(Otto Greule Jr/Getty Images)Free-agent starter Josh Johnson let the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants know early on in the free-agent process that he would prefer to pitch for one of the teams, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reported on Monday.Johnson is looking for a rebound season after struggling mightily in 2013 with the Toronto Blue Jays. In 16 games — all starts — he went just 2-8 with a 6.20 ERA and 1.66 WHIP. Before last year, however, the 29-year-old Johnson hadn't finished a full season with an ERA higher than 3.81.Both San Francisco and San Diego have pitcher-friendly parks that would seemingly lay the groundwork for a comeback season. And both places, as Schulman notes, are closer to Johnson's home in Las Vegas.The Giants were close to a separate move on Monday to upgrade their pitching staff, reportedly nearing agreement on a two-year contract with starter Tim Hudson.

Re: I bought a brand new battery 6 months ago for my MacBook. It no longer charges is there a warrenty for that? in response to ACR
If you bought an Apple battery, and the cycles are less than documented in this Apple note, I would go to an Apple store and ask for a warranty replacement, given it's only been 6 months. Note that Apple considers a battery to be a consumable commodity, so cycles on the battery is an important metric.

All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1960 item #1234198 (stock #HB249)
Always pampered, this is an excellent condition vintage handbag by Nettie Rosenstein! Purse has been in my collection over 20 years. I never used it, just kept it covered and stored in my closet. Purse measures 8 ½" x 3 ½" x 4". Super collectible!
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1234197 (stock #HB248)
Another vintage purse from my collection! Roger and I have debated the color of this bag – I think it's very dark navy, he says it's black – photo is accurate so you be the judge. Purse measures 10 ¼" x 4 ¼" x 3 ½" and is in super condition. The only "use" evidence I could find is a few storage marks and there are some marks at the clasp area (from opening the purse, scratching the bag with a fingernail – sorry, I'm certain I did that)...
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1960 item #1234196 (stock #HB247)
This is one of the neatest vintage handbags in our inventory! As is the case with most of the vintage bags we have listed, this one is from my personal collection. Before I left the corporate world, I always carried a vintage bag (and brought my lunch in a vintage Scooby Doo metal lunchbox!). I purchased this purse many years ago at an antique show in Nashville, Tennessee. Other than a small amount of color wear to top corners, purse is in excellent condition inside and out...
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1980 item #1234194 (stock #HB246)
Gorgeous red leather clutch style handbag! Purse has interior label "Strasberg's, Louisville", it measures 14" long, and is in super condition. Interior is spotless, exterior has very, very minor wear on bottom (of absolutely no consequence). From my collection, time to share!
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1990 item #1234192 (stock #HAT264)

All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 2000 item #1234190 (stock #HAT263)
This hat is gorgeous! It's black and has accent veiling and a black feather trim – see photo. Label has "Joe Bill Miller" and has is in the hat box in photo. Hat is in like new, excellent condition.

There is a label on mirror "Genuine Mother of Pearl by SchildKraut". Compact measures 2 ½" x 2 1/16" (closed) and it is in mint, unused condition!

All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1228279 (stock #HB244)
Pretty colors on this beaded coin purse! It has bright green beads and front has a big flower – reminds me of a poinsettia. Measures 3 ¼" diameter and has no missing beads. The interior (green) lining has a small discoloration – like perfume would cause – that's it! Has interior label "Made in Korea".
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1228278 (stock #HB243)
As with the majority of my recently listed handbags, this one is from my collection – I purchased it at an antique shop over 13 years ago! It's just a little different and that's why it caught my attention. It's a beaded grape cluster and measures 4 ¼" (not including clasp) x 2 ¾" (closed). It is in excellent condition.

I purchased this little handbag at an antique shop in 2000 – it just caught my eye! Little purse is pink with a swan design on front, back is pink (no design) and as can be seen photos, there is a small number (probably less than a dozen) of missing beads. Bag is 3 ¾" x 2 ¼" – not including the carry handle/strap. It has interior label "Made in Czechoslovakia". Little purse would be a super vintage accessory for a doll!
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1228275 (stock #HB241)
Another lovely beaded evening bag! There is interior label "Hand Made In Belgium". This is one of the older beaded Belgium bags we have listed, it has been used and does have some missing beads. Interior is clean. This is a very nice, feminine vintage handbag.
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1228274 (stock #HB240)
Another neat beaded evening bag! This little bag has an attached loop on back for carrying but I would recommend just using as a clutch because if you put much in the bag, the weight may damage the loop. All beads appear to be present but there are oodles and I may have overlooked some but I didn't notice any missing. Bag measures 6" x 4", has interior label "Hand Made in Belgium", and is in super condition. Original mirror is still inside bag. Pretty!

Neat coin (or essentials) purse! It's in excellent condition and inside has "Made in India, Hand Made".
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1228271 (stock #HB237)
Another Josef handbag from my collection! This one is an evening bag that is elegant in its' simplicity. It's navy blue and the only ornamentation/adornment is one dozen sparkly clear rhinestones on the clasp. There is a small removable mirror in an interior slot. Handbag looks new inside and out (I know that I never used it!). Josef handbags are difficult to find because they are so highly sought by collectors. It took me many years to find the ones that I have listed.

This Josef handbag has been a part of my vintage collection for many years! Josef bags are rather difficult to find – over the years, I collected less than a dozen. This one has bronze color beads and is clutch style with tension closure. It has two interior labels – "Bonwit Teller" and "Bags by Josef, hand beaded in Japan". The original Bonwit Teller mirror is included as well as a small black coin purse. Handbag measures 8 5/8" x 4 ¾" x 1 1/8" (closed (6 ¼" open)...
All Items : Women's Vanity : Pre 1970 item #1217075 (stock #HB235)
From my collection, this listing has a lovely clear Lucite clutch style handbag! The design is of cherry clusters front and back with front being accented with clear rhinestones. Handbag measures 7 ¼" x 4 ¾" (to top of clasp) and 1 ¼" closed (4 ½" open), and it still has the soft plastic side panels that are so often missing on these handbags...

Bills Tackle Condoms, HIV Disclosure
In coming weeks state lawmakers will be debating the usage of condoms on porn sets and as evidence in prostitution cases. Focus will also be paid to the taxation of extra pay some LGBT workers receive.
And attention will be turned to relaxing California's HIV confidentiality and data sharing laws for a subset of people enrolled in the state AIDS Drug Assistance Program who will be transitioned to Medi-Cal or Covered California, the health insurance exchange created by the federal Affordable Care Act.
Two bills certain to receive widespread attention this year relate to condoms.
Assembly Bill 336, introduced by gay Assemblyman Tom Ammiano (D-San Francisco), would prohibit police and prosecutors from using possession of one or more condoms as a factor in arresting and prosecuting suspects alleged to be engaged in prostitution. Health officials and sex worker advocates have long complained that using prophylactics as evidence in prostitution cases results is bad public health policy and puts both sex workers and their clients at risk of contracting HIV or other sexually transmitted diseases.
"We have to encourage safe-sex practices, not frighten people into spreading disease," stated Ammiano in a release about the bill.
Following coverage of the issue by the Bay Area Reporter last year, law enforcement professionals in San Francisco instituted a moratorium on using condom possession in prostitution cases. The policy is set to expire in April but could be made permanent after a review by the police and district attorney.
The second condom bill, AB 332, would require condom use in all adult films - both gay and straight - produced in California. Assemblyman Isadore Hall, III (D-Los Angeles) is the lead author of the bill, which is being backed by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation.
It would make statewide a policy Los Angeles County voters passed in November that requires the use of condoms in explicit adult films produced within L.A. county.
"When it comes down to it, adult film actors are employees, like any other employee for any other business in the state," stated Hall. "We have an obligation to ensure that all workers, regardless of the type of work, are protected from workplace hazards and injury. AB 332 will give these actors a proven way to prevent the spread of disease while creating a safer workplace for actors throughout this growing industry."
If adopted by state lawmakers, the bill likely would have little to no impact on the production of gay porn featuring condomless sex, known as barebacking, as most producers would simply relocate production out of state.
Writing about the bill last week, the website thesword.com noted that most gay porn companies making bareback videos have either opened satellite offices in or decamped to other states such as Florida "where bareback productions are on the rise."
DP tax relief
Freshman lawmaker Assemblyman Phil Ting (D-San Francisco) is the lead author of legislation that would provide fiscal relief to same-sex couples who are hit with increased tax bills due to healthcare benefits.
When one partner adds the other to their employer provided health insurance plan, they incur a tax penalty because the Internal Revenue Service treats any employer contributions for a same-sex partner's or spouses' health insurance premiums as taxable income. Heterosexual couples do not face a similar tax hike, but LGBT couples do because under the Defense of Marriage Act the federal government is barred from recognizing their marriage or partnership.
In recent years a number of companies - such as Google, Kimpton Hotels and Restaurants, and Facebook - have turned to what is known as "grossing up" the pay of their LGBT employees to offset their tax bill. San Francisco is set to become only the third city in the nation to provide similar relief to its public employees with same-sex partners covered on their health plans under legislation by Supervisor Mark Farrell.
Since California provides same-sex couples in registered domestic partnerships or marriages the same rights as heterosexual married couples, the state does not impose a tax on the health benefits. It does, however, tax the "grossed up" pay employers provide to their LGBT workers.

Voodoo came out to relax and sunbath by his pool and he noticed the sexy, Jynx, laying out already. She was looking succulent in those tiny shorts. She explained that she is his sisters friend and his sister had to leave her there by herself. Voodoo told her that he preferred to sunbath naked, so Jynx asked for permission to take off her clothes. She made a confession to Voodoo that she loved to fuck her sisters older brothers. Soon after, she was slurping his cock near the pool. She got her pussy pounded and then requested to get fucked in her ass. She got her asshole rammed from behind and got man juice all over her pretty face.

Bonita Springs man accused of cruelty toward 9-month-old baby due to wet pants
BONITA SPRINGS - A Bonita Springs man was arrested late Tuesday on child cruelty charges after a baby boy had to be taken to the emergency room.
Ramiro Zamora-Herrera, 25, of the 11000 block of McKenna Avenue, was charged with an act that could result in physical injury, cruelty toward a child.
According to Lee County Sheriff's Office reports:
The baby's mother said she was in the bathroom when she heard Zamora-Herrera yelling at the 9-month-old because his pants were wet, then heard the baby crying hysterically. She walked in and saw the baby being held down and gasping for breath.
She grabbed him and was going to take him to a doctor, but on the way, the boy became lethargic and limp. She called 911 and he was taken to North Collier Hospital by ambulance. He was treated and later released, suffering no apparent injuries.

October 3, 2013 10:04:17 AM
A company operating as "Record Transfer Services" based out Wilmington, Del., has been mailing notices to people who have just purchased property in Lowndes County to sell them copies of their deeds for $83.
Lowndes County Chancery Clerk Lisa Younger Neese said people can come by her office to get that same document for $2.
The "deed processing notice" lists the company's address as "1000 N West Street Suite 1200, Wilmington, Delaware 19801."
Neese said she and her deputy clerks have received several inquiries about the notices. She warns people who receive the letter not to send the company the bloated processing fee.
"Back in the summer it was really bad," she said. "It's died down, but we think it's starting up again because we got two customers (Tuesday who asked about it). It's just a scam. It's somebody trying to make money."
The notice states property owners should detach a portion of the letter containing the property number along with a check for $83 to receive their documents and report within 21 business days. The company clarifies that it is not affiliated with Lowndes County or any government agencies and the offer "serves as a solicitation of services and (is) not to be interpreted as a bill due."
"People can come by and get a hard copy of the deed," Neese said. "Deeds are usually two pages and the certification is two pages."
Publications across the country have reported notices from the same company being sent to landowners, including the Meridian Star in Mississippi.

Forget 'American Idol': S'Frisco Had a 'Top DJ' Contest
What do Russ Rich, Byron Bonsall, and Brian Maier have in common? They are all residents of San Francisco, they are all DJs, and as of this week were named to the first, second and third place positions in San Francisco's Next Top DJ contest.
An event conceived with Past Curfew (producers of Play T-Dances in San Francisco) and Folsom Street Events (producers of Up Your Alley Street Fair and Folsom Street Fair), several DJs entered the contest by completing submissions for judging by a panel. Following the judging panel, the top five DJ submissions were loaded up online and the second round of judging was cast out to the social media streams to secure top votes.
The prize, a chance to play at the Up Your Alley Street Fair Dance Area on Sunday, July 31, with the winner getting the prime time spot and a chance to headline a future Play T-Dance party.
The contest online voting ended on Friday, July 8, and the tallies showed that DJ Russ Rich was the winner, followed by DJ Byron Bonsall and DJ Brian Maier.
Russ Rich has had recent fame and success at a number of parties in the San Francisco scene, including recent gigs at Industry, Fresh SF, and Bearracuda. Making his rounds on the scene, Russ has started to make his ascent into bigger and more prominent time slots, delivering a range of music from high-energy T-dance vocals and anthems, to darker tribal beats.

Smarter Public Safety: Enabling And Enhancing Crime Fighting Capabilities
With rising population levels in cities across the globe and shifting demographics, Public Safety agencies are increasingly challenged to meet their mandates of protecting lives, property and infrastructure.
The accelerating pace of globalization and the rising impact of technological developments are increasing the economic and commercial risks of crime and threats to social order. In many jurisdictions, these challenges are compounded by budgetary constraints. Pressure on law enforcement agencies to use public resources more efficiently is being felt in large cities such as London and Toronto, at the federal level, such as in Poland, and even at the local level, far from large cities. Law enforcement commanders and political and civic leaders are concerned by this combination of factors, because low levels of police resources decrease an agency's ability to detect crime, which is associated with increased levels of crime.
In response, law enforcement agencies are taking advantage of advances in information and communications technology (ICT) to improve public safety. A critical aspect of this initiative is to capture, process, and share data within and across agencies. Because the variety and sheer volume of data produced annually is increasing exponentially, law enforcement personnel have access to a great deal of raw material to help them detect threats. These efforts to make public safety "smarter" enable enhanced coordination for emergency response teams and advance efforts to protect the public. Yet, even as vast fields of data are becoming better organized and more accessible, it is still relatively difficult for officers and analysts to identify patterns that can be...

Posted January 09, 2013 on AP on Fox
Mike Anderson would rather forget his first go-around through the Southeastern Conference. The Arkansas coach hopes the second time's a charm, beginning Wednesday night when the Razorbacks open SEC play at league newcomer Texas A&M. Arkansas (9-4) lost its first six conference road games last season on its way to a 1-7 mark away from home in Anderson's first season as coach. The Razorbacks haven't fared much better so far this season, posting an 0-3 record away from home - including losses at No. 2 Michigan and neutral-court losses to Arizona State and Wisconsin. Despite last season's struggles and the early woes this season, Arkansas is coming off a recent five-game winning streak heading into the game against the Aggies (10-3). ''I hope the carry-over is that we're playing good basketball,'' Anderson said. ''We're getting more guys involved with our basketball team; we're finding out a little bit more about who we are. The lessons we learned earlier in the year, hopefully ...

Re: Crusade Question
Getting a bit off topic, but the three trilogies (Centauri Prime, Telepath/Bester, and Technomages) are essentially considered cannon to the extent any tie in book series can be considered cannon for a show. All three were written based on basic story/plot outlines developed by JMS as part of his development of the overall Babylon 5 universe. And all 3 really are great and worth reading if you can find them. They fill in a lot of holes and finish a lot of stories, and even though they aren't written by JMS, they do it in the way JMS intended it to be done. Just some really great stuff.

Release Date:
December 8, 2009
Great Britain's Beat Goes On Records (BGO) found a couple of nearly forgotten gems to compile in this grand two-fer from guitarist Joe Pass' solo catalog. This set contains his amazing 12 String Guitar album (the first 12 tracks) issued in 1963, with bonus tracks from a 1964 session included. Pass played an acoustic 12-string, of course, and was accompanied by John Pisano on rhythm guitar, bassist Charlie Haden, and drummer Larry Bunker. Each cut is a beautiful modern jazz reading of popular movie themes of the day, from "Lawrence of Arabia" and "How the West Was Won" to the more delicate "Love Theme of Tom Jones" (not the singer) and the taut rhythmic intensity and ultimate beauty of "Carnaval" from the film Black Orpheus, offering listeners solid evidence of his bossa and samba chops. Every track here is a winner. The final 13 cuts here are another animal entirely. Recorded and released in 1966, they feature Pass playing Rolling Stones covers on electric guitar backed by a large West Coast jazz orchestra, arranged and conducted by Bob Florence, with the only other identified musician being tenor saxophonist Bill Perkins. Since jazz itself was in crisis at the time, lots of albums were made by established jazz players covering the hit songs of the day by pop/rock's biggest artists. Purists tend to dislike this material and its in-your-face arrangements, but they're simply wrong. Pass' performance is stellar (check his reading of "Paint It Black"), with his trademark taste and elegance and technique galore, while Florence's arrangements combine everything from Latin to rock, pop, and progressive big-band sounds. The set's final track is the title, and it simply takes a number of melodic ideas from Stones tunes and moves them into harmonic overdrive with some killer playing by the pianist, who sounds a lot like Vince Guaraldi. On top of everything else, the remastered sound is terrific and up to BGO standards. While it is true that hearing these albums paired together for the first time -- especially as they are so different from one another -- is startling, it ultimately makes fine aesthetic sense. They are innovative, accessible, full of great grooves and solos, and sound wonderful in the 21st century. Thom Jurek, Rovi

Vero Beach broker sees increased interest in Miracle Mile area
Some of the changes include:
Anthony's Ladies Apparel has moved to the north side of Miracle Mile near Wells Fargo, into the Miracle Mile Plaza at 636 21st St.
Dollar Tree will relocate to the old Anthony's location, 701 21st St., going from 4,000 square feet to 11,000 square feet
23,000 square feet of space adjacent to The Fresh Market may be renovated into three to four storefronts within the next six months if city officials approve the plan
Bonefish Grill has leased space formerly occupied by Joey's Bistro, in the 3 Avenues shopping center at the southeast end of Miracle Mile
A new Chase Bank is expected to open by late summer in the 3 Avenues shopping center
VERO BEACH — Vero Beach commercial Realtor Billy Moss knows movement when he sees it.
Moss, a broker for Lambert Commercial Real Estate Inc., has been watching businesses snap up available retail space quickly in the downtown Vero Beach market, particularly in the shopping centers along Miracle Mile.
"I call the Miracle Mile area extend-a-beach," said Moss. "Between 3 Avenues, the Publix Shopping Center and Miracle Mile Plaza, the area is becoming ground central for commercial space in Vero Beach. People just love the feel of it."
Moss said the relocation of Anthony's Ladies Apparel into the Miracle Mile Plaza at 636 21st St. near Wells Fargo Bank, across from its years-long location at 701 21st St., is a good example of the changes happening along Miracle Mile.
The 11,000-square-foot space vacated by Anthony's is set to be the next location for a Dollar Tree store that's currently in the Treasure Coast Plaza next to Publix.
"We are trying to get a symbiosis of retail space," said Moss. "While we want the area to remain Vero Beach, we still want to bring in the amenities that people want."
Much of the interest in the Miracle Mile area started with the completion of the 3 Avenues shopping center at the southeast end of Miracle Mile by developer Scott Parker, Moss said. Bonefish Grill has leased space formerly occupied by Joey's Bistro in the shopping center and a new Chase Bank is expected to open by late summer.
"That was the catalyst," said Moss. "But there has definitely been a huge increase in the rest of the Miracle Mile area."
Several new stores have opened in Vero Plaza near The Fresh Market, including an insurance broker, a dance supply store and a cigar shop.
When The Fresh Market took over the location formerly occupied by Publix, it utilized only half of the space, and the remaining 23,000 square feet could be subdivided into three or four spaces and available for occupancy within the next six months, Moss said.
That resurgence of commercial leasing is not limited to Miracle Mile.
Developer Michael Rechter, who owns the Majestic Plaza on U.S. 1 in Vero Beach, said commercial space that has been empty for almost a decade has been rented.
"We're close to full," said Rechter. "Spaces that have languished are filling up. We're getting a lot of activity again."
Rechter said national chain restaurants again are interested in exploring opportunities in Vero Beach.
"But when I talk to people about Vero Beach, they are really only interested in three areas," said Rechter. "They want to either be out by the mall on (State Road) 60, on Miracle Mile or on U.S. 1 between 12th and 20th streets."
Rechter said he is bullish on the entire commercial real estate market in Vero Beach, whether it's Miracle Mile, S.R. 60 or U.S. 1.
"The whole corridor is poised to grow like crazy," he said.

Challenges of creating cities in China: Lessons from a short-lived county-to-city upgrading policy
It has been widely observed that China is under-urbanized. The central government has tried to use various policies to promote urbanization. In this paper, we evaluate one of these policies – count-to-city upgrading. Under China's hierarchical governance structure, a city status can only be determined and awarded by the central government. In the 1980s and 1990s, China adopted a formula-based county-to-city upgrading policy. Based on a large panel dataset covering all counties in China, we find that the formula was not strictly enforced in the practice. Moreover, jurisdictions that were upgraded to cities prior to 1998 do not perform better than their counterparts that remained county status in terms of both economic growth and providing public services. Largely because of these problems, this policy was called off in 1997. Given the strong need for urbanization, more indigenous institutional innovations are needed to find a viable way of creating cities, which would also provide compatible incentives to local governments.

Syd Nathan never wanted this record made. The King Records founder had a long history of working with black performers, ever since the late 40s when he decided to get into "the race business" after initially only concentrating on "hillbilly accounts." This is a man who had not only started his own independent label, but also bankrolled his own recording studios, pressing plant and distribution network. He was keenly aware of talent, using A&R; reps (who would later be his scapegoats when pressed by the FCC during the payola hearings of the 50s) to snatch up big band singers and bandleaders, in the hopes of transforming them into viable sensations for what would one day be called "crossover" appeal. He tried country, blues, doo-wop and R&B--; he might not have capitalized on every opportunity (most notably letting The Platters go to Mercury in 1953, only to witness them become the most successful vocal group of the decade), but he was certainly willing to try.
Nathan signed Macon, Georgia performer James Brown in 1956 to his King subsidiary, Federal, despite a less than favorable view of the "Please, Please, Please" demo (in short, "That's the worst piece of crap I've heard in my life"). Brown and his band, The Famous Flames, had already toured the South when he was signed for $200 to Federal, but he had yet to convince Nathan and Federal to allow him to record with the band. It wouldn't happen until Brown and the Flames scored a hit called "Mashed Potatoes" under the pseudonym Nat Kendrick & The Swans for another label. After Brown hit regionally with "Please, Please, Please" in 1956 for Federal, Nathan's original appraisal appeared to have been off the mark. That is, until Brown's next nine singles in a row flopped. Badly.
Brown and the Flames finally scored a national hit with their eleventh single for Federal, "Try Me", which granted him further stay on the label. Nathan was rewarded, too, as over the next four years, the band earned its reputation as the best in the biz, performing as The James Brown Revue ("Star Time"), and saddling its frontman with several well-applied titles: "The Hardest Working Man in Show Business," "Mr. Dynamite" and ultimately, "The Godfather of Soul." By 1962, Brown intended to showcase his act with a live album, especially after seeing Ray Charles hit with In Person in 1959. He'd played Harlem's Apollo Theater several times, but when Nathan refused to pay for a live recording on the basis that he wouldn't have a single to promote it, Mr. Dynamite had to take matters into his own hands.
Brown personally funded the recording of his Wednesday night show at The Apollo on October 24th, 1962. He and the Flames had been there all week already, and Brown was counting on the raucous crowds who showed for amateur night to give him the kind of support he knew Nathan couldn't ignore. For his part, Nathan had reluctantly sent one of his people to supervise the recording, but could hardly have expected it to result in this album. It's more than a little strange to think King had originally issued Live at the Apollo with canned applause and screams because not only were the Apollo faithful in full "support" of Brown's revue, that night has gone down in rock and soul history as arguably the finest live performance ever captured on record. Not bad for a guy who'd been one flop away from failure only a few years earlier.
Live at the Apollo was issued in 1963 and became an instant hit. Not only did it satisfy Brown's small legion of diehard fans-- to the tune of being played in its entirety during the evenings on some R&B; radio stations-- for the first time, it brought the undeniably intense celebration of his live show to young audiences throughout the country. This might not have been very important in another era, but just as Live at the Apollo can be seen as a symbolic transformation of R&B; into Soul, for a myriad of events, 1963 marked the dawn of a decade when sharing experiences and points of view across an entire culture meant more than just crossover success. It was the true beginning of the 60s, and Brown's half-hour Wednesday night set figures no less prominently than Dylan bringing protest music to the masses or The Beatles arriving in America the following year as musical signposts for A New Day.
Emcee Fats Gonder's introduction to the show is as fine a setup as a performer could ask for: "So now, ladies and gentlemen, it is Star Time. Are you ready for Star Time?!" The Flames give hits upon each Brown hit that Gonder lists, and the eager crowd responds with due enthusiasm (i.e., screams, lots and lots of screams). The band then drops a cutting version of Brown's "The Scratch" to urge the Man onstage. And what do you think Brown should announce as soon as he arrives? Two years before "I Got You", and he lets us have it: "You know, I feel alright!"
The band launches "I'll Go Crazy" with the slash of Les Buie's guitar and the sting of horns. "If you leave me, I'll go crazy," sings the leader, and the audience can already barely stand themselves. Horn punches accentuate the message Brown has taken with him to this day: "You gotta live for yourself, and nobody else." Just as soon as he's delivered the advice, Brown pleas to "Try Me! SCREAM! Try Me!" His trio of background singers, Bobby Byrd, Bobby Bennett and "Baby" Lloyd Stallworth, echo the sentiments, while the band locks the bluesy shuffle in tighter than the tension on Clay Fillyau's snare head. And again, before you can catch your breath, the band is already into the post-jump intro to "Think". Star Time was a lesson in speed, endurance and shared inspiration: If you gave the band everything you had, they'd return the favor tenfold.
Then, things get really good with a dit-dit-dit-DOOO and the ultra-cool, slow burning blues seduction of "I Don't Mind". With each beat, falling just behind where you expect it to land, Brown and his angelic backing choir deliver a fatal blow to any woman within earshot: "I don't mind, and I know you're gonna miss me." Jesus. Just in case you didn't think he was serious, good luck surviving "Lost Someone", ten minutes of gospel-tinged balladry somehow slower and lower than the preceding number. The Flames horns (led by trumpeter Lewis Hamlin) maintain a faint bond to Count Basie while at the same time handing Brown the razor-sharp precision he demanded. Between each declaration of passion, the horns serve an upturned figure, just enough to hold the audience in their place lest they faint from what must by then have been a steamy auditorium. And can I get a medic to those two girls JB was singing to at the end?
The Flames were masters of pacing, and roll out a six-minute medley of their hits to keep the show rolling, including "Please, Please, Please" (twice!), "You've Got the Power" and "Why Do You Do Me". The audience doesn't miss a beat, of course, and the only thing more powerful than Fillyau's bass drum kicks are their shrieks. And then things get REALLY REALLY good: "All aboard!" "Yeah!" "All aboard!" "Yeah!" "For NIGHT TRAIN!" Brown ends the show with his then latest hit, running down a list of cities in which he was quickly becoming a household name. He even gets his band excited when name checking New York City. "Night Train" is full of complex polyrhythms and demands total precision from the musicians, but you can hardly blame them for getting swept up in this show.
The original Live at the Apollo ended after "Night Train", but the newly expanded and remastered version contains four mono single-edits of songs from the show that Brown issued to tide over fans unable to catch one of his 300 yearly shows. 40 years later, the few remaining folks either unaware or somehow unconvinced of the power of the record have little excuse not to put down the bucks for this budget-priced edition. Beyond its significance in rock and soul history, and for Brown as an artist, this music translates so far beyond barriers of style or taste, it's one of the few albums that could accurately be described as essential. Fats Gonder said it best: "It is indeed a great pleasure to present to you at this particular time... James Brown & The Famous Flames." Amen.

The hotel is situated in a nice country location, with good parking.
The room was spacious and well furnished, and the owners wey very friendly.

Breakfast starts at 8.30 but I had to gone by 8.15 so I had for forsake it. I was not offered any form of buffet or take out option.
