Scientist Marco Kaltofen Presents Data Confirming Hot Particles from Fairewinds Associates on Vimeo.
Hi, I'm Arnie Gundersen from Fairewinds.
It is October 31st, 2011. This is a video that contains scientific information that we have been wanting to share with you for a long time. Today, in Washington D.C. at 8:30 in the morning, scientist Marco Kaltofen gave a presentation to some doctors who are part of the American Public Health Association. The paper is now on our website, next to this video.
To summarize the paper, citizens, some doctors and scientists, some bloggers, some farmers, around the world provided samples to Mr. Kaltofen who analyzed them for Fukushima radiation. An example of what he found is a slide that contains air filters from cars in Japan and in the United States. Cars in the United States hardly have any radiation in their air filters. Cars in Tokyo had quite a lot, way too much. Cars in Fukushima Prefecture were incredibly radioactive.
Now I think it is important because the nuclear industry will say, well everything is radioactive and therefore we should not worry. Well, the Seattle data shows that not everything is radioactive. And it shows that the people in Japan received enormous exposures of particles into their lungs and into their digestive systems, during the course of the accident.
Another piece of information is that Fairewinds viewers were able to send in children's shoes from Japan. Mr. Kaltofen has data that clearly show that the concentration of cesium on the kid's shoelaces was astronomically high, around 80 disintegrations per second. What does that mean? Kids tie their shoes, their hands get radioactive and it goes into their G.I. tract. If it is on the ground, it is in the dust in the playground and it is in their lungs. I think that between the two, the air filters and the children's shoes, it shows that there is a severe personal health problem in Japan that will manifest itself in cancers over the next 10 or 20 years.
Now Mr. Kaltofen did not just look at Japan. He set up monitoring stations in the United States as well. Two of the three monitoring stations in the United States did show hot particles in the air in April. Since then, there have not been any hot particles. But in April, it is clear that, at the worst of the accident, hot particles were wafted across the Pacific and deposited in Seattle and in Boston at least. There is also data that indicates contamination on the ground in the Cascades, which are a mountain range right up against the Pacific Ocean.
So I think we have two problems here. In Japan, there is a personal health issue and what that means is that individuals have received enough radiation that there is going to be a statistically meaningful increase in cancers in Tokyo and especially in Fukushima Prefecture.
In the United States, it is a different story. It is a public health issue and not a personal health issue. What that means is that we will never know who is the individual who got cancer from Fukushima. But we can be sure that the radiation did reach here and that there will be an increase in cancers, especially on the West Coast where the Rocky Mountains stopped most of the radiation and deposited it on the ground.
So, this paper was given to the American Public Health Association. And here it is a public health issue. We cannot run and we cannot hide. But the radiation is up and down the West Coast and then also scattered about the rest of the United States.
In Japan, it is a different story. They need to aggressively go after the contamination that has been discovered. It is so obvious on these air filters and on children's shoes. It takes a concerted national effort, not a haphazard effort of chasing hot spots, in order to reduce the amount of radioactivity that is on the soil and in the air in Japan right now.
And the last thing the paper shows is that it is wrong to have a 10 mile evacuation planning zone. Clearly, the damage can extend out as far as Tokyo. We need to look at emergency planning and evacuations well beyond the 10 miles that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission uses here and the 12 miles that the Japanese used during the accident. You may recall that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said that Americans needed to evacuate 50 miles from Fukushima at the peak of the accident. Well, if it is good enough for Americans living in Japan, that same criteria should be good enough for Americans living in the United States.
The data in Mr. Kaltofen's paper came from citizens. It came from farmers. It came from scientists. It came from bloggers. It was an effort by individuals and not government. I think if we had relied on the government to get us this information, we never would have gotten it. So it is an important achievement for all of us, to recognize that together, using the internet, we can all provide information for scientists to use, to come to rational decisions on public policy.
This November we are asking for your support so we can continue our scientific analysis and these educational videos. There is a donate button on the Fairewinds site and we would appreciate it if you considered a financial contribution.
Thank you very much. We will keep you informed.

With just one month to go until the Republican National Convention at which John McCain will accept his party's nomination for presidential candidate, residents of Minnesota's Twin Cities are bracing themselves for a red, white, and blue tide. A consortium of organizations in the area have organized what they call the UnConvention, an umbrella for the art projects, interventions, and alternative media outlets raining through the region whose four-word mission is simply: "Unscripting the political process." An event like the RNC is a well-oiled machine and efforts by authorities to keep voices of dissent or other visual distractions at bay abound even in mainstream press coverage of this quadrennial event. The UnConvention is a shelter for ideas that veer from this predictable narrative and it uses its website to galvanize collaboration. The Projects page lists information on artist's initiatives--many of which bring street art and situationist theater techniques to new media forms--ranging from the very DIY to the beautiful and highly-choreographed, including Ligorano/Reese's, The State of Things, 2003/2008, an ice sculpture of the word "democracy" intended to melt within 24-hours of its installation; and Sharon Hayes's ambitious Revolutionary Love 2: I am Your Best Fantasy, in which 100 citizens in the cities of both the Republican and Democratic conventions will collaborate with her to "recite in unison a text chosen by Hayes that exemplifies the intersection of history and the construction of the 'queer figure' in the political terrain." The UnConvention also harnesses the web as a platform for participatory democracy. Its site is a bulletin board for spontaneous actions and a headquarters for creative convergence, calling on readers close and far from the Great Lakes to speak their voice. Taking its title from the obligatory statement uttered by candidates at the end ...
In the Mix
Tonight at Exit Art in New York comes a bevy of performances as part of the space's current potpourri-style exhibit Summer Mixtape Volume 1: the Get Smart edition. Critic and artist Nick Stillman will present a slide lecture on "the best art today," accompanied by sounds from noisemakers Knyfe Hyts and artist Corey D'Augustine. But afterwards some mysterious darkly-glowing strangeness will emerge with "A Network of Love," an event by Donna Huanca (aka RUA MINX), the duo of Daniel Keller and Nik Kosmas, better known as AIDS-3D, and dancer Helga Wretman. Hard details are slim, but according to the trio's own statement, expect a futuristic post-apocalyptic scenario in which "the last children of Eve struggle to maintain their digital lifestyles" after "the old systems of power have collapsed." An earlier blurb from Huanca stated that the show may include such items as drum machines, videos, sewing machines, and animals. Exit Art curators promise us there will be lasers involved; we strongly suspect there may also be black lights and phosphorescent paint. What we do know for sure is that Rhizome's own Ceci Moss will be participating in the sonic aspects of the happening, nicely rounding out the inclusion of Rhizome team members Marisa Olson and Tyler Coburn in the exhibit itself. - Ed Halter

Hey, FYI, I will be playing for the first time the COMPLETE Bruce Springsteen Born to Run Glockenspiel Addendum in Brooklyn next week....below is a little bit I wrote about what I am doing.........
In 2006, on a whim, I decided to go uptown to Sam Ash music store, buy a Glockenspiel and record glockenspiel parts for the songs on Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run record that did not already feature that instrument. Most everything I have ever made has been ignited from a similar semi-destructive whim. A certain idea, most often against my better judgment, mixes with my slight OCD, and I can't stop thinking about it until it is completed. Some people count their steps on the way to work...I do this. This project took a few weeks (the glockenspiel turned out a little more difficult to play then it would seem) and eventually ended up as a 12inch vinyl sold off of my website. This release featured just my Glockenspiel playing and a lot of silence in between. The intent was that people were supposed to play my record and the original at the same time. Once I sold out of these I released a FREE mix CD. This featured my Glockenspiel tracks mixed back into Bruce's original. To most people, this second version sounds just like Springsteen. This free CD has been distributed over the past year or so, at galleries, performances, and to friends. Since it is tagged by computers automatically, it has circulated as Springsteen. My thoughts on this version were based on the fact that my own artwork for years had floated around the ...

Putting Participation on the Map
While the internet has enabled new, transnational collaborations in the form of participatory art projects, the challenge with these increasingly popular initiatives is to credit the contributions and individual ideas of artists who might otherwise float lost in the crowdsourced sea. Wooloo Productions has managed to excel at meeting this challenge, while building the logistics of web-based participation into the concept of their works. Wooloo's newest project is Rebranding Acts, "an investigation into cultural identity in an age of global migration." The initiative invites artists from around the world to consider the ways in which "nationality" is manufactured in their home country, and to "rebrand" these concepts, from their own perspective. While the open call is predicated on the argument that such hegemonic nationalist constructions often exclude identities that don't fit the mold, Rebranding Acts invites anyone to add their voice to the discussion by uploading videos of their own public interventions. The best of these videos will be curated into major exhibitions in Prague and New York, later this year. This is not the first of Wooloo Production's projects to deal with national identity. Co-founding artists Sixten Kai Nielsen and Martin Rosengaard gained worldwide notoriety when Defending Denmark, their "international campaign to rebrand the country of Denmark" which documented 18 months of membership in the ultra-right Danish People's Party, was covered on Al Jazeera TV, launching an international discussion about party lines and artist interventions. If you'd like to join the party of people bringing such important projects to life, visit Wooloo.org. - Marisa Olson

Kamen Stoyanov at Manifesta 7
Installing 'Disneylend Express' sign at Rovereto train station
ARC Projects roster artist Kamen Stoyanov has created new artworks for Manifesta 7, taking place in Trentino, Italy, 19 July - 2 November 2008. Stoyanov's work is showing within the context of 'ManifeSTATION' curated by The Office for Cognitive Urbanism.
Migration is a central topic for Stoyanov, whether based on economical, political or personal reasons. If one's attempts at assimilation fail, there remains nothing but a life at the margins of society, excluded and isolated amidst everyday cultural life -- something well known but still foreign. For Manifesta 7, Stoyanov addresses the topic of urban events and art biennials themselves, since they characterize entire cities as cultural territory and thus contain implicit mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion. The cultural homogenization of urban spaces divides the people into those that consume these places and those that have to live in them. The Disneylend Express connects both.

Shelter In Place: Most Classes/Services Online through Fall Semester
The Art History Program offers a course of study for students to learn the subject of art history and how it relates to the study of works of art.
Students enrolled in art history courses learn about the subjects, forms, and purposes of art within each historical period that they study. They learn about the artists, the patrons, and the audiences who viewed the works of art. Students learn to accurately identify and describe art works, as well as to use the principles of art history in their critical writing about art. They also learn about related approaches of visual analysis which reflect changes in the discipline of art history, and which become an additional basis to critical thinking and writing about art.

Bob Bellville was club caller for Western Star Dancers from 19??-??. He authored the call Rock The Boat which became a CALLERLAB quarterly selection. He was a member of Square Dance Callers Association of Northern California (SDCANC) and CALLERLAB, and is believed to be either the first (or one of the first) openly gay member(s) of CALLERLAB. He also may still, even as of present day, be the only openly gay caller to have achieved CALLERLAB Accredited Caller certification.
Bob died in 1990. He is memorialized on the IAGSDC Memorial Panels.
Recollections of Bob collected by Russ King in 2007
Russ King: It was just over a year ago, at the joint Western Star/Foggy City dance last January 7 (2006), that caller Dick Henschel happened to workshop the call Rock The Boat. He didn't know who wrote it, just that it had been a popular CALLERLAB Quarterly Selection back in the '80's, and he thought it would be a fun novelty item to teach.
As it happened, Stewart Kramer of El Camino Reelers and I were already familiar with the call, and had known Bob Bellville, the man who created it. Only the old-timers among us remember Bob and his accomplishments as a gay square dancer and gay caller, but on the occasion of our 25th Anniversary, it seems a good occasion to explain his place in our history, and I've asked Bill Hanzel, his mentor, and Andy Shore, who followed in the trail Bob helped blaze as an openly gay caller, to join me.
Bob learned to square dance at Western Star's fourth Mainstream class, graduating in December 1983; he was Archangel for the next class. He quickly continued on through the Plus and Advanced levels, and was one of the most active members of both Western Star and Midnight Squares throughout the 1980s. His interest in teaching led him to seriously study calling. He didn't have a particularly strong singing voice, and chose instead to concentrate on his forte, devising creative hash choreography. He became Western Star's Mainstream and Plus instructor in the late 1980's, until declining health from AIDS-related causes forced him to cut back. Bob passed away in Spring 1990.
Bob's class was the first Western Star class to be taught by Bill Hanzel, the husband of Janice Hanzel, founder and choreographer of the Barbary Coast Cloggers. Bill had never called for a gay group before, but was willing to give it a try despite the technical difficulties of sight-calling same-sex couples, and the risk of getting flak from his peers (still very much a reality in the early 1980s).
Bill became our primary liaison with the straight square dance community, and also became Bob's mentor, encouraging his interest in calling and helping him through the process of becoming an accredited caller. I've asked Bill (who now lives in Denver, but is planning to fly out and join us in March) to share some of his thoughts about Bob, and here they are, followed by Andy Shore's:
Bill Hanzel: I met Bob when I started teaching for Western Star Dancers. He had an interest in calling, and when I was asked by some members to start a callers class, Bob was a part of it. He would share with me some of the things he was working on and asked questions about making choreography flow comfortably.
He wrote the move Rock The Boat. It was a good call which flowed better than "Load the Boat." CALLERLAB picked up the call and it was put on the Quarterly list of new calls. It stayed there for at least three quarters. Many calls are on the list for one quarter and disappear, but not Rock The Boat.
In 1985, Bob applied to the Square Dance Callers Association of Northern California (SDCANC) and began attending meetings. He learned from many top callers in the Northern California area. He polished his presentation by calling in front of his peers and receiving their critiques and encouragement. After completing his apprenticeship training he was voted a Caller member of SDCANC. Before he got the news, I was able to get his badge from the engraver and made arrangements to present it to him at the 1986 IAGSDC Convention in San Francisco.
Working with his partner Chris Anderson, we decided to give Bob his badge at the convention dinner. When I called Bob to the stage, there was a standing ovation. He became the first openly gay caller in the SDCANC.
Bob and I attended the CALLERLAB convention in Reno in 1988. This was the first time Bob met many of the nationally known callers. He learned much more at Reno, more than he knew. When callers learned that he wrote Rock The Boat, Bob walked a little taller. The acknowledgment from top name callers, was tremendous. I think I saw new pride in Bob that weekend.
The following week, Chris called me and gave me the bad news: Bob was diagnosed with HIV. That was like getting a punch in the gut for me. I know I shed a tear or many for Bob, and I knew I would eventually lose a friend. I kept in touch with Chris when I could, to check up on Bob. The news finally came that Bob had passed and Chris said that Bob wanted me to be a pallbearer. It was a great honor for me.
These are my memories of a good and gracious being, Bob Bellville. I will forever remember him as a friend and colleague. Square dancing will miss the calls that were never written because of his loss. Friends miss the presence of Bob Bellville. I miss not being able to work with him more and learn more from him. Peace Bob
Andy Shore: I learned to square dance with the El Camino Reelers. I was in their 3rd Mainstream class (1986-1987) and our teacher was a big straight guy named Bill Hanzel. I liked Bill, and I thought he was a pretty good teacher and caller, but somehow, as a beginning dancer, I had this notion of "oh – straight people call for us."
This notion was blown away one night when Bill couldn't be at class and arranged for a substitute caller. Bob Bellville, a gay caller from San Francisco, came down with his partner Chris and taught our class that night. I remember being very intrigued with a "wow – we can be on that side of the microphone too" feeling. So I'd have to say that Bob was my earliest inspiration and role model for being a gay square dance caller. A few years later, when I was starting to call, Bob held some calling workshops up in San Francisco. It was great having his insights and just having the opportunity to learn and practice calling.
Bob was an openly gay member of CALLERLAB, the International Association of Square Dance Callers. I believe he is the only openly gay caller to ever achieve the status of a CALLERLAB accredited caller, a rather obscure and rare status. Few callers seem to know of or attempt this these days, but it was a big deal 20 years ago.
Bob was also a member of the Square Dance Callers Association of Northern California, and he wrote the call Rock The Boat as part of his membership application and qualification. Rock The Boat became popular and earned the status of a quarterly selection (an experimental call in wide use) for a time. I still hear it cued today: Ends Load the Boat while the Centers Single Circle to Wave, Fan the Top, and Extend.
Bob was one of the first generation of openly gay square dance callers, whose contributions to the formation and success of the IAGSDC cannot be overestimated.
--Andy Shore, January 2007

San Francisco game maker TinyCo hopes Seth MacFarlane's irreverent animated comedy "Family Guy" proves as popular with mobile device owners as "The Simpsons."
TinyCo's "Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff" goes live Thursday morning in the Apple iTunes store and Google Play, bringing the Griffin family – Peter, Lois, Meg, Chris and Stewie – from the Emmy-winning Fox TV show to an even smaller screen.
This is a big project for TinyCo., best known until now for games like "Spellstorm" and "Tiny Castle." The game maker is hoping for the same kind of success Electronic Arts had with a mobile game based on Fox's other hit animated series – "The Simpsons: Tapped Out" has generated more than $105 million for EA since its debut in 2012.
Like "Simpsons," "Family Guy" is free to download and play, but includes in-game purchases for content such as special outfits. (At some point, you can be Mermaid Peter.)
Writers from the show collaborated with the game makers on a title TinyCo hopes people will play in short bursts while "on the bus, on the toilet, on their commute, etc.," and maybe not necessarily in that order. There's also an in-game social network called "FaceSpace."
"Not only is the game exponentially more entertaining than reading this press release, it's the only place you'll find Peter and Quagmire napping together," Fox Digital Entertainment executive Rick Phillips said in a press release.
TinyCo raised $20 million in financing in November from Pinnacle Ventures and early investor Andressen Horowitz.
You can see a glimpse of the game in the video posted above as Peter faces his long-time arch-nemesis.

2 arrested in deadly Canada cyberbullying case
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia — Police in Canada said Thursday they have made two arrests in the cyberbullying case of a 17-year-old who died after a photo of her allegedly being sexually assaulted was shared online.
The death of Rehtaeh Parsons, who was taken off life support after a suicide attempt in April, led to an outcry. Police initially concluded there were no grounds to charge anyone after a yearlong investigation.
Her mother said a boy took a photo of the alleged assault in 2011 and that her daughter was bullied for months after it went viral.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police Cpl. Scott MacRae said they arrested two males Thursday. Investigators said they were being questioned and that no further information would be released at this time. MacRae declined to say what they were arrested for or whether charges are expected.
"Due to the sensitive nature around this investigation, the investigators do want to ensure that no court process is affected," MacRae said.
He noted that police have a 24-hour window to either release the two males or lay criminal charges.
Police in April said a person provided new information in the Parsons case and was willing to verify who the suspects are.
"We're just hopeful there's charges laid and others to arrest, hoping that they're finally willing to tell their side of the story," Leah Parsons, Rehtaeh's mother, said.
"A sense of relief came over me that at least they're going to be questioned."
Prime Minister Stephen Harper applauded the arrests and said Rehtaeh's death was a terrible tragedy that touched people across Canada.
"I just want to say how pleased we are that progress has been made. I hope this will provide some measure of comfort to family members," Harper said.
Rehtaeh's death has been compared to similar cases in the United States, including a 15-year-old California girl who killed herself after her family says she was sexually assaulted by friends and a photo surfaced online. Arrests were made in that case of Audrie Pott, who hanged herself in September.
Rehtaeh's death prompted the Nova Scotia government to launch reviews of the RCMP's original investigation and the school board's handling of the matter. The review of the RCMP's investigation is ongoing.
An independent review released in June concluded the Halifax Regional School Board could have done a better job, but it was hindered by the fact that Rehtaeh was often absent from class. The report also said the Parsons family faced challenges when they turned to Nova Scotia's mental health system for help.
The arrests come a day after a new law took effect in the province that allows people to sue if they or their children are being cyberbullied. Victims also can seek a protection order that could place restrictions on or help identify the cyberbully.
Justice Minister Ross Landry introduced the legislation weeks after Rehtaeh's death.

U.S. Ski Team sends strong message in early season
The U.S. Alpine Ski Team has had a record eight athletes reach the World Cup podium for the first time in history. The U.S. Cross Country Ski Team, led by W.C. sprint leader Kikkan Randall, has established itself on the World Cup circuit, earning podiums every weekend of the season including Randall's win to open last weekend's 7-stage Tour de Ski.
Seventeen-year-old Mikaela Shiffrin claimed her first World Cup win, becoming the third-youngest American skier to do so, and wore the Audi FIS World Cup slalom leader's bib into last weekend's Semmering slalom. Ted Ligety continues to establish incredible victory margins, leading the World Cup standings in giant slalom. Heather McPhie kicked off the freestyle season with back-to-back victories and the World Cup lead. Seth Wescott has been lighting up the snowboardcross world while freeskiers and snowboarders lit up early World Cups and the Dew Tour with wins.
Talk about depth: In all, 32 different athletes have been on the podium, including 20 who have won.
Kikkan Randall skied a powerful 3k freestyle prologue Dec. 29 to take a solid win in the first stage of the Tour de Ski, a grueling seven-stage race covering five venues in three countries.
After Sunday's 9k classic, Randall sat in 14th going into Tuesday's New Year's Day freestyle sprint, which she won along with Finn Haagen Krogh of Norway. Randall finished more than 50 meters ahead of Ingvild Flugstad Oestberg of Norway. Another Norwegian, Heidi Weng, was third.
In the men's race, Haagen Krogh was followed by Italy's Federico Pellegrino and Canada's Len Valjas at the third stage of the Tour de Ski. Valjas is the first Canadian cross-country skier to reach the men's podium this season.
On Thursday, Olympic champion Petter Northug, Jr. of Norway took the overall lead after winning the day's 35-kilometer free pursuit cross-country race. Northug finished second overall three of the past four years and is seeking to become the first Norwegian to win the weeklong event. He holds a 5.7-second lead.
In the 15-kilometer women's race, three-time defending champion Justyna Kowalczyk of Poland won in 37:15.1. Charlotte Kalla of Sweden was second, 18.3 seconds behind and Therese Johaug of Norway was third.
The race ends Sunday with the traditional climb up Mount Cermis in Val di Fiemme.
At the U.S. Cross Country Ski Championships on the Olympic trails at Soldier Hollow Resort, Utah, Torin Koos landed a much-anticipated seventh U.S. sprint title while Jennie Bender had her first U.S. title after winning an intense sprint to the finish over U.S. SKi Team member Sadie Bjornsen. Bender is a University of Vermont graduate now skiing for CXC Elite. More than 430 athletes from around the country are in Soldier Hollow for four days of racing during an eight-day period lasting through Tuesday.
A week after winning the first World Cup of her career, Shiffrin posted a personal best eighth in a rugged giant slalom in Semmering, Austria, last weekend. The finish vaulted her to 10th in the overall standings. Travis Ganong produced a gutsy run of downhill on one of the most gnarly tracks on tour to post a career best seventh in Bormio, Italy. Shiffrin then moved on to Munich along with Julia Mancuso and Ligety for the New Year's Day city event.
The nighttime parallel slalom featured head-to-head racing on a shortened course at the Munich Olympic Park with both World Cup slalom and overall points on the line. None of the three Americans – Ligety, Shiffrin and Mancuso – made it past the quarterfinals at Olympic Park.
Meanwhile, Felix Neureuther of Germany rode the support of the home crowd Tuesday to win a WC parallel slalom. Veronika Velez Zuzulova of Slovakia upset overall WC leader Tina Maze of Slovenia to win the women's race, her second straight World Cup victory.
With only two weeks under its belt, the U.S. Freestyle Team has earned eight total podiums. The next stop for the aerials team is Changchun, China, on Saturday before athletes meet up with the moguls team for the first domestic World Cup of the season, the USANA Lake Placid Freestyle Cup on Jan. 17.
The U.S. Nordic Combined Ski Team and ski jumping team will participate in two World Cups in Schonach, Germany, with a team event and normal hill Gundersen Saturday and Sunday.

Since Ethan was born, our family has taken a picture every year on Easter morning at church.
Most people know my affinity for matching the boys. It is getting harder and harder to do that, now that Colin and Cameron are growing and into the bigger sizes, but we still manage on some things--like coats, jackets, and occasionally shirts! Easter is no exception.
I love (love love) to coordinate our outfits on Easter!
I am kind of a Nazi about it. I get all worked up over it. I shop and shop and shop and shop to find the right things. I drive Shane absolutely semi-crazy in the process.
Suffice it to say that I get really excited about this process! Not just for the boys' outfits, but for Shane's, and mine, and now Lolee girl's, too.
Especially Lolee girl's. *grin*
Oh, and notice I said, coordinate--it would be impossible to match, but I love to at least aim for the same color family every year! It's made for some great family shots. I thought it would be fun to take a look back over the last four years. . . .
. . . . aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand now I'm sobbing.
Cameron, 17 months; Colin: 3 years; Ethan, 2 months
Colin, 4 years; Cameron, 2 years; Ethan, 14 months
{My favorite picture--for so many reasons!}
Cameron, 4 years; Lola Claire, 2 months;
Colin, 6 years; Ethan, 3 years

Hello Good People who read this blog
After my last personal review of what happened, here is the story behind what really went on.
This is what I have been told, I cannot certify that it is true.
It is rumoured that : "The Pleasure Gardens run by the Shangri-la people were rented from Newham Council . The council lent them some of the money to pay them rent for the land.
What they didn't mention before then was that there was asbestos on the site. Newham Council rented the land out knowing that there was asbestos there beforehand but did not remove it.The Shangri-la people then had to find another million or so pounds to have the asbestos removed from the site themselves.
This delayed the renovations of the main venue on the site , an old warehouse, which was not fixed in time for the big opening the previous weekend .It is currently still covered up and has scaffolding around it. They also did not decorate the site and were unable to do other works beforehand, and a whole part of the site was closed off leaving less room.
The Bloc festival people , who are separate from the Shangri-la people, sold tickets on the basis that they were running a festival on the entire site including the warehouse. The capacity of the entire site with the warehouse renovated would have been 15 000, the event sold out, but the warehouse with an estimated capacity of 5000 people was still out of bounds.
The main venue then became a circus tent placed in a corner of the festival not far from another big tent where Steve Reich played, and the ship. But putting up a circus tent meant there was less land available as free space for people to circulate, land surrounded by deep water, the festival being situated at a dockside.
The layout was poorly thought out in terms of people circulating from one venue to another, so that there was not enough room."
I also heard that later "there was a confrontation between the crowd locked outside and the police and that cement blocks were thrown. (I cannot certify that this is true!)
"Also both the Pleasure Gardens and the Bloc Festival have gone bust."
Ok well that's the end of the rumour, it still leaves many unanswered questions for me such as why they were not letting people into venues while the acts were on and leaving us to queue outside when the tents were virtually empty , thereby creating a crowd outside, why no one could help me find the exit etc..
Got to go now…please see my previous post for a more embellished poetic version of my experiences.
Love and Peace

I phoned a local hunter, who then contacted the owners: two brothers from a neighboring village. Twenty minutes later, they arrived at Gamone. Everybody was happy. The joyful hunters and their lost hound were reunited. Meanwhile, the dog and I had become friends, no doubt because it had food in its belly. Even Sophia, stretched out in her big wicker basket in the warm kitchen, was relieved to find this unseemly intrusion being brought to an end.
Yesterday evening, another happy dog story unfolded on French TV. Host Michel Drucker was conducting a show with the immensely popular ex-president Jacques Chirac, celebrating his 77th birthday.
The idea of giving him a dog had emanated from several people in Chirac's circle of family and friends, including his wife Bernadette.

Money-meets-Hollywood list-maker extraordinaire Forbes has released their 2013 list of the most overpaid actors — and this year the booby prize goes to Adam Sandler.
As Forbes points out, Sandler is part of a shrinking roster of stars who command huge paychecks for every project, but the movies that helped set those pay quotes don't always justify the money. For Sandler, the most prominent examples of that wasted money are Jack & Jill and That's My Boy. "We estimate that for every dollar Sandler was paid on his last three movies, the films returned an average of $3.40," Forbes' Dorothy Pomerantz writes.
Here's who rounded out the rest of the top 10:
- Katherine Heigl
- Reese Witherspoon
- Nicholas Cage
- Kevin James
- Denzel Washington
- Steve Carell
- Jennifer Aniston
- Matt Damon
- Ryan Reynolds
Of all the lists that Forbes releases, this is perhaps the one that is hardest to draw on for a big-picture meditation about Hollywood. The list only accounts for pay, expenses and profits, so actors who may boost prestige (Matt Damon, for example) may be worth something intangible that's not factored into the equation. The list contains a mix of genders and a mix of comedy- and action-stars; and it's also a ratio of pay-to-return, which means not-quite-as-expensive stars can make the list. So, unlike the publication's lists of top-earning stars or a list of top-earning movies, it doesn't necessarily mean that, say, women are underpaid or that studios depend too much on action. The only big take-away, then, is a basic of most economic markets: past performance does not guarantee future results.
And in the end Adam Sandler himself provides a great example of that truth. The Forbes list looks at three years worth of work, but their master ranking of earnings is put together over the summer, which means that the three-year period ended June 1, 2013. That was just a few weeks before Sandler (and Kevin James) appeared in Grown Ups 2, a movie that has grossed nearly $247 million worldwide — which just might keep Sandler off of next year's list.

The White Sox do not figure to become outright sellers, not when they're only 3 1/2 games out of first place in the AL Central. But owner Jerry Reinsdorf wants to trim payroll, according to a major-league source.
So, while the White Sox aren't about to dust off their dreaded "white flag," Williams could seek to make deals that lower the payroll while keeping the team competitive for a post-season run.
The Sox went "all-in" this season, increasing their Opening Day payroll to a club-record $127.7 million, the fifth-highest in the majors. However, the team ranks only 19th in home attendance, and their average is down more than 2,000 from a year ago, dropping from 27,091 to 24,647.
Those numbers hint at financial pressure, and the White Sox possibly could move two players – right-hander Edwin Jackson ($8.35 million) and right fielder Carlos Quentin ($5.05 million) without greatly compromising their chances. …
Other White Sox trade links:
- Alejandro De Aza was pulled in the top of the 1st inning of Charlotte's game today. Will he come up? Will he be traded? Brett Ballantini takes a look, and J.J. puts odds on the various scenarios. UPDATE #2: De Aza was called up and played CF instead of Alex Rios, who was benched.
- James looks back at Kenny Williams' buy/sell moves in the previous years.
- Mike has a hard time believing that Kenny Williams will conduct a fire sale.
- Joe Pawlikowski at Fangraphs wonders 'What Would A White Sox Fire Sale Look Like?' and 'Should/Would The White Sox Do A Fire Sale?'
- And a couple "scouting" tweets: the Phillies are scouting Carlos Quentin in case the Sox decide to move him, while the Sox are spending a lot of time scouting the [minor-league] systems of the Yankees, the Red Sox and the Phillies.
UPDATE: Kenny's answer to Rosenthal's report:
"We should just get to the Trade Deadline and where we are, what we do, what we may do, all these questions will be answered," Williams said. "And let's go from there. We'll see how we do this week."When asked if there were any untouchables on his roster, Williams smiled and reiterated, "Let's see how we do this week."

Ellington Darden, Ph.D.
Born in the 1940s: The WHY of My Deeds by Ellington Darden, Ph.D.
My oldest daughter, who is 21, recently e-mailed me a document that described some of the characteristics of individuals born in the 1940s. Since my birth year was 1943, most of them are meaningful to me — especially since my wife and I have two children less than 5 years of age. Here are the traits:
After experiencing most of the above situations, I became interested in strength training in 1958. Looking back, I understand now why I responded well to basic exercises and simple routines.
For the first six months, my routines consisted of the following exercises, all of which were performed three times a week with a barbell:
Squat Pullover Calf raise Deadlift Overhead press Shoulder shrug Bench press Rowing Triceps extension Biceps curl
I worked up to doing three sets of each exercise with various repetition schemes: 1-3, 4-7, and 8-12. My results were gradual and steady. I gained about 15 pounds of body weight.
I then added other exercises to supplement the basic ones, including those performed with dumbbells. In three years, when I graduated from high school, I weighed 200 pounds — which was sort of my goal, when I began four years earlier at a body weight of 135 pounds.
In 1962 I went to college at Baylor University for five years, and then to Florida State University for four years. During that time, I tried all the available training methods and techniques. My best results, however, occurred when I returned to the basic routines.
When I met Arthur Jones in 1970, he reinforced that indeed the basics were beneficial. But Jones had taken the basics and clarified them in ways I had not thought much about. He defined intensity, form, and progression — and discussed how important they were. Then, he said that without a clear understanding of duration and frequency, you couldn't appreciate fully the first three.
Intensity, form, and progression, Jones believed, stimulated your muscles to grow. Keeping your routine brief in duration and frequency permitted muscular growth to occur unimpeded by inadequate recovery ability.
Instead of taking four years to achieve a body weight of 200 pounds, Jones said I should have done so, at most, in half that time. The key, he said, was to train harder, but briefer.
Jones philosophy made sense to me. After working closely with him for more than 30 years, it still does.
Have you ever thought about . . . WHY you tend to do what you do, repeatedly?
A friend, who is an authority in the Myers-Briggs Personality Typing, recently gave me the written version of this well-known system. I had taken the same test a dozen years earlier and was able to compare the evaluations now, with what they were then. My responses were generally the same, so little had changed.
I'm classified as a "Logical Assimilator," someone who communicates in a straightforward, practical, and efficient manner. I focus on facts, details, and results. I'm achievement motivated.
It appears that many logical assimilators emerged from the similarity of childhood experiences during the 1940s and 1950s. A number of my childhood buddies fall into the same category. We are typed as honest, reliable, determined, persistent, and loyal — sometimes to a fault.
Those traits allowed me to work productively with Arthur Jones. As an outcome, I fostered an allegiance to Jones, Nautilus, and HIT that goes beyond normal comprehension.
I long for the uncomplicated days of the 1950s through the 1970s — the basic training routines and the solid results of hard work and perseverance — without all the modern amenities.
I think I'll Google a few of my first workout partners, scan some of my vintage photos, and e-mail them . . . so we can reminisce!

Bucks lose to Bulls 81-72
Milwaukee's 8th straight loss to Chicago at Bradley Center
Carlos Boozer had 19 points and 13 rebounds in his first game back from a right knee injury, Mike Dunleavy Jr. added 18 points and the Chicago Bulls beat the Milwaukee Bucks 81-72 on Friday night.
Taj Gibson added 12 points at the Bradley Center, where a healthy sprinkling of Bulls fans wearing red celebrated the team's fourth straight win.
They almost watched Chicago waste a 15-point lead. The Bucks opened the fourth quarter with a 7-0 run to get to within three. A long jumper from Ersan Ilyasova (14 points) got the Bucks to 71-70 with 5:42 left.
But the Bulls hung on, even after Boozer missed two foul shots with 3:42 left with his team up by three. The Bucks missed their final 11 shots.
The Bucks failed to make a shot after Brandon Knight's bucket with 5:09 left.
They missed two opportunities to tie it after Knight (12 points) and O.J. Mayo (16 points) misfired on open 3s on back-to-back possessions with under 3:30 left.
Dunleavy answered with an off-balance layup to get the lead back to 77-72, then hit two foul shots to get to a seven-point lead with about 1 minute left.
After a slow start, Chicago gained traction in the third behind the bullish Boozer. He grabbed eight rebounds alone in the quarter and didn't look bothered by the sore right knee that kept him out two games.
Larry Sanders finished with one point and nine boards before fouling out with 1:16 left in the game. He was in foul trouble most of the night in large part due to the active Boozer.
At one point in the Bucks' troublesome third quarter, Sanders and Boozer got tangled up under the bucket battling for a rebound. Sanders got whistled for a technical foul and went to the bench, while Boozer smiled and appeared to walk nearby as if to try to goad the young Buck into making another bad move.
Boozer was just as much of a handful with the ball. He rebounded a missed 3 and saved the possession just before landing out of bounds.
Chicago whipped the ball around the perimeter and Jimmy Butler (10 points) hit a 3 from the wing to make it 59-47 with about 6:50 left in the third.
The energy and offensive rhythm that Milwaukee had in building a seven-point lead after the first quarter disappeared in the third before re-emerging to start the fourth.
But once again, the NBA-worst Bucks (7-28) fell short trying to rebound from a second-half deficit.
Foul shooting and the long-range touch of former Dunleavy, who went 3 for 3 from 3-point territory in the second quarter, helped the Bulls turn a 27-20 deficit in the first quarter into a 47-45 halftime lead. Boozer had 15 first-half points and went 7 of 8 from the foul line.
Milwaukee had more fouls (20) than field goals (18) at the half, with three starters each with three fouls.
NOTES: Chicago dressed newly-acquired forward Cartier Martin, signed to a 10-day contract Friday. Martin was waived this week by the Atlanta Hawks. ... Asked if he spoken to injured guard Derrick Rose since the trade this week of Luol Deng, coach Tom Thibodeau said the two talked about the team in general all the time. "Derrick's good. Derrick's good. He's locked into his rehab, dealing with things as he should be." Rose is out for the year with a right knee injury. ... Bucks C John Henson, who missed his sixth straight game with a sprained left ankle, is expected to join the team on a two-game road trip to Oklahoma City and Toronto. Henson leads the team in rebounding (8.0 per game) and blocks (2.3).

Essex 159 for 3 (Ryder 51, Westley 44) beat Glamorgan 157 for 2 (Goodwin 71, Rudolph 60*) by seven wickets
Hard-hitting Jesse Ryder scored a quickfire half-century to help Essex seal a home tie in the NatWest T20 Blast quarter-finals with a seven-wicket win over Glamorgan at Cardiff.
After winning the toss the in-form South Group leaders restricted the home side to 157 for 2 before knocking off the required runs with 12 balls to spare. It was a comprehensive defeat for the Welsh county who could yet need to beat Gloucestershire in their final game next week to make the last eight.
After being put in to bat on a slow pitch Glamorgan looked to have posted a useful total with Murray Goodwin, who made 71, and Jacques Rudolph, 60, putting on 104 in 11.2 overs.
But Glamorgan were undone by the start from Ryder and Mark Pettini who made a dent in their chase by reaching 73 from the opening 33 balls. Tom Westley, with 44, and Ravi Bopara, an unbeaten 32, shared in a 60-run partnership for the third wicket to help Essex across the winning line.
After a slow start Glamorgan reached 43 for 0 at the end of the six overs of the Powerplay. But on a typically slow Cardiff pitch the openers struggled to reach the boundary rope for 22 balls before captain Jim Allenby was caught and bowled by Bopara to leave Glamorgan 53 for one in the ninth over.
Glamorgan had only reached 61 for 1 at the halfway stage but Goodwin, who was promoted up the order, gave the innings some impetus by hitting Ryder for a six baseball style back over the bowler's head.
Goodwin reverse-swept spinner Tim Phillips for four which brought up the 100 before hitting the offspinner over midwicket for six. The former Sussex man continued to accelerate the Glamorgan score striking Bopara for three consecutive fours, while Rudolph, who dropped anchor, reached his 50 off 45 balls.
Goodwin followed Rudolph with his 50 from 29 balls and struck a straight six from the penultimate ball before holing out of the final delivery of the innings.
But Goodwin and Rudolph's good work was undone as Essex made a flying start to their reply. Ryder did not hold back as he swept Michael Hogan for six and then struck Andrew Salter over long on. Ryder struck three consecutive fours off Hogan as 19 came from the fifth over.
Pettini was caught at mid-off off Allenby but it mattered little to Essex who got to more than halfway to their total with 13.2 overs remaining. Ryder holed out to Salter for 51, which came from only 28 balls with two sixes and six fours, but Essex's strong batting line-up was always too good for their hosts.

That's a Melky Cabrera century, folks. In cricket, when a batsman scores 100 runs in an innings, they call it a "century." I've appropriated the term for our very own Milk Man, who banged out three more last night to reach and pass the 100 mark. He now has 101 hits in 66 games played (69 for the team). With 93 games remaining, he has an excellent chance of cracking 200, a "double century." Melky has 294 PA so far--last year he had 706 in 155 games. Assuming he stays healthy and plays in, say, 90 more games, and averages 4.5 PA/G, that's 405 more plate appearances. He "only" hit .305 last season and got 201 hits. He's hitting .369 right now! Let's say he gets 350 more AB and hits .300 the rest of the way, that's still 105 hits. The SF record for hits in a season is 208 by Willie Mays in 1958, the team's first season on the west coast. Rich Aurilia had 206 in 2001 had Bobby Bonds 200 in 1970. El Hombre Leche has a shot at a club record--that's damn impressive.
I liked the trade when it happened. I understood the risk of letting a guy like Jonathan Sanchez go--lefties who miss bats like he does are rare animals. But the Brian Trust thought he'd peaked out, were worried about his injuries, and felt that the emergence of both Madison Bumgarner and Ryan Vogelsong made him expendable. They were right. JS has been hurt and only managed 36-1/3 IP this season. He's also averaging more walks per nine (6.9) than strikeouts (6.2). His 2010 season was truly great, and he will forever have a place in my heart for being part of that magical run. But Sabes and Co. made a smart move to bolster the outfield and pulled off one of their best trades ever. I did not expect Cabrera to lead the league in anything, but I figured at age 27 and coming off an excellent season he was the right guy at the right time and would be a good ballplayer. Yeah, I think he's all that. He's a free agent after this year--if he keeps on doing what he's doing the Giants will find it hard not to throw a big wad o'dough his way.
p.s. Seems like good news re Jerome Williams.

Maybe since Zito is back to being Zito, Lincecum can go back to being Lincecum.

Zito has always been Zito. He's as consistent as they come. Throws a few good games, then a bunch of lousy ones, then a few good games, then a bunch of lousy ones, etc. No different from 2011, 2010, 2009, . . .
Tim, on the other hand, has gone from the best in the league to very good to Barry Zito. Yikes. Not a good trend. I, for one, think it is reversible. He's still young and still has "the stuff." He may never be a 7 WAR player again, but that doesn't mean he can't be a stud.

Prostate cancer in younger patients is triggered by a different mechanism than in older men
New model of tumour development in young men with prostate cancer

In a nutshell:
Depending on the age of the patient, prostate cancer can be caused by two different mechanisms
The mechanism leading to prostate cancer in younger patients is triggered by androgen hormones and induces important rearrangements in the genome of the tumour
Understanding how prostate cancer is triggered in younger men could have widespread clinical consequences for diagnosis and treatment
While prostate cancer is the most common cancer in elderly Western men it also, but more rarely, strikes patients aged between 35 and 50. Scientists at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, Germany, in collaboration with several other research teams in Germany*, have discovered that such early-onset prostate cancers are triggered by a different mechanism from that which causes the disease at a later age. Their findings are published today in Cancer Cell, and might have important consequences for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer in younger patients.
The researchers compared the genomes of 11 early-onset tumours with 7 late-onset tumours and observed marked differences at the molecular level. The genomes of early-onset prostate tumours undergo a relatively small number of changes compared to tumours that develop in older patients.
However, this small number of events leads to crucial exchanges of DNA between chromosomes, causing genes that are normally independent to become tightly linked (known as 'fusion genes'). Many of the genes affected by these rearrangements are usually activated by androgen hormones, such as testosterone. Through these rearrangements they become connected to cancer genes, resulting in fusion genes that can be activated by androgen hormones, so that otherwise inactive genes with the potential to cause cancer are now switched on.
"Prostate cancer in young patients appears to be specifically triggered by androgens and to involve genetic alterations that distinguish this cancer from prostate tumours in older patients," explains Jan Korbel, who led the study at EMBL. "We also measured the levels of androgen receptors in a large cohort of patients from Hamburg, and found data consistent with our initial genomic analysis."
Younger patients with prostate cancer tend to have higher levels of androgen hormone receptors than older patients with the same disease. This could be a natural effect, because the level of these hormones decreases in men older than 50. But it supports the researchers' conclusion that androgens might trigger the mechanism leading to prostate cancer in younger patients, and not in older ones.
Further research is needed to provide the scientific and medical community with more details, particularly regarding the medical impact of testosterone levels in men. However, in the future these findings may have widespread clinical consequences. "We hope that our findings on the cause of the disease will promote the development of new strategies to diagnose, prevent, and even individually treat this cancer," explains Thorsten Schlomm from the Martini Klinik at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE).
* This study is a part of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) project. In addition to EMBL, it involves the Martini-Klinik and the University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf, both in Hamburg, the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) in Heidelberg, and the Max-Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin, all in Germany.

Integrative genomic analyses reveal androgen-driven somatic alteration landscape in early-onset prostate cancer - Joachim Weischenfeldt, et al. - Advanced online publication in Cancer Cell on 11 February, 2013 - DOI:10.1016/j.ccr.2013.01.002
Article Abstract
Early-onset prostate cancer (EO-PCA) represents the earliest clinical manifestation of prostate cancer. To compare the genomic alteration landscapes of EO-PCA with "classical" (elderly-onset) PCA, we performed deep sequencing-based genomics analyses in eleven tumors diagnosed at young age, and pursued comparative assessments with seven elderly-onset PCA genomes. Remarkable age-related differences in structural rearrangement (SR) formation became evident, suggesting distinct disease pathomechanisms. Whereas EO-PCAs harbored a prevalence of balanced SRs, with a specific abundance of androgen-regulated ETS gene fusions including TMPRSS2:ERG, elderly-onset PCAs displayed primarily non-androgen-associated SRs. Data from a validation cohort of >10,000 patients showed age-dependent androgen receptor levels and a prevalence of SRs affecting androgen-regulated genes, further substantiating the activity of a characteristic "androgen-type" pathomechanism in EO-PCA.

Ya'll I'm so crazy! We tried a free Kindermusik class today with our MOPS group and it was a HUGE BLAST!!!! Kinsley absolutely LOVED it after she observed shyly for a little while:) She was so cute that I had to MAKE myself not cry - you know, those "she's so cute and sweet, it makes me so happy" tears! I was so embarrassed that I almost cried - but I fought the tears back!!! Go me! If you haven't tried Kindermusik I highly recommend it. We've been once before with my sister and baby Kai and it is just such a sweet bonding time to have with your child. Such delight!!!!
Kinsley with her rhythm sticks!
I'm not sure what these are called but aren't they cute?!
Winkin' at me! It cracks me up that she has to do her mouth like this when she winks!
Some of the MOPS group enjoying themselves - Kins and me are in the center - my friend Angie and her little girl Sarah are on the right.
Rhythm sticks!

Doug made a slide show of Baby Gray and posted it on his blog, but we couldn't figure out how to share the link. So I made it again in iMovie and changed it up a bit.
For example, I included video footage of myself giving birth. Very brave of me I think. So if you don't want to see a side view of my nekkid swollen leg, don't watch. (Don't worry too much. It only shows my leg. Nothing else.)
About the music: The song I used is called "Baby Don't You Cry (The Pie Song)" by Quincy Coleman and Andrew Hollander. It comes from the movie "The Waitress" and Gabe insists that I sing it to him every single night. It's definitely a family favorite in the lullaby department. (And in case you've lived your entire life under a rock, the second song is "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong)

The Spring Standards
Skyflight Productions presents The Spring Standards on Friday February 1, 2013 at The Albert S George Youth Center at Barnesville Memorial Park in Barnesville, OH. The Spring Standards have been told many things about their music since their start in 2008 - it makes people feel warm inside, it touches painful places. It's simple and sweet yet dark and utterly confusing. They've been called folk, p
op, rock, Americana, indie and everything in between - sometimes all over the course of a 45-minute set. In spi
te of this, The Spring Standards are far from a band in the midst of an identity crisis. They are no trend-chasers or bandwagon riders. They are honest-to-goodness troubadours who let their music guide them, dutifully following wherever it might lead.
For 3 kids who grew up together in the woods and creeks of the Delaware/Pennsylvania border, their shared memories take them down winding back roads to starry open fields on quiet summer nights. They learned James Taylor covers in their parent's garage and played small side stages at local folk festivals while other kids their age were doing way cooler things. Their love of music was the tie that always bound them to each-other, and making it together quickly became the lifeblood of their friendship. It's that connection that has carried them through ups and downs, in and out of one another's lives over the years and miles, to this moment in Brooklyn, NY as they prepare their third independent release.
The Spring Standards are taking more risks than ever before with their new album, a double EP entitled yellow // gold. In it, the band explores the two contrasting sides of their musical identity.
yellow is a 7-song disc filled with warmth and melancholy, with tunes that tell stories of hope in the face of longing and loss. It harkens back to their roots, drawing inspiration from the music they grew up with and those things that first drew them together - the simple magic of voices raised in harmony, the beauty of acoustic instruments.
gold is a 5-song battle cry from some dark secret place, full of frustration and excitement, tension and relief. These songs invoke urban landscapes and dingy rock clubs, long stretches of deserted highways from Orlando to Seattle, the honking horns and screeching trains of New York City. They are pulsing and frantic, desperate to be heard and understood.
When juxtaposed, these two Eps capture the energy of a band in a moment of significant growth and self-realization. A band that's not afraid to throw out expectation and follow their instincts into uncharted waters, trusting that their beloved listeners will take the leap of faith along with them. And that faith is well-founded, given that this is the second fully fan-funded album The Spring Standards have released. The support they've received from their growing fan base has allowed them to stay fully independent, an invaluable gift that encourages them to take risks and continue growing well beyond their comfort zone. They fully embrace the symbiotic nature of that relationship, and cherish the unique connection they've been able to cultivate with fans near and far.
yellow // gold was recorded over the course of 2011 at Sounds Like a Fire Studio in Ditmas Park, Brooklyn. It features some of Brooklyn's finest and a lot of delicious food was eaten during its creation.

"While we are moving out on the initial 70-metric-ton configuration of the vehicle, we will continue to examine concepts, designs and options that will advance the rocket to a 130-metric-ton vehicle, which is essential for deep space exploration," said Todd May, SLS program manager at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. "Competitive opportunities like this research announcement ensure we deliver a safe, affordable, sustainable launch system."
The proposal selections are the first step in the NRA procurement process. The period of performance for these awards will be one year with as many as two one-year options. The second step, formal contract awards, will follow further negotiations between NASA and selected organizations.
All proposals will be valid for 12 months to allow for a later award if the opportunity becomes available, unless the offeror withdraws the proposal prior to award. Successful offerors to this NRA will not be guaranteed an award for any future advanced development acquisition.
The first flight test of NASA's SLS, which will feature a configuration for a 77 ton (70-metric-ton) lift capacity, is scheduled for 2017 from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Plague Inc. Cheats :
Unlockable - 3 Cheat Plague Types
The 3 cheat plague types are the ultimate reward for the most experienced and highly strategic players. They allow for these players to "play" around with the world through the several cheats available. Unfortunately, only one type of cheat can be activated at any one time. The cheat plague types cannot evolve any special abilities of the 7 standard plague types (In order, Bacteria, Virus, Fungus, Parasite, Prion, Nano-Virus, Bio-Weapon) or the Neurax Worm. The cheat plague types will evolve transmission traits and symptoms identical to the 7 standard plague types. Here is the breakdown of what each cheat plague type do. Immune Plague - Your Plague cannot be cured; Cure research progress stops at 99%. Hidden Plague - Governments of nations are unable to take actions to stop the plague in any way; This means governments cannot prevent the transmission of your plague. Unlimited Plague - You will start the game with 2,000 DNA points, which is enough to evolve every single trait, be it transmission, symptoms or abilities.

Who goes by the name of Klyneal.
http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyat ... qus_thread
I have - as I told him - ended the conversation. Since (a) his accusations against me are false but he still calls me a liar when I tell him so and (b) he appears to be trying to bait me - a perfect example of the Christian hatred displayed by certain professing Christians in the US of A. (I see that he has been unusually combative throughout the thread ie not just towards me; he acts like he has infallible ability to be able to judge the history and the thoughts of people he has never met - which is either arrogant or foolish or both.)
Even though you know little about me (I can't prove that I own an NIV Bible or once attended Westminster Chapel and C of E churches) you will probably seriously question what your eyes are telling you if you read Klyneal's comments (he hasn't come back since I told him "'I'm not going to waste any more time conversing with a bigot who either can't tell fact from fiction or is lying that he does not believe me").

Remember that time in junior high when you used the old "cramps" excuse to avoid running the mile in gym class? Well, a New Zealand woman recently took it to the next level when she lied to police, telling them she was in labor. The woman was sitting shotgun in a car traveling at 146 km/h (90 mph), speeding around corners toward oncoming traffic and ignoring police signals to pull over. Officers responded to the pregnancy plea by cordoning off part of the road and rushing the woman to the hospital in an ambulance. Upon arrival at the hospital the woman, who was 7 months pregnant, promptly discharged herself and hopped in a waiting car that sped off into the night. Like a boss.
Police Sergeant Mark Holmes believes the woman was "using her pregnancy as a smokescreen to give some justification for the driver's actions," and finds it "disappointing that someone would use their condition like that to their advantage."
Although the driver was reckless (he ended up getting fined anyway) and this woman was irresponsible, when you think about all the disadvantages pregnant women face (job discrimination, morning sickness, no roller coasters...) it's a little bit awesome to hear about a baby bump coming in handy.
