Despite the recently fashionable status of the Bethnal Green area in east London, this has to date failed to lead to a revival of interest in the 1970s band who named themselves after the hood. Bethnal were formed in Bethnal Green in 1972, and sounded like a cut-price Who minus the vocal skill of Roger Daltrey and the songwriting talent of Pete Townshend. I saw Bethnal at The Marquee in Wardour Street on Thursday 24 August 1978 and had a good night out. Bethnal had plenty of energy but beyond their deployment of a violin, there was nothing very memorable about them. They simply weren't as good as the other bands I saw at The Marquee that month: The Vibrators on Monday 14 August 1978 and Ultravox! (when John Foxx was still the vocalist) on Tuesday 22 August 1978. I caught plenty of other bands that August too, at venues all around London… Bethnal were simply another night out on the town.
At some point after that Marquee gig, I pulled Bethnal's first album Dangerous Times out of a bargain bin. It's bog standard seventies Brit rock. The opener Out In The Street (not the tune of the same name from the first Who album) sounds like a second-rate Pete Townshend song covered by a boogie band, but it's still enjoyable. The best tracks are covers of We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place and Barba O'Reilly, but while acceptable they're not as good as the originals… And other tracks like Who We Gonna Blame are seriously let down by the vocals. Bethnal's second and final album Crash Landing was not at all to my taste, since it veers much more in the direction of stadium rock and prog, so even when I came across bargain bin copies of this swansong recording, I left them lying where I found them.
One reason for mentioning Bethnal is because I've been enjoying John Eden's series of blogs at Uncarved about uncool gigs he attended as a teenager. The ninth and most recent in the series is about him going to see The Mission in 1987. Eden appears to have ticket stubs and other memorabilia to jog his memory, whereas I'm relying on internet research to date the gigs I went to 30 and more years ago. I'm a bit older than Eden and I seem to have been more hardcore about my gig going from an earlier age. I liked a lot of seventies new wave and punk acts and among my early live experiences can list The Stranglers, The Damned and The Clash. I hate to admit it but the first band I ever saw was The Jam, and that was sometime before they had a record contract. For me, more interesting than these 'name' acts are those who never made it. One of the best bands in this latter category is Burlesque, a jazz rock combo with new wave trimmings, who like Bethnal managed to release a brace of albums that have yet to be reissued on CD.
According to the Billy Jenkins Webzine Burlesque were: "Selected as the 'Band Most Likely To Succeed' in both the tabloid Sun and Melody Maker at the end of '76, it took a flying visit from America by music business legend Clive Davis to sign the band to Arista Records." I don't like the construction of that sentence, but I presume an article hosted on a former Burlesque band member's website will be factually accurate. All I can say is he and his band-mates in Burlesque cracked me up with songs like Steel Appeal (about being sexually turned on by people in wheelchairs). Better yet, Burlesque saxophonist Ian Trimmer wore a tatty army jacket with 'Bird Lives' sprayed punk-style across the back; even at the age of 15 I knew that 'Bird' was jazz legend Charlie Parker. Making things even more surreal, the one time I saw Burlesque Paul Weller of The Jam was in the sparse audience. That said, Weller was obviously present to check out support act The Pleasers, who were Merseybeat revivalists replete with collarless Beatles' jackets. The Pleasers even had their own one band musical movement – Thamesbeat!
I caught Burlesque and The Pleasers at some college (can't recall which one) at some point in 1977, and it is curious to recall some of the acts I saw in the late-seventies that no one I know talks about any more. For instance, I subjected myself to Nina Hagen at The Lyceum, but I'm not sure if this was in 1978 or a bit later. I guess people still rave about Hagen in Germany, but she hasn't been of much interest to UK based hipsters for the past 30 years. She made her initial international impact with a German language cover of the new wavish Tubes' song White Punks On Dope, done with re-written lyrics as TV-Glotzer. In the early/mid-eighties Hagen made tunes like New York with disco legend Giorgio Moroder acting as producer, and for me that collaboration is the most notable thing about her.
I don't like Hagen's voice, so I've no idea why I went to see her circa 1978 – I can only assume there was some other act on the bill that I wanted to catch. I can't remember where I saw Hagen's one-time boyfriend, the Dutch rocker Herman Brood, but it may have been on a multi-act bill with his consort of that era. Brood is Holland's most famous rock 'n' roll junkie, but I haven't heard mention of him in London for years, despite his 2001 jump from the roof of the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel leading to saturation media coverage of his suicide and subsequent funeral in The Netherlands.
Back in the late-seventies I used to see a lot of bands and my tastes were very varied. I would catch Sham 69 one night and Wire the next; groove to The Vapors on Saturday then freak-out with Gloria Mundi or The Virgin Prunes on Sunday… I even saw Motorhead, but I much preferred The Pirates! Having started out as Johnny Kidd's backing band, The Pirates had been around since the late-fifties. On record they weren't bad, although I didn't really bother with their vinyl, I just liked them live… and in 1978 you'd have been just as likely to find me at a Pirates or Wilko Johnson gig as at a punky-reggae party. I was also going to see British reggae bands like Steel Pulse, Aswad, Misty In Roots and Matumbi. Since I much preferred small clubs to concert halls, I didn't bother with visiting Jamaican acts although I liked their sounds. The Lyceum Ballroom in The Strand was the biggest place I went to with any regularity. I only ever went to The Hammersmith Odeon once, to see Lou Reed in 1979, and I considered the experience shitty.
Out of the stew of music I caught live 30 and more years ago, it is curious to see what's disappeared. Amazingly, bands like The Pleasers made it onto CD in the late-nineties, whereas as far as I know the output of Burlesque and Bethnal has never been reissued on that format…
And while you're at it don't forget to check – www.stewarthomesociety.org – you know it makes (no) sense!

Between 1898 and 1942 Herbert Golledge recorded the events which occurred around the villages of Shoscombe and Single Hill in the parish of Wellow, Somerset, England. The following is a transcript of the Notebook he used provided by Ella Drew before her death. Ella was for many years the landlady of the Apple-Tree Inn at Shoscombe. Whilst the transcription is in page number order it would appear that this is not the order they were entered. It would seem that he started from the back towards the front, at some point switched to the front and then continued in both directions.

The reaction to the school shootings in Newtown, Conn., last week was immediate and voluminous. Of the more than 600 letters sent to email@example.com on the topic, about 120 of them mentioned mental illness as a cause for the violence. A handful of writers warned against jumping to conclusions and stigmatizing those whostruggle with mental disabilities; one writer even turned questions about psychology into ones for gun advocates. Here is a selection of those letters.
In a letter published Tuesday, Michelle Uzeta, legal director of the Disability Rights Legal Center in Los Angeles, wrote:
"The tendency in our society is to label what happened, pack it in a box and tuck it away somewhere. It's our collective defense mechanism. More often than not, the conversations quickly and unfairly turn to disability. These conversations usually lack depth and understanding, and they do nothing more than promote inaccurate and unfair stereotypes.
FULL COVERAGE: Shooting at Connecticut school
"Some reports suggested that the Connecticut shooter had a form of autism. There is no more of a correlation between autism and violence than there is between playing the piano and violence."
Ron Charach, a psychiatrist and author from Toronto, wrote:
"If the back-to-back horrors of Newtown, Conn., and Portland, Ore., are to serve as a tipping point on gun proliferation in America, people must stop asking about the specific motives of the shooters. They should ask more about the motives, both conscious and unconscious, of those who want to see so many military-style weapons being made available to civilians.
"Filmmaker Michael Moore explored attempts by the Bush administration to use post-9/11 fear to justify intrusions into people's lives, including the Patriot Act. However, one suspects there are deeper meanings behind enshrining the gun-show loopholes and of oversimplifying the 2nd Amendment, so that the first clause about a 'well-regulated militia' is removed from its sacred wording.
"Cognitive psychologists agree that much of our behavior stems from unconscious beliefs and emotions. It's time for us to ask why the leaders of the Republicans really want to see more heavily armed people go unmonitored, and why they expect society to absorb the traumas that go along with the grotesque violation of public space."
Frequent letter writer Ralph Mitchell of Monterey Park, a retired social worker, wrote:
"Why do we keep blaming mental illness for every mass tragedy that comes along? We use this as a catch-all for everything that seems to happen while shielding society from any blame. Those with the most common mental illnesses are not more likely to be violent than others.
"We are unable to see what a culture of gun ownership, violent movies and video games and military glorification does to us when this focus on violence interacts with the frustrations of a bewildering and uncaring society. I was a director of mental health clinics for Los Angeles County, and I know that those with mental illnesses react no more violently to life's circumstances than anyone else."

Should have kept my mouth shut.

Hi all.
Well, anyone who has read some of the 'broken USB' port threads may have noticed that I had regularly voiced my concern at these reported failures, and that as a result of the comments made, I was particularly extra delicate with my device (even though my HD500 essentially never moves).
Well, my negativity towards this 'potential issue' has come back to bite me .... perhaps it was karma.
Yesterday my POD failed to connect to 'Edit'. I have had this before, and as usuall, I power cycled the pod... but no luck. I did this again a few times, only to eventually notice my USB cable was not connected!!!! Well, needless to say my worst fears were confirmed when I saw the little black block still in the end of the USB cable. Bugger!!!.
Now obviously this didnt just 'fall off'. I was in fact in the vicinity changing a drive on my PC, and I cannot report any of my feelings as to what may or may not have happened as fact of course, as I just dont have the evidence, so I can only provide my opinion, and if anyone wants to believe anything more sinister happened, you are more than welcome, as ultimately it will not change anything. But I know that I did not lean on any of the cabling, and at most must have knocked the cable whilst in the socket. That said, I believe I would have noticed had I jogged anything with any force.
It is my own fault that as a purchaser of an overseas unit, I am essentially warrantyless (a lesson to be learned??? Maybe). Certainly though, for those of you currently fortunate enough not to have suffered this problem, I would almost (almost mind.... as obviously I do not condone wilfull damage) suggest that you somehow 'experience a failure' before your warranty expires, as in my opinion this is a very very real weakness of the device.
Fortunately I have thus far been able to delecately balance the block back in place and re-attatch the USB cable. Of course this is barely stable (a stiff breeze will probably see the cable fall out), but as it is working at the moment it gives me hope that I may be able to reattatch the block more firmly when I have the time and patience.
In conclusion though, whilst I re-emphasise that this 'part' obviously doesnt just 'fall off', please dont dismiss this as an issue confined to those that abuse their equipment. Please feel free to look back at previous comments I have made BEFORE this happened to me, as I was all too aware of the possibility and took it more seriously than perhaps most did, and still I was not spared.
That sucks man.
i hope you're going to contact line6. they might help.

Well...., I guess they might. But in fairness I knew when I purchased an out of area POD that I was taking a considered risk, and on balance, I have had pretty good luck in the past, so I feel I just have to take the rough with the smooth.
It does sting a little more though, when I feel it is a product fault rather than a random failure (though of course this is my opinion).
Dear CairnsFella
I have sympathy for you, and I read willingly your posts ..
I'm sorry it happened to you what has already happened to several other people ..
I do not express negative comments about it , you know, I would never want that then the karma etc. etc. .. ah ah..
but if it can console you, I can tell you this: a moment ago I was preparing some patches working directly on the POD and while I was just playing my guitar the audio suddenly disappeared..
to get everything working as before I had to re-press the patch footswitch ..
this thing had already happened to me I think about two or three months ago (probably after the last firmware release), and after the usual boring resets procedures did not happen anymore, I was hoping that would not happen again, but ...
I begin to have serious doubts about the quality of the materials used for the POD and especially about the reliability of this device which for my work is important..

I am sorry to hear that gremlins are getting to your POD too. Intermittent problems in particular can be extremely frustrating (with an out and out failure at least you know where you stand).
Im curious to know if your POD was connected to the PC at the time of the failure. I only ask because I have had a few spontaeous resets and audio drop outs over the last few months. Maybe a half dozen or so over the period of ownership, and mine is always plugged into the PC (obviously not counting the broken USB cable period). However, given that so many people use the unit live, I'd have thought there would be more outrage expressed if such glitches occurred during a set, and I cannot say I recall any such comment.
Anyway, lets hope your problems are now in the past.

my HD500 was not connected to the PC when my audio drop out problem occurred ..
in truth I connect it to the PC only when I do some recordings or for updates ..
in the past I had a POD XTL very often connected to the PC, it worked very well for some time and at one point while it was connected some internal electronic component has broken with the result that the XTL was not no longer seen by my PC and all model packs that I bought and installed were gone ..
therefore, perhaps wrongly, from then I think that interfacing the POD via USB might cause problems ..
and as a result I connect it to the PC only when strictly necessary, and when I do it I also disconnect all other devices connected,.. fortunately editing sounds is just as easy even directly on the device ..
If I were you I'd consider taking the unit in then if you have any more dropouts such as those you have experienced so far. Sounds very odd to me.
Boy that stinks...
just some thoughts of my own...
I hope you consider getting the connector replaced.
The thing that worries me about a broken USB connector is the 5VDC that a computer puts out on the power pins in USB...current potential can be up to 500ma on some of those (enough to charge a phone)...just something I know about USB...The thing is, it works...So replacing the connector is simple at this point...If the UART gets fried, life will be less simple...
Apreciatted, and valid advice indeed.
Due to my lack of warranty I feel the most likely action is for me to replace the socket myself. (Im not professing to be an expert but I do have some experience with similar electronics having assembled a few 'kit based' projects.) Though this will depend upon the location and exact nature of the internal element of the socket. Again, I realise this is not a reccomended action.
The current 'balancing act' is only temporary, and although I felt confident the pins would not be shorted, your post has rather reminded me that although I always boot up 'Edit' when I use my POD, for the last couple of weeks I have focussing on actual practice rather than tone hunting. As such I'll probably whip the cable back out until I get a chance to look at it more closely.
most welcome...I had to chime in on that...just the reality of the situation, nothing more or less...
I have repaired a lot of my gear myself over the years...Situation is really the determining factor in that one. Sure, there are a bunch of folks that will fume and say you should take it to a Service Center...But my opinion is...This seems to be just a simple PCB USB jack replacement and being out of warranty I just cannot see paying even a standard bench fee to replace a part that is only a buck or two...perhaps 9 or 10 for an exceptionally robust one...best of luck and please keep us informed...
I had the same thing happen on my HD500. I took it to a Line 6 service centre and had it repaired but it was quite a bit more expensive than I had anticipated. I was told that the fix involved more than just replacing the USB port/jack because an internal chip had also been fried and needed replacement.
So, since yours is out of warranty (as was mine) I think it would be a good idea to try replacing the port/jack yourself and see if that fixes things. But if not, things may get more complicated and expensive.
Good luck. It's a definite PITA.
That sucks and blows. I'm really dissapointed for you that they actually made you pay for this problem. I realise that I have purchsed mine in such a way that I shouldnt (and indeed do not) expect cover for this issue, but I truly remain convinced this is a genuine fault... it just happens to damned often. As such, I feel strongly that situations such as yours should be covered. I know that we are all - in the main - happy with our HD's but this is just wrong, and will certainly make me think again when considering any future Line 6 purchases. (in fact I am already crossing a variax off my wish list..... though that wasnt too much or a wrench as I neaither needed one, nor am really good enough to justify one.. I just wanted one).
In light of spaceatl and your comments I have just re-checked my connection is working (with the delecately balanced cable in situ).. powered down, waited an hour to be 100% sure of no remaining capacitance in the system, and taken the cable out until I can freplace the socket.
I hope I make a better job of it (or at least get a better socket) than line 6 did.
So I dug around on the forum a bit...There are a couple of folks that have done this...Anyhoo, it looks like this might be a compatable replacement port.
Thread: http://line6.com/support/message/370806
Seems like at least one guy used that part...
I am not sure if this would work as I am an HD400/HD Desktop user, but I wonder if it would be possible to connect to Edit via midi...Other Line 6 devices like the XT Live could do this...Anyway, perhaps midi would give at least a safe Edit alternative in the meantime...no audio that way, but maybe some control...These things are so different than the XT that it would not surprise me if they don't work like that anymore...just a thought...
Appreciatte that (though I had seen that thread, and a few others on the topic). Sadly it looks like the whole board will have to come out (not a suprise I guess, but I had hoped for some sort of daughter board for the I/O.)
When I get time (though it wont be for a few days alas) I intend to dig around some of my redundant equipment and see if I have any ISB B ports with the same specs laying around. Though I guess I'd only really want to use a 2nd hand one if I can extract it cleanly as not worth fudging it for the price of a new port.
I havent tried the midi approach. Its a good thought, but given that the Edit software seems to require an actual identification of the HD I am sadly pessimistic. Worth a shot though (Indeed I hope I am wrong, as I can actually live without the audio if necessay, as I have a few other choices for that.)
it might be worth calling Line6 anyway... perhaps they can get you the correct part, and it's not impossible that they'd consider sending it for free....
looks like the ones on that link were 50cents, so you're not exactly asking for the world... personally i would ask just for a guaranteed fit kind of thing.
Well...... yeah. I mean I guess I cant lose by asking... and I certainly dont want to appear ungrateful for any advice intended to help my situation. But I just cant see them wanting to facilitiate me working on my own hardware.. warranty or no warranty. I mean if they provide part, then somehow I managed to electrocute myself on the HD afterwards, it wouldnt look so good that they assisted / supported my tinkering with the unit.
But as I said, nothing to lose, so I'll drop them a line later.
IF, and I stress IF..all else fails.. should be a pretty simple fix...get a USB extension cable (one that has the square femal connector0..... cut the cord, use a meter to determine the wire color/pin combinations and open up the pod..solder the cable wires directly to the board..even if it is surface mounted it should be easy enough to trace down solder points (visually or usiing the meter)...may even want to drill a hole to feed the cable inside to the board... end result would be a working usb port with a flexible cabled connector
Sorry this this happened to you, I feel your pain.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

Rendered Video Problem
Like (1)
Hi I'm new to uploading videos to Elite but I have a problem, I have recently rendered a video yesterday, but It still hasn't shown up. I followed all the requirements at the "How do I upload a video?" Video at Elite. I linked my YouTube account already and at MW3 when I was uploading my video after it was done it said that the Uploading was complete and it said I could go to : theater.callofduty.com, I have gone there but it takes me to the Elite page and there were no videos. Please help me. Thank you in Advance.
Just to clarify, here's the steps for uploading a video: https://support.activision.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/Transferring-Videos-From-the-M W3-Vault
Have you checked your Youtube account to see if the videos have ben uploaded there? Sometimes videos show up on Youtube and then ELITE a bit later.
Also make sure you clear out your browser cache and cookies before checking ELITE.
Thank you for your concern. I have checked YouTube already for two days and it hasn't shown up, I also tried Clearing my Cache and Cookies before checking Elite but still didn't work. I have also heard that some players see they're videos in less than an hour, please solve this problem and Thank you for your concern again.
No problem, we're here to help!
Is this problem consistent across browsers? Have you tried Firefox, Chrome, and so on?
Another thing that might be worth trying would be to un-link your Youtube account, and then re-link it.
Hi again. I tried your suggestions but neither of them worked. :/ I have tried all my browsers. (Specifically : Safari, Firefox, RockMelt and Chrome) I also tried un-linking then re-linking my YouTube Account before and after you said it just to check, but still nothing happened. I hope tomorrow my problem will be resolved. Thank you.
i have the exact same problem and still no reply!!!
Sorry to hear that you are still unable to upload video clips of Modern Warfare 3. Check the following YouTube channels to see if any of them uploaded to the default ones.
I'm not sure what console you are on but here are the 2 channels:
Xbox 360: http://www.youtube.com/user/360codmw3?feature=results_main
PlayStatoin 3: http://www.youtube.com/user/ps3codmw3?feature=results_main
Typically these 2 channels are where the videos uplooad when no YouTube account is linked. This way we can see if anything was actually sent.^RT
Nope I searched it for about 10 minutes and nothing with my Username was there. I don't know if the 2 consoles have different problems but just to be sure my console is PS3, maybe that'll help in figuring what the problem is about. I hope you still find out what the problem is about.
you are not the only one. i tried to upoad aswell and it still wont work. ive tried it mutiple times and wont work. also done all the advice.
It's been almost a month and this problem hasn't been resolved.
@MagguQ, please create another clip using the console app and see if it will show up in ELITE. Please let us know how it goes
@callummarkwright, What system are you playing on? How do you acess ELITE? Through the web site or console app?
How do you create another clip on the console app?
Hey if you're videos are still not showing up on YouTube when you render them, then use this workaround:

For over 30 years, the rich have gotten richer, the poor have gotten poorer, and the middle class is slowly but surely being squeezed out of existence. Instead of more of the same corporate welfare/"trickle-down" economics that have been an abysmal failure for the middle class, why not try a trickle-up approach to rebuilding our economy by targeting relief at those most likely to actually help grow the economy?

Congratulations are in order for Bethpage Baseball Assoc. Little Leaguers Eric Anderson, Craig Cooper, Patrick McDonnell, Glenn Palilla, and Art Tsingtham who were selected from over 160 kids to represent the 10-12 year old Diamond Pros Long Island All- Star Team that \will travel to Beijing, China this August for the annual Beijing Baseball Tournament. The boys will be leaving for a three day sleep-away camp at Concordia College, Bronxville, New York on August 4th. They will then leave for Beijing on the 8th, play tournaments with other nations and sight-see until August 17th. People to People Sports, a tax exempt non-profit organization that was created in 1956 by President Eisenhower for the purpose of promoting international friendship and goodwill through sports, contacted Diamond Pros Baseball Camps to have teams represented in the 10-12 year old division and 13-15 year old division. Lou Santos, President of Diamond Pros, contacted all his camp members for tryouts held in Rockville Centre, Upstate N.Y., and at Concordia College in Bronxville. Each of the boys was put through a major league try-out and evaluated by a major league scout. The boys were then selected because of their high scoring marks in each of the following categories: 60 yard dash, arm strength, running bases, hitting, and pitching. Each boy was treated like a professional and really enjoyed having his velocity checked by the radar gun. Christian Byrnes, a Diamond Pros instructor and a Bethpage Baseball coach in the summer, will becoachingtheL.I.10-12yearold team. Christian was a highly successful athlete at Bethpage High School where he was an All County shortstop and MVP of the County All Star game. He accepted a baseball scholarship to Concordia College where he had a career average of .343. Concordia was a Division II powerhouse winning 3 or 4 Knickerbocker titles in his years of attendance. He will be working closely with each of our five Bethpage representatives. Coach Byrnes had this to say, "Each boy will learn a great deal over the next several months. The competition will be extremely difficult as the Beijing team is selected from all over China.

h t k i hy ynr Maidatiry Acliiity F n i s «strilitii ly thi l . U . Volume 47 Number 15 May 13,1977 Rambler Confiscated; Fear Censorship On March 30th Marvin Fisher, A student Activities employee, drove to Tobay Printers and confiscated the March 31st edition of the RAMBLER. This was done at the request of Mike Mitura (Director of Student Activities) and Marc Sanders (S.G.A. President). The reason behind this action was that Mitura had been, informed that an editorial had been placed in the~RAMBLER which wasn't typed. He felt that if an article doesn't go through t h e usual channels it is questionable. On the morning of March 31st Debby Beitch (RAMBLER Managing Editor) received a phone call f r om Tobay printers asking her if she had the papers. She was then told that a note was given to someone on the night crev stating that the papers were to be turned over to Fisher to insure payment. After receiving the call Debby Beitch and Cindy Rosenthal (RAMBLER Editor) ques-tioned Mitura on the matter. He stated that a meeting was going to be held at 10 a.m. to determine the fate of the issue. No member of the RAMBLER was invited to attend this m e e t i n g . The E d i t o rs demanded release of the papers S.G.A. Calls For Editor's Resignation On Wednesday, April 20th at a regular Wednesday night m e e t i n g of the S t u d e nt G o v e r n m e n t A s s o c i a t i o n a discussion was held to f o rm a committee to call for the resignation of RAMBLERS M a n a g i n g Editor, Debby Beitch. At that meeting an executive session was held. That means t h e only people who are allowed to stay at this meeting are the Senators, Executive Board, secretary and Advisor. The gallery consisting of six Rambler members were asked to leave. Two hours later the gallery was readmitted and nothing was said about what went on during those two hours. When Debby Beitch, R A M B L E R S M a n a g i ng E d i t o r q u e s t i o n s M a rc Sanders, S.G.A. President, as to what went on she was told that she would be informed of the results of the discussions in a letter before 12 p.m. Friday. Friday, Beitch received the said letter. The letter called for her resignation as Managing Editor. The reasons for this included: not acting as a liason between editors, leaving out ads and presenting false and misleading information. It also called for her to appeal the decision by 12 p.m. Monday if she wished to d o so. On Monday morning Sanders received Beitch's appeal. Her appeal stated "the reasons given for wanting me to resign are false and unsusbstantial, which leads me to believe that you know little or nothing about the RAMBLER, its workings or its present staff." Beitch also feels she has been singled out of an Executive Board of 4 people, because of personal reasons. F o l l o w i n g t h a t l e t t er came a second letter supporting Beitch, this time f r om Robert Lawler, RAMBLER Editor. Lawler stated "1 believe your eight reasons were either not applicable, untrue, or focused on one editor when they should have been directed to all those w h o s e r e s p o n s i b i l i t y the n e w s p a p e r is. I w o u l d, therefore, submit that, should you care to request resigna-tions, you must request the r e s i g n a t i o n s of all f o ur executive board members." Technically, S.G.A. does not have the power to put any RAMBLER Editor out of office. The only group who could d o this is the RAMBLER staff itself. When asked of one of the senators what actions could be taken against Beitch he stated the only thing that could be done would be to cut the RAMBLER budget thus relieving Beitch of her position. The drawback here is that in the end the whole campus community would suffer. No actions has been taken thus far, and if plans are being made to d o so the RAMBLER has not been informed of them. but Mitura just said that Fisher had them in his car and Mitura didn't know where he was. At ten o'clock the meeting was held which Rosenthal walked in on. Mitura, Sanders, & Dr. S t e v e n s o n ( A s s i s t a n t Vice President of Student Affairs) were in attendance. Sanders was opposed to the release of the papers but Dr. Stevenson tried to explain that they had no right to hold the papers. When the meeting ended the papers were released. The question which con-cerned the RAMBLER Editors was whether Mitura and Sanders had the" right to confiscate the papers and if they have the right to censor the paper. Beitch stated, "If Mitura was r e a l l y c o n c e r n e d a b o ut protecting us by making sure we did not write anything liableous why was everything done in secrecy. Even if Mitura didn't have any time to notify us that night like he has claimed, why didn't he inform us the following morning. The whole idea of freedom of the press is on the line here." The R A M B L E R E d i t o r s are worried that in the future the S t u d e n t G o v e r n m e n t or Mitura will again exert this power to stop the students of this campus from possibly knowing something they would rather keep a secret. No action was taken against Sanders or Mitura because the paper was released. Had the papers not been released legal action would have been taken. Rambler Stipends Voted Down Three weeks ago, at a regular Wednesday night meeting, the Student Government Associa-tion voted on stipends for the executives of the fully funded units. The only two stipends turned down were those of the R A M B L E R S M a n a g i ng E d i t o r , Debby Beitch & RAMBLERS Editor, Cindy Rosenthal. Stipends are given out every year at the end of each semester, by the S.G.A. They : Proposed Student Lounge in Roosevelt Hall are specified sumt of money given t o the leaders of the fully funded units. The money is a type of compensation for all the time and work put into their jobs, time they could have spent at a regular part time job. The requests are first read at the meeting of the various clubs and have to be approved by the club members. After that the senate votes on whether the students have done their jobs and fulfilled their responsi-bilities. It, seems the main reason Beitch's stipend was turned down by the senate was because they felt they couldn't give out a stipend after asking her to resign just a week before. As for why Rosenthal did not receive her stipend there seems to be no visible reason. No specific questions were asked at the meeting about her work and the Rambler staff approved her stipend unanimously. Beitch & Rosenthal feel that they were not judged on how much work they have put into the paper. They feel that they have done their j o b and that the senators are judging them on personal differences not their work. Right now they are in the p r o c e s s of r e q u e s t i n g a reconsideration and hope to eventually get a revote.

Item | Enter your zip code for product availability and pickup options at your nearest store. | Quantity | Price |
Bamboo is a group of woody perennial evergreen plants of the grass family. Some of its members are giant bamboo, forming by far the largest members of the grass family. Bamboo is the fastest growing woody plant in the world: up to three to four feet a day. This accelerated growth rate allows bamboo to be harvested in three to five years, far more often than the 10 to 20 year harvest cycle of most softwoods. Unlike the environmental damage caused by the deforestation of trees, proper harvesting of bamboo leaves the root system intact, creating little or no topsoil disruption. This renewable, sustainable resource produces 35% more oxygen than its equivalent in tress while reducing carbon dioxide gas that is blamed for global warming. With the tensile strength of steel, it's the strongest growing woody plant in the world.

How Many Senses Are There?
from SheltieTales
on Monday January 7th, 2013 at 06:51 PM
How many times have you heard somebody say Its almost like he has a sixth sense! or something to that effect. And youve undoubtedly seen, or at least heard of, the movie The Sixth Sense.
For many years, Ive been bothered that that phrase. We were probably all taught in primary school that there are five senses: sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. And, although its forgivable that young children just accept what theyre taught, as adults, we should really know better. In fact, I can...

Hacker help: SUNDVIK upgrade?
Materials: Sundvik crib and ?
Description: This is an help request more than an hack. I bought the new Sundvik crib for my baby girl due in June. After I got it, many friends pointed out that it hasn't got the possibility to lower the side to make the bed every morning. Any suggestion on how to modify it so the side slides easily in a lower position or opens in any other way? Thanks hackers!
~ Claudia, Italy
Hey Claudia
This was done on the Sniglar but you may get some ideas for the Sundvik. See more.

ehm...maybe in the US, but here in Italy and other parts of Europe, many cribs have sliding sides! :-)
Delete Yes, but I think we'll see this change in the coming years. Already international companies like Ikea, Jacadi etc. are making cribs without moving sides.
Additionally, recent studies showing that crib bedding (bumpers, comforters, blankets etc.) are suffocation risks, mean that many are opting for nothing more than a fitted sheet and putting baby in a safer "sleep sack", so there is no bed "to make".
Max's mama is right at least in the US - you can't buy (or legally sell, or even give away) a drop-side crib anymore. There have been lots of kids injured or killed because the sides came loose

"Besides, who has time to make their baby's crib every morning?" my baby girl is only due in 2 months..I am still dreaming I will have time for a decent home management!!! :-)
Delete - AnonymousApril 27, 2012 11:35 AM
Been there. :) Remember though that NOT changing the sheet when it is NOT dirty is good home management. :) (And don't be too hard on yourself that time you forget to change it when it was dirty. ;))
I must concur with everyone else. Major crib manufacturers have recalled, or created permanent modifications to all cribs with drop down sides. Once a baby learns to prop up and stand, they will hang on to the side and possibly jostle it out of position.
In the future however,when your child is older, you can probably come up with a way to convert it into a toddler/day bed by removing one side completely, or making a half-railing.- AnonymousApril 26, 2012 3:45 PM
You can put something under the mattress to raise the height until your little one is a little bigger, perhaps another crib mattress.

the crib already has 2 positions for the matress, so actually for the first months it will be a little up! thanks!
I will second the many other commenters, but this is a safety issue. http://babyproducts.about.com/od/sleepbedding/a/drop_side_cribs_safety.htm
There are no manufacturers in the US that will produce these cribs any more. In fact, they are against state safety codes.Replies- AnonymousApril 26, 2012 6:24 PM
Yes, it is against federal law in the U.S. (not by state, but the whole country ;)). Also, I think it is illegal in Canada and probably some other developed countries as well.

OMG. ...the US...in the US...hello, she's living in Italy! If you have these stupid law, who cares in Italy!? The US is not the world!
Safety hazard for any moving parts. Also a newborn should just have a fitted sheet and mattress. No bumper, nothing else in the crib. When the weather is cool, swaddling is best. I believe there are two positions for the mattress one for a newborn and then lower for a toddler. You should be fine, my brother has this crib and loves it.
ReplyDeleteI second TracyKM. Babies just kick the covers off, or (God forbid) get tangled up in them. When we lived in warm places, the baby slept in a cotton zip-up pajama. When we lived in cold places, the baby slept in a cotton pajama, covered with a fleece zip-up pajama.
But here's a VERY helpful hint I learned from an experienced mother: always double-sheet the bed with a complete set (waterproof mattress pad and sheet), so when baby pees, poops, or vomits on the bed in the middle of the night, you only have to take off the top layers and you'll have a fresh set already on the bed.
Congratulations on your new member of your family!Replies- AnonymousApril 27, 2012 3:12 AM

- AnonymousApril 26, 2012 5:24 PM
Do *not* ever modify a crib!!! Serious safety issues and you void any and all warranties on the product. Like the others mentioned, drop-side cribs have been recalled due to infant deaths.
Besides, you don't "make a baby's bed". There shouldn't be ANYTHING in the crib except a tight fitted sheet - no blankets, no stuffed animals, no bumpers, no pillows due to suffocation risk. - Safety mc safersonApril 26, 2012 6:05 PM
As someone who works heavily in the juvenile product and durable nursery product industry - I concur with most everyone's point. While many of us grew up OK, the pain of losing a child probably is not worth the X seconds or minutes you're saving when making a crib or changing the sheets.
If those minutes are worth Y amount of dollars though, there do exist several products out there which comply with the recently updated federal regulations. These products often have features which are called "safety gates" - check Baby's Dream Furniture... - AnonymousApril 26, 2012 6:17 PM
Also, the stationary cribs are made so the entire crib is lower to the ground, so you don't need to lower the side. Give it a chance and you might find you like it. When we were crib shopping a few years ago, drop side cribs were still being sold and I was horrified by how flimsy they were and opted for a sturdy stationary crib. I am average height and it worked fine. Congratulations and Best Wishes! :)
ReplyDelete - AnonymousApril 26, 2012 7:24 PM
If it makes you feel any better, you won't be making her crib every morning. There won't be anything in there to make and you'll be way too busy with more important things to change that fitted sheet on the days when it isn't needed. :)
ReplyDelete - AnonymousApril 27, 2012 12:44 AM
ikea cribs are not drop cribs..which is good it is UNSAFE for babies..yeah it may save you a few seconds every time you put the baby in but its NOT worth it...most ikea beds have 2 mattress heights..one for NB to whenever your little one can sit on their own and then the lowest for older...iv'e had ikea cribs for my kids and it was NEVER a problem putting them in or out every night!
dont risk your childs safety for a few seconds of convenience!! also please please please do not put any pillows,stuffed animals or blankets in your babys crib! its unsafe!!! - AnonymousApril 27, 2012 2:01 AM
as a short person i always found it impossible to put a sleeping baby in a cot at lowest base position without waking them. the extra few cm made it so much easier. I do however like co-sleepers best. i think they help prevent the temptation to bring baby or toddler into bed.
dropside cots seem to be available in the uk and i think if used properly and good quality they are as safe as any cot.
however i would only attempt a hack on any cot if you are a skilled carpenter but then you probably wouldn't need to hack a cot. - AnonymousApril 28, 2012 1:59 AM
What do you mean "make the bed"??
Baby's bed shouldn't have anything more than a tightly fitted sheet on the mattress. All warmth should come from swaddles/sleeping bags, not blankets! Avoid a drop side, especially a hacked one by an inexperienced layman, and take proper precautions for your baby instead!!
Put the mattress in the highest position for the beginning, or invest in a bassinette that hooks on to the cot sides. These are suitable for the first four months (more or less depending on how your baby develops).
Drop side cots/cribs are not as safe as non-drop side, no matter how much they cost or how good they seem.
This does frustrate me; just because your government doesn't have as progressive a stance on infant safety as another country, doesn't mean you should be a complacent parent. I wish all parents would thoroughly investigate safe sleeping for their babies. JUST because it is sold, doesn't mean it is safe!!!
Why not consider building a raised platform that sits in front of the cot, so you can stand up higher than the cot?
Wait until baby comes and see what works for your family. The biggest mistake new parents make is taking the advice of well-meaning friends as gospel, and trying to make one family's habits and routines fit their own family.Replies- AnonymousApril 28, 2012 9:03 AM
For the same reason I won't take as gospel any of the comments I had in this forum. I will think about them of course but still decide on my own! And seeing it the other way round "just because American government prohibited drop side cribs it doesn't mean they are ABSOLUTELY unsafe!" Besides I grew up in a dropside crib with normal sheets as many Italians, and I bet also Americans (since when are this cribs not allowed there?), with no harm!

I think the declining rate of SIDS is proof enough that the way we were raised was not as safe, and that new safety measures and guidelines have serious merit. Just because you and I came to no harm, doesn't mean no baby came to harm. At the end of the day I myself just couldn't do something that could potentially harm or kill my child, especially something like a cot in which they sleep unsupervised, and definitely not for no other reason than to make life a bit easier for myself. You can't make sure that your baby isn't in the minority of babies killed by SIDS, but you CAN reduce your baby's risk factors and make their sleeping environment as safe as possible.
I'm not American by the way. if you put a raised platform in front of the cot, you can risk falling headdown IN the cot, and maybe with the baby too....

Basically and summarizing I think we shouldn't be obsessed with all this concerns! Anyway I really think no one in my family has the skills to hack the crib so it will remain safe! :-)

I won't harp on the "its not safe" thing since that dead horse has been kicked enough times....
For changing the crib sheets quickly and easily, I use Quickzip sheets by Clouds and Stars. Kinda pricey as far as baby linens go, but you don't need to remove the whole crib sheet to change it. You just unzip the top of the sheet and replace it.
You can Google Quickzip crib sheets or find them on Amazon.
Congrats on the new baby!! :) - AnonymousMay 20, 2013 7:18 AM
Wow, there are a lot of paranoid people on here. I think its sad that you all let your government decide what is best for you. Use your own brain for once.
I mostly co-sleep, but there is a bumper, quilt, and stuffed animal in my crib. OMG! NO!
I do agree that you should give the crib a chance, and decide as you go, what works best for you. I don't know how high you can raise this mattress on this specific crib, but you could probably drill holes to lift it higher to your liking. Just keep in mind how much rail you want to leave. You really don't need much for the first 4 months anyway. Good luck!
