Each year, Target Marketing publishes a list of the Top 50 (Direct) Mailers of the year. The 2012 list has some interesting changes from 2011.
Among the top 5 mailers this year are three financial services firms: JP Morgan Chase in the top spot, followed immediately by Citigroup, and Discover at #5. Mutual of Omaha, an insurer, just misses out on top 5 status in the sixth slot. Also among the top 50 was GEICO at number 16.
As a point of comparison, in 2011 only three financial services were on the list: Citi at #1, GEICO in the third position, and Mutual of Omaha at #4. Chase and Discover weren't even top 50 last year.
Here's my take on what could help explain these changes:
1. Credit cards are making a comeback. After a few lean years, some combination of three things — the economy, demographics, expanding target bands — are impacting the credit card market. The economy as a whole doesn't appear to be improving too rapidly (if 2008-2009 was the Great Recession, then 2010-present is the Worst. Recovery. Ever.), but issuers may be seeing improving credit scores that are fueling their offers.
Demographics may be impacting that as well — older Gen Yers are solidly in their late 20s/early 30s, more established in their financial lives, and reaching a life stage (i.e., home ownership, starting families) where having access to credit is more important.
In addition, issuers may be expanding their targets to "marginally" high end consumers, and not just solidly high end prospects (most of whom probably have more cards than they need).
2. The channel is performing. By all indications, credit cards demonstrate the highest rate of online product applications among major financial products. But although online research for credit cards is prevalent, that's not to say the direct mail channel isn't effectively driving consumers online to research, and ultimately apply. I haven't seen direct mail response rates recently, but with the financial troubles that the USPS has had, I'd bet they're making it more economical for large mailers to run campaigns. So even if response rates haven't improved, a lower cost of mailing drives up ROI.
The other aspect of channel performance that could be impacting the change in mailing volume is an improvement in analytical models. I've had a number of conversations over the past six months with leading marketing services providers who have talked about new analytical offerings driving improved performance, Equifax's True In-market Propensity Scores being one example.
3. Other channels are under-performing. The reality of the card market might just be that no channel can drive customer acquisition like direct mail can. TV? I guess not. Email? Nope. Social media? Muwahahaha! You must be kidding be. It's interesting to note here that JPMC, the new #1 in direct mail, is mentioned by nearly every financial services conference presenter as a "best practice" in social media for its Chase Giving Facebook page. Is it successful at driving large scale new cardholder acquisition? If it was, would Chase put as many resources towards direct mail as it does? Maybe, but I'd bet not.

86kgs KG
77kgs KG
12 Weeks
United Kingdom
I had be lifting in the gym for a few years not really seeing the results I thought I should be so started getting annoyed with myself and loosing motivation whilst still trying to out train my poor diet. It wasn't until I saw a picture of Josef pop up on my instagram I had a whole new inspiration and level of motivation. I straight away e-mailed him asking a load of different questions thinking I wouldn't hear anything for days and probably wouldn't be JR to reply. That night had a massive reply answering all my questions and more so I signed straight up to his ultimate personal training package. All my programs were designed specifically to me so for the 1st month I stuck to the plans exactly hoping to see a slight change. For the 1st time I was weighing my foods and training with some direction. In a month I went from 86kg and over 20% bodyfat to 77kg and below 15% bodyfat. Now I am hooked, and absolutely loving every minute of my training, the food plans are awesome and are updated each month, I actually look forward to each meal. Can't wait to see what the future brings for me working with Josef, has really given me a new direction in life now. No matter how many questions I ask he always reply's straight away. Highly recommend purchasing the ultimate programme to anyone, don't waste anymore time in the gym like I did. Whatever your goals this is definitely the man to see, Can't thank him enough. #JRFresults

I know, I know, I'm sorry!
The show is already underway and I'm only letting you guys know what we have on it now. Apologies but at least I've been working hard to help make tonight's show must-listen radio.
Anyway, without further ado… tonight Rick will be talking to the legendary, the one and only, the amazing and brilliant (drum roll please) John Aldridge. Ok, Aldo may not be the best singer in the world but nobody is perfect and he was a legend in the green jersey (and the red of Liverpool too) so we'll forgive him for being tone deaf. Find out how he's enjoying the Charity You're A Star experience when he chats to Rick.
We'll also be checking out some of the more interesting new singles sent into us in the last few days with our regular Yes/No Patrol slot. Btw, if you want to be part of that, email email@example.com and tell us all about your love for music.
And in the final hour of the show I'll be chatting to Rick about Lady In the Water and our DVD release of the week.
So stay tuned and I promise that next week I will actually post the show's running order before we actually take to the airwaves.
Don't forget the chart show is tomorrow night. Have a great weekend!

Limited Edition Mediabook
RELEASE DATE: 10th Jan 2020
Back to the front in so many ways, Apocalyptica are proud to announce the release of their 9th studio album Cell-0. Bristling with an epically baroque life and energy, January 10th 2020 is not just the sound of Apocalyptica returning to their expansive instrumental roots, it is the sound of Apocalyptica revisiting their deepest love with a renewed sense of knowledge and passion. The journeys are deeper, the destinations further and the rewards so much richer than anything the exciting, ambitious quartet have ever produced.
Produced by the band and mixed by Andrew Scheps, who has worked with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lana Del Rey, Metallica and Black Sabbath, Cell-0 sees the band soaring into ethereal space on "Ashes Of The Modern World" while diving head-first into aggressive thrash 'cello-riffery' during "En Route To Mayhem". At once a smorgasbord, symphony and crushing metallic masterpiece, Cell-0 shows a band at the very peak of its unique and magical compositional powers.

I had previously met Samantha and Mikey at my best friends engagement shoot. I wasn't even engaged at the time, but after spending the afternoon with them I knew when my time came I had to have them. Not only are their pictures bold, beautiful, and full of life, but working with them was even better. They are both incredibly kind, sweet, and so much fun to be around. Samantha has this great ability to make you feel comfortable; posing you in ways that don't feel awkward or forced and Mikey compliments her perfectly adding in thoughts and ideas while also capturing photos from every angle without you even knowing he is there. If you are lucky enough to book The Photography Smiths you will NOT be disappointed. They truly are a dream team and do everything they can to make your fairy tale wedding become a reality.

Episode 50: R&R Conference Series Part 5
This is the fifth and final episode in a series recorded at the Recruit and Retain Conference in Nashville earlier this year. Some of you may know it as the R&R conference. This episode contains a compilation of multiple interviews who we spoke with at the conference.
In this week's episode, we will be speaking to Todd Hensley, Vice President at Driver iQ; Scott Dismuke, Director of Agents at Professional Driver Agency; and Shannon Newton, President at Arkansas Trucking Association.
Listen in to get the lowdown on some of the challenges and possible solutions surrounding recruiting and retaining long-term professional drivers. These experts will share the top trends and their predictions for how the industry will need to handle recruitment and retention going forward.
"I think recruiting is a complicated problem and I think the solutions are equally complicated. We can have an impact on the image of the industry and educating people on the types of professions that exist in the industry and teach young people that you can earn a good living without going to college."
– Shannon Newton from Arkansas Trucking Association
What you'll learn about in this episode:
- The frustration, cost, and time it takes to find qualified long-haul drivers
- The fact that the older generation of drivers are beginning to retire and it is getting more difficult to find young drivers willing to be away from home for weeks at a time
- The high rate of driver turnover and career switching within the trucking industry and how proper hiring and training can reduce drivers leaving the industry
- The structural changes which need to take place within the industry if it is going to remain thriving and attracting qualified drivers
- The negative effects of litigation and how new regulations continue to have an impact when it comes to hiring drivers
- The inspiration behind the Professional Driver Agency and how it can help drivers to find secure jobs while assisting companies to find drivers ready to get to work
- The guests' predictions concerning the future of the industry over the next three to five years

MSDE Desktop Security
I have heard that it's generally a bad idea to run MS-SQL on a machine that's either has a real IP or is not behind a firewall, so I'm wondering if it's a bad idea to run the free MSDE Desktop (or ASP) server. Microsoft's website says that you can run MSDE as the database server for ASP.NET websites. However, I'm worried if I run it, I'll be compromising my machine.
Andrew Burton
If you're running the database for a website, it doesn't need to be open to the 'net - it only needs to be open to the process running the site. Even if it's on the same machine, you can firewall it so 1433 calls are only allowed from the local host.
I think there's a setup switch for MSDE to disable all network protocols.
Duncan Smart
Philo: I'm ashamed to say this, but blocking that port from the outside hadn't even occured to me. Thank you!
Andrew Burton
Being a pedant... blocking 1433 wouldn't be enough as this only block calls via the TCP/IP Socket NetLib, Named pipes is also enabled by default so you'd need to block SMB/NetBIOS/NetBT too - which would also stop you being able to share out files (which might not be a huge problem).
Duncan Smart
...and Slammer was exploiting port *1434* which is where SQL announces/confirms its presence.
Duncan Smart
Attention all firewall users:
David Jones
amen, brother!

CENTER CITY (WPVI) -- Police say a driver may have lost consciousness from misusing medical marijuana before his vehicle hit several pedestrians and another vehicle outside a hospital in Center City Philadelphia on Friday afternoon.
The crash happened at 10th and Sansom streets just outside the emergency room at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital around 4 p.m.
According to investigators, a 68-year-old man behind the wheel of Dodge Challenger lost control while driving southbound on 10th when he jumped the curb and struck three people who were walking on the sidewalk.
The impact left three people ages 64, 51 and 39 in critical condition.
Police said the Challenger then crossed Sansom and hit a Nissan Rogue SUV with a family of three inside.
Those family members - a 31-year-old man, a 56-year-old man and a 75-year-old woman - are in fair condition.
Alex Jackson of Logan said his brother, nephew and mother were in the SUV that was hit. His mother had just been discharged from the hospital moments earlier.
"She's fine now. She's just a little shook up but they are going to let her go back home," said Jackson.
The driver of the Challenger is also in stable condition.
Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small said a preliminary investigation reveals the driver may have been unconscious or semiconscious as a result of medical marijuana.
Small said investigators are working to obtain a search warrant to draw blood from the driver.
If he is found to be over the legal limit of medical marijuana or under the influence of another substance, he will be charged with aggravated assault by vehicle.
Jackson said he's grateful for the hospital staff who sprang into action.
"I thank them very much for all the staff and everybody that helped out," said Jackson.
Earlier reports from the scene about a child being injured in this incident are unfounded, police say.

GS-85 Blood Sugar
by Francene Frayer (30.10.2020)
People who are overweight or GS-85 Blood Sugar Review obese need to check periodically for the development of resistance to insulin which would be evident from the tests for pre-diabetes. Moreover, anyone with a family history must do regular tests especially after the age of 40-45 years. Those who have a history of hypertension and are physically inactive are also susceptible candidates. Those having diabetes will exhibit noticeable symptoms like excessive thirst, increased urination and excess hunger. This is because the body is unable to utilize the excess glucose present in the blood. Along with that, the desperate attempt to eliminate the surplus glucose results in polyuria. But instead of depending on the clinical history, laboratory tests provide reliable results. The commonly used tests for detecting pre-diabetes and diabetes include: Fasting Plasma Glucose test The test is recommended to be done in the morning to obtain the most accurate results. The blood sample is taken from the person who fasts for the minimum eight hours. Those having plasma glucose levels of 100 to 125 mg/dl after eight hours of fasting can be categorized as pre-diabetics. Values consistently above 125 mg/dl clearly indicate diabetic condition. Glucose Tolerance Test Glucose tolerance test is used to diagnose pre-diabetic stage accurately, even though used to detect diabetic state as well. After the fasting period of eight hours, the parson drinks water containing 75 gms glucose.

So, Ive been working on some photos for a photographer these last few hours/days and Im really beginning to enjoy the program I am using.
Adobe LightRoom 2 is amazing!!
Below is a quick example of work that I just did, fixing the shot on the left and turning it into the shot on the right . . . very easy and wonderful to work with.
You can find the trial version here on Adobe.com and give it your own evaluation. Be warned though, it only lasts for 30 days, and if you use it a lot, you will find yourself craving the permanent version that is a few hundred bucks, but at least from where I sit, it is totally worth it.
And if you were wondering . . . I did NOT get paid for this . . . I am just having such a good time working with it, that I thought I would share some of the awesomeness . . .

Roma Hukukunda İbra İşlemi (Acceptilatio) ve Alacağı Talep Etmeme Taahhüdü (Pactum De Non Petendo)
Özyıldırım, Mehmet Mert
xmlui.dri2xhtml.METS-1.0.item-embAcik erisim
xmlui.mirage2.itemSummaryView.MetaDataShow full item record
Acceptilatio is a release transaction which extinguishes the obligation in Roman Law in terms of Ius Civile in the case that creditor and debtor agree on the subject that the debt shall not be paid, in other words it extinguishes the obligation where the creditor relinquishes his claim. This transaction also constitutes the basis of the release agreement in modern laws. Acceptilatio directly discharges both principal obligation and accessory obligations such as pledge, surety, debit interest and penalty clause without any additional legal act. In order to make acceptilatio validly in the way that is recognized by Ius Civile, the debtor must also consent to the release. In Roman Law, so as to make a release with acceptilatio, the debtor must declare his will verbally and formally by asking question and the creditor must also answer the question with the same formal words. Therefore, it is not possible to make a release in Roman Law informally. On the other hand, pactum de non petendo is an informal agreement between the debtor and creditor that the debt shall not be claimed temporarily or permanently. Nevertheless, this agreement extinguishes the obligation not in the terms of Ius Civile, as in acceptilatio, but only extinguishes it within the scope of Ius Honorarium on the condition that an exception (exceptio) is put forward by the debtor during trial. As a result of this situation, by making pactum de non petendo, only the debt which is subject to agreement is discharged not the whole obligation in a broad sense. Additionally, in the case that the agreement of this kind is made between debtor and creditor, obligation extinguishes only for the parties who made the agreement, but continues to exist in a valid way for the surety, joint debtors or joint creditors. Therefore, pactum de non petendo is not a release transaction in both Roman and contemporary laws, but it is an informal agremeent which is protected by exception in case of breach.

A Cytotoxic Killer TCell induces a cancer cell to undergo programmed cell death known as apoptosis. These Killer TCells are programmed to seek out, attach themselves and kill cancer cells, usually using chemicals. They recognize a specific site (antigen) on the surface of cancer cells and bind to it. The Killer T Cell then eliminates the cancer cell by releasing a protein that forms pores in the cancer cell's membrane and specifically induces apoptosis.

D.A. Ready to Extradite Movie Star & Wife
Santa Barbara – Being a famous actor—even one who has been nominated for an Academy Award—doesn't hold much weight when the Santa Barbara District Attorney smells a crime. This is the ongoing reality experienced by the star of such renowned films as The Last Detail, Brokeback Mountain, Midnight Express, and The Last Picture Show, Randy Quaid.
The 64-year-old Quaid and his wife Evi were both arrested in Santa Barbara on September 19, 2010 and charged with felony vandalism, misdemeanor trespassing, and defrauding an innkeeper. Evi Quaid was separately charged at the time with resisting arrest. Both were released on bail at the time, but neither has ever appeared in court to face the original charges, and have been sought on a warrant charging them with felony failure to appear while out on bail ever since.
According to Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department Public Information Officer Kelly Hoover, the Quaids were soon after seen in Vancouver, British Columbia where they sought asylum pursuant to their fears of retribution from "a group they call the 'Hollywood Star Whackers'." Living in exile in Canada for the past five years has apparently worn thin, however, as the Quaids—who had relocated to Montreal—were detained on October 2nd by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at a border crossing leading into the state of Vermont. When the border patrol agents discovered that their detainees were fugitives and wanted in Santa Barbara County, Mr. & Mrs. Quaid were remanded into the custody of Vermont State Police.
The Santa Barbara County Sheriff and the Santa Barbara District Attorney's Office, upon learning of their apprehension, reported "It is the intent of the sheriff's office and the District Attorney's Office that Mr. and Mrs. Quaid—either voluntarily or, if necessary, by a warrant from the governor of California—go through the judicial process."
Hoover indicated to the media that a Santa Barbara Felony Fugitives Unit would "coordinate their return" to Santa Barbara to face their pending charges.
But in another twist worthy of a Hollywood movie, or at least a TV special, the Vermont judge, Alison Arms, ordered the couple's release from custody, dismissing the charges that they were fugitives from justice. She reportedly reviewed the paperwork and determined that there was no legal basis for their incarceration in Vermont.
According to USA Today, the issue in Quaid's hearing was whether he should be released on conditions or reduced bail, and whether a California judge ever found probable cause to support charges against him and his wife. Arms ruled there is no probable cause to charge Quaid with vandalism or trespassing in California, and later made the same determination for Evi Quaid.
However, Judge Arms did find a legal basis for the charges against them both for failing to appear in court in 2010. Meanwhile, Santa Barbara County D. A. Joyce Dudley stated that the Quaids' release was news to her, and she had yet to review anything from the Vermont court. The couple still face extradition to California.

THE Taiwanese sex musical "The Way ward Cloud" is notable for its bizarre uses of watermelons. I won't give you the details because my editor would just cut them out. But you will discover them in the early minutes of the bizarre film.
The director is, you won't be surprised to learn, Tsai Ming-laing, whose deadpan humor and minimalist lensing has made him a god among film geeks.
"The Wayward Cloud" picks up where Tsai's Truffaut homage "What Time Is It There?" (2001) left off. In the earlier film, a watch salesman (Tsai regular Lee Kang-shen) fell for a woman (Chen Shiang-chyi) who shopped at his sidewalk stall in Taipei before she ran off to Paris, where the great Jean-Pierre Leaud tried to pick her up.
It's some years later now, and the two (played by the same actors) find themselves staying in the same apartment building in Taipei. Only the salesman isn't selling watches anymore – he's selling his body in porn flicks, which he makes with a chubby Japanese woman (played by a real porn star).
Water figures in just about every Tsai film – in this case, it's the lack of water. Taipei is suffering a serious drought, and citizens are urged to eat watermelons for nourishment.
Tsai revs up the erotically charged energy level with outrageous visual gags. And – as in Tsai's "The Hole" (1998) – Busby Berkeley-inspired musical numbers pop up out of nowhere. One involves watermelon-colored umbrellas, another takes place in a public men's room.
The film's long – too long? – finale is . . . well, again, my editor wouldn't like me to say too much.
In Mandarin, with English subtitles. Running time: 112 minutes. Unrated (sex, nudity, watermelons). At Anthology Film Archives, Second Avenue and Second Street, East Village.

It has been a yearly tradition for me to make Christmas fruit cakes around this time. This year, I almost didn't do it! I still had a fairly good chunk left from last year (don't say 'eww', this stuff lasts forever!) and was feeling lazy at the prospect of shopping for the fruit and taking the time to prepare the pans and bake the cakes.
Of course, I came to my senses and got my butt in gear (you can't leave this too late because the cakes need time to ripen before the holidays). I always give one of the cakes to my brother so my guilt got the better of me when I pictured myself empty handed as he asked for his yearly cake! Once I got into the bulk store, which has a very distinct spicy aroma, I was happy I changed my mind. There is something about getting all the candied and dried fruit, soaking it in rum overnight, and mixing all the ingredients together, that prepares my mind and soul for the Christmas to come.
Sure enough, as soon as I could smell the fantastic aroma of the cakes baking in the oven I was both in the mood for the season and dying for a bite of cake! I got that chunk from last year out and hubby and I had a slice with our tea. This year's cakes turned out flawlessly and I yielded 2 medium and 2 small of both a round and a square. Each year is different depending on which pans I prepare (last year was a giant square and some smaller cakes). I always have to prepare brother's with a traditional almond paste layer and royal icing on top. I know he will be pleased to get it and I'm happy I won't have to ration any for the rest of the family - there's enough to last until next year!
If you'd like to make your own dark Christmas cakes (yes, there's still time), here's my video!

Mercedes Benz USA Flex 3 Site Launched
It's an ecstatic day for us here at Anaara Media as mbusa.com went live this morning. It has been a tremendous effort for our team, the in-house team at Mercedes in New Jersey, and also Yakov Fain and Valerie Silaev over at Farata Systems in Russia. We had been working around the clock on this project since January. The presentation tier is Flex 3 using the Cairngorm framework, on the back end they have a robust CMS talking with Java, and in between it all is Adobe LiveCycle Data Services.
It was great to finally see our efforts on this project go live, but things are only ramping up here as we begin work on an iPhone application for a major telecom and we are also wrapping up on a DOD e-Learning project done in Flash with four million end users…
In short, the RIA space is still in the supernova phase.

Ofertas365 Limited is proud to announce the launch of its brand new lottery – Crypto Millions Lotto. Crypto Millions Lotto is the world's largest online crypto lottery and provides a unique opportunity for players to play with Bitcoin – and to also win Bitcoin as prizes.
New customers will receive three free lines as an introductory offer and if that isn't enough of an incentive, consider the jackpot which starts at a whopping US$30 million and rolls over on each draw until it is won!
All customers can be assured that the draws are completely trustworthy, transparent and fair as they are based on the outcome of the German National Lottery. Operational since 1955, the German National Lottery has an exemplary reputation in the industry and is televised twice weekly at times which are sure to quickly become the focus of Crypto Millions Lotto players around the world: at 6.25pm on Wednesdays and 7.25pm on Saturdays – Central European Time.
Bringing Bitcoin into the mainstream
In addition to offering exceptional prizes, Crypto Millions Lotto effectively bypasses the qualifying requirements of residency and any need to participate in local currency, which are common playing conditions of many existing lotteries around the world. Key to Bitcoin's appeal is the payment freedom it provides, whereby it can be sent and received anywhere in the world, at any time, without the burden of national borders or the unnecessary bureaucracy of traditional currencies.
However, one of the most significant features of the launch of Crypto Millions Lotto is the major step it represents in bringing the world's most widely used alternative currency further into the mainstream.
As Sulim Malook, CEO at Ofertas365, states: "We are delighted to launch Crypto Millions Lotto and believe that giving away three chances to win prizes worth tens of millions of dollars will encourage Bitcoin usage and adoption. Our affiliation with two top notch fiat-to-crypto exchanges – Coinbase and Wirex – will ensure new players get the best possible user experience, the cheapest fees and the most competitive fiat-to-Bitcoin conversion rates."
Supported by market-leading technology
For Bitcoin holders, the process to start playing for the coveted US$30 million jackpot is very quick and easy. For those who need to buy Bitcoin, they are directed straight to market leading affiliate partners – Coinbase and Wirex.
The need for guaranteed peace of mind for players using Bitcoin with Crypto Millions Lotto is stressed by Pavel Matveev, CEO of Wirex: "In common with our partners Ofertas365, Wirex also know about delivering a unique service. As the world's only licensed business account that allows payments in both crypto and traditional currency, we are pleased to provide our service to Crypto Millions Lotto. Our UK Financial Conduct Authority approval will undoubtedly provide the financial security that players require. Wirex delivers unbeatable value, flexibility and transaction speed by combining the efficiency of cryptocurrency payments with the universal acceptance of traditional fiat currency accounts, on a global scale."
Licensed for everyone to enjoy
These capabilities make them a perfect match, as Ofertas365 is licensed to operate in more than 100 countries which includes anywhere online gambling is not prohibited. The company's jackpots are comparable to the biggest State and National lotteries in the US and Europe, and for peace of mind are insured at Lloyd's of London, the world's leading insurance market.
Sulim Malook concludes: "We believe that our lotteries and games will provide a great deal of enjoyment because it's much more fun to win Bitcoin than fiat
currency! We welcome further collaborations and partnerships that will expand and guarantee our offering."

Baker, Dave
Origin: Vancouver - Nanaimo, British Columbia, 🇨🇦
Dave Baker was born in Vancouver in 1945. His childhood days were in Nanaimo and his adolescence in Duncan. While in Nanaimo he lived on St Andrews Street next to the E&N tracks. It was at that time Dave became very interested in trains which has since lasted a lifetime.
Dave moved from Nanaimo to Duncan in 1957 and lived on Maple Bay Road. It was there he got involved in music. In 1960 Dave formed a rock'n roll band and for three years his band played at highschools and community halls all up and down Vancouver Island.
In 1963 Dave graduated from Cowichan High and then enrolled at UBC taking mechanical engineering. Throughout those years he did did very little in music but did perform at sing-a-longs. Upon graduating from UBC, in 1969 Dave moved to Montreal to start his new job. It was then he joined the Montreal Workshop and began singing and song writing his songs. In April of 1971, Dave married Marlene and in the fall they both went to Port Alberni where Dave worked in the pulp and paper mill and they began starting a family. In 1972 Dave formed a group of Port Alberni musicians and began recording his songs at Jim Rutherford's home studio.
In 1973 Dave went to a recording studio, Studio 3, in Vancouver with his songs and played them for Studio manager Ralph Harding. Ralph liked his songs and assigned studio producer Jake Doell to record an album entitled Kettle Valley Line Two singles from album were Now and Then and Walk that Endless Highway. Both singles got action on Canadian Country charts.
There was a management change at Studio 3 and Dave planned another album which was to be produced by Martin Shaer. The album was called Endless Highway. The single Emily Carr World of Small did well but the rest of the album didn't get much attention.
In 1980 Dave ended his career in music - or so he thought.
In 1993 Dave met an old acquaintance in music Ed Molyski at a Vancouver music conference. Together they planned a new CD which included Dave's new songs and some of the old songs rerecorded. The CD was called This Land is What I Am. It was released in 1995. Reception was cool but many remarked favourably about his railroad songs.
Recognizing their interest, Dave did a concept CD featuring his own railway songs and covers of other railroad songs by Gordon Lightfoot, Ray Griff, and Jimmy Rankin. Dave called the CD Songs and Sounds of Canadian Steam. Besides the songs the CD has steam locomotive whistles on some of the tracks
At the time of release (1998) Dave suffered a stroke so everything was put on hold.
In 2001 Dave ran expensive ads in Trains Magazine Kalmbach Wisconsin. His friends thought he was making a big error. He was creating mailorder service. The results were very amazing. For Dave's investment paid off in spades over a 3 year period.
But Dave's biggest achievement was yet to come.
Vancouver composer/arranger Dr Larry Nickel was commissioned by internationally known men's choir Chor Leoni to find folk songs from every Province in Canada. The chosen songs would be included in their 2005 Bard on the Beach concerts and then on the CD Canadian Safari 2.
Dr. Nickel could only find one B.C. song, Williams Lake Stampede, by veteran B.C. singer/songwriter Alan Moberg suitable for the project. Dr. Nickel asked Alan if he knew of other songs from B.C. that might be suitable. Alan recommended that Dr. Nickel contact Dave.
At Dr. Nickel's request, Dave sent his railway CD to see if some of the songs were suitable. Dr. Nickel chose three of Dave's songs Royal Hudson, Kettle Valley Railroad and Canadian Hobo's Lullaby. They were performed by Choir Leoni at their concerts and Royal Hudson and Kettle Valley Railroad were included on their CD Canadian Safari 2.
Cypress Choral Music published Royal Hudson and Kettle Valley Railroad and put the songs into their catalogue.
The results have been astounding for Royal Hudson primarily because of Dr. Nickel's brilliant arrangement. The song has now been performed by over 150 choirs in Canada, the U.S., Britain, Australia, and New Zealand. Other songs that have also done well are Dave's fishing song Old Lady Rose and his song about Vancouver Island This Land is What I Am.
Dave feels that one of his best achievements was having 20 Ontario choirs perform his work.
Dave's career in music is winding down now. His railroad songs Royal Hudson and Kettle Valley Line are considered Canadian cult classics. Dave is now recognized as a composer of Canadian folk songs.
His work will live on for decades to come.

Genes expressed in fibroblasts
Test Guide
It is now clear that missense and synonymous variants within exons and some intronic variants can affect pre-mRNA splicing. While predictive programs can identify alterations in splice enhancers and suppressors and creation or deletion of recognition sequences, they are poor at determining if they are used. In addition, it is difficult to determine the splice outcomes of variants that affect canonical splice acceptor and donor sites, which may affect assessments of the clinical outcomes. Thus when genomic sequencing identifies a variant that may affect pre-mRNA splicing or a variant that is predicted to be pathogenic at the molecular level but the nature and abundance of abnormal mRNA splice products are unknown, it is important for clinical decision making and management to determine the effects through functional studies. Because these studies are generally unavailable the CDL now offers mRNA splicing studies of genes that are included in our test menu and are expressed in dermal fibroblasts.
The sample requirement is two T25 flasks of near confluent dermal fibroblasts. We do NOT accept skin biopsies. Please inform our lab genetic counselor (Dru Leistritz, MS, CGC, phone: 206-543-5464, firstname.lastname@example.com) in advance before submitting cells for splicing studies. The turnaround time will depend on the complexity of the splice outcome but should fall in the range of 3-5 weeks.
Procedure: Cultured fibroblasts are grown to sufficient numbers. RNA is isolated from the cells in the presence and absence of cycloheximide (CHX), a drug that inhibits protein translation and helps stabilize mRNA species that contain premature termination codons (PTCs). Complementary DNA (cDNA) is synthesized and the region of interest amplified by PCR with coding sequence primers alongside a normal control. The amplification products are examined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Abnormal products are excised from the gel, reamplified, and sequenced.
Specimen Requirements
Two T25 flasks of near confluent dermal fibroblasts. We do NOT accept skin biopsies.
Special Instructions
Please inform our lab genetic counselor (Dru Leistritz, MS, CGC, phone: 206-543-5464, email@example.com) in advance before submitting cells for splicing studies.
Clinical information outlining the indication for the requested tests and pertinent medical history and family history is a necessary component of testing. Please include a clinic note when available.

Your Body Holon
Cosmic Tone 13 pulses to the LEFT ANKLE all day.
Theme is 13Leucine or Yellow 13 Cosmic Star. Big art, creativity and enjoyment pulses to the right thigh, low back and buttock and genital area down to the knee. We're in belly dancing region here which is very healthy for women and men. The hips need to keep rotating to be healthy. This dancer has serious muscle isolation ability and is moving Yellow Human-Blue Hand and Yellow Star-Blue Monkey. The attributes of those tribes GROUNDED humans into the body and helped us reproduce successfully. We had to bring that back after the Tiamat blowup.
Analog is 13Asparagine or Blue 13 Cosmic Monkey and pulses to the LEFT thigh, low back and buttock and genital area down to the knee.
Guide Power is 13Glutamic Acid or Yellow 13 Cosmic Human. This pulses to the left abdomen from the navel down to the top of the thigh.
Antipode is 13Tyrosine of White 13 Cosmic Mirror. This pulses to the LEFT EYE.
Hidden Wisdom is 1Glutamine or Red 1 Magnetic Skywalker. This pulses to the LEFT thorax or rib cage down to the top of the navel.
Notice all the energy flow on the left, female side of the body as counterpoint to Yellow Star which is on the right.
Earth Holon
Yellow Star is mediated by Venus and the Time Portal is off the west coast of S. America at 30 degrees south 50 degrees west. This is a SIGNAL KIN and is located at the solar plexus of the planet (the navel, belly dancing) and it's job is to receive signals from the cosmic web. I believe Easter Island is in this portal area!
Interplanetary Holon
This is perfect synchronicity aa today's New Moon is in Leo starting at 8pm and we start a new 13-day cycle tonight at midnight with Red 1 Magnetic Moon ending with Red 13 Dragon. That means we are initiating a new DNA sequence with the Start Codon Methionine.
The New Moon in Leo pulses with the SUN or Yellow Sun that pulses to the right brain on the male side of the body because Leo is ruled by the sun. Red Moon (the new 13-day cycle) pulses to the right foot AND the right ankle joint pulses with Tone 1 so more synchronicity with the body. That's the mission here folks. We're evolving our bodies forward and taking charge of our planet.

Charles Strother became the 41st president of the ASNR on April 30, 2003, when the gavel passed from Pat Turski to Charlie at the annual business meeting. This new leadership in the society is significant because now the ASNR has as its leader the first "pure" neurointerventionalist. Charlie's presidency occurs at a crucial time for the society and for neuroradiology, because there is a clear necessity for all interest areas of the discipline to work together for the betterment of the whole. This is a principal strongly espoused by Charlie Strother.
The story of Charlie's rise to a leadership role within organized radiology is one of persistence, making the most out of small opportunities, and bettering oneself along the way. Born in McKinney, Texas, to John and Ola Strother, Charlie was one of two children. Following high school, he had a peripatetic college career, attending in succession Texas Christian University, Texas Wesleyan University, and, finally, North Texas State University, in Denton. Never was medicine in his sights as a career during his undergraduate days; however, to support himself through college, he held a job at the John Peter Smith Hospital, in Fort Worth, beginning his career by washing glassware, including urine bottles. He quickly moved up in the hospital ranks, first performing all urinalysis tests and then becoming the night laboratory supervisor—of a crew of one. Not only did he then begin to develop a deep interest in medicine, but he was also encouraged greatly by Dr. May Owen, a pathologist at that hospital who strongly suggested that he pursue a career in medicine. In 1963 Charlie was accepted to the one medical school to which he applied, the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, where he was an extremely successful medical student. He was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha as a junior and graduated with high honors in 1967. While a medical student, he rotated to Boston City Hospital for an elective in hematology at the Thorndike Metabolic Laboratory, thus spurring his interest in internal medicine. Subsequently, he served his internship year in internal medicine at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and during that year he met his wife to be, Elizabeth, whose brother happened to be a neurosurgery resident at Stanford University. Through that influence and his contact with patients with neurologic disease while an intern, Charlie's interest turned to the clinical neurologic sciences.
In those times, military service was obligatory for all able-bodied men, and Charlie took the advice of an acquaintance in Wisconsin who, after he was drafted into the army with an initial assignment to serve in a recruit induction station, suggested that he try to get reassigned as a physician in the "Special Forces," which, according to his sagacious friend, would allow him to work closely with division-level army athletic teams. This friend had confused "Special Services" with "Special Forces," so Charlie, not knowing what was ahead of him, requested this assignment. The reality of that misinterpretation became quickly clear the day he reported for duty at Fort Benning, Georgia; however, it was in retrospect for Charlie a fortunate mistake. Two years with the Special Forces in Panama and environs was an experience that to this day he fondly remembers.
Following his 2-year tour of duty, Charlie entered the residency program in neurology at Stanford, in 1970, but it did not take him long to see the developing influence of neuroimaging in neurology. It was then that he decided to pursue a career in neuroradiology. After completing his neurology residency, Charlie entered the radiology training program at Stanford and, after 2 years in general radiology, was able to spend two additional years as a neuroradiology fellow, splitting his time between Stanford and the University of California, San Francisco. During his fellowship, Hans Newton particularly impressed Charlie with his efficiency and seemingly effortless ability to simultaneously accomplish many tasks so well. In fact, Hans encouraged Charlie to spend 4 months with Georges Salamon in Marseilles to study neurovascular anatomy, and it was during that interval that Charlie coauthored two chapters for the classic textbook, Diagnostic Neuroradiology by Newton and Potts. While in Marseille, he not only learned about anatomy and the beauty of science from Professor Salamon, but also encountered his young associate, Charles Raybaud, who became and remains a close friend.
Joe Sackett, who by 1976 had been an assistant professor at Wisconsin for years, with the help of Dr. John Juhl, recruited Charlie to return to Madison and help build a growing section of neuroradiology. Many important projects began at Wisconsin soon after Charlie became a faculty member there; this included the first American trials using water-soluble contrast medium (Metrizamide) for myelography and, in conjunction with Joe Sackett and Dr. Charles Mistretta and his colleagues in medical physics, developing and investigating the clinical utility of intravenous digital subtraction angiography.
Sensing the bright future that lay ahead for endovascular neuroradiology, Charlie went to Paris in 1978 to learn from Dr. Debrun the technique for making latex detachable balloons. As the field continued to expand with new devices, catheters, and guidewires coming rapidly into use, Charlie was at the forefront of all those advances. His interest and skills in interventional neuroradiology led to a working relationship with Target Therapeutics, where he became chairman of the board before the company was acquired by Boston Scientific.
Always on the lookout for new ideas and new ways of approaching clinical problems, Charlie's sabbatical in 1988 took him to Overluge Ulleval Sykehus in Oslo, Norway, where he worked with a number of Norwegian colleagues—Pydher Elherick, Finn Lillias, Railer Dullard, Johan Johansen, Spran Bokka, Per Naksted— all of whom remain Charlie's close friends and colleagues.
Returning to the University of Wisconsin in 1989, Charlie began to build a strong clinical and teaching program in neurointerventional radiology. His research interests have been and continue to be in device development and delivery, aneurysm hemodynamics, and angiographic techniques, including three-dimensional angiography. Charlie's publications are numerous, and, interestingly, many of his past and present investigations involve animal models for endovascular therapy. It is clear that from this type of basic research that the understanding and the treatment of many of the maladies of the cerebral vasculature are improved.
With a desire to work in a larger clinical service, in the fall of 2002, Charlie moved to the Baylor College of Medicine and the Methodist Hospital in Houston to work with his friend and colleague Mike Mawad. While he greatly misses his dear friends and colleagues at Madison, he enjoys the challenges and opportunities in this new environment.
Charlie and Elizabeth enjoy traveling particularly to uncommon destinations (how many of us have been to Antarctica?), hiking, cross-country skiing, and an occasional round of golf. Despite his new responsibilities as president of the ASNR, and the time-consuming job as one of the four associate editors of the AJNR, outside activities and interests will continue unabated.
At this time in the history of neuroradiology it is more important than ever to bring together the different subspecialty societies within the ASNR, so we may pursue common goals clinically and academically. Charlie understands how well the old adage "In unity there is strength" fits the current situation in medicine and in radiology. He also understands the realities of globalization, the potential for hybridization, and the potential for "tribalism" to become a destructive and inhibiting force.
Promoting increased value to the entire ASNR membership by continued exposure to cutting-edge technology in diagnosis and intervention and strengthening even further the ASNR as a learning organization are Charlie's goals for the upcoming year. With his effective leadership and understated demeanor, Dr. Strother is exactly the right person at the right time to head the ASNR.
