The final Fillmore East show has been called the Last Dance, but it was more dramatic than that; it was a bitter pill to swallow for rock fans everywhere. Pre-dating the Fillmore West's closing by a week, the finale capped a month-long series of outstanding performances by old friends and relative newcomers, many of whom had careers launched from the Fillmore's stage. At the very end, Bill Graham and his staff gathered onstage for final farewells. It was dawn and it was over.
Purchase museum-quality fine art prints of rock, blues, jazz, and country music stars by the best photographers in the world.
About Joe Sia
Joe Sia was a shooting star, a genuine, hands-down, everyone-agrees-on-this star at shooting [photographs], and his departure from this planet in 2003 at the tender age of 57 was too soon for a man of his talent. Born in the Bronx and a committed Yankees man, Joe loved music and gravitated around the Fillmore East and the flower-power youth-culture rock scene from whence he set out to capture some of the most incredible sounds of the last half-century. How could Joe capture sounds on camera film? He did it by focusing on the faces of the performers and the woozing-oozing crowd and by giving the background, whether simple or wild, the importance it deserved in defining the artist and event. Sia's entire archive consists more than a quarter of a million photographs that document almost 35 years of music genre and giants.

Lisa's Crestview Charmer
Name: Lisa
Location: Crestview — Austin, Texas
Our home was originally built in 1955, in an area of town that is commonly thought of as a time capsule of mid-century Austin. There is an independent grocery store, pharmacy, deli, and barber in the heart of the neighborhood and the homes average between 1200-1500 square feet.
It can be a challenge to keep a home of this size clean and organized, with two busy adults, a growing toddler, and a dog, but with bins and baskets hidden away throughout the house, it helps. It also helps that our son's bedroom doubles as his play area, keeping stray toys from wandering around and taking over the rest of the house.
One of our favorite features of the house is the wallpaper in the hallway, which can be seen from every room in the house. Another favorite is the wall of books in our living room, bringing a lot of color and personality to the space.
When we bought the house, there was a very strong urge to buy everything at once and finish the decorating process. But I knew that the homes I have visited and enjoyed the most were not the ones that had everything perfectly matched; they were not the ones that looked like model homes. My favorite homes were those that were layered with the homeowner's memories, travels, tastes, and dreams, and that was the kind of home I wanted to have. I think when people visit our house, they know right away that it is ours.

CRESTVIEW � Sophomore Danny Born had two goals and an assists to lead the Crestview High School boys soccer team to a 3-1 win over West Florida High on Monday at Jack Foster Stadium. Five minutes into the opening half
CRESTVIEW � Sophomore Danny Born had two goals and an assists to lead the Crestview High School boys soccer team to a 3-1 win over West Florida High on Monday at Jack Foster Stadium.
Five minutes into the opening half Born found Caleb MacDonald with an assist. MacDonald took the pass and slipped it into the right corner of the net to give the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead.
Crestview's protected the lead the remaining 35 minutes of the first half and well into the second half.
Bulldog Coach Scottie Milton said the team discussed the difficulty of holding the 1-0 lead at halftime.
"Everybody was saying we can't sit on this (1-0) lead," Milton said. "But sometimes that's just the nature of the game. I think we did well having the pressure and we responded well when they scored."
The Bulldogs did indeed respond to the pressure after West Florida tied the match at the 67:24 point of play as a cold rain began to fall on the stadium.
"When they got that goal I think we reacted well and got two goals," Milton said.
With time ticking off the clock, and both teams playing outstanding defense, it looked as if the match would come down to a shootout.
Any thoughts of a shootout quickly disappeared when Born scored a pair of goals in a span of 33 seconds to give the Bulldogs (2-4) the win.
Tyler Hancock had an assist on Born's first goal that came with 9:27 left to play. Born scored on a breakaway with 8:54 left to play to seal the Crestview win.
A stingy Crestview defense pressured the Jaguars most of the night as the Bulldogs allowed only seven shots on goal. Bulldog goal keeper Jared Bufkin did his part as well turning away six West Florida shots.
Miltoncredited Cameron White, Blake Brooks, Joe Ensor, Trent Simmons as some of the key defenders that helped stymie the Jaguar attack.
"We stayed pretty organized throughout the game," Milton said. "We defended very well and we were kind of relying on that."
White said the win is big for the Bulldogs as they move forward.
"It was very important that we played good defense tonight," he said. "Our first four games we lost because we were battling injuries and couldn't get anything done.
"I think the win gives us more confidence going into play Tate next Friday."

Poor Ben & Jerry Must Have Had A Rough Adolescence If They Think Ice Cream Can Be Confused With Porn
from the we-couldn't-make-this-stuff-up dept
But trademark complaints can flow in the opposite direction as well. Reader Will writes in about how Ben & Jerry's, the ice cream producer, is suing Rodax Distributors and Cabellero Video for trademark violations surrounding their DVD "Ben & Cherry's".
The trademark lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Manhattan said the sale of hardcore and exploitive pornographic DVDs and related goods is tarnishing Ben & Jerry's Homemade Inc.'s name by creating an association with pornography. It said the claims arise from the distribution and sale of a series of DVDs containing "exploitative, hardcore pornographic films" featuring titles and themes based on "well-known and iconic" Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavors as well as packaging that contains key company features such as a grazing cow, green grass and large white puffy clouds.Yes, a cow eating its natural food below clouds is a key company feature. Even granting that, this is exactly how parody works. If you're making fun of something, which is what the pornographic movie purports to do (I haven't seen the video in question, only the cover, but I promise to do as much hands on research as possible), you're going to create a similar look and feel to whatever you're mocking. Porn has relied on parody protection in the past. I can understand why this might make Ben & Jerry's (BJs, if you like...) uncomfortable, but that doesn't make it actionable. Certainly it would be difficult to allege brand confusion, since no one in their right mind is going to think an ice cream company is going to dive into porn.
Even their complaints about the "names" of some of the film's stars should be covered by parody.
It identified some of the X-rated names similar to its own as "Boston Cream Thigh," "New York Fat & Chunky" and "Peanut Butter D-Cup." Ben & Jerry's has ice cream flavors titled: "Boston Cream Pie," "New York Super Fudge Chunk" and "Peanut Butter Cup."Again, parody. And those names aren't even all that risque. In fact, I'd say they're about on par with names like "Schweddy Balls" and "Caramel Sutra", which are actual Ben & Jerry's flavors. Now, as of the time of this writing, a judge has issued a temporary restraining order (pdf) against the porn producers pending an appearance on September 12th to hear their side of things. In the meantime, I'll be awaiting the court's decision at home, while trying to determine whether the Chubby Hubby in my freezer is a tasty treat or a sex toy.

'Christmas With Scotty McCreery' Clips Hit the Web
Scotty McCreery fans can find a preview of his new holiday album, 'Christmas With Scotty McCreery,' thanks to an early leak to the internet. Thirty-second snippets of all 11 tracks from the Christmas-focused release have been pieced together in a preview below. McCreery's album includes two originals and nine classic Christmas songs.
'Christmas With Scotty McCreery' is the singer's second studio recording following the platinum-selling 'Clear As Day' album, which was released in October 2011. The soon-to-be 19-year-old says his goal for the new project was to make people feel good about the holiday and to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
"There will be some songs that sound like a different Scotty," he says in a press release, adding, "not different as far as not country, but a different sound than they heard on the first album. Hopefully, they will be pleasantly surprised."
'Christmas With Scotty McCreery' will be available in full on Oct. 16. It includes standards like 'Let It Snow,' 'Jingle Bells,' 'Winter Wonderland' and 'Mary Did You Know?' The originals are 'Christmas in Heaven' and 'Christmas Comin' Round Again.'
Note: The 'Christmas With Scotty McCreery' preview clips have been taken down due to a copyright claim by IFPI.

Then there's the broader contradictions:
* Knox's 1st: Yasu was not introduced as a character in the question arcs, which is when Willard has enough clues for the solution. Neither was "The Man from 19 years ago". Beatrice was introduced in late in EP1, but not as inhabiting a physical body, so to accuse her at that time would've conceded the game for the Human side.
* Van Dine's 11th: The servants cannot be the culprits. Operating as accomplices doesn't conflict with this, but Shannon/Kanon couldn't have initiated the 1st twilight.
Van Dine may not be applicable, but the rules cited in Red are; for example in EP 8 Willard cited the 12th without Red, only a handful of lines after citing the 7th in Red. This indicates there can be multiple independent culprits, but reinforces that servants can't be one of them.
Also, it's not a dyed-in-Red rule, but a genre convention that the most obvious suspect isn't it. The exceptions to this aren't considered good examples of the genre, if not a different genre using the guise of mystery. After her introduction, Beatrice becomes the most obvious suspect, and 'Our Confession' only reinforces that.

The True Culprit
If she solved the epitaph, she would've known where the gold was and also have known about the bomb and a safe place to hide from it, just like Eva did in EP3. However, Rosa died, trying to outrun death, heading for water. Ergo, she did not solve the Epitaph.
Also, despite her motives, Yasu needs to have atleast one of the adults help her. Controlling the servants isn't enough, since the servants have no ability to control the adults' actions. She's not trying to frame Krauss and Natsuhi, but use them to set up her game.
Also, Beatrice's gameboards aren't necessarily bound by Van Dine's rules. Will's existence isn't satisfactory evidence since he doesn't use them to solve Clair's mysteries.
also, good job, he quoted a Van Dine in Red. That only technically means that it's true that Van Dine's 11th reads thusly, not that it applies.

Knox's 8th: It's forbidden for the case to be solved without Clues! Was it ever foreshadowed that Kuwadorian would be a safe haven from the bomb?

The fact that you could survive the "accident" in Kuwarodian actually hints that the "accident" had a radius of destruction.

Note that there is also the fact that Rosa knows Kuwadorian exists and roughly where it is, yet she still believed it possible to just run, and she wasn't even running in the right direction. This would seem to suggest she didn't accurately know the extent of the threat, which in turn would posit she didn't solve the epitaph or if she did, nobody appeared to tell her everything. More likely she didn't (or was cutting a deal for the answer to make it look like she did) and was working as an accomplice.

Show us where Van Dine's rules are explicitly stated to be applicable to Beatrice's games, when Dlanor won't even make the assertion that her games conform to Knox when asked in ep5. Explain the distinction between the brooch and mention of a secret heir and the revelation of '67 Beatrice and the treatment of Kanon and all of that other stuff which is more or less the same degree of foreshadowing. Demonstrate that Beatrice is not actively determining victimhood by showing how the First Twilight occurs absent her agency. Contextualize the payment boxes of ep4 without pre-planned accomplices.
Fantasy scenes still ground in reality in displaying some more important meaning. If the meaning of the ep2 midnight chapel scene is meant to relate to Rosa's activities, why then does it not give her anything of the sort of distinguish her from the other adults? Why is Beatrice the prominent figure? What is being said here? The meaning of the knock scene is clear in the subsequent use of red to remove the possibility of a knock existing; it is proof of a mutual lie and suggestive of a large conspiracy to present false information to Natsuhi.

Concerning the Flauros discussion, she is technically the same as Gaap as well as the Chiesters or Zepar and Furfur concerning that she personifies both a concept and an item. She is the explosion that rips apart the study in the Confession plot and her vessel are the explosives.
A certain element of distortion is important in most mysteries and as long as a character is introduced early on but alluded to even through apparently unconnected parts in the story, it would be the readers goal to make that connection.
Technically the mention of the possibility of a "secret heir" is the introduction of a character, be it a dead one or a living one. Also Beatrice in EP3 mentions that it is her who inherited all the gold from Kinzo, there is mention of her being the "master of the mansion at night", the servants never addressing their "master" by name.
And yes, she would have stopped if anybody found the gold, which is shown by EP7. This is certification that somebody else continued the murders in EP3. Who that person is is yours to choose, I think it was Nanjo, others think it was Eva, again others blame Kyrie (though that is pretty much ruled out by the EP8 manga), yet it is made very clear, even on the fantasy-plane, that it is not Beatrice/Yasu continuing the murders. In EP2 on the other hand it can only be her.

Doesn't the ep 8 manga make it reasonably clear that Yasu killed Nanjo in ep 3? I thought everyone else was ruled out?
As for the rule about servants, I often wondered if what Ryu was getting at is that Kannon and Shannon WEREN'T the killers. In a personality construct thing, Shannon would never kill George, and Kanon would never kill Jessica. So even when they survive after these people's deaths, it is because they did not and would not commit the crime, and it is not their plot (though them also truly not being servants is also possible under this interpretation, they are technically masters). I know it's awfully wanky, but that isn't exactly evidence against Ryu doing it.
Also yeah, I probably oversold how seductive Bice would be in that scenario (that is more like Black-Bice), but that doesn't mean they didn't mutually create a way for them to live together, and decide that it needed the gold. A whirlwind offer of "if we take the gold, we can live together" is still possible. Cat-box.

It creates a scenario where "Kanon" would never kill Jessica, but is perfectly content to allow "Beatrice" to do it. Or where both "Shannon" and "Kanon" are willing to die to deceive everyone in order to permit "Beatrice" to go on killing. And note this totally does happen for both their supposed loved ones, including twice to George.
One could argue for a multiple personalities deal and that Shannon and Kanon wouldn't voluntarily commit these acts, but I'm not sure you can actually back that up as it appears that they must either be willing accomplices or simply all the actions of a single will that is not in any way divided or insane, which I think is the only explanation that gets us to the answer of ep3 the way Will/Yasu saw it.
As an author this essentially means that Beatrice is caught in something of a lie. It's true that Shannon and Kanon won't do certain things, but they're just characters being acted out by the board killer who is entirely capable of doing all of those things even though they know that the servant characters would object to them. The notion of Kanon's struggles being useless is basically literal: Even if Kanon wouldn't do what the board killer wants, "Beatrice" can make him complicit because the true face wants to commit the murders. Essentially, it's Shannon and Kanon's unwillingness that's the act.
This seems a reversal from reality though, where Yasu's conflicting feelings and attachment to the people she cares for are the truth and "the culprit" is the mask. The Beatrice of the boards is not the same person as her creator at all.

It's true nothing killed Kanon, because the person didn't die, but Beatrice allowed Kanon to essentially be "eliminated" as a character. He may have had willingly complicit people in his fakery (for example he could've made up a line to Jessica, or simply had Nanjo lie to everyone), but the purpose of his death doesn't actually resist Beatrice; it assists her.
In other words, Kanon "taking a stand" against the witch ultimately only helps her and the whole thing comes across as entirely planned on the culprit's part. So I doubt seriously it was a personality issue as if Kanon had such a distinct personality he wouldn't willingly participate in the fakery. In short, Kanon is just an act and the culprit can "eliminate" him if she wishes, but she does so in conformity with how Kanon "would" behave.
It's not all that different from the fantasy narrative Beatrice weaves in to make Shannon and Kanon more noble in defense of their loves, something that clearly didn't happen in Turn because it was Shannon/Kanon/Beatrice who murdered them. I doubt seriously the killer was struggling with actual personalities opposed to the murder.

When it comes to a possible EP3 Nanjo-culprit theory it basically goes like this:
After all servants have "died" in the first twilight Nanjo seems fairly sure that he can secure a larger part of the cake for himself but also knows that nobody would take him seriously anyway (basically the "Forgery of Purple Truth" plot).
Why were Rosa and Maria murdered without the usage of guns? Because the culprit at that point did not possess a gun, which is also the reason why Rosa did not consider shooting.
The fourth to sixth twilight is actually the one that's most questionable, but also not impossible for him. Hideyoshi was likely killed in the struggle with Kyrie and Rudolph though.
Nanjo was actually the one who probably knew that George left and was the one who was "convinced that the witch did it". It is unlikely that Eva killed George and other people have alibis. He could have snuck out and killed him out of fear of being found out.
The strangulation of Natsuhi and Krauss could also be explained by the culprit not having a gun.
In the end Yasu takes revenge on Nanjo by shooting him at point range.
The fact that the stakes were used also highly speaks against Eva being the culprit, but it is likely that Nanjo would know where the stakes are.
Of course this could also all be explained with lovesick, insane Yasu theory.

The only issue I'd take with that is... Nanjo, really? He's a doughy older man who isn't known for being physically strong. While it's possible he could in fact kill Rosa in a surprise attack (it's not like Rosa wouldn't let him get close, she has no reason to fear him) and I don't have any objection to his being able to kill Maria, Krauss is a big guy and there's no clear indication as to how Nanjo might have incapacitated both he and Natsuhi in such a way as to allow him time to kill them both.
If Krauss were conscious, I doubt Nanjo could kill him without a weapon. If Krauss were somehow rendered unconscious prior to death, how did Nanjo do it and when? The only way I could really see this working is if Nanjo basically sedated both of them first, then dragged them somewhere they wouldn't be found immediately and strangled them out. Nearly anything that would require Nanjo to straight-up fight people seems implausible, to say the least, so he would have to surprise, trick, or otherwise deal with people in an underhanded manner.
Neat idea though. Although it makes me wonder why he wouldn't have tried anything with Jessica when "treating" her. Seems like it would've been an ideal time to kill her off, and she's basically helpless. Or was he perhaps planning to do it and just never got around to it on account of getting shot? And if he was surprised by Yasu, does that mean he just assumed the First Twilight to be real? Isn't "confirming" the deaths practically his whole job as an accomplice?

The Python client library for the GoCardless API
Project description
[![GoCardless Python Client Library](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/gocardless/images/client-lib-headers/python-lib-header.png)](https://gocardless.com/docs?language=python)
[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/gocardless/gocardless-python.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/gocardless/gocardless-python)
This module provides a wrapper around the GoCardless payments API, the interface to the api is provided by the gocardless.Client object. See the documentation for that class for how to obtain an instance.
By default the library will attempt to use the GoCardless production environment, for testing purposes this is not what you want and you should set the gocardless.environment to "sandbox".:
>>> gocardless.environment = "sandbox"
Set your account details::
>>> gocardless.set_details(app_id="kzCOPw2JtJvRQxKOPEREQTGvxLvkoMS1Eb0Dgl5QVc1W0NKpOEZDvESfGOI_kkG2l", >>> app_secret="IO9AlgPsbYNCtFlcOFGROBrGB3Mi07PFYSn2zx4uK5xaWJI1AzwnYeC86x46ji_g", >>> access_token="5EFkzOrUOZ8t+iaP86NggIy+FOFSD0f7QMnMd+Q3P4mQk17Kzq9G1vYrNlEWFldlg", >>> merchant_id="02FX1YFDAS")
You can now use the gocardless.client object to generate urls for receiving payments.:
>>> gocardless.client.new_bill_url(10)
Users who click on this link will be taken to the GoCardless website to make a payment to your account.
You can also use it to query the api for information about payments resources using an active resource style API. For example, to get all of a merchants bills:
>>> merchant = client.merchant() >>> merchant.bills() >>> [<gocardless.resources.Bill at 0x29a6050>]
Fork the repo then clone it to your machine and install in "develop" mode (preferably using a virtualenv):
mkvirtualenv gocardless git clone https://github.com/<username>/gocardless-python cd gocardless-python python setup.py develop
Install the testing dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
and run the test suite:

Hear a live concert every Friday at 12noon ET from WXPN and NPR Music
Broadcast live from the stage at World Cafe Live
Listen to the Concert Live on the Radio and Online at XPN.org/listen.
Formed in San Diego in 2005, Delta Spirit have been
gaining recognition for their impressive blend of soul,
folk, blues, and Americana. This five-piece unit has
also been praised for their unconventional choice in
instruments, such as trashcans and orchestral bass
drums, coupled with their spiritually-themed lyrics
courtesy of vocalist Matt Vasquez.
Like a true rock and roll fable, Delta Spirit formed when singer/songwriter Matt Vasquez was discovered by his bandmates busking at a San Diego light-rail station late into the night. Apparently they liked what they heard, because after exchanging contact information, Delta Spirit was quickly formed. Now, five years later, Delta Spirit has just released their second album, 2010's "History From Below," and have toured with the likes of Dr. Dog, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and Cold War Kids. Perhaps the greatest testament of all to their budding mainstream appeal, the band has gone on to play on the show Late Night with (then-host) Conan O'Brian and Last Call with Carson Daly.
On their follow up to 2008's "Ode to Sunshine" Delta Spirit continue to craft their unique brand of barroom rock and roll, complete with soulful singing, jingling pianos, thumping drums, and rough acoustic guitars. Yet, probably what stands out above all on "History From Below" is the expressive, affecting songwriting the band displays. Vasquez shows a keen ability to draw out the emotion in a song, and draw the listener into his band's frantic, moving world. Brimming with whiskey-soaked enthusiasm and inspired wordplay, Delta Spirit have created one of the most poignant, memorable albums in some time.
Join WXPN Friday, July 2nd, at noon for a free performance by Delta Spirit.

Recent Release: History From Below
Release Date: June 8, 2010
Label: Rounder Records
Origin: San Diego, California
The sunny indie pop-folk duo between actress/singer Zooey Deschanel and popular guitarist/songwriter M.Ward seemed like an
unlikely pairing at first, but after the duo met on a film set to record a Richard and Linda Thompson cover, they instantly
bonded through music. Prior to the start of She & Him, Deschanel had been working on various demo recordings but was too shy to
step into the spotlight. But upon hearing her work, M.Ward decided to play guitar and focus on production while Deschanel
turned to the piano, banjo and vocals. The result was their debut album "Volume One" (2008), a shimmering '60s inspired
classic folk album that was as humble as their name. Immediately following the album's release, they began touring at
various festivals around the country including Noise Pop and SXSW. As their sound graced more and more crowds, the duo
found their introspective and bright tunes making their way to the top of the charts. Volume One was named Paste's Album of
the Year.
Realizing the success of their work as well as their undeniable musical chemistry, the two went back to the studio to record and produce another batch of uplifting songs. With help from engineer, bassist and vocalist Mike Coykendall, the duo's sophomore album "Volume Two" was released to an enthusiastic and ever-growing fan base. The album still captures that dreamy, bright and hopeful energy of their first, but with its richer harmonies and lushly layered arrangments, "Volume Two" is more emotional and confident than what they've done before.

The stories started circulating long before John Simon first set foot on Ohio State's campus and became such a program favorite that his head coach talked about naming his next child after him.
By the time he got to elementary school, Simon was already performing a daily regimen of pull-ups and sit-ups. He lifted 225 pounds 31 times as a 16-year-old. Before he graduated from high school, he had benched 450 pounds and squatted 700.
"People really didn't believe us," said P.J. Fecko, the head football coach at Cardinal Mooney in Youngstown, Ohio. "It spread like wildfire. We'd go play in Cleveland and they'd ask, 'Did he really do that?' It was embarrassing because people would be like, 'Yeah, sure he did.'"
Simon's weight-room feats and maniacal work ethic achieved near mythical status around Youngstown, where he grew up with a weight room in his house, and in Columbus where the defensive end/outside linebacker spent so many hours working out and watching film that the Buckeyes coaching staff had to turn out the lights at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center and send him home.
A fourth-round pick by the Ravens last week, Simon reported to the Under Armour Performance Center for the first time for Thursday's unofficial start of rookie minicamp and between meetings and speeches, he carved out some time to get a workout in.
"I just try to go in and work," said Simon, last season's Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year after recording 44 tackles and nine sacks. "It's something I enjoy so I don't want to call it work. It's a stress reliever for me. It's a way to get away, be with teammates, hoot and holler at one another, compete with one another. It's something I really enjoy."
Before even pulling on Ravens' jersey, Simon had already been compared to outside linebacker Jarret Johnson. Also a fourth-round pick who played for the Ravens for nine seasons before signing with the San Diego Chargers last year, Johnson was a fan favorite, due to his hard-nosed and no-nonsense style and his ability to get everything out of modest physical tools.
Simon, whose mentality was sharpened by a blue-collar upbringing in Youngstown and a father who still gets up at 5 a.m. every weekday to work out, possesses some of those same attributes.
Simon (6-foot-1, 257 pounds) had 20.5 career sacks at Ohio State while starting 37 of 50 games over four seasons. In his final college game, Simon had four sacks in an overtime victory over Wisconsin despite sustaining a knee injury that left him unable to play the following week against Michigan.
Simon also seemed doubtful for a Sept. 15 game against California but he played anyway and notched a sack in the Buckeyes 35-28 win. He then gave an emotional speech afterward that left Urban Meyer, Ohio State's first year head coach, professing his admiration and respect for a player he was just getting to know.
"Are we doing enough for our team?," Meyer asked in his postgame news conference. "[Simon] — what he just did in there — am I doing enough? Are we doing as much as he's doing? No. We've got to do more."
Meyer then talked about naming his next child, "Urban John Simon Meyer," a comment that made a similar splash to the time that he called Simon a "freak" and compared him to Tim Tebow, the head coach's former quarterback at the University of Florida.
Simon said that he was flattered, but if he had it his way, he'd be allowed to go quietly about his business and avoid "unneeded attention." That's especially true now as he gets to know new teammates and a new defense.
The Ravens are deep at outside linebacker with Terrell Suggs, Elvis Dumervil and Courtney Upshaw so they figure to move Simon around a little and capitalize on his versatility. Simon said Friday that "wherever they tell me to go, that's where I'm going to fit best," a comment that surely would resonate with his former defensive line coach at Ohio State, Mike Vrabel.
"I think a good spot for John is going to be anywhere where he can go out and help the team right now," said Vrabel who played 14 seasons in the NFL. "I think he's a guy that will play a bunch of different spots early on. But I promise you, he's going to find a way to help his team be better than what they were.
"Academically and athletically, he's found ways to get it done and do it at a high level. It's not going to change at the professional level. If anything, it's going to provide him another avenue and more time to do and work."
Vrabel told stories of Simon arriving at the weight room at 6 a.m. and then staying "until we turned the lights off." Fecko said such behavior was already in place by the time Simon arrived in high school.
"You hear all those stories but with this kid, it is unique," Fecko said. "Some folks just think, 'Oh yeah, we see that all the time.' But once you get a hold of him and you are around him, you start to figure it out. He's not the most imposing guy when it comes to the NFL but you figure it out very quickly. You knew there was something special about him."
He developed his passion for fitness from his father, John Simon III, and he admitted that he is very much a product of his surroundings.
"There's a different kind of pride in Youngstown that you don't find in other cities," Simon said. "Even though it's not the safest city, people are proud to call it home. I think that blue-collar mentality translates to the people that live there in any work that they do, whether it be football or any kind of job."
Simon III was a former body builder who started to take his son to the gym at a very early age. Ultimately, Simon III decided to turn one room in the main part of his family home into a gym.
"It's the nicest room in the house," said Simon who was once benched 225 pounds 48 times. "It's insulated, we keep it clean. Every year, we kind of put a new piece [of equipment] in there. It's got everything you need in there."
When asked if he approved of his newest weight room that he'll surely spend some time in, Simon smiled.
"The facility is awesome. It's second to none and to know you're playing for the defending Super Bowl champs is something that is very special," Simon said. "Not too many people get the opportunity to do that. I'm just here to contribute and hopefully we get another one."

I don't know what crawled up my ass but I thought it was a great idea to try to make the Weekender bag by Mrs. Amy Butler. . yeah and somehow I convinced Colleen to join me. We sat down and made a plan and gathered our supplies. A long time ago, I bought a fat quarter set of Outside of Olso by Jessica Jones. If you're interested in purchase some, it's still totally available:
Hauling my machine, supplies, and kid to Colleen's house was easy. . .it was assembling the bag that kicked my ass. Recently, I used Mrs. Fransson tutorial Mod Mosaic block and thought, "Hey! Lets do that on a bigger scale with Outside of Olso!" For the sashing (grout lines) I decided to use denim and make them 1″ finished. I also used the denim in the zipper part of the bag (saddles). I love how it turned out:

I want to give a special shout out to my good friend, Colleen – thanks for the help buddy!
Now off to Sewing Summit – I went last year and if you missed my post then here click here. I think this year was a lot better for many, many, many reasons. Sewing + bloggers = a fun packed weekend for all! If you don't believe me here's a bunch of pictures of a goofball:
There were a lot more hands on classes than last year! Yeah, I took 5 classes that needed prep and since I spent the week making the weekender. . my prep work was shit. Luckily, the instructors were awesome and the sewing rooms were open to 1am to help me get ready. I have a couple WIPs to finish but I loved the weekend!!!
Friday night was the Salt Lake Modern Quilt Guild Mixer . . . basically a mixer for the attendees and our guild. I was tweetin' and instagram'in teasers all before Sewing Summit – if you could see the look on the bellhop's face when he saw what he had to hail to the room, I mean you only could imagine right?
I think a lot of folks had fun. . well I hope they did. . . .We tried to get everyone who came a swag bag and if they didn't we had tons of raffle prizes.

I'll be attending next year for sure – and I hope I was approachable . . . true, I'm not a shy person but it's also weird for me to introduce myself to ppl. I'm sure if you came up to me and said, I'm this person on twitter/flickr/instagram we'd become close like peas and carrots but I can't just go up to folks and say, "Don't you know who I am?" lol
Had a blast will see you at Sewing Summit 3.0!!!

Jeno Nemeth
Born: April 5, 1868
Rakoczifalva, Hungary
Jeno moved to Szentes from a tiny farming community near the city of Szolnok, where he and his two brothers had been born to Jewish parents. Jeno owned a store that carried groceries and hardware items. He lived in the southeast Hungarian town of Szentes. Jeno and his wife, Juliana, had two married daughters, Barbara and Margit. Their son, Desider, was a dentist in Szentes.
1933-39: My wife and I work hard in our store. The Depression of the 1930s was devastating, but things are starting to get a little better. Desider has married and we have a new granddaughter, Maria. Barbara, who had moved to the nearby town of Torokszentmiklos when she married, has now divorced and moved back to Szentes with her son. She works with us in the store.
1940-44: It's been five months since German troops occupied Hungary in March 1944. Members of the Hungarian fascist party, Arrow Cross, confiscated our store and home. My wife, Juliana, our grown children and their families, some of our in-laws and I were among thousands of Jews from towns around Szeged who were deported to a makeshift ghetto in Szeged's sports field and brickyard. Now we've been taken by train to Austria, via the Strasshof labor camp, to a labor camp in the east Austrian farming village of Goestling an der Ybbs.
Jeno and his family were among 80 Jews in the camp who were machine-gunned to death by retreating SS soldiers just days before U.S. forces reached the area.

LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) Maybe North Carolina should have just gone to the beach. Butler is the team to beat in Maui.
Rotnei Clarke and Kellen Dunham each scored 17 points Tuesday night to lead the unranked Bulldogs past No. 9 UNC, jumping out to a 17-point halftime lead and holding back several second-half surges from the Tar Heels in the second round of the Maui Invitational.
The Tar Heels (4-1) missed their first three shots and never led.
One day after a buzzer-beater over Marquette, Butler (3-1) held North Carolina to 18 points in the first half. It was by far the worst output in a half for the Tar Heels so far this season.
P.J. Hairston led UNC with 15 points.

Bali's Best Coffee & United Coffee Candy
Name: Bali's Best Coffee Candy
Name: United Coffee Candy
Two different kinds of coffee hard candy. United Coffee Candy is from Thailand and the candies are little, flat rectangles and the Bali's Best are from Indonesia (Bali) and are circular. Both have similar ingredients - leading with Sugar, then Glucose Syrup with Bali's Best adding a little dried milk and then both round it out with coffee powder and oil. Pretty simple, and both get it absolutey right.
Each of them are crisp and densely rich. Sweet but with a robust and full sweet coffee flavor. Bali's is just a little creamier because of the milk powder, but it also has a little more of a bitter twang to it.
Though the shapes are different, each are individually wrapped in sealed pouches.
Both are definitely keepers, something I'll keep in the car or my purse or even the desk drawer. Easy to share and since I'm the type who likes to crunch her hard candies, these are very satisfying with a toffee consistency.

Butter Peanut Nougat
Name: Milk Nougat
Nougat is tough stuff to define. Some nougat is light and fluffy, others are crackly, sticky toffee-like candy. This is the latter. The little bricks are hard and crack when you smack them on the corner of a table. You can easily bite off a third of it and after it gets warm in your mouth is has a nice give for chewing.
Think of the nougat chips that you have in a Toblerone bar ... these are like that only with a very strong butter flavor instead of honey and peanuts.
I like the consistency and fresh flavor. The Milk Nougats are also wrapped in that fantabulous edible rice cellophane. However, after chewing them down to the last little bit, a very strong and artificial butter flavor erupts. Like the that artificially flavored butter you get in bad movie theater popcorn. It doesn't go well with the delicate vanilla of the nougat or the hearty peanuts.
I'm a huge nougat fan, I love the stuff from Italy (torrones) and the French nougats (both soft and hard) and was a bit disappointed with the unpleasant butter taste to these. Alas, that's affected my rating. I'll give other Chinese nougats a try if I run across the, as everything else, including the packaging and tiny bite size of these is excellent. Also, the price can't be beat. European nougats are often over $5 a pound.

Turkish Delight
Name: Turkish Delight (Hazelnut)
I've gotten the impression that some of those who come to the Candy Blog are curious about Turkish Delight. I've already detailed my impressions of The Ginger People's Ginger Delight. Today's review is of a more traditional Turkish Delight.
But first a little background from the back of the package:
Most Turkish Delight I've had in the past was coated in a mix of cornstarch and powdered sugar, which makes it rather messy and though it's a pretty bland coating, it does make for a sweet coating. Turkish Delight is generally flavored with scents - light and aromatic scents. In the past I've had Orange Blossom, Rosewater and Lemon.
This traditional Hazelnut Turkish Delight from Sultan is coated in coconut, which keeps the cubes from sticking together or to your fingers but also adds a wonderful nutty/chewy texture to the delicate sugar paste and hazelnuts (filberts).
Turkish Delight is probably not a treat for everyone. It's not really a "snackable" treat where you can take it to a movie and pop them in your mouth. It's more like something you'd put out with some nice cookies on a plate with some delicate tea.

Fragrant Gummies
Name: Fruits Gummy
Aside from the name, these were great. Well, and the packaging.
The drab outside package featured rather drab pictures of the fruits flavored within. After opening there were over a dozen little individually wrapped gummies - each in a pretty colored wrapper with a fruit shaped gummy within. You can pretty much improve you enjoyment of these by dumping them from that outside bag. The fruits are pineapple, orange, strawberry, lychee and melon. The orange ones are cute little slices the size of an actual tangerine slice and the pineapples (also pictured) are tiny little pineapples.
Unlike the German-style gummies, these are a little sticky on the outside, which makes the individual packaging necessary. Biting into them, they're less rubbery than gummies as well, but have that same great chewy-but-not-sticky texture that you find in a firm gelatin. The flavor is really intense, very fragrant. But, while the pineapple smells really good and is sweet, it has not tang to it. There is no sour associated with these gummies at all - they're all sweet and perfume.
I found it refreshing and really pleasant, while I think I'd prefer them with a bit of a bite to them, the flavor is so dense I can see why they went this way. The package heralds that they're made with real fruit juices and pretty much nothing else but that and some gelatin/pectin and sugar.

Pumpkin Pie
Name: Green Tea Mini Pie
These are one of the oddest things I've bought in ages. Made from pumpkin seeds, corn syrup and green tea concentrate they're little bricks of pumkin seed brittle.
They look a bit strange, very green like they're made from seaweed or something. And they smell like, well, green tea and pumpkin seeds - which is not exactly an enticing combo. But the simplicity of it and the unique essence of pumpkin and green tea is really nice. They actually look like the picture on the package.
They're pretty good for snacking and not terribly sweet. They're mostly pumkin seeds, so it's very filling. The biggest drawback really is the price. At four bucks for about a third of a pound, they're pretty pricy for something that I usually throw out when carving a pumpkin.

Meticulously photographed and documented reviews of candy from around the world. And the occasional other sweet adventures. Open your mouth, expand your mind.

Re: Ctrl-V to paste - undo history / macro recording
I know that you can use "ctrl-r then *" to paste from the clipboard. However, in general use I (most people??) use ctrl-v to paste. As ctrl-v isn't registered into viemu's undo history, it can sometimes cause havok when undoing. To the point where I've actually lost date because of it. This also applies for macros (although, I do make a concious effect to use ctrl-r and * when recording a macro).
Is there any way I can get ctrl-v to be stored as part of viemu's undohistory/macrorecording?

Pinoy Australia Information Forum was founded by a small group of Filipinos whose aim is to migrate to Australia. It is now a leading online Filipino-Australian community site for Filipinos in Australia and a valuable resource for people also planning to migrate to Australia.
I'm very happy to announce PinoyAu Forum's new app called "SimplyStall" . It's a new Gumtree like service for Pinoys in Australia but in a way better!
So if you have any items just collecting dust? Why not convert it to cash?
If you are selling new items or products or wish to give an item away for free then this might be a good avenue for you.
This project is a new initiative to unify and have a common portal for Pinoys in Australia to sell and share stuffs.
It's now available on Google Play and Apple App Store.
Please do try it out. I'd appreciate if you can help me spread the good news and start selling your old or new stuffs.

Golden Eagles head to Death Valley for next two OVC
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Senior Kevin Murphy scored 26 points, going 4-for-4 from long range, and the Golden Eagles got a balanced effort while leading from start-to-finish Saturday night on the way to a 77-62 Ohio Valley Conference victory over Southeast Missouri in Eblen Center.
Tech (12-8/4-3 OVC) got 15 points and six assists from Jud Dillard and 10 points from Bassey Inameti as the Golden Eagles connected n 56.6 percent of their shots. Point guard Zac Swansey added six points, five rebounds, six assists and two steals.
The Redhawks (10-9/5-2 OVC), who came to town holding second
place in the OVC standings, were winners in six of their last seven
SEMO had three players in double figures in the scoring column, and were led by Marcus Brister with 15 points, five rebounds, six assists and three steals. Tyler Stone added 14 points and nine rebounds while Marland Smith finished with 14 points and four assists. Leon Powell added nine points and five rebounds.
Tech led wire-to-wire, racing out to a 10-3 lead in the opening
three minutes as Murphy scored five and Dennis Ogbe added
back-to-back layups. The largest first-half lead was nine points,
16-7, while SEMO clawed its way back to within one point a couple
of times late in the period.
A layup by Leon Powell with 4:47 remaining made it 28-27 before Bassey Inameti answered with a layup. Tyler Stone's jumper at the 3:38 mark made it 30-29, before the Golden Eagles netted the final seven points of the half. Tech's closing run included five from Zach Bailey, helping stake Tech to a 37-29 lead at halftime.
The lead appeared to go to 11 points but a 3-pointer by Zac Swansey at the buzzer was ruled to have been too late after an official review of the replay.
Tech's lead bounded around between six and eight points
early in the second half, before Brister hit a layup and Smith a
3-pointer to cut the difference to three points, 43-40, with 13:38
Murphy then scored the next seven points to give the Golden Eagles a 10-point cushion, 50-40, with 12:03 to play and the lead stayed in double digits nearly the entire time after that.
SEMO cut it to nine once, and later pulled to within eight, but never got any closer. The largest lead in the contest was the final 15-point margin.
The Golden Eagles will head out next week on the OVC journey known as "Death Valley" when they play at Eastern Kentucky Thursday night and Morehead State Saturday afternoon.
Tipoff for the game at EKU is at 6 p.m. CT, while the Morehead

Friends remember 'Goober Pyle' actor Lindsey
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Actor George Lindsey was remembered Friday as the grinning Goober who made television viewers laugh for three decades on "The Andy Griffith Show" and "Hee Haw."
A public memorial service drew an estimated 400 people who paid last respects to Lindsey, 83, who died Sunday.
He was the beanie-wearing Goober on "The Andy Griffith Show" from 1964 to 1968 and its successor, "Mayberry RFD," from 1968 to 1971. He played the same jovial character, a mechanic, on "Hee Haw" from 1971 until it went out of production in 1993. Reruns of those shows are still seen on TV.
Griffith did not attend, but sent a statement that was read by country music broadcaster Keith Bilbrey at the service at Westminster Presbyterian Church.
"George was a better joke teller than me, and I will say here that I 'borrowed' jokes from George that he may have 'borrowed' from Minnie Pearl," Griffith confessed. "George told me his fondest memories in show business were the years he spent working on 'The Andy Griffith Show' and 'Mayberry RFD.' They were for me, too."
Singer Ray Stevens performed "Everything Is Beautiful" during the service.
"He warmed a lot of hearts with his brand of humor -- wholesome, American humor," Stevens said before the service.
Actor Ernest Borgnine, Lindsey's close friend, sent a video tribute which was played at an informal gathering before the memorial. In it, Borgnine recalled the pranks they enjoyed playing down through the years.
"We loved to outdo each other," Borgnine said. "It was like therapy."
Also shown at the casual gathering in the church's fellowship hall were clips from Lindsey on "Hee Haw."
One of them: "Where was Solomon's temple?" Minnie Pearl asked him.
"Right on the side of his head," Lindsey responded.
Kenneth Junkin of Gordo, Ala., drove 300 miles to attend the service.
"He brought happiness into my life," Junkin said. "I had to come."
Several fellow performers from the two shows are dead, including Don Knotts (Barney Fife), Frances Bavier (Aunt Bee), Buck Owens, co-host of 'Hee Haw," and Minnie Pearl.
Lindsey also appeared on the TV shows "M(asterisk)A(asterisk)S(asterisk)H," "Gunsmoke," "The Wonderful World of Disney," "CHIPs," The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour," "The Real McCoys," "Rifleman," "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour," "Twilight Zone" and "Love American style."
He had movie roles too, appearing in "Cannonball Run II" and "Take This Job and Shove It." His voice was used in animated Walt Disney features including "The Aristocats," "The Rescuers" and "Robin Hood."
Lindsey is to be buried in Jasper, Ala., in his native state. He was awarded an honorary doctorate in 1992 by the University of North Alabama, and did much charity work for the state.
On display at the service was a framed tribute to him placed into the Congressional Record in 2001 and the cover of a Capitol Records album titled "Goober Sings!"
Another video clip shown was Lindsey walking on stage on "The Johnny Cash" TV show, proclaiming: "Hello I'm Tom Jones."

And just like every weekend
I was ready to throw down
Yeah I get a little tore up
So I call my bros up to meet me out on the town"
Ok, so I'm not meeting my homeboys and planning a night of beer chugging contests or anything...but this song just makes me sing out loud and dance in my car like a nut every time it comes on. I love Dierks.
I just finished wolfing down a salad made from all the leftovers of last night's fajita dinner. It was almost as good as a $5 box from Taco Bell...
I'm sitting here trying to figure out my plan for the night. With only having 4 offices (hooray for me only having one extra) to clean and then ten days of freedom, I'm thinking I wanna knock em' all out by tomorrow morning.
That way I can relish in the fact that we have the next week and a half together.
Together. We so need this little staycation/spontaneous/do as we please/anything/anywhere goes kinda break.
I just received a text from Steve a bit ago.
It said, "Am I allowed to watch the Yankees/Red Sox game at Doug's tonight with him and Josh?"...
Don't you love how he asked. I can just imagine, Steve sitting at his desk at work, answering calls, with his cell phone is his lap. Hoping. Praying. Wishing that he gets a "Why, of course you can sugarpiehoneybunchface" response.
The answer...
"Of course you can babe, you deserve it!!"
His response...
It's an early Friday night and as of lately, Friday nights mean we order take out or cook a quick n' easy dinner and watch movies together until one of us falls asleep. After a pretty emotional and busy week, we both need some down time. And just like I know how wonderful some good ole' "girl time" is for me, I know Steve deserves and will benefit from a "guy's night".
Isn't it funny how different girls and guys are?!
Us girls, we like to sit around our tables with our hands clutched around a nice glass of wine or a hot cup of coffee...call our appetizers, "tapas" because it makes us feel fancy, share our most intimate secrets and ambitions, cry, hug, laugh, talk about silly things, like - how we hate our thighs or badunkadunks as we end the night with a brownie induced coma.
Guys, on the other hand...
They like to gather their butts on the couch, rip open a few bags of greasy chips, crack open a few cold brewskies and scream at the dudes on tv.
They give each other big, strong bear hugs if their team wins and only cry like a buncha babies if their team loses.
Girls don't get it and guys don't get it.
But we do understand and never underestimate the power of time with friends. And the power it has to feed and heighten our souls.
Or in guys cases - their guts and Fantasy Baseball Leagues. ;)
Yesterday, I spent the day with Jessica. Time just seems to go by way too fast and we somehow felt like the 6 hours together was not even close to enough. Maybe it's because when we talk, we talk about one single thing for a good 49 minutes...maybe even 2 hours. For instance, we could see a block of swiss at the grocery store and all the sudden, we submerge ourselves into a cheese-tastic chat about our favorite queso. What cheeses we hate...What cheeses we just saw on sale at our local grocery store...What cheeses we like on our pizzas...What kind of cheese we read Jennifer Aniston prefers on her nachos. Yep, that's us in a nutshell. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
Me and Jessica in town for some coffee :)
Me and my "Voila! Cinna"- Hi Jessica ;)
Now, when Steve texted me...basically asking if he could swap our usual date night-in for a boy's night...
The Steve-arino knew what he was doing.
He knew there was no way I could possibly say no.
Not after all he did last weekend and surely not after the fantastic dinner he cooked for me, my Mom and my friend, Jessica.
Last night it was girl's night at our house and Steve played chef. He made chicken fajitas and us ladies had a nice n' relaxing evening catching up...and heck, even Steve did too. Steve's a talker. So, he has no trouble sitting and gabbing away with us.
We lost track of time and realized it was close to midnight. Time flies when you're havin' fun.
Jessica is a fellow crazy cat lady! :)
Her and Muffin
Me Jessica and Mom
HA! Not so sure what's happening here but I love it!
Twinkie being one of the girls.
It is a little insane to me, how in a matter of four days I can feel completely different. But then again, I am more than a little insane myself. I know a lot of things don't last forever but I'm going to use this happy day to take out my energy on tackling most of the offices and afterwards, enjoy the rest of the night...whatever that may be.
"Am I the only one who wants to have fun tonight?"
I'll be stopping in for a possible late night Sunday post and will be sure to still find blogging time on our time off. Come on now, you didn't really think I could ignore all you beautiful people, now did you?! :) And, I think blogging is one of my new bff's...so surely, I will be returning!!
Everyone, enjoy your weekend and whatever you do, have a blast!
*Wow...I just realized, I didn't even mention the subject of infertility/loss/sadness on this post (Um, Maria...you just did! Ok, ok...but only a sentence) ;) Not gonna even think about it tonight!
oh and ps-miss aunty flow is gone...I know how much that made your night ;)
"Come on come on
Get your good time on
Let's have a little fun tonight"
Lots of Friday lovin' Girls and Boys,

Gausman, Pustay are All-Stars in California Collegiate League
Got a note from Grandview pitcher Kevin Gausman's dad, Clair: "It's been an adjustment early on to face college hitters and travel has been tough at times. He has really settled in and his last three-to-four outings have been exceptional."
Indeed, in his last start July 17, Gausman went 6 1/3 innings with five strikeouts and a walk in Team Vegas' 4-1 loss in the California Collegiate League. He allowed three runs, but only two were earned.
