Emotions ran high at a meeting Thursday night meant to connect businesses and residents who suffered Hurricane Sandy property damage with the resources they need to rebuild.
Representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Small Business Administration turned out to help attendees wade through the complex process of filing for the aid many need to get back on their feet.
Homeowners from Devon Terrace, Sanford Avenue and East Midland Avenue turned out to ask questions about aid, flood insurance and new flood zone maps that will place new mandates on how they construct their homes.
The three areas were flooded from storm surges off the Passaic and Hackensack rivers.
The homeowners their patience clearly frayed by months of waiting for answers also criticized town officials for what they said was inadequate help following the storm.
Robert Albright said his Devon Terrace home flooded after Hurricane Irene, but the 3 feet of water was nothing compared to Sandy, when he and his family were trapped in their home for two days.
"After Irene, they told us it was a once in a lifetime storm and to rebuild," he said, noting that his street floods during most rainstorms. "I'm devastated. So are my wife and kids. The emotional stress before and after the storm is too much. I've done this too many times and I'm done.
"You can't guarantee that this won't happen again, so I'm taking my family to higher ground."
Albright said he would like FEMA to purchase his home in a program similar to one the agency undertook in recent years to buy and demolish homes in the flood-prone Passaic River basin.
Neighbors Raymond and Kathleen Gorski finished renovations to their home following damage by Hurricane Irene right before Sandy hit. Much of the work was destroyed when a storm surge from the Hackensack River flooded their home again.
Her voice breaking, Kathleen Gorski said the flood waters flowed over several contaminated properties before reaching her home.
"That water had to pass through that contaminated land to get into our basement," she said.
"Where does that leave us?"
She also asked when new federal flood zone maps would be completed so the couple could make decisions on the repairs that will be required for their home.
"When will I be notified so I know what to do?" she said. "We're not being informed in the way I think we should. You can't answer my questions."
FEMA Insurance Specialist Craig Brown promised to work with the couple to help. Offering to meet with them following last week's session, he told them, "I can lead you through the maze."

Second Watchmen episode sighted
Watchmen: The End is Nigh Part II has been spotted on the ESRB website, the ratings agency slapping an 'M' (for Mature) tag on Warner's new action brawler, linked to the hit move presently showing in cinemas.
Nite Owl and Rorschach will once again star in this second slice of downloadable fun for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 - with more brutal combat the order of the day as our heroes take on biker gangs, thugs and more across a range of environs.
Watchmen part two will include a plot surrounding a villain who has molested a porn actress, and it'll take place in part in a seedy strip club, complete with dancers and all manner of titillation. We're not sure Rorschach will approve.
We'll bring you more on all things Watchmen soon.

General Karl W. Eikenberry was right in November 2009 when he urged less support for an Afghanistan ruled by President Hamid Karzai. President Obama and Generals Stanley McChrystal and David Petraeus all wanted a surge. The policy failed. The general won't say it but he told them so in a second opinion solicited by Obama. Look at the facts. (Image: US Dept of State)
The Bush administration hand-picked Hamid Karzai to be the first ruler of Afghanistan. Following the axiom, nothing good comes out of the Bush administration; is it any surprise that Karzai oscillated between less than effective and a near disaster? Lately, he's gone nonlinear.
On February 25, Karzai ordered United States Special Forces out of three provinces claiming that Afghan troops tied to the U.S. command were torturing their fellow citizens. As U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel arrived in Kabul on March 11, Karzai accused the U.S. of "colluding with the Taliban." He added the odd notion that the Taliban sought a prolonged U.S. presence in Afghanistan.
Retired Army colonel David Maxwell of Georgetown University remarked: "I cannot see how we could work with such an apparently delusional leader much longer, but unfortunately I do not know if we have any other good options." Bloomberg, Mar 11

Call of Duty: Zombies
Redirected from CoD:WaW:Zombies
this wiki
Call of Duty: Zombies is the Nazi Zombie mode on the Apple iPod Touch/iPhone™, which is available for purchase for exactly $4.99 (previously $9.99). It includes the maps Nacht Der Untoten, Verruckt, Shi No Numa and Der Riese.
There are several notable differences in the iPod version, namely the lack of recoil on most guns. Some weapons, such as the Ray Gun, are unusually weaker, and slight differences in their shooting is noticeable. The Ray Gun specifically is severely underpowered, losing it's one-hit kill ability at about round 16. It becomes a two-hit kill until around round 21. Although these changes have being made from the original Nazi Zombies, you can still play online via Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth™. This is also free, so you can play online with people anywhere, or go with Bluetooth for matches with people who are around you who also own the game.
There are also a list of achievements, such as Pyromaniac, which give you a gamerscore of sorts. There are "Overall" achievements, for all maps, and others made for a specific map. Ther are currently 59 Overall achievements.
- The app is generally considered non-canonical, as it shows Dr. Richtofen being zombified in the tutorial.

The whole Godfather set, on BluRay... $18!
One day deal on Amazon.... and yes, I ordered one. Since I have been watching their daily deals, my movie collection has been growing steadily.
The Godfather Collection (The Coppola Restoration) [Blu-ray]

I have the original set somewhere or the other... And have never gone down the BluRay trail... :-)

Our film collection is quite large, but has been collected by patience over the years (waiting for the 2nd hand price to drop below £1.00 max) with quite a few costing less than two shillings plus postage.
Stage Two involves being ruthless about space saving. The DVD (no Blu-Ray here either) gets "processed" on to a disk share on my Home Server; the DVD goes into storage in a 200 disc DJ case; and the DVD case goes to recycling.
Viewing is simple - cheap-ish media players plugged into HD monitors or TVs in the relevant rooms, fed by Cat6 from the server - and no scrabbling around for one disc in over a thousand, its all sorted & indexed.
I own all the originals so there are no piracy issues, and if a copy becomes corrupted (rare) I just re-process it.

Multnomah County District Attorney Rod Underhill will not investigate allegations of contracting violations on a $12.6 million Bureau of Environmental Services office that tripled in cost.
Underhill's office sent a letter this afternoon to backers of a ballot initiative that would remove control of Portland's water and sewer utilities from City Hall.
It says his office will wait to see the outcome of an audit performed by City Auditor LaVonne Griffin-Valade.
"My office is making no comment and taking no position on either the allegations raised or the potential outcome of the city auditor's investigation," Underhill writes.
City Commissioner Nick Fish asked asked Griffin-Valade to add the building to a procurement audit after WW revealed how it had tripled in price.
Kent Craford and Floy Jones, co-petitioners on Ballot Measure 26-156, asked for a criminal investigation following a story by KOIN-TV reporter Dan Tilkin that the city's top architect on the project left to work for contractor Skylab Architecture late last year.
"We're disappointed to hear that the DA is deferring to the auditor," Craford tells WW, "as City Council's past practice has been to thumb their noses at these good but toothless audits. My expectation is that Commissioner Fish will sweep this scandal under the $5,202 rug."
Fish says he's happy Underhill rejected what he called "political grandstanding" by Craford and Jones.
"We're pleased that DA Underhill has deferred this issue to the auditor, who at our request is doing an unprecedented audit of a specific project," Fish says.
"Ironically, if Mr. Craford had his way, the auditor would no longer serve as the independent auditor of our utilities—which is one of the reasons Auditor LaVonne Griffin-Valade has come out strongly against this measure."
WW examined in April how the Columbia Boulevard Wastewater Treatment Plant services facility rose from $3.2 million to $11.4 million in price, thanks to cost overruns and silent approvals by the City Council. The price tag on the building is now $12.6 million, city officials say.

By Grant McGee: Local Columnist
That new "Dukes of Hazzard" movie has been playing in Clovis.
Remembering the old TV show it's based on, I put a Waylon Jennings album on the stereo. There was Waylon singing the theme from the original TV show.
"Straight'nin' the curves, flattenin' the hills," are just some of the words in the theme. When I heard that line I flashed back. I remembered the time I tried to play "Dukes of Hazzard" with my Chevy coupe on an Appalachian road. Instead of "straight'nin'" the curve, I flew out of it.
I should've known better than to speed down a two-lane West Virginia highway. My 30th birthday wasn't too far in the future. Then, I never was one to mature at a normal rate.
I came up on a curve by a creek. There was a big yellow warning sign. Somebody from the state had determined that the top speed for the curve was 35 mph. I remember I was doing 65. I pulled that old "straight'nin' the curve" move.
Then something went wrong.
I don't know what happened, but the next thing I knew I was airborne.
I woke up on the floor of the Chevy hearing running water. I turned over and looked through the shattered windshield at the evening sky.
I sat up.
I tried to start the car. No go. In my scrambled brain logic I thought if I could get it started I could drive away unnoticed. That wasn't going to happen either. A bunch of folks had gathered by the side of the creek.
I got out, smiled and waved.
A man in bib overalls came up.
"Son," he said, "do you have another pair of pants in your car? Your rear's hangin' out."
I instinctively reached around to the seat of my pants and felt bare skin. I felt my face form an "oops" expression. "I do have an extra pair."
"Well, you can go over to my house and change," he said.
In the guy's bathroom I saw my face for the first time since the wreck. I remember I let out a small noise of shock. My face was scraped up pretty bad.
I put on my trousers and walked back to the wreck, dutifully awaiting the arrival of the state police.
One hour passed. Two hours passed.
"Boy, I think we gotta get you to the hospital to get checked out," said the guy who let me use his bathroom.
At the hospital they sewed up a big hole in my seat.
As I lay on my stomach on a gurney, an office-type came to ask for my insurance information.
"I don't have any health insurance," I said.
"Oh," she said. She turned and went away.
Minutes later an orderly appeared to usher me to the hospital entrance.
"We've called a cab for you and it'll take you to a local motel."
"So I'm OK?" I asked.
"Well, you don't have any insurance," he said.
So here it is, 2005. Things sure have changed. I understand some hospitals won't give you the bum's rush if you don't have insurance. I also drive pretty normally. I have for years. As a matter of fact, a few years back my cousin Tish said, "You drive like an old man."
I'll leave that "Dukes of Hazzard" driving stuff to the Hollywood stunt men.

LEWISTON, Idaho (AP) -- Police said it didn't take them long to locate an Idaho man suspected in the robbery of a Cedars Inn - he was next door at The Alibi bar. Lewiston police said 40-year-old Donald Mosley Jr. was arrested less than 15 minutes after he walked into the hotel and demanded cash from the desk clerk late Wednesday.
Police found Mosley at The Alibi, a bar located next to the hotel. Mosley was booked into the Nez Perce County Jail early Thursday and faces possible felony robbery charges.
The Lewiston Tribune reports this is the second time Mosley has been arrested in recent weeks.
In late October, police say he called in a fake fire report from a pay phone after he was declined a cup of coffee at a Lewiston fire station. It was unclear if Mosley had hired an attorney Thursday, when various state and county offices were closed in observance of Veterans Day.

Syracuse, NY - A Syracuse teenager received a juvenile detention sentence and a harsh lecture from the judge today for his role in the Halloween night shooting of a city man.
Notorous Jackson, now 16, was sentenced by Onondaga County Judge William Walsh to serve 1 2/3 to five years in a juvenile detention facility for his first-degree assault conviction.
Jackson had nothing to say about the shooting but complained about media cameras being in court.
That prompted an angry response from the judge.
"What about the victim who was shot who objected to the gun? Walsh asked. "Face the music, face the cameras," he told Jackson.
Jackson then said he didn't have the gun and didn't shoot the victim.
But Walsh noted the evidence indicated Jackson provided the gun that was used and was present with his companions when the shooting took place.
"You think you're tough? Running with guys with guns?" the judge asked. "You're not tough, you're weak. Tough is telling your buds you're not getting involved and walking away."
Jackson was one of four youths charged in the Oct. 31 incident in which 19-year-old Fredrick Lawson was shot in the groin at the corner of Stolp and Roberts avenues. Lawson had confronted the youths after they pelted him with eggs from a passing car.
Read more about the Halloween shooting.
Defense lawyer Donald VanStry today said he thought the community would benefit from having Jackson serve his time in a juvenile facility where he can get treatment and counseling instead of in an adult prison where he would likely just come out as a violent felon.
He also said he thought Jackson could benefit from his time away from the community. The Halloween night shooting was not the only gun-related case involving the teenager.
Jackson also had been charged with attempted murder in a Feb. 21 shooting incident, but the victims claimed he was not the gunman and the prosecution opted not to puruse the case against the youth.
VanStry said he suspected Jackson's seemingly disrespectful demeanor with the judge in court today resulted from the judge's comments about the shooting itself.
Authorities contend 14-year-old Shykeem Edmonds fired a shot into the ground near Lawson from a .45-caliber handgun before Shamere McMillan, 17, actually shot the victim with a .38-caliber weapon.
McMillan was sentenced Monday to five years in state prison for the Oct. 31 shooting plus an additional four years in prison for threatening his former girlfriend with another gun in an unrelated incident March 30.
Shaolin Moore, 15, was sentenced Monday to 1 2/3 to five years in a juvenile detention facility for his role in the case.
Edmonds is scheduled to be sentenced next week.

The American Freedom Foundation chose Huntsville as the third site in the country to host its festival series benefiting current and former service members and their families, said Webb, president and cofounder of Still Serving Veterans. He said the Rocket City is in good company: the foundation's annual events in Washington, D.C., and San Diego have grown huge, headlined by Daughtry, Alan Jackson and other stars.
The American Freedom Foundation was founded by former Sgt. Maj. of the Army Jack Tilley and producer Ted Hacker after Tilley's retirement in 2004. The sergeant major had developed relationships with Hacker and others in the entertainment world during USO tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, and wanted to continue helping military men and women.
Webb served with Tilley in Bosnia, where both were with the 1st Armored Division, Tilley as command sergeant major, Webb as aviation brigade commander. A couple of years ago, after catching up with each other at an Association of the U.S. Army convention, Tilley and the foundation gave some money to the nonprofit Still Serving Veterans.
Now, Webb said, they're doing much more.
"What (Tilley) really anticipates for Huntsville is to have our inaugural concert this year ... and come back bigger and stronger next year, like he has done in the Washington, D.C., area and now San Diego," Webb said. "So it's a real compliment for Huntsville."
And a real opportunity. Webb said the foundation takes only what's needed to cover costs, and the rest will go to Still Serving Veterans and area veterans groups it works with as a pilot site for the Community Blueprint Network, such as Operation Stand Down Huntsville and the Semper Fi Community Task Force.
Still Serving Veterans enjoys great corporate and private support from the community, he said, and raises money through golf tournaments and other events. Northrop Grumman, Skydex and other companies are assisting with the American Freedom Festival Huntsville.
"But to really step up to the next level, and integrate services for veterans in this area, we need a sustained, larger source of funding," Webb said. "And this concert (series) has that potential. ...
"We want to do well this time so we validate (Tilley's) pick and encourage them to come back next year bigger, stronger," Webb said.

JACKSON, MI – They may only be in eighth-grade, but some Jackson County students already have a feel for what college might be like.
Approximately 310 students from Northwest's R.W. Kidder Middle School and Springport Middle School have participated in an expanded Kids2College program, hosted by Jackson County's College & Career Access Center.
"Prior to this year, Kids2College was a program that was appreciated and used, but with only a small number of classrooms participating," said Whitney Stoner, a College & Career Access Center college and career adviser.
This year, through support from the Cradle 2 Career network, Jackson Junior Welfare League and the Jackson Community Foundation's Youth Advisory Committee, the six-week program was able to expand.
Kids2College is a Sallie Mae Fund program that aims to get middle school students thinking earlier about what they want to do after high school. The curriculum, taught during the school day, covers career pathways, college degrees, financial aid and college preparedness.
Students do career presentations, create their own business cards and interview adults working in careers they are interested in. Those completing the program have a "graduation photo" taken in full cap and gown while they hold a logo of the college they are interested in attending.
As part of the experience, this year's Kids2College students also visited Michigan State University in May where they toured campus, heard an admissions presentation, visited academic buildings and ate lunch in a student cafeteria.
The Cradle 2 Career's middle school action team is working on plans to expand the Kids2College program to additional Jackson County schools next year, Stoner said.
The Cradle 2 Career program operates on the theory that academic success takes more than just great schools – it takes a community working together on common goals for education. C2C action teams cover all facets of education from early childhood to post-secondary.

Lampeter-Strasburg capped L-L League play in style on Wednesday, when the Pioneers topped Section 3 foe Donegal 7-5 to win their third league softball championship at Garrett Field in Willow Street.
Ace pitchers Courtney Martin and Jordan Weaver combined for the win and the save, and first baseman Sarah Braungard had the hot bat, swatting a 3-run triple and driving in four runs in all for Lampeter-Strasburg, which improved to 22-1 overall.
Donegal, which handed the Pioneers their lone loss this season — 2-1 in eight innings in a Section 3 game — slipped to 19-3, but the Indians certainly made things interesting, rallying out of a 6-1 hole to make it a 6-5 game in the fifth inning.
But Lampeter-Strasburg got the job done, winning its third L-L crown since 2006.
Next up: The District 3 playoffs, where the Pioneers and Indians could end up on a collision course for their fourth meeting this season. Stay tuned.
Here is some postgame reaction after Lampeter-Strasburg edged Donegal for L-L gold on Wednesday …
Lampeter-Strasburg's Courtney Martin — "This means so much because we put in so much to do this. So it feels great to see it all payoff in my senior year. It's amazing. We have a solid team. … I had a lot of confidence, and they made a nice comeback. But we all stayed tough and hung in there. They were hitting the ball, and we knew it would be a tough game. Getting this far so far has been amazing."
Lampeter-Strasburg's Jordan Weaver — "It was amazing to come out and get a quick lead on them like that. But they fought back and then we had to fight back. It was a very intense game. … Courtney is the senior and it was her turn to start, and I thought she did a great job in the circle for us. I was ready to go. … That was a great comeback by (Donegal). They didn't give up at all. They didn't make it easy for us. It turned out to be a hitter's game, and we did the best we could. We were prepared to hit; that's what we needed to do. So this was a big accomplishment for us. We're thrilled."
Lampeter-Strasburg's Sarah Braungard — "This feels so good because we haven't won it in a long time. … (On the 3-run triple) I saw an inside pitch and I just went with it. We were all hitting up and down the lineup. We all wanted to give it our all at the plate. … Courtney did great and Jordan came in and shut them down, so it felt great. It was a perfect game. I loved the fat that we got to play Donegal again. This is very cool."
Lampeter-Strasburg coach Tim Shoff — "Sarah had some big hits, and everybody in our lineup, one through nine, had a sacrifice or moved somebody up or got an RBI. We wanted a total team effort, and I thought we got it. … Donegal really battled back. They got some hits from the bottom of their lineup and made it close. We expected that. But our pitching has been our key. Those two have really dominated for us."
Donegal coach Wayne Emenheiser — "I was excited about how our kids didn't quit. We could have just quit there and just let the game play out. But we didn't. We kept battling. Our young kids kept battling. And we made it an exciting game. We were able to take advantage of a couple of good hits. … We'd love to have another opportunity to play them. We know each other really well."

John Fedchock: Dedicated to Clifford Brown
At the performance, Fedchock will be premiering a new big band composition dedicated to Clifford Brown, featuring the Lars Halle Big Band and trumpeter Jon Barnes.
The Influence of Clifford Brown: Fedchock's New Composition
All About Jazz: How did you first get interested in Clifford Brown and his music? Which of his recordings are your favorites?
John Fedchock: I've been a fan of Clifford Brown since I first heard his recordings back when I was in college. I first picked up a Mercury EmArcy collection called The Quintet (1954), which included many of his most well-known solos and arrangements, including those that became my favorites from the Clifford Brown and Max Roach at Basin Street (Emarcy, 1956) recording. When I went on the road with Woody Herman at age 22, there was a trumpeter on the band named Mark Lewis, who was a Clifford Brown expert with two transcription books out. Hearing him play each night whetted my appetite even further to delve deeper into Clifford's legacy.
AAJ: What do you see as Brown's impact on modern jazz? Did he influence your trombone playing?
JF: Clifford's soloing was impeccable. There hasn't been a trumpeter since that doesn't owe something to Clifford Brown. His playing significantly affected the development and evolution of the modern jazz trumpeter, and in turn, the rest of the jazz world. His playing has affected my trombone playing, if not through specific content, in attention to detail. Every note of Clifford's counted, and every line made sophisticated musical sense. I try to hold myself to that same standard, which is the ultimate challenge.
AAJ: Tell us about the composition you're preparing for the Clifford Brown event in Philadelphia. How did it come about? What is the underlying concept or idea? How is it structured? What is the instrumentation? Is this going to be the premiere performance?
JF: When I was asked to write this piece, the request from those organizing the Symposium was to compose a piece that would be "influenced and informed" by Clifford's music. My first thoughts were of my favorite Clifford tunes, arrangements and solos, and many of those ideas became motifs from which to build the themes and form of the composition. I studied his music intently, and pulled out small ideas from solos and tunes, as well as looking at chord changes to his own tunes and standards he frequently played to better construct a harmonic base that would be similar to a framework that Clifford might choose to solo over.
I also took some ideas from his arrangements and even pulled out some things played by his sidemen, including Sonny Rollins. My goal was to write something original that had a Clifford familiarity about it. Clifford devotees will recognize bits and pieces if they listen carefully, but that's definitely not a prerequisite to enjoying the piece. The instrumentation is a standard big band with 5 saxophones, 5 trumpets, 4 trombones and piano/bass/drums. This performance will be the world premiere.
AAJ: The composition will be performed by the Lars Halle Big Band with [trumpeter] Marcus Belgrave. Did they have any influence on your composing?
JF: I've never worked with Lars' big band, but I have heard a nice CD of his, and have heard some wonderful things from musicians in the Philadelphia/South Jersey area about the band. I know many of the players that will be working with the band, and in some cases have played with them in other contexts. I'm looking forward to working with this band. Marcus Belgrave will be performing earlier in the program that evening, but will not be performing on my piece. The trumpet soloist for my piece will be Jon Barnes, a former student of George Rabbai at Rowan University, and now a graduate student at the Manhattan School of Music studying with Scott Wendholt. He's a wonderful player, and I'm sure will give my piece an exciting performance. The piece will also include a tenor sax solo by Victor North, along with some room for Lars at the drums.
AAJ: As the big band performs your work, what would you like them to be striving to express?
JF: To best reflect the spirit of Clifford's music, and execute the piece accurately, the band will need to combine two important elementsprecision and excitement. The piece was written with an overall hard bop concept, but it also gets a bit more modern in spots, so conceptually the band will need to be stylistically informed and musically flexible.
AAJ: Are you going to be present at the performance? Will you aid in rehearsals?
JF: That is all still in the works. My hope is to be at the initial read-through and final rehearsal, to give my thoughts regarding concept and to what we're shooting for stylistically. I also hope to be involved in conducting the piece at the premiere.
About John Fedchock
AAJ: What other composing and arranging have you done?
JF: I went to the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY to earn a Jazz Masters Degree, and studied arranging with Rayburn Wright. After leaving Eastman, I went on the road with Woody Herman for seven years, where I wrote my first charts. I ended up becoming Woody's musical director and writing most of the arrangements on Herman's very last two Grammy Award-nominated albums 50th Anniversary Tour (Concord, 1986) and Woody's Gold Star (Concord, 1987), which garnered accolades from jazz journalists worldwide. I still maintain a close association with the Herman orchestra, performing with the group on occasion and continuing to add my own compositions and arrangements to the band's library.
After leaving the band I moved to New York City and formed my John Fedchock New York Big Band. We have four albums out on the Reservoir label to date, with the most recent being the 2007 release Up & Running, which was on the charts for 17 weeks, getting up to #5 in the national jazz radio surveys. In 2003, I was honored by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences with a Grammy Award nomination for Best Instrumental Arranging on the band's No Nonsense (2002) CD.
In addition to writing for my own band, I regularly compose commissioned pieces for a variety of professional and educational groups, and have traveled internationally as a guest composer/conductor/soloist. Many of my jazz compositions and arrangements are published by Kendor Music and Walrus Music Publishing.
AAJ: How did you come up as a musiciangive us a brief musical bio from childhood on up to your early days as a professional.
JF: I was born and Raised in Cleveland, Ohio. At nine years-old, I chose the trombone. My very first teacher, from the age of nine all the way up until I was 17 or 18 years old, was Billy Lang who played with Ray Anthony and was a product of the big bands. The first thing he did was to start teaching me scales, and he'd have me play technical studies. Each lesson ended with us playing duets, two part harmony popular tunes, many of them with a swing feel to them which was invaluable because I was sitting next to someone who was interpreting the music correctly. I soon started to get a feel for his phrasing.
When I was about 16, Woody Herman brought his band to my school to play a concert and give a clinic, and that day changed my life because seeing his band made me realize you could still be a jazz musician in this day and age. His band was full of these 25 year-olds, and they were all playing this great music which wasn't just the old nostalgic stuff, but some fresh and exciting new things. That really gave me the drive to practice, get better and maybe some day get good enough to play with a band like that. That became my long term goal, to play with Woody Herman. I knew that was a tough goal to obtain but I knew I wanted to continue with my music. I went to The Ohio State University, and received a bachelors degree in Music Education as well as a bachelors degree in Jazz Studies Performance. My trombone teacher was Joseph Duchi.
I continued to follow Woody's band and every time they were around my area I would go to listen to them. I soon discovered that Woody was getting a lot of his players from the Eastman School of Music, so my next goal was to get into Eastman for grad school. At Eastman, I studied trombone with John Marcellus. He helped a lot with my technique, but he would also draw parallels to jazz. We'd be talking about legato and he would put on a Tommy Dorsey record or he'd talk about phrasing and he'd put on some Carl Fontana for me to listen to. A very "jazz-friendly" teacher, which can be rare at some conservatories.
During my time at Eastman, some friends introduced me to a few alumni that were on Woody Herman's band, and I gave them a demo tape of my playing. When an opening came up in the band, they called me. I started on the second trombone chair, the jazz chair, for about two and a half years, and then moved up to play lead.
AAJ: Who are some of your favorite trombone players. Who were your teachers and mentors on trombone?
JF: My other teachers are the ones I've never really studied with but have studied intensely. I've listened for hours to recordings of Carl Fontana, J. J. Johnson, Slide Hampton and Frank Rosolino, and when I was in high school Urbie Green was my ultimate hero. He could do anything and it taught me that I had to be able to do the same. At around that time Bill Watrous came out with all his big band recordings which were a huge inspiration. Here was a trombone player leading a big band in the '70s, which was unheard of. I've also always been a fan of trombonist Bennie Green and German trombonist, Albert Mangelsdorff.
I've been fortunate in the past several years to be able to work alongside some of my heroes. I became really great friends with Carl Fontana, and got to know Slide Hampton working along side him in the Carnegie Hall Jazz Band here in New York. I've also had the great pleasure being in playing situations with Urbie Green and Bill Watrous, both of whom have been very supportive of my musical ventures. I unfortunately never got the opportunity to work with J. J. or Frank Rosolino.
AAJ: What led you to organize your big band? How is that project going these days?
JF: I was out with Woody for seven years and it was so much fun, playing and writing, and getting the satisfaction of hearing my music back right after composing it, that after a year of being in New York I started to miss it. For me it's a labor of love to have a band playing my music, and I that I'm kind of carrying the torch that Woody passed on to me.
The work pattern has changed over the course of the past 15 or 16 years. When the band first started we played little clubs here in New York for not much money. But after the first album came out we started getting calls for larger venues and festivals. In recent months we've been back doing special performances in select clubs in NYC which has been a lot of fun. At the present time, I'm writing music for our next album, which may be including this new piece.

Clearly, it absolutely was actionable in The state. The state-The state Agreement and also the inclusion from the state scale benefits in Schedule ? for the state Insurance Act did not avoid the plaintiffs from suing in The state. The agreement itself had not been legislation and also the wording of the amendment for the Schedule had not been sufficiently clear to consider away an Their state resident's right of action.
In a recent case involving auto insurance pennsylvania an Their state plaintiff, Their state defendants plus an accident in The state, the state High Court, without referring with the idea to McLean or Going, held the applicable law was the law of the place where the motor vehicle accident occurred. However, it was reversed on appeal. In another recent case, Ang v. Track,91 which involved an insurance claim by an Their state resident under the Family Law Act against a Their state resident, the experience was allowed reluctantly. These cases illustrate the continuing doubts concerning the general application of McLean v. Pettigrew and it looks like the time is ripe because of its review although that, apparently, must come from the Top court of the nation. Learn more at the state's official web domain.
Reduce Co2 Emissions
ECO ECU Remapping: Increase MPG Minimize Co2
Given the present expense of fuel we all are looking for ways to minimize the price of fuelling our vehicles.ECU Remapping for fuel economy is among the most cost effective techniques for minimizing fuel costs in particular when tuning a Diesel Engine with the additional benefit of also decreasing the Co2 output through your car.
How will a ECO ECU Remapping enhance my Miles Per Gallon
If you have read our 'what's an ECU Remap page you will have a good grasp of just what it is we do when remapping your motorcar. Each time a client asks for an ECO ECU remap we bias the alterations to the ecu map in preference of having a significantly better fuel efficiency. There are lots of variables that we adjust to do this, however in general here is how it will work.
Firstly the torque (pulling power) of your engine is increased. The torque output of a typical engine is normally viewed as a graph or chart in which the level of engine torque is seen to rise with engine RPM until it peaks at a point (RPM) that is unique to each engine, also distinct to each engine will be the spread of RPM that this torque is maintained, called the torque band.
Then we change ECU remapping factors to transfer this torque band lower down the range of engine RPM. It has the result of supplying additional torque / engine power at lower RPM. This enables the driver to switch to a higher gear earlier before the ECU remap and so use a reduced amount of fuel.
What improvement in MPG will ECO ECU Remapping deliver?
Increases in MPG are generally within the range of 10% – 20%, but quite a few customers report much more than this and in some cases an increase in MPG of 30% are noticed, especially those who may have a Diesel ECU Remap.
As you have read within the above, the ECO ECU Remap principally gives an increase in engine torque / power that has been transferred to a reduced RPM. How a driver uses this added power is going to be demonstrated from the over-all fuel efficiency figures. Therefore the biggest element in what MPG you'll get after an ECO ECU remap will almost always be the driving style of the driver.
Remapping the ECU for Economy and cutting down on Co2 Emissions
The Co2 pollution levels of your vehicle undoubtedly are a direct consequence of the measure of fuel an engine burns. By reducing the total amount of fuel you use in your car by using an ECO ECU remap the Co2 emissions of that car will reduce by an amount that is comparable to the improved MPG figures.
Low-Priced Florida Car Insurance
When there is http://www.floridaautoinsurancefl.info/ whatever reason to believe the injury could be covered, the insured should inform the insurer. In Marcoux v. Halifax Fire Insurance Co.,14 the last Court of the nation stated:It is not the assured who is to look for the gravity of the injuries, and decide set up insurance provider should make a study. His obligation would be to give notice, the business will take measures it deems necessary.
At the mercy of statutory restrictions in some cases an insurer may excuse compliance with the requirement the insured fulfill the deadline or provide notice on paper. The insurer's conduct may be the same as an unequivocal statement the insurer has floridaautoinsurancefl.info elected to honour the claim notwithstanding the insured's failure to satisfy her obligation. Alternatively, the conduct may reasonably induce the insured to rely on the assumption that compliance is not needed, in which case the insurer will be estopped from depending on the breach.16 This can be complicated where notice is transmitted via an intermediary for example an insurance broker. Questions arise in regards to the broker's authority to bind the insurer17 (as an example, through the broker's assertion the time limits or writing requirements doesn't have to be complied with). If the intermediary has authority to talk for that insurer on these things there isn't any problem for that insured,18 but a real estate agent merely empowered to solicit insurance generally doesn't have such authority. Cheap auto insurance awaits at floridaautoinsurancefl.info!
Along with, or perhaps in addition to the filing of notice, the insured should also furnish sufficient proof of floridaautoinsurancefl.info ratesfacts which justify payment of the claim.20 The Bc regulations require this be provided within Ninety days in the date of the accident… inside a form authorised through the corporation. In Manitoba, the insured must furnish such proof of claim as is reasonably possible within three months of the . . . accident. The Saskatchewan requirement is similar, other than the time is Sixty days. The state regulations require the claimant must provide proof of all facts supporting his right to compensation. Under the non-government schemes, claimants must furnish such proof as is reasonably possible within Ninety days of the accident or when practicable thereafter. Generally speaking, the identical considerations discussed close to enough time limits for that filing of notice connect with the proof requirement, although not all schemes are as flexible in terms of time limits for proof because they are with notice.

A good part of the audience appeared critical of government efforts to reform health care, labeling it socialized medicine. About a dozen protesters at the front of the new center on Airline Highway objected to government-financed abortions.
At a press conference before the forum, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said she was glad to be able to respond "to some misinformation being circulated."
Sebelius said the House health care reform bill and the Senate Health Committee bills don't define the benefit packages that would be available under a revamped health delivery system.
A team of health care providers will recommend what would be covered, she said. "I think it would be wise to let science guide what the best health care package is," she said.
The plan does include plugging a prescription benefits "hole" in the Medicare program, she said. It also is meant to provide more opportunities for long-term care for seniors, especially since the current Medicare program is projected to be bankrupt in 2017.
Besides Sebelius, the panel included Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki.
One Terrytown veteran, Robert Lance, said veterans are tired of waiting for a hospital.
The New Orleans Veterans Administration hospital closed in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina.
A 30-year Marine Corps veteran, Lance said his only complaint was that "we have no hospital...Not one shovelful of dirt has been turned for a new hospital and we desperately need it."
Sebelius elicited discontented groans when she said discussions about the new hospital were under way with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Shinseki, however, said that the hospital is on its way. It also is a high priority because of the jobs and the medical training it will provide, he said.
The location of the facility is being worked out "with your leadership here," he said.
Shinseki said a schematic design has been completed, and the VA has set aside $600 million for construction, although the final cost will be an estimated $900 million. Plans are for the hospital to be finished and opened in 2013, when the number of veterans in the area is expected to reach 70,000.
Currently, there are about 39,000 veterans in the area, he said.
U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu said a discussion was planned Monday afternoon with Gov. Bobby Jindal about the hospital. Plans were for the governor and the secretaries to discuss making final decisions, she said.
Otherwise, Landrieu said the intent of the health care system reform was to contain rising costs and give everyone access to quality health care.
While some people think parts of the current system are good, most think it can be changed to be better, she said.
Landrieu said she planned to continue the discussion on reform at another forum in August.

On September 1, 2015, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society launched Operation Henkaku in Taiji, Japan. Please visit our Operation Henkaku page for the latest news and information about our dolphin defense campaign.
Visit our
Operation Henkaku
site for more information.
Sea Shepherd and Taiji.
In 2003, Sea Shepherd became actively involved in opposing the dolphin hunt in Taiji, Japan.
On October 6, 2003, after hiding out for several weeks in the cliffs overlooking the bay, crewmembers of Sea Shepherd's Taiji Dolphin Campaign covertly filmed and photographed the dolphin hunters killing dolphins in the cove. The shocking images revealing the blood-red waters of Taiji's killing cove sparked international outcry.
On November 18, 2003, two crewmembers, Allison Lance Watson and Alex Cornelissen, dove into the bay and swam out to free 15 dolphins penned in and to be killed the following morning. They were immediately arrested upon returning to shore. In order to help secure the release of Alex and Allison, Sea Shepherd Founder Captain Paul Watson wrote a letter to the Japanese police in which he stated that Sea Shepherd would not send anyone into Japan with the intention of breaking the law.
For the past several years, protestors and reporters have gone to Taiji on September 1st to document the beginning of the six-month seasonal hunt. In the fall of 2010, Captain Watson asked the question "What would happen if we never left Taiji?" He asked Sea Shepherd Director of Intelligence Scott West and his daughter Elora Malama West to "go find out." The two travelled to Taiji and were joined by several volunteers.
In 2010, the annual dolphin death toll was halved due to the ongoing presence of Sea Shepherd's Cove Guardians, who shocked the dolphin hunters with their cameras. For the first time, the entire dolphin hunt season was documented and recorded – the hunt was now exposed to the world.
Operation Infinite Patience
The 2011 dolphin hunt season sparked the beginning of the official Operation Infinite Patience, with Sea Shepherd volunteer Rosie Kunneke leading the effort on the ground.
Each year since, dedicated campaign leader Melissa Sehgal has led the on-ground Cove Guardian campaign with a growing multinational team volunteers. Sea Shepherd continues to abide by Japanese law while continuing to expose the daily atrocities that occur in Taiji.

I like the seeder. Last spring I copuldn't find my plates. I had to plant by hand. Oh my aching back! Thank goodnes I had help from a son and grandson. One made rows and one helped plant.
Now if the weathe would warm up a bit , I might get the garden planted.
My only sugesstion would be to devise a way to store the seeder plates on to the seeder so they would't get misplaced or thrown away by those who clean the garage.
Thank you for the fast service .

The Earthway seeder is one of the cheapest and most popular walk-behind seeders. There are other units out there that do a vastly better job (example: Hoss Seeder or Jang JP-1) but they are much more expensive, therefore the Earthway is a super valuable tool for the gardener. The additional seed plates will allow me to plant more seeds of various sizes. I would buy again the same stuff if money was an issue. If it is not, then I would hold out for one of the better units.

If you are hoping for a high-scoring shootout in the Super Bowl on Sunday, I think you are going to be disappointed. If you enjoy watching defense played very well, then this game could be for you.
The Packers and Steelers had two of the five best defenses in the NFL this season. Green Bay is number five overall, while Pittsburgh is second behind only San Diego.
Those rankings are based on yards per game, but I have always thought that a more important statistic is points allowed per game. When you break it down that way, these two teams are number one and number two in the League. The Steelers allowed just 14.5 points per game. The Packers allowed only 15.
Obviously those are averages, but if those numbers stayed constant on Sunday, the 29 points scored would be a tie for the third lowest-scoring Super Bowl ever.
Super Bowl IX saw 22 points scored. It was 23 in Super Bowl III. Just 29 total points were scored in Super Bowl V. Of course each of those games was played by the mid-1970s.
This was an era where every team in the NFL ran the ball more than they passed it. Heck, offensive linemen could not even use their hands to block. They had to hold them against their own chest with their elbows sticking out and all they could do was get in the way of a rushing defender.
The game evolved and the League started tweaking their rules to allow teams to score more easily and the offenses exploded. Hence, higher scoring Super Bowls.
Just because trends would indicate that Super Bowl XLV might be a rare low-scoring affair does not mean it will be boring. Well, at least to people who watch football on a regular basis and aren't just tuned in on Sunday because it is what everyone does.
Just a couple years ago in Super Bowl XLII only 31 total points were scored. The New York Giants beat New England 17-14 to end the Patriots run at a perfect 19-0 season. That was an exciting game to watch because neither team could pull away from the other.
I would certainly rather watch a tight, low-scoring affair like that than watch a game like Super Bowl XXIX that saw San Francisco jump out to huge lead and eventually beat San Diego 49-26. That game felt like it was over shortly after Kathie Lee Gifford finished the National Anthem.
(That's not a joke, by the way - Kathie Lee actually sang the National Anthem before the 1995 Super Bowl. My how things have changed.)
So, with that being said, don't be afraid of a low-scoring Super Bowl. You are going to see some of the top defensive players in the game on the field on Sunday. The list reads like a Pro Bowl roster:
Troy Polamalu. Clay Mathews, Jr. James Harrison. Charles Woodson. LaMarr Woodley. B.J. Raji.
For their offense to be effective, Green Bay will try to run the ball with rookie James Starks, who has come out of nowhere to average over 87 rushing yards per game this post-season.
For their offense to be effective, Pittsburgh will try to pass the ball, especially using deep threat Mike Wallace, who averaged over 20 yards per reception in the regular season.
I believe that neither team will be effective because the opposing defense will take those things away. That means the teams will have to become one-dimensional, which of course allows the defenses to tee off on them.
Despite that, Steeler running back Rashard Mendenhall will be just effective enough to get over 90 yards rushing, even with center Maurkice Pouncey unable to play. Packer quarterback Aaron Rodgers will complete about 55-percent of his passes for around 200 yards. Decent stats for both, but nothing that indicates a game-breaker.
The difference in this game will be which team forces the other into a key turnover and takes advantage of it. I believe the men from Pennsylvania will be that team.
Pittsburgh Steelers 17, Green Bay Packers 13.
Enjoy the big hits and amazing defensive stops, and ignore your friends who keep trying to convince you that this Super Bowl is boring.
