When Miami native Aaron Lebos was a kid, his parents told him to choose between violin and piano. "I chose piano," he says, "obviously." But his big brother played electric guitar, and he wanted to too. He thought it was "cooler." Eventually, he got his hands on a guitar of his own and made his way through jazz studies programs at Miami Dade College, University of Miami and FIU.
His new CD (his third), Aaron Lebos Reality (also the name of his band), is just out, and it's a mix of his influences and experience. Just don't call it fusion. He's not sure why -- he's just been told it's a dirty word in music, and not the way to refer to his or anyone else's he likes.
"Jazz-funk-rock" is OK.
Here's a list of albums Lebos says have influenced his music:
- Metal Fatigue - Allan Holdsworth
- 2 Drink Minimum - Wayne Krantz
- Appetite for Destruction - Guns N' Roses
- Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chili Peppers
- Tore Down House - Scott Henderson
- Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
- Evil Empire - Rage Against the Machine
- Black Codes (from the Underground) - Wynton Marsalis
- The Best of Tears for Fears - Tears for Fears
- The Next Step - Kurt Rosenwinkel
- Phoenix - Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix
- Ifrikya - Karim Ziad
- Band of Gypsys - Jimi Hendrix
Even though some of Lebos' licks and the way he plays around with time-signatures sound very Frank Zappa-esque, there's a reason you don't see Roxy and Elsewhere on this list. "I've barely listened to Frank Zappa at all, " he says, "but it's on my list to do."
Aaron Lebos Reality plays live February 27 at PAX, and March 7 at the Van Dyke Cafe on Lincoln Road in South Beach.
Listen the band's hour-long live performance on South Florida Arts Beat.

About iRescue Club:
Many people harbor a hero within, but often times they hesitate to act in times of disaster due to a lack of skill, fear of liability, or financial cost. This inability of people to take immediate action to help themselves and their vulnerable neighbors is a significant factor in the loss of life and high cost of disaster recovery. iRescue Club was formed to provide channels for Education and Disaster Cash Benefits for ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary feats of rescue and recovery.

NORTHRIDGE, Calif. - Back-to-back 3-pointers by Vincent Cordell and Vinnie McGhee broke a 60-60 tie and Cal State Northridge held on for a 76-69 Big West Conference win over visiting UC Santa Barbara on Saturday night.
The 3-pointers by the Matadors (8-13 overall, 3-5 in the Big West) were the only two they made in the second half, but they made them when they counted the most. The Gauchos (11-8, 6-3), on the other hand attempted a season-high 34 3-pointers, making 10. The loss ended their 3-game winning streak.
"When you go on the road and settle for as many 3-pointers as we took tonight, you're not going to win," said UCSB head coach Bob Williams. "We just didn't show any toughness tonight. Going inside is a toughness thing and tonight we just didn't show any."
The teams played a see-saw first half with each leading by as many as five points. Northridge used a 9-2 run in the final 2:46 to take a 39-37 lead at the break.
The Gauchos missed 10 of their first 12 shots to start the second half and the Matadors assumed a 50-42 lead with 11:20 to play in the game.
The lead was still 60-56 when Northridge's Willie Gallick made one out of two free throws with 4:40 left. A James Nunnally 3-pointer with 4:02 to play got Santa Barbara within one, 60-59. On the other end, a Kenny Daniels lay-up was blocked by Orlando Johnson and Powell came down with the rebound. The ball went into the corner to Nunnally, who made a 3-pointer, but the Matadors' Raymond Cody was whistled for a foul as he fought through a Jaimé Serna screen. The 3-pointer was waved off and, after a timeout, Serna made one out of two free throws to tie the score at 60, setting the stage for the big 3-pointers by Cordell and McGhee.
The Gauchos didn't get closer than five the rest of the way.
UCSB was led by Nunnally who had 21 points and Johnson who had 20 to go with a team-high eight rebounds. Powell added 13. Northridge was led by Willie Galick who had 19 points and a game-high 10 rebounds. The Matadors dominated the Gauchos on the boards, 43-33.
UCSB shot just 33.3% from the field and 29.4% from beyond the 3-point arc. The Matadors made 42.6% overall.
The Gauchos remain on the road for two more, traveling to Pacific for a 7:00 p.m. game on Thursday, Feb. 4 and UC Davis for a 7:00 p.m. game on Saturday, Feb. 6. They return home on Saturday, Feb. 13 for a 4:00 p.m. game against Long Beach State.
The game against the 49ers will be televised by Fox Sports Prime Ticket and will be a "Legends of the Dome" game.
For years, the Gauchos have been exciting crowds in the Thunderdome. Through the years, legends were made in the 'Dome. Now, five former UCSB standouts are being saluted as "Legends of the Dome." The first legendary women's volleyball star, Roberta Gehlke, was unveiled Oct. 19, 2009. The first men's basketball legend, Carrick DeHart, was unveiled on Jan. 23 before a game against Cal State Fullerton. Three other legends will be introduced this year. The second men's hoops legend will be unveiled prior to UCSB's 4:00 p.m. Feb. 13 game against Long Beach State. Women's basketball legends will be honored on Feb. 11 before a 7:00 p.m. game against UC Riverside, and on Feb. 27 before a 2:00 p.m. Blue-Green Rivalry Series game against Cal Poly.

2013 at the Sandz�n Gallery begins with three guest artist exhibitions, along with works from the collections.
2013 at the Sandz�n Gallery begins with three guest artist exhibitions, along with works from the collections.
The shows include Landscapes by Larry Lambert, a show of paintings by Hutchinson artist Larry Lambert; Legacy, an exhibition of prints spanning generations which were collected by Elizabeth Liljegren of Lindsborg; and Soil Secrets, which includes ceramics, sculpture and drawings by gallery curator Ron Michael.
The shows open Tuesday and continue through Feb. 17 with a reception from 2 to 4 p.m. Jan. 13. An exhibit from collections will also feature works by area artists.
The artists
Larry Lambert, a native Kansan, specializes in paintings of rural America. His watercolors are known for their intricate details. He also enjoys painting wildlife scenes, and portraits. Acrylics and pastel chalks are other mediums he uses.
Legacy is an exhibition that spans generations with prints representing teachers as well as students collected by Elizabeth Liljegren. The collection stirs Elizabeth's memories of her teachers and her 37 years as a teacher at McPherson High School.
Sandz�n Gallery curator Ron Michael is also an artist who makes ceramics, sculpture and drawings that are inspired by the landscape, soil and geology of Kansas. Although most are invented forms or images, they reference organisms, objects and remnants that can be seen in this subtle and alluring ecosystem. When creating pieces, he tries to infuse them with a natural weathered aesthetic that is simple, imperfect and asymmetrical.
The Sandz�n Gallery is at 401 N. First St. in Lindsborg. Hours are 1 to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Sundays. The gallery is closed on Mondays. Admission is free, contributions are welcomed. Docent tours for groups are available by two-week advance appointment with the gallery.

DENVER The Legislature is poised to pass a law creating civil unions for gay and lesbian couples today, after a Monday debate in the House.
It was the first time in three years of trying that the civil-unions bill made it to the floor of the House. Last year, Democratic supporters joined with two dissident Republicans to try to force a House vote on the second-to-last day of the session, but Republicans, who held the majority, shut down the House rather than allow a vote.
This weeks result was preordained on Election Day. The election saw Democrats take over the House, bringing with them Colorados first openly gay speaker of the House, Rep. Mark Ferrandino, D-Denver, and three newly elected gay Democrats.
This bill is about three simple things. Its about love, its about family, and its about equality under the law, said Ferrandino, who sponsored the bill this year and last year.
A civil union gives same-sex couples most of the same rights as married couples under state law, but not under federal law.
At least two Republicans say they will support the bill in todays final vote.
But other Republicans spent several hours Monday fighting the bill or trying to send it to the voters for approval.
Republicans pushed unsuccessfully for exemptions for religious people in businesses and adoption agencies and county clerks offices to be able to refuse to serve same-sex couples.
Rep. Lori Saine, R-Dacono, said the bill would force people to violate their deeply held religious beliefs.
What this bill is about, really, is the Bible is it right or wrong? Saine said.
Last years bill contained an exemption for religious adoption agencies. This years has no such exemption.
Ferrandino acknowledged that he included the exemption last year because he was in the minority and needed Republican votes. This year, he has more than enough votes to pass his bill without Republican help, and he said he does not want to allow for discrimination, even by adoption agencies.
Several Democrats exhorted Republicans to be on the right side of history.
Rep. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs, led GOP opposition to civil unions and questions the history argument.
Only history will decide. Only history will judge, Gardner said.
With todays vote and Gov. John Hickenloopers expected signature, Colorado will become the ninth state with a civil unions-style law. Another nine states and the District of Columbia allow same-sex marriage.
Ferrandino said he supports full marriage equality, but voters in 2006 amended the constitution to reserve marriage for heterosexual couples.
For now, until the voters say otherwise, civil unions is the closest we can do in the General Assembly to make sure that all families, gay or straight, have equal protection under the law, Ferrandino said.

CASTINE, Maine -- Senior Barry Reopell (South Dennis, Mass.) rushed for 102 yards and scored a pair of touchdowns as Massachusetts Maritime used three unanswered second half scores to post a 42-23 New England Football Conference Bogan Division victory over Maine Maritime in the 40th Annual Admiral's Cup played Saturday afternoon at Ritchie Field.
The two squads played to a wild 21-21 draw at the break before Reopell's two-yard plunge capped a 12-play, 66-yard second half opening drive that gave the visiting Buccaneers (4-3, 3-2 NEFC Bogan) the lead for good at 27-21. The host Mariners (0-7, 0-5 NEFC Bogan) were in position to tie or take the lead after engineering a 14-play, 71-yard drive that took them to the Massachusetts Maritime 1-yard line, but an ensuing fumble recovered by junior Robert Gratzer (Pembroke, Mass.) enabled the Buccaneers to hold on to the lead, and the visitors capitalized by driving 99 yards on nine plays and using a four-yard touchdown run by sophomore quarterback John Trudel (Niantic, Conn.) to take a 35-21 advantage with 13:04 to play in the contest. Maine Maritime again drove deep into Massachusetts Maritime territory on its ensuing possession, but another Mariner fumble at the Buccaneer 4-yard line was recovered by sophomore Richard Ford (Lynn, Mass.), and after an exchange of possessions, the visitors iced their second straight Admiral's Cup triumph when sophomore Austin Pierce (Peabody, Mass.) scampered in from four yards out with 3:33 remaining.
Maine Maritime jumped out to a quick 7-0 lead when junior Billy Wetherbee (Veazie, Maine) plunged in from a yard out to cap a 12-play, 61-yard drive off the opening kickoff, but Massachusetts Maritime responded with 64-yard drive that Trudel capped with a six-yard run for a 7-6 Mariner lead. Wetherbee's 36-yard touchdown run on the hosts' ensuing possession extended Maine Maritime's lead to 14-6, but Reopell's first scoring run of the day from 28 yards out, coupled with a two-point conversion rush from junior Keith Caruso (Hingham, Mass.), enabled the Buccaneers to forge a 14-14 tie. The Mariners capitalized on a fumbled punt deep inside the visitors' territory to take their final lead of the day at 21-14 on a one-yard touchdown plunge from sophomore quarterback Bradley Reed (Belfast, Maine) with 8:45 remaining in the half, but Massachusetts Maritime answered back on the next play, as sophomore Bobby Rosano (North Reading, Mass.) returned the kickoff 91 yards (the third longest such return in school history) for the tying score just 10 seconds later. Maine Maritime had two chances to take the lead into intermission off a pair of interceptions, but the Mariners were unable to score after driving to the Buccaneer 20, setting up the visitors' second half scoring surge.
Reopell's second 100-plus yard performance in the last three weeks was part of 205 yards on the ground for Massachusetts Maritime, which also received 77 yards from Pierce on the day. Junior quarterback Mike Stanton (Quincy, Mass.) completed 16-of-23 attempts for 202 yards to go over the 2,000 yard mark (2,025) on the season, while Trudel collected 79 yards of total offense to go with his two scores for the Buccaneers, who also received eight catches for 90 yards from sophomore E.J. Bennett (East Wareham, Mass.). Wetherbee rushed for 139 yards on 28 carries to go with his two touchdowns in the setback for Maine Maritime, as Reed completed 5-of-12 attempts for 71 yards for the Mariners, as Massachusetts Maritime outgained the hosts by a 476-349 advantage in total offense for the contest.
Sophomore Reynard Ortiz (Lowell, Mass.) paced the Buccaneers defensively with 13 total tackles (eight solo), while freshman Matthew King (Scituate, Mass.) registered a career-high 12 total tackles (10 solo) to go with a forced fumble and a pass break-up. Sophomore Zachary Ryan (Danvers, Mass.) added nine total stops (seven solo) and a pair of sacks for the winners, who also received interceptions from seniors Eddy Ramos (Sunny Isles, Fla.) and Evan Sheridan (Chelmsford, Mass.). The victory was Massachusetts Maritime's first over the Mariners in Castine since a 15-13 triumph in 2002, as the Buccaneers have claimed the Admiral's Cup in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 2001-2002.
Senior Brock Lawrence (Benton, Maine) paced Maine Maritime defensively with 12 total tackles (10 solo), while the hosts also received 10 total stops (eighty solo) and an interception from junior Alex Hermes (Fallsington, Pa.).
Massachusetts Maritime hosts Westfield State in a New England Football Conference Bogan Division match-up next Saturday afternoon at Clean Harbors Stadium beginning at Noon, while Maine Maritime heads to Bridgewater, Mass. to take on Bridgewater State in an NEFC Bogan Division clash that also kicks off at Noon.

Add to history
Host Howie Mandel brings America another game show, this one based on a popular holiday party game. The first contestant chooses from a studio full of unmarked packages and reveals its contents to the others. The next contestant then must decide whether to take the already opened prize or choose something new, and so it goes until there are only two contestants left. At that point, Howie reveals the contents of the boxes and the players have the option to steal or share. If one player steals, he gets all the prizes, but if both players decide to steal they both go home empty-handed.

Grizzly Bear
Preventing Conflicts with Communities
Grizzly bear mortalities are higher in areas where there is more interaction with people, human-generated food resources, roads and railways. Communities living in grizzly country are faced with conflict when bears are roaming around neighborhoods, down streets and occasionally causing property damage. Our staff works with local residents, tribal, state and federal agencies, non-governmental organizations and numerous other partners to develop and offer the most appropriate site-specific options to reduce problems between grizzly bears and people.
The Problem
Bears are opportunistic omnivores, meaning they will eat a wide variety of foods and will vary their diet depending on what they can find. Unfortunately for a bear wandering near a home or business, this can result in deadly consequences. Unsecured garbage, birdseed, chicken coops, fruit trees, barbecue grills and pet food all lure bears in for an easy meal. Once bears learn where these food resources are, they return and sometimes bring cubs with them. Generations of bears may visit the same site repeatedly for an easy meal. Wildlife management agencies are often faced with lethally removing these bears due to human safety concerns and sometimes landowners take matters into their own hands. Bears that regularly visit these types of areas are sometimes hit and killed by cars while navigating through neighborhoods and across highways.
How We're Helping
In the 1990s, Defenders started a coexistence program to promote and fund projects that reduce conflicts and increase tolerance. One of our most common projects is assisting with the funding for the installation of bear-resistant electric fencing to protect sanitation sites, beehives, chickens, goats and other livestock. Electric fencing is a highly adaptable and effective way to deter bears from accessing these items. Bears that learn they cannot access these tasty treats have a much better chance at survival, and the property and livestock are also protected – everybody wins!
We also assist communities with developing ordinances for attractant storage, purchasing bear-resistant garbage containers, improving tolerance, and providing bear aware outreach materials for residents, websites and other informational resources. We have supported "aversive conditioning," teaching bears to keep their distance from humans, and help campgrounds purchase and install bear-resistant trash cans, bear-resistant food lockers and food hanging poles for backcountry sites. Our field staff also presents numerous outreach and educational programs each year to increase awareness and dispel myths about grizzly bears. All told, we've spent over half a million dollars on our bear-related coexistence efforts since 1998.

I've got a request. Can anybody advise me how to make
English lessons more attractive for high school students who aren't generally very good at learning foreign languages?
Use the textbook minimally. Focus on real communication. Talk about things that mean something. When you walk into the classroom, try to imagine that you don't know their first langauge. Is English your first language? If not, go in with the idea that it is. Try to add more genuine communication to the class. Of course, they'll need a grammar book, but focus on communication first. That might make it more interesting to them.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Find out what they like that comes from countries where English is the first language. Movies? Music? Designer clothing? It could be anything. Use those as topics for the purpose of teaching English. For example, you could talk about a famous actor.
Low Beginner: - Who is he? Where is from? etc..
Moving to higher levels: Bring in a short text that tells about this particular actor. Ask questions about the text. Do they understand all the vocabulary? etc. Use the text to highlight grammar forms if that's possible. Try to get as much out of the text as possible.
I would let them know the benefits of learning English. Many people use English to communicate with people from other parts of the world. English is often a common language. One that knows English is more in touch with the rest of world.
Do they like business? Talk about English as it relates to doing business internationally.
Cultural topics that are interesting to them - This can make it more fun and enjoyable.
Business - This lets them know that it's practical and can really be of use.
International Communication
You could do this, but it will depend on their level.
- Find a way to contact other high school students in a country where English is the first language. Write a class letter. This would be a good class activity. If you do a search somehow, I think you might be able to find out how and where your class can write to other students their own age.

Assemblyman John Ceretto, R-C-I-Lewiston, applauded several pro-job initiatives in Gov. Andrew Cuomo's State of the State address and urged the state's chief executive to focus on rebuilding Western New York's economy in 2013 and beyond.
"Over the past two years, the Legislature and governor have worked closely and in a bipartisan manner to pass several key initiatives to help strengthen Western New York's economy and create good-paying jobs," Ceretto said. "Yet now more than ever, with our economy continuing to underperform, we need to focus like a laser on improving the Empire State's woeful business climate and create lasting employment opportunities for families throughout our region.
"I applaud the governor for focusing on Western New York's economy and I look forward to working with him and my legislative colleagues to promote the region's tourism industry while better utilizing the research and development conducted at our colleges and universities in order to leverage our state's highly trained workforce. These policies, combined with a commitment to hold the line on taxes and reduce energy costs, will help create a more robust economy in Western New York."

While anything resembling your father's pension is unlikely to return, one large company has overhauled its 401(k) plan so workers can receive a paycheck for life.
Like many large employers, United Technologies, based in Hartford, Conn., closed its traditional pension plan to new workers a couple of years ago. The retirement plan that replaced it tries to solve one of the 401(k)'s biggest shortcomings and a thorny problem for retirees: protecting hard-earned savings from a volatile stock market while ensuring the money will never run out.

Tuesday May 3, 2011
Within 12 hours of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge arriving at Westminster Abbey to reveal the widely-anticipated dress, a lookalike version had already been created.
A.B.S. by Allen Schwatz is an American label known for whipping up versions of red carpet gowns for a cut of the price, and in record time.
Their team of 35 people worked together to rapidly create the gown (pictured right) that bears a striking resemblance to the fairytale dress that Kate sported on the big day.
They drew sketches, chose the fabrics and sewed the different parts together, citing their most difficult task as creating the triple-mesh veil.
The regal dress is set to retail for about $800 (£485) - a steal compared to the original price tag of £40,000 - and will be available in select Lord & Taylor stores in the US this July.

U.S. Sues Wells Fargo for Faulty Mortgages
Wells Fargo was sued by the government, which accused the nation's biggest mortgage lender of "reckless" lending and leaving a federal insurance program to pick up the tab. Photo: Bloomberg News.

Colin Farrell visits kids' hospital on Christmas Day
The Minority Report star made an unannounced stop at the Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Dublin to spread some festive cheer.
Farrell, who has two young sons, spent four hours chatting with sick kids, including two-year-old Max Wenman, who was diagnosed with cancer in July (12).
Max's godfather Eddie Brennan tells the Irish Sun, "We'd a rough idea Colin might stop in because he tends to visit on Christmas Day, but it was more of a hope than anything. He came in and met Max and his dad Roy, he stayed for at least 10 minutes, chatting about anything and everything, and he couldn't have been a bigger hero. The kids were delighted to see him but I think the nurses were even more excited! He's a total legend."
Farrell is a regular visitor to the hospital, and also spent Christmas Day there last year (11).

Camera: 5D MII with latest firmware update ( ~ camera 1.5 years old)
Strobes: Sea and Sea 110 alpha (Two ~ 1.5 years old)
Aquatica Housing for 5D MII (new)
Sea and Sea TTL Converter and battery for Canon (new)
Sea and Sea Sync Chords for strobes (new)
Aquatica 6 pin bulkhead Type C hot shoe assembly for Canon camera with 6 pins (new part number 18920.1): http://aquatica.ca/e...connectors.html
Problem statement:
The 5DM II will will not fire the 2 Sea and Sea 110 alpha strobes.
I have had Cathy Church's photography shop switch out the standard 5 pin bulkhead connection with the new 6 pin bulkhead hotshoe connection. Her and her technician worked on this for 2 hours and could not find the problem.
Troubleshooting so far:
1) Strobes worked fine during the week while using my Canon S95 and fiber optic cable setup
2) I have test fired my new 580 EX II Canon Flash multiple times and it works fine and all menus are reading normal
3) We have attempted to use both manual switch settings and TTL settings in accordance with manufacture's manuals (i.e. both up and down)
4) We have used a digital tester to check for continuity on each segment of the circuit/wiring from 6 pin hotshoe all the way to strobes
5) We have test fired the strobes manually in the shop by disconnecting the strobes from the TTL converter and going through the new sync chord.
6) We have verified proper settings on the back of the strobes
7) We have turned on the equipment in the following order: Sea and Sea TTL Converter, Sea and Sea Strobes, Canon 5D MII
8) We cleared all custom function settings for both the camera and the flash settings
9) We attempted to trigger the strobes while in Manual and AV mode on the camera settings but that did not work.
Noted the following on the Canon 5D MII Flash Settings when all was hooked up and turned on:
Under the "External Speedlight Control" in the camera menu, the flash settings could not be changed because the flash was not being recognized (i.e. the menus were "grayed out").
Has anyone run into this problem with a 5D MII in an Aquatica Housing with Sea and Sea strobes and not had their strobe fire either manually or in TTL mode?
Is there a possibility that there is setting that I am missing on the camera that is not causing the strobes to fire?
Is there an issue with the circuit speed of the strobes is not compatable with the camera signal speeds/timing? I found the following issue on another forum with regards to using a Heinrichs Weikamp converter:
Sep 21 2009, 01:50 PMThe Heinrichs Weikamp converter will not work with the D700 and YS110 alpha's. The YS110 alpha timings (12000 us) are not quick enough for the D700 (7500 us). The only option for you is to use the sea & sea converter. As has already been alluded to, this will also require rewiring the bulkhead to use all 5 pins. IIUC, this means replacing the bulkhead on the aquatica housings.
While this is a different setup I am not sure if the same timing issue applies with what I have.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Model of a Modern Royal Mail
Last week all the new walk-sequencing machines in our area broke down. This meant that only about a third of the letters arrived at our delivery office on Wednesday. So on Thursday we had two days' post to deliver, and everyone's mail was late.
Walk-sequencing machines sort the letters into the order that they are going to be delivered in. The old walk-sorting machines only organised the post into rounds: postal workers had to do the final sorting. Under the old system, all the post was in the delivery office by 7.15 and we were usually out on our rounds by 9.00. Under the new system, the last lorry arrives at 9.15 and sometimes we don't get out until after 11.00. It's quite normal for a postal worker to finish work at 3.30 these days, and for posties doing rural rounds still to be delivering letters as late as four in the afternoon. The machines also have a tendency to break down, as we've just discovered, so on some days no post is delivered at all. But they are central to the Royal Mail's 'modernisation' programme.
There was a talk show about the Royal Mail on BBC Three Counties Radio the other day. People in Milton Keynes weren't getting their post. Some people had been waiting for three weeks for it to arrive. 'Obviously we have to modernise the business and that is what we are doing,' explained Steve Smart, a local collection and delivery manager. 'At the end of the day if we don't modernise Royal Mail we'll have problems down the line.' In a nine-minute interview he used the word 'modernise' or 'modernisation' 15 times.
The Royal Mail have scrapped all the bikes in Milton Keynes and replaced them with vans. Vans are obviously much more modern than bikes. They are also more expensive. Not only do they cost several thousand pounds to buy, they cost several hundred pounds a year to tax and insure. As one postal worker said, 'you could have bought a new bike for the cost of the insurance, which would have lasted ten years.'
Vans are also slower and less versatile than bikes. They are quicker along the road, but once on your round you have to get out and walk, pulling the post behind you on a trolley. It's awkward. After a while it puts a strain on your back. And you can't read the envelopes as you're walking, which slows things down even more. Rounds that used to take three and a half hours to complete are now taking up to five. Whoever devised this method has obviously never delivered a letter in their life.
On a bike you can sometimes ride right to the front door and push the post through the letter box without getting off. You don't get a stiff back. You never have trouble parking. Bikes cost nothing to run, give out no fumes, and will still be in use when all the vans are scrapped because petrol has become too expensive.
'Modernising' the Royal Mail means replacing a tried and tested method that's been good for more than a hundred years with one that is more tiring, more polluting, slower and more expensive. Expect more chaos and delayed post as the Royal Mail's modernisation programme is rolled out across the country.

A Parade Of Horror Stories From Copyright Collection Organizations
from the not-a-panacea dept
Jonathan Band has put together a fantastic white paper, detailing "cautionary tales" related to excess of and problems caused by these Collective Rights Organizations (CROs) around the globe. It's quite eye opening. As he notes:
The episodes collected below reveal a long history of corruption, mismanagement, confiscation of funds, and lack of transparency that has deprived artists of the revenues they earned. At the same time, CROs have often aggressively sought fees to which they were not legally entitled or in a manner that discredited the copyright system. While properly regulated CROs in some circumstances enhance efficiency and advance the interests of rights holders and users, policymakers must be aware of this history as they consider the appropriateness of CROs as a possible solution to a specific copyright issueThe paper categorizes these problems into two categories. First up is a collection of stories that show how these organizations are quite frequently "Bad For Artists," covering things like corruption, mismanagement of funds, bad distribution of funds, lack of transparency, lack of choice, diverting funds & attention from small artists to large, etc. The second group is "Bad for Users," covering things like monopolistic control (and pricing), trying to ignore fair use, price fixing, and aggressively trying to get licenses for things they have no rights over. What's amazing about the report is just how many examples there are. This is not a case of a few rogue CROs acting badly. It's difficult to look through the paper and not see evidence of how these CROs are almost systemically designed to actually be very bad for both artists and the public (though perhaps helpful in keeping the status quo for gatekeepers).
Just doing a quick count, I see over 90 examples of actions taken by these collection societies that have either been bad for artists or for users. This is a serious problem, not a "solution" to fixing whatever inefficiencies there may be in the music industry today.

What Are The Benefits Of Pool Sanitizers?
Mineral sanitizers do a great job of reducing the need of liquid or dry chemicals, which also lowers your costs on those chemicals over the long haul.
Most mineral sanitizers contain silver and copper. Silver does the job of fighting and eliminating any bacterias in the water, while copper helps prevent algae from growing in your pool or spa.
The sanitizers also help prevent red eyes, eliminate harsh chemical odors, and also soften the water for an enjoyable swimming experience.
Please give us a call if you have any questions in choosing the correct mineral sanitizer for your pool or spa.

RYE, Colo., Nov. 29 (UPI) -- A fire that killed three people in a house in a small town in Colorado was deliberately set, investigators said Thursday.
A man who had been living in the house in Rye was being sought as a person of interest, KRDO-TV reported. Harry Mapps, 59, was in the town of about 200 people in south-central Colorado until recently, Don Leach, an investigative captain with the Pueblo County sheriff, said.
"He's not here anymore," Leach said. "We don't have any details as to why. We believe he was here recently, so he could have relevant information."
The fire was reported Wednesday morning and burned so fiercely the roof collapsed. When firefighters were able to enter the structure Thursday, they found the fire had started in two places, suggesting arson.
The bodies of two women and a man were found in the structure. Autopsies were scheduled for Friday.
Lisa Shorter, a spokeswoman for the Pueblo County sheriff, said ammunition stored in the basement fueled the fire, The Denver Post said. Leach said wood-burning stoves used to heat the building provided additional fuel.

The Siamang is distinctive for two reasons. The first is that two fingers on each hand are fused together — hence the name "syndactylus", from the Ancient Greek sun-, "united" + daktulos "finger". The second is the large "gular sac" (found in both male and female of the species), which is a throat pouch that can be inflated to the size of its head, allowing the Siamang to make loud resonating calls or songs.
There may be two subspecies of the Siamang. If so, they are the nominate Sumatran Siamang (S. s. syndactylus) and the Malaysian Siamang (S. s. continentis, in peninsular Malaysia).Otherwise, the Malaysian individuals are only a population. The Siamang is the only gibbon which occurs sympatrically with other gibbons; its two ranges are entirely within the combined ranges of the Agile Gibbon and the Lar Gibbon. Although the siamang is given a different name than other gibbons, this division is not cladistically sound, since the genus Nomascus split from the rest of the gibbons before Symphalangus split
The Siamang can live up to 30+ years in captivity.
While the illegal pet trade takes a toll on wild populations, the principal threat to the Siamang is habitat loss in both Malaysia and Sumatra. Palm oil production is clearing large swathes of forest, reducing the habitat of the Siamang, along with that of other species such as the Sumatran Tiger.
The Siamang inhabits the forest remnants of Sumatra Island and the Malay Peninsula, and is widely distributed from lowland forest to montane forest, even a rainforest. And can be found at altitudes of up to 3800 m . The Siamang lives in groups of up to 6 individuals (4 individuals on average) with a home range 23 hectares on average.. Their day ranges are substantially smaller than those of sympatric Hylobates species, often less than 1 km. The Siamang's melodious choir singing breaks the forest's silence in the early morning after the Agile Gibbon or Lar Gibbon's calls. The Siamang in Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula are similar in appearance, but there are some differences in behaviour between the two populations.
The Siamang mainly eats various parts of plants. The Sumatran Siamang is more frugivorous than its Malayan cousin, with fruit making up to 60% of its diet. The Siamang eats at least 160 species of plants, from vines to woody plants. Its major food is figs (Ficus spp.), a member of Moraceae family. The Siamang prefers to eat ripe fruit rather than unripe fruit, and young leaves rather than old leaves. It eats flowers and a few animals, mostly insects. When the Siamang eats large flowers, it will eat only the corolla (petal), but it will eat all parts of smaller flowers, with the small fruit collected in its hand before being consumed. When it eats big and hard seeds or seeds with sharp edge it will peel out the fruit flesh and throw away the seed. Although its diet consists of substantial portions of fruit, it is the most folivorous of all members of Hylobatidae. As it is also the largest gibbon, and thus fits well with the general primate dietary trend in which larger primates tend to be more folivorous
Demography and population
A group of Siamang normally consist of an adult dominant male, an adult dominant female, with offspring, infant and sometimes a sub-adult. The sub-adult usually leaves the group after the age 6 to 8 years; sub-adult females tend to leave the group earlier than sub-adult males. Siamang males tend to offer more paternal care than other members of the family Hylobatidae, taking up a major role in carrying the infant after it is about 8 months old. The infant typically returns to its mother to sleep and nurse. A study in relation to effect of habitat disturbance on the Siamang found that group composition is varied in age-sex structure between intact forest and post-burnt forest. The post-burnt population was more adult and sub-adults than the intact population. Post-burnt groups contain fewer infants, small juveniles and large juveniles compared to intact forest groups. Infant survival rates in post-burnt groups are lower than in intact forests. The number of individuals in intact forests is higher than in post-burnt forests. The Siamang in disturbed forests live in small groups and have a density lower than in intact forests because of lack of food resources and trees for living.
In the 1980s, the Indonesian population of the Siamang in the wild was estimated to be 360,000 individuals. This seems over-estimate today, as an example, Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park (BBSNP) is the third largest protected area (3,568 km²) in Sumatra, of which approximately 2,570 km² remains under forest cover inhabit by 22,390 siamangs (in 2002 censuses). According to two different research projects conducted in Sumatra, the Siamang prefer to inhabit lowland forest below between 500 m in altitude and over 1000 m above sea level.
The Siamang tends to rest for more than 50% of its waking period (from dawn to dusk), followed by feeding, moving, foraging and social activities. It takes more rest during midday, taking time to groom each other or play. During resting time it usually uses a branch of a large tree lying on their back or on their stomach. Feeding behaviors, foraging, and moving are most often in the morning and after resting time.
In the dry season the length of the Siamang's daily range is longer than in the rainy season. The Siamang in southern Sumatra undertakes less foraging than the Siamang in other places because it eats more fruit and therefore consumes more nutrition, which results in less time needed for looking for food. Sometimes the Siamang will spend all of the day in one big fruiting tree, just moving out when it wants to rest and then coming back again to fruiting trees.
Role of calling
The Siamang starts its day by calling in the early morning and calls less after midday, with the peak of their calls around 9:00 am to 10:00 am. Most of the Siamang's calls are directed to its neighbours rather than to inside its home range. This means that the Siamang's calling is in response to disturbances and is to defend its territory. Calls in the late morning typically happen when it meets or sees another Siamang group. The edge of the Siamang's home range, which may overlap another, is often the places where calling is made. Counter-call (co-response calling) occasionally happens near the border or in the overlap area. Calls are numerous when fruit is more abundant rather than when fruit is less available. Branch shaking, swinging, and moving around the tree crowns accompany the calling. This movement might be to show the other groups where they are.
The Siamang prefers calling in the living, high and big trees, it might be the places where another group is easy to see. Beside that, living, big, and tall trees can support Siamang movement. Calling trees are usually near feeding trees but sometimes they call in the feeding trees.
Siamang and their habitat
As a frugivorous animal, the Siamang disperses seeds through defacation as it travels across its territory. The Siamang can carry seed and defecate over 300 m with the shortest distance being 47.6 m from the seed resource, which supports the forest regeneration and succession.
Threats to population
The Siamang, as an arboreal primate, absolutely depends on the forest for existence, needing trees for its living. At the moment, the Siamang is facing a population decrease due to habitat loss, poaching and hunting.
Habitat loss
A major threat to the Siamang is habitat loss due to plantation, forest fire, illegal logging, encroachment, and human development. Firstly, palm oil plantations have removed large areas of the Siamang's habitat in the last four decades. Since 2002 107,000 square kilometres of palm oil have been planted, which has replaced much rainforest in Indonesia and Malaysia, where the Siamang originally used to live. Secondly, in the last two decades, forest fire destroyed more than 20,000 km² of Sumatran rainforest, mainly in the lowland area where most of the Siamang live. Thirdly, the rate of illegal logging in Indonesia increased from 1980 to 1995 and even more rapidly after the reformation era beginning in 1998.
These illegal activities devastated the remaining tropical rainforest especially in Sumatra. Fourthly, forest encroachments change forest cover into cultivated land, for example; the rising price of coffee in 1998 has been encouraging people in Sumatra to replace the forest with coffee plantation. Fifthly, development in many areas needs infrastructure such as roads, which now divide a lot of conservation areas have been caused forest fragmentation and edge effects. Unfortunately, the Siamang as an arboreal primate faces difficulty because road establishment has disconnected their pathways.
Poaching and hunting
Unlike other parts of Asia, primates are not hunted for their meat in Indonesia (the exception is in Chinese restaurants in Indonesia which sometimes serve macaque on their menu). However, they are poached and hunted for the illegal pet trade, mostly for infant Siamang. Poachers kill the mothers because mother Siamang are highly protective of their infants. It is therefore very difficult to remove the infant without first killing the mother. Despite the fact that most Siamang on the market are infants many infants nevertheless die during transportation.

Edgar Bronfman Promotes Illegal Price Fixing For The Recording Industry
from the isn't-that-illegal? dept
Of course, Bronfman (who has a history of spouting off when he shouldn't on digital music), couldn't stop there. He also channeled his counterpart at Sony, Andrew Lack, who earlier this year complained that it was somehow "unfair" that Steve Jobs could make money on both the iPod and digital music. Bronfman's quote: "We are selling our songs through iPod, but we don't have a share of iPod's revenue. We want to share in those revenue streams. We have to get out of the mindset that our content has promotional value only." Hmm. So, because for years and years you fought any kind of system for digital music distribution and even (yes, remember?) sued the original makers of digital music players, you now suddenly think you deserve revenue from those who actually did create something and did get something to market while you fought them the whole way? As for his claim that it's a "mindset" issue that makes music have promotional value, as we've been saying for years, content is always going to be a promotional good -- it's the very nature of the economics of content where the marginal cost of duplicating the content is zero. The price of that content will eventually get pushed down to zero, and the only real benefit is as a promotional good. That's not a bad thing -- if only the recording industry would recognize it. It means they can do much more embracing the promotional aspect of music. They may have missed out on their chance to get in on the iPod revenue stream, but there are plenty of other revenue streams out there supported by music as a promotional good. Somehow, however, you get the feeling that the old school record execs like Mr. Bronfman aren't going to realize any of this any time soon and soon we'll hear him whining about how musicians are making money while giving away their music? Is he going to start demanding a part of their revenue stream also for being more creative business minded than he is?

Back then a proposal for a 1,200-student Islamic school in Camden on Sydney's rural outskirts was rejected by the local council 'on planning grounds alone' - traffic, noise, amenity. That's fair enough and it's what councils should do.
My objection was to the residents who used the opportunity to froth at the mouth with their bigotry. Before the vote, protesters placed pigs' heads on stakes and draped an Australian flag between them on the proposed school site.
Their pin-up girl was Kate McCulloch, shown here at the meeting disgracing the Australian flag:
She summed up the feelings:
Mrs McCulloch, who owns a hospitality business in Camden, accuses Australia's Muslim leadership of saying nothing while mothers and children are used as suicide bombers.
"The ones that come here oppress our society, they take our welfare and they don't want to accept our way of life," she said after the council vote.
Now a Catholic school has applied to build a 1,000-student school, which has the bigots applauding.
As the Sydney Morning Herald reports:
The Camden residents' group that fought a Muslim society's proposal for a school in rural Camden has welcomed a Catholic organisation's plans to build a school nearby because "Catholics are part of our community".
The president of the Camden/Macarthur Residents' Group, Emil Sremchevich, said the Catholic school plan "ticked all the right boxes", even though he is yet to see its development application.
Pin-up Kate wasn't in the news this time, it was President Emil doing the talking.
A spokesman for the Quranic Society, Issam Obeid, said: "Everyone can see there is a double standard … No one knows anything about the Catholic school and they say, 'Yeah, give it a tick already.' I think racism is affecting this."
President Emil rejected that:
"Why is that racist? Why is it discriminatory? It's very simple: people like some things but don't like other things. Some of us like blondes, some of us like brunettes. Some of us like Fords, some of us like Holdens. Why is it xenophobic just because I want to make a choice? If I want to like some people and not like other people, that's the nature of the beast."
Cartoonist Wilcox had it about right:
The Mayor has stated the council position:
Camden's Mayor, Chris Patterson, said religion had nothing to do with the the council's decision in May. "And this DA will be treated exactly the same. The council will take into account traffic, amenity, noise."
The Sydney Morning Herald story is here.

I do not understand how those knives are holding up that bottle. That shouldn't be happening...
I to have peer reviewed the evidence. It can work with Heineken bottles too.
Ah... It only looked like one was touching any other knife in the picture.
Maybe it takes three Heineken's before this can be accomplished? Could be a missing/obvious variable.
I'd say in the name of science this calls for massive empirical research, does it also work with empty bottles? - I know logic says yes, but by the scientific method I don't want to prejudge the experimental result
So cool! I'd try it myself, except that I don't have three butter knives. I do have 3 forks that I could probably make work, but I don't drink, so I have no beer bottles. I'll think of something.
With enough beer, I am not attempting to do physics experiments, unless it is fluid dynamics...LOL
Is the fourth fork in motion? The toothpick can't be holding it at an angle.

The two sides of Suigintou hime-sama, the desperate and helpless side, and the cold blooded, murderous and ruthless side.
Honestly, I prefer her murderous side, but hey, it is refreshing to look at her more innocent side as well. So, she wasn't made with wings, eh? I noticed that she didn't sprout out wings when she first met Shinku. Probably the wings were the very incarnation of her hatred.

Hello mina-san!
I've just watched the part 1 of ouverture and wow! the contrast between the usual suigintou and her just discovered new sad side has been shocking! (Megu will probably drool for this extremely cute and gentle suigintou xD)
Well, I heard part 2 is already out so i'm going to watch it as soon as I can; I'd want to keep the good first impressions I had of 5th doll but...i guess ouverture part 2 will end to destroy my good image of her.

Moe~ Suigintou is fine too.
Finished both episodes, I have to say that I enjoyed very much this OVA. My Suigintou-fanboyism just reached new heights.
I will add my compliments to Rie Tanaka, she did a wonderful job in both Suigintou's "modes".
Spoiler for second OVA:
Come on, I want third tv-series.

Wee, finished both OVA eps.
Apparently everyone sees what they want to see In my case (being a Shinku fan ) I can't understand how Shinku did anything wrong with trying to leave Suigintou out of the Alice game. According to Shinku, Rozen Maidens are the epitome of dolls fighting for perfection, Suigintou was flawed from the start so apparently Shinku thought (ok wrongly, but still) that there's no chance Suigintou can win even a fight against the other dolls, much more against her. What's bad in wanting Suigintou, who didn't even have a Rosa Mystiqua, to continue out of the Alice game as Sara's doll? Shinku did whatever was in her power to comfort and protect her. It's not Shinku's fault Suigintou went nuts. Shinku was telling the truth anyway, and even if she has her share of arrogance as a Rozen Maiden and as a presumed favorite, it was still the truth and Suigintou apparently knows it, that's why she gets so furious at being called Junk. Not to mention that it was Sui who went offensive and broke Shinkus brooch. Shinku had no will to fight against her. Not that it's Suigintou's fault either. You're bound to develop all sorts of complexes if you get in Suigintou's place, feeling abandoned for very long, feeling incomplete, junk, while seeing all your other sisters having all the things you desire. Yes, she was bound to get mad at Shinku, although it still isn't Shinku's fault.
Yup, Rozen sucks

This activity should take approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
After participating in this activity plan, which is designed to help participants learn about backcountry waste disposal, participants will be able to
Participants will explore the effects of improper disposal of human waste and ways to properly dispose of human waste.
Bring in your two jars, one containing just mineral soil and the other containing humus-organic soil and decaying leaves, or grass clippings. Allow the participants to look at the jars. Discuss what the jars demonstrate about the natural process of decomposition. Explain that although this process can take days, weeks, months, or even years, organic materials such as food, leaves, grass clippings, and feces eventually decompose into the soil. Explain that the concept of decomposition will be explored again later in the activity.
|Note: It is possible to conduct this activity without using the jar of decaying material. If necessary, the activity can begin with the next step.
Next, ask the group members if they would use their yard as a bathroom. Why or why not? The following activity will help answer those questions.
Distribute toilet paper and have participants tear it into individual squares. If you conduct this activity outdoors, also distribute small rocks for paperweights. Have the participants scatter their pieces of paper around the area in which they are gathered, making sure the paper is visible. Have them stand back and view the area. Tell the participants that each piece of paper represents used toilet paper or the deposit of human waste along a trail on the perimeter of a campsite.
A thorough reading of the Background on the Principles of Leave No Trace will help facilitate the following discussion.
Ask participants the following: What is your reaction to this scene and why? What can people do to dispose of their toilet paper and human waste in a less visible and more sanitary manner? Participants should understand that they should pack out toilet paper and human waste or bury it in a cathole.
Explain to the group that digging a cathole is one way of properly disposing of human waste. Distribute and discuss the information sheet "Catholes: Proper Disposal of Human Waste" at the end of this activity plan. Practice digging a cathole.
|Note: Before conducting this activity, find a spot for digging that will not be harmed, such as a sandbox, sand play lot, or a box of sand 12 inches deep.
Ask participants: What if a garden trowel isn't available? What other tools could you use to dig a cathole? Brainstorm other ways to dig a hole. Use a rock, a stick, or a boot heel. Practice using these tools to dig a hole. Are they effective? Why or why not? Always carry a trowel.
There are other ways to get rid of toilet paper without burying it or leaving it in the backcountry. Have group members create a plan for how their group will dispose of toilet paper in the backcountry. Burning it with a lighter right after use is not an option; this could cause a fire, and the paper rarely burns completely. One option is to deposit the toilet paper in a small sealable plastic bag and pack it out with the other camp garbage. A small disposal sponge soaked with ammonia helps reduce the smell. Some areas may require that all feces and toilet paper be packed out. Always check with the land management agency if there is a question. Refer to the Background on the Principles of Leave No Trace for details.
What is human waste and how do we usually dispose of it? In the backcountry, it's not so easy. We need to be prepared to dispose of it each day using the techniques we've talked about. Disposal of human waste is a challenge for outdoor visitorsand it can be a personal and sensitive matterbut it is important. How well has your group learned to properly dispose of human waste?
Have group members brainstorm why proper disposal of human waste in the backcountry is important. The leader should add ideas from the Background on the Principles of Leave No Trace not mentioned by the group. Discussion should center around decomposition, pollution of water sources, spread of disease, disruption of wildlife, and negative implications of someone finding human waste.
Congratulations on conducting a well-prepared meeting for your group!
