Significance and Use
5.1 Ash, as determined by this test method, is the residue remaining after burning the coal and coke. Ash obtained differs in composition from the inorganic constituents present in the original coal. Incineration causes an expulsion of all water, the loss of carbon dioxide from carbonates, the conversion of iron pyrites into ferric oxide, and other chemical reactions. Ash, as determined by this test method, will differ in amount from ash produced in furnace operations and other firing systems because incineration conditions influence the chemistry and amount of the ash. References for correcting ash results determined by this test method to a mineral-matter-free basis are listed in Classification D388, Section 9.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the inorganic residue as ash in the analysis sample of coal or coke as prepared in accordance with Practice D2013 or Practice D346. The results obtained can be applied as the ash in the proximate analysis, Practice D3172, and in the ultimate analysis, Practice D3176. For the determination of the constituents in ash, reference is made to Test Methods D3682, D4326 and D6349. Test Method D6357 should be used to prepare ash to be used for trace element analysis. See Terminology D121 for definition of ash.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.

GS1 Australia and the RQA Product Risk Institute have come together to organise workshops designed to help businesses better prepare themselves for product recalls and avoid the devastating consequences of a recall crisis.
To be held in Melbourne on 19 April and Sydney on 30 May, the Effective Recall Management workshops aim to provide businesses with the practical skills, plans and processes to manage a recall situation and prevent it from escalating into a crisis.
In a half-day session, participants will learn strategies directly from the experts at GS1 Australia, a not-for-profit independent supply chain organisation, and the RQA Product Risk Institute, Asia Pacific's specialist product recall and crisis management training company.
The workshops will also demonstrate a range of tools and resources proven to help manage a recall, including GS1 Australia's new online recall communication tool, GS1 Recallnet.
Mr Marcel Sieira, General Manager – Business Development, GS1 Australia explains that product recalls are not a question of 'if' but 'when'. He warns that poorly managed incidences and recalls can quickly become a crisis, the consequences of which can be devastating to a company, potentially impacting its reputation, operations and financial performance.
According to Mr Steve Hather, Managing Director of the RQA Product Risk Institute, Australian companies simply cannot afford to miss this workshop, explaining that companies going through a recall for the first time will typically struggle with managing key stakeholders and communicating effectively.
Designed for businesses of all sizes, the Effective Recall Management workshop should be attended by anyone who has a role in managing recall situations, including quality and technical managers, corporate affairs managers, consumer contact managers and staff, risk managers, sales and key account executives as well as marketing managers and operations managers.
Mr Hather adds the workshop is helpful even for companies that have a recall process in place, with the trainers helping them identify areas for improvement.
Registrations are now open for the Effective Recall Management workshops.
- Melbourne: Thursday 19 April 2012, 9am – 1.30pm
- Sydney: Wednesday 30 May 2012, 9am – 1.30pm
- Preventative Systems: A review of quality management, traceability and risk management systems and how they prevent incidences from occurring
- Incident Identification: The processes for managing complaints and non-conformances
- Incident Assessment: Methods and tools for investigating incidents, assessing risk in its broadest sense and making decisions on appropriate actions to take
- Strategy: Developing an effective strategy for managing incidents and recalls, and meeting expectations of key stakeholders
- Communication: Establishing key messages, identifying audiences, and constructing and delivering clear, concise and timely information
- Implementation: Ensuring the company has the people, processes and systems to implement an effective recall

ST. PAUL, Minn.—U.S. Transportation Secretary will tour a light rail construction site in St. Paul where he'll make a pitch that major transportation investments will create jobs.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood will meet with workers Monday at the future site of the Central Corridor Light Rail's Union Depot Station in downtown St. Paul. He'll be touting President Obama's proposal to create jobs, which includes money for transportation infrastructure projects.
Last April, the Federal Transit Administration signed off on a $474 million funding agreement for the construction of the 11-mile Central Corridor, which will connect downtown Minneapolis and downtown St. Paul by light rail train. It's scheduled to open in 2014.

Few women would have such a positive but silent influence on Indian politics as L K Advani's wife Kamla Advani (1932-2016) had. I have many anecdotes to recount but two of them would surely portray her benign personality which is rarely exposed to people.
In the midst of wild speculation between the souring relationship between Atal Behari Vajpayee and L K Advani, Kamla Advani got a call from the Prime Minister in the morning. "Main kal aapke yahan bhojan par aa raha hun (I am coming to your place for lunch)," said Vajpayee with an air of finality. Kamla Advani rushed out to inform her husband that the PM was coming next day.
The two-and-a-half hour lunch session lavishly supplemented choicest food for Vajpayee to smoothen the relationship. In fact the personal chemistry between Vajpayee and Kamla Advani was unique and both hardly needed any intermediary to talk to each other.
I realized this when I was doing a programme for lunch with L K Advani for Business Standard. Though I planned to take him to a south Indian restaurant at Samrat Hotel, adjacent to Ashoka Hotel, in Delhi, a day before the scheduled lunch Ms Advani called and said, "Why don't you come over to my place. It will be better and rest assured it would be nice lunch". I agreed.
There something happened which I did not mention in that column but can say now. In the midst of conversation Advani while describing Vajpayee, said this about his low-profile role, "I have never been ambitious so I was always happy with what I got". I was furiously taking notes of the conversation when Ms Advani stopped me, "Ajay, don't write this please". "Why?" I and Advani queried simultaneously. Kamla Advani pointed out, "When you say you were not ambitious , it looks as though Vajpayee ji was ambitious and this will give a wrong message". Advani immediately realized the potential of wrong message and agreed.
In the course of my professional career, I have normally met many leaders in their homes. And professional ethics demand that you maintain a discreet distance. In the 1990's till turn of the millennium, Advani along with Vajpayee was the tallest leader of the BJP. Though I covered him professionally, the access to him was not always easy. And he was very controlled in his expression and well versed with nuances of the news business. Whenever I met him at his residence, Kamla Advani would come and ask, " Has he offered you tea?". At lunch time, she would invariably ask to join at the lunch table without bothering to look for Advani's consent.
I can acknowledge now about Kamla ji as she was fondly called by many journalists and junior leaders of the BJP that I felt overwhelmed with warmth and personal touch. There are many leaders--ranging from Vajpayee, Chandrashekhar, Bhairon Singh Shekhawat, Somnath Chatterjee, Nana Deshmukh and Dattopant Thengdi-- to the present Prime minister Narendra Modi, who were fans of Kamla Advani's hospitality. Advani's daughter Pratibha Advani used to call her mother "Annapurna". That was her apt description.

Quick Reference
(b Leipzig, 21 Sept. 1904; d Antibes, 7 Dec. 1989).
German-born abstract painter and printmaker who settled in Paris in 1935 and became a French citizen in 1946. During the Second World War he fought in the French Foreign Legion; he was badly wounded in 1944 and had a leg amputated without anaesthetic. Hartung was an individualist who pursued his own path, unconcerned with fashion and sustained by what he called 'stubborn staying power'. He had begun painting abstracts in 1922, when he was only 17, and he developed a sensuous, freely improvised style that anticipated post-war developments. It was only after the war that he made a reputation and was hailed as one of the pioneers of Art Informel. His fame was at its peak around 1960, in which year he was joint winner of the main painting prize at the Venice Biennale. In some of his paintings the vibrant thick black lines and blotches have a kinship with the work of Franz Kline, but Kline is more brusquely energetic and less subtle.

NEWCASTLE University has apologised to Princess Eugenie after one of its professors claimed she was only given a place there because of her royal status.
An anti-monarchist senior history lecturer reportedly claimed the young princess was initially turned down, but later offered a place after it was flagged she "had more significance" than other applicants.
But after initially declining to comment on an individual student's position, the university issued a statement "apologising unreservedly for the distress caused" to the Queen's granddaughter.
Earlier this week reports emerged saying lecturer Dr Martin Farr told a crowd of anti-monarchists: "A friend of mine who is Italian was the admissions officer for BA English literature and received one application for the undergraduate degree that was not good enough and so discarded it.
"Apparently the university was horrified that [Princess Eugenie] had been rejected before she was offered a place with us for another degree."
He further alleged the princess was "used by the university for publicity".
But today, vice-chancellor and president Chris Day told Sun Online: "We are entirely satisfied that Princess Eugenie met the high academic standards required for admission to Newcastle University and to suggest this was not the case is simply not true.
"The application was handled appropriately via UCAS as is the case with all our students.
"Every student, irrespective of his or her background, has a right to privacy.
"Dr Martin Farr and the University apologise unreservedly for the distress caused to HRH."
Princess Eugenie studied a combined BA honours degree in English literature, graduating from the course in 2012.
The entry requirements for next year's intake studying English literature are likely to be AAA-AAB for next year's intake, and for those doing a combined honours course of the type Eugenie studied they are listed as AAB.
Earlier this week, a university spokeswoman said: "The university will not comment on an individual student's position as this information is confidential.
"In general, however, if an applicant does not have the actual or predicted grades to meet the requirements for a particular programme, it is possible for them to be considered for alternative options."
A spokesman for Princess Eugenie refused to comment.
After graduating, the now 27-year-old went on to work in New York, working with online auction house Paddle8.
She then returned to the UK, working at a contemporary art gallery.
The claims come after the princess was forced to deny she was lazy after claims she took 25 days off during her first 10 weeks in a new job.

College tuition is due, and it's just not available. Bad credit hovers like a thundercloud, so what's a person to do?
Pittsfield, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/02/2013 -- Real-estate-yogi.com can help here by providing insight into how to get a bad credit home equity line of credit, such as:
- Secure Cash by Other Means
- Make a List of Questions
- Contact Several Lenders
- Understand Forms
Earn Cash Prior to Applying
Before applying for a bad credit home equity line of credit (HELOC), try to save up some part of the amount needed, as having to borrow less increases the chances of LOC approval. A person can earn money by selling unused items around the house, turning a hobby into a small business, and asking friends and family for a loan. He could also look into borrowing against his IRA at work or from his cash-valued life insurance policy.
Prepare Questions
Again, prior to researching Bad Credit Home Equity Line Of Credit Loans, make a list of questions to ask. Inquire about what the interest rate is and if it's fixed or variable. Ask what the payments will be and if there are fees or penalties involved with the HELOC. Bad credit is a bad thing, but lenders should not be allowed to beat up on those who have it, so do some checking around before choosing a lender.
Get the Home Equity Loan with Bad Credit Today! Approval is 100% Guaranteed
Meet with Various Financers
Bad credit home equity loans may be available from many lenders. To get the best interest rates and payments, shop around. Rates may vary from lender to lender, and high-risk financers may be highest. By the same token, these lenders have access to sources of funding that traditional lenders may not have, making them a better choice for one whose credit is not good. Put some time into the search for the best deal, as it can save a great deal of money in the long run.
Grasp the Meaning of Documents
Once someone has actively begun to meet with lenders about a bad credit home equity loan, he should request copies of all the documents that go into the process of applying from each financer. He should then go over them to make certain that he understands what the forms mean. He should not sign any HELOC documents until he he clear on what their relevance is to the loan.

These are our Quinoa Stuffed Peppers with Provolone from Everyday Food Light and they are defintely an interesting take on the idea of a stuffed pepper. I found the stuffing to have a strange consistency - if you can imagine quinoa and bites of provolone together, well, they don't blend very well at all. The flavour was nice, it was just a little strange.
We didn't love it, but we didn't hate it. We just won't make it again.

Tom Mellor's finish with 40 seconds gone in overtime lifted the Harrisburg Heat to a season-opening, come-from-behind 8-7 victory over Detroit in a Professional Arena Soccer League thriller Saturday night at the Melvindale (Mich.) Civic Arena.
Mitch Walters netted three goals and David Schofield checked in with two for the Heat (1-0), which trailed 7-5 entering the fourth quarter. While a Schofield score pulled Richard Chinapoo's club within one early in the fourth, the last of Walters' three scores with 51 ticks to go tied the game 7-7 and forced the game into overtime.
Schofield was on as the sixth attacker when Walters connected. Starting goalkeeper Sam Bishop returned with the game tied and finished with 22 saves.
Costea Decu totaled three goals and Victor Otieno checked in with two for Detroit (0-1), the defending Eastern Division champions. Detroit also reached the PASL championship game last season before falling to four-time PASL champ San Diego in the final.
NOTES — Mellor added two assists. … Val Teixeira and Tyler Witmer also found the back of the net for Harrisburg. … The Heat will visit Cleveland (0-1) Sunday for a 3:05 kick. … Detroit will be the opponent next Saturday night when the Heat opens the home portion of its 2013-14 PASL schedule. … Harrisburg dropped its 2012-13 season opener, falling in Dallas 6-2. … Backup keeper Justin Johnson and Kevin Wolfe did not make the trip. … Detroit claimed the 2012-13 season series 3-1.

Seizing a man's $13,000 Corvette because he bought some phony crack cocaine amounts to an excessive fine in violation of the Constitution, a Baltimore County judge has ruled.
William Garfield Witt, 30, bought a small amount of a substance that looked like the illegal drug at the Maple Crest apartments on Oct. 23, 1992. The seller turned out to be an undercover county police officer working on a "sting" operation to stop open drug dealing in the area.
Mr. Witt, who lives in Essex, had no criminal record. He received probation before judgment and a $100 fine on the misdemeanor in District Court.

About RSNA
The near cancellation of the RSNA Scientific Assembly in 1979 made many Society leaders recognize the importance of offering educational opportunities year round. The RSNA Educational Materials Library of slides and audiotapes based on selected annual meeting sessions had been growing steadily since its establishment in 1973. In 1980, the Board of Directors decided to accelerate the expansion of the Educational Materials Library by printing an annual catalog and by appointing Philadelphia radiologist William J. Tuddenham, M.D., as editor of educational materials.
Meanwhile, the field of radiology continued to expand. The June 1980 issue of Radiology featured nine papers outlining the history and current applications of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. The September issue included four articles with magnetic resonance images of animals and humans. To make radiologic information more accessible, RSNA initiated the publication of a five-year cumulative index of articles in Radiology and eight other major publications in the field and included it as part of the Radiology subscription.
By 1999, 40 major publications were indexed. Beginning with articles from 2000, the index was offered online only. Currently 42 publications are included.
Unexpected Frustrations
After the annual meeting in Atlanta, the RSNA Board of Directors was understandably anxious about the 66th Scientific Assembly to be held at the Dallas Convention Center. But Dallas was not experiencing the same crime problems that had plagued Atlanta. A meeting in Texas promised warm weather and a pleasant environment; however, that promise went unfulfilled.
A few weeks before the 1980 meeting, a hurricane disrupted the usual late-November weather patterns in the United States. Texas experienced days of torrential rains. The rains were followed by an unseasonable cold spell. Consequently, during the weekend in which the RSNA meeting began, snow fell in Dallas. Simultaneously, Midwest cities such as Chicago and Detroit basked in balmy September-like temperatures.
Further, bus drivers in Dallas chose the week of the RSNA meeting to go on strike for better working conditions. Replacement bus drivers were brought in to transport RSNA meeting attendees between their hotels and the convention center. Unfortunately, many replacement drivers were not familiar with the layout of Dallas streets and location of landmarks. More than once, a bus full of radiologists circled the city while the driver looked for the convention center. A rumor circulating among meeting attendees was that one bus full of RSNA members had been spotted in Fort Worth 30 miles away.
Another problem with Dallas was the difficulty in locating a taxi. In the evening, meeting attendees took taxis to restaurants at the fringe of the city only to find that after dinner, they couldn't find taxis to take them back to their hotels. Restaurant managers frequently telephoned for taxis, but the wait was up to an hour.
Meeting Events
The Scientific Assembly itself was notable for many reasons. The Program Committee had scheduled important sessions during the latter half of the week to balance a meeting that previously seemed to feature its most important papers and lectures during the first few days. William S. Moore, Ph.D., gave the New Horizons lecture titled "Nuclear Magnetic Resonance: Past, Present and Future." Godfrey Hounsfield, D.Sc., who had developed computed tomography nearly a decade before, received the Society's Gold Medal. In addition, for the first time, three commercially available videoangiographic systems were on display.
Meanwhile, technical exhibitors were competing aggressively on the exhibit floor for the attention of the passing radiologist. Members of the Board of Directors were distraught by the many gifts being given by exhibitors—from pencils and mugs to calendars and buttons that advertised manufacturers' products—creating an atmosphere similar to the midway of a county fair. Also, many exhibitors had hired models who wore bathing suits or evening gowns to present new radiographic equipment. RSNA soon developed codes of conduct that required the technical exhibitors to maintain a sense of decorum during the annual meeting.
After the Scientific Assembly ended, new RSNA President Milton Elkin, M.D., who had been chairman of the Board during the crisis involving the 1979 meeting in Atlanta, believed the Society's Scientific Assembly could not be held in Dallas again. When Dallas city officials learned RSNA would not return in 1984, they charged the Society with breach of contract and threatened to sue.
Unfortunately, Chicago's McCormick Place was already booked for 1984, but a new convention center was being built in Washington, D.C. RSNA leaders planned to hold the Scientific Assembly there. Meanwhile, many Society members were looking forward to the next three annual meetings back in Chicago.

IT COULD be a scene out of a fairy tale. Nestled deep in the 10,000-foot-high mountains here, millions of monarch butterflies drape the trees and carpet the forest floor.
Their fragile black-and-orange wings, recuperating after a six-week, 3,000-mile trek from Canada and the northeastern United States, are soothed by the morning light. The sun slips behind a cloud - and the butterflies flutter into flight, creating the sound of a gently falling rain.
But the monarch's winter wonderland is under siege.
Just a few hundred yards down the slope, the buzz of a chainsaw cuts through the crisp mountain air. Flat-bed trucks laden with pine logs rumble continuously down the rugged roads. And near the sanctuary entrance, a mule train guided by a band of illegal wood smugglers slips into the forest.
Widespread deforestation is the monarch's single biggest threat. Fueled by poverty, overpopulation, and reckless logging companies, it is already harming the delicate ecological balance in the five small reserves here, the species' only known winter habitat.
``If people continue cutting down trees at the same rate, the monarchs might last only another 10 years here,'' says Jorge Mart'inez, a field biologist for the Secretariat of Urban Development and Ecology (SEDUE). ``The monarchs can't adjust [to a changing environment] that quickly.''
Scientists still puzzle over how the 120 million featherweight migrants know to return thousands of miles to the same ``oyamel'' trees year after year - especially since the butterflies here are five generations removed from those that left last year.
But one thing is clear: The highland fir forests provide just the right mix of heat and humidity to let the monarchs hibernate without freezing.
Protected from extreme temperatures by the forest canopy, the inert insects spend most of their time hanging from the trees in enormous clusters of up to 500,000 butterflies. During the warmest hours of the day, they float downhill in search of water and floral nectar, with which they store up body fats for the spring trip north.
But indiscriminate logging - sometimes even clandestine cutting within the preserve itself - is making the habitat more vulnerable, according to several scientists and zoologists studying the monarchs.
The gaps in forest cover, they say, expose the monarchs to slightly colder nights and warmer days. And with less trees to retain the sporadic rainfall, the damp forest is gradually becoming more arid.
``The water level in the streams has gone down considerably,'' says Maria Elena Castro, director of the nonprofit Monarca Association, which is devoted to protecting the butterflies. ``In some parts of the reserves, there is no water to drink - and that's the thing they need most.''
Mrs. Castro says that loggers and locals have become more sensitive to the need to protect the butterflies' habitat. But the fight to stop deforestation has more to do with economics than ecology.
It's not just that pulp mills pay an average of $500 for a truckload of precious pine logs, or about $150 per tree. It's not just that the forests seem so plentiful that logging companies are reluctant to pay for proper reforesting. But for thousands of peasants who live near the preserves, including nearly 3,000 here in El Rosario, there is no other source of income - or fuel.
Their rocky, hillside plots don't yield enough corn and beans to feed their own families. The local mining industry has laid off workers. And the big commercial flower company in town has been on a rapid decline.
``It's obvious that there's a connection between poverty and deforestation,'' says Roberto Hern'andez, who helps run the monarch preserves for SEDUE. ``Our job is not to restrict the people's only source of income but to offer some kind of alternative.''
For the peasants of El Rosario, that alternative has been tourism.
Twenty local residents now work in the preserve as game wardens and guides. Two-dozen food stalls are being constructed to accommodate hungry tourists. But the main income comes from the proceeds of the park: Last year, when the number of tourists doubled to 50,000, the community picked up $16,000.
``The people now don't see the butterflies as their enemy,'' says Jaime Montes de Oca, subdirector of national parks for SEDUE, noting that 7,000 new seedlings were planted in the preserve earlier this year. ``They understand that protecting the monarch's forest benefits them.''
But even in El Rosario, the only community that has thus far benefited from the monarchs, the protection is far from foolproof.
One recent afternoon, a rifle blasted from a restricted area. Nearby, a dying campfire spewed a column of smoke. And further down the hill, not far from a spot where monarchs covered the ground, three untethered cows grazed on the underbrush.
In yesterday's Monitor, a drawing next to an article on Monarch butterfly migration is actually a Tiger Swallow Tail butterfly, which does not migrate.

To start this article off, it is important to state I will be giving a summary over an event which happened across 3 days so do bear with me if it does not depict or evoke the emotional response you felt on the different days. If you have no idea what I am referring to, oh do I have a story to tell you. Okay let me give early context, a few months ago Superbalist announced there were going to have a festival in Johannesburg, yes an entire festival in Johannesburg. Honestly I was curious as to how it was going to happen especially considering the fact that Jo'burg was not known for housing large festivals like Rocking the Daises or OppiKoppi. Would Jo'burg people be keen for something like that anyway? Is an important question. The initial answer was no but when it was announced, it would be a 3 day event at different venues; The And club, Braam Beach Party (both in Newtown) and the main event that had headline acts Mac Miller and Foster the people in Emmarentia Dam. People seemed interested and so was I. Let me try taking you through a journey of a carefree black boy doing his first "Festival."
And club, known being for white people because of the music they played (Deep techno or something like that). My friends and I tried to have a positive attitude purely because we paid for this festival and had no choice but to enjoy. In the Uber going there, music was playing on the radio and my one friend Thabani said "This is the last time we will hear this kind of music, enjoy it while you can." Entering the club we were met by a plethora of white people, it felt like being in Cape Town and with each stare you get the feeling of not being wanted envelopes you. To be honest I would not have been surprised if we were with people who voted "Yes" for Wits to open. Assessing the place moving around, we always smiled when we saw our fellow black person. Issue with that was 90% of them had relaxed their hair so they basically weren't one of us. There were two dance floors, one of them played Deep techno which seemed to get people dancing granted it was one directional movement but the music seemed to be felt by the audience, it was strange to see honestly. It was as if the crowed was drugged (take it as you want) or in a trance. The music itself had no vibe or rhythm to it even if you have a little groove in your boots you wouldn't groove. I can admit that it was a little pleasing and funny at the same time seeing people try dance to it (NO NAMES WILL BE MENTIONED). Overall analysis; if the clubs has the name & (AND) maybe you aren't the "target market."
Next day was the UntilUntil event and man did I wish it continued, until… The rain did not almost ruin everything. Okay, I may have skipped a considerable amount of information didn't I? Apologies, I go by the name of Thube and this is my journey of another day being at a festival as a carefree black boy. The day started out with everyone being excited for the Braam Beach Party that was set up in such a way that it would actually feel like you're at the beach, dude I kid you not dude. Everyone comes in their shorts and beach attire (but not really everyone because it is still Jo'burg, I can and will dress how I want). Fine, the vibes immediately upon arrival were strong, my friends and I fit in a lot better because we see a lot more welcoming and familiar faces. In other words: there were more black people.
Everything was going well, there was actual beach sand so there was an authentic feel. The acts which came on were nothing short of amazing. The DJ's took a different approach with their sets from DJ Capital playing with a drummer, Atjazz brought out a guitarist who hit those riffs perfectly when 'moments' came on, during the set it started to drizzle making it feel like everything happens for a reason. After the set it rain and poured, people tried to resist it at first but when you are dressed as if you should be in the beach but with no ocean in sight and you are wet. It isn't really desirable to be within rain at all. Leading people to run and look for any bit of shelter be it a tent of sorts, someone's partner, your partner, you know whatever works. The rain calms down and the music is keeping people warm and things seem fine, until it rains again and now you have zero fucks to give because MAYO by DJ Speedsta plays in the background making it feel that everything will be alright. Partying in the rain feeling like it is an early 2000 R&B classic music video. Performances come on and King Kotini (Ricky Rick) gives a performance with so much passion you want to applaud at the end and give him a standing ovation and encore for the culture. AKA is the headline that does not perform like he used to. There was a point in time when there was far too much auto-tune and less rapping in his performances, at this point you are too cold to stay, decide to request an Uber and call it a goodnight.
It is the main event. It is the day everyone was waiting for, the day of Mac Miller and Foster the People. The journey continues and it is still brought to you by a carefree black boy who loves his mom. Event starts at 10am (Lol I know right?) so my friends and I are lax about it and take our time, considering the night before you decide to have an outfit which can work if it is hot or a bit nippy either way you are safe. Friends assemble and we request the Uber. The vibes are strong en route, there are discussions on what Mac will perform. We each say which songs we would like to hear (I wanted, I'm Not Real). Arrive at the venue and it is too hot and it hits me that I wore too much clothes anyway. Time for refreshments and there are so many white people again, (what is happening??). Then it hits you that the entire roster of performers is white, you keep it moving and find a decent spot upfront to be in good view of Mac. There is a weird artist by the name of BeardyMan performing and everyone is confused but you enjoy because you paid for this. With each song you are getting more impatient waiting for Mac, the sun is beaming and it was as if the DA told the sun to be perfect on the day as there would be more white people than blacks. You don't let it get to you because… it's Mac bro. There is the set up and it is finally happening you are going to see the artist who gave you Blue slide-park and is your generations Eminem, I mean that in a sense of white people are happy to have another dope rapper they can relate to before I am scolded.
Cinderella drops and the crowd is singing line for line, louder and louder waiting for Mac to appear. Mac comes out in a hoodie and Shorts, sees the crowd and is stunned takes it all in and gives us an amazing performance. Everyone and I mean everyone lost their shit when ROME came on, the performance had his classics and best songs from the new album. He gets off the stage, people call for an encore, calling to no avail. Yes we saw Mac but we did not get him for the duration we wanted, call it selfish but I call it being a fan. Mans did not even perform past an hour, reason was firstly the event ended at 6pm, secondly Foster the people were coming on. If you played FIFA growing up you will have heard a few of their songs.
It took them about 30-45 minutes to set up, in between people were losing their minds from the Mac Miller performance, my friends wanted to leave which they couldn't because I have seen enough movies where black people get left alone with white people… they do drugs (You thought worse things didn't you? shame just shame on you). Foster the people come out dressed in all white looking like they were about to kill someone, hate to be cliché but their performance was killed. The instruments made their songs come to life or LIVE seeing them LIVE was a threat. We were spoiled with exclusive songs, and then we were sent off with their classic Pumped up Kicks. It was time to go home and take in the entire weekend in. The important lesson of the weekend was never wait too long to leave because when you are around white people get ready for a X3.6 Uber surge. This is a journey brought to you by a carefree black boy.

A ureteroscopy is the insertion of a flexible scope into the bladder and ureter to treat and diagnose issues in the urinary tract, states the National Kidney Foundation. Ureteroscopy is often used for small ureteral stones close to the bladder.
Ureteroscopy is the preferred choice for patients who have a blood-clotting condition or who are morbidly obese or pregnant, claims the National Kidney Foundation. Ureteroscopy is often coupled with shock waves, electrical energy or a laser if a stone is attached too tightly on the ureter or if it is too large. At times, a stent is placed into the ureter for two to three weeks to widen the ureter for the procedure. A basket is also sometimes used during ureteroscopy to assist in the treatment.
A basket or forceps takes hold of the uterer stone after the scope is inserted into the urethra, explains WebMD. Large stones may be broken up before removal, and small stones are typically removed in one piece. A patient may feel a burning sensation during urination for a day after the procedure, and blood in the urine may appear for up to three days after a ureteroscopy. While a ureteroscopy is often successful, complications of this procedure include bleeding, ureter injury, urinary tract infection and abdominal pain. A ureteroscopy may not be recommended for individuals who have an enlarged prostate, have had pelvis or abdomen surgery or a ureter injury.

So I guess a couple things have happened around here since I posted last? Maybe? Considering it's not Halloween anymore?
Let's see – Will turned 1 (we just had a couple from church over for beef stew and chocolate chip muffins, but he did get a Princess Cake at Thanksgiving from Carl's grandmother).
He learned to walk right around 13 months, after standing and taking a few steps at a time for awhile.
(We weren't even going to do Santa, but then we were there, and uh, you can see it didn't go so hot).
He became a pickier eater, but stayed a good sleeper. He drinks milk out of a cup with a straw, and no bottles. He has 7 (!) teeth – the top 4 all came in at the same time, which was kind of rough.
He got his first haircut (don't worry, it's almost all grown back now).
He mimics "dada" and talks to himself with vigor, but we still can't really understand what he's saying.
He traveled to Pennsylvania and Texas for Christmas to visit grandparents and great-grandparents. He did great on the planes (but wore out his parents) but wasn't fond of sleeping in a new place in a new bed every night and every naptime. He went to the beach, and was shy around people he didn't know well yet. But he did have fun when there was finally another kid to play with. He was happy to come home.
He loves to cuddle with Mama, and climb over Mama and Dada. He likes toys that play music, and dancing. He likes to put objects in containers, take them out again, and figure out the lid. He likes opening and closing doors.You'll know that he's excited to eat something because his eyes are closed and his mouth is wide open. If he wants more food he says "na-na-NA-NA-NA". If something is in his sight and not on his tray, he'll scream for more as long as he can see it. If food is within his reach (a box of crackers, a bag of apples), he'll walk over and help himself as long as he can figure out how to get into the packaging. Otherwise he'll bring it to you for help (oh, is it time for dinner already?). He'd rather not wear shoes, socks, and will pull at his shirt to try to take it off. We'll be in trouble when he figures out that skill. In the last week he's started walking around pointing, but if you try to teach him another skill (clapping, waving) he'll look at you like he thinks you're doing quite a fine job all by yourself. He's quite serious about flipping the pages in his books, but isn't ready to slow that down so you can tell him what the words on the pages might say.

The Happiness Boys was a popular radio program of the early 1920s. It featured the vocal duo of tenor Billy Jones (1889-1940) and bass/baritone Ernie Hare (1881-1939) who sang novelty songs.CareerJones and Hare were already established as soloists on phonograph records. One of Jones's better solos was "Mary Lou," while Hare scored with the Yuletide novelty "Santa Claus Hides in the Phonograph." In 1920 recording executive Gus Haenschen had them sing an accompaniment on a Brunswick recording. They went on to do numerous recordings for Brunswick Records, Edison, and other companies. Similarities between the two singers were often noted: same height, same weight, birthdays a few days apart.They began on radio October 18, 1921 on WJZ (Newark, New Jersey), where they were sponsored by the chain of Happiness Candy stores. Listeners mailed in their comments about the singers on cards supplied to retailers by Happiness Candy.Beginning August 22, 1923, the Happiness Boys broadcast on New York's WEAF, moving to NBC from a run from 1926 to 1929.By 1928, Jones and Hare were the highest paid singers in radio, earning $1,250 a week. They also made highly successful personal appearances in the United States and Europe.The partnership ended with Ernie Hare's death on March 9, 1939. Hare's 16-year-old daughter, Marilyn Hare, joined Jones at the microphone, allowing the act to continue as "Jones and Hare" until Jones's death on November 23, 1940. (SOURCE: Wikipedia)

Most of us think of movies and television as entertainment, but the reality is that Hollywood is a business, and everything that gets produced is made for one reason: to make money.
No one understands this better than Clancy Brown. For more than 25 years, he has consistently delivered memorable performances in films (The Shawshank Redemption, Starship Troopers, The Guardian) and TV (ER, Earth 2, The Practice). While he has mastered the artistic part of his profession, Brown has also learned—mostly the hard way—the business aspects of acting. Although the lessons were difficult to accept, they played a major part in making him one of the most savvy, dependable actors working today.
One of Brown's earliest roles was portraying the immortal Kurgan in the 1986 cult classic Highlander. Back then, he was a relative newcomer to the film industry, but he got a first-hand look at just how unscrupulous some people in the business can be. "Highlander was not as smooth of a production as any of the ones I had done before, mostly because of the producers getting in the way," Brown recalls. "They weren't very experienced or professional, and they barely said, 'Thank you' for helping make the movie that is putting their grandchildren through college. In fact, they still owe me money. They were going to put out this Kurgan sword, and they asked me if I'd promote it. So I said, 'Yeah, if you pay me and you pay my charity.' They said, 'Yeah, sure,' and they paid me and my charity the first installment. They haven't paid a dime since, and I know the swords have sold out. They made all their money and ripped off my family's charity. That's what they do, that's the kind of people they are. They're not very honorable, and they don't care who they're ripping off."
Years later, Brown landed pivotal roles in two highly-acclaimed cable series, Breaking News and Carnivale. Although the shows were lauded by critics, they were ultimately cancelled due to low ratings. "The days of executives keeping shows on because they like them are over," he says. "You've gotta deliver the numbers. They both fell victim to the thing we're all victimized by, which is the commercial structure of this business. You might think the people in charge of the networks give a damn about the artistic content of a show, but they really don't. They all fancy they do, but their jobs are all about making money the easiest way possible. You sort of learn the hard way that somewhere in the middle of all those producer credits, there's a line that's drawn between people who are trying to make a better show and people who only give a damn about the return on the investment. I totally get that, and at least the shows got made. The work is out there."
These days, Brown has enjoyed great success doing voice-over work, most notably as Mr. Krabs in the animated hit, Sponge Bob Square Pants. It's a different type of acting that challenges Brown without the added pressure that live-action filming brings. "All you have to worry about is getting the words off the page with your voice," he explains. "You don't have to dress up, you don't have to work out and you do it as many times as it takes to do it right. In film and television, it's a lot of money to do takes, so you've got to have your s—t together right at the beginning. When you walk on a set, you're walking into a situation where millions of dollars have been spent. There's never that kind of financial pressure with cartoons. It's a lot lighter, it's a lot more fun and I just have a great time doing it."
Looking back at the lessons he's learned, Brown offers a no-nonsense explanation for his success in Hollywood. "I've been very lucky, but after the luck, you have to be able to deliver," he says. "You have to show up on time and know your lines. When you're a supporting actor, you have to know your place in the narrative and execute that with some proficiency. That's what they pay you for."
Clancy Brown does not sign through the mail. However, he does offer autographed photos for sale on his website, and all of the proceeds are donated to charity. For more information, visit www.clancybrown.com.

The award was given on June 11, 2014, from Texas Medical Foundation (TMF) Health Quality Institute in Austin Texas. Only 33 Texas hospitals out of 313 Acute Care Hospitals and 80 Critical Access Hospitals (CAH) statewide qualified for the Gold Award for having successfully undertaken quality initiatives to improve patient care outcomes and improve performance on specific national quality measures by the Texas Hospital Association and Texas Organization of Rural and Community Hospitals.
Gold Award winners had to meet required achievement thresholds, submit reports, and demonstrate 20 percent relative improvement in reduction of readmissions during the evaluation period or an absolute readmissions rate of 9 percent or lower.
William Kiefer, the hospital's Chief Clinical Officer, stated some of the efforts made at RRRH to win this award consisted of:
• Implementing clinically proven best practices to ensure improved patient outcomes;
• Daily clinical staff huddle to review ongoing patient charts to assure best practices are in place;
• Purchasing and Implementing use of new equipment to prevent patient falls, thus reducing hospital falls by 80% over the last two years;
• Clinical staff hourly rounds of patients to verify the patients are safe, pain-free, and that their needs are being met.
William also stated, "Proven standards of care can save lives, and we will continue to enhance our quality improvement efforts through our collaboration with partners and with TMF Health Quality Institute to ensure that every patient gets the right care at the right time, every time."
Tom Manley, CEO of TMF Health Quality Institute, said, "TMF is proud to recognize these hospitals for promoting quality improvement activities and their senior management for promoting a quality culture. Quality improvement is a complex and demanding process, and we thank the senior management of Red River Regional Hospital for their commitment to improving the health of Texans and the efficiency of health care in our state."

SPECIAL NOTE: Hey there, RYM readers, this is Barry, Brian's twin brother (or evil double, you take your pick). While he's away for a short bit to officiate at a friend's wedding he offered to let me try my hand at posting. By day I'm a Marketing Consultant, but for most of my adult life Brian has been plugging me into his ministry as either a youth group sponsor, Sunday school teacher or camp counselor. My involvement with this blog is usually as 1) a reader and 2) the guy who feeds Brian all his cool technology links, but I'll do my best to add some value in Brian's brief absence.
In a country where roughly 50% of the population continues to hold a strong belief in creationism as the most compelling theory for the existence of...well, everything...its not surprising that the recently released documentary Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed is creating both strong interest and controversy (including from some of the scientists interviewed in the film who allege they were mislead by the producers). The film -- hosted by the endearingly droll actor/economist Ben Stein (of Ferris Bueller fame) -- apparently takes a position in favor of the proposition known as Intelligent Design and against what it sees as the persecution of ID true believers in US scientific and academic circles.
In an interview on Beliefnet Stein explains that he got involved with the film because he sees the origins of evolutionary theory as something much darker than is commonly suggested:
I decided to work on it because I've always had questions about Darwinism. I have always been very concerned that Darwinism gave the basic okay to terrible racism and to the idea of murder based upon race. And I think most people don't realize what a sinister role Darwinism has had in the history of the 20th century, and I guess part of the history of the 19th century too.
Unfortunately for Stein (and the film's producers) Expelled has already been panned by most major critics, many of whom make a case similar to Beliefnet's Becky Garrison that the film simply falls far short of making a compelling case:
While Expelled set its sights on disarming their enemy - the "neo-Darwinists" who have ostracized scientists who dare give credence to intelligent design - more often than not they ended up shooting biblical blanks. Unfortunately, the nuances of the evolution versus intelligent design debate were left on the cutting floor in favor of more provocative soundbites that one might expect from say an NBC Dateline "Catch an Evolutionist!"-type special.
I haven't yet seen the film, but plan to despite the fact that I see no inherent contradiction between a belief in evolution and a belief in a biblical perspective of the world. And while I'm definitely more on the skeptical side of the ID debate, I think this is a fascinating debate that we should be eager to expose our young people to and invite them to engage in. These are the sorts of topics that I love bringing into a youth group meeting or into my high school Sunday School class because it allows you to challenge the youth to take a stand and then explain and defend that stand. And if they get passionate about it and argue a little, so much the better! To me it matters little which side of the controversy they come down on as long as they are gaining experience in taking ownership of what they believe and in articulating a reasoning for that belief.
I've been looking for an outing for my Sunday School class to shake the students up a little -- maybe I'll take them to see this movie. What do you think?

Guest Blogger: Exploring the New Movie "EXPELLED"

Hey Barry-
I agree, I think any conversation is a good trend, and the best thing that we can do as an influence in young people lives is to give them the tools to think for themselves.
But gosh, I just wish they had picked someone other than Ben Stein. Blah, and from what I've seen of the preview (I haven't seen the movie yet) it seems that they're too intent on completely delineating the two views, and not exploring any avenues where strict science (maybe micro-evolution, as opposed to macro-evolution) works in tandem with Christianity.
I'm a lover of all science, and it's hard sometimes to see Christians treat it with such disdain.

I think that Stein's next movie is where it's at, actually:

Laura, thanks for the comment. I just read your own post about the movie on your blog and found it very interesting. Its sort of ironic that I don't believe in ID and yet plan to see the movie, and you do believe in it and don't have any desire to see it -- it just shows you that we are all coming from such different vantage points that dialogue without preconceived assumptions about what's in people's heads is vital. I also appreciate your statement on your blog that its too important a topic to sensationalize (i.e. with a movie that is seems to equate Darwinism with Hitler).
- Laura Francabandera said...
That is really funny. That's why I love the conversations that these blogs induce. Whatever we leave believing, or not believing, the important thing is that we're talking about the topic.
That is, unfortunately, more than most people can say for themselves. :)

This conference poster of mine shows how profoundly the continental, Haeckelian type of vulgar evolutionism drived not only the 'Politics-is-applied-biology' Nazi takeover but also the nationalistic collapse of the World War I. It was Charles Darwin himself, who raised the monstrous Haeckel in the spotlight as the greatest authority in the field of human evolution, even in the preface to his Descent of man in 1871:
Biochemist, drop-out (Master of Sciing)

The generic_64 subarch is designed to support 64-bit PC-compatible CPUs, such as the AMD K8-series processors, which were introduced in late 2003. They were notable as the first processors that supported the AMD64 (also called X86-64) 64-bit instruction set for PC-compatible systems, which was introduced as a backwards-compatible 64-bit alternative to Intel's IA-64 architecture. Intel followed suit and also began supporting this 64-bit instruction set, which they called "Intel 64", by releasing X86-64 64-bit compatible CPUs from mid-2004 onwards (See Intel 64 implementations.)
AMD desktop 64-bit CPUs include the Athlon 64, Athlon 64 FX, Athlon 64 X2, Athlon X2, Turion 64, Turion 64 X2 and Sempron series processors. AMD server processors were released under the Opteron brand and have codenames SledgeHammer, Venus, Troy, Athens, Denmark, Italy, Egypt, Santa Ana and Santa Rosa. All Opterons released through late 2006 were based on the K8 microarchitecture with original X86-64 instructions.

North Carolina Man Guilty in East Texas Fraud Scheme
SHERMAN, Texas – A 27-year-old Morganton, NC man has pleaded guilty in connection with an oil and gas scheme in the Eastern District of Texas, announced U.S. Attorney John M. Bales.
Justin Spearman pleaded guilty to wire fraud today before U.S. Magistrate Judge Christine A. Nowak.
According to information presented in court, in June 2015, Spearman devised and executed a scheme to defraud another individual by filing fraudulent Assignments of Overriding Royalty Interest (ORI)s in Greeley Colorado, and attempting to do so in Cheyenne, Wyoming, that actually belonged to other persons, one of which was the owner of a royalties company located in Collin County, Texas. Spearman was indicted by a federal grand jury on July 15, 2015.
Spearman faces up to 20 years in federal prison at sentencing. The maximum statutory sentence is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes, as the sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the court based on the advisory sentencing guidelines and other statutory factors. A sentencing date has not been set.
This case is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Chris Eason.

In the latest of a series of steps taken toward tempering the side effects brought on by ever-growing vibrancy within Louisville's downtown corridor, the City Council on Tuesday night voted to approve a land exchange aimed at accommodating the crowds that have begun to transform the district.
In partnership with Boulder-based developer 608 Studios LLC, officials moved forward with the land-exchange contract focused on the 600 block of Main Street. The block rests at the core of Louisville's vibrant downtown, housing local mainstays such as Blue Parrot Restaurant and Lucky Pie Pizza and Taphouse.
The land swap will make way for a retail- and commercial-centric location with added parking spaces, officials said Tuesday. It could also open the door for the city to usher in an east-west parking structure in the heart of the vibrant shopping sector in the near future.
As part of the exchange, the city will transfer the westerly 45 feet of the Blue Parrot parking lot to Eric Fowles, of 608 Studios. In return, Fowles will then transfer the easterly 105 feet of the 608 Main property to the city, officials said.
"I think this positions the city in a really great way to address parking into the future," Louisville resident and owner of DAJ Design, a Louisville-based architecture firm, Andy Johnson said Tuesday. "Through being a business owner and a resident, I feel it fills a hole in our urban fabric that's like a tooth missing in a set of great teeth."
The downtown corridor's many attractions, despite reports by some of dwindling profits , have brought with them an inflow of cash. Sales tax revenue for the area so far this year (January to September) has totaled $766,150, according to the city's website. The total represents an-almost 6 percent increase over all of 2015's of $722,630.
But as the quaint and history-rich shopping district continues to draw patrons from around the county, the question of how to avoid the district's continual crowding-out effect has persisted. A question that has proven burdensome for local officials to answer over the years.
In recent months, the city has attempted to address the problem in several fashions: Expanding the public parking lot adjacent to Lucky Pie Pizza, adding 28 parking spaces; leasing 45 evening-hour spaces at Koko Plaza; purchasing .638 acres in the DELO area to accommodate 68 new parking spaces; and most recently, the purchase of a 25-space parking lot from the Blue Parrot Restaurant for $700,000.
"I think there are more advantages than disadvantages to this project," Mayor Bob Muckle said. "With land decisions there are always — well, you certainly close some doors but I think this (deal) leaves some doors open."
Residents, businesses and property owners have all complained that downtown Louisville lacks adequate parking.
As illustrated in the city's 2013 parking study, downtown Louisville lacks adequate space for visitor's cars. Downtown parking demand exceeds the existing supply, according to the report, and parking for downtown businesses, including city facilities, extends into the surrounding neighborhoods.
Despite the board's approval Tuesday night — all except council member Ashley Stolzmann voted in favor of the two ordinances — doubts over the project's ability to quell some of the parking issues lingered.
"It's hard to predict the future," council member Susan Loo said in closing. "Would we be better off keeping the property that we have? Maybe, but at this point in time I see a window of opportunity.
"I wouldn't want future councils to say, 'well, they were so stupid and they had an opportunity to swap that piece of land and if they did we would be so much better off today.'"

Brian Williams appeared calm during his first court appearance Wednesday.
The 24-year-old Rancho Penasquitos man faces two murder charges for the stabbing deaths of his mother and sister.
His mother, Donna Williams, was a decorated veteran of the San Diego Police Department. His sister, Bree Williams was a standout athlete and recent graduate of Mt. Carmel High School.
During Williams' arraignment, new details were released about the double homicide that took place around 1:30 a.m. Monday at the Williams' home on Paseo Montril.
Witnesses who heard screams coming from inside the home called 911. When officers arrived, they found Bree Williams' body on the front walk way. Her brother was calmly sitting next to her, a large kitchen knife not far away.
Donna Wiliams was found inside the home.
Prosecutors said both victims were found with their throats slit.
Witnesses told investigators that after Williams watched his sister fall off the second-story balcony outside her bedroom, Brian Williams calmly walked back through the upstairs bedroom window, walked to his sister's body and sat down next to her.
Williams' public defender asked for his client to be put in protective custody because, he says, he wants deputies to observe Williams in order to determine for themselves that he suffers from mental illness.
Williams will continue to be held without bail and will be back in court next week.
