Utah Artist Known for Washington Painting Dies

Arnold Friberg, a Utah artist best known for his painting of George Washington in prayer at Valley Forge, died Thursday, his family said. He was 96
Jayna Friberg-Cleamons said her father-in-law died at a Salt Lake City rehabilitation center following hip replacement surgery.
Friberg, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also painted portraits of figures from the Book of Mormon.
"He didn't want to be known as Mormon artist," Friberg-Cleamons told The Associated Press. "He just wants to be defined as an artist that painted a wide range of things."
Friberg-Cleamons said Friberg became an expert in any subject area he depicted, from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to the history of college football. She said his paintings are full of emotion.
"There's something about the light that (he) put in these paintings that just touches" people, she said. "His work inspires people."
Friberg also painted Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles, his daughter-in-law said, holding forth in his own studio at Buckingham Palace for the commission.
Friberg started drawing cartoons in his youth, according to the Deseret News in Salt Lake City.
"I drew an original cartoon every day because I wanted to be a cartoonist," he told the Deseret News in 2003.
A recorded message at Friberg Fine Art in Salt Lake City said the office will be closed until Tuesday in remembrance of Friberg, who also was nominated for an Academy Award in costume design and painted scenes for the movie "The Ten Commandments."
Friberg's "The Prayer at Valley Forge," which he created to commemorate the United States' bicentennial in 1976, is displayed at the Mount Vernon estate in Virginia. It depicts Washington kneeling in the snow beside his horse.
In 1999 a federal judge ruled that bronze sculptures made by another artist were illegal copies of "The Prayer at Valley Forge" and violated Friberg's copyright for the oil painting. Friberg had sued Jonathan Bronson in 1997, contending the two versions were unauthorized copies.
Utah Gov. Gary Herbert said in a statement Thursday that "The Prayer at Valley Forge" hangs in his office and that it inspires him daily.
"Utah is proud to call Arnold Friberg its adopted son," Herbert said. "His work is instantly recognizable and has inspired countless people, whether it is through his religious illustrations or his patriotic pieces."

Are there any laws that have to be followed when removing extensive mold from a home? | |||
common sense leads the list. if it's too bad to leave, it's too bad to deal with without at least N95 masks and serious bleach washing... clothes and site. shower yourself. ideally the type of mold should be ascertained by a professional. no air movement as much as you can control it during the removal. mold spores are everywhere, but it takes moisture, food like drywall or latex paint, and ignoring the issue for mold to take off. anybody who is on a steroid or immunosuppressant (many prescriptions for things like MS, allergies, psoriasis, or arthritis) drugs that knock down the immune system can cause a serious or fatal mold infection within the body. if you are taking anything like this, and ask your doctor if you don't know, do NOT go wandering into Mold City. it might not be treatable. what I would do if I had Mold City and couldn't afford remediation is... I would get a set of cans for my mask that are rated to filter out chlorine, mix up a four-times mix of the sterilizing mix on the back of a bleach bottle, and spray the mess down, hard. wet the next mess as I tear it out. wear a Tyvek suit and hat I could throw away after the day's work. and get that dumpster out of there as soon as possible. but then, being asmatic to start with, I'd not do it myself, I'd hire it out. period.This message has been edited. Last edited by: swschrad, sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
just an added note, instead of using laundry bleach, use liquid pool chlorine. It has 10% chlorine and houshold bleach, 5%. you can get it at any pool supply co. or walmart | ||||
Don't ask me where I heard it but had once read that bleach should not be used to defend against Mold. I believe they suggest a Borate product instead. Wish I would have bookmarked the site. Well maybe a Search of the net may produce the correct answer. | ||||
I have also read in a couple of places that bleach is not the answer. Here is a quote from http://inspectapedia.com/sickhouse/Bleach_Mold.htm "Bleach, diluted bleach, or bleach sprays used in cleaning may be appealing but they are unnecessary, potentially dangerous (if you get bleach in your eyes), and the use of bleach tends to lead to improper and inadequate cleaning - if you substitute "spraying bleach" for actually cleaning or removing the mold your cleanup will not be successful." I have also read that the moisture left behind from spraying with bleach is likely to encourage mold growth. I wish there were a better answer, because I have a problem in my attic crawl space that would be extremely expensive to solve "the right way". | ||||
I too have read that bleach is not an appropriate solution; however, I don't recall where I read that information or whether the source was one I consider reliable. There's so much online information available to vet before it can be considered authoritative. I've had success removing bleach in bathroom areas with baking soda and salt, but that also requires washing it off after scrubbing to remove the mold, so it's obviously not for every moldy situation. As to laws, you might want to consider how "public" you want this project to be. If you have a significant mold problem and get estimates from mold remediators, do you want the extent of your problem reflected in a contractor's records? I don't know what their obligations are to report any serious mold situations with which they come in contact. E.g., attorneys and doctors are required to protect confidentiality, but are contractors bound to such standards? Are they obligated, for example, to report threatening situations to a local public health department? My point is that other agencies could become involved and mandate remediation, taking the option away from you and most likely significantly increasing the remediation costs. Secondly, I'm not familiar with mold existence disclosures for any state other than Michigan, so I don't know whether you might have to disclose the existence and/or remediation efforts in your home if you decide to sell it at some time. I haven't researched this issue to know if the disclosure is required by Michigan law or if there's a Federal statute which mandates it for all states, or if it's an EPA regulation. But if you want to sell your house eventually and don't plan to stay there "forever", it might be an issue you face, particularly since you acknowledge that there is a mold issue. Third, there are some contractors who post here who are very familiar with this issue and might want to elaborate on my limited knowledge. Fourth, as an example of compliance with legal lead removal issues, I had one broken window replaced last year and had to sign various acknowledgements that the contractors had to provide legally for minimizing exposure, etc. to any mold. I haven't researched the issue to determine if this was a state or federal requirement. Fifth, I do believe that there are either laws or regulations establishing mandatory compliance with specific disposal remedies for mold affected substances, such as wood, insulation, etc. You might want to check the EPA's website to research this issue further. This is only one link to a number of EPA related articles on mold remediation: http://nlquery.epa.gov/epasear...lter=sample4filt.hts Sixth, some states have laws in addition to whatever may exist on the Federal level. See the "US and State codes" section of this site for links to specific laws in specific states: http://lawcrawler.findlaw.com/...remediation+statutes It looks as though Texas, California and Illinois each have mold remediation statutes. If you live in any of these states, you might want to check out some of the statutory links. Lastly, if you rent out the building with mold, there are additional obligations for landlords to remediate mold. | ||||
I just did a search for "borax and mold " (include the word "and ") and found severll places to check. I didn't read any, I left that up to you I have used pool chlorine on mold in my bathroom shower and eliminated it for a long time, but it did return, so I repeated the process and again it worked, but I'm sure it will return again I dont think you can entirely stop mold unless you can keep the homes humidity low enough to retard its growth | ||||
bingo, Nona! the holy grail is 40% humidity, I have heard... regular cleaning and good repair will retard mold development, but it won't be so dry the cat sticks wherever you put it... ceiling, wall, artwork. borax is an oxidizer when it breaks down, as is bleach... but bleach being chlorine makes stronger oxidation bonds, and so I would expect it would disrupt and kill slimy living things better than borax. you put on eye protection (unvented surround mask) and use a chlorine-rated air filter in your breathing mask, no problem. if you mix 4x the bottle recommendation, it's no worse than the air in the health club pool room. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||

West Haven is a town of about 12,000. It was established in 1991 and has always been under the protection of the Weber County Sheriff's Department, but that may soon change.
West Haven Mayor Brian Melaney explained, "We have a signed contract with the county that takes us though the year 2016 and they want to discard it and renegotiate the contract."
Two years ago the Weber County Commission ordered a look at the budget and, according to the sheriff's department, it found some huge discrepancies; the largest in West Haven.
Chief Deputy Klint Anderson said, "We were expensing almost a million dollars in services, county taxpayer money, and they were playing out of that about $340,000 dollars worth."
So instead of paying the $354,000 West Haven has been paying for years, the county is asking the city to pay almost $850,000. For Hooper it would be a cost increase from about $280,000 to $455,000. With that kind of money the mayors are considering starting up a police department of their own.
Melaney said "Looking at it, if we paid the full contract to the sheriff's department, 850,000, at the end of the year what do we have? We don't have any assets. If we took that same amount of money at the end of the year we have some assets and we're moving forward from there."
It's an idea the Weber County Sheriff's Department actually encourages.
Chief Deputy Anderson said, "If they form their own police department it actually ends up being a cost savings for us and for the tax payers in general because we don't shoulder that cost and West Haven takes it on for themselves."
Both mayors of West Haven and Hooper say it's still very early on in the planning process, but Melaney told ABC 4 News even without partnering with Hooper, it's likely they're going to start a police department on their own. Their contract with the sheriff's department expires on June 30th, 2013.

Patch 1.19
Like (0)
Infinity Ward, this patch is ridiculous. I get to play maybe one full game of every five. Please change it back, I'd rather play a full game with a wallhacker than short parts of games.(which still have 'unknown' cheaters)
Additionally, what qualifies a 'known' cheater? I get accused of cheating quite a bit(even though I often have a mediocre score such as 27-19). Let's say these people report me, would I be classified as a cheater and then stuck in multiple lobbies with cheaters, or is it based on some other system?
If anybody could enlighten me on this, that would be lovely.
If any one plays well in this game "any other for that matter" the first thing typed up on screen is Cheater and to be honest it will stay that way for some time to come, simply because they are so many cheats in this game, and yes if you read how this anti cheat works if some one leaves the game half way through then it just stops the game and asumes that player has left because they was some one cheating, and the chances are he / she would not get to play with those in that game again "well that's my view on what I have read so far" and the outcome is cheats will play against cheats and lagit players should end up playing each other, or something like that. but I may be wrong and will be corrected
You make a good point, Hootymadman. Oftentimes I see people who are clearly skilled players (knowledge of spawns, using sound, etc) who are wrongly accused of cheating by the lesser skilled players. It's quite ridiculous and, if this system is based on reports, will make it very unreliable.
Sounds are the most common ways of detecting other players are near, and using a decent headset works wonders. you can hear a player running over ammo or the click of a uav, etc even movement through grass dropping off a step gives them away, Our clan play cod 4 and I often get "how did you know I was there" typed up on the screen, you ran over some ammo and I turned and seen you??? and that's from our own clan members, learn to play and don't just run about shooting, I always stop for a couple of seconds listen then move, plus you get a big red dot on the map that gives a players possion away,and the direction of the shot is a good give away. tactics use tactics I tell them, don't just run around like a newbie
My k/d in most games, including MW3 is around 0.8 (which in english is somewhere between crap and poor) - I get called a cheater now and again.
You gotta laugh, but given the commonality of hacking in MW3, it's to be expected.
Well anyway, I believe we've established that people are paranoid about cheaters (rightfully so, I guess), but I wanna know more about this patch.

Valentine's Day On A Budget: 6 Ideas
By Josie Brown
Valentine's Day can be enjoyed at all ages, stages, and income levels of life. But what can you do that says, "I love you," when you're on a tight budget? Here are six loving and affordable acts that prove that love never needs to be spelled: m-o-n-e-y!
1. Home Cooking
Make a special celebration at home. Candles, flowers, a good meal, and a great wine can say I love you for less than the cost of two appetizers and drinks at a lot of today's high-end restaurants. What's your love's favorite dish? Make it. (Yes, you can!) Going out quite often means compromising your favorite foods for what someone else puts on the menu. Best of all, you can snuggle up in each other's arms, and kiss the night away.
2. Agree to Exchange Intimate Gifts
No, I don't mean edible underwear, but rather token gifts of love. Perhaps for $25 or less, these gifts are a result of the intimate knowledge you have of one another. The object here is to give something from the heart that connects with some aspect of your relationship. Maybe it's a DVD of his favorite film as a kid, or a special item from an experience you both shared. Get creative, and put in a lot of thought. The time you took to think about this gift is what makes it so special.
3. Be Naughty and Nice
Christmas was so yesterday. It's no longer about being naughty or nice. Valentine's Day is the best time to be a little bit of both. Get him something sexy that you want him to wear, just for you. He can do the same for you. This is the best day in which to enjoy being the object of each other's love--and it's so much more fun being an object of lust.
4. Bubble Baths and Candles
Run a warm tub, get out the fluffiest towels, light those candles and make sure those bubbles have a delicious scent. I'll leave the rest to your imagination…
5. Run away Together
We do so much for others on just about every day of the year; consider making Valentine's Day a special occasion, just for the two of you. Perhaps it can't be on that special day, but that's okay. You'll find better travel deals on the Sunday before, or the Saturday after, so jump in the car, hop on a train, or get on take the bus and make it a one day getaway. In fact, most travel and lodging prices have not been this affordable in years. So go somewhere you love to go or have always wanted to see, and make it a special time, just for the two of you!
6. Best Valentine's Card Ever
For couples who hope to celebrate this and all future Valentine's Days together, nothing means more than a love note inside a card. The meals, the candy, the token gifts all fade in time, but those handwritten notes passed between two lovers are tucked away and forever saved. A simple heart is the symbolic image of Valentine's Day and loving words that come from the heart are treasures we keep for a lifetime.
Josie Brown's latest novel is The Housewife Assassin's Handbook. Her book, Secret Lives of Husbands and Wives, will soon be a dramatic series on ABC TV.

"Cruise From Hell" Passengers Return to West Texas
By: Marianne Elisak
Updated: February 15, 2013
MIDLAND---More than 4,000 people were stuck on the busted Carnival cruise ship named 'Triumph' and on Friday evening, West Texas residents who were passengers made it back home.
This story made national headlines and some are even calling it "the cruise from hell".
A fire knocked out the cruise's engine about 150 miles off Mexico's peninsula over the weekend, leaving passengers and loved ones back home not knowing what would happen.
Lots of happy faces were at the Midland International Airport as people greeted their loved ones who made it home at last.
Greta Olivier was one of the passengers and says "because of all the prayers and the support, that's why we can come home today".
People at the airport held signs saying "we missed you" and "we love you" while anxiously awaiting their loved ones.
"Not knowing what's going on is really a terrible experience" says Greta's husband, McConnell Olivier.
This all comes after an engine fire that took place on Sunday, leaving the cruise ship without power while drifting in the Gulf of Mexico.
Olivier says that they waited for hours to get food, that got worse the longer the trip carried on.
But mainly Olivier talked about relief and the happiness that came from all 4,000 passengers after seeing land on Friday.
The vessel was towed into Mobile, Alabama and on Friday evening, passengers finally reunited with their loved ones.

Family Issues
Children�s rights and duties
We were all children once and, one day, our children will become adults. They way they treat us, their parents, and their own children has its foundations in the way we treat our children from birth, through their childhood, and into adulthood.
Children are a blessing, and without question they strengthen the family bond. In Islam, bringing children into the world is a religious obligation, which ensures that the community of the faithful is broadened, and that the family line may continue. Many people look on households where there are no children to be lacking God's blessing, and every family should look on children as a source of light and joy.
Islam holds children to be both vulnerable and dependent, and therefore in need of protection – spiritually, physically, and materially. Consequently, Islamic law sets out a series of rules and guidelines that parents should abide by to provide their children with the love and support that ensures their development within the faith.
All children born within a marriage are legitimate and their paternity cannot be called into question. Islam does not permit adoption because of the importance of ensuring that family lines can be continued down the father's (patrilineal) line.
Who is responsible?
Both parents must be involved in their children's upbringing. However, the child's father has primary responsibility in providing for his or her care. Islam recognises that this is not always possible – for instance because the father has died or because the father has insufficient means to provide for the child. Under these circumstances, the child's paternal grandfather must care for the child. If this is not possible, then the child's other paternal relatives must take care of him. Finally, if no paternal relatives are able to care for the child, another relative will suffice.
Where the parents divorce or separate, the mother will generally have custody of the children, and maternal relatives will care for the children in the absence of the mother. However, all children who have not reached maturity have the right to a guardian. This can be the father, or an honourable and trustworthy person appointed by the father to protect the child's interests.
Rights of the children
Children have the right to:
- be nourished, clothed, and protected until they reach adulthood
This is normally the father's duty, although the mother should also take a role in providing physical, emotional, and material support. - receive an education
Parents must ensure that their children are taught at school or college, and that they receive a good education (including a moral and religious education). Parents should also take an interest in their children's schooling, spending time with them to help with homework, reading, or project work. Most importantly, the best moral and religious training can often come from the parents themselves – not from teachers, sermons, or well-intentioned advice from friends or family. Parents set the best example, the example their children will follow. A Hadith notes: "The best of you is one who gives a good intellectual and moral education to his children". Above all, parents should fill their child's heart with faith.
As mentioned above, parents have a duty to ensure their children's religious, moral and spiritual development. Boys receive their religious education from their fathers, and girls from their mothers. Children are welcomed into Islam from birth and will begin to appreciate the foundations of their faith at an early age, but their true religious learning only begins at the age of tamyiz (the age of discernment). Religious education is nowadays generally offered as part of the state education system, although some parents prefer their children to attend Qur'anic schools. - love and affection
All children need to be nourished emotionally as well as physically. They need to be hugged, kissed, and to experience affection, and they need to understand that their parents love them deeply. Once, a Bedouin witnessed the Prophet (ṣall Allahu ʿalayhi wa sallam صلى الله عليه وسلم) kissing a child. He remarked in surprise: "I have eight children but never kiss them". The Prophet (ṣall Allahu ʿalayhi wa sallam صلى الله عليه وسلم) answered the Bedouin by saying: "What can I do if Allah has emptied your heart of love and compassion?"
Love and leniency, if offered correctly, can be the best methods of raising children. Use strictness rarely as enforcing discipline this way can be counter-productive. But be wary of being over-protective: your children need to find their own feet, and cannot do so if you do not give them the chance to develop as free-thinking individuals. - be well provided for
Parents, naturally, want to give their children the best of everything where possible. But it is important to remember that material wealth must be tempered by religious devotion. Parents should also not sacrifice their own material well-being for the sake of the children - as the Hadith says: "It is better for parents to leave their children well-provided for financially than to leave them in poverty". Neither overspending nor miserliness is to be tolerated. - to be treated equally with their siblings
All children in a family should be treated fairly and with equality. A son should not be preferred over a daughter, nor should a daughter receive more gifts, love, or attention than a son. Parents should also be aware that withholding part of an inheritance from a child is unjust in the eyes of Islam. Injustice, of course, leads to hate, anger, and a discontentment that affects the whole family unit. There are no circumstances when a child can be singled out for preferential treatment – only Allah (Subhaanahu Wa Taala سبحانه و تعالى) can reward kindness, devotion, and a child's duty.
However, if a child falls ill and cannot afford medical care, or is to marry but cannot afford the cost of a wedding, then parents may choose to provide financial support as this would be classed as providing for the child's essential needs.
But let us not forget that, whilst the rights of the children are a reflection of the parents' duties, Islam also provides for the rights of parents, which can be seen as duties required from the children.
Rights of the parents
Parents do not just provide food, clothing, and shelter for their children. They give them spiritual and moral guidance, and they help them to grow into young adults who are well-equipped to make a valuable and useful contribution to society. To do so, parents often sacrifice their own comforts, sleep, and time to provide for their children, and they work hard to ensure that all their needs are met. The mother has more rights than the father, in recognition of her efforts to bear the child, to deliver the baby, and to nurture the infant. The Prophet (ṣall Allahu ʿalayhi wa sallam صلى الله عليه وسلم) declares that a mother is worthy of three times the good treatment that a child offers his father. A Hadith also describes that "Paradise lies under the feet of the mother". [Ibn Majah]
Parents have the right to:
- be respected and obeyed
Parents always have the best interests of their children at heart, and children must remember that this is the case. Children must not disobey their parents' wishes, even if they disagree with what they are being asked to do. To act against one's parents is disrespectful and incurs God's anger. - to admonish (scold)
Children must remember that their parents have a duty to protect and encourage their religious and intellectual growth, and to help them grow rounded, well-informed characters. As a result, children should not resent any strictness displayed by their parents; they should instead recognise that their parents are doing their duty, in the best interests of their offspring. - to be cared for
Just as parents care for children when they are vulnerable, so children, as adults, must care for their parents – financially as well as physically – when they grow old and infirm. The Qur'an says: "People ask you (O Prophet) how should they spend. Say, 'whatever you spend should be spent on Allah (in good cause), on parents, near relatives, on orphans, destitutes and travellers (who fall short of money in foreign lands)". - to be treated with kindess
Children must not be rude to their parents, nor must they forget the sacrifices and support their parents offered them. Parents have a right to be treated with respect, and without harshness. - to be aided when necessary
It is a fact of life that, the older people get, the less capable they become. Parents have a right to expect support from their children whether in terms of helping with the shopping or cleaning, repairing or decorating property, or any other tasks that the parent can no longer manage by themselves. Children have a duty to help willingly where they can.
Rights of infants
It is also worth noting that there are some traditions and rituals that should be completed with the birth of a new child. Generally speaking, the father or appointed legal guardian must oversee the fulfillment of these rituals, which include:
- when a child is born, the Azan (Muslim call to prayer) must be whispered in both its ears;
- chewing some dates or sweets then putting them in the baby's mouth and rubbing the paste on the child's palate. This is to train the child to eat;
- cleaning the baby;
- choosing a good name for the child – both parents can choose the name, but if they cannot agree on a name for their child, the father will decide;
- seven days after the child's birth, the aqiqa ceremony takes place, where a sheep is slaughtered and the child's hair is shaved. Tradition also suggests that a donation of silver equivalent to weight of the shaved hair is given to the poor;
- between seven and fifteen days after the birth of a male child, circumcision (Khitan) may take place. (The Qur'an does not permit female circumcision.)
When does a child reach adulthood?
In Islam, childhood is a special period in every life, but just as infancy gives way to childhood, so childhood must give way to maturity.
Scholars and legal experts do not always agree about the precise age when boys and girls come of age. For girls, the age of majority (bulughin Islamic law) is normally the age when menstruation starts. For boys, the age of majority may be seen as 18, when boys come into manhood. However, sometimes it is enough for the child to declare that they have reached puberty for them to be declared bulugh.

Have you ever been in a major city and just looked at everything around you wondering how so many different pieces could have come together into a package of urbanity? Gary Hustwit has, and it's the reason he set up to finish his trilogy of design documentaries analyzing the largest designs of them all: city development. If you have Netflix Instant and watch docs, you have probably come across the first two: Helvetica and Objectified. Both are excellent docs about fascinating subjects. I mean, this guy made a 90-minute documentary about a font type and it was compelling. Rock on. From fonts, he analyzed objects themselves, from something as complex as a MacBook Air to something as seemingly simple as a chair. Now, Hustwit has moved up several higher layers to analyze cities themselves: perhaps the most complex design structures we know, in Urbanized. Continue Reading

Some gods do not want the child dead and try to conceal him from the gods eyes and keep him safe yet Zeus vows to kill the god or make hades pay. The child has to find a way to please the gods and show them that he means no harm. So he has to do an adventure where he needs five friends and four enemies tracking him down. Doron must find the many heros of the world but he faces challenges along the way with his friends.

Negative influence on NASA and science is certainly something you can associate with the current Republican admin. George W Bush giving NASA the new herculean goals while cutting their funding, using his veto power against stem-cell science, putting the Uber-Christian George Deutsch in control of NASA's press.
Carter came after the troubled Nixon/Ford presidency, James Earl Carter he was the only president on record to actually file the UFO sighting report related to his sighting, Carter also had very strong backing from evangelical voters. Nixon was a problem, he shutdown Apollo, as a compromise to the people at NASA who were finding themselves shutdown Nixon approved the Shuttle, Gerald Ford seemed to be very inactive at NASA, and Jimmy Carter seemed to be more interested in this flying saucer stuff, with NASA's Voyager mission Carter was supposed to have recorded a message for the alien civilizations of the galaxy. Do you guys remember those years and did he have a negative impact on the space program, or was it just a harmless attraction to this UFO idea ?
I suppose this question is addressed to the 40 year+ members of baut, who studied, worked, lived...during this time.

Two NFL Players Missing
By: Maria Oliver/NBC
Updated: March 2, 2009
Coast Guard Officials say four boaters left from Clearwater pass on a fishing trip early Saturday morning in a 21-foot boat.
NFL Officials have confirmed that Oakland Raiders Linebacker Marquis Cooper and Detroit Lions Defensive End Corey Smith are among the missing boaters.
The coast guard is searching a 750-square mile area by sea and air.
Authorities say the current weather conditions are making the search difficult.
Coast guard searchers are encountering 14-foot seas and 30 mile-per-hour wind gusts, that make it hard to spot the small white boat.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Bio
Beyond the tragedy, the history, the raging guitars and the killer songs, ultimately, Lynyrd Skynyrd is about an indomitable will. About survival of spirit; unbowed, uniquely American, stubbornly resolute.
With their first set of new studio material since 2003's Vicious Cycle, legendary rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd returns with God & Guns, due out September 29 on Loud & Proud/Roadrunner Records. Recorded in Nashville in 2008-2009, the project was interrupted—but, tellingly, not ended—by the deaths of founding member/keyboardist Billy Powell and longtime bassist Ean Evans earlier this year.
Driven by core members Gary Rossington (guitar), Johnny Van Zant (vocals) and Rickey Medlocke (guitar), along with longtime drummer Michael Cartellone, Lynyrd Skynyrd have recorded an album ("under duress, as usual," according to Van Zant) that very much lives up to the legacy begun some 35 years ago in Jacksonville, Florida, and halted for a decade by the 1977 plane crash that killed three band members, including Ronnie Van Zant and Steve Gaines. Since then, the band tragically lost Allen Collins, Leon Wilkeson and Hughie Thomasson, yet they rock on.
With the passing of Powell and Evans, "a lot of people probably expected us to say enough is enough," admits Medlocke. But that would not be the way of this Rock & Roll Hall of Fame powerhouse. With a catalog of over 60 albums and sales beyond 30 million, Lynyrd Skynyrd remains a cultural icon that appeals to all generations, and God & Guns is a fitting addition to the canon. The Skynyrd Nation awaits.
"We wanted to show the people that not only are we doing the old material, keeping the music going, but we still have some new tricks up our sleeves, too," says founding guitarist Gary Rossington.
Returning to the studio after the death of Powell, whose keyboards can be heard on more than half the songs on God & Guns, was "very difficult, I ain't gonna lie to you," says Van Zant. "But we got through it, as Lynyrd Skynyrd seems to always do. Music's a great healer. These songs needed to be out there, this record needed to be made. Gary, Rickey and myself just said 'let's go for it, let's get this thing done.'"
Unfortunately, coping with loss is familiar to this band. "We just kind of fell back in," says Rossington. "We've been doing this a long time, so you just kind of do what you do. As you get older, you get a little more used to it. You know it's coming, and it's coming to you, too. I just thank God for every day and all the time I had with the guys that aren't with us anymore."
The crying is over and now it's time to rock. "We've had some really bad moments this year already, and I'm glad we're able to pick ourselves up by our boot straps and just continue to play," says Medlocke. "For us to weather through this makes this record even more special. I'm sure Billy and Ean are looking down upon us with big smiles."
With noted rock producer Bob Marlette, input from guitarist John 5, and a wealth of material written by the band and a cadre of elite Skynyrd-minded songwriters, a remarkable album emerged. "We never really worked with producers that well, we kind of always wanted to do it our way," admits Rossington. "But Bob Marlette came on and he's such a great guy; he figured out how to talk to us musically, and we became friends instantly. He had a lot of fresh ideas and ways to do things, and also wanted to capture the old sounds, too."
Of John 5, Rossington adds, "he's probably one of the best guitar players I've ever played with, and I've played with a lot of great ones. He just lives with a guitar on him, and he knows that neck like nobody I've ever seen."
With a backbone of Southern rock and country, passionate Van Zant vocals, and trademark layered guitars, God & Guns manages to maintain the iconic Skynyrd punch while sounding completely contemporary. Sure to attract attention in these politically divided times is the title track, which harbors a sense of menace and unwillingness to back down that hearkens back to Skynyrd's earliest days. The band knows the song, and others like "That Ain't My America," will have their critics, but Medlocke says listeners should get beyond the title.
"It's not just the words 'God and guns.' you gotta look past that and look at what this country was founded on: freedom," Medlocke says. "Everybody should be able to make their own decisions and not be led around by a nose ring and told what to do and when to do it."
And if some critics don't like it, "that's called freedom of choice," says Medlocke, who carries his Native American heritage with pride. "I'm sure some critics will look at it, God & Guns, the rednecks are back.' Well, the guys in this band aren't rednecks, Rickey Medlocke's the only damn redneck in this band 'cause I got red skin."
The title track, along with the unmistakable Skynyrd bite of the first single "Still Unbroken," form thematic songs for an album laden with attitude, heart and purpose. "Skynyrd's about tradition," says Medlocke. "We are guys that don't go around preaching about our own personal or political beliefs, although I'm sure you could probably guess mine. In this record is personal tragedy, personal relationships and being on the road, all under that umbrella of real life. That's what we think, that's what we believe, and we stand next to that title, God & Guns."
To portray Skynyrd as a bunch of "gun nuts" would be incorrect, according to Van Zant. "I'm kind of like Ronnie, 'handguns are made for killing,' and I've never seen anybody shoot a deer with a .38," he says. "I do own a bunch of rifles, I live out in the swamp, and you've got to protect yourself."
Skynyrd is a band, after all, that has never shied away from standing up and speaking for a segment of the population whose voices are seldom heard. "Everybody's so scared to say stuff these days, that's not what I'm about," says Van Zant. "We live in America, we can speak our minds. These are our values. That doesn't mean we're always right in everybody's mind. Hopefully, we don't offend a bunch of people. And if we do, well, get a record deal, man, and make your own songs."
This is a band well aware of the responsibility that comes with putting the name 'Lynyrd Skynyrd' on anything, be it an album or a concert. "We feel like we have to keep the standards high," says Rossington. "I wouldn't put this record out, I'd fight not to, if I didn't think it was good."
And so Skynyrd stands, "still unbroken," in 2009. "People may say, 'they need the money,' well I don't think any of us need the money," Van Zant says. "It's just that we love the music, it's bigger than the money, it's not even about that any more. We have to make a living, sure, but it's about the legacy of Lynyrd Skynyrd, and what it stands for, what the fans are all about. There's nothing like getting out there playing a great show with Skynyrd and seeing people love this music."
Adds Rossington, "We're still standing, still keeping the music going. We wanted to do the guys who aren't with us any more proud, and keep the name proud, too."

I am sorry we missed the Simple Man Cruise. My husband, Bo, had a quad bypass on the day we were to fly out. If we would have chose the cruise, most likely Bo would not have come back. We sent an awesome couple in our place and they had a great time. We will see you next year. I know Kathi and Chuck had asked Andy with Sixthman and I had asked Sara, if they would ask the band if you would sign a pic wishing Bo well. But they said it couldn't happen. I don't want to think Sixthman or Lynyrd Skynyrd would be that non caring about fans. We paid for the cruise, did not ask for money back or anything, not even a teeshirt. Just wanted something to let my husband know he matters and people care. Brought Bo home yesterday. Kind of ironic he went into the hospital the day we were to leave and came home the day we were to come back from the SMC. Love your music! Can't wait till next cruise. Member and Bo Williams

@lisa66: Ms. lisa66, I live in Canada and Skynyrd rarely comes up here. I hope that makes you feel better. Lucky for albums/CD's eh? Lucky for the internet too. Take care way down there. It's spring down under i'm guessing and it's fall way up here. Trade ya places for about 7 months? Naw, I wouldn't wish that on just about anyone. -40 below is something you likely won't get used too, especially for 6 or 7 months...like way up here near Hudson's Bay...unless polar bears don't scare ya. Take care fellow SkynHead.
lisa66 // October 02, 2012 2:52:45 PM UTC
Its 12.45am Skynyrd is on the Craig Ferguson show .. Last of a dyin breed.. You guys need to tour down under ( summer 2013 ) PLEASE........
treblejunkie // October 02, 2012 2:19:01 PM UTC
@chrissy-fox: I became a boafide die-hard Lynyrd Skynyrd fan in the summer of '75, when I was only 15. I love this band like my family and will way past I'm gone from this world. I certainly hope they got Skynyrd where ever I go when this body expires. Glad to meet another SkynHead. Both your dad (R.I.P.), and you have great tastes in music. Long live the Lynyrd Skynyrd Band. I hope I will get to meet the boys in heaven, or where ever we go from here. Take care Ms. crissy-fox. I really hope your health improves...I really do.

STRAIGHT JACKET© Sunglasses
Oakley made STRAIGHT JACKET© sunglasses for those who understand that style is something you define yourself - it's not the world's idea of how you should look. If you need the world's opinion, STRAIGHT JACKET© isn't meant for you. The first design was created more than a decade ago, and it blended the art of Oakley with the science of precision optics. This latest edition combines aggressive styling with the best technologies ever to dominate light rays.
We optimized the lenses with a permanent coating called Oakley HYDROPHOBIC™ that maintains a smudge-resistant barrier against skin oils, sunscreens and lotions, and even repels dust and dirt. That's in addition to repelling water and preventing wet sheens from corrupting your point of view. You also get the unbeatable clarity of HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS© (HDO©) including patented technologies like XYZ OPTICS© for crystal clear vision along the entire lens contour. The optics are so sharp, they exceed all ANSI Z87.1 standards.
Protection meets ANSI Z87.1 standards for both high-velocity and high-mass impact, and the pure PLUTONITE© lenses filter out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm. The durable, lightweight O MATTER© frame utilizes soft UNOBTAINIUM© components to increase grip with perspiration. It's all part of a Three-Point Fit that holds the lenses in precise optical alignment and offers all-day comfort.
STRAIGHT JACKET© is available with a range of options including IRIDIUM© lens coatings that balance light and reduce glare, lenses ACTIVATED BY TRANSITIONS© to darken in response to light, and even the best polarized lenses on the planet.
