Seth Morrison's Ripley Creek Blog
This is the first time we have come to Ripley Creek, based out of Stewart, BC Canada. Over the years I have flown over this area on the spring pilgrimage to Alaska. On those flights from Seattle to AK all you see is snow covered peaks the whole way. Stewart is a quiet mining town that is situated near the end of the most southern tip of the Alaskan pan handle. We are here filming with Teton Gravity Research, flying with Last Frontier Heli. Our ski crew consists of Kye Petersen, Sammy Carlson, and Callum Pettit. It's refreshing to be here, new terrain to play in, another part of the Coast Mountains.
The hardest part has been where and when to film. Being here so early in the season relative to the suns position in the sky limits us to more alpine filming in the morning and late afternoon skiing. Spending our time on Northeast (morning)to Northwest(afternoon) and taking a lunch break to let the sun move and light up the shadowed peaks. We have found many zones in lower elevation ridge lines, protected snow with spine/pillow walls. Since the sun is so low in the sky these sections never see the light of day till April so "unfilmable". Snow on the alpine runs changes from windblown ridge lines to creamy midsections, then wind skinned lowers. There are many glaciers pouring through out the range, so views are endless. The crew of skiers is great. We all have the same eye for lines and terrain.
Currently we are in a small storm system, hoping for a bit of a snow refresh. Our 3 days out so far have helped us recon the terrain, a big part of being somewhere new. The crew is poised for the next break in the weather. We have a nice zone picked out to ski for the rest of our trip here. New snow has fallen and should be adding up over the next few days. In the mean time we will catch up, get Hyderized, go curling and watch the Olympics. Anybody want to do my laundry?

I purchased two of these rugs for my home. They were delivered right away. The colors are much more vibrant than the picture, The blue is a brighter slate blue and the rust color is more brighter then the picture. I love the quality of these rugs, they are thick and well made. It took me a minute or two to get used to the color as I thought they looked more antique in the picture and softer in color, however, after I started to get used to that, I love them, in fact, went back on line and ordered the small one for in front of the front door. The price, delivery time and quality of these rugs is wonderful. However, if you have furniture that has flowers or a print, these rugs are brighter then pictured so keep that in mind. Otherwise, they are just great.!
Rug a good fir for my room which was teal, silver, and dark wood floors. Happy with this purchase.
Thick pile carpet that feels good for the feet. We had this carper for a few weeks now. The carpet was initially shedding a decent amount of wool and seems to be getting better now. We like the carpet for its overall value.
I'm quite happy with the rug the colors are deeper than I thought but it blends in well with the room. put a pad under the rug but don't really think I needed to, because the rug is heavy and doesn't move at all. i will be buying another one of these rugs if i can find it in a 7x7 rug size.
I ordered this rug for my living room and am very pleased with it. The pile is the 1/2 inch depth described, so it feels cushy and luxurious. It's even better on the Superior Hard Surface Rug Pad, which adds more cushioning underneath and keeps it firmly in place on the floor. I'm still waiting for one end to uncurl completely where it was the most tightly rolled in the center, but we're weighting it down to speed the process. The color shown on the computer is a good representation, but to me, the brown colors come out a little darker and stronger in person. The blue coordinates well with my aqua/ light teal blue furniture, with its greenish tone. It is a wool rug, and according to the tag is handmade in India.
Purchased this rug based on reviews... The color is more muted than I expected but this is not a criticism... just not as bright as I anticipated. Very good quality for the price. Experienced little shedding thus far... heavy enough to lie flat and no curling on the ends. Also purchased the runner for adjoining hall.although it has not arrived. Very happy with purchase and recommend.
Beautiful colors and design that blend well with contemporary decoration. Great choice for a great price!
the rug is perfect for the room. the style, quality, color are all lovely. The colors are darker than they appear on teh website, but actaully works exactly as i wanted.
After initial mixup of recieving wrong style rug, Overstock.com made return easy along with a *** towards next purchase. Selected a rug that we found that was salepriced & even a better fit in our dining room. Colors are true to picture & work well with a room that gets little natural light. Some very minor shedding at first but close to a month later, there is nothing that we would find fault with. We purchased the "supreme pad" which gives the rug an even more pricier feel. The rug, while looking elegant, never overwhelms the room. This was our first experience with Overstock.com and we could not be more pleased.
This rug was perfect for my bath vanity area. The blue background color was great & coordinated well with my robin's egg blue accents. The pile was full & soft to the touch. A quality product for a great price.

I totally agree, and would happily wear all that every day, but I think when people post stuff up in here we expect it to be a bit more interesting, boring is safe, but here we want to see exciting things, well, I do at least. Can't bash anything in particular in his fit, it's just not interesting.

I found myself going back to a neat interview on CNN recently.
Irving Kahn, who began investing in 1928, is still at it, 85 years later, at the age of 107.
My initial thoughts after viewing were: 1) If I am still going in to work 50 years from now my wife will kill me and; 2) Good for him.
His longevity is remarkable.
The Founder and Chairman of Kahn Brothers for over 30 years, Mr. Kahn describes himself as a value investor, holding 20 or so stocks for clients over the (in his case really)long haul. In his office a Bloomberg terminal gathers dust. He owns a cell phone, "So I don't forget my number." I am sure he has outlived most of his clients, and many of their children. Two of his own children who worked for him are retired.
One of Mr. Kahn's sons says what Dad values most is "an office, a job and responsibilities."
I found that compelling. It's clear that much of Mr. Kahn's identity is tied to his career, but it is his deal now. As a middle aged father I look forward to the day that work is purely on my terms and that I go in because I want to, not because I have to.
I am also struck by what the video doesn't explicitly show. For example, besides the clients he has helped reach their dreams, I can't imagine how many people he has mentored in the business.
We all want to have a voice and a life with meaning, both personally and professionally. I love my career for two reasons: 1) No two days are ever the same, with each day an opportunity to learn and meet new people; 2) Everything that goes on in our world relates in some way to the financial markets, from the toys my children use to the cars my neighbors buy.
Everyone has a story. Our business is about collecting stories in the hopes of being able to connect with clients and say, "I have been there, here's how I can help."
Guys like Irving Kahn have two lifetimes of stories. I would love to hear more.
And hopefully I am around to tell more.
Thanks for reading and I would enjoy hearing from you either in the comment section or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Strongsville police officers will get the same pay raises -- 7 percent over three years -- as the city's other employees, under a newly reached contract deal.
The agreement, approved by City Council Monday night, calls for police officers to receive a 3 percent raise this year, followed by 2 percent hikes in 2014 and 2015.
It's the same 7 percent over three years that employees in two other bargaining groups -- the Service Department workers and building inspectors -- already reached, but the police, like the firefighters, will be taking the raises in slightly different increments.
The two other groups, represented by the Teamsters, are receiving increases of 2.25 percent this year, 2.5 percent next year and 2.25 the following year.
Human Resources Director Steve Kilo said the police officers wanted the larger increase this year because contributions to their state retirement plan will increase this July.
"This helps them offset that a little bit," Kilo said.
City Council on Monday approved contracts with the Fraternal Order of Police, which separately represents the patrol officers in one unit and sergeants and lieutenants in another.
However, talks with dispatchers are at a standstill because they are in the midst of switching their representation from the Ohio Patrolmen's Benevolent Association to the Fraternal Order of Police.
Negotiations can't start until the transfer is finalized, Kilo said.
In addition, he said the jail's corrections officers are in the process of unionizing, so talks will start after that is done.
As is customary, council awarded the same pay increase this year to non-union city employees -- other than themselves -- when approving the deals with the Teamsters Jan. 7.
Council members removed raises for themselves from the legislation just before voting on it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Azra Relaxed and luxurious Hotel staff were wonderful and very attentive. Location was superb, with beautiful views. Room was super and the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. The food was varied, interesting and excellent. February 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dillers Exceeds expectations From the moment we arrived at the front door to the moment that we left the staff and the hotel exceeded all of our expectations. We arrived ahead of the check in time and the hotel provided us with a temporary room for 30mins as we have a toddler and he needed to be changed and fed......brilliant service. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating and the club room services were excellent. March 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ranu7 Service with a smile Excellent facilities and very comfortable rooms. Our small family had never managed to make a hotel work for us in the past, preferring villas, but this place changed our minds. It was very child friendly and the rooms are so big that we felt we were staying in an apartment. The staff were helpful and friendly and the food was very good too. If we ever return to Dubai we'll definitely stay again. January 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rozzie lovely place to be after a shaky start arriving at 3am to a room with two single beds and not what we were expecting we were moved the following day to a room in the tower which was fabulous. The staff are fantastic, especially Simone in reception, but all are very friendly and helpful. We had one of the best meals we have had anywhere in the Gary Rhodes restaurant 20-10 where the food and service were impeccable. January 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JJones Le Royal Meridien surpases all expectations again! All I can say is that this hotel is fantastic. The layout, the service, the rooms are all exceptional. We upgraded to a Suite in the Tower and it was worth every penny. It is our second stay here and it has gone up even further in my view and cannot recommend highly enough the quality of a 5 star resort with the boutique feel with the staff knowing what you need before you even know! November 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Freya123 HEAVEN ON EARTH As usual our stay was fantastic. All the new improvments made up till now are great can't wait to see the finnished job. It was my wife's birthday while we visited and she would like to thank everyone who made it so special by giving her a cake, roses, champagne and a well appreciated gift. A big thank you to all members of staff who always make us fell like every visit is like returning home. February 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Borisboots So relaxing We expected a great holiday in Dubai however Le Royal Meridien made our holiday amazing. The hotel and its staff are 'top draw'. The hotel's facilities , restaurants and cleanliness are a credit to the hotel. We went out of the hotel once as we felt we should see more of Dubai however after 3 hours we could not wait to get back to the relaxing atmosphere . Cannot wait until our next stay. May 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Hammers1 This Hotel has everything for a Coastal holiday Not only is the Hotel and its facilities exellant its location is ideal. You can walk or be taken by buggy through the lovely gardens to the Beach which is ideal. At all times whether you are by the Pools, in the Garden or on the Beach you will always receive the best service for food and drink as the staff are good and attentive.We certainly will be returning next year for a longer stay. March 6, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dick Excellent hotel First class hotel. The only issue that I had was the room not being ready when promised even after confirming arrival time twice prior to arrival once a few days prior in person by my daughter. Then we were told one a d a half hours that then went to two and a half and it ease t until I got annoyed thAt suddenly the room became available. A real pity because everything else was top draw. June 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Trix Fabulous Hotel This hotel was more fab than we remembered. We were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and they could not have done more. Flowers and special table at th Rhodes twenty 10 restaurant and then champagne & chocolates in our room before we left. Lovely, knowledgable and friendly staff. Thoroughly recommended as a base or relaxing holiday. Will definitely return and hopefully soon. September 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Vickster67 Excellent Dubai Holiday Simply fab hotel : location beach front, facilities, decor, staff, amenities, service food and drink. Good selection of bars and eateries in the hotel.Sister hotel's Buddha bar a must do. Only two minor negatives 20- 30 min car journey from the city centre - although taxi's very cheap and prices within the the hotel for beverages very expensive ( but so is the rest of touristy Dubai !) July 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by docjk great break spent a fantastically relaxing time in the hotel.destined to return & would highly recommend to anyone. the staff were brilliant-- obliging, friendly, nothing was too much trouble February 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by aj22dms Flying visit March 2013 My partner and I have just returned from a very short visit at Le Royal Meridian in Dubai and i can't speak highly off all the staff at the hotel and wanted to say how much we enjoyed our stay. Our early check in was accomodated immediately and we even recieved a room upgrade - we will 100% be returning to this wonderful hotel for a longer stay hopefully in the not too distant future! March 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ben61 Everything is perfekt One of the best hotels I have been to. Perfekt location on beach with complementary chairs and towels, nice pools and restaurants. Rooms and lobby clean and attractive. Very friendly and helpful staff. Perfect hotel for relaxation. February 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by dougal54 Excellence all the way This was the first time i had stayed in Dubai and did not know what to expect. The hotel was brilliant, the staff are a credit to the company. Nothing was to much trouble for them. The pool was very clean and the surrounding garden area well kept. If you wanted to go to the beach there on hand was the customer dune buggy waiting for you. I cannot fault my stay and would go again. June 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bev1961 Fantastic Stayed here for 5 nights and had a fantastic time. I have stayed in many 5* hotels and this was the best. I could not fault a thing. We stayed in the Tower rooms with use of the Royal Club Lounge service and hospitality surpassed all expectations. Lovely hotel, friendly and helpful staff who could not do enough for you. Pools, gardens and beach beautiful. Will definitely return. April 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by tatayoyolyon great place there are of course plenty of great hotels in Dubaï, but this one has the best surroundings, huge garden, many pools, big private beach and lots of deckchairs and beach umbrellas, so you never have to wake up early to get one. Due to the size of the garden you don't feel you're in a crowd, there's always the possibility to be in a quiet place and this is great, we'll be back April 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Passiondesvoyages Wonderful stay at Royal Meridien Dubai After a one week stay with a friend from Sweden, we can highly recommend the hotel for the following reasons : - courteousness and kindness of staff, - most valuable club benefits with transfers from and to airport and specially with an excellent buffet during almost all the day, - perfect room in the Royal Club Tower with a wonderful view over the propoerty, the Palm, and the beach (12th floor), - a lot of different places to relax outside in the very nice and clean gardens and beach, - no noise at all in spite of the proximity of high buildings nearby, We spent a lot of time swimming in the sea as it was not our first time in Dubai but we also enjoyed some visits outside the hotel and outside Dubai (Abu Dhabi with a driver from the hotel). We would be happy to stay again at Royal Meridien Dubai and thank all staff for the excellent quality of service provided before (Starwood reservation) and during our stay. May 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by marko177 Simply The Best Of All Worlds Location, Service, Food. Everything that is good in a holiday.With its own gardens and beach you are sheilded from the city and the hectic city life. However, to step outside after dark and stroll down the nearby "Walk" or order a taxi and dip your toe into the local nightlife means you can have the Best of All Worlds. Would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone. June 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jimbo1 Best Resort Hotel in Dubai We have just returned from 30 days at this wonderful Hotel. The reception staff are so helpful and nothing is too much trouble. The staff cannot do enough for you and treat you as friends, with a warm welcome every day. All the retaurant staff treat you with courtsey and make your stay that more enjoyable. The huge grounds, with 3 pools are well tended by the gardeners August 25, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Happycouple48 Excellent hotel. This is the best hotel in Dubai,great for families or couples.The standard of service never fails,and the hotel is immaculate. The choice of food at the brasserie is great. This was our fourth stay here, We hope to be back again in the near future.Many thanks to all the very helpfull and courteous staff. If you are looking to visit Dubai you won't find a better hotel. August 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Okar Hospitality was excellent I could not find anything to criticize. Thanks to everybody. I hope I will go to Royal Meridien next year again if the construction near the hotel will not begin. February 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Engima Luxury at its best The hotel was fantastic with excellent customer service. The staff were attentive to all our needs and nothing was to much trouble for them. A good selection of restaurants providing a range of international cuisines. The pools were cleaning and the catering service at the pools was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel and will definitely return. June 14, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Kevla To much building work We were told we had been upgraded and we had not. We were told we had good views and we overlooked a building site. We were not advised of what was included in our package so we missed out on what was included in our package i,e transfers from the airport etc. The tower was being refurbished directly above our suite so the room was not habitable during the day.

What can I say? words simply cannot describe the feeling of staying Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort & Spa Hotel everything was so good, the service was excellent which included the beach area, Food very appetizing with breakfast freshly made depending on your choice. Overall everyone did their very best to cater for us to enjoy our holiday and we did. October 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Helle The Most courteous staff This was my first visit to your hotel and both my husband and I were totally impressed with the efficiency and courteousness of your staff. Nothing was too much trouble. This included the staff who worked outside on the beach providing towels to serving drinks. We will definitely be staying again. Thank you for making our visit truly special. Mrs. H. Bond February 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kermit2013 Fantastic experience I have stayed at this hotel about 7 times and it is still my favourite hotel in Dubai. It is nice because it has more of a personal touch and the staff remember us from previous years. There is nothing I can fault, other than I wish that the Christmas decorations go up a little earlier so I can see them before I leave! December 18, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Johnkm12 Great expectations, a little pricey Love the hotel, the quality of service, the location and the facilities. Getting rather expensive here (and in Dubai more generally). The hotel was very quite, probably due to the new "Beach Walk" area attracting hotel guests in the evening. Meridien need to do more to attract guests & non-residents back to the hotels excellent facilities and location. December 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Snatchpiece Tower Suite with SV was wonderful Tower Suite which we had was of a very high standard - wish we could have been put in one with a full SV and perhaps not overlooking the building site next door - but having said this it didn't ruin our stay. Fusion restaurant and the european restaurant (can't remember the name) was fantastic -staff looked after us well!! thanks for a wonderful stay. May 10, 2012

Art Lecoq will not only be missed by his family and friends, but by everyone involved in senior golf events at Babe Zaharias. Lecoq, who passed away last week at age 74, was the chairman of the Senior Golf Association at The Babe, and worked tirelessly to promote and publicize senior events. I'll always remember Art for his efforts in the two fund-raising tournaments for Belle Oaks pro Bryan Jackson. The golf scene in Southeast Texas won't be the same without him . . . Port Neches-Groves junior Tyler Rawson made his round at Babe Zaharias extra special last Tuesday when he holed his second shot on the par 5, 9th hole for a double eagle. Rawson used a 3 hybrid to become the four golfer in 2012 to have a double eagle reported to Area Notepad. The shot was witnessed by two other members of the PN-G golf team — Braden Bailey and Jacob Lefort . . . Congratulations are once again in order for former Lamar University ex Shawn Stefani, after the Barbers Hill ex won for the second time on the Web.com Tour. Stefani's latest victory came by five shots in the Miccouskee Championship in Miami, and was sparked by a remarkable 62 on Saturday in near gale-force winds. Shawn's at No. 4 in the Web.com money list ($303,311) and has locked up his PGA Tour card for next season. Don't be surprised if he does really well . . . Braden Bailey fired an even par 72 to nudge teammate Jarrod Brown by one stroke at Belle Oaks Saturday to win Boys 16-18 in the opening event of the Southeast Texas Junior Tour/The First Tee of the Golden Triangle Fall Finnish. Thomas Willis was third with a 74. Karlei Hemler shot 76 to wins girls 16-18 by seven strokes over Shelbi Vincent. Other winners were Bryce Shaver (80 in Boys 14-15), Ashley Young (100 in Girls 13-15), Josh Elmore (92 in Boys 12-13), Jack Burke (42 in Boys 9-11, 9 holes) and Makenna Henry (57 in Girls 12&Under, 9 holes). Next tournament is Nov. 17 at Wildwood . . . Paced by best ever round of 69 from Brentwood Country Club's Bob Nicks, the blind-draw foursome of Nicks, Al Merryman, Monroe Scurlock and Lester Landgraf finished plus 14 at Babe Zaharias Tuesday to win the Southeast Texas Senior Pro-Am. Nicks' 69 (31-38) was witnessed by Elvis Arterbury and Steve Hyden. Placing second at plus 12 was the team of Joe Kazmar, Arterbury, Lee Langston and Jim Abby . . . The Echo team of Lee Comeaux, David Carrier, Ben Sherrod and Richard Lordan shot a 53 to win the morning scramble in The First Tee of The Golden Triangle Tournament of Champions Fundraiser at Beaumont Country Club. In the afternoon portion of the event, the Repcon team of Chris Forster, Pat Debusk, Andrew Debusk and Derek Delach won with a 52. Morning flight closest to the pin winners were Bob West (No. 2), Blake Day (No. 4), Gerald Papilion (No. 10) and John Moreno (No. 17). Felicia Sauceda won the long drive on No. 18. In the afternoon, John Locke (No. 2), Brad Rutledge (No. 4), Kane Benoit (No. 10) and Forster (No. 17) claimed closest to the pin prize. Drew Barnett had the long drive on No. 18 . . .

Closest to the pin winners were L.J. Hardy (No. 2), Larry Rogers (No. 7), Bob Moore (No. 12) and Stedman Tahaney (No. 15) . . . The Babe Zaharias DogFight used two formats — best ball on the front, scramble on the back. David Evans-Rick Pritchett shot 67 to nip Kenneth Belaire-Darrell Dugas (68) in First Flight. Bill Hanley-Roger Koch shot 69 to win Second Flight by four strokes over Bryan Grant-Jim Cooper and Jeff Reinhart-Adam Noel. Clay Lewis-R.Christman shot 68 for a six-stroke victory over Don Duplan-M. Nasser in Third Flight. Fourth Flight featured a tie at 78 between Gary Anderson-Joe Irvine and Gary Anderson-Malcolm Tiller. Closest to the pin winners were Cody Metts (No. 2), Dugas (No. 7), Pritchett (No. 12) and Noel (No. 15) . . . Twyman Ash finished plus 6 to win the Monday Seniors at Belle Oaks. Barry Jackson and Mike Hebert tied for second at plus 3. Hebert (No. 8) and Jackson (No. 15) were closest to the pin winners . . . In the Monday Seniors at Belle Oaks, Ed Boone won with plus 4.

Once upon a time, there was a studio in Burbank that spun classic fairy tales into silver-screen gold.
But now the curtain is falling on "princess movies," which have been a part of Disney Animation's heritage since the 1937 debut of its first feature film, "Snow White." The studio's Wednesday release of "Tangled," a contemporary retelling of the Rapunzel story, will be the last fairy tale produced by Disney's animation group for the foreseeable future.

An attorney representing the Brownsville Independent School District in a lawsuit against the state has uncovered a string of racist emails between leading state officials, and officials at the Texas Department of Insurance say they are investigating the complainant.
Every now and then history lets someone really important fall through the cracks. At one time San Antonio had a major mover in popular music. Writer and historian Joe Nick Patoski says Doug Sahm is a great example.
"He was a child prodigy, he was playing on KMAC radio at the age of six in San Antonio. He appeared on the Louisiana Hayride, he recorded for Sarge Records in the early fifties."
Sahm was known for the 1960s group Sir Douglas Quintet, and later, of the Texas Tornados. Sahm's a whole lot bigger a deal than San Antonio realizes.
Today is Poinsettia Day, officially declared so by an Act of Congress in 2002. The popular Christmas plant is estimated to pump $250 million into the U.S. economy each year.
In the first segment:
As immigration reform languishes in the House of Representatives, we take a look at immigrant entrepreneurs in America, a group that has historically acted as a catalyst for growth in the U.S. economy.
It's one of San Antonio's oddest, and really, most interesting holiday traditions--as many as twenty saxophonists on stage at the Guadalupe Theater, blowing away on a Christmas carol.
The number of saxophonists varies a bit from year to hear, but as to how many players will show up this year Holiday Saxophones founder and legendary local bassist George Prado says "Maybe twenty-five or more saxophonists, and they will play with a rhythm section."
A federal lawsuit against Texas' ban of same-sex marriage advanced a step this week as federal judge in San Antonio set a court date to hear why those same laws should be placed on hold while the case awaits a trial.
The U.S. Supreme Court is examining whether the Environmental Protection Agency overreached its authority with its regulations on cross-state pollution, but environmental groups in Texas say the EPA is simply operating within the confines of the Clean Air Act.
United States Supreme Court Justices heard oral arguments on Tuesday regarding a case that alleges the EPA overreached its authority by issuing regulations for pollution that drifts into states bordering one another.
Friday night one of the hottest tickets in town isn't in town, and the tickets are free. The place is Kerrville and the band to see is Camerata San Antonio, offering a free preview of the Dvorak Festival.
Kenneth Freudigman is a founding member and Artistic Director of Camerata, as well as a member of the San Antonio Symphony.
"We are partnering with the San Antonio Symphony to bring great music of Dvorak to the area. This gives us an opportunity to play this magnificent work…in Kerrville."
This Sunday, the San Antonio Choral Society performs a concert at Our Lady of Atonement Catholic Church that aims to tell "the true story of Santa Claus," according to the group's Artistic Director, Jennifer Seighman.
"It really begins with Nicolas," Seighman continues. "Some of the miracles associated with him, some of the legends, are what evolved into the story that we know of Santa Claus."
On Monday, the largest tech companies in the world, including Apple, Microsoft, and Facebook, began a campaign to influence lawmakers to curb the government's power to snoop. On their new website, they lay out five principles they would like to see in the reforms from transparency and oversight to codified limitations to compel service providers to provide user data.
Most people hope to be anonymous on the Internet, according to a recent Pew poll:

Preston M. Losack
The Port Arthur News
This letter is in response to the March 29 article titled, "Obama Strongly Defends U.S. Action In Libya."
At first glance, Obama's answers seem to be defensive and straight forward; however, his fallacious argumentation leaves America without clear answers.
First of all, as the ruler of Libya, Gadhafi has the right to quell revolutionaries. Though Gadhafi's agenda may not be aligned with ours, he still maintains his entitlement to establish order in Libya.
Even if Gadhafi achieves those means unjustly, he cannot be described as the only ruler on the planet that fits that description. Obama refuses "to wait for images of slaughter." So, what about the slaughter of North Koreans in concentration camps by Kim Jong-II? What about the treatment of women in Iran? What about the disappearance of Catholic bishops in China? Human rights are being violated world-wide. So why Libya?
The President also stated that "overthrowing Gadhafi by force" would hurt our coalition, putting our troops in greater danger. The idea of turning Gadhafi into a democratic flag waver is preposterous, so what exactly is our goal? Who is the enemy? What exactly are we fighting?
As expected, Obama took the liberty to point at the Bush administration's involvement in Iraq. While the President does not want the involvement in Libya to be drawn out as in Iraq, he left the question of duration completely open. We are not being dragged into an indefinite conflict, so when will it end?
With all the rhetoric from the White House about "values", "interests" and "responsibilities," some important, fundamental questions remain un-answered: Why only Libya? Who exactly are we fighting? When will we finish? We want down to earth, clear as day specifics. He promised a change from the mundane news of war. Well, where is it, Mr. President? America is waiting?

Louis van Amstel's weekly blog. Can he replace CA?
Louis Van Amstel's 'Dancing With the Stars' Season 14 Dish: Semi-Finals - ABC News
A snippet from his comments on Donald's waltz:Even though I appreciate Len's words tonight about this Jive lacking content yet him loving it anyway, in past weeks when people were entertaining but lacked content he would tear them part. That is not fair. I've never said this before but tonight all performances were "9s," in my opinion. Everyone did a good job tonight, but no "10s" for me tonight.
I just wish Bruno would be consistent in other weeks when it is the Jive against the Foxtrot or the Tango versus the Paso Doble! I like the fact the judges are being nice tonight but they are over-scoring. It wasn't a "10″ level dance. As diplomatic as I sound, so far I would have given every couple so far "9s," not a "10."In weeks where I feel couples deserve "10s," they get "8s" and "9s," but in weeks when the dances lack energy and the performances have mistakes the judges are too liberal with their "10s." Tonight, no one deserved a "10," but there were other weeks where couples deserved "10s" but didn't get them. Sometimes that's so frustrating for the viewers and the couples.

By Terry Wooten, Poet Bard
---- —
Max Ellison has cancelled
all speaking engagements.
The creator called his bluff"¦He had a pair of deuces
against a full house.
These were the last lines of poetry Max Ellison wrote. The blank was filled in May 2, 1985. The headline of The Detroit Free Press read, "Poet took His Art to the People." At the top of the front page of The Record- Eagle, Loraine Anderson wrote the story of her good friend's death, and his obituary. She called him The Rascal Poet.
Last week, March 21, Max would have turned 98 years old. It doesn't seem possible that he's been away 27 years.
The Rascal Poet had a serious side. He served two years with the Michigan Seventh Cavalry Division in the South Pacific, and was wounded twice. Stars and Stripes did a tribute to Ellison after his death. Two of his best poems are for his two nephews that were killed in Vietnam.
Max blazed a trail by taking his poetry and stories into schools. He also recited at Gov. Milliken's inauguration. Meeting Max in 1980 and hearing him recite his works by memory was an awakening for me. I've been memorizing poems and saying them in schools ever since.
Max Ellison is the Godfather of Stone Circle, and his poetry is spoken there often. Below are some rascal prose poems I wrote using Max's words during the last year of his life.
Happy birthday, Max! Thanks again.
Poet Bard Terry Wooten has been performing and conducting writing workshops in schools for 28 years. He is the creator of Stone Circle. Learn more about him at www.terry-wooten.com.

Motion logic and robotics controller has flexible profile
Rexroth MLC motion logic controller with Version 10 firmware is based on a powerful one-gigahertz PAC controls platform that provides high-performance motion logic and robotics capabilities.
The Rexroth MLC motion logic controller with Version 10 firmware is based on a powerful one-gigahertz PAC controls platform that provides high-performance motion logic and robotics capabilities.
The advanced platform supports real-time Ethernet communication on Ethernet platforms, including SERCOS III, EtherNet/IP and ProfiNet for interfacing with connecting controls, drives, I/Os, safety, HMI, web and machine-to-machine synchronization, which helps to lower the controls cost and simplify integration for OEMs, systems integrators and end users, the company says. The MLC motion control, Version 10, has Web-based Service & Engineering Tool for easy access using a web browser to access the system data. With configuration tools for maintenance and commissioning. The system status and diagnosis of control hardware, drives and communication interfaces can all be viewed. Also, available is the parameter editor, PLC variables, and electronic name plate data.
It uses IndraLogic 2nd Generation (2G) PLC editor that offers the following extensions and enhancements: Object orientated programming in project structure, new data types, new operators and variables. IndraLogic 2G supports standard IEC 61131-3 program languages such as: function block diagrams (FBD), ladder diagrams (LD), instruction lists (IL), sequential function chart (SFC), and structured text (ST). It offers a new visualization concept for testing and monitoring functions as well as additional features. It is suitable for the most sophisticated packaging and high-speed robotics applications. The processor can control up to 32 robotic kinematics concurrently and up to 64 axes of motion and logic on a single controller. The latest firmware also provides advanced Flex Profile camming capabilities to help reduce engineering time and provide automatic cycle time optimization of machines and packaging lines.
With Flex Profile, cams can be multi-segmented and cycle times can be automatically optimized for velocity, acceleration, position or time to avoid having to rebuild cams each time a parameter changes. Provides masters as an axis, as a specific time, or a combination of both. By changing values in the segments the profile can be easily modified to accommodate any changes in products. It can generate PLC function blocks for online creation of FlexProfiles, CAM preview with several axes simultaneously and provide definition of FlexProfile events.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

The show struck me as liner notes of your own musical history, because of the stories you were telling between performers.
My original idea was that we'd have a video presentation between each performer, which is what we're doing in Los Angeles, New York and around the world. The screen will come down, you'll have a clip from the movie, and then some of the interview with the next performer, and we'll play three or four of their songs. It's basically the movie, but it's live. We couldn't fit that production in the [Park City] club, so I was killing time in between songs by telling stories.
Will McCartney tour with you?
You just cross your fingers and hope that he can make it. A lot of times it's very last minute. I don't know if you've ever met him, but he's the greatest. He's the nicest person and loves to play and really understands who he is and what he represents to everybody, but in the best way. I've gotten to the point where I'm not afraid to say, "Hey Paul, you wanna jam?" Because I know that he usually does. He likes to fuckin' jam.
What did it feel like to be in that studio with him?
It was nuts. The funny thing about musicians from that generation is that they're pioneers. The reason why they changed the world is that they were doing something that no one else was doing, and they weren't scared to do it. So when you play with Roger Waters or John Paul Jones or Paul McCartney or Mick Jagger, they're not afraid to get weird. It's our generation that gets safe with music. A lot of people from my generation of music are so focused on playing things correctly or to perfection that they're stuck in that safe place. They're not willing to, like, fuckin' get rad. And Paul definitely is. That day was really funny, because honestly, Krist [Novoselic] and Pat [Smear] had never met Paul before and they were very nervous – they were terrified. The Beatles meant the same thing to all of us. I mean, without the Beatles we wouldn't be who we are. So when we started playing for the first two hours, maybe, we were so in awe of Paul that we forgot about Nirvana. It took a few hours before I realized, wait a minute . . . we haven't done this in maybe 20 years, Krist and Pat and I – wow, how cool. And fuckin' Paul is here, too.
Why don't people take risks like they used to?
That's a long conversation. Part of the intention of the Sound City movie is to show that music is something that's very human and there's no right or wrong. When you're watching the performances, you see these legends in a really vulnerable place. You see Paul McCartney asking advice from Butch Vig. You see Stevie Nicks saying, "No, no, stop, I fucked up." These are things that you might not imagine because you're used to the icon, and you're used to the album being so perfect or pristine. Modern production has made it so that music almost seems inhuman. And I think that it's not something to aspire to. Like, you should aspire to the opposite of that. How can I get more real? How can I get more fucked up? How can I get more emotion out of my voice? How can I get my voice to crack? How can the tempo speed up to bring some tension to the music? Rather than, how do I play perfectly on the beat or how do I sing perfectly in tune? Every musician should focus on the craft and really be as good as they can be, but the goal, I don't think, is perfection. So if you listen to a song like "Helter Skelter" and give it to the guy that produces Ke$ha records and say, "Hey, do you think this is a hit?" What the fuck do you think that guy would say? "Um, it's out of tune, it's out of time, the lyrics aren't catching me." I think the reason why that song is so amazing is because of how it makes you feel. It has a vibe, and it has a vibe because it's fuckin' people.
Are you not a Ke$ha fan?
I love Ke$ha. I think she's very sweet. I just don't think her producer would appreciate The White Album. Maybe he does, I don't know.
Video: Tom Petty, Trent Reznor Reminisce in Dave Grohl's 'Sound City' Doc
Some people have said that Sound City is a conversation at least partially about analog versus digital, but I took it to be more nuanced.
A lot of people are confused with the debate, because I don't really necessarily know if it's a debate. You're talking about the advantage of analog and the advantage of digital, and the disadvantage of analog and the disadvantage of digital. It's a double-edged sword, because you have technology, and it's availability to everyone. It's inspiring that any person, any kid, any musician, can now make an album in their living room and distribute it around the world with the click of a button. That's fucking amazing; can you imagine? But the downside of that is that these places that were, like, museums and churches and hallowed ground are closing doors, because they can't survive in a world of that accessibility. So it is what it is. I record digitally all the time, I do demos at home with the Pro Tools Unit. Some of the songs on [Foo Fighters'] Greatest Hits record were recorded on a Pro Tools rig, Pro Tools is unbelievable. The fact that the options and the capability of what a Pro Tools rig can do is phenomenal.
To me, the conversation isn't about digital versus analog – it's about the person behind each one of those things. We're not fucking robots, we're human beings. And you can capture that on either of those devices, so the conversation of technology is relevant to Sound City, because ultimately it's why the studio couldn't survive. Fortunately we have someone like Trent Reznor to inspire the other end of the conversation, to say, like, "Hey, man, I'm a classically trained pianist who can outplay everybody in the studio at their own instrument, and rather than use this computer to make up for the things I can't do, I use it for things that have never been done before. I use it as an instrument, but not as a crutch. I use it as this inspired, inspiring tool that has capabilities that are practically unimaginable."
So what's the happy medium between digital and analog?
You use either of those things to capture yourself. Not to manipulate it, not to change it, not to get away from the artist or the person that you are. It's a sensitive subject for any drummer, because the drummers that have changed the world have all had really definite personality, and that personality comes from all of their imperfections. You listen to John Bonham, and his feel was not metronomic, but it was legendary. Keith Moon played like he was on fire. He was a wild drummer. He was sloppy and he was fuckin' frenetic and manic, but that's the Who. Stewart Copeland, his tempo would fuckin' blast off like the space shuttle, but that's the Police. Nowadays, I think it could be hard for a kid to find a favorite drummer, because a lot of that personality is being robbed from these musicians for the sake of perfection, and it's kind of a drag. It's nice to hear drummers like Meg White – one of my favorite fucking drummers of all time. Like, nobody fuckin' plays the drums like that. Or the guy from the Black Keys. Watch that guy play the drums – it's crazy. The dude from Vampire Weekend. Like, if any of those people went to the Berklee School of Music they'd never be accepted, because they're not considered technically proficient. But their music's totally changed the world.
Was it hard to teach yourself to be a director?
No. This movie was not hard to make. Apocalypse Now – probably. The Sound City movie was really getting together with friends and digging deep into what music means to each one of us, telling the story of a studio that's very close to me, and trying to give the viewer something that will inspire them to fall in love with music like I did.
You said at the film's premiere, it feels like the most significant thing you've ever done.
When you're making records, you're trying to make the best album you can make, so that it will represent the person that you are or the band that you're in. The Sound City movie's different. It's more about having kids see this film and be inspired to go to a yard sale and buy a guitar and start a band and play in the garage and then take over the world. Because that can still happen. It happens all the time. To me, personally, it's the most important thing I've done because it's not for me. The story and the idea – that it seems like a memoir, I can understand that. But ultimately I'm trying to turn people on to what it's like to be a musician, and hopefully people will take that and fuckin' run with it. So that there's another kid in a garage, and in 20 years, my daughter will hand me a record and say, "Dad, you might like this," and it'll be some new band that's the biggest band in the world.

This breakthrough serum-in-a-gel contains a synergistic antioxidant combination to help protect the delicate eye area from oxidative stress, while targeted actives revive under-eye skin and reduce the appearance of puffiness.
clinical study
In a 12-week clinical trial, AOX+ Eye Gel significantly reduced fine lines, puffiness, and under-eye bags while improving skin tone.
The clinical trial was conducted on 25 subjects ages 40-60 using one morning application daily of AOX+ Eye Gel.
Containing phloretin, L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and ferulic acid, this protective and corrective serum-in-a-gel provides advanced environmental protection for the delicate eye area.
Innovation 1
New state-of-the-art technology allows active ingredients to be suspended in solution at an acidic pH to penetrate skin just like aqueous serums.
In the morning, apply 1/2 pump per eye area. Apply on the area below the eyes, on the outer corners, and on the brow bone. Maintain a distance of 3 millimeters from the mucous membranes surrounding the eyes. Do not apply product to the inner corners near the nasolacrimal duct (tear duct), below the brow bone, or on the upper lid.
It is normal for vitamin C products to darken after opening due to air and light exposure. Any change in color does not affect the product's efficacy.
key ingredients
Key Ingredient 1
1% phloretin, 5% L-ascorbic acid, 0.5% ferulic acid: An optimal concentration of this synergistic antioxidant blend is formulated to combat damaging free radicals, prevent signs of accelerated aging and reduce existing signs of photoaging like fine lines, wrinkles and uneven skin tone.
Key Ingredient 2
Ruscus aculeatus: Derived from a small evergreen shrub native to Western Europe, this ingredient supports under-eye circulation and helps reduce the appearance of puffiness caused by swelling.
Key Ingredient 3
Caffeine: Helps facilitate drainage of fluid congestion and reduce the look of under-eye bags.

You have to love an Etsy artist whose favorite materials include both film and glue—Anika Toro uses all sorts of bits and pieces to enhance photos that include shots of nooks and crannies in Knoxville. One prime example is the 3-D "Gay Street Birds," a photo of some now defaced graffiti; she hand-cuts prints for sale. "I have edited the color a bit digitally but the texture of the wall remains," says Toro. One never knows what might show up in her photo-based art. "I like to add clippings, thread, digital elements, ephemera. I have added sand, paint, food, my daughter's toys, our recently inherited estate... The ones I have the most fun with are my photo story boxes; for example, a beach scene with text around the border in my broken Spanish, and a small glass bottle with a note inside that translates the text. These pieces can be appreciated as interesting little vignettes or can be interpreted a little deeper." Toro takes inspiration from trips to the mountains, "although walks around town offer some great photo ops, too. I don't like to take things too seriously; humor and irony are pretty important to me." In addition to her Etsy shop, she offers some Knoxville-themed artwork at the Visitors Center downtown and recently started selling in the new Nostalgia shop on McCalla.

The parents of 7-year-old testified before state legislators Wednesday that the state enact new boating safety measures in the wake of the July 4 tragedy that took their daughter's life.
At a public hearing of the state Senate Committee on Investigations at Oyster Bay Town Hall, a lawyer for the family laid out three measures the family wants incorporated into "Victoria's Law."
"The entire family is devastated by this tragedy, which could have and should have been prevented," said attorney Michael DellaUniversita, seated between parents Paul and Lisa Gaines. "The family is determined that their daughter did not die in vain."
A photo of Victoria, who died with two other children July 4 when the boat she was on capsized and sank in Oyster Bay, was placed on the table in front of Lisa Gaines.
Another 24 people aboard the 34-foot were rescued. The cause of the sinking remains under investigation by state and federal authorities. Boating safety experts and others said the vessel was that many people.
The Gaines family wants the state to enact a law that would require all boaters to take a state safety course before operating a vessel, enact strict weight limits for all boats and ensure that adequate security measures are in place during major public events on state waterways.
Hundreds of boats were in and around Oyster Bay for an Independence Day fireworks display sponsored by the Dolan family. The private event draws thousands of people to the waterfront annually on July 4.
The hearing was called by state Sen. Carl Marcellino, R-Syosset, the chairman of the Senate Committee on Investigations and Government Operations.
Marcellino opened the Oyster Bay hearing by saying the panel is not designed to investigate the cause of the tragedy but to examine whether laws should be enacted to make the state's waterways safer.
Marcellino said the panel invited the U.S. Coast Guard to testify at the hearing, but it declined. "They don't feel they should have to testify," Marcellino said. "There is no animous between us, but I disagree."
A host of boating safety experts and others testified at the hearing. Among them was Plainview's the state legislative liaison for the U.S. Power Squadrons. His detailed testimony was punctuated by this personal note he offered as a private boater:
"...No matter what one's experience, there is always something new to learn or something forgotten to be reminded of in any boating safety course," said Weiss, in supporting mandatory boating courses for all operators.
"We want the laws changed so this never happens to anyone's child again," Paul Gaines tearfully told reporters after the family's testimony.
He was holding the picture of his daughter.
