Jay Kay (born Jason Luís Cheetham;[1] 30 December 1969) is a Grammy Award-winning English musician, best known as the lead singer of the British funk/acid jazz band Jamiroquai.
Kay was born in Wangford, Suffolk, England.[2] Kay's mother, Karen Kay (born Adrianne Judith Pringle),[2] is a former cabaret singer and television personality. She is of Jewish descent. Jay Kay's biological father is Luís Saraiva, a Portuguese former professional guitarist,[3] whom Kay did not meet until 2001.
After Jay Kay's identical twin, David, died some weeks after they were born,[4] Karen brought Kay up largely alone, which gave him "an itinerant childhood, half of it living in 'rural Suffolk and rural Devon'", according to his 2010 The Daily Telegraph interview[5] and his 1994/1999 television interviews.[6] It is stated in the 1997 Lancashire Evening Telegraph article that Kay "moved with his mother and step-father Mervyn Kay to Manchester as a youngster."[7] James Royal, often misidentified as Kay's stepfather, is Karen Kay's former manager with whom she had a relationship some time during Kay's childhood years. Royal had stated in his 2002 interview in News of the World about 13-year-old Kay's six-month stay in Thailand that he never married Karen Kay, but "still regards" Kay as his "stepson".[8]
Kay attended Oakham School in Rutland.[9]
Kay formed Jamiroquai with members Toby Smith (keyboards), Stuart Zender (bass), Nick Van Gelder (drums) and Wallis Buchanan (didgeridoo) together with guest appearances by Gavin Dodds (guitar), Maurizio Ravelico (percussion) and Johnny Thirkell (horns) amongst others, both on the band's debut album and on their first tour.
Jamiroquai has sold over thirty million albums, and has spent a collective 162 weeks on the UK singles chart between 1992 and 2006 with Kay's personal wealth said to be around £40 million.[10] He appeared on the Sunday Times Rich List 2004 at joint-950th. The Sunday Times Rich List 2008 has him tied for #1,794, with £40 million.
After the huge success of Jamiroquai's first single, When You Gonna Learn, a US$1.9 million, eight album deal was signed with Sony Music Entertainment. The band's first album was Emergency on Planet Earth. The relationship with Sony ended in 2007.[11]
The band's third album, Travelling Without Moving, generated international attention with the ground breaking video of Virtual Insanity which earned Jamiroquai four MTV Video Music Awards. Since then, their fourth album, Synkronized, has done just as well; it was recorded in Kay's home studio located in the garden of his 500-year-old, 11-bedroom Buckinghamshire mansion.
Kay has previously stated that he would like his band to continue writing music for another 15–20 years. However it was reported in February 2007 that Kay had wanted to quit music.[11] This was denied on Jamiroquai's official website the day after.
Kay is well known for his array of elaborate hats and headgear. When appearing professionally (in concerts, interviews etc.) he has been referred to as "the mad hatter" for his love of headgear.[12] It is said that he has many different hats that he wears at concerts and in public.[13] He has stated publicly that some of them were made by his own mother.[citation needed]jKay's most recognisable headgear is his mirrored "feather headdress" seen on the cover of High Times: Singles 1992–2006.
Kay appeared in an episode of the BBC series The Naked Chef alongside chef Jamie Oliver. He has also performed on the series Strictly Come Dancing singing Canned Heat. He also appeared four times in the BBC car show Top Gear. The first appearance was in Series 1 episode 2, where he set a lap time of 1:48.1 for the show's "Star in a reasonably priced car", becoming the leading highscorer for the rest of the current and most of the next series. His second appearance was in Series 3 episode 4, where he drove his Lamborghini Miura with Richard Hammond as passenger. The third appearance was in Series 11 episode 6, where he came in to beat the top time held by Simon Cowell. He succeeded with a lap time of 1:45.8. Jay Kay won Top Gear's "John Sergeant Award" for the best dance after learning his time on the Top Gear test track and the fastest lap time in 2008.
The day before Jamiroquai performed their new single, White Knuckle Ride, on The X Factor on 31 October 2010, Kay was quoted by The Sun as saying of the show's judges Cheryl Cole and Dannii Minogue: "What are they going to tell me about fucking music? ... When have you ever done anything? You're useless. The pair of you. I mean you look great and I'd like to fucking shag you but that's all." During his performance on the show, the pair talked continuously and refused to applaud at the end. Notably, neither of the other two judges stood up either.[14]
In 2001, Kay was charged with assaulting a photographer and damaging his camera outside a nightclub. Kay pleaded not guilty and the charges were later dropped.[15] On 12 September 2006, Kay was cautioned by police over an incident outside a London nightclub. He allegedly assaulted two photographers.[16]
Kay is anti-religious.[17]
From 1998 to 2001, Kay dated Denise Van Outen. They were engaged and reported to be on the verge of marriage,[18] but split up in 2001; Jamiroquai's album A Funk Odyssey is mostly about their break-up.
In a 2010 interview, Kay indicated that at one time he had a "substantial" cocaine habit. He has however been free of drugs since 2003.[19]
Kay continues to support the Burma Campaign UK and the need for democracy in Burma. He is also a patron of the Captive Animals Protection Society, a charity campaigning for an end to the use of animals in circuses, zoos and exotic pet trade. He has spoken out against animal exploitation for entertainment.[20]
Kay has a strong interest in exotic cars and has owned over 60 luxury cars, mainly sports cars. His love of cars was expressed with the release of the album Travelling Without Moving. The album's cover featured an adaptation of the "Buffalo Man" logo and the Ferrari crest, In 2011 he visited Maranello for an exclusive viewing of the then-new Ferrari 458 Spider.[21] Three of his cars appeared in the video for the song Cosmic Girl. In total he has 68 vehicles, including what he calls "staff cars" and a 'one off' Ferrari.[22]
A combination of cars and music is also evident in the song Black Devil Car on the album Dynamite which is a tribute to his black Ferrari Enzo. The Enzo suffered damage to the windows after an altercation with hotel chef Aaron Billington at the Brudenell Hotel in Aldeburgh, Suffolk.[23]
In addition to his well-known large collection of Ferraris, Kay has more recently professed to becoming a fan of Porsche cars. He now owns a black 356 Speedster, a blue 911 Carrera RS, and a 911 GT3 RS in orange livery. A 1973 Porsche Carrera RS has been used in the clip of "White Knuckle Ride", one of the last singles of the band, included in their last album.
Kay's love of fast cars has occasionally landed him in legal trouble. In May 1998, Kay was caught driving at 111 mph (179 km/h) and his licence was suspended for 42 days. He said in an interview: "I should count myself lucky. I've clocked up 175 mph on a public road. If I'd been caught doing that, it would have been a prison sentence." He appeared in court in Scotland to face charges for speeding after being clocked at 105 mph (169 km/h) in a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, on 26 February 2004. The speed limit for the road was 70 mph (110 km/h). He was later banned from driving for six months.
Kay participated in the 2007 Gumball 3000 rally as part of Team Adidas in a brand new Maserati Quattroporte. In 2010 he took part in the Mille Miglia in his Maserati A6G/54.
He holds the record on the BBC show Top Gear for the fastest lap in the (now retired) Chevrolet Lacetti on the "Star in a Reasonably-Priced Car" segment. His time of 1:45.83 was four-hundredths of a second ahead of Kevin McCloud, one-tenth of a second ahead of Brian Johnson, lead singer of the rock band AC/DC, and one tenth of a second above then-leader, Simon Cowell. He was invited back as Cowell had been "on the top for long enough". Kay also competed in the Celebrity Challenge race at the 2012 Silverstone Classic finishing third behind Brian Johnson and Kelvin Fletcher.
Kay is also a motorcycle enthusiast and attended the Ace Cafe to see Charley Boorman off for his television series By Any Means. He rides a Rizla Suzuki GSXR-600. He owns a motorhome, and holds a C LGV (class 2) driving licence to drive it legally. He reportedly persuaded his close friend James Martin to also purchase one. Kay also leases a Robinson R44 helicopter, registration G-JKAY.
However, despite being known for his love of expensive cars, Jay Kay actually drives a 2003 Honda Accord in his day to day life. Saying of his Accord, "You can't eat Caviar everyday, sometimes you want chips".
At the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed, Kay showed off his bright green Ferrari LaFerrari, which is currently the only one in the world.[24]

Ridiculousness, emotions, and a lot of history jokes.
I went to school at the University of Chicago. Which is—it was a very dark and dismal place, at the time that I was a student there. It's a very good school, and a lot of smart people go there —we have a lot of Nobel prize winners— but it's not a very fun place to attend. It's on the south side of Chicago, it's very cold and very wintery. And at the time that I was there, we didn't even have a student center. There was a study that was commissioned by a group at Harvard, of the top 300 universities in the country, and they rated them according to various different criteria, like academic standards, and campus quality and social life. And we ranked 300 out of 300, right under the Naval Academy. It was just—the only social life occurred in the basement of the Regenstein library.
And then we had this one thing every year, which was the University of Chicago scavenger hunt, which was amazing. Everyone on campus participated for four days, in this thing, and they came out of their caves, and had an amazing time. And there were some great items on the scavenger hunt list for the University of Chicago. My girlfriend at the time was on another team —she was also a student there, she's now my wife— and she came into my room one night and said "hey, hey Mi—" I was one of the few kids at school who had a car, and she said, "hey, can I borrow your car?" And I said, "why do you wanna borrow my car?" And she said, "well, I found a place up in Wisconsin that's got some sheep." Because one of the items on the scavenger hunt list was three live sheep. And I said, "oh, no, you cannot borrow my car to go pick up—" you know, it was a sedan, with upholstered seats, I don't want her going to pick up sheep in it. She did end up waiting until I fell asleep and stealing the keys and taking my car anyway. And then the sheep spent the day in my car, unbeknownst to me. They didn't even bother to lay newspaper down. They were just, uh, grinding their own feces into the seats, and chewing on the upholstery.
Other items on that scavenger hunt list that year were a Hooters waitress. So a team would have to acquire a Hooters waitress and bring them to the event. But my wife went and got a job at Hooters, got hired, got the wardrobe, and then, you know, showed up herself. She was good at this.
So anyway, I had a great time doing those scavenger hunts at school. And then I got on a TV show, and I built up something of a Twitter following, and found that people would kind of, strangely, do whatever I said. It gave me this incredible sense of power, and I think that I started to take advantage of it, and I combined these two things —people doing what I say and my love of scavenger hunts— and started this little experiment, which totally took off. We now have three Guinness World Records under our belt in two years, which is pretty good.
Misha Collins on the origins of GISHWHES, during the Nerdist podcast (via separatedrain)
Some people seem to believe that the Cabal resents Misha Colins and his so-called "Greatest International Scavenger Hunt the World Has Ever Seen". Bah, we say. Do the organizers of the World's Largest Scavenger Hunt resent the creation of the World's Largest Media Scavenger Hunt? Does the mighty ox resent the gnat that lands upon his horn? Does the mighty ox even know what the heck a "Media Scavenger Hunt" is supposed to be anyways? Bah!
That said, anyone whose car has been ruined because his girlfriend filled it with sheep for Scav might be our kind of 10th male lead of Girl Interrupted.
The items he refers to are as follows:
1993.153: A flock of live sheep (3 or more) with a fraternity member as a shepherd.(150 points + 15 bonus points if aforementioned shepherd is grinning and holding the items in #60)
1993.265: A Hooters waitress in full uniform (69 points)
(1993.60 is, by the way, "condoms in all colors of the rainbow". If a photo exists of Castiel + Sheep + Feces Car + Rainbow Condoms, internet, don't fail me now!)
Question from an elderly poobah/emerita: has Mr. Collins ever been an item on the list? As far as "get this celebrity alumnus/student/staff/faculty" items go, he'd be a good get. Though if it were between him and, say, Anna Chlumsky (A.B. '02), I'd have to go with Anna.

text: Tracy Morgan's Humiliating GLAAD Re-Education Tour ... The Video! by John Nolte 21 Jun 2011 post a comment Share This: This Orwellian moment brought to you by GLAAD and their fascistic Leftist enablers so resembles Winston Smith's final confession in "1984," it seems too obvious to even reference it. The video below is a little blurry, so it's impossible to tell if Tracy Morgan's blinking some kind of S.O.S.... If he has any pride, he's blinking some closer to f-u-c-k-a-l-l-o-f-y-o-u: ----- Could anything be more un-American than a comedian being trotted around the country to apologize for his ... comedy? Talk about chilling free speech. Obviously the old saying about not agreeing with but still fighting to the death to defend someone's speech is all but dead on the Left, especially where the sentiment should be most true ... in the world of entertainment. What a bunch of sanctimonious cowards our entertainment class has become. At least when it came to the 1950s Blacklist, some in Hollywood actively sought ways to subversively fight and work around the injustice. Now they line up and pretend they're the morally righteous ones in defending and accepting it. Tracy Morgan is no conservative and no friend to conservatives, but what's being done to him is the most obscene thing to come out of Hollywood in my lifetime. And many of the sins are of omission from those too cowardly to speak out. History will not be any kind to this Hollywood generation. How pathetic. ADDED: A commenter makes a great point about how GLAAD fights bullying by becoming even bigger bullies. True that.

The Daily Dolphin
Tag: Ray Rice
Preview: 5 keys for the Miami Dolphins vs. the Houston Texans
- 9:12 am Friday, September 7th, 2012 by Post Staff
Five keys for the Dolphins in Sunday's game at Houston:
1. Protect the rookie QB.
Ryan Tannehill couldn't have drawn a much tougher assignment for his NFL debut – on the road, in a loud dome while facing last year's No. 2-ranked defense. The Dolphins need to keep him upright to have a chance, and the right side of the line is new and untested, with rookie RT Jonathan Martin and inconsistent RG John Jerry taking over this year. The Texans have a terrific pass rush with J.J. Watt, Connor Barwin, Brooks Reed and Whitney Mercilus, although Watt (elbow) and Reed (knee) are banged up.
2. Run the football again and again.
Don't expect Dolphins to use franchise tag on Paul Soliai this time around
- 2:53 pm Monday, February 20th, 2012 by Brian Biggane
Today is another one of those days NFL general managers have circled on their calendars. Starting today and through March 5, teams can put the franchise tag on their players, thus guaranteeing them a big payday while also assuring themselves they won't be playing elsewhere next season.
While some big names including New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees and Houston running back Arian Foster seem likely to be tagged, don't expect the Dolphins to use the designation after paying nose tackle Paul Soliai $12.5 million last season. Tagging Soliai once again would necessitate a 20 percent increase, taking his salary up to $15 million. Do that and you can forget Peyton Manning. And after all, which of those two would you rather have on your team?
It remains an open question whether Soliai was worth the over-the-top expenditure last year. Ireland wasn't sure what he had in the fifth-year pro, who had had an excellent 2010 season after being inconsistent his first three years. With the Dolphins committed to a 3-4 defense, Soliai became an important part of the Dolphin run defense that wound up third in the league and was a late addition to the AFC Pro Bowl roster. He certainly had the respect of his fellow D-linemen, who praised his performance at every turn.
Now, however, with signs pointing toward new defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle using a 4-3 as his base defense next season, Soliai's value in Miami has dropped and it seems unlikely he'll even return. [More]
Reports: Enigmatic Ricky Williams calling an end to 11-year NFL career
- 2:56 pm Tuesday, February 7th, 2012 by Brian Biggane
Ricky Williams, one of the most talented but also enigmatic players in Dolphin history, has decided to retire, according to multiple reports.
Williams, who rushed for 10,009 yards in an 11-year career with New Orleans, Miami and Baltimore, kept his followers confused to the end, sending out a tweet Tuesday that read: "Thank you all, but this ain't it, I'm gonna do something really special. 'Be you and change the world.'"
Williams spent six seasons with the Dolphins and finished with 6,436 yards, second only to Larry Csonka (6,737) on the all-time list. He holds franchise records for most carries in a career (1,509) and season (392, 2003), yards in a game (228, 2002) and rushing touchdowns in a season (16, 2002). He also has the franchise record for 100-yard games in a career with 24 and a season with 10, also in 2002. [More]
Chicago Bears WR Devin Hester calls NFL's new kickoff rule 'foolish,' and 10 other things we learned at Anquan Boldin's Q-Fest
- 10:45 am Saturday, April 16th, 2011 by Post Staff
Had a great time last night at Q-Fest, the seventh annual charity basketball game held by Baltimore Ravens star and Pahokee native Anquan Boldin. About 20 NFL stars came out to Pahokee High to sign autographs and play some hoops in front of about 2,000 fans.
You can read my recap of the evening by Clicking Here, and check out some great photos from the event by Clicking Here.
But there were a few items, mostly football-related, that didn't make it into today's newspaper.
Among them….
1) Bears receiver Devin Hester, who has four career kickoff return touchdowns and took five of his 12 returns back 40-plus yards in 2010, is not at all pleased with the NFL's new kickoff rule, which will move the ball up 5 yards to the 35 and increase the number of touchbacks.
"I think it's just a foolish rule," said Hester, a native of Riviera Beach. "It's like they don't have nothing better to do than come up with a rule like that. There's 1,000 rules they could've come up with before that rule."
Miami Dolphins Talking Points: Darren McFadden a dual-threat headache
- 7:30 am Friday, November 26th, 2010 by Brian Biggane
The Dolphins practice this morning, then board a plane for the five-hour flight to the Bay Area this afternoon, staying in downtown San Francisco before busing over to Oakland for Sunday's game against the Raiders. A certain running back figures to have their attention, which is where we start our Friday morning talking points.
1. Darren McFadden is the best dual threat running back the Dolphins have faced since Ray Rice.
Rice gouged the Dolphin defense for 180 all-purpose yards, including 83 on 22 carries and another 97 on seven receptions, as Baltimore whipped Miami 26-10 three weeks ago. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound McFadden, who ranks second in the NFL in all-purpose yards with 128.6 scrimmage yards per game, is a bigger and more dangerous version of the diminutive Rice. [More]
Dolphins Rewind: Players don't come off well by not giving Ravens credit for their win
- 3:22 pm Tuesday, November 9th, 2010 by Post Staff
Most of the Dolphins' players and coaches took responsibility for Sunday's 26-10 loss, and gave the Ravens credit for thoroughly dominating them in the second half.
"We could've done a lot of things better," Vontae Davis said.
"Give the Ravens credit, they're a good football team," Ronnie Brown said.
"They whooped our (butt)," Channing Crowder said.
Then there were Karlos Dansby and Ricky Williams, who somehow came away from Sunday's game unimpressed with the Ravens.
"The feeling I had after the game was, 'Wow, we are better than this team … that they're not better than us,'" Williams said Monday night on his weekly WQAM radio show. "Physically on the football field, it wasn't like they beat us."
The numbers say otherwise. Miami's defense had several season-worst performances Sunday:
Miami Dolphins Talking Points: Channing Crowder needs to just play
- 9:49 am Tuesday, November 9th, 2010 by Brian Biggane
Channing Crowder can't seem to help himself – controversy follows him wherever he goes. But the need for Crowder to shut up and play football is where we start our Tuesday morning talking points:
1. Spit or no spit, Crowder needs to concentrate on the task at hand.
Crowder is a media delight with his larger-than-life personality and nonstop quotes. He's been less than delightful on the field so far this season, however, with only 14 tackles and one pass defensed in four games since getting past his groin injury.

Job For A Cowboy Announce Release Show
Glendale, AZ extreme metal unit JOB FOR A COWBOY has announced a San Antonio record release show to celebrate the arrival of its eagerly anticipated debut album, "GENESIS". The event is scheduled for the evening of May 15, 2007 at local hard rock venue The White Rabbit.
Sponsored by San Antonio area HOT TOPIC locations, the record release show will spotlight one of heavy music's fastest rising young bands in JOB FOR A COWBOY. The band has come to regard San Antonio as a "home away from home" recently, as support for JFAC in the city has been second to none over the course of past tour visits. San Antonio metal fans flooded the White Rabbit on the band's last visit to town, easily selling out the 1000 seat venue.
Additionally, the band has announced that an exclusive month-long pre-order package has been made available at all area HOT TOPIC locations to fans that secure their copy of "GENESIS" prior to its May 15 street date. The JOB FOR A COWBOY pre-order "bundle" includes the band's full-length debut CD and a JFAC T-shirt -- exclusive to this promotion -- for only twenty dollars. Adding to the special package, the first 500 JOB FOR A COWBOY fans to pre-order the "GENESIS" bundle will receive a free ticket to the record release show.
JOB FOR A COWBOY, who toured the world in 2006 in support of their wildly-popular, self-financed "DOOM" EP, recorded "GENESIS" at Blue Light Audio Media in Phoenix, AZ with producer Cory Spotts. The album was mixed by the Grammy winning Andy Sneap (OPETH, ENTOMBED, MEGADETH).
The brand new JFAC song "Embedded", as well as a sneak peak at the GENESIS cover artwork can be found on the band's MySpace page.

Shadows Fall Confirmed For SOTU 2007 Tour
Shadows Fall will be joining the Sounds of the Underground Tour this summer alongside GWAR, Chimaira, Job For A Cowboy, and Every Time I Die.
Vocalist Brian Fair had this to say about the tour:
"It is going to be another summer of insanity for the boys in Shadows Fall, and we couldn't be more stoked. Not only are we looking forward to partying with our friends in Darkest Hour, Every Time I Die, Chimiara and Gwar, but also to check out some killer music at one of the summer's most diverse festival tours. We are planning on playing a set that will include songs from the early days of Shadows Fall up to our new album THREADS OF LIFE and leaving a wake of devastation behind. So bust out the sun screen, put the beers on ice and get ready to rock 'cuz the SHADS are coming back to town."
Once again, here are the latest Sounds of the Underground 2007 tour dates: More...
Job For A Cowboy Confirmed For Download, SOTU 2007
Fast-rising extreme metal unit JOB FOR A COWBOY has announced both North American and United Kingdom festival dates in support of their eagerly anticipated debut album, "GENESIS". The band, known for their punishing songs, explosive live performances and forward thinking vision, will release "GENESIS" on May 15 via Metal Blade Records.
JOB FOR A COWBOY will perform amongst the featured artists at England's massive Download Festival, set to take place June 8, 9 and 10. JFAC have been added to the three day festival amongst a hot list of artists that includes Lamb of God, Marilyn Manson, Motley Crue, Shadows Fall, Turbonegro, Velvet Revolver and Wolfmother. The Download Festival is a three day music fest held annually at the spiritual home of rock music in England: Donington Park (which hosted the Monsters of Rock Festivals between 1980 and 1996, and 2002's Ozzfest).
Furthermore, JOB FOR A COWBOY will perform live as part of the 2007 "Sounds of the Underground" tour, set to launch Friday, July 6 in Dallas, TX. The band joins the third installment of the cutting edge annual trek alongside Every Time I Die, Amon Amarth, Darkest Hour, Goatwhore, The Number Twelve Looks Like You and more.
JOB FOR A COWBOY, who toured the world in 2006 in support of their wildly-popular, self-financed "DOOM" EP, recorded "GENESIS" at Blue Light Audio Media in Phoenix, AZ with producer Cory Spotts. The album was mixed by the Grammy winning Andy Sneap (OPETH, ENTOMBED, MEGADETH). Anticipation for "GENESIS" is such that the band has already been named one of "Metal's Most Important Troops for 2007" by Metal Hammer, one of Total Guitar's "Hottest Guitar Bands of 2007", one of Alternative Press' 2007 "Bands You Need to Know" and one of Revolver's "Breakthrough Bands that will be Kicking Your Ass this Year".
On the topic of the new album, JOB FOR A COWBOY guitarist Ravi Bhadriraju comments, "Genesis is a record that we as a band needed to fulfill. We wrote an album that we wanted to play live well into the distant future. If there is one word to describe our new record, it is "aggressive". We want this album to have a certain effect on the listener. I am happy with what we have achieved, and I hope our fans appreciate it too."
Vocalist Jonny Davy states, "We wrote the material that became the "Doom" EP at a very young age and the sound of this upcoming record is a much different one than anything we've done before. We're anxious for its release and we hope everyone who hears it will enjoy."
The final track listing for GENESIS is as follows:
1. Bearing The Serpent's Lamb
2. Reduced to Mere Filth
3. Altered From Catechization
4. Upheaval
5. Embedded
6. Strings of Hypocrisy
7. Martyrdom Unsealed
8. Blasphemy
9. The Divine Falsehood
10. Coalescing Prophecy
The brand new JFAC song "Embedded", as well as a sneak peak at the GENESIS cover artwork can be found on the band's MySpace page. More...
Chimaira Announce SOTU 2007 Participation
CHIMAIRA frontman Mark Hunter announced from the stage at the band's concert in Chicago Sunday night (April 8) that they will take part in the third annual Sounds of the Underground tour, set to take place this summer. As previously reported, GWAR has been confirmed as the headliner of this year's event, according to a posting on the group's web site. Other acts that are rumored to be playing the festival include SHADOWS FALL, JOB FOR A COWBOY and EVERY TIME I DIE. An official announcement regarding this summer's lineup is expected soon.
The second annual Sounds of the Underground tour featured performances by AS I LAY DYING, IN FLAMES, TRIVIUM, CANNIBAL CORPSE, GWAR, TERROR, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, BEHEMOTH, THE CHARIOT and THROUGH THE EYES OF THE DEAD, among others.
The Sounds of the Underground organizers took a different approach to last summer's festival by keeping the number of bands on the bill down and extending the length of set times. In 2005 most bands got no more than 30 minutes to play.
Unearth Party w/ Aqua Teen Hunger Force Pre-Tour
UNEARTH were the main attraction at last week's Adult Swim's Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theatres launch party in Austin TX.
UNEARTH have recorded the song "THE CHOSEN" for the forthcoming Aqua Teen Hunger Force feature film, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters ( in theaters on 4/13/2007) and the accompanying soundtrack Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters Colon The Soundtrack (in stores on 4/10/2007).
Straight after their stint in Austin, TX, the band headed to Europe to join forces with DAATH, DESPISED ICON, and Metal Blade Record's newest member to the family, JOB FOR A COWBOY on a tour that will lead into late April.
"We are all eager as fuck to headline the UK and Europe for the first time. We have done some amazing European tours before, but it will feel damn good to play a full set and put on our show for our friends overseas" says vocalist, Trevor Phipps "We are hitting up some smaller venues, most without barricades, so we can bring a real Unearth show to the people. We hand picked Job For a Cowboy, Despised Icon and Daath to make sure the entire bill was one that will keep the crowds looking over their shoulders at all times!"
UNEARTH will then make their way back to the US for the highly anticipated tour with DIMMU BORGIR, DEVILDRIVER and KATAKLYSM.
"After the headlining run we come right back home for a North American tour with Dimmu Borgir, Devildriver and Kataklysm. We haven't hit the road with Dimmu since the 2004 Ozzfest, so it will be good to get out there and do it again in a club setting. Devil Driver is always a great band to share the stage with and Kataklysm is one of the best death metal bands around today" enthuses Phipps "This tour is going to be an un-fucking-real diverse clash of heavy music... good times ahead!"
Check out UNEARTH on tour on the following dates: More...

JFAC guitarist, Ravi Bhadriraju had this to say about his new band mate:
"Jon's Badass. His demo was awesome and we felt that after meeting and talking to other drummers that his personality fit best with ours. In addition to an awesome drummer, we needed someone who wants what we want and that is to tour as much as possible and he is down with that. We have no plans to stop and I'm glad we get to do that with the comfort of knowing we brought the right dude with us and that he feels the same."
New drummer, Jon agrees:
"For me it's a dream come true. It's one of those things where you take a chance and send a demo over and then your life is changed. I'm really looking forward to living on the road. I've lived in Pittsburgh forever and starting in a few weeks I will be living the dream and seeing the world."
Job For A Cowboy just recently completed work on their Metal Blade Records debut which will be out in the Spring/Summer of 2007. The band is now gearing up for a month long trek with The Acacia Strain, See You Next Tuesday, Daath and label mates PSYOPUS. The tour starts January 12th in Menomonee Falls, WI.

Vocalist Vincent Bennett has offered a bulky band update via the band's MySpace page:
"Hello everyone in heavyland. Vincent here with a large update. We haven't spoken in a while so I figured I'd bring you guys up to speed. The Daniel [Dan Daponde, guitar] has bowed out gracefully. For those of you have been asking about Daniel J. Daponde, here are your answers: due to health problems, Dan has been forced to leave his position as a badass guitar player in The Acacia Strain. We miss him a whole bunch, and we are sure you all do as well. Wish him luck in his future endeavors!"
"We are NOT currently looking for a replacement. Please stop asking. When we do end up looking for another guitarist, we will let you know. For now, here is what you might want to strive for:
1. At LEAST one year of tour experience as a musician
2. Commitment to us and the road, we are never home.
3. A good attitude!
4. Willingness and the ability to write music.
"There is more, but like I said...We aren?t really looking right now. DL [Daniel Laskiewicz] is doing pretty well on his own.
"The tour with Through The Eyes of The Dead, From A Second Story Window, and Light This City was fucking amazing! Thanks to all who came out and had a good time! See you again in January/February! Speaking of which, we are touring in Jan/Feb with Job For A Cowboy, Psyopus, See You Next Tuesday and Daath! DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO MAKE IT TO ONE OF THESE SHOWS. It?s going to be bruuuuuutal.

Please do not send your own personal interpretations of the song, the band just wants to make sure you can play what is heard on the CD. The band would also like to see another video of you drumming showcasing whatever you'd like. Once you've done that you can email Job for a Cowboy at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Job For A Cowboy Interview Online
Brokenbroadcast has posted an interview with Johnny, vocalist for much raved-about metallers Job For A Cowboy. Excerpts from the interview follow:
BB: You guys participated on a few selected dates of The Sounds of the Underground tour and the Beers and Steers Tour, talk about that.
Johnny: We left late May to kick off the Steers And Beer tour, but before that we did a few weeks worth of the dates of the Necrophagist and Arsis tour. The Necrophagist tour was a bit shaky with our new guitar player, Bobby, he only had a few weeks to learn our set, but thankfully hes a great guitar player and got in the swing of things in just a few shows. The tour was great, packed shows every night. As soon as that was done we jumped in and started the Steers and Beers tour with Cattle Decapitation, Misery Index, From A Second Story Window and Animosity. We were surprised over how well the shows were doing, we had alot of fun and we miss those guys really badly. It ran straight for 2 months, I think there was only one day off of the entire tour. After months of touring we had a day off at home, and then we jumped on 3 of the Sounds Of The Underground dates. It was amazing playing with alot of our favorite bands, just being peers with them. We hope we can do the entire tour next summer.
BB: Is there any information on a new record?
Johnny: Well, after this over three months of touring and signing to Metalblade we came home to take a break from playing shows. Taking a break to write our debut full length to get released on Metalblade. If all works out, we're heading in the studio late November to start recording, and then hopefully a few months after that it will be in stores.
BB: What are tour plans for the future? Is there anything lined up for fall?
Johnny: Tour plans right now are still up in the air, we just plan on heading back on tour in January to support our full length.
BB: What is the goal for the band and how do you see yourselves fulfilling it?
Johnny: We just hope that we can keep doing what we love, and hope we can gain some fans out of it. There really isnt a better feeling out there.

Weekly pub quiz mondays @ El Farol
Simply, a quiz game played in a pub. It's an Anglo-Irish tradition, but our goal is the same: to foster friendly competition, and promote social drinking. A noble cause!
The quiz consists of eight rounds of eight questions each, played by teams of up to six people. Questions are read aloud by the quizmaster and teams write down the answers, turning them in at the end of each round.
Rounds 1, 4 and 6 are themed rounds – anything from "Eight Questions About Sex That Won't Make You Too Uncomfortable" to "TV Shows Your Parents Watch." Round 2 is a music round worth double points: name the artist and title for each song clip. Round 3 is a multiple choice round or a speed round. Round 5 is a visual round based on a printed handout. The all-audio Round 7 usually covers movies or TV shows, and is worth the standard eight points. Finally, Round 8 is always 16 points on Random Knowledge.
One round can be jokered, doubling your points for that round only (yes, the 16-point rounds are fair game). The team with the most points after eight rounds is the winner.

HIGH-RISK PREGNANCY :: Thyroid Conditions
Postpartum Thyroiditis
What is postpartum thyroiditis?
In addition to playing an important role in the development of a growing fetus, proper thyroid hormone levels also help to minimize the chance of any thyroid complications after delivery. One particular postpartum complication is postpartum (after delivery) thyroiditis, a condition characterized by an inflamed thyroid gland. Postpartum thyroiditis is not a typical infection, however, the gland does become inflamed due to a response to an injury of the gland, of which the cause is unknown. Postpartum thyroiditis is a postpartum condition that results in temporary hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) or hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). Postpartum thyroiditis is fairly common. In fact, 5 to 7 percent of women worldwide develop the disease after giving birth, according to the American Thyroid Association.
Who is at risk for postpartum thyroiditis?
Certain risk factors may help predict who is at an increased risk for developing postpartum thyroiditis, according to the American Thyroid Association. These include the following:
What are the symptoms of postpartum thyroiditis?
When the thyroid becomes inflamed, it will first emit large quantities of thyroid hormone into the bloodstream (hyperthyroidism). During this phase, most women are unaware of any symptoms, which are often mild and short-lived. However, once this initial phase passes, a woman either recovers completely or has sustained damage to her thyroid. If the thyroid gland was damaged, this damage, together with a depleted reservoir of thyroid hormones, can lead to hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). This condition, too, may also clear up or result in further damage and complications.
The following are the most common symptoms of hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism that accompany postpartum thyroiditis. However, each women may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Postpartum thyroiditis symptoms usually do not appear until three to eight months after childbirth. The symptoms are also often mistaken for normal signs of recovery from childbirth or other medical conditions. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
How is postpartum thyroiditis diagnosed?
Diagnostic procedures utilized to detect postpartum thyroiditis depend on the phase of the disease. If symptoms of hyperthyroidism are present, a radioactive iodine uptake test can often determine whether it is postpartum thyroiditis or Graves disease, the most common form of hyperthyroidism. In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination, diagnostic procedures for postpartum thyroiditis may include a blood test to measure levels of thyroid hormones (T4) and thyroid-stimulating hormones (TSH) can usually determine whether the mother has hypothyroidism.
Treatment for postpartum thyroiditis:
Specific treatment for postpartum thyroiditis will be determined by your physician based on:
If the postpartum thyroiditis is in the hyperthyroidism (or initial) phase, treatment is usually not necessary. However, if the condition progresses and symptoms of hypothyroidism become evident, thyroid hormone replacement therapy may be considered.

Sounding Out! Podcast #24: The Raitt Street Chronicles: A Survivor's History
CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD: The Raitt Street Chronicles: A Survivor's History
Listen in as Kevin Cabrera, Nancy Charco, Monica Gonzalez, Jesus Lopez, Javier Morales, Marcus Medina Mendoza, Cynthia Zul, Jasmine Soto, Pablo Montoya, Alex Mendoza, Marilynn Montaño, Robert Salas, and Isabel Marin guide us through the soundscapes of Raitt Street, their neighborhood in Santa Ana. If you are interested in learning more about the Raitt Street Chronicles please listen to this interview with Manny Escamilla, the archivist for the Santa Ana History Room at the Santa Ana Public Library. Also, check out the Raitt Street Chronicles website where you can find narrated photojournals by the authors of this podcast.
This podcast was made possible through different individuals and institutions dedicated to the histories of Santa Ana. The Santa Ana Public Library partnered with Cal State Fullerton's Grand Central Art Center and the Studio for Southern California History to train teens to collect oral histories from the Townsend/Raitt neighborhood. Project mentors trained youth participants to collect, archive, and share the underreported stories of survival from one the nation's most at-risk communities. Over the course of 12 months the participants recorded video interviews with survivors of violence. Community impactful projects like this are made possible through the generous support of foundations, corporate sponsorships, and the generosity of individuals who believe in the mission and purpose of such collaborative efforts. This collaboration with Santa Ana Public Library has been fortunate to receive support from a Cal Humanities 2013 Community Stories grant, but additional funding and in-kind support is needed to realize this project, as well as other projects in the works, to their fullest and most positive impactful outcomes.
Manuel "Manny" Escamilla – Is the archivist for the Santa Ana History Room at the Santa Ana Public Library. He received an AA from Santa Ana College in 2006, a BA in History from UC Berkeley in 2008, and is in the first year of his MLIS at UCLA as an Inland Empire LEADS fellow. He has interned the Emma Goldman Papers at UC Berkeley, the Special Collections Department at UCI, and the Chicano Research Center at UCLA. With the aid of a 2008 McNair Scholarship, Manny organized an independent research project at the U.K. National Archives in London. As the archivist for the Santa Ana History Room he has concentrated on increasing the archives collection of historically underrepresented minorities and creating innovative youth outreach programming for the 'Teen Community Historians.' As a 2010 Eureka fellow he completed the "Our Lives Our History" project that helped youth volunteers collect 35 oral history interviews of recent immigrants from various states of Mexico. He is currently the Project Director for 'The Raitt Street Chronicles: A Survivors' Oral History' and the upcoming 'Santa Ana Civic Archive: Connecting Future Leaders to their Community's Civic Past.' Additionally he serves as the Programming Chair for UCLA's Student Chapter of the Society of American Archivists and is an active member of OC REFORMA.
Since earning her PhD in History from the University of Southern California (USC) in 2002, Sharon Sekhon has explored the integration of critical local history into public discourse. Over 2003 – 2005, Sekhon was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Multimedia Literacy at the Annenberg Center for Communication at USC. There, she worked with faculty in developing discipline-driven, multimedia scholarship and curricula. She was the Principal Investigator for the Holiday Bowl History Project, a place-based, cross institutional online oral history project on the Holiday Bowl bowling alley in the Crenshaw neighborhood of Los Angeles. Sekhon founded the history organization the Studio for Southern California History (Studio) in 2006. The Studio uses participatory methods to create conversations about our shared spaces across Southern California. The Studio's work is showcased on the LA History Archive at www.lahistoryarchive.org.

As explained on their site: "The Center for Cultural Analysis [is] Rutgers University's hub for interdisciplinary research in the humanities and humanistically-oriented social sciences. Each year we run a biweekly seminar that draws faculty, advanced graduate students, post-doctoral researchers and various affiliated scholars into a sustained conversation on a topic of importance. In 2012-13 our seminar topic is "Formalisms." What do we talk about when we talk about form, particularly across disciplines? Is form simply a residue or remainder after everything else, from motive to content, is taken away or accounted for? Or is it rather the ultimate and most important outcome?"
Jonathan Skinner founded and edits the journal ecopoetics, which features creative-critical intersections between writing and ecology. Skinner also writes ecocriticism on contemporary poetry and poetics: he has published essays on Charles Olson, Ronald Johnson, Lorine Niedecker, Mei-mei Berssenbrugge, Bernadette Mayer, Cecilia Vicuña, translations of French poetry and garden theory, essays on bird song from the perspective of ethnopoetics, and essays on horizontal concepts such as the Third Landscape and on Documentary Poetry. Currently, he is writing a book of investigative poems on the urban landscapes of Frederick Law Olmsted, and a book on Animal Transcriptions in contemporary poetry. He teaches poetry and poetics in the Department of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Warwick.

This is the second post in Sounding Out!'s July forum on listening in observation of World Listening Day on July 18th, 2013. World Listening Day is a time to think about the impacts we have on our auditory environments and, in turn, its affects on us. To read last week's post by Regina Bradley (and to read more about World Listening Day) click here.
When I travel to somewhere I'm unfamiliar with to create a work, I've become in the habit of bringing my VLF receiver, hydrophones, and underwater camera in order to explore. Whether what comes out ultimately becomes part of the work or not, my interest in these particular tools stems from a fascination with obscure events around me, real and happening, that I cannot perceive. But it also marks my wonder at events and elements in our world that have been, while changing, continuous in a time line extending much further than my own. Similar to the sense one may get when experiencing a desert, or an ocean, with time and patience, what might at first seem bleak, barren, or monotonous, begins to give hint to a rich world hidden from our day to day.
Two autumns ago, finding myself with a day off from a project I was working on near Penzance in Cornwall, I decided to take the day to hike the lesser known British arm of the Santiago Pilgrim Route: the St. Michael's Way. Dating back tens of thousands of years, St. Michael's Way enabled pilgrims and missionaries traveling from Ireland or Wales to choose to abandon their ships and walk across the peninsula, rather than navigating the treacherous waters around Land's End. In the days of such pilgrimmages, the way was fraught with all sorts of dangers, and the path itself splits a few times, veering off towards a church near the harbor where they would get the boat to cross them. There they would meet a guide who would offer safe passage from the many thieves and pirates along the way. Still marked with the iconic scallop shell symbol of the pilgrim route, the path was nevertheless neglected, and overrun with all sorts of modern obstacles such as busy roads and farm irrigation systems.
As I got lost time and time again making my way towards Saint Ives, I found myself marveling at all sorts of new and heretofore unknown sensations. My ears tuned from the project I was there working on, I was especially taken by the sound. Toward the middle of the path–located at the top of the hills inland of the peninsula –the wind from both sides carried over pieces of the day to day from the villages; a tractor, grazing animals, bits of conversation in Cornish, and church bells wisping by as quickly as they came, like ghosts. It is fitting that St Michael, after whom the route was named, is the patron saint of high places.
I began to wonder what this path may have sounded like back in the time of thieves and pirates, back when the occasion to use it was a shared occasion celebrated with the voices of people, priests, prayers, and the markets and fairs along the way to fuel all this activity. As I continued walking, I began to wonder how it may have sounded even before then, before the hills were blanketed with crops and cattle, before the many battles that must have been waged, and villages built and grazed. . .were there more birds then? Were there more trees? Were there more boar and foxes? What about even before these hills were hills, could there be a way to sonify these hills forming? I started to dream of a "wayback machine" for sound. What if as you walked this path, you could listen to time spinning back, listen to how it might have sounded, listen to its history? And what could you take from that experience? Could something be taken from this? In the two years since that happenstance, this idea has since stuck with me. Beginning tentative research and practice to apply these thoughts, I continue to unearth more questions than answers, so I began to seek others experimenting in a similar vein. While acoustic ecology is a growing field, I still have not found many researchers working with sound in/as time.
One person who has come close to this idea is acoustic ecologist, musician, and sound recordist Bernie Krause, whom last year I interviewed in an article on the sound of disaster about disappearing sounds as a signal of impending crises. The prelude of Krause's book The Great Animal Orchestra: Finding the Origins of Music in the World's Wild Places, is the beautifully written, "Echoes of the Past," which takes a meandering listen to how the world might have sounded sixteen thousand years ago. With that trip in mind, perhaps something could come from working with people in various fields of statistical analysis to see what sounds are projected to go extinct from a soundscape with time, and what this could mean in terms of how the sound line will be extended into the future. In the section "First Notes," Krause describes working with a graduate student, Kristin Junette, who reasoned that based on fossil records and the known sounds of insect species today, we might be able to re-create the insect ambience of about sixty-five million years ago. Then, based on acoustic physiology of the skull of a Hadrosaur, a dinosaur of the time, Krause and Junette were able to re-create a representative vocalization of its call to place in this early soundscape (for the Discovery Channel's vision of how the hadrosaur might have sounded click here).
I was also excited to learn of the research of Miriam Kolar, who has been working with various techniques and with people in various disciplines on a team studying and "recreating" the acoustic architecture of the Chavín de Huántar, a 3,000 year old ceremonial center, predating the Inca in the Peruvian Andes. Chavín de Huántar is a complex underground maze of rooms and twisting corridors connected by air-ducts. When they were being excavated, archeologists noticed the rooms played strange acoustic tricks on them. "This environment is not only a physical maze, but it's a sound maze," says Kolar. For one example, some rooms have interconnected spaces that multiply echoes and bounce them back to the ear so rapidly that the sounds appear to emanate from all directions at once, while other areas seem designed for absorption. The team has been using 3-D computer modeling and specialized recording equipment to try and recreate the auditory effect. "If you have archaeology and no acoustics, you're deaf," says archaeoacoustician David Lubman. "And if you have acoustics and not the other, you're blind. You need both" to understand ancient places like Chavín.
Inspired in part by the research of Krause and Kolar, "Passageira em Casa/The Traveller at Home," one of my projects from the two years since my walk in Cornwall, begins to explore the notion of the wayback machine with sound in geography. Passageira em Casa is an intermedia and interdisciplinary performance inspired by the journey to define the concept of home. The narrative is a partially fictionalized and personalized account of the Maritime history of Portugal, enacted by a dancer, vocal performer, live video, and live electronic sound composition that creates a geography through the narrative and space of the project. From a dawn chorus in Lisbon to underwater earthquakes in the Pacific, field recordings along a maritime navigation route flow throughout the performance, giving a soundscape to the narrative's location.
The recent Australian version "Passageira australis" begings to explore sound in time. Recently developed at the iAir residency at RMIT, holds a focus on the debate behind whether the Portuguese were the first Europeans to arrive in Australia, based on the 16th century Dieppe maps of Jave la Grande and the myth/history of the Mahogany Ship. The soundtrack reveals a soundline based on the impact on flora, fauna, and overall soundscape on both countries.
A two channel composition, different then stereo, one speaker represents Europe, the other Australia. As the dancer, our sailor, moves from one end of the space to the other, the sound in each channel is changed based on her approximate location to each "country". With this experience, my hope is the audience comes away thinking about interconnectivity of the world, and how we impact the places we touch. Although I will continue to research when I return to Australia, already the project had me working with a map historian at the Victoria State Library, as well as consulting the thesis of geologist Andrew Pickering on using GIS technology to search for the location and story behind the presumed mythological Mahogany Ship.
Based on hearing, listening (from an anthropological point of view) is the very sense of space and of time. . .By her noises, Nature shudders with meaning: at least this is how, according to Hegel, the ancient Greeks listened to her. The oaks of Dodona, by the murmur of their boughs, uttered prophecies, and in other civilizations as well. . .noises have been the immediate raw materials of a divination, cledonomancy: to listen is, in an institutional manner, to try to find out what is happening. –Roland Bathes, "Listening"
Sound has a special importance to emotion, instinct, and memory, both individual and historical.. Hitting the oldest part of our brain, sound provides immediate information telling us where we are, whether it is safe, and how we should feel about it. The wayback machine would function as a sonic database that would not only help us to remember and learn about the past, but also to create new experiences within the complexity of changing soundscapes over a period that usually defies our human comprehension. I see this tool being helpful to researchers in many disciplines as a new kind of living archive, but also having a place in libraries, museums, centers, and perhaps "in the field" along paths such as the Santiago's Way, where one could download an audio file from the map online, then listen with wonder and unique sensation as they walk back through history.

Author's Note: A version of this post was presented at Musique et Écologies du Son/ Music and Ecologies of Sound: Theoretical and Practical Projects for the Listening of the World, Universitê Paris 8, May 2013. I slightly changed the original title of the paper to: "Sound through time, space, AND place." Frank Vanclay said quite nicely in "Place Matters." "'Place" is generally conceived as being 'space' imbued with meaning. Thus, it refers more to the meanings that are invested in a location than to the physicality of the locality." He goes on to state sometimes it's the biophysical characteristics that make the foundation for those personal meanings.

Good. So now that the heat of the moment is passed...
I said in a previous that I watched your top link and made my point about Tucker but I will admit to you, mentally I think I avoided something. Maybe it was your bottom link. I do now recall having mentally blocked something out, a presentation where I was like...
Gary? What the heck? What the...no...no...no.
It was a cosmic face-palm moment. If that's a point of concession, I make it now. There was this moment. Like O...M...F...G you did not just do that. Like YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. OK, you got that on me. And no, please don't remind me of the specifics, it takes a lot of booze to completely block something out and my liver needs a rest just now.
Perhaps the answer is simple tribalism on my part. When a bro falls I try to pick them up, when a bro is attacked I defend them. I guess that's my second admission if you will take it as such.
These two quids pro-quo for your honesty, candor and showing the amenability to peace. So at the very least you have not made an new enemy in me.
Keep on keepin it on!
There is nothing strange about having a bar of soap in your right pocket, it's just what's happening.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Very disappointed! My child was enrolled at Century and following a sporting event I read some facebook posts made by some students at CHS. The students at this school were vile and ranted and raved about things that nobody should every be proud of. Needless to say, my child transferred days later.
Pretty good school. Nice facility and great teachers. My only problem is that the school is built on a hill like a prison complex near the freeway. No way out! All joking aside though. It's a great school.
Century is overall the best school in Pocatello and lots of room to keep growing. We have the best academics, as compared to Highland and Poky. Our sports aren't that great though.
Basically this place has the best building in the world. There are nice teachers, programs, and students. Everyone is involved. Plus their band is one of the best in the state!
We have had children or grandchildren attend all three High Schools, all of the Middle Schools and several of the elementary schools in Pocatello as well as we have lived in several other states over the years. Century High School is far and above the finest school we have been associated with. Leadership is excellent, sports is no different here than anywhere else as far as the politics go. One area I think needs improvement is parent support, Diamondbackers booster club participation is terrible, we need to do better for the sake of the exceptional students that attend CHS. Main area of concern is the school budget, it is sad to have such a fine school and not have it fully staffed and funded! Go Diamondbacks!
Century High School offers a generally adequate level of teachers. Most seem to be there for the benefit of the children as opposed to the paycheck. Sports programs are questionable, with coaching staffs that are degrading and intimidating, not only to the athletes but also to the parents. Promises are made and never kept. Good athletes are driven away from sports they excel in by coaching staffs interested only in the win as opposed to the enhancement of the skills. Questions from parents result in the athlete being threatened as to remaining on the team.
Cetury High has been one of the best high school in south east Idaho, but sadly it is slowy starting to change. My son went there for the past three years, and enjoyed it. He said that the admistration there was superior to the other high school in town, because they made you fell like they care. They made me believe it too. But hopefully the school will stop changing and the students start making a difrence and stop the cliques, lead the freshmen to respect the school and save it. The administation can [not] do it by themselves.
Century has the highest level of fairness and teacher involvment I have witnessed. The administration of CHS is excellent!
