The 2010 MLS All-Star First XI features those players who captured the most combined votes from media, fans, fellow players, and coaches and GMs. All-Star head coach Bruce Arena will make a further 10 selections, and league commissioner Don Garber will round out the roster with two more picks. Arena will then select his starting XI, which is slated to face Manchester United on July 28, from that full 23-man roster.
GK Donovan Ricketts, Los Angeles Galaxy: The big Jamaican leads the league's stingiest defense, having conceded just seven goals through Week 15. The 33-year-old joined LA last season following a successful stint at England's Bradford City.
DF Omar Gonzalez, Los Angeles Galaxy: The 2009 MLS Rookie of the Year has missed just one game since making his professional debut. A commanding center back, 21-year-old Gonzalez has found himself in the U.S. national team picture.
DF Jamison Olave, Real Salt Lake: Dominating in size and stature, the Colombian center back can score goals, too. The 29-year-old earned RSL's Defender of the Year honor in 2009 after helping his team to the league championship.
DF Chad Marshall, Columbus Crew: The 25-year-old is the only member of this year's MLS All-Star First XI back line to have previously earned an All-Star nod. Marshall was named the MLS Defender of the Year in the past two campaigns.
MF Dwayne De Rosario, Toronto FC: This is the Canadian international's fifth-straight All-Star selection. DeRo leads TFC in scoring through Week 15, having netted eight times as the Reds seek their first appearance in the MLS postseason.
MF Guillermo Barros Schelotto, Columbus Crew: With five goals and four assists heading into Week 16, Schelotto is on pace for another MVP season. A standout at Argentina's Boca Juniors, the 37-year-old is one of the league's most decorated players.
MF Kyle Beckerman, Real Salt Lake: The quintessential team captain, Beckerman's tough, no-nonsense commitment in the center of the park has Real Salt Lake looking like favorites to repeat their championship-winning season of 2009.
MF Javier Morales, Real Salt Lake: The 30-year-old Argentine playmaker is always a threat in the final third, and he has tallied six assists and four goals through Week 15 to prove it. This is Morales' second straight MLS All-Star selection.
MF Marco Pappa, Chicago Fire: The 22-year-old Guatemalan is enjoying a breakout season with the Fire, and is seemingly a regular nominee for Goal of the Week. His creativity has earned him a team-high six goals and four assists.
FW Edson Buddle, Los Angeles Galaxy: Buddle began 2010 on a tear, scoring seven times in his first four games. Having returned from South Africa, it looks as though he'll continue his goalscoring prowess—he now leads the league with 10 goals.
FW Landon Donovan, Los Angeles Galaxy: What more can be said about arguably the nation's all-time greatest player? It's been quite a year for Donovan, who is a headliner at LA after a successful loan stint at Everton and an unbelievable World Cup campaign.

AURORA — A bell tolled 12 times Saturday morning, once for each of the people who died one year ago in a mass shooting that rocked the nation and forever changed an entire community.
"One year ago the peace of our community was shattered," Aurora Mayor Steve Hogan said as he opened the 7/20 Day of Remembrance event just after 8:30 a.m. "One senseless act… does not define us as a community. Aurora will never forget what happened to our community. We will never stop caring for victims of that horrible evening."
Hogan and Gov. John Hickenlooper took turns reading the names of those who were killed when a gunman opened fire in a movie theater where people had gone to see a midnight showing of "The Dark Knight Rises."
Jon Blunk.
AJ Boik.
Jesse Childress.
Gordon Cowden.
Jessica Redfield Ghawi.
John Larimer.
Matt McQuinn.
Micayla Medek.
Veronica Moser-Sullivan.
Alex Sullivan.
Alex Teves.
Rebecca Wingo.
"As we remember, we go forward," Hickenlooper said.
People survived the shooting — 58 of them wounded by guns.
Dr. Comilla Sasson, who treated many of them in the University of Colorado Hospital emergency room, choked up as she recalled the heroism of police, firefighters and doctors who saved lives.
"It is absolutely a miracle that 58 people survived that night," Sasson said.
Tears streamed down the faces of event attendees as the Hinkley High School choir sang "Amazing Grace."
Sam Columna and a band named "Sleep Well," performed a song written by Columna, who lives just moments away from the theater.
After the shooting, he said, "for the first time in my life, I really understood what tragedy was."
Cream-colored roses and seedling trees were handed out to people — some who were in the Century Aurora 16 the night of the shooting — as they filtered in to the event.
As it concluded, people placed the roses near a large memorial wreath.
The city was prepared for 2,500 participants, but about 250 were on the great lawn in the moments before the brief ceremony.
Some came to prove they were unbroken by the shooting.
Jessica Almand was at the movies the night of July 20, 2012. She said the past year has been difficult for her in ways that are different than she expected. Crowds are hard for her. She's frightened by loud noises. There have been flashbacks.
"But I'm here to show everyone I'm still strong, and to remember everyone who died," she said.
Her friend Brandon Dirito said he came to the event to see and remember. "And to have the people of Aurora know that we're survivors and are still doing good, and that everybody can get past these hard times."
State Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, joined in the event "to remember the loss of innocent souls in the Aurora theater shooting."
Fields, who backed gun-control this past legislative session, said she was here "with the survivors and I'm here because I understand what it's like to lose someone due to gun violence."
Fields' son, Javad Marshall-Fields, and his fiancee Vivian Wolfe, were shot and killed in 2005 as they drove down an Aurora street. Marshall-Fields was about to testify against Robert Ray, who was eventually convicted for their murders and sentenced to death.
As the Aurora Symphony Quintet played soulful Irish folk ballad "Danny Boy" behind him, Aurora Fire Chief Mike Garcia said he hoped the remembrance event gave the city, firefighters and first-responders the chance to move forward and heal.
"This gives me a chance to reflect on a year ago, what the courageous response the Aurora fire department had, along with the police and our fire dispatch and rural metro," Garcia said. "And I think back on how courageous those that were in the theater were, who stepped up and helped people in need."
"Today is a good day to bring everything together and move forward," he said.
Others came to reclaim their hometown.
"I grew up five minutes from here," said Josh Columna. "It affected the whole community."
Following the ceremony, there were healing and community service projects planned throughout the city. Among the groups to participating in those events include Project C.U.R.E, Food Bank of the Rockies, Aurora Mental Health Center and Boys Hope Girls Hope of Colorado.

Imagine creating a plastic box that would serve a multifunctional purpose for disaster victims. Aquabox, a charitable company registered in England, provides boxes for water purification to dispatch to areas where severe disasters strike. The aftermath of a disaster can leave victims in desperate need of core necessities like food, water and shelter. One of the most urgent challenges for disaster relief agencies is getting fresh, clean drinking water to those victims. Sometimes polluted water is the only source of water. Waterborne contaminants can rapidly cause epidemics such as typhoid and cholera. Many of the outbreaks of disease and infection that result from drinking polluted water could often lead to dehydration and diarrhea, particularly striking the very young.
Aquabox is a robust plastic tank packed with water purification tablets and essential welfare items for a disaster situation. Once the welfare contents have been removed, each Aquabox can be used to purify up to 1100 liters of polluted water, making it safe and pleasant to drink. For example, 1100 liters is equal to 5,000 cups. This is enough safe drinking water for a family of four to consume 10 cups of water per day, for about four months.
This survival box is filled with welfare items such as warm clothing, kitchen utensils, hygiene items and other general hardware. The actual contents depend on the individual or organization that donated and filled the box. By the millennium, Aquabox provided more than 20,000 boxes covering over 30 countries. During the past several years, many aid agencies received and monitored boxes such as Children's Aid Direct, Feed the Children, Christian African Relief Trust, Containers of Hope and Nottingham Police Aid Convoys.
Clean drinking water can mean the difference between life and death. In the wake of mammoth disasters, natural and manmade, Aquabox is dispatched to areas in dire need of safe drinking water. Under the provisions of their charitable status, Aquabox seeks a donation in return for the box rather than making an outright sale. Aquabox can play a vital part in minimizing the after effects of a disaster.

It can be nerve wrecking having a first date with an high class escorts in London. After all you're practically strangers and would be considered lucky if you met your escorts before tonight. Expectations are high would you like her? Would she like you? What if someone makes you out? Before tonight, the plans were made, the restaurant booked, or if it a casual night out, you've made a mental note of the places you'd go. Technically, it's not a blind date, because there's no obligation, no awkward 'I'll call you' even though you both know you won't, no wondering if to hold her hand or kiss her at the end of the evening – High class London escorts are usually trouble free dates. Because there's a difference when you go out with an escort, if it doesn't go well, you can simply forget them and book another one from some of the popular online London escort agencies website http://www.londonsleadingladies.com , with no hard feelings.
As with life, especially on a first date with someone you've never met before or don't know well, there are some things you should do and others to steer clear of, here are a few.
Proper Planning
Arrive on time. If you want to leave a good first impression, being punctual is the first step. If you're late it's you lose out financially, as your tab starts running as scheduled. So save yourself some money and if you're meeting at eight, arrive with some minutes to spare. Its better if you're waiting on her than if she's waiting on you.
Ensure the dating situation with your London escort is understood and stated. If you give the impression it's a cozy date between you and your hire, don't surprise them with a double date, a group of friends or worse a family gathering. Don't bring along your wife either.
Talks to Avoid
Don't bring up the 'sex workers' talk, elite and High class London escorts hate that, e.g. 'Are you a prostitute or hooker or something?' They find this association very insulting, as London escort agencies see themselves as a higher breed than prostitutes. While some offer 'bonus services' be sure to confirm your expectations before the first date.
'How many dates have you been on?' Again this is another awkward question. Giving this information away could be super uncomfortable as it can give an indicator of how much money they made. So steer clear of these personal questions and stick to the weather or something, it's much safer.
Compliment Her Style
Dress appropriately. Don't take her out wearing a cute cocktail dress to a shoddy bar. Wherever you guys end up, make sure you compliment her dress as it can be incredibly embarrassing to be overdressed, especially when your partner is wearing a jeans and t-shirt.
Consider dating with your high class London escort as any typical date, even though she's being paid for her companionship, you can still treat her to a nice evening. With these pointers, you're sure there won't be any embarrassing misunderstandings. Even though your nerves may get the better of you, remain calm, confident and at ease, choose your conversations smartly and practice good etiquette, and who knows, maybe there'll be a second date, no charge.
Why do men look for escort services? Romance, erotic, sexual pleasures
No one loves to hate romance because of the sensational pleasure that comes with it. When it comes to London escort services, the truth is that more and more guys are interested in trying this ancient activity and forget about the romance in sex. There have been no major changes when it comes to erotic acts because the norm has always been sexual satisfaction or related things. If you Erotic romance happen to search for London escort services in UK, you will realize that a great deal of agencies are available. What remains is finding an appropriate escort that will not over charge or let you down, bring you erotic and romance together. There is no need of paying exorbitant rates for erotic acts yet you don't understand why you are looking for one. It is also worth understanding that most men don't just pay for sex but other services that can only be offered for romance and intimacy. It is ideal to have other reasons as to why real men look for these services. Take a quick overview of some of the reasons:
Time Is Limited
If you ask leading London escort service providers why most clients make impromptu requests, their answers are similar. Believe it or not, most clients don't have spare time that is enough for them to look for a partner to share romance with. For example, a man can have a wife whom she loves but because of his busy schedule, he may not have sufficient time with her or the other way around she may not have enough time to present herself in the most erotic way. The only option is to look for an escort in London who will share an amorous love with him.
You are New to a Place. Best choice call an escort for a romantic dinner and an erotic dance.
Imagine a situation whereby your new employer has taken you and others of his staff to a new town for business meetings. If it happens that you had been employed just the other day, you will not have an ample time interacting with the other employees. To add on, if you are also young and maybe single, that is the perfect time to look for an erotic escort who will guarantee you romance. For example, if you are in UK, you can look for a reliable London escort agent such as GBLondonescorts who will easily hook you up with a beautiful lady – escort. What if you have your former workmates or schoolmates? If you decide to call them, chances have it that they may be busy. That is when an erotic act with a prostitute keeps calling.
Self Esteem
If you want to show your well-being whenever you are in a social place, you need to look like others. You cannot be in an event where your fellow men are dancing erotic with their chicks while you are doing drinks alone. That can make others think weird of you. To avert such scenario, you need to gain courage and look for a temporary romance partner. Escorts of London do come in handy hence they are in the right position to save your day.
Make your day an erotic one by contacting your preferred London escort agencies available in that particular place. By doing that, you will as

ROCKFORD - News talk radio station NTA-100.5 FM became a greatest hits station today, leaving longtime newscaster Ken DeCoster and host Doug McDuff out of a job.
At the same time, WRTB-95.3 FM, which has played all kinds of music, became a country music station.
Both stations are owned by Madison-Wis.-based Mid-West Family Broadcasting, which also owns Rockford's WGFB-103.1 FM, a light rock station; WXRX-104.9 FM, rock; and WNTA-1330 AM, a Spanish-language station. Mid-West bought the stations from Maverick Media in April.
Five full-time employees were laid off and given severance packages as part of the format change, said Mike Paterson, general manager in Rockford.
DeCoster, who has 30 years of radio experience and was a news reporter and show host on NTA from 10 a.m. to noon on weekdays, had been at the station since 1995, Paterson said. McDuff, with 50 years in radio, hosted a show 6 to 10 a.m. on weekdays. He had been with the station since 1994, Paterson said.
DeCoster did not return a phone call, and McDuff could not be reached for comment.
Paterson said the talk-show format was "not financially sound." And he said country music is highly popular in Rockford and nationwide. He said Mid-West aims to "take at least 50 percent of the revenue from the other country station in five or six years." Town Square Media, formerly Cumulus Broadcasting, operates country station WXXQ-98.5 FM. The market manager for Town Square could not immediately be reached for comment.
The new country station will be known as 95.3 The Bull and will feature 20 songs in a row throughout the day. Artists such as Toby Keith, Keith Urban, Zac Brown Band and The Band Perry are among those whose music will be featured. The station had been known as BOB FM and played a random mix of music.
The greatest hits station will feature pop hits of the '60s, '70s and '80s and will be known as 100.5 River-FM. It will feature artists such as Cheap Trick, the Beatles, Elvis Presley, and John Mellencamp. Former WLS DJ Fred Winston will be the station's voice for branding and promotions.
Both stations will add on-air personalities in three months to a year, Paterson said.
Besides Rockford, Mid-West operates radio stations in markets including Madison, La Crosse and Eau Claire, all in Wisconsin, and Springfield, Ill.

Beacon Pointe Wealth Advisors has added registered investment advisor Pacific Pointe in a rollup partnership that adds $175 million in assets under management to the firm, BPWA announced Monday.
Pacific Pointe, based in Santa Barbara, is the fourth California location to be added to BPWA, a Beacon Pointe Advisors RIA based in Newport Beach, Calif. The expansion marks BPWA's second deal in five months and its fifth addition of an advisory firm to BPWA.
BPWA projects that it will reach nearly $1 billion in total AUM by year end, and it plans to continue its California expansion while adding to its geographic footprint in Denver, Boston and Richmond. It is 100% owned by each of the advisor partners that have joined RIA Beacon Pointe Advisors, which has AUM of $5.8 billion.
The advisor partners at BPWA do not hesitate to use the term "rollup," an industry term that other firms with a long-term home for advisors have shied away from using, according to Beacon Pointe Wealth Advisors President Matt Cooper, whose Alliance for RIAs (aRIA) study group was named to Investment Advisor's IA 25 list in 2013.
"The reason that makes firms cringe is because they try to position as something they're not, and when the media calls them out on it, they get upset," Cooper said in a statement. "But the bottom line is that if we know the value we provide, and our advisor partners know it, and feel good about why they joined and how it helps them and their clients, then you can call us whatever you want as long as you acknowledge the good we're doing."
RIA-to-RIA M&A on the Upswing
The deal highlights how RIA-to-RIA deals are on the upswing. BPWA is actively looking to expand with growth-focused regional partners in the $100 million to $300 million range. BPWA has set a growth goal of one deal per quarter for the next 10 years and is already ahead of the pace it has set for itself.
David DeVoe, a strategic consultant to BPWA and former Schwab Advisor Services managing director of strategic business development, points out that the new transaction is "a great example of how RIAs are intelligently using M&A" to achieve their business growth goals. "Beacon Pointe is leveraging the scale and infrastructure of its $6 billion business to provide BPWA Santa Barbara with a more concentrated focus on accelerating growth," DeVoe said in a statement.
Pacific Pointe, the newest RIA to join BPWA, was first introduced to Beacon Pointe Advisors in 2009 when it formed its own RIA. It has been reviewing the benefits of officially joining BPWA since 2011.
'A Bigger Brand, A Bigger Story'
One of the key drivers for its decision was the exceptional growth of the first firms to join BPWA. The initial partner firm has grown from $130 million in AUM to $217 million now, at nearly 30% annualized growth, while the second partner firm has experienced greater than 400% growth, to $215 million in AUM from $50 million, according to BPWA officials.
"We saw this as a marriage of resources, granting us access to a bigger brand, a bigger story and more marketing power in our own backyard," said Gary Dorfman, Pacific Pointe founding partner, in a statement, "and the transition has been seamless."

OT: My Top 10 Albums Of All Time (Rock 'n' Roll With Me) April 21, 2008Posted by Richard Foote in Music.
Thought I might post something a little different from the usual technical stuff and share my favourite Top 10 albums of all time. My rules are basically an artist can only have the one album and it can't include any compilations or greatest hits albums. Interestingly, 5 of the 10 can be considered "concept" albums of sorts, so I'm obviously a sucker for a good theme. So here goes …
10. A Rush Of Blood To The Head – Coldplay 2002
I love Coldplay and all three of their albums. They write really good songs which don't need to be over produced to bring out their magic. They're also a really good "band" with each member bringing a special ingredient to their music. This is one of those albums where once you've heard a track, you're a little torn as you want to hear the track again but you also want to hear the next track as well. Always a sign of a good album. I prefer this album of the 3 as it just seems to have a bit more range. From the frantic pace of Politik to the mellowness of Green Eyes, it just has catchy songs one after the other. Britpop gets no better than In My Place, Clocks and The Scientist. The album as a whole has a dreamy, spacey quality that just sucks you in. Highlight: Clocks
9. 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 – Midnight Oil 1983
Australia has produced some really great, gutsy bands but none better than the Oils. Although both of their followup albums, "Red Sails In The Sunset" and "Diesel and Dust" are also truly great albums, this is their masterpiece. Much of the album is political in nature, but it's performed with such passion and drive that you just want to jump up and down with them. Although more than 25 years old, many of the themes and issues are probably more relevant now than they were back then, a quality of several of the albums on my list. However, it's the actual song writing that's so impressive, with classics such as "Read About It", "Power and the Passion" and "US Forces" sounding just as fresh and vital as always. The production is also amazing adding to the atmosphere and raw power of the whole recording. Highlight: Maralinga
8. The Velvet Underground and Nico – Velvet Underground 1967
This album is really important to me. I first heard to it back at the time when Abba and disco were the "in thing". However, this really opened up my eyes (and ears) to the fact dark themes are also worth writing and singing about and that there was this whole other world of music that you couldn't readily find on the radio or on Top of the Pops. I remember thinking just how different and amazing this was and how much more real and rebellious it was than much of the punk stuff that was making its mark. It's a unique album and incredibly influential and remarkably recorded in 1967 during the so-called Summer of Love. With a backdrop of some of Andy Warhol's favourite themes; drugs, sex and death, John Cale's soundscapes, Maureen Tucker's drumming, Lou Reed's manic guitar, Sterling Morrison's throbbing bass and the unique flat tones of Lou Reed and Nico's vocals simply sound amazing. A stunning musical statement that in many ways has never quite been matched. Highlight: Heroin.
7. The War of the Worlds – Jeff Wayne 1978
When I was about 12 or 13, I was really sick with a bad infection and had to spend 10 long days in bed. My Dad popped down to the local library and got me a few books and this new Sci-Fi musical tape to cheer me up a bit. So started my love for this album. This album has everything, a great story, fantastic music, brilliant performances from a great cast and the incredible voice of Richard Burton holding it all together. The key though is the music and the huge production which sounds so BIG. Jeff Wayne combines hard rock with a musical theatre sound which transports the listener on this incredible, thrilling journey. I still love it. Uuuuuullllaaaaaaa !! Highlight: The Eve Of The War.
6. Lust For Life – Iggy Pop 1977
There is no one quite like Iggy Pop and there's nothing quite like an Iggy Pop concert. The guy has so much energy, it's simply impossible to replicate it on a record (although Raw Power comes close). I love The Stooges and I love everything he's done since but for me, Lust For Life, recorded during his Berlin period with Bowie, is where he recorded the perfect Iggy Pop album. From the driving, addictive rhythm of the opening title track made famous on the Trainspotting soundtrack, it includes such gems as Sweet Sixteen, Some Weird Sin, The Passenger and Success. Although some of the themes are a little dark (Tonight for example is world's apart from the version re-recording by Bowie years later), there is a general sense of optimism which makes this a personal favourite. The photo of Iggy on the cover is a classic. Highlight: The Passenger.
5. The Beatles (White Album) – The Beatles 1968
The Beatles are without doubt the most influential band there's ever been and their music is just as catchy, interesting, moving and relevant today as it was 40 years ago. Picking just one of their albums is no easy task but perhaps only because I get two albums worth of material, the so-called White Album is my selection. Full of truly classic material, this for me is The Beatles at their best although sadly it also represents the beginning of the end in so many ways as well. They're still experimenting and pushing the boundaries but manage to include songs such as Back In The USSR, Dear Prudence, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, Birthday, Helter Skelter, the list just goes on and on. The only downside was having to get up all the time to change the records over after each side, thank goodness for MP3 players these days. Tempted to place this at No. 9 on the list … Highlight: While My Guitar Gently Weeps
4. Amused To Death – Roger Waters 1992
I feel like I'm cheating a little as Roger Waters features heavily on another of my Top 10, but this is a solo effort and so passes. Inspired by the book "Amusing Ourselves To Death" by Neil Postman, the album is a contempt filled analysis of how TV has made society numb to the horrors the TV pictures so often portray. As a "monkey" randomly switches between different TV channels, wars become nothing more than another form of entertainment to be "enjoyed" with a bunch of friends over a few beers and popcorn. However, it's not only just the lyrics that are so powerful here, the music is just as important and captivating. Featuring the superb Jeff Beck on many of the tracks, Perfect Sense, The Bravery Of Being Out Of Range, It's A Miracle and the title track are just some examples of where the music shines just as bright. They sound incredible live in concert too BTW. Sadly, the whole concept behind the album is probably more relevant today than its ever been. I've no doubt if David Gilmour featured on this album, Amused To Death would be considered by many as a Pink Floyd masterpiece. Pink Floyd however are coming up soon enough. Highlight: Perfect Sense.
3. OK Computer – Radiohead 1997
Both "The Bends" and "Kid A" would both be worthy members of my top 10 list, but OK Computer is the Radiohead masterpiece. A collection of gems loosely based on how computers, transportation and technology generally have all contributed to make humans just that little bit less human, this album is simply one great track after another. The overall production is also so good and lush that each individual track genuinely sounds like a mini epic in it's own right (except perhaps Paranoid Android which sounds like a huge epic). Thom Yorke's singing is brilliant throughout with Exit For a Film for example sending shivers upon every listen, but the overall soundscapes produced by the other band members make this an excellent "sounding" album. Paranoid Android is undoubtedly a musical Ben-Hur but Airbag, Exit Music, Let Down, Karma Police, Climbing Up The Walls and Lucky are all grand in their own ways as well. As for the other tracks, well No Surprises there, they're bloody good as well. Even the much maligned Fitter Happier fits in perfectly within the overall mood and ambiance of the whole piece. Highlight: Paranoid Android.
Boy, I could have picked any number of Pink Floyd albums but in the end, The Wall just pips some of the others. Written primarily by Roger Waters and somewhat autobiographical, the album tells the "story" of the slow decline and disintegration of poor Pink, a rock star with too many mental scars to cope with stardom. Building "Walls" between himself and his past ultimately only makes matters worse and is perhaps the albums key message. However, as ever, it's the music that really counts and here Pink Floyd manage to (just) work together to produce a collection of classic tracks. Although Roger Waters clearly dominates, David Glimour's general contributions are vital in the context of making the whole album the musical masterpiece that it is. Another Brick In The Wall, Young Lust, Hey You, Comfortably Numb and Run Like Hell for example are all about as good as it gets. It's an album best enjoyed from start to finish with a pair of headphones, a comfortable lounge, a cold beer and 80 or so free minutes to reminisce where you were when you first heard Another Brick In The Wall. Highlight: Comfortably Numb.
1. The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars – David Bowie 1972
Of course, it had to be a David Bowie album, but picking the one was not easy. Hunky Dory almost got there but in the end, if I had to get rid of all my music and keep just the one album, this would be it. This remarkably was the very first album I ever bought and the fact it's my favourite is pretty amazing really, if only for it passing the test of time so well. Although this was the album that finally brought Bowie fame, it was as much his amazing stage act and remarkable appearance that brought him so much attention. Which in some ways distracts slightly from what is ultimately a fantastic, straight up rock 'n' roll album. Based in some future time when the Earth only has 5 years before some catastrophe destroys all life, it loosely tells the story of an alien, "Messiah" rock star who manages to give people something worth living for before the pressure of stardom and human weaknesses brings it all crashing down. Five Years is probably the best opening and Rock 'n' Roll Suicide the best ending to any album, but the collection of songs in between are just as amazing. Moonage Daydream highlights just what a great guitarist and right-hand man Mick Ronson was, Starman is a song that probably generated the best Top Of The Pops performance by any artist, whereas songs such as Hang On To Yourself, Star, Ziggy Startdust and Suffragette City are probably some of the best rock songs ever written. Surprisingly for such futurist themes, it doesn't feature any synthesisers, only standard rock instrumentation and yet it sounds so fresh as if it's still based on music that will come sometime in the future. May Ziggy play guitar for many more years to come !! Highlight: Moonage Daydream.
If you haven't listened to any of these albums before, do yourself a favour and give them a go 🙂

Great post. You've set me thinking. While I own a couple of albums on your list, none of them would overlap with my own Top 10 list.
- 3. chet - April 21, 2008
What? No Neil Diamond?
- 4. Ontario Emperor - April 21, 2008
Agree with you on "The Beatles," although I'd personally place it at number one. The double album format helped John, Paul, and George to include many different styles in their songs. In fact, the wild style swings are the best part of the album, especially when John (as songwriter) goes from "Revolution #9" to "Good Night."
And I also agree with your "little theory." One of my other favorite albums is "Total Devo," an album that even Devo fans hate.
- 5. Andy C - April 21, 2008
The Beatles were ok but God, they didn't half rip Oasis off.
- 6. joel garry - April 21, 2008
Great post!
Whenever I think of Coldplay, I can't help but think of a couple of years ago, the local radio stations were all stoked about a live version of chasing cars (or whatever the big hit was, I don't remember exactly). This lasted about a week, as it really was bad, he must have been having an off night and sounded totally strained.
Midnight Oil – agree, great band. Some book about hackers pointed out it was the favorite of some Australian hacker, and US authorities misinterpreted some things by not understanding this.
Lust for life – been used as the theme song for cars and cruises, cracks me up how they edit certain parts out.
Would have picked Heros and Meddle, but hey, viva le difference. Saw Bowie and Pink Floyd concerts around '75 (and others), yee-haw!
John Cale lives just over some hills from me. The recent Road To Escondido album with Eric Clapton refers to a local city. I used to work for an enterprise software vendor there.
I think there are many cd's that are no one's favorite! 🙂 (Try Earthbound by King Crimson some time… yeech) The thing is, no one ever talks about albums they don't like. The albums wind up in bargain bins.
War of the Worlds – I'm drawing a blank, so thanks, I'll check it out.
I think my top ten would have albums in 4 decades. I'll have to sit down and congeal the list one of these days. Like the "best guitarists," I've felt there comes a point where ordering is pointless.
- 8. SeánMacGC - April 22, 2008
Great stuff Richard, stirs more than a few dormant musical embers… but now for the happy reawakening! :o)
- 10. joel garry - April 23, 2008
Thanks Kayce, whatever it was, it went bye fast, I still can hear the strain, but the melody escapes me. Most recent stuff I hear on the radio while driving, so apologies for my confusion.
Late '70s I was into jazz/fusion, so I have very obscure albums from then that I don't listen to any more and they don't play on the radio. What I need is a vinyl to lossless format converter that I can put a whole stack of albums on and let it churn away…
- 11. vlad - April 23, 2008
Starnge I have never been impressed by Hunky Dory although i tried hard! Life on Mars is a fantastic song but overall it is not that great of an album. Agree on Ziggy, wherever you put it in your top X, this is a top of the cream album. The other Bowie album which I would consider not far from Ziggy is Diamond Dogs. All songs there are absolutely amazing and the overall atmosphere is fascinating.
- 15. joel garry - April 28, 2008

Guys, get some Tool into your lives! 🙂
And for those of you who can cope with something a little more metal… Isis are (in my opinion of course) the best thing in music at the moment.

Off-The-End Pointers And While Statements
Last week, I argued that once we have off-the-end pointers in a C-like language, off-the-beginning pointers are much less useful. This is an odd kind of argument: What is it about arrays that should make us treat the beginning of an array differently than the end when are talking about ranges of array elements?
It was not always thus. For example, two of the earliest high-level programming languages, FORTRAN and Algol, referred to an array, or to a range of indices, by their first and last elements. For example, in FORTRAN, we set the elements of an
N-element array to zero by writing
In this example, the loop body (statement 3) is executed
N times. The first time through,
K has the value 1; the last time through,
K has the value
N. In this sense, FORTRAN treats the beginning and end of the array symmetrically.
Similarly, in Algol, we would write code such as
for k := 1 step 1 until N do a[k] := 0
Again, the variable
k takes on the value 1 the first time through the loop and
N the last time through.
In FORTRAN as originally defined, the first element of an array had index 1; in Algol, the programmer had to state the lower bound explicitly. In both languages, writing a loop entailed writing the value that the control variable should have the first and last times through the loop. In contrast, when we write an analogous loop in C or C++, we typically do so as
for (k = 0; k != N; ++k) a[k] = 0;
The last time through the loop,
k has the value
N, not
N-1. Of course, we could write
for (k = 0; k <= (N-1); ++k) a[k] = 0;
but in general, we don't. Why not? I don't think the following argument is completely conclusive, but I find it persuasive.
In their original forms, neither FORTRAN nor Algol had a
while statement, whereas in C, a
for statement is nothing more than an abbreviation for a
while statement with some extra decoration. Using
while statements changes one's perspective subtly from using
for or
DO statements, because when we write a
while statement, instead of stating the last value that a variable should have within a loop, we state explicitly a condition that we expect to be false after the loop finishes. So, for example, when we write
for (k = 0; k != N; ++k) a[k] = 0;
we are really writing
k = 0; while (k != N) { a[k] = 0; ++k; }
By implication, expect
k != N to be false when the loop finishes, so that the value of
k will be equal to
N. Claiming that
k will be equal to
N in this way is a precise statement about what the loop should do. In contrast, if we write the loop as
for (k = 0; k <= (N-1); ++k) a[k] = 0;
we are being more vague about the value of
k after the loop finishes: It might be equal to
N-1, or it might be any greater value.
In contrast, when we write
for k := 1 step 1 until N do a[k] := 0
we are saying that we want
k to take on the value
N the last time through the loop, and we don't care what value
k has after the loop finishes.
This shift in emphasis carries a subtle implication: When we use a
while statement, we tend to express the end of a range not by describing its last element, but instead by describing the first value past that last element. In other words, using off-the-end pointers is a natural outgrowth of shifting from ranges defined explicitly by their first and last elements to ranges defined by
while statements. In such statements, the loop ends when the condition is false for the first time, not when it is true for the last time. As a result, there is a natural asymmetry about using
while statements that maps into an asymmetry in the values that those
while statements manipulate.
And yet, there is a natural symmetry between the beginning and the end of a sequence — a symmetry that using off-the-end pointers in this way appears to violate. Surely there should be an easy way to step backward through an array simply by swapping the beginning and end of the range of elements. Is there a way in which we can unify the symmetric nature of the beginning and end of a range with the asymmetric nature of a
while statement?


text: Friday, August 03, 2012 CMS Issues Guidance on Manual Medical Review for Therapy Services Exceeding $3,700 Yesterday, officials from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) held a call with therapy stakeholder groups to describe their plans to implement the manual medical review process for the therapy cap exceptions that exceed $3,700 effective October 1. CMS has provided a fact sheet and question-and-answer document regarding the process and will issue a transmittal in the coming days. The therapy cap is an annual per-beneficiary limitation on services that applies to all outpatient therapy settings except critical-access hospitals. Highlights regarding manual medical review include these: KX modifier requirements still remain in place for therapy services that exceed $1,880. For outpatient therapy services that exceed $3,700 an advanced approval process under which providers will be assigned to 1 of 3 distinct phases for manual medical review. CMS will notify providers by letter and contractor websites regarding which phase they are included in.* Phase I providers: Subject to manual medical review October 1-December 31.* Phase II providers: Subject to manual medical review November 1-December 31.* Phase III providers: Subject to manual medical review December 1-December 31. Criteria for medical review will be based on current medical review standards. CMS will provide guidance and additional training for providers and Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) in the coming weeks. MACs will have 10 business days to decide whether or not they will approve services that exceed $3,700. If the MAC does not respond to a provider within 10 business days, claims beyond the $3,700 threshold will be approved. Advanced approval will allow an additional 20 treatment days beyond the $3,700 amount. Advanced approval does not guarantee payment. Retrospective review may still be performed. If a provider does not request advanced approval prior to providing services over $3,700, payment for the claims will stop, and a request for medical records will be sent to the provider. The provider will be subject to prepayment review for those claims, and the time frame for review will be approximately 60 days. Beneficiaries who have received $1,700 or more of therapy services in 2012 will receive letters in September 2012 providing them information about their potential financial liability for services over the therapy cap amount. An advanced beneficiary notice to beneficiaries is not required but is recommended as a way for the provider to convey information about the patient's potential financial responsibility for services above the therapy cap amount. A special open door forum (ODF) teleconference on the manual medical review of therapy claims will be held August 7, 2 pm-3:30 pm, ET. Special open door participation instructions are below: Dial 800/603-1774, using conference ID: 16032541. Participants may submit questions prior to the ODF to firstname.lastname@example.com. A transcript and audio recording of the ODF will be posted to the special ODF website and will be accessible for downloading.

Even the most casual food shoppers have probably noticed the increased quantity and variety of organic foods available in regular grocery stores. Once the specialty of health food stores, organic foods are spreading from specialty aisles to shelves throughout the big food stores.
Maybe you're wondering what all the fuss is about. Are organic foods healthier? Are they safer? Are they worth the extra money if they cost more than conventional foods? How do they taste?
And what about those labels touting foods as "sustainable," "natural," "free-range," "grass-fed," or "fair trade"? What do they mean, and are those foods organic, too?
Read on for a crash course in organic and other environmentally friendly foods.
If a food is labeled "organic," what does that mean? To meet the organic standards set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), an organic food is one that is grown without:
Organic animal products — meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy foods — come from animals that are fed 100% organic feed products, receive no antibiotics or growth hormones, and have access to the outdoors.
If a product is labeled "organic," it means that a government-approved certifier has inspected the farm where it was produced to ensure that the farmer followed all the rules necessary to meet the USDA's organic standards. Farmers who produce organic foods use renewable resources that conserve the soil and water for future generations. And any company that handled or processed that food on its way to the grocery store must be certified organic, too.
Foods labeled "organic" can be either:
If you see "made with organic ingredients" on a label, it means the food contains at least 70% organic ingredients, but can't have the "organic" seal on its packaging.
Another term you might hear in conjunction with organic and natural foods is "sustainable." This movement encourages eating foods grown locally by sustainable agricultural methods — that is, using food-growing techniques that don't harm the environment, are seasonal, and preserve agricultural land. Sustainable practices also are humane to animals, pay growers fairly, and support local farming communities by distributing their food through farmer's markets and other venues.
Again, "sustainable" and "organic" don't always mean the same thing. An organic tomato you buy, for example, might not adhere to sustainable principles if it was grown organically but shipped across the country to your market. And some produce you find at your local stand might not have been grown organically.
There's a growing trend among health-conscious consumers to buy food that is both sustainable and organic whenever possible.
Natural foods are foods that are minimally processed and remain as close as possible to their whole, original state. Natural foods don't have to adhere to the same rigorous standards organic foods do. However, the term "natural" generally means a product has no artificial ingredients or preservatives and that meat or poultry is minimally processed and free of artificial ingredients.
Natural foods can be organic, but not all are — some natural foods, for instance, may have been produced on a farm that has not been certified organic. If you want to be sure that what you're eating is organic, look for the "organic" labeling, which means they've been certified as meeting the USDA's standards.
Keeping track of all these terms and their meanings can be confusing. To make labels more consistent and understandable, the USDA is now developing standards for labels like grass-fed, pasture-raised, and others that will be subject to USDA inspection.
Also, many individual food producers, dairies, farms, and orchards have websites you can visit to find out more about their standards. You also can find ratings and other label information from reputable consumer groups online.
The USDA does not claim that organic foods are safer or more nutritious than those produced conventionally, but organic foods can be part of a healthy diet. Whether they are much better for you than conventional food is still up for debate. One benefit of organic food is that it is pesticide free, which is definitely better for the environment. It's probably better for you as well, though many people argue that the pesticide residue on foods is too small to cause health problems.
Even with organic products, though, be sure to follow the safe handling recommendations for all foods:
It wasn't so long ago that people who wanted to buy primarily organic foods had to turn to their local food co-ops or settle for a few items in their grocery store. Co-ops and local farmstands are great sources for natural and organic foods. But anyone looking for conventionally grown foods and other items will have to make another stop.
These days, though, it's easy to find a well-rounded selection of organic products. Most groceries offer organic produce, juices, cereals, baby food, dairy products, and more. And many stores are 100% organic or natural — if you don't have one in your neighborhood, there's likely to be one a short drive away.
If you can't find a decent selection of organic foods where you shop, talk to the store manager. The more requests a store gets for natural selections, the more likely it is to stock them.
So the next time you see a tempting treat that's labeled "organic," you may want to give it a try — it might be your first step toward a style of shopping and eating that's good for you and the planet.

They keep going and going and going …and have nothing to do Energizer batteries.
Zacks.com helpfully points to four companies that have consistently paid dividends for decades, including one that's rewarded shareholders for well over a century. In the rough-and-tumble markets of late, a solid, staid (dare we say boring) company that rests on its conservative laurels might be exactly what certain clients are looking for. And dividends are a great indicator of a company's overall health.
"The thinking goes that if a company pays a dividend, that is real cash that has to be sent out to shareholders," the website notes. "A company can't fake that. Either it has the money or it doesn't. It's not that easy to pay a dividend every quarter, year after year, for decades. Things happen."
1) DuPont Co. (DD)
So when a company like chemical giant DuPont can do it every single quarter since 1904 (434 consecutive quarters), it's impressive.
And the other three? Not only are they doing it once again, they've already announced dividend increases in 2013.
2) Coca-Cola Co. (KO)
The soft drink behemoth has a good reason for its "Coke and a smile" slogan; it's paid a dividend in each of the last 51 years, according to Zacks.
"On Feb 21, the world's largest beverage maker announced it was raising its dividend 10% to 28 cents a quarter," the website reports. "The dividend is payable on April 1 to shareholders of record as of March 15. Coke has raised its dividend every year since 1963. It currently yields 2.9%. 3) Sherwin Williams Co. (SHW)
Founded just after the Civil War, it paid its first dividend to shareholders all the way back in 1885 and has continued to do so ever since.
On Feb. 13, Sherwin-Williams announced its 35th consecutive dividend increase, a streak that Zacks notes began when Jimmy Carter was president.
"It increased it 28% to 50 cents per share. It is payable on March 8 to shareholders of record as of Feb. 25. It currently yields 1.3%."
4) Archer Daniels Midland Co. (ADM)
The "supermarket to the world" was founded in its current form in 1923, and has paid a dividend every quarter since 1932. Depression, World War II? Nah, nothing will stop it, it seems, from rewarding shareholders.
"It has raised it every year over the last 25 years. On Feb. 6, ADM announced an 8.6% increase to 19 cents per share. This is a yield of 2.4%."
