must-see on msn
We keep our cars until they are dead, and if we can ever get a house, we'll keep it as long as we can.
I believe that people should make their houses a home. I also believe that people should do whatever remodeling they want to make their homes comfortable for them. I have a small house (672 sq ft), have boring colors by most peoples standards and update when necessary.
For example, instead installing central air, I have an evaporated cooler. I only feel that 10 days or so are uncomfortable; therefore, I would not use it much anyway. This must be unusual because the power company keeps calling to get a savers switch installed.
I think If you are not going to use it for your pleasure then don't do it. When you over improve your house, you will loose money.
The advice on changing the doorknobs is sheer stupidity the first thing anyone will do when they purchase a house, any house is to change all of the locks, which means all of the doorknobs on the exterior of the house, dated? changing the interior door knobs will not change the impression of the house, if the knobs are from the seventies so is the trim, the baseboard and all of the lighting fixtures, and any hinge attached to any door, which incidentally will in all probability be brass.
Save your money or put it where it counts, the bathrooms are what will make or break a house, nobody wants to see one substandard, lets face it, if you were meticulous about keeping up the bathroom, you were meticulous about every square inch of the house, and that is a selling point that no one will discuss out loud, only in private, like "did you see the bathroom, gross!!!!!!!!!" can you just imagine what is hiding in the corners or behind the shoddy remodeling job.
Most of this article was written as though everybody should have resale in mind. Granted some remodeling projects are poorly thought out especially changing the garage into a room. Here in SW Florida, a garage is expected in a house and even some condos and townhomes have them now. It's not fun getting into a car that is 130 degrees or trying to bring in groceries during one of our torrential every summer day downpours.
I keep to fairly neutral colors anyway because I like them and I use color in my accessories: pillows, throws, etc. I recently looked at a townhouse that had ever room painted a different unusual color: bright yellow, purple, dark green. That's fine if you like it but definitely paint it when you put your house on the market. There's a lot of buyers out there who want a move-in ready home and if they see a lot of painting in their future, they may just go elsewhere.
Yes, he unexpected can happen and you might find yourself having to sell because of unforseen circumstances but we should be able to enjoy our homes the way WE like, brass doorknobs and all.
You ignore the fact that many times the owners make improvements or add amenities to make themselves feel better at home. They are not contemplating to move, their kids are in third and fourth grade, they have a few years left on the mortgage so anything they add to the home represents a feeling of elation and satisfaction. The kids are content, they have plenty of entertaining right at home, and they have a ping pong table in what used to be the garage. If it were not for the soccer field being two miles away, it would be a perfect place to live.
I do not know where you people are getting your help to do your homes I just purchased a home in Southern California complete renovation took out all drywall all electricity all plumbing my cost was approximately 1/3 of what you people are estimating your costs at the most expensive thing I purchased was an air conditioner and heating unit which the home did not have when I purchased it
it did have a swimming pool which was very easy and cheap to bring back to usable and safe conditions most of my help came from (as acted as my own general contractor which is allowed in my city )Home Depot labor and craigslist electricians that were out of work plumbers that were out of work
people that spend $50,000 to recondition a kitchen just have too much money or they are just stupid
I purchased a home in the middle 300,000s after renovations the value of the home has increased to approximately 480,000 other than the air-conditioning and heating system labor equipment merchandise i.e tile kitchen cabinets, cabinets for bathrooms new bathroom tubs new bathroom showers new carpet I invested less than $28,000 so where you're getting these numbers if you are really spending that much you're getting screwed
As an old ex-investor and owner of a free and clear 31-year-old house I had built, I agree with most of the items mentioned in the article. Even without any house payment, I calculate my monthly expenses for property tax, insurance, utilities, and minor maintenance at approx $1500 per month. I have two 4-ton central AC/heating units that are 31 years old and will need replacing eventually at around $20K. They have always been maintained professionally at the beginning of the AC season. Two 50 gallon water heaters one 31 years old the other 12 years, about $2000 for both when needed. Remodeled the 30-year-old swimming pool for the second time $11000 each time. New fence $9K, new roof about $25K. Kitchen, Bathrooms remodels $70K. All wood flooring in every room $8K, new tile for kitchen and hall about $3.5K. The original cost of the house in 1982 Texas was $250,000 with an additional $26K for pool and $5K for fence.
Yes, it would be much cheaper to rent, especially with only two of us, however I would loss all privacy and could not swim nude in the community pool. I also like to blast the nine speakers and one sup-woofer watching movies.

text: Microchipping Deadline looms Tue, 17 Apr 2012 00:00 - Tuesday, 17 April 2012, 00:00 Veterinarians at the St Francis animal shelter in Ta' Qali offered free treatment services for worms in dogs at the weekend, when families were invited to take their dog to be microchipped. Recently introduced regulations lay down that all dogs are to be microchipped by June this year. They are intended to reduce the number of people who abuse or abandon their dogs, to lessen public health dangers arising from the spreading of disease by dogs; lessen the number of attacks by abandoned dogs on other dogs and animals; and to create a central database with a registry for all the information relating to dogs and their owners. The microchip, a small chip, is introduced under the dog's skin. It carries a unique number which links to information on the owner in the national livestock database. The chip leads to the identification of the owner, so where a dog is lost, abandoned or involved in some accident, the information about the owner is accessible. There is a €300 fine for those not registering their dog by the end of this June, or for submitting incorrect, incomplete or false information on registration. No one is allowed to remove a microchip from a dog, and there is a €500 fine on a person having a registered dog whose chip cannot be found. Dog owners are to ensure that their dog is registered by 30 June, 2012 (and, after this date, before the dog has developed its lower fangs) at a vet. The charge is €11.80, including VAT, for neutered dogs, and €22.70 for non-neutered dogs. The difference is to encourage owners to neuter their dog. Where dog ownership is transferred, the directorate has to be informed within seven days. A new licence will be issued to the new owner, at no charge. Further information is obtainable from the Resources Ministry on tel. 2295-2170.

92% (7,500 homes and businesses) of those serviced by the Utility in Van Buren County lost power overnight.
8,500 in Kalamazoo County, 9,500 in Allegan County, and 2,900 in Barry County also lost power in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Consumer's Energy spokesman Dan Bishop says they have had a crews out assessing the damage, but for safety reasons they waited to send repair crews until sunrise.

One of the most important and convenient things that db4o provides is the ability to store any object just as it is: no interfaces to be implemented, no custom fields, no attributes/annotations - nothing, just a plain object. However, it is not as simple as it may seem - objects are getting more and more complex and sometimes the generic solution is not good enough for specific objects.
This problem was recognized by db4o team long ago, and various solutions were provided to customize the way an object is stored: configuration readAs method, Translators, transient fields in Java and .NET and classes, custom marshallers etc. However all these means were rather fixing the symptoms but not the disease itself. And the fact is that there is no single generic way to store just any available or future object in the best possible way. But luckily we don't even need it - all we need is a simple way to write a specific persistence solution for any custom object, and now db4o provides this way though a pluggable TypeHandler4/ITypeHandler4 interface:
configuration.common().registerTypeHandler(TypeHandlerPredicate, TypeHandler4);
In the method above TypeHandler4 interface provides methods that define how an object is converted to a low-level byte-array and back and how it behaves in a query:
TypeHandler4.java /**//* Copyright (C) 2004 - 2007 Versant Inc. http://www.db4o.com */ package com.db4o.internal; import com.db4o.ext.*; import com.db4o.internal.fieldhandlers.*; import com.db4o.marshall.*; /** *//** * @exclude */ public interface TypeHandler4 extends Comparable4, FieldHandler { void delete(DeleteContext context) throws Db4oIOException; void defragment(DefragmentContext context); Object read(ReadContext context); void write(WriteContext context, Object obj); }
Comparable4.java /**//* Copyright (C) 2004 Versant Inc. http://www.db4o.com */ package com.db4o.internal; import com.db4o.foundation.*; /** *//** * @exclude */ public interface Comparable4 { PreparedComparison prepareComparison(Object obj); }
TypeHandlerPredicate provides a #match method, which returns true for objects that should be handled with the specified TypeHandler.
Type handler functionality is best explained on a working example.
Usecases and other benefits of the pluggable typehandler interface are reviewed here.

DirecTV Bears Will Get Slaughtered
Ted is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
It is rarely a good idea to bet against Berkshire Hathaway's investment wisdom, but that is just what short-sellers of 12.4 million DirecTV (NASDAQ: DTV) shares were doing as of the middle of May. Meanwhile, Buffett's hand-picked investment managers, Ted Weschler and Todd Combs, continue to load up on the satellite television provider. Investors who follow their lead will likely reap large gains, while short-sellers will continue to suffer losses.
Stronghold in Latin America
DirecTV's domestic business has a poor outlook, which is likely why the stock trades at just 13 times trailing earnings despite high growth overseas. The domestic market is completely saturated, with competitors like DISH Network (NASDAQ: DISH) and even cable companies like Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) putting a low ceiling on DirecTV's growth in the United States. The best that the company can hope for is to retain a large portion of its current customers, as adding new ones will be a difficult task.
There are two ways that satellite providers, like DirecTV and DISH, and cable companies, like Time Warner Cable, can generate additional growth in the years ahead: (1) branch out into new businesses within the United States, or (2) reproduce their domestic business internationally. DISH and Time Warner chose the former, while DirecTV wisely chose the latter.
DISH is a low-cost provider of satellite television, which should prove valuable amid stagnant growth. The company, which focuses on providing low-priced satellite to cost-conscious customers, would benefit from a merger with DirecTV, which earns higher margins via its higher-priced offering. But, DISH has made itself unattractive by diversifying its operations into the notoriously competitive domestic wireless market. As a result, the company is unlikely to produce meaningful growth over the next few years.
Like DISH, Time Warner Cable is committed to remaining a U.S.-centric business. The company is more diversified than DirecTV -- it offers high-speed Internet and phone service in addition to its cable television offering. But, Time Warner Cable suffers from the same pressure that is hampering DirecTV's domestic growth; its cable TV business suffers from the increasing number of online options for streaming television in addition to a saturated market, while its phone service business will likely disappear over the next decade due to the smartphone revolution.
Fortunately for its investors, DirecTV has chosen to focus its investments in Latin America. The company's first-mover advantage in the region has enabled it to grow to scale much faster than if there were serious competitors, and it effectively controls the satellite television market. This initial dominance will likely give it an insurmountable lead in the region, enabling it to earn high margins and outsized returns on invested capital. While its competitors struggle to produce growth in the United States, DirecTV will be growing for years in Latin America.
A clear mispricing
DirecTV trades at 13x earnings, the same multiple as Time Warner Cable. DISH trades at 35x, but investors should not count on a large recovery in earnings power over the next few years.
While Time Warner Cable has growth to spare in its Internet division, its cable TV and phone businesses will continue to decline. In contrast to DirecTV's growing Latin American segment, it is anyone's guess how the two stocks can trade at the same earnings multiples.
Investors who side with Berkshire will likely do much better than the market, while the shorts will get steamrolled as the value of DirecTV's Latin American segment becomes apparent to the market.

5 ways to your best year: Fix your focus"The only reason men fail is broken focus" (Mike Murdock)."
In the past few weeks we've discussed the importance of failing forward, forgiving others and "friending" wisely. Now, it's time to FOCUS! But, in a world rife with distractions, finding the time to get focused can prove challenging. While the change we want starts when we begin to think differently, it will only be realized when we act differently.
I, too, sometimes struggle with focus as I encounter repeated distractions. This leads to unnecessary pressure and a sense of being overwhelmed. During those seasons, "there's not enough time" becomes my mantra!
But, getting focused is a simple matter of making small adjustments that have a compound effect over time. Here are some fixes I use when feeling frazzled:
1. Downsize: Too many activities is the set up for "broken focus." We must learn to differentiate our "want to's" from our "must do's." You can only reach the top, one step at a time. Focus on your next step.
Science shows us the power of focused light -- it becomes a laser. Likewise, focused effort is a powerful and precise laser capable of cutting through all the obstacles impeding your progress.
It's time to focus your light in one direction. Decide what your priorities are for the next phase of your life and then let focused use of your time, talent and resources make you laser sharp in achieving them.
2. Dare to Say NO: When asked to identify THE single thing that most contributed to his success in business, billionaire Warren Buffet's responded that it was his ability to "say no to 99 out of every 100 opportunities" that came his way. If an opportunity doesn't serve your current priorities, it isn't for you! Learning how to say "no" to the wrong things opens the door for the right opportunities to present themselves. It might not make you popular, but it will set you free.
Don't let your life be a mere reaction to what happens in everyone else's. Let focus put you back in the driver's seat. You have to know when to say "no." It doesn't necessarily make you a hero to put other's needs above your own. Too often, it just breaks your focus.
3. Do The Small Stuff: It's been said, you can eat an elephant one bite at a time. The huge goals that scare you can be achieved by breaking them down. How do you lose 50 pounds? Tackle one pound at a time. On the way to 50, take the time to celebrate every five and ten pound milestone. It will keep you hopeful, focused and energized.
One last note: Just as important as what you do are the things you need to stop doing. Stop wasting serious time on casual people. Stop investing time in activities that don't yield results.
Live It! Practice being present. Start eliminating areas of multi-tasking in daily routines. For instance, when you sit down to eat...eat. No TV, no texting, no phone...just eat and enjoy the experience. If you're used to being distracted, it will be uncomfortable at first, but after a few meals of being fully present, you'll begin to notice a change in the quality of the experience. Once you master it in one area of life, it will be easier to apply it to more.

Former Husker Alfonzo Dennard was back in court Friday to face a DUI charge.
On July 11, Dennard was pulled over by a Lincoln police officer for straddling center lines.
As a result, Dennard was charged with DUI, refusal to submit a chemical test and failure to comply.
However, after a plea deal, the DUI and failure to comply charges were dismissed.
Dennard pleaded no contest to refusing a breathalyzer test.
The court found him guilty on the refusal charge and sentenced him Friday.
"It's not unusual for one charge out of an incident that... the defendant admits to one of those charges and the other charges are dismissed as apart of a plea agreement," says Dennard's attorney, Alan Stoler.
Assistant prosecutor Christine Loseke said the DUI and refusal to submit charges carry the same penalty and that it's common for people charged with one to have the other dismissed.
Dennard was sentenced to pay a $500 fine, his license is suspended for 60 days and he will serve probation concurrently with the term he's on for striking a police officer in 2012.
Just a day before, On Thursday, a judge extended Dennard's probation from two to three years and his jail sentence from 30 to 60 days.
The jail term is set for March.

Further delays hit Tube services
Just days before the start of the Olympics, Tube services have been badly disrupted once again
Tube travellers have suffered a series of hold-ups - just days before the start of the Olympics.
A late finish to engineering work meant severe delays to those using the Circle and District lines in the early part of the Wednesday morning rush-hour.
There were then further delays later in the day on the Circle and District lines following a signal failure at Gloucester Road in west London.
A signal failure at Lancaster Gate also caused delays to Central line services.
The difficulties followed the part-suspension of the Bakerloo line during Tuesday's morning rush-hour following a fire alert at Charing Cross underground station.

A victim of its own success, the non-profit group is now pursuing Prohibitionist anti-alcohol policies – such as calling for alcohol detectors in all cars – instead of focusing on its original goal of reducing drunk driving deaths. "The public needs to realize that MADD isn't the same group it was 20 years ago," says American...

There isn't anything good that can be said about smoking. It's bad for your health and the health of those around you. Now, on a positive note, do you know how much money you could save if you quit smoking today?
Average monthly subtotal:
Yearly total:
These figures assume there are 20 cigarettes in each pack of cigarettes.
On average, your smoking costs are per month (30 days) and per year (365 days).
Smoking contributes or causes breathing problems, heart disease and cancer.
Cigarette smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, and at least 69 of them cause cancer. Smoking is linked to lung cancer, mouth cancer and cancer of the larynx, esophagus, cervix, pancreas, kidney and bladder. Smoking accounts for a third of all cancer deaths in this country and 90 percent of all lung cancers.
Smoking destroys the ability of the lungs to clean themselves, making them more susceptible to pneumonia. Smoking causes bronchitis and emphysema, together called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. By 2030, COPD will be the third leading cause of death worldwide.
Smoking increases the risk for heart disease, the leading cause of death in this country. Smoking causes cholesterol to be deposited in blood vessels, making them narrower. It causes blood to clot more easily. This can lead to blood clots that block the flow of blood or travel to organs such as the lungs or to the brain. Cigarette smoke can damage the heart at much lower levels than those that lead to lung disease.
Smoking affects not only you, the smoker, but also those around you who are exposed to your smoke. Children exposed to secondhand smoke are more likely to have bronchitis, pneumonia and ear infections.
Smokers miss more days of work than people who don't smoke because of tobacco-related health problems.

The Environmental Protection Agency is supposed to be reviewing almost a million public comments on their proposed new mercury regulations for power plants. The final regulation isn't set to be issued until next Friday. But according to President Obama's reelection website, the EPA has already acted:
Under President Obama's watch, the Environmental Protection Agency has set up the first national standards for mercury emissions and other dangerous chemicals from coal and oil-fired power plants.
The new rules will help to clear our skies of pollutants that can make health problems like asthma and bronchitis worse, saving up to 17,000 lives each year.
These new power plant regulations will be a disaster for the economy according to the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC). NERC released a study last week predicting that "the nation's power grid will be stressed in ways never before experienced" if the regulations go into effect.
"Early retirement of multiple units in the short-run could stress the bulk power system if plans are not in place to add additional resources to cover the loss of generation from facilities affected by EPA regulations," the NERC report reads. NERC warns that grid operators may see "reduced system stability, tighter flexibility margins, and problems with deliverability of resources."
If the EPA has already made the decision to adopt the proposed rule, as evidenced by the Obama campaign website, then they could not have possibly taken into account the concerns raised by NERC's recent report.
Just as with the Keystone XL pipeline, Obama's political operation is making a clear choice to choose environmentalist votes and money at the expense of working-class voters. The Utility Workers of America, which is affiliated with the ALF-CIO, says the Utility MACT rule will EPA rules will "devastate Michigan's economy."

CMJ Music Festival - NYC
Tonight it goes up in NJ!
CMJ 2012. NYC Tomorrow night we all the way up! (Taken with Instagram)
… "We headed behind the Masquerade to the Music Park, grabbed a spot on the grass, and enjoyed a cheesesteak from one of the various food trucks in the back of the field asFred The Godson took the stage. Out of the Bronx, New York, Fred The Godson was the first of many acts on Friday to represent the East Coast, but there was once again worldwide representation at A3C throughout the night. He commanded the outdoor stage with his classic sound and almost immediately distinguishable voice. His hit "Too Fat" worked the crowd up with its old-school take on new hip-hop sounds. It was a great way to ease us back into the music, combining sounds of the greats that came before him but putting his own spin on things.
Speaking of the greats that came before him, that seemed to be the name of the game on Friday. Prodigy of Mobb Deep was up next, performing to an energized and eager crowd. The way that A3C has legends sitting up against the new faces of hip-hop is something special; it once again shows the unified nature of the event, with the old and the new sharing the same stage and rocking the same crowds. Prodigy's set itself represented that notion—he mixed Mobb Deep classics with his newer solo material to perfect cohesion. The crowd in the Masquerade Music Park was reciting all the words right along with him on songs like standouts from the classic record, The Infamous, "Shook Ones, Pt. II" and "Survival Of The Fittest." With the depth of Mobb Deep's catalog, Prodigy could have rifled through the hits all night, but his set was over in a flash, leaving his songs to echo in our heads throughout the duration of the beautiful night.
After some proper East coast representation, the iHipHop Distribution Stage in the Music Park needed some left coast sounds to balance things out. It is All 3 Coasts festival, after all. The next performer, with roots in both Atlanta and Los Angeles, had two of those coasts covered, and represented the diversity of hip-hop in his style. J-Lie, of both South Korean and South African ancestry, not only represents both of his cities in his unique sound, but he also has a bit of his cultural heritage emanating from his music. He took the stage sitting on a chair, performing a subdued, yet somehow explosive verse before bursting up from his seat and delivering a fiery set. He tackled issues of his race and showed that though J-Lie is different from your typical emcee, he is to be taken seriously. With the skills on display on the stage that night, he wouldn't even have to literally command the crowd's respect to earn it.
J-Lie's stifling southern swing on hazy West coast production was the perfect segue to the classic California sound of Nipsey Hussle. The young man working simply off the back of some renowned mixtapes—his album is set to come out next year—showed why he is one of the biggest and brightest stars on the rise in hip-hop today. Nipsey Hussleperformed mostly cuts from his last two mixtapes, The Marathon and The Marathon Continues, as the crowd bounced in unison under the blackening sky. He showed exactly why he was put in such a high profile spot, commanding the crowd with his blend of street-wise lyrics and ferocious delivery. He brought out Torae, who was set to perform himself later on in the evening, and the two exchanged verses, showing the diversity of each of the emcee's styles and how well it blends together in a live setting.Nipsey Hussle ended his set in a fit of energy, with the entire crowd completely swept up in his amplified set.

A Pennsylvania man and already convicted felon was re-arrested on Monday for abducting and raping an 18-year-old student from Harrisburg Area Community College (HACC) at gunpoint ... allegedly because he wanted to go back to prison.
The accused kidnapper and rapist Clarence Shaffer said the attack was "completely random." He's been charged with six felonies and is in prison on $2 million bail. What's most terrifying is that Shaffer isn't denying anything. And according to the local news, he said after the attack, "I am going home" (which they took to mean back to prison!). Chilling, isn't it? Although I don't know what's more frightening, that he did it on purpose to go back to prison or that it really was completely random.
The details of the crime are horrifying. Shaffer abducted the woman from a campus parking lot and forced her into the passenger seat of her own car. According to police, he drove to a pier and then forced her at gunpoint into the woods. He tried to choke her before sexually assaulting her.
He then reportedly put the gun down and when the alleged victim tried to escape, Shaffer picked it back up and said, "I could kill you now." He then fled. Holy sh*t.
My heart goes out to this poor young woman whose life has been so tragically, horribly altered forever. To suffer that kind of brutal attack and live is a miracle, but her emotional and physical wounds will take a long time to recover from. But what else is horrible is Shaffer's possible motivation for the attack. He wanted to go "home." To prison.
We seriously need to do better as a society if we're going to give people prison sentences for their crimes and then release them back into the world without any rehabilitation or plan for living out in the world again. This man clearly wasn't ready to be back in society, and his solution was to be arrested and jailed again. For a violent, brutal attack on a woman. Why couldn't he just steal a car or rob a bank? It's tragic and I can't help but wonder if it could have been avoided if we'd had some kind of safety net for people like Shaffer.
I don't feel sorry for him. But I do wish our prison system had done better and not let a man like him out to torture and assault women.
Do you think that our prison system needs to do more to support inmates once they're released?
Image via derekskey/Flickr
He needs support for his arm so the warden can find the vein.
I*ll hold the vein!!!
ummm wouldnt it be easier to rob a bank or something?
Sure, he can go back to prison, minus his dick and balls. I'd also tatoo a big target around his butthole and mouth, just to make his rape and sodomy easier. Either that or boill him in oil or skin him alive. His choice.
Oh well, he's done. Skin him alive, boil him in oil, makes no difference, as long as he suffers and ends up begging for death, screaming for his mom and dad. NEXT!

Do You Have a Stale Sex Life?
When we were dating, our sex life was great, but now the spark is gone. Is this due to my husband's ADD? We never seem to find time to get together anymore.
The fact that neither one of you is in the mood isn't just an ADD issue, though marital problems may be caused by symptoms related to the condition: You forget to do something and your husband gets angry at you.
On the other hand, distraction, a common symptom of ADD, can make it seem that your spouse isn't interested in intimacy, when the real problem might be one of scheduling. He is often off doing other things when you're in the mood. Or you might be a morning person and he is an inveterate night owl.
Unless there are other issues affecting your relationship — perhaps one of you is nagging the other without realizing it, or in-laws or friends are taking too much of your time — work on scheduling sex into your life. It sounds unromantic, but think of it as dating. You scheduled dates, didn't you?
Make a pact that you won't let life get in the way of your sexual dates. You can also increase the intimacy quotient in your relationship by sending each other explicit notes or e-mails or by introducing sex toys into the bedroom.

Welcome to The Spanish Peaks Harp Retreat
September 24 - 28, 2014
The Spanish Peaks Harp Retreat is entering its 10
year of offering several days of multi-level harp workshops and instruction. Harp events are set in the midst of a full Celtic Festival in Southeast Colorado. This year, the festival occurs during Colorado's commemoration of the centennial of the Ludlow Massacre, a watershed moment in American labor relations. 2014 also marks the 700
anniversary of the Battle of Bannockburn, a major triumph in the Scottish historic fight for independence and the 1000
anniversary of the Battle of Clontarf, a fatal victory for the Irish. In keeping with the theme of resistance, conflict and loss, the Harp Retreat will focus on songs of protest, battle and lament from Scotland, Wales and Ireland.

"I came home from this year's retreat with Christina, Park, and Maire, absolutely filled with a sense of the living essence of music--in rhythm, tone, and effect, versus it just being the thing we do. Totally transforming. I'm a different musician now."
I have attended the Spanish Peaks harp retreat now for 8 years. Every workshop brings the best players from the Irish and the Scottish traditions. Each year, my understanding of the songs and the culture deepens. I really love the intimacy of our circle of players. We get to know each other in a smaller venue and we are able to converse with our teachers and get to know them too. Southern Colorado is absolutely gorgeous in the fall-the mountains and the skies. I would not miss it!
"This year, I learned so much from Christina, Park and Maire. The instruction from each teacher was personalized yet geared for everyone. During lunches and breaks I had ample opportunity to speak with each instructor and discuss ideas. (I know I am a better harp teacher for attending.) I wouldn't miss this weekend for anything.

New West goes East - Alumni Profiles
March 2010 Issue
George Fontaine Jr. (ABJ '04) shares his father's passion for music, love for the University of Georgia and Athens, and calling to discover young talent. Following in the footsteps of George Fontaine Sr. (BBA '76), owner of Austin, Texas-based recording label New West Records, the younger Fontaine now heads New West Records' Athens office, the company's new shipping and distribution operations center. Fontaine originally moved to Los Angeles to work for New West, but after a short stint devising marketing plans, helping with advertising and running street teams, he realized he missed living in the South. In 2006, Fontaine landed a job in Atlanta with Live Wire, working on radio promotions and getting music onto the airwaves. He says he would drive to New York to meet with radio stations and disc jockeys "just to have that crucial face-to-face interaction." "It was a far drive, but heading home and hearing them play our music on the radio… that was a …

Pakistan to free Taliban chief who may hold key to Afghan talks
A senior Taliban commander who the Afghan government believes could be key to brokering a political settlement in Afghanistan will be released later this month, Pakistan's most senior foreign affairs official has announced.
Islamabad has long-resisted demands by the Afghan president, Hamid Karzai, to free Abdul Ghani Baradar, the Taliban's former second-in-command, who it is hoped could initiate a peace process between Kabul and hardline rebels who once ruled the country.
Sartaj Aziz, the prime minister's foreign affairs adviser, said Pakistan had finally agreed to hand him over after an apparent improvement in the tempestuous relationship between the two countries.
An exact timeline for Baradar's release hasn't been decided; however, Sartaj Aziz has been quoted as saying that the Taliban leader is expected to be freed before the end of September. While many are hesitant to see an accused Taliban leader set free, many who are more familiar with the region are hailing the move as a step forward in Pakistan-Afghan relations.
