Neil Sedaka was born in 1939 in Brooklyn, New York. As a child, he demonstrated a talent for music, and his working-class parents found the resources to purchase a second-hand piano so that he could begin lessons. The sacrifice paid off, and while still very young, Neil Sedaka earned a piano scholarship to the prestigious Julliard School of Music, in their prep division, designed to train young children for future careers as musicians.
Despite his parents desire that he pursue a career in classical music, Neil Sedaka discovered pop music and instead began to move in that direction. As a teenager, he met Howard Greenfield, and the two began to compose together. They crafted songs for Neil Sedaka's budding music career, and also for dozens of other performers of the time.
Neil Sedaka formed a band with some high school classmates shortly after graduation, and The Tokens enjoyed some hits in the 1950's: "While I Dream", "I Love My Baby", "Come Back, Joe", "Don't Go", and the smash hit "The Lion Sleeps Tonight." Sedaka branched out with a solo career, and the moderately successful songs "Laura Lee", "Ring-a-Rockin'", and "Oh, Delilah!" earned him the recording contract he'd been hoping for.
A string of albums followed for the next few decades, including: Rock with Sedaka (1959), Circulate (1961), Smile (1965), Oh! Carol (1970), Emergence (1971), Solitaire (1972), Laughter in the Rain (1974), The Hungry Years (1975), Let's Go Steady Again (1976), Steppin' Out (1976), Neil Sedaka's Greatest Hits (1977), and All You Need is the Music (1978.) Featured hits from Sedaka during this time include: "Oh! Carol" (1960), "Calendar Girl" (1961), "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" (1962), and "Laughter in the Rain" (1974.)
Neil Sedaka's recording contract ended in the mid 1980's, but he continued with his own music publishing company to continue the re-releases of many of his classic albums as CDs. In the new millennium, Neil Sedaka re-signed with Razor and Tie Records and released The Definitive Collection in 2007. It became one of the highest-charting albums of Sedaka's career, entering the charts at number twenty-five. Waking Up is Hard to Do came next in 2009, and featured many of Neil Sedaka's classic hits with new lyrics, geared toward young children. The Music of My Life followed in 2010, and featured all new material, including the singles "Right or Wrong," "You," and "Do You Remember."
Neil Sedaka continues to perform and record. In 2016, he performed to a sold-out audience in the Florida retirement community known as The Villages. In the year prior, he was featured on Steve Tyrell's 2015 album That Lovin' Feeling; the two musicians sang a duet version of "Laughter in the Rain."

Maybe eventually they will find their way out of the boxes and closets...just in time for Dec 24th, Christmas Eve...
She did get a pic of me with a tie on...sheesh!
So that will be my selfie and be incorporated into my E-Card.
She did E-Mail this out to as many furry pals as she could find, we hope you got one...if you want your own you can 'grab' it from here, or send me your E-mail address and I shall get you your furry own! (My apawlogies if you were ovfurlooked...drop me a note as per above and I will get you a card out!)
Growlmy is so furry tech challenged, some of you may have gotten two cards, BOL!!

Since this is also Selfie Sunday, here is the original picture of me in that new tie...watching out of the sunny window to snoopervise the neighbor's building project.
That naughty invisible visited here whilst my peeps were gone to Church this morning...Not Me was quite busy, and while I was able to witness it, am told I am party to the crime because I didn't stop it. What?? I think I shall just leave it at Not-Me...and anyways, Growlmy always tells me to leave that Not-Me alone, BOL! You guessed it, Not me chewed up yet another cord...the one to meowmy's I-Pad.

Preity Zinta to take Ishkq in Paris to PragueFollow us on Social Media
Follow @iamdesirulez
Tweet #iamdesirulez
Preity Zintas debut production venture Ishkq In Paris is almost complete and the makers have even screened the flick for selected preview audiences. However, some portion of the climax is incomplete, but unfortunately shooting further is Paris is not possible.
Here Imtiaz Ali stepped in to solve Preitys dilemma. He suggested that the film should be shot further in Prague. Imtiaz has shot his last film Rockstar in Prague and knows the place very well. He helped the director Prem Raj find the exact location in Prague that would match with the unfinished shooting of the climax in Paris. As such, Tuesday night Zintas crew left for Prague to complete the shooting.
Director Prem Raj confirmed the report saying, Yes, there is a portion of the climax that we couldnt shoot in Paris because we couldnt get the required permission. We tried hard, but in vain. So the film is complete except for one portion. We knew the topography in Prague was similar to France. And since Imtiaz Ali had shot Rockstar in Prague we got Imtiazs team to help us find exactly the location we needed. I think we can shoot in Prague now without anyone guess where Paris ends and Prague begins.

A Never Before Heard Video Featuring Britney Spears Just Leaked Online. And It's Horrific.
Auto tune is a subtle thing that can vastly improve the quality of a song, and everyone uses it. If you think your favorite singers aren't recording with auto tune, you're dead wrong. Talented singers usually only need a little bit of auto tuning to perfect their songs. Others…well let's just say that they wouldn't have a career if it was just their natural singing ability. The downside of needing to rely on auto tune is that these singers probably live in mortal fear of someone getting a hold of the "natural" versions of their songs. That's exactly what happened to pop music powerhouse Britney Spears. On July 2 a leaked version of her 2013 song "Alien" surfaced online. It looks like Spears may not be the singer we all thought she was. Without auto tune she sounds god awful. The track's producer says that the leaked version is just a vocal warm up. Here's a comparison to the album version of the track. What do you think?
Our reaction exactly
Wow, my ears hurt now. Yours too? Sooth them with these 10 things that we've scientifically proven are more pleasant to hear than the un-auto tuned Britney Spears. 1.) Dial Up Internet
2.) A Dentist's Drill
3.) The Sound Of Jackhammers
4.) Squeaky Chalk On A Blackboard
5.) Cats Meowing
6.) Arnold Schwarzenegger Screaming
7.) Vuvuzelas
8.) The Wilhelm Scream
9.) This Girl's Laugh
10.) The Original Most Annoying Sound In the World
Basically, auto tune is magical and Britney Spears needs some singing lessons. Encourage an appreciation for auto tune by clicking below to share this story.

Arguments for the Existence of God: Cosmological
People often wonder, "Why are we here?" Not just why are we here in this canyon, but why are we here, in this universe? How did everything come to be? The question pops up most famously in the form of an argument for the existence of God known as the "First Cause" argument.
The argument goes like this:
- Everything that exists must have a cause.
- If you follow the chain of events backwards through time, it cannot go back infinitely, so eventually you arrive at the first cause.
- This cause must, itself, be uncaused.
- But nothing can exist without a cause, except for God.
- Therefore, God exists.
So, basically, you assume that everything that exists in the world was caused by something (even the things that caused the other things). If you could trace this chain of causation backwards through time, you would see that it can't go back forever. It all had to have started somewhere. Something must have caused everything to begin with. Theists cause this something "God".
There are a number of problems with this argument.
- Why can't something have existed forever?
I have yet to hear a good reason why something can't have existed forever. Who's to say there isn't an infinite chain of causes and effects stretching backwards in time? Just because we have a problem imagining infinity, we're going to say it's impossible?
The Big Bang theory is often brought up by theists to try to back up the premise that the universe had a beginning. This is not what the theory says, however. It says there was a gigantic explosion. Scientists don't know what happened before the big bang because all the evidence was erased in the explosion. Anything could have been around before then. We just don't know.
- Who created God?
Who created God? Was there another God that created the God of our universe? Are there an infinite number of Gods creating Gods? And if God doesn't need to have a creator, why the hell not? How come he gets to be the exception to rule #1? If there can be a thing that doesn't need a cause to exist, why not just let the universe be that thing?
- Who's to say this first cause was a God?
Maybe the first cause was an unintelligent phenomenon? Maybe it was something we're unaware of but doesn't listen to our thoughts at all? Maybe it's not omnipotent after all? Why assume omnipotence and all-powerful intelligence?
We're trying to explain the complexity of the universe, and this just adds even more complexity that would need to be explained. Where did this God come from? What is it made of? Where does it reside? How did it come to be? If the first cause was just a speck of dust, does it still deserve to be worshipped?
All the first cause argument does is push the questions up one level into a region where we're comfortable not knowing the answers. To be fair, I don't think anyone actually believes in God because of this argument. I think they believe because they want to believe. This is just what people come up with when they try to use reason to defend their faith.

"Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist."
– Stephen Hawking in "The Grand Design"
"As recent advances in cosmology suggest, the laws of gravity and quantum theory allow universes to appear spontaneously from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going."
– Stephen Hawking in the same book.
Here three questions can be asked:
1) Which one came first, universe, or laws of gravity and quantum theory?
2) If the universe came first, then how was there spontaneous creation without the laws of gravity and quantum theory?
3) If the laws of gravity and quantum theory came first, then Hawking has merely substituted God with quantum theory and laws of gravity. These two together can be called Hawking's "Unconscious God". Therefore we can legitimately ask the question: Who, or what, created Hawking's unconscious God?

Swan Song Short Film
Hey! So this is a still from the animated short "Swan Song", which I got to work on in early 2013! In the short I animated the cat and did some color work too. It is my friend Ashley Armstrong's senior thesis short film, and she hopes to enter it in some film festivals soon! The short now has a Facebook page and if you would feel so inclined you can show your support by liking the page! We would all be eternally grateful if you did! Thanks :)
Digital Painting: What I Wore 12.17.13
Sketches: Partners
Digital Painting: Wolf
So for a long time I've been unhappy with the way I color things. I'm ok with my sketchy stuff, and my really "finished" stuff. But to color something fast, and simple, kind of in between sketchy and finished, I just didn't really have a default way of doing things. So I started exploring and I tried to figure out what I liked and didn't like. Here's what I started with:
I like these pieces, but really I didn't enjoy doing things this way. Especially with the first 2 pieces. While I love the way they turned out, the line work and the flat colors was just too much work and too rigid and too boring. So I moved on.
I really liked doing these two images. I gravitated towards different brushes in Photoshop and played around with texture. I really like this direction and have been doing more work like this. But things have really been changing for me lately artistically and nothing is set in stone. For now I'm just enjoying the ride and seeing where these changes take me.
Wizarding Wednesday
Wizarding Wednesday is a Tumblr blog that tells people what the weekly Harry Potter related subject matter will be and people make their art accordingly. Then the WW blog reblogs your drawing! And it's just that easy. It's really fun, and I've been doing it. Because of the holidays I lost track of it, but I'm going to get back on the bandwagon next week. Here are what I've submitted to wizarding wednesday so far:

Info concerning Appalachian State University water polo, and registering for elective seminars and discussion sections. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. College coaches are more interested in players who already know about their team and college, so do your research before visiting a college campus in person. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Appalachian State University Water Polo information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Appalachian State University.
You don't have to quarterback the university football team to a state championship to earn an athletic scholarship. Most major sports that field a team in intercollegiate competition have sports scholarships available. From women's gymnastics to men's track and field, coaches are seeking players to build a team around. Further, that leadership role often is accompanied by a full-scholarship.
The best time to begin searching for scholarships is before your senior year, in order to meet deadlines. Schools confirm that it is important to file financial aid forms such as the CSS Profile early in the school year. There are many sports scholarships that focus on less tangible qualities, such as the ability to lead a team, motivate others, and learn new skills rapidly. Take stock of your athletic abilities as you mature through high school. Students must meet specific eligibility requirements each year to participate in State Fair Community College football depth chart. Beyond consideration for Appalachian State University water polo, you may think about Felician College exam schedule for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

TV Ratings: 'Big Bang Theory,' 'Grey's Anatomy' and 'Person of Interest' are Thursday standouts
Around The Web
Join The Discussion: Log In With
By: John09.28.2012 @ 4:50 PM
I'm wondering how much of an impact the NFL preemptions actually impacted the NBC numbers. If you'll bear with me I'd like to do some quick back of the envelope estimations. I think this calc is mostly sound, but I'm no expert.
Baltimore and Cleveland metro areas account for roughly 2.5% of total TV households. Let's assume that's the same for the demo, so they have 2.5 ratings points to put to use in the demo. Sunday night football for NBC delivered a 6.4 demo rating (albeit against the Emmys). People in Baltimore and Cleveland do indeed like their football, so let's say locally it got triple the demo rating for SNF, which would be a 19.2. So if you take 19.2% of their 2.5 national points, that results in a 0.48 demo rating influence. While that would certainly drop SNL and Up All Night way down, it doesn't look quite as dire for The Office and Parks in comparison to last week.
By: dan09.28.2012 @ 4:54 PM
John – Ack! That hurt my head. I may do ratings every morning, but I hate math. I would say, however, that nothing there appears to be inherently wrong!
By: Liz09.28.2012 @ 5:43 PM
So if Elementary has an average of 3.1, their first half hour must have been a 3.3 (and their second a 2.9), meaning that it grew a decent amount out of Person of Interest, right? Not bad for a 10pm show.
By: dan09.28.2012 @ 6:42 PM
Liz – Honestly, I think CBS hoped for a bit better from "Two and a Half Men" and a bit better from "Person of Interest" and I think "Elementary" came in right around expectations, so all's probably well assuming there isn't a huge drop-off next week…
By: Dan332009.28.2012 @ 6:35 PM
Dan – what's the consensus on the numbers for Last Resort – good, bad, or meh? Love the show and would hate to see it struggle ratings-wise, based primarily on the horrendous time slot. Thanks!
By: dan09.28.2012 @ 6:45 PM
Dan3320 – Too early to tell. ABC teased the pilot early online and they're gonna reair the pilot tonight, I think. So a lot will depend on next week. If the numbers stay 100 percent identical? ABC'll be perfectly satisfied with that. It won't be a hit, but that'll be OK. Then again, as the story says, "Charlie's Angels" premiered last fall to *almost* identical numbers and was gone within two months because people tuned out immediately. Obviously, "Last Resort" is much, much better than "Charlie's Angels." But we'll see what the drop looks like next week. For now? These numbers aren't awful. So that's something…
By: Stormshadow4life09.28.2012 @ 11:56 PM
so that's a potential bummer. This was pretty much the only new drama I had any interest in…I'll continue to record it, but I'm not watching it until its future is a little more secure.
By: Eric Quintern09.28.2012 @ 10:38 PM
Was moving Glee to Thursdays a bad move by fox based on those numbers? And do you see them declining more in the coming weeks.
By: dan09.28.2012 @ 10:43 PM
Eric – Ratings for "Glee" were declining regardless of what FOX did with it and I suspect that, yes, the numbers have a little bit more declining to come. But not that much more. Leaving it on Tuesday to get clobbered wasn't helping and it seemed reasonable that it would be a good pairing with "X Factor" and that nothing else would be nearly as good a pairing.
I think "Glee" has one more season left in it after this one, which probably isn't bad by Ryan Murphy burn-out standards. The only question is if FOX decides the post-Idol real estate in the spring is too valuable to waste on "Glee," but the network doesn't really have anything else to logically go there…

Eton has substantial financial provision designed to widen access to the school by enabling boys to come to the school who could not otherwise do so, and to allow boys to remain in the event of a change in family circumstances. No parents with a talented boy should feel that Eton is necessarily beyond their means but should be aware that the school does not have sufficient funds to satisfy all requests and currently only one in three applications is successful.
Awards are subject to a detailed means test. The best time to submit a financial assessment form is immediately after a boy has been awarded a conditional place, but the Fees and Bursaries Accountant can give provisional feedback on an earlier enquiry.
The Tutor for Admissions is happy to advise further in this area.

An Example of Social Change – Sand Art
Society is often slow to understand social change.
When considering how much society is able to change, we study history. Please review this video to see just how important it is to understand History and how it engulfs society.
Why – Because if we do not stop and listen to what is going on, the leaders will lead..where they lead is up to them, unless you, society mandate the society you want.

"In August of 1941, more than 23,000 Hungarian Jews are murdered by the Gestapo in occupied Ukraine.
All told, more than 600,000 Jews had been murdered in Ukraine by war's end.
I believe Miss Simonova's drawings were in remembrance of that time – and her representation is an amazing experience in how social change affected the quiet Jews, the silent politicians, the laid back politicians and the general population.

Why all the fighting, rhetoric and misunderstanding over Education?
I recently read an article from a parent who was so upset with public education that she is choosing to remove her child from the public system and into the private school system. I was then guided toward a Ted Talk from a local teacher who spent 20 minutes describing to an audience of his current career. Although these are just two examples, there are many more like these that are available for the public to see. Sadly it has taken 15 years for people to speak out. Whether the people speaking out are teachers, parents and even some media outlets, they are all now just realizing that the reason for their anger is because of a well-orchestrated model for profit and competition to destroy the public acceptance of the public education system.
The Definition of Competition states "the person or people with whom one is competing, especially in a commercial or sporting arena; the opposition".
When considering the ideology of education, in 2014 the idea of competition has become prevalent. The American society is developed around the concept of winning. Often winning at all costs without consideration of the consequences or ultimately the devastation that may be left in the wake.
Within the American culture, this mindset has found success in most every environment yet is winning at all costs the best model for the future of success as the culture matures. In 2014, society is developing a new renaissance. The political landscape over the past 15 years has seen a see saw swing of ideologies, with several ideological changes occurring. Some of these changes are inevitable, others are being changed by force.
Considering competition and the idea of forcing a societal change, I have noted the field of education has come under attack. Several Education specialists arrived and shared with politicians that they could develop a model of change which can bring the United States toward the number educational country in the world. To do this, these people needed to develop a business model to show that their model was working. The problem with a business model in education is the product that is being developed. The product is not deficient, it just not fit into every box that the specialists and politicians desire of it. The product is alive, ever moving and at times, does not have the aptitude necessary for a standardized model.
In the modern environment, the corporate sector has convinced people that the public schools are all a failure. Articles flow with every teacher error yet they ignore that the alternatives to public education do not add up. The private school system is not equal to the public system. The charter system is far more private, yet is funded with public money. With this charter mentality, the school is not designed to care for all students, rather they focus on their desired population. In order to sell this model to the people, the specialists and politicians attacked the public school system. Teachers were blamed, new school grading systems were created and when all else failed, funds were withheld. Rather than grow a product to compete with the American competition, specialists and politician's focused on developing an internal destruction of a public model, to recreate their desired tax paid private system.
So why destroy one model on the hopes of creating a new one. The reason is that other nations are providing better results than the USA and as a country the USA does not like to ever lose. As for the results of the public school destruction, it has not yet been a successful fight.
The reason is that the politicians wanted to setup a system in which every child is monitored through standardized tests. These tests would be administered and then students could be held accountable, along with their teacher. The issue that arrived – each State administered its own test an explained its own results.
The reality at the beginning was that Students were failures. Approximately 50% of students failed the tests. Remedial classes were needed since the United States does not lose. Each child would succeed, would graduate high school and be ready for the success of life.
This ideology was elitist, yet, when dealing with politicians and specialists, elite is often the expectation. In the past 15 years the American society has developed tests in each State, systems to teach remedial classes so students can pass these tests, systems to find a way for each student to graduate and in some States classes such as AP have become open to ever student as they are part of school grades.
On the surface each of these aspects is a positive direction within education, yet the goal of these additions is to survive the political change. In the 1960's the same percentage of students were not reading at grade level as we have today in 2014.
Although the problem is systemic and I agree society needs to find a system capable of changing the reading on grade level ability, along with the math on grade level – the American model needs help from home and community. With the mindset of community, are politicians willing to invest in after school programs and community programs – rather than add funds to for-profit charter schools?
As the process of competition evolves, along comes Common Core. I agree with the primary concept of Common Core. The idea is that the foundation (standards) of education will be the same in every state. The content Standards will still be State focused, yet will also include some national standards. At the end of each year students will take a test which covers, English, Math, Science and Social Science and then the Data will be utilized to compare how each State is doing. So why the push back. The reality is that people do not want to think of themselves as failures. They also don't want to see the reality of where their State ranks or if their students are less successful than other States. Rather than admit there is a problem, politicians and specialists operate with other groups to attack the program they created. They are now against Common Core as they realize that creating the competition won't work in their favor. It may also backfire as foreign countries may be seen as creating a superior product.
Today, in 2014, the environment of education is doing more to harm students with their (USA) need to be the best than they are actually teaching them for the future. The ability to teach critical thinking, development understanding and or simply just the enjoyment of learning is gone. The model today is to test a student for pre-knowledge to know how much more testing is needed until the actual test which arrives 8-10 months after the process begins. Sometimes prior knowledge helps, most often it does now. Business models test products, keeping the ones that work and removing the ones that don't. The field of education is trying to do the same now. Yet, in business the person who creates a product gets to redo their errors, whereas in teaching, politicians are asking to remove teachers who fail students, regardless of why they fail. The American system needs a proper professional direction for education.
Go ahead and allow common core to evolve and let the States Compete. Rather than use the data to force remedial classes and teachers into punitive punishment, use the information for professional development, student development and perhaps community enhancement. Allow for remedial classes to be there for students, yet guide those students to also have extra attention in school and after school.
The politicians need to let the leaders of education develop a proper model for future growth. The leaders of education need to allow professional teachers create a proper, working system. The system needs to be allowed to develop. This is the same country that developed intelligent enough people to fly to the moon, create the car, personal computer, internet and quite frankly everything amazing. Where is that education and passion for learning coming from today.
Competition is one of the greatest gifts given to the human being. It is also a system of greed, abuse and neglect if it is allowed to be that way.
Modern leaders need to deconstruct the model, decide how they want to compete, and then reconstruct the model in that way. Then they need to let it breathe for a period of time rather than continuing to attack. The system needs to find a way to exist in the system of competition that will be created.
Thank you for reading my thoughts.

This past Sunday I went with a couple of girlfriends for a catch-up brunch to Tableau Bar Bistro in the Loden Hotel. It's located on Melville Street at the edge of Coal Harbour in downtown Vancouver, and is a French bistro-style restaurant that has been open for not quite two months yet – since May 6th of this year. (Note: Above image courtesy of 604Foodtograpy.)
We were seated on the patio, in anticipation of basking in the sun's rays. We had to wait about 15 minutes until we were covered in warmth as we waited for the sun to peak out from behind the nearby buildings, but once it did, we were super content and could've relaxed there all day.
While we settled in with our coffee and waters, we browsed over the menu and got to chatting. It was good that it didn't take me long to decide what to have, as our conversation was loud and exuberant and I'm sure that everyone on the patio couldn't help but take part in it.
Les ouefs jumped out at me the most, and it had been awhile since I'd had any (strange for me, but true). One of my friends and I both saw two dishes that we wanted at the same time, and decided to just have them both and share. It couldn't have worked out any better!
A little while later, our server came to us with our meals, and I was ecstatic to see them arrive as I was ravenous and hadn't eaten anything yet after being up for hours. Plus, I had been sailing in the Easter Seals' Regatta the previous day, and after the race, had finished off a bottle of wine and thought it would be a good idea to go for an impromptu swim in the 72 degree Fahrenheit muddy ocean water (don't try this at home, kids). As a result, I had definitely worked up an appetite!
First off was the Omelet, with provencal vegetables and goat cheese and a side of cubed fresh watermelon and mint. These veggies included mushrooms, zucchini, onions, and tomato. While I didn't try this and can't deliver a verdict myself, my girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed it, as her plate was completely gone by the end of the meal and this isn't normally the case!
Next up was the Poached Egg and Duck, a duck confit hash with eggplant and tomato caponata. We had requested the egg to be poached soft, which it was, and it was a good blend of flavours. I did notice that it was lacking a bit of kick to it somehow though, and I would've liked to have seen a bit more salt or some spice even (although when do I NOT like spice).
Finally, we shared the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and pickled red onion. There are two other choices – the florentine and one with shaved beef brisket – which I will also have to try on my next visit, but I really enjoyed what we selected that afternoon. Again, this was also served with a side of watermelon and mint, which I absolutely love (one of my favourite smoothies I ever had while traveling through Thailand was made up of this combination). Again, the eggs were poached soft, and the hollandaise was not overbearing to the wild salmon.

I really enjoyed my patio weekend brunch while sitting in the sunshine at Tableau Bar Bistro. Great friends, great conversation, and great food (with sunshine in Vancouver, no less) – what more can a girl ask for?

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – Authorities say the driver of a tractor-trailer that tumbled off Interstate-75 on Wednesday morning survived the horrible accident, which knocked the cab completely off its trailer.
The Florida Highway Patrol tells News Channel 8 the crash happened around 6:45 Wednesday morning.
Investigators believe someone cut off the semi as it was traveling north on I-75. This sent the truck tumbling onto Fowler Avenue below.
The carrying recycled metals was traveling north on I-75 when troopers believe a driver could have cut the truck off, sending it tumbling down onto Fowler Avenue below.
The tractor-trailer was hauling recycled materials. Its driver, 49-year-old Samuel R. Colon of Zephyrhills, was taken to Florida Hospital.
Fletcher is in serious, but stable condition. FHP investigators believe it truly is a miracle he is still alive.
"It very seriously could have left him or another passing motorist underneath…struck, injured, killed, so of course, we are very fortunate that no other motorists on Fowler Avenue were struck," said Sgt. Steve Gaskins with Florida Highway Patrol.
Workers with the Department of Transportation were also on scene to check on the integrity of the overpass bridge that the tractor-trailer struck.
Anyone with information on the vehicle or the driver that cut the trailer off is asked to give Florida Highway Patrol a call at (813) 631-4020.

This ice cream made all from fruit is a great way to have dessert and stick with your health goals too! The peach and strawberry flavors blend perfectly and they taste like summer!
Do you struggle with sticking to a healthy diet? Here are some tips:
You have to allow yourself to start with small changes. No one starts off being excellent. Just choose one thing that seems doable to you and do that!
Maybe you think you could start dinner every night with a green salad, and then eat normally for the rest of the meal.
Maybe you could start every morning with a green smoothie, then eat normally for the rest of the day.
Could you make one day a week meatless/vegetarian or make one meal a day be only raw fruits and vegetables? Try it a few times and see!
Here's an idea: you could replace your nightly gigantic bowl of ice cream (who, me?) with this cold, creamy, HEALTHY strawberry peach nicecream (banana ice cream).
Whatever healthy choices you can live with for the long term, commit to it and don't give up! You can always build on those choices later when you're ready. I have compiled a list of things that have helped me immensely in sticking with my goals, here and here.
And now, the moment you've been waiting for: the recipe!
summertime strawberry peach ice cream
- 2 frozen bananas, in chunks
- 1 peach, peeled
- 4-5 strawberries
- sweetener of your choice (stevia, coconut sugar, Medjool dates, etc)
- dash of cinnamon, optional
Blend everything in a high-speed blender or a bullet blender. Sometimes my bullet blender has trouble, and I have to add some almond milk or water to thin it. Just make sure you don't add too much, or it'll turn into a smoothie!
If you're having trouble blending, you could instead just let your frozen bananas thaw for about 15 minutes and cut them into smaller chunks.
I'd love to hear about the healthy choices you're making! Comment below or email me any time.

One For Arthur was ridden to a 41/2-length victory by Derek Fox, who had only been passed fit to ride on Monday after breaking a wrist and a collarbone in a fall nearly exactly a month ago.
Cause of Causes, under amateur Jamie Codd, managed to hold off the fast charging Saint Are, runner-up in 2015, whilst the favourite Blaklion was fourth giving the oldest jockey in the race, 41-year-old Noel Fehily, his first finish in the top four in 15 rides.
Hundreds of well-wishers flocked to the stables of Grand National-winning trainer Lucinda Russell to congratulate her on her famous win and see the victorious horse, One For Arthur.
"I'm going to take my goggles off and throw them into the crowd because it's the only thing I've ever wanted to do", the English jockey told The Times.
The eight-year-old horse is trained by the partner of Peter Scudamore, a former eight-time champion jockey who never won the grueling race in 12 attempts in the saddle.
The 14-1 shot was only the second-ever Scottish-trained victor of the world's most famous steeplechase, after Rubstic in 1979.
All 40 horses returned home in one piece with 19 combinations completing the race.
Deborah, from Gullane, East Lothian said: "I just can't believe it".
The word "team" is heard nearly as much as "Arthur" (as everyone calls him), and Russell stresses how important that ethos is, saying: "I'm getting all this publicity and I've got a nice new jacket that says winning trainer on it".
Israel shuts Egypt border crossing following terror warning
The closure will remain in effect until April 18, the day after the end of the Passover holiday. Israeli authorities warned of "increased activity by Islamic State militants" in Sinai.
"I just can't believe we've won the Grand National - it's fantastic".
"It has been a long time since we have celebrated a Scottish victor and although it has cost us a fortune, we couldn't be more happy for Lucinda Russell".
If it seems miraculous, then those working the miracle are all employed at the Injured Jockeys' Fund's northern rehabilitation centre, Jack Berry House.
He's improved every time.
Owner JP McManus let him keep the ride in Saturday's Aintree spectacular and Codd did not let him down, enjoying a fantastic first ride in the race by finishing a clear second behind One For Arthur.
"It was an wonderful day and a unbelievable experience for me as an amateur". I kept thinking barring accidents, he would win the National and he has.
"This is a fairy tale but for excellent medical care I wouldn't have made it", said Fox, 24. Arthur just cruised that race.
"He's given us a fantastic journey".

Thank you compost
Half way through the month and I thought I best cross off a job from my to-do list. Turn the compost. Firstly I had to remove some weeds. If you can call chickweed and volunteer broad beans weeds. The chickens don't call them weeds at any rate.
I'm glad I got this job done today. I found a pumpkin hiding amongst the 'weeds' . Thank you compost heap, what a nice surprise.

I haven't had a pumpkin like that, it looks good and I guess will eventually change color.

Formaldehyde: Training on the hazards of formaldehyde in the workplace
Although formaldehyde exists as a gas, most use is with formalin where formaldehyde is mixed with water. However formaldehyde gas is emitted out of the formalin solution and levels can exceed permissible limits in unventilated rooms or areas. It can also be found in a powder form called "paraformaldehyde." Formaldehyde is sometimes called "methaldehyde."

On Thursday's Snooki & J-Woww, the girls ditch Jersey City for a chance to relive their nonexistent college days by partying it up in Cancun. Of course, with a pregnant Nicole in tow, this trip will be anything but easy. "I'm not sure pregnancy is supposed to be a handicap," Jenni sniffs. But we're getting ahead of ourselves.
It's 6am, and time for the girls' flight to Cancun. As they're gathering their things, Jenni notices her feet tanned in the worst way: It's a sock tan. Come on, Jenni. You have a tanning booth in your house, and you still can't get this right?
In a blink of an eye, Jenni, Rider, and Nicole are magically transformed to Cancun. At their hotel, they have a deep discussion about whether or not Cancun is tropical and if it's an island or not. Do you think they even know they're still in North America?
The lights in the bathroom go off while Jenni's in the shower trying to shave her lady business, so Rider spends forever trying to figure out what switch goes to the bathroom. Jenni eventually finds the light, and in their interview together, she and Nicole discussing peeing. Today is Nicole's "preggers day," meaning the girls will be doing pregnant-friendly activities like going to the zoo and eating and relaxing on the beach. Nicole feels insecure showing her body on the beach, so she mopes around in her cover-up while the other girls take tequila shots together. When they finally do go on their way to the zoo, Jenni buys crocodile hats at the hotel gift shop. They stop back at the room and get dressed, and Nicole grabs her stuffed crocodile Crocodilly to introduce him to his "cousins" because, as Jenni puts it, "That's what 10-year-olds do."
At the zoo, the group is startled to see little monkeys roaming freely throughout the place. Crocodilly in hand, Nicole and her giant furry boots tries to stay out of the monkeys' way — as well as away from the dozens of deer and various other animals charging towards her.
At dinner, the girls go to an outdoor restaurant where people are dancing with batons on fire. Jenni asks if you can get tan from fire, and Nicole gives a surprisingly scientific explanation about one can actually acquire a tan.
The girls go out to a club, although Nicole never said she wanted to go there. She's bored, having to be sober while everyone is drinking and dancing. The girls have to use the bathroom, so Nicole is left alone. While they're gone, a fight breaks out in the room. Nicole hangs back and waits for it to end. Finally, the girls arrive back and they all flee to their room.
The next morning, the foursome go swimming with the dolphins. It makes Nicole feel better about the night before, but the mood soon goes south when they return to the room. Jenni asks for a bottle of Absolut to be sent up before they go out clubbing, and Nicole gets irritated because she can't partay with them. She gets sassy with the other girls while she's getting ready, and then when she walks to the elevator, and then at dinner. While the others order drinks, Nicole whips out her phone and doesn't take her eyes off it for the rest of dinner. Although yesterday was Nicole's preggers day, it's time for Jenni to have fun. Nicole says she's not going out and Jenni doesn't ask why.
As Jenni and Rider are heading out the door, it looks like Nicole is packing her things back into her suitcase. Either Jenni doesn't notice or she doesn't care, but this does not look good.
Next week, we see Nicole crying on the phone about how she doesn't want to live with Jenni anymore. To make matters worse for her, she starts to question her engagement to Jionni. Oh my, we can't saywe didn't see this coming.

In 2012 we opened a game store in the northeast suburbs of the Twin Cities. We were open for four and a half years and had a wonderful time meeting many different types of gamers from all over the city.
We prided ourselves in having a full cafe kitchen where we were able to make food for long RPG sessions or offer quick snacks between rounds in Magic: The Gathering.
Unfortunately, we had to close our doors at the end of 2016 because of rising cost of business. We had met so many wonderful people that we decided to do what we could to keep the community going. That is what we hope this site will do, allow all of us to keep in touch through scheduled events around the cities, and following our reviews and gameplay online.
It may not be a perfect substitute for the brick and mortar store, but we hope it brings you a bit of the happiness we felt every time we saw you these past four and a half years.

Here's an unusual (and creative) storyline treatment.
Some background information from the creator Ben Crowell:
Q: Where did the idea come from?
Crowell: The idea came very randomly when Joel Marsh (co-director) and I were talking about ideas for the festival. The idea started out as something totally different; it was about a man trying to see his newborn child and then through chatting, it evolved into a reversal film and then into the romantic piece that it is now. It just emphasizes the cliche that no idea is a bad idea. The most banal idea has potential to turn into something really beautiful.
Q: How did you go about producing it? (all within 48 hrs?, formality – eg., storyboarding or more freeform? stuff like that)
Crowell: In terms of the film's creation, we really didn't have much time, so we made an idea list and then from that a loose shot list and then we ran out to get it done! It was a ton of fun, very small crew–everyone on camera also worked behind the camera. Our friend Luke Bradford wrote the music after I told him the general feel we were looking for. We were so happy with what he came up with.
Q: You did this on the 5d, correct? What other equipment are you using with that? (audio recorder/mics? camera rigs?)
Crowell: Yes, we used the 5d. Other than that, just a tripod and a paint can tied to a stick for a steady cam. We had some nice sound equipment too, although we ended up taking almost all of the sound out. The music was actually just recorded on a laptop microphone.
Q: You're using the 5d – did you start out as a still guy and move into motion?
Crowell: Honestly, Joel and I have always been movie people. Joel is actually just adding photography to his repertoire now. It's his 5d and he got it specifically for movie making.
Q: How are you finding using a DSLR to make short films?
Crowell: DSLRs are excellent in my opinion. Definitely no complaints, so far. Really good quality and beautiful colors. The microphone could be better, but that's far from a deal-breaker.
Q: What would you regard as "the perfect gear" for making films?
Crowell: Perfect gear would be some lovely 70mm cameras with big lights and the works. More realistically, a Canon DSLR with some solid lenses and good sound equipment are ideal.
Q: The "48 hour Project": How often have you participated? What was the experience like?
Crowell: This is our 4th 48 film. I found out about it from my neighbor and fellow filmmaker Scott Palmer. He had won the Boston 48 and thought it would be something I would enjoy. He was definitely right. It's a great incentive to get people together to make a film without a daunting commitment. It was an excellent experience. Stress-free, fun and exciting. The stunts were tons of fun, although it was a very, very cold day. We finished with about 10 hours to spare as well. We simply had fun, and very talented people all together and that's really the key ingredient to making a decent film. If it's too tense, no one's going to be on their game, so I try to keep it as loose and enjoyable as possible on set. We came out with some fairly wild stories from a really magnificent experience.
