Top award winner of National Best Books 2009 Awards in category of writing/publishing. -- USA Book News, October 18, 2009
"This book is a joy to read and packed full with helpful hints and tips from the first sentence to the last. Whether you write emails or reports at work, or you just like to blog in your spare time, this book is for you and should be treated as a must-read. --Clare Swindlehurst, Blue Archipelago Book Reviews, November, 2009
When 140 character tweets count as communications, writing seems a doomed art. Not so fast, says long-time writer and writing coach Lynda McDaniel. Beyond Twitter and text messages, all those digital bits and bytes on web sites, blogs, newsletters, and press releases are fundamentally ideas expressed in words. If writing is not developed as a skill,she argues, the quality of our ideas rapidly degenerates. Her book is a passionate plea aimed at replenishing the idea wellspring of "American Ingenuity." McDaniel, in the tradition of Strunk and White, has created a guide perfectly suited to the contemporary workplace. Her personal writing journey, started while she was homesteading in North Carolina, sets the tone for her encouraging if-I-can-do-it, so-can-you approach.
Decades of on-the-job writing netted horror stories aplenty. These enliven the learning process while embodying her enthusiasm for writing. "Even the rejects are part of the process," she notes. She models her lessons using vivid words, sentence structure variety, and even well-placed fragments, illustrating how to spice up even the dullest business communication. Succinct chapters show how to overcome procrastination; boost creativity; deal with inner (and outer) critics; get those crummy first drafts out on paper; work with the inverted pyramid (and what that means) to structure writing; cut jargon; directly address readers' needs; and edit, edit, edit.
McDaniel is on a mission to remove fear from writing; her use of image and metaphor provides unusual color. "It's like making a loaf of bread," or "It's more like picking blackberries" [out of the brambles] "than picking huckleberries," [that fall into your bucket practically effortlessly]. Image-rich, witty approaches like "The Bad News Burrito" give unconfident writers a visual, tangible understanding of writing craft.
For those who loathe outlining, the chapter titled "Eureka," includes a detailed explanation of a "Brain Dump" technique that is the basis of an "organic outline." McDaniel explains step by step how to get there. Her discussion of "projection" for writers is unusually insightful and too rarely considered in other basic writing guides.
Brief before-and-after writings illustrate the increased clarity available after editing, whether moving from passive to active voice or turning bureaucratic-ese into clear prose. Though experienced writers may feel there's not adequate meat on the bones, this solid little book packs a punch--with powerful reminders for the pros while giving fearful writers a coach, cheerleader, and role model. McDaniel shares proven practices learned the hard way. This deceptively simple and engaging guide for workplace writers is highly recommended. --Foreword Reviews, December 2009
"Words at Work" offers you writers a painless way to be an author or just do some practical writing with style and effectiveness. Lynda McDaniel gives you a condensed course in lively writing. As someone who for thirty years has made his living by writing, I can tell you that the lessons in this book are the essential ones, and they are good. Catch the spirit in this book and follow the suggestions. I guarantee that your writing will improve and you'll be a happier communicator." --Thomas Moore, author of "Care of the Soul" and his latest book, "Care of the Soul in Medicine."

Words @ Work is exactly what is says it is, words to be used by professionals in the work environment. McDaniel is a writer and coach and she uses her experience to guide reluctant writers through the pitfalls of poor construction, etiquette and grammar. If you are in business in any capacity that requires written communication, your creation is your calling card, your introduction and ultimately, your resume. In this day of email and instant messages, many of us will never meet the person on the other side. In fact we may never even talk to them on a telephone. You will be judged solely on your written word.
As a professional, I have had the opportunity to read and use the wisdom from many self help books and the key is finding one that is timely, doesn't demean and is immediately useful. McDaniel achieves this by teaching you the process from beginning to end, including the little used rough draft and self-critique. In order to become a good writer, you need to become your audience. McDaniel shows you how to see your writing through the eyes of others, how to target your audience and how to make more out of less.
I found her insight, experience and teaching style a very nice blend. Whether you are just starting out, well seasoned or just wondering if your style is helping or hurting, Words @ Work will give you the answer. It is a great desk reference that I completely recommend.
Reviewed by Allbooks reviewer Gregory J. Saunders
The author shared some of her trials and tribulations over her 25 year career as a professional writer as well as five years as a business writing coach. It felt to me as if she was coming alongside me and encouraging me to realize that in any situation I could make my words powerful tools of communication!
Her writing style was conversational, encouraging and anything but preachy or ornery editor (insider term from Words At Work). She stated a mantra I applaud. I quote, "When I started writing, I wish someone had shared these ideas with me: 1. Everyone can learn to write well. 2. Bad writers just stopped too soon."
Chapter Six titled "Corporatespeak" exhorts the writer to write the way they speak. The quote by William Zinsser on page 81 states the corporate America plain talk dilemma, "...plain talk will not be easily achieved in corporate America. Too much vanity is on the line. Executives and managers at every level are prisoners to the notion that a simple style reflects a simple mind. Actually, a simple style is the result of hard work and hard thinking..."
Words At Work is for 2011 and beyond. With technology - email, blogging, texting, getting your message across quickly is something everyone needs to learn. Six Cs of editing is for everyone! You truly will find success with Ms. McDaniel's GPS (grammar, punctuation and style).
My favorite most helpful writing tips were Bad News Burrito, WIIFM (What's in it for me?), six extras for excitement, lose your darlings and Brain Dump 101.Read more ›
Words at Work helped me reframe my negative writing experiences. Tame my "ornery editor." Excavate the constructive criticism from impatient teachers or unkind editors. (If only all that feedback had been framed in a "bad news burrito.") I've carried the shame of 8 1/2" x 11" red X's on term papers for 20 years. 20 years! Now, I choose to morph that memory into fodder for a short story. After struggling with passive voice, to learn it has a place is freeing. To recognize a "darling," admire it and delete it is empowering.
Words at Work has a voice of encouragement, if not recruitment, for the writing community. With a rare combination of authority and vulnerability, Lynda McDaniel outlines the evolution of her writing life. As I moved through the chapters, I practically saw her pick up each of the tools and tips she shares. The skills are not limited to use in the workplace. Words at Work showcases words at play, too.
Reading this book felt like flowing along a river, and I loved every minute of the ride. One of the best things about the book is that the author herself never leaves you. My favorite books are the ones where the authors stay present through examples of their own lives and the lives of others. Then, they weave the stories and examples into their topic, gracefully. Lynda has achieved this in a way that shows her understanding and professionalism, combining the best of journalism with solid, practical business tips, techniques and writing.
This book is more far reaching than even the title would suggest. I found myself taking her words to heart for other projects I am working on that, while not "about" business writing per se, have writing in them.
Everyone should buy this and have it at work for their personal use and encouragement and to share with others--supervisors; peers; vendors and clients. FIVE STARS!!!

We were thinking about doing the San Francisco City Guides walking tour of the Haight on Sunday morning, but I saw a previous post from someone who was uncomfortable in the area because of aggressive panhandling. I believe they abandoned the tour because the wait for the tour to start was so uncomfortable. I know no one can predict whether this is going to an issue this Sunday, but some general advice would be good please.
Thank you

Haight walking tour
Report Abuse
seriously if panhandlers freak you out don;t come to the haight. for good or for ill (and I'm not about sparking a political argument) panhandlers have been allowed in the Haight since the 60's. When you say "aggressive" i don't know what you mean exactly. I've lives here for over 20 yrs and they are a PITA<but no one has ever accosted me physically or gotten on my face when I just walk by.
Report Abuse
The tour does not walk dowh Haight St itself. It starts at the public library, and someties there is a vaigrant there "sleeping it off".
BTW, I saw many panhandelers in London the last 3 weeks. If they don't bother you there, then they won't bother you in the Haight. Just stay off Haight St itself to minimize encounters.
Stu Dudley
Report Abuse
Thanks Stu. I don't have an issue with panhandling, it was the use of the word "aggressive" by the person in that previoius post which prompted my question.
Report Abuse
I'm cruious what the "previous post" was - if you are standing around in a group how aggressive could a panhandler get?
Report Abuse
"Agressive" is subjetive. If he/she grabs me or even touches me - I would call that agressive. If he steps towards me and asks for money but doesn't shout or insult me - somebody might call that agressive - but I would not. If he/she shouts or insults me - I would say that's in the middle.
I have never been touched, insulted, or shouted at by a panhandler in San Francisco or London.
Stu Dudley
Report Abuse
I was reading Stu's recommendations post and this was the one which prompted the question. I am satisfied now that I have nothing to be concerned about and am heading out now to explore some more.
LoriNY1on May 13, 08 at 5:34pm
Stu, what great information. Wish I had this, I just returned from SF and the wine areas. two things I would like to note -
1. I found the Haight to be a horrible area. I wouldn't call the folks hanging around on Sunday mornings as aging hippies, I would term them 'homeless' and quite aggressive. DH and I intended to take the walking tour, but just didn't feel comfortable hanging around waiting. Alamo Square was worth the looksee....
2. Off of Dry Creek Road in Sonoma, we found a wonderful cluster of wineries. Turn at the Family winery sign, go up the hill and you will find a parking lot with several small producers. Our favorites - PapaPietro Perry - wonderful Pinots, Pederson - nice cabs, and Amphora - lots of good Pinots. Would have never found them if John at Ferrari Caranos didn't tell us.
Report Abuse
Ditto what Stu has posted about aggressive being subjective. And to add that in 20+ years of living 4 blocks South of Haight street I have never been touch, grabbed or otherwise been involved in aggressive panhandling. Indeed, in 30+ years of living in SF I can't recall even being yelled at. Here is a for tourists dealing with panhandlers; Ignore them. Don't make eye contact, don't seize up when you see them i.e. don't suddenly clutch your purse, don't make comments to your friends, don't apologize for not giving them anything, keep walking, talking and doing what you were doing.
mztery, if you truly are not about starting a political debate, maybe it would be wise to refrain from making blanket statements such as panhandlers have been "allowed" in the Haight. Just a thought.
Report Abuse
@sab - "allowed" as in, there ARE parts of town where people sitting on the street or asking for money etc would be gently or not chased away. I rarely see panhandlers in true Pac Hts or the Marina for ex, and even rarely enough in Noe Valley. So the fact that so many panhandlers find their way to the Haight and aren't shooed away to me says it's allowed tacitly or otherwise. And my DH has lived here even longer that I have and has seen the same thing.
Report Abuse
And there are parts of town such as Pac Hts and the Marina that are extremely affluent and get very prompt responses from the SFPD.
BTW are you forgetting that the "Sit/Lie" Ordinance was initiated in the Haight?
Report Abuse
reTW are you forgetting that the "Sit/Lie" Ordinance was initiated in the Haight?
and you see how much it's enforced?

Pune bomber receives death sentence
Muslim man found guilty of blast that killed 17
April 19, 2013
An Indian court has handed down a death sentence to a 33-year-old Muslim man found guilty of a bomb attack at a bakery in the western city of Pune three years ago. The attack killed 17 people and injured more than 60.
Mirza Himiyat Baig, a 33-year-old former teacher, was the sole defendant in a case which the court described as the "rarest of the rare," the first bomb attack in India since the deadly Mumbai attacks two years earlier.
"The accused is greatly influenced by the ideology of terrorism, and looking at his calculated moves in giving effect to the conspiracy and terrorism act, I am of the considered view that there are no chances of his reformation and that he is a threat to society," the judgment said.
Baig's defense maintained that Baig was not in Pune on the day of the blast at the popular German Bakery on February 13, 2010. His lawyer A. Rahman also pleaded for leniency on the grounds of his young age, poor family background and the fact that he was an educated person and a teacher.
He also argued that Maharashtra police during investigations had failed to visit the Sri Lankan capital Colombo, where the conspiracy was allegedly hatched in March 2008.
Baig was found guilty of accompanying Yasin Bhatkal, who allegedly planted the bomb.
Five suspects are still at large, all members of a banned militant group, according to police. Two Muslim terror groups claimed responsibility for the blast but investigators say the attack could have been the work of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a larger Pakistan-based terror group operating in Asia.
Investigators said that the attack targeted foreigners, five of whom were killed in the blast, in an area of Pune including the Jewish Chabad House and an international meditation resort called Osho Ashram which is popular with visitors from overseas.

Nearly 957,000 units were sold across Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, a 15 percent jump compared to the average sales volume in February-April, global market research firm GfK said. "It is interesting to highlight that this trend of higher demand for TVs in the month leading to (the) World Cup was also observed four years ago," said Gerard Tan, account director for digital world at GfK. "Events such as the World Cup has created more awareness for larger screen sizes and more advanced models, which will help drive the market in 2014." TV sales in Thailand showed the sharpest increase, followed by Vietnam and Singapore, according to GfK. Although no country in Southeast Asia has qualified for the World Cup, football has a strong following in most of the region of more than 600 million people. The World Cup, which is held every four years, began in Brazil on June 12, with the final match to be played between Germany and Argentina on July 13. © 1994-2014 Agence France-Presse Share Facebook Share on Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest Read More: football sales Singapore world cup tv Agence France-Presse /news/07/26/16/doj-indicts-companions-of-suspected-drug-lord/news/07/26/16/afp-pnp-search-for-4-abducted-police-personnel/news/07/26/16/qc-villages-can-still-implement-discipline-hours-bistek/sports/07/26/16/pacquiao-urged-to-stay-away-from-crawford/focus/07/26/16/dutertes-statement-on-human-rights-an-oxymoron

I KNOW! I can't WAIT! WOOOO!

Stinky blows over the entire issue that is Clinton and the DNC worked together to destroy Bernie. Clinton and the DNC lied about it. Clinton and the DNC got caught. Clinton lies about it again......
Dammit! Now I'm going to Hell for laughing at that.

Can someone please help me.. I don't know what happened to my 901 everytime i tunr it on it always says " Battery empty " then shuts down after 4 seconds. It is fully charged and I just used it for 1 hr then shut it down and now I can't use it : (
This is the 2nd time it happened. The other one will be sent for repair..
The shutdown in 4 seconds is a normal dialog when battery is about to be fully drained. There should be another dialog probably 5 or 10 mins before that tell you it's nearly empty.
The shutdown in 4 seconds is a normal dialog when battery is about to be fully drained. There should be another dialog probably 5 or 10 mins before that tell you it's nearly empty.
The 1hr battery life is more concerning. You may want to get it replaced, or get both the battery AND the charger replaced.
The charger had been a sore point. Are you absolutely it is fully charged (i.e. charged for around 6 hrs continuously with the unit turned off)? There is a green LED on the charge that suppose to go on when charging and off when done. But there are a few issues with it:
1. it is sitting too deep and the LED is not very bright making it difficult to see if it is actually lit up from an off angle. I have had experience where I thought I went off but when I go pick it up and look straight into it it is still on. (and this was in a dimly lit room in the evening!)
2. Said LED is prone to failing - a number of reports saying it either NOT lit up at all or it lit up for a while and goes off BEFORE completely charging
3. The charge will have two stages of "hot" and "warm" throughout the full charging cycle - from 0% to about 65% full it will be VERY HOT, then it will enter the 2nd stage where it continue to charge but only lukewarm from 65% to 100%. I think this 2nd stage actually took longer than the first.
4. It won't fully charge if it was not switched off. It doesn't matter if it is playing music or standby with screen switched off, the battery is drained just as fast. Plugging it in when power on may actually drain (albeit slowly) the battery instead of charging it.
Combining these quirkiness of the charger I have first-hand experience, and read other's postings that the battery wasn't fully charged when we thought it was. Worth an extra night to charge it and see if it wasn't fully charged earlier.
Thank you for your reply. Nothing seemed to happened base on your post in my case. I have charged them (1st and 2nd unit of 901) for 6 hrs. The charger was working fine, the green light is very visible, it turns off after it is fully charged. I used the first 901 (stock card) for 45 minutes switching from iem and headphone, after using them I was planning to add more songs so i turned it off after setting the volume to minimum.
Then i connected the 901 usb, after 2 secs i heard a sound from inside that something burned inside and it is pretty obvious when i smell it. Then " battery empty & shut down " happens.
2nd 901 (balanced card), before i charged them, i loaded songs via 901 (batt was low after) usb then turned it off (fully charged for 6 hrs) was able to use it today for 1 hr and everything worked fine then turned it off. After I got back home, it won't turn on, made a hard reset after a while it turned on then voila as soon as the homescreen appeared, " battery empty & shut down " again. Reinstalled the balanced card but same thing happens. Then I smelled the unit and it was the sa e smell again but this time lesser burn in smell. I took off the batt now and hope to get a reply from hifiman asap. Both 901 have the latest firmware.
I normally charge mine for 3 hours after the green light has gone off.

1.081 beta was not working out for me. It kept resetting my player, despite everything I tried (different cards, exFat vs FAT32, etc).
Since I couldn't find the 1.080 to rollback to, I decided to just up to the 1.082 beta.
Everything seems good so far.
Link here:
Instructions are same as always:
Copy the zip file without renaming it, into the root folder of your FAT32 sd card.
Turn off the player, then hold the home button and the power on button at the same time to turn on the update mode.
When the player turns on, you can take your finger off the power on button but continue to hold the home button.
Finally, when the update starts, you can remove your finger from the home button.

HIFIMAN HM-901 Firmware v1.082 Beta Update
2013-9-18 1:17:08

If you're using the same charger for both HM901s, then it seems the charger is the problem. If you have 2xHM-901s (assuming full package) then you should have another charger to try. Have you given that a shot?
I had 2xHM-901s, both with balanced amps. Both I didn't have problems, although the 1st HM-901 was in my ownership for less than 2 weeks, and it went to spkrs01 - of which, I didn't hear of him having any problems either.
Now I am using 1082 firmware and most of problems have been solved - M4A files now play .
The main issue I have now is skipping songs which I never had before - sometimes no sound but the player actually works more than is doesn't not bad for $999
I think if you spend $1898 with HIFIMAN they may produce a player that actually works all the time.
Come on HIFIMAN your nearly there - more firmware updates please

TORONTO High-scoring forward Mark Matthews of Oshawa was drafted first overall by the Edmonton Rush as talent developed in Canada supplied all of the first-round National Lacrosse League picks for the third year in a row.
The Minnesota Swarm got the next three players Monday night: imposing defenceman Brock Sorensen of Peterborough, offensive force Kiel Matisz of Stoney Creek and forward Shayne Jackson of Bowmanville.
The Buffalo Bandits had the fifth pick and chose forward Dhane Smith of Kitchener and the Calgary Roughnecks used the sixth and seventh positions to get forwards Joe Resetarits of Hamburg, N.Y., and Matthew Dinsdale of Coquitlam, B.C.
Edmonton also had the eighth pick and took Matthews' Whitby junior teammate Curtis Knight, also a forward.
The Colorado Mammoth went for forward Colton Clark of Burnaby, B.C., and Minnesota closed out the first round when it called the name of defenceman Alex Crepinsek of Oakville.
Resetarits is the only American selected in the first round in the past three years. He honed his indoor skills playing junior in St. Catharines and senior in Brampton.
The Toronto Rock had to wait until the second round for its first chance and selected defenceman Brad Kri of Acton.
If there ever was a time for lacrosse to thrive in Edmonton, it is now. GM-coach Derek Keenan's crew created a buzz last May by unexpectedly making it to the NLL final for the first time and they've now got a dynamic scorer in Matthews to lead the offence.
"We have to be realistic," said Keenan. "We were 6-10 last season.
"We had a great run at the end and were real close to winning it all but we need to have more consistent regular seasons. Mark is going to help us do that."
Matthews, 6-foot-4 and 210 pounds, played field lacrosse this summer in Denver where he was a U of D all-America NCAA star. The 22-year-old last played indoors in 2011 when he helped the Whitby Warriors win the Canadian junior championship. He amassed 87 points in 21 post-season games.
"It's not like he has to come in and score seven a night because we'll have a pretty good supporting cast around him," said Keenan. "I'm sure, when you're the first overall pick and you're highly touted like he is, there will be some pressure on him, but he'll have good guys with him both from skills and leadership perspectives.
"He's not going to have the weight of the world on his shoulders and have to worry about carrying our franchise because we've got a good core as it is. That's the way we're approaching it. But he's going to help, for sure."
Being reunited with Keenan, Knight and Rush returnee John Lafontaine, another former Whitby teammate, appeals to Matthews, who has a left-handed shot.
"His systems fit our style," Matthews said of his past and future coach. "For the last couple of weeks it was pretty evident that Edmonton was going to take me and now that it's over it's nice to have that monkey off my back and we can start to focus on getting ready for the winter.
"I haven't played (indoors) for a while but I practised with the Warriors and Derek over the course of the summer a bit to get the rust off and work on the speed and agility I'll need in the NLL game."
Minnesota was the first team in NLL history to get three of the first four picks.
Sorensen, 23, missed the senior indoor season in Peterborough while rehabbing from anterior cruciate ligament surgery last May. Swarm head coach Joe Sullivan, an assistant coach during summers with the Mann Cup-champion Lakers, is well aware of the potential possessed by the 6-6, 220-pounder, who was field lacrosse captain at Ohio State. His older brother, Kyle, is a Washington Stealth defenceman.
"My rehab is right on schedule," said Sorensen. "I'm expecting to be ready for late November, which is great."
He's eager to join Lakers buddy and Swarm captain Andrew Suitor in the Xcel Energy Center.
"Their youth speaks to why they were so successful last year," he said. "They transition the ball very well. They run and they run. Andrew is a good friend of mine and I'm looking forward to this."
Matisz, 6-5 and 220, has two summers of senior indoor play under his belt with the Brooklin Redmen. In junior, the 23-year-old was 2010 OLA scoring champion with Burlington. Like Matthews and Sorensen, Matisz, who attended Robert Morris University in Pennsylvania, also was an NCAA field player.
"Since I was eight years old, I wanted to go play collegiate lacrosse and I did that and now that I'm here and it's done I'm pretty happy about it," he said. "I couldn't be happier to go to the Minnesota Swarm. I can't wait to contribute."
Jackson was with the Langley, B.C., senior team this summer after playing on the Minto Cup championship team in Whitby with Matthews and Knight. He also placed NCAA field ball at Limestone College. He's smaller than the first three players selected but excels at setting picks for teammates.
Jackson was asked what the lure was to join a league offering a first-year pro salary of no more than $9,000.
"I don't play the game for money at all," he replied. "It's been a dream of mine to play in this league since I was little. I've never thought about the money. I'm just going to keep playing lacrosse like I have since I was 10 years old."
Dhane Smith, who just turned 20, was overjoyed to be picked by Buffalo. His cousin, Billy Dee Smith, is a Bandits veteran.
"I can't wait to be there and to get into camp," Smith said. "I'll try my hardest."
Resetarits, who played field with the Toronto Nationals this summer as well as with the indoor Excelsiors, was considered the most pro-ready prospect available so should be able to step right into the Calgary lineup.
"To be taken in the first round is something special, something I'll always remember," he said. "Coming to Ontario to play helped me develop as a player. Living close to the border helped. Winning the Mann Cup my first year with Brampton, playing alongside my brother (Frank Resetarits) was amazing. I learned a lot from Dan Dawson. I'm thrilled I've been able to play most of my life in Canada."
Dinsdale led the B.C. junior league in scoring this year playing for his hometown Coquitlam team.
Knight is much smaller at 5-9 than Matthews but his leadership traits are outstanding. Knight was MVP of the 2011 Minto Cup tournament.
Kri, the first Rock pick, was on the Orangeville junior team that won the Canadian junior championship this year. The head coach was Rock assistant coach Matt Sawyer. Kri, 20, has been a Rock fan since birth.
"I grew up on the other side of the window (in Air Canada Centre) and now that I'm going to be on the other side it's awesome," said Kri.

Of Potato Heads and Polaroids
Some savvy Amazon shoppers have spotted a new item today. It looks like Mike McCready is adding "author" or maybe "photographer" to his resume. Potato Heads & Polaroids: My Life Inside & Out Of Pearl Jam by Mike McCready has been set for a March 7th, 2017 release. It's currently available for pre-order on Amazon for $35. Presumably a Ten Club sale is coming soon.

Pearl Jam, Live at Third Man Records
Holy @#$%!! Third Man Records and Pearl Jam are offering a beautiful package in honor of Pearl Jam's June 9th performance in Nashville. Fans who sign up for TMR's Platinum Vault Subscription service (a $60 service) by July 31st will be treated some some amazing Pearl Jam goodies.
- a black-and-gold, split-colored vinyl version of Pearl Jam's set packaged in a custom jacket
- Interstellar Overdrive, Corduroy, Pendulum, Mind Your Manners, 1/2 Full, Wasted Reprise, Life Wasted, Deep, Of The Earth, Hard To Imagine, Let Me Sleep
- a 7" clear vinyl recording of Eddie Vedder singing Out of Sand
- a 9"X 6" hardcover photo collection
- a 1" Pearl Jam/Third Man metal lapel pin
- a 3" Pearl Jam/Third Man patch
Here is the full description from Third Man Records, in case all of that didn't get you excited.
On June 9th, 2016, Third Man Records was humbled to welcome Pearl Jam for a performance in our Nashville Blue Room live venue. Kept secret until the absolute last moment, the crowd of only 250 included lucky Ten Club members, mayors, NBA superstars, country music royalty, and possibly even a few stowaways. To call it a "warm-up" for their headlining set at Bonnaroo two nights later would be to vastly undervalue the evening. The band tore through a clutch collection of songs that spanned both deep cuts and fan favorites. A classic like "Deep" from Ten sits comfortably next to "Life Wasted" from their self-titled album Pearl Jam, and set-closer "Let Me Sleep" was originally recorded in 1990 (and was the band's first-ever Ten Club release). The highlight of the performance came when Pearl Jam invited Jack White and his guitar to the stage to join on a song that clocked in at over seven minutes and featured wild dueling solos between White and Mike McCready, this epic performance left every mouth in the audience agape and every face on stage all smiles. Those seven minutes were truly some of the most memorable and historic in seven years since the Blue Room opened its doors.

Miles To Go Before I Sleep
Pearl Jam and Showtime have announced a documentary chronicling the work done by Pearl Jam's road crew and the work they do to support the band. Miles To Go Before I Sleep will air tonight on Showtime at 8pm ET/PT.
Short documentary chronicling the true story of famed musicians and the relationships they have with their roadies. Features music legends Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Chris Shiflett (Foo Fighters) and Jim James (My Morning Jacket), who speak candidly about their time on the road and the importance of the crew who work tirelessly to put the show together, as well as capturing a day behind-the-scenes with the crew of Pearl Jam. Don't miss the premiere on Friday, June 24th at 8 PM ET/PT.The documentary is surely, in no small part, inspired by Sunday's debut of Roadies, a series by Pearl Jam friend, Cameron Crowe. You can check out the pilot for that series right now on YouTube.

Pearl Jam Write Congress
This week, Pearl Jam were signatories on two petitions to the US Congress. The first, signed earlier this week, asks Congress to make changes to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which many artists feel hurts musicians to the benefit of major tech companies like YouTube and Spotify.
The second letter is published in the most recent issue of Billboard magazine and asks Congress to require background checks for every gun sale and suspected terrorists to be blocked from purchasing guns.
If you want to add your voice to these, or any other issues, you can use this link to find the lawmakers that represent you specifically, so that you can write them letters and ask for change.

Building Bridges with Discipline
As practitioners of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, our role is to educate patients and medical practitioners about the various safety aspects of our medicine. Medical doctors that embrace Chinese medicine want to collaborate and include Chinese herbal medicine in more aspects of clinical care to support their patients.
Hip Flexor Contractures & LBP in Above-the-Knee Amputations

With Low-Back Pain, Sometimes Little Things Matter
Typical treatments for low back pain involve large muscles like the quadratus lumborum, iliopsoas, and piriformis. However, there are situations when a very small muscle, the multifidus, can play a significant role in the diagnosis and treatment of low back muscular or spinal injury.

Learning from Harm
By Keith Eric Grant, PhD, NCTMB
In 2003, Ernst and Grant separately reviewed the medical literature for reports of harm from massage therapy. Both papers were consistent with Ernst's conclusion that, "Massage is not entirely risk free.However, serious adverse events are probably true rarities." I want to briefly point out and review four case reports added to the literature since those two reviews. First, let me add some motivating comments.
As noted by Cohen and Nelson (2011), the legal basis for the regulation of health care practices by the states is protection of the public from harms of incompetence and malfeasance. The latter is primarily a function of oversight and discipline. The first, ensuring competence within scope of practice, has elements both of training and of monitoring for capacity to practice. Here, I'm focusing on the aspect of training.
The importance of a scope of practice is to define what tasks a practitioner is expected to competently perform, in what contexts, and the presence of what co-morbidities. Looking at case reports of injuries might provide a window on flaws in the expected competencies. However, It isn't enough just to know that an injury occurred. We need to identify the nature of the risk and determine if specific changes in training and practice protocols can eliminate or reduce it.
Aksoy et al. report the case of a 38-year-old woman with complaints of persistent right shoulder pain and limited range of motion (ROM) after a single session of deep tissue massage. There were no predisposing factors or specific muscle pains prior to massage. During a deep tissue massage for purposes of relaxation, she felt pain on the left side of her neck and at the top of her left shoulder radiating toward her arm while work was being done along her neck and shoulders. The pain continued afterward, and the patient noted that her left arm felt "long and heavy" while standing. She also had difficulty lifting her arm up and reaching back. There was no numbness or tingling during or after the deep tissue massage. Subsequent diagnosis indicated injury to the spinal accessory nerve, resulting in weakness of the trapezius muscle and scapular winging. While pain resolved, two years after injury recovery of strength was only partial. While a cautionary note for deep work at the neck and shoulder, no details are given that allow technique evaluation. Any sudden pain during massage treatment follow by subsequent indications of motor impairment should be taken as a clear indication for referral.
Crump and Paluska report a case of venous thromboembolism (VTE) following vigorous deep tissue massage in a previously healthy 67-year-old man with no identifiable risk factors other than his age. The authors note that physicians are often either unaware of or fail to follow evidence-based guidelines for the prevention and treatment of VTE. In this case, there was a five-day delay between initial medical examination at an emergency room and initiation of treatment subsequent to a second exam by his primary care physician. The patient reported a history of right calf pain and swelling, which had preceded the onset of his back pain by five days. The right calf symptoms had begun the day after receiving a vigorous deep tissue massage (for nonmedical reasons), which had included the lower extremities. His calf symptoms had gradually improved over the next five days, at which time he developed the right upper thoracic pain that had prompted his initial visit to the emergency department. The reporting physicians' conclusions are simply cautionary.
This case report suggests that nonpenetrating trauma to the legs, such as vigorous massage, is a potential risk factor that might be unrecognized and underreported. This report should not necessarily deter individuals without any known risk factors for VTE from receiving massage therapy. Additional research is needed to clarify the risks associated with nonpenetrating trauma to the legs, especially in older adults and other susceptible groups.
Wu and Wang report on a 40 year-old woman with injury to the posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) following a local friction massage for tennis elbow (lateral tendinosis). A detailed review of history and physical examination did not reveal any other possible etiology other than the friction massage. The technique anomaly in this case appears to be extension of the friction massage to more than 4 cm below the epicondyle. The authors note that such extension exposes the PIN to risk of damage via compression in its path through the supinator muscle. They recommend that friction massage not extend more than 4 cm below the epicondyle.
Lee et al. report on a cervical cord injury after massage in a 47 year-old male. In this case, the massage was for relaxation. He lied supine without a pillow under his neck, and passive range-of-motion exercise was applied as warm-up movements for his arms. The operator then applied oil on his body, followed by gliding and compression over his anterior thorax and bilateral neck. Suddenly, he felt acute weakness of all four limbs. The weakness remained even though the massage was stopped immediately. He needed moderate to maximal assistance to stand and walk.
There is nothing particularly striking in the description of the techniques themselves. The authors note that the mechanism of injury is not clear. However, the client had a history of cervical spine degenerative disease and had also experienced far more limited muscle weakness following a previous massage. The report underscores the need for taking a history and in obtaining medical clearance for massage where there are factors predisposing toward serious injury.

"We had stayed at this Howard Johnson's before, and had a room near the stairs. We found it to be very loud. This time we got a suite and it was much better. Although the place was actually quite full, you would not have known it."

"We stayed at Siding 36 two years ago and liked the room. This year we stayed two nights and we were prepared for the fact that this is a small motel with no breakfast. We had coffee in the room before heading downtown to have breakfast. Very relaxing and the room was very clean."
