106.9's Official RockFrog Sits Patiently Waiting for His Ride [VIDEO]
Meet Rocky. He's been the official 106.9 station frog for about 12 seconds now, ever since I ran across this video, and decided it was weird enough to show you. Rocky leads a quiet life, he's pretty laid back, and likes to show off his manners whenever he can. Rocky does like to party though, and last Friday on 4/20, he was almost busted by the Austin Police when he attended the unveiling of the Willie Nelson statue, and over indulged in the sweet, sweet chiba. Check out this video of Rocky waiting for his ride to pick him up to attend the dedication.

Do you know what FOX needs more of? Sunday animated shows.
The network has added the animated comedy "Bob's Burgers" to its Animation Domination lineup for midseason.
In the series, the titular patriarch (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) is married to the lovely Linda (John Roberts) and with her ahs three kids: Tina (Dan Mintz), Gene (Eugene Mirman), and Louise (Kristen Schaal). As advertised, they own a burger joint. Hilarity, presumably, is served with a side of fries.
So far, the sneak peeks make the show appear to be quirky, but perhaps not laugh out loud funny. It's not lost on us that two of the famale characters are voiced by men either, but then again, Bart Simpson is voiced by Nancy Cartwright.
Check out the clips:
"Bob's Burgers" will be sandwiched (heh) between "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy" on the midseason schedule.

About this font family
Solaris is a sans serif or a grotesque as we still call it where I come from. (it is an old term which means strange compared with Roman which was the normal font) The face is an open sans, which means that the round signs take the air into the form, minuscule d is drawn kind of backwards like in Gill Sans, which sets off on minuskel a. Here is the Regular version, with a slightly difference between stems and hairlines.

O.C. focuses on getting drugged drivers off the roads
Capt. George Crum can pick out meth users by the clench in their jaws. He can detect heroin in the slow pulse of an addict, and he knows that someone on cocaine might count one-one-thousand to 30 in about 10 seconds.
Crum works as a drug-recognition expert for the Fullerton police. He's part of a growing effort to get drugged drivers off the road – an effort that involves police, prosecutors and high technology, and has quietly made Orange County a model in California.
The push to get drugged drivers off the road has come with its own set of challenges. A street cop, for example, may recognize the blood-shot eyes and boozy smell of a hard drinker, but maybe not the slow response of a meth user's eyes to light. A prosecutor can convict a drunken driver with one pivotal piece of evidence, a .08 percent blood-alcohol level – but there's no such legal limit for marijuana or Xanax.
The state's Office of Traffic Safety has backed Orange County's efforts with hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants. Most recently, it awarded $480,000 late last month to train more police officers as drug experts, help the Orange County crime lab process drug evidence and send prosecutors into court to fight for convictions.
Orange County has been "more aggressively out front" in going after drugged-driving cases, said Chris Cochran, a spokesman for the Office of Traffic Safety. "Everybody recognizes the problem," he added, but Orange County has been "the most together on it."
The percentage of California traffic deaths that involve drugs has grown steadily in recent years, statistics kept by the Department of Motor Vehicles show. Drugs were involved in just over a quarter of crash deaths in 2010, the most recent year available, up from 11.5 percent in 2000.
In Orange County, prosecutors filed more drugged-driving cases in the first nine months of 2012 than in all of 2010. The Orange County Crime Lab is experimenting with new ways to detect drugs. But it starts with officers on the street like George Crum.
Exams are thorough
Crum is one of more than 150 specially trained drug-recognition officers in Orange County; the recent state grant will send that number past 200. If he pulls you over and thinks you're impaired, you won't get away with the usual walk-a-line and touch-your-nose impairment tests.
Crum will take your pulse. He'll check your blood pressure. He'll shine a light in your eyes and watch for clues – grinding teeth, a clenched jaw, rigid posture – that might point to drug use. His exams can take more than half an hour.
Often, it's another officer who makes the stop and then radios for Crum or another drug expert when something doesn't seem right. Still, Crum says, "quite frankly, we're missing it. Untrained officers are missing people driving under the influence" of drugs.
A recent survey of drivers on California roads found that nearly one in seven had illegal or prescription drugs in their systems that could make them dangerous behind the wheel. That was nearly twice the rate of drivers found to have even trace amounts of alcohol.
The survey, though, did not address whether the drivers had enough drugs or alcohol in their systems to be impaired. Crum, also, cannot put a number on the level of drugs in someone's body; he and the other drug experts focus on the unusual behaviors that suggest a driver is on something. The blood tests that prove it happen at the Orange County Crime Lab.
The blood samples arrive every morning in manila packets sent by officers in the field. The forensic scientists who work there – most with degrees in chemistry or biology – test the vials of blood first for alcohol. A .08 percent reading or above means no further testing is necessary, the driver was legally under the influence.
But blood samples that test below that threshold move on to the next level of testing, which looks for drugs. A machine takes a drip of blood and mixes it with solutions that react to the presence of an array of legal and illegal drugs. Dull yellow means it's found something.
The tests take several hours each, and it can take several days to get a report back to police and prosecutors. "It's not quite like 'CSI,'" said Jennifer Harmon, the assistant director of the crime lab. "It takes a little bit longer."
But most of the tests still can't say how much of a drug is in a driver's blood, only that it's there. That has tripped up juries before, who question whether the mere presence of a drug – say, Ambien or Vicodin – is enough to find someone guilty of driving under the influence.
The lab is about to start using a powerful new machine that runs blood samples through tubes as fine as hairs and looks for the chemical fingerprints of different drugs. The $350,000 machine – paid for with one of the Traffic Safety grants – then goes one step further: It can measure the concentration of a drug.
The lab plans to start using the machine in February to test for prescription medications such as Valium, Xanax and Ambien. It has two other machines on order and a goal of running all suspected-DUI blood samples through them within two years. That would give prosecutors a number – a measure of how much drug is in a driver's system – to put in front of a jury in every case.
Educating jurors
Deputy District Attorney Susan Price had no such hard-and-fast number in 2008, when she began work on cases against two drivers who hit people while on prescription drugs. One of the drivers killed a 14-year-old boy in Huntington Beach; the other killed a mother on a bicycle ride with her autistic son in Seal Beach.
"How am I going to prove drug intoxication in these two cases?" she remembers thinking. "How do you go about educating your jurors about the impairing effect of prescription drugs and how (they) affect the ability of the driver to operate his or her vehicle?"
Price won both cases; the drivers had been so erratic, their behaviors so unusual, that the juries didn't need blood-level tests to know something was wrong with them. But the experience made Price realize that drug cases needed more attention.
She applied for the first state grant to go after drugged drivers, $640,000 awarded in 2011 that helped Orange County begin to put together its multi-agency effort. Part of that grant allowed four deputy district attorneys to focus more on drug-related DUI cases.
Statistics from the District Attorney's Office show that DUI-drug cases were up in 2012, along with convictions. Prosecutors had filed more than 1,500 cases through September, and won convictions in 95 percent of them. In all of 2010, the District Attorney's Office filed about 1,400 DUI-drug cases and won convictions in 92 percent of them.
"I believe that drug-impaired driving is the biggest threat to the safety of residents in this county and the state," Price said. "This is, hands down, the most dangerous behavior facing the drivers on the roadway."

Ek Nanad Ki Khushiyon Ki Chaabi…Meri Bhabhi is the comeback vehicle of the talented actor who was last seen in Ek Ladki Anjaani Si
Kanchi Kaul talks about life post marriage to beau Shabbir Ahluwalia, her new show Meri Bhabhi and why daily soaps are better than reality shows.
You earlier did a show called Bhabhi – how different is Meri Bhabhi?
I had earlier done a show called Bhabhi on Star Plus, in which I played the bhabhi (brother's wife). Here I am playing the nanad (sister-in-law). It's a very different role, a different show altogether. The show is very progressive and a positive story with a strong character who has several layers to herself.
How similar is Kanchi to Shraddha?
We are actually very similar. I have a bhabhi in real life, so I can relate to the character I play onscreen. We share all our secrets and problems. In the show also, the family is a close-knit one and that's exactly how my family in real life is. Meri Bhabhi is a very 'today' story. Everyone can relate to it.
Does your husband Shabbir Ahluwalia give his opinion on the show?
We are both supportive of each other's career. We give opinions and positive feedback about each other's work to help each other.
Has life changed after marriage?
Not at all – it has just become better. It's like marrying your best friend!
Shabbir has got into production big time – have you seen his shows?
I have seen Savdhaan India and Savitri and we are producing the remake of Zanjeer as well. My participation in the production work is at a bare minimum. I am busy with this show and he is doing a great job with the production. Both the TV shows are phenomenal.
Are you planning to do a show with him?
We spend a lot of time with each other, so the need to work together never really came up. However, if something comes up where I fit in, I am sure we can do it together.
How is your equation with Esha Kansara from Meri Bhabhi?
Our equation is good. We hit it off right from the time we met. She's a great girl and is very hard working. We always help each other in scenes and stuff like that. After spending so much time together, you tend to become close as the show progresses. She puts in a lot of effort and I'm glad we have a great chemistry.
How was it working with Supriya Pilgaonkar and Kanwaljit Singh?
They are very senior actors. However, on the set it doesn't feel like they are seniors – they are both such wonderful human beings; they have this warmth that makes it very easy being around them. I can talk about anything with Supriyaji, right from shopping to anything, while Kukuji is like a father on and off screen.
How is your equation with Vipul Gupta – your onscreen brother?
Vipul pulls my leg a lot. We are neighbours in real life and it's a very friendly relationship with him; we have pillow fights and a lot of things like that.
Which show do you think is the biggest competition for Meri Bhabhi?
The show is unique and novel. It explores many relationships. The story of a daughter coming back home after an unsuccessful marriage, how the parents welcome her and help her move on is a different kind of story. Hence I do not think it has any competition. No other channel has such a show.
Daily soap or reality show?
Daily soap any day, 'coz fiction lasts longer, it's somewhere that your character becomes your identity. It's a lovable character, plus people relate to you. They have a longer memory of the characters you play. Reality shows are a three month thing, but in this you get to show your acting skills.
When you are not acting, what do you do?
I hang out with my husband and go scuba diving. Whenever we get a break, we head up to the mountains.
How, according to you, has TV changed?
Hours have become better, working conditions have improved. Progressive thoughts have come into shows. We have started making a bank of episodes, no last minute work. Things are pretty organised; actor's and productions house's time is respected. So I think a lot has changed.

A very well fitted out and comfortable room and bed with attached bathroom. The hosts were very welcoming and organised with lots of information on how to get there and what to do. The location was excellent with easy public transport connections into downtown, many local restaurants and cafes and a very short bus ride to the adjacent Noe valley shops. This area is also very safe during the day and at night.
We found our stay very enjoyable. Nick and Laurence were very helpful and gave us plenty of information about the area.
A good location in lively Castro!! Near MUNI and Buses.
Thank you,
Víctor and Laura
We have spent three nights in the really nice city "San Francisco". Laurence and Nick were great hosts. they were here for all our questions. We got a really nice room and a bathroom for us. Laurence and Nick let us all interesting documentations about San Francisco (Places to see, restaurants,...) Their home is a nice house in a typical and quiet street of Francisco in the Castro area (not far from bars and restaurants of Castro). We were 2minutes walking from metro and buses.
We had a lovely time in SF, and staying at your house was part of it. We would definitely come back at your place and surely recommend it. Excellent location (metro, buses, historic tramway), charming district (residential, quiet, and at the same time very close to many bars and restaurants). The room itself is perfect : very clean, comfy bed, bathroom very well equipped, fridge, coffee machine, etc. Excellent communication before and during the stay. Laurence was there to welcome us, took his time to explain everything, he's a super host ! We also received a "welcome" email from Nick on the day we checked in. Thanks for everything !
We are back at this Victorian Home for a second time. Our first was a month in San Francisco in September where we rented their full apartment unit on the lower level. This visit was short but we wanted the same location and stayed in the room in the Victorian Home. The accommodations were comfortable, clean and exactly what we needed for our short stay. Anything needed was readily available with a quick email request. The location is perfect for our needs and easily accessible to transportation, restaurants and beautiful walks as desired. We will return and have already recommended to our family and friends.
Clean and Nice room, great hospitallity and a good location. Nearby Metro station and restaurants. Great host, you can just ask anything and they gladly help you. / Jenny and joni
We had a wonderful time in San Francisco and our room at Laurence's lovely house did not disappoint either. It was basically what you see in the pictures, clean, comfortable, roomy, and with everything you could need. The bed is very comfy and there is a lot of storage space. The other perk of this place, aside from Laurence's fabulous hospitality, is its location. Castro is a great area that just gives you a comforting and fun feeling - it has a great atmosphere! It is also very conveniently located to public transport. Thanks to Laurence again for opening up his home to us travellers!
The property is very well located. The room is spacious and with all the needs we needed in our trip. Laurence was very helpful with all the questions about the city. We will definitively come back to San Francisco and we will definitively recommend this property.
Perfect room for a stay in San Francisco in the Castro neigborhood, where finding a place to eat or drink is never difficult . Clean and tastefully decorated room, in a beautiful house; most helpful hosts (Laurence and Nick), who are available when you need them, but don't interfere with your activities if this isn't needed. Some outside noise, but acceptable.

But that is the official explanation of Mother's Day.
To the rest of us, it is a reminder to remember the first heartbeat you ever heard. To connect once again with the memories from the first time you fell when trying to walk and who was there to pick you up -- to the recent time you fell, no matter your age, and who was there to pick you up.
It is a time to honor the woman who carried you inside her body for (hopefully nine months but sometimes less) and has covered your back ever since that time.
It is a time to honor a woman who isn't perhaps your biological mother, but one who meets all the criteria and more.
It is a time to honor your place in life with the basic strengths that came from the woman who did what no other person could do for you.
It is not necessarily flowers, candy or gifts and cards. It is a reminder for all of us to take a moment, reflect on what that mother figure meant in our lives and then take the time to tell her, if possible.
If it is not possible because she is no longer here, then we can do something for a mother who is still here to encourage and appreciate her in her job as we bring to the forefront the importance of a mother's position in all our lives.
It is a time for young women and mothers to renew their resolve and acknowledge the responsibility they take on to become a mother.
It is a time to reconnect, forgive, try to understand and let go, if there is a chasm between you and your mother.
It is also a time to appreciate, respect and pay tribute to the joy and indescribable rewards of being a mother.
Sunday, May 13, is Mothers Day.
There is not a person that has ever been or is now on earth that does not have a mother, even those who may have never known one.
We encourage you to take five minutes to remember, think about and appreciate your mother. We also encourage everyone to take five minutes to let their mother know what they remember, what they have thought about and show appreciation in whatever method they choose.
If we do that, then the day has served its purpose and mothers and children are all the better for it.
Happy Mothers Day!

Beaumont/Port Arthur
As winter weather slowly recedes from Southeast Texas and spring takes its place, the city of Beaumont is doing a little pre-spring cleaning in areas of the city most affected by trash and other litter as part of the statewide Texas Trash Off. Rain or shine, city officials are hoping Beaumont's second annual Trash Off will be one to remember. "We had 750 volunteers come out last year, which was a fantastic turnout, and they picked up nearly three tons of trash here in the city," said city spokeswoman Danielle Underferth.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

The Cardinall's Musick
Vocal Ensemble
The Cardinall's, in any case, could make music out of a John Prescott speech
The Times
A 'jewel in the crown' of early-music consorts, The Cardinall's Musick specialises in music of the 16th and 17th centuries. Through a large number of award-winning recordings and concerts they have rapidly established, under Andrew Carwood's direction, an enviable reputation as one of the most expressive, entertaining and professional ensembles in the world, re-creating the sounds of the past in a way that makes them live in the present.
Founded in 1989, The Cardinall's Musick is a highly successful and innovative ensemble. Taking its name from the 16th-century cardinal, Thomas Wolsey, the group is known for its extensive study of English Renaissance music. Although primarily a vocal group, The Cardinall's Musick also has its own period instrumental ensemble, and now embraces a wide range of styles and periods: from complete reconstructions of historical events (the Field of the Cloth of Gold) to world premieres of commissioned music from composers such as Michael Finnissy, Simon Whalley, Matthew Martin and Judith Weir.
One of the group's main strengths lies in the combination of solid academic research and the singers' ability to perform as soloists within a team, 'preserving their vocal personalities rather than striving for a mellifluous blend … resulting in a vibrant texture of timbres' (The Daily Telegraph). Add a sincere love of the music and a deep personal commitment in performance, and 'the voices of Andrew Carwood and his eight cohorts could probably start a blaze in the Antarctic!' (The Times). Their thoughtful, themed programmes are designed to stimulate and enlighten, to broaden horizons and bring a fresh approach to standard repertoire.
The Cardinall's Musick has performed at the most prestigious UK festivals, including Spitalfields, Bath, Chester, Aldeburgh, the Three Choirs and the BBC Proms, as well as throughout Europe. Its prize-winning discography includes music by Nicholas Ludford, William Cornysh, Robert Fayrfax, Lassus, Palestrina and Victoria. They have won the Gramophone Award for Early Music no fewer than four times: in 1995, 2006, 2007 and 2010 for recordings of Fayrfax, Tallis and (twice) Byrd. Other discs have been short-listed in 2000, 2001, 2004 and 2009. The Cardinall's Musick has received a French Diapason d'Or, a German Schallplatten Kritik Preis and a Schallplatten Echo Award. They have recently completed a remarkable project to record the complete Latin works from one of England's greatest composers, William Byrd.
'Thomas Tallis: Missa Puer natus est nobis'
Hyperion CDA 68026It's sung here with customary perfection by the Cardinall's Musick, who polish other Tallis gems alongside it, most notably Videte miraculum, a work of such sensuous beauty it quite eclipses the Mass.
Stephen Pritchard, The Observer -
'Sacred Music by Robert Parsons', Hyperion Records CDA 67874
December 2011Director Andrew Carwood draws earthy, visceral performances; the ensemble's virile sound and Parsons's sinewy polyphony are a far cry from what some critics describe as the 'whitewashed' English choral tradition. Carwood and his singers highlight the inherent drama of Parsons's style…The basses resonate magnificently in Peccantem me quotidie, in Holy Lord God Almighty and in the hauntingly austere Libera me, while by contrast, the monumental Magnificat sounds radiant. Perhaps the crowning glory of the disc is the final Ave Maria, the slow and poignant unfolding of which echoes long in the memory
Kate Bolton, BBC Music MagazineAs is by now well-established, The Cardinall's Music is a highly skilled, tightly disciplined and energetic choir able easily to tackle even the most elaborate polyphony. Its performances' on this disc are true to form: colourful, forceful and dynamic. The Magnificat in particular is bursting with vitality, while the three funeral responds are sung with equal muscularity ,albeit more sombre in mood. Even the performance of the delicate and graceful Ave Maria motet, whose music builds to a climactic final line and 'Amen', is rendered with pronounced drive, Carwood directing the voices with rhythmic élan
Christopher Price, International Record ReviewThe Cardinall's Musick are at their best in this repertoire, and their performances have confidence and authority…Parsons certainly deserves the hearing that Carwood's musicians afford us, so this addition to the catalogue is very valuable
Fabrice Fitch, Gramophoneone may expect the incidence of Parson's music on programmes to increase significantly especially after such a fine sound as Carwood generates
Rick Jones, Classic FMThe recording has deep perspective and clarity with the sequence of works, mostly scored for low voices, given fluid, impassioned readings, with vibrant bass sonorities providing an almost instrumental foundation…tonal beauty, impeccable ensemble and blend.
Rebecca Taverner, Choir and Organ -
'Missa Cantantibus Organis'
Hyperion CDA 67860a fascinating work and a fine performance
Andrew MacGregor, BBC Radio 3this is all really exciting stuff and should be heard by anybody who cares about music of the late-16th century.
David Fallows, GramophoneCarwood nails it – again' , 'these performers capture the creative confidence of Rome's composing community in the decades either side of the 16th century's turn […] exuberance and ensemble excellence […] this album works like a finely tuned time machine. It's hard to imagine how its contents could be better served on disc.
Classic FM Magazinewonderful build-up in sonority is deftly managed by the singers [...] utter transparency giving way to rich harmony', 'thoroughly recommended [...] it's bracing, pleasingly unsentimental but still movingly expressive
Simon Heighes, International Record Reviewthe vocalists use declamation to emote, transporting the listener from sorrow to transcendent joy [..] this recording's breadth of moods, devices and styles is refreshing [..] Carwood teases out the work's numinous qualities
Berta Joncus, BBC Music Magazinenew treasure' [of which the Missa Cantantibus Organis is] 'the chief delight', 'sung here with the brilliance and clarity we have come to expect from this outstanding ensemble
Stephen Pritchard, The ObserverThe Cardinall's Musick offers a sumptuous body of sound that revives the well-known Miserere and brings to life the multiple-author Mass
Claudine Nightingale, Choir&OrganThe Cardinall's Musick perform it with their usual refinement
Paul Gent, The Telegraph -
The 20 Greatest Choirs
January 2011The word-(not sound-)based approach of The Cardinall's Musick plucks them from angelic realm with bigger, more individual voices (and vibrato!) that use what might be called 'Romantic' gestures. The ensemble's workshops in schools make a fine starting-point.
Eric Whitacre, Gramophone -
'Missa Congratulamini Mihi'- Guerrero (Hyperion Records)
Recorded at the Fitzalan Chapen, Arundel, April 2009The Cardinall's Musick have only just completed their wonderful Byrd project and here they are with this first-rate exploration of the music of Guerrero... the singers show verve and polish in equal measure… Andrew Carwood's singers respond with an equal measure of buoyancy and vigour... anyone interested in the siglo de oro will regard this as essential listening
Gramophone 'Editor's Choice' October 2010[the pieces] are delivered with the combination of superb ensemble, and perfectly characterised vocal lines that is the persistent hallmark of this outstanding group; the sound is rich, full and gently resonant.
Andrew Clements, The Guardiana leading exponent of Renaissance music, retaining the essential quality of individual vocal timbres that contribute to a refined, characterful mix and with a polish that is second to none… the entire disc, with various shorter pieces as complements, is captivating in its fluency and expressive power.
Geoffrey Norris, The Telegraph -
Kilkenny Arts Festival
The Black Abbey, 7 August 2010"it was clear that this was to be an evening of compellingly-projected, full-toned, gorgeously resonant singing. It was the kind of evening which had one pinching oneself to check that such edifices of sound could be produced by such a small number of voices "
Michael Dervan, Irish Times – 'Festival Highlight 2010' -

Sample Programmes for The Cardinall's Musick
- William Byrd was the greatest English composer of the 16th century. His life spanned a period of huge political and religious upheaval through which he clung to his Catholic beliefs in spite of the repression of a reformed government. He composed throughout his long life, producing his most spritely and modern sounding music in his later years. It was surely his great abilities and the esteem in which he was held which allowed him to survive in Protestant England.
- The first part of this programme is given over the Byrd's powerful Mass for Five Voices together with Gregorian chant and two motets from his 1591 collection. The second half explores Byrd's works in English including two movements from his monumental ten-voiced Great Service (probably written in the 1590s for the Chapel Royal) and four pieces in English which are rarely performed. Byrd was a resolute Catholic but also a convinced Englishman and this programme allows an exploration of his unique position in 16th century society.
- 'Il siglo d'oro' – the Golden Age – was the name that Spaniards gave to their great flowering of music in the sixteenth. Spain brought forth some of the finest writers of the age and the Virgin Mary was a popular subject with all of them.
- Francisco Guerrero was known as 'el cantor de Maria'. Much of his highly characterful music was dedicated to the Virgin from well-crafted four-part pieces to the more splendid double choir numbers. This fascinating exploration of music from sixteenth century Spain sets Guerrero alongside his contemporaries and colleagues Morales, Esquivel, Vivanco, Alonso Lobo and the brightest star of all, Tomas Luis da Victoria.
- KEEPING THE FAITH: TALLIS, BYRD & 16th CENTURY ENGLAND
- Thomas Tallis and William Byrd, not only business partners and colleagues but also close friends and ones who shared a devotion to the Catholic world of early 16th century England. It is fitting therefore that they should share equal billing in this programme of Tudor music. The concert opens with Tallis' famous tune Why fum'th in fight which so captivated Ralph Vaughan Williams and led to the writing his Tallis Fantasia. Set against this simplicity is the opulent polyphony of his Missa Salve intemerata virgo and the antiphon of the same name. William Byrd propels the listener forward into the later sixteenth century with two stunning motets before his thoughtful and well-crafted set of Mass Propers for the Assumption of the Virgin - music almost certainly written for the now illegal Catholic services. Tribue Domine is a riot of energy and imagination as it celebrates the triumph of the Trinity.
- Elizabeth I, one of the most famous and admired of English monarchs, died in 1603 after a life filled with trauma and success, trials and victories. This programme (introduced and narrated by Andrew Carwood) traces her remarkable life. The first half concerns the early years until her coronation in 1558. Here are the imposing characters of her father and mother, Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, her brother and sister, Edward VI and Mary and her great ally Cardinal Pole, together with the story of the Reformation. Whilst in the second half is music concerned with her reign, celebrating the defeat of the Spanish Armada and the long list of Elizabeth's suitors.

With former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney now the presumptive Republican nominee, this is shaping up as possibly the most unusual presidential race in history when it comes to health care.
Although health care is rarely a deciding issue in campaigns, it has almost always been a major point of contention. Every candidate for president in recent memory needed to have a health care "plan," and typically the Republican and Democratic versions of these plans presented starkly different visions for the future. But they were always just visions, outlines (more or less detailed) of plans that never came to fruition.
Until 2010, that is, when the Affordable Care Act (ACA) passed. Now, for the first time, a President is truly running on his health care record. We don't need to wait for President Obama's health care plan: it's the ACA. Although the ACA is not fully litigated (literally or figuratively), it is the law and as such represents a detailed platform the President will have to advocate for and defend.
Perhaps ironically, the Massachusetts health reform legislation Governor Romney signed into law in Massachusetts is quite similar to the ACA. But while Romney continues to support the Massachusetts approach for Massachusetts, he has clearly stated that he does not support it as a matter of national policy and indeed argues for the repeal of the ACA. So far, we have only the barest outline of Romney's official position on what he would replace the ACA with, so we need to read a bit between the lines.
The overarching differences between the candidates on health reform and public programs like Medicare and Medicaid have received more attention, but they also envision divergent futures for private insurance. There's no one right way to create a fair insurance market, but different choices have consequences. How accessible will coverage be for people with preexisting health conditions? What benefits will insurance provide and at what cost to patients?
President Obama and Private Insurance
The basics of the ACA's private insurance provisions are by now reasonably well known:
- Beginning in 2014, all insurers would be required to take anyone, including those with preexisting health conditions. Premiums could vary to some extent by age but not by sex or health status.
- All insurers selling coverage to individuals and small businesses would be required to include a set of "essential health benefits" (which could vary state-by-state), as well as preventive services.
- The generosity of coverage (as measured by the amount of cost sharing patients face) would be standardized into so-called "metallic tiers" (bronze, silver, gold, and platinum). A bronze plan, which is the minimum that people would be required to buy, would pay for 60% of the cost of covered services on average. An analysis the Kaiser Family Foundation just released found that bronze plans would likely have very high deductibles, meaning the minimum coverage people would have to purchase would provide only catastrophic protection, along with up-front coverage of preventive services with no patient cost sharing. However, anyone would be free to buy more comprehensive coverage, and many probably would do so.
There's little question that these changes would result in a more accessible insurance system, providing guaranteed access to coverage for those with preexisting health conditions, along with subsidies to make insurance more affordable. However, to make these reforms work, the ACA also includes the politically divisive individual mandate to buy insurance, which the Supreme Court will soon pass judgment on.
Governor Romney and Private Insurance
Instead of the additional rules for insurers in the ACA, Governor Romney proposes to "limit federal standards and requirements on both private insurance and Medicaid coverage." He also says that consumers should be allowed "to purchase insurance across state lines." This would have the effect of diminishing insurance regulation at the state level, as insurers would seek to sell coverage in loosely regulated states. According to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), this could result in an "erosion" in the availability of coverage for people with high health care needs. However, the CBO also notes that the cost of individual health insurance could be reduced by 5% if all states had mandated benefits equal to those in states that now impose the least expensive requirements.
To provide access to coverage for people with preexisting health conditions, Governor Romney proposes "flexibility to help the chronically ill, including high-risk pools, reinsurance, and risk adjustment." High-risk pools—which segregate people with expensive health conditions from the rest of the insurance market—are, in theory, a viable strategy. But to make them effective, the coverage needs to be adequate and the premiums affordable, which would require a significant infusion of subsidies. It's not yet clear whether Romney is prepared to make such subsidies available.
As with previous Republican presidential candidates, Governor Romney also places a strong emphasis on high-deductible insurance plans paired with health savings accounts (HSAs), proposing to "unshackle HSAs by allowing funds to be used for insurance premiums." This would likely accelerate the shift to higher deductibles and more patient cost sharing, which he argues will "drive quality up and cost down."
The insurance market is already moving in that direction. The percentage of insured workers with a deductible for single coverage of $1000 or more increased from just 10% in 2006 to 31% in 2011. That, along with the lingering economic downturn, may be part of the reason why utilization of physician services has fallen substantially. These trends are likely to continue, regardless of how this year's election turns out.
But this election could be a turning point for the future shape of private health insurance.

Microsoft whips Apple with global Xbox TV deals
Gaming network taps up broadcasters
Posted in Cloud, 13th October 2011 16:17 GMT
If the Xbox Live network was a cable operator it would be the largest such operator in the world, with 35 million customers, which is why Microsoft is turning the Xbox into an over-the-top TV delivery device – something it has dreamed of ever since it first made the Xbox one of its IPTV Mediaroom set-tops.
Redmond announced the venture this week. The global breadth of the venture, as well as the maturity of the video, is such that it may appear as if Microsoft has succeeded where Apple failed: creating a rival for cable TV over the internet. However if we look more deeply at the announcement we see that this is far from the case.
This is because Xbox is in fact partnering with cable and using those partnerships to continue its war with Sony and its PlayStation. There will be some subscription revenue here for Microsoft, but mostly it simply makes the device and the Live network more appealing than the Sony alternatives.
Microsoft has announced deals around the world with 40 more major TV and entertainment providers, and lists its partners in the US as: Bravo, Comcast, HBO GO, Verizon FiOS and Syfy. It has a deal with the BBC in the UK, Telefónica in Spain, Rogers in Canada, Televisa in Mexico, ZDF in Germany and MediaSet in Italy. Microsoft said it would begin rolling out entertainment services in more than 20 countries over the holiday season.
The truth is that this announcement is not that revolutionary. Most of these players are forced to work with Microsoft products to deliver to the PC anyway, and in many cases will be using Microsoft-originated or Microsoft-approved video formats and its PlayReady DRM – perhaps with additional software fortification. What Microsoft has done is to partner with a broadcaster in each country to allow the Xbox to be a terminal for its OTT offering, directing it through the Live network.
What Apple and others have tried to do is work with content creators, but against existing content operators: going up against them rather than act as a conduit for their rapidly developing TV Everywhere strategies, designed as they are to support the status quo and support every one of these partners in their existing business, rather, than set itself up as a rival. This is the Xbox becoming an even cheaper TV streaming box than the Roku, by dint of the fact that you've already paid for it, as opposed to it becoming another Netflix class company.
Microsoft points out that Xbox Live has 35 million members worldwide who spend in total 2.1 billion hours a month on the service. Video consumption is the fastest area of growth for the network.
"Today's announcement is a major step toward realising our vision to bring you all the entertainment you want, shared with the people you care about, made easy," said Don Mattrick, president of the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft. "Combining the world's leading TV and entertainment providers with the power of Kinect for Xbox 360 and the intelligence of Bing voice search will make TV and entertainment more personal, social and effortless."
Comcast had already referred to the service in a letter sent this week to the US regulator the FCC, uncovering the fact that it was partnering with Microsoft's Xbox.
In a number of cases Microsoft is seen here as partnering on its current hot technology Kinect: in particular it plans this with Comcast, and with Verizon FiOS TV. Kinect can detect hand movements and turn them into remote control commands and can also work alongside Bing voice commands.
Eric Bruno, veep of consumer and mass business product management for Verizon, said: "FiOS TV on the Xbox 360 is an excellent example of how we're working with market leaders to erase old technology borders to expand the FiOS TV experience and taking advantage of unique new features including voice- and gesture-control of live TV entertainment via Kinect. This holiday, Verizon will bring a selection of popular live TV channels to Xbox 360 and will be a leader in delivering live, multichannel streaming HD TV, integrated with Kinect, via Xbox."
Each case will be different, but it doesn't look like much money is going to change hands here in terms of adding new subscribers. Instead, Xbox Live becomes part of the TV Everywhere experience for each of these major Pay TV operators. We expect that Netflix and Hulu Plus customers will be able to sign up to the service via Live, but for others they will have to be subscribers already.
Deals had already been struck in the past with AT&T, Netflix and Hulu Plus in the US, Telus in Canada, BSkyB in the UK, Canal+ in France, Vodafone Portugal, VimpelCom in Russia and Foxtel in Australia and these services will continue as well as the 40 new deals.
Jeff Weber, vice president of video services at AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets, said in a press release: "Nearly a year ago, AT&T U-verse became the first TV provider in the US to launch live TV on Xbox 360. Now we look forward to working with Microsoft to deliver even more innovative features that will allow U-verse TV customers to use voice and gesture controls to manage their TV experience.
"Through our Microsoft partnership, AT&T U-verse TV has been a leader in delivering a multiscreen and interactive TV experience that offers customers more personalization, more control and more integration across devices."
Live will also have on-demand sports content from ESPN in the US, GolTV in Spain and from Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment/Real Sports in Canada.

Surprise surprise, it's another beautiful day in NYC and almost 60 degrees! Today my animal instincts told me to wear this colorful morphed Topshop tee that has been sitting in my closet for a while now. And since I was feeling the color, I decided to add a little pop with this fluro skinny belt from ASOS. My leather pants were a no brainer, but I think I should switch it up a little more with my bottoms. Tonight I'm going Champagning at the Dream Midtown thanks to miss Nicole Stillings. It's all about the tastemakers. Have a great day!

The Battle of Kikyō Pass (桔梗峠の戦い, Kikyō Tōge no Tatakai) was a battle between Konohagakure shinobi and an unknown group. The battle took place at the end of the Third Shinobi World War.[1] In the aftermath of the battle, it is said that a captain of the Medic Corps, Nonō Yakushi, found a single survivor from amongst the dead enemies: a young Kabuto, and taught him basic medical ninjutsu. However, this story was actually fabricated by Orochimaru.[2]
This battle was first mentioned by Anko Mitarashi before the preliminaries of the Third Exam in the Chūnin Exams, just after Kabuto announced that he would not battle.[3]

[There was a video here]
For most of us, July 4th is just a steamy, fading memory. But the cast of Logo's The A-List must relive it again and again as they fight and fuss their way across Fire Island. Oh, what a scene.
We were on Fire Island for the Fourth of July as well, but we seem to have missed all the shenanigans. Luckily we overheard obnoxious fags Dustin and Jayden talking all about the events of the day at Sip 'N' Twirl on July 5th. Here's what they had to say.
"Lady! Love your striped tank top."
"No, lady. I love your striped tank top."
"No, yours!"
"Guess who else was wearing a striped tank top?"
"Ew, is he here with his nasty, small-dicked boyfriend Reichen?"
"Yes, did you see them?"
"No, did they go to Low Tea?"
"Middle Tea?"
"High Tea?"
"Lina Tea?"
"No way."
"Mister Tea?"
"No they didn't go to any Tea. They just went to the Invasion, and then they went and crashed at another house."
"God, they love to do that don't they?"
"Yeah. Apparently they were crashing at a pool in the Hamptons a few days ago. God, do those queens every actually go in any of the houses?"
"I think they just sidle up to the pool, take their shirts off, and if any queen is home they just let them stay."
"Good thing Reichen wears board shorts. If everyone saw her basket in a Speedo she'd never get another invitation."
"It's bad enough she has a small dick, but then she brought Austin."
"That cow."
"Isn't a sow like a cow?"
"Whatever. It's fat. Who cares."
"Girl! (SNAPS) "Did you hear about her photographs?"
"She did that naked photo shoot and she went to go pick up the photographs and the photographer was like, 'You fat!' and he was like, 'Whatever, give me a CD,' and the photographer was like 'Whatever, fattie, I'll email you the pictures, but they might be so fat that they'll break your computer.'"
"Well, she got all naked again when she crashed that house with Reichen and Can-I-Buy-a-Vowel Rodiney. Then Derek showed up with TJ and he was lounging on this blow-up swan..."
"Did they steal it from the Pavilion?"
"Girl, some queens stole the inflatable swans from the pool behind the Pavilion."
"I bet it was them. Those swans look expensive, and you know how cheap those queens are."
"So, what happened with the fight?"
"Austin and Derek were all yelling at each other like 'Mew mew mew mew mew,' and then Derek and TJ went back to the city because they didn't have a place to stay either."
"What happened with Austin?"
"Reichen yelled at him a bunch and then they just sat around the pool until Austin passed out in a deck chair and then he woke up at like eleven and went to Pavilion where he got even more fucked up and my friend Stephen..."
"Stephen who lives in that house with the room that's all mirrors?"
"No, Stephen who got attacked by the deer in the Meat Rack. Anyway, he found him passed out under the Dick Dock this morning."
"Damn, I'm amazed Reichen could even afford her ticket on the ferry."
"Girl, she got fired from her play! Her agent was like 'It's cause you're too expensive,' but we know it's cause she sucked and they needed to replace her."
"A mime could do a better job of singing."
"A chimp could."
"A mannequin could."
"A cardboard cutout of Julie Andrews in Victor/Victoria could!"
"Girl!" (SNAPS)
"So, now Reichen is all, 'Rodiney, you need to make some money,' and Rodiney is all, 'I'll make a naked calendar. I'll be a nightlife promoter. I'll be a houseboy in the Hamptons. I'll advertise massages on Craigslist.'"
"Damn girl, they hard up. Maybe Reichen got fired because of how he looked in drag."
"Well, you know that Derek had a drag party."
"Was this before or after she had her lips done?"
"After, cause she thought she'd look more like Marilyn Monroe if she looked like a faggy duck."
"A fuck!"
"Ha! Yes. So, all the boys came over in full drags, including Reichen. Lady, she was hideous! It was like someone took a brick, wrapped it in tin foil, painted some makeup on it, and then paraded it down the street."
"Ew, that's nastier than Ryan getting a boner when he got a colonic from a lady."
"Girl, girl, girl, girl, GIRL. What did you just say?"
"Ryan got a boner when a lady gave him a colonic."
"That right there is everything disgusting all at once. It was like looking at Reichen's career."
"Or Rodiney's job prospects."
"Or Derek's duck lips."
"Or Austin's belly."
"Girl!" (SNAPS)
"Girl!" (SNAPS)

Hunger Games hottie Liam Hemsworth did a bit of shopping at a pet supply store in Studio City today. Maybe he was picking up some supplies for girlfriend Miley Cyrus's new pup, Floyd.
For an actor who starred in the biggest movie of the year so far we really don't see too many paparazzi pictures of him. His girlfriend though, that's another matter! It seems that the paparazzi have a Miley's workout schedule committed to memory since they seem to catch her almost daily leaving class.
Did you get a chance to see The Hunger Games yet? I saw it on opening night and I loved it, but I'm looking forward to the sequel just for a chance to see a bit more of Liam on screen!

INDIAN WELLS, CALIF. - The known interview list of candidates for the vacant Blue Jays managerial job continues to grow.
Yet, none are considered leading contenders to replace John Farrell.
Jays third base coach Brian Butterfield flew from Maine to Toronto Oct. 27, was interviewed for two hours. Two days later he took a similar position with the Boston Red Sox.
Coach Luis Rivera, who had success managing double-A New Hampshire in the Jays system and managed three other seasons in the minors, flew from Puerto Rico to Toronto to be interviewed.
Both were on staff at the time of the interviews. The only other interview has been Los Angeles Dodgers third base coach Tim Wallach via phone.
Former Washington Nationals manager Jim Rigglemans name has surfaced of late. Riggleman would fit the Jays desired need for an experienced hand, managing 1,486 games for the San Diego Padres, Chicago Cubs, Seattle Mariners and the Washington Nationals.
Riggleman bolted the Nationals 75 games into the 2011 season when he was unable to reach a contract extension.
Do the Jays replace a manager who left two years into a three-year deal, with a manager who left in the middle of his contract?
Not likely.

An unknown suspect followed two 10-year-old girls in a van at 7:13 p.m. Friday in Pine Ridge Estates in Lehman Township in what police are calling an attempted kidnapping.
The girls were on their way home when a black minivan approached from behind, state police in Blooming Grove said. The victims split to head to their homes, and the van continued to follow one of the girls even as she attempted to turn to avoid it. The van fled when she began to scream.
The vehicle is described as a black Caravan-style van with passenger side damage and a broken passenger side door window covered with clear plastic, according to the mother of one of the girls. Witnesses could not describe the license plate or driver description because of the van's speed.
Contact the police with any information at 570-226-5718.

First, my budget is $300 max. My main sources are my iPad 2, iPhone 4 and laptop at work as well as a Pioneer VSX-815 at home. I listen to music such as Dream Theater, Tool, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Rush, Apocalyptica, movie soundtracks and classical as well as some dance and pop such as David Guetta and Tiesto once in a while. I enjoy every genre of music except western to be honest.
My current phones are all IEM's: Shure SCL3, UE 700, Klipsch S5i. I would like to get a good balanced sound with great soundstage as well as some bass presence as I enjoy some warmth. I have tried a few different models based on recommendations found on the forums here. The different models I can currently get fairly easily where I live in Canada which I have tried are:
- Bose AE2i
- Audio-Technica ATH-M50
- Sennheiser HD-558
- Sennheiser HD-598
What do you guys think if I want to use them every day at work as well as home?
