Kmic Sets Rushing Record In Mount Union Win
ALLIANCE, Ohio (AP) - Nate Kmic gained 310 yards and scored three touchdowns to become college football's career rushing leader and lift Mount Union to a 45-24 win over Wheaton in the NCAA Division III semifinals on Saturday.
Kmic broke the record on a 42-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. He has 7,986 career yards, 24 more than the record set by Danny Woodhead of Chadron State in 2004-07.
"It's something special, but right now I'm more happy to be going back to the championship game," the 5-foot-9 Kmic said after his fifth consecutive game of more than 200 yards rushing helped Mount Union (14-0) advance to Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl for the 12th time.
The top-ranked Purple Raiders will be seeking their 10th national title in a rematch in Salem, Va., on Dec. 20 against No. 4 Wisconsin-Whitewater (13-1), which defeated Mary-Hardin Baylor 39-13 in Saturday's other semifinal.
The teams will meet for the fourth year in a row for the championship. A year ago, Whitewater beat Mount Union 31-21, snapping the Purple Raiders' 37-game winning streak. Mount Union defeated the Warhawks in the title game in 2005 and 2006.
"I felt I let last year's seniors down and they will be in my thoughts all week," said Kmic, who was held to 121 yards on 30 carries in the 2007 final.
He nearly tripled that against Wheaton. The Thunder (11-3) had won three straight road playoff games to reach the semifinals for the first time in six postseason trips, but lost one fumble that led to a Mount Union score, dropped a potential touchdown pass at the goal line, and couldn't contain Kmic.
"I said coming in that I didn't care if they passed for 500 yards against us, I didn't want (Kmic) running," Wheaton coach Mike Swider said. "So what did he do? He's that good."
Kmic also scored on runs of 49 and 17 yards in his 14th career game of at least 200 yards on the ground. It was his third game of 300-plus-yards rushing, all in the postseason. His 129 touchdowns and 774 career points are also more than any player at any level of college football.
"I can't say anything that matches his numbers," Mount Union coach Larry Kehres said. "I guess what's even more impressive is there's never been a better practice player than Nate. The young guys can just watch him and learn."
Quarterback Greg Micheli completed 19 of 26 passes for 225 yards for Mount Union. He had first-half scoring passes of 11 yards to Cecil Shorts and 20 yards to A.J. Claycomb.
Wheaton's Sean Norris went 16-of-34, including TD passes of 29 yards to Alex Pokorny and 41 yards to Freddy Ellis, who also dropped a potential score at the goal line in the final seconds of the first half. Kyle Bradley passed 10 yards to Pokorny with 3:44 to play.
Wheaton dropped to 9-6 in postseason play.
"We're 0-and-6 against these guys and 9-0 against everybody else," Swider said. "We could have made it a little closer, but the best team won. Larry has an incredible program."
Mount Union has outscored opponents 791-126 this season and has college football's best overall record since 1990 at 244-11-1.

A Zen master was walking the bottom of a mountain one day and found an empty well. It was a snow capped mountain, and the master took a teaspoon and walked to the top of the mountain, filled the teaspoon with snow, walked back down and put the snow in the empty well. He then turned around and went back up the mountain and filled the teaspoon again, and came back and put it in the well. He did that all day. At the end of the day there was still hardly anything in the well.
Neale Donald Walsch said,
"Every individual undertaking, every individual thought, word, or action which leads to the transformation of the Self and to the lifting of any other being, is of extraordinary importance. It is not necessary to move mountains to move mountains. It is necessary only to move pebbles. Then the mightiest obstacles shall crumble, and the way shall be made clear. "

Welcome to our NEW studio!
Don't worry, we haven't moved far: we're still based at iNDUSTRY, a workspace ran by the Shoreditch Trust, but we've got our own studio now – and as you can see we've been trying to make it as cosy and creative as we can!
Shoreditch Trust is a registered charity based in Hackney, East London, that works with residents to support them to improve their health, wellbeing, social networks and opportunities. Many of our clients are facing complex challenges when they begin their journey with us, and our extensive range of programmes provides the support they need to make positive changes in their lives.
The office overlooks the beautiful green space of Haggerston Park. The office space is an established, high quality, flexible workspace community for entrepreneurs, freelancers, small and growing businesses.
Within a short walking distance of bustling Broadway Market our office is well-situated. It is just a 10-minute walk from both Hoxton and Haggerston Overground stations, and on major bus routes to both Hackney and the City.
Josh Gutteridge, Managing Director, said "I think it's very important for our designers to be able to work in a great environment. The new studio is bright and nicely designed to create a great working atmosphere. We've got a really nice meeting room too and, of course, a great coffee machine!"
Why not drop in for a coffee and take a tour? We are always happy to discuss your projects.
We are looking forward to the next chapter in our Regency journey!

Pictured – Local councillors, Jennette Arnold AM, Cllr Webbe, Cllr Watts, and local residents
Transport for London (TfL) has been forced into a climb down on its proposal to close Caledonian Road Tube Station for 8 months, as a result of Islington Council taking legal action against TfL.
In a letter to Islington Council, TfL has stated it will "withdraw and reconsider" the proposed closure for 8 months after recognising it failed to consider the impact the closure would have on disabled people who use the station, which the Council said they were legally obliged to do.
Local Labour councillors for Holloway and Caledonian wards have welcomed the decision are were joined by local residents at the station on Tuesday to celebrate TfL's climb down.
Cllr Paul Smith, Holloway ward councillor, said: "This is a great victory as we believe TfL has never before been forced by legal action to stop a proposed temporary station closure."
Pictured: Holloway ward councillors Rakhia Ismail, Paul Smith, and Diarmaid Ward
Cllr Claudia Webbe, Executive Member for Environment and Transport, added: "We welcome TfL's climb down, which shows the council was correct in starting legal proceedings against the decision to close the station for eight months.
"I want to thank the residents that supported our campaign to make TfL think again."
A big win but not the end of the fight!
TfL has now been forced to go back to the beginning in considering its options for upgrading the tube station lifts.
Following the Council's intervention, TfL will have to consider the impacts on people with disabilities in making its decision. Importantly, TfL has agreed to take into account the views of the Council before making a final decision.
Your Labour council will continue to argue strongly that TfL should use common sense and keep the station open by repairing one lift at a time.
Let's keep up the pressure on TfL so they make the right the decision this time.
Sign the petition and encourage friends and neighbours to sign as well.

A Man Rides Through (Mordant's Need, vol. II)
A Man Rides Through by Stephen R. Donaldson
Del Rey, 1st mass-market printing, 1987
657 pages
Genre: fantasy
Warning! Spoiler Alert! This is the second of a two volume set, and in order to say anything about the plot, I will by necessity be revealing things left … unrevealed in the earlier review of The Mirror of Her Dreams.
Synopsis & Review: Following the decidedly intense cliffhanger at the end of The Mirror of Her Dreams, A Man Rides Through finds Geraden missing, Nyle possibly dead, Master Eremis vindicated before the Congery, Orison's water poisoned while the castle is besieged by the Alend army, and Terisa fast in the clutches of Castellan Lebbick, a man far more likely to rape or murder her than listen to her. No one in Orison seems to believe Terisa that Geraden did not murder (or attempt to murder) his brother Nyle, not even their own brother Artagel. No one that is, but the mad Adept Havelock and his ineffectual sidekick Master Quillon. The two engineer Terisa's escape from the dungeons with both the Castellan and the renegade Master Gilbur in hot pursuit. In order to save herself, Terisa must not only accept her power, but demonstrate it, and she does at long last, finding herself in the Care of the Domne with Geraden. Houseldon is no safe haven, however, as Eremis unleashes monstrosities of Imagery upon the town in hopes of killing Terisa and Geraden. Instad of hiding, they must escape and warn all of Mordant against him, raising support for King Joyce until the final confrontation of Imagery and Cadwal's armies. click here to continue reading about A Man Rides Through
The Mirror of Her Dreams (Mordant's Need, vol. I)
The Mirror of Her Dreams by Stephen R. Donaldson
Del Rey, 1st mass-market printing, 1987
627 pages
Genre: fantasy
Synopsis & Review: Terisa Morgan lives alone and unloved. Though financially supported by her wealthy, neglectful father, she takes a job as secretary in a small, ineffectual mission to fill the void in her life. She has no friends, and people often seem to look right through her. To assure herself that she still exits, Terisa lives surrounded by mirrors, the only thing that can persuade her of her reality. One dark, difficult night, and man comes through one of her mirrors, shattering it. He introduces himself as Geraden, an Apt, or apprentice Imager, sent by the Congery of Imagers to seek the augured champion to save Mordant in her darkest hour. Though Terisa's apartment is not where he meant to go for the champion, Geraden believes she must be important, and begs her to return with him to save Mordant. Much to her surprise, Terisa accepts, and is drawn through her mirror with him.
She finds herself in a fantastic world, one in which mirrors do not reflect the world around them, but instead are windows to other places or other worlds, and can only be used by Imagers. A rogue Imager threatens the world, and Mordant in particular, translating horrors into the land to destroy it. Mordant's King Joyse, who once saved Mordant and won its independence from the avaricious countries of Alend and Cadwal, has succumbed to senility. His closest advisor, the Adept Havelock, is a madman obsessed with hop-board (checkers). Joyse's daughters and lords of the realm are rebelling, and the Congery of Imagers cannot even agree between themselves whether the Images in their mirrors are real, or whether they only exist after translation. Individual Masters such as Eremis, Barsongae, and Quillon, all strive in different directions, but who s to say which is heading toward treachery? Add to that the threat of war from Alend and Cadwal. Into this quagmire Terisa stumbles, and for the first time in her life, not only does someone pay attention to her, but she becomes the center of attention. Every faction believes she is important, though no one—including Terisa herself-knows how. Everyone in this world is plotting, some to save Mordant and some to destroy it, but in a world where mirrors don't reflect, no one is who they seem. click here to continue reading about The Mirror of Her Dreams

In November, we made a post asking for volunteers to step forward and become Lunch Buddies for two young people in need of mentoring -- one young man at Summit Academy in Lorain, and one young woman at Crestwood Elementary.
We are happy to say that both Littles are now matched with Big Sisters, and things seem to be going great so far!
Now for a new challenge:
At our Washington afterschool program in Lorain, we have a fourth-grade boy who needs a mentor. The Washington program takes place from 2:30-4 p.m. every Monday in the music room. We do homework, read and play board games, and the boys at that program really love to build things from Legos. Then we play games such as Silent Ball or Hot Potato as a group.
At our Westway program in Elyria, we have two young men, one in first grade and one in third, who would like Big Sisters. That program is from 3:30-5 p.m. at the Westway Gardens community room on Infirmary Road (less than 5 minutes' drive from downtown Elyria). This is a fun, energetic group that loves Candyland and football.
If you would like to be a friend, role model and guide for one of these three young men, click on our Volunteer Application (http://www.bigloraincounty.org/volunteer_form) to get started now, or contact Andrea Haynes, our School Based Manager, at (440) 277-6541 or email@example.com for more information. Bigs in our School Based program must be at least 14, have transportation to their selected site, and be able to make at least a one-year commitment to the program.

This week was Luke's first day of school. It's been kind of hard to get him back into the groove of things while also trying to teach Jakey and keep the toddler from distracting us. Needless to say he did well despite a few hiccups the first day.
This year, as I stated in a previous post, he is doing HOD's Resurrection to Reformation.
This is kind of newer format to us, well really me, than last year's curriculum of Preparing Hearts For His Glory. So here is where some of the hiccups happened. I wasn't quite sure how IEW's Medieval History Based Writing Lessons were going to go. So we had to take a few minutes and figure it out.
Here's a sampling of his Medieval Writing for this week. Please excuse his handwriting, that's something we're working on. 🙂
As stated before he is doing Resurrection to Reformation, so to start the year he's learning, again, about Ancient Rome and surrounding areas. His first history project is of a Roman Arch out of clay. We cheated and used pre-made clay instead of making our own. Ain't no body got time for that.
Also, fun thing we got to do on Monday, was the solar eclipse. The kids thought it was fun. But at peak time, some clouds rolled in so we didn't get to see it. 🙁
Luke's bible study this year is all on the book of Philippians. I found this little gem and thought it was fitting, not only because Luke will be reading through this book but also it is a gentle reminder to one in our household who tends to grumble a lot. Not naming any names.
Like I said in our curriculum choices post, Luke is going to learn about William Shakespeare and his works. This week he read half of the story of The Tempest. He said it didn't seem interesting to him. We'll see if any of the stories down the road do. Hopefully…I was really excited for him to learn about Shakespeare. With this study, he has a Shakespeare notebook journal where he'll have to copy some things into it from his readings.
He was super excited about his science studies this year because…it's all about astronomy. YAY!
I found these fun notebooking pages in the Facebook HOD RTR group. This week was all about learning the planets and where they are in our solar system.
In his Independent History Studies, he listened to Diana Waring, the narrator and author of the collection of What In The World? discuss all the Roman Emperors, like Nero, Constantine and a whole bunch of others (according to Luke).
Well that's it for this week! Tatty byes!

1. Easter Parade – The Beaches
There may not be any eggs to hunt, but the annual Beaches Lions Club Easter Parade is hopping with fun. This parade brings a ton of music and Easter entertainment to Queen Street East every spring! This year the parade grand marshals will be Olympic swimming medalist (and Beach resident!) Penny Oleksiak, Paralympians Victoria Nolan and Claudia Brown. For anyone looking to set a new PB in front of the Easter Bunny, there will also be an Easter fun run taking place before the parade. This free parade is taking place Sunday, April 16th at 2pm.
2. Centre Island Easter EGGstravaganza
Hop on the ferry and make your way to Toronto's largest Easter egg hunt, EGGstravaganza. Join the Easter Bunny for a guaranteed day of fun at Centreville Amusement Park and Far Enough Farm. Get your face painted, feed farm animals and – of course – take part in the Easter egg hunt. Brightly coloured eggs will be hidden throughout Centreville and Far Enough Farm and can be redeemed for prizes. As a bonus, this event is going on all weekend – April 14th – 16th from 11am – 4pm.
3. High Park Easter Egg Hunt
This Easter egg hunt is a great option for those who don't know their Easter schedule yet. There is a hunt happening every 30 minutes, so there's bound to be a time that will work for you & the kids. The annual Easter Egg Hunt in High Park takes place on the grounds of the Colborne Lodge Museum. A children's outdoor egg hunt is scheduled every 30 minutes, beginning at 11 a.m., with the last hunt starting at 3 p.m. A host of additional activities are planned, including bunny-themed crafts, egg dyeing, face painting, and exploring Colborne Lodge.
4. Chocolate Tour
Easter is the time for eating chocolate, so what better way to celebrate than with a chocolate tour around Toronto? This walking tour includes samples and includes a crash course in chocolate history, as well as a chocolate making demonstration by an award winning chocolatier. This event takes place on Saturday April 15th. Meeting place is outside of 443 King Street West.
5. Easter Brunch
Enjoy the splendour of Casa Loma this Easter Sunday, April 16th with a family brunch! The cost of brunch includes admission to the castle, so plan on fuelling up in the morning and then taking a tour of the castle after brunch. This event is suitable for all ages, but does require a reservation if you plan on attending!
If you know of any other great events going on, we'd love to hear! Make sure to share them in the comments.
Wishing everyone a Happy Easter!

You would take your dog everywhere with you if you could, right? However, we all know that in some situations it's simply impossible and that you have to leave your dog home alone.
While this may not present a problem to many dogs, for others it can be a truly stressful situation. For those that fit into this other group, staying home alone can provoke some stress-related reactions.
Let's take a look at what dogs may experience when home alone in order to understand them and help them!
1. Lack of appetite
Some dogs may experience a total lack of appetite when they're home alone, especially if it's the first time. You come home and see the dog food untouched, naturally – you start to worry.
However, this is not uncommon when it comes to dogs that are home alone for the first time and passes as soon as you come back home.
While we're at this topic, check out some other reasons that could cause your dog not to eat at this list of 10 reasons why your dog won't eat!
2. Loneliness and separation anxiety
Your dog may have a big separation anxiety when you're leaving. Constantly thinking about where you are and why you left isn't easy for a dog that doesn't enjoy being alone. In some cases, he or she may even think that you're not coming back.
In these situations, you have to think ahead and try to reduce the tension. By taking you dog for a walk before you leave will probably tire out you dog a bit and he or she will maybe take a nap while you're gone, reducing the lonely time.
Leaving some classical music or specifically designed music will also help reduce the tension. If you want to know more about this topic, read this article on dogs and music.
Also, make sure to leave out some toys or other things your dog likes while you're away.
3. Boredom
For dogs that don't like being home alone, solitude equals boredom! Unfortunately, boredom will probably lead to undesirable behavior.
So, if they don't have anything to play with, like toys or other things, dogs will play with things you don't want them to play with.
If bored, they can start chewing on shoes and furniture; urinating all over the place or barking so loudly the entire neighborhood will know your dog is home alone.
This is why it is crucial to provide your dog with activities when you're away for a couple of hours.
4. Safety and health issues
Some dogs may take the whole being-alone-home thing so far that some health problems will occur, for example stomach ache or urinal infection (due to ''holding it'' for too long).
Others will create problems, by poisoning themselves or getting into various accidents. Accidents can't all be prevented, but you can train your dog and teach him proper behavior when you're away.
When it comes to poisoning, you can prevent this by keeping drugs and dangerous foods at places dogs don't know about.
5. Lack of attention
When you're away, dogs find themselves in a state where nothing new is happening and they're not evolving at all. They aren't learning anything new and this environment is very static for them. While you're out experiencing new things, your dog is alone at a place without action!
In order to change this, show them a lot of attention when you come home. Do something fun and your dog will soon forget about the boring, previous couple of hours.
Understanding what your dog is going through when home alone is vital if you want to make this a better experience for your pet. Step by step, this situation will become more bearable and you will both get used to it.
However, leaving your dog home alone is never easy if you know that your dog isn't the type to enjoy the solitude… So make sure to provide activities while you're gone and make up for your absence when you get home by paying a lot of attention!

Two-time Oscar-winning actress Jane Fonda's career has occasionally been overshadowed by her opinions political and otherwise, but the focus always comes back to her creative expression. She worked with her legendary father, Henry Fonda, and Katharine Hepburn in the 1981 movie On Golden Pond, which won her dad his first Academy Award. In the 1980s she found legions of new fans with her workout videos. At 77 she looks half her age and has been candid about her plastic surgeries and knee and hip replacements. Currently she is starring in the Netflix series Grace and Frankie with Lily Tomlin, about two friends whose husbands have left them to be together.
One of the best scenes in "Grace and Frankie" is when you are about to get in bed with a man for the first time since your husband of decades left, and you lift your arm up and wiggle it in the mirror. Did they ask you to do that or was it your idea?
I came up with it.
If Jane Fonda, with the perfect body and all the resources, has jiggle, what hope is there for us?
It's life! I thought it would be kind of universal, and I like sending myself up like that.
Were you always able to make fun of yourself?
Yeah, I think so. Maybe I'm fooling myself, I don't know, but I like to think so. I never thought all that much of myself so it hasn't been too difficult [laughing].
There is a lot for you to relate to in the Grace character. Did you recognize that right away?
For all kinds of complicated reasons that we won't go into now it took me — I did not get it at the very first. For that reason, I think the second season will be better for me. I resisted seeing myself in Grace for complicated reasons [laugh]. I now realize we have a lot in common.
Can you see your strengths and accomplishments more clearly now?
Yeah, I have worked hard to be able to do that. I have always been able to list my weaknesses, my foibles. Writing my memoirs was part of what helped me to be able to say these are my strengths. It took a while.
What do you get out of acting now that you didn't earlier in your career?
I think that I'm more willing to take great risks and leaps of faith, which I did in an Italian movie that has not come out yet called Youth, directed by Paolo Sorrentino. He won an Oscar two years ago for The Great Beauty. It's a very small part. I have one major scene that is about seven minutes long. It's something I probably wouldn't have been able to do earlier. I don't know, I am more able to take risks. I don't think that is evident in Grace and Frankie. It doesn't require that, but in general I would say that is true.
The show also deals with something you don't see done much, which is friendship.
Yes, I like that a lot. You know, you work so hard in a TV series. Sometimes 14 or 15 hours a day, learning a lot of lines and with different directors it's not easy, so to be working with someone who you love and trust makes it a lot, lot easier.
It's funny, you have played Lily Tomlin's character — the hippie/Zen woman — in other movies.
[Laughs] Yes. Peace, Love and Misunderstanding.
Now you are playing the opposite.
[Laughs] Yes, and I have a little of both in me, frankly.

Fast Braces™
Dentist in West Branch
Orthodontic braces can correct crooked and crowded teeth, a misaligned bite and jaw problems. They can also eliminate problems you may have with eating, speaking properly or keeping your teeth clean. Traditional braces are the most common type of braces. Over the years, they have become smaller, sleeker and more comfortable to wear.
Traditional braces consist of standard metal brackets that are adhered to your teeth and are connected by a wire. They require periodic adjusting so pressure can gradually align your teeth.
Fast Braces™ are a patented technology that straighten teeth safely in about 3-12 months. This provides an effective, affordable option for both children and adults to have straighter smiles more quickly than with traditional braces.

Anatomy of a scandal – Miguel Amorós
An account of the "Strasbourg Scandal" of 1966—widely recognized as a precursor to the greater scandal of May 1968—its background, its protagonists, the takeover of the local student union and the origins of the pamphlet, "The Poverty of Student Life…", the role played by the members of the Situationist International in the affair, particularly Debord and Mustapha Khayati, the humiliating exclusion of the "Garnaultins" in January 1967, and the SI's subsequent descent into an even more rigid and unapproachable sectarian existence until its dissolution in 1972.
Class Struggles in Algeria
Nothing is sacred, everything can be spoken - Raoul Vaneigem
Among the most influential members of Situationist International, Vaneigem is inspired by facts and debates on the agenda in order to rip apart the certainties of the right-thinking self-righteous and the claims of those who stand in judgement and censorship. A provocative pamphlet in the wake of the enlightenment and libertarian tradition.
The Situationists and May 1968 – Miguel Amorós
A brief review of the role played by the situationists, the enragés, and the Council for the Maintenance of the Occupations (CMDO—composed of "about forty people") in the movement of May 1968 in France, which the situationists claimed was an aborted "revolution", but whose "only major victory", according to Amorós, was "its survival in memory" for, "contrary to the assertions of the SI, the modernization of capitalism and the general proletarianization of the population … did not produce new, broader, and more intransigent forces of denial", as the spectacle "subjugated its antagonists by manipulating their desires and satisfying false needs", and its "mercenary thinkers finished the job".
The workers of Italy and the revolt in Reggio Calabria
The Situationist Times
The Situationist Times was an international, English-language periodical created and edited by Jacqueline de Jong, of which six issues were published between 1962 and 1967. A radical compendium using such Situationist tactics as détournement and a printed form of dérive, the journal included essays, artwork, found images, and quotations concerned with such issues as topology, politics, and spectacle culture.
An introduction to the situationists - Jan D Matthews
Notes on Society of the spectacle - Ken Knabb
Helpful notes on Guy Debord's seminal text, Society of the Spectacle, put together by translator Ken Knabb.
Preface to the fourth Italian edition of The Society of the spectacle - Guy Debord
Lefebvre on the Situationists: an interview
An at times playful conversation with Henri Lefebvre conducted by Kristin Ross. Lefebvre, then in his eighties, discussed his memories of Guy Debord and the Situationist International as well as his attempts to provoke mischievous students around Nanterre University in 1968, where the May uprisings began. Originally published in October 79 (1997).

----- Original Message ----- From: "John Eberle" <JEb45ACP@xxxxxxx>Here is my take on this : DBX Noise reduction is an encode in recording and decode in playback system designed to reduce tape noise in professional recording studios . There was an attempt by DBX to interest the record industry in a version designed to be used in the mastering of 45s and lps and the decode unit was to be incorporated into the preamp or the playback system . The company I was working for at the time , Nashville Record Productions in Music City USA was given an onsite demo of this system and it was considered by many in the industry for adoption as it was quite effective. The big drawback to the DBX record system and the reason for its' lack of acceptance was that the DBX encoded record was most unpleasant to listen to on a playback system that did not have the DBX decoder ; making compatibility in the market place a big problem
I always found that the most useful tool for listening to 78rpm phonorecords was a standard (and cheaply available these days) 10-band equalizer. Obviously, more advanced eq's (if one can afford them?!) would be of better use!
At any rate, 78rpm phonorecords of the 1889-195? era basically had a "bandwidth" (frequency response) of around 50-6000 kHz. THAT is what is on the original recording (although it MIGHT be possible to recreate "implied" notes via a computer?!).
I always set my eq to chop the upper octave (no recorded content there!) and the lower couple of octaves (three for acoustic originals!) for the same reason!
One caveat! Apparently, the bass response of early-electrical-era 78's was MUCH lower than one might expect; I have MANY pipe-organ recordings (Jesse Crawford et al) mage in that era which exhibit AMAZING low-end content...!!

With his last, gasping words, a Queens college student fingered his former roommate as the man who stabbed him and clubbed his mother with a baseball bat, said a neighbor who was the first to find the bloody scene.
"He was on the floor. He was still conscious. He was conscious enough to explain who had done it. He said, 'Manny did it,' " the man said. "Being that he was verbal, I figured he still had a chance."
But as police continued to hunt for Emmanuel Polanco, 21, his alleged victim, David Higgins, 19, died yesterday after undergoing surgery at New York Hospital of Queens a day after the assault.
Meanwhile, relatives gathered around Higgins' wounded mother, Verne Culberson, and his devastated father, Joe Higgins.
"David was the love of her life. She is completely devastated. She was just lying there like when a person is in shock and they are just blank," said the mother's cousin, Lorraine Townsend.
"We were looking forward to so much from him. He was so young. This just hurts so many people," said his grandmother, Marelyn Mossop.

This is not actually a cut and paste, but a powerpoint document turned into a jpg.
It's called Three Sisters Park, and if you click on the picture you can go to the larger version.
I was having a hard time coming up with a poem for my poetry group tonight, and then I looked at a map I had doodled on, and came up with this idea.
Not as dark as my usual stuff.

In addition, it offers excellent protection with the tropical deluges that are common in the course of the wet season.
You'll be astonished by the luxury tub room but in kakkanadnese design and style along with the marbles flooring.

A Definition Of Hypnosis
By Mark Allen
Despite it's occasional misuse and criticism, the medical community has increasingly conceded that there are real and significant benefits that can be achieved by being hypnotized.
Hypnosis and hypnotism: what exactly is it? The word itself is derived from "hypnos", a Greek word meaning sleep. The most commonly used definition is "a trance-like state of heightened suggestibility".
While the ideas and concepts behind it have been around for thousands of years, medical science has come to recognize and accept it only in the last 50 years or so.
Scientists and researchers in this field have come to recognize that this trance-like state has very special qualities. Within this state, areas of your brain that are normally unreachable become accessible. More specifically, hypnosis can provide direct access into the subconscious mind.
Hypnosis is most commonly used to treat psychological problems and disorders, as a means for controlling habits, and to improve one's attitude and mental health. Hypnosis therapy, or hypnotherapy, can be very effective.
Weight loss and over eating, smoking cessation, anger management, recovery from surgery and medical conditions, overcoming fear, even drug and alcohol abuse are being effectively addressed through these methods.
Self-hypnosis is one area that has been growing rapidly in recent years, due in large part to the Internet. There are thousands of resources available online, including guides, exercises, and audio recordings. Some websites offering specific self hypnosis audio recordings serve up thousands of downloads every day.
Hypno therapy home study course is one area experiencing rapid growth. Some people have a distrust, or feel a stigma in seeking out a hypnotist in person. For many of these people, this type of self-help is becomes much more accessible and acceptable.
Hypnosis today has become a vibrant and growing field. Whether you are looking to increase your understanding in these areas, or have just begun exploring, websites like Hypnosis-X.info offer up a wealth of information.
The author is currently researching Wine Making methods and recipes, as well as the field of Family Genealogy Searches for upcoming articles.

Many people are curious about the benefits of blog posting. This article has everything you need to know about blogs and how to maintain them.
Use good search engine optimization techniques when creating your blog. You need your blog to appear near the top of search engine listings for your topics so that Internet users can easily come across your posts. Using keywords strategically placed in your article and title will draw in more readers.
Make it simple for readers to follow your blog using their favorite social media platforms. Many social networking sites will provide credibility and recognition to your blog and expand your audience. These sites will give you many opportunities to interact with your site visitors and attract more readers.
If you want to increase traffic to your blog, it's critical that you concentrate on writing good content. Readers who enjoy your work will come back for more. Your content should be well-written, personal and authentic.
Choose unique and less-competitive keywords. Using the keywords that other sites use will get your site buried under a morass of other results. The more unique you are, the more readers will look at your blog page.
A regular schedule will help maintain your blog's integrity and reliability. Competition in blogging is fierce, and if you do not provide your readers with consistent and fresh content, some other blogger will. People won't hold it against you at certain times, such as around the holidays, but there's no getting around the fact that you need to post frequently and consistently.
Search Engine
Strive to create new and interesting posts that relate to your blog in places other than directly on your blog. This can help the search engine spiders find you easily, and it will eventually lead to higher rankings in the search engine results pages. As such, you'll see a spike in readership as your page rank grows. You will see a substantial increase in your readers when you follow this advice.
It is of the utmost importance that you make your blog fun, not only for the reader, but for yourself. Your blog can bore readers if you don't pour your passion into it. Blog about something you really love so that your passion will be evident to your readers. If you are enjoying what you are blogging about, your readers will sense it.
Use bold and italicized type for all your keywords. Doing this will allow them catch the eye of your readers, and will also help them stand out for search engine spiders. When your keywords are easy to read and they stand out, you will increase the possibility that your users will click on them. Remember that this should be your goal.
Social Media
If you want to add visitors, using social media to promote your blog is a plus. Because social media is such a popular method of communication these days, ignoring these modalities can mean losing out on lots of potential blog traffic. Announce when you post content on Facebook and Twitter to allow your readers to easily share it with their friends and followers, bringing you more traffic.
These tips should help you get past any initial qualms about blog posting. They can also help you manage your blog once it is established. Remember what you've learned here, and apply it to your new running a blog lifestyle.

Here are some brief recaps of the second half of the kids extended Christmas vacation.
- We took Mrs. Gmibp's mother, brother and sister-in-law to the airport to go back to their new homes in California and North Carolina. It was sad to see them go, but they are not that far away in the grand scheme of things.
- I ended up in an urgent care facility. I was having slight palpitations. After some tests the doctor didn't think it was that serious and gave me meds for high blood pressure and a very stern talking to.
As I am typing this someone at my wife's doctors office was just paged. "Mr.Kong" all I could think of was Donkey Kong.
- After a trip to the new and improved Crayola experience in Easton PA, we had a quick bite to eat with one of Mrs. Gmibp's bloggy friends and her family. It was nice meeting them, and all the kids really had a great time playing together. We ate at a Chick-FIL-a, and whatever you may think of their politics you can't deny that it's good chicken. I wish there was one closer. Seriously. Mrs.Gmibap really liked the cheese sauce.
- We ended up at the Staten Island children's museum twice. It's small but really nice. We found a room with a pirate ship and a swing that the kids really liked.
- And ofcourse we had a snow day as part of the polar vortex.

Labor Day weekend in our town is also our Homecoming Weekend. We had quite a few events lined up - either that we were participating in, heading up, or just wanted to watch. 374 had to work Friday and Saturday night at his full time paid job, so that was a bit of a downer but we made it through.
Friday evening another fire wife and I set up shop at the local diner to sell the station's raffle tickets.
Saturday evening, Bubby participated in the Little King and Queen pageant. I had tossed around the idea of entering him, but ultimately decided against it. Honestly, I figured he'd protest. A few nights before the pageant, a mom of one of his classmates was asking online for a boy to escort her daughter in the event. Her previous escort had to cancel and she was heart broken. I brought it up to Bubby and he agreed. I was very impressed with him. He didn't want her to be upset because she couldn't participate. He did great on stage, waved at the judges and had the crowd laughing with his answers. On the information sheet, one of the questions asked "Favorite Hobbies." His answer was "visiting with my grandpa." The host asked him what he liked to do with grandpa, to which he replied "we just talk." The grandpa he's referring to is actually MY grandpa. It warms my heart to know he has that kind of relationship with him.
My handsome guy. He needs to stop growing!
The rest of the weekend was scattered with fire station events. Sunday we took a truck to a neighboring town for their carnival parade.
374, Bubby and Sassy before leaving our station to head to the parade.
There's something about a man in a uniform...
Monday was our town's parade and Waterball at the fire station. 374 took on Waterball this year. We had six teams participating. It was a lot of fun. I ran stop watches with two other wives. I also got a sunburn from hell. Oh the things I do for the man I love. The guys really cut loose and had a good time. I know I had a good time. Any time you get to see your firefighter shirtless in his bunker pants means you are having a good time!
Before our parade with the engine 374 drove. Bubby and I rode with him. Sassy felt it more important to watch with her friend and collect candy.
Getting ready for Waterball
My man on the nozzle...
It takes talent to run a stop watch AND be the photographer! At least I think so!
Kids take a turn during a break...including Bubby
My little bobble head in his Daddy's helmet...
I hope you and yours had a great holiday! Leave me a comment and let me know what your family did this past weekend! Or if you blogged about it, leave your link and I'll stop by!

Current Object Pascal largely addresses Kernighan's critique and also includes language features such as anonymous methods, (more…)

Rent-A-Center has recently made headlines due to its unethical treatment of customers and harassing debt collection practices. In fact, it has gotten so out of hand that the complaints and harassment lawsuits have grown in numbers.
Rent-A-Center customers throughout the U.S. are now complaining that Rent-A-Center has virtually destroyed their finances after they have leased electronics, appliances and furniture from the company.
Rent-A-Center is a Texas-based publicly-traded company. The company started in 1986, offering consumers a way to purchase electronics and other household items that they would not be able to afford otherwise. The customers rent these items, making payments on a monthly, semi-monthly or even weekly basis. At any time during the lease, the customer can terminate the lease and return the household goods, or they can keep making payments until they own the items in full. The company's mission aims to help those in lower-income households by allowing them to purchase items they would not otherwise be able to afford.
Once a customer begins to fall behind on his or her payments, that is where issues arise. Just one missed payment, missed by something as small as a day, can trigger aggressive collection efforts.
One federal lawsuit, brought by a Florida resident, claimed that she was forced to hide in a closet with her two young sons while a Rent-A-Center employee pounded on her door to collect payment on her rented household items. Another lawsuit claims that a Rent-A-Center worker kicked in her front door after she fell behind on payments for her laptop computer.
Even debt collectors are complaining about the practices of Rent-A-Center. In 2014, the collection company, Acceptance Now, took on accounts from Rent-A-Center, but as soon as debt collectors began making efforts to collect on the accounts, customers continually informed the agents that their debts had already paid. The problem was Rent-A-Center's records did not reflect these payments.
Many states allow rent-to-own companies, like Rent-A-Center to file criminal charges against customers who do not pay on their rental agreements and do not return items when asked to do so. The collectors are well aware of this information, and Rent-A-Center regularly uses these threats to scare customers into making payments. It can make customers feel trapped in a no-win situation, not only fearing for their safety against aggressive collectors but fearing jail time if they are not able to make payments.
Between January 2016 and June 2017, the Federal Trade Commission received 2,779 complaints regarding both Rent-A-Center and Acceptance Now. Out of these complaints, 90 percent of them involve aggressive collection tactics, involving employees banging on customer's houses and blasting car horns outside of homes.
