Hi all,
We still don't have plans for the wch 2016!
And although 2015 was loads of fun, I won't be organizing the next one for a number of reasons. Apart from the fact that it was quite a bit of work, I feel like it should be somewhere else in-between at least once...
So, I'd like to urge all of you to consider if you might be able to do that! Or, if 2016 would be too short-term, perhaps 2017?
In particular, I'd like to state that the world championship does not have to take place in Europe. Arguably, given how little activity there is here right now, and how much there is in East Asia, maybe the next one should be there! I would love to see that happen (although I don't want to discourage people in EU, either).
Also, as someone who organized two world championships before, I'd love to help anyone who wants to do that, both by sharing my experience and by providing scoreganizer assistance/improvements!
Happy sweeping,

subset: commoncrawl

Towns in Metro East of St. Louis in Southern Illinois
Alton - Known as being the hometown of Jazz musician Miles Davis, and Robert Wadlow (the tallest man in history), Alton is on the map for more than just its buildings. With a population of over 27,000 residents, the city has been declining in population, but is still extremely popular. The city dates back to before 1673, when the first written evidence is dated. A rich cultural life including the Jacoby Arts Center and the Alton Symphony Orchestra as well as arts and crafts fairs throughout the year, a rich food history, and multiple high schools, including the award winning Alton High School make the city an excellent place to live. It's also home to numerous landmarks, and its oldest buildings date back to the mid-1600s, where the city became a rich trading area, with streets paved in brick, many of which still exist today. The city also has a Native American history, as evidenced by local archaeological finds and the famous Piasa bird painted onto a cliff nearby. Alton is tribute to its history, and is popular for tourists who want to come to see Victorian homes, many of which still bear evidence of the Civil War in the form of tunnels used for the Underground Railroad. It's also popular for shopping, and a varied nightlife.
Belleville - Located in St. Clair County, Belleville is the largest city in St. Metro East, thanks in no small part to the Scott Air Force Base. With a large military population, the city is quiet despite over 42,000 residents, but still has a cultural life of jazz and rock clubs, as well as the Belleville Philharmonic Orchestra. The city was one of the 10 2011 recipients of the All American City Award, given to recognize communities with outstanding achievements. With over 20 yearly events and international attractions, including the #1 art fair in the nation, Belleville has a lot to offer for tourists as well as locals who live there. The city was incorporated in 1819, and quickly attracted German immigrants looking for jobs in the nearby industrial factories, coal mines, and farms. The Belleville public library also claims the title of the state's oldest, predating the Illinois State Library by 3 years.
Edwardsville - Taking the title of the third oldest city in Illinois, Edwardsville stands out for its parks and recreation, historic buildings and places like the St. Louis Street, and the Edwardsville Art Center. As the County Seat of Madison County, Edwardsville is one of the largest cities in the county, with a population of just over 24,000. The city was incorporated in 1818, and was one of the first settlements in the area following the Louisiana Purchase. Historic buildings, including the county courthouse, give the area a unique look, and many buildings are in the National Register of Historic Places. With numerous parks the Watershed Nature Center, two high schools, and its own college, Edwardsville has a lot to offer for residents, and was named #3 of the Top 10 Towns for Family in 2010, making it one of the best places for families in the U.S..
O'Fallon - O'Fallon is one of the fastest growing towns in the Metro area, and the third largest in Metro-East, and has had that title more than once in its history. First created as a small farming area, O'Fallon was put on the map by a new railroad depot, and the city was plotted, and lots were sold in a public auction almost all at once. The city has gained in population every year since its founding, except for 1930, which is a unique achievement. In addition to its pride of place as a popular place to live, O'Fallon has 11 parks, 3 major annual festivals, and 15 local schools, which offers a lot in terms of things to do and entertainment for families. The towns close proximity to the Scott Air Force Base means that there are plenty of military and military dependents living in the area, as well as business from those families. The Scott Air Force Base Field is also a historical place, and visited by tourists. Yearly festivals celebrate arts, crafts, and culture, and are usually held in the fall, and are large enough to draw visitors from around Illinois.
Collinsville - Singular attractions like the world's largest ketchup bottle, the largest man made earthwork in North America (Monks Mound, which is a UNESCO site) and Native American historical site, make Collinsville an interesting visit for residents and tourists alike. The more than 24,000 residents are also very diverse, with German, Native American, African, Polynesian, and many other culturally diverse residents. Collinsville dates back to 1812, where it was founded by German American settlers from Pennsylvania, just 8 years after the Louisiana Purchase. The town also boasts its production of 85% of the world's horseradish, which is imported to countries including Germany and China. The town itself is home to several schools, and hosts multiple events throughout the year, including horse racing, the Horseradish festival, and an Italian Fest in the fall. While most well known for their horseradish, Collinsville ha a lot to offer in terms of education, with more than 20 local schools, churches, and things to do including shopping, and nightlife.
Granite City - More than a dozen local schools, 12 parks including the city's most popular, Wilson Park, and well defined neighborhoods with their own history and culture, Granite City is as diverse as a much larger city. While first founded around a factory producing kitchen utensils known as Granite ware, most of the city is now residential rather than industrial. The city was also the place of a patent for creating easy patterning on enamel, and the resulting factories in the area eventually supported in excess of 4,000 jobs. It also resulted in a railroad hub, allowing new people to easily move in. The area includes well-kept residential homes and parks, as well as industrial areas, rental zones, and multiple churches, owing to its history as an immigrant town, where new residents sought out work in industrial factories in the area. 10 schools, which are popular for their diverse activities, strong sports and extracurricular activities, and a graduation rate 10% higher than the state average makes the city an excellent place for families with kids aged 3-18. Today, the area undergoes frequent renovations, and with a variety of neighborhoods, has something for almost everyone.

Wessex FM News
Dorset Hospital Keeping Food Standards High Amid Survey Controversy
2:27pm 27th August 2013
Over half of patients at Dorset County Hospital have rated food served to them as "good" despite poor results elsewhere in England.
A recent survey claims 50% of NHS patients are dissatisfied with meals on the wards.
Dorchester's Hospital rated highly though for quality and choice of food.
The Campaign Group for Better Food is accusing Hospitals of hiding the truth about the quality of food they serve. It's after they compared figures from this latest survey - gathered by Hospitals themselves - with an independent survey by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
There's a stark difference between the two.
Many Hospital Bosses gave themselves top marks for their dishes. But that's in contrast to the CQC report which reveals half of patients are dissatisfied with what's on offer.
Good news for Dorset County Hospital though, 6 out of 10 surveyed rated their meals as "good" and 9 out of 10 said they were given a choice of food.
Director of Nursing at Dorset County Hospital Alison Tong told Wessex-FM their kitchen tries to keep standards high:
"The menu choices are varied. Patients generally get a choice of hot meals, cold meals and sandwiches. Same with deserts and lunch and evening menus, plus they can have snacks."
"The kitchen team work tirelessly to ensure the service they provide works for patients so it meets their requirements. But that it's also nutritionally stable and sound and I think they go above and beyond to make sure that happens."

Cartier Ballon Bleu De Cartier
MRP: ₹431,000New GST MRP: ₹400,830
Own this watch at an EMI of ₹35,802
For an exciting offer or information on this product call our luxury watch experts on the following numbers (10 AM - 7 PM IST):
+91 8725028896 | +91 8725028884
Established in 1847 by Louis-Francois Cartier, Cartier originated as a simple jewellery workshop based in 29, Rue Montorgueil, Paris. The hard work of its founder, his son Alfred Cartier, and eventually, his grandson Jacques-Theodule Cartier, the brand grew into one of the most prestigious watch making institutions of the world.
Ballon Bleu de Cartier was launched in 2007 as a culmination of the brand's mastery as a jewellery maker, with its refined aesthetics and skilled finesse. Watches from this line are easily distinguishable owing to their distinctive frame and components, alluring the pickiest of watch aficionados.
The Ballon Bleu the Cartier model number W6920046 for ladies, features a 36 mm case moulded out of steel into the double round shape unique to the collection, with a thickness of 12.05 mm. The first round houses the dial, with a second bubble at 3 o'clock encasing the crown. Made of steel, the crown sports intricate fluting across its diameter, and is imbedded with a blue sapphire cabochon. Silvered and lacquered, the opaline dial is guilloche worked with a sunray effect that displays the true artistic mastery of Cartier. Roman numerals mark out the hours in black, with an interior track for smaller divisions of time. The steel bracelet sports alternately brushed and polished links for a multi-layered visual experience.
The Cartier calibre 076 powered mechanical movement ofthe watch, has automatic winding for immaculate timekeeping. Three sword shaped hands, crafted from blued steel, provide the hour, minute and second functions. Sapphire crystal glass shielding on the face protects it from scratches and renders it water resistant to a depth of 30 m.
Interesting Facts
Cartier has a legacy of being the choice of royals. As was once said by King Edward VII of England, Cartier is the "the King of Jewellers and the Jeweller to Kings," as is shown by the fact that royalty like Princess Diana, Kate Middleton and Princess Caroline of Monaco chose to sport watches from the brand.
The unusual name of the Ballon Bleu de Cartier is due to its light, circular dial which is reminiscent of a balloon, and the blue sapphire adorning the side of every timepiece from this collection. With a streamlined and elegant design, the line offers watches that are suitable for both men and women. Sophisticated artistry and superior watchmaking skills displayed in every timepiece belonging to the Ballon Bleu collection makes it an extremely memorable experience for its patrons.
The primary attraction of the Ballon Bleu de Cartier lies in its simplistic yet contemporary crafting. The perfect circular shape of the case is gently succeeded by a second circle located behind the three o'clock position, which houses the sapphire cabochon set crown. The dial comes in the subdued tones of white and black, with select models extending the colour pallette. The centre of the dial is the guilloche worked in all Ballon Bleu watches, with some cases sporting a date window or additional subdials. The hands are sword shaped and available as hour, minute, and in some cases, seconds indicators. The fixed bezels of these timepieces are adorned with diamonds in certain models for an added element of glamour. Watches from this collection operate on mechanical or quartz movements, with precise timekeeping abilities. The satin brushed or polished straps of the entire collection makes for watches that are ideal ornaments for the quintessential watch fanatic.
As King Edward VII of the United Kingdom once said, Cartier is the "King of Jewelers and the Jeweler to Kings." Today, Cartier in general and the Ballon Bleu de Cartier collection in particular is found to cater to the needs of the royals. Kate Middleton was seen sporting a Ballon Bleu watch on her 2014 Australia trip, reinforcing the strong ties Cartier has traditionaly shared with royalty.

I create mixed media constructions with a range of commonplace objects and materials that people have used and discarded over time. The impetus for my art is to reveal subtle and significant shifts in culturally shared values and practices. I am attracted to the disappearing relics of the past and the process by which they illuminate and inform current social, historical, political, and cultural contexts.
Obsolete hand tools, articles of domesticity, architectural fragments, and discarded children's clothing are imbued with a deeply physical sense of humanity. Recontextualized as art, they are cultural indicators of a disruption in shared experience and memory. My sculptures, assemblages, and art installations call attention to life's temporality and mutability.
Recent exhibitions include "Evidence of Life" at Doug Adams Gallery in Berkeley, "By Mainly Unexpected Means" at Meridian Gallery in San Francisco, "Poetics of Disposability" at the Triton Museum of Art in Santa Clara, "Changing Context" at Azusa Pacific University, and "Dark Inheritance" at Palos Verdes Art Center.
My artwork is in the collections of the City of Palo Alto, Oracle Corporation, San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles, and International Museum of Collage, Assemblage and Construction. I earned the MFA in Spatial Arts from San Jose State University and BFA in Drawing and Printmaking from University of Florida.
During my residency at Cubberley Artist Studio Program, I am continuing my exploration of objects as conveyors of cultural worth and individual identity. Central to my art practice is the studio space that accommodates both the storage of collected accumulations and an area for assemblage and experimentation with a variety of materials and techniques. The CASP community of serious and diverse artists creates opportunities for collaboration, professional networking, and community engagement that further my artistic goals.

Reflections, August 20, 2016 - January 22, 2017, at the Museum of Craft and Design, San Francisco, CA. Solo exhibition of mixed media sculptures. Link: http://sfmcd.org/exhibitions-marianne-lettieri/
Using collections and memory as ways to work through current social and political contexts, Marianne Lettieri's Reflections contextualizes overlooked relics of home making. The ritual of repetitive acts and the accumulation of objects in the domestic sphere each create a physical reminder of the passage of time. Lettieri presents vintage and Victorian tools of domestic labor in new configurations, reinforcing the perpetual flux and interconnectedness of life and communities through time.
Lettieri celebrates the past lives of the objects used in her sculptures. Leaving the patina of age and the visible traces of the personalities who once owned the objects, the objects come to be known in the present with a physical marker of their past. While the materials and processes used in this body of work change, they are linked by formal concerns and content. Lettieri's arrangements are orderly, elegant and economical, relating back to the overarching theme of domestic labor that leads the content of work.

"New World" has been one of the more promising and anticipated Korean releases of late, a blockbuster with a powerhouse cast that features three of the country's biggest and most acclaimed actors in Choi Min Sik ("Old Boy"), Hwang Jung Min ("The Unjust") and Lee Jung Jae ("The Thieves"). The second film from Park Hoon Jung, director of "The Showdown" and writer of "I Saw the Devil" and "The Unjust", the film is a character driven crime drama charting a mob leadership struggle and the efforts of the police to intervene. Also starring Park Sun Woong ("The Gifted Hands") and actress Song Ji Hyo ("Codename: Jackal"), the film was a box office hit in Korea as well as earning multiple nominations at the Baeksang Arts Awards, and has since been picked up for a Hollywood remake.
After the chairman of Goldmoon, the largest crime corporation in Korea, is killed in a dubious accident, the two heirs apparent, Jung Chung (Hwang Jung Min) and Lee Joong Gu (Park Sun Woong) are immediately at each other's throats for the right to take over. Meanwhile, the police, led by chief Kang Hyung Chul (Choi Min Sik), launch an operation codenamed 'New World', designed to influence the leadership race and install a more easily controlled candidate of their own choosing. Unbeknownst to Jung, his right hand man and friend Lee Ja Sung (Lee Jung Jae) is actually an undercover cop, who has been working his way up the ranks in the gang for nearly a decade, and who is now being pushed by Kang to help pull the strings. With a child on the way, Lee wants out, and finds himself caught between the warring gang factions, his loyalty to Jung, and his duty as a cop to follow orders.
Although most of its elements, in particular the undercover plot and the clash between brotherhood and the law, might not sound like anything new, what really sets "New World" apart is some truly accomplished storytelling. With Park Hoon Jung having already written two of the best Korean thrillers of the last few years, this probably shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, though the film really does stand out in this respect, with an immensely involving and tense narrative packed with exquisitely timed twists and revelations, not one frame or detail of its two hours plus running time feeling superfluous. Though it might sound predictable, the film is full of rich detail and realistic though entertaining developments, and it grips right from the shocking opening scene through to the bleak and bitter end.
The character writing is similarly impressive, the film featuring a group of fully realised and believable protagonists who all ring true. While the film might start out seeming to be dealing with the usual figures, Jung Chung coming across as a flamboyant brute, Lee Ja Sung as a decent and measured fellow, and Kang as a tough, driven cop, Park does a great job of subverting expectations, providing the kind of character arcs and development rarely seen in the genre. This level of depth really fleshes out and adds emotional weight and considerable moral complexity to the film's many friendships, relationships and enmities, giving it real impact when it matters and making sure that the themes of loyalty and betrayal hit home. Of course, the acting plays a huge part in this, and none of the leads disappoint, all three delivering multi-layered powerhouse performances. While Hwang Jung Min and Choi Min Sik impress greatly, it's arguably Lee Jung Jae who takes top honours, with a shifting and sympathetic turn that pulls the viewer into his character's increasingly desperate situation.
It's hard to believe that "New World" is only the second outing from Park Hoon Jung, as he directs with real maturity and assurance, keeping things tight throughout. The film is perfectly paced, and is slick and stylish in a subtle manner, with great visuals and production values, reflecting both the glamour and grit of the high flying gangster life. Park's confidence really shines through when it comes to the film's level of action and violence and in the way in which he weaves the set pieces into the plot rather than just throwing them in for effect. Though the film is never driven by or most memorable for its brutality, it's certainly a tough and hard edged affair, filled with mass brawls, baseball bats and knives, getting exceedingly bloody in places and featuring one of the most carnage packed montages in Korean gangster cinema, not to mention one of the most amazing elevator scenes. Park uses the havoc to underline the subject matter, never shying away from the inherent unpleasantness and back stabbing of gang life, and though the film has a somewhat flashy façade, there's no mistaking its dark heart.
"New World" is a fantastic and vastly entertaining film and a huge boost for Park Hoon Jung, immediately marking him as a director to watch. Easily one of the best crime dramas from Korea, and quite possibly from anywhere else of the last few years, it towers above most other genre efforts, thanks in no small part to the sterling efforts of its top drawer cast – for fans of the form, this is about as close to a must-see as it's possible to get.

Mental Health
Mental illness indirectly impacts all Canadians, as everyone knows and loves a family member, friend or colleague who is dealing with a diagnosis.
One in five of Canadians will personally be diagnosed with a mental illness in their lifetime, which translates into more than 6.5 million Canadians of which 1.2 million are in the GTA.
The onset of most mental illness occurs during adolescence and young adulthood. Mental illness is the second leading cause of human disability and premature death in Canada and on any given week, at least 500,000 employed Canadians are unable to work due to mental illness. As a result, $51 billion is the estimated cost of mental illness to the Canadian economy in terms of health care and lost productivity.
Needless to say, the impact is dramatic.
A first step in managing and dealing with mental illness is extending one's frame of reference and base of knowledge. The following "Fast Facts" relate to common mental health related illnesses, though the list is not exhaustive.

EXFO's 40G/100G integrated multiservice testing solution for carrier labs and the NEM market.
The ongoing growth of enterprise, residential and mobile multimedia services (such as peer-to-peer, IPTV and video-over-Internet) is producing unprecedented levels of traffic, stressing the bandwidth capabilities of metro and core transport networks.
Consequently, carriers worldwide are actively seeking strategies to efficiently and cost-effectively scale IP packet transmission. Designed to facilitate this transition, 40G/100G Ethernet technologies give carriers the flexibility to phase in the implementation of these higher-speed rates to better align capacity increases with their specific growth and budget strategies.
These new data rates are based on the IEEE 802.3ba standard. The most significant concept introduced in this new working standard is the use of parallel optics that strongly influence the physical coding sublayer (PCS) implementation, which is one of the new building blocks for 40G/100G Ethernet.
The key difference between the IEEE 802.3ba standard and its predecessor is the introduction of PCS lanes (formerly known as virtual lanes). PCS lanes provide an effective method for handling various parallel optical configurations, and therefore require a comprehensive solution that can easily qualify and integrate both 40G/100G CFP and 10x10 MSA-compliant pluggable optics. Thorough PCS testing is among the critical layer-1/2/3/4 tests needed to ensure that 40G/100G Ethernet equipment and network services can be deployed rapidly and confidently.
Leveraging over a decade of FPGA experience, EXFO has integrated Ethernet (IEEE 802.3ba) and OTN (ITU-T G.709) functionalities into the same module: the FTB/IQS-85100G Packet Blazer. With this upgrade, you will be able to efficiently and cost-effectively share the equipment in the lab, perform field trials, and carry out early deployments. Purpose-built for applications where thorough testing, portability, true ruggedness and ease of use are required, this module offers powerful layer-1/2/3 Ethernet traffic generation and analysis, as well as RFC 2544 with Smart Loopback testing capabilities to stress and validate network elements and services against demanding corner cases.
The FTB/IQS-85100G Packet Blazer also supports OTU3/OTU4 bit-error-rate testing (BERT) and ODU muxing capabilities for 40G/100G transponder and muxponder qualification in network equipment manufacturer (NEM) labs, as well as for optical transport network turn-up in the field. In addition, its FPGA-based architecture ensures rapid and seamless incorporation of updates as the standard is ratified and refined, protecting your testing investment without sacrificing timely support of features and functions.
All existing and newly developed testing capabilities are available via an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) and through software keys for field upgrades. No additional hardware or shipping to the manufacturer is required.

Find out everything you need to know with our 100G/400G testing guide, which provides an overview of high-speed technology, and detailed information on both line-side and client-side 40G/100G system testing, lab qualification, commissioning and turn-up.
Packet optical transport (POT) networks are optical super-highways that use the most advanced technological enablers, from reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexers (ROADMs) to amplifiers—and from very high bit rates to dense wavelength-division multiplexers (WDMs).
When it comes to high-speed transmission, especially when transmitting at 10G, 40G/100G, assessing fiber quality is a must. Once the basic parameters (i.e., loss, ORL, etc.) are under control, the next step is to qualify the fiber and to ensure that it is fit for transporting actual customer traffic. Polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) and chromatic dispersion (CD) optical testing become crucial at high speeds.
As Ethernet is making headway into service providers' networks, Carrier Ethernet testing becomes essential. With its additional operation, administration and maintenance capabilities, Ethernet can now be viewed as a carrier-grade networking technology.

text: Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Dismissal Puts Company's Future At Risk Posted By admin || 7-Feb-2011 The future of Tamarack Resort is uncertain after a federal judge dismissed the company's Chapter 11 bankruptcy case, sending it back to state court where foreclosure proceedings may eventually proceed to a sheriff's sale. Tamarack, which had an offer of $40 million to buy the company in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, is now uncertain if it will survive after the bankruptcy dismissal. Tamarack majority owner J.P. Boespflug lamented the decision. He says keeping the case in Chapter 11 protection offers the clearest and easiest path for disposing Tamarack's assets as a whole while paying at least some money to creditors, including a lender consortium led by Credit Suisse Group that is owed more than $350 million combined. "We were so close - the judge knows that we are so close," Boespflug said, adding he may ask the judge to reconsider. "It's illogical from the interest of all creditors. The judge, quite frankly, is creating a mess." Boespflug is certainly right about one thing, Chapter 11 bankruptcy is often the easiest path for troubled companies to liquidate assets, repay creditors and get a second chance to breathe life into a dying business. The bankruptcy dismissal will now pave the way for asset seizures to take place which could leave many, if not most creditors with no ability to recoup their losses. But some of the creditors in the Tamarack Chapter 11 bankruptcy are glad that the bankruptcy judge made the decision to dismiss the case. Tamarack was accused of incompetency and the inability to manage its own financial affairs. The inability of manage its own affairs would make Chapter 11 bankruptcy inappropriate for the company. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is specifically designed for companies or individuals who have ability to manage their own finances while they repay creditors through the bankruptcy process.

The B-N Groove Presents
Confederate Railroad
Big Boss Twang
The Castle Theatre
209 E. Washington St.
Bloomington, IL, 61701
Doors 7:00 PM / Show 7:45 PM
This event is 21 and over
Confederate Railroad first rolled onto the national country music scene in the early 90s with its unique style and sound. Headed by founder and frontman Danny Shirley, the former backup band for both David Allan Coe and Johnny Paycheck got their big break by signing with Atlantic Records. The first single from their debut album ("Confederate Railroad") was "She Took It Like A Man". It went to No. 26, a preview of what was to come. "The next two singles, "Jesus and Mama" and "Queen of Memphis" went to the top of the charts. Three more huge hits followed, "Trashy Women", "When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back", and "She Never Cried". "Trashy" would lead to a Grammy nomination and become their signature song. That album with six hits and nearly three million sales brought Confederate the Academy of Country Music's Best New Group Award in 1993 as well as numerous nominations from the Country Music Association and the British Country Music Foundation. The second album, "Notorious", produced one of the group's most popular songs "Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind" which became a No. One video as well. "Elvis and Andy" and "Summer in Dixie" would further establish the Railroad as one of the most versatile acts in the business. This album would sell more than one million. Their overal totals are 18 charted hits and five million albums sold. From rowdy country to raw emotion, a Confederate Railroad concert today covers a wide range of feelings. Young people will be there rocking to "Trashy Women", while their parents and even grandparents will likely be singing along to "Jesus and Mama". The band plays 100 or so dates each year. Whatever the venue, they are right at home…be it a fair, a club, or a biker show. Shirley, the lead singer and vocalist, and his mates, Mark Dufresne on drums, Wayne Secrest on bass, Rusty Hendrix on lead guitar and Bobby Randall on steel guitar, fiddle and vocals are obviously having fun right along with their appreciative audience. At the end of each show, the band stays around until every fan who wants an autograph, or to pose with the group for a picture or just say "hello" is taken care of.
Big Boss Twang was founded in October of 2007 as a result of 4 friends and their love of Traditional Country music.
Their sound is a blend of many influences, including: Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, Dale Watson, Dwight Yoakam, Elvis, and Johnny Cash.
Todd Phoenix and Brock Boss alternate lead vocal and harmony duties.
In keeping with their love of Traditional Country, Brock, Todd, & Shane utilize Fender Silverface amplifiers and Telecaster guitars to get their Twangy country sound.
Rick Tackett on bass and Greg Milton on drums make up the rhythm section.

Runner wanting to become a biker
So hey! I have been running for the last few years, and I have been really interested in dual Athlons and I was wondering what you guys recommend. For my first bike, should I get a single speed? If not, what do you recommend?? Thank yall!
Welcome to bikeforums! Multi-speed Time-trial bikes and Road bikes are popular at competitive events. These bike maximize an athlete's performance by keeping the cyclist in a aerodynamic position and offering 18, 20 or 22 gear combinations for a wide speed range.
I would start with a Road bike and install Aero-bars. This is a versatile and fast combination.
Welcome to BF and good luck with the bi's, tri's and TT's!
Hi newbietangerine, I too am new here, an avid runner, and now taking a new stab at bicycling. I just picked up an inexpensive mountain bike that I'm just going to use for light recreation, errands, etc... But already, I feel the itch and am thinking about road bikes! :)
Welcome to this forum and hope you will like it as me.

There are not many authors that I know, who wouldn't jump at the chance to form or join a good writing group. Of course what makes a writing group good, is more than likely found in the eye of the beholder. However, there are some things you should be aware of, or questions to ask when deciding whether or not to join a writing group. And always remember, you can start one of your own if you can't find one that suits you.
- When does the group meet? Obviously being able to attend meetings, and having them at a time that is convenient for you, should be a primary concern when finding a writing group.
- How often does the group meet? How often the group meets, might show the level of commitment from the other members. For instance, if the group only meets every couple of months, and there doesn't seem to be a consistent pattern, the group members may not be in it for the long haul. However, finding a writing group that meets weekly, biweekly or monthly is probably a safer bet.
- Where do they meet? If they are meeting at the library, utilizing a meeting room so that discussion can take place? Or are they meeting at a random table smack dab in the middle of the library? If this is the case, discussion may be at a minimum. Is the group leader a mother of two, always getting up to see what her children are into, or is the noise level too much?
- What genre does the group welcome? Are they genre specific: like romance, sci-fi, fantasy, etc. Or do they welcome all writers?
- What is the purpose of the group? Do they offer critique? Do they offer support and encouragement?
- Who leads the group? Does anyone lead the group? Does everyone take a turn leading the group?
- Are the discussions on topic? Or is there a lot of socialization going on? What is the ratio of the two?
- Does the group have membership requirements? Does the group have membership dues?
- Is the group primarily for critique? Do you ever do any writing within the group? How do you handle passing around the work that needs to be critiqued?
- Does everyone get a chance to speak? Does everyone get a chance to be critiqued? If the group is a large group how many people get their work critiqued per meeting?
Some of these questions might not apply to you. You might have more questions than I offer here. Regardless, it is important when selecting a good writing group, to find out all you can about the group and how they do things.
Can you think of anything else that should be looked at or any questions that could be added?

The List: CNBC First 25 Rebels, Icons and Leaders Part 1
Here is our ranked list of the 25 people we judge to have had the most profound impact on business and finance since 1989, the year CNBC went live. They have disrupted industries, sparked change and exercised an influence far beyond their own companies.
As CNBC embarks on its second quarter-century, it faces a world completely altered from when it started. Then, the Dow was below 2,400, Wal-Mart didn't make the list of America's 500 largest companies and there was no World Wide Web.
Only four U.S. companies had annual revenue of more than $50 billion. Today there are more than 50, including upstarts such as Apple, Microsoft, Amazon and Google. No dictionary contained the words "e-commerce" or "app." A blog was still archaic slang for a servant boy.
Curious as to how we chose the 25? Tyler Mathisen explains the (difficult!) process:
What were we thinking?
Here's how we picked 'em – and why you'll hate the list no matter what.
The beauty, and the beast, of putting together a list like CNBC's First 25 is that you go into the process knowing that no one will be happy when you come out of it. That's because the final product is so totally, exquisitely, infuriatingly … debatable. You just can't win.
Your spouse criticizes you: "How could you possibly bury Martha Stewart at Number 24? She's top 12 for sure." Colleagues you've known for years call you idiotic: "Martha Stewart? Seriously? She's not even top 500!"
Jobs at No. 1 and Gates at No. 2? Or should it be the other way around? After all, there hardly would have been a personal computer revolution without Gates. Yes, you say, but if he hadn't propagated an operating system, somebody else would have. True, but Gates did it.
And even if IBM handed him the ball, he didn't fumble. He built the dominant productivity software of the past quarter-century, Microsoft Office; the paramount browser, Explorer; incubated the world's top travel website, Expedia; and hatched Xbox.
OK, you say, but he just wasn't cool. Cool? Well, that was Jobs. He made elegant products consumers love, and he may have been the best retailer since Sam Walton. (And, hey, while we're at it, what about Walton?
Where's he on your damn list? The answer to that one is easy. We excluded him because he died in 1992 and most of his empire-building predated CNBC's 25-year history.)
But let's talk about Jobs for a minute. The Apple OS never had more than a few points of market share on the desktop and laptop. Jobs didn't put the smart in smartphones. Mike Lazaridis of BlackBerry did.
And the iPod wasn't the first portable music player.Sony's Walkman was, and it had a radio. Philanthropy? Jobs didn't come close to Gates. Fair enough, but he could rock a turtleneck—as well as everything from PCs, to music and movies, to smartphones—with style.
You get the point. Everyone on our First 25, and every ranking in it, can be argued for and against. And that, folks, is the point. A ranking like this one is meant to spur discussion as well as celebrate exceptional achievement.
And, let me tell you, the debates among the members of our advisory panel were every bit as heated as those sure to take place now that the list has been published.
We all swore to keep our deliberations secret. But if I get another email from Jeff Sonnenfeld, senior associate dean at the Yale School of Management, arguing for (oops, I'd better not say), I'm going to leave my entire worldly estate to Harvard.
We made the decision early on to eliminate heads of government and state from our deliberations. This is a list, after all, about business people, not politicians.
It's about the men and women who, for better or worse, have had the most transformative effect on commerce, finance, markets, human behavior and global culture over the past 25 years.
So out went Bill Clinton, Angela Merkel, Jiang Zemin, Hu Jintao, Lee Kuan Yew and Vladimir Putin. In came Oprah.
This not a list of billionaires, though many of the people on it are. Money is not the measure. Revolutionary, or evolutionary, impact is. Hence the third-richest man in the world, Amancio Ortega, founder of the Zara retailing empire and the father of fast fashion, comes in at No. 19.
That's six places above the world's second-richest person, Carlos Slim. No knock on Slim. We just judged Ortega's global impact to be greater.
To be clear: The CNBC First 25 concerns judgment—CNBC's judgment, augmented by our advisory board, based on our coverage of business, markets and world events over the past quarter-century. This was not a popularity contest.
Yes, we gave strong consideration to the votes and suggestions of CNBC's audience. But it was never intended as a business version of "The Voice" or "American Idol."
The list is heavy on technology. And why not? Hasn't the major story of the past quarter-century been the changes wrought by technology? That surely doesn't mean that every tech titan made the First 25.
Michael Dell didn't (a painful late cut for several of us). Neither did South Korea's richest man, Lee Kun-Hee of Samsung, despite swatting aside Sony and needling Apple.
You could argue that Sir Tim Berners-Lee, father of the World Wide Web (sorry Al Gore), deserves not only to be in the top 25—as several of our number did—but to be No. 1, as the Gutenberg of our era. In the end, our collective judgment was that Berners-Lee was less a business leader than a computer scientist who transformed how we share information.
He put a singular mark on history, but others, such as the Google trio of Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Eric Schmidt—collectively No. 4 on our list—Jeff Bezos (No. 5) and Mark Zuckerberg (No. 8) built the Internet economy that Berners-Lee made possible.
Making choices in the world of finance brought some of the advisory board's toughest decisions. Michael Bloomberg made the cut at No. 20. Before he became a politician, he was a titan of finance, a techie and a media guy—affecting three of the defining business trends of the CNBC era. His beautiful box, the Bloomberg terminal, revolutionized trading and markets.
Henry Paulson, a former Goldman Sachs CEO and Treasury secretary, was an immensely worthy contender. He led Goldman, long the whitest of white-shoe Wall Street partnerships, into the modern era as a publicly traded company. As Treasury secretary, he was the Bush administration's point person during the financial crisis of 2008.
For that, some consider him a hero, right alongside former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke. But critics argue that he (and Bernanke, for that matter) was slow to publicly acknowledge the seriousness of the crisis.
Moreover, his tenure at Treasury, while full of tumult and consequence, was a comparatively brief 30 months.
Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase, Charles Schwab, Ned and Abigail Johnson of Fidelity, Laurence Fink of BlackRock and Hugh McColl, the man who broke the barriers to interstate banking and put Charlotte, N.C., on the map as home to more than NASCAR—could easily have been on our final list.
As could have Steven Schwartzman of Blackstone and Henry Kravis of KKR, two stunning grandmasters of private equity.
But we deliberately put ourselves into a straitjacket with just 25 names (and could have filled it just with financiers). We knew we would be forced to make hard calls.
Ultimately, we decided that along with Bloomberg, Jack Bogle, Carl Icahn and Sandy Weill not only had proved to be financial wizards over the past quarter-century but had most changed Wall Street.
While we're on the subject of financial wizardry, what about Michael Milken? He invented some of the financing tools and many of the tactics that made possible the likes of Schwartzman, Kravis and Icahn.
If not for junk bonds, Ted Turner would not have been Ted Turner and Rupert Murdoch would not have been Murdoch.
I confess I pushed for Milken until I became a nuisance. I lost. The panel decided that he was basically an '80s dude, his greatest innovation and influence predating CNBC's 1989 launch.
Which leads me back to my original point: With a list like this one, you just can't win. Oh, yeah—I voted against Martha, too, until I voted for her.
The 25 men and women listed below—from different parts of the world and across different industries—have, for better or worse, been the rebels, icons and leaders in the vanguard of that change.
1 Steve Jobs Apple's iVisionary
2 Bill Gates Microsoft founder and philanthropist

Thanks for a fascinating list of people that, indeed, cross many industries and endeavors. Many years ago I dedicated myself to reading biographies/autobiographies of people I admired as change agents. There are many names on your list that I am not too familiar with. I now foresee myself spending cold Minnesota winter nights by the wood stove with a large stack of new books on the table.

BOSTON (CBS) – Even with most of the attention of the hockey world focused on Toronto and World Cup of Hockey 2016, NHL training camps open Thursday.
The Bruins will report to Warrior Ice Arena for their off-ice testing and physicals and then begin their training camp without their coach Claude Julien, captain Zdeno Chara, best player Patrice Bergeron, top goal scorer Brad Marchand, biggest offseason addition David Backes, No. 1 goaltender Tuukka Rask and young future star David Pastrnak. Yes, camp is going to have a different feel for a few days until everyone comes back from Toronto.
With so much at stake for the Bruins at the outset of their season after two years without making the playoffs, and the challenges of being without their coach and all of their best players, this training camp might be the most interesting in years.
Here's a look at some key issues to be resolved:
1. Chemistry postponed
Gone are the days of Milan Lucic, David Krejci and Nathan Horton (or Jarome Iginla) skating together from the first day of training camp and showing the sort of promise that made Julien keep them together for a whole season. Even if the Bruins wanted to start with Backes or Pastrnak on Krejci's right from the outset, neither will be back in Boston for at least a couple days.
Krejci spoke a couple weeks ago about how chemistry comes easy, but we know that's not true. Any time Krejci has been thrown together with linemates on short notice, there have been mixed results.
It also won't help that after offseason hip surgery Krejci might not be 100 percent healthy until later in camp. The Bruins want to be a four-line team but they can't even be a two-line team without Krejci at full speed and with linemates he can mix with.
As far as the forwards are concerned, this is the biggest issue the Bruins have to address.
2. Kids get really tested
The Bruins' rookies went 2-0 in their tournament over the weekend against New Jersey and Buffalo. Several individuals stood out, including under-the-radar prospect Peter Cehlarik, Sean Kuraly and 2015 first-round pick Jake DeBrusk. These kids have played well in development camps and rookie camp, but now it's time to test their mettle against men.
Even in camp drills, where several young players will get more reps because of the absence of the World Cup players, there should be some spirited competition and maybe even some physicality. Then the exhibition games will be a whole other story.
The young defensemen, including Matt Grzelcyk, Brandon Carlo and Rob O'Gara, will be particularly tested. But returnees like Colin Miller and Joe Morrow will have to show their improved and deserve to be ahead of some of the rookies in the pecking order.
Although there wasn't a lot of roster turnover from last season to this, there might be more vulnerable veterans in the camp battles this year than there have been in a while.
3. What's Mueller got left in the tank?
Overlooked in the hoopla about the kids has been talk about some new veterans that might be able to make an impact, especially if incumbent veterans struggle. Peter Mueller, the No. 8 pick in the 2006 draft, is scheduled to be in camp on a PTO. He once scored 22 goals as a NHL rookie but injuries and other factors slowed his career. Could he be an option for the fourth line, or maybe for a bigger role?
Dominic Moore and Riley Nash are joining the fray to make the Bruins better on the penalty kill and in the grit game. They might also light a fire on some of the younger veterans.
Defenseman John-Michael Liles doesn't count as a newcomer because he was acquired at the trade deadline last season. But he played decent enough with little time to adjust to his new team. After a full training camp, and with his minutes held to a reasonable amount, he might make strides that will make the Bruins back end more respectable. Anything could happen.
