Killswitch Engage Part Ways With Singer Howard Jones
Killswitch Engage, the Grammy-nominated metalcore force of the 2000s has just announced the departure of vocalist Howard Jones. The powerful voice behind songs such as 'Rose of Sharyn' and 'The End of Heartache' will be off to pursue different goals outside of the band.
The news sent a shockwave through Killswitch fans, with the post quickly bringing out a plethora of reactions from thousands of heartbroken fans on Facebook. On the other hand, some fans have been calling for the reunion of Killswitch Engage with original vocalist Jesse Leach. So far all that has been revealed is Killswitch will continue with a yet-to-be-found future singer.
Killswitch posted the announcement on their official Facebook page today (Jan. 4) at 2:30 PM EST:
To our family, friends and fans: We have decided to continue on without Howard Jones as the singer of Killswitch Engage. We love Howard and are thankful for the nine years that we've had him in the band. Out of respect for everyone involved, we will not be discussing the specific reasons behind this decision. Howard is a part of our family and always will be, and we wish him well. He has left big shoes to fill, so we certainly have our work cut out for us to find the next singer of Killswitch, something we plan on making priority #1 going forward. Most importantly, thanks to all of you for all the support throughout the years and for sticking by us for all this time. We really do appreciate it and we very much look forward to having a new record for all of you in the not too distant future that we can all be proud of. Sincerely, Adam, Joel, Mike & Justin.
As stated above, the band will be keeping the reasoning behind Jones' departure hidden for the foreseeable future. As of now, there has been no official comment from Howard Jones regarding his plans for the future.
What do you think about the decision to part ways with Howard Jones? Can Killswitch successfully continue their career without the trademark booming voice of Jones? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.

On the Street…. Florence, Italy

It is amazing how people wear colour in Italy. You rarely see black on black. –T
And I thought I was brave by buying my first paif of teal jeans. I love the colors!
STUNNING… Must be something in the Italian air– your skills are sharpened to their fullest potential in these portraits. Sublime.
I'm in love with the strong dynamics between the old-world street corners and the modern, fluorescent colors fleeting by. So surreal, like a painting.
Looking forward to your book– the "bespoke" edition, of course ;-)
This is a beautiful and serendipitous photo. A nice echo is happening between the two subjects.
love the lighting
I love the orange trousers! Very cool shot…
this is one of your best!!
In California, his pants are the color of prison-issue jumpsuits. If he wore that here, people would think he had just escaped from prison and shoplifted his getaway jacket & fedora from Brioni…
Brave ol' man for wearing orange trousers, though I'm not sure he's aware of how similarily dressed as the garbage-man he is:p Think this pic is kinda ironic. And well shot. This is litterally being at the right place at the right time. Nicely done!
really love the photo
the most is bot wearing orange! :p
I think the old man looks slightly modern; good for him!
First time I have seen this photo, I have thought..what??where is the look?
But at the second time I have seen not only a old man and a worker. I have seen the colors, the light, the simetry..
It is an aparent normal momment, but this photo let you to enjoy it.
pd: sorry for my english..
such a great image. I have a few pair of orange trousers in a mix of fabrics. I'm always a little self conscious about wearing them, but these men look so right, and the color is so joyous. We need a bright light here in NYC. I think I'll pull out my suede ones and take a walk on the wild side. All of your images on this trip are very compelling and provocative in the most unassuming way. I like your eye!. Congratulations on your upcoming book. I will anxiously await it. Enjoy your trip!
Fluff Chance
fine! love it! ;) – sabrina- brasil
excellent timing scott. light, colours and the energy of these beautiful men. gorgeous!!!
Beautiful lighting in this photo! and I love how both men have similarly colored outfits on, yet are so different.
it's interesting to see that fluoro orange is for uniforms around the world
great shot, makes you wonder what's going on.
I won't be adopting these fashions, but another lovely photograph. Regarding your book (YEAH!!!), I don't know if I will be able to afford the bespoke edition, but I'd certainly like it in hardcover- I'm sure it will be one to keep. I'm glad to know that it's forthcoming.
I love the contrasting colors. I took a photo of a construction worker here in Japan because their uniforms are so unique. They are blue with white borders. They look like school uniforms! Hope you are enjoying your time there!
Only in Italy could the fireman's pants be the perfect length. Or is he a gargabe man? Even hotter!
The symmetries here are awesome, what a magnificent slice of time, color and observation. Great shot.
This is what I wating for!
That's why I love your weblog.
and I just wondering,
Do they know that shooting by you Mr.scott?
Is this reportage?
I love the fact that you were able to capture in one shot the extremely different reasons for such similar looking pants. I wonder whether the bag-carrying gentleman considered this juxtaposition before he left the house.
This is AMAZING. Complimentary colors all the way! & the composition…… just beautiful
Super cool shot!
I've never been a huge fan of orange but this shot is fantastic; the colour and placement of the bag make the picture I think.
Mr. Sartorialist,
Nevermind the clothes, it's really amazing to see you develop as a photographer. Keep it up!
lol… you could not have possibly had better timing :)
i thought it was a contrast between a garbage man and a elderly man. not that i disapprove.
Looking forward to your book!
what kind of camera are you using now? Did you get the Canon 5d mark 2 yet?
I love how he matches the worker behind him! Was this on purpose?
Yeah…nice colors, nice lighting, and love his hat.
Old Italy and New Italy together. Both so different, yet they are united by color. The old man's style is fantastic. It's daring and classic at the same time.
makes me think of Operations
This is SUCH a cool photo. Like two Braniff jets in the 70′s, taxiing on a runway.
I love that punch of color on both the garbage man and the gent carrying his bag home. Nice contrast.
I love how both men are wearing the same color combination. One as a pedestrian and one as a uniform for work. Amazing candid picture!
ditto on the clever pup, quite fortuitous indeed. Also can be looked at as the "country" style and the "sporty" style =)
Tudo chic! kiss
This is such a wonderful photo. Seeing two people being so different but nearly identical at the same time without even noticing.. it's lovely.
Made me laugh and think.
Thank you for that.
the range orange coloured hues in this shot is interesting. The building, rubbish, pants and bin.
What!? It's not right! How do they make orange pants look so good! Amazing Italian style.. great one sartorialist.
my goodness. What a picture.
Never would I dare to try to pull off orange pants- but this man looks so good in them I think I'll have to now.
Not only is the outfit great (I'd like to see whats under the jacket though) but it's a great photograph. I especially like the construction worker's pants in the background in comparison to the ones the old man is wearing.
The colours and the light in this photo are superb.
Ah orange pants. How cool. I especially love what appears to be duct tape around the gentleman on the right's pants. Very interesting.
On another note, Sart, did you ever do that makeover on the student? I was kind of looking forward to it.
Orange trousers are huge this year among Italian and French sophisticated men. I have bumped (and photographed) a couple in Rome and Paris just a few weeks ago!
I love the pairing done here.
Sarto, your pictures seem more artistic when you are in Italy!
Oh, the light of Florence in winter… I miss it (and I miss the Italian man I once loved madly, too).
Superbe photo !
Scott i´ve always liked your images, but some of your late photos, like this one, are just impressive!
OMG this is perfection and also the first time I comment after reading and looking at your blog for over 2 years!!!
what I first noticed was the combine in their outfits and the second thing was that the garbage man is walking into the shadow and the other one into the light!!!
Gudrun from Iceland
I keep watching characters like this here in Barcelona, I just saw yesterday an old fancy lady with two colorfull pieces outfit with a textile bag of Harrod's in green, isn't it great??
There's a story being told here in the angles of their bodies, the surefootedness, straight back of the younger man, the gingerly step, slight bent of the elderly gentleman. Two people, having something in common, much not, meet for a moment in time, then pass, likely without comment. The younger man moves purposefully toward the light–he has work to do, a life to live. The older seems headed into the shadows… If asked to give a title to this photo, I'd use the opening line from Yeats' "Sailing to Byzantium": "This is no country for old men."
Besides the amazing juxtaposition of these two men, I love how the double stripe on the workers pants are echoed by the double stripe on the dumpster. Excellent shot.
The other comments make me unsure, but is the trouser in the foreground really orange?
The gentleman is standing exacltly in the sunshine, and also the wall is terracotta, so a plain pant can reflect this orange color as well…
wonderful, stunning photo
In a word, and to copy everyone else who has already blogged, "Stunning" pure and simple.
fantastic picture!!!
oh the color in this shot! complementary colors are so electric. this photo is pure art.
symmetry in colors – asymmetric walks of life? you never know. wonder what´s in his bag. fresh vegetables or a book on how-to-make-friends-without-trying-to-hard? great picture! makes me wanna go back to florence. instantly.
Nice shot. Great contrast!
isnt it great how captured moments in time make us overlay a story or interpretation…
did the blue bag man look back at you Sart when you were taking this shot as he seems to be heading straight into the corner rather than turning it or heading down the other direction?
again, the range of orange hues is great. love the shot, meets the fashion as well as art criteria that we have come to expect on your blog. love it.
In Brazil it's the same uniform, and i've always liked it! very cool!
What an incredible picture.
You really managed to catch the light at the PERFECT moment for having the best of those punchy colors.
I love the way the bright tangerine pants respond to one another, creating a bond between the two man…
Great great great
This picture is great. It makes an interesting point.
i love him! adore that shot x
Oh, I love this shot! For all the reasons the other commentators have already listed; I have to add my voice to the acclaim!
I have a vest made of the same fabric as the trash-man's. It even has the two reflective bands. Next time I am riding my motorbike in the rain, I will wear it with pride and look for you taking my photo, Mr Sart!
Are you KIDDIN' me with this shot? The pavement's colour in contrast to various oranges is insane. INSANE!!! Love it!
This is so beautiful. I really LOVE your pictures. Thanks for that daily real pleasure. Kisses from Saint Germain des près.
Isn't it via dei Peppi???? Or at least Via Ghibellina?
This makes me want to go to Italy so bad…
A keeper of a photo. (The guys with the clothes look great too.) The photo elements almost dance: the light making the mens' feet move, the shadows dancing, the red curves holding onto the dumpster, the wall color(s) accepting light, the grates counterpointing, the darks and lights accenting each other.
On the guys and their clothes – men of a certain age seemingly happy with bold choices. Love it.
Don't mean to post this twice – forgot the word verifying the first time -
I'm Ameriacan; went to school in the S. of France in the 70s. I kept seeing these guys in blue frocks…I thought they were chemistry profs…they all looked and acted like Einstein. Turns out they were janitors. Et bain alors, they looked great, just like the Italiano garbage man. Agnelli would approve.
Lets bring back the colors for this Spring!
excellent picture, congratulations Mr. Sartorialist! to some fashion addicts out there: don't take it too seriously, the man in the right is just at work (an important but not very glamourous one by the way) in his working clothes, I'm sure he didn't want to set a fashion statement.
This is by far one of my favorite pictures you have taken. The colors are so vibrant and just pop off the screen. I wish I was a photographer so I could understand how you did that. As far as the clothes, are the past really orange. If they are I say kudos. I don't have the guts to do that. I love the hat.
what a great photo. the timing of the sunlight on the pants, the complimentary colors, the different lives.
What a great pic!!
Bravo !!!!! really nice, one of them is wearing his work-cloths, safe & smart…. just Italy !!!!!

Bagaholicboy Muses #443 – Trunk ShowCategories:Other Brands
Because we all long to have a stack of these sitting in our living room (or bedroom, you get the picture), it's frankly not easy to actually get one especially if you live in Singapore (or in the region) and don't have access to estate sales, fine vintage purveyors or rich relations with gorgeous vintage trunks in their living room or bedrooms.
What we do have access to is Christie's, which I thought for the longest time was a playground meant for 1% of the populace. Not true. All you really have to do is to sign up for an account and you're good to go. And with Christie's ongoing online auction 'Vintage Couture', it's your chance (and mine) to pick up beautifully-aged trunks and steams from Louis Vuitton.
Pricey? Well, it really depends on how you look at it. The largest of the 3 trunks shown above is estimated to be worth around GBP6500, which is a steal for something that was made in the early 20th century, that must have surely travelled far with wonderful tales to tell, if it could, that is.
Besides vintage trunks, you will also find bags from the likes of Chanel and Hermès (some from recent years, others too old to decipher). What's more important to note is that there are definitely bargains to be had, from the ever-popular Birkin in many colours and sizes in the GBP5000 to GBP7000 range to a chocolate-brown Constancethat's now holding at GBP4000.
In other words, head over to Christie's now and have a look at what's available. Who knows? You might just be rewarded with a beautiful vintage bag you thought was never attainable.

Bagaholicboy Muses #446 – 10 Things On Sale You Should Buy NowCategories:Other Brands
What started out as a selection of cheery must-buys that are on sale quickly went another way, what with studs, lace, sequins and some form of abstract art making up all of my sale picks. A little bit dark, a little bit sensual and a little bit gothic, I guess you could blame it on the haze that we've been experiencing in Singapore getting to me.
And if you're on the lookout for accessories for a glamourous night out, start by having a look here. From clutches (there are 4 to choose from) to a beautifully printed MCQ tote, they are sourced from all manner of e-commerce portals having their end-of-season sales right now. What's more depressing than the haze? If you didn't pick up anything for a steal right now.
Clockwise from top left: Christian Louboutin Mina, now GBP815, Browns, Diane Von Furstenberg Sutra, now SGD220, Matches Fashion, Maison Michel Yoko Cat-Head Hairband, now GBP189, Net-A-Porter, Ann Demeulemeester Leather Flower Brooch, now GBP260, Browns, Givenchy Madonna iPhone Case, now SGD146, LUISAVIAROMA,MCQ Alexander McQueen Printed Shopper, now GBP159, Net-A-Porter, Saint Laurent Studded iPhone Case, now SGD314, LUISAVIAROMA, Anya Hindmarch Marano Glitter Clutch, now GBP274, THE OUTNET, Mulberry Wide Eliza Bracelet, now GBP100,Mulberry, Alexander McQueen Britannia Skull Clutch, now GBP657, Net-A-Porter

Bagaholicboy Muses #473 – 5 SLGs From The MATCHESFASHION Sale You Should Buy Now!Categories:Other Brands
Ok, so the title of this post isn't exactly 100% accurate since there are most definitely more than 5 SLGs you could buy now from the MATCHESFASHION sale. With discounts of up to 30% off (for now, anyway), you can pick up quite a lot of good deals, from the Fendi #BagBug wallet (was SGD445, now SGD310) to the bright fluorescent zip-around wallet from Saint Laurent that's just SGD360 now. The Givenchy leather zip clutch that measures 30 cm across? Now SGD530. Seriously. Last but not least, that pair from Pierre Hardy consisting of a zip pouch and a passport holder? SGD155and SGD130 respectively, which is really affordable even if they are just coated-canvas pieces.
In fact, besides these pieces, you'll also find everything from Fendi totes to Givenchy backpacks that are such good deals you'll pinch yourself if you miss out. One's justSGD785 after discount, the other is SGD860 after less. Yes, both are nylon, but that doesn't really matter, right? In other words, best you follow this link and nab all the best deals before they are all sold out,

Bagaholicboy Muses – Wallets With ChainsCategories:Other Brands
It's not a new style, nor something recently revived. Long wallets that come with sling chains of their own have been around for a long while now, and you could consider them female counterparts to males' leather billfolds that come with thick chain-link loops. But unlike the ones you find on the boys' wallets, the chains on wallets for the women are often thin and sleek, meant to accompany the long wallet that can be slung elegantly over the shoulder or across the body when you just don't want to lug the kitchen sink of your handbag around.
So what's a wallet with chain exactly useful for? It's the perfect bag to use for a night out with the girls especially when dancing and drinking is involved, and it's also good to have one on especially when you're dealing with a baby and her diaper bag; at least you know your valuables are always close to your body. And then there are days when you need to tune into bitch mode and claw your way through say, a Club21 Bazaar Sale, and carrying a handbag that will just hamper you will just not do.
And while there are many, many, many options out there, here are just 4 of my favourites for your kind consideration. All made of leather, I dare say that they are all tops when it comes to both form and function, be it something elegant like the newDior Twist, or something a tad grunge like the Chanel Boy Chanel WOC (wallet-on-chain) and even something that comes with its own iconic YSL logo, the Monogram Chain Wallet from Saint Laurent.
In other words, you just need to pick the one you like the most since they all pretty much work the same. So, what will it be for you?

Bagaholicboy Muses #465 – A Tale Of Two CitiesCategories:Other Brands
It has been an epic 10 day trip that saw me flying from Singapore to London and then on to Milan for both S/S15 runway presentations of Burberry and Gucci. And while the experience would not soon be forgotten, what with additional visits to flagship stores, factory tours and even a day spent at the museum, it's back to reality for me and that means getting back to blogging proper.
Rest assured there will be more posts regarding both brands in the coming weeks, along with what I did in London, Milan and Florence, but for now let's focus on the bags both luxury houses showed during their respective fashion weeks.
First up, we've got Burberry and their two key styles for the season, the Mini Bee inHorseferry check and the Book Cover Print Leather Pouch. The former an inspiration of an archive find, the latter an adaptation of the S/S15 mens collection which saw pieces like the satchels in two sizes and the giant leather notebook covers, both perfectly apt for Spring, what with their bright colours and bold prints.
Besides the fact that you can place your orders online now, the Mini Bee in Horseferrycheck also comes with an additional option of having your initials painted onto the bag, which you can see in detail here. Priced at SGD3595, the bag also comes with slightly longer than normal top handles and a long sling for ease of use. On the other hand, the SGD1925 Book Cover Print Leather Pouch is simply put, just a clutch. Measuring 25 cm by 15 cm, the whole of idea of it, while great with its colours and prints, doesn't really justify its asking price.
Now on to Gucci. In a runway collection that seems to draw from all the greats of Gucci's past, the bags are a mash-up of old and new. The one on the top (top right, to be exact), for example, is inspired by a piece that I saw displayed in Museo Gucci in Florence. The thick webbing strap, which founder Guccio Gucci loved as a fan of all things equestrian, is also the sling of choice for all Gucci's S/S15 bags. Available in 2 sizes and made from the Italian house's iconic GG monogram canvas to leather and even exotic croc, it's a style that will do well next season.
Then there's the continuation of the Jackie Soft collection into the next season, the shoulder bag made more robust with 2 roomy main compartments and 3 generous slip pockets for easy organisation. Topped with the same thick canvas strap that I adore,I've currently got my eye on the one in suede, even though as far as our tropical weather is concerned might not be that good an idea.
No word yet on the prices for Gucci's bags, so expect an update really soon. And thanks again to illustrator JaeSuk Kim for rushing out these beautiful illustrations for me. So tell me, any favourites from either of these 2 brands yet?

This post has been updated. See below for details.
Thursday night NBC staged a three-hour live performance of Rodgers and Hammserstein's "The Sound of Music," the world's most beloved musical, with Carrie Underwood as Maria von Trapp, a role originated onstage by Mary Martin and belonging forever to Julie Andrews, who starred in the 1965 film. It was, in its many opportunities for failure and public mockery, a crazy thing to do. But they did it.
Underwood is, of course, the pop superstar who first got famous as the fourth season winner of "American Idol." She has acted in one film (the 2011 "Soul Surfer") and an episode of "How I Met Your Mother," and done skits on TV specials in which she has handled herself capably, and obviously she's not afraid of messing up in front of a large crowd.
She also seems like a nice person; one would naturally root for her to do well. Still, it would have been best not to have to do that while the show was running. She was not the only obstacle to losing oneself in the play, certainly, but she was the one in the middle of the screen and the action. "The Sound of Music" has a big cast, but it is Maria's load to carry.
PHOTOS: Scenes from 'The Sound of Music Live!' | 'The Sound of Music' (1965)
If I could sing these songs as well as Underwood, I would sing them until the world was sick of me. But as a stage actress, there was no way to regard her as anything but an amateur -- good enough, certainly, to convey the meaning of her lines, and sometimes better than that, but lacking weight and substance and the shadings she can bring to a song. She cried real tears, too, but that may have been an effect of standing next to Audra McDonald, as the Mother Abbess, singing "Climb Every Mountain." Wouldn't you?
Indeed, Underwood -- whose marquee name, after all, was part of what this project required -- was surrounded and supported by people whose experience she lacked; director Rob Ashford has directed successful Broadway revivals of "Evita," "Promises, Promises" and "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" and choreographed many more; co-director Beth McCarthy ran "Saturday Night Live" for 11 years.
With her on camera were theater veterans McDonald, Christian Borle (who was on NBC's musical theater series "Smash") and Laura Benanti, who has herself played Maria on Broadway; Borle and Bernanti, both excellent, shared two numbers left out of the movie, "How Can Love Survive" and "No Way to Stop It." (The production followed the lines of the stage play.)
In their singing and dancing of "Sixteen Going on Seventeen," Michael Campayno as Rolf and Ariane Reinhardt (the juvenile, albeit an incipient Nazi, and the ingenue), were as good as one could want. The littler kids, being kids, were as good as they needed to be.
PHOTOS: Leading ladies of the fall TV season
But where Underwood could have used the most help, from her love interest, Captain von Trapp, little was coming. Stephen Moyer (from "True Blood," but with plenty of stage credits) had the anger and the stiffness the role certainly requires, but not the humor it needs. There was little sense, other than our own knowledge of the play or expectations of the form, that they were fated to fall for one another. He did sing well.
Musicals have worked on television; the Mary Martin "Peter Pan," mounted more than once, was a holiday staple for years. Andrews herself had starred in the Rodgers and Hammerstein made-for-TV musical "Cinderella," broadcast live on CBS in 1957. Still, there can be hurdles: If it is not television as usual, it is not like the theater either, where an audience is part of the ambience, its reactions part of the show. Without laughter or applause, jokes and songs can seem to be falling flat.
It was helpful, if you wanted to help, to regard this as really terrific community theater, rather than something professional and less than successful. But they got through it, and if as a critic I am bound to be critical, as an ordinary citizen I salute the effort. I imagine them all going off to Sardi's afterward to wait for the reviews, and keeping their chins up when they read them.
Update: An earlier version of this article stated that Andrews was first introduced to America in the 1957 musical "Cinderella." In fact, she had already appeared on national television, in the 1956 musical adaptation of Maxwell Anderson's "High Tor."

UEFA Euro 2012 Final
Spain vs Italy 20:45 SS3
WARSAW - The idea of Italy reaching Sunday's Uefa Euro 2012 final in Kiev would have been laughed at in the piazzas and pizzerias of Rome and Milan a month ago but now Cesare Prandelli's side are there against all the odds.
Thursday's 2-1 semi-final win over Germany stunned not just Joachim Loew's side but the Italian nation itself.
A 3-0 friendly defeat by Russia and yet another match-fixing affair which robbed the Azzurri of left back Domenico Criscito just before the tournament were not ideal preparations for a side who never expected to challenge for the title anyway.
However, Italians often thrive in adversity as seen in 1982 and 2006 when they won the World Cup, and beat Germany along the way, following domestic betting and cheating scandals.
They have now gone through a difficult group, which included final opponents and holders Spain, played England off the park before winning the quarterfinal on penalties and beaten in-form and free-scoring Germany with a clinical yet flamboyant display.
"We are living the dream with millions of Italians," said defender Giorgio Chiellini after Mario Balotelli's double extended Germany's record of never beating Italy in a major tournament.
"We will enjoy this victory a little then our thoughts turn to Sunday and we want to continue this dream."
Having matched Spain for long spells in their 1-1 Group C opener, the Azzurri will not be afraid of the world champions while Balotelli finding the net in such emphatic style will also give Italy fans confidence.
Apart from a superb volleyed goal against Ireland, Balotelli had missed an array of chances with critics wondering whether all the hype surrounding his wacky persona had covered up his failings as a footballer.
Germany now know all too well that on his day he can be a top performer, even if his opening header had much to do with Antonio Cassano's deft trickery and cross.
Prankster Cassano has had a tough year after recovering from heart surgery and still cannot complete a match, but he is Prandelli's joker in both senses of the word and that one bit of skill made all the difference.
Balotelli, in a ridiculous amount of space, then blasted in a second goal before the break with a swing of the boot that could easily have gone wide on another day.
This was Balotelli's match, however, as he gave the perfect riposte to opposition fans who have racially abused him at this tournament and the Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper which printed an ill-advised cartoon of him depicted as King Kong.
"This was the best night of my life," Balotelli said. "But I hope Sunday will be better. I hope to score four goals not two."

While acknowledging the role of lax oversight by maintenance inspectors, FAA and the U.S. Forest Service, the U.S. National Transportation Board on Tuesday placed much of the blame for a 2008 crash of a Sikorsky S-61 on the operator—Carson Helicopters. NTSB concluded that the main causes of the crash were Carson's "intentional" understatement of the helicopter's empty weight; altering of the power available chart (to exaggerate lift capability); and practice of using above minimum specification torque figures in performance calculations, which resulted in the pilots overestimating the load capability of the S-61. Also cited was "insufficient oversight" from FAA and the Forest Service. Contributing factors included the flight crew's failure to recognize the performance discrepancies during two departures prior to the accident flight.Full Story

I know I risk raising the ire of the film's fans with what I'm about to say, but here goes:
I find "Atlantis" to be one of the two most depressing features ever put out by Disney, the other being "Treasure Planet", and the backgrounds played a very large role in my disappointment. While the jungle and temple ruins are similar subject matter to the visuals of "The Jungle Book", the backgrounds in that earlier film are just so much richer than those in "Atlantis", for the simple reason that they were painted traditionally with gouache on illustration board, whereas the ones in "Atlantis" were all painted digitally, I believe using Photoshop. As a result, there is a rather sterile and metallic look to the colours, in my mind completely lacking warmth. Also, they painted them in a rather blobby fashion with those Photoshop virtual brushes, that makes them resemble those old paint-by-number hobby kits from the 1960s. Though I understand that this was all a deliberate design choice to get them to look reminiscent of the comic book art of Mike Mignola, on whose style the entire film was based, the resulting imagery I just felt to be dull and dreary looking, unbefitting a Disney animated feature.

Hi, could post some images of the background of the village from the musical 'Beauty and the Beast'? even if it is incomplete, as I long this background

I think that Atlanris is the best.
Surely a better and richer than The Princess and the Frog.
Directing and story are better.
Characters are better designed.
The orchestra has played much
Looks like a real movie

I don't think its so much the fact that they are digital, but more-so the weight of the colour which is so very easily overdone with Photoshop because you know you can always erase it. With traditional painting there has to be a more definite and careful hand which in turn gives the warmth and delicacy. But I think the style suits the theme somewhat anyway. I'm not sure the Little Mermaid look and feel would have done it much justice either. They are still beautiful backgrounds.

Like the Mignola style :D
Would love to see more retro, "That's the Truth About Mother Goose" or even "Emperor's New Groove"--those blow my brains out!
This blog blows my brains out. Thanks for all your work.

When you run your cursor over all those chinese characters in the previous post they are all adult sites. I guess that qualifies as spam?

These are the days that i really relish being unable not to wake up early. A novel awaits and all is quiet. Water that is not the ocean (a sound?) is beyond those trees and in a few hours, an enormous group of us will go to the beach. Last night gathered everyone and two of my cousins brought a Southern feast (yes, crab quiche is delicious). The Cleveland crowd (my brother's in-laws) were happy. There is a very particular rush of gladness in the realization that your brother, whom you love dearly, is dearly loved. And so vacation begins, our 7th here in 8 years - what now we might well consider a tradition that began with that first wild trip in 2004, when we brought my dad, thinking that being here, where he grew up, would bring him back to us. It didn't, of course, but it's brought us back here, and now the children take us to their favorite places, and the air is sweet with the promise of the sea.

1. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored.He hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible, swift sword;His truth is marching on.
(Chorus)Glory, glory, hallelujah!Glory, glory, hallelujah!Glory, glory, hallelujah!His truth is marching on.
2. He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;He is sifting out the hearts of men before his judgment seat.Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer him; be jubilant my feet!Our God is marching on.
3. In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea,With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me.As he died to make men holy, let us live to make men free,While God is marching on.

Amalie Marstrand - Conservation & Environment, Shark Conservation in Fiji
Ever since I was a kid I have been fascinated by the ocean and everything in it. As a child, I dreamt that one day I would become a mermaid and swim along with sharks, orcas and dolphins, in the deep blue sea. I aged some years, and to my big disappointment, becoming a mermaid was not on my guidance counsellor's lists of things to do, but the dream to one day see these animals and swim with them in their natural environment wasn't given up on.
I grew up and became aware that the magical underwater world that I had always been so fascinated by, might not be there for my future family to see, and that some of the animals that live on this planet today, soon might be wiped out forever.
I knew something had to be done, but how I personally could make a difference, I had no idea. So I joined Projects Abroad at their Shark Conservation project in Fiji, to learn more about sharks and to help spread the word.
Arriving in Fiji
I arrived in Fiji on a Monday, spending 36 hours on flights and in airports. I did not know what to expect when I landed and what the next four months in the country would be like. At the airport a sweet local woman put me onto the bus to Pacific Harbour; where my accommodation was.
As I sat there, in the crowded bus a bit tired but unable to sleep because of the hundreds of butterflies flying around in my stomach, all kinds of thoughts went through my head. I just sat there and tried to relax taking in all the new impressions around me. I glided through landscapes of deep green rainforests and white sand beaches behind a wall of palm trees, and even though I couldn't get any further from Denmark, I already felt like I was home.
My Shark Conservation placement
I arrived at the "shark house" where I met the other volunteers; so many people from different nationalities from all around the world with one great passion: sharks. There was so much to take in, in so little time, and for a moment it was easy to forget the reason for which I came to Fiji, and just enjoy the magnificent nature around me.
On the first evening in Fiji, my head had a difficult time catching up with my eyes. There I sat in a boat, under a supposedly endless black sky filled with glowing stars, feeling a cool breeze on my skin while the boat glided through the water, on my way to my first tagging trip. We didn't catch any sharks that night, but it didn't matter because I was still excited to see what was under the surface.
My first breath under water was a surprisingly uncomfortable experience. It felt so surreal being able to breath under water. I fell asleep that night, worrying about if I ever would learn how to dive. The next day we headed to the ocean on a little boat named, The Hunter. I suited up in all my gear, my dive instructor jumped in and suddenly I stood on the edge of the boat just staring down at the deep blue sea.
A rush went through my stomach and without any more thought, I took one giant stride into the water. A few seconds later, I was surrounded by corals and fish in every imaginable colour. So much beauty gathered in one place. Everything just seemed to move in synchronicity. The worrying thoughts I had had at the surface vanished as soon as I descended a few metres and took some deep breaths.
My experience in Fiji
I had now spent six days in Fiji and still hadn't seen any sign of a shark, but that was just about to change. On a Sunday, the last day of my dive course, we went to another reef. Again, I was in the water surrounded by fish in every size and corals in every colour. Though I was under the surface of the ocean, I felt like I was in heaven.
My dive was almost over and we headed back to boat, and then I saw it. A circa 120cm white tip reef shark swam out from under a massive coral. It lasted for just a few seconds; a few blinks with my eyes and it just silently continued into the blue and disappeared. The perfect predator right in front of my very own eyes!
You can't be anything but amazed by seeing these beautiful animals that have swam the waters of our planet for more than 400.000.000 years, swim just a few meters ahead of you. For millions of years Sharks have been on the top of the food chain, controlling the ocean's ecosystems and keeping the oceans healthy.
Reading about how the number of sharks in the oceans has been declining so rapidly; being finned and having their carcasses just being thrown overboard, to be in medicine and a status symbolizing soup just breaks my heart. This apex predator needs to exist in order to keep balance in the ocean.
All in all, my experience in Fiji has been amazing and my journey has only just begun.

A TT sounds like a steady hiss, a directional sounds like a series of overlapping "flop" sounds. Something about the hard exterior covering a less dense foamy core, and the fact that the directionals float on top of the chop and slap the water instead of cutting through it, gives that hollow sound that drives me nuts.ChristoffM wrote:Wow, this became quite a lively topic. I think it is good that everyone has their own preferences. It means there are people developing each aspect of the sport. I'd hate for kiting to have only one type of riding towards which to aspire to.
What? Is there really a noticeable difference between a surfboard and twintip? You guys must experience riding a hydrofoil downwind some time. Imagine almost silence. No wind noise since you travel downwind almost as fast as the wind. No water splash noise. Only the softest of water spray that sounds like a small water stream in the mountains. In fact it is the only way I have ever experienced where one can actually hear the white water chop break! Not from the shore (since the water hits the shore loudly), not in a boat (since the water hitting the boat is also too noisy) or jumping while kiting on a normal board (since that is stil too noisy due to wind noise) have I heard the sound of wind driven chop breaking in the out in the water. But riding downwind on a hydrofoil makes the difference in sounds between a surfboard and twintip sound ridiculous. But now that you mentioned it I am curious to be more attentive to it next time on the surfboard.-I can understand the speed over chop, but the noise factor would drive me f-kin nuts.
And a hydrofoil board makes me think about kiting on a directional while wearing clown stilts, and making the tacks even harder yet. I saw an experienced rider cruizing around on one of those, and it looked like the most unnatural, awkward thing imaginable. I'd rather ride a cardboard box or a yard sale sign.

Frontiers in Astrophysics: Spectacular Supernovae main content.
by AMNH on
While supernovae are some of the most energetic phenomena known to science, a great deal of mystery still surrounds their origins. In this podcast from a recent "Frontiers in Astrophysics," postdoctoral fellow Joanne Bibby and Richard Gilder Graduate School student Graham Kanarek introduce the theory that predicts massive stars as supernova progenitors, and discuss how scientists might confirm such a theory in the future.
The talk, "Spectacular Supernovae" was introduced by Department of Astrophysics Curator Michael Shara, and took place at the museum on October 15, 2012.

The local representative of the French consul Wednesday assured World War II veterans who helped liberate his country that they too will receive prestigious Legion of Honor medals, if they applied.
The local representative of the French consul Wednesday assured World War II veterans who helped liberate his country that they too will receive prestigious Legion of Honor medals, if they applied.
But Claude Berthoin, an Ormond Beach international businessman, said the screening and processing in Paris and the United States can take up to a year before a veteran is invited to a ceremony like Tuesday's, where 24 D-Day survivors were honored in Daytona Beach.
Roger Stagnol of Port Orange, Herschel Brohinsky, Edgewater, and Sal Palacino, DeLand, all applicants, were upset at not being invited to the medal ceremony.
Palacino, 89, was among the first wave of troops to hit Normandy's Omaha Beach on D-Day, where the heaviest losses of life took place. Ten thousand Americans died that first day.
"There are less than 400 of us left," said Palacino, adding he submitted his medal application last February.
Berthoin said Tuesday's ceremony, the first in this area, wasn't an all-inclusive, one-time acknowledgement of local veterans who helped liberate France. He said other veterans will be honored and their applications probably are in a "pending status."
"We can't wait to receive all the medals to be bestowed in a territory to do a ceremony. Time is of the essence, and we do them as we have at least 10 recipients," Berthoin said. "The process just started ... this was just the beginning and more ceremonies will be performed within the next three to six months."
He added that veterans can check the status of their applications, or receive information about applying, by calling 305-403-4180 or emailing the French consulate in Miami at email@example.com
Away on a business trip, Berthoin said he would "do my best" to resolve any questions by veterans about their applications when he returns in a week.
Established by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802, the Legion of Honor medal is the most prestigious honor given by France for exceptional merit. Notable American recipients in the past include Thomas Edison, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Colin Powell.
The medal currently is being given to American veterans nationwide who fought during the liberation of France between 1944-45 as a symbol of appreciation. So far, about 800 medals have been handed out in Florida alone — the most in the United States.

My last night with the Twins
Posted 27 March 2015 - 11:11 PM
I made promises to myself and Gerry that we wouldn't adopt for at least a year after Razzo passed.
We have extensive travel plans for this year etc.
Now, it is time to head back to NY and they haven't gotten adopted yet. Shy (Sheyenne) and Dilly (Dillinger) will be going to another foster home tomorrow. They have blossomed so much. They now play with toys! They love meal time now too. They are so good, the only barrier to a quick adoption is the idea that we'd like them to stay together.
I will miss them so much

It's clear that they've blossomed because they were under your loving care Enjoy NY. I am sure they will do well in their next foster home and find a forever home soon too.

You have been an angel to keep them as you have! They have been so lucky to stay with you, and I am sure the right family will find them soon enough! Enjoy your travels and be safe!

But they are playing and eating well, which is great since it took them a long time with us to relax and know they were/are loved.
