Funeral services were held on Monday, November 29, at Zion Lutheran Church in Viking, with Rev. Luther Peterson officiating.

text: There is an entire back story of early Floyd. If your old enough and remember they always played off nights at the Fillmore East and I always wondered why.After reading Nick Mason's book it was very clear. 1. For what ever reason they always had travel visa hassels and that was an issue. 2.They wanted an entire night even in the early days, they had a lot of gear and they played marathon shows.3. Bill Graham never heard of these guys and was not willing to give them a Friday or Saturday slot when he books 3 bands for 2 shows a night on the cheap.4. So he says I'll rent you the Fillmore on a Tuesday or Wednesday ,by Thursday bands are coming to unload and that's what they did.He got the concessions and Floyd got the gate.Now when I saw them at Roosevelt Stadium for the DSOTM tour as the 2nd set ,they had these light towers that would go up and down and smoke and all the other stuff going on.All these towers were common construction lifts just camoflauged in black fabric.About the YS. show they had rows of generating trucks all the way down Jerome Ave. supplying the power .No plug strip for them .lol

Rep. Paul Ryan's poverty proposal, which would in part punish impoverished Americans for not getting themselves out of poverty on a specific timeline, is based on the conservative myth pushed by right-wing media that blames poverty on individuals' "spirit" and personal life choices. Experts say poverty is the result of systemic inequality and lack of opportunity.
Fox News host Megyn Kelly misinformed her audience by claiming that that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not issued a travel ban over Ukraine, in order to bash President Obama over Israel. In fact, the FAA has banned commercial travel over Ukraine since April.

Original Message
I can not tell you too much about myself, simply because it would easily identify me in the groups I belong.
What I can tell you is that I am an active member of several secret orders, beyond the mainstream regions of Freemasonry into the higher forms of the inner order of Illuminati.
And I have come here to reveal some of the secrets that I feel are of immense importance to all, as well as certain matters that should be for the benefit of everyone and not just us select few.
None of you know anything of what you think you know - not about us, the ones behind the curtains, nor about yourselves. You have been mislead and led astray since before your birth.
The complexity of it all is so vast that it will take time to detail it for you. Thus I will have to start somewhere, and I will come back to add when the occasion lets me. If time allows, I will also answer questions some may have, as long those questions do not incriminate me or reveal for those who knows me from the inside who I am.
Being here at all is risky enough as it is - take what I tell you for what it is and decide for yourselves what you want to do with the information, or whether I am telling you the truth or not.
Let me start with a short introduction of myself, to at least give you the bones without the meat.
My family have been involved with the secret orders as far back in time I have been able to look back in any of our records. I stepped right into the same as soon I was born.
We have close ties with many of the groups and orders most of you will have heard of - and even more of the ones you will never even find the name of. A lot of the Light shines in the Darkness.
The family I come from has a leadership role and a greater importance within these orders. This has given me an unique access to information, understanding, knowledge and greatly guarded secrets that very few are privileged to.
Being in such a position is very rewarding, and you would probably not even believe all the things we oversee and are witness to - not to mention what we experience and are involved with directly ourselves. A lot of it can't be mention, since doing so would endanger my anonymity.
The reason I have decided to come here to open the lid on the door a bit, is because of both the horrific discoveries I have made during my time on the inside, AS WELL as the WONDERFUL discoveries.
Truly a lot can be said, and probably will, but for now in my first attempt at letting you in on the secrets I must detail the utter most important parts.
First of all: You are IMMENSELY deceived. NOTHING is the way you think it is, and not even close to it either. Everything is a lie, and a great hoax put upon you. This includes your own LIFE, your IDENTITY.
Everything around you have been created and put in place to BLIND you from the truth. The Media, is there to deceive you and keep you away from understanding, your job is there to keep you busy and away from discovering your true self, your favorite hobbies and past-time activities have been designed to maintain your business beyond your job to further mislead you from reality, religion is there to hide the truth, technology, science, medicine, all there to derail you from the truth. The person you love, your own family, they are there to keep you away from the truth.
The very Earth under your feet is in place to keep you away from the Truth.
That all may sound preposterous - and I can see why, since it really does sound insane.
But nevertheless, this is the way it really is.
Now this does not mean you are not "real", or that the world, or those things you see around you are not "real". But it does mean that your reality, that which is your everyday, is part of a greater design, spun around you in all its splendor, to maintain you in a level of status quo - to keep you in your current state. Compare it to cows in a field - the field and the farm they live on are real enough, and the cows take it for granted as their everyday life, yet it is still in the end artificially created for the cows to keep them there, as the slaves of the farmer. It is truly a perfect analogy since it is pretty much identical to what is really going on.
In that sense, in YOUR reality, you are the "cows", and the "farmer" is, well, call it the Great Architect of the Universe.
You can also call it the Devil, or Satan - but do NOT call it God.
God did NOT create the World. God did NOT create you. It was a different entity, far from God, in biblical terms you could say it was the "Fallen Angel" mentioned above.
With this I quickly jump through tremendous parts of History, and skip all the important bits in between. We go back to our "present" and Secret Orders - since what I have just mentioned now is one of the MOST guarded secrets of these orders.
And, at the highest level of most orders of any significance this is a well known truth - a truth guarded because of many reasons in itself, but not necessarily for Evil as I will get to in my next post.
It relates to the Secret Orders due to us being in existence since BEFORE the time of the Creation of the illusious world you live within, and the Orders exist on Earth today as the channel that allows for the connection and communication with the Divine, and that which still exists far outside the Spheres of the physical Universe you now experience yourself in.
This is all something I will detail soon, when I have the time to come back to further share some of the secrets I feel must be shared.

Here is a very nice article from the Orange County Resister.
Let's hope she pulls herself up in the free.
Here is a very nice article from the Orange County Resister.
Let's hope she pulls herself up in the free.
^^ Yes, thanks for linking the article, Polymer Bob.
I was very proud of the way Caroline skated her LP last night. Regardless of the marks or placement, how satisfying that must have been! She is truly a fighter.
So was I!
Thanks for sharing.
I was very proud of Caroline too and hope she comes back next season!
I hope Caroline tries something different next season. Nobody seems to know what to do for her though. She has to get a little bit physically stronger somehow, and I think it's not easy with her body.
I hope Caroline is pleased with her performances at Nationals despite her placement.
She didn't get any UR calls in her freeskate, which is a great sign. Those cost her dearly in the short (had she done a fully-rotated 3Lo+2T and 3F, she would've been at least 3-4 places ahead in that segment.
Let's not forget she's still only 19.
I hope she uses the summer to work on her jumps even more, get more speed, and some exciting programs along the lines of her 2008 and 2009 SP that "push" her.
Caroline was amazing and her LP was one of the highlights of the night. She could have easily given up after the short. I know the UR's were there in the short but it has to hurt when you feel like you were an inch away from the top 3 after the short, literally. Her LP was so good and her first double axel, in particular, was such an improvement from what she has been doing in years past.
I think she needs music that pushes her. The slow music does her no favors. I thought the same thing watching Mirai's LP.
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
She seems like a very nice person, and I actually feel really bad for her that her skating career seems to have been born with these massive shortcomings in speed and jump technique. That said, if she truly wants to become relevant compared to the top 10 at Nationals, she's going to have to do things in her training that she's never done before. I'm not sure what has been holding her back from truly getting more power/speed, interesting choreo, etc. into her skating, and by god I'm not saying that is easy to achieve. But for someone who seems to take this very seriously, I have to wonder if she's afraid or somehow resistant to change or pushing herself out of her comfort zone. I'm sure Tammy Gambill has some thoughts on this subject, I'd love to know what her experience w/ CZ was...
I think there may just be some limits to fast a certain person can skate or how high they jump. You look at the young Kostner, Kim or Gold, and they just fly down the rink. Is that because they train so much harder/better than Caroline? I doubt it, they all work hard but some skaters are just built for speed. Caroline has great flexibility, but not so much speed and power. It's a great credit to her that she almost has that 3L-3L rotated, I honestly wish the caller would give it to her, that's such a hard combo and hers are about as good as Lipinski's. (seems a bit unfair that it was instrumental in helping Lipinski win an OGM and Zhang gets clobbered in the marks). She should be proud of how she skated these last two Nationals , her hard work and preserverence really do come through in these performances.
What a joy it was to see Miss Zhang skate two phenomenal programs at US Nationals this past week, complete with the only 3R/3R combo. being done in the world today!
So glad I got to see her skate live at 2010 SA because she's just as phenomenal in person...
The Orange County Register's follow-up on Zhang in their FS article:
An enthusiastic crowd was on its feet early Saturday, rewarding the solid and flowing routine by Brea's Caroline Zhang with a standing ovation. Zhang, the former World junior champion, 12th after a scoring controversy with her short program, finished 11th overall at 161.89.
"She could have decided to lay down and give up when they downgraded the scores and she came back and fought and ultimately she's a fighter," said Peter Oppergard [should be Oppegard], Zhang's coach.
"Randy [Starkman (1960-April 16, 2012)] lived by the same motto as the rest of us. The Olympics isnt every four years, its every single day. He just got it." --Canadian Olympic kayaker Adam van Koeverden
I have assumed that improving power/speed is just a natural challenge for her flexible body. Send her to Tarasova.
She has enough international medals to call it a good career. She should be thinking about school now and moving on with the next phase of her life... Especially because there isn't even any money in skating anymore to have her do show skating as a middle of the pack senior skater..
I think it's wonderful that her parents have supported her dream, but then there may be another side to it. Perhaps her parents want it more for her than they should. She is very smart, and I also hope she takes advantage of those gifts. Does she say she wants to start college in the fall of 2014?
I think the decision to continue with skating or not is up to Caroline and her parents/sponsors. To me she has always needed power and speed. I recall Michelle Kwan going to Irina Rodina early in her career which really helped her develop power. After she left Frank and went to Rafael he chased her around the rink to force her to skate faster - and it worked. Perhaps some lessons with Rafael (not full time) would help with these issues. I know Lake Arrowhead is a 1+hr. drive from LA so maybe that really isn't feasible during certain times of the year.
A lot depends on Caroline and how much work/travel she is willing or able to put into skating.
I thought her FS at Nationals was really very nice and if she chooses to call that her final competitive skate she has nothing to be ashamed of.
Peter Oppegard spoke out about Caroline Zhang's 3Lo<+3Lo<< SP combo (Base Value reduced to 5.40, she received 3.80 points for it) - I posted the IN article link and excerpt in the U.S. Ladies thread yesterday: http://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/show...=1#post3823679
To Oppegard, the problem lies with the way technical panels use slow-motion viewing to analyze the loop, a jump which takes off from a back outside edge without the assistance of a toe pick, and lands on the same back outside edge.
"The toe loop is rewarded more often than the loop jump," Oppegard said. "When you slow down the loop jump, the nature of the take-off is a little further around and it can be considered a round-edge jump. You put your toe in for the toe jump just as far around, maybe further, and because there is a toe in the ice, they tend to say the take-off is clean.
"This edge is a curvy thing; where you start and where you finish on that curve is a little bit subjective. Anyone doing the loop -- especially the triple loop-triple loop, as maybe only Caroline can -- is also leaving herself a little bit vulnerable to the system."
It's Oppegard's hope that the ISU technical committee, which frequently adjusts international judging system guidelines, will re-examine the issue.
"These are very smart people who know skating," he said. "I think some allowances [should be] made for the loop. A level playing ground between the toe and the loop, that's all I'm asking for. Caroline has cheated [the loop-loop] in the past, but there is a pretty strong consensus that she did it quite well in Omaha and it was over-deducted."
"Randy [Starkman (1960-April 16, 2012)] lived by the same motto as the rest of us. The Olympics isnt every four years, its every single day. He just got it." --Canadian Olympic kayaker Adam van Koeverden
Thanks! I've been wondering what her coaches were thinking about Caroline's URs.
I gotta say I have to agree with this. 3 Loop is very tricky in counting rotations."This edge is a curvy thing; where you start and where you finish on that curve is a little bit subjective. Anyone doing the loop -- especially the triple loop-triple loop, as maybe only Caroline can -- is also leaving herself a little bit vulnerable to the system."
It's Oppegard's hope that the ISU technical committee, which frequently adjusts international judging system guidelines, will re-examine the issue.

Clayton Richard exits start after throwing only two pitches

Apple wins preliminary U.S. sales injunction of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
California judge Lucy Koh has ruled in favor of a preliminary injunction against the Galaxy Tab 10.1 requested by Apple, which will result in a halt of sales in the U.S. once Apple posts a $2.6 billion bond to cover potential damages Samsung would suffer. "Although Samsung has a right to compete, it does not have a right to compete unfairly, by flooding the market with infringing products," Judge Koh said. The official ruling goes on to say:
This Court is persuaded by Judge O'Malley's concurrence that the public interest favors an injunction here 'because the record at this stage shows that the D'889 Patent is likely valid and infringed, and there are no other relevant concerns, the public interest is best served by granting a preliminary injunction.
Of course, Samsung was quick to file for an appeal against the preliminary injunction, which is a very real possibility considering Apple's original request for an injunction in December wasn't granted. This injunction request made it through as Apple had since found more prior art and offered arguments relating to an iPad 2 prototype Apple had presented to the patent office. Apple made pretty good progress against the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Germany last fall, which ultimately resulted in Samsung releasing a slightly modified variant - an eventuality that seems likely in the U.S.. Even before the ruling was passed, Koh had scheduled another hearing for Friday, so this is far from a final blow against Samsung (though it is a big one). A proper trial is set to begin on July 30.
I have a hard time imagining that Apple will get this ruling to stick considering it's based on the infringement of a single design patent. Do you guys think Samsung is riding on the coattails of Apple's hard work in design, or are there only so many different ways you can make a tablet look? Do you know anyone who might conceivably mix up a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 with an iPad?
Source: Reuters, FOSS Patents
There are 19 comments. Add yours.
I don't think that the design of the device itself mimics the iPad any more than is strictly necessary due to the fact that tablets are all going to look kind of similar. The packaging and accessories (the charger, cable, box, etc.) are REALLY similar to Apple's. I certainly don't think that that should be enough to warrant a sales injunction on a $600 device, but Samsung needs to rectify this in future models. Their Galaxy family of products is fantastic and should absolutely be able to stand on its own merits without biting design cues on relatively unimportant aspects of the package.
Meh. Day old news. Mainstream media ran this last night.
The news just broke on Twitter.
As an Android user, I'm surprised Android Central hasn't ran the story yet. This is big news!
not it's not. This is the same ole thing over and over and over again. Apple just needs to stop. They make quality products, no doubt, but this is just ridiculous.
How is this ridiculous?? If I make a great product that sells million of unites and some other company rips it off, I will be pissed off too! No one is stealing my quadruple Oreo cookie with a chocolate chip cookie in the middle idea.
How is this big news -- it's last year's tablet, and sales were abysmal even when it was new.
Samsung should have gotten the message by now that copying design doesn't fly with the customers -- not because of patents, but because no one wanted to buy the iPad look-alikes.
Do you guys not realize this is an old tablet. They don't really even push this anymore since its ~ a year old.
It does not matter if it is an old tablet or not. I think the point is, you did something wrong and you pay the consequences. I think it is also a wake up call saying don't try this again or we will come after you again. The question is whether it is a lesson learned. Samsung will try to win this so they can continue to do what they have been doing. Someone needs to put a stop to it, and these patent wars will continue to go on and on and on. I would much rather like to see companies invest this money on new technologies but I suppose you also have to stand your grounds.
So then Samsung makes another tablet, sells it for a year and then it gets banned. What good does that do? NOTHING. There isn't a big market for 1 year old tablets. They aren't going to make the bulk of their $$ >1 year after it has been released. Sounds like a waste of time and money.
You say there is no market for a year old tablet?http://store.apple.com/us/buy/home/shop_ipad/family/ipad/ipad2
If there is a product on the shelf, people will buy it
It's all about legal precedent. If Apple wins the case, they can leverage that win against other infringing products. Including whatever iPad clones Samsung and Google are planing to sell in the future.
Re: "...flooding the market with infringing products."
"Infringing?" Yes. Hence the ban.
"Flooding"? No. Hardly even a trickle. Can't wait to see Google try to spin this at I/O.
Honestly Microsoft should sue Apple for infringing on the tablet concept since THEY were first with tablets.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 looks nothing like an iPad and those who want an iPad are NOT going to buy an Android tablet instead based on looks they are buying it for other reasons.
Having owned the first iPad, a Moto Xoom and will be picking up in the new iPad (3) my technology choice was based on the OS, function and not how it looked.
Apple needs to get paste the lawsuit cycle based on a rectangle.
This is just sad. The TRUTH is there has only ever been one major brand tablet that ever even remotely resembled an iPad, the TouchPad. Of course, despite that design being know for six months prior to its launch, Apple never even attempted to move to bar it from the market.
The issue here is that Apple is afraid of Samsung offering differing options that have market potential, so they are using what ever trick they can to try to prevent potential competition.
Unfortunately apple will continue with its lawsuits, seeing that they had been granted the patent for rotating and zooming into documents along with scrolling on a touchscreen.
They entire patent system is total BS, especially when it comes to software patents.
Maybe Apple should stop spending so much on their legal team and start innovating again...
Regardless of who wins, the customers still lose.
What most people don't realize is that if you patent something, it's legally required that you defend it to the fullest extent. If not, you give up all rights and iterations to that patent. If one person (company) infringes on your patent and you allow it, then others are free to follow suit.
Apple is just doing what they are legally obliged to do.
That's trademark, not patent. You can sit on patents and sue willy-nilly if you like.
Yet another example of why I have grown fed up with Apple and will do what I can to avoid giving them any more of my money. I've already sold my iPhone and if Windows 8 is a stellar product, I will ditch my MacBook Pro as well.

Bring on the bass. Everywhere.
What do most iPod docks lack? Besides a free app that gives you a million dollars with the press of a touchscreen (this one lacks that too, sadly), most docks lack bass. Unless that dock is the Yamaha PDX-11. With the PDX-11, we're not talking about muddled, boomy bass. We're talking about room-filling, heart pounding bass that makes your audio sound amazing. A 4" subwoofer works together with a 1/8" tweeter to produce full range audio from your favorite digital music device. Plus, while it may look good on a shelf at home, this beauty isn't satisfied just sitting around the house. Its rugged design is engineered for use in the great outdoors. Add six AA batteries, and grab the sturdy metal handle, and you're ready to go. Rock out whether it's a short trip for a picnic in the park, or an epic ride to your favorite camping spots. You'll get amazing audio, and best of all, the batteries also keep your iPod or iPhone charged.

Included with your purchase are: PDX-11 dock, remote control
Great Sound, Extremely Portable and Super Simple (January 08, 2012)
|Ease of Use
|Overall Rating
Reviewed By: Todd G. - Detroit, MI
I purchased a PDX-11 as a smaller, easier to transport alternative to my old JVC Kaboom box. If you dont remember those, they produce actual, significant bass -- but weigh 23lbs and are the size of a medium Schnauzer. In hindsight I was asking for the impossible given the PDX-11s much smaller size and weight, and I was ready to return it after the first few hours when I found the bass lacking at high volumes. Then, after several days of listening at more moderate levels, it won me over. In fact, I didn't realize how good it was until two things happened 1. At a friend's house they were entertaining with a similarly priced, if fancier, iPod dock that had me cringing inside because of how tinny it sounded in comparison. 2. At moderate, most-of-the-time, volumes, the PDX-11 has a really rich, room filling sound that belies its size. Throw in the fact that it's super portable, very easy to operate, sports some cool aesthetics and it's a keeper. At risk of sounding like a paid endorser, I'll just mention there is some apparent electronic trickery going on at high volumes, about 90 percent and up, wherein the low frequencies are increasingly cut. This is probably what caused my bad first impression about the lack of bass. Also, it would be awful nice if it were rechargeable instead of requiring 6 AAs. Overall, the PDX-11 strikes a great balance. It offers great sound wherever you take it, and at this price you will not be afraid to take it anywhere.

South African Olympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius appears at the Magistrate Court in Pretoria on February 22, 2013. Pistorius battled to secure bail as he appeared on charges of murdering his model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp on February 14, Valentine's Day. South African prosecutors will argue that Pistorius is guilty of premeditated murder in Steenkamp's death, a charge which could carry a life sentence. Pistorius denies the charge, saying that he shot 29-year-old Steenkamp repeatedly through a locked bathroom door in the dead of night by accident, having mistaken her for a burglar.
