Mass in Motion MV - 3rd year funding
Printer-Friendly Version
Martha's Vineyard is among 52 cities, towns, and counties throughout the Commonwealth that are part of the MA Department of Public Health's Mass in Motion Municipal Wellness and Leadership Program. This program is funded by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. The grant provides the county with $60,000 a year for the third year now to create community change promoting healthy, active living. The grant is primarily focused on kids and people in low income category.
The objective of Mass in Motion – MV is to increase opportunities for Island residents to eat better and move more in the places they live, learn, work, and play. Mass in Motion-MV is working locally to implement Safe Routes, Complete Streets, Healthy Dining, Healthy Island School Foods as well as improved WIC/SNAP access to farms and markets, initiatives that will make the healthy choice the easy choice for Island residents (see more details below).
Some of the Mass in Motion-MV initiatives include promoting more biking and walking to school each day, creating safe intersections for crossing, providing access and affordability of produce and locally-grown food to school lunch programs, increasing farm-to-school initiatives, advertising Harvest of the Month, and assisting low-income citizens. Finally, Mass in Motion-MV works with restaurants to ensure healthy options on their menus with focus on kids options.
These are the accomplishments of the grant so far and some more goals of Mass in Motion - MV:
Healthy Foods in Schools
Completed 10 months of Harvest of the Month promotion in all 7 schools on island.
Materials archived for 2013-2014 school year for funding of promotional campaign to parents and kids inside and outside school.
3 our of 7 Wellness Committees have completed their policies with assistance from MiM-MV reps.
All 7 school on MV participate
New Snack policies and curriculum in progress
Affordability of Healthy Foods

Elana Metter said that volunteering is the perfect way to become part of a community and to make improvements to it.
Metter, 31, has been volunteering with the Annex Shul since 2007, when she decided that she ensure that the shul had a Shabbat dinner every week. With only one paid employee, spiritual leader Yacov Fruchter, Metter said you know your contribution is necessary. That's one of the things that makes volunteering at the Annex Shul special for her.
"If you're given something to do and you don't do it, it doesn't get done," Metter said. "Part of what makes it such a special place is because of the investment of the community."
She added that the Annex Shul is much different than the synagogue she attended while growing up because everything was done for her there. At the Annex Shul, even being involved in setting up chairs is important because then you think about acoustics and how the service looks, she said.
Her role as a volunteer has changed over the years; now she is a member of the Annex Shul advisory board. She's also involved in developing a family education program, which was inspired by a conference she attended in April 2010. She said that making changes to an organization is as easy as having an idea.
"If there's something you want to change, you kind of have to go for it," Metter said.
She added that what she loves about the Annex Shul is the fact that it's for young people, and it's not like their parents' shuls. She said what makes the Annex Shul what it is, is that you can come as you are and shape what the shul becomes. At the Annex Shul, she said it doesn't matter what you wear or how often you come; people there are always happy to see you. She is particularly looking forward to the High Holiday services coming up.
"I grew up in a fairly big-box shul, but at Annex it's the most meaningful High Holidays that I've ever experienced," Metter said.
Metter has also been a volunteer in several political campaigns and for Mount Sinai Hospital. She was nominated for a UJA Federation of Greater Toronto's Top 20 Under 40 Award, given to volunteers in organizations that serve young professionals.
"I thought it was a huge honour," Metter said. "It was very touching that they thought of me."
She said that at the Annex Shul she gets to bring people of all different levels of Jewish observance together, and she also tries to bring together the community outside of the shul. Metter wants to challenge peoples' perceptions about members of the Jewish community with different beliefs than their own.
One of the ways she has tried to build bridges within the Jewish community is through a reading group that she runs with a haredi rebbetzin. The group includes 35 women, ranging from haredi Jews to a young woman who once debated whether to attend synagogue on Yom Kippur. Metter said she enjoys hearing all of the women's different reactions and perspectives on the book they're reading.
"We have more in common than we have different," she said. "I wanted to make our community a little bit stronger by bringing together a spectrum of women and helping them to examine why they believe what they believe."
She added that while creating unity and volunteering in the community are important to her, Israel is also one of her passions. She wants all members of the Jewish community to feel connected to Israel.
"If you want the Jewish community to be here in the future, we need active volunteers," Metter said. "It's also important that we all feel like we're a part of Israel, not just a part of whatever denomination we belong to."
Metter is currently in Israel, on a trip organized by the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) to introduce Canadian members of Parliament to Israel. She's one of the young Jewish leaders showing Canadian politicians Israel. They will experience Shabbat at the Western Wall and wine tasting in the Galilee, and they will get to see Israeli technological innovations, including Project Better Place, which is building a network of electric cars. Metter has wanted to be involved in a trip like this since she was asked two years ago, but this was the first time she was able to go.
"I've always been passionate about Israel and interested in politics," Metter said. "This is a way to advocate for Israel in a real way that can make a difference. I can show the [Canadian] leaders of the country, who are the people that dictate the laws, what Israel's really about and create a real connection for them."
Metter added that volunteering in the Jewish community has taught her that when you do things for yourself, you are able to take ownership of the community you belong to. She said that the Annex Shul, in particular, taught her that lesson well.
"You can't just wait for other people to do things," she said. "Volunteering is about taking the future of your community into your own hands."

Researchers believe they have discovered why treatment of advanced prostate cancer so often fails after months or even years of what seems like success. The cancer cells, they found, respond to treatment by generating extra copies of a gene that helps fight off the therapy's destructive effects on the tumor.
The basic treatment for advanced prostate cancer is androgen deprivation, a dramatic reduction in the male hormones that stimulate tumor growth. A team of researchers from Finland and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), a component of National Institutes of Health (NIH), found that after this treatment, tumor cells often exhibited multiple copies of the gene encoding the androgen receptor (AR), which binds the hormone to the cell. Tumors taken from the same patients before treatment contained only the usual single copy of the gene, they announced today in the April issue of Nature Genetics.
The scientists suggest that the AR gene is amplified during androgen deprivation therapy because additional copies of the gene help tumor cells soak up what little hormone is available, and so keep growing even when androgen concentrations are low. Overexpression of amplified genes often accompanies acquired resistance to cancer therapies in vitro, but this is the first time the mechanism has been implicated in tumor progression in patients undergoing treatment.
"These findings tell us that some recurrent prostate cancers are highly dependent on low levels of androgen," said Tapio Visakorpi, M.D., Ph.D., the paper's lead author and NIH visiting scientist who conducted the study. "We may need to look more carefully at whether complete androgen blockage is helpful for some people with prostate cancer."
Androgens, which include the hormone testosterone, produce the secondary sex characteristics of males. The testes secrete about 95 percent of the body's androgens, while the adrenal gland generates the rest.
Testicular androgens, in particular, play an important role in some cancers of the prostate, the small male gland near the bladder that helps liquify semen. Because many prostate cancers cannot be removed surgically, doctors often advise their patients to undergo hormone therapy or removal of the testes to block testicular androgens from the tumor. While this treatment does not cure the disease, a recent study showed it does produce temporary and at least partial remission in up to 80 percent of newly diagnosed patients.
But once treatment fails in a few months or years, long-term patient survival is poor. Indeed, over 32,000 American men die each year from prostate cancer, making it the second-leading cause of cancer death in males.
These grim statistics have sparked a longstanding debate about whether total androgen shut down, including adrenal androgens, would hold the cancer in check longer. Clinical trials have suggested some survival benefits. But they are associated with higher treatment costs and increased side effects.
Today's findings offer compelling new evidence to the debate. Dr. Visakorpi and his colleagues at Tampere University Hospital found that the androgen receptor (AR) gene was overproduced, or amplified, in several recurrent human prostate cancers. Androgen receptors are proteins that bind androgen and help the hormone signal the DNA to produce specific proteins.
The group found that the AR gene was amplified in seven of 23 recurrent tumor samples. Amplification rates varied, ranging from 3.8 to 21.5 gene copies per cell. In one case, 40 AR copies were detected in a tumor cell. Normally, cells have just one copy of the AR gene.
The results are particularly striking, Dr. Visakorpi said, because he and his coworkers found that the AR gene was not amplified in tumor samples taken from these same patients prior to treatment. "It may be that just as a fisherman has a greater chance of catching a fish if he casts more than one line, androgen-dependent cancer cells increase their chances of binding androgen by generating more receptors," explained Dr. Visakorpi.
Dr. Visakorpi said total androgen blockage might not be helpful for all prostate cancer patients. But DNA screening tests, he suggested, could be used to target those who amplify the AR gene and so might benefit from total androgen blockage.
Today's results also provide an excellent case study of how genome science is helping to offer new insights into old clinical problems. The researchers began screening the DNA from recurrent prostate cancer samples, hoping to identify an unusual molecular event linked to the tumor. They soon found increased gene activity on the long arm of chromosome X. Based on previous genome studies, the researchers knew the AR gene was located on this region of the chromosome and decided to focus their attention there. By using a fluorescently labelled AR gene probe, the scientists were able to generate today's results in a matter of months.
"The most important point is we would have never looked for AR gene amplification unless we already knew that the gene was there," said Olli-P. Kallioniemi, M.D., Ph.D., of Tampere University Hospital and one of the paper's authors. "I don't know if we could have done it otherwise. It would have taken years even to find the AR gene."
Jeffrey Trent, Ph.D., director of NHGRI's Division of Intramural Research, agreed with Dr. Kallioniemi, adding that today's findings also have significance for the study of other human cancers. "This work offers an exciting glimpse into the molecular basis of human cancer," he said. "By investigating AR amplification further, we can begin to pose even more fundamental questions about the role of gene amplification in the cancer process."
The National Human Genome Research Institute is a component of the National Institutes of Health, which is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Mergers and acquisitions, growing precast construction, and a slew of housing and infra projects bode well for the cement industry.
A spate of mergers and acquisitions has marked the Indian cement industry in the past couple of years. News reports peg the volume of capacity that has changed hands at 47 million tonne, valued at over Rs 36,000 crore.
Lafarge and Holcim have merged. Heidelberg Cement has bought a stake in Italcementi. UltraTech bagged Jaypee´s 5 million tonne capacity in Madhya Pradesh. Birla Corp bought over the 5 million tonne a year (mtpa) capacity Reliance Cement.
The big question: Should cement end-users take an interest in these mergers and acquisitions (M&As)? And, the answer is ´yes´.
How M&As impact cement end-users
Consolidation activity impacts end-users of cement by usually enhancing the merged company´s potential to invest in performance and process improvements and quality control, which in turn impacts product quality.
Performance measured in terms of improved operating parameters like power and fuel consumption is predominantly a key industry objective - especially in a difficult, low-price environment - for contributing to company profits. But process improvements and quality control have a major impact on end-users.
¨Both process investments (in the plant) and investments in testing methodology help check the consistency of cement quality, which is essential to make high-performance concrete with the required workability, compressive strength and durability,¨ says Anil Kumar Pillai, Deputy General Manager, Technical Services, The Ramco Cements. Manufacturers who have made investments in R&D are capable of taking on requests for customised concrete mixes, which may be mandated for projects in special areas (marine area or polluted environments), projects needing to be completed very fast and projects for special uses, according to Pillai. Investments in R&D also spur new product development. The properties of cement influence the properties of the concrete mix. For instance, blended cements Ramco Supergrade and Ramco Supersteel, products of The Ramco Cements, are widely accepted for being environment-friendly and enhancing the longevity of concrete structures, as reflected through the durability test (RCPT) conducted regularly at the Ramco Research and Development Centre. And, Ramco Superfast is rapid hardening cement as per IS 8041, hence well suited for precast applications and block casting units. In Bengaluru, Brigade is using precast elements cast from Ramco Superfast cement for its Brigade Orchids residential project.
Precast in housing vs commercial construction
Precast technology offers plenty of scope for cement application. Mixing both cement and fly-ash in concrete furthers the concept of green buildings. So far, precast has become popular for affordable housing, where it helps developers save time and cost. ¨Precast mass housing construction costs less than conventional methods by about 5-10 per cent, if the factory is within the project site,¨ says Ujwal Shetty, Chief General Manager, BCC Infrastructures, which is constructing 40 towers spanning 55 lakh sq ft built-up area with precast technology. ¨Waste control, speed of construction, high quality with virtually no repair or reworking cost and a superior finished product are other reasons why we have adopted precast technology.¨ But precast technology is equally applicable in the high-end construction segment, where Teemage has applied it with great success, effectively cutting development time to a third.
¨We´ve executed about 3 million sq ft of precast construction in the past three years, over 80 per cent of which is commercial real estate,¨ shares Dinesh Kumar, Technical Manager, Teemage Precast India. ¨On an average, it takes 75 days to complete 100,000 sq ft of commercial construction. Commercial real estate is more profitable than residential and institutional real estate to execute with precast technology because it involves bigger spans, so the concrete saving is more, and the services are all worked into the false ceiling. Pre-stressing cuts the need for reinforcement.¨
Opportunity: Shortage of centralised precast factories
A key difference between Teemage´s modus operandi for precast-based, high-end commercial construction and typical precast-based housing projects is that, ¨To execute more sophisticated commercial projects, Teemage has installed a Weckenmann centralised plant in Tirupur, near Coimbatore,¨ says Kumar, adding that site-based plants are well suited for the repetitive construction involved in housing projects.
Contrary to conventional table-shifting site plants, centralised plants feature fixed tables and moulds with the concrete being transported using distribution systems. Centralised plants offer greater flexibility than site-based plants. ¨In addition to walls and slabs, we can manufacture pre-stressed members, staircases, beams and column systems, all of which are transported to the site by trailers,¨ adds Kumar.
Indeed, tremendous scope exists for centralised precast factories in cities like Mumbai, Vijayawada, Chennai, Bengaluru and Delhi, according to Kumar. ¨India has only five to six centralised plants, much too few to service the mass market, especially smaller developers without the wherewithal to establish their own precast plants but who see the cost saving accruing from adopting faster precast technology.¨ Smaller developers are willing to pay the cost differential arising from transportation and the 14.5 per cent excise duty on factory-made precast elements, he adds. With about 60 per cent of the precast element cost being production cost, the latter amounts to a cost differential of around 9 per cent. Of course, GST might change this equation, and equalise the cost of precast from a centralised plant and a site-based plant.
Cement: Past, present and future growth
After posting single-digit growth for six years, Indian cement companies started to see signs of recovery in February 2016, ¨Although it lacks robustness,¨ says a senior official of a leading cement company in southern India.
Cement production during the last quarter of FY16 expanded at about 12 per cent across India, which is six times the meagre growth of 2 per cent during the first three quarters of FY16, and more than double the yearly average of 5 per cent. Even southern India, which registered de-growth of 4 per cent during the first three quarters, registered 11 per cent growth during the last quarter. During the quarter ended June 30, the cement industry grew 5.7 per cent.
¨Volumes across all our markets were 43 per cent higher in the quarter ended June 30 versus the corresponding quarter last year. However, volume growth slowed down,¨ says Deepak Khetrapal, Managing Director & CEO, Orient Cement.
How did different geographies perform? ¨In particular, lower volumes in Andhra Pradesh or Telangana and parts of Maharashtra were partially compensated by the rapid growth of volume into Karnataka, west Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh or Chhattisgarh,¨ says Khetrapal.
In FY2017, total consumption is estimated to touch 300 million metric tonne, as per market research company RNCOS. ¨Of late, demand has been stable compared to the previous year. However, we expect FY17 to end on a positive note,¨ says Shushmul Maheshwari, Chief Executive, RNCOS. The company predicts that consumption will grow at a CAGR of 9 per cent until FY2020.
Opportunities to absorb supply
With a turnaround in sight, the industry is optimistic about the excess capacity created after 2010 being slowly absorbed over a five-year period. In the last quarter of FY16, capacity utilisation on an all-India basis was 73 per cent while it was under 60 per cent in southern India with a supply overhang.
Housing and infrastructure will both impact cement demand. Housing will lead the revival because it accounts for about 67 per cent of cement consumption, according to Shushmul Maheshwari, Chief Executive, RNCOS. ¨Rising disposable income and the expected clearance of the GST Bill will spur housing demand. Housing for All by 2022, involving 295 million new houses for rural areas, will also have a great impact on demand. Further, the Real-Estate Regulator Bill, which reduces the risk of delayed construction projects, may prove beneficial.¨ Other factors likely to boost urban consumption are the implementation of the 7th Pay Commission report with substantial arrears to be paid in August and one-rank-one-pension.
Infrastructure development will impact cement demand as well.
¨Speedier infrastructure development (both project award and execution) spanning concrete roads, elevated expressways and metro projects promoting innovative modular precast construction and the development of port infrastructure and inland waterways shore protection should boost cement demand to help utilise spare capacity,¨ says Sujit Ghosh, Executive Director, Innovations, Dalmia Cement (Bharat). ¨Cement roads, the industrial corridors (Delhi-Mumbai, Bengaluru-Mumbai, Chennai-Bengaluru, Visakhapatnam-Chennai and Amritsar-Kolkata), new airports (plans to make 250 airports operational by 2030), seaports (12 major and 12 non-major) and new special economic zones (SEZs) will boost demand as well,¨ adds Maheshwari. ¨Good rainfall is expected to provide a strong boost to cement demand in the post-monsoon months,¨ reasons Deepak Khetrapal, Managing Director & CEO, Orient Cement. ¨Government projects for low-cost housing, roads, irrigation and metros as well as initiatives like smart cities and Swachh Bharat are expected to improve demand for cement in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra. The construction of the new capital of Andhra Pradesh at Amaravati is also expected to contribute to higher cement appetite in southern India.¨
Ghosh has another suggestion for addressing cement plant utilisation variances across northern and southern India: ¨Cost-friendly, efficient logistics supported by adequate rail-road and road-networks and a one-tax GST regime would make the cross-province movement of cement more efficient across the country, thereby helping even out capacity build-ups or shortfalls across India.¨

Demeaning letters
To the Editor:
The two letters in last week's Warwick Beacon from Warwick Republican Chairman Danny Hall, insulting Roy Dempsey and Bob Cushman, are disgraceful. These decent and dedicated men have spent years on behalf of all concerned citizens who are becoming sick and tired of the failing and destructive financial situation in our city and state. Far too many homeowners and taxpayers are reaching a point of desperation, while trying to hold their families together, after losing their jobs and savings.
As a conservative Republican, I find these uncalled for and unworthy letters demeaning to a return of a valid two-party system in Warwick. In truth, we are fortunate to have elected some Democrats who are attempting to restore fiscal sanity before it's too late. When Mr. Hall uses his pen to vilify the aforementioned caring and respected men, whom I'm proud to call my friends, the embarrassment cannot be tolerated.
Hopefully, Chairman Hall will use his talents to go after those Democrats who don't deserve re-election. Seventy years of their one-party rule and dominance in Rhode Island needs to be ended. For all our sakes.
Eugene A. Nadeau
Gene- The voter of Rhode Island can't tell a RINO from a DINO any more... Just look at the Republican Party in Warwick. It's a Joke!!!
Danny Hall just runs Avedisians slander department. When Avedisian runs for state wide office he's taking Danny with him.
" When Avedisian runs for state wide office he's taking Danny with him. "
Take Danny away the sooner the better.
What a disgrace to Warwick Danny is.
The republican chair that says the things he says about people standing for fiscal prudence is sinful and he should be removed from the chair immediatly or risk losing more republicans. I am dropping off the republican scope until he is removed.
Danny Hall is an embarrassment for sure, but more obvious and important is the fact that he is completely unqualified for his position. He never speaks publicly, insults those who attempt to make change, and stands by while people like Wilkinson, Travis, Galucci, and Place stomp on the residents first amendment. Just another guy who hides behind a keyboard with no gumption.
Mr. Nadeau,
You state that speaking ones mind is disgraceful, You however have no problem with doing the same. You seem to have the double standard that most politicians do.... which slander department are you working for? In my opinion it is obvious you are, and so are your friens
ds above.
Quote from jsimpson
" Mr. Nadeau,
You state that speaking ones mind is disgraceful, "
That was not stated at all by Mr Nadeau, you have a problem with comprehension and it is a serious one.
Mr Nadeau said the disgrace is what was said, and did not say speaking in and of itself was a disgrace.
Boy O boy, when people don't have a leg to stand on they resot to utter stupidity..
jsimpson you shoukl continue now with telling me I said legs are disgraceful.. ;)
Get yourself some skills bro.
Skills bro...... Said like a true Craigslister
Jsimpson or Jessica Simpson or aka Danny Hall's mom, please stop trying to defend your son.
If Jessica Simpson was Danny Hall's mom he'd be a lucky guy! The 3 or 4 names on here must be the last of the stooges, Good luck this year in the elections...The Tea Party candidates. Roy Dempsey, Helen Taylor, Rob Cote, Bob Cuchman (THE DREAM TEAM)

High Violet wasn't very good was it?
its got 2, 3 good songs at the most, Lemonworld and Anyone's Ghost being the 2 best.
Anyone still listening to it? I doubt it.
My opinion on it now is the same as it was when it first came out, really.
Lemonworld to Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks is possibly the best run of songs on any of their records, but the first half really isn't that great beyond Terrible Love (and even that's never quite sounded right on record, it's much better live).
- Severed799 and shady_lanes this'd this
- Icarus-Smicarus this'd this
Yeah I have, and it is.
But it's still not *quite* right, but can't put my finger on why.
Listened to it this morning
Still pretty amazing.
It's absolutely excellent.
The bar is Alligator and Boxer, which y'know are kind of amazing too.
I still listen to it and really like it,
but when I think about it, there's only actually a couple of songs that I love. Somehow it works very as an album despite that (and I'm no massive fanboy of theirs).
Didn't have you down as someone who engages in this sort of needy trolling, but...
It's a very good record.
Obviously it's a bit hard to get something to stand up to your previous attempts when you've released two near-perfect albums, but it's still excellent in its own right.
There is *something* missing, though. Every song's a good song, some of them bordering on being great, but there's not the, well...briliance of Boxer, or the general sense of momentum that Alligator had.
An 8.5/10 record for me, which by most other bands' standards would be great, but by theirs it just falls a bit short.kilgore-trout, Donnie, Severed799, and dis-charge this'd this
^^^ nailed it
His lyrics aren't as good on this one I reckon. Alligator just sounds like everyone's having a load of fun; Boxer is really pissed off; High Violet doesn't really know what it wants to be.
Feels like on the first two (not the actual first two) he is getting to terms with his drinking problem and then now his metabolic system just copes with all the bottles of wine. Basically Matt B. just needs to drink a load more when making this next record.suedehead and Severed799 this'd this
Lyrics are quite weak on High Violet, that's a good point.
People singing about becoming parents is always a bit boring, isn't it?
The lyrics on High Violet are a little less pyrotechnic than before
singing about being a parent might not chime with 20 year olds, but then they're in their thirties, and it's a bit fake to try to make music for 20 year olds when you're in your thirties, isn't it?
Quite a lot of lyrical couplets I like on High Violet.
not trolling pal.
an honest opinion.
I really tried, and wanted to like it.
- UnrealCity this'd this
terrible love's great
i never really listen past that. lemonworld's the most annoying song ever
I like the album as a whole
But Lemonworld seems like a parody of a National song to me... I've never got on with it at all. Conversation 16 is underrated.vamos and kostenurky this'd this
- vamos this'd this
Needed slightly more bite
and slightly more torture for me. I resent that the songs sound so so much better live.
Lemonworld is one of their best songs ever
total madness in the couple posts aboveGorkys_Forever and Icarus-Smicarus this'd this
Maybe not as good as Alligator or Boxer
but so are most things in life. Has it's own feel and stands up fine, also works great live. Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks works brilliantly as acoustic singalong at end of night
It's still good
High Violet was my 'in' to the National, I'd always ignored them as hipster arseholes until I heard Anyone's Ghost and thought "Ooh, actually they sound good". Loved High Violet, then sure enough found Alligator and Boxer which I loved even more, but came back to High Violet recently and it is still wonderful. It's more playful, I thought, "I was carried to Ohio in a swarm of bees" and all that. Less glum than some of the older stuff. I still struggle to say which is my favourite. Probably Boxer because it's a mid way between Alligator's subtle emotion and High Violet's more atmospheric approach. It's like ordering Radiohead albums though, the best is always the one you haven't listened to in the longest.theShipment this'd this
Agree with a few things said above
8/10 record due to how great the previous two were and not quite having its own sound. Personally think 'Lemonworld' sounds like another take on 'Slow show' (see the demo version on 'Virginia...'), 'England' is astounding and takes them into new, mainstream areas and 'Bloodbuzz Ohio' is glorious.
It's almost like their 'New adventures in Hi-Fi' (lots to love, moments of greatness, a few retreads and a bit divisive but which could open them up to a whole new fan base).
this thread has reminded me that it's a really good album
I haven't listened since 2010, but that happens to most records. they just get swept away by the next bunch.
got back into it a lot the past few weeks
after not listening in a while, and then seeing them at ATP and the songs from it sounding fresh and magnificent there. Really love it now, maybe at first I devoured it so eagerly and with such high expectations that I didn't let it grow on me. But for me it's up there with Boxer & Alligator
I understand it has taken you, but persist as you're wrong.
Replacing Terrible Love with the laternate version helps.
I think the second half of it actually dips but the first run of tracks up to and including Bloodbuzz is very high quality. Afraid of Everyone and Conversation 16 seem to be quite underrated by people.
It might be slightly under Alligator and Boxer overall, but it's the one that I come back to more often. Those other 2 records I kind of have to be in the right mood.
Maybe it's because High Violet is about being in your thirties and having a family and being world-weary, which is also me. If it sounds flat in places to people, I think you'll find that's deliberate...
One of my favourite records. Ever. Go figure.
yeah, I hated it
having been a pretty big fan up to then, that album combined with an awful gig in support of it (where Berninger appeared to be channelling the worst excesses of Stipe in his pomp) put me right off them to the extent that it's been more than 2 years since I last gave any of their records a spin
It's played all the time in my house by 3 different people inc myself
I've been listening to it consistently since it came out in 2010. I think it is their best album. It was also a nice gateway record for my housemate into other bands she didn't think she'd like.
- shakerwors this'd this
I still enjoy it.
Everything leading up to Bloodbuzz I really like, Afraid Of Everyone is a favourite. I'm not so keen on the second half - even Conversation 16 seems weakened in the context of the tracks around it.
It's fantastic...
apart from Lemonworld, which is a pointless retread of Slow Show
Apartment Story*
except I love Lemonworld
This thread has caused me to stick my vinyl copy on
like a hipster. It's the gorgeous violet coloured edition too. <3
SUCH A GOOD ALBUM.rich-t this'd this
Haven't listened to it for a while
in the process of listening now, to see how I feel, I remember liking it but not as much as Alligator but about as much as Boxer, the Alt version of Terrible Love is awesome
I don't listen to it that much these days..
Still thinks it's a pretty good album, by no means is it poor.
They've certainly got material for it, based on all the new songs performed live
Just remains to be seen whether they decide to get in the studio next year and if they do, how long it'll take them to put an album together this time.Captain_Obvious this'd this
High Violet was about nine months after the Festival Hall show
reckon we'll get it September-time. maybe a festival or two beforehand, then they'll tour it through to the end of 2014.
September release would give it a good shot at those all-important end of year lists as well.
It's incredible.
And Lemonworld is probably the worst song. So you're wrong on all levels.
- amputee-porn, Severed799, and shady_lanes this'd this
Still listening to it an unhealthy amount
So, respectfully, I must disagree whole-heartedly with your assessment sir.
Completes the finest consecutive three album run by any band since The Pixies to my mind.
Still, all subjective and that so as you were.
Oh, and Lemonworld?
Knocks it out of the park.
- jimmy_nouveau this'd this
I like how these threads always fill up with people saying Conversation 16 is underrated.
How ironic.
I don't really like it
I like England and I do sing along to others and enjoy a lot of them live but not really on record. It's undoubtedly an accomplished record but I'm not a fan of it, at all.
i listened to alligator for the first time this morning, with a big fan of it
i found it sterile and smug. but i can get why people like itSevered799 this'd this
Why has nobody mentioned Sorrow as a standout track.
Massively underrated, beautiful song. And as an album I'd say it has more replay value than Boxer, if not quite as good as Alligator.dis-charge this'd this

Get DVD Talk Feeds
The parody movie genre has taken a real beating over the last decade thanks in no small part to the efforts of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. After offering up a few laughs as writers of the first few entries of the Scary Movie franchise, they went on to bigger (but not better) things by co-writing and co-directing some of the most painfully unfunny excuses for comedy that I've ever witnessed (Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans...I'm looking at you).
It may seem unfair to drag Friedberg and Seltzer into any discussion of Supernatural Activity since they had nothing to do with this movie. However, a glance at the film's tagline 'From none of the creators of Scary Movie' shows that director Derek Lee Nixon and writer Andrew Pozza are comfortable with the comparison, the assumption being that their low-budget comedy is superior to Friedberg and Seltzer's glossier dreck. I hate to break it to them but the results don't bear that out.
It's sort of pointless to describe the plot of a movie like this since the story is just a weak clothesline on which to hang disjointed sequences cherry-picked from other (better) films. In this case, the genre of choice is horror with Nixon and Pozza taking shots at found-footage flicks, both recent (Paranormal Activity, The Last Exorcism) and not-so-recent (Blair Witch Project) as well as ghost-busting paranormal reality shows. Pozza stars as Damon, the leader of a team of paranormal investigators on a TV show called Supernatural Activity. His team also includes the psychic ex-stripper Blair (Liddy Bisanz), blonde heartthrob Brock (Donny Boaz), cameraman Doug (Devin Bonnee) and guns-and-ammo lovin' hick Pepper (Joey Oglesby).
The film is presented as the footage of a documentarian Tuck Thomas (Philip Marlatt) who follows the Supernatural Activity team into Hickville, TX on their quest for a yeti-demon called the Smallsquatch. Once the team arrives in Hickville, they split up so that Blair, Doug and Pepper can track the creature while Damon and Brock help a couple (Liz Waters And Tim Ogletree) with a small poltergeist problem they've been having. Tacked onto all of this is a possessed little girl who needs Damon's assistance to be freed from the demon that has taken control of her.
As you can see, the plot is quite silly and more than a little forced in order to maximize the number of movie / pop culture references that can be crammed into the film's running time. Besides the obvious horror movies that I mentioned earlier, we get gags based on sources as diverse as Inception, Tropic Thunder, MTV Cribs (?!), Lost (?!!) and Christian Bale's infamous meltdown. As much as Nixon and Pozza may try to distance themselves, this style of parody is right out of Friedberg/Seltzer's playbook. It operates on the deeply flawed belief that if you throw enough familiar references at the audience, then you don't have to do anything funny or interesting with them.
Thankfully, the scattershot pop culture references don't overwhelm the film as the focus usually drifts back to the horror movies that are being parodied. At that point, it becomes a question of whether the source material is juicy enough to provide new laughs. At least in the case of the Blair Witch Project, the answer is a resounding No. That film has been around long enough and parodied so many times that there just isn't much that can be done to subvert it with originality. This turns a significant portion of the film into dead space as Blair, Doug and Pepper are sent off into comedically barren terrain.
Damon and Brock are given a bit more to work with as they handle scenarios from Paranormal Activity and The Last Exorcism. While this means that the setups have more novelty, the uncertainty of their execution finds too many of the gags missing their mark. For an example of this, look at the séance scene partway through the film. It starts off with promise, lands a few laughs and then unravels as Pozza decides to ham it up to a level that would make Jim Carrey blush. To make matters worse, the scene keeps going and going long after you've figured out that it isn't going to dig any laughs out of you.
The performances are functional and nothing more. Pozza stands out, for both the right and the wrong reasons. I've already mentioned his tendency to chew the scenery but I must give credit to him where it's due. He often sets the tone for scenes that vacillate between the dramatic and the comedic (like his love story with Blair). Perhaps he simply has a better understanding of his own script. This spark of self-awareness gives me hope that Pozza and Nixon might be able to tighten their focus and set their sights a little higher if they should ever work together again.
The anamorphic widescreen image is clear enough but a bit lacking overall. Shadow detail isn't fabulous and the colors seem unnaturally boosted sometimes. Contrast also seems inconsistent in a few scenes. I also noted a few instances of banding. For a low budget production, the image is still fairly watchable.
The audio is presented in 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround and 2.0 Stereo mixes with optional English subtitles. I viewed the film with the surround mix and found it to be acceptable but nothing too impressive. The rear surrounds don't see too much action but the mix is at least free of obvious defects.
The only extra is a Trailer.
If comedy was easy, everybody would be doing it. Director Derek Lee Nixon and writer/star Andrew Pozza figure this out the hard way with their horror parody Supernatural Activity. They hobble themselves by relying on a few too many stale gags and misplaced pop culture references. When they manage to successfully focus on the found-footage genre that they are examining, a few of the setups show some promise. Unfortunately, faulty execution prevents many of the jokes from being carried to completion. There's more of a creative spark here than your average Friedberg/Seltzer collaboration but the payoff is still severely lacking. Skip It.

I'm sorry to hear that you are no longer interested in training your dogs with me.
I am urging you to reconsider that decision because, like I told you after my initial evaluation, pit bull owners are held to much higher standards by the public.
I do believe that Faust is a very easy going dog and will not be a problem, but your other dog has the potential to become very agressive and dangerous. I could see that in the way he interacted with me and I am certain that he will get worse in the future.
Faust and your other dog need heavy socialization with other dogs and people if you ever hope to get them certified. I have trained my own pit bulls at dog parks for years and I have had excellent results as you can see in my videos.
I recommended boot camp at my facility because your older dog needs to start over from the beginning. You saw yourself how he reacted to me, there was no obedience when I gave him a command. That is not acceptable in a pit bull.
At the very least you should consider rehoming him to a better suited and pit bull knowledgeable home, if you are not willing to train him properly or be much stricter in your dealings with him. The way he pawed at you and kept vocalizing at you is a concern since it shows a great lack of respect for you on his part.
Dogs like that are not above biting their owners or other people when they feel challenged in any way. Please keep that in mind at all times for your own safety.
He is a very big dog, and he is a very strong dog. He seems to be very stubborn and gets overly excited, which I also observed during my evaluation. You may not be the 'right' person to handle a dog like that, but I don't mean this personal in any way. Some pit bulls need harsher training and harder handling then others to teach them how to fit in and you yourself seem very soft spoken and mild mannered which can be counter productive when you have a strong willed pit bull.
Faust is very social and had no problems with me at all. Your other guy was very skittish and seems overly dependent on you. He was too concerned with what you wanted him to do when I asked him to perform some basic obedience and that is a red flag in this breed. My own pit bulls are trained to be obedient for anyone at any time, no matter what.
I can accomplish the same thing with your dogs if I have the opportunity to train them at my house.
If you change your mind please don't hesitate to contact me.

Regular Travelfish readers will be aware that we have, for a long time recommended the Australian-based World Nomads for travellers travel insurance needs. We think they're a great company who are very focused on what independent travellers need.
That said, their rates have been inching up, and over on the Travelfish forum there has been a long-running Q&A session about travel insurance rates at World Nomads. In order to get some perspective from the World Nomads side of things I got in touch with Katrina Greeves who is the Product Marketing Manager there, and ran some questions by her about what was the reasoning behind these changes in price. My questions in bold.
Hi Stuart,
Thanks for the chance to answer some of these tricky questions posed the Travelfish community. We really appreciate the feedback – your community's suggestions will help make our travel insurance better.
What has changed with how World Nomad's organises its country brackets?
The price for travel insurance always changes depending on your country of residence and where you are going. We've recently made some changes just for residents of the UK and Ireland, which has affected the price of our policies if you're going to S.E. Asia. For residents of the other 140+ countries we cover, our country brackets remain the same.
What brought about that change?
When lots of people from the UK and Ireland run into trouble in SE Asia and make a claim on their insurance, eventually, the pricing for everyone else is affected. Unfortunately, this is what has happened over the past 6 months with WorldNomads.com travel insurance, and that's why S.E and Eastern Asia has been bundled into the same region as the USA, Canada, The Caribbean and Japan for the time being.
So, what you're saying is, the rates are going up because a lot of Brits claim on their travel insurance – but isn't that the whole point of having travel insurance?
Actually the main reason people should consider travel insurance is to provide help if they get sick or injured when travelling. Not everyone needs to make a claim, but the costs involved in helping those that do can be substantial. When you consider that it can cost up to $200 000+ for emergency medical expenses if you're seriously injured, the cost you've paid for your insurance is probably the last thing on your mind.
Let's be straight: In this case, our insurance underwriters for UK and Irish residents have been required to pay out claims in excess of premiums earned and so need to increase our pricing to cover those losses.
To explain, we work with multiple underwriters around the world who price risk (a.k.a travel insurance) differently. Our prices can change depending on a number of different factors:
a) the number of claims made from travellers in a particular region;
b) the amount that is paid out to help people when they get sick, injured or have their belongings stolen; and
c) the number of travellers going to a particular region, their age and how long they're travelling.
Roughly what kind of increase in price for a traveller heading to SEA for three months does this equate to?
This is a tricky question to answer as there a lot of factors which change a travel insurance quote including: if you've bought a policy with World Nomads before, your country of residence, what adventure activities you'll do and if you need extra cover for your laptop or other high value items. For a single, UK traveller, going to S.E Asia for 3 months and who's not a World Nomads member, the base premium price increased by £32.65.
Other rates, especially for French travellers, seem unusually high – is this for the same reason?
The short answer is yes, over the past 12 months we've had to increase our prices for European residents.
Some people in the Travelfish community have noticed that our product for European residents is similar to other insurance providers. While we can not comment on why their prices are different, how they service their customers or pay their claims, we aim to provide the best value product, 24/7 travel assistance when things go wrong, and useful travel advice to keep our customers travelling safely.
World Nomads have a great brand, closely associated with backpackers and independent travel and they're the first insurer many backpackers think of when they look for travel insurance. But the new rates make WorldNomads significantly more expensive than other insurance providers. What advice can you give to travellers who are trying to decide between WorldNomads and one of the other cheaper providers?
Yes, World Nomads travel insurance was built for independent and adventurous travellers. We don't promise to be the cheapest, yet we'll always add value where we can – like the flexibility to buy travel insurance and claim online (even while travelling), up-to-date travel safety advice, free language guides or offering travellers the chance to donate to community development projects through our Footprints program.
At WorldNomads.com, we'll continue to choose insurers and emergency assistance partners that can support our customers globally, when they need it most. By all means, choose a travel insurance provider to suite your personal requirements. Whether it's the price or the knowledge that you're buying from a reputable company who'll help you when things go wrong, just remember that insurance policies do differ and can change, and you should read the fine print to make sure you know what's covered (and not). Our team is always ready to help answer your questions too – email@example.com
Thanks Katrina for taking the time to answer the above.

... and wonder what in the holy teapot's name you were thinking??
I'm doing that now. Boy, my ideas about things sure have changed since I first signed up when I was 15, and I'm 22 now.
In a way, all my postings are like a diary which I never thought I'd end up having.
I'm cringing at some of my earlier stuff, but also seeing the funny side of my naive teenage understandings and how real it all felt to me back then.
Hold tight for me being 29 and thinking the same about today!

Coast Guard: Budget cuts to limit flights, patrols
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Coast Guard commandant says the automatic budget cuts taking effect later this week would mean fewer flight hours for rescue helicopters and planes and fewer hours patrolling the seas for the service's boats and cutters.
Adm. Robert J. Papp said Wednesday that emergencies will be a priority. He didn't say how many patrol hours would be cut under what's known as sequestration. He said Coast Guard station commanders will be given daily allotments for patrol hours and decide how and where to spend them.
In a briefing with reporters, Papp acknowledged that interdictions of illegal immigrants, drugs and illegal fishing could decline.
In a speech earlier Wednesday, Papp told Coast Guard officers and employees to let him worry about the budget cuts and focus on their jobs.

Buttermilk Biscuits
4 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup vegetable shortening, cold, cut into ½ inch pieces
1 ½ to 2 cups buttermilk, plus additional for brushing
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Cut in the shortening using a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center and add 1 cup buttermilk. Using your hands, quickly fold the dry ingredients into the buttermilk until a sticky dough forms. You may need to add more buttermilk.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Gently fold the dough over itself 3 or 4 times to create layers. Press the dough out to 1 ½ inches thick and cut with a floured 3 inch biscuit cutter. Lay the biscuits on an ungreased cookie sheet and brush the tops with buttermilk.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until risen and golden brown.
