WASHINGTON, Feb. 6 (UPI) -- President Obama issued new sanctions against Iran's banks, including its central bank, for their "deceptive practices" in hide dealings of sanctioned parties.
"I have determined that additional sanctions are warranted, particularly in light of the deceptive practices of the Central Bank of Iran and other Iranian banks to conceal transactions of sanctioned parties, the deficiencies in Iran's anti-money laundering regime and the weaknesses in its implementation, and the continuing and unacceptable risk posed to the international financial system by Iran's activities," Obama said in a letter to Congress about the executive order he signed Monday.
Under the order, the Iranian government, the Central Bank of Iran and all other Iranian financial institutions are now blocked, meaning their assets within the jurisdiction of U.S. individuals or entities are frozen, the Treasury Department said in a release.
The Treasury Department said the order blocks all property and interests in property of Iran's government, its banks and all financial institutions that are in the United States now or in the future, or come within the possession or control of U.S. entities. Before Monday's actions, U.S. individuals were required to "reject," rather than "block," Iranian transactions.
The new round of sanctions is the latest effort by the Obama administration to isolate Iran and damage its economy to try to persuade the Islamic republic to end its nuclear ambitions that Western nations say they believe are aimed at developing nuclear weapons capability.

The young Australian dramatist Finegan Kruckemeyer possesses a narrative voice endowed with inexhaustible imagination. His characters both tell and live their stories, with their fates entangling and disentangling, and their tales unexpectedly blending together. Noah, the Englishman, lives in Bristol, taking care of the community garden and mourning his deceased Italian wife, who has died during a road accident. Caleb, the Australian, is haunted by nightmares and vivid dreams, and even loses his job because of one of them. He moves to England, where he meets the dreamy girl Silvia. Emma, the Icelander, alias "the Greek", arrives at the conclusion that she is cursed: both of her brothers have died in dramatic circumstances at sea, while staring at her. So as to prevent the death of her beloved father, she decides to never return from the sea. Elise, the German from Braunschweig, drives her car with her little son every night, as it is the only way how to make the brain-damaged boy sleepy, as well as how to avoid making a decision between her husband and her lover. Silvia, who is capable of appearing and disappearing (she is evidently a sorceress), in some way or another influences the lives of all the four characters, also bringing about their unexpected encounters and revelations. Kruckemeyer's play At Sea, Staring Up was premiered in 2012 at the Jute Theatre in Cairns, Australia, and if we were to define its style, we could label it modern-time magic realism.
Approximate running time: 1 hours, 40 minutes, no intermission.

My friend Roger Newcomb, who is the editor of We Love Soaps, invited Moose and me to attend a Tribeca screening of Manhattanites, the film he co-produced with Lyle Kaminer. We really enjoyed it, and I think you'll like it too, especially if you are a soap fan.
Manhattanites tells the story of a group of young people whose busy lives intersect toward the end of the film in a fiery coincidence. The hub of all this activity is a downtown coffee shop where everyone, sooner or later, seems to end up.

When Is He Old Enough to Start Running?
So....Baron is five months now and still growing like a weed. He seems to change a bit every day. Most of his adult teeth are in except for those canines. He loves to fetch and run with his older brother Riley every day and I try to exercise him multiple times a day, work schedule and weather permitting. That being said...when do you think it's ok to begin taking him for runs? I am an avid runner and I am really hoping Baron will take to it and I am anxious to start with him. I know that I will need to start slow and add in short periods of jogging into his walks and build him up, I'm just worried about when is the right time to start this kind of activity? Is now ok, or do I need to wait a while longer. Does anyone have any experience, knowledge, or advice on this? Thanks.
You can start jogging him if he's willing and able and you are willing to pace him. Start slow and see how he does. Some dogs are much more coordinated at this age than others and that will be a big factor in how fast and far he will be able to go. Be sure not to push him and give him breaks as he needs them.
Elaine ... can you elaborate a bit more? I've read and been told that you should wait until the dog is at least a year.
I've wondered about this myself as Kyleigh could certainly run like the wind for hours at the off leash park ... but when I wanted to get her into pulling a sled, I was told to wait until she was at least a year.
Thanks in advance!
I wouldn't have a pup pull a sled as these dogs aren't built to do that and it will cause an unnatural force on the body and my belief is it would be hard on a pup.
I've been running puppies and dogs since time began and have no issue with running a puppy so long as you let the pup determine how ready they are for speed and distance. The younger the pup, the slower and shorter the distance. The more coordinated and structurally sound a pup is will also determine the speed and distance.
There are a lot of people that have zero experience with running dogs or puppies that are totally freaked out by running a pup before the age of two years old. People with over angulated pups or people that aren't willing to see how their pup is doing and letting the pup determine how well he's able to run, could have an issue with soft tissue injuries and lameness. Hopefully, these people would figure it out and back off the exercise on their pups.
These dogs were designed to be very active and run all day and I'm not going to stand in the way of that. That said, I'm not a fan of adding weight by backback or pulling sleds as it's not what the dog was designed to do.
Also some pups just don't have the energy for much exercise and are happy with just a walk around the block. My own pups couldn't get enough exercise and I was running them a slow jog of 3 miles by the time they were 6 months old.
The vast majority of owners don't exercise their pups anywhere near enough to begin with.

Diabetic Neuropathy: What You Need to Know
Cause and symptoms of neuropathy
Diabetic neuropathy is a complication of diabetes and usually occurs in association with chronically elevated blood glucose levels. Elevated glucose levels may damage the nerves--usually in the feet and legs--and this can result in pain, discomfort, and/or numbness.
If numbness occurs, it can be very difficult for someone to detect if he/she has a wound on one or both feet, so the symptom of numbness can be particularly dangerous. If someone is not able to feel a puncture of the skin that causes a wound--or the pain that follows—a cut or scratch may be overlooked and eventually become infected.
The symptoms of pain and discomfort can be debilitating for many people but fortunately there are medications that can be taken to help alleviate these symptoms.
Diabetic neuropathy can also cause problems in other parts of your body. Gastroparesis is a condition that arises from damaged nerves in the digestive system, and can cause abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, bloating, particularly after meals. Other gastrointestinal symptoms can include constipation or diarrhea. Nerve damage in other areas of the body can result in incomplete emptying of the bladder, incontinence, or sexual dysfunction. Damage to nerves that regulate blood flow and blood pressure can result in significant blood pressure drops when sitting or standing, causing a person to feel light-headed or even faint, particularly when standing from a sitting or lying position.
Treatment of neuropathy
If you already have nerve damage, there are things that can be done to slow the rate of progression or treat the symptoms. Maintaining good glucose control, as well as healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels, has been shown to prevent the progression of neuropathy. If you have numbness, you need to be vigilant about examining your feet for any unusual scratches or wounds. A foot self-exam every day will help you avoid further complications.
Neuropathy is not reversible, however, its symptoms are manageable. It is absolutely crucial for people with diabetic neuropathy to discuss the options for treatment with their healthcare professional before trying any treatment. Your doctor will be able to help you find the solution that works for you.
Some of the treatment options include:
- Antidepressants. It may sound unusual, but researchers have discovered that antidepressants can be very helpful in decreasing the pain of neuropathy. If your doctor prescribes it for you, it does not mean that he or she thinks you're depressed. The medication works by blocking pain receptors, and usually takes about a month to be effective. There are a number of different antidepressants that can be helpful in the treatment of painful neuropathy, and some have been specifically approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat neuropathy.
- Neurontin (gabapentin capsules). This is one of the most commonly used and effective medications to help with pain caused by neuropathy. Neurontin has relatively few side effects, so some people with diabetes may find this medication very helpful.
- Capsaicin. This is a topical cream applied to areas affected by neuropathy. Since it is a derivative of pepper, it is important that people with diabetic neuropathy find out if they are allergic to the cream before using a significant quantity. Be sure to do a small patch test first.
- Holistic or alternative treatments. Some people with diabetic neuropathy have found success with other forms of pain management such as biofeedback, meditation, hypnosis, or acupuncture.
The medications outlined above could be helpful in ending the discomfort of neuropathy, but prevention continues to be the number one way of avoiding the discomfort associated with this condition. By keeping tight control over your blood glucose, you may be able to reduce the symptoms associated with neuropathy, or avoid them altogether. By keeping your A1C at 7% or less, you'll be taking control of your blood glucose, and increasing your chances of avoiding neuropathy.

Imported Ossetra Caviar
aviar. Just the word brings to mind the ultimate in luxury. True caviar is the roe of a sturgeon that has been salted. Its earliest cultivation seems to go back to Persia, likely because different types of sturgeon thrived in the nearby Caspian and Black Seas. The word itself comes from the Persian word for egg, "khayah." Long enjoyed by the upper classes in Persia, Russia and beyond, caviar has endured as a delicacy for centuries.
Beluga sturgeon sometimes take up to 20 years to mature, and produce the most valuable type of caviar. Today the Beluga sturgeon is critically endangered so its caviar is no longer imported. Although production continues, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service banned its importation in 2005 in order to protect the fish from extinction. As a result, when we speak of caviar today, we likely refer to roe from another type of sturgeon. One of the most valued is the Siberian, or Ossetra sturgeon, (Acipenser baerii), which is a freshwater fish native to the Siberian river basins. Smaller than the behemoth beluga, this sturgeon weighs from fifty to two hundred pounds. Although populations in the wild are in decline, the Ossetra sturgeon has adapted well to captive-breeding and farm conditions. Most of the sturgeon caviar on the market today comes from an aqua farm.
Down on the Farm
In France, the techniques of aquaculture have been perfected. In the countryside of the Aquitaine region, huge state-of-the-art tanks hold Siberian sturgeon while they mature.
Our Ossetra Malossol Caviar is raised on such an aqua farm, exclusively for D'Artagnan. This is the only caviar exported to the U.S. by these caviar experts, who follow the strictest of animal welfare and environmental protocols. At our aqua farm, the wastewater actually runs cleaner than the same water at entry. The sturgeon benefit greatly from the exceptionally pure water, and the humane and pristine conditions in which they are bred and raised.
The process of harvesting the roe has not changed much over the years. The roe is removed from the belly of a sturgeon and then sieved delicately by hand; salt is added, and hand-packed into lined caviar tins. The term "malossol" is Russian and means "little salt." Traditionally, before refrigeration, it was difficult to preserve these raw fish eggs and transport them, so plenty of salt was needed. The less salt, the truer the caviar taste; lightly salted caviar was highly prized by the czars and Russian elite.
Eat Your Caviar
Caviar may be delicious, but it also packs plenty of nutritional value. Caviar contains calcium, phosphorus, selenium, iron, magnesium, and Vitamins B12, B6, B2, B44, C, A, and D. It's got amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids to recommend it as well. So eat your caviar!
Smaller in size than Beluga, Ossetra caviar ranges in color from warm brown to green-gray in color, to dark blue to jet black or even yellow. It is said to have a distinct flavor, and many caviar gourmands prefer the firm bead, texture, and buttery, rich flavor of Ossetra over all others, even the esteemed Beluga.
Our Ossetra caviar has round, plump grains with a unique, lingering nutty flavor and ultra-silky mouth feel. The color ranges from clear grey to golden chestnut to deep brown.
It is recommended that you open the vacuum-sealed tin 15 to 20 minutes before tasting; be sure to keep it cold while the caviar is exposed to the air. A bowl of ice chips makes the perfect nest for a tin of these valuable eggs. Scoop the caviar out of the tin carefully, so as not to break the eggs, using a mother of pearl, horn or wooden spoon. Metal spoons should never touch caviar as they can affect the taste.
Caviar is delicious enjoyed simply - atop a round of brioche toast, blini or steamed baby red potato, with or without a dollop of crème fraîche; or in your favorite canapé recipes, like these deviled quail eggs. Once opened, it is best to eat caviar quickly, as it does not have a long shelf life. Paired with champagne, sake, vodka or a dry white wine, it's hard to imagine that there will be any caviar left over.

I have quit a church that I have been a part of for 24 years. I no longer believe that there is a god and that everything I was taught is not true. It is interesting that people who said that they loved me and would always be there for me dumped me when they learned of my leaving the church and no longer beleiving in God.
Views: 165
I will appreciate you and respect you even if you decide to go back to church. Church is an immensely powerful social construct, and I can't fault people for staying in or returning to it just to belong, to feel a brotherhood with others.
In New York, there are congregations of something called the Society for Ethical Culture. You'd be forgiven if you took it for a synagogue for atheist Jews. But I wish they had groups like this in my part of the U.S.A. Church for the Godless, as it were. I am fortunate to have James Randi as a local resident, and had the privilege of meeting him recently. Interesting character.
I guess what I'm saying is, there is a social value in "fellowship," but it is a mistake to believe that church is the only thing that can bring people together in "fellowship." Find your true friends by pursuing your interests rather than feigning faith in a fairy tale. Anyone who requires me to accept their mythology to become their friend is not worthy of my friendship.
I have no intention of ever returning to church or god. I am finding more real friends and real love among fellow atheists.

|Head Coach
|Alma Mater:
|Graduating Year:
|(518) 442-3014
Jon Mueller enters his 20th season as the head coach of the University at Albany baseball program in 2019. The Stillwater, N.Y. native has had proven success as both a player and coach throughout his career. Mueller ranks first among UAlbany's career leaders with 377 coaching victories, and was named the America East Coach of the Year in 2004. He also led the Danes to the program's first America East Conference tournament championship title and NCAA appearance in 2007. Mueller has produced dozens of all-conference standouts and has had six players selected in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft under his direction.
Not only is Mueller well respected in the UAlbany campus community, but also throughout the region, as he was inducted into the Capital District Baseball Hall of Fame in the fall of 2012, as well as the Capital District Basketball Hall of Fame and Stillwater High School Hall of Fame in the fall of 2008. UAlbany placed third in the America East tournament, the team's highest finish since 2011.
The 2017 season saw the Great Danes earn 26 wins, the most since 2009, the third most in the program's Division I era, and the second most overall among America East teams that season. In conference, UAlbany went 10-13 to finish the regular season in fourth place, the team's best record and highest finish since 2013. Additionally, the Great Danes comiled their highest winning percentage, .500, since 2007, and were one of 18 teams out of 46 in the region to finish .500 or better. During the season, UAlbany players earned a total of four America East weekly awards. Following the regular season, UAlbany had seven players receive at totol of eight All-Conference awards, including First Team, Second Team, All-Rookie, and All-Academic.
Under Mueller's guidance, the program returned to the America East tournament during the 2016 season, thanks in part to a nine-win improvement of the team's 2015 record.
Right-handed pitcher Stephen Woods was selected in the eighth round of the MLB Draft by the San Francisco Giants as a junior. His selection, 245th overall, was the highest a UAlbany player has been selected in the MLB Draft. Additionally, Woods was the first America East player to come of the board last season.
Brendan Ryan joined Class of 2015 graduate Craig Lepre with the Normal Cornbelters in the Frontier League of independent baseball. Class of 2011 graduate David Kubiak was signed by the New York Yankees and promoted to the Trenton Thunder, the team's AA affiliate. In total, 13 players have singed independent league contracts during Coach Mueller's tenure, to go along with eight MLB Draft selections.
Mueller assembled UAlbany's 2013-14 incoming class that was recognized as the top recruiting class in the Northeast Region by Baseball America. Right-handed pitcher Stephen Woods highlighted the group, opting to attend UAlbany after the Tampa Bay Rays selected him in the sixth round of the 2013 MLB Draft. The Great Danes featured two all-conference selections in the 2014 season, as infielder Brian Bullard earned first-team honors and Evan Harasta was named to the second team, as well as the all-academic team.
In 2013, Mueller piloted UAlbany to an appearance in the America East Tournament for the fifth straight season and for the eighth time since 2004. Earning the No. 3 seed, the Great Danes logged a 16-14 conference mark on the season and finished the year with a 23-25-1 overall record. With a 4-3 victory over conference-foe Maine, Mueller reached the 300-win milestone on May 4th. Under Mueller's direction, UAlbany garnered seven all-conference honors, including Josh Nethaway's first-team accolade. The Great Danes also boasted the second-highest batting average in the conference with a collective .273 average and a .288 mark in league play.
In 2012, Mueller led the Great Danes to a No. 2 seed in the America East Championship, recording the highest total league wins in the program's Division I history, with a 16-8 record. Under his direction, seven earned all-conference honors, highlighted by first-teamers Mike Tirri and Nolan Gaige, as Gaige finished the season ranked third in the nation for triples (9). In addition, left-handed pitcher Sean Lucas was chosen in the 25th round of the Major League Baseball Draft by the Cincinnati Reds, marking the highest draft choice from the UAlbany program since 2002, and the eighth player in UAlbany history to be selected.
In 2011, the Great Danes advanced to the America East Championship game for the third straight season. As the fourth seed of the tournament, UAlbany eliminated top-seeded Stony Brook and second-seeded Binghamton before falling to Maine in the championship finale. Dave Kubiak, the 2011 UAlbany Male Athlete of the Year, became the seventh player in the baseball program's history to be chosen in the Major League Baseball Draft when the Tampa Bay Rays took him in the 36th round. Kubiak, a right-handed pitcher, and outfielder Nolan Gaige were named to the America East Baseball All-Conference Second Team, while catcher Josh Nethaway earned all-rookie recognition. In addition, reliever Greg Lutton was named to the all-academic team.
The Great Danes returned to the America East Conference championship game in 2009 after missing the tournament in 2008. At the time, Mueller guided UAlbany to its seventh 20-win season in an eight-year span, as the Great Danes finished second in the regular-season standings. Catcher Ryan Gugel and reliever Sean Gregory earned all-conference first-team accolades, while pitchers Dave Kubiak and Zach Kraham earned spots on the all-conference second team. Kraham also followed Kubiak as an all-rookie team member.
In 2007, the Great Danes secured their first America East Conference tournament championship title and NCAA appearance. Mueller also saw five of his players earn All-America East Conference accolades. UAlbany posted a 29-29 record, including 13-11 in the America East, and as the No. 3 seed captured its first America East tournament championship. UAlbany defeated Binghamton in the tournament final by posting the first-ever 1-0 victory in America East postseason play. The Great Danes made the program's first NCAA appearance as the fourth seed in the Fayetteville, Arkansas Regional.
Mueller led UAlbany to a single-season record 37 victories in 2004, going 37-14, including 14-7 in America East play, setting records for both wins and winning percentage (.725). The Great Danes finished tied for second in the conference and advanced to the America East championship for the first time, earning Mueller America East Coach of the Year honors.
Mueller coached 2004 America East player of the year Dan Schoonmaker, who set the school's single-season standard in RBI with 51. In addition, shortstop Joe Lamb and infielder Derek DeGrazio earned All-America East first-team honors, while relief pitcher Shawn Ryan, who was third in the country with 14 saves, joined DeGrazio on the American Baseball Coaches Association All-Northeast Region first team. DeGrazio was also named to the ECAC second team and Ryan was selected a collegebaseballinsider.com honorable mention All-America.
In addition to mentoring all-conference standouts, Mueller has had six players selected in the Major League Baseball Draft and even more go on to sign professional contracts. Prior to the drafts of Sean Lucas in 2012 and Dave Kubiak in 2011, Ryan Gugel signed a free agency contract with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2009, while Sean Gregory played for the Independent League Champions Quebec Capitals. In 2008, first baseman Mike Konstanty was chosen by the Cincinnati Reds in the 39th round. Catcher Tom Hill, a two-time All-America East Conference first-team selection at catcher, was chosen in the 34th round of the 2007 draft by the Kansas City Royals. Starting pitcher Adam Kroft, who went 8-3 with a 4.08 ERA as a senior, was chosen in the 30th round of the 2004 draft by the San Diego Padres. Kroft followed Mike Grasso, who was chosen in the 11th round by the Atlanta Braves in 2002 and Steve Checksfield, the school's all-time leader in several categories including home runs and RBI, who was selected in the 26th round by the Houston Astros in 2001. Checksfield was the first UAlbany player since 1974 to be drafted. Mueller has also coached other players that have inked free agent professional contracts, including Mark Suchowiecki, who signed with the Tampa Bay Rays in 2006 and pitched for their Class A affiliate, the Hudson Valley Renegades.
A volunteer baseball assistant at UAlbany prior to his current appointment, Mueller played professionally from 1994-2000 in the Northeast and Northern Leagues with the Albany-Colonie Diamond Dogs, Adirondack Lumberjacks and Marshall (Minn.) Mallards. A 6-foot-5, 245-pound infielder and designated hitter, Mueller accrued a career .286 batting average with 74 home runs and 318 RBI in seven professional seasons. He led the Northeastern League in homers in 1996 and 1997 with 18 and 20, respectively. In 1999, Mueller hit .290 with 13 home runs and 43 RBI, despite missing 30 games due to injury, and helped his team go 20-8 down the stretch to qualify for Northern League playoffs. He earned Most Valuable Player honors of the league's East Championship series when he had the game-winning two-run single in the fifth and deciding game.
In the Northeast League Championship series against Winnipeg, Mueller went 5-for-15 with two homers and seven RBI, including the game-winning grand slam with his team trailing 6-3 in the bottom of the eighth inning in Game 3 of the best-of-five series.

Red Hot Chili Peppers
- Michael Balzary
- John Frusciante
- Jack Irons
- Anthony Kiedis
- Josh Klinghoffer
- Cliff Martinez
- Hillel Slovak
- Chad Smith
Resilient. Ambitious. Innovative. The Red Hot Chili Peppers have been to hell and back wearing nothing but a tube sock.
Inspired by an eclectic mix of genres, the Red Hot Chili Peppers were the architects of a new sound, stretching the bounds of rock and their own creativity to their limit.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers created a synthesis of punk, funk, rock and rap to become one of the most popular and inventive groups of modern times. They have sold more than 60 million albums worldwide, and five of their albums have been certified multiplatinum in the U.S. They created two of the defining albums of the Nineties, Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991) and Californication (1999), and one of the most ambitious releases of the past 15 years, the double-disc Stadium Arcadium (2006).
Their eclectic music has ranged from thrashy punk-funk to Hendrix-laced neo-psychedelic rock to tuneful, ruminative California pop. "For all us to agree on a piece of music's validity," noted bassist Michael "Flea" Balzary, "that piece of music must cover all the blood types, all the seasons and all four corners of the globe." The Red Hot Chili Peppers also rank high among rock's most electrifying live acts, described by Flea as "a whirlwind of spontaneous anarchy, locked in with a cosmic hardcore soul groove."
Their live shows possess an energizing physicality that is liberating to both band and audience. "I take a total beating," vocalist Anthony Kiedis told writer Steve Roeser. "It's the sign of a good show. When you come off bleeding with bones poking out of you, you know that you put on a good show."
The group's principal subject, to which lyricist Kiedis has often returned, was the state of California. Much like the Beach Boys and the Eagles before them, they obsessed over the virtues and vices of life in the Golden State. Their musical outlook has always reflected the Southern California milieu, appealing to the hard-partying skateboard and slacker subcultures while also reaching those looking for sunnier, more spiritually uplifting grooves. The Red Hot Chili Peppers have experienced triumph and tragedy in their 30-year history, scaling the heights of popularity while confronting drug addiction and the death of a founding member along the way.
The roots of the Red Hot Chili Peppers extend back to 1977, when guitarist Hillel Slovak and drummer Jack Irons formed a KISS-inspired hard-rock band named Anthym with friends at Fairfax High School in Los Angeles. Flea became their bass player in 1979, while another high-school chum, Anthony Kiedis, would adopt the role of emcee. As their musical sophistication grew, Anthym evolved into What Is This?, an exploratory New Wave group serving as vehicle for Slovak and Irons.
Meanwhile, the departed Kiedis and Flea moved on to college, jobs and other projects. However, when they set some of Kiedis' words to Flea's music, the pair laid the groundwork for Red Hot Chili Peppers in 1983. They needed bandmates and asked Slovak and Irons to join them, which they did while still maintaining What Is This? For their first gig, at a club on L.A.'s Sunset Strip, they used the name Tony Flow & the Miraculous Majestic Masters of Mayhem, an indication of their offbeat humor.
Settling on the name Red Hot Chili Peppers, they built a following on the L.A. club circuit. They became known for the gimmick of performing nude, save for strategically placed tube socks. (After getting popular, they'd generally save the sock stunt for encores.) The Red Hot Chili Peppers were signed to EMI Records, but Slovak and Irons did not appear on the group's self-titled 1984 debut, opting to focus on What Is This?. Guitarist Jack Sherman and drummer Cliff Martinez replaced them on The Red Hot Chili Peppers, which was produced by Andrew Gill (from Britain's Gang of Four). The album, whose most memorable song was "True Men Don't Kill Coyotes," failed to make Billboard's Top 200.
Slovak was back in the lineup for Freaky Styley (1985), produced by Parliament-Funkadelic mastermind George Clinton. Its more overt punk-funk hybrid better captured the band's witty, forceful style, but the album still failed to chart. Drummer Irons rejoined for 1987's The Uplift Mofo Party Plan, which would turn out to be the only Red Hot Chili Peppers album to feature the founding foursome of Kiedis, Flea, Slovak and Irons. Cut with producer Michael Beinhorn, it was an early pinnacle, capturing the band's raucous high spirits and groundbreaking style. Yet The Uplift Mofo Party Plan peaked at only Number 148, and the uncategorizable Red Hot Chili Peppers struggled to gain a foothold at a time when synthesized New Wave dance music still ruled. The group received a crushing blow when guitarist Slovak died of a heroin overdose in his apartment in June 1988. Kiedis and Flea decided to continue, though drummer Irons left the band for good. Guitarist John Frusciante and drummer Chad Smith were selected as replacements.
The role of guitarist has been the least stable in the Red Hot Chili Peppers' career, but during two tenures Frusciante achieved the most longevity and success. The foursome of Kiedis, Flea, Frusciante and Smith recorded the classic albums Mother's Milk (1989), Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991), Californication (1999), By the Way (2002) and Stadium Arcadium (2006). In 1992, they broke through to a mass audience with "Under the Bridge," an ode to California with plainspoken lyrics about drug addiction that became their first Top 10 hit. They would later make the Top 10 again with "Scar Tissue" (1999) and "Dani California" (2006). This definitive lineup also acquired a reputation as one of rock's premier live acts.
After Frusciante's recruitment, the Red Hot Chili Peppers recorded Mother's Milk, with Beinhorn returning as producer. The album consolidated their strengths as a punk-funk powerhouse and included their rousing cover of Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground." Among the last tracks recorded by Hillel Slovak, it was included as a tribute to his memory and link to the revised lineup. Mother's Milk reached Number 52, by far their best-selling and highest-charting album to date, and the first to go gold. Moreover, it laid the groundwork for their breakthrough album, Blood Sugar Sex Magik. For this and subsequent releases, the Red Hot Chili Peppers teamed with producer Rick Rubin, who'd previously worked with the Beastie Boys, Danzig, Public Enemy, Run-D.M.C. and Slayer.
Blood Sugar Sex Magik was Red Hot Chili Peppers' fifth album and first for Warner Bros., to which the group signed after its contract with EMI expired. At Rubin's suggestion, the band moved into the producer's mansion turned recording studio in Los Angeles during sessions for Blood Sugar Sex Magik. Living and working at "The Mansion" promoted maximum creativity and unity, and enough material was cut to fill two CDs. At the label's insistence, they edited it down to a single CD, albeit a long one with 18 songs – which would've made it a double album in the vinyl era. The hit single was "Under the Bridge" (Number Two), but "Give It Away," "Breaking the Girl" and "Suck My Kiss" became popular modern-rock radio tracks.
Adjusting to their sudden popularity proved particularly difficult for guitarist Frusciante, who was the youngest band member by nearly eight years. Conflicted about success and grappling with drug addiction, he asked to leave during a 1992 tour of Japan. The remaining dates were canceled, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers searched for a replacement. Arik Marshall served as interim guitarist for the group's headlining spot on the Lollapalooza '92 tour, and Jesse Tobias (of Mother Tongue) was briefly a member. Dave Navarro, formerly of Jane's Addiction, officially became their new guitarist, making his public debut at the Woodstock '94 festival. However, his tenure was relatively short-lived, as he appeared only one album, 1995's One Hot. It proved to be one of their more difficult projects, as the musical chemistry with Navarro never quite gelled. In addition, Kiedis was dealing with physical injuries and resurgent drug issues during its making. In the band members' own words, it was a "darker" and "sadder" album. Two of its songs, "Tearjerker" and "Transcending," were written about the recently deceased Kurt Cobain and River Phoenix, respectively. Even with its moodier vibe and difficult gestation, the album yielded the Red Hot Chili Peppers classics "Aeroplane," "My Friends" and "Warped."
Meanwhile, Frusciante's drug habit had become so debilitating that he lost most of what he owned and very nearly died. The Red Hot Chili Peppers were foundering in their own way in his absence. The troubled group performed only one show in 1997—and even that was cut short. Navarro left the band by mutual consent in April 1998. With encouragement from his former bandmates, Frusciante entered drug rehab and was offered back his role as guitarist. The reconstituted Red Hot Chili Peppers thereupon entered the most stable period of their career, enduring without another personnel change from 1998 to 2008. The first product of their reunion was Californication, a highly creative endeavor that Kiedis considered the band's best work. Generally more melodic, philosophical and song-oriented, the 15-song album yielded a bounty of singles, including "Scar Tissue" (Number Nine), "Otherside" (Number 14), "Californication" (Number 69) and the popular modern-rock tracks "Around the World," "Road Trippin'" and "Parallel Universe."
In the summer of 1999, the Red Hot Chili Peppers embarked on a two-year world tour to support Californication. This included a notorious closing performance at the violence-marred Woodstock '99 festival, during which their highly charged encore of Jimi Hendrix's "Fire" (with a naked Flea covered only by his bass guitar) ignited an already incendiary situation.
The group started working on By the Way soon after the end of the Californication Tour. Released in July 2002, the album was noticeably light on the extroverted rap-funk that had established the group. Peaking at Number Two—making it the band's highest-charting album to date—By the Way yielded four singles: "The Zephyr Song," "Can't Stop," "Universally Speaking" and the title track. Another marathon tour outing, lasting more than a year, followed its release, culminating in huge shows at Ireland's Slane Castle and London's Hyde Park.
Stadium Arcadium became the Red Hot Chili Peppers' magnum opus and first Number One album, entering the Billboard chart in the top position on its release in May 2006. Once again there was a wealth of material—enough for what they initially conceived would be three albums released at half-year intervals. Instead, they issued a mammoth 28-track double CD, with leftovers parceled out as B sides. Truly, it was a Herculean achievement that cemented the Red Hot Chili Peppers' stature as the hardest-working and most ambitious band in popular music. The album won the group five more Grammys. Another world tour followed, for which guitarist Klinghoffer—a friend and collaborator of Frusciante's—joined as an auxiliary tour guitarist.
After a decade of ceaseless touring and recording, Frusciante left the Red Hot Chili Peppers for a second time. In this case, his departure was amicable, as he felt he'd accomplished everything he could with the band and wanted to devote his creative energies to his solo career. Having toured with the band, Josh Klinghoffer stayed on as Frusciante's replacement. He appears on I'm With You (2011) and The Getaway (2016), the band's 11th studio album.
Without question the Red Hot Chili Peppers are a band of survivors, having hit many bumps but never missing a beat. "I think without a genuine love for each other, we would have dried up a long time ago as a band," Kiedis remarked of the band's longevity. "There have been tragedies and incredibly inspirational experiences along the way, but the one thread that has been consistent has been the desire to create something honest, soulful and powerful."

Report: Dorial Green-Beckham's acquaintances in arrest say pot wasn't his
Missouri wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham found himself in trouble earlier this month when he and two others were arrested in Springfield, Mo., for suspicion of felony drug distribution after marijuana and other drug paraphernalia were found in a vehicle the three men were riding in. But Thursday brought potential good news, at least as far as Green-Beckham is concerned.
According to a report by the Springfield News-Leader, recently released documents (specifically, a probable cause statement submitted to Greene County Circuit Court with a search warrant request) show that Green-Beckham did not admit to owning any of the estimated pound of marijuana found in the vehicle, and that one of the other men in the car, Patrick Prouty, said that the marijuana belonged to him and that it was for personal use. Also, the other man arrested, John McDaniel, who was driving the vehicle, admitted to hiding one gram of marijuana in the glove box. Neither Prouty nor McDaniel said that Green-Beckham owned any of the marijuana, according to the documents.
Based on these documents, former Greene County prosecutor Darrell Moore said that he did not expect any charges to be filed against Green-Beckham.
"The caveat is, there may be more information than is in the search warrant return," Moore told the News Leader. "But based on those details, it doesn't look like any criminal charges will be brought against Green-Beckham."
The case remains under investigation, and criminal charges have not been filed after Green-Beckham and the two other men were arrested on Jan. 10.
Green-Beckham was previously charged in October 2012 with marijuana possession in Columbia, Mo., and later pleaded guilty to second-degree trespassing. He and two teammates were reportedly smoking pot in a campus parking lot near Memorial Stadium.
In a written statement, Green-Beckham attorneys Tyson Martin and Ryan Cole said their client has "been nothing but completely cooperative with law enforcement throughout this entire process."
"Dorial very much regrets putting himself in this situation, and he is anxious to put this ordeal behind him," the statement said.
While Green-Beckham, who led Missouri with 59 receptions last season, isn't out of the woods yet, it does appear increasingly probable that he won't suffer any further legal repercussions as a result of his arrest. Missouri coach Gary Pinkel has previously said that discipline for Green-Beckham will be handled internally.

Last year researchers at the University of Vermont announced something that could change the way we think about Vermont — or at least how it produces its famous maple syrup.
The time-honored method calls for inserting a tap near the bottom of a tall, mature maple tree. At the end of February, the tree thaws, and voila: Sap starts flowing out the spigot at the bottom.
But in 2010, these researchers were testing ways to gather sap from mature trees when they noticed something unusual.
One of the trees was missing most of its top, but the sap was still flowing. And flowing. And flowing.
That meant sap didn't flow exclusively from top to bottom from older trees, which is what everyone thought — for centuries.
Sap was coming up — from the ground. The size of the tree was irrelevant.
Laura Sorkin, a writer and co-owner of a large maple syrup operation in northern Vermont, described the study in Modern Farmer magazine.
The researchers tested the discovery on maple saplings growing near their lab, Sorkin tells NPR's Rachel Martin. They lopped off the tops, capped them with a tube and put them under vacuum pressure.
The small trees produced large amounts of sap, proving you don't need old trees to make syrup.
"It had never occurred to anyone," Sorkin says. "It's just always been done this way."
The discovery means sugar makers could plant dense rows of saplings and harvest the sap, essentially creating a maple sugar farm.
"Aside from harvesting fish from the sea, pretty much everything else that we eat comes from neatly planted, nicely managed row crops grown in fields," Sorkin says. "Maple syrup, on the other hand, is something we head off into the wild forest to get. Vermonters, I think, would be very reluctant to give that up."
A sap farm would take the romance out of maple syrup harvesting, Sorkin says. "There's no reason why it shouldn't be the same for maple syrup," she says, "but still, everyone that I mention this to, their reaction, it's quite visceral: 'What? That's wrong!' "
With a farm system, sugar makers could expand their operations without buying expensive new land, Sorkin says. The price of syrup would likely stay the same, though; despite higher yields for smaller parcels of property, the investment in labor and equipment would be hefty.
But the taste would stay the same.
"I would just have to say, ambrosia," says Sorkin. "It's sweet, but it's so much more than that. When combined with things like cream and butter for something like a maple pudding, there's nothing else like it."
There are some rules in the natural world: rain falls from clouds, trees grow up from the ground and syrup flows out of big, old trees. Well, that last rule turns out not to be so hard and fast. In 2010, researchers from the University of Vermont were testing ways to gather sap from a mature tree when something unusual happened. All the moisture in the tree dried up by the sap was still flowing. Which meant sap didn't flow exclusively top to bottom from really old trees, which is what everyone had thought for centuries. Sap must have been coming up from the ground. And it didn't matter if the tree was old or just a sapling. The researchers published their findings last year and it is starting to ripple through the community of sugar makers.
LAURA SORKIN: It had never occurred to anyone and it's just always been done this way.
MARTIN: This is Laura Sorkin of Vermont. She recently wrote a piece on this in Modern Farmer magazine. The discovery is important, she says, because it means you could create a syrup farm of sorts.
SORKIN: You can densely plant the saplings in a row, and when it comes time for the freeze-thaw cycles, they would lop off the top, cap it off, put vacuum on it and put a tube in and that would basically get your sap as opposed to getting it from a mature tree.
MARTIN: But Sorkin says that takes some of the romance out of maple syrup harvesting.
SORKIN: Aside from harvesting fish from the sea, pretty much everything else that we eat comes from neatly planted, nicely managed row crops grown in fields. Maple syrup, on the other hand, is something that, you know, we head off into the wild forest to get it. Vermonters, I think, would be very reluctant to give that up.
MARTIN: Most of the rest of the food we eat is grown on farms.
SORKIN: There's no reason why it shouldn't be the same for maple syrup. But still, you know, everyone that I mention this to, their reaction is, it's quite visceral. They're just, what? That's wrong.
MARTIN: And is this whole tapping trees thing worth it anyway? I had to ask. Can you just explain to me what it tastes like, really good maple syrup?
SORKIN: I would just have to say ambrosia.
MARTIN: Ambrosia.
SORKIN: It's sweet but it's so much more than that. When combined with things like cream and butter for something like a maple pudding, there's nothing else like it.
MARTIN: Well, now I don't care where it comes from. That's sugar maker Laura Sorkin.
MARTIN: You're listening to NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

A California man lay down in front of a car his friend was driving away from his birthday party and was killed just after midnight Sunday, San Diego police said.
Jonathan Carlyle Merkley, of Garden Grove, was celebrating his 34th birthday night at the Staybridge Suites hotel, in the 6600 block of Mira Mesa Boulevard, at about 12:30 a.m.
Witnesses said both had been drinking alcohol with friends before the incident, near the San Diego suburb of Sorrento Valley.
Merkley was trying to prevent the woman from leaving the hotel. He walked into the path of her BMW and lay down in front of the moving car, according to San Diego Police Sgt. Tom Sullivan.
The woman allegedly did not stop, ran over the man and kept going. The victim suffered major trauma to his chest and died about 45 minutes later at a hospital, Sullivan said.
Police know the identity of the BMW driver but she had not been arrested as of late Sunday morning, according to Sullivan.

Kurt Busch Leads Penske Racing at Atlanta
October 27, 2008
With adverse weather conditions once again taking their toll, cancelling NASCAR Cup Series qualifying on Friday, Busch started from the 19th spot in Sunday's race. Once the green flag flew, Busch and his Pat Tryson-led No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge team flexed their muscle on the 1.54-mile quad-oval. A daring outside move on Lap 40 saw Busch clear the cars of "Chasers" Jeff Burton, Clint Bowyer and Kevin Harvick, catapulting into the eighth spot. Busch wouldn't look back for the remainder of the race as he came home sixth to score his ninth top-10 result of the season. Busch is now up to 17th in the Cup Series point standings with three races remaining on the 2008 schedule.
"We felt like the run we had at Charlotte was a good place to start," Busch said of the chassis setup his team used in finishing a strong third at Lowe's Motor Speedway on Oct. 11. "We made changes based on the track being different here at Atlanta rather than Charlotte. All in all, that was the core setup. We polished on it from there. It was a really good run with the Miller Lite Dodge. We led laps; we were competitive. I think that's the key word that Roger Penske likes to use - we were competitive. No matter if we won or if we finished 10th, we had a good day today and brought it home in sixth."
Newman and the No. 12 Kodak Dodge team battled a loose-handling race car for more than half of the 325-lap event. Newman's loose car caused him to go one lap down early, but he and the No. 12 Kodak team kept working as they battled back onto the lead lap with just 27 laps remaining in the event. Newman mounted a charge in the final stages of the race, moving up as high as 12th, but he ultimately finished in 16th place. Newman is currently 16th in the Cup Series driver point standings.
"We struggled with the Kodak Dodge today," Newman said following the race. "We started the race just really loose. I don't think that I ever raced a looser race car than that in my life. I fell back a bit, got back on the lead lap and finished in the top 20. It was hard work and a team effort by everyone on the 12 team."
Hornish and the No. 77 Mobil 1 Dodge finished 24th on Sunday. A lap-three incident put the No. 77 team in an early-race deficit, but Hornish and the crew rallied to finish just two laps down to race winner Carl Edwards. After overcoming the early-race obstacle, Hornish secured a respectable result and was the top-finishing rookie driver for the third race in a row.
The No. 77 team remains 37th in the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series owner point standings, 130 points outside of the top 35.
"I'm really proud of this Mobil 1 team today," said Hornish. "I'm not really sure what happened there early in the race, but it's unfortunate because we had a good race car. We were able to fight back and get a decent finish and we gained more ground in the Rookie of the Year race. We'll stick with it and move forward next weekend at Texas Motor Speedway."
The Penske Racing trio returns to action next Sunday, November 2 for the Dickies 500 at Texas Motor Speedway in Ft. Worth, Texas. The race can be seen live on ABC at 3 p.m. EDT and coverage on PRN Radio begins at 3:30 p.m. EDT.

Sessegnon appeal rejected
Sunderland forward Stephane Sessegnon will miss the rest of the season after failing in his appeal against the three-match ban for his sending off against Aston Villa on Monday night, the FA has confirmed.
Referee Lee Probert issued a straight red card for Sessegnon's second-half challenge on Yacouba Sylla as the Black Cats slumped to a 6-1 Barclays Premier League defeat.
The 28-year-old will now miss Sunderland's remaining three games against Stoke, Southampton and Tottenham as Paolo Di Canio's men battle for survival
The player was astonished to be dismissed and Di Canio signalled the club's intention to appeal within minutes of the final whistle, but that has been rejected.
An FA statement read: "At an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing today, Stephane Sessegnon's claim of wrongful dismissal was unsuccessful meaning the Sunderland AFC player's three-match ban remains with immediate effect.
"Sessegnon was dismissed for serious foul play during his side's game against Aston Villa on Monday 29 April 2013."
The Benin international's red card was the second of his career in England, the first coming in a 1-1 league draw at Newcastle in March last year.
Sessegnon's absence will come as a major blow as he has been in sparkling form under new boss Di Canio, scoring the first goal in their 3-0 derby win at Newcastle and then firing his side to victory over Everton six days later to send them clear of the relegation zone.
Despite their humiliation at Villa, Sunderland, like Paul Lambert's men and the Magpies, remain five points better off than 18th-placed Wigan, although the Latics have a game in hand.
Sunderland take on the Potters and Southampton at home in their next two games and will hope to have safety wrapped up before travelling to White Hart Lane on the final day to face a Tottenham side which could still be battling for a Champions League place.
