurance information. It may be advisable in busy traffic to move the vehicles out of the middle of the road into a safer area near the scene.
People sometimes leave the scene of a collision. There are many reasons people leave the scene of a collision. They may have drugs or illegal weapons in their vehicle; they may not have insurance; they may have an outstanding warrant for their arrest; they may be afraid of deportation if they are an illegal immigrant. They may be intoxicated on drugs or alcohol. So you before giving anyone a chance to drive off, make sure you take reasonable steps to identify them. Take note of their driver's license number, address and vehicle tag number before moving the two vehicles to the safer location. If they refuse to exchange information, then do not move the vehicles, and contact police.
Hit and Run Collisions: The "John Doe" Driver
If a driver leaves the scene of a collision, gather as much information on the make, model, color of the vehicle and description of the driver; and if you can, take down the license plate number. It is a good idea to follow the vehicle that is leaving the scene. You never know what or who you may encounter in the process. So try to relax and let the authorities and your own insurance company take care of things. The South Carolina Financial Responsibility Act requires that every automobile insurance policy carry at a minimum liability and uninsured motorist coverage (UM) as follows: $25,000.00 per person/$50,000.00 per accident for all persons injured/ and $25,000.00 property damage coverage. Your policy may be for more than minimum limits coverage. Additional UM coverage, over and above the 25/50/25 minimum limits amount, in amounts up to the limit of your liability coverage, must be offered by your insurance company at the outset of your policy and at every renewal date.
So, if you have your own South Carolina auto policy, and an escapee "John Doe" vehicle leaves the scene, relax, and know that you can simply contact your insurance company and make a "John Doe" claim for damages under your own UM coverage. If you are run off of the road and there is no evidence of contact between your vehicle and the John Doe vehicle, then you must provide an affidavit to the insurance company from an independent witness in making your John Doe UM claim. This is a protective measure to avoid fraudulent claims in one vehicle accidents. If there is physical evidence of contact between the vehicles, then an affidavit is not necessary; but take down the identifying information from any available witnesses, and provide their names to police and your own insurance company as part of your UM claim.
Significant Collisions with Injuries to You or Occupants in Your Vehicle or other Vehicles
In serious auto collisions, stay put in your vehicle, unless there is an indication of leaking fuel or other hazard, such as fire. If you are seriously injured, trying to move can cause you further injury; so stay put until help arrives. The same goes for others. If you are able to get out of your vehicle, do so; but do not try to remove injured people from your vehicle or other vehicles, as this may cause them further injury. Wait until trained emergency medical personnel can assist with proper equipment for moving injured persons. One wrong move can mean the difference between an emergency room visit and medical follow up for an injured person, or permanent paralysis due to a serious spinal injury. Be very careful and use common sense. If you are taken away by medical personnel and/or unable to communicate, don't worry. The police will follow up with you with information you will need. Just relax and worry about getting better. Everything will work itself out.
Not Necessary to Prosecute the at-fault party in Traffic Court
A conviction in traffic court (a criminal proceeding) for a ticket is generally not admissible in a civil court of law. Your claims of property damage and bodily injuries are civil claims and will be tried in civil court if not settled. So in clear liability cases, it is not to your advantage to go to court to testify in traffic court against the at-fault party, since the results of the proceeding will never be admitted into evidence in a civil court.
However in questionable liability cases, it is sometimes helpful to go to traffic court to understand the person's testimony and the testimony of witnesses to the collision, who may appear. Many police refrain from ticketing at-fault parties following a collision; and instead, simply let the insurance companies for the parties work things out. If you are subpoenaed to court, you must comply with the subpoena and be there at the place and time specified.
Photograph and Document with a Diary
Obtain photographs of the damages to your vehicle and others involved, if you are able; or ask someone to do so. Do not rely on body shop personnel to take care of this.
It is good idea to keep a brief diary following a collision to take note of aches and pains you may have, limitations on activities of daily living, and other situations and adverse effects of the collision. After several months, it is easy to forget the details of everything you went through in the days, weeks and months following a significant collision involving injury.
Watch Your Temper
It is quite aggravating to have another driver collide with your vehicle (or you as a cyclist or pedestrian), as a result of violating the rules of the road, such as following too closely, driving too fast for conditions, running stop signs, running red lights. The list of possible violations and mishaps are almost endless. Just remember, every thing you say or do that is negative or violent, will be held against you. You may end up in front of a judge and jury one day in a civil or criminal court of law, testifying about what happened and what was said by you at the scene; and other people will testify about things you said or did at the scene. So do your best to keep your cool. Take the high road, and know that no matter how bad or egregious the situation may be, things will get resolved. Arguing, cursing and committing acts of violence at the scene can be costly mistakes.
Medical Care Following A Collision
Collisions come by surprise; often during times of economic stress. Do not be concerned about the cost of medical care if you are injured. First, regardless of fault, your health should always be your first concern. In South Carolina, the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) is legally obligated to provide you treatment and transportation to a hospital of your choice; and once at the emergency room, the hospital is legally obligated to give you basic care to stabilize your injuries. If the collision was not your fault, these financial matters will more likely than not be resolved by auto insurance policies, so relax and get the medical care you need. Even if the collision was your fault, get the medical care you need. Your health and well-being is most important. It is advisable to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP), or Medical Payments (Med Pay) on your own policy, in addition to liability, underinsured motorist, and uninsured motorist coverage.
If you lack health insurance, there are health care facilities that will treat you if you sign a lien, allowing them to get paid from the proceeds of your insurance settlement. Most health care providers require that you have an attorney, who will ensure the lien is honored; and an attorney can assist in negotiating the lien, should there be issues with the case settlement, or other circumstances warranting a possible reduction in medical lien(s).
Private Health Insurance and/or Government Benefits Such as Medicare
If health care providers will accept private health insurance and/or Medicare, including Medicare supplemental insurance, then use it. Companies such as Blue Cross Blue Shield have provider agreements that limit medical facility reimbursement and require the providers to write off the difference, leaving you with a zero balance, except for co-pays. For example, an MRI facility might charge 1800.00 for an MRI scan, a common scan used to diagnose injuries to virtually every body part. However, Blue Cross Blue Shield may only pay the facility $500.00 for that scan. So instead of a balance owing, Blue Cross will write off the other $1300.00. However, Blue Cross will assert a "subrogation lien" and require repayment of a portion of monies you get from the liability insurance company at settlement or trial. The same goes with Medicare and other governmental insurance.
The bottom line is after all is said and done, you can put more money in your pocket by using health insurance or Medicare. The trend of late is for health care providers to refuse to accept these insurance policies, and instead, hire a law firm to negotiate the balance with the attorney for the injured party. The reimbursement rates to hospitals by Medicare and insurance can sometimes be low, so to maximize return on the provider's charges, they will sometimes refuse to file health insurances and assert a lien for their full amount of charges; then the charges get negotiated by a percentage off, usually 25% to 30%.
Call an Experienced Personal Injury Attorney in Serious Collisions
If your collision involves moderate to heavy property damage to your vehicle and injuries that persist more than a few days, it is a good idea to at least consult with an experienced personal injury attorney.

Although this band looks and sounds like a pack of psychedelic outlaw bikers heavily influenced by the Doors, the members of Fraction were actually working class Christian rockers from LA. The entire album was cut live in under three hours at the Whitney Recording Studio in Glendale California back in 1971, and released on a tiny Christian music label named Angelus. First takes, no overdubs, live and on fire.
My favorite track is "Come Out Of Her," an epic of fire-and-brimstone biblical proportions about an exorcism. "Extend your thumbs and burn the darkness out of her/ Come out of her!" After singer Jim Beach wails those words and the vocal trails off over a chasm of old testament guitar horror, you'll be picking your mortal jaw off the floor. Loud please!
I first captured this psychedelic beast of an LP in the early 80s in an apartment near Sixth Avenue and Bleecker Street. A friend who managed bands was downsizing his record collection and moving west. The collection was about 1000 LPs. I started in the Z's and worked backwards pulling Yardbirds, Nazz, and nothing more obscure than that.
Then I hit the F's. the instant I pulled Fraction off the shelf I was overcome with that rush archeologists get when they uncover a tomb full of gold. No way this isn't a big one. When my friend dropped it on the turntable I realized I'd actually underestimated how big.
There were only 200 copies made. My buddy had one because he managed a later country rock band that the bassist, Vic Hemme, was in. He offered it to me for $60, which was a hefty sum at that time for an unknown LP. After a couple years passed I'd still not heard of another copy, so in 86 I tracked down one of the guitar players, Bob Meinel, and got four sealed copies from him for $100 each. I wish I had them now: sealed copies could easily pull $5000!
The red plastic window sleeve was directly influenced by the Doors' "L.A. Woman," which came out the same year. A bit of Jim Morrison's "L'America" is quoted on "Moonblood," and the heavy Doors vibe is undeniable. Remember, this is a genuine Christian band, but there are no smiley face hymns: this is dark and human. The message here is delivered in hard rock psych language, and it matches any guitar band of the era. When I asked Meinel how they came up with the name he said it was humility in the presence of the divine: "We're just a fraction of that."
Assembly line production of the Fraction reissue, handmade with love at the Mexican Summer headquarters.
After numerous bootlegs over the years, an official reissue with a bonus 10-inch disc has been issued through Mexican Summer. More people probably hear Fraction on one day in 2012 than did during their entire run in the early 70s. It was even playing as I walked into a bar in Helsinki last year.
This is generally considered the Holy Grail of all Christian psychedelic rock LPs. For proof, head to the peaks of the longest track on the record, "Eye Of The Hurricane." You'll be looking around the room to assess the damage.
Paul is in the deeply heavy psych/fuzz rock band Endless Boogie. They are the secret favorite group of every good musician in New York.

MaryAnn McKibben Dana Idylwood Presbyterian Church April 20, 2014 Easter Sunday Matthew 28:1-10
28:1 After the sabbath, as the first day of the week was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. 28:2 And suddenly there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord, descending from heaven, came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. 28:3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. 28:4 For fear of him the guards shook and became like dead men. 28:5 But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid; I know that you are looking for Jesus who was crucified. 28:6 He is not here; for he has been raised, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. 28:7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples, 'He has been raised from the dead, and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him.' This is my message for you." 28:8 So they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 28:9 Suddenly Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!" And they came to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him. 28:10 Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me."

I have a quiz for you… let's see whether your brains are sluggish from too much Easter candy. What is distinctive about these phrases?
Do, O God, no evil deed! Live on! Do good!
Ma is as selfless as I am.
Was it a car or a cat I saw?
Lonely Tylenol.
A man, a plan, a canal: Panama.
Yes, these are all palindromes. Palindromes are words or phrases that read the same forwards or backwards. So if you read any of these phrases from right to left (and disregarding the spaces) you'll see the same phrase.
What you may not know is that this is palindrome week. All week long the dates have been the same backwards and forwards. Read them left to right or right to left, the numbers are the same:
Each of these dates reads the same frontwards or backwards. 4-1-2-1-4. And the same would be true the next day. And the next and the next, all week long, April 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19. (Yes, it takes a special kind of nerd to figure this out. I'm just the kind of nerd who enjoys it.)
There's something very satisfying about a palindrome. It's very clever when you spot it. There's an internal pattern to it. Whichever direction you start reading, you'll end up with the same message. It's like a seesaw that's perfectly balanced. There's this sense of perfection—a statement that's the same no matter how you look at it.
But you will notice that palindrome week ended today, April 20. 4-20-14 is no longer a palindrome. That pattern has been broken.
And that's not just a numerical statement. That is a theological statement.
Because today isn't just April 20, it's Easter Sunday, Resurrection Sunday, the day that breaks the old pattern. All of the days leading up to this one had their own logic and coherence. The world worked a certain way, backwards, forwards, however you looked at it… but on Resurrection Sunday, everything is turned upside down.
* * *
It is daybreak in Jerusalem. The sun is almost ready to spill its gold on the horizon. Maybe there is a mist on the ground, but it is not yet light enough for that mist to bathe the world in a holy glow. Instead that mist hangs over the city and countryside like a shroud.
It is daybreak, after the longest and saddest sabbath Mary and her friends had ever had.
Their friend and teacher had been arrested, beaten, humiliated and executed. His body had been anointed for burial and placed in a cave. The women make their way there, knowing what they will find: a stone rolled in front of the mouth of that cave with all the finality and silence of the whole world.
And as if the stone were not enough, there are guards. The poor women can't even grieve in privacy, they have to deal with these agents of Rome, these smirking guards, who may have been the same ones who shoved a crown of thorns on Jesus' head, the ones who divvied up his clothes two days before.
And yet the women come. In Matthew's telling, they don't come to anoint the body—that's already been done. They don't come with any purpose whatsoever.
They just come to Jesus' grave, for the same reason that we visit cemeteries clutching tulips and hyacinths, or listen to the song that we danced to at the wedding, or make the Coca-Cola ham just like mother used to.
Because that's what love and grief require of us.
But the women don't have any expectation that something unexpected will happen. They know what they'll find there. Grief, it seems, is its own sad palindrome—look at it frontwards, or backwards, it's still the same message:
Dead is dead. The lost ones stay lost. There is no second chance. The person is gone and there's no bringing them back.
Except. Except. Except the pattern gets broken this one time. This one time, two thousand years ago, a messenger comes and rolls up his dazzling white sleeves. This one time this ambassador from the heavens puts his shoulder against that rock and strains and grunts to move it… or maybe he just flicks it with the power of his angelic fingers. This one time he climbs atop the rock, straddles it like a child and says, "Look, Mary. Look. He's. Not. Here."
This one time, life stares death in the face and said, "Not today you don't."
I don't know how it happened. I don't even know what happened. But it has to be more than just the miracle of spring. It has to be more than daffodils stretching their green stalks into the air, and baby birds in nests, and caterpillars turning into butterflies.
It has to be more than that. Otherwise there's no reason for us to be here. We've got better things to do with a beautiful Sunday morning. There are lawns to be mowed; there are bags of mulch stacked along the driveway, waiting to be raked over the hard soil of winter. There's that email that's been sitting in your inbox for far too long; you really should answer it. And hey, those checkbooks aren't going to balance themselves.
And yet here we are. And we're here because we don't know how it happened, but we believe---we hope---we know (we hope)… that it's more than just a metaphor.
Something happened that one time—resurrection happened that one time—and because it did, we look at every other death and grief and dead end and heartache and illness and loss and struggle and say, This is not the end. This is not over, not near over.
* * *
Several years ago I was at a church conference. It was the year after my father died and that anniversary was weighing heavily on me. One of the speakers was praying a prayer before communion, and it was going on in the way that those prayers sometimes do, until she got to this line.
Now I know, I know that what was written in her script was "Love is stronger than death." And it is. And that's what today is about.
But what she mistakenly said was, "Love is stranger than death." And it is. And that's what today is really about.
Death is death, it follows the rules. People live, then they die. Beginning and ending, it's the logic of the world. But love, especially Easter love, is strange. It is unpredictable. Love can bring life out of death; love can move a stone away from a tomb and empty it of its contents; love can inspire a band of women to feel joy and fear. Fear and joy.
They don't get it; they're a little freaked out by it… but they like it, and they can't wait to tell the others. The pattern has been broken.
* * *
It's been twenty years since Hutus took up hate and weapons against their Tutsi neighbors in Rwanda, leading to a genocide that claimed some one million victims. In the two decades since those terrible events, the heartache has continued and in some cases intensified.
You can see the heartache on their faces. Pieter Hugo took these photos twenty years after the genocide.
What you see here are perpetrators standing with their victims. [Click here to view]
Yes, reconciliation has also occurred. An organization called AMI has brought together Hutus and Tutsis for counseling and training, culminating in the perpetrator's formal request for forgiveness. If forgiveness is granted by the survivor, the perpetrator and his family and friends typically bring a basket of offerings, usually food and sorghum or banana beer. The accord is sealed with song and dance.
Here are some of their voices.
"Mother Mukabutera Caesarea could not have known I was involved in the crimes against her, but I told her what happened. When she granted me pardon, all the things in my heart that had made her look at me like a wicked man faded away."
"The day I thought of asking pardon, I felt unburdened and relieved. I had lost my humanity because of the crime I committed, but now I am like any human being."
"I used to hate him. When he came to my house and knelt down before me and asked for forgiveness, I was moved by his sincerity. Now, if I cry for help, he comes to rescue me. When I face any issue, I call him."
"After I was chased from my village and Dominique and others looted it, I became homeless and insane. Later, when he asked my pardon, I said: 'I have nothing to feed my children. Are you going to help raise my children? Are you going to build a house for them?' The next week, Dominique came with some survivors and former prisoners who perpetrated genocide. There were more than 50 of them, and they built my family a house. Ever since then, I have started to feel better. I was like a dry stick; now I feel peaceful in my heart, and I share this peace with my neighbors." [source]
This is not what we expect. Hutus hated Tutsis and viciously attacked them. So of course Tutsis should hate them right back for what they did. It's a palindrome---backwards, forwards, however you read it: hate begets hate. That's what we expect to happen. That's the way the world works. What goes around comes around. Someone hurts you, you hurt them right back. If your enemy has a weapon, you build a bigger one.
But love is stranger than death.
And this one time, a long time ago, the pattern got broken.
And because it happened that one time, it can happen all the time, again and again and again.

I just want to give a huge, heartfelt THANK YOU to every single person who reached out to me in one form or another after my last blog – whether it was via Facebook, Twitter, commenting on my blog, email, or text. You all humble me to no end! The blog was literally my homework to help myself heal from the pain of my loss, but in the end it became so much more! It became an opportunity for us to share our grief, to relate to, encourage, and learn from to one another, and in the end reminded all of us that we are in this together. We are NOT alone! We are NEVER alone!
Your love, encouragement, support has absolutely helped me in my healing process (my therapist said I finally seemed like myself for the first time since she's been meeting with me). Your overwhelmingly kind response also allowed me to see how important it is to stay true to my voice in my writing, continue to make everything I express on this blog (and hopefully in future publications) personal, honest, and relational. I especially appreciate people who took off their own masks and told their stories publicly. I admire your courage to connect to others and myself while dealing with your own personal grief.
Every single one of you is beautiful and loved, and I'm so blessed to have connected with you! My healing has definitely begun. Thank you for being a part of that, I'm forever grateful.
In the near future, I hope to explore some more light-hearted fare. I can't speak for anyone else, but I think I've done enough crying for now. I'm a Libra and I need balance. It's time for some joy and laughter.
"Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy; then they said among the nations, 'The Lord has done great things for them.'" Psalm 126:2
What has filled your heart with joy and/or laughter lately?

Above: Two photographs show the ongoing construction of the 9/11 Memorial with the first (left) displaying the beginning steps of reconstruction at the World Trade Center site in 2007, while the second photo shows the site as it looks today. (Photos by Joe Woolhead)
Since construction officially began on the National September 11 Memorial and Museum in 2006, the World Trade Center site has transformed.
Where one used to see mostly mounds of dirt and tons of construction equipment, now two structurally defined Memorial pools are visible along with construction on One World Trade Center, the skyscraper commonly known as the Freedom Tower.
The photograph on the left, above, shows an aerial view of 9/11 Memorial construction in August 2007. At that time, 580 metric tons of jumbo steel l-beams, to be used for the memorial and museum, had just arrived at the Port of Savannah, Ga., after a 4,000-mile journey from Luxembourg in central Europe. The steel didn't officially arrive on site until later that year. More than 8,000 tons of steel are being used to construct the 9/11 Memorial and 100 percent of the steel has since been installed at the site.
The photograph on the right, taken last month by resident photographer Joe Woolhead, shows the highly anticipated construction of the North and South memorial pools, where dark granite panels are currently being placed. The pools are about an acre in size, and they are situated within the footprints of the original towers. Ten large pumps will create 40 pounds of pressure to circulate 52,000 gallons of water per minute for the artificial waterfalls. These will be the largest man-made waterfalls in the country.
The 9/11 Memorial will open Sept. 11, 2011.
By Meghan Walsh, Communications Associate for the 9/11 Memorial

Hey, want to go San Francisco with me and (brace yourself) Non Birding Bill?
That's right, we are leading a trip to San Francisco for some birding and sightseeing--imagine it pygmy nuthatches, acorn woodpeckers, Heerman's gulls, the wild parrots of Telegraph Hill by day and China Town by night! We're even going to go to a restaurant that features "gender illusioninsts." Oooo. Ahhh.
We've had great times in San Francisco and we want to take you with us, and the beauty is that if you bring your non birding significant other, that's okay--it's not all birds and if you want to do something else while we enjoy the birds of San Francisco--you can! The trip is January 31 - February 4, 2008--a perfect balmy getaway for winter.

The Sport of Kings: Kinship, Class and Thoroughbred Breeding in Newmarket
Cambridge University Press, Aug 29, 2002 - Social Science - 186 pages
The Sport of Kings is an ethnography of the British racing industry based upon two years of participant observation in Newmarket, the international headquarters of flat racing. Racing in Britain provides a lens through which ideas of class, status, tradition and hierarchy can be examined in an environment which is both superficially familiar and richly exotic. This book explores concepts about 'nature' specific to thoroughbred racehorse breeding, and pursues the idea that in making statements about animals, we reveal something of ourselves. It explains the action that takes place on racecourses, in training yards, on studs and at bloodstock auctions. It analyses the consumption of racing through betting on the racecourse and in betting shops, and it proffers an insightful description of a unique class system: that of the humans and animals involved in the production of British flat racing.

William Musgrave Calder III (ed.), Further letters of Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff, prepared for publication by Stephen Trzaskoma. Hildesheim: Weidmannsche Verlagsbuchhandlung, 1994. Pp. xii + 261. DM68. ISBN 3-615-00099-4.
Reviewed by Bernhard Kytzler, University of Natal (Durban).
In his Epilogue to "Usener und Wilamowitz. Ein Briefwechsel, 1870-1905" (B. G. Teubner, Stuttgart und Leipzig reprint 1994, 1.ed.1934), p. 70 Calder III writes: "Editions of sources last. Biographies must be rewritten every generation." Faithful to this Credo, he has investigated the traces of Wilamowitz's correspondence all over Europe. Thanks to his tireless efforts, the figure of this great German scholar (1848-1931) has won a precise profile. Calder constantly comments in detail on the texts he has discovered; over the years he has accumulated a wealth of letters documenting every phase of his hero's life and many fascinating details concerning his works as well as his personal decisions, his predilections and prejudices.
Calder's editiones principes are scattered widely in various journals; fortunately he makes them easily available to the scholarly world in books which collect a good number of them. After his former publications (Selected Correspondence, Antiqua 23 and 27, Napoli 1983 and 1984) his new book brings us twenty such publications which came out during the last decade. To be precise, one of them is a new edition (Nr. 7) "Wilamowitz' Damnatio of Bacchylides: Wissenschaftlergeschichte als Wissenschaftsgeschichte" (pp. 75-79). The short presentation introduces the reader to two documents of the Special Collection at the University of Goettingen Library: a letter of Wilamowitz of 19 XII 1897 to Kaibel and a postcard of 27 XII 1897 from Hermann Diels (1848-1922) to Theodor Gomperz (1832-1912). Both texts discuss the disappointment of their authors regarding the newly discovered poetry of Bacchylides; both texts show how a parallel drawn with Pindar's poetry conditions the judgement on the new dithyrambs to the negative. That such a "schnelles Urteil" (Herwig Maehler, "Die Lieder des Bakchylides, Erster Teil", Mnemosyne Suppl. 62, Leiden 1982, p. X) overshadows almost a century, is a warning that cannot be taken seriously enough.
Among the other nineteen pieces assembled here, the reader encounters all the great names of Altertumswissenschaft. Wilamowitz writes to them or about them, frankly and by no means holding back his sentiments. The parade is impressive: Friedrich Gottlieb Welcker, Friedrich Leo, Eduard Meyer, Wilhelm Dilthey, Georg Misch, Theodor Mommsen, Martin P. Nilsson, Max Pohlenz, Eduard Schwartz, Michail I. Rostovzev, Hermann Sauppe et al. This panorama is indeed wide and stimulating. Whoever is interested in Geistes-, Kultur-, Mentalitätsgeschichte, will be richly rewarded when reading this book.
In his preface Calder states that "the texts here replace the earlier editions" and that they "are not merely reproduced but provided with improved editions". However, the human conditions allows for no perfection. Here and there there are minor misprints: p. 76 "Similar cases exist due other great scholars." makes no sense; p. 113 "Wilamowitz is far more an historian that what American classicists call 'a literary critic.'" should surely read "than" instead of "that". I wonder if p 66 "wo man darin ganz war" should not read "wo man darin gross war". p. 26 "liebenswürdige" must read "liebenswürdigen", and ibid. "durch rein geistige Sphäre" probably is "durch die rein geistige Sphäre". Maybe more misleading is p. 23 where in Nr. 8 the Dahlem Address of the correspondent Friedlaender is attributed to Wilamowitz himself.
Instead of collecting such marginal misprints attention might be drawn to a lack of balance in the commentary: many of these letters abound with quotations from von Goethe's poetry; some of these are pointed out to the reader (cf. e.g. p. 16 ann. 43; p. 102; 126), some not: p. 69 "Erdenrest, zu tragen peinlich" stems verbatim from Faust II, Finale, chorus of the vollendeteren Engel: Uns bleibt ein Erdenrest / Zu tragen peinlich; p. 114 "Zwei Seelen rangen in seiner Brust unaufhörlich miteinander" is based on Faust I, 'Vor dem Tore': "Zwei Seelen wohnen, ach, in meiner Brust"; p. 12 "streift er in der Umgebung umher, durch Wald und Feld" is modelled after the beginning of von Goethe's poem Der Musensohn: "Durch Feld und Wald zu schweifen". I wish, a Goethe expert would read the epistles, investigate the quotations and allusions and interpret them for us.
In conclusion, the Eva Sachs case must be remembered (nr. 18, p. 207-221); the fatal attraction of the brilliant female student, an Icarus too near to the sun, the "Wickinger" Wilamowitz. This, I think, is the most moving piece of the collection. Surely one could feel otherwise and rate other items to be more important: the "Creed against Creed" correspondence with Eduard Meyer, the "Instinct against Proof" controversy with Nilsson for instance. But we have here both Wissenschaftsgeschichte and Wissenschaftlergeschichte. To end with a utopian dream: could we perhaps, as a supplement to the Index Locorum Antiquorum and the Index Personarum, be given an Index Rerum Memorabilium, from angst and arrogance to Zweifel, from Abhängigkeitsverhaeltnis to Zusammenarbeit, from Arbeitsethos to Zerrissenheit? May the day come!
