Amanda Palmer made headlines and smashed donation records with her Kickstarter-financed LP
Theatre Is Evil
. But does the album build upon her burgeoning reputation as a force to be reckoned with in the industry or fall flat? 411's Jeremy Thomas checks in with his full review!

There are many music fans today who lament the state of pop music. In a genre dominated by the financially-driven need to insert as many radio-friendly beats and chart-topping hooks as possible, the genre is often criticized for lacking any real sense of artistry anymore and essentially just being an assembly line where hits are mechanically constructed and thrown in a pretty package for the consumer. There is certainly a debate to be had about that and there are a lot of valid arguments on both side, but even the most jaded music listener has to agree that when you move out of the Carly Rae Jepsens and Justin Biebers of the industry, there are a lot of people underneath the surface of the genre that still make compelling, pop-driven music.
In the eyes of many, Amanda Palmer is a perfect example of someone who fits that bill. Palmer, one of the two members of the dark cabaret group The Dresden Dolls, has found some measure of success with a solo career. Her 2008 solo debut,
Who Killed Amanda Palmer
, earned some chart success and a positive response from critics, not to mention adding to her loyal fanbase; however, a bitter dispute with her record label over their distaste for her looking like a normal human being and not a rail-thin model led her down the path of self-release. Palmer started up a Kickstarter campaign and received almost $1.2 million from dedicated fans, compared to the $100,000 she was seeking, the result is her latest album,
Theatre of Evil
, with which she attempts to break the mold of pop music, not to mention the traditional avenue through which popular music is made and distributed.
After a brief little opening in German introducing Palmer and her new backing group The Grand Theft Orchestra,
Theatre of Evil
launches into the cheekily-titled "Smile (Pictures or It Didn't Happen)." The lavishly-produced track has a massive, all-encompassing sound to it. With a thunderous drumbeat propelling the wall of sound that forms the backbone of the song, Palmer has an incredibly powerful opener to immediately grab the listener's attention. The song is impossible to deny for its sheer musical power. And then just like that, the album switches gears with "The Killing Type." The song starts off with Palmer singing over a relatively bass line by Jherek Bischoff, and it seems as if we're going to get a more stripped-down track. But Palmer has more than that ready for us, and by the second chorus we're fully immersed in her musical world, which is always a much more complex place than first guess would reveal.
While there is a definite appeal to the social media themes of "Smile," it is "The Killing Type" where Palmer's lyrical talent really comes on display for the first time on this album. The song is a disturbing odr to being frustrated with emotional distance in a partner. The song even goes meta as the subject claims that she couldn't kill someone even if it softened the heart of her beloved, "I can say it in a song/and I'm saying it now." By the end of the song though, it takes on a more ominous tone that makes you wonder if perhaps the singer really doth protest too much. Throughout the album, Palmer has an ability to weave her poetic prowess with pop culture references both current (Instagram) and dated (
Moscow on the Hudson
and) in such a way that they don't feel dated in any way; in one moment she gloriously combines a reference to Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" and Showtime's
The L Word
. At the same time, she's tackling some of the same topics that her more well-known pop contemporaries are taking on, but she does so in a way that leaves all those contemporaries in the dust.
One of the early highlights of the album is "Grown Man Cry." There are other songs that have tackled the ploy that some men use of being sensitive to hide a lack of true emotional depth, but Palmer takes it on in such an evocative way. It's made all the more effective with the weary, resigned tone in Palmer's voice as she intones "We are standing on the corner, and you're throwing down the gauntlet/it is not a life decision, we just need to pick a restaurant." That paints a very clear and poignant picture of a relationship without the need to spell it out.
The same can be said of the brilliant lyrics in "The Bed Song," which traces the rise and fall of a relationship from being "friends in a sleeping bag" to young love on an apartment futon, a proper bed in a growingly-distant condo all the way through to a final resting place. I guarantee that you will not hear a song like this anywhere on the radio, and that is absolutely criminal; lines such as "All the money in the world won't buy a bed so big and wide/to guarantee that you won't accidentally touch me in the night" are stunning in their emotional sharpness, made all the more painful with Palmer's soft delivery or the song. And that's one of the things makes this album such a wonderful one. Pop music is desperately crying out for someone to make music in the genre that is not only accessible, but emotionally and intellectually challenging. Palmer does this in a way that makes it seem easy.
It's not just about the lyrics, though. As radiant as the lyrical content is, without the proper musical tone Palmer would just be a poet with a great voice. The music of
Theatre Is Evil
incredibly wide-ranging on a stylistic level, but never loses coherency for the sake of its twists and turns. She is able to take her sound and expand and build on it, diversifying into surprising, yet never unsuccessful, ways. Shades of rock, punk, classical music, alt-rock, goth, new wave and more weave their way in and out of the fifteen songs on the album. Some of the influences are overt references, such as when the famous riff from The Knack's "My Sharona" makes an appearance in "Melody Dean" right along with a direct lyrical reference to the song. It's a playful reference and Palmer threads her needle with other influences as well; some are remarkably easy to pick out (the Tori Amos feel of "Trout Heart Replica" is hard to deny), while others are much more subtle. But in all instances, this isn't just a singer aping the sound of other artists; this is Palmer combining sounds to create a wholly-unique, emotionally captivating album. It entertains and hits all the right notes while at the same time challenging the way we think about popular music.
Standout Tracks: "The Killing Type," "Do It with a Rockstar," "Want It Back," "Grown Man Cry," "The Bed Song"
Skippable: None
The 411
: Amanda Palmer raised $1.2 million dollars on Kickstarter for
Theatre Is Evil
, raising the bar for self-released music but setting the bar remarkably high for herself as well in order to deliver. It's safe to say that her fans got every penny's worth.
Theatre Is Evil
is alternative pop at its finest, with Palmer's exceptional lyrical skill combining with a constantly-changing but never jarring sound. This is music that never alienates the listener but yet never dumbs itself down either; it manages the rare feat of being musically accessible and yet intellectually and emotionally challenging. It may not quite be for everyone, but even those who are put off by Palmer's non-traditional style will find something to appreciate somewhere in the album. It's a tour de force and makes a strong end-run toward the top albums of 2012.
Final Score: 9.5

4. Other information
Loss may not be limited to passwords; depending on the malware in question, potentially any information entered, stored or processed on an infected computer may have been disclosed to an attacker. Information may have been stolen from online services if the attackers have gained access to the password for that services.
Online banking sites commonly use more than just a single password to authenticate users, but these days malware is extremely sophisticated and able to capture any additional information you supply when logging in. This may include a password or code number from which you enter only certain letters or digits (over time, attackers can capture the full passcode), personal information such as your date of birth, favourite colour, mother's maiden name. If you have made any online purchases, credit card details have likely been captured along with expiry dates, CVV codes and passwords for authentication systems such as Verified by Visa or Mastercard Securecode.
Please also be aware that seemingly harmless personal information may aid attackers in getting control of certain accounts even if you have changed your password. Many sites these days allow you to reset a password by supplying certain personal information. For instance, OUCS use date of birth, University card barcode and a "security question" of your choosing. Many users have chosen to use simple questions such as their mother's maiden name or their dog's name for their security question, in spite of OUCS's advice not to do so. Such questions may be trivial for attackers to answer from other information they have captured; other questions such as "favourite colour" can be easy to guess.

Gene Model Predicts Recurrence Risk in Early-Stage NSCLC
Researchers have developed a lung "metagene" model that accurately predicts the risk of recurrence for patients diagnosed with early-stage (IA) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), according to results published in the August 9 New England Journal of Medicine.
Previous studies have shown the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery for patients with later stages of NSCLC, but not for stage IA disease. However, about 25 percent of patients in that stage subsequently have a recurrence, suggesting a need to identify a subgroup that might benefit from adjuvant drug treatment, noted the researchers, led by Dr. Anil Potti of the Duke Institute for Genome Sciences & Policy at Duke University.

Getting New Interventions to Patients More Quickly
There is much excitement in the cancer research community about the rapid discovery of biomarkers. These discoveries range from protein signatures that may predict recurrence or response to therapy, to new imaging technologies that measure the extent of drug-target interactions. The combination of these types of biomarker discoveries with studies that are demonstrating the predictive prowess of gene-expression profiles, like the one highlighted in this week's lead story, is generating tremendous optimism about the future of personalized oncology care.
Of course, advanced technologies have significantly improved our ability to discover potential biomarkers. But biomarker discovery is only the beginning. The harder part is to qualify or validate the biomarker - that is, conduct the clinical studies and develop the correlative data that definitively describe the precise clinical meaning of a given biomarker in a specific situation.

Hi, I'm Jaden, a professional recipe developer, food columnist and food photographer specializing in fast, fresh and easy recipes for the home cook. Most of my recipes are modern Asian! About meFast, fresh & easy recipes for the home cook.

Above: Chinese Steamed Rockfish
When I go home to visit my Mom, I always ask for this dish, Chinese Steamed Fish. Mom lives in Los Angeles, where there is an Asian market on every street corner. Most have live fish tanks where you can choose which lucky fella gets to come home with you for a dinner date. Steaming is the purest and the most delicious way to cook fresh fish. We top it with soy sauce, cilantro, ginger, green onion slivers, and pour sizzling hot peanut oil all over the fish. You'll taste the delicate, sweet flavor of the fish.
"Pick out your own fish to slaughter!?" you ask, squeamishly? Absolutely. My Asian friends know the routine. You arrive at the market early in the morning, when you are most alert and the fish are happy, having just eaten their breakfast. Stand in front of the fish tank.
But hold it.
Before you even start looking at the fish, you must do some simple, but essential calisthenic exercises to maximize your fish-picking-potential.
Chinese Steamed Fish Picking Calisthenics
1) First, stand tall, feet shoulder-width apart. Arms up over head and and stretch leeffffttttt. Now riiiiigggghhhhtttt. Good. This helps you warm up and be limber. You may run in place for 30 seconds.
2) Eyes straight ahead, hands to hips. Without moving head, eyes look left. right. straight. circles now. counterclockwise. Perfect. This helps your eyes follow your desired fish in the tank. Because you know. Fish move around.
3) Dominant arm up, pointer finger out and in a relaxed yet confident manner, point left. right. up. down. wiggle. Come on, feel it. Make it burn! Do a little John Travolta move. This exercise help flex your pointer finger to point out desired fish to your fishmonger as the fish swims around trying to avoid you. Yes, you'll look stupid, but you're a foodie and you'll do anything for the freshest fish. Alright. Now you are ready, my friend.
Chinese Steamed Fish-Picking Strategies
The best way to describe how to pick a good fish is to compare it to picking up a guy at a bar.
Rule #1. Don't pick the ones that are passed out at the bar. The upside down ones are deadbeats. duh!
Rule #2 Don't pick the super fast with jerky movements either, he's way too nervous, excited and will (ahem) too early. The courtship will be over before you even know it and you'll be left totally unsatisfied.
Rule #3 Don't pick out the biggest, most muscular fish. He's too busy checking himself out in the reflection of the tank to even notice you anyways. His muscles are too tough and you'll be chewing 'til next November.
Rule #4 Go for a fish that is relaxed, laid back, confident and having a good time. Nice skin, not too flashy, no body piercings and kind eyes. Because a happy fish is a good eating fish. All them endorphins in its little body makes his meat sweet.
So, lets say you live in Florida, the sunshine state that is surrounded…not 1…not 2…but 3 sides with water that is abundant with seafood…..but your markets don't have live fish tanks and all they sell is defrosted fillets. No worries. just use those fillets, but talk to your fishmonger to make sure those fillets haven't been sitting in the case for days. You want as fresh as possible…unless you're in Florida you'll just ask for "just defrosted" fillets. Better yet, see if they have any fillets still frozen. Look in the freezer case. Ok, I know, I'm bitching…but come on Florida – don't be squeamish about live fish!!
Chinese Steamed Fish Recipe
I like steaming any type of bass, red snapper, yellowtail snapper, rock fish, tilapia, trout, halibut (basically any white fish). I've also steamed salmon this way too with great success.
A Modern Technique for Restaurant Quality Chinese Steamed Fish
If you've ever steamed fish Chinese style before or have read about how to steam fish, here is a new technique for you that I've learnt from my Mom and included a tip from Amy. You'll stuff the fish with scallions/ginger/cilantro and you'll also lay the fish on a bed of the same. After steaming, traditionally you would just serve the fish with its cooking juices and all of the cooked herbs. However, the cooking juice tastes very fishy (not in a good way) and can be cloudy. The herbs have lost all of its flavor during the cooking processes and just aren't very pretty to serve. The secret for restaurant-quality, clean, fresh tasting steamed fish is to serve the fish with fresh herbs and clean sauce. By far, the easiest way to do this is:
- After steaming, discard the cooked herbs and cooking juices in the pan.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add cilantro, chilli, soy, sugar, wine, sesame oil, salt & pepper. Microwave for 30 seconds to warm it up and release its flavors. Pour this on top of the cooked, steamed fish.
- In a small pan or wok, heat up some cooking oil until smoking hot. Add scallion and ginger to the hot oil and fry for 10 seconds to "pop" the flavors. Pour this hot oil over the fish just seconds before serving.
Another secret to restaurant-quality steamed fish is to steam on medium heat. You want to delicately steam the fish. A high rolling harsh boil will tear apart the delicate flesh of the fish and finished dish will not look as pretty (plus you run the risk of over cooking the fish)
Ingredients:1 pound whole fish (or fillets 1" or thicker) yields the best results(A)
4 stalks, scallions - cut into 3" lengths
3" piece of ginger - slice into "coins"
small bunch of cilantro
1 1/2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine to pour on fish prior to steaming (or any cooking wine like dry sherry)
salt & pepper(B)
2 tablespoons rough chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt + 1/4 teaspoon white pepper (or black pepper if you don't have white)
fresh chilli - thinly sliced (optional)(C)
2 stalks, scallions - cut into 3" lengths
2" piece of ginger - finely julienned to the skinniest, thinnest strips you can possibly manage without a microscope
2 tablespoons cooking oil
Equipment: shallow pan to hold fish & large pot or wok for steaming. If you don't have a fancy steamer or steamer insert, take a shallow-ish bowl and invert to use as a stand. Or...3 shot glasses inverted.
1. Clean & Stuff: Clean your fish, pat dry. Season generously inside and out with salt and pepper. Take half of (A) and stuff inside the fish. If you are using fillets, skip this.
2. Make your bed: Take the other half of (A) and lay it in a shallow pan. If using fillets, just use all of (A) for the bed. Lay the fish on top of the bed. If fish is too long, cut in half. Pour 1 1/2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine on top of the fish.
3. Steam: Add 2" of water to your large pot, cover and boil. When it is boiling, uncover and wipe the inside of the cover clean of any condensation (all this condensation will drip back down on your fish, diluting the flavor) Put your fish pan inside, propped up with a small inverted bowl. Steam the fish on medium (see below for cooking times).
- Whole fish 1 lb: check at 12 minutes, add 2 minutes for every 1/2 lb
- Fillets 1" and thicker: check at 10 minutes, add 2 minutes for every 1/2" more thickness
- Fillets less than 1": check at 7 minutes
- Super thin fillets: check at 5 minutes
Check to see if its done at the times indicated. Poke your chopstick at the flesh near the top fin. If flesh flakes easily near the top fin, then its done. If flesh sticks together still, then add 1-2 more minutes to cooking time. For fillets, just gently poke at the flesh in the middle. Timing really depends on the thickness of your fish. Also check to make sure you haven't run out of steaming water.
4. Aromatics: Towards the end of the steaming process, you'll want to start preparing the aromatics that garnish the finished dish. Take a microwave-safe bowl, add (B) and microwave for 30 seconds. Set aside. When fish is done steaming, carefully lift the fish out onto a serving platter, discarding all of the cooked cilantro/ginger/scallions and the fish juice in the pan. Pour the hot (B) over fish.
Now we'll work with (C): In a separate pan or wok, heat up cooking oil until you see smoke. Add the ginger and scallions, fry for 10 seconds to "pop" the flavors. Pour this cooking oil + herbs over the fish. You'll hear a very satisfying sizzle!

The Secrets to the Best Chinese Fried Rice
I can't quite picture the steaming apparatus. I have no fancy steaming equipment big enough to hold a fish. Could you describe (or post a picture!) a little further. You put the fish in a regular baking pan and put the pan somehow over simmering water in a wok? With an inverted bowl/shot glasses? I got lost. Want to try though!

I have become a steaming o"fish"ionado and my Chinese/American girlfriend will love SteamyKitchen/me forever. I love going to the Ranch and finding the freshest most gorgeous whole fish and taking it home to steam. Thank you for opening up my world to amazing steamed fish, cooked at home!
My wife is not a big fan of fish … but, I think if I served her a dish that looked like your she would eat it. Just beautiful! I gave your blog a thumbs up!
Hi there
I just came accross your blog thanks to stumbleupon and I am loving the food pics that you have, they are all so bright and full of colour. I started off as a blogger myself a year ago and loved talking to other food bloggers around the world so much that I wanted to find a way of more people sharing photos and meeting other foodies. I used to get annoyed that I would be making so many great recipe videos and food photos and hardly anybody would see them! That is when I came up with http://www.ifoods.tv which is a new site for foodies all around the world to share food photos, recipes and videos as well as meeting other foodies. We are only starting off and are currently a small community but I would love to see you there sharing some of your amazing photos with other foodies! Keep up the good work on the blog and hope to talk soon.

I realize now my posting a month ago was not ever submitted so I'll try again.
This is an excellent recipe! I can tell you from living in southern China for a few months, this is exactly how they make it there! I've recreated this recipe many times and the fish is always excellent.
I will note, the sesame oil aromatics are absolutely necessary to bring out the full flavors of the fish. I heartily recommend this recipe to anyone that wants to try their hand at making steamed fish, no matter what experience level you have!
Cooked this for dinner, it was fantastic. Tasted just like at a really good Chinese seafood restaurant. My Chinese mom would be so proud that I actually steamed a whole fish like her. It was fast and easy.
Hi, my mom's guide to steaming times is as follows:–
Weigh the fish after it's descaled, gutted & cleaned.
1 sec for every gram.
For example, a fish that weighs 480g => 480sec => 8min
A fish of 570g => 570sec => 9min 30sec
After 8min is up, turn off fire & leave covered for additional 2min.
I found that for pomfret, which is thicker-for-weight than the average fish, I need to use an additional 2min or so.
My mom never used fillets, so she can't tell if this guide goes for fillets. But I think what might work would be a 'guestimate' based on how much would be the weight of a fish of a similar thickness as the fillet.

i am new to your blog, thanks for sharing your yummy receipe, skill and knowledge.
DISCARD the 'fishy' liquid? Surely you jest! That's by far my most fave part of the whole deal. I sometimes don't even bother with the fish – I just spoon all that delicious fish juice (flavored now with soy sauce and hot oil) onto my bowl of rice and chow down. That's my dream dinner right there, and something that I don't get to do nearly as often as I'd like.
I tried this dish out and it was a success at the first trial. Thank you for sharing
Wonderful dish. I was using a fairly new bamboo steamer and discovered my usual dish did not fit. I brought the water to a boil, added the steamer which I had used one of those papers for steamers in the bottom, then the vegetables with fish on top. It still worked fine.
Thank you so much for sharing these recipes and techniques.

I just made this for New Year's Eve (新年快乐!)and it was amazing. I've fell in love with these flavors living in Singapore and China, and am so happy I can make it at home. Takes me straight back to some of the best restaurant meals I've had in East Asia.
As some of your posters already wrote, leaving a bit of the fish sauce that gathers while cooking is a great way to extend the sauce of the dish – might make it too fishy for some, though.
This was a HUGE hit with my friends for my Chinese New Year's Eve dinner last night. The soy sauce / ginger scallion oil flavors were very similar to steamed fish dishes I used to order at great cantonese seafood restaurants in San Gabriel Valley, Los Angeles.
I didn't have the ability to steam, so I salt-baked the whole fish instead. Laid parchment on a baking sheet, put a layer of coin-shaped ginger and scallions then placed fish (with ginger and scallion stuffed belly) on top, poured a little shaoxing cooking wine over the top of the fish. Then about 6 cups of kosher salt mixed with 1/2 cup of shaoxing cooking wine to help the salt stick together before taking salt mixture and forming a thick mound over the top of the fish, leaving tail and head uncovered. Mold so the salt mound is sealed tight against the fish. 350 degree oven, bake this for about 30 minutes for a 2 lb fish. Take out, crack the hardened salt cover, brush extra salt from fish and move fish to another dish where I proceeded to follow parts (B) and (C) of your recipe. The salt-baking helped the flesh stay super moist and flavorful. And it was great to have the fish in the oven and not taking up any space on the stove so I could concentrate on the other things I was cooking. =)

This is a great method. I used it for salmon for Chinese New Year–yeah I know salmon isn't Chinese!–and it received rave reviews. I'm going to make it again for Easter.
Thanks SO much!
I just started learning how to cook recently… and had never cooked fish before, but this recipe was so easy to follow! And the results were fantastic
My grandparents loved it… and were really surprised.
sounds like a brillant recipie… will for sure try it this weekend ….
great recipe! steaming fish has always been a huge mystery to me. i found another recipe where you steam the fish on a bed of soft tofu, so I combine these two recipes and it is even more fabulous!
This is a fantastic recipe. I've made it three times and my husband and I thought it was wonderful. I've never used this much fresh ginger in a recipe before. It's amazing!!
I used chilean sea bass the first two times. ($21.00 lb-pricey) The third time I used halibut. Not as pretty-but the taste was very good. It's worth is to use the sea bass for us.
Great website. Thank you again for the recipe-I've passed it on to friends.
Thanks so much for this method. I'm from Hawaii and have made chinese styl steamed fish for a long time (I just love it). Now when I steam my fish it will also look real nice. Thanks again.

I love your website. I love the humor, but mostly the little tips. For example, when you wrote "add wine" I wasn't sure if it's for the steaming water or for on top of the fish. You cleared that up immediately. No anxiety in the kitchen and tasted great.
Hi Sarah,
Basically what you're doing is to elevate the pan where your fish is placed so it's not submerged in water. Picture the shot glasses as pegs or legs. You want the steam to cook the fish not the boiling water.
I tried to replicate the restaurant style for years but not really getting it quite right. Thank you very much for this recipe. Been looking for this recipe for a long time.
Hi. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your site when I was looking for a steamed fish recipe tonight. I have made nice steamed fish before BUT your recipe is AMAZING! I had 2 snappers and 1 perch, cut off the heads and tails so the fish fitted in 2 steamer baskets (bamboo style, bought at one of many Asian grocery stores around here)I have a stainless steel pot to fit the bamboo steamer snugly. Filled it 1/3 way up with hot water and followed your fantastic recipe to the tee and "voila" – the best steamed fish ever! Better taste than my good, local Chinese restaurant. It must be the "B" and "C" and all of the other tips etc. Even my husband loved it and he does not usually like all the Asian herbs and spices but these were balanced so well that nothing was overpowering. Thank you for a stand out healthy fish recipe. I am going to follow Steamy Kitchen for more of the same, good stuff.
Generally I do not learn article on blogs, but I would like to say that this write-up very

INTEGRAL deciphers diffuse signature of cosmic-ray electrons
Astronomers exploiting six years worth of data from ESA's INTEGRAL mission have pinned down the individual processes contributing to the high-energy Galactic interstellar emission produced by cosmic-ray electrons. Deciphering each of the different physical mechanisms at play at hard X-ray and soft gamma-ray wavelengths represents a crucial step towards an increasingly detailed picture of the population of high-energy particles permeating the Milky Way.

Strangely slow pulsar discovered nestled in young supernova remnant
Astronomers have discovered a very slowly rotating X-ray pulsar still embedded in the remnant of the supernova that created it. This unusual object was detected on the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, using data from a number of telescopes, including ESA's XMM-Newton. A puzzling mismatch between the fairly young age of the supernova remnant and the slow rotation of the pulsar, which would normally indicate a much older object, raises interesting questions about the origin and evolution of pulsars.

MARSIS completes measurement campaign over Martian North Pole
The Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding (MARSIS) instrument on board Mars Express has recently completed a subsurface sounding campaign over the planet's North Pole. The campaign was interrupted by the suspension of science observations several times between August and October due to safe modes and to anomalies in the operation of the spacecraft's Solid-State Mass Memory (SSMM) system. As MARSIS best observes in the dark, which for the North Pole only occurs every few years, it was among the first instruments to resume observations once a partial work-around for the problems had been implemented.

The U.S. Navy won't be sending any ships to New York City's Fleet Week this year because of sequester budget cuts, essentially canceling the longtime annual event.
Instead, local service members from all branches of the military will participate in locally sponsored Memorial Day weekend events, the Navy said.
"Fleet Week New York is a tremendous partnership between the people of New York City and Staten Island and our Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard team," said Beth Baker, the director of public affairs for Fleet Week New York. "It is unfortunate the Sea Services will not be participating in the 2013 celebration due to our continuing budget challenges. Over the years, the city and many community agencies have developed strong partnerships with the sea services affording us an opportunity to highlight military service over Memorial Day."
The impact to the city's economy could be a loss of about $20 million, according to the Office of Economic Development.
"Fleet Week is a great opportunity to salute the servicemen and women of our Navy, Marines and Coast Guard who do so much for our country," said Evelyn Erskine, a City Hall spokesperson. "We understand the Navy's budgetary limitations and hope that the Fleet Week tradition can continue in 2014."

As Associated Student Body (ASB) President at Prairie High School, Nadia Mousleh is motivated by "the smiles on people's faces when you make a difference."
Born to a Russian mother and a Palestinian father, Nadia credits her parents for fostering an understanding of diverse backgrounds. "If it weren't for my parents, I wouldn't be as strong a leader," she says.
After an early focus on varsity basketball, Nadia began to pursue other interests. Nadia notes, "I slowly learned that everyone had a story that shapes who they are and makes them diverse in their own way."
Nadia is a mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southwest Washington, describing
it as one of her "most rewarding experiences." Many of her other activities are also
geared toward helping those in need.

She chairs the Prairie High School Operation Fairy Godmother project, which provides dresses to ensure that every girl has a chance to go to her high school prom, even if she can't afford a new dress.
Nadia also chairs the annual canned food drive at Prairie High School. This year, Prairie and Battle Ground High Schools hosted a joint food drive. Nadia notes, "This partnership allows students to see that we can make a bigger difference if we all work together to help those that need it most."
As ASB president and through all her activities, Nadia strives to make her high school and community a better place. Through the organization "Every Fifteen Minutes," Nadia has helped educate other students about the dangers of drunk driving.
Nadia is also a mentor in Rachel's Challenge, an organization created in honor of Rachel Scott, a student who was killed at Columbine High School. Rachel's Challenge motivates students to treat each other with positive words, attitudes, and actions. In her own role as a Rachel's Challenge mentor, Nadia befriends new students—and mentors freshmen—easing their transition to Prairie High School.
To better serve her community, Nadia has actively developed her own leadership skills. She became involved in the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar, a national program that empowers youth nationwide. After her sophomore year, Nadia served as a delegate at the Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar Gonzaga University. The following summer, she volunteered at the leadership seminar, planning a talent show and supporting many other events.
Nadia's ASB Leadership Advisor, Jennifer Havig, nominated her for the Young Woman of Achievement award. "Nadia promotes the recognition of student diversity on all levels and encourages students to accept others," Havig wrote. "Nadia is a fantastic representation of the ideals held by the YWCA and is an excellent choice for the Young Women of Achievement Award."

Arizona Cardinals
Bruce Arians has been named the Arizona Cardinals head coach
After 17 long days, the Arizona Cardinals have finally found their next head coach.
Apparently the Cardinals front office left impressed from their Thursday interview with Indianapolis Colts offensive Coordinator Bruce Arians. So much so, that the 60-year-old has been hired to take over the vacancy previously held by Ken Whisenhunt.
The @azcardinals have named Bruce Arians as their new head coach.#AZCards #nfl— Arizona Cardinals (@AZCardinals) January 18, 2013
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport was the first to report the hiring Thursday evening.
Arians, who has most recently served as the offensive coordinator with the Colts (2012) and Pittsburgh Steelers (2007-2011), has been an NFL assistant dating back to 1989.
He has previously worked with quarterbacks Peyton Manning, Ben Roethlisberger and Andrew Luck.
Arians will become the 39th coach in team history and the ninth since the team moved to the Valley.
Darren Urban of ArizonaCardinals.com has reported that the both Arians and the organization have agreed to terms on a deal and that a press conference will be scheduled for Friday.
Bruce Arians and @azcardinals agree to 4-yr contract making Arians new head coach. Team option for 5th year. Press conference Friday.— Darren Urban (@Cardschatter) January 18, 2013
ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter also reported terms of the agreement earlier in the evening.
While Arians has no official head coaching experience in the NFL, during the 2012 season he took over as the Colts head coach in early October after Chuck Pagano was diagnosed with leukemia. Indianapolis went 9-3 under Arians and made an unlikely run to the NFL playoffs.
In his lone year with the Colts, the team finished the regular season ranked 7th in the NFL in total offense, averaging 419 yards per game.
As an offensive assistant in Pittsburgh for seven years, Arians helped lead the Steelers to six postseason appearances, including two Super Bowl wins in 2005 and 2008.
Ironically, this will not be the first time Arians has replaced Ken Whisenhunt. After Whisenhunt left to become the Cardinals head coach in 2007, Arians replaced him as Pittsburgh's offensive coordinator.
Arizona's current defensive coordinator Ray Horton served with Arians in Pittsburgh from 2004-2010. While the Cardinals defense finished the 2012 season finished in top 5 in team defense and takeaways, Arians remained quiet during a Thursday media session about Horton's future with the team.

You must have a healthy foundation for long term nutrition success!! Many start a nutrition program with the wrong foundation from the beginning. I challenge you to ask yourself the following. 1. Can I maintain this "diet" restriction for more than 12 weeks? 2. Can I afford to purchase meals, pills, supplements, or shakes to maintain my results? Please check out my story below.
Now keep in mind my highest body weight was 204# with a body fat of 16# at my highest. This body mass was incredible and felt bullet proof. My strength was crazy but my stomach was out of control. Even being a personal trainer I never felt comfortable taking my shirt off in public and with 3 small children constantly wanting to go to the pool I dreaded the moment. In the sport that I loved so much (powerlifting) nobody really cares how lean or ripped you are. Typically the strongest powerlifters are the guys with the big hard abdomens, huge barrel chests, and big arms. The big hard stomach is really an advantage when it comes to squatting the big weight! My gut was large for me but I could squat over 500#, bench press 400#, and deadlift over 600#, so i sacrificed my leanness for strength, maybe an excuse for laziness on the nutrition side? My eating habits were 80% good and 20% bad! Now I considered bad (candy bar from gas station, once a week fast food, bread, and sometimes other starchy carbs). Since I was super competitive I constantly looked for biggest and best supplement to give me the leading advantage. I took so many supplements that you would have thought they were additional meals packed with pills and powders. My supplement bill exceeded over $4,000+ a year!
Now looking back….was this a healthy feasible foundation?!? Now please keep in mind I am not anti supplement by any means….but 99.9% do not work. If you are taking a supplement to mask a unhealthy habit…then you need to work on the improving your habits.
Here are a few things to consider.
Infomercials are everywhere!! How many times have you joined a weight loss program only falling short of getting results or regaining back everything you lost? Are you tired of searching for a workout that will promise lasting results? Do you hesitate starting a new fitness program because you might fail? Don't worry you are not alone. Here are 8 factors to ask yourself when deciding on a fitness program. I have listed the most common choices that people choose for their fitness program and how they size up.
- Local Weight Loss Clinics
- Supplements and Weight Loss Formulas
- Exercising On Your Own
Now use the following list from below and see if they can offer all of these deciding factors.
- Firm Toned Muscles
- Increased Metabolism
- Constantly challenging you
- Fun and effective (not dreadful)
- Accountability
- Education for a lifetime
- Encouragement and Motivation
Now I will evaluate the common choices that people choose and see if they offer the 8 deciding factors.
Local Weight Loss Clinic:
- Toned Firm Muscles (NO)
- Increased Metabolism (NO WAY)
- Constantly Challenging You (NO)
- Fun and Effective ( Possibly)
- Accountability (Occasionally)
- Education For A Lifetime ( Possibly)
- Encouragement and Motivation ( Depends)
Supplements and Weight Loss Formulas:
- Toned and Firmed Muscles (NO)
- Increased Metabolism ( Maybe)
- Constantly Challenging You (NO)
- Fun and Effective (NO)
- Accountability (NO)
- Education For A Lifetime (NO)
- Encouragement And Motivation (NO)
Exercising On Your Own:
- Toned And Firmed Muscles (Maybe)
- Increased Metabolism (NO)
- Constantly Challenging You (Unlikely)
- Fun And Effective (Unlikely)
- Accountability (NO)
- Education For A Lifetime (Maybe)
- Encouragement And Motivation (NO)
There is no "secret" to long term fitness success. Keep these 3 "B's" in mind with choosing what is best for you. The 3 "B's" are basic, balanced, and best choices. Please stay clear of the "magic" potions and promises that are their for short term success.
Train smart and expect success
