Bill Foster for Congress
Among the best of the newer Congressional Reps is physicist and business entrepreneur Bill Foster of Illinois. He may be more conservative than I like, but then again his district leans conservative and he is without a doubt one of the most brilliant and accomplished members of Conrgess. Of course the Republicans can't stand him because they seem to hate intelligent, competent people.
About Bill Foster:
Designing, building, and managing some of the most advanced research machines in science, and creating a successful multimillion dollar business from scratch are some of the highlights of Bill Foster's career. A career with dedication and enthusiasm to make changes for the better and bringing progress by problem solving, innovation, hard work, and commitment.
Bill has devoted his energy to making important scientific progress and to building a business that has created jobs for hundreds of people in the United States -- and now Bill is committed to working hard for people here in the 14th Congressional District in Illinois.
Here's the latest video from Bill's campaign:
And from last year:
Bill Foster has been endorsd by more than 30 Nobel Prize winners. Among those endorsements are the following:
"The security of the US in the 21st century requires business, scientific, and engineering solutions as well as military and political. It's essential for our national leadership to be able to tell the difference between truth and false promises. Bill has already shown his talents and he would make a big difference to the safety of our nation."
- John Mather
Nobel Prize Winner
"I am pleased to support Bill Foster in his run for the Congress. As a person with scientific and technical background, he can analyze the large fraction of our national decisions that involve technical issues and work out sensible solutions. Often we seem to be responding to the loudest argumentation, rather than the most thoughtful and suitable propositions."
- John Hall
Nobel Prize Winner
"Bill Foster represents a calm and enlightened voice for science and for reasonable government. We need both if our country is to recover from the past period of anti-intellectualism and partisan bickering. I believe that Bill is a candidate that all citizens can get behind."
- Peter Agre
Nobel Prize Winner
Please visit Bill Foster's website and help his re-election campaign. We really need a brilliant scientist and savvy businessman in Congress these days.

Pat Quinn for Illinois Governor
Pat Quinn has been endorsed by Democracy for America. Here is his statement to DFA:
Governor Pat Quinn has devoted his life to standing up for the working people of Illinois and fighting political corruption, government waste, and unfair taxes. He has earned a national reputation as an honest leader who has never been afraid to speak his mind and battle special interests on behalf of everyday men and women.
Pat Quinn was born in Illinois in 1948, the eldest of P.J. and Eileen Quinn's three sons. After attending Catholic grade school, he attended Fenwick High School in Oak Park. He graduated in 1967 and entered Georgetown University's Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 1971 with a bachelor's degree in international economics and then obtained his law degree from Northwestern University's School of Law in 1980.
The Coalition For Political Honesty
To force passage of tough new ethics laws, Pat Quinn founded the non-partisan, all-volunteer Coalition for Political Honesty in 1975 and launched the biggest petition drive in Illinois history. Quinn and his supporters eventually collected 635,158 signatures on the Political Honesty Initiative and ended a century-old practice that allowed Illinois legislators to collect their entire two years' advance pay on their first day in office.
Quinn took up another fight on behalf of Illinois taxpayers in 1978 when the General Assembly passed a whopping 40% increase in legislators' salaries. Quinn urged outraged taxpayers to invoke the spirit of the Boston Tea Party and send teabags to then Governor James R. Thompson to protest the pay hike. Within days, the Governor's office was overwhelmed with more than 40,000 teabags.
Despite the enormous statewide protest, the legislators underestimated the ire of Illinois taxpayers and refused to rescind the pay raises. In response, Quinn and the Coalition for Political Honesty began a petition drive to reduce the size of the Illinois Legislature, eliminating waste in Springfield by cutting the General Assembly down to size. Quinn coordinated a statewide petition blitz that gathered more than 475,000 signatures in support of the Cutback Amendment. The Amendment was placed on the November 1980 ballot and was solidly approved by voters. As a result, the Illinois House of Representatives was reduced from 177 members to 118.
Reformer And Consumer Advocate
In 1982, Quinn was elected to clean up the scandal-ridden Cook County Board of (Property Tax) Appeals. As Commissioner, he instituted a tough new ethics code, professional auditing standards, and a vigorous taxpayer outreach program. In the words of a Chicago Sun-Times editorial, "he fumigated, reformed and converted a once-corrupt office into a model for taxpayer service, access to records, and openness of process."
Continuing his fight to protect consumers, Pat Quinn launched the 1983 drive to create the Citizens Utility Board (CUB) - a statewide, non-partisan, not-for-profit group to advocate for customers against unfair utility rates. After battling to get the CUB referendum on ballots in 114 Illinois communities, Quinn succeeded in getting the Illinois Legislature to create, and fund, the Citizens Utility Board. Since then, CUB has saved consumers more than $10 billion by blocking rate hikes and winning consumer refunds.
An Innovative State Treasurer
In 1990, Pat Quinn ran a low budget, unconventional campaign for State Treasurer against a well-funded Republican candidate. That November, Quinn delivered a stunning victory with 1.7 million votes - the top total for any state office in that election.
During his term as Illinois State Treasurer, Quinn spearheaded passage of the Illinois Whistleblower Reward and Protection Act, a landmark bill empowering taxpayers to file lawsuits to root out fraud and waste in state government. The Whistleblower Act - which was later expanded to local units of government - has helped the state of Illinois recover millions of dollars in fraudulent payments.
Under Quinn's guidance, the State Treasurer's office used deposits of state funds as a lever to encourage banks to offer loans that would make housing more affordable for Illinois families and give women and minorities access to capital to expand their small businesses. These linked-deposits served to create Illinois jobs and economic opportunity at virtually no cost to taxpayers and brought Treasurer Quinn accolades for his sophistication, aggressiveness and innovation.
In 1993, Treasurer Quinn proposed the Inspector Misconduct Act, to prohibit state employees from demanding campaign contributions from the businesses and individuals they inspect and regulate. As a result of Quinn's efforts, the Inspector Misconduct Act passed and was signed into law in 2002.
Standing Up For Illinois As Lt. Governor
Pat Quinn became Lt. Governor of Illinois in 2003. As Lt. Governor, he fought for significant new programs to protect the environment, expand health care, and provide critical assistance to members of the U.S. Armed Services and their families.
In his role as the state's top elected advocate for Illinois' military men and women and their families, Quinn led the successful effort to enact the Illinois Military Family Relief Act, which provides financial assistance to families of Illinois National Guard members and Reservists called to active duty. He also spearheaded passage of the Let Them Rest in Peace Act, which became a national model in protecting grieving families from disruptive protests at military funerals.
As Lt. Governor, Quinn continued his fight to reform state government, repeatedly defying Illinois' entrenched culture of pay-to-play politics and official corruption. Quinn stood up to criticize an inadequate reform of the scandal-plagued Illinois State Toll Highway Authority in 2004, earning a threat of political "divorce" from the Blagojevich Administration.
Refusing to back down, Quinn continued to demand the clean, accountable government Illinois taxpayers deserve. In 2007, with $25 billion in taxpayer funds at stake in a proposed capital plan, Quinn insisted on passage of legislation to outlaw pay-to-play in Illinois before hefty contracts could be awarded to cronies and campaign funders with deep pockets. He also led opposition to Governor Rod R. Blagojevich's attempts to pass the "grossly unfair" Gross Receipts Tax.
In 2008, Quinn began a petition drive to oppose a 7.5 percent pay raise for Illinois lawmakers. Within 48 hours, Quinn had collected more than 17,000 signatures - enough to pressure the General Assembly into calling a vote and canceling their own raises.
Quinn also led the statewide opposition to the Blagojevich Administration's closing of 23 Illinois state parks and historic sites.
Governor Pat Quinn
Pat Quinn was sworn in as Governor of Illinois on January 29, 2009, after the impeachment and removal from office of Governor Rod R. Blagojevich.
Since taking office, Governor Quinn has devoted himself to balancing the state budget, creating new jobs and new opportunities for Illinois families, bringing fairness to our tax code and leading the fight to reform state government.
In his first act as Governor, Quinn signed an executive order establishing the Illinois Reform Commission. The independent, bipartisan Commission developed a menu of important reforms to bring fairness, honesty, transparency and accountability to Illinois government.
Governor Quinn took swift action to reopen state parks and historic sites that had been closed by the Blagojevich Administration, ensuring access for the 44 million people who visit the state's recreational areas each year - generating an estimated $790 million in overall economic impact in Illinois.
On April 3, Governor Quinn signed into law his $3 billion Jump Start Capital Plan - Illinois' first capital construction program in 10 years. Combined with the federal stimulus funds, the Jump Start Capital Plan will create thousands of jobs in Illinois

Also in Cook County:
Toni Preckwinkle for Cook County Board President
Again, from Democracy for America:
Chicago is a machine town, but one candidate for Cook County Board President stands out above the rest as a real reformer: Toni Preckwinkle.
Toni is in this race to restore the basic principles of good government to the Cook County Board -- Provide the best services possible and do so effectively. These are principles in government all but forgotten by corrupt incumbent Todd Stroger.
As president, Toni will not only restore these principles, but get to work on solving some of Cook County's biggest problems -- a regressive tax system and broken justice system.
Here is Toni Preckinkle's statement to DFA:
After graduating from the University of Chicago over 40 years ago, I made a lifelong commitment to public service. I taught history at local high schools for a decade, ran a non-profit aimed at neighborhood improvement, and took on the political machine which represented the status quo. My first attempts to beat machine-backed politicians failed, but I persevered against the odds until I won the 4th Ward Aldermanic seat 18 years ago.
As the Committeeman and Alderman representing the 4th Ward, I've prided myself on independence, transparency and accountability - while always striving to improve the quality of life for my constituents. I've rejected the old patronage model of political organization, wherein precinct captains double as city and county employees until and unless they fail to deliver votes for the Machine. As Cook County Board President I will lead by example, with commitment and perseverance to ignite a critically needed change of culture in County government and politics.
I believe government should uphold two basic principles: provide the best services and do so as effectively as possible. Right now, Cook County government is failing on both accounts. That's why I'm running for Cook County Board President.
I believe the greatest failure of the current administration is not mismanagement, it's not endemic corruption and it's not the hordes of patronage employees - though these are all serious shortcomings. It is, rather, the current administration's cynical disregard of the wishes, concerns, and fears of the citizens. Over the past eleven months, I have traveled throughout the County, from Palatine to Dolton, from Winnetka to Cicero, and throughout Chicago, speaking with many citizens about our priorities, such as repealing the sales tax increase, making permanent the independent Health Board, and addressing reforms for the overcrowding throughout the County criminal justice system. So far, this race has been too consumed with the "politics" - who's in and who's out. What I have offered is a "compact for change". This isn't just a litany of reforms. This is a new compact between the people of Cook County and its government and it rests squarely on the demands of the citizens. We must address the issues facing the County: the need to fully repeal the sales tax increase and stimulate economic development, the responsibility to make our neighborhoods safe and the drive to improve our health care and criminal justice systems. The full Compact for Change can be found at http://www.tonipreckwinkle.org/page/compact-for-change.
Eighteen years of service in the City Council has taught me to work well with others and make compromises when necessary to accomplish goals. I was a founding member and leader of the Progressive Caucus in the City Council - a disparate coalition of reform-minded alderman committed to accountability and fairness in Chicago public policy. My political independence has not blinded me to carefully examining public policy. If the Mayor proposed a good idea, I was willing to work with him and the administration. But I have never been deterred from standing up to the administration when I fundamentally disagreed. I opposed Mayor Daley's plan to privatize parking meters and I stood in a small minority when opposing the tax increases in the FY2008 budget. While I have always been honored to serve in a legislative capacity, I believe it's time to put my ideas, principles and political skills to work as an executive. I can't think of an office that is more desperately in need of new leadership than that of President of the Cook County Board.
Tax Relief
I'm running for Cook County Board President because I believe government should uphold two basic principles: provide the best services and do so as effectively as possible. Right now, Cook County government is failing on both accounts. First, as Cook County Board President, I will move to repeal the Stroger sales tax increase, and work hard to decrease the overall sales tax - while also bringing down expenses by cutting wasteful spending and eliminating inefficient programs. The County provides too many critical services and opportunities for our community to be stalled by the waste, fraud and abuse of the current Cook County government.
Rebuilding the Health Care System
In order to create a solid foundation for a fiscally-sound County health system, I will push for the independent Board of Directors to be made permanent. This is the first step in reducing the political influence that has been detrimental to the efficiency and morale of those health care professionals who work so hard to provide quality care. I will also work to ensure that County health services are as efficient and effective as possible by striving for three basic objectives:
o Correct extensive waste and duplication in order to end the bureaucratic drain on health care services.
o Divert mismanaged resources into high-quality preventive care.
o Pursue cooperative ventures to create a network of specialists.
Another key challenge we face is that each year, residents of surrounding counties use Stroger Hospital free of charge. It is simply not fair that our residents are paying for their services. I will collaborate with other counties to ensure that those counties using our health resources pay their fair share.
Reforming Cook County's Chronically Overcrowded Jail
As Cook County Board President, reforming the criminal justice system must be a priority. Cook County's jail is chronically overcrowded. This reality not only drains our budget, but compromises the safety of Cook County residents, as the Department of Corrections has fewer resources to devote to prosecuting and incarcerating violent criminals. I will expand programs that not only serve as alternatives to incarceration for non-violent offenders, but also provide treatment for addiction, educational classes and life skills training, in order to reduce recidivism and make our county safer. The benefits of this approach are three-fold: 1) easing the overcrowding of our jail; 2) facilitating re-entry and job training; and 3) reducing repeat offenses. Specifically, I will expand the State's Attorney's Drug Abuse Program (SADAP), which provides treatment and drug education to first-time drug offenders. I will also look to expand the State's Attorney's RAP Drug School and Cook County Drug Court, which serve as pre-trial diversions of non-violent drug offenders from jail into drug treatment programs. As current demand for these services exceeds their capacity, their expansion will unclog the County's courts and free up resources that will enable the State's Attorney's office to focus on the prosecution of violent criminals.

The decision maker's guide to contact center quality management
Contact center industry expert Donna Fluss of DMG Consulting reviews 11 vendors in this exclusive report exploring the quality management and liability recording market.
Read part 2 of this article: Vendor reviews
Quality management (QM) and liability recording suites have improved dramatically during the last two years, with more innovation expected during the next 12 months. QM and recording suites now include quality assurance, recording (random and 100%), speech analytics, surveying, performance management, coaching and e-learning. Currently, two of these suites also include workforce management. Increasingly, these suites are being designed to incorporate an enterprise portal framework with advanced reporting. They are also set up to work well in multi-site contact center environments. Software-based Voice over Internet Protocol recording is now a high-value reality, and it is easier than ever for end users to implement.
Product innovation drive ROI
Product innovation is driving end-user demand for quality management suites. The core platforms (QM and recording) yield a rapid return on investment. The expected payback period is six to 12 months from the time the system is fully implemented. Newer applications, such as speech analytics, can speed up the financial return.
The QM/liability recording market continues to be in a state of transition. Vendors are realizing revenue from newly released modules, even though recording (also known as logging) has become a commodity, significantly reducing the price for this functionality. Most recording products are migrating from hardware-based offerings to software. The market also continues to consolidate. In 2005, Witness Systems closed its acquisition of Blue Pumpkin Software (workforce management), Nice Systems acquired Dictaphone's Communications Recording Systems division and U.K.-based Autonomy Corp. acquired Etalk. All these moves are expected to strengthen QM/recording products and the market. New entrants, like CallCopy and Telrex, have also energized the market in the last couple of years.
Market leadership
It's challenging to select a new QM and recording vendor because there are so many good options. Most vendors have enhanced their offerings to include value-added functionality and services to meet the needs of this growing and increasingly demanding market. (See Figure 1 for a market assessment.) This chart addresses each vendor's ability to sell, build products, innovate, implement, deliver service, and support and satisfy its customers.
Figure 1: QM/recording contact center market product/execution positioning reflects the market leadership as of August 2005.
Market share
According to DMG Consulting LLC, as of the end of 2004, the four largest vendors, Nice Systems, Witness Systems, Verint Systems and Etalk, owned 90% of the $463 million contact center recording/QM market. (See Figure 2.) The entire recording market, including contact center, public safety, financial trading and air traffic control, was $814 million as of the end of 2004. DMG Consulting expects the overall recording market to grow by 12.5% to $916 million and the contact center component to increase by 14% to $528 million by the end of 2005.

text: Allergies Drug & Latex Allergies Print Novocaine Allergy Symptoms and Reactions By Daniel More, MD Updated October 31, 2019 Medically reviewed by a board-certified physician Hero Images/Getty Images More in Allergies Drug & Latex Allergies Nose & Eye Allergies Contact Dermatitis Food Allergies Skin Allergies Animal & Insect Allergies Urticaria & Angioedema Common Treatments Local anesthetics, first developed in 1904, are commonly used to prevent pain in dental and surgical procedures. They are also used in injection form to treat and prevent irregular heartbeats, in topical form to numb the skin (such as various anti-itch creams, like Lanacane) and mouth (such as Orajel), and in eye drops for surgical eye procedures. Examples of local anesthetics include procaine (Novocaine), lidocaine (Xylocaine), benzocaine, and mepivacaine (Carbocaine). Symptoms Many symptoms, due to allergic and non-allergic causes, can occur as a result of local anesthetic use. These symptoms may include: AnxietyFlushingHyperventilationFast heart rate or palpitationsSwelling, itching, or hives, both at the site of injection and elsewhere on the bodySigns of anaphylaxisContact dermatitis at the site of injection or application Causes of Reactions to Local Anesthetics Reactions to local anesthetics are relatively common, although they are only rarely due to an allergic cause. Symptoms occurring after the use of local anesthetics may be due to a variety of causes, including anxiety, hyperventilation, toxic effects of the drug itself, vaso-vagal reactions, as well as reactions to epinephrine, which is frequently added to local anesthetics to make the numbing effect last longer. It is also possible for a person to experience an allergic reaction to preservatives added to local anesthetics. Methylparabens are the most common preservatives added to multi-use vials of local anesthetics. Allergy to methylparaben, while still uncommon, is far more common than true allergy to local anesthetics themselves. While true allergies to local anesthetics can occur, they are extremely rare despite numerous large studies of people who experienced adverse reactions after using these medications. Skin testing revealed that nearly all of these people showed no evidence of allergy to local anesthetics and were able to tolerate injections with these medications. The possibility of latex allergy should always be considered when a person has a reaction to local anesthetics, given the common use of latex gloves in the medical and dental industries. Some medications used in spinal anesthesia contain sulfites, another preservative that can cause allergic reactions. Lastly, it is possible to experience contact dermatitis to local anesthetics. An itchy, blistering rash may occur at the site of injection or application of the local anesthetic. How an Allergy to Local Anesthetics Is Diagnosed Skin testing can be helpful in the evaluation of an adverse reaction to these medications. Allergists have different ways of approaching a person with a history of an adverse reaction to local anesthetics. Most will, however, perform skin testing with the ultimate goal of giving a person at least one local anesthetic that can be used in the future. Most allergists skin test with preservative-free (methylparaben-free), epinephrine-free local anesthetics. If skin testing is negative, then subcutaneous (under the skin) injections will be performed by the allergist using that specific local anesthetic. This is termed a "challenge", which is essentially giving a person a typical amount of the drug that they might encounter at the dentist or when getting minor surgery. If a person tolerates a medically-supervised challenge using a particular local anesthetic, it is assumed that the person can use this particular drug in the future. Other allergists will skin test using the most common local anesthetic available—lidocaine with methylparaben. The majority of people will tolerate a challenge using this form of local anesthetic, and therefore is the easiest way for a person to overcome the label of being "allergic to local anesthetics." In the unusual circumstance that a skin test is positive for a local anesthetic, a repeat skin test using a methylparaben-free formulation or another local anesthetic can be performed. Common alternative local anesthetics for lidocaine include bupivacaine (marcaine), mepivacaine, prilocaine, and etidocaine. It is very important to always use local anesthetics that do not contain epinephrine for skin testing since the presence of epinephrine could lead to a false negative skin test result. Some people will notice a reaction at the site of injection hours to days after testing or challenge with a local anesthetic. This may signal the presence of contact dermatitis to local anesthetics, which is best diagnosed with the use of patch testing. Generally, people with contact dermatitis to one local anesthetic will tolerate another local anesthetic. How an Allergy to a Local Anesthetics Is Treated The treatment of an acute reaction to a local anesthetic is similar to that of a reaction from any other cause. If anaphylaxis occurs, treatment may include injectable epinephrine and antihistamines, as well as the use of intravenous fluids for low blood pressure and shock. The prevention of future reactions is another important aspect of treatment. Skin testing for local anesthetics should be under the direction of an allergist. Once a reasonable alternative local anesthetic has been found to be tolerated by the person, only this specific local anesthetic should be used in the future. It is still possible that the person could experience a reaction to a different local anesthetic. Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback!

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
Judge Richard Matsch (see December 1, 1995), citing the defendants' right to an impartial jury in the Oklahoma City bombing trial (see 8:35 a.m. - 9:02 a.m. April 19, 1995, August 10, 1995, and November 21, 1995), moves the trial from Oklahoma City to Denver, Colorado. Matsch is the Chief Judge of the Federal District Court in Colorado, and is essentially moving the case to his "home" courtroom. Matsch rules that because of intensive negative media coverage of the bombing, neither Timothy McVeigh nor Terry Nichols can receive fair trials in Oklahoma City. "This court… concludes that there is so great a prejudice against these two defendants in the State of Oklahoma that they cannot obtain a fair and impartial trial at any place… in that state," Matsch writes. McVeigh and Nichols have been "demonized" in the press, he continues. "The intensity of the humanization of the victims in the public mind is in sharp contrast with the prevalent portrayals of the defendants.… [T]he interests of the victims in being able to attend this trial in Oklahoma are outweighed by the court's obligation to assure that the trial be conducted with fundamental fairness and with due regard for all constitutional requirements." McVeigh's attorney, Stephen Jones, says, "The judge examined all the evidence and saw that Oklahoma sees itself as the victims and that makes it difficult to get a fair trial here." Prosecutors agreed that Oklahoma City was not the proper venue for the trial, but had asked that the trial be moved to Tulsa, only two hours from Oklahoma City; US Attorney Patrick Ryan, newly appointed by President Clinton to represent the Oklahoma City district, argued that moving the trial would present an undue hardship on the families of the victims who want to observe the trial. Attorney General Janet Reno says the government "does not have the right" to appeal Matsch's decision and therefore is ready to move to trial "expeditiously." Reno says the Justice Department would "pursue every means available to provide survivors and loved ones with an opportunity to observe and follow events in the courtroom." Kathleen Treanor, who lost her daughter and her in-laws in the bombing, is angry with the decision, saying she had intended to go to the trials: "It stinks. Judge Matsch will not have to give up his bed or leave his home. He is inconvenienced in no way. I lost my only daughter and I won't be able to afford to go." But Toby Thompson, who lost his brother in the bombing, says: "It is very important that the trial be squeaky clean. If moving it to Nova Scotia would ensure that I wouldn't have to go through it twice, that would be fine with me." Legal experts say Matsch made the decision in order to obviate any possibility that the defense would use the venue of the trial as the basis for a possible appeal. Governor Frank Keating (R-OK) criticizes the decision, saying Matsch moved the trial to Denver "for his personal comfort.… It is easier for him to go home and sleep in his own bed. That's what his decision says to the hundreds and thousands of people impacted in this bombing. Its wrong on the facts and it's wrong on the law." Keating says he will coordinate with Governor Roy Romer (D-CO) and Denver Mayor Wellington Webb, as well as the federal government, to fund transport and housing for relatives and friends of the victims who wish to attend the trials.

Linder, 2001] Chicago jury consultant Joe Guaftaferro says of the venue change: "Colorado, from a jury perspective, could be risky. There's a lot of white supremacists in those hills." Public affairs law professor Rita Simon, an expert on the effects of publicity on a jury, says she agrees with Matsch's decision, and adds, "With proper instruction, jurors could put aside any pretrial prejudice they may have picked up as a result of publicity about the case."

A buddy just sent us a link to this cool little story in the New York Times.
Seems that a factory worker from Long Island named Saul Linares recently penned a little corrido -- those wonderful Latino folk ditties about love, murder, and about everything between.
The subject? Maricopa Country's duly elected sheriff.
Linares is originally from El Salvador, but word of Arpaio's infamous modus operandi has spread far and wide.
The song is just a few lines long, but it makes its point. One of the stanzas goes like this:
"Arpaio puts the immigrants in jail/Because he says that they are crooks

"But they are only looking for a decent job/And without any apparent sense or reason/
He paraded them in chains down the street."
The Times reporter, Lawrence Downes, himself referred to Joe as "infamous for abusing prisoners, strutting on TV, and arresting Latinos on flimsy pretexts....He is prime corrido material."
Welcome to Maricopa County, USA.

Six Ways To Keep Your Computer Virus-Free
The more often you use your laptop, the more likely you are to leave behind scraps of private information and bits of your identity in the applications you use and the Web sites you visit. Thus, you need to protect your laptop as a valuable piece of property, as a repository of digital information, and as a portal to your online finances.
- Your operating system most likely includes a software firewall, so make sure it's turned on whenever you go online.
- Keeping on top of updates and fixes for your system is also a vital necessity. Make sure Windows updates are being installed automatically.
- It's also important to regularly check for and install updates to third-party software such as Java, Adobe Flash Player, and your component drivers.
- Enable password protection on your user account with strong password.
- Enable encryption whenever possible. Some versions of Windows 7 and Windows 8 include BitLocker Drive Encryption, which makes sure your data is safe even if your laptop goes missing.
- While on the road, you need to resist the urge to connect to open Wi-Fi networks whenever possible. Data thieves can set up open Wi-Fi networks themselves or log onto open networks to sniff and snoop the private data of others logged onto the unprotected network.
When you see a "scareware" pop-up, it's important that you don't click anywhere within the pop-up, because any area that you select may have been manipulated by the cybercriminal to let it start installing viruses onto your PC. Simultaneously press CTRL+W on your keyboard, which should close the popup. If that doesn't work, press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, select Start Task Manager, and click Applications. Then, right-click the task for your Web browser and select End Task. This will kill all the Web browser tabs you had open, including any that had been taken over by the scareware pop-up.
For staying protected, consumers need to:
– Be suspicious when someone calls you and tells you that you have a computer problems.
– Be careful with any download, web-link or attachment, which may've viruses, although look to be lawful.
– Make sure you've an updated anti-virus on your PCs.
– Not let callers gain admission into a PC, while based at any remote location. Such admission can allow the persons to install malware and/or access data of the PC.
– Not have auto-storage of usernames and passwords on one's PC.
– Make password resets frequently with the new passwords having numbers and characters not clearly related to one's identity, like phone numbers, pet/family names alternatively birth dates.

Judging the Royals
Why Ned Yost stuck with Jeremy Guthrie
Even though some fans might like to think ballplayers should go 100 percent all the time or managers should treat every game like it's game seven of the World Series, that's not realistic. Play like that and you'd be burned out not long after the All-Star Game. Professional athletes and teams have to pace themselves and, at times, managers have to admit the odds of winning a game aren't good — and that was the case Wednesday afternoon.
Unless it's a must-win game, a manager cannot pull his starting pitcher at the first sign of trouble; do that and you burn up your bullpen. Burn up your bullpen and one loss can turn into two or three.
Those hit-by-pitches were a warning sign
Jeremy Guthrie had given up two runs in five innings — not bad — but there were warning signs that things might soon get worse. It took him 31 pitches to get through the first inning and he hit Yan Gomes with an 0-2 pitch; both were indications that Guthrie was not sharp.
In the second inning Guthrie gave up his second run and hit another batter; this time it was Jason Kipnis.
Over the next three innings Guthrie avoided trouble and the Indians didn't score, but he hit another batter — his third of the game — with an 0-1 pitch and Michael Brantley was the victim.
Hitting three batters when you don't mean to, indicates a pretty serious lack of command.
So why not pull Guthrie after five innings?
So the Royals are down 2-0 going into the sixth inning; why not pull Guthrie after five? I didn't get to ask Ned Yost that question, but a logical answer might include the name "Corey Kluber."
The Indians starting pitcher was throwing lights out and the Royals had no runs and only one hit after five innings. When an ace is dealing, two runs might be a bigger mountain than you can climb — and that was the case Wednesday.
If you think Kluber is throwing so well he's going to make those two runs stand up, you don't waste any more pitching than you have to on a game that might already be lost.
The Royals bullpen; who pitches when
At this point the Royals bullpen consists seven pitchers; eight once the team decides which starter isn't a starter any more.
Ned Yost has four guys he tends to use when he's ahead in the game, but the game is still close: Ryan Madson, Kelvin Herrera, Wade Davis and Greg Holland.
Ned's got a couple guys he can use situationally or when he's behind: Franklin Morales and Luke Hochevar.
And every bullpen has a long reliever; the guy who pitches multiple innings when his team is way behind or way ahead. Right now that guy seems to be Kris Medlen.
So after five innings, behind two runs to last year's Cy Young winner, you don't want to use any of those first four relievers. If the game is already lost because Kluber is pitching so well, you might as well send Guthrie back out at 74 pitches and ask him to grind through another inning or two; that way you don't use up any more relievers than you have to.
And if your offense suddenly figures Kluber out, then you can go to your best relievers — but it didn't happen that way.
The sixth inning
Guthrie got the first batter he faced, but then gave up a home run and the score was 3-0. Because Kluber was pitching so well, falling further behind on the scoreboard is a reason not to pull Guthrie; it probably won't change the final outcome and it will just burn up relief innings. Better to let Guthrie stay out there and save the pen for the next day's game.
But after Guthrie got hammered for five more hits in a row — two of them homers — he was at 101 pitches and had thrown 27 of them in the sixth inning. Let a pitcher stay out there and pitch under duress for too long and it's a good way to hurt him; either physically or mentally. Ned Yost let Guthrie throw as long as possible in order to rest his bullpen for the next series in Toronto.
Sometimes you have to lose one game to win two down the road, and Wednesday the Royals took care of the losing part of that formula; Cleveland 12, Kansas City 1.
Get used to players resting
Neither Lorenzo Cain nor Salvador Perez were in the lineup Wednesday and it sounds like the Royals have more plans to rest players. This is what smart teams with a big division lead do: they prepare for the playoffs.
The Royals are not fighting down to the wire right now, so they can afford to let some players sit. The hard part is calculating just how much rest is enough and how much is counter-productive; you don't want a team to get used to losing and letting up on the gas too soon.
If the Royals are pacing themselves and another team makes a run at them, they might regret resting some guys in games they might have won otherwise — but Wednesday's game is not on that list. When you get beat 12-1, there's not a whole lot you can do about it except forget it and move on.
Jarrod Dyson and the protective cup
If my eyes didn't deceive me, Jarrod Dyson got hit in the crotch twice during the Cleveland series. Once when a groundball came up on him, the second time when a foul ball bounced straight back up.
A coworker asked why any ballplayer would go on a field without a protective cup. I said it's because they're uncomfortable as hell and if you can sneak by without wearing one, you might try. Then the coworker said you must get used to them after a while.
Spoken like a guy who has never spent 162 days wearing one.
That's like saying having someone use sandpaper to rub the tip of your nose is something you'd get used to: it doesn't work that way. Protective cups get more uncomfortable as time goes by, not less.
Even so, Jarrod might want to think about wearing one for a while — just to give certain tender body parts a rest.

Yet Johnny has continually returned to the blues roots from which his music sprang. Between 1968 and 1980, he cut fifteen albums that define the blues-rock form, ranging from the raw power of Rock and Roll Hoochie Coo to the subtlety of acoustic Delta blues. In 1984 Johnny signed with Alligator Records, where his guitar, vocal and interpretive abilities were given a thriving environment. His three critically acclaimed Alligator releases, two of which received Grammy nominations, solidified Johnny's presence as one of the top blues artists in the world. Joining Johnny to jam with the campers that week are the incredible Yngwie Malmsteen, Leslie West, Peter Criss, Robben Ford and so MANY more!

"I would definitely recommend Dr. Judy Hinojosa to others.
I have been Dr. Judy's patient for two years now and I have never encountered a doctor who takes such a personal and caring approach to treating her patients… Dr. Judy took the time to find out what was wrong and used natural medications in order to treat my condition… Dr. Judy truly cares about her patients and does not treat you like another number."
She asked me all the right questions—things I wouldn't have even thought of. She instantly put me at ease and she was non-judgmental. She has completely changed my life and she still continues to help me on the journey to better health."
I could not ask for a more caring and compassionate doctor for my two boys and myself…
[My boys] love going to the doctor! They get a lot of hugs and they know they are sincerely cared about. I am watching my older son travel down a road of wonderful health…To me, Dr. Hinojosa is a health coach, a teacher, and a truly amazing doctor. I have a great amount of respect for her knowledge, her concern for the patient as a whole."
"In the three months I have been seeing Dr. Judy, I am virtually pain free from joint pain.
I feel very strong and balanced. I am eating to feel great, and I have lost 32 pounds. I have gained a wellspring of energy and my friends say I am "glowing." Dr. Judy is amazing and her staff are friendly and caring. I highly recommend Vitality Natural Health Care to all."
My experience working with her has been absolutely awesome. Her very thorough testing led us to find things traditional doctors had previously missed…
Dr. Hinojosa genuinely cares about the whole health of a person and my experience with her has been nothing but wonderful."
Finally, I felt I found a doctor who cared about me, not the time or the next appointment…
It was great to get such specific instructions…and to have a doctor who cared and listened to my questions and concerns…I would recommend Dr. Judy HInojosa to everyone who is looking to lose weight and keep it off, while having amazing care from a doctor who truly cares about you."
For the first time in a long time, I am enjoying great physical health and feeling happy and alive again.
It has been so long since I have felt well and now I feel like I have my life back. People that have not seen me in a long time continue to ask me what I am doing to look and feel this great. I can't stop talking about her to all my friends. She is a miracle worker!"
She is very intuitive, and not only listens to my words, but digs deeper below the surface to figure out the problem…
Dr. Judy was even sensitive to my financial situation, and worked it out so that my needs are met without sacrificing the quality of care and remedies I receive."
Dr. Judy has great staff and you will really notice a difference over other physician offices in how you are treated and cared for."
With the help of Dr. Hinojosa, I am now healthier than I have ever been, and most exciting of all, my husband and I are due to deliver our precious little miracle this September."

A Canadian woman who was injured in a skydiving accident in the U.S. is being flown home, but she owes $500,000 for her American medical care.
Kenzie Markey was skydiving in Arizona on April 6 when wind turbulence collapsed her parachute, Global News reports.
She suffered a collapsed lung, plus a fractured femur, toe, pelvis, skull, eye socket, nose, and elbow, according to a fundraising page set up to help Markey and her family pay for the expenses. More than $16,000 has been raised so far.
Markey, 32, is from Nova Scotia but currently lives in Pemberton, B.C. She's described as an adrenaline junkie, reports The Province. Markey's insurance was declared invalid because her injuries were caused by an extreme sport, according to the newspaper.
"She's strong," Markey's mother, Sherry MacKenzie-Jennison, told CTV News. "She's strong willed, so that's going to help her get through it."
Markey is being flown back to Vancouver on Tuesday and will be taken straight to Lions Gate Hospital, according to Global News. The trip alone could cost up to $45,000.

Maybe I have too many iDevices in my family (not possible), but I've run into this issue several times. It happened when I got my new iPhone 5 last year. I pull it out of the box and start talking to my shiny new phone via Siri and Siri calls me "Erin." So I politely tell Siri that I am not Erin. So what does Siri do? She says, "Ok, I'll call you 'not Erin' from now on is that ok?" No Siri, that's not ok! Then just a few days ago my wife finally catches up to the future of telephony and got the iPhone 5. She opens it up and Siri is calling her "Clark"...my name. So now her new phone thinks its mine and my iPhone and iPad have taken on my wife's identity. Since I've had so much fun doing this lately I thought I would share with everyone how to quickly and easily solve the identity crisis that can occur when swapping or upgrading iDevices.
Siri, just don't call me Shirley
What you want Siri to call you is between you and Siri. But remember, that just asking Siri via voice command to call you a name doesn't properly identify YOU as the owner of the phone. In our case Siri was telling my wife that she was "Clark", but because her and Siri "were friends" Siri could call her "Erin." What that means is that Siri has assigned YOU a nickname field in the contact card that is assigned as the iPhone's owner. So how do you make sure that your contact card in Contacts is what your iPhone is using as the iPhone owner's card? There are two things to check here:
1.) If you have a device with Siri you need to go to Settings > General > Siri > My Info
From there you will be able to select the card in your Contacts that you want associated with Siri so Siri knows who the owner of the iPhone is.
2.) Whether your device has Siri or not you will also want to check that Mail, Contacts, Calendars is also identifying you as YOU. Go to Mail, Contact, Calendars > My Info
From there you will be able to select the card in your Contacts that you want identified to identify as YOU when you are using things like Mail, Messages and Calendar.
IMessage and FaceTime Contact Methods
Another thing that can easily be confusing when dealing with multiple devices across a family and multiple email and phone numbers is how to assign phone numbers and email addresses to individual devices so that each individual person can be contacted differently for FaceTime and iMessages. The best way to ensure that your device is setup the way you want it is to go to Settings and under Messages > Send & Receive you should see 3 things:
- The Apple ID associated with iMessages at the very top
- A list of phone numbers and email addresses that can be reached by iMessage
- A list of phone numbers and email addresses that can be used to start a new iMessage (this one is important because if you want to be able to receive an iMessage with your personal email but you don't want people who don't already have your personal email address to have it... you want to make sure your personal email address is NOT listed here.
There is a similar setup for FaceTime in Settings under FaceTime >
There you will find a switch to turn on and off FaceTime (in case you don't ever want to be contacted via FaceTime, a specification of the Apple ID associated with FaceTime and a list of additional email addresses that you can be reached at on this device via FaceTime.
Rather than go into great detail about the setup I will point to an excellent article by iLounge here. But I do want to explain two very important points. You can use the same Apple ID email address on multiple devices for both iMessages and FaceTime, but the way you distinguish between devices is by adding additional email addresses and phone numbers to each device. That way if you want to iMessage or FaceTime between 2 different devices that are using the same Apple ID there is a way to tell the two devices apart. Another really important thing to understand is that you CAN NOT associate the same non-Apple ID email address with more than one device. For example, I was wanting to associate my gmail address with both my iPhone and iPad so that I could get a FaceTime call on both devices at the same time and decide which one I wanted to use (in case I only had one device on me at the time). But this is not possible. Only the main Apple ID associated with iMessages and FaceTime will ring or message all devices at the same time.

Legislation Enforcement Programs
Residents of Temecula fall under the jurisdiction of a number of different legislation enforcement agencies. When the nation has a federal structure an entire of nation LEA is known as a federal regulation enforcement agency. Regulation enforcement agencies produce other exemptions from legal guidelines to permit them to function in a practical method. Mao Zedong , perceiving that the public security cadres had been protecting exactly the celebration leaders he wished to purge, directed youthful Purple Guards to crush the police, courts, and procuratorates as properly.
Palantir Legislation Enforcement offers seamlessly built-in case administration capabilities. Typically federal LEAs have comparatively slim police duties, the person divisions throughout the federation normally set up their own police businesses to enforce laws throughout the division.
The PLA and the militia continued to share responsibility for internal security and public order beneath the 1954 state structure. ^ Kären M. Hess, Christine Hess Orthmann, Introduction to Law Enforcement and Prison Justice (2008), p. 1. Communist control, nevertheless, exceeded that of bao jia or any other traditional system and prolonged into nearly each family.
A police officer and a police automobile are traditional identifiers of a locally based regulation enforcement company. The thought of policing requires a holistic method to community service, considering the issues that plague a group and working with the folks within that group to unravel them.
Public Security Incident Maps can be used by regulation enforcement businesses to create a series of incident layers from computer aided dispatch or information management information. In addition to mediation committees, different officials, police officers, get together members, and work supervisors had been expected to function mediators.

Rockies Recap: Angels 18, Rockies 11 final
Angels 18, Rockies 11
At Tempe Diablo Stadium
At the plate:Jeff Baker showed simultaneously why teams want him, namely the Astros and Pirates, and why the Rockies want fair value to move him. Starting his first game at third base, Baker homered twice and singled. Baker has said he doesn't concern himself with trade rumors or injuries. "I used to worry about stuff that I couldn't control, and it doesn't do any good,'' said Baker, who also committed a throwing error. Baker's is out of options and facing a roster crunch. Catcher Yorvit Torrealba, another player the Rockies would consider trading, continued his strong spring with a home run to left field. Torrealba finished 2-for-4 with three RBIs, raising his average to .306. Dexter Fowler, bucking for a roster spot, turned a bloop single into a double with alarming speed.
On the mound:It would be difficult to imagine a worse day pitching – think of the July 4 game against the Marlins at Coors Field and you're getting close.
In recording only 13 outs, Jason Marquis was bombed for 12 runs and 10 hits. He had no command of his sinker as his ERA inflated to 14.14 ERA. At this point in the recap, the pitcher usually explains his outing. Marquis, however, left the ballpark without running, so that discussion will have to take place tomorrow morning. Reliever Juan Morillo also failed to escape the sixth, allowing a 400-foot-plus home run to Sean Rodriguez. Matt Belisle was the shining headlight in this car wreck, dropping the gate on the Angels' deluge. In other words, he didn't allow a run in his four outs of work, cause for celebration on this day. Belisle is making a push to secure the final relief spot. He's competing with Josh Fogg, who pitches Friday in Tucson. The Angels have scored 56 runs with 15 home runs over their last four games.
In the field: Baker's flyball struck Torii Hunter on the nose as he collided into the wall, leading to a hospital visit.
Up next: Rockies host Dodgers. Jorge De La Rosa, Huston Street, Ryan Speier, Josh Fogg and Morillo are scheduled to pitch.

In Hawaiian mythology, Kamapuaʻa ("hog child")[1] is a hog-man fertility superhuman associated with Lono, the god of agriculture. The son of Hina and Kahikiula, the chief of Oahu, Kamapuaʻa was particularly connected with the island of Maui.[2]
A kupua (trickster), Kamapuaʻa is best known for his romantic pursuit of the fire goddess Pele, with whom he shared a turbulent relationship. Despite Pele's power, Kamapuaʻa's persistence allows him to turn her lava rock into fertile soil.
He is linked with the humuhumunukunukuapuaa, also known as the reef triggerfish and presently the state fish of Hawaiʻi.[3]
Professor Lilikalā K Kame'eleihiwa describes him as "defiant of all authority, bold and untamed, he recalls the pig nature that is dormant in most people….Treacherous and tender, he thirsts after the good things in life--adventure, love, and sensual pleasure…."[4]
Early life
Kamapua'a was born to human parents, Kahikiula and Hina, on Oahu. He is recorded as having one brother, Kahikihonuakele.[5] There are also many stories involving his grandmother, whom he seems to be very close to. There is not a lot of information on his childhood.
Adult life
He is said to be very attractive as an adult and had many romantic exploits. He also is recorded as having many run ins with other chiefs and other influential people, so was often at odds with and engaged in warfare with them. The most known battles are with Olopana and Pele, the volcano goddess.
In Maui the kukui is a symbol of enlightenment, protection and peace. It was said that Kamapua'a could transform into a kukui tree.[6] One of the legends told of Kamapua'a: one day, a man beat his wife to death and buried her beneath Kamapua'a while he was in tree form. Because he saw that the woman had been a good person, he raised her to new life, but damned her husband to death. One well known myth involves Olopana and some birds. Being the Trickster that he was, Kamapua'a one-day stole some birds from Olopana, who was enraged at the theft. Olopana sent his warriors after Kamapua'a, who, along with his own followers, fought back, until it became clear they could not win. Kamapua'a took his followers and fled until they came up against a waterfall where they were seemingly cornered. It was at this point that Kamapua'a shifted into a hog which his followers used to climb to the next level of the falls and to freedom.
Kamapua'a and Pele
There are contradictory stories depicting the relationship between Kamapua'a and Pele. In some versions they are described as enemies (Hawaiian Romance), in others they are depicted as lovers or husband and wife (Hawaiian folk tales). Yet another version says that Kamapua'a tried to woo Pele unsuccessfully and when she rejected him with insults, a battle resulted in which Kamapua'a poured water over the volcano and Pele drove Kamapua'a into the ocean to escape her fire.[7]

Africa's Christians Under Attack/
Ayanna Nahmias, Editor-in-ChiefLast Modified: 22:05 PM EDT, 30 April 2012
NAIROBI, Kenya - In recent months, across Africa, Christian sects have been under attack from extremist. On Sunday, 29 April 2012, a church in Ngara was bombed leaving one person confirmed dead and 16 others seriously injured.
Although the US embassy warned of an imminent threat of terrorist attacks in the country, specific targets were not identified. The lone attacker is said to have entered God's House of Miracles International Church with other worshipers, at which point he hurled a grenade toward the front pews before hastily retreating toward the exit.
Police immediately launched an investigation while many of the victims were taken to be treated at the Guru Nanak and Kenyatta National hospitals. Unlike the conflict between radical Islamists and Christians in northern Nigeria, the terrorist's attacks in Kenya are primarily a reaction to Kenya's incursion into Somalia in October 2011 when troops were dispatched to fight al-Shabab fighter.
Terrorist attacks like the Sunday church bombings in Kenya and Nigeria seem to be the favored method of expressing dissatisfaction with the government. Prior to the Ngara bombing, there was a grenade attack on a church service in Mtwapa, Mombasa that left one person dead and ten others seriously injured.
From East Africa to West Africa, the incidence of sectarian violence is escalating. Previously, we reported on the rising conflict between Christians and extremist Islamic factions in northern Nigeria's Kano State. The radical Islamic sect known as Boko Haram has in recent months unleashed bloody attacks on Christians and other non-Islamic sects as they seek to impose Sharia law in Nigeria.
Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, is widely believed to be Boko Haram's base of operations and has the highest number of incidents of violence against Christians, police, and the military. Thus, the Monday 30 April 2012, Kano church attack by Boko Haram, a day after the Nairobi bombing was surprising.
The Nigerian attack was carried out by gunmen on motorcycles who hurled small homemade bombs into a university lecture hall where church services were being conducted. A total of 19 people were injured or killed in Boko Haram attacks on Christians in Maiduguri and Kano on both Sunday and Monday.
According to an official presidential statement, Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan condemned the murderous terrorist attack on the Bayero University Campus in Kano yesterday and the "brutal killing of innocent worshipers by vicious assailants." However, many Nigerians believe that Goodluck has not been forceful enough in his efforts to eradicate Boko Haram and restore peace in the North.
The Vatican has also condemned the incidents. "The new terrorist attacks in Kenya and Nigeria at Christian celebrations are horrible and despicable acts," Vatican spokesman Federico Lombardi said.
"We must be close to victims and communities that suffer just as they are peacefully celebrating a faith that wants love and peace for all," he said. "We must encourage the whole population.... not to give in to the temptation to fall into the vicious circle of homicidal hatred," he added. (Source: Independent Catholic News)

Operation Payback Shuts Down IFPI Site
"Vivendi Universal, EMI, Warner Music and Sony Music's main IFPI (International Federation of Phonographic Industry) website is down. Not coincidentally, there's an Operation Payback post addressing the Pirate Bay crew's lost sentencing appeal: 'Dear IFPI, MAFIAA and other parasites, The recent verdict in the Swedish Appeal Court (ThePirateBay spectrial) provoked this statement from Operation: Payback. We emphasize our statement with a Distributed Denial-of-Service attack aimed at the IFPI's website.'"
This probably isnt going to amount to anything but I think its a nice gesture to show the "MAFIAA" and the like the collective annoyance towards them.
Piratebay founders lose appeal
"Three of the four founders of The Pirate Bay have lost an appeal against their conviction last year of helping to share copyrighted material. It wasn't a total waste of time, however. The three have had their one-year jail sentences cut to between four and ten months. (The fourth founder was too ill to appear in court, and will appeal separately.) The foursome also had their fine bumped from 32 million kronor ($4.5 million) to 46 million kronor ($6.5 million)."
I call this bullshit but i guess thats what you get for going up against the deep-pocketed copyright holders
Sued for helping others?
The US Copyright Group has sued Graham Syfert, an attorney that created a packet of self-representation paperwork for individuals sued for P2P sharing of certain movies and moved to have sanctions placed against the defense attorney. Syfert sells these packets for $20, and the USCG claims the 19 individuals that have used it have cost them over $5000.
So you can get sued for helping people win court battles? I wonder when the copyright holding leeches are going to do some actual work and stop clinging to their outdated Business-model.
Devin Townsend: Deconstrupdate 1
Devin "I can't seem to post shit online fast enough" Townsend has now posted the first video documenting the recording process of the third album in his planned "Devin Townsend Project" 4-album series, titled "Deconstruction". Here it is:
Very entertaining watch as usual, and it should come as no surprise since for the past year or so, Mr. Townsend has honed his internet media skills by posting anything and everything that crosses his mind on twitter, Facebook, youtube and maybe even MySpace.
Seriously, I can't think of a single day when I don't get a fresh new update from The Dev regarding his meals, movie watching experiences or spiritual enlightenment. Maybe he should cut that back a little and try to focus on the actual music, because honestly, its been kinda whack as of late.
Ever since he started releasing these preview videos containing actual song bits or demos, the music in them sounds pretty cool. Then the album comes out and you realize all the cool parts were in that preview. Not cool. And now this new video comes out with the same song bits and stuff, but without the cool. There isn't a single riff/melody/sound on this video that I could qualify as "good". Not even "interesting". Is this a sign of worse things to come? Because I was promised the heaviest metal album of all time, not some rehashed "Addicted" album with a different drummer and a faster tempo.
Let's hope I'm wrong, but as of right now, I'm officially not excited for "Deconstruction" anymore. Maybe "Ghost" will be good? I don't know. In the meantime, I'll go check my twitter, which is more than likely overtaken with what I like to call "Devin Townsend's Mind Farts".
