|RIP Vince
Vince was a Minnesotan and never forgot that. He didn't get wrapped up in the Hollywood celebrity style and move away, he kept his family here. I admire him for that. But to be perfectly honest, I created Geek to Author and began creative writing because of Vince Flynn. Not for his stories per se, but his journey of overcoming dyslexia and never accepting no for an answer. He took it to the extreme and self-published his first book Term Limits himself after getting told No countless times.
Struggling with that learning and productivity disorder to produce what he did is amazing. Sadly he was taken too early from us. Vince and his universe went with him. We may not have another author that will create the stories like he did, many will now try to take that spot, but few will have the character outside of the book that matched Vince's.
Through most of his career I would goto the HarMar Mall Barnes and Noble for each book release. Of all his books I think I missed 2 releases both because I was out of town on business. Vince started his tours in Minnesota and recently as his health deteriorated he stopped doing the public appearances. I will miss him.
So sad. So inspiring. So sad.
He is being laid to rest today in St. Paul, MN and will be surrounded by so many that were touched by his charity, generosity and caring for this country.
Time to turn the page.

Josh has been handling the chemo very well this time! Thank the Lord! He's feeling much better than he did with the last round! He's also been doing better about eating and keeping it down. The plan is for him to get released later this evening! Please pray that it works out that way and that they don't keep him waiting there! He's very anxious to get out of there and get home to his family!
I just received a prayer request from one of Mom's really good friends and would like to ask all of you to add them to your prayers and your prayer chains! Her sister has a good friend with a 3yr. old daughter named Kaitlin who just underwent heart surgery. Please pray for her to have a speedy recovery and for her health. Kaitlin's grandmother is also in the hospital battling aggressive ovarian cancer. Please pray for her healing and for the whole family as they are dealing with so much!

Help & Support Knowledge Base
What is the difference between a Course and a Lesson?
Inside your program you can create any number of Courses. Every Course can have an unlimited number of Lessons. If you wish, you can make certain Courses available to only certain groups of students using Roles. Once you publish a Course in your program, all of its published Lessons will be accessible to your students.
How can I change my platform styling?
You can add your program name or logo, change color schemes and more from your Account Settings page. This page is accessible from the left sidebar on your mentor dashboard, or the the drop down menu at the top right of every page.
How do I learn about my students performance?
There are a few ways you can measure students performance in your program. The mentor dashboard provides an overview and has links to the student list and answers views, but the most powerful way to gain insight on individual student performance is via their profile. As the mentor you will have access to a more detailed version of the student profile than students see themselves. Here you can see a student's recent lesson views and completions on a line chart as well as which lessons they recently viewed and how much time they have spent online inside your program (displayed under their profile picture). If a student comes to you saying that they are having trouble, or you notice them progressing slower than others, you can compare these metrics and an idea of what a student might need to do in order to progress best. Maybe that means they haven't made it to a certain lesson, haven't spent much time online, or have overlooked particular lesson that they completed too quickly.
How many lessons should I have before I start accepting students? How do I know when my program is ready?
Every program is different, but as a general guideline we recommend having one to three courses published when designing your program curriculum. Each course should have anywhere from 3 - 50 lessons.
Think to yourself, does this seem like enough content for this course, or are there too many lessons that could potentially be separated into a separate course? ie: "Interface Design 101" and "Advanced Interface Design"
How can I tell what my students will see when entering my platform?
We designed Heights so that you see what your students see. This way, as you are building your program out, you can feel confident since you are experiencing it the same ways students would be. Students won't be able to see your mentor dashboard, editor, or other admin sections, but lessons and courses will appear the same to them as they do to you. If you would like to get a sense of the student signup experience, you can set your program signup fee to $0 and signup with another email as a "dummy" student account. Then delete this dummy student user before you launch your program.
Is there a limit to content I can add?
You can create an unlimited amount of Courses and Lessons in your program regardless of the plan you are on.
Can I disable points or badges if I don't want them in my program?
Yes, in your Account Settings page you can disable these features as well as others if they are not needed for your particular program.
Do I need to have a Project for students before launching my program?
No, there is no strict requirement for Courses, Lessons or Projects, before your program is ready to go. Everyone will have different content that might benefit from a slightly different structure. We do believe that it is a good idea to find a way to work a Project into your program structure though since this will help students actually put what they learned to use and continue to learn from their peers work as well. You can learn more in the Projects section below, and you can always add a Project later after your program already has some students in it.
Program Structure
Your Program is composed of Courses, their Lessons , Discussions, and Projects. Learn about each of these types of content below to understand how they can be combined to make your learning program a success.
Our Platform Adheres to the Following Concepts:
- Getting results for students by helping them take action on what they learn
- Making learning enjoyable for students
- Making setting up your courses as effortless as possible so you can focus on teaching
- Allowing mentors to understand where there students are at instantly with real time activity feeds and actionable analytics
Your program can have many Courses. A course's name describes the subject of the type of lessons it will contain. For example we might create a course titled "Interface Design". It would then have many Lessons to teach about interface design. When a student purchases access to your program they will have access to all Courses inside it. Because Heights is a complete platform, we don't believe it would make sense to sell Courses individually. As you build your program and explore the options available to you, you'll learn that your program encompasses much more than a single Course.
Every Course you create will have many Lessons. Lessons are pieces of content that serve to teach or test your student. There are several lesson types:
- Text/Content
- Video
- Audio
- Download
- Assignment
This is the default text based lesson type. You can use the lesson editor to adjust and style text inside this type of lesson as well as add image content in between text. The same text/content area is available in all other lesson types as well. If you want to include another type of media in addition to text and images, you will want to use one of the lesson types below.
Many of your lessons will likely be video lessons. Like text/content lessons, you can include any text needed below the video. Sometimes you might not want to include any at all, but other times it might be a good idea to include a short description or a transcript. There are two ways in which you can add videos to your lessons:
Adding via Video URL
The "Video URL" is simply the link you see in the address bar of your browser when on the desired video page. There is no need to find your video platform's specific embed code. Simply copy the URL of the video on Youtube, Vimeo, Wistia, or almost any other popular platform and paste it in the "Video URL" field.
Adding via video URL is a great option if you already have your video content stored somewhere online, if you prefer the video player of a different service, or want the highest quality video playback possible.
Adding via Video Upload
If you prefer to upload your video files directly to Heights instead of using a third party video service, you can upload a video file from your computer and we will encode it so that it can be played back quickly across every kind of device.
After you upload your video, you will need to click "Save Lesson" to save the uploaded data. After you save, we will begin encoding your video for fast playback across devices and geographic locations. If you upload a large video, it may take a few minutes to finish the encoding process. When viewing your lesson if you see a message that your video is still encoding, you can leave the page open, or navigate away to work on other lessons, and your video will appear automatically when encoding is complete.
Videos uploaded to your Heights account will be encoded at 720p resolution. If having a higher resolution video is important to you, you can add videos via the "Video URL" method described above where there is no limit in resolution. Our built in video player will automatically match the color theme set for your account and includes a playback speed option that may be helpful to students who would like to listen to your content either faster or slower.
Audio lessons can be played directly from the lesson page using our built in player. Like video lessons, you may use the text area to include a transcript of what is said in the audio. To create an audio lesson, choose the Audio lesson type and upload your MP3 file.
If you would like to provide something for your students to download, choose the Download lesson type and paste in the URL of the file you are providing for download. This can be a Dropbox or Google Drive URL, or it can be a link to a file you have hosted somewhere else online.
If you would like to collect information from your students, you can use the Assignment lesson type. This lesson type allows you to supply a question at the bottom of your lesson content. Your students will be required to answer this question before they can complete the lesson. As a mentor, you can view the list of all of your student's answers by navigating to the Student Answers page available in the sidebar of your Mentor Dashboard. You can also use Zapier to be notified when a student submits a new answer (See API & Zapier).
Can I Include Multiple Types of Lesson Content in a Single Lesson?
To create a consistent experience for your students and ensure they know what to expect when navigating your course, a lesson cannot have multiple types other than the ability for all lessons to contain text and images. However, there is one exception to this rule: If you upload an audio file to an Audio lesson and then change the lesson type to Video, your lesson can have an audio player appear simultaneously below the video player. We offer this option incase you would like to have a video lesson with a separate audio track underneath (potentially followed by a transcript added in the lesson text), so that your students can choose how they want to consume your content.
To learn about editing your Lessons themselves, see our guide on the Lesson Editor.
Projects are a way of showing that students can put the content you've taught them to use in a real world setting. We believe this approach is much more beneficial to both the student and teacher than a traditional quiz or test. It is recommended that you have at least one Project in your Program.
What should my Project be for?
A Project should be a task where the student demonstrates achieving the goal of your program. Let's say your program is about teaching people to build their first app. Your Project might then be titled, 'Create your First App', where students would submit their work.Project Page with Project Posts by Students
Project Posts
Students can submit a Project Post in each project that you create. Since a Project is meant to put knowledge learned in your program to use, a student will not be able to submit a Project Post of their own until they have completed all the Lessons in your Program. All students are able to view, vote and comment on Project Posts even if they have not yet completed all Courses.
When any student or mentor votes up a Project Post, the post will receive 15 points and the student's points will increase by 15 as well. This mechanic helps motivate students to make an impact with their post.
As a mentor, you can interact with your student's Project Posts by commenting on them and providing feedback. The ability to comment and vote on new Project Posts gives your program alumni another reason to stick around besides your discussion forums.
Discussion Forums
Before allowing your students to post in a discussion forum it is important to understand a few quick concepts about forums work in Heights.
If you have moderated forums on the internet in the past, our system is similar in many ways. Topics can be stickied to the top of a messageboard, they can be locked to close a discussion and individual posts can be moderated and edited.
By default, new students are pending moderation, and new posts and topics inherit their moderation state from the student that created it. When you approve a new student's post, all of their later posts will be approved automatically.
Additionally, students always see their own posts regardless of the moderation state. For blocked students, this means they might not realize they have been blocked right away. Blocked students cannot send private messages.
Should you not have a need for, or wish to launch your program faster without worrying about learning the discussion area, you can disable the discussion area from your Account Settings page.
Students won't be able to see your mentor dashboard, editor, or other admin sections, but lessons and courses will appear the same to them as they do to you.
View all of your Students in the Student List . As a mentor you can view analytics on student activity and performance by visiting their profile, viewing their answers, their project posts, and their discussion comments.
You can allow Student's to enroll in your program for free, or charge them a one time fee to join. A Student account can also be converted to an additional author/admin on our Pro plan or above (See Additional Authors).
Badges and Points
By default badges and points are enabled in your program. You can choose to give a different amount of points upon completion of each of your lessons. Students can also receive points for votes on their Project Posts.
There are two types of badges inside Heights. The first are System Badges. System badges are the default built in badge set that will be automatically granted when the student meets a certain condition inside your platform (ie: completing their first lessson, earning 100 points, etc).Badge and Custom Badge List
The second type of badge is called Custom Badges. These are badges that you as the mentor can create with your own custom badge imagery. Custom Badges are manually granted to students from the Badge List page, accessible from your Mentor Dashboard. We provide a selection of premade custom badges which you can edit the name and description for, and if you would like to create your own badge image with a similar style, you can download our custom badge template: Download Custom Badge PSD Template .
To grant a custom badge to a student, simply click on the badge in your badge list, and on that badge's detail page, select the student to grant the badge to. After granting, your student will receive an achievement notification popup the next time they are online.
Program Administration
The sections below will explain how to use the functions and features of Heights Platform to manage your content and your students.
The Mentor Dashboard
As a mentor, whenever you log in to your platform, you will arrive at your Mentor Dashboard. Here you can get an overview of the pulse of your program and students' progress as well as dig deeper into student analytics should you choose. This view also provides links to all areas of the program that you will need to adjust and is not available to any of your students.
Lesson Editor
As a mentor, the majority of your time before your program launches will be spent in the Lesson Editor. Here you can create and edit lessons for all of your courses. You can drag and drop lessons in the left side outline to reorder them. When you choose to view your lesson by either clicking the view link at the bottom, or the lesson title in the top breadcrumb, what you see will be exactly what your student sees. When you first create a lesson it will be in draft mode. Remember to select publish and update your lesson to make it live. Students can only see lessons and courses that you have published.
At the top of the edit interface you can adjust the lesson title, author display (if you have added additional admins - see Author Help), and learning objective (summary appearing at the top of your Lesson and on Course detail pages).
The WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) text editor allows you to format your content without worrying about learning HTML. You can upload images to display in your lesson by clicking the "Insert Image" link in this formatting bar.
Below the lesson text you can choose lesson type, set a number of points for your student to receive upon completing the lesson, and view basic lesson stats (number of views, bookmarks, and percentage who've completed the lesson).
Lesson Release Settings
Requires Unlock - Guide Student Progression
By default students can access all lessons in your course and complete them in any order they choose. Heights Platform will automatically direct students to the next lesson in the sequence after they complete a lesson, however the student is free to browse another lesson further along in the course by default.
If you would like to ensure that your students complete a certain lesson before progressing to another, or to ensure that lessons are completed in order, you can use the "Requires Unlock" option available in the release settings at the bottom of the lesson edit view.
Checking "Requires Unlock" will require your student to complete the previous lesson in the sequence before they are able to view or complete the lesson that requires unlock. Checking "requires unlock" on the first lesson in your course will have no effect because there is no lesson before it to complete. Remember you can drag your lessons in the outline to reorder their sequence in your course.
Release Day - Drip Your Lesson Content
In the lesson release settings at the bottom of the lesson edit view, you can also choose to enter a release day for the lesson. This feature allows you to drip feed lesson content to students. For example, if you enter the number 7 as the lesson release day, the lesson will become available to students 7 days after they join your program. You can use this feature to help guide students through your program more slowly and keep fresh new content coming to them based on their individual signup time.
To learn more about the different types of Lessons themselves, see our guide on Lessons.
Publishing LessonsRelease and publish settings at the bottom of a lesson's edit page
When you create a lesson it will first appear in draft mode. Lessons in draft mode are only visible to program admins. Once you have finished adding content to your lesson and are ready for your students to see it, you must select the publish option at the bottom of the lesson edit view.
If your course containing the lesson is in draft mode then even though your lesson is published, students will still not be able to view it because the course is hidden in draft mode.
Program Outline EditorThe outline editor view helps you easily sketch out your program and organize/reorder content
When structuring your program you may have ideas of courses and lessons already set, and whether all of the content is ready or not, it is sometimes easier to quickly layout an outline before committing to an exact program structure. The outline editor will allow you to jumpstart your program creation by allowing you to quickly create courses and their lessons and to reorganize them by dragging and dropping. This way you can quickly create a complete structure for your program without having to fill out all of the content for each individual lesson.
Account Settings
You can find a button linking to your Account Settings at the bottom of the sidebar on the left sidebar of your Mentor Dashboard. The Account Settings area will allow you to adjust platform wide feature availability and appearance for your students. If you have signed up for a plan that offers whitelabeling you can adjust the platform logo text or upload a custom image here. You can also change the color theme of your platform or disable certain features like badges or the discussion forum (if you do not want to use them with your students).Color themes available in your account settings
Your account settings page is also the place where you can find your API key to connect to services like Zapier. Learn more about our API and Zapier Integration below.
Roles and Permissions
By default students have access to all courses in your platform. If you would like to limit access to certain courses and separate students into different groups you can create custom student roles. A course can have multiple roles to allow multiple different groups of students to access it. For example you might have an introductory course that applies to all of your students, but then you might have a beginner course and an advanced course where you don't want beginners to see the advanced content and you don't want advanced students to see the beginner content. You can create any number of roles needed to segment your students into groups that work for you.Role and Permissions Page
The Roles page is accessible from a link in your Account Settings page if you are on our Academy plan.
Payment Settings
The Payment Settings area is where you can connect your Stripe account to Heights in order to accept payments from your students. We chose to integrate with Stripe for its ease of use for both teachers and students, as well as its security. If you do not have a Stripe account yet, it is very easy to sign up and does not require a complex process like a typical payment gateway and merchant account setup would.
Before launching and promoting your program, you should be sure that you have filled out your refund policy and program details on the payment settings page: Edit Payment SettingsConnect your Stripe account, set a program fee, and edit the student billing page content
If you decide to leave your program free to access, students will be able to create an account and access all of your program without entering billing details. If you set a Program Signup Fee in the payment settings, then immediately after entering their name, email and password, students will be directed to a second step in the signup process that will require them to enter payment details before being able to view your program.NOTE: Ensure that you have your Stripe account connected before setting up your program signup fee. If your program has a signup fee, but is not connected to Stripe, students will not be able to complete enrollment and will see a message that your program is not open for enrollment.
When you connect your Stripe account to Heights, any transaction fees charged (Stripe's default is 2.9% + 30¢) are Stripe's alone. Heights Platform does not charge any additional transaction fees on the payments you collect from your students.
Coupon Codes
You can create Coupon Codes from within your payment settings area to provide discounted or free access to your program. When you want to enroll students for free even though your program has a fee, you can create a Coupon Code with a price of 0 to allow them to signup without being charged. When the Coupon Code's price is set to 0 we will still collect the student's payment information in your Stripe account, but no charge or payment authorization will be made.
Viewing Customers
Inside your Stripe account on https://stripe.com you will be able to see your enrolled students in your "Customers" page. If you need reference to who a specific customer is beyond seeing their email, you can click on them in Stripe and the "Description" text under Details and Account Information will show the customer's name, and the coupon code they used to sign up (if any).
Custom Domains
You can configure your platform to be located at a domain of your own to brand your platform. This will replace the default yoursubdomain.heightsplatform.com .
How to Setup Your Custom Domain
After purchasing a domain name from the registrar of your choice, login to your domain registrar and edit the DNS settings as follows:Your CNAME would point to your subdomain at heightsplatform.com instead of "demo" as shown above. You will likely also want to set a 301 redirect so visitors to the non-www version of your site will be forwarded to the www version or vice-versa.
This process will be the same for most popular domain name registrars ie: Google Domains, Namecheap, GoDaddy, etc.
- If there is an existing CNAME record for www, adjust it to the following: yoursubdomain.heightsplatform.com
- After you have made this change, make sure that you tell your Heights Platform account the domain you would like to use by typing it into the custom domain field of your account settings. It is important to type the domain in the way you want it to display. If you want students to see the www version and type www.yourdomain.com then you should add the www. when inputting your custom domain. Otherwise you can leave it without if you prefer the opposite (yourdomain.com).
- You will want to setup a permanent 301 redirect for your domain inside your domain account so that students are always directed to the correct version of your domain and can visit your platform. Usually this means redirecting the non-www version to always change to www. This is an important step for any website and if you skip it then students may not be able to access your platform.
- After adding the CNAME and saving your custom domain in your account settings, try visiting your domain after a few minutes to see if it displays your Heights Platform account. This process usually takes only a few minutes, but it can sometimes take up to 48 hours for DNS changes to propagate across the internet.
If you are unsure how to navigate and adjust your domain's DNS settings we recommend contacting your domain registrar's support. They will be able to help you take care of this process.
Haven't linked your custom domain to your account yet? Add a custom domain via your Account Settings page.NOTE: Because payment pages require a HTTPS for security, your student billing page will always display on your subdomain at heightsplatform.com rather than your custom domain.
Landing Page
Our landing page editor allows you to create a simple one page website to promote your program. We intentionally keep options for editing your landing page sparse and simple so that you don't need to spend time learning a new system, adjusting HTML, or checking different themes. We want to ensure your time is spent focusing on improving your program for your students rather than tinkering with web page settings. Landing pages have a title, subtitle, background image, main content section, and testimonial section. We also offer support for your connecting to your Google Analytics account to measure visitor analytics, and Facebook Ads tracking (coming soon).Example landing page using the default Heights green color theme
The color theme of your landing page will automatically match the color theme that you selected in your account settings for the rest of your program. You can find the link to Edit Your Landing Page on the left sidebar of your Mentor Dashboard.
Student Support Page
The built in support page allows you to answer student's common questions and help them learn how to find additional support easily. You can adjust your student support page to have any information or links needed. Students can find a link to the support page from the navigation bar menu dropdown in the very top right of every page of your platform.
You can find the link to Edit Your Support Page on the left sidebar of your Mentor Dashboard.
On the left sidebar of your Mentor Dashboard you can find a link to Create Announcements . An announcement is a notice that will appear for your students at the top of their courses page. You can use announcements to post notice of new courses/lessons that you've added, to link to a live webinar, or to announce details for an in person training or event. Every announcement has a start date and end date. The announcement will only be visible on the courses page during the period between its start and end date. The announcement type option simply displays a different icon for your announcement (Calendar icon for Date/Event, Exclamation icon for Notice, and Star icon for Celebration).
API & Zapier Integration
You can use Zapier to easily connect Heights Platform to your favorite apps. To do this you will need to create an account with Zapier and then create a new Zap. To connect your Heights Platform account to Zapier you will need to provide your API key. You can find your API key on your Account Settings page.
Zapier integration was recently introduced in Heights Platform. In order to have access to Heights Platform inside your Zapier account, you will need to follow our invite link: https://zapier.com/developer/invite/97366/69da0ac5f7bd0ac32c30e6a7872ebcd2/

So as you may know my family are giving up shopping at supermarkets – as the youngest (and best looking) member of 'Team Pugh' I could indeed see a little niche in the market! So in the foot steps of many who have gone before me (Mr Marks, Mr Spencer, Mr Sainsbury and Mr Morrisons) I have come up with a clever little plan to haul in some of my daddies hard earned cash! Now like any good sales idea some careful thought and preparation went before the grand opening and way back in August when my daddy reached the dangerous old age of 27 (imagine being that old, when he was born blogs were in small books called diaries and photos – well you could only take about 30 on any one film and you had to get them developed before you could see them – dark dark times) I presented him with what he deemed to be a lovely gift! He wasn't wrong however like lots of the clever people who made supermarkets I had used a bit of cunning in order to make this the gift that kept on giving, only not to him as he thought but to me! Ha ha now I have your attention fellow babies (Daisy, I know your mummy and grandma read this blog so listen up and turn your mummy's baking skills and your daddy's love of cake into cold hard cash)!
So get a mummy (or any other adult you like really who has 10 minutes and is able to write), get a plain plate and a ceramic maker pen (you can email me if you would like one – they are only £5.00) and ………. Write on the top 'Daddy's Magic Cake Plate', I got mummy to draw a picture of a cake on it but what you put on it is up to you. Let it dry then turn it over and write the following.
- Place plate on kitchen work top
- Place £1 here (I got my mummy to draw the shape of a coin)
- Leave for a few hours and a cake should appear
Leave this to dry for a few days and give to your daddy! You will also need a tin and eventually an off shore bank account in which to keep your takings!
So you've given the gift to your daddy and he's happy as he's worked out he's going to get cake whenever he wants it (especially good for mine as he can't just pop to Sainsbury's as from Monday) and here's the magic he puts his pound out you then give your cutest face to your mummy and she sets to work making a cake (you have to supervise and you have to sit for a little time in a baby bouncer or bumbo but that's business)! So daddy gets a cake, mummy gets the work and you well, erm……. get the cash! And the best bit about this is it happens time and time again probably until your at least as old as my daddy! So that my friends is the scam and like Mr Tesco you'll soon be getting every 1 in 8 pounds spent in your household!
I reckon Theo Paphitis and his fellow dragons might think this one has legs of course it would also work if your daddy liked baking and your mummy liked cake. Or if your granny liked baking and your granddad like cake! Hang on a minute I've just had a thought this works with my daddy so why not widen it out and with Christmas just around the corner get my mummy to make 2 more plates except this time they won't say 'Daddy's Magic Cake Plate' they'll say 'Grandad's Magic Cake Plate'!
Oh and one more thing if you are struggling with the making of the magic cake plate part feel free to drop me a line and for the sum of £10 including p&p I'll con my mum into making you a plate with the message and design of your choice! This is of course an excellent idea for a Christmas gift!
Bye for now

I should have had my stop a little looser than it was.. I did not give it enough room for the move I was anticipating It was Christmas eve and the first wick of the day wiped me out. The only thing I can do now is too move on and look to the next one. I wish it hadn't worked out like that but oh well. It did.

MULE (Buy CDs by this artist)
Mule (Quarterstick) 1992
If I Don't Six (Quarterstick) 1994
Wrung EP (Quarterstick) 1994
We Didn't See You on Sunday (Touch and Go) 1997
Push Me Again (Touch and Go) 1998
Remembered (Touch and Go) 2003
God Bless the Drunkard's Dog (Black Diamond) 2007
You Ain't Know the Man EP (Southern) 2007
After leading the band Wig in Detroit, singer/guitarist Preston Cleveland renamed himself P.W. Long (aka P-Bone) and formed Mule with bassist Kevin Strickland (renamed Kevin Munro) and drummer Jim Kimball. (The rhythm section had previously played in Ann Arbor's Laughing Hyenas, a band led by Cleveland's older brother, John Brannon, who was in an early version of Mule as well. Got all that?) Together, they lumbered into rock's ugly noise battleground, braiding a twisted Southern sensibility into Midwest aggression.
Mule contains an entertaining but uninformative comic book (The Story of Mule) and one acoustic old-timey ballad ("Now I Truly Understand") that walks a rocky road between condescension and sincerity. Otherwise, the band unloads nasty, harsh tunelessness of a species near and dear to Steve Albini (engineering here as Lenard Johns). A passing whiff of Lynyrd Skynyrd in "Mississippi Breaks" and Long's bogus backwoods hollerin' on "Mama's Reason to Cry" add an irrelevant accent to the proceedings; "What Every White Nigger Knows" contributes a bolt of arrogant stupidity.
Kimball left to form the Dennison-Kimball Trio, replaced by Daniel Jacob Wilson. Wisely dropping the 'billy club and folk pretensions, Wrung turns Mule towards Nick Cave's Birthday Party armageddon visions, using Long's bellowing vocals and trebly guitar abrasion to drive the four songs ("The Rope and the Cuckold" among them) into a fierce sick headache.
As if following Cave's progress from a distance, Mule tones it down and even swings, after a fashion in "The Beauteous" and "Nowhere's Back" on If I Don't Six; the latter song imports a very useful bit of organ. Most of the other seven tracks on the record (which begins enticingly enough with the orgasmic panting of guest Laura Borealis) also display a little extra thought, restraint and musicality, as well as a workable rapprochement with raw country desires ("Obion," "A Hundred Years"). The album is still as hard and dangerous as rusty nails to a blind carpenter, but the careful hammering makes the music reach in deeper, with fewer splinters and busted thumbs.
After Mule, Preston Wright Long embarked on a solo career in the late '90s with Reelfoot, which included drummer Mac McNeilly (ex-Jesus Lizard) and, at times, the late Dan Maister on bass and Boss Hog keyboardist Mark Boyce. With Reelfoot, Long abandoned much of the faux backwoods stomp of Mule in favor of a more laidback sound, allowing him to explore less caustic subject matter in his deeply personal lyrics. We Didn't See You on Sunday is a hodgepodge of bittersweet lullabies about dying moms and dogs who could teach people how to live life to its fullest. Push Me Again is the funkiest record Long has ever played on.
Following the dissolution of Reelfoot, Long went on an extended musical hiatus, one that was occasionally interrupted by sporadic solo gigging. He directed a music video for Hank Williams III, contributed record reviews to magazines and did time as a New York nightclub and restaurant critic for London's Crush Guide magazine. He spent time in New Orleans and LA before relocating to Fort Worth, TX.
Shellac curated the All Tomorrow's Parties festival in England in 2002 and tugged Long out of semi-retirement, which led to his first proper solo record, Remembered. Lyrically, the songs are even bleaker than before: "If the river was whiskey, I'd crawl down and roll in" is fairly typical. Long did a tour of Europe with a drummer and a couple of shows in the States before disappearing into relative obscurity yet again.
The next two years of Long's life were spent in the pursuit of such non-rock-related endeavors as continuing education and gainful employment. In 2005, he performed a couple of Mule and Reelfoot tunes by himself at Touch and Go's 25th anniversary party and then recorded the vinyl-only God Bless the Drunkard's Dog in Dallas. He formed Young James Long with drummer Taylor Young and guitarist Kirkland James and released an EP, You Ain't Know the Man. The short blasts of swampy punk, not unlike a simpler Mule, were largely improvised on the spot.[Ira Robbins / Joseph Larkin]

eBay Suffers Another Outage
Page 1 of 1
Shares of eBay were taking a hit Friday afternoon as the online auctioneer was weathering yet another in a series of outages.
Reports of the outage began surfacing Friday morning and eBay confirmed the outage Friday afternoon. The company said the site had been down since 7:30 a.m. Eastern, although it had not identified the problem.
eBay posted a statement blaming the situation on a network problem and said all auctions that would have ended between 7:20 a.m. Eastern to the time service is restored will be extended. Fees for auctions scheduled to end during the outage will be refunded.
Once word of the disruption hit Wall Street, eBay shares took a dive. In late afternoon trading, eBay (EBAY) was off 7-9/16 to 85-5/16.
That outage came just days after it launched a redesigned site, although the company said the redesign was not to blame. It attributed the down time to a database supplied by Oracle Corp.
Despite these problems, eBay continues to be the most prominent member of a crowded field that includes such competitors as Onsale and Ubid.
In an effort to broaden its offerings, eBay in late April purchased global appraisal and auction house Butterfield & Butterfield for about $260 million. It plans to employ Butterfield & Butterfield resources to enter the mid-tier auction arena. eBay will incorporate Butterfield & Butterfield's appraisal team of 50 specialists who specialize in the authentication, appraisal and marketing of art and fine collectibles such as paintings, furniture and jewelry.

Paul Nash
Circle Of The Monoliths (1937-38)
Notes from: Rennies Seaside Modern.
Paul Nash was an Official War Artist during both the First and Second World Wars.
He studied at the Slade School and later taught at the Royal College of Art where he encouraged his students, Ravilious and Bawden amongst them, to work as illustrators, designers and decorators.
The attempt by Nash to integrate his work into modern life was prompted by an avant-gardist desire to engage with audiences outside of the normal gallery context. Furthermore he hoped, like his design patrons Frank Pick and Harold Curwen, that art, beauty and modern life could be reconciled. Of course, Nash's own work was characterised by the sadness and melancholy of his own experience during WW1.
Nash was a member of Unit One (1933) and also of the English Surrealist movement. He was interested in photography and was at the forefront of attempts to integrate photgraphic elements into the visual language of the fine arts. Nash lived in Judd Street, London, at Dymchurch on Romney Marsh and in Dorset.
Nash's greatest paintings were often retrospective and symbolic representations of specific landscapes - the battlefields of WW1, the sea wall at Dymchurch and Romney Marsh in Kent, the Dorset coast, the ancient stone circle at Avebury, Wiltshire, and of other ancient sites in England including Wittemham Clumps.
Nash was an avant-gardist and polemical writer during the 1930s through the pages of the Architectural Review and Axis.

Juniper berries, are not berries as such, but are the female seed cone of the fruit of various species of juniper trees found in Europe. The strong flavored berries are primarily used as a spice, providing a unique flavor food. The berries can be used as a spice, fresh when they have the most flavor or dried. The berries are blue, purple, violet or blackish-brown in color. Juniper is well known as a flavor for game meat and other meat and veal dishes and as a flavor for sauces.

1991 1 Dollar 1-oz Silver Eagle PCGS PR69 DCAM Mercanti Signed
Hand-signed 1991 Silver Eagle PR69 Deep Cameo Proof
How does the most popular silver coin in the world catch the eye of the experienced collector? With hand-signed packaging by former Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, John Mercanti - available exclusively through GovMint.com.
First minted in 1986 at the San Francisco Mint, the Silver Eagle is the only most popular silver coin produced in the United States. And, this 1991 Silver Eagle PR69 Deep Cameo Proof is an extraordinary example of why the coin has become an international sensation.
First, the design is iconic. The obverse features "Walking Liberty," an image created by Adolph A. Weinman for the Walking Liberty Half Dollar (1916-1947). In this design, Lady Liberty crosses in front of a large rising sun, with one arm extended and the other carrying olive branches. A bold inscription includes "1991", "LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST." The reverse, designed by Mercanti, depicts an eagle with outspread wings behind a shield. Evocative of the Great Seal of the United States, the eagle grasps an olive branch and multiple arrows in its talons. In addition to thirteen stars soaring high above the eagle, the reverse also features the inscription "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "1 OZ. FINE SILVER - ONE DOLLAR," and "E PLURIBUS UNUM."
However, you'll enjoy this design all the more because your 1991 Silver Eagle has been given the grade PR69 by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PGCS) - a near-perfect rating that is further enhanced by a Deep Cameo (DCAM) designation. This combination assures you your coin looks virtually the same today as the day it was minted, with a spectacular mirrored background and deep contrast between the surface of the coin and its frosted images.
Struck in 1 oz. of .999 fine silver, your 1991 Silver Eagle is a proof coin - which were produced in much smaller mintages than their Brilliant Uncirculated counterparts. As a result, this coin is a uniquely beautiful offering to complete your silver collection…if you act fast. Quantities are limited, and the 1991 Silver Eagle PR69 coin is one of our top sellers.

Marion girls triumph at Centre tourney
Boys take third in Cougar Classic tournament
News editor
It was nip and tuck between Marion and Rural Vista in Saturday's girls' championship game of the Cougar Classic at Centre.
And then, it wasn't.
For two and a half quarters, the Warriors lagged behind the Heat anywhere from 2 to 6 points, trailing 24-21 at the half and 28-24 just 2 minutes into the third quarter.
In under a minute, a score by Kourtney Hansen and two buckets by Courtney Herzet drew the Warriors even at 30-30. The Warriors kept right on rolling with a 9-2 run to end the period, punctuated by a Corinna Crabb 3-pointer.
Jessi Lewman opened the fourth with a free throw and a bucket, and suddenly Marion found itself with a 10-point cushion, 42-32. Scores by Sam Richmond and Crabb gave the Warriors their largest lead of the night, 46-35, and Corin Parmley and Herzet hit free throws down the stretch to secure the championship with a 49-42 victory.
While coach Kelly Robson was pleased with his team's offensive output, it was their performance playing an unfamiliar zone defense that kept fouls down and created steals the Warriors turned into points.
"When we made that change and they played so hard in that zone, I think we won there," Robson said. "I don't want to short our offensive effort, but the girls made adjustments on defense that we haven't tried to make before, and that just shows the basketball smarts they've developed over the years."
Hansen dropped in 16 points in the win.
The Warriors opened the tournament Thursday with a relatively easy 47-29 win over Wakefield, with Alli Molleker's 10 points just two shy of Hansen's game-leading 12.
The Warriors cruised against the host Cougars in a Friday semifinal matchup, 59-31. Herzet caught fire with a late 12-point outburst, and Hansen again led all scorers with 26.
Across all three games, Hansen poured in 54 points, cashing in on numerous fast break opportunities and creating scores inside the lane.
The Warriors turned in three strong performances in three nights, with wins against Solomon and Rural Vista bookending a hard-fought loss to Centre.
The Warriors had to earn their win in the third-place contest against Rural Vista, clawing back from a 33-28 third-quarter deficit to tie the game a 42-42 going into the final stanza.
While Zackary Stuchlik fueled Marion's scoring in the first and third quarters, and Chase Stringer the second, it was Sam Zinn who lifted the team in the decisive fourth. Zinn scored 9 of the Warriors' 20 points in the period, including 5 charity tosses at the end.
Defense also was key, as Marion held Rural Vista to just 4 points in the final 4:30 of the game.
Stuchlik paced the Warriors' 62-53 win with 17 points, while Stringer and Zinn scored 12 each.
Friday's semifinal game was a matchup of old Cottonwood Valley League rivals, with the Cougars and Warriors expected to play a tight game.
What wasn't expected was a blistering point explosion from Centre guard Cole Srajer.
Best buddies with some of the Marion players when he teams up with them for spring baseball, Srajer was the Warriors' worst nightmare in the first half. Everything from off-balance layups to NBA-range 3-pointers fell for Srajer as he hit for 29 points in just 16 minutes.
The Warriors trailed 49-41 at the half, and while they topped 70 points for a second consecutive game, it was enough only to trim 2 points off the Centre lead in a 77-71 loss.
Stuchlik again led Marion with 19, and Stringer was nipping on his heels with 18. Noah Dalrymple notched 11 and Evann Heidebrect popped in 10.
It wasn't nearly so close Thursday against Solomon, although one couldn't tell by looking at the Gorillas' 30-27 halftime edge.
But the Warriors came out hot in the second half, outscoring Solomon 45-27 to win easily 72-57. As he did in subsequent games, Stuchlik took scoring honors with 19 points.

I live in the past. I am a keeper of mementos, a one woman storage facility of memories. I often tease my siblings that should I die, they would have no recollection at all of our childhood. Like a parlor trick, upon request I can recall the most mundane snatches of memory. I've had friends call to ask the name of an old boyfriend or the name of a song we loved in college.
But as much as I Iike to boast about my sharp memory, it is a double-edged sword. I am a highlight reel of every holiday tradition, car trip, and secret, but I also never forget the smallest slight or unkind word.
A good memory is what writers rely on, but writers for children have to reach even further back in their memory banks to retrieve childhood moments. The dreams, emotions and motivations of childhood are what we seek in order to write authentic voices for children. Childhood is often fondly referred to as the most idyllic period of our lives, yet I remember how often I was scared, or felt vulnerable and powerless in face of adults. How insecurity plagued me throughout middle school and my hopes and dreams seemed infinitely, impossibly far away.
How easy it is to forget who we once were. This month I will gather for my annual getaway with my childhood girlfriends. And though the four of us live distinctly different lives, miles apart, reunited we are once again exactly who we were in middle school. In these women, I see a reflection of who I was all those years ago before I went off to college, moved away, married, became a mother. In some ways I'm much the same—loud, opinionated, a storyteller. But they remind me that I was also once carefree, fun-loving and spontaneous.
I often share with my children that once upon a time I made some bad decisions, was impulsive, and indecisive. But for the most part, they continue to see me as a rule follower, a straight arrow, structured and disciplined. Recently when visiting the trendy Forever 21 store with my teenager, I pulled out a patent leather mini skirt and wistfully remarked, "I love this."
My daughter, looked at me shocked. "Who are you?" she asked, confused.
But in my teenage years, that patent leather miniskirt was me, complete with boots, fishnets and a turtleneck, it was my look. Last time I checked, they weren't selling them at Banana Republic. The years, or more specifically, the responsibilities of adulthood, have a way of erasing our former selves until all that's left is a misty, watercolored memory.
Often when I write scenes with young characters and their parents, I reference my own. And in doing so, remember how holding my mother's hand could erase many of my fears. The surge of guilt I felt every time I lied or disappointed them. The rage I felt when I was grounded. The pride of showing a good report card and how I looked to the stands to see my mother's face after I ran and won my 200 meter heats. When I write about the powerful moments between parents and children, I remember the cool baths my mother ran for me on warm summer days and the hot cereal my father cooked on cold winter mornings. When I write about setting, I remember the winters of my past, and my mother smearing Vaseline on my face before I walked to school to protect against biting wind and cold and listening on the radio with my brother and sister for word of a snow day and how I wished we lived in the town of Arlington or Belmont, so we wouldn't have to wait quite as long to hear the name Malden, when they listed the school closings alphabetically.
Memories evoke powerful emotions. And emotions evoke powerful memories. I am grateful for memory and for the characters who demand that I remember the young girl I once was.

Jeff Sorenson, President and CEO, TeraRecon
Jeff Sorenson is the President and CEO of TeraRecon, the largest independent medical image viewing solution provider with a focus on advanced image processing innovation. As part of his annual strategy for the organization, Jeff is focused on accelerating innovation and achieving aggressive growth and market goals.
The top 4 reasons Jeff loves Workboard are:
The whole organization now knows what's important from top to bottom. They know what's important to me and what they're doing to achieve those goals — all of our work in the company is organized inside of Workboard. With the mobile app, goals and status are visible anytime and anywhere and the data is clear: the more people focus on their goals, the more they achieve.
Where other tools are hard to roll out, the team's response to Workboard was "cool tool." Instead of laboriously tracking work through Excel or assigning tasks back and forth via email, we now organize work and projects in Workboard both within and across functions — and adoption was much faster than expected.
With clear and transparent goals, our team now aligns work to goals instead of prioritizing based on meetings on their calendar or the last email they received. Priorities are now determined by goals and target results for the quarter. Everyone can see what the deliverables are, the current status, full discussion, notes and documents all in one place. Collaboration is much easier and people have transparency. Because goals are visible across the board, teams engage in fun, friendly competition to achieve more.
The Workboard 1on1 feature provides the framework for more frequent discussions between managers and employees. A cool visualization prompts both manager and employee to talk about levels of engagement, performance, and alignment and quickly address gaps.
"Workboard keeps all employee goals connected to our companywide mission and strategy."
Aimee Allbritton
"Workboard helps our global team execute with transparency, and we've cut email volume by 80%!"
Shahed Islam
Managing Director
"With Workboard, we're goal aligned in real-time and achieving our best every day."
Rani Hublou

I couldn't agree more..:)ReplyDelete
its true that harboring a crush isn't that bad thing.. no matter what the age is, we still feel that child like excitement on being around that crush and enjoying that momentarily happiness...:) not everything is meant to be forever.. sometimes its a good thing to just be in the moment and enjoy those feelings of having a crush..:P :)
