Considered by many the weakest track on With The Beatles, "Hold Me Tight", mostly composed by Paul McCartney, is devalued even by the group. Lennon called it a pretty poor effort, and McCartney himself thought of it as just a "work song", something that was hammered into a shape just acceptable enough to be album filler. It was actually first recorded for the first album, Please Please Me, but the results weren't good enough and the tapes were destroyed.
All this may be true, but while there isn't anything very special in the tune or lyrics, the flaws in the song become charms. Much like hearing The Beatles flub a take in some of the song's on the '90s Anthology volumes showed an appealing human quality to this mythical, amazingly proficient band, hearing Paul's ragged, out-of-tune singing in the middle of the song ("You…don't know…what it means…to hold you tight…"), against the stark arranging of chugging bass, drums and handclaps is to hear the real, exhausted band in the midst of their otherwise slick, excellent second LP. It sounds more like, one imagines, how The Beatles sounded in Hamburg, hoarse, sweaty, and getting through an eight hour day of performing with booze and amphetamines. The song has not been covered all that much, but notably by a Phil Spector-produced group, The Treasures, as well as by Evan Rachel Wood in the Beatles-inspired film musical, Across the Universe.
This ranks as one of the most faithful of the Beatles' cover songs, using a similar arrangement to Chuck Berry's 1956 original classic, but rocking on for a few extra bars. Where it differs is that there isn't any piano on the Beatles' version, and the recording itself is much more dynamically produced. To be clear, there's a lot of appeal to the more upfront, natural-sounding Berry vocals, and it's understandable many would prefer his to the reverb-heavy, double-tracked Harrison lead vocal. Berry is also at this point a faster guitarist than Harrison; Harrison would subsequently work more on tone. But Ringo's drums and the handclaps of Lennon and McCartney are much punchier than the thin snare on the Berry version, plus McCartney's chugging bass adds more power. Bigger isn't always better, but in this case I think the cover just edges out the original, though Berry's witty lyrics, which reference not only classical music but other popular songs of the day and his own label mate Bo Diddley ("Hey Diddle Diddle"), remain uniquely his, and kind of a mouthful for Harrison. Although '50s rock and roll sounds as old-fashioned to many people today as the classical music it makes fun of, the song at least retains its playful character. Featured on second LP, With the Beatles, from 1963, and 1994's Live at the BBC, taken from a 1964 special called The Beatles: From Us To You.
One of those odd things about Motown Records is that they put the lie to great songwriting being the result of just one or two inspired people working together. "Please Mister Postman" started as a blues number by William Garrett, who gave it to friend Georgia Dobbins to rework as an audition piece for Motown with her band, The Marvels. She left the group and was replaced, the group becoming The Marvelettes, and the song was reworked again by in-house songwriting partnership Brian Holland and Robert Bateman, the final result becoming a 1961 hit and enduring classic, and somewhere along the line adding Freddie Gorman to the current listing of five composers.
The Beatles played this song in their Cavern Club days but had dropped it from their live set months before they decided to record it for their second LP, With the Beatles, requiring a bit of rehearsal to get it into shape again for the 30 July 1963 sessions. Lennon takes lead vocals on this one, as he did more often than not on the Motown covers, adding that throaty growl where once there were smooth male or, in this case, female, vocals. It's originally a song about a girl hoping for a letter from her boyfriend, who's away at war, though the war isn't explicitly mentioned even in the original. The Beatles change the gender, so it's just about a lonely guy hoping to hear from his girlfriend, who's so far away. The song works with a note of desperation in it; after all, the subject is not just waiting for a letter, but stops the postman when they're leaving, insisting they check their bag another time, just in case they've overlooked the letter. Unfortunately, some of the emotional pull of the song is lost in the cavernous, wall of sound production. It's a very good, slick cover of the song, but not a reinvention of, or improvement upon, the original the way that, in my opinion, "Twist and Shout" is.
A minor song in the band's catalogue, it's nonetheless an important one historically, as it's the first real George Harrison composition (he got a cowriting credit with McCartney for doing the solo on "In Spite of All the Danger" and solo credit for "Cry for a Shadow," but that was a pastiche of The Shadows and not really an original idea). "Don't Bother Me" is unusually sullen for The Beatles at this time, but as they would go on it would become clear that Harrison nearly matched Lennon for anger, which both of them tried to drown in substances or work through in meditation.
Featured on their second album, With the Beatles, the song doesn't lack for production, with double-tracked vocals for George, reverbed guitar, and fantastic stop-start Latin-influenced drumming from Ringo. Rhythmically it's almost giddy, but the minor chords and George's dismissive vocals mute its success. Probably realizing this, the middle is both vocally and lyrically more positive and upbeat. It's really less a kiss-off song than a song about defense. George's character is telling the girl to go away because she means too much to him and it hurts to have her around.

According to Paul McCartney, this song was written by him on a bus, lyrics first, which was a first for him and not something he's done much since. He's a tune-first guy. Envisioned as more of a country-western number, it retains some of that feel in George's solo, but it's really a platonic ideal of early Beatles pop, a sweet love song with excellent rhythm guitar by John and vocals and lyrics by Paul to make the girls swoon. Their second song written in the form of a letter to a girl, I happen to prefer the earlier "P.S. I Love You," but this one is still pretty great. Dreamy Paul would have snagged a lot of girls just based on looks and playing in a band, but he was crafty, too: these lyrics about missing the girl but promising to be true while he's away are designed to appeal to the target audience here. Not to oversimplify, but a lot of John's love songs are more nakedly needy rather than trying to say what someone wants to hear. He wrote his share of empty sentiment, too, but it's probably fair to say that while both men no doubt wanted attention and love, Paul was more willing to beg or connive to get it.
It's one of their catchiest songs not to ever become a single, though EMI rectified this somewhat with the All My Loving EP in 1964. The song appears first on With The Beatles, recorded 30 July 1963, mixed in mono 21 August and then much later in stereo on 29 October, as stereo was still misunderstood at this time and considered something of a fad for hi-fi geeks. The song was performed for The Beatles' first Ed Sullivan performance, and that recording is on Anthology 1. A February 1964 BBC performance was released on Live at the BBC in 1994.
The second song from With The Beatles, this one was entirely a Lennon composition written for the American market. As evidence of this, the lyrics refer to calling a girl on the telephone, which according to Lennon was unthinkable to a British teen. For the better, for most of the band's career, when Lennon/McCartney tried to write like one of their influences, it never sounded all that much like them, but this is pretty close in subject and structure to a Smokey Robinson & The Miracles song. It's lyrically inconsequential, but becomes intriguing in combination with the music, with the heavy bass chords and Lennon's weary, yearning vocal belying the message that whenever he needs his girl by his side, a simple phone call is all that's required to make her come running home. The way he sings it, and the way the band plays it, it's more like a morbid fantasy of a girl who doesn't exist, or if she does, she's a lot harder to get than that.
The first song from The Beatles second EMI LP, With the Beatles, and the first song recorded for it. Musicians and critics have made note of how unusual the middle eight is, with its chromatically descending chords, but to me, the middle isn't just functional and not that memorable. Mostly, it's a simple song based on a cute idea—using "be long" and "belong" together—but it works because of Ringo's pummeling drums and the rising call-and-response "yeah"s between John and Paul & George that sound as close to orgasmic as 1963 pop music got. It might sound tame now to some, but The Beatles broke down the door for screaming in Pop with songs like this. It also sounds a little fuzzier and bigger than anything on Please Please Me; in other words it announces that The Beatles have made another step forward.
Recorded 30 July 1963 in two sessions, despite its ecstatic arrangement the song was never performed live by the band.
We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming.
I really thought I was going to review every single track The Beatles released, more or less chronologically, but I've come to realize that the dozens of covers they learned for their pre-fame repertoire are more fun to listen to than to write about. That's on me, I suppose, as I've just found it difficult to come up with ways to describe George's guitar playing or John's or Paul's vocals on each song. The thing is, these songs are all of a piece, rhythm and blues, rockabilly or country tracks mostly from the late '50s, songs the band members grew up with, records they collected and traded and learnt their instuments to. It's their heart and their school. Some of these songs are on their first four albums, before they started producing so much original material they had no need for covers again, aside from songs to warm up to in the studio. And some have turned up long after The Beatles' career was over, on the Anthology series and on Live at the BBC. Here are the tracks from Live at the BBC, minus Beatle originals or covers that turn up on their albums:
1. "I Got a Woman" 2. "Too Much Monkey Business" 3. "Keep Your Hands Off My Baby" 4. "Young Blood" 5. "A Shot of Rhythm and Blues 6. "Sure to Fall (In Love with You)" 7. "Some Other Guy" 8. "That's All Right, Mama" 9. "Carol" 10. "Soldier of Love (Baby Lay Down Your Arms" 11. "Clarabella" 12. "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Cry (Over You)" 13. "Crying, Waiting, Hoping 14. "To Know Her Is To Love Her" 15. "The Honeymoon Song" 16. "Memphis, Tennessee" 17. "Sweet Little Sixteen" 18. "Lonesome Tears In My Eyes" 19. "Nothin' Shakin'" 20. "The Hippy Hippy Shake" 21. "Glad All Over" 22. "I Just Don't Understand" 23. "So How Come (No One Loves Me)" 24. "I Forgot To Remember To Forget" 25. "I Got To Find My Baby" 26. "Don't Ever Change" 27. "Lucille"
I think that about covers it. Unfortunately, it's an album that has yet to be remastered, but it came out in the '90s and still sounds pretty good. Anyway, the reason they're all grouped together here instead of reviewed individually is because they're all of a piece. This is The Beatles learning their trade, learning and playing songs they enjoyed so they could have concert material. Most are close to the quality of the covers that ended up on the albums. The thing is, while they're all worth listening to, if you just hear the albums, you're not truly missing a lot. Paul ripping through a Little Richard-sounding "Clarabella" isn't much different than Paul ripping through "Kansas City/Hey Hey Hey Hey" from Beatles For Sale. "Memphis, Tennessee" or "Sweet Little Sixteen"? The Beatles covered Chuck Berry's "Roll Over Beethoven" and "Rock and Roll Music" elsewhere. Songs like "The Hippy Hippy Shake" are fun because other British Invasion groups had success with it, so it sounds like an All-Star team stepping onto the field for an inning. Precious trifles like "The Honeymoon Song" and "I Forgot To Remember To Forget" are charming because they're clearly material unworthy of The Beatles and yet ennobled by their sincere effort at bringing them to life. I'm partial to "Too Much Monkey Business," which is one of the few songs I've heard to use the word "imbibe," and "Soldier of Love" is a terrific Motown tribute. But basically this is the band building a repertoire and figuring out which of their influences they could wear most comfortably.
Based on the recorded evidence, The Beatles may have liked Carl Perkins best of all the fathers of rock and roll, though it's likely they were too intimidated to cover Elvis. "Sure to Fall (in Love with You)" was planned as Perkins' follow-up to his hit, "Blue Suede Shoes," but it didn't work out that way, only released to DJs and then on a 1957 album. The Beatles must have liked their arrangement of the song a lot, as they recorded it four times live in the BBC studios. The released version, on 1994's Live at the BBC, was dated 1 June 1963. It's marked by a slow, loping Country-Western arrangement, though Paul's earnest vocal is nice. I've never heard the Perkins version, but would imagine if he'd considered it single material, it was probably faster and bouncier.
One of the many rockabilly songs in The Beatles' live repertoire, this one was first performed by Johnny Burnette & His Rock & Roll Trio in 1957, and it was written by Burnette, his brother Dorsey, Paul Burlison, and Al Mortimer. The Beatles recorded it live in the studio for BBC program, Pop Go The Beatles, 23 July 1963, five months after recording their first album, and a month or so before recording their second. It can be found on the 1994 compilation, Live at the BBC, selected by, and remastered under the supervision of, George Martin.
Like a lot of the previously unreleased BBC songs, it's fun but not particularly revelatory, notable mainly for a really enthusiastic but rough lead guitar by George Harrison. Lennon takes the lead vocal, and there aren't any harmony vocals

Great Tent

Comments about Sportz SUV Tent:
I used the tent for the first time this past weekend and thought it was great!! My wife even enjoyed camping and I wasn't sure that was possible. I heard from reviews that people said that it was hard to set up, but me and my friend set it up for the first time in the dark and only took us 10 minutes, very simple. They even have a video that shows you how to set it up, I would advise watching it first if you are unsure. Others said that it wouldnt fit back in the bag that it comes with, but again, I had no problem with it at all. The only cons were the tent pegs that came with it. They had no point at the end and bent everytime you hammered them in. I went to REI and bought some titanium tent pegs and problem was solved. The only other con was that when using the zippers, they sometimes catch the overflap fabric. Not sure how to fix it yet, but not a big concern. The tent is big and very roomy. I'm 6'5" and could walk around the tent with no problem. I have a 2004 Toyota 4Runner and the fit was perfect. Great tent, cant wait to use it again!

So are you ready to enter into the Sun?
We may divide the internals of the Sun into following major parts:
• Corona
• Chromosphere
• Photosphere
• Solar Envelope
• The Core
Corona is the outermost part of the sun & you may see it when Full Solar Eclipses occur. The temperature of corona is about 2.7million°C, which is hot enough to emit ultravoilet and X-rays. The corona extends millions of kilometers into space above the photosphere and is very hot- millions of degree celcius.
In a solar eclipse, a red circle around the outside of the Sun can be seen sometime. This is the chromosphere. The chromosphere is made up of the gases that extend away from the photosphere.Chromosphere is of red color, caused by the abundance of hydrogen. It has a greater (than Photosphere) temperature of about 10000°C. The Chromosphere merges into Corona & Photosphere.
The photosphere is the zone from where the sunlight we see is emitted. The photosphere is a layer of low pressure gasses surrounding the envelope. It is 400 km thick, with a temperature of 4500°C to 6000°C.
The Core:
The innermost layer of the sun is the core with a density of 160g/cm³ (10 times that of lead). The core might be expected to be solid. However, the core's temperature of 15 million°C keeps it in a gaseous state. In the core, fusion reactions produce energy in the form of γ rays and neutrinos.
From the photosphere of the sun to the chromosphere and to the Corona , the temperature increases, while the same procedure follows up from the photosphere to the core of the sun (I mean temperature increases). Thus you may say in other words that the Photosphere is the COOLEST PLACE in the sun.
Spots in Sun? — SunSpots
The sun has enormous organized magnetic fields that reach from pole to pole. Loops of the magnetic field oppose convection in the convective envelope and stop the flow of energy to the surface. This results in cool spots (i.e. SUNSPOTS) at the surface which produce less light than the warmer part.
Sunspots are dark spots on the photosphere, typically with the same diameter as the Earth.
Sunspots have cooler temperatures than the photosphere. So our thoughts again changes here, that photosphere is the coolest part on the Sun— Now it is the sunspots.
The center of a spot is called the umbra, looks dark gray if heavily filtered & is only 4200°C (as compared to the photosphere at 6000°C).
Penumbra is the portion around the umbra, which looks lighter gray (if filtered).
Sunspots come in cycles, increasing sharply (in numbers) & then decreasing sharply. The period of this solar cycle is about eleven years. The largest spot ever measured (APRIL 1974) covered 18130 million km² i.e., 0.7% of the Sun's visible surface. The life periods of these spots also vary—from a few hours to many weeks.
Polar Auroras
It is an effect of sunlight.
Polar Auroras are two auroras, the Aurora Borealis or Nothern Lights and the Aurora Australis or Southern Lights. These are lights that sweep across the sky in waves or streamers or folds. They are very often multi-colored and provide one of the finest spectacles in nature. They occur in Arctic and the Antarctic regions respectively. But the Northern lights can be seen as far south as New Orleans in America and the Southern lights as far north as Australia.

If we are to believe half a century of daytime TV commercials, housekeeping is war — a perpetual battle against the sneaky soldiers of nature. For decades, we've armed ourselves with cleaning products to slay bacteria and scrape away fungus. As our household organisms move up the evolutionary ladder, acquiring wings and faces, we hire mercenaries to drive them out.
Two recent developments, however, suggest a detente between nature and domestic culture.
This month, Pantone, a company best known for its color-matching system, announced that the color of the year for 2013 is emerald green. Never before, in 14 years of these selections, has a true green been named, possibly because it is also the color of mold, lobster liver and Brussels sprouts.
Pantone was not put off. "No other color conveys regeneration more," the company's news release noted.
It seems that as we become more environmentally considerate, we're ready to ignore the ick factor and welcome green into our homes.
The idea that nature might be an honored houseguest and not just something that slithers in under the refrigerator is also behind "Bio Design: Nature, Science, Creativity," a book published last month by the Museum of Modern Art.
Written by William Myers, a New York-based writer and teacher, "Bio Design" focuses on the growing movement to integrate organic processes in the creation of buildings and household objects so that resources are conserved and waste is limited.
Some astonishing visual effects are produced as well. The book's 73 projects, culled from laboratories and design studios around the world, show, for example, how living trees can be coaxed into becoming houses and bridges; how lamps can be powered by firefly luminescence; how human DNA can change the color of petunias; and how concrete can heal itself when damaged, like skin.
Myers, a New York-based writer, said his interest in the redemptive power of small, creepy things started years ago when he began making his own bread and beer, and developed a familiarity with yeast.
We have been conditioned to fear micro-organisms, he said, "but in fact they can be useful and have been for millenniums, if you think about baking and brewing."
Designers habitually copy nature. The examples pile up faster than beetle species and include things like Antonio Gaudi's soaring architecture, William Morris' floral wallpaper and George Nakashima's rough wood tables.
But bio design is not about merely taking cues from organic structures and operations. It is about harnessing the machinery of the natural world to perform as nature does: storing and converting energy, producing oxygen, neutralizing poisons and disposing wastes in life-sustaining ways.
Consider Bacterioptica, a chandelier designed by Petia Morozov, of Montclair, N.J., with petri dishes loaded with bacterial cultures nesting in a tangle of fiber optics. The pattern and color of the blooming bacteria changes the quality of the light.
Or Moss Table, a collaboration between the scientists Carlos Peralta and Alex Driver of Britain and Paolo Bombelli of Italy, which exploits the small electrical current produced when certain bacteria consume organic compounds released by moss during photosynthesis. Using carbon fiber to absorb the charge, the scientists produced enough electricity with their table to power an attached lamp.
Then there is Growth Pattern, a series of ornamental tiles designed by the Seattle-based artist Allison Kudla, which spontaneously change their pattern because they are made of cut tobacco leaves laid out in a grid of square petri dishes. Steeped in a solution that behaves like a hormone, the cut leaves put out new growth.
Still, bio designers must grapple with the Frankenstein factor: a concern that their experiments will unleash some unmanageable new horror.
Mitchell Joachim, who co-founded the architecture and design studio Terreform One in Brooklyn in 2006, and runs a bio lab within its precincts, says he is paid regular visits by representatives from Homeland Security and the FBI.
"They just come by to see what a healthy, working community-based lab looks like, as opposed to a terrorist cell," Joachim said.

In 1991, an Italian publisher commissioned author G. Bruce Boyer to write introductions to a set of oversized paperbound collections of graphics, advertisements and articles from Apparel Arts magazine, the 1930s era menswear trade magazine that eventually morphed into Gentleman's Quarterly. 1500 copies were printed and I searched for one of them for years.
I found a set in Germany last year and got as far as paying for it only to be told the bookstore had sold it out from under me. But then RJ pointed me to another in Italy a few months ago and, after a two month wait for the Italian postal service, it finally arrived.
The text is in Italian which is a challenge for me, but the set contains dozens of graphics that I had not seen before and the original accompanying text is in English. And for my efforts I can better understand what the best dressed men of the time were wearing in an era when there were textile mills aplenty and anything was possible.
No-one in this day and age is likely to wear a gray flannel odd jacket to a warm weather resort as is suggested in the photo immediately above, but a similar effect can be achieved with a lightweight bell hopsack, for example. The navy polo, fawn trousers and red espadrilles are timeless. Similarly, we might not wear the brown gabardine of the photo above it in summer today unless we lived in San Francisco, but the combination shown is still a good one for spring and warm fall.
The search took years, but it was worth it.

New England tight end Rob Gronkowski (Jared Wickerham / Getty Images) |
Rob Gronkowski will miss the rest of the New England Patriots' playoff run after breaking his left arm Sunday for the second time this season.
At least that's what is being reported by pretty much everyone, including the Associated Press, which cites anonymous sources. Even the Patriots have a blog post on the subject on their website, saying Gronkowski will "reportedly" undergo surgery on his arm for the second time this season, crediting Mike Giardi of Comcast SportsNet New England "and other media reports" as the sources.
But there's been no official word from the team as of yet. Maybe that's because Coach Bill Belichick doesn't seem to have come to terms with losing one of his prized tight ends just weeks after getting him back from the first injury.
During a conference call with the members of the media Monday, Belichick said he had nothing to add to his comments following Sunday's game, a 41-28 victory over the Houston Texans in the AFC divisional round of the playoffs. At that time, he said he wasn't sure if Gronkowski had broken his arm.
It's easy to understand why Belichick would have trouble letting go of a player who has been named to the Pro Bowl the past two years, had 55 catches for 790 yards and 11 touchdowns in 11 games during the regular season and had 17 receptions for 258 yards and three touchdowns during last year's playoff run to the Super Bowl.
Still, the team went 4-1 when he missed five games with the original arm injury before returning for the final game of the regular season two weeks ago. New England, the No. 2 seed in the AFC, had a bye last week.
And the Patriots did just fine after Gronkowski left the Houston game, with quarterback Tom Brady completing 25 of 40 passes for 344 yards and three touchdowns.
With the team now having to turn its focus to the Baltimore Ravens and the AFC championship game, it's probably time Belichick faces reality, and that's life without Gronkowski.

Individual freedom ends when your freedom infringes on that of others. Brain injuries are devastating to the individual... and to society as a whole. Unless they're very wealthy, most people with brain injuries depend on society for their very survival. Medical and rehab costs well into 6 figures, and commonly continuing support for a lifetime.
Society has a responsibility, if not to protect the cyclist, at least to protect itself. Slogans are just mindless chants.
Individual freedom is an ideal goal, but it has to be measured against whether there's "colateral damage."
Part of the problem starts with The Globe's headline on the cover of the G--The Helmet DEBATE. There is no "debate" about it. Helmets do two things. 1.) A helmet can save your life (as it did my husband's) if you are in an accident. 2) Helmets also saves me and you from supporting others who end up with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and cannot afford lifelong care due to the stupid choice of not wearing one.
If you are Donald Trump, Bill, Gates, or Mitt Romney and have the money to care for yourself with a TBI that could leave you a vegetable for life, then, by all means, go without a helmet and risk it. If you're not, then slap a helmet on your head and do yourself and society a service. Helmets go far beyond an individual's right to choose, and right into major, real costs to society as a whole.
And as for parents who let their kids ride without helmets after age 12 as a "right of passage" (yes, have heard that many times)--don't get me started....
Don't make me wear a helmet if I don't want to do it. Bicycling is a very safe activity, safer than walking. Eight times as many more people suffer head injuries from other people hitting them, whether through violent assaults, playing a sport or with another car. Over twice as many people suffer head injuries while walking. England has fewer bike related head injuries per capita despite much lower helmet use than in the U.S. These are all statistics from the NIH or organizations promoting bicycle safety.
I have three bicycles - road, mountain and street cruiser. I always wear a helmet when I'm on the road bike, but only when I'm agressively riding the mountain bike, and never on the cruiser. Its just common sense - the difference in the speed, the amount of miles covered, and how aggressively I'm riding that dictates what I do.
Mandatory bicycle helmet laws for kids are basically law that mandates fewer kids riding bikes, period. I taught my kids to ride a bike, and they were delighted. My wife put helmets on them and told them they had to wear them. They didn't, they just didn't ride their bikes.
There will ALWAYS be compelling statistics that predict fewer head injuries if helmets were mandatory. However the statistics indicate far greater reductions would be available by enforcing a helmet rule for pedestrians, basketball or anyone riding in a car. Go after them and leave me alone.
I call this helmet fascism, and it's the kind of behavior that leads people to joining the Tea Party. The need to force others to wear helmets is akin to the Puritan behavior that forced women to wear the same button-down clothing. It has nothing to do with safety or rational thought, and everything to do with forcing others to be like you. Helmets are useful in only a very small fraction of bike accidents. In reality, helmet fascism reflects avoidance behavior, it's a way to deflect us from the *real* safety issues of making Massachusetts streets safer for bicyclists. In their feeling of impotence at being able to do anything for really improving bike safety, helmet fascists attempt to turn our attention away from the real issues and instead to partake in group navel-gazing. Europeans, who are much more successful at effecting real community change, see through this infantile deflecting of attention away from the real issues of bike safety.
If you do not want to wear a helmet, fine. As long as you have insurance to pay for any medical bills incurred by not having one. I mean, why should the rest of us have to pay for injuries sustained because you chose not to wear one. Further, you should not be allowed to sue over head injuries if you fail to wear a hemet. I know I was saved from a fractured skull because I was wearing a helmet when I crashed my bike. Tossed right over the handlebars like a rocket and head first onto the pavement.
I would like to add:
Not wearing a helmet is a statement about personal responsibility. If you don't want to wear a helmet, so be it. However, that means ONLY YOU bear the responsibility for this act. That means the cost of any injuries incurred and any long term care that may result is borne by you. Not the government, and not the insurance companies. In both cases the costs of your injuries should not be born by citizens or by insurance clients in the form of highrer premiums.
Seems that there is room for both. Keep encouraging helmet wear for people AND start building a safer and complete bicycle traffic infrastructure. The road surfaces, the hills, the traffic all conspire to make riding bikes in Boston unpredictable enough to make claims of self responsiblity laughable. On the other hand, we all have a responsibility to protect ourselves. These helmets are cheap enough to acquire and effective enough to warrant wearing. Perhaps one day smooth engineered bike paths will take a rider from suburb to downtown safely.

Design should solve real and existing problems. This is what Min Kyu Choi does. His starting point – the things in front of him, for example, the UK three pin plug that caused a scratch on his laptop. The result is the award winning first true redesign of the plug since its post World War Two creation. Here is a solution so simple and so elegant that it is set to displace every plug that came before it.
To be able to question why an item exists, if it should be improved, whether this improvement is viable and then creating the solution is what makes Min Kyu Choi different. Doing all of this whilst humbly maintaining this is simply his job; this is what makes Min Kyu Choi special.

Kids are always doing and saying something that makes us laugh. Sometimes they do it to share their joy with us, and sometimes it's unintentional because they are figuring out the way the world works, and putting things together (that we may not have thought belonged together).
Sometimes in the moment, we crack up. I'm guilty of it myself.
But what happens when we do?
Laughing at children sends a message
Our reaction, as unintentional as it can be, still has it's effect. You might be giggling because "you love how cute they are" but kids are hearing: "you are so incorrect, it's funny".
How would it feel if we were in a board meeting of a multinational corporation during the first week of work, and said something that made all of the big wigs laugh in a "wow, you really don't know anything" and "it's so ridiculous what you're saying:" kind of way?
Would we feel confused? Embarrassed? Would it help us, or prevent us from feeling confident?
Kids are just as sensitive to our reactions, as we are to other adult's reactions. Maybe adults laughed at us when we were children too? What do we remember about how that felt?
Laughing at children's remarks or actions dismisses their sincerity.
They may say something really awkward like "This squash looks like your head papa!" or they may have a vivid observation "The fan goed roundy and roundy and throwed wind on us!"
Whatever kids may say, usually they mean it with utmost seriousness. They are describing something they see, or understand. When we laugh at their knowledge or use of words, we are laughing at who they are. They receive the message that what they do and say is silly, and doesn't have real value.
Children are not entertainment
Often we laugh at children when we are in an adult social setting. We relate with other adults by watching their reactions, or just want other adults to enjoy how much being with kids makes us laugh. Is this at the expense of the children?
I frequently notice how when adults laugh after a child does something "funny", they look at other adults to see their reaction. This is very interesting. Is there some type of social evaluation going on?
Using children as a way to make our guests or family members laugh is belittling to our kids existence. It is disrespectful. Would we put grandma on display to make our friends laugh? or a person with Tourettes? How much do our kids have control over their "funniness?"
Don't even get me started on all the things we do things to our kids to make ourselves laugh…
(need I say more?)
Laughing is fun when everyone is in on the joke
When we are laughing and joking about what kids do, do they understand why we are laughing?
If they are staring at us questioningly, and our reaction doesn't seem to make sense to them, we are creating a disconnect in our relationship with them. This may be great bonding time for adults, but how does this help us bond with our children?
How to respond when something "silly" is said
I love it when kids give me the opportunity to practice a mindful response. I call it mindful, because I try to be intentional (not impulsive) in how I wish to respond.
- Stick to the facts of the observation without the need to correct. — "Does that remind you of papa's head because he lost all of his hair?"
- It's ok to provide more information, so everyone's on the same page — "I wonder if it might hurt papa's feelings to hear that, because he was sad when he lost his hair, and he might not want to be reminded about it".
(FYI: I'm using this example because I used to say that when I was little. At the grocery store. To my dad! Now that we're adults, he brings it up regularly and cracks up about it, "remember when you used to point at the melon and make fun of your poor old papa?" Of course, my original observation was innocent of mockery.)
- Repeat what your child is noticing, and ask them more about it– "That's true. The fan does blow air on us, what else did you notice about the fan?"
- If you really did laugh (sometimes it just comes out), explain what you found so funny about it and stay mindful about your child's feelings. — "I laughed when you said that, because the way you described how the fan works sounded so different to me."
Find ways to share joy instead
Now let's talk about laughing with our kids! How different does this feel?
Our kids are laughing with us, and they understand what's funny. Usually, it is something outside of ourselves, like a funny story, or a funny picture. Sometimes it is sharing joy about something funny that we, the adults, did (self directed humor relays the message that making mistakes is ok)… "d'oh! I dropped my toast again! I have butterfingers today!"
Sharing joy means staying connected with our children, and sharing the same perspective of an experience. Aka: We are in the same boat!
This always feels good to both parties. Now just remember to not share joy at the expense of someone else who isn't in on it.
A quick word about babies
In my opinion, I notice that babies get laughed at the most. They drool and babble and are learning coordination.. which is so uninhibited and free in physical actions! Yes, lots of funny material there. But babies are also people. Yes, whole people. They are in tune with our messages and are sensitive to them. Maybe we feel that a little laughter at their expense doesn't hurt. Is this true? I haven't found any direct studies yet, so I couldn't say "officially". I just know it feels "off" in my heart.
If we are planning on treating our whole growing humans with respect, why not start right away? If it's disrespectful to laugh at what kids do, or adults do, or elders do– at their expense, why should it be ok to laugh at babies?
Respond to babies in the same respectful way. When they spit, say "I notice you spit. I wonder if you're done eating that food?". When they burble, say "I hear you saying something. You are looking at the cup, are you saying "cup?" and point to the cup.
When grandmas and grandpas and aunts and uncles and strangers are laughing at baby and you have learned to take your baby seriously (because you respect your baby so much), you can narrate to the baby, "Everyone is excited to have you here and watch you grow." Validate the babies perspective, and stay an active part of it. Emphasize with the experience and make sure everyone is on the same page.
Please take children seriously. Even if they seem funny to you. To them, they may be sharing something thoughtful and genuine. Let them know you love them by treating them with respect and dignity. This will help them become confident and secure adults. And maybe when you're saying something silly in your later years, they will show you the same respect.
Thanks for reading! I'd love to hear what you think

NITED LABOR ACTION *GAKf/> r574^ s5® THE CITIZENS ALLIANCE TWO TWENTY-FIVE SOUTH THIRD STREET Vol. I No. 2 Minneapolis, Minnesota, Monday, July 2, 1934 Price one cent MASS DEMONSTRATION OF UNIONS FRIDAY JULY 6, BRIDGE SQUARE TO AUDITORIUM The Sharp Shooter .1 Gilford reports in his last issue that he is giving the breweries free advertising space. We suppose that he can afford to do this if we can assume that the Citizen's Alliance is paying for the space in his columns. -o NEWS Bill Brown, by his own confession, the best looking man in the labor movement, is reported to be angling for the job of organizer of the Woman's Auxiliary. " " ~"'o *■ LEGAL AID DEPARTMENT Dear Mr. Summons :— Can you tell me the name of the prominent city official who will resign in a short time? —Anxious Taxpayer Anxious Taxpayer:— Yes. —I. Summons -O Below we reproduce the picture of Sam Levy. This was taken immediately after Governor Olson ruled on paragraph 8. Great credit must be given to our photo engraving department for reproducing every detail of expression on Levy's face. Continued on page 4 Some Old Grievances Many New Ones—Which Demand Settlement That the Trade Unions have a real base for united action at the present time is indicated by statements of spokesmen from the various organizations represented in Thursday's conference. The Laundry and Dry Cleaners announced that they have been turned down coldly by the employers on the question of wages and other demands and said they await the strike call, ot.Local -574r The Ice Wagon Drivers likewise indicated that the matter of wages could be settled at the same time. FLASH Nicollet Avenue to be roped off! Demonstrators assembling on Bridge Square shall watch placards on telephone poles to determine where their organization will form for the march. Handbills carry complete plan. All workers, employed and unemployed, should participate. The Retail Clerks Union has been trying to negotiate a wage raise for the miserably low paid workers in the retail shops. An arrogant refusal to deal with the union has been the only answer. United action by the unions will change the tune of the bosses in this industry also. The Street Railway workers have just signed an agreement with the Twin City Rapid Transit Co. which leaves a large part of these workers under the domination of a Company Union. This means disaster for the Street Car Union unless quickly corrected. An open fight is the only way. Continued on page 4 Employers Challenge All Organized Labor by Violating Agreement with Local 574 Farm Holiday Joins Hands Withiabor Deeply aroused by the refusal of the employers to arbitrate wages with Local 574, the conference of delegates from all Minneapolis unions, the St. Paul Transportation unions, and the Farm Holiday Association voted unanimously, to hold a mass demonstration on Friday, July 6th, in protest against the employer's action. The demonstrators will gather on Bridge Square at 6:30 P. M. Friday and will march up Nicollet Avenue to the Auditorium where a gigantic mass meeting will be held.' Although the bosses have trained their guns upon Local 574, it is plainly evident that they are attempting to deal a crushing blow to all labor organizations. As the focal point in the May strike, which was splendidly supported by all unions, Local 574 has become the symbol of defeat to the bosses and a beacon of hope to all 'labor, organized and unorganized. As a result of the victorious May strike, thousands of workers have found a new freedom; they have tasted of the benefits of organization and the sensation has been a pleasant one; they see a vision of security, of a decent living, looming on a horizon which has heretofore been dark and hopeless. To gain this goal, they were forced to meet the hirelings of the bosses in what amounted to open warfare. They did so and came off victoriously 1 What does this mean? It means that every worker in Minneapolis, every worker in the United States, is looking toward organized labor with an entirely new perspective. Workers everywhere are flocking into the ranks of organized labor Continued on page 4 a«.JUN 20 1935 g. pua £ _^..«,

Data presented in this webinar illustrates the value of live cell analysis at the single-cell level to identify differences in expression levels across populations of cells. The cells remain intact for downstream analysis. Our experts also discuss the use of SmartFlare RNA detection probes for the direct quantification of circulating miRNAs with rapid processing of blood plasma/serum, which is done without the use of enzymes. Using circulating miRNAs with established roles in cancer and quality control, we can accurately detect these miRNAs in plasma using a microplate fluorometer within an hour after plasma preparation.

Library preparation methods continue to be challenged by the requirement for faster and more efficient protocols, using lower input amounts. In this online seminar, recorded Feb. 7, 2013, experts discuss new approaches to tackle these challenges, particularly for bacterial and exome sequencing.

There can be a bit of a chasm between dry lab work and wet lab work. But NHLBI's Andrew Johnson aims to close that gap. "A lot of things that I attempt in terms of projects try to bridge those barriers between the dry lab, computational side of things and wet lab experiments that are two different worlds," he says.
Currently, Johnson's work focuses on developing tools. During the early days of genome-wide association studies, he noticed that it was difficult for researchers to compare results generated across various array platforms. In conjunction with scientists at the Broad Institute, he developed a tool called SNAP to do just that. "[It] was pretty successful in terms of allowing people to rapidly query for proxy markers, but also just to do basic annotation of SNPs, like chromosome position, gene, and also to do plotting for regional genetic association plots," he says.

High-resolution transcriptome maps reveal strain-specific regulatory features of multiple Campylobacter jejuni isolates Dugar, Herbig, et al. PLOS Genetics
The University of Würzburg's Cynthia Sharma and colleagues undertook a transcriptomics-based analysis of the gastroenteritis-causing bacterial species Campylobacter jejuni. The team used its so-called differential RNA sequencing strategy to sequence and compare the transcriptomes of four C. jejuni isolates (three from humans and one from a chicken), applying a new method to automatically annotate transcription start sites in each. "Overall," they write, "our study provides new insights into strain-specific transcriptome organization and [small RNAs], and reveals genes that could modulate phenotypic variation among strains despite high conservation at the DNA level."
Mosaic genome structure of the barley powdery mildew pathogen and conservation of transcriptional programs in divergent hosts Hacquard, Kracher, et al. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
The barley powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei) pathogen genome is comprised of chunks of sequence that are particularly rich or replete in polymorphisms, according to a study by researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research. The team sequenced the genomes of two Bgh isolates from Europe, comparing each to the barley powdery mildew reference genome. The newly sequenced isolates each contained distinct combinations of sequence blocks with high or low SNP concentrations — isolate-specific mosaic genomes that point to "exceptionally large standing genetic variation in the Bgh population," study authors say. Meanwhile, their transcriptome sequencing experiments offered a look at genes used by Bgh during attempted infiltration of barley or immunocompromised Arabidopsis.

A style essential, these hoop earrings are crafted in 14k white gold with a round design finished with a latch closure.
Earring Information
Stock number: | 21382 |
14k White Gold |
Backing: | Latch backing |
Width: | 1/16 inch |
Diameter: | 5/8 inch |
Yes |
The only reason these earring don't get an exceptional rating is because of the latching mechanism in the back. The wire settles into a notch to hold it in place. Unfortunately, the notch isn't snug and it makes me constantly worry and check my ears to see if I've lost one. If these were more valuable...I'd be petrified of losing one!
If you like simple jewelry, this is a good piece to have at a great price. The only thing is that I hope the clip is a bit sturdy.The experience with bluenile continues to be very positive. I had some issue with the original pair shipped. Bluenile handled it with such a high standard, that this experience convinced me that this will be my jewelry for any future purchase.
Great earrings. Perfect size for small ears.
Beautiful earrings, with a pleasant, heavy feel in the hand -- good quality.
My wife loves them, just the right size.
I bought these earrings for myself and I'm very happy with them. They were as described and I wear them every single day. They are the perfect size and go with everything whether sporty or dressy. I've had them for some time and they still look brand new.

FrizzyComb Attachment ProblemThis is a great travel dryer. It is powerful and compact, BUT it has an oval-shaped opening, which creates a problem if you need a comb attachment. It comes with a concentrator attachment, but if you need a comb attachment, you are out of luck. I bought it with the thought that I could use a "universal" comb attachment. Later, I discovered that "universal" attachments work only with round openings. Now I need to buy another travel dryer.posted May 8, 2008Link to this post
