My thoughts on teaching
However, I've never been employed as one. I have no formal education in teaching. You could say one of my spiritual gifts is teaching (at least that's how I score on this test). But discerning what to teach and when and to whom is a regular challenge.
I do find myself constantly teaching my kids. Though I've never homeschooled, and don't plan to as of now, nearly every day, I'm actively teaching them something. The other day, we had a whole conversation about legal liability and why our HOA wants us to take down the tree swing. Today I walked them through the whole process of how to get a driver's license. Maybe a little deep for two elementary school aged kids, but I try not to underestimate their ability to understand real world situations if explained on their level. You could say I'm in the constant process of informally educating them on emotions, relationships, the way the world works, who God is, why they are on this earth, and a million other things. That alone qualifies me as a teacher, right?
But at times, though I know I'm capable of certain kinds of teaching, I have a sense that I should not.
For instance, it gets really tricky when I try to teach something to my husband. It may be okay if it's about one of the kids, but sometimes it's not. It may be okay if it's a spiritual matter, but usually not. Often he feels disrespected if I'm communicating something in a teachery way.
Another situation in which I'm struggling to find my place is volunteering in the classroom. If you are a teacher, I'd love your input here. Once she figured out I was capable of it, one of the kids' teachers decided my job would be to take the lowest group of about 7 students into an adjacent classroom to reteach math concepts to them. Basically, tutor them, come up with sample problems, use the white board, etc. In other words, she wants me to be a second teacher because they are way behind. I feel bad for the kids. I worked with them last week. They clearly have no other help, and most don't come from homes where the adults speak English. How exactly the kids can understand the slight difference between the "hundreds place" and the "hundredths place" is beyond me. I'm capable of giving them some extra help. But I'm not sure it's my job. It's not at all why I'm volunteering. If I agree to the teacher's plans, I'll never be with my own child. Again, I have no training in teaching math, nor do I want to be a tutor. I'm volunteering 90 minutes a week to be involved in my child's life, not be the teacher's assistant. And I'm not sure how to communicate that gently.
Then there's church. I was recently asked to be a part of a rotating teaching team for the 4th/5th grade youth group. This is something I've agreed to, and have my first teaching date in two weeks! But when I stand back, I'm realizing that I've never spoken to 50 or 75 "tweens" before. What if they chatter, or giggle, or are completely bored by what I'm saying? I don't know how to be cool and funny. I don't know how to respond to rude behavior, especially in church. Though I haven't been given my topic yet, I know in my brain that I'm capable of standing before them and having something to say, I just feel out of my element as a teacher. I feel stretched.
Which isn't a bad thing. I'm just hashing out my thoughts with you guys on the subject today. I know a few of you are teachers, and I thought maybe you'd have some tips or input for me. Of course prayer will be a part of my prep for both the conversation with the teacher and the teaching at church.
But it's tricky, this teaching thing.
Maybe that's why I decided to write a blog post.
I'm comfy here. And you guys are so encouraging and helpful. I'm really thankful for your words, whenever you have some to offer.
So no profound wrap-up this time; I'm just processing. If you think of it, please pray with/for me for wisdom and discernment in teaching...what and when and to whom. Thanks friends.
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens...a time to be silent, and a time to speak....
Ecclesiastes 3:1, 7

I am a teacher. And having volunteers on the classroom is tough because they are under-utilized or over-utilized. Teaching the group of kids she has given you is scathe to us as well. Maybe just a straight forward "I don't feel comfortable with this." And it is always best to have a backup plan in mind. It can also be stressful having a parent volunteer in the room because teachers worry the parents are judging everything we do. I hope that helps.
I am also a youth leader. Neither my husband or I were trained for this job. We have learned quite a bit along the way. Sometimes you do have to quiet them down and sometimes they don't pay attention. And those times we try to wrap it up with one memorable point and play a game. No sense in demanding their attention when my lesson isn't coming together. I am of the opinion that their respect of me as a teacher, leader, Christian needs to dime before what I am teaching them.
Just a few of my thoughts.I don't have any awesome words of wisom, but I will pray that the Lord reveals to you how to handle each situation best! Hugs! =)
ReplyDeleteI'm a newer reader, but I am a teacher also. I agree with what Andrea said, you may just want to tell the teacher you do not feel comfortable doing that. It sounds like this teacher is very overwhelmed! To have 7 students that are not grasping the concepts in the classroom is A LOT. She probably sees you as a capable and responsible adult and therefore was hoping you could help with this. But it is asking a lot. It sounds like she really does need another teacher in the classroom. Does your school offer extra help for students that speak another language as their first language? It sounds like this could be the main problem.
As far as working with middle schoolers...they love to talk. They love to be valued. They so badly want to share with anyone else EVERYTHING that they are experiencing. They are also usually very curious. As a result, this can make it hard for them to sit through a more than 20 minute lesson. So I would say keep it short and sweet and start with a discussion. When you let them talk, they want to be there and they feel like they have a sort of ownership to the group. They can come across as disrespectful when they do not sit quietly. However, if you focus on the good comments and commend them when they participate well, you will do fine. They will soon want to contribute their ideas and feelings when they see that you value them. If there is any way you could play music as they are coming in, that usually breaks the ice for them. Basically, let the talking be balanced not always you, but not always them either.
Hope this helps. You seem like a sweet person and your heart is in the right place so regardless, God will bless your obedience. I pray it goes well with you.
AbbyRepliesAbby, yes our school is one of many that are understaffed and overcrowded. The class has 37 children in it and no extra help other than parent volunteers. So I feel for all parties involved, especially the kids. I am SO thankful for your input on the tweens too!! Great advice; I will most certainly be incorporating some 2-way conversation into my talk now. I appreciate your taking the time to offer such thoughtful advice.
I'm a new reader and have been so encouraged by your blog. This sentence surprised me: "I'm volunteering 90 minutes a week to be involved in my child's life, not be the teacher's assistant." I'm not a teacher, but I think it's fair to say that all classroom volunteers should be there to help the teacher. I understand that you'd want to be with your daughter while you're there, and I can't imagine the teacher would turn down an offer for you to do something else in the class that would still be helpful.
Thank you for putting your thoughts out there. Today I'm especially appreciative of the reminder about "teaching" husbands.When I was teaching in Long Beach, they took away all our teaching aides because teachers were using them in this same fashion. "The lesser qualified helpers teaching the kids who need the most qualified instruction." No disrespect to your mad volunteer skills :) but I feel the same way about using non-credentialed parents taking the most "at-risk" students. My non-teacher sister in law works as a paid aide and they just gave her an ELL class essentially - which makes my skin crawl (as this is my teaching specialty and this is pretty much a non-compliance issue for her district!) The teacher should be working with these students while giving you extension type activities to oversee with the more independent higher level students. That being said, not sure how you say this to the teacher - maybe what the others say - that you feel uncomfortable with the role, that you don't mind occasional concept review but that you don't feel qualified for every day instruction of at risk students - and also adding that you devote this much time to volunteering to be seen by your kids - I think that's very valid. :)
ReplyDeleteyour blog makes me happy - just a honest, open space without pretense. LOVE it. I also love that you want to be with your kiddo in the classroom - it is OK to miss our kids & OK for you to want to spend your valuable 90mins with her...at some point!
Honesty is the best policy, I believe - tell her your desire to be with your kiddo - she's got to have some sort of task that can accommodate that! xoHi there! I'm here from Royal Daughter Designs, and I loved your guest post. It really spoke to my heart. I could truly see God's words speaking through you, so in regards to teaching those tweens, I'm sure you will have it under your belt with His annointing. Tweens are in a difficult stage trying to find out where they stand. I have one of my own, but I can tell you that most that I've dealt with, need that right direction to mold them into their teenage years. (hope that made sense). God will be there to guide you easily when sharing His word. Have a beautiful day!

ArchShowcase Sumit Singhal
Sumit Singhal loves modern architecture. He comes from a family of builders who have built more than 20 projects in the last ten years near Delhi in India. He has recently started writing about the architectural projects that catch his imagination. House B.A.B.E. in Bachlberg by destilat Design Studio GmbHMarch 15th, 2014 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: destilat Design Studio GmbH The former domicile of a family of entrepreneurs from Linz is located near the top of Bachlberg, in very quiet area near the woods, overlooking the provincial capital of Linz, with a panoramic view of the distant Alpine foothills.
In cooperation with W. Wimmer, this run-down object with its spacious garden was converted into a modern apartment house with three living units. The original structure was gutted completely and extended by an additional floor with insulated Starting at the socle storey, the entire structure was slightly turned to optimise its viewing angles. Covered entirely with grey shingles made of asbestos cement (Eternit), the building has a very monolithic and sculptural character due to its seemingly random distribution of apertures for windows, loggias and terraces. The apartments of this house have very diverse characters and usable floor areas ranging from 140 to 200 sq m. The former indoor pool area on the ground floor was converted to an apartment with direct access to the property's garden. However, the crown jewel of this building is the penthouse with its open living, kitchen and dining area and up to 6.5 meter high, open pitched roof and a gallery. A massive open fireplace is the almost archaic centre due to its reduced design as well as its concrete base and rough plasterwork. Besides the impressive main room, which includes a gallery, the entrance area as well as the bathrooms were individually designed to meet the client's requirements. About destilat destilat is nationally and internationally active in architecture, interior design and furniture design and maintains showrooms in Vienna and Linz. destilat sees each project in a holistic context and offers comprehensive, elaborate architectural concepts, paying careful attention even to the smallest details. destilat develops architectural concepts for private and public customers, for office as well as for public space and also for exhibition stands at trade fairs. destilat integrates corporate architecture and the respective brands and products into architectural concepts and supports its customers in the development of furniture for mass-production.

Church Planting Resource Roundup
Church Planting Resource Roundup
A week from today on The Exchange, I am going to host a few pastors and church leaders for a discussion on church planting, specifically the importance of established churches planting new churches. In anticipation of our discussion next week, I wanted to provide a brief collection of some church planting blog posts and resources I think may be helpful for church planters or churches exploring the possibility of planting new churches.
5 Reasons Established Churches Should Plant Churches
Pastors of established churches should be engaged in church planting.
Church planting follows a biblical pattern.
When we look throughout the New Testament, we see church planting as an established pattern. I will be the first to tell you the Bible never mentions church planting. It never comes out and says, "Plant churches," but it's clearly assumed. It's the first thing the disciples did when they responded to the commissions of Jesus. They planted churches.
Most of the churches recorded in the New Testament were involved in sending people in some form or another to start other churches. Ironically, the Jerusalem Church was an exception. They sent people out to check up on the new churches and to make sure they weren't getting too crazy.
We've got too many Jerusalem churches today. The only time they're heard from is when they believe someone is doing something wrong. We've got to change that truth. Church planting is an overwhelmingly Biblical passion and we need to support it. We were all started at some point. Let's model that spirit again and start more churches.
Church planting is essential for survival.
For any movement to thrive, it has to plant churches. Statistically speaking, if a population just wants to "break even," it has to plant at least at a three percent level—a denomination of 100 churches has to plant 3 to stay even considering attrition. A five percent increase is needed to grow. Ten percent is needed to thrive.
If we honestly believe our movement is the place to land theologically, then we need to support it by planting churches.
3 Pieces of Advice from a Church Planter to Church Planters
Church planting is difficult, but a few simple actions can make it a bit easier
Form Healthy Relationships
Church planters and plants, perhaps more so than any other pastor and church, need to form healthy relationships with other churches – including established churches who can help them and others that they can help.
Many church planters are young men fresh out of seminary or youth ministry without much, if any pastoral experience. They need the wisdom and leadership of older men who have walked the road ahead of them, and these church partnerships are the perfect place to find it.
If unchecked, the needed passion for their plant can result in a myopic approach to ministry from the planter. They can forget there is a whole world outside their doors. There is local and global mission. There are other local churches looking for partners in ministry. Helping to keep the vision in check is another way a healthy established church partner can play a vital role in a new church.
Continue the Momentum
Church plants are the new default form of evangelism for a reason. They are working. There are churches making disciples in places where there were no churches a few years ago. And many of those are planting more churches in similar areas. There are a few steps church planters and leaders can do to keep the progress moving.
Find and equip the right leaders. One of the greatest causes of church planting failure are the failures of the church plant leader. It is imperative that the church planter is wired and gifted as a church planter, as well as having the necessary spiritual and emotional health.
Once you have identified the right leaders, help them discern the right place to plant. Follow the direction of the Spirit together, but take note of the places where there are few churches. Though obviously not the only place where a church plant can be effective, the Northeast, the Northwest, and cities are prime places for planting in the U.S.
6 Indicators That You May Be A Church Planter
Are you a church planter? How can you know?
1. Pattern of Ministry Initiation
If the first thing you want to start is a church, that's not a good idea. That's not a good way to test if you are, indeed, a "starter."
Rather, there should be a pattern of ministry initiation, which may include starting Bible studies, compassion-based ministries, etc. Is there a consistent flow of "launch" in your ministry life? Starting other ministries can help you figure out if God wants you to plant a church.
Launching things is difficult but a great learning process. There is a Biblical principle that says those who are faithful with a little will be given more to steward. If you have never started a ministry, it is highly unlikely that God would ask you to plant a church.
2. Pattern of Ministry Multiplication
Are you able to train others in an area of ministry and then let them go to lead that area? Or are you more likely to just do it yourself—so it can be done "right"? If howsomething is done is always more important to you than who is doing it, church planting will be a very difficult ministry path for you.
If you have a pattern of connecting people to ministry roles and then releasing them to grow into those roles, then you have a key characteristic that is essential in church planting.
4 Free Resources for New Church Planters
Church planters could always use free resources. Check out these four from LifeWay.
I love church planters—and so does LifeWay. Our primary goal at LifeWay is to provide biblical solutions for life.
As a result, we at LifeWay want to help new church planters by providing them with four key resources: some curriculum, a website, leadership development tools, and free printed LifeWay materials. Church planters who have planted churches within the last two years, regardless of denomination, may receive the following four resources:
1. Bible Study Groups (6 months of digital curriculum for all ages)
Bible study curriculum is one of the foundational parts of ministry for many churches, and LifeWay wants to give church planters a head start by providing six months of free digital curriculum for all age levels.
2. Free Church Website Design and 1 Year of Hosting
Having a website designed from scratch can cost a lot of money. Most church planters don't have enough money to hire out a web designer to whip up a fancy website. LifeWay values the online presence of the church and wants to provide new church planters with a free website and a year of hosting.
I have planted a number of churches over the years, and I definitely am not skilled in building websites, so I know that this would be helpful for me.
3. Leadership Development with Ministry Grid
LifeWay has just launched a new ministry training tool: Ministry Grid. Training church volunteers in a room for six hours on a Saturday afternoon is becoming increasingly difficult, but with Ministry Grid, training ministry volunteers is easy. Ministry Grid has over 2,000 online training videos you cannot find anywhere else. From the parking lot to the pulpit, Ministry Grid has videos for every ministry in your church.
LifeWay is offering a free year of Ministry Grid to new church planters—an invaluable resource. Volunteer training has never been more efficient or comprehensive.
Churches must be planting churches, but it is crucial that churches are sending the right people out to plant these churches. The Church Planter Candidate Assessment is a great resource that helps churches and other church planting organizations identify identify the strengths and weaknesses of potential church planters. I recommend it to you, especially if you're a pastor of an established church searching for someone to lead your new church plant endeavors.
Do you have additional church planting resources that may be of help to others? Leave some words of wisdom or helpful links in the comments.

The data custody validation rules don't appear to be implemented. This really only applies if the replication api is implemented and the following scenario happens
Node A, has service A (owner)
Node B, has service A (owned by Node A)
If a user alters service A via Node B, an error should be thrown (I think).
Generally speaking, data is replicated between nodes of a UDDI registry using a replication protocol. Registries that choose to use the replication protocol defined in Section 7.4 Replication API Set MUST enforce the following data custody policy. (Registries which choose otherwise incur no such requirement.)
Each node has custody of a portion of the aggregate data managed by the registry of which it is a part. Each datum is by definition in the custody of exactly one such node. A datum in this context can be a businessEntity, a businessService, a bindingTemplate, a tModel, or a publisherAssertion. Changes to a datum in the registry MUST originate at the node which is the custodian of the datum. The registry defines the policy for data custody and, if allowed, the custodian node for a given datum can be changed; such custody transfer processes are discussed in Section 5.4 Custody and Ownership Transfer API.

SF is a literary genre, where for the purposes of entertainment people are temporarily willing to partially suspend disbelief in vaguely reasonable extrapolations of known science. The best SF, in my opinion, does not extrapolate too far.
Buying fancy cables requires, for the purposes of entertainment, a permanent willingness to fully suspend disbelief in either unreasonable extrapolations of known science or carefully written spoof versions of known science. They both take money off you in order to provide entertainment. In the case of SF you generally get what you pay for. |

Not so different...SF lets us explore an alternate reality where the scientific principles are bent to a greater or lesser degree in an imaginary world that entertains. Cables such as these use imaginary "scientific" phenomena to produce imaginary benefits that entertain. Biggest difference is that SF entertainment is usually inexpensive while audio-tweako entertainment is almost always curiously expensive...as though the money was the only thing real in the equation!

The difference is, most SF fans realize that SF works are fictitious.

Lithuanian company - Blackbody
It is clear that the scientific sounding words are either marketing-speak or the product designer is trying to explain something that he doesn't understand but only intuits and is using pseudo-science "poetry" embarrassing as it is.
It is not a slam dunk that this product is bogus. 6moons gave it a positive review as did dagogo. This Lituanian company puts out allegedly very reputable products, DAC 2004 MkII, cables, etc. It doesn't make sense to put out a whack-o product to tarnish their reputation. In short, because this product is so woooo-woooo, any dealer (of which there are none -- direct ship from factory in Lituania) should allow an in-home trial. |

Did some mindless wandering of the web and stubled upon a very positive review of their power cables... It seems lessloss has put some serious effort into creating fake audio web sites they can put their forged reviews in. Either that or some reviewers are really effing stupid or does simply take bribes. I call bogus on everyone that does not call bogus on lessloss.
Only thing about this that makes me happy is that this thread already exists, I came here to start one ;-) |

German exports rose in June, but not by as much as expected, and there was a surprise fall in imports
Exports were up by 0.6 percent. The forecast had been for a one percent increase.
Exports, which are Germany's traditional driver of economic growth, dropped sharply in May.
Imports were worse than expected, with purchases of foreign goods down 0.8 percent from May.
That will disappoint the government which is banking on private consumption to boost growth, retail sales were also weak .. down by their largest amount this year in June.
Europe's biggest economy only narrowly escaped a recession in the first quarter after a robust performance during the early years of the eurozone crisis.
Strong industrial orders and output data released earlier this week suggest exports may strengthen in the second half, however, and could help offset the disappointing trade figures.
Exports to the eurozone, where Germany sends 40 percent of its goods, were down 1.4 percent in June compared with the same month last year, although exports to non-eurozone members of the EU were up 2.2 percent.
Shipments to countries outside the European Union were down 4.6 percent as emerging economies like China slow, which economists warn could hit Germany hard.

There's an often told tale around Franklin and Nashville that Carrie's McGavock's descendants are bitter & indignant over my 'novelized' version of her story. Truth is, no one has actually ever met one of her descendants who resents the book as I pretty much know them all and know how they feel. For the record there are some distant lateral cousins, particularly a Mormon branch, but not her descendants, who have (amusingly) taken personal offense at my portrayal.
I tell all this because today I received the following letter from one of Mariah Otey Reddick's descendants who has retired to Panamá . Wonder what he will think when I finish The Book Of Mariah?
Dear Mr. Hicks:
After conducting on-line genealogical research on and off for several years, about my mother's family, I had reached a dead end. On a whim, I Googled my great grandmother's name and her photo appeared. The caption and related information led me to your book, The Widow of the South.
Tears welled up as I discovered that my great grandmother, Mariah Otey Reddick, had been given as a wedding gift to Carrie Winder McGovack. That was on November 5, 2013, and I have continued my search since then. Of course, I immediately ordered your book and began to read it as soon as I arrived in the USA in mid-November from our home in the Panamá highlands, where my wife and I retired in 2004.
I wish to express to you, Mr. Hicks, my and my family's gratitude for the sensitive and multi-dimensional and even heroic way in which you novelized Mariah. Candidly, as I ordered the book, I wondered what a 21st Century white American male would imagine a 19th Century enslaved African woman in America would think; and how she would behave. You gave her a life independent of her "role" and, more importantly, an interior life of the mind as a key supporting character in the main story. Or, as one reviewer put it, Mariah was one of the "three main characters." Your characterization was realistic, excellent and uplifting.
Again, I express on behalf of all of Mariah Reddick's descendants, a deep appreciation and gratitude for the rare humanization of an enslaved person you fashioned in The Widow of the South.

JConcepts 4-40 x .400 Ball Stud Set (6)
I do not know what design they had in mind but these are too tight for new turnbuckle ends from Team Associated. I tried all three sizes and all are tight with new turnbuckle ends. They are a few thousandths larger in diameter than the stock ballstuds. I have not contacted Jconcepts about this yet. These appear very well made but possibly intended for aftermarket turnbuckle ends. I first noticed this problem with the carbon fiber ackerman kit Jconcepts sells for the b4/sc10 series cars and trucks.)

Like the framework of a mighty skyscraper, the core helps humans hold up the weight of the sky. Stay firm against the firmament with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $39 for a four-week mat Pilates boot camp (a $125 value)
- $75 for three private sessions (a $195 value)

Armed with the boot-camp pass, students have 30 days to complete 10 Pilates mat classes that strengthen cores with floor exercises and props such as bands, weights, and exercise balls. Private sessions aim to help practitioners to master the moves under the watchful eye of a certified Pilates instructor. Unlike the scheduled classes, private sessions are available by appointment only.

Lotus Pilates
Corinna Cosentino first discovered Pilates as a young dancer, seeking a way to simultaneously build her strength and flexibility. She fell in love with the distinctive exercise regimen and in 1998 decided to earn her Pilates certification. She then continued her studies in Chicago under the guidance of teachers who studied directly under Joseph and Clara Pilates, honing her core-building techniques and mastering Joseph's secret handshakes.
After several years spent teaching in Chicago, Cosentino opened her own studio, which boasts unobstructed space and pale hardwood floors speckled with Pilates reformers, towers, and chairs. She also provides supportive props for students to use during mat-based classes.

Artist: AUTOBODY Title: Autobody Format: 7" Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $4.50 |
"Some have claimed this is the strangest thing we have ever done - recorded on pieces of masking tape, using instruments that only our ionic spheres can recall." - Dave Abel (Fly Ashtray/Dymaxion/Autobody). "Lovely bit of tape collage murk.." - Paul Wild, Fisheye. "...an extremely pleasant diversion." - Byron Coley, The Wire. |
Artist: AVETT, MARSHALL Title: Floorbored Format: Cass Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $5.00 |
"Homemade and pretty psychedelic noise explorations recorded in February 2005. [NOTE: The color cover sez 2004 collectible!] Heavy use of overly amplified room ambiance, small bells, delay, breathing, scraping of strings and toy drum machine. Edition of 26, A to Z." - Old Gold.
Artist: V/A Title: OGX Format: Double LP Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $22.00 |
"You could break into our homes, pull out all the boxes and cases and drawers of tapes and cdrs, strap on headphones, and listen to the hundreds and hundreds of hours of music we have somehow managed to collect/compile/create over ten years, or you can buy this before its gone. Limited to just over 200 copies, handmade gatefold sleeves with spraypaint/collage/ distress upon each (not always at once), this 2LP compilation features the humdingers of the entire decade of adventure that has been Old Gold. With unreleased sounds from R. Stevie Moore & Jad Fair (Jad remixes RSMs "Under the Light"), David Daniell (San Agustin), Petland Toy Faktory, Charlie Parker (the band), Bad Poet, Morgan Guberman, C.D. & Audiodelica, Eyeball Hurt & The Medicine, Cheryl Leonard (Caroliner), Zandosis, How to Kick Yourself, Two Geniuses, Danger Woman, L. Contra, Dog, Eugene Chadbourne & Davey Williams, Drue Langlois, Bon Vivants, Autobody (Dymaxion/Fly Ashtray), Untanned Hide of a Young Cow, The Buford Highway (Justin of the Rockateens), Yximalloo, More, Tom Heasley & Ken Rosser, Gold Sparkle Band (original lineup), Die Spatzen, and of course Craig from the "Confessions Over Lunch" tape who really pegs what its all about. Seriously outrageous/contagious music from all walks of life provides the soundtrack to all your best forgotten dreams. "A lyrical and heartfelt blast of catastrophic, iron-clad whimsy" - Flan OBrien. Edition of 200. |
Artist: V/A Title: Songs from 20th Century Homes Format: LP Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $15.00 |
"Back when Old Gold was all about cassette tapes, we got a curious package in the mail from Winnipeg. In it was a letter from Michael Dumontier extolling the virtues of our Howard Finster cassette release, some highly amusing collaborative drawings, and a "Tape for Old Gold" crafted with unique handmade slipcase/booklet. That began an ongoing correspondence/swap of art and music with numerous Canadians within and around the soon-to-be-famous Royal Art Lodge collective, all tied together by Dumontier. As our enthusiasm for their efforts grew, we revisited the first tape in 2000, and this time it sounded like a record. Michael tracked down what musicians he could, made a few changes, and the result is Songs from 20th Century Homes, an LP with hand-screened cover released in an edition of just over 200, with songs by Eyeball Hurt and the Medicine, Drue and Myles Langlois, Albatross, DJ EZ Pot Roast, and two tracks from the always mind-melting Untanned Hide of a Young Cow (whose 10" on Old Gold is sold out, sorry), and snippets of artwork by Dumontier, Marcel Dzama, and Neil Farber. All in all, a brilliant glimpse into an odd world inhabited by people who must stay inside the majority of the year. Intimate, powerful performances and tomfoolery sure to be the life of your Christmas party." - Old Gold.
Artist: YXIMALLOO Title: Fangs Of Lucifer Format: LP Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $15.00 |
A surprising and well deserved reissue of 1981-86 era tracks by Naofumi Ishimarus project of 20 + years. Imagine a cross between prime Half Jap (Jad Fair even supplied the cover art to some of his tapes from the early 80s) with the some of the more electronic LAFMS projects and youll get the gist. Beautifully packaged as well.
"Naofumi Iziwaru was another one of the first to respond to Old Golds formative request for musical submissions. With dozens of releases under the name Yximalloo dating back to the 1970s, Nao had put a transdimensional dent in the cassette underground and his collaborations with Jad Fair raised more than a few wooly eyebrows. He sent us numerous tapes and they put us on the floor in a puddle of our own souls crying out for more, rethinking our own music making, and asking to please - please! - let us re-release his music. This resulted in five tapes of our own hand-picked smorgasbord, resequenced at his request. When he began making CDs, we tackled the daunting challenge of compiling about 40 minutes worth of his best music from digital and analog to marry on clear vinyl. It took several years, a lot of late nights, and handfuls of reverse/fast forward, but in the end, we were happy, Nao was happy, and now you can be happy, too dammit. Electronic clank, off kilter funk, galactic babble, pre-historic riddims, utterly melodic snatches of techno wizardry are here set forth. Most were sold in Europe; grab what few are left from Fusetron. Comes in clear bag with clear inserts with track listing, musician credits (no small feat that!), and instructions for a performance piece called Fangs of Lucifer which we dare you to try, but not unsupervised." - Old Gold.
"Its dada and Romper Room, punk and situationist, naive art and sophistry. Eccentricity is just the beginning." - Thomas Peake.
Artist: ZANDOSIS Title: Format: Triple CDR Box Set Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $22.00 |
"Too many recordings piling up, so we said: boxset. Over 3 hours of sounds ranging from early-70s-European-improv and ambient metal to an hour-long piece involving ping pong balls and feathers and, of course, everyones favorite "George W. Bush Go Straight to Fucking Hell." Actually, three or four versions of that one, real fierce like. All lovingly drawn labels and sleeves, a black-and-white booklet, in a box with color cover and a Cyrillic title. Edition of 23. Sold out." - Old Gold. |
Artist: ZANDOSIS Title: Black Bomb ATL Format: CDR Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $9.00 |
"45-minute cdr of live assault capturing the three-sided dice of the mighty Zandosis. Includes our Christmas show in historic Auburn Avenue soul/reggae club; an old-school-Merzbow set; and the infamous Stickfigure showcase set with a crowd so in-tune we want to bear their children. Edition of 26 lettered A-Z in painted/screen printed/glued AOL tri-fold case thing. Sold Out." - Old Gold. |
Artist: ZANDOSIS Title: Chasing Ghosts Format: Cass Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $4.50 |
"Sounds like Zandosis first PSF release, just in time for 1974. Les Rallizes Denudes plus Kaoru Abe and a weather damaged reel of ?-inch tape. Merzbow, Nihilist Spasm Band, Blowhole and Gorgoroth are not so much analogues as they are (lost) reference points. The ancient easterners used to believe that when they ate animals, they took on their spirit, their properties. Here, Zandosis does that very thing by ingurgitating the zeitgeist of Cages "1st Construction in Metal," Merzbows "Rainbow Electronics," and the writings of Emile Cioran. Like Cioran---and Suzuki, even---Zandosis are adept at unclothing despair and laying bare its humor. If chasing ghosts is supposed to take you somewhere, then its to a Cambodian whorehouse where the porch folk sit all day and watch townies get mauled by rabid dogs. Think on this; add some teriyaki, sake and warm Budweiser and youll know where theyre comin from. Highly recommended." - Copper Green, 2004. |
Artist: ZANDOSIS Title: Z vs. W Format: 7" Label: Old Gold Country: USA Price: $5.00 |
"In January of 2000, we got together with no pre-conceived notion of what wed sound like. T-Def (Charlie Parker, Free Bass, "Destroy All Music" on WREK FM) was known to be loud, frantic, noisy and deliberately so. Stewart (formerly of William Carlos Williams, Lustmordem, At War with Satan, and PissChrist) played drums with a tiny Han Bennink on one shoulder and a tiny Dave Lombardo on the other. I had an alto saxophone, a microphone and a borrowed amp. Together, the sky would be the limit or the sky would fall. Fast forward to March of 2003. That motherfucker George W. Bush is sending the country (and its young men and women) to fight a pre-emptive war for no real good reason. Wed been playing very free, early-FMP/Haters style music, and focused our sonic output on those pushing this invasion. The result was about 15 short bursts of energy directed at 15 members of the Project for the New American Century. It felt good. Damn good, in fact. And it sounded good. The next time we played live, we played this new hardcore set. The lazy art crowd in the house enjoyed it. We dug it, too, sent it to the Czech Republic, pressed it onto 220 heavy vinyl records, wrapped them in print shop cleaner paper, and are unleashing it on the world. Chris may list the song titles. He may not. Either way: "Colin Powell Uncle Tom" was omitted by the pressing plant, so if you want to hear that song, gather two of your friends, count to four real fast and start screaming liar and/or fucker or any combination of the two while your friends unleash a torrent of rage. When youre done, say sell out." - Marshall Avett; Old Gold. |

I do not have this particular model, but I made a lot of experiments with many of these mirror-based, single-sensor cameras, and the results are generally quite bad: poor resolution, problems with reflections on the transparent cover, and the worst is that all of them have severe limitation in the vertical angle. in practice, the output is 360° horizantally, but just 40° or 50° vertically, hence these objects are not "really" 360°x180°, and I think that should not be confused with real immersive cameras, such as the Ricoh Theta. Perhaps we should even not cover these mirror-based cameras on this forum...

Adena Health System welcomes Rheumatologist, Kenneth Van Dyke, DO. His addition to the Adena Medical Group helps to fill a great need in the region for patients looking for a rheumatologist. Until Dr. Van Dyke's arrival, patients have had to travel out of the area for care. Rheumatology involves the treatment of autoimmune conditions and inflammatory disease of the joints and connective tissue.
Dr. Van Dyke is certified through the American Board of Internal Medicine, specializing in Rheumatology. He looks forward to building his practice at Adena and getting to know his patients. Dr. Van Dyke explains why Adena is a perfect fit for him. "Growing up in a small town myself, I know it's never the easiest thing to get certain specialties close by," he said. "In a way, it's kind of gratifying to be available for a population that didn't necessarily have the help they needed before."
Dr. Van Dyke attended Des Moines University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Iowa. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine at Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, and a fellowship in Rheumatology at Louisiana State University's Health Science Center, located in New Orleans, LA.
Following his fellowship, Dr. Van Dyke was honored with The Distinguished Fellow Award, which is sponsored by The American College of Rheumatology. The Award recognizes the nation's best clinical and research fellows in the field of Rheumatology.
To schedule an appointment with Dr. Van Dyke patients may call (740) 542-4000.
