Hood takes a break from riffing on the SG to belt out some notes at a January 2011 show in Tampa, Florida. Photo: Ian M. Ireland.
I like the warmth of it. I love the way it kind of distorts and breaks up a little bit when you hit it hard. You can smash that snare drum a little and get a sound that you just don't get with digital, because digital's so clean and perfect. Sometimes if you turn up that snare a little to where it smashes against the tape, it becomes part of the sound.
You guys also maintain a pretty hectic touring schedule, meaning you play a lot of backline gear. What kind of amps are you playing on the road these days?
I'm playing a Fender Vibro-King from the Fender Custom Shop. It's a bigger amp with three 10s, and I've been playing that for about a year. I stumbled onto one last summer when we were playing a festival in Europe—that's what they had for me in the backline instead of what I had asked for—but I fell in love with it. I came home and ordered one the day I got back, and that's been my live amp ever since.
What's your pedalboard look like?
I don't have a lot of effects. I've got a Boss DS-1 Distortion, which is probably the one I use the most, and a tap tempo delay, which I usually use one to two songs a night. I use a phase shifter one song a night on Cooley's "Birthday Boy," although I didn't use it on the record. I also have an Electro-Harmonix Holy Stain, and I used it on "The Flying Walindas" on The Big To-Do, although I don't use it live anymore. A lot of times for what I do, it works best to keep things pretty simple.

Patterson Hood uses mostly vintage and analog equipment. He uses D'Addario strings. All cables are Rapco Horizon.
(Main) Baxendale Harwood - 12-fret, ebony fretboard, koa back and sides, spruce top
(2nd) Kay Craftsman - 14-fret ebony fretboard, mahogany back and sides, spruce top This has gone through Scott Baxendale's "Harmony Conversion" process, which consists of resetting and refretting the neck, removing the back and replacing all the braces with Baxendale's bracing pattern, and finishing with a new bridge saddle nut and tuners.
(Mando) Kay Uku/Mandocello - 14-fret ebony fretboard, maple back and sides, spruce top. This is a parlor guitar converted into a mandolin using the Baxendale "Harmony Conversion" process with a little added twist.

Woodland Park Zoo's 92 acres are divided into bioclimatic zones, featuring different natural habitats ranging from humid tropical rain forests and coastal deserts to temperate rain forests like those of the Pacific Northwest.
Discover the amazing animals and experiences that await you when you explore our award-winning exhibits:
African Savanna
Penguin exhibit
Bug World
Tropical Asia
Willawong Station
Family Farm and Animal Contact Area
Raptor Center
Historic Carousel
Tropical Rain Forest
Northern Trail
Day Exhibit
Temperate Forest
African SavannaThe vast grasslands of East Africa support huge varieties of animals, from predators such as lions, to large herbivores including giraffe, hippos, Grant's gazelles, fringe-eared oryx, ostriches, zebras and patas monkeys. Our African Savanna exhibit showcases these remarkable species that exist on these shrinking wild grasslands.
African VillageThe people of rural East Africa co-exist every day with the animals of the savanna. In tiny communities across the grasslands, a number of groups live directly off the land, sometimes in competition with, but mostly in harmony with the wild animals around them. We pay tribute to the people whose lives are intrinsically tied to the habitat and animals around them at African Village, a faithful reproduction of a modern rural village of East Africa, perched on the edge of our award-winning African Savanna exhibit.
back to top
The dense tropical forests of Asia hold some of the world's most endangered species including orangutans, Malayan tapirs and more. Our Tropical Asia zone features the Trail of Vines featuring orangutans, siamangs and tapirs. This unique part of the world has some of the most densely human populated cities as well as the last vestiges of wild habitats—a balancing act that is increasingly putting animals on the brink of extinction. See the amazing animals from Asia and discover how you can help protect them.
Phase one of the Banyan Wilds exhibit complex opened May 2013, featuring Asian small-clawed otters, a tropical aviary and a nature play space for kids. The second and final phase of the exhibit project will transform the zoo's 60-year-old tiger and sloth bear exhibits with an extreme makeover, opening May 2015.
Raptors are some of the fastest animals on the planet, with species such as peregrine falcons reaching dives approaching 140 mph! They are also some of the most talented hunters featuring keen eyesight and brainpower. See a host of different raptor species from hawks to owls and vultures at our Raptor Center. From May 1 through September 30, daily raptor flight demonstrations are given with keepers presenting fascinating details and showcasing the adept skills of raptors as they fly right over head.
Explore the rugged terrain of the Northern Trail. Mimicking the habitat of Alaska's tundra and taiga region, the Northern Trail features the animals that make this area their home including brown bears, Roosevelt elk, river otters, snowy owls, mountain goats, and Steller's sea eagles. Northern Trail includes the Taiga Viewing Shelter, an indoor viewing area where you see river otters swim playfully underwater and bears hunt for trout. Also check out the Tundra Center, with its beautiful 70-foot long curving mural depicting the Alaskan tundra and special video about the native people who share their habitat.
Australasia encompasses the wide swath of Pacific Ocean area that includes Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and the thousands of islands of the South Pacific. The animals that inhabit this area are both familiar and strange to many with pouched mammals including wallabies and wallaroos (both kangaroo species), the raucous kookaburra, and stately emus. Also within this zone is Willawong Station, an Outback post featuring small parrot species of Australia that you can feed right from your hand.
Flock to Willawong Station - the bird feeding experience at Woodland Park Zoo. Be surrounded by small parrot species from Australia in this interactive exhibit. You can even purchase a seedstick and everyone in the family can feed these feathered friends. Learn how you can help wild bird species in your very own backyard. See seasonal hours.
A treasured moment in a child's life is to a ride on a carousel and be transported back to another time. A ride on this special, hand-crafted, 1918-vintage carousel is like no other! Fun for the entire family and proceeds help benefit the zoo's animal care and general operations.
$2.00 per ride. See seasonal hours.
Discover the amazing world of reptiles and amphibians. Learn how varied these animals are, from gila monsters to king cobras, and the incredible adaptations they exhibit to live in a variety of habitats including deserts and humid tropical forests. The Day Exhibit also features the Matschie's tree kangaroo, an ambassador for Woodland Park Zoo's flagship field conservation program, the Tree Kangaroo Conservation Program working to protect wildlife and habitat in Papua New Guinea.
Most people think of snow and ice when they think of penguins, but our penguins are from the hot, arid coastal regions of Peru! Humboldt penguins live along the rocky coasts and we've mimicked this environment in our new exhibit which features incredible underwater viewing. It is also the first sustainable penguin exhibit with geothermal warming and cooling of water and eco-friendly water filtering systems. Watch up-close as the birds frolic just inches away.
Zoomazium is Woodland Park Zoo's nature-themed playspace especially for ages toddler through 8 years. Kids can climb a mountain, scale a giant tree, meet fascinating animals, and enjoy special presentations and performances making Zoomazium a fun and exciting indoor space for exploration and discovery. Zoomazium also features Nature Exchange, where young nature explorers can learn about nature and even exchange their finds for a host of interesting natural artifacts. Zoomazium is an award-winning Gold-certified LEED environmental building. See seasonal hours.
Explore the habitats of the Tropical Rain Forest. Tropical rain forests ring the middle of the planet and host an enormous diversity of plant and animal life. Our Tropical Rain Forest zone mimics the forests of both South America and Africa with outdoor exhibits including red ruffed lemurs, gorillas, colobus monkeys, and jaguars and an indoor Tropical Rain Forest dome including South American birds, ocelots, snakes, poison dart frogs, and many other fascinating animals.
Temperate forests, such as those found here in the Pacific Northwest, are some of the most vast remaining intact habitats on the planet.

"The Eagle has Landed".. I picked the new BS from my local Lowes. It was shipped on a pallet all the way. Not a scratch on it everything great shape. Got it fired up to burn off all is good. Now gotta get some dough going.
IMO, just go down to Whole Foods, spend $3 for a doughball, split it in half and make 2 pies in the same day. There is plenty to other stuff with a new oven, launch, sauce, ingredients (don't forget the bacon), etc.Dave
WF is an hour drive for me. I did whip up some Italian flatbread dough seasoned with EVOO and basil with sesame seeds and cooked a couple of skins for practice..and I never forget bacon
Oven #4 supposed to be here Monday,Cabala's was supposed to repack for me and Blackstone said they'd take care of me direct if there's any breakage, good idea about going to Whole foods, only about 2 miles from here, I'll try that , I think I've seen that Lowe's on Dale Mabry but theres only one place I've been to on that street.......ah never mind, didn't make it here this year when I was up that way anyway.
I can go to Fry's/Kroger and get a Lowes gift card for $400 and get the fuel points too.
I picked up one for a friend at a nearby Lowe's in SoCal and it has the propane carrier.A couple of weird things, the front burner knob is reversed from the past ones. So now, full blast is at 3:00 instead of 6:00. And the propane shelf screws into the legs, so it's not as easy to transport the oven. I like my older model in which the shelves just clip on the legs. And of course, this version has the stickers plastered all over it!

The goal of the projects is to push the number of electric cars and EV infrastructure toward a tipping point.mass transit policies. Nissan and GM currently are concentrating some of their early marketing for electric vehicles in selected states, including California, New Jersey, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas. Given the current state of battery technology, demonstration projects should focus on commuter cars and delivery vehicles in urban areas because these vehicles typically make round trips within the range of a single charge.
Incentives for electric cars may be spread too thinly, without a focus on a smaller number of communities."early adopter" community. The Leaf uses no gasoline whatsoever but has a range of only 70 to 100 miles before it must be recharged. The Volt, with a small back-up gasoline engine, can travel 375 miles before it must be recharged or refueled, and is sometimes classified as a plug-in hybrid. However, the lithium-ion batteries in both of these vehicles are heavy and expensive. While the real cost of batteries is declining, an electric car today still costs $10,000 to $20,000 more than a similar-sized gasoline car.
A technology may die after a successful pilot, before barriers to mass commercialization can be overcome.the high price and a shortage of public recharging stations. But for sales of electric cars to achieve critical mass in any single community, the sales must expand to fleet buyers and mainstream retail purchasers. In the absence of government incentives, these buyers are unlikely to be convinced that the benefits of electric cars justify changing their driving behavior and paying a high sticker price. So instead of expending more public money in all communities, the existing public commitments need to be concentrated in a few.

- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 1/2 pounds short ribs, cut into individual ribs
- 2 tablespoons Creole seasoning
- 1 cup chopped onions
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup chopped carrot
- 1 cup peeled, seeded and chopped fresh or canned tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons chopped garlic
- 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 3 bay leaves
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 quarts beef broth
- 1/4 cup chopped scallion (green part only), for sprinkling
Heat oil in a dutch oven or large, heavy covered pot over high heat. Season ribs with Creole seasoning, patting it in well with your hands. When pot is nearly smoking add ribs without crowding them and sear on all sides until they form a brown crust. Do this in batches, if necessary. When all ribs have browned, add onions, celery and carrot; saute 1 minute to brown lightly. Stir in tomatoes, garlic, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, pepper and enough broth to just cover ribs. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to gently simmering, cover and simmer until very tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
To serve, mound ribs in center of 4 plates, spoon sauce over and garnish with chopped scallion.

I've had lots of positive response to my column Sunday on "Warrior Cops." One said "Super article. How do we reverse this?"
It won't be easy. There are several steps that could be taken at the federal level, like dropping the programs that transfer military hardware to local police forces and repealing the asset forfeiture laws that reward local police by giving them the profits of busted drug dealers. Big changes will require Congress to act, courts to restore rights that have been compromised and changes in the political atmosphere.
But there's another option: Act locally to change local police departments.
John Ellsworth, a former Ashland selectman, brings up the example of Andrew Stigiano,� who was killed in July by an Ashland cop.� Unlike Eurie Stamps, Stigliano was violent and threatening, but that doesn't mean the cop had to shoot him, as Ellsworth explains:
Andrew Stigliano was a disturbed young man with serious emotional, possibly mental, and certainly drug-related issues. He died because of what our group has been calling �SWAT Mentality�; what Holmes has called �Warrior mentality.� … When Andrew was killed during a standoff, a standoff that was triggered by a warrant for what was at the root of things a domestic disturbance, there were many of us in Ashland who felt immediately that had there been different officers on the scene, had there been a different mentality operational within our force, had there been a less �aggressive do� mentality and a greater application of thought, the outcome would have been lot different.In his letter, which will appear in tomorrow's Daily News, Ellsworth reminds us that Ashland is in the process of choosing a new police chief:The single most important question which our town faces at the moment is does Ashland reverse course and go back to police policies of community policing, the �Officer Friendly� of your headline; or, do we continue down the track of intimidation, of force, of self-assured police braggadocio.What Ellsworth doesn't mention is that the town's police chief search has narrowed the field to two finalists.� One is a lieutenant with the NYPD, which has a history of warrior-cop behavior.� The other is Framingham Deputy Chief Craig Davis, who was the officer in charge of the SWAT team the night Eurie Stamps Sr. was killed.

The weekend always brings about a sense of calm, reflection, and a little reprieve from the day to day struggles we face in our businesses. One of the struggles that shouldn't get swept aside during this time off though is the concept of Business Continuity (sometimes knows as Business Disaster Recovery - BDR). It actually should be something we've planned for and acted on long before any time away.
Despite the continued lowering of costs for IT solutions and infrastructure, small businesses can still run into significant challenges in the design and implementation of backup and business disaster recovery (BDR) strategies. Businesses are using more and more storage, and as business volume and connectivity grows, the need to retain transaction data, log data, and archive databases increases. The continued move towards more and more virtual server solutions only increases the size and complexity of the situation. We've been seeing a trend where existing backup and BDR solutions (ie: backup software, tape and disk drives, and imaging software) are being outpaced by storage needs, and the "always on" mentality of business is beginning to make off-site storage of tape media not only impractical in terms of restore response time, but also antiquated and unable to meet the desired service level of businesses.
Fortunately, new technologies are available making business continuity and BDR solutions significantly more cost effective. Over the last few years increased Internet bandwidth at significantly more affordable prices as well as the proliferation of off-site remote backup storage has helped. Other factors such as cloud computing, WAN fail-over, multisite clustering, and other "high availability" and load balancing solutions have become more cost effective that they're starting to make inroads into the SMB market.
The key in all of this though is managing the client's expectations about what business continuity and fail-over really mean and what they really cost. Simply put - what you think you're getting vs. what you're actually getting. This also has to be balanced between what you think you "need" vs. what your actually willing to pay for (both initially as well as ongoing to maintain and support). We've also seen a trend lately when taking on new clients of all sorts of misinformation being pushed out there about the simplicity of BDR solutions. While there are several different "flavors" of Business Continuity, the difficulty lies not only in effectively communicating the differences, but in having clients who are willing to take the time to understand them. The thing is - most clients don't really want to understand the complexities of the differences. And they shouldn't have to. But, they do need to understand the core differences. There's backup, then there's offsite backup, then there's server virtualization, there's onsite server fail-over / redundancy, there's off-site server fail-over / redundancy, there's site replication, there's co-located server redundancy. All having different impacts and all requiring different investments.
So, what are you trying to accomplish? The key thing to keep in mind AND plan for in all BDR solutions is - it's all about the restore. Even just talking about backup goes down the slippery slope of having to understand all the restore considerations... What's being backed up? How's the restore process managed? Who's responsible for it? How is the restore tested? How often is the restore tested? How good are the restore capabilities? What is the true interruption to business operations? What can be restored? How long will a restore take? Who needs to be involved in the restore? All good planning points that should be part of everyone's Business Continuity Plan.
My point is, Business Continuity and Business Disaster Recovery is not simple and it's not easy. Regardless of what anyone may tell/sell you. But, with the right plan, the right guidance, and proper communication it can be highly effective.

Watched the pilot tonight via yahoo two weeks before the official premere. Liked it a lot. Definitely worth a view for anyone who likes geo-political thrillers , or submarine movies ( e.g. Red October, Das Boot). The Shield's Shawn Ryan and Karl Gajdusek created it, and GoldenEye and Casino Royale's Martin Campbell directed the pilot.

Seared Scallops
- 1 to 1 1/4 pounds dry sea scallops, approximately 16
- 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
DirectionsWatch how to make this recipe.
Remove the small side muscle from the scallops, rinse with cold water and thoroughly pat dry.
Add the butter and oil to a 12 to 14-inch saute pan on high heat. Salt and pepper the scallops. Once the fat begins to smoke, gently add the scallops, making sure they are not touching each other. Sear the scallops for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. The scallops should have a 1/4-inch golden crust on each side while still being translucent in the center. Serve immediately.

I have never tried any pu-erh tea before. I recently got suckered into visiting a gimmicky type tea shop where everything is all about packaging and every tea is described by what it does for you (for example, pu-erh lowers cholesterol and improves blood circulation).
I ended up getting some samples, one of which was simply called "pu-erh black tea". So I guess this probably will not be a good tea to try to generalize with, but I found that the tea has a very fishy aroma and taste. Fishy as in fish-like, not suspicious. Is this true for most pu-erhs?

In the late 1980's, an unlikely series of events carried me to Nicaragua, Honduras, and El Salvador to meet high-ranking political figures and rebel leaders.

How customers use and value electricity has been a subject of study and debate for many decades. A better understanding of how customers use electricity could help the industry find ways to improve energy efficiency. In addition, our ability to encourage more efficient consumption through feedback, control technology, and dynamic pricing is better and less costly than it has ever been due to technology advancements.
Despite decades of research into how customers use and value electricity, fundamental questions remain unanswered. This report summarizes the results of an 18-month effort to systematically review the research that has been done to characterize how customers use and value electricity, concentrating on large field trials that have been completed in the past decade or so. The results are summarized by market sector (residential, commercial, and industrial) and by type of behavioral intervention (pricing, feedback and control technology).
Because most of these programs are only offered on a voluntary basis, we further assess what is known about participation (who decides to participate), performance (how customers respond once they are on the program), and persistence (how participation and performance change over time). The state of knowledge is assessed using readiness scoring criteria, which indicate the extent to which knowledge barriers exist that make it difficult to determine the impacts such programs might have, if a given utility were to implement them on a large-scale. Research priorities are also identified to suggest where collaborative research could help resolve major uncertainties.
The detailed results are contained in two reports which synthesize what we know – and what we need to know – about how customers respond to dynamic pricing, feedback and control technology. One of these reports was published in February 2012,[1] and the second will be published later this year. We anticipate updating this research over time as new field trials and rigorous evaluations of ongoing programs are completed.

Western Music professor, Dr. John Wacker, died in a vehicle crash on May 11.
The Western State Colorado University community is incredibly saddened by the tragic loss of Dr. John Wacker. John was a mentor, role model and friend to students, faculty and community members throughout the Gunnison Valley. He instilled a love of music and an ethic of hard work in students and friends alike. Our hearts and thoughts are with his family.
Dr. John Peterson, a Computer Science Professor and Wacker's friend, offered the following tribute:
If you have friends or family who cannot attend, tell them to watch the spring 2014 Commencement Ceremony online here!

Western's Environment & Sustainability and Business Administration programs jointly sponsored the event, reflecting its focus on not only ideas but also practical economic solutions.
"It's nice to celebrate poetry for an entire month," he says, "but events and passion for poetry go on year round."
Honors students took the chance to mingle with each other and benefactors. There are a total of 107 Honors Students this year and they hope the numbers will grow next year.
Depending on the time of year, there could be dozens of openings for Work-Study on campus. Now is the time to start watching for great summer opportunities and the early-bird positions for the fall.
Gary Snyder recently spoke at Western, as part of the Headwaters Conference. Before the reading, John Hausdoerffer, the Director of Western's new Master's in Environmental Management and of Headwaters, invited a group to dinner with Snyder -- where I took this photo -- and we had a great time. The man is still utterly vibrant at almost 85, and not only was engaging at dinner but then gave an inspiring reading and talk for over an hour to more than 550 people -- the vast majority of them under 25 -- in Taylor Auditorium. Poetry is alive and well. Thanks, Gary.

Today's announced crowd of 115,109 sets the all-time attendance record for a football game — college or NFL — and breaks the Michigan Stadium attendance record. The previous Michigan Stadium record was 114,804, established at U-M's previous home game vs. Notre Dame on Sept. 11, 2011. It also marks the 246th consecutive game of more than 100,000 fans at Michigan Stadium. The Wolverines improved to 24-16-1 in all-time series against Notre Dame. Michigan has won the last three of the last four meetings in the series. U-M owns a 14-7 mark all-time against Notre Dame at Michigan Stadium, including wins in each of the last four home meetings. Tonight's victory was the Wolverines' 400th in Michigan Stadium history. Michigan is 400-120-15 at home since the stadium opened in 1927. Gardner's 376 total yards rank as the ninth-greatest single-game effort in Michigan program history. Gibbons established a new Michigan program record with 16 consecutive field goals. He also extended his consecutive PAT streak to 110. He took sole possession of fifth among the Wolverines' career field goal leaders with 33, breaking a tie with Haji-Sheikh (31, 1979-82).

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Steve King really did raise $313,490 on Kickstarter. But what happens now that he's been "Kickstarted"?
"It absolutely democratizes the process of raising money," King told me as he demonstrated his red-hot, newly crowdfunded tablet pen tool, The Hand Stylus . He says people like him have a shot at changing the world.
"But are the markets ready for this?" he asks. "And what actually happens to businesses like mine that succeed there? That I don't know."
King knows how to play the part of crowdfunding superstar, as gave me the guided tour on how he and business partner Christine Gonsalves got their funding.
Relying on a keen sense of retail sales developed as the owner of the Alameda, Calif.-based gift shop Whales & Friends , King obsessed over his stylus idea until he created a tool he liked. He traveled to China for prototyping and spent two weeks making a sales video. On May 3, he posted his pitch on Kickstarter, setting his original goal at $25,000.

Amazingly, when the offer closed six weeks later, north of $300,00 was pledged -- with Kickstarter and Amazon (AMZN) ripping about $30,000 out for their trouble, he says -- in return for preorders of a slick, retractable stylus that turns a tablet computer into a virtual drawing board.
Not surprisingly, King said, "I am an evangelist for Kickstarter."
But, ever the thoughtful entrepreneur, he also saw issues.
"Many businesses and people are not prepared for Kickstarter," he warned. "It's trickier than it looks."
This is supposed to be crowdfunding's year in the business sun. The JOBS Act -- signed into law in April of last year -- has powerful new language meant to bring crowdfunding to the investor mob.
"Crowdfunding for Everyone" is the marketing line from San Diego-based GoFundMe that captures the land-rush vibe.
And crowdfunding has become crowded indeed. There is Ireland-based Fund It , Fayetteville, Ark.-based EquityNet, or San Francisco's hip Indiegogo and many, many more. America's A-List investors are also getting in. Former Treasury secretary Larry Summers made a significant investment in a peer-to-peer lending outfit LendingClub last year. Heck, you can even go on a crowdfunding cruise. Entrepreneur Robert Dobyns is sponsoring just such a floating meet-up that embarks from Galveston, Texas, later this year.
But King feels the sector will be a challenge for many.
"Being in retail gave me a big advantage," King says. "But how well companies handle the responsibility this technology raises, that is an open question."
"White Label" Crowdfunding
Even a brief wander through the crowdsourcing market shows King has reason to be concerned. Already, the vast number of crowdfunding services, names such as Crowdrise, IPO Village or Crowdtilt, have devolved quickly into similar, almost template-like designs and experiences. That implies the use of off-the-shelf software tools that open a world of security and ethical issues.

When it comes to making sure your fashion website is the best it can be, you've probably spent time looking over every detail. Your photos are stunning; your content is interesting, and maybe you even have a few trendy ideas to share in the coming months. But what about the titles to your articles, have you considered them yet? It might sound like a small piece of the puzzle, but in reality, it's one of the biggest. From impacting your SEO to drawing your readers in so that they actually click on your article, the title of a page can have significant effects on your fashion website. In fact, more people read an entire article title before deciding if they'll merely skim the content on the page or really read and engage with it. You can see how really important it is! So here's 7 tips for making sure your titles are enticing and some of the best in the business.
One step that many people skip over when they make their titles is a basic brainstorm and rough draft session. Instead of just firing off any title you can think of, spend some time creating a rough draft and exploring ideas so you can find the best one.
Think About and Engage Your Audience
When you consider the audience you're writing for, it's often easier to craft titles that really hit the mark. By doing so, you're able to incorporate appropriate tone, style, and any special terms that might catch their eye.
Use Vivid Words and Adjectives
Skip the bland language and spice things up a bit with words that paint a picture. The easiest way to do this is by adding adjectives and also adverbs. For example, majestic, kick-ass, crimson, bold, eye-catching or any number of other choices. Especially if you're writing about a particular style, add words that really bring the visual elements to life.
Make it a Top List
When you make your content a list, you're able to make the title reflect this. These sorts of titles are heavily read on the internet. People love top lists because they're quick, easy reads that cut right through all the fluff.
Add a Little Value
That brings us to our next tip: ensuring that your title conveys value. Make sure you tell your audience exactly what they'll be getting from your article and why it's important to them. For example, instead of merely using "5 Ideas for Trendy Fashion" tack on a little extra value with something like, "5 Ideas for Trendy Fashion that will Make You the Talk of the Town."
Keep it Short
Too often we see fashion websites with really long, drawn-out titles. Readers not only are less likely to read these sorts of titles, they're also too cumbersome and awkward in many cases. Clip your title down to the essential words to get the point across and convey interest.
So often, fashion websites create titles that sound like they were written by a robot. Fashion is art, so write titles that match! Letting your language flow naturally when you create titles will really help entice your readers to want to read your content. If it sounds natural, it will be more clear and more interesting.
For your fashion website, imagine it like a piece of clothing itself, a wonderful outfit that really goes the distance. Now think of your article titles as the accessory that really sets the outfit apart, that makes it seem like more than merely a set of clothes to put on. You know how important a great accessory can be, but even more so, consider how that accessory, and your titles, really draw the viewer in. They really are the piece that refines the entire project, taking mundane to the next level.

McCartney buries Eleanor Rigby claim
Wedsnesday, November 11, 2008
http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5iRb ... jK0UBAs5tQ
A pay slip from 1911 listing a scullery maid called E. Rigby.
LONDON (AFP) — Paul McCartney on Wednesday shot down suggestions that his Beatles song "Eleanor Rigby" was inspired by a hospital scullery maid after a woman claimed the star had sent her a pay slip signed with that name.
"Eleanor Rigby is a totally fictious character that I made up," McCartney said in a statement released to AFP by his publicists.
"If someone wants to spend money buying a document to prove a fictitious character exists, that's fine with me," he said, referring to a forthcoming auction of the document.
His spokeswoman added they had not been able to establish whether McCartney sent the pay slip to Annie Mawson, who is auctioning it off to raise up to 500,000 pounds for a music therapy centre.
The pay slip dates from 1911 and originally came from City Hospital in Liverpool, McCartney's home city.
Mawson, chief executive of the Sunbeams Music Trust charity, said the ex- Beatles' office sent her the document after she wrote to him asking for a donation to help children with special needs.
Explaining how she received the document in 1990, Mawson said: "One day in the post came a brown envelope with a Paul McCartney world tour stamp, nine months after I had written the letter.
"I opened it and inside was this beautiful, ancient document. It was spine-shivering really, partly because he responded in such a personal way."
"Eleanor Rigby" -- McCartney's song about a lonely woman who "died in the church and was buried along with her name/Nobody came" -- appeared on the 1966 Beatles album "Revolver" and was the B-side to the single "Yellow Submarine".
McCartney has previously said the name Eleanor was inspired by actress Eleanor Bron, who starred in the Beatles film "Help!" in 1965 and that Rigby came from the name of a wine merchant.
In the 1980s, a grave was discovered at Saint Peter's Church in Woolton, Liverpool, where McCartney and bandmate John Lennon used to sunbathe as teenagers, bearing the name Eleanor Rigby.
There was also a gravestone bearing the name "McKenzie" -- the song also features a character called Father McKenzie -- in the graveyard, which has now become a popular attraction for Beatles fans visiting Liverpool.
The document is due to be auctioned in London on November 27.

Tuesdays With Rita: First Christmas
They must have been lost in the many moves my family went through

Rita-I am struck by the word "tears"--tears, as something torn or tears as crying. Somehow the idea of this torn photo of you and your father brings tears to my eyes--for you for not having him around as you grew up, but happy that you have this photo of him looking at you in this way.ReplyDelete
I love the photo of you and your mom, the look on her face is priceless. A beautiful memory keeper...ReplyDelete
You are so lucky to have these photos! My parents put up our Christmas tree and wrapped presents on Christmas eve when we were already asleep. I remember the absolute dumbstruck awe of my little brother and myself when we wandered into the front room to the multi-colored lit tree presiding over the beautifully wrapped boxes. The other Christmas I remember well is the one where all of us kids had chickenpox. Every one of us - there were six of us then. My poor Mom and Dad. Thanks for this post Rita.

these are indeed lovely full of love picturesReplyDelete
it makes me happy to know you feel the love and take things in this great way about your dad

Facebook kills a grassroots tool
Facebook kills a grassroots tool:
Facebook's new API change blocks new apps from accessing friend lists.
It was inevitable. Every step that Facebook has taken to increase its monetization strategy would necessarily undermine many of the ways that grassroots organizing found Facebook to be useful in the first place (and build facebook into the company that it is today).
I doubt that Facebook would be the brand name it is today (like MySpace isn't) if it hadn't played a major role in elections and mass mobilizations around the world since 2008.
But ePolitics is reporting that
Facebook's API change blocks new apps from accessing friend lists, and existing ones are grandfathered in for just a year. After the 2014 election cycle, vendors will have to find new ways to mine the social web for voter contacts. Smart ones will have already done so.

Does it REALLY work?!?Posted Wednesday, February 17, 2010, at 12:14 AM
I was needing some advice on a recent purchase and was directed to the "Does it work Wednesday" section of the KFVS website. I was glancing through some of the products that they tested and thought some if not most were a waste of MY time at least. Products that I could have pretty much said were not gonna live up to their hype at least, and at worst were just plain snake oil!
I got to thinking, which is a dangerous thing for me to do anyway, what if they were to test something all of us are really interested in knowing if it works but are to embarrassed or timid to ask about. I mean could you just imagine them testing something like, oh I don't know, the little blue pill?!? Or the item I've been seeing in commercials recently that promises the women of the world fireworks and other grandiose metaphors during intimate moments??( Although I am not sure if they could get their test subjects to appear on camera.)
Even things like secretly going to doctors appointments and grading the service rendered!! I thought about this and decided to run some of my own "Does It Work?" testing.
I started out by giving one of the a fore mentioned products to friend and fellow blogger Corey Noles. The following video chronicles those efforts.

Hahaha! Roy, this is a GREAT idea! Tomorrow I'll check this blog on high speed computer, so I can see what Corey's REALLY doing!

Revelation 3:14-19 If you were to read these verses you would find the foundation for this blog and have an understanding of the essence of me. I am a Christian! I am not ashamed or embarrassed to be so, nor will my obvious faults keep me from proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Every "rant" in this blog will have this fact at it's base. This in no way should be taken as me believing that I am right all the time. May I always be ready to accept the lessons that come only from being wrong! However I will be either hot or cold! May the Lord Jesus not find me to be lukewarm.

Three passes? That is just awful. The defense needs a freakin' break! It's been a full season of reasonably good playcalling by Mike McCarthy, but that is just inexcusable.

Whether you want a whole-grain bagel in the morning with some egg whites, or just simply need a slice of toast on the way out the door to work or school, a toaster is a necessary staple in any kitchen. Even some of the simplest of toasters have smart technology in the digital age we live in, allowing for seamless, great toasting every time to make your morning even better. Choose from William-Sonoma's two-slice and four-slice toasters, which are available in a variety of styles to suit your preferences.
If you just plan to toast a small capacity of bread occasionally, a two-slice toaster with smart technology is a great idea. Five different settings allow you to program the toaster exactly how would like your food. For example, settings include Bagel, Toast, Lift & Look, Defrost and A Bit More, so you are able to tell your toaster exactly how to perform. A stainless-steel finish allows the toaster to blend in with your existing kitchen electrics and decor, and this toaster is easy to both clean and maintain. If you plan to toast larger capacities each morning, opt for the four-slice option that includes all of the same features.
Decorate your countertop with your choice of toasters that come in vibrant colors, such as pink and yellow, with a two- or four-slice toaster from Dualit. An included selector lets you only use the number of slots you need to toast, while a mechanical timer allows for just the right amount of toasting time for your tastes. Hand-assembled, this toaster adds a classic feel touch to any kitchen, and a removable crumb tray lets you easily clean and maintain the toaster.
If you prefer a simple two- or four-slice toaster, opt for a classic metal toaster that fits neatly right on your countertop with your other electrics. Extra-wide slots allow you to place both bagels and pastries, and six browning settings allow you to toast to perfection. A special control lets you control each slot separately. If your spouse likes well-done toast and you prefer lightly toasted, this is a perfect fit for breakfast. For a unique breakfast experience, consider a toaster that lets you see the bread as it is toasting. With a strong stainless-steel construction, this toaster is meant to last. In addition to the viewing windows that let you see through, this toaster also has four programmable settings such as Bagel and Reheat to ensure perfect toast every time. Four quartz heating elements in this toaster also provide uniformly browned toast for a treat every morning.

I have to say that fantasy is not my favorite type of story. However, I felt an obligation to read Goblin Secrets, the latest National Book Award winner (youth category) and was surprised at how much I enjoyed this book! Charming goblins, people with gears in their legs, and a really creepy underground railway kept my attention. This fast-moving story by a first-time novelist is worthy of the award!

NYPA Presents Check for over $6,600 to South Bronx Catholic Elementary School for Playground Fence
BRONX—The New York Power Authority (NYPA) Wednesday (June 1) presented a $6,625 check to the St. Luke's School in the Bronx for a new playground fence, with construction to begin as early as next week.
"The only negative part about the timing of this gracious donation is that I'll be leaving next year and won't be able to enjoy this for very long with the children," said a smiling Sister Pat Howell, OP, who accepted the ceremonial check for the elementary school, which is located at 608 East 139th Street.
"This has been a long time coming," said parent Joey Maisonet of the new fence. "I'm so happy to know that our kids will now have a safe and clean place to come and have fun."
The new fence will be three feet higher than the existing one, helping to prevent trespassing during after-school hours. That will support other measures that have been taken to secure the area. The 100-by-100 square-foot playground, which includes a basketball court, is currently surrounded by an aging, beat-up 12-foot fence that has long needed replacing.
Sobeida Cruz, NYPA, director of Public and Governmental Affairs, presented the check.
"The Power Authority is happy to have a role in making the new fence at St. Luke's possible and assisting Sister Pat and her staff in enhancing the security of the school. The new fence also is sure to be an aesthetic improvement over the current one," said Cruz.
The Power Authority provides lower cost power for thousands of public facilities in the Bronx and the other boroughs, including schools, hospitals, municipal buildings, and the subways and commuter trains. It has also undertaken major energy efficiency improvements for those facilities. In the Bronx alone, these measures have cut annual electric bills by more than $11 million a year and reduced annual greenhouse gas emissions by over 112,000 tons.
NYPA is also a leader in clean alternative generating technologies, including fuel cells and solar power. Among its installations are three fuel cells at a wastewater treatment plant at Hunts Point, a fuel cell at the North Central Bronx Hospital, and a roof-mounted solar power project at the Gun Hill Bus Depot.

Expert Q & A Answers About SCI and retrograde ejaculation
I have a spinal chord injury and I'm slow to ejaculate...is there a toy that could help?
I am an incomplete C5-6 quad. I'm 26, male and I've been injured for nine years. I have no problem getting or maintaining an erection (with little or no stimulation), but my ejaculations take too long. When I stimulate the base above the testes, I get quicker results, though…so I'm wondering if there's a toy that stimulates just this area?

I have a mystery oolong that showed up at our office. Probably a gift from the rep for the factory that manufactures some of our equipment. Anyway, I noticed it in the kitchen and had to try it out. There is nothing in english to identify what type of oolong it might be. All it says is "The Selected Tea of Taiwan". I brewed some up and it makes a decent cuppa, though it shows more bitterness than I prefer. It's lightly vegetal with no real outstanding characteristics.
Anyone have any ideas? I think it may be a TGY. The pellets are solid and firmly rolled, taking a few infusions to unfurl fully. It isn't roasted and I would guess 30-40 oxidized. Here are some photos.

Hillsdale assistant Evans inexperienced, but says he's ready to be head men's basketball coach at Northern Michigan
MARQUETTE – Ferris State head basketball coach Bill Sall has been with the Bulldogs for 11 seasons.
Valley City State (N.D) head coach Jeff Kaminsky has been a head coach at the NAIA and NCAA Division III level for a combined 19 years.
Winona State's (Minn.) Tom Brown has no head coaching experience at the collegiate level, but he has been with the Warriors for 15 years, most recently as associate head coach.
Dan Evans, on the other hand, has only been an assistant coach at Hillsdale for six seasons and that's where his coaching resume ends.
Despite that kind of inexperience, especially when compared to the other three finalists vying to become the next head men's basketball coach at Northern Michigan University, Evans said Monday during a meet and greet with local media and community members that he is ready to be a head coach at the NCAA Div. II level.
"I do believe I'm ready," Evans said. "I know I'm pretty young in the grand scheme of things. Certainly in our profession I'm pretty darn young, but I've been blessed to work for and play for (Hillsdale) coach John Tharp."
Evans played three seasons for Tharp at NCAA Div. III Lawrence University in Appleton, Wis., before being hired by Tharp when he took over the Chargers' basketball program six years ago.
As Tharp's assistant, Evans has overseen and taken part in everything, including fundraising, alumni relations, budget management, on-court practice preparation and execution, game strategy and preparation and of course, recruiting.
"Since I've joined his staff when he first arrived there, I have been given a lot of responsibility," Evans said. "Not all assistant coaches can say they have had some of the responsibilities I've been able to undertake. A lot of us (assistants), our responsibility is recruiting and some on-court instruction and not much else in relation to the development of the program.
"I've been lucky to do just about everything."
Due to Hillsdale College's high academic standards – the incoming 2011 freshmen class averaged a high school grade-point average of 3.75 – Evans said he and his fellow Charger coaches are spread thin, recruiting Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio and Indiana.
As head coach at NMU, Evans said he would focus on Michigan and Wisconsin while occasionally dipping into the Chicago area where he grew up in the Northwest suburbs.
"We will recruit Michigan kids. We will recruit Wisconsin kids," Evans said. "Those will be our primary recruiting grounds and we will try to grow them as a staff as we move forward."
Evans said NMU can play on an fairly even playing field in Wisconsin, which only has four NCAA Div. I basketball schools and a single Div. II university in Wisconsin-Parkside.
Michigan is a little different, however, with seven Div. I basketball schools, plus nine GLIAC members in Div. II.
While recruiting in an overcrowded basketball state like Michigan can be tough, Evans said he and Tharp have begun to separate tiny Hillsdale from the rest of the pack.
In six seasons, the little 1,400-student college in a town of just over 8,000 people has compiled a 107-60 record. The Chargers won their first GLIAC regular season title in 30 years in 2011-12 and reached the NCAA tournament for the first time in a decade that same season.
"What we found at Hillsdale is that over time, people are more than willing to pass up other schools if they like your program better," Evans said. "If a kid comes up here and they look at us and they say, 'These are the kind coaches I want to be around, this is perhaps the way I want to play, it's the community I want to be a part of,' they'll pass up any school in the country.
"To build it to that point takes time. It's not something that – if it's a situation I was lucky enough to come to – three weeks from now, we're going to be able to win every kid against Grand Valley (State) or Wayne (State) or Hillsdale or any other school perhaps. The key is you keep at it and you keep recruiting the right type of kids.
"We've been able to get to that point at Hillsdale so we've been able to win those battles. It didn't happen our first year at Hillsdale. It didn't happen our second year, but at some point, you just kind of get past that hurdle."
The right type of student-athlete for Evans is a high school senior that is not only committed to playing basketball for 4-5 years, but one who is also interested in going to class for 4-5 years and leaving NMU with a degree.
Evans said Div. I and II transfers may be necessary in the first few years to fill out the roster and field a team, however, he'll only accept transfers that can graduate.
As for junior college transfers, Evans said he won't recruit them at all.
"I believe very strongly that we need to recruit high-character kids who want to succeed on the court and are very competitive on the court, but they want to be competitive in the classroom and they want to be competitive in the community in the sense of representing our school, our university and our basketball program the right way," Evans said.
"(Academics) is as important as how many games we win, and while that's not the sexiest way to look at it, that's the way it is. It's the truth."

Each night is themed to highlight Dutch culture and innovation. Be sure to join us from April 26 through May 31 in Wilsey Court and throughout the museum for these exciting events and programs.

Friday Nights at the de Young are after-hours art "happenings" that include a mix of live music, dance and theater performances, film screenings, panel discussions, lectures, artist demonstrations, hands-on art activities, and exhibition tours. Local artists conduct drop-in workshops, debut new commissions, display their art in the Kimball Education Gallery, and take part in conversations about the creative process. The café offers a delicious prix-fixe menu and specialty cocktails, and the observation tower is open until 8:00 pm. Artist Fellows, Artists-in-Residence, curators, scholars, and arts educators all play an active role in making Friday Nights an engaging museum experience for all.
