I am a life long musician with a 35+ year professional musical career in touring and studio work.
With over 25 years teaching music, I have developed comprehensive lesson plans, relying upon material I have accumulated and created in building a massive library of diverse stylistic lesson materials from Rock to Blues and Bluegrass, Folk, Finger Style to Slide guitar. I am also well versed in Worship, CCM and Gospel styles.
What do you want to learn? How far you go is up to you!
My music education began with formality in Classical music. I became a professional musician very early in life, at about age 18. I gained valuable knowledge and understanding in the "real world", through experience and from fellow musicians. Along the way I continued my studies, learning music theory which, combined with my experience, gives me a very broad understanding of many musical styles - because I have played them professionally and understand them from the inside out.
*** Lesson Details ***
For the beginning guitar or bass student, we start with the fundamentals, the things you must know in order to begin playing songs, as well as to create a solid foundation upon which you will build your skill set - whether for fun or for career potentials. And I remind everyone to remember to have fun, to not stay so strict with studying, but to venture out into the unknown, using what they've learned as a springboard to discover new things.
For intermediate and advanced players, I sit down and analyze where they are lacking in knowledge and abilities, and outline a plan to "fill in the holes". Within a couple weeks, new ideas begin to bubble to the surface and the light bulb of understanding begins to glow brightly. Then we keep building toward the personal goals I encourage these folks to create as the long term target, but with emphasis that short term goals also need to be made, too.
In all things, honesty is my baseline for what to expect with lessons.
For everyone, I remind them that learning is individual as anything else in life. Everyone learns at a different pace. But with patience and persistence, if they do the work, there will be results that can be measured.
So how much you learn, and in what time frame, is very subjective. But everyone will learn if they let themselves surrender to the process and understand some things will come quickly, other things will take time.

Having played many styles over the years, I am able to play in most of the popular forms: Rock, Blues, Americana, Pop, Alternative, Folk, Finger Style, Bluegrass, Worship & CCM, Gospel, and Standards style Jazz. And the styles of music I do not "know", I am able to break down and get a basic idea to help students in learning the foundation requirements to play in that style.

I knew I wanted to be a professional guitar player from the first time I picked up an electric guitar over 14 years ago. I started taking private lessons as soon as I got my first guitar, and without the crucial guidance and encouragement I received early on I certainly would not be the guitarist I am today, and that old guitar might even be collecting dust in a closet somewhere. Since I began teaching 8 years ago my goal has been to provide that same encouragement to beginning students and to help them realize that no matter what their ambitions are, they can be achieved with enough practice and they can have fun along the way!
When I started high school I realized there was a lot more to playing guitar than the hard rock and blues songs I had been learning up until then, so I enrolled in a music theory class, joined my school's jazz band and began taking classical guitar lessons at the University of Wyoming. After high school I accepted academic and music scholarships to attend the University of Oregon where I majored in Jazz Studies, and I graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor of Music degree with an emphasis on jazz arranging. While at UO I performed in student combos and my own rock band Just People as well as the award winning Oregon Jazz Ensemble. I also had the opportunity to perform with the Eugene Symphony Orchestra and play several shows with Grammy-Award winning country artist Lynn Anderson.
This diverse experience allows me to help my students improve their technique and gain a deeper understanding of the guitar, regardless of the style(s) of music they are passionate about. I firmly believe that anyone can learn to play guitar and that lessons should be fun, whether your goal is to be able to sing your favorite song and strum a few chords or start your own band and take over the world!
*** Lesson Details ***
I believe that lessons are most effective when they relate to your life and the music you love. I've talked to countless people who have told me "I used to play violin..." or "I played piano when I was younger...", and every time I ask them why they stopped I get a variation on the same answer: "I just didn't feel like practicing." My goal is for every student to look forward to their practice time, and to prevent it from falling into the 'chores' category next to taking out the trash and washing the dishes.
In order to make learning fun we'll start by learning songs that are meaningful to YOU. After becoming familiar with the basics like chords and strumming patterns, we'll dig a little deeper and look at the structure of the song and the fundamentals of music theory that went into composing it. After learning a few songs this way you'll gain not just a larger vocabulary of chords and rhythms, but also the tools to start writing your own music. From there we can develop a more concrete lesson plan based on your individual goals as a musician, whether you're interested in songwriting, improvising, advanced techniques or music theory.
In addition to practicing the material covered in each week's lesson I'll often give students small homework assignments, which can range from finding a musical example of a topic we're learning to writing their own chord progressions. I'm very relaxed and easy-going, but I expect students to come to each lesson prepared to work on new material after a quick review of the previous week's lesson.
After a few months of lessons each student will be able to comfortably play several songs from beginning to end, play basic major and minor scales, discuss the basic structural elements of songwriting (verse, chorus, etc) and tell all of their friends how much fun they're having learning to play guitar!
*** Studio Equipment ***
Living room area w/ guitars and amp, no waiting area for parents but they can sit in on lessons. Lots of street parking.

My name is Kyle S. and I'm incredibly passionate about music education for all ages. Over twenty years of playing all instruments has taught me there is not one specific way to teach music, so I change my curriculum for every student and completely customize what you learn to how you learn, and what you're interested in. I started teaching music lessons in after school programs when I was eleven and fell totally in love. I continued to do this for many years driving to neighboring towns, volunteering at church youth groups and local Boys and Girls Club all around my hometown.
I went on to study Music Education at Oregon State University and Guitar Performance at the University of Oregon and Jazz Performance on Guitar at Portland State University! At each of these Universities I taught students my age as well as locals in each town and have been supporting myself entirely through music since 2008!
In Portland I've been gigging, playing on records, recording music for films, and volunteering every week at Nonprofit Music Schools around town to help underprivileged kids, and expose them to the joy of music. Give me a call and we can talk about what you're interested in, and get lessons started.
Look forward to hearing from you!
*** Lesson Details ***
I'm fairly laid back, and teach from a number of different texts depending on the interests of the student. Each student is different, and I vary instruction accordingly. I have a lot of experience songwriting, composing, and playing as a sideman in groups on different instruments. I've been part of bands led by myself and been hired by other people, as well as composing for different groups of instruments from trios to full orchestras.
If there is interest, I can also provide worksheets based on the curriculum and standards held by the University of Oregon, and Portland State University.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Private home studio equipped with a many guitars, a piano, a Wurlitzer, electric bass and amplifier, two drum kits, and a beautiful kitty.

I've been playing and studying guitar since I was seven years old. I've attended Berkley School of Music summer workshops, camps, seminars, and presented music theory papers at conferences at the University of Oregon. I can and am willing to teach any type of musical style or interest to any skill level!

A Professional Musician, I am now happy to pass my skills and knowledge on to the next generations so that they may have ALL the fun and enjoyment of music in their lives, that I had in mine.
Having toured the East Coast Venues (NYC to Key West) for 30 years, and self produced 10 CDs, I have 3 EMMY AWARDS for soundtrack music for the EXPEDITION FLORIDA SERIES, Nature Documentaries. They were funded by the University of Florida, Museum of Natural History, and the Tourist Development Council of Alachua County, Florida.
Playing acoustic and electric six string guitars, electric bass guitar, piano and keyboards, drums, percussion and hand drums, I majored in Flute and Voice at UF and have spent my life immersed in and obsessed by the world of music.
I have played classical, rock, reggae, folk, jazz, swing, country, bluegrass, praise, gospel, afro-pop, ska and 80's music, and have toured as a solo act, a duo, a trio, and with a full 6 piece band, SKATTERBRAINZ, for 8 years.
I teach lessons and classes full time, and also perform LIVE and in person frequently in local venues for profit and community service.
*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons start with learning the names of notes, how to read music, a bit of music theory (time signature, sharps and flats) and how this translates to the instrument the child chooses. All instruments are taught by fingering first and then musical notes second. It is easier for the child this way, and he/she can be playing a song with both hands by the end of first lesson.
As the child learns the beginning steps of reading and implementing music, I encourage them to tell me what songs they like, and then try to find an easy one to start with.
So that while we are learning "real music" we are also having fun with a piece that your child enjoys and has "CHOSEN".
This way they have some discipline AND some fun!
As pieces are mastered, the same pieces can be redone on different, more difficult levels, so that pieces are always growing and improving.
Eventually the student can read music competently on the instrument, as well as hear and play by ear.
At higher levels I teach the ability to improvise and read music and chord charts in order to play professionally with other musicians. I also encourage students to get with other students and friends to have music "sessions." They can bring their musical friends to lesson to help learn songs for TALENT SHOWS or CHURCH or what ever their immediate needs or desires are. I can also record "Karaoke" tracks for songs they write or want to sing for talent shows/ auditions.
All lessons are custom designed for the student's abilities, tastes and goals. ALL LESSONS ARE DESIGNED TO BE FUN, and ENJOYED BY THE STUDENT as well as the instructor. I want both of us to have a great time in lesson and learn while we do.

I have been a guitar and voice instructor for over 15 years, and a piano teacher for 3. I have currently added beginning violin and ukulele. I have also tutored elementary students and worked for Montessori's for many years. I really love this job! I had a real hard time learning guitar when I was growing up because of an accident to my left arm, but I wanted to play so much that I was able to overcome it. Because of this, I think I have learned to be a very patient teacher. I see students who get frustrated and think that it's too hard to play the guitar, but I promise you my program is fun and simple. I can show you the steps to success. I have taught over 500 students in a variety of cities from Minneapolis Minnesota, to Los Angeles California, and now Portland Oregon. I have had individually and group taught over 28,000 lessons in that time, so I have dealt with every kind of person including those with disabilities. I am currently obtaining my Masters in Music education and Psychology from Marylhurst, and I have taught every age from 5-70. I am also a performer, and I own my own music publishing company through ASCAP (American Society of Composers Authors and Publishers). I currently teach Piano to level 3, so if you are a beginner, you will love my new program. Music is my life, I can help you make your dream of playing a musical instrument come true, even in a few short lessons. You can do it!
* I hold recitals twice a year in May and November. Check out my videos.
*** Lesson Details ***
The thing I have learned over the years teaching guitar is that everyone learns differently. I have taught in family situations where there are two or three siblings learning at the same time, but each sibling learned the skills that are unique to them. Some students are better at playing rhythm, some students are better at lead, some students are better with barre chords. As long as you are enjoying playing the guitar, you will be able to grow in every area at your own pace. Music should be a fun and rewarding experience. My lessons usually include songs that you like to play and are at your level of playing ability. We can play as a band too. When you are ready, I love to bring out the drum machine while you play guitar and I play the bass notes, giving you the feel of a live group situation that can make learning at your lesson more fun.But if that's not for you we can just play guitar together too, whatever makes you feel the most comfortable is how you will be able to learn the best. Tell me what you need I am always here to help you.

Benign and malignant tumors can affect the nail unit, causing a deformity. These tumors include noncancerous myxoid cysts, pyogenic granulomas, glomus tumors, Bowen's disease (an early form of skin cancer), squamous cell carcinoma, and malignant melanoma. When doctors suspect cancer, they perform a biopsy and may recommend complete removal of the tumor as soon as possible.
Hutchinson's sign—a black discoloration of the area around the nail, including the lunula (half-moon at the base of the nail), cuticle, and nail fold (the fold of hard skin overlapping the sides of the nail)—may mean there is cancer in the nail bed. When this sign is present, doctors perform a biopsy and begin treatment as quickly as possible.

If youre over 50, you might feel left out of fashion.
Style on TV, in magazines, on blogs and on the streets is geared to younger women. And those short skirts, ankle-straining heels, vacuum-sealed pants, neon-bright colors and sheer clothes are pretty hard to pull off.
Still, that doesnt mean you have to settle for muumuus, mom jeans and other atrocities people expect you to wear.
Send the right message
Theres a way people interact with older women that could be influenced by your attire. If you look tired, people make the leap that you arent ready to participate. If your clothes are frumpy and fuddy-duddy, someone might think your ideas and outlook are dated and out of touch, too.
Dont make it easier for someone to dismiss you. And dont let frumpiness win.
Pick some elements that suit your age and station in life, and you can look more vital and approachable. That adds excitement to your life.
I think there are lots of us who still care about how we look and have the money to splurge on ourselves a little bit, Mollie Rasor wrote in response to my Refresh Your Style makeover of Judith Seligman, who is 73.
Rasor and a business partner own Meetings Plus More in Cary, which does meeting management for conferences and events. Its very difficult. I dont want to look like I dress too young; then again, I want to be stylish-looking.
Reassess and refine
You should reassess what youre wearing about every five years once you reach 55, style expert and author Sherrie Mathieson says.
The truth is, you look the same at 30 as you do at 38, basically. But when you are 50, you see a huge amount of difference when you are 58, said Mathieson, author of Steal This Style, which shows outfits moms and daughters can both wear, and Forever Cool, which shows how men and women can update their standard, frumpy looks.
The aging process is kind of accelerated in your late 50s. You can no longer assume that what you bought at 50 will suit you when youre 65.
One key is quality fabrics and good fit so your clothes feel better, look better and wear well.
I call it refinement, Mathieson said. I think refinement projects the intelligence you want to project as you get older. You want to look modern and you want to look intelligent, current.
Dont forget your do
Another key element is good-looking hair. If you want a quick fix for age-related indignities like thinning hair or hair loss, do what the young girls do: Get extensions or clip-in hairpieces. They work with short or long hair.
The natural-hair clip-ins are perfect. It just adds to your natural hair, said Maria Josette Navarro at Anjolique Bridal in Huntersville, near Charlotte. She often styles mothers-of-the bride and other women preparing for special events.
If you want to do a style but you think your hair is too thin, this solves that instantly. You can have it cut and blended to your hair. And they last a long time.
Some women are reluctant to fix whats ailing their hair because they dont usually experiment, but once they see it works, they fall in love with it.
Whatever you decide, dont stress about it.
Worry is the last thing you want to do, Navarro said. That makes it worse.

It's time for a reprise on teachers. Is there a pair of eyes reading this behind which is a brain that cannot recall a favorite classroom mentor from years gone by?
Take a pen or pencil, and slowly write that name while recalling the face of that teacher. You have just paid a tiny tribute to someone who made a real difference in your life.
For me, it was Agnes Labarge. For Kaye, it was Mrs. Finnegan, who taught second grade at the Broadway School in Saranac Lake.
"She was a sweetheart and a lovely lady," Kaye recalls. "She was a gentle soul and never raised her voice. I had some not-so-pleasant experiences with teachers who left scars on my young mind, but Mrs. Finnegan made up for all of them."
Labarge did that for me in the tiny St. Lawrence County community of Massena Center. I have often spoken and written her name with great love and admiration. I was a rough-cut country boy and, rather than scold me in front of the classroom, she would take me to one side and speak softly. She never pointed to my transgressions, but focused on my strengths. She enforced my passion for reading by placing a paper pocket bearing my name, onto the wall by my desk. She suggested books I might enjoy and urged me to write (in cursive) a paragraph about my reaction to each story and place it in the pocket. It was a pleasant challenge, and the pocket was packed full by the end of fifth grade.
She never forced me into compliance that I can recall. I would have been the quintessential square peg in a round hole. She acknowledged that I always thought outside the box and told me that was something to cultivate. She allowed me to listen to all the older students while they sat on the front "recitation bench" for their lessons. I learned many sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade subjects along the way and enhanced my appetite for learning.

The red sauce is supremely simple, nothing much besides some fresh-tasting though canned crushed tomatoes. The Primavera, a white, is topped with fresh tomatoes, artichokes, eggplant, red onion, mozzarella and spinach — lots of flavors.

Frederick E. Allen, Forbes Staff
I am the Leadership Editor of Forbes.
There are signs that the National Rifle Association's power to block gun-control legislation is beginning to slip after the mass murder in Newtown, Connecticut, last Friday.
Most visibly, if also vaguely, President Obama said Sunday that he'd "use whatever power this office holds . . . in an effort aimed at preventing more tragedies like this." More surprisingly, and maybe more tellingly, Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, an unyielding gun-rights supporter and NRA member, said Monday, "I don't know anyone in the sporting or hunting arena that goes out with an assault rifle. I don't know anyone that needs 30 rounds in a clip to go hunting. I mean, these are things that need to be talked about." Joe Scarborough, the former Republican Congressman who is host of MSNBC's Morning Joe, said the shooting made his former pro-gun views suddenly "irrelevant" and called support for the assault weapon the killer used "nonsense." Those people weren't saying anything like that before now.
Meanwhile the gun industry is suddenly looking so unpalatable that Cerberus Capital Management has quickly announced that it will sell the company that made the gun used in Newtown, even though, according to Nathan Vardi, it will have to do so "as a desperate seller." And the NRA itself has gone into hiding, apparently, its website and twitter feed strangely silent. In fact, NRA supporters have been strangely silent, too. On Sunday every single pro-gun senator, 31 of them, refused host David Gregory's invitation to appear on Meet the Press.
Could this be the beginning of a major shift? The NRA's power appeared for a long time to be virtually absolute. Last year after Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was shot, her colleague Carolyn McCarthy of New York introduced a bill to ban high-capacity magazines like the one used in that multiple murder. More than 130 Democrats became co-sponsors, and not a single Republican. After the Columbine High School shooting in 1999, Congress tried to close the loophole that lets unlicensed dealers sell guns at gun shows without background checks on their buyers. That bill died a slow death in committee. Debra Maggart, a lifetime NRA member with a perfect voting record on gun issues, got driven out of the Tennessee legislature in this year's election because of her position on a single bill that pitted gun rights against property rights. "Because of N.R.A. bully tactics, legislators are not free to openly discuss the merits of gun-related legislation," she now says. "The N.R.A.'s agenda is more about raising money from their members by creating phantom issues instead of promoting safe, responsible gun ownership."
Meanwhile the evidence that the laxness of America's gun laws clearly correlates with its high level of gun violence mounts and mounts. The chart here presents it especially starkly. As Nicholas Kristof points out, "Children ages 5 to 14 in America are 13 times as likely to be murdered with guns as children in other industrialized countries" and "more Americans die in gun homicides and suicides in six months than have died in the last 25 years in every terrorist attack and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq combined." In Australia, on the other hand, a mass murder of 35 people in 1996 led to a ban on rapid-fire long guns, and the number of mass shootings in the country dropped from 13 in the 18 previous years to zero in the 14 years since.
The dominance of NRA-backed gun libertarianism in the U.S. is not as timeless as many think. It is a recent phenomenon in historical terms. As Jeffrey Toobin explains, courts agreed for more than a century that, in the Second Amendment,
the first part, the "militia clause," trumped the second part, the "bear arms" clause. In other words, according to the Supreme Court, and the lower courts as well, the amendment conferred on state militias a right to bear arms—but did not give individuals a right to own or carry a weapon.
Then in 1977, Toobin writes, "a coup d'etat at the group's annual convention . . . brought a group of committed political conservatives to power" and they "pushed for a novel interpretation of the Second Amendment, one that gave individuals, not just militias, the right to bear arms. It was an uphill struggle. At first their views were widely scorned. Chief Justice Warren E. Burger, who was no liberal, mocked the individual-rights theory of the amendment as 'a fraud.'"
But the NRA never let up. According to The New York Times, "Gun control proponents say that perception of the N.R.A.'s vast political clout largely dates to the 1994 midterm elections, when Republicans seized control of the House and Senate after passage of an assault weapons ban under President Clinton. That image was further enhanced in the 2000 election, when the N.R.A. claimed credit for helping elect George W. Bush to the White House."
Now we've arrived at the curious situation where it is accepted that the Second Amendment, despite being about "the right to bear arms," can allow the banning of military weapons but prevents any outlawing of handguns. That's according to Justice Antonin Scalia's majority opinion in District of Columbia v. Heller, in 2008. As Toobin writes,
Conservatives often embrace "originalism," the idea that the meaning of the Constitution was fixed when it was ratified, in 1787. They mock the so-called liberal idea of a "living" constitution, whose meaning changes with the values of the country at large. But there is no better example of the living Constitution than the conservative re-casting of the Second Amendment in the last few decades of the twentieth century.
Toobin concludes that "it is clear that the scope of the Second Amendment will be determined as much by politics as by the law." If that's true, than it's also true that there are signs that the politics of guns is starting to shift right now, from Senator Manchin's and Joe Scarborough's public changes of heart to the fact that the NRA spent $14 million to defeat President Obama's reelection and failed.
There have been times in American history when public opinion decisively altered, never to go back. We can hardly believe that our nation once permitted slavery. We find it hard to comprehend that women were not allowed to vote, or that interracial marriages were illegal. Institutionalized racism became universally unthinkable only in recent decades. Will we someday look back and wonder how we could ever have allowed the legal ownership of assault rifles with high-capacity magazines, and why we felt that virtually anyone could possess a gun originally designed for military slaughter?
Nobody disagrees that the killing of 20 first-graders in a small town in Connecticut was a tragedy that must never happen again. Now the question is what will change to keep it from happening again.
Uh, it was the original author who presented such an equation. By focusing on the 2nd amendment, generally, and suggesting that the individual right to bear arms was a fiction foisted upon us by hypocrites, no distinction whatsoever was drawn between any sort of arms, and moreover, the fundamental argument against the 2nd amendment was presented in whole, and dishonestly, to boot.
I suppose I deserve to be blown up by a stick of dynamite too, huh? I can't believe such shoddy thinking is being presented at Forbes – this feels much more like Daily Kos, Huffington Post, MSNBC or any one of the other online asylums.
Mister Allen, the largest US mass-murder of school children was done with bombs, long before the Armalite series of guns was invented. McVey used what kind of firearm to destroy the pre-school/day care at the Murrah Federal Building, killing 19 children under age 6?
What's needed in this country, and is the heavy lifting, is reform of the mental health care system. We need three things:
1) Better records, with the determination of a dedicated State court to add or delete a person from the Prohibited Persons list. Cho, Loughner, et al would not have been able to purchase a gun.
2) Support for police and doctors who make that initial "a danger to himself and others" determination – not lawsuits against same, by "patient advocates".
3) Funding for mental health care, which is more comprehensive than writing a script for the flavor-of-the-day medication. Which, "may induce suicidal thoughts" – if I pay attention to the rapid-fire, end of commercial voice-over.
We'll enact "AWB II" long-before doing any of the above, much for the same reason we enacted the USA PATRIOT Act. Jerking knees. The Fourth and Fifth Amendments are nearly gone, not by Article V processes, but by Executive Orders and Congressional fiat.
We'll enact the "AWB II" as it avoids the 30 year overdue look into our so-called Mental Health Care System. It avoids funding. It avoids patient privacy. It avoids 'stigmatizing' persons by placing them on a Federally maintained database – and yes, I can see how that is stigmatizing.
But is your right to fly the freakflag any more absolute than preventing your access to firearms – ANY AND ALL firearms?
Federal Law declares who a gun "Dealer" is. If I sell a single gun, I'm not a dealer, unless "engaged in the course of regular business".
Personally, I see no reason to change who's defined as in the business – merely require NICS database access for all gun show transactions conducted on-property.
That can be done currently, by the BATFE, as each show has an organizer/organization.
Final points: Since 1968 we've prohibited "Felons" from having firearms.
The issue should be "persons convicted of a crime of violence" – as I'm unconcerned with the person who has a felony conviction for possession of marijuana, or tax evasion. THEY are not going to kill a school full of children
by whatever means possible. YMMV.
Remember this AR15 is not an "assault weapon". In reality only fully auto weapons are "assault weapons". The can be purchased but are highly regulated. Now I want whatever will be effective, unfortunatly after careful consideration I could come up with no law that in this instance would make any difference. I doubt that anybody else could but I would like to read and respond to any you might have.
I just can't believe that you think I would commit such a crime.
You're worse than simply ignorant. You have virtually no functioning brain. (I say say this with due respect, of course)
Hey Michaelondergard: I read through your comments and I know that you know that you are just resorting to name-calling the author now. The author presents a pretty sound argument. When you blame all crimes on mental issue you are willingly overlooking statistical research and evidence clearly showing that most violent crimes are not committed by mentally ill individuals but it has more to do with people's easy access to assault weapons. Wake up and smell the coffee and admit the truth, and have some ounce of sympathy for the victims.
John Lee, the use of AR-15/AK-47 style firearms in daily crime is actually very low. It's a headline maker, but no where near 1/10th the level of handguns use. Neither incidents nor injuries.
Use the FBI database and see.
Total violent death figures include suicides, and I'm told guns are to blame.
No gun, no suicide – so ban all guns now. Uh, what about funding mental health services instead. 30 years of none, is coming home to roost.
As a former medic, I know a lot about suicides, and of hundreds of attempts,
I'd place guns as >90% effective, trains as >90% effective, bridge jumping as >90% effective, and everything else <90%.
Any of the first 3, will often for the ~10% survivors, lead to a short life of misery.
Just this past election cycle, Massachusetts had a death-by-dignity prescription pill referendum.
So if suicide's the issue, why the push to authorize physician-assisted?
I thought that we were talking about this issue and the several other similar ones. Now if we are talking about general gun violence I noted that about 30 people die in Chicago every month. Also noted that Chicago is Obama's home town, run by his close associate, and has very strict gun laws. Seems that they don't work that well to me.
Anyone with any understanding of history and Federalism rejects your facile analysis of the Constitutional issues at hand. Further, it is a disheartening sign of the times that someone can get paid by an entity such as Forbes to casually dismiss the unparalleled reasoning of one of our finest legal minds, Justice Scalia. For you to go further and imply hypocrisy is just sickening.
It's this kind of flimsy thinking that led me to cancel my subscription to Forbes some time ago.
My suggestion to you?
Address yourself to (1) what has given rise to such an increase in the mentally ill, and (2) why are we, as a society, committed to the notion that it is compassionate to allow said mentally ill to prey upon the sane and innocent, and finally (3) why you are so willing to be so casually dismissive of Constitutional principles you find inconvenient and whether you're OK with others being similarly dismissive with principles you cherish?
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

The Priest's Children
PROD Ivan Maloča
SCR Mate Matišić
CAM Mirko Pivčević
ED Sandra Botica Brešan
PROD DES Damir Gabelica
MUS Mate Matišić
PROD CO Interfilm Produkcija / Zillion Film
When a naïve Catholic clergyman tries to boost the birth rate among his Dalmatian island flock, his plan sparks a host of unintended consequences. This acerbic satire from director Vinko Brešan (who is known and loved at home for using humour to approach sensitive historical and cultural topics) is currently Croatia's top-grossing production of the year.
Framed by scenes of a priest's confession, the film tells the story of why Father Fabijan (Krešimir Mikić) winds up in a hospital bed. Fabijan recounts his complicated tenure as spiritual adviser on the picturesque island of Dnevnik, a spot where burials far exceed births. When he hears the confession of harbour-side kiosk vendor, Petar, whose pious wife believes that he is committing a sin by selling condoms, it sparks a brainstorm.
In the spirit of the Church's stance on birth control, Fabijan decides to pierce the prophylactics that Petar sells. To make the plan more effective, Fabijan and Petar join forces with a crazed pharmacist willing to substitute vitamins for birth-control pills. Sure enough, the birth rate skyrockets and Fabijan's church is chock-a-block with pregnant brides. As Bresan pokes fun at hot-button ethical issues in highly cinematic, jauntily paced fashion, the film's tone smoothly shifts from blithe comedy to sardonic absurdity to melancholic irony…

The State Department of Education has released a list of schools that have adopted preliminary budgets that increase their tax rates above an alloted index defined by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 2006.
Locally, 10 schools were reported as going over their index.
Some were able to apply for four different referendum exceptions through the department. Those exceptions cover school construction debt accrued prior to the date of the law, school construction debt not previously approved by voters, special education expenditures and pension contributions.
The index is derived from the relative wealth of the district, tacked onto a base index that measures average weekly wages from year to year. More state funds go to the needy districts, rather than districts with steep millage.
School districts that couldn't qualify for exceptions had a choice to make: Re-work their budgets in time for the June 30 final budget deadline, or submit a referendum by April 1 for the May primary ballots and ask taxpayers to shell out a little more – or, in some cases, a lot more.
According to the Cambria County Elections Office, no referendums were submitted for consideration in the May 21 election. More likely than not, according to Tim Eller, spokesman for the State Department of Education, schools will be revisiting their budgets. No one likes tax increases, and ballot referendums are, historically, largely failures, Eller said.
Northern Cambria School District had the largest overage in the area, at a rounded 10.8 mills.
Only about 2 of those mills were excepted for $103,388 worth of pension obligations. Representatives from the district's business office said, however, the results of the report were moot: The Northern Cambria school board voted at a March 19 meeting that taxes would not increase.
The second-largest overage is at United School District, with 9.2 mills, 7.4 of which were excepted for retirement contributions and special education costs.
Those special education costs are up from the last school year, according to school administrators. Adding to those numbers is construction debt for the elementary school that came in just shy of the moratorium on state PlanCon reimbursement, meaning money they expected to have vanished, and with poor timing.
Although no final decision has been made on behalf of the school board, members currently are reviewing cost-cutting options that could keep tax rates from going up.
On the other side of the coin, Special Session Act 1 of 2006 will be bringing hundreds of thousands in property tax reductions in many local school districts for the 2013-2014 fiscal year – a total of about $611 million across the state.
In the Northern Cambria School District specifically, each of the 2,371 approved homesteads and farmsteads will be getting roughly $132 knocked off their rates. In United, that number is an estimated $189 for the 2,357 approved households.

Last spring, I gave a presentation to a sociology class at Notre Dame de Namur University. After class, a student asked if she could shadow me.
Shadow me? I tried to explain that my average week consists of writing, meetings with my staff and co-workers, phone calls, and, at that time of the year, budgeting. Still, she wanted to shadow. In the end, we couldn't sync our schedules so it never happened.
Well, this past week, I could have out-shadowed (over-shadowed?) anyone.
On Monday, I walked into 13 pelicans – literally. I stood in a small room housing 13 pelicans, and it was like walking back in time; the prehistoric-looking, giant birds teetered around me, but never seemed interested. In my quest for uncovering our stories to share with the community, I was learning all I could from our Wildlife Care Center staff about our new visitors.
We actually in a two-week period - emaciated, hypothermic birds in need of urgent care. Those who study the big birds more closely believe the year-old fledgling Pelicans have been having trouble finding food.
Every year, a high percentage of the fledglings don't make it, but this year has been off-the-charts.
So, we did what we do best in our trauma center for local wildlife at our new Center for Compassion. Staff provided space heaters, cage dryers and heat lamps to keep the birds warm, and gave them tube feedings and IV fluids. And, we went through many, many towels and blankets. If you want to experience a stinky mess, put 13 pelicans in a small room after they've been well-fed and crank the heat to about 80.
By the week's end, our pelicans were the media darlings. They were getting bigger, stronger and eating on their own. Blood work confirmed their outward positive signs. Still, they remained every bit as stinky. We were so ready to sing Born Free and say goodbye. That will have to wait a few more days, though.
If I could deal only with pelicans, life would be easy. But, on Tuesday, the media called and wanted our reaction to a situation in Menlo Park in which a police officer shot a charging, stray pit bull.
When asked, I explained our officers would have had a different outcome; they don't carry firearms and are rarely injured when pursuing stray dogs. I added that the police officer must have felt this was his or her only response; that they don't won't to harm animals any more than we do.
Animal advocates and police haters who were sure the dog did nothing wrong and that the police were itching to fire away called to say I was too easy on them in the media. I also heard from the other camp who argued we should have come down on the "clueless" owner with no sense of responsibility.
In addition to my media role, I oversee the operational areas for which we are best known - adoptions and field services. And, I fully supported our field staff who decided not to issue this citation. It didn't feel right issuing the equivalent of a fix-it ticket to an owner whose dog was just shot in the face and rushed to the family vet for surgery.
There will be a time, soon, when we work with this dog owner. There are several ways to encourage compliance with things like the leash law, license requirements and our spay/neuter ordinance. Our approach will do far more to ensure public safety - and curb the dog's desire to roam - than a fix-it ticket.
On Wednesday, I received more calls the minute our community learned of . Seems he got tired of the dog going on his property.
"He should be strung up -- and not by his ears," said one 81-year-old caller. NBC-Bay Area visited for a short interview about pet rage.
I gave a few sound bites about what neighbors can do when the dog next door and his or her owner are causing problems.
Fortunately, Friday ended with me making new friends. Young friends.
We hosted an art exhibit at our Center for Compassion for students, ages 7-12, in the Art Attack summer program. The animal-related works will remain on display for two weeks.
Come visit, if the wind is blowing just right - no, forget that. You won't experience the pelicans.
It's so nice that we have a center where we can host an event like this while pelicans and other wildlife can receive uncompromised, incredible care in state-of-the-art facilities and dogs and cats can meet their new families in a bright, cheery setting.

The hardware is as good as ever and the software library is now comprehensive, but when you can pick up a Slim for less than this new model, it's hard to recommend it just for a few styling changes.
We like
- The performance of the Superslim is as good as any PS3 model and there's a mass of games to now choose from
- Smaller size means you'll have more space in your TV cabinet
- Large 500GB harddrive is perfect for the mass of games, movies and music that you'll want to store.
We dislike
- Top loading tray is flimsy and feels clunky to use
- It's more expensive than the Slim, yet feels like you're getting less value for money.
See PSU's review on Metacritic & GameRankings
The new PlayStation 3 Superslim sports a retro look. The matte black finish on the grooved panel running across the top of the console reminds us of the Atari 2600, while the top loading disc drive brings back memories of playing Sonic CD on the redesigned Sega CD in the early 90s. Weighing just 4.6lb (2.1kg), the Super Slim is three pounds lighter than the PS3 Slim and is approximately 20 percent smaller and thinner than pre...

A Patchogue man was arrested Monday for using an in-station credit card for over $26,000 in fraudulent expenses, says Suffolk County Police.
Connect with Patchogue Patch: Daily Newsletters | Facebook | Twitter | Blog
Mehmet Yaylacicegi, 55, was reportedly found to be using a card that belonged to the Regency Forest Pet Memorial Park in Middle Island over 330 times during a two-year period for purchases at the BP Gas station, also in Middle Island, where he works.
Yaylacicegi was charged with grand larceny in the third degree and five counts of identity theft in the third degree.
Police said that the memorial park became aware of the theft during an internal audit. Detectives are asking any businesses with similar in-station credit card accounts to check for discrepancies, which should be reported to the Identity Theft Unit at 631-852-6821.

Claremore Daily Progress
September 18, 2012
Letter - District 2 residents are getting exactly what they asked for
Staff Reports
Claremore Progress
Dear Editor:
A few years ago, Robin Anderson was paid to attend classes for which she had no requirement to attend. Just to further her education at our expense. If your facts are correct, District 2 Commisioner Helm now has:
1. Paid for a FEMA project twice, (perhaps not even the project the funds were intended for)
2. Is dumping dirt and asphalt debriis into the Verdigris River high water shed area in the name of road stabilization, against DEQ rules, probably at a considerable future expense.
3. Solicited funds, with his assistant's help (and remember she answers directly to him) via public emails and who knows what else, for vendors to give money to help pay for county partys and party expenditures at those festivities, and who knows what else.
As if this is not bad enough, now our District Attorney and the Assistant District Attorney want to debate the meaning of "to use" in a Progress question to them about these allegations, rather than focus on the facts and perhaps an investigation.
Kind of reminds me of a president not to long ago when faced with the Monica Lewinski scandal wanted to debate the meaning of the word "is".
Now that I think about it, the DA isn't to help on investigating the abuses at the Veterans Center either. I guess it's better to let the guilty parties retire with pay, after all.
When are the District 2 residents going to wake up. Someone said to me this weekend "They are getting exactly what they asked (voted) for."
Bernard Peterson

Tuscarawas News Detail
Mayhem Poets to PerformPosted Sep. 28, 2012
The internationally known Mayhem Poets will perform at Kent State University at Tuscarawas on Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. in Founders Hall Auditorium. Sponsored by the Kent State Tuscarawas Artist/Lecture Series, admission is free and open to the public. The auditorium doors open at 6:30 p.m., with seating available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The New York Times has described Mayhem Poets "an amazing ride …The Simpsons meet Malcolm X at a Notorious B.I.G. concert." These theatre trained, comedically gifted, lyrical virtuosos, seamlessly blend raw elements of hip hop, theatre, improv and stand-up comedy to tell gut wrenching truths that leave audiences forever changed.
The Mayhem Poets' unique approach to the spoken word has landed them feature spots on the Today Show and Eyewitness News after winning first place and a grant for one hundred thousand dollars in the Microsoft Idea Wins Challenge in 2006. Since then, they have been touring internationally, collaborating with hip hop legend KRS ONE and world-class musicians such as Greg Patillo (beat box flute) and Jane Hunt (violin). Their CD, Reverse Birth was hailed as one of the Top Spoken Word CD's of 2007 by about.com's poetry section. Their New York City-based educational training operation, Slam Chops is providing opportunities for aspiring poets of all ages.
The Mayhem mission originated at Rugers University in 2000 when Kyle Sutton and Scott Tarazevits started an open-mic on campus called Verbal Mayhem. Their idea was to find a way to access people from all walks of life with spoken word. As a result, they reached out to fraternities, churches and hip hop poetry fans alike to attract the most diverse poetry open-mic scene in the world. The spirit of Verbal Mayhem convinced the two young performers to craft a show and go on a mission to change people's lives and reshape society's view of poetry.
Kent State University at Tuscarawas is located at 330 University DR NE in New Philadelphia.

By Leeann Akers - Editor
July 24, 2013 — Grayson City Council and the City Planning and Zoning Commission met last Tuesday night to discuss the upcoming alcohol sales ordinance.
Discussed were regulatory fees, times allowed for the sale of alcohol, administration, and areas allowed for the businesses.
City Attorney Reid Glass presented a rough draft of the proposed ordinance and Council decided which changes were needed. The first reading of the ordinance has been set for Thursday, July 25 at 6 p.m.
Council set the regulatory fee or "tax" on alcoholic beverage sales at four percent by the drink and six percent for packaged sales.
That revenue will be used for regulation of sales and the increased city services that will be needed.
"It is basically a shell game," said Council member Duane Suttles. "The money will go into the general fund but you can't just spend it anywhere. We will have to disperse it to cover the costs of additional police and fire protection, the ABC administrator, and whatever else we need."
Left in question was a section of the ordinance that has never been addressed by any city. New regulations went into effect on June 21 and their implication is still uncertain.
According to KRS 243.075, subsection 2, the Council could impose a regulatory fee on the gross sales of an establishment selling alcohol by the drink, in addition to the four percent fee discussed in the first subsection of the statute.
For rough draft purposes, Glass set the fee at two percent of the gross receipts.
"I just don't see how it's fair to a restaurant that may want to open here to take this fee," Mignon Colley told the Council. "It seems like it would be a deterrent for new places to eat which is one of the main reasons this vote was taken."
Glass said he would contact state ABC for clarification of the statute before compiling the ordinance for its first reading, which is scheduled June 25 at 6 p.m.
The group has until Aug. 12 to put the plan in place and will need two readings of the ordinance and have it published before the deadline.
Also discussed were the days and times when alcohol sales will be allowed.
Council decided that packaged liquor sales would be allowed Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. to midnight.
Alcohol by the drink will be available from 11 a.m. to midnight Monday through Saturday and starting at 1 p.m. on Sunday.
Council wanted to allow sales on Sunday until midnight. However, Glass was unsure of the state regulations and will clarify before the first reading of the ordinance.
Also discussed was the position of city alcoholic beverage control administrator that must be in place before sales may commence.
State law says that the ABC duties could be assigned to a current city employee by the Council or Council could allow Mayor George Steele to appoint someone to the position.
"You can't just tell someone they now have to do two jobs," said Council member Jack Harper. "Then they aren't going to be able to do a good job at either."
Council member Pearl Crum said Code Enforcement officer John Lands should be assigned the duties but Harper and Council member Terry Stamper argued that a new, full-time administrator should be appointed by the mayor.
It is unclear if Mayor George Steele will need to advertise for the position and accept applications before making the appointment. He said he would like to have Council's input on the matter.
The planning and zoning commission also discussed some of their ideas on regulation, most of which are already included in state statute.
Main points of interest included the exclusion of any alcohol sales within a residential zone and in the Main Street Renaissance Designated Area.
The Renaissance area has not been officially designated by ordinance. Once that is done, no packaged sales would be allowed in that part of the city.
The group also plans to address the current sign ordinance in order to limit the advertisement of alcoholic beverages.
The Planning and Zoning Committee plans to hold a public forum on the issue Aug. 5 at 7 p.m.
The Kentucky Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) is responsible for regulating legal sales of alcoholic beverages. Its website is abc.ky.gov.
When the city's ordinances are near completion, state ABC will place an advertisement in the Journal-Times to advise the public that applications can now be filed and of the available number of quota licenses for retail package liquor stores and liquor by-the-drink licenses.
Such licenses are based on the city's population. Other licenses to sell beer and wine are not tied to population.
Locations of proposed licenses must be inspected and applicants are subject to background checks.

Walters: Blyleven Enjoying WBC
I'll admit it: I was rooting for the Netherlands in the last WBC.
I did not know this little tidbit about the WBC:
The World Baseball Classic has pitch count limits.
"So I've got to make sure these guys make something happen early in an at-bat rather than pulling 20 to 25 pitches in one inning," Blyleven said. "You have to abide by the pitch count. If I have a reliever throw over 30 pitches, he needs to rest 24 hours.
"So in Game 1, I've got to make sure I keep my relievers under 30 pitches so I can use them the next day. There's some strategy to it."

Two Class times - Starting Saturday 11/10 or Friday 11/16
The Life and Ministry of Paul
Join us on a journey into the life and heart
of Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles, who served
faithfully and loved heartily.
We will discover him
to be a man who formed many close friendships with
both men and women—more than any other person,
Paul provides us an example of sold-out servant hood.
He understood what it means to die daily, crucified with
Jesus Christ. As a result, Paul shows us how to live fully
as a bond servant to Christ.
As you study the Book of Acts and the Letters of Paul, you will come to know the
characters personally. Most of all you will feel the challenge to follow Paul's example
just as he followed the example of Christ.
