Definitions of MYSTERY on the Web
Something that baffles understanding and cannot be explained; "how it got out is a mystery"; "it remains one of nature's secrets".
A story about a crime (usually murder) presented as a novel or play or movie
Mystery! (also written MYSTERY!) is a long-running television series that premiered on PBS in 1979 and is produced by WGBH. The show has allowed a large number of detective series and television movies, most of them British productions from the BBC or various ITV companies, to air on American television. In 2002 they added an American produced series based on the novels of Tony Hillerman to their roster. The American flag was worked intro the opening title sequence.
Mystery is a Canadian specialty channel which presents movies and television series of the mystery genre. Mystery is owned by CanWest Global Communications.
The Orthodox term for "Sacrament", the means by which God's Grace is imparted to us by His Holy Orthodox Church. Only Orthodox Christians may receive the Holy Mysteries.
A term derived from the Latin word mysterium. Mystery is also closely related to the Latin word mysterium tremendum, which is a term used to express the overwhelming awe and sense of unknowable mystery felt by those to whom some aspect of God or of divine being is revealed. Mystery is an event or situation that appears to overwhelm understanding. Its province is the unnatural, unmentioned, and unseen. ...
A suspenseful story dealing with a puzzling crime. The crime is usually solved by one of the characters in the story, which sometimes is a detective. Mysteries are fiction.
Any matter that is hidden, secret, unexplained or inexplicable, beyond human knowledge or comprehension, such as a religious truth known only from Divine Revelation.
a narrative in which the chief element is usually a crime around which the plot is built.
A reality which we cannot fully grasp intellectually, or for which we have no reasoned explanation. Before mystery one retains a certain awe along with the yearning to explore and comprehend. For Jung, life itself and each individual was such a mystery.
Genre of film involving mystery as the main element of the film.

Is China Buying Gold to Challenge the U.S. Dollar?
"International supervision over the issue of U.S. dollars (NYSE:UUP) should be introduced and a new, stable and secured global reserve currency may also be an option to avert a catastrophe caused by any single country." -China's official news agency Xinhua
Gold (NYSE:GLD) and silver (NYSE:SLV) are often viewed by investors as a hedge against uncertainty. Although the two precious metals (NYSE:DBP) can cause heated debates about their role in an individual portfolio, many would agree even a small percentage of a portfolio should be in gold or silver. A study released earlier in the year by Oxford Economics recommends holding at least 5% of your assets in gold. What if countries apply these principles to their reserve holdings? The rising price of gold and silver has caught the attention of economic powerhouse, China (NYSE:FXI).
It is said that gold prices have not increased, fiat currencies have decreased. This is a concept not lost on the Chinese. A new Wikileaks release reveals the thought process behind gold and fiat currencies such as the U.S. Dollar and Euro. The new release says, " China increases it gold reserves in order to kill two birds with one stone. The China Radio International sponsored newspaper World News Journal (Shijie Xinwenbao)(04/28): According to China's National Foreign Exchanges Administration, China's gold reserves have recently increased. Currently, the majority of its gold reserves have been located in the U.S. and European countries. The U.S. and Europe have always suppressed the rising price of gold. They intend to weaken gold's function as an international reserve currency. They don't want to see other countries turning to gold reserves instead of the U.S. Dollar or Euro. Therefore, suppressing the price of gold is very beneficial for the U.S. in maintaing the U.S. Dollar's role as the international reserve currency. China's increased gold reserves will thus act as a model and lead other countries towards reserving more gold. Large gold reserves are also beneficial in promoting the internationalization of the RMB."
Looking at the latest world official gold holdings from the World Gold Council, China is currently ranked 6th in gold holdings with 1,054 tonnes. This represents only 1.6% of their total foreign reserves. The United States still maintains a significant lead on China in terms of gold reserves. Per the same World Gold Council report, the U.S. has 8,133 tonnes of gold, which represents 74% of total foreign reserves. Germany is the closest to the U.S. with 3,401 tonnes, representing 71.4% of total foreign reserves. China still has a large amount of gold buying (and U.S. Treasury selling) to do if they hope to challenge the world reserve status of the U.S. Dollar. However, if China continues to demand gold, current gold prices will look quite cheap further down the road. Consumers in China are demanding gold as inflation and other economic worries linger. China's share of global demand for gold has increased from just 6% in 2000 to 18% in 2010.
Investors looking to hold precious metals in their portfolio may want to consider gold plays such as AngloGold (NYSE:AU), Newmont Mining (NYSE:NEM), or Market Vectors Jr Gold Miners ETF (NYSE:GDXJ). Hot silver plays include First Majestic Silver (NYSE:AG),Endeavour Silver (AMEX:EXK), and Global X Silver Miners ETF (NYSE:SIL).

Among the contributors were John Krakauer of Johns Hopkins University, Soren Wheeler of WNYC's Radiolab, Erica Gruen of Quantum Media, Toni Sikes of CODAworx, and Ben Sawyer of DigitalMill. The day featured engaging talks, lively discussion, probing questions and insightful answers in an unconventional dynamic designed to create unique collaborations. A simple white paper could not capture the textured nuance of the day's revelations. Get caught up on the day's action through the lens of a Storify timeline, a blog post from Montessorium, and a video recap created by Christian Inouye.
Hybrid Zone X – Montessorium
The structure and layout of the conference allowed for spontaneous, productive encounters, especially between the academic and commercial side of things… What struck us most about Hybrid Zone X was the shared, collaborative nature of the event. With a wide array of backgrounds, from product leads to journalists, academics to app developers, everyone was inspired to help focus the collective experience on not just identifying a set of issues, but finding ways to address them.

Participants in the Exchange came away with new contacts and fresh ideas, ripe for innovation in the field of Game Changing Games.

Edgar Allen Poe was engaged to Sarah Elmira Royster at age 18, but her father did not approve of their relationship and broke it off before the two could be married. Elmira married another man, but once she became a widow, she and Poe became engaged once more. Unfortunately, Poe died 10 days before their wedding.Continue Reading
Much of Poe's work has been attributed to Elmira, including poems such as "Tamerlane," "Song" and "To Elmira." Even Poe's older brother, William Henry Leonard Poe, wrote a short story about the doomed nature of his brother's relationship. Despite his dying before the two could be married, Elmira remained quiet about their relationship, even refusing interviews for his biographies. It was not until much later that she agreed to speak about it, and even then, she did not reveal many details. A good deal of their relationship still remains a mystery.Learn more about US History

Vatican City (Agenzia Fides) - There are over one thousand million people with disabilities around the world, 15% of the entire population in the world. Of these, nearly 200 million suffer from very severe disabilities and, if there is no real commitment on behalf of everyone the situation will deteriorate further. Chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer and mental disorders are in fact increasing, proper health care is lacking, and the average age of the population is growing.
On the occasion of today's International Day of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which is celebrated today on December 3, the President of the Pontifical Council for Health Care Workers, His Exc. Mgr. Zygmunt Zimowski, said in his message that "the Church intends to express her closeness to those who are suffering from various forms of limitations- physical or mental. " "In the face of various diseases related to disability - the Archbishop says - it is always useful to raise awareness on the concepts of dignity, rights and well-being of our brothers and sisters, raising awareness of the benefits that may result from their integration in the various aspects of social life. The world rights, in fact, cannot be the prerogative of the few, the strong and successful."
"With new eyes, disability must therefore be taken as an expression of the uniqueness of each person," continues the President of the Pontifical Council. "It is necessary to try to promote the integral good of persons with disabilities, giving them the necessary support and the necessary protection, even if it may result in a greater financial and social burden. The Church, in particular, will be part of this important effort, with her closeness, illuminating them with the light of faith and the hope that comes from solidarity and love " concludes Mgr. Zimowski. (AP) (Agenzia Fides 03/12/2012)

So, this article from Philly.com has an unusual little passage:
When asked whether any of his phone exchanges so far with head coaches had been memorable, Slocum laughed and said, "Yeah, with the guy from Michigan [Lloyd Carr].''
How so?
"He was so excited. Just about screaming,'' Slocum said. "I couldn't hear for a couple of days. He gave me a good vibe, though.''
Update: also, this:
Fluck said the players were neither overwhelmed nor star-struck. He was floored that the young athletes did not recognize Bo Schembechler when the legendary former Michigan coach entered the room.
"They actually asked me who he was," Fluck said with a laugh. "I had to give them a whole lesson."

Big Organ Trio, Dulcineas 100th Monkey, Denver, CO – 7/3
Former Jambands.com New Groove of the Month winner, Big Organ Trio, just finished up their 2009 cross country tour on Americas birthday. Beginning in New Orleans, the tour swept up the Eastern Seaboard and curled back to culminate with a quick jaunt through the Colorado Rockies. Although they have favored the familiarity of the Western States on past excursions, the Los Angeles-based organ trio spread the good word as far a New York City before closing out the run in Denver.
How does an all instrumental power trio spread the word without singing a note?
The answer to that question lies in the surprisingly unique sound of an otherwise standard organ, bass, and drums format. The configuration is nothing new to the music world; however, Big Organ Trio recognizes this fact and dares music appreciators to ignore their distinctive, full throttle style that is prevalent throughout the live experience.
Youll find the sum of the parts are greater than the whole theory at work with this group even though each individual component more than holds its own. Bernie Bauer (bass) and Mark Banner (drums) form a vigorous rhythm section with a higher purpose than merely keeping time for Mike Mangan on Hammond B3 organ. Mangan's style is more of an attack than an approach. Hes going all out on nearly every song using a wealth of tones from his customized rig. Mangan runs his Hammond through a wah pedal and this singular piece of the puzzle does wonders for the bands overall sound. At times, the wah pedal organ tone mimics an electric guitar with powerful, psychedelic screams to illuminate a given song in a manner so striking that you are surprised you havent heard it before.
The second to the last stop of the tour featured the band playing at Dulcineas in Denver. This modest venue was treated to two sets of music, which highlighted strong original material alongside wisely chosen cover tunes. Booker Ts Hip Hug Her started things out on the right foot and put the crowd on notice: this wasnt going to be a sit down show. The band then settled in with Play It Back, a Dr. Lonnie Smith composition with a relaxed pace. Early on, Bernie stepped out of the backing role and used a Theremin-like effect to quote The Sound of Music.
Now most live music fans enjoy hearing fun covers but a band aiming to make a name for themselves cannot rely on nostalgia or borrowed success from those that came before them. With one album under their belt and another on the way later this year, Big Organ Trio has crafted a collection of robust instrumentals that can stand on their own. Following a few nods to respected elders, Holy Roller was a glimpse at the bands abilities without the cover crutch. Roller is a roller, steadily moving along a melodic line without shifting into high gear as many of the trios songs do. Go For Broke segued into Clown Boy, two more BOT inventions that showcase their knack for energetic crowd pleasers. The haunted carnival ambiance of Clown Boy was entertaining and eerie all at once.
This was the second time the band had visited Dulcineas and the same pleasantly surprised expressions stared at the stage on both occasions. Speaking of which, out of left field came Radioheads Paranoid Android. The Benevento Russo Duo perform this number also and they have a penchant for sending signals to the edge of outer space (a quality that endears them to a loyal and fervent fan base). Big Organ Trios succinct version translates well in their three man format and touches on all of the relevant sections while revealing a heavier side to the band that had been hidden up to this point of the set. The dark and brooding mood was lifted with a deftly executed Pinball Number Count that brought the listeners back to the days of watching Sesame Street. The original song was composed for an animated sequence on the television show and Mangan recalled the vocals were handled by none other than The Pointer Sisters! Part jazz, part funk, the challenging time signatures betray the just a kids song label and no one could stifle a smile once they recognized it. The first set closed with The Rosemary Stretch, an arrangement that references the sound of 70s era jazz organ groups and left the applauding audience wanting more.
After a short break the band flew right out of the gates with one of their trademarks, Down and Dirty. Without question Down and Dirty symbolizes what this band is all about and likely that phrase is used by fans when describing a BOT show. Mangan gets after it with rapid karate chops that demonstrate an intimate knowledge of the beastly Hammond. He makes it look easy to casually stab at the keys to produce the percussive bursts, which are additionally augmented by the wah pedal work. Pick any random patron at the bar to attempt the same thing and the result wouldnt sound much different from a nervous cat walking down the keyboard. And what is a concert these days without the requisite Zeppelin cover? Big Organ Trio have added Whole Lotta Love to their repertoire and they pull it off nicely. Again, were treated to a heavy, rocking song that deviates from the rest of the catalog in a good way. Robert Walter understands the virtue of adding a rock cover to an otherwise jazzy and funked out setlist and BOT have studiously continued the practice.
The second set touched on Miles Davis (Black Satin) and the Meters (Pungee) as well as more originals, all of which fell in line cohesively to provide a comprehensive performance. It speaks volumes about a band when the audience is able to feel like they are witnessing something complete and not just a smattering of music from random genres. Thus is the art of setlist composition and song selection. If an instrumental group can write a hook that youll be humming on the way home you can chalk that up as a significant accomplishment and Birkenstock Bandit has one of those refrains. As the evening drew to a close, the band tipped their hat to two more influences with Jimmy McGriffs Groove Grease and Jimi Hendrixs Manic Depression. The version of Groove Grease began with the standard arrangement yet rose to unexpected heights. Its a happy-go-lucky tune reflecting on the simplicity of old school soul; however, BOT has taken the liberty of updating it with a vicious jam section. The night ended with Manic Depression and it would have made Jimi proud. Mangan had the Leslie spinning furiously as he played this classic with liberal use of the wah pedal, much to the delight of all in attendance. Although Mark Banner hasnt been mentioned much in this review he deserves a special mention for his replication of Mitch Mitchells heavy-handed swing so crucial for any drummer taking on this song.Its worth repeating; this isnt a standard organ trio. These guys are out to prove their brand of organ, bass, and drums is compelling and deserves your attention. They are a band that has the potential to attract even those fans that do not normally prefer a set of all instrumental music. By choosing appropriate and thrilling covers while composing original material that speaks for itself, Big Organ Trio is a band of immeasurable possibilities.

Pontanima: Cambridge Concert
On Saturday 3rd March the Woolf Institute will host the Pontanima choir in their Cambridge concert.
Over the twenty years of its existence, Pontanima (spiritual bridge) Interreligious Choir has emerged as one of the most important actors in the field of inter-religious peacemaking in Bosnia-Herzegovina, linking exceptional artistry with a powerful vision of a future where religions act as points of contact and not division; where diversity is cultivated as a source of healing, hope and celebration.
The simple but revolutionary ideal lived out by the choir is that members of all cultural and religious groups can come together, despite histories of conflict, and share in one another's most beautiful traditions. For the singers and the audiences that experience its compelling witness, Pontanima heals wounds and builds relationships through life-giving music. It challenges listeners from the region and around the world to examine their own deepest sources of identity and to recognize the common ground they share with others.
Pontanima's music is a celebration of the beautiful artistic diversity that has resulted through the differing spiritual influences in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Although many are only aware of the recent wars that manipulated religious identity as a tool to fuel conflict, the region has a centuries-old tradition of religious co-existence and cooperation, as Catholics, Orthodox Christians, Muslims and Jews have contributed to the fabric of Bosnia-Herzegovina. In the face of widespread hopelessness and even shame about Bosnia-Herzegovina identity, the importance of Pontanima's work cannot be overstressed: it fosters pride in a unique Bosnian identity that is based on the richness of diversity.
Pontanima has faced many challenges. In the beginning, some of the choir members found it horrifying to sing the songs of their "enemies". Singers were criticized by friends who thought they were betraying their own people or religion. Some religious leaders continue to oppose what they see as syncretism. Nevertheless, the group has grown and flourished beyond expectation. Now it is increasingly recognized as an innovative peacemaking project, a shining ambassador of Bosnia-Herzegovina and a major contributor to the cultural life of Sarajevo and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Pontanima has performed more than 400 times throughout Bosnia-Herzegovina and while touring in Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Swiss, Italy, Austria, Germany, France, China, Hungary, United States etc. The choir is often called upon to sing at important events but also pursues its own priorities, singing for interreligious gatherings and cooperating with artists and groups that share its goals all over the region. With the frequency of performances and the diversity of its singers, Pontanima is a powerful witness and reminder of hope that springs from the core of Abrahamic spirituality.
This concert is open to all but booking is essential. To order your tickets, please see:

TRENTON – An Assembly committee released legislation today to eliminate the statute of limitations in civil sexual abuse claims.
The bill (A-3622) would remove the statue of limitations in civil actions for sexual abuse, expand the category of person who are potentially liable in these actions, and provide that public entities would be liable in these actions.
"Many young victims of sexual abuse don't report their abusers out of fear or shame; others repress the memories as a way to cope with the abuse," said Assemblywoman Annette Quijano (D-Union). "The impact of sexual abuse on children can be devastating and long-lasting. These victims should have the right to compensation for the suffering endured without a timeline looming over their heads."
"For some victims, the sexual abuse is revealed later in life. But the time that may have transpired does not change the fact that the abuse happened, nor the consequences it had on the victim," said Assemblyman Peter Barnes (D-Middlesex). "I can only imagine how difficult it must be to come to grips with the abuse and come forward. These victims deserve justice, regardless of the time lapsed."
Under current law, personal injury suits must be filed within two years of accrual of the cause of action, except for certain medical malpractice actions on behalf of minors. Under the bill, this two-year statute of limitations would be removed for the following actions:
· alleged sexual abuse of a minor;
· alleged willful, wanton or grossly negligent act of commission or omission, including sexual assault or other crime of a sexual nature, brought against a trustee, director, officer, employee, agent, servant or volunteer of a nonprofit corporation, society or association organized exclusively for religious, charitable or educational purposes;
· alleged sexual offense committed against a minor due to alleged willful, wanton, grossly negligent or negligent act of commission or omission of a sexual nature brought against any nonprofit corporation, society or association organized exclusively for religious, charitable or educational purposes.
The bill would also make public entities liable in actions for damages alleging sexual abuse, and expand the category of persons who are potentially liable in a civil action alleging the sexual abuse of a minor.
Under current law, in addition to the person who committed the sexual abuse, a parent, resource family parent such as a foster parent, guardian or other person standing in loco parentis within the household who knowingly permitted or acquiesced in the sexual abuse is also civilly liable for the abuse. However, it is an affirmative defense if that person was subjected to, or placed in, reasonable fear of physical or sexual abuse by the abuser so as to undermine the person's ability to protect the child. The bill would provide that any person who knowingly permitted or acquiesced in the sexual abuse is civilly liable as well. This person would also be entitled to the same affirmative defense.
The bill would apply to any action filed on or after the effective date, including but not limited to matters where the statute of limitations has expired and matters filed with a court that have not yet been dismissed or finally adjudicated as of the effective date.
The bill would also revive any action that was previously dismissed on grounds that the applicable statute of limitations had expired, but could not revive any action previously dismissed on any other grounds or revive any action that has been finally adjudicated.
The bill was released 4-1-1 by the Assembly Judiciary Committee.

Old Memories and New Music With Del McCoury
RR: Ronnie was able to do some parts that you used to do with Bill.
DM: Yeah, he did. He sang the lead on "I'm Blue, I'm Lonesome" with me and, also, "In Despair," and I think another one in C. Oh, and another thing when I worked for Bill, we would come on the show—and I kind of did [ Old Memories ] like a show in a way—with that little "Watermelon on the Vine," and just play a little short piece of that, and he'd either just start talkin' as soon as that stopped, or we'd kick right into another song. At the end of the show, he would say, "Well, now, we record for Decca Records and our most popular songs are on that label," and then he'd play his little mandolin thing [McCoury scats the melodic line] and sing, "Y'all Come." [Author's Note: "Watermelon on the Vine" begins Old Memories, while "Y'all Come" rests at its coda.]
RR: Great bookends to the show and the album.
DM: (laughs) Yeah. It's like bookends for the album. He always did that. But me working for him, I knew all the little ends and outs that he had and things that he did. It's funny; I gotta tell you this one, Randy. We used to play "Bean Blossom," and this lady would always be there. I don't know if it was an old acquaintance, or what it was, but she wanted to hear a song called "Linda Lou," which was about West Virginia. Well, he would do that song, but he could never remember the words, and he'd look to me for the words, and I had no idea what it was. (laughter) I think he felt obligated to sing that song to her. She was from West Virginia, you know? But, that was an example of the fact that he recorded so many songs, and he couldn't remember them all, so once in a while he would try one that he didn't remember. (laughs) He was a great guy to work for. I got along really well with him, and I should have stayed longer, but I got this guy a job, Billy Baker, a fiddle player, with Bill, and we were young, and we decided we needed to go to California. That's where we ought to be—California—(laughs) like a lot of young people do, and I only stayed exactly a year from February to February. If I had to do it over, I would have stayed longer [with Monroe], but I got married, too, in the meantime. I quit
Bill, got married, and moved to California all in one week. (laughter) Crazy stuff, man.
RR: And then Ronnie came along shortly thereafter.
DM: Yeah, and it all turned out good. I still have the same wife. It worked great.
RR: It did, didn't it? Let's talk about the movement on the record, as opposed to what you just mentioned in your personal life. There are some truck driving songs on Old Memories. You've had a bit of a connection with that lifestyle, right?
DM: Yeah, I thought about that. Before I went to work for Bill, I drove a truck. Back then, you didn't need a CDL [Commercial Driver's License], or anything to drive a truck. If you got your driver's license at the age of 16, you could jump right in the biggest rig they made and drive it right out on the highway. Bill bought a bus when I was with him, and I drove it a lot, but, yeah, that hit home with me. I remember hearing ["Lonesome Truck Driver's Blues"] so long ago. My brother had that record, and I listened to it over and over and over. I had the 78 rpms out, and that was one of them. And, you know, I don't know if I ever heard him do that on the road, either. I like it—"Lonesome Truck Driver's Blues."
RR: You did some runs, or solos, to emulate the feel on the Old Memories.
DM: Oh, yeah. I know the one you are talking about ["Used to Be"]. I had to put picks on because I'm used to using picks, but the guy who recorded it in the beginning, I don't think he used…well, he might have used picks to play a little short break on that tune "Used to Be," and I thought Ronnie did a great mandolin solo on that, too. He does his little solo, and then I come in with the guitar and I change into the next chord and take a little short break, and then the fiddles come in, and I always like that. I always liked the way Monroe did that on the sound with those fiddles. But, yeah, I had to do that. I thought, "Well, it's going to be up to me to do that little guitar break." I use a flat pick all the time, and I haven't used picks on my fingers since I quit playing banjo. That's been a long time ago, but I still know how to use them.
RR: "Train 45 (Heading South)"—Bill Monroe originally recorded that with lyrics, but the piece has mainly been played as an instrumental.
DM: You're right about that. Most people play it as an instrumental, but that song was recorded by Grayson and Whitter way back in the 20s, I think, but it was written by a guy that my dad went to school with, Steve Ledford, an old time fiddler from North Carolina. He and my dad went to school together, and they were probably kin, but I don't know. Steve Ledford and Wade Mainer and maybe it was J.E. [Mainer], the three of them wrote that song, and they got credit for it. I didn't even know that song had lyrics to that song, but I think my oldest brother did know that because Steve Ledford came to our house and stayed for a while one time when I was too young to even realize. He probably sang that song because he played on the fiddle. So, Bill, somehow he knew the words to it, but he recorded that way after I quit him, really. That was probably one of the latest songs that I recorded on [ Old Memories ]—that "Train 45" song with the words.
RR: Another song Bill covered "Alabama Waltz," was written by Hank Williams.
DM: That's correct. I have a radio show that's syndicated, and the guy that scripts the show for us is Jon Weisberger. He told me that Hank actually recorded that song. I didn't know that. He recorded it when he was still on Liberty Records in Alabama before he ever was in Shreveport, or up here in Nashville, and so I didn't know that. Hank did record it, and that's where Bill got it. Hank and Bill wrote "I'm Blue, I'm Lonesome" together, you know, and I think that Bill recorded these two songs on the same day—"I'm Blue, I'm Lonesome" and, also, "Alabama Waltz." That was at a time when he and Hank Williams were traveling together. Jimmy Martin told me that. He said that Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys and Hank Williams were actually traveling together and doing shows at about that time, which I think was about 1950. That's going back.
RR: "My Rose of Old Kentucky" is such a sweet song, isn't it?
DM: Yes, it is. I couldn't get a handle on it like I wanted to, but that's the way it is with some songs. (laughs) I always liked that song, and I have sang it before, but for some reason, when I recorded it at that time, I just couldn't get it like I wanted it. I thought, "Well, we'll just leave this off the record" because we thought it was going to be too long anyway with all these songs, and yet it wasn't. So we used it anyway. Yeah, I didn't think we'd get it on there. We put it on vinyl, too. I thought it may work on a CD, but it ain't gonna work on vinyl. But it did. It was just long enough for vinyl without going over with what I had. That was everything I recorded. When we went into the studio and recorded, I thought we'd have at least one too many, which is good. I always want at least one or two songs too many. (laughter) But it worked out. We were almost short. (laughs)
RR: What do you feel were the challenges in recording that song?
DM: I don't know. It was something about…it was just something…it could have been the way I felt that day. I think that's probably part of it. Some days, I can really nail a song, and the next day it's a lot harder for me, and I don't know. It's the notes, the way they are, and it's hard to explain—some of those songs that were higher notes than that were a lot easier. It's crazy. (laughs) Right in that mid-range, that is kind of in my mid-range before I have to break into falsetto, and that's pretty hard to keep singin', for me to keep singin' all the way through the song. But then there's days when that comes real easy, but that day, I just thought, "Man, why is this song so hard to sing?" (laughter)

From a popular Tolstoy scholar: an entertaining, thought-provoking, and accessible argument for why War and Peace is more relevant to readers now than ever.
Considered by many critics the greatest novel ever written, War and Peace is also one of the most feared. And at 1,500 pages, it's no wonder why. Still, new editions keep appearing. In July 2009 Newsweek put War and Peace at the top of its list of 100 great novels and a 2007 edition of the AARP Bulletin, read by millions, included the novel in their list of the top four books everybody should read by the age of fifty. A New York Times survey from 2009 identified War and Peace as the world classic you're most likely to find people reading on their subway commute to work. What might all those Newsweek devotees, senior citizens, and harried commuters see in a book about the Napoleonic Wars in the early 1800s? A mirror of our times.
War and Peace is many things. It is a love story, a family saga, a war novel. But at its core it's a novel about human beings attempting to create a meaningful life for themselves in a country torn apart by war, social change, political intrigue, and spiritual confusion.
Give War and Peace a Chance takes readers on a journey through War and Peace that reframes their very understanding of what it means to live through troubled times and survive them. Touching on a broad range of topics, from courage to romance, parenting to death, Kaufman demonstrates how Tolstoy's wisdom can help us live fuller, more meaningful lives. The ideal companion to War and Peace, this book will also be enjoyable to those who have never read a word of Tolstoy, making that masterpiece more approachable, relevant, and fun.

Federal officials seized nearly five pounds of opium-soaked cloth concealed in pillow cases at O'Hare International Airport.
A customs officer and his K-9 partner, Rambo, discovered the cases at an airport mail facility on Tuesday, U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokeswoman Cherise Miles said. The parcel was marked "traditional hand crafts" and destined for Minneapolis.
The opium appears to be one in a series of shipments coming from Laos and sent to points around the Midwest, a customs spokesman said.

Professional quality audio is one of the most over looked aspects of video production, and simply can make or break a video's impact and overall appearance. We take great pride in good audio and always like to scope out locations prior to shooting to check out the acoustics, prepare the proper equipment, and know what were up against. However, occasionally you just can't get good audio on site. One example of this was with some 30 second spots we produced for Batavia Downs. The noise on site was so loud that we decided to do ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement) and record all of the actor's lines in our studio. Check out the link below and see if you can notice!

It's been a short, strange, and embarrassing existence as a public company for The Blackstone Group
Nice timing
Since going public last June, shares have fallen nearly 80%, leaving its founders and top managers looking as if they cashed out ungodly amounts of wealth onto gullible public markets. Its co-founder, Steve Schwarzman, issued a mea culpa for spending $3 million on a birthday party during the peak of Wall Street's leveraged-buyout bonanza. That ill-advised celebration left him portrayed as an infamous "Wall Street fat cat" who's now blamed for helping to ravage the economy.
What goes up ...
Nothing seems to be going right these days. Blackstone issued third-quarter earnings that were about as grim as anyone expected. GAAP losses were $340 million, or $1.27 per share. Analysts were looking for a profit of $0.01 per share. Revenue came in at negative $160 million. A showing like that sure doesn't start the road to profits out on the right foot.
Shareholders' dividends -- a $0.30-per-share quarterly distribution that equates to a 16% yield at today's prices -- was kept alive this quarter, but Blackstone warned that it could be cut, possibly to zero, if market conditions don't improve. That fear alone probably accounts for the bulk of what drove shares down 12% yesterday.
What's next?
You'll remember that back in February, Blackstone announced a plan to help navigate around the credit crisis. It planned on bypassing embattled banks such as Goldman Sachs
That worked for a while, but now nearly everyone's appetite for private equity seems to be dwindling. The Wall Street Journal reports that big investors such as pension funds are opting out of private equity and in some cases are trying to unload existing investments. The fallout could be pretty frustrating, since chaos in the financial markets will keep creating bargain buying opportunities that Blackstone may not be able to exploit, simply because it might not be able to raise enough cash.
Going forward, I'd keep an eye on one thing: a suspension of the dividend. Such a development could be what justifies selling shares, even if you're sitting on a serious loss. Blackstone has hinted that its compensation structure could mean posting GAAP losses for five years. If that dividend vanishes, shareholders are well justified to ask, "What's left for me?"

95 Grand Prix 3.0L Engine Rebuild
In March of 2003, I discovered that my 1995 Grand Prix had developed a leak in the coolant system. This leak was allowing coolant to get into the oil system. We all know that when oil and water mix, that's not a good thing. This wasn't either. Especially when I discovered it about 3o'clock in the morning when I checked the oil level in preparation for topping it off if it needed it. Needless to say, I was somewhat shocked to see the oil on the dipstick looking like peanut butter.
It took me a day or two to get up with a friend of mine who has a shop. We decided that I would tow the car in and do the work myself with him watching over me. This was the most economical for me and allowed him to continue with other projects that he was working on. The repairs went pretty fast and I had the car back on the road in a week or so. This exhibit is an archive of what I found inside the topend of the engine as I disassembled it in the car.
The major clean up was done by pouring kerosene down thru the central valley and flushing it all out the oil pan. The components were cleaned in varsol and engine degreaser.
Unfortunately, I did not get any pictures of the engine compartment before getting started and I didn't get any after cleaning up everything and starting reassembly. Suffice it to say that I refaced the heads mounting surfaces, cleaned and reground the valve seats, and put it all back together with no problems. When it came time to start it after getting it all back together and ready, she started with no real problems. Hit after the first few licks and started up. It took a few minutes for everything to smooth out as the computer relearned how the engine was behaving.
Due to the way we cleaned out the gunk in the oil pan and valley, we ran new oil and filter in the car for 100 miles and then changed both. We then ran the car for another 200 miles and changed the oil and filter again. There have been no problems with this engine since this rebuild. In fact, it seems to be a tad bit beefier.

Kris Humphries Shows Off Kim Kardashian All Over His Hometown 4th Of July Weekend! Exclusive Details!
From double dates to gym sessions, HollywoodLife.com has all the exclusive details of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries' trip back to his home in Minnesota for 4th of July weekend!
On July 1, Kris Humphries tweeted: "How do I convince Kim Kardashian that Minnesota is better than L.A.?" Well, he had four days to prove it and by the looks and (tweets of it) — the basketball pro did a pretty good job. And HollywoodLife.com has all the exclusive details!
"The last time Kim visited Minnesota with Kris was in late April when she celebrated Easter with his family. It was freezing, so this time she got to experience a sunny, beautiful Minnesota," local resident Sarie,18, tells HollywoodLife.com.
In fact, Sari's best friend lives next door to Kris' parents, where she revealed he stays whenever he is in town.
"Kim and Kris stayed with his parents over the Fourth of July weekend. They live right on Lake Minnewaska. It's right next to Lake Minnetonka, where Kim and Kris celebrated The Fourth of July. Everyone goes to the Big Island, which is like a cove in the middle of Lake Minnetonka. It's like a Fourth of July tradition. People tie their boats up together and go boat hoping! It's like one big party. Then at night, they had a spectacular fireworks display."
Sunday night, Kim and Kris went had dinner at Hazellewood Grill and Tap Room in Tonka Bay.
"They came with another couple," another local resident tells HollywoodLife.com. "They were on a double date and seemed to be having a really fun time. Earlier in the day Kim and Kris went to Lifetime, which is a posh athletic center. While Kris played basketball with his buddies, Kim was upstairs on the elliptical. Last time she was at Lifetime was over Easter weekend. She taught some morning cycling classes. It was so bizarre because you would think she would want her privacy, and here she was teaching a class while Kris was playing basketball."
On Saturday night, Kris showed Kim the downtown area of Minneapolis. "They first went to Fusion for dinner and then went to Crave and Seven for drinks," our insider dished. "These are really exclusive, upscale spots. He obviously wants nothing but the best for Kim. Plus he wanted to impress her and show off his favorite places."
After dinner at Fusion, Kim and Kris headed over to Seven, which is a steak and sushi restaurant, and ultra lounge and skybar. The skybar is on the rooftop and Kris rented it out for a party. "He invited 100 guests," another source tells us. Guess he really wanted to impress Kimmy!
On Saturday night, Kris even tweeted about his night: "Had the best dinner at Fusion in uptown." Later that same night he tweeted: "Pulling up to Seven!"
During the day, Kim and Kris went to a baseball game where Kris threw the opening pitch! Kris tweeted about this too.
We love hearing about how Kim wasn't a diva and didn't feel the need to stay at some fancy hotel. She obviously feels comfortable enough to stay with Kris' family…who will soon be her in-laws!

"Will you be in heaven with me, Grandpa?"
That's what I asked my Grandpa when I was just 3 years old. The story goes that from that moment on, he never touched another drop of alcohol (he was an alcoholic) and he asked Jesus into his heart. He started going to church every Sunday. The idea of not being in heaven with his first Grandchild was his Come to Jesus Moment.
I've heard that story since I was a little girl. It's always been one of the most cherished memories.
But ever since my Grandpa passed away, I feel in some ways that my Grandma has used what was once a treasured memory against me. She asks me often why I don't go to church. "You're the reason your Grandpa came to know Jesus. And now you won't go to church!" She'll say. (Often.) I have felt so judged
On Christmas, she gave my daughter a bible. Inside was a handwritten note from her.
"I want you to read that letter in front of the family." She said. I felt angry with her. I assumed she was trying to shame me publicly in front of my family for not going to church.
I asked my sister to sneak the letter into my bedroom so I could read it privately before reading it in front of the entire family as my Grandma had requested.
As I read, I felt the anger melt away.
I may not agree with the things she says, but for the first time since my Grandpa passed away, I am at least able to understand where she is coming from.
A Christmas Letter
"Will you be in heaven with me, Grandpa?"
