Epilepsy is the fourth most common central nervous system disorder (neurological disorder) in which nerve cell movement in the brain becomes disturbed, causing seizures or periods of rare behavior, sensations and at times loss of consciousness.
Most of the people with suffering from Epilepsy have more than one form of seizure and might have other symptoms of neurological hitches as well.
At times, EEG testing, medical history, family history, and outlook are alike among a group of people with affected with epilepsy. In these conditions, their situation can be defined as a specific epilepsy syndrome.
The human brain is the source of human epilepsy. This seizure may affect any part of the human body, due to the electrical events that occur in the brain. Any person diagnosed with Epilepsy obviously contains one or more seizures that were not caused by some well-known and reversible medical condition like alcohol withdrawal or particularly low blood sugar.
The seizures in Epilepsy might be related to a brain damage or a family affinity, but often the source is completely unknown. The word "Epilepsy" does not specify anything about the source of the person's seizures or their sternness.
Nearly 1 in 26 people in the United States is suffering from a seizure disorder. Nearly 10 percent of persons might have a single unprovoked seizure. Conversely, a single seizure doesn't tell that you have epilepsy. At least two unprovoked seizures are usually required for an Epilepsy diagnosis.
Different Types of Seizures
1. Partial seizure
A partial seizure depicts that the epileptic activity took place in a particular part of the patient's brain. There are two kinds of partial seizures-
Simple Partial Seizure –
The patient stays conscious during this type of seizure. In most of the cases, the patient is also conscious of his/her surroundings, although the seizure is in the development stage.
Complex Partial Seizure –
Here, the patient's consciousness is lessened. Normally, the patient will not remember the seizure, and if he/she does, the remembrance of it will be ambiguous.
2. Generalized Seizure
A generalized seizure follows when both halves of the human brain have epileptic activity. The patient's consciousness will be lost while the seizure is in advancement stage.
3. Secondary Generalized Seizure
A secondary generalized seizure arises when the epileptic activity twitches as a partial seizure but then extends to both halves of the brain. As this progression happens, the patient loses his/her consciousness.
Symptoms of Epilepsy
The core symptoms of epilepsy are recurrent seizures. There are specific symptoms which may point out a person has epilepsy. If one or more of these symptoms are observed a medical examination is advised, particularly if they persist-
1) A seizure with no fever
2) Short spells of the clampdown or disordered memory.
3) Recurrent fainting spells, during which bladder control is lost. This is habitually followed by extreme wooziness.
4) For a small period of time, the person is unsympathetic to directives or questions.
5) The person becomes firm, suddenly, for no apparent reason
6) The person abruptly falls for no strong reason
7) Sudden spells of blinking without obvious stimuli
8) Sudden attacks of chewing, without any obvious reason
9) For a short time, the person seems astonished, and not capable of communicating
10) Repetitive movements that appear incorrect
11) The person becomes dreadful for no apparent reason, he/she might even panic or become irritated
12) Abnormal changes in senses, such as smell, touch, and sound
13) The hands, legs, or body jerk, in babies these will seem as a bunch of rapid jerking actions.
Treatments for Epilepsy
When the diagnosis of seizures or epilepsy is done, the doctor will then talk with the patient or the patient's relatives /family regarding the paramount treatment options of Epilepsy.
If a primary correctable brain disorder was causing the seizures, occasionally surgery might stop them. If the epilepsy is diagnosed the doctor will advise the top most seizure-preventing drugs or anti-epileptic drugs.
If the drugs are of no use, the next choice could be a surgery, a distinct diet or VNS (vagus nerve stimulation). Trigeminal nerve stimulation might also be operative, based on this study.
The doctor's intention is to avoid further seizures from happening, while at the same time evading side-effects so that the patient might lead a usual, active, and fruitful life
Anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs)
The common AEDSs are taken orally. Based on the type of seizure the patient is having, the doctor will decide which drug should be prescribed. We are not supposed to react in the similar way to drugs as we do not have proper experience and may have dreadful side effects if we won't use proper medication.
Some drugs efficiently stop further seizures from happening with one patient who has a particular type of epilepsy, while the other patient with the same kind will experience no profit from that identical drug. Even if the right drug is found, it could consume some time to find out the ideal dose.
AEDs are targeted at modifying the structures and procedures involved during the growth of a seizure; together with neurons, receptors, ion passages, and inhibitory or excitatory synapses. Inhibition is activated to stop or avoid seizure activity.
Children can use the same AEDs as grown-ups. They might be present as tablets, capsules, maple syrups or sprinklers. As in the case of handling adults, AEDs are aimed to prevent seizures.
Some are efficient with a restricted number of types of seizure, while others might treat a wider range. Doctors will effort to control seizures with only one drug, but some children might require taking more than one.
The accomplishment of childhood AEDs also considers to a great extent on defiance - following guidelines carefully.

This is an ongoing issue over many versions. I just haven't complained about it until now because it's not a serious problem.
When starting up a FreeBSD guest with the guest additions installed, the first three mouse clicks always have no effect.
The 4th and subsequent clicks behave normally.
The mouse moves fine and mouse-over actions work from the beginning.
Are you talking about mouse in an X11-session, or in the text mode (with moused)?
X11 session, thanks.
BTW, you can download a FreeBSD guest that exhibits the symptom here:
Ooops, forgot to mention... VM login credentials at
Any thoughts about this?
I just installed a TrueOS desktop system in VirtualBox and it exhibits the same symptom.
If you can suggest what to look at, I'd be happy to patch and test the port myself.

Heartwood Box by Ann Aguirre is a book that I picked up unsure of what to expect. It is thrilling and mysterious, and it blends multiple genres to create something that I have never seen before. I enjoyed the main character and her determination to makes things right in her new town, however the ending didn't work out for me, and it impacted my enjoyment of the book. This is still a fantastic read, but I would have enjoyed a different outcome. Continue reading

Book Review: Only Ever Her
Only Ever Her by Marybeth Mayhew Whalen is a book that has so much potential. The concept is one that is really intriguing, but the execution of the plot falls flat.

Associate Officials Nomination Process
We want to maximize the officiating opportunities for the successful AO candidates. The nomination process is designed to ensure that the AO's get on the local Town program's radar for assignments. By having the local Town AO Contact nominate the AO's for the training, we know that they will be in the queue for assignments. There is some flexibility with the nomination process – we will accept candidates without a formal nomination from a town, but we make them aware that we cannot provide any degree of assurance that they will get assignments.
Nominations will start on January 15, 2020. The deadline for Nominations is February 17, 2020. This will accomodate towns that may get a late start on the process.
Please forward your nominees to either your Regional Referee Coordinator (listed below) or directly to me at firstname.lastname@example.com .
Registration Process
The first group of AO Nominees will be contacted on January 15, 2020. These are the returning AO's from 2019 who will need re-certication. They will be given instructions for Registration in the 2020 program and for enrolling in one of the mandatory certification classes. This part of the process will run from JANUARY 15 to FEBRUARY 17, 2020. The Registration fee will be the same as it was in 2019, $45 per candidate. Payment options include online (eCheck or credit card) or by check.
Class Signups
Registered candidates will be asked to select from one of the initial 15 class offerings. The class dates and times will be posted on the Enrollment page with the Enrollment form http://emloa.org/associate-officials/class-enrollment/ .
Once the candidate signs up, he will get a confirmation note for their class along with a pre-training package including classroom materials and a pre-test.
Once the NEW candidate completes the classroom training and testing, he/she will enter into the Mentoring phase of the training. Upon successful completion of the Mentoring and Evaluation phase, the candidate will become a fully certified Associate Official.

Office designs have always included an element of "Big Brother is watching." Whether it's through having managers sit at the back of the cubicle row so they can stand up and evaluate if people look on-task, or through the giant "fish pool" design, there was always a feeling of being watched. While accountability and productivity are just as important as ever, trust matters more than manager vigilance. Here are a few changes that can make that oppressive 1980s office feel go away:
Not everyone works well in a cubicle, and not everyone works well when they're surrounded by neighbors without dividing walls. Create an office with seating options so people can go where they're comfortable. With instant messaging, it's easy enough to find and communicate with people no matter where they're sitting.
Get rid of the natural order of seating. New employees don't have to sit at the front or at the end. Managers don't need to be able to physically oversee everyone from the back. Even executives should mingle in the communal seating. While there are some constraints — documents need to be protected and sometimes calls have to be behind closed doors — that shouldn't be the case 24/7.
This is less of a direct style mandate than it is a cultural element, but it still comes through in your office design. Loosen up the schedule so people can get their work done when it works for them, especially if that flexibility doesn't hurt customer service. Not only will employees stay longer with a company that doesn't tap a watch at them, that opens up more of the seating so everyone in the office is comfortable.
For all of the tools and design plans to put your office in 2024 instead of 1984, contact us at Studio Other.

I awaken to the orchestra of noise on day two of camper-van life. It has rained non stop all night and at the moment the storms seem to have depleted. I recall waking in the night and realising that the rain had uninvitingly entered the Martha. This morning Martha had a damp smell about her and felt too warm to be in. Unfortunately my lack of knowledge of camper-vaning had made me forget to bring my now sodden shoes inside during the night. This added to the collection of soggy clothes being hung to dry in the very confined space including two adults, making it feel very cosy.
In my naivety I had forgotten that the rainforest meant there would be rain and not just a shower but full on constant wetness. It is 30 degrees and I realise that even if it stopped raining I would be wet from the humidity. As if that wasn't enough to deal with, there are crocs here. Crocs who have the speed and ability to snag themselves a human dinner and despite being reassured by a one armed man that taking a dip in the ocean is safe, I for one am not willing to try.
Myall Beach is where the noise of the rainforest meets the sound of the crashing ocean. A short walk along the beach leads us to the wooden path winds of Dubuji Boardwalk. Mangrove trees with their roots above the ground supporting the trunk in the bogs containing the vocal frogs, red and black crabs and peppermint stick insects (which fire a peppermint spray towards predators). Here too are jungle fowl roaming freely, spiders building the most delicate but perhaps fearsome webs and mosquitoes hoovering, ready to bite.
Our stay at PK's has been memorable. The site has a great pool to cool off in and a large bar, eating area to stay dry in. There are a mix of ages of people who stay in camper-vans and lodges. Oh and did I mention the snakes and the Cassowary birds? Thankfully I haven't encountered either…..yet…..I think?!?!

North Dakota Cannabis is Officially Front and Center
The young North Dakota cannabis industry put themselves front and center in the news this past week. Not even two full years ago they voted in medical cannabis, and before they even have a facility open for that, they announce a recreational usage vote. This is not just any old set of regulations like we've seen practically everywhere. As far as many are concerned, they don't have many, if any regulations at all. As a citizen, you'll be able to have as much on you as you'd like, and if you're planning on growing it, there will be no limits on the amount. I'll say that again. There will be no limits on a grower's plant count!
This was the piece of legislation that sent shockwaves through the country. No limits? Seriously think about what that means for that state and its citizens.
North Dakota has a so much wide open space to utilize. Ranches and farms are a major part of that state's economy. They gave its landowners and entrepreneurs an opportunity to be the largest producers of recreational cannabis in America, and as far as I know, anywhere on earth. In my opinion, it will pass easily when it's voted on in November. They will make so many states look foolish and greedy as they blow past them in their legalization efforts.
They are a state that much like Oklahoma, votes red year after year. A few months ago, it was Oklahoma that said yes to medical cannabis. Their laws were applauded for lack of big government regulation seen in states like California, Washington, and Colorado. The citizens that make up this North Dakota cannabis industry are really progressive in their long-term thinking. If it gets repealed federally and it's allowed to travel across state lines, they will be able to offer absurdly low prices to everyone nationwide because of the sheer volume of plants producing flower. Imagine being the farmer who has slaved away selling veggies decade after decade. Things are going to be looking up when they can sell tons of cannabis each week. Literally tons of it if they want to grow it!
What about the average citizen that doesn't want to pay retail for their medicine? Feel free to grow as much as you'd like if this bill passes! 1,000 plants legally in the backyard can be possible next year in the great state of North Dakota if the voters turn out how they did in 2016. Imagine getting pulled over by the police with 500 pounds and just getting a ticket for the blown taillight you keep forgetting to replace. Amazingly enough, North Dakota is trying to set that scenario into play.
I've seen first hand how heavily regulated the industry has become living in Denver, Colorado. The Marijuana Enforcement Division can't seem to find enough things to regulate, and just when the industry spends an arm and a leg getting prepared to do business one way, they will change something minor and make owners flush thousands down the toilet on products now useless. Those obsessive regulations are causing plenty of companies to cut as many corners as possible trying to stay afloat. When you cut corners, your quality suffers, and there is no debating that.
So only time will tell how this turns out. Even if the vote fails, South Dakotans still have medical coming to their citizens, and that's a beautiful thing regardless. But the amazing set of laws laid out by the group in charge of gathering the votes is groundbreaking, and hopefully, they set a new standard on how new states will write their laws into place. No matter what, the North Dakota cannabis industry made big noise with this announcement. I personally will be keeping my eyes on this and hope to see the citizens of North Dakota show up and make it a reality.

Fujifilm's instax instant cameras are great, but you would have only the instax prints as memories.
Many wish to store these candid moments digitally as well. Fujifilm has heard you and launched the new Instax Square SQ10.
The SQ10, which looks like just another instax camera with its square appearance, is actually a digital camera with a built-in instax printer.
You can save your photos in the camera's internal memory (up to 50 photos) or on a microSD card. You can also choose to print a photo immediately or print later.
The SQ10 uses the new instax Square format (1:1) prints. Flip open the rear compartment to load a pack of 10 instax Square prints ($16.90 per pack). At the rear, you will also find a 3-inch LCD screen that works as a viewfinder.
Below the LCD screen, there is a circle of six control buttons that encircle a command dial and a main Menu/OK button. The top three control buttons let you change filters, exposure and vignetting. The bottom three buttons are for playback, print and back functions.
The command dial not only allows you to change settings easily, but it also provides an intuitive way for you to edit and process the photos.
In front, a large metallic circular dial encircles the centrally positioned lens. Turning this dial clockwise powers up the camera.
Above this dial, there are two buttons where your index fingers will rest when you hold the SQ10. By default, both buttons function as the shutter release.
IMAGE SENSOR: 1/4-inch CMOS
LENS: 28.5mm f/2.4
DISPLAY: 3-inch LCD with 460,000 dots
SENSITIVITY: ISO 100 to 1,600
WEIGHT: 450g (including film pack and battery)
But you can customise one of the buttons for toggling through the three shooting modes, namely Standard, Bulb and Double Exposure.
Standard is the auto mode. The Bulb mode lets you capture long exposure shots of up to 10sec, while the Double Exposure mode allows you to overlay one frame over another in a single photo.
On the left is a switch that lets you toggle between Manual and Auto. If the Auto mode is turned on, the SQ10 will immediately print out the photo you have taken. But, on Manual mode, the photo you have taken will not be printed immediately.
I would recommend putting the SQ10 in Manual mode permanently, as it gives you much more flexibility. You can apply filters and change the amount of vignetting before you print out the photo.
Operation-wise, this is not a fast camera. It takes 2.6sec to power up, and 1.6sec to shut down. Autofocusing can take up to 2sec even in bright sunlight. The camera's metering system tends to overexpose by as much as one stop.
The images captured have a resolution of 1,920 x 1,920 pixels. Thus, you do not get much detailand photos can be quite grainy in low-light conditions.
But image quality is generally good for social media, like Instagram, and for instax prints.
After you select a photo and press OK to print, the picture will "move" up from the LCD as its instax print slowly emerges from the top of the camera. It takes 13.2sec for the printing process to finish after you press print. A fully charged battery is good for 160 prints, provided no pictures are taken. During the review, I shot around 360 images mixed with nine prints before the battery went flat.
The instax print quality is typical of such instant photos. While it is better than Zinke prints, the colours of the instax prints look slightly off from how they look on the LCD screen.
In addition, there is no way to transfer the photos to your smartphone via Bluetooth or vice versa.
But you can transfer photos taken by the SQ10 to your computer using the microSD card. You can also transfer photos taken with other cameras into the SQ10 via a microSD card, to print them as instax Square prints. It is a bit of a hassle, but it can be done.
•Verdict: For parties and travelling, the Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 is a great ice-breaker and fun camera to take along.

Lockheed Martin recognizes Syntonics LLC with Electronic Systems' STAR Supplier Award for Exceptional Quality Performance on Persistent Surveillance Aerostat ProgramCOLUMBIA, MD. March 11, 2011 . . . Syntonics LLC, based in Columbia, Md., a leading supplier of RF-over-fiber products, was awarded the coveted Electronics System STAR Award from Lockheed Martin for its ability to meet the quality and delivery requirements during 2010 on an U.S. Army persistent surveillance aerostat program. This award, citing "Exceptional Quality Performance," demonstrates that a small company can make a difference to the war effort in Afghanistan. The aerostat program has increasingly been cited "an excellent example of how the aerostat can be useful" (U.S. Army source). Created in 1999, the Lockheed Martin STAR Supplier program recognizes its top performing suppliers.
In presenting the award, Carole E. Hinchcliffe, Sourcing Manager, Integrated Defense Technologies, Lockheed Martin said, "Identifying Syntonics as a STAR Supplier exemplifies Lockheed's corporate value, 'Perform With Excellence.'". While accepting the award during a ceremony in Columbia, MD, Syntonics President Bruce Montgomery said, "Fielding the new HARC communications relay capability for the warfighter is important work and the Syntonics Team is proud to have had this opportunity to support Lockheed Martin and its Army customer."
Syntonics' product quality and on-time performance while making multiple deliveries of their FORAX-HARC (High Antennas for Radio Communications) product were the basis for this award. HARC, the latest version of the proven FORAX RF-over-fiber product, enables any tethered aerostat to be used as a very high antenna tower, increasing line of site and coverage of radio communications.
The FORAX product line, deployed since 2004 by U.S. DoD, FBI and FEMA as well as some foreign militaries, moves antennas away from command posts; eliminates the electronic and visual signature of nearby antennas; increases the security of people and equipment in the CP and enables radios and crypto equipment to be operated from inside SCIFs. Syntonics is currently working on FORAX Modules for WNW/SRW and ANW2 to add to its already-fielded HF, GPS, EPLRS, SINCGARS, VHF/UHF, 3GPP, and UHF TACSAT modules. To date, Syntonics' FORAX equipment is fielded in over 45 installations in the US and abroad.
Syntonics is a defense electronics company that produces FORAX RF-over-fiber communication systems for military radios and innovative antennas for military applications. For more information on Syntonics and its products, please see the company's website at www.SyntonicsCorp.com.

We were fortunate enough to be included in the Shanti Star recipe book Cacao Addict and couldn't be more honoured! This recipe is from their epic book and includes our full power Mason's Mushrooms. We hope you enjoy!
Damiana Infused Mushroom Cacao Chocolates
This recipe is quite unique in that I feel it has a lot of alchemy in the mix. Damiana is a beautiful herb that has been used (historically) as an aphrodisiac and relaxant, and when combined with cinnamon, cacao and medicinal mushrooms – WOW!
I feel that each time I make these that their energy deserves something special, so I shake gold dust into the chocolate moulds to really elevate them.
You can buy damiana leaves dried from health food shops, and they also make a great tea.
Place a set of chocolate moulds on a baking tray. To make an infused butter, add the cacao butter and damiana to a small saucepan and put on low heat for 45 minutes to an hour, or in the TM on heat 50, speed 2. When your butter is ready, strain it through a fine sieve into a separate jug.
Using a glass bowl or a Thermomix, add the strained cacao butter and all other ingredients and mix thoroughly to create a smooth chocolate batter (TM speed 3, 2 minutes).
Pour into moulds, refrigerate for 45 minutes or until set. Devour, savouring the flavour and effects.

Love PlayStation? Love Nike? Perfect, because these are the kicks for you — even if you don't like basketball.
George Paul, small forward on the Oklahoma City Thunder, worked with Nike and Sony to create the PG-2 "PlayStation" sneakers, one of the nerdiest, tech-infused sneakers ever created.
Designed by Tony Hardman, the same lead designer behind Paul's first sneaker, the PG-1, the new model (in case it wasn't already completely obvious) is inspired by a PlayStation 4 and its DualShock 4 controller.
Paul says he wanted to make a PlayStation-themed sneaker because he considers himself "one of the biggest gamers in the NBA" and he's taken his gaming with him everywhere, ever since he received a PlayStation 2 for Christmas as kid. Read more…

In Their Own Words: The Impact of a New Coat
Without our thousands of funding and coat distribution partners, Operation Warm would not have been able to bring happiness and warmth to 300,000 children last winter. We recently surveyed over 800 coat distribution partner schools and organizations about our program's impact, and here's what they had to say:
"All of our scholars wear their coats daily. It is awesome!" – Kelly Carideo-Graves, Harford Heights Elementary School, Baltimore, MD
"Some of our students come to us with such needs in many areas and school budgets don't cover personal needs (socks, underwear, coats, etc.) for our students. It is such a blessing to have organizations like Operation Warm to help us in our mission here." – Brenda Young, Nicholson STEM Academy, Chicago, IL
"Students were smiling. Some were overjoyed. Some were very excited. Some were very grateful and expressed their gratitude weeks after the distribution had taken place." – Rufina Brown, Parker Elementary School, Chicago, IL
"The children were just tickled. They were very proud of their new coat, and stood taller as soon as they put it on." – Laura Milazzo Mackiewicz, La Comunidad Hispana, Kennett Square, PA
Moments like these are the end result of year-round work by Operation Warm, and you can help when you join our monthly giving program. Your gift of only $10 a month provides six brand new winter coats that positively impact vulnerable young lives. Thank you for bringing children this most basic need, which makes them feel special, encourages school attendance on cold winter days, and is a financial blessing to their families.

Countdown: Top 5 interviews
by Tim Weilert on May.05, 2011, under "Best of" Lists, Videos
When I started doing this blog video (and audio) interviews coming from the Denver scene were very few and far between. Nowadays it's great because many other people in town do video interviews. I've never been a big fan of reading transcriptions, so I decided to focus most of my reviews on the video format. I got to talk with a lot of great people over the years, here's a few of my favorites:
Young Coyotes – March 21, 2009: The first interview we ever "officially" did was Young Coyotes. At the time they were just beginning to gain some momentum with a Daytrotter session and trip to SXSW in addition to getting Westword's "best new band" award.
Danielle Ate The Sandwich – July 13, 2009: Another chat with someone who got big shortly after we talked, Danielle Ate The Sandwich sat down with me before a set at Everyday Joe's in Fort Collins. Danielle was one of our favorite local acts because her songs were so beautiful, while her live performances captured her quirky humor.
Virgil Dickerson (Suburban Home Records) – July 22, 2009: While this interview isn't with a band, it is with someone who has had an impact on Denver music. Virgil Dickerson and local label Suburban Home Records had several projects that we covered over the years, including a collaboration with burrito joint Illegal Pete's.
Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band – August 1, 2010: After seeing Rev. Peyton at Warped Tour in Denver in 2009, I couldn't help but try to get an interview when I covered the tour again in 2011 (this time in Chicago). This one stands out because I think Peyton and his wife were one of the friendliest interview-subjects I ever encountered.
The Knew - September 13, 2010: I know I already talked about The Knew in the last Countdown post, but I think it goes without saying that they're one of my favorites. After covering a handful of their shows I finally sat down with the group in September of last year before the release of their newest 7″- Before It Ends.
UMS Preview: "Who?" (7/22) & (7/23)
by Tim Weilert on Jul.16, 2010, under Blogs
Before I get to the question "How?" there's the little matter of who to see at this year's UMS. While this list is by no means a picking of "who's hot and who's not," it might be useful for those not well versed in the Colorado music scene. This post covers the first two days, July 22-23.
Act So Big Forest Showcase (Skylark, 7pm-12am): Featuring some of the best music that Fort Collins has to offer, the Act So Big Forest collective has their own showcase during the UMS. Swing by the Skylark any time on Thursday to catch the likes of Good Evening Titan, Paean, Sour Boy Bitter Girl, and Candy Claws. Roger, Roll will be closing out the evening's showcase.
Hot White (3 Kings, 9pm): Don't be surprised if somebody gets a beer thrown at them during Hot White's set. The trio packs quite a punch and doesn't take crap from anybody.
Ian Cooke Band (Hi-Dive, 11pm): The always enjoyable Ian Cooke will be playing a full band set. Hopefully he'll play "Spicy Chicken Crunchwrap Supreme" or whatever that song is actually called.
Paper Bird (Hi-Dive, 11:55pm): Why not end the evening feeling joyful? Paper Bird takes on the Hi-Dive's closing spot on Thursday but will also play a set at 7:30 pm on Friday at the Goodwill lot stage.
A Mouthful of Thunder (TS Boardshop, 6:30pm): We haven't actually had a chance to see Stephen Till's newest musical project since Hearts of Palm broke up (and started playing again). However, hopes are high for what AMoT's MySpace page dubs "Christian Rap/Punk/Regional Mexican."
Action Packed Thrill Ride (Club 404, 7pm): Last time I saw Action Packed Thrill Ride my roommate got me really drunk. As I try to recall, it was pretty great; although the morning after was a bit rough. Maybe this time we'll all be a little more sober (or maybe not?).
Kaiser Cartel (Hi-Dive, 8pm): I saw KaiserCartel a couple times during last year's UMS. The Brooklyn-based duo is one of the few out-of-town acts playing, so be sure to catch this set.
Lil Slugger (Brown Barrel Tavern, 9pm): These guys are the only band I know that has their own series of comics. Also, a free full length album to download via Hot Congress.
11:55pm: Take Your Pick: Why do they always do this? There are definitely more than 4 bands I'd like to see all playing at the same time. Oh well, catch them if you can. Houses (Hi-Dive), Achille Lauro (Club 404), Fellow Citizens (Skylark), Young Coyotes (Irish Rover) and more.
Throw Back: Hot IQs 7″ release show
by Tim Weilert on Jun.20, 2010, under Photos
Once upon a time there was a band called Hot IQs. They were probably my first exposure to local music, among other things. While on winter break freshman year (a few months before starting SLS) I happened to win tickets to their annual Christmas show (which was also celebrated the release of the Houndstooth 7″) from KCSU. Armed with a 3.2 megapixel camera (most cell phones have better cameras these days) I snapped these few photos then promptly forgot about them for a couple years.

In Photos – Young Coyotes at the Meadowlark
by Tim Weilert on Apr.19, 2010, under Photos
It was pretty quiet at the Meadowlark last night as Young Coyotes played a show with I Am The Dot and The Photo Atlas. Those who did manage to get away from the Avs game were treated to an intimate performance.

The alternate universes of Young Coyotes
by Tim Weilert on Feb.22, 2010, under Concert Reviews
Despite the fact that Young Coyotes have now played a handful of "final shows" over the last few months; Adam Halferty and Zach Tipton decided to come together at the Hi-Dive to showcase their respective side-projects and play once again as Young Coyotes.
Adam Halferty's band American Tomahawk opened up the night and I was immediately intrigued. Wielding a guitar, rather than his normal drum kit, Halferty played through a solid set of reverb drenched pop songs with the help of his band (which consisted of members of another local group, The Photo Atlas).
Zach Tipton's project I Am The Dot took the stage armed only with a laptop, two drums, a microphone, and a spiral of red light. Tipton, who has been steadily releasing EPs in a genre he has titled "Apocalypse Pop," played a few new songs in addition to some of his more established tunes ("Love Song for Camus" was my personal favorite).
Adding to the eclectic nature of the show, hip-hop duo The Pirate Signal got the typically reserved Hi-Dive crowd dancing, moving, and "jigglin'." MC Yonnas rapped about everything from going on Warped Tour to finding "Love in the time of Swine Flu" while DJ A-What kept the beats pumping.
For the final set of the night Young Coyotes shed their normal acoustic set-up to play an electric set. While this slight change didn't really alter their sound, it certainly added a dynamic not previously seen. One of the highlights of the set was the song "Hammering," a newer tune that has no official recording (and will likely remain un-released). Toward the end of the set it became obvious that both Halferty and Tipton were feeling the effects of playing two full sets that night. However, they still managed to end strong, leaving the crowd pleased as the night came to an end.

by Tim Weilert on Nov.25, 2009, under Concert Reviews
The Bluebird was cold and quiet on Tuesday night as a dedicated few came out for Young Coyotes and Fiery Furnaces. With a rather unassuming attitude everything played through with a sort of simple, laid-back vibe.
Young Coyotes started the night up by playing what they were calling "Possibly our last show." Although unclear about whether any other subsequent appearances are in the works, it did not appear that Young Coyotes would be calling it quits for all of eternity. In fact, they played a couple of new songs which I though were better than some of their previous material. "Hammering" showed a certain maturity both musically and lyrically. Overall, the set was drenched in reverb and a superb way to start the evening. Also noteworthy: Zach Tipton's 'fro has gone from great to epic.
Fiery Furnaces took the stage and I did not know what to expect. Having only seen a few videos of the group online I was unprepared for the delightfully fuzzy guitars and constant time-shifts. While the near-constant change-ups kept the growing crowd on its toes, they eventually became a little predictable and thus some people started loosing interest in the music. The Fiery Furnaces set as a whole was still quite enjoyable: a rowdy mix of blues, surf, jazz, punk, and rock.
Concert Calendar Update
by Tim Weilert on Nov.24, 2009, under Blogs
Hey everyone, here are a few shows of note:
TONIGHT: Young Coyotes and Fiery Furnaces (Bluebird, 8pm). Rumored to be Young Coyotes last show, if you haven't seen this dynamic duo yet this might be your last chance. While you're at it, download our compilation, they're on there with "When I Was In The Fire."
December 4: Take, Candy Claws, & Old Radio (Lion's Lair, 9pm). See Candy Claws live and in person (as opposed to their global internet tour). Also, Old Radio puts on quite an enjoyable show (not to mention this one is only $5, so don't miss it). Celebrate National Cookie Day in style!
December 12: Hot Congress CD Release Show (Oriental, 8pm). A few weeks back we covered the Hot Congress Prevue Party and picked up a copy of their very first compilation. Well, now they're giving it a proper celebration and release. Performing that night will be Achille Lauro, Vitamins, Fissure Mystic, and Action Packed Thrill Ride.
December 12: The Wheel with Houses, Bad Weather California, Snake Rattle Rattle Snake, Taun Taun and more! (Bluebird, 8pm). If there was ever a show that combined a bunch of my favorite local bands it would be this one. Unfortunately you'll have to choose because it's also on Dec. 12.
December 18: Flashbulb Fires CD Release Show (Hi-Dive, 10pm). We've got a full review of this group's first full-length Glory coming next week and I can tell you that it is definitely worth checking out. Also playing that night: Danielle Ate The Sandwich.
December 31: Paper Bird & These United States New Year's Party (Hi-Dive, 9pm). Ring in the New Year with a little bit Paper Bird's brand of "joyful music." Also rock out to the alt-indie goodness that is These United States.
Something Like Sound Presents: Colorado Sounds
by Tim Weilert on Oct.31, 2009, under Blogs, Downloads
When classes ended at the Colorado School of Mines in May of 2009 we got a wild idea: let's curate a compilation of our favorite local acts and give it away for free! Over the span of 6 months we managed to gather a group of songs that reflect the diversity and quality of the Denver music scene. It is my hope that everyone can find a track that they enjoy on this compilation and discover something wonderful and new. Please support the artists who contributed by purchasing their music and attending their concerts.
Track List
1. The Photo Atlas – "Jealous Teeth"
2. The Epilogues – "King Arthur"
4. The Heyday – "Come In Or Stay Out"
5. Red Fox Run – "Remembering"
6. Young Coyotes – "When I Was In The Fire"
8. Hello Kavita – "Sunday (It's A Chrome Tide)"
9. Rob Drabkin – "Sweet Things"
10. Danielle Ate The Sandwich – "Handsome Girl"
I Am The Dot ~ Quantum Thoughts
by Tim Weilert on Oct.22, 2009, under Downloads
Today's post is brought to you by: THE FUTURE… how cosmic! Seriously though, I'm proud to introduce the newest song from I Am The Dot as a free download right here. I Am The Dot, as a quick refresher (because you already know this stuff, right?) is the solo project of Zach Tipton, who currently resides in Denver and plays with Young Coyotes (one of our favorite local groups). He's produced a four track EP, which is downloadable over at Get Off The Coast. A mix of Motown melodies and beatbox-esque percussion, Zach has managed to create some really unique songs.
The download for today is a new song, not on the EP. "Quantum Thoughts" was recorded as a part of the Denver Show and Tell Project. Each month the curators of the project select a different theme and receive submissions from local artists. According to Zach, "This month was supposed to be a 'future' song, or something that sounds like it could be recorded way out in the future."
DOWNLOAD "QUANTUM THOUGHTS" (right click "Save As")
The best things on the web are FREE
by Tim Weilert on Sep.20, 2009, under Downloads
It's high time that I sat down and pointed you in all directions at once. All over the web there are great, free & legal downloads from some of Colorado's finest (bands, that is… the police don't really have much out there). Just click on the images to go to the places.
Savoy – Self-Titled EP: The entire thing is free on the group's website. Unfortunately we missed their set at Monolith, but fear not! They're doing a show November 21 at the Bluebird.
Hello Kavita – To A Loved One 2 song sampler. It's been a while since we've heard from these guys, but they're finally releasing another record on October 23 at the Hi-Dive, with Houses and It's True! Even just listening to the 2 sample tracks, I'm excited for what these guys have in store.
Arliss Nancy – Dance To Forget: Fort Collins own answer to Lucero, this record is technically a $5 donation, but you could get it for free if you really like. Click back a few pages to see our review.
Rob Drabkin – On These Heavy Feet: Rob's still got this link up for people to download his full length. He did it as a way of saying "Thank You" for all the cool stuff that his fans have helped him with this summer.
Dualistics – Last Call single: Featuring the sharp new song "Last Call" and a great b-side "Sabbatical," this is a must download for fans of solid rock music. The file also contains a few tracks from this group's self-titled EP.
Pretty Lights – Discography: Pick up Filling Up The City Skies and Taking Up Your Precious Time for free from the Fort Collins-based group. Definitely listen to "Solamente." Also, just announced, the new Pretty Lights record Passing Behind Your Eyes will be available October 6.
Drag The River - Live at the Starlight: This long-out-of-print record is still being offered as a free download by our friends at Suburban Home Records. It's a great live album and a bit of CO music history.
Rabbit Is A Sphere – Discography: It was sad to see these guys go on indefinite hiatus, but you can still enjoy their music and a high-quality bootleg via the link.
M. Pyres – Consider Me, Ghost and other FTU albums: Matt Sage of Fort Collins is quickly becoming a lo-fi phenomenon (if there can even be such a thing). Give Consider Me, Ghost a listen, then stay tuned for Apart The Echo, which is coming soon.
Young Coyotes – Basement EP: Possibly one of my favorite recordings released this year, Young Coyotes have their first EP (which was recorded… in a basement) for free on their website.
Cowboy Curse – Nod Up And Down: I first heard this band at the UMS this year. Definitely check out their song "Negative Space."
Alright, that's enough for now, I'll let these build up a bit then do another one in another month or so.

6 or12yrs am i liablegreenspun.com : LUSENET : Repossession : One Thread
I had my house repossessed in 92, heard nothing for at least 6yrs due to the fact that i handed my keys in (no missed payments)i was told that the indemnity insurance covered any shortfall as told by the HALIFAX manager.after 6yrs ive had lots of threatening letters which ive ignored completely.the debt collectors are chasing me for 19,000 approx am i liable for this please can someone help in laymen terms (im a builder with limited brain power) thanks pete
-- peter burrows (email@example.com), January 31, 2003
It seems to me that you have two courses of action.
1. Is to ask the Halifax to prove how the "debt" is made up. This will cause alot of grief and sleepless nights on your part as they will tell all sorts of lies (and get other companies to corroborate them). They will NOT provide you with the proof you ask for and you will have to enter into alot of correspondence. They will take much delight in wasting your time and sending you information that is not relevant. They do this because a lot of people are not aware of their rights and want the matter resolved quickly, so they just pay up and the Halifax gets their money - whether it is due to them or not.
This is not a good idea if you don't have a sharp eye for detail and are not good at arguing, because you have to really FIND their mistakes and point them out with a good argument that they cannot defend. This takes time and good use of the English language. (This is not meant as an insult, everybody has different talents and things they are good at - I can't even wire a plug, let alone build a house!!!)
2. If you are sure of the date when the "debt" occurred, i.e. the date the property was sold, which I presume was in the same year - 1992? You can just carry on ignoring their letters until that date in 2004 and then write back and politely tell them they are out of the limitation period. One would assume that if they haven't set a court date yet, they are not going to.
If you choose this option, you must be absolutely certain of your timing, because writing to them before the 12 years are up could lead to option 1. being your only option!
Whichever course of action you choose, you must NEVER admit any liability for the debt. It would be a good idea to read as much as you can on this site, particulary the Do's and Don'ts section. Fore- warned is fore-armed. I am sure that you will find lots of support and advice on this site to help you.
Good luck.
-- One Angry Mother (email@example.com), January 31, 2003.
There are a couple of points which Tracey appears not to have mentioned. Firstly, the limitation period is 12 years (time in which they can get you) this usually starts from the 2nd or 3rd missed mortgage payment. So for example if you stopped paying your mortgage in November 1990 they may not now be able to pursue you, because they will be barred from doing so (you need to check this with a solicitor though, as it may also depend on what is written in the terms and conditions of your mortgage). Secondly, the Council of Mortgage Lenders have a voluntary 6 year code which states:
"In addition, from 11 February 2000, lenders who are members of the Council of Mortgage Lenders have agreed voluntarily that they will begin all recovery action for the shortfall within the first six years following the SALE of a property in possession. Anyone whose property was taken into possession and sold more than six years ago, and who has not been contacted by their lender about recovering any outstanding debt will not now be asked to pay the shortfall. The Association of British Insurers supports this approach on behalf of the mortgage indemnity insurers.
All lenders which subscribe to the Code have now agreed to adhere to it whether they are a CML member or not. You can check whether a lender subscribes to the Mortgage Code by phoning The Mortgage Code Compliance Board on 01785 218200."
Peter,I would give the number above a ring and check whether this applies in your case. You can go to your local CAB, or contact the National Association of Mortgage Victims, alternatively contact a local solicitor (preferably one who doesn't deal with conveyancing) to get all this checked out by a professional, and receive more direct help.
Look at the good advice on the Home Repo pages, particularly under the Do's and Don'ts.
You need to make the Lender prove the alleged debt. Is the 19,000 they say you are liable for the correct figure. How did they arrive at it? Did they sell your property for a fair price? Ask for the valuations on the property at the time of sale, and try and get independant ones yourself to check whether they've ripped you off or not. If you believe they have, complain to your local MP. I would ask for his assistance anyway. If he's not helpful find another who is.
The MIG isn't worth the paper it's written on, it was just one big con. Basically, you paid for the lender to be insured NOT yourself, so the insurance company can chase you if they have paid out to cover your lender's losses. I would complain about this to your MP too.
You also need to find out whether a Money Judgement Order has been issued by the court. If it has, then (in theory) the lender can chase you indefinitely.
Be very careful at this stage not to acknowledge the debt in any way. If you write to the lender/debt collector, or if any person does so on your behalf (even a solicitor), make it clear that you deny liability and do not admit the debt. If you or a solicitor or advisor working on your behalf does not make this clear then the 12 year period can start afresh from the date of that acknowledgement. This also applies to making a part payment. It's a very important point particularly near the end of the 12 year period. If the 12 years are definitely up you've no worries.
Finally, if you wish, please sign the mortgage shortfall e-petition on 'www.petition-them.com' under 'Help Mortgage Shortfall Victims'.
Hope this helps, if you have any further questions just post them up.
Good Luck, Mark.

I dunno if we would see an English dub if this were localized. Mainly because it's a Vita title...making it hard to have hopes for a localization in the first place. It would certainly be awesome though, I'd buy it. But, I'll import it eventually if I end up having no choice.
I am as adamant about getting Japanese audio as you are in getting an English dub. Hopefully for everyones sake we get dual audio. But I'll take what I can get just to be able to at least understand the game.
But yeah, they respond to what they can on Twitter. Otherwise it's all news and what not.

It's raining books
Oct 01
Once upon a time in a land far, far away…a quaint Swiss town close to France, in a charming place called Romainmôtier there was a used book fair and a book-loving artist named Jan Reymond. Jan wanted to 'give the unsold books a last life before they were thrown away. So he decided to create artistic works throughout his town following each book fair to do just this. Each year Jan creates something different and interesting. I have found pictures for the last five years. Let me share from newest to oldest!
You can see more of this piece here…
it's raining books!, originally uploaded by overthemoon.
The brilliant artist and a map of where his town is…
I can't wait to see what Jan comes up with next year!
Here are some links related to Jan's book creations:
