Jack Was Every Inch A Sailor
Something for the weekend. My late mother's homeland, Newfoundland, has a lively musical heritage, and Jack Was Every Inch A Sailor is a fine example of the rollicking songs that the Newfies have produced.
'Twas twenty-five or thirty years since Jack first saw the light,
He came into this world of woe one dark and stormy night;
He was born on board his father's ship as she was lying to,
'Bout twenty-five of thirty miles southeast of Baccalieu.
Oh, Jack was every inch a sailor,
Five and twenty years a whaler;
Jack was every inch a sailor,
He was born upon the bright blue sea.
When Jack grew up to be a man he went to the Labrador,
He fished in Indian Harbour where his father fished before;
On his returning in the fog he met a heavy gale,
And Jack was swept into the sea and swallowed by a whale.
Oh, the whale went straight for Baffin Bay, 'bout ninety knots an hour,
And every time he'd blow a spray he'd send it in a shower;
Oh, now, says Jack unto himself, I must see what he's about,
He caught the whale all by the tail and turned him inside out.
3 Responses to Jack Was Every Inch A Sailor
My grandmother was from Newfoundland! Her maiden name was Warren.
Hooray for Newfoundland! I spent only a few weeks there, and want very much to return! What a great people — good and strong and hospitable! Canada is God's second-favorite nation!
Newfoundland is a wonderful place with some of the most generous people on Earth.

No. 46 Blue Raiders to face No. 22 Michigan in NCAA tournament
Teams will square off at Ole Miss May 11-13May 1, 2012 · Athletic Communications
Head coach Jimmy Borendame has the Blue Raiders making their 11th NCAA Championship appearance. (Bradley Lambert)
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - The No. 46 Middle Tennessee men's tennis team will face No. 22 Michigan in opening round of the 2012 NCAA Men's Tennis Championships as the field of 64 was announced on Tuesday. The Blue Raiders and Wolverines will square off on Saturday, May 12 at 9 a.m. CT at the Palmer/Salloum Tennis Center on the campus at Ole Miss in Oxford, Miss.
"We've been talking about how we want to win the first round, so we're looking at this as a great match and chance to make some noise at the national level," head coach Jimmy Borendame said. "Michigan is a tough opponent, but we're aiming to become a top 30 program and this is a step toward reaching that goal."
In addition to the Blue Raiders and Wolverines, the 13th-seeded Rebels and Binghamton Bearcats round out the pod. The winners will meet in the second round on Sunday, May 13 at 1 p.m., which will also be played in Oxford.
MT and Michigan have met twice previously, with both contests as part of the O'Charley's Invitational in Knoxville, Tenn. The Wolverines earned a 6-1 win in the spring of 1995, while the Blue Raiders claimed a 5-2 victory over Michigan, ranked No. 39 at the time, in 1997.
MT earned its 11th NCAA Championship berth and third in the past four years after winning the Sun Belt Championship title for the second consecutive year. With a 19-7 overall record, MT has amassed the most wins since 1997 when the Blue Raiders finished 24-5.
MT has only dropped two matches since March 6, a 16-match stretch, with both of those losses coming to nationally ranked opponents. The Blue Raiders have defeated seven nationally ranked teams this season and have won 11 of their last 12 matches, losing only one point in the last three matches.
Ben Davis has been impressive throughout his sophomore campaign, leading the Blue Raiders in the top slot. A two-time Sun Belt all-conference honoree, Davis has reeled off 11 consecutive singles victories for a 25-8 overall and 17-4 dual record. Senior Matthew Langley has delivered a solid season as well, posting a 24-13 overall and 17-8 dual record, in addition to earning his second straight Most Outstanding Player honor at this year's Sun Belt tournament.
"It will be a big matchup between Ben and Evan King (in the top spot)," Borendame said. "It will really come down to two through six because the first one will be a flip."
Newcomers Christoph Lang and Ettore Zito have been key in the middle of the lineup, primarily playing at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively. Lang is 17-9 overall and 15-8 in dual action, while Zito has a 24-11 and 13-7 dual record.
In doubles action, Marlon Brand and Yannick Born have primarily held the top spot, combining for a 12-10 record. The all-conference duo of Davis and Lang hold a 15-10 overall and 13-9 dual record. Langley and Zito round out the doubles teams with a 16-13 overall and 12-8 dual mark.
Michigan enters the tournament with a 16-6 record. The Wolverines are led by Evan King, ranked No. 7 nationally. King has won 15 consecutive matches and holds a 32-6 overall record, including a 20-2 dual mark. King and partner Shaun Bernstein rank 29th in doubles with a 21-12 overall and 13-9 dual mark.

Staff-recommended reading from the
KPL catalog.
How profound! That Maya Angelou's last book would be His Day Is Done! Like Nelson Mandela, Maya Angelou, the "global renaissance woman", has been a crusader for many. For me, her life has paralleled Mandela's. She, too, has opened many doors and as she says in the book about Mandela she has enlarged many hearts with tears of pride.
Though this is a small book of poetry, it makes an awesome footprint
and melts a little bit of your heart. And now we can say Her Day is Done.
I heard a story on Michigan Radio yesterday that was about the future of medicine, and it reminded me of this book. The future of health care, as imagined by this author, is basically this: people take DNA tests at home to figure out what's wrong with them. Meanwhile, the government deregulates the pharmaceutical industry (political argument), which allows them to create a drug for every specific thing that's wrong with people (molecular medicine). Then, armed with my detailed knowledge about what's wrong with me, I go to Walmart and buy the exact drug that I need. And, lucky for me, there's a generic version (economic argument)—cheap! And, the author thinks, this solves the problem of expanding health care costs—we cut out the very expensive middle-man—doctors and hospitals (which he calls "helpless care"). That's the nutshell (oversimplified) version.
Recently I talked to a person who actually makes drugs for a large pharmaceutical corporation. I asked him "do you think drug companies are too regulated?" His answer was complex. First, he partly disagreed with this book—he said they are not too regulated. Instead of getting rid of the FDA, he said they need more people on staff; expand it. He also mentioned that the FDA needs to "get into the 21st Century," which agrees precisely with this book. They are using outdated science (read the book for details) which slows down drug production.
When Saroo was five years old, he became separated from his older brother and lost on a train in India that took him about a thousand miles from his small village. With a limited vocabulary making it difficult to properly communicate who he was and where he was from, and unable to trust most people he encountered, he spent several weeks surviving on the streets of Calcutta alone, until he eventually landed in an orphanage and was adopted by a family in Australia. Twenty-five years later, studying satellite images on Google Earth, he was able to locate his village. Saroo Brierley's biography A Long Way Home begins with Saroo returning to his small village for the first time since he was lost as a small child, finding his tiny former home, and asking current neighbors if anyone knows his mother, brothers, or sister. Then a man says, "Come with me. I'm going to take you to your mother."
I don't know yet exactly how his story ends, as I am only halfway through the book. I am almost to the photo spread in the center of the book and I must admit I have peeked ahead. I am completely engrossed in this book and can't wait to finish it. It is just an astounding story.
Library of Congress American Folklife Center: an Illustrated Guide…the title sounds bland, but the book/CD set is anything but! It covers a wide cross-section of folk art and folk lore in the United States.
Most amazing is the accompanying CD. With 35 tracks in all, there are songs from all over the U.S., including a song sung by Zora Neale Hurston, storytelling, personal interviews with many different people about aspects of daily living and the impacts of war and slavery. Some recordings are over 100 years old. Altogether they demonstrate the richness and variety of cultural experience in our country. This would be a great teaching tool to help bring an American history topic to life for your students.
When you hear the phrase "welfare queen," what do you think of? Although technically speaking the phrase itself - welfare queen - isn't racist, I think we all know it actually is. Indeed, it was meant to be, by the politician who carefully created the myth. This book is about the history of such language. Specifically, it's about how politicians use this language to gain votes by creating fear, by focusing demographically, by dividing smaller groups from bigger ones. As for the three main targets, we are talking about African Americans, Latinos, and Muslims.Although the author mostly blames Republicans and Fox News for racial politics, he does blame the Democratic Party too (he is not too kind to Clinton, for example, and he criticises Obama's strategy when it comes to race). Turns out the insatiable thirst for votes is bipartisan. But the major theme throughout the book is how the Republican Party specifically and intentionally became the white man's party in the late 1960's, beginning with the so called "Southern Strategy," which was summarized rather brutally by Lee Atwater, a Republican strategist:
"You start out in 1954 by saying, 'Nigger, nigger, nigger.' By 1968 you can't say 'nigger' — that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites."
This is a complex book on racism and politics in America.
In this book we received last fall, Smithsonian Institution Under Secretary for History, Art, and Culture Richard Kurin provides a wealth of information regarding 101 objects held by that museum. At 762 pages, this publication was no small effort, I am sure. Organized by historical era, the author provides photographs and commentary on such items as the Appomattox Court House furnishings, Abraham Lincoln's hat, a bugle from the U.S.S. Maine, Alexander Graham Bell's telephone, Thomas Edison's light bulb, a Ford Model T, Helen Keller's watch, Louis Armstrong's trumpet, a World War I gas mask, Dorothy's ruby slippers, a Berlin Wall fragment, Neil Armstrong's space suit, an RCA television set, and a door from one of the fire trucks that was at the scene of 9/11 in New York City. This is a quality publication from a very fine establishment.
Recently I discovered a new author. Her name is Bich Minh Nguyen, a Vietnamese immigrant who came to this country in 1975, when she was just a few months old, with her family on one of the last boats out of the country before the war really heated up. She has since taught at Purdue University in the area of fiction and creative non-fiction. Her book that I found most enjoyable is, Stealing Buddha's Dinner. It's a memoir of her family eventually settling in Grand Rapids, and how each of them, a father, grandmother, sister, and a couple uncles adapt as outsiders and struggle to fit into a very Dutch community. The story takes the sisters from a young age through their school years and how they go off in different directions. The grandmother is the rock of the family as she hangs on to her Vietnamese customs. And the father is a hard worker, but often distances himself from the family.
This book was selected as the "Great Michigan Read" for 2009-2010. This is a program similar to our own "Reading Together" event held every year where a book is picked and the whole community reads it, but in this case there are many programs around the whole state connected with the chosen book. Not only was the story interesting, but you would like it if you are familiar with the Grand Rapids area as there are many references to the city. This book is available in print and audio at KPL.
The World According to Bob is the sequel to the NYT bestseller A Street Cat Named Bob by author James Bowen. It is a well written and much anticipated book worthy of becoming another hit for the James and Bob duo.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with their tale, here is a quick recap. Two years prior to the writing of this second work, James Bowen was a down on his luck, recovering addict who happens to find a ginger/orange cat with open wounds on his legs and body. The two form an instant bond, and although James assumes that the cat he names Bob will return to the streets after he nurses him back to health, Bob has other plans. He steadfastly refuses to leave James' side, following him wherever he goes about town.
As the saying goes "cats choose you and not the other way around", and it was certainly true in this case.
The pair become inseparable, existing on the streets of London, each one helping the other heal the wounds of their mutually troubled past. James gives Bob companionship, food, and a place to crash, and in return Bob gives James new hope and a purpose in life. James learns to appreciate the minute things of life – his threadbare flat, his job selling a street magazine called "The Big Issue," and now his newly arrived feline friend.
While the first book documents their first meeting and their lives in the early part of their relationship, this sequel delves further into what their life was like then, the people they met, (both good and evil), and the many experiences they shared along the way. It also goes into explaining how the first book came to be.
In September 2010, a reporter from the Islington Tribune interviewed James and took the famous photo of Bob perched on his shoulder. A few days later, there appeared a poignant article about James' past and how he and Bob met, titled: "Two Cool Cats...the Big Issue Seller and a Stray Called Bob."
Soon thereafter, a major London publisher approaches the duo about a possible book deal. James does not expect this book about himself and his stray cat to become a big hit. Rather, he thinks that it would end up being a nice little one-time windfall. But then events start indicating otherwise.
One day, completely unannounced, Sir Paul McCartney and his family stop by the street corner where they work selling the magazine to admire Bob. Instead of the little handful of people that James expected to be at the first book signing, over 300 show up, and all 200 copies available sell out in the first half hour. In addition, James and Bob are treated as celebrities with photographers and a television camera crew in attendance.
Having been translated into 26 languages, the book becomes an international bestseller. And for the first time in their lives, James and Bob become financially secure. No, Bob and James did not become millionaires, but they are able to live a comfortable existence with James enjoying having some money in the bank and even paying taxes like a true member of society. He also enjoys being able to give something back to Blue Cross, the animal charity that was so kind to both of them during their struggles in earlier years.
The first book also produced other positive windfalls. It greatly improved the relationship James had with his parents. And it also seems to have had an impact on people's attitudes to London's "Big Issue" sellers and the homeless in general. Many folks wrote to James to express their awareness of homeless people, and many others have stated that the book gave them an incentive to make a special point of engaging the homeless in a conversation instead of simply ignoring their plight.
The story of James and Bob seemed to connect with people who were facing difficult times in their own lives, while others expressed a newly gained strength from animals' ability to heal human psyches.
With their account, these two cool cats touched the hearts, minds and lives of many, many others. And that may be the best windfall of all, for all of us.
Leon Leyson was number 289, the youngest on the list. The list that would eventually mean life for more than a thousand Jews. Leon was Number 289 on Schindler's list. His powerful memoir, The Boy on the Wooden Box tells his story to the young people of today what it was like surviving the Holocaust. The reader sees this horrific time through the eyes of a child. His youthful perspective brings a powerful message of survival and humanity. Leon was only a boy during WWII, spending most of his years from 10-19 in Jewish ghettos, work, concentration and displaced persons camps. The hunger, loss, pain and suffering are real. Separated for months at a time from his family, Leon found the will to survive inside of him. If you are a reader at 40 or a child at 10 reading this book, you will feel the struggle. You will hold your breath as the family is forced to separate. You will wonder how evil can exist. You will wonder if Leon ever sees the faces again of his brothers. Share this book with your children or students.
I think the dedication page is its own recommendation for reading this book: "To my brothers, Tsalig and Hershel, and to all the sons and daughters, sisters and brothers, parents and grandparents who perished in the Holocaust. And to Oskar Schindler, whose noble actions did indeed save a "world entire." - Leon Leyson
I first heard about Dee Williams and tiny houses in the fall of 2010, when I worked at a public library in New Hampshire. Because she knew I'd lived in housing cooperatives for several years and was interested in simplicity and sustainable living, one of my coworkers shared this article from Yes!, a magazine to which our library had recently subscribed. Though fascinated with the idea of tiny house living, I couldn't imagine what life in 84 square feet would actually be like. So when I read earlier this year that Williams wrote a book about her tiny house experience, I couldn't wait to read all about it.
After I learned about Dee and her tiny house, I read Little House on a Small Planet, the only small house book I could get my hands on back in 2010. More recently, information on and interest in tiny houses has exploded - a google search for 'tiny houses' yields over 20 million results! - and I've since spent possibly one thousand hours on the internet reading about tiny houses and the people who inhabit them. I've learned that tiny housers aren't unified in their reasons for tiny living. Some people are interested in living a more sustainable life, using fewer resources and decreasing their impact on the planet. Others are attracted to tiny house living for financial reasons - it's possible to live mortgage-free in a tiny house. Still others want to downsize and simplify their life, focusing on what is truly important to them. This was Dee's motivation, after being diagnosed with congestive heart failure. The Big Tiny chronicles her tiny building adventure and offers insight into day-to-day tiny living. The book's tone is charmingly conversational; I felt like I was sitting next to Dee on her porch, listening to her story straight from her mouth.
If, like me, you can't get enough of tiny houses, check out the new documentary, Tiny: A Story About Living Small, which follows the process of building a tiny house and features interviews with several tiny housers, including Dee Williams.

Volleyball and swimming are now my family's sports of choice but I thought revisiting this soccer story from a few years past was appropriate, given the time of year.
I really like soccer.
After a dozen seasons I won't pretend I know that much about it, but I love it. I feel fairly confident in understanding that the player positioned in front of the big net is the goalie, and I definitely get the "offense" and "defense" concepts. It's the half-back, forward and wing thing that needs more study. "Striker" and "sweeper" spark my interest, but only because they sound cool and paint a vivid picture in my mind.
My devotion to the game stems more from the people that join me as we witness the weekly drama of our children's struggle to get that multi-colored ball going in the right direction more times than the other team—yes, other soccer parents—people that are my Seasonal Friends.
Making friends in the suburbs relies heavily on having children (In fact, I've often thought that a single person seeking solitude would find the 'burbs to be the perfect hiding spot as invisibility and complete anonymity is practically guaranteed). Inevitably, there is a lot of contact with the parents of your child's friends. When children are young, the weekly "play date" offers some personal control as it's only an hour or so. OR even better, you drop your kid off at the host house and escape for some "me" time.
It's when seasonal sports take the place of the play date that one must be more careful. Friendships hinge on a draft selection process or lucky team placement. All those practices, tournaments, games and team parties can add up to either having a great time with people you like or praying nightly for weather cancellations and a short season. A lot of times you need these people if proximity and logistics translates into carpooling possibilities. Aloof avoidance can work against you if a transportation issue arises. It is most definitely a balancing act.
I have been extremely fortunate. For nearly six years, the core of my daughter's soccer team has played together, two seasons a year. We've watched our girls grow up together, chatted about mutual milestones and commiserated on any number of subjects. I really LIKE these mislabeled "soccer moms." New families joined the team over the years and I like them too.
Now the team is breaking up. As they should, the kids are going in different directions—trying new things. The girls will still be socializing with their friends in school and keeping in touch with constant texting and tweeting. But What About Me? I don't tweet. "LOL" doesn't replace hearing a boisterous laugh and a good "OMG" will never replace the real thing.
C.S. Lewis, on writing about friendship notes that "friends look in the same direction." Watching our kids play soccer, that was a given—all eyes on the field (Still engrossed in conversation, of course, but all eyes on the field).
I know, with these friends, no matter where our kids go, we'll be looking in the same direction off the field as well.

By Al Lewis
DENVER (MarketWatch) — A guy storms into a Wells Fargo Bank branch in Aurora, Colo., wearing a beekeeper's mesh.
He blasts an air horn, waves a pistol and forces three tellers and several customers to the floor.
He makes a withdrawal of $25,830 from several teller drawers, and then makes his getaway on a bicycle.
He's doesn't notice the GPS device stashed in the cash. The Aurora police keep a fix on him as he pedals away. Buzz...buzz...buzz...
At first he moves slowly like a blip in a video game. Then his pace accelerates — buzz-buzz-buzz — as he jumps into a vehicle parked at an unoccupied home.
Police set up a roadblock. In fact, they completely surround a busy intersection, locked and loaded. They yank dozens of innocent people out of their cars and cuff them on the pavement as they hone in on the Beekeeper Bandit.
Some of these handcuffed bystanders are as frightened as the victims in the bank. Some wonder what happened to their civil rights. But this is the Orwellian nightmare that GPS technology has delivered, so deal. We must catch the bank robber, you see, just as we must catch the terrorists at the airport. It is in everybody's best interest these days to be detained and searched.
Within 17 minutes of the robbery, police pin down a white Ford Expedition in the intersection they have commandeered. Their strategy, for whatever constitutional questions it raises, works. It is just not going to be easy robbing banks anymore.
Inside the Expedition, police find a Cherry Creek High School bag stuffed with the robber's clothes and the cash he stuffed in his pockets. There is also a bag used in the sport of figure skating, a Glock 17 9mm semiautomatic and a Walther P22 semiautomatic with loaded magazines, hollow-point bullets, paper shooting-range targets, various disguises, a violin, and, of course, a beekeeper's mesh and an air horn.
This was June 2. Four days earlier, more than 1,000 protesters surrounded Wells Fargo's downtown Denver office, complaining that the giant bank doesn't pay its fair share of taxes and routinely abuses homeowners through its reckless foreclosure practices. Wells Fargo, long drowning in legal, social and political issues, has helped inspire the soap-box term, "bankster." I am waiting for a symmetrical headline that reads, "Bank Robber Robs Robber Bank."
Fortunately, it looks like GPS technology will keep bank robbers from achieving the populist glory they once achieved in lower-tech times. But it is still amazing when an average middle-class, middle-aged American decides to rob a bank.
Police allege the man they pulled out of the Ford Expedition was Christian Paetsch, a 45-year old music teacher who taught at several area schools. Court documents state Paetsch has no prior criminal record, no history of mental illness, and no drug nor alcohol problems.
Final arguments in Roger Clemens trial
Federal prosecutors urged a jury to convict baseball legend Roger Clemens, saying that as unpleasant as the task may be, he should be found guilty of lying to Congress about alleged steroid use. Devlin Barrett has details on The News Hub. Photo: AP.
He has a wife and a 19-year-old daughter. His daughter is a champion figure skater who placed 10th with her partner in the 2009 U.S. Figure Skating Championships. From here, you can imagine the deep ties Paetsch has to his community, including skater moms, esteemed colleagues and music students, several of whom wrote letters to a federal magistrate on his behalf.

Broken Hope Buries The Hatchet With Deicide
After a series of online posts and interviews attacking each other following the end of the No Salvation tour, Broken Hope and Deicide have reached out to each other, made apologies, and mended friendships. Broken Hope comments:
"Glen Benton, Shaun Glass, and Jeremy Wagner have been good friends for 20 years and the blow-up in El Paso was completely unnecessary and the situation could have been rectified if all parties talked it out as friends.
"Moreover, there were some very low-blows lobbed in an effort to maim Glen Benton, and a number of those words were very unfair and very immature, so to that end, we apologize.
"That said, both bands have extended olive branches to each other in order to retain their longtime friendships, and to rise above all the worthless drama, finger-pointing, and scandalous fallout that's plagued both bands.
"We're glad to once again have Benton's friendship and to have Deicide as brothers. FRIENDSHIP and MUSIC are ALL that matters here.
"We ask all fans to please embrace our effort to revive our friendship with Glen and Deicide, and as we all take a higher, more positive road. "

Sunday Old School: Deicide
With Christmas two days away, it's more than likely that by now, we've all seen the "Keep Christ in Christmas" stickers/posters/statuses on Facebook, but most non-believers are well aware of Christmas being a Christian festival and don't want to remove Jesus from this time of the year. However, if there's one band that seems intent on removing Jesus from everything, it's one of Florida's many legendary death metal bands, Deicide. Deicide were formed in the city of Tampa in July 1987, initially under the name Amon, by vocalist/bassist, Glen Benton and guitarist Brian Hoffman, who soon recruited his brother, Eric to be the band's second guitarist. With the lineup rounded out by drummer Steve Asheim, the group recorded an eight track demo entitled, "Feasting the Beast." After gigging sporadically around their home city, the band recorded a second demo, "Sacrificial" at Morrisound Studios with producer, Scott Burns, a place and man who would go on to be instrumental in the development of death metal.
Following the recording, Amon changed their name to Carnage and began performing live more regularly. Very soon, Carnage, or rather, Benton, gained notice from Roadrunner Records, when he reportedly barged into the office of an A&R man and aggressively demanded that they sign his group. The next day, Carnage were offered contracts by the label, but were urged to make a name change, leading them to settle on their current moniker, Deicide. They teamed up with Scott Burns again to record their self-titled, debut album, which was released in 1990. The album went on to become one of the best selling death metal albums of all time, being listed by Soundscan as the second highest shifting unit of the genre, behind the third Morbid Angel album, "Covenant." They followed this effort two years later with, "Legion," a much more ambitious album, which focused more the technical area of death metal. It was well received by fans, but was met with a mixed reception from critics, and only the song, "Dead but Dreaming" would go on to feature prominently in future live sets. More...
Deicide Members Record Dayglo Abortions Cover
Steve Asheim (Order Of Ennead), Glen Benton, and Jack Owen (Ex-Cannibal Corpse) of Deicide joined Cannibal Corpses's Rob Barret to record a cover track that will be included on an upcoming Dayglo Abortions tribute compilation.
The cover will be mixed by producer/engineer/manager Rob Shallcross and was recorded at DEG Entertainment Studios in St Petersburg, FL. The tribute compilation, presented by Cruzar Media, is being produced by Shallcross and is slated for release early next year. Last month 3 Inches of Blood also recorded a Dayglo Abortions cover track with Rob Shallcross that will appear on the compilation.
Earlier this year Cruzar Media and intergalactic shock rockers Gwar teamed up to bring fans a tribute to the Dayglo Abortions 1993 anti-censorship anthem "Isn't This Disgusting," which was recorded by the late GWAR guitarist Cory Smoot (aka 'Flattus Maximus') at his Karma Productions studio in Virginia. "Isn't This Disgusting" is being released in memory of the late Cory Smoot and all proceeds from the single will go to the Smoot Family Fund. Donations to the fund can be made at this location.

Pit Stories: Vampire Nazi Boot Stomp at Deicide
Each week Metal Underground.com offers our readers a new Pit Story. Usually, these tales originate from band members. This time, however, I'm going to recount one of the bloodiest, most violent pits in my twenty years of attending metal concerts. Skinheads gathered in hundreds at concerts in Detroit during 1995-1996. When a band finished a song, a sea of arms extended outward forming the Nazi salute, "Sieg Heil." The huge number of shaved, white skulls marked a stark contrast to the mostly African American environments outside of venues such as Harpos and Saint Andrews Hall.
The racism was not the scariest aspect of these shows for those in attendance. Skinheads flailed knees and elbows in the pit, often leading to fellow moshers leaving the circle with bloody noses or worst—being knocked down and stomped by lead-weighted boots. The violence at those shows has never been duplicated at any venue I have attended across the country. I will never forget the first time I experienced this chaos: More...
Dew-Scented Confirmed For Summer Breeze
This year's Summer Breeze festival will be taking place from August 16th - 18th, with full details available at the festival's website here. The organizers of Summer Breeze have now issued the following announcement about confirming new bands:
"Since the release of their amazing breakthrough album 'Inwards', Dew-Scented have been at the forefront of European thrash metal. Since then, the cool bunch led by frontman Leif Jensen have been producing fantastic albums full of unstoppable riff power and overwhelming intensity at nicely regular intervals, cementing the band's excellent reputation time and again. In 2012, Dew-Scented aim at kick-starting their career with an entirely new line-up – with the exception of band boss Leif – and the fantastic new album 'Icarus', and are gearing up to shatter the Summer Breeze Open Air into small pieces. We are stoked to welcome the indestructible machine called Dew-Scented at our festival once more. Get thrashed!
"When Agrypnie played the Summer Breeze festival in 2008 for the first and only time so far, they were booked as consolation for all those who were mourning the recent disbanding of Nocte Obducta. Four years, one studio album and one EP later, the Hessians have made a career for themselves, having now reached the same level as the aforementioned group. Their new studio album is still being recorded as we speak, but their last EP 'Asche' was already an announcement for big things to come in the realm of post black metal. Expressive, multi-faceted, melancholic, dynamic – all these attributes fit Agrypnie like a glove and are underlined by the fact that their songs don't ever become predictable or interchangable. One of the most exciting bands our scene has to offer nowadays."
The Summer Breeze 2012 bill now looks like: More...
More Bands Confirmed For Bloodstock 2012
The Bloodstock 2012 organizers have issued the following announcement about confirming more bands to appear at this year's festival:
"After last week's headliner announcement - where we revealed the mighty Machine Head will be letting fans pick the songs at their first ever UK festival headline slot - Bloodstock and Machine Head are now ready to take requests.
"If you head to Facebook you can now submit your suggestions via a poll. Each fan can pick five songs from Machine Head's incredible debut 'Burn My Eyes,' and the five most popular tracks will be performed at Catton Hall this summer.
"Bloodstock can also reveal a further three acts for the Sophie Stage and one for the Ronnie James Dio Stage. Headlining the Sophie Stage on Thursday night, raucous rockers Viking Skull bring their loud and proud metal to Bloodstock, alongside Belfast metalheads Sweet Savage. Hotly tipped newcomers Death Valley Knights show why in just a few short months their powerful metal has earned them a much coverted spot at Britain's most metal festival, and finally Canada's Kobra & The Lotus make their Bloodstock debut opening the Ronnie James Dio Stage on Sunday."

TOWSON, Md. - Facing one of the top teams in the nation for the second consecutive week, the Tigers will travel to William & Mary on Saturday to play the fifth-ranked Tribe on Saturday afternoon at Zable Stadium at 1:30 p.m.
The Tigers, who are coming off a "closer than the score would indicate" loss to defending national champion Richmond on Saturday, will be seeking their first-ever win against the Tribe. William & Mary (7-1, 4-1) has won all six meetings between the schools.
The Towson-William & Mary game will be broadcast back to the Baltimore area on WNST-Radio (1570 AM) with Spiro Morekas and Tom Judd calling the action.
Under the direction of first-year Coach Rob Ambrose, the injury-riddled Tigers threw a scare into top-ranked Richmond on Halloween before falling, 42-14. The Spiders were forced to overcome a 14-13 third quarter deficit to win their 17th game in a row.
After the Tigers took a 14-13 lead on a 12-yard run by freshman quarterback Tommy Chroniger with 10:54 left in the third quarter, the Spiders came to life and scored the final 29 points of the game. During one stretch of the third period, the Spiders scored 22 points in 2:33 as they took advantage of two turnovers.
"For two-and-a-half quarters, we were doing what everyone else in the country thought was completely and utterly impossible," said Ambrose. "Again, we made some slight errors and they become monstrous errors when you play the best of the best. I am extremely proud of our players and coaches."
Now 2-6 overall and 1-4 in the Colonial Athletic Association, the Tigers will need another great effort when they face William & Mary this week.
"Once again, we are playing the best of the best," Ambrose says. "It seems like this is what you face on a weekly basis in the CAA. We won't know which of our injured players will be available until later in the week. But we will work hard in practice and we will prepare well and we'll give it our best effort."
In recent weeks, injuries have forced the Tigers to improvise on their offensive line. Two weeks ago, Colin Bass, a "red shirt" freshman, made his first career start at offensive center. Against Richmond, offensive guard Tim Farley, another "red shirt" freshman, made the first start of his career.
Injuries have impacted the offensive line to the extent that senior Dan Bridges, the Tigers' right tackle, is the only offensive lineman who has started all eight games at the same position.
Freshman Peter Athens started the Tigers' first six games at quarterback before he suffered a season-ending knee injury against Delaware. He threw for 691 yards and six touchdowns before his season ended prematurely.
Since the injury to Athens, the Tigers have used Chroniger as their starter in the last two games. Junior Jeremy Jayne has also see action the last two weeks.
In the loss to top-ranked Richmond, Chroniger ran for 20 yards on 14 carries and scored a touchdown. He also completed 6 of 13 passes for 38 yards and a touchdown. His 19-yard TD pass to senior tight end John Godlasky tied the game at 7-7 in the second quarter.
Linebacker Danzel White, a "red shirt" freshman, led the Tigers' defensive effort with a career high 16 tackles. He also recovered a fumble to stop Richmond's opening drive of the game. White leads the Tigers with 82 tackles in eight games, an average of 10.4 tackles per game. He is ranked fourth in the CAA in tackles.
Sophomore safety Danny Collins added a career high 12 tackles and forced a fumble against Richmond.
Senior defensive end Brady Smith also had a big game against the Spiders. He made nine tackles, including two for lost yardage. He also recovered a fumble. In eight games, Smith has made 47 tackles, including seven for lost yardage. He has two sacks and two fumble recoveries. A transfer from Boston College, he ranks fourth among CAA defensive linemen with 5.9 tackles per game.
Linebacker Romale Tucker, another "red shirt" freshman and a Syracuse transfer, made nine tackles, including a sack, against Richmond. Tucker has made 36 tackles this year, including 19 in the last two games.
Despite allowing a seasonal high 243 rushing yards against Richmond, the Tigers' run defense still ranks tenth in the CAA. Towson has surrendered an average of 166.2 rushing yards per game. Meanwhile, the Tigers are ranked third in the CAA in pass defense, giving up 174.4 yards per contest. Towson ranks ninth in the CAA in total defense, allowing 340.6 yards per game.
Although the Tigers are 11th in the CAA in scoring defense with a 34.9 average, that number is deceptive. While Towson has allowed 279 points in eight games, 55 of those points were scored while the defense was on the sidelines. Tiger opponents have returned five interceptions for touchdowns and returned two kickoffs for TD's. In addition, the Tigers have allowed two safeties and a defensive two-point conversion.
With their offensive line riddled by injuries, the Tigers' offense has struggled the last two weeks. In the loss to Richmond, the Tigers were held to a season low 164 total yards.
While the Tigers faced the highest scoring team in the CAA last week, they will be playing the most-balanced offensive team in the CAA this week. Led by sophomore tailback Jonathan Grimes, William & Mary ranks second in the CAA, averaging 180.1 rushing yards per game. The Tribe leads the CAA in total offense by averaging 384.8 yards per game. William & Mary is averaging 28.8 points per outing, fourth in the CAA.
After allowing 121 rushing yards to Richmond's Justin Forte, the Tiger defense will have to defend Grimes this week. Forte, the CAA's top rusher, is averaging 92.2 yards per game, just ahead of Grimes, who averages 86.9 yards per contest. He is also second in the CAA with 133.2 all-purpose yards per game.
Towson's game at #5 William & Mary is the second of three consecutive games against teams ranked in the top five of NCAA FCS. Next week, Towson hosts fourth-ranked Villanova in their final home game.
TIGER TIDBITS: In their 42-14 loss to Richmond, the Tigers set a school record for the fewest penalties in a game ... For the first time in the 426-game history of Towson football, the Tigers were not penalized ... Strangely enough, Richmond was only penalized once for 14 yards ... So, Towson and Richmond played a game in which there was just one penalty called for 14 yards ... The lone penalty of the game was a roughing-the-passer call against the Spiders in the third quarter.
The Tigers, who have played one of the toughest schedules in NCAA FCS, have played three nationally-ranked FCS teams ... Towson has lost to #6 New Hampshire, #23 Delaware and number one-ranked Richmond ... Towson also played an NCAA BCS team, Northwestern University, in the season opener.
In eight games to date, Towson has accumulated 947 net rushing yards ... This is already Towson's highest single season rushing total since the Tigers ran for 1,499 yards in the 2005 season.
Junior defensive lineman Kyle O'Brien of William & Mary is the son of Towson University's Head Athletic Trainer, Terry O'Brien ... Terry O'Brien is a 1975 Towson graduate who played football for the Tigers.
Towson has now gone 82 consecutive games without playing an overtime contest ... The Tigers have the third-longest non-overtime streak in NCAA FCS behind Jacksonville (95) and Weber State (90) ... Towson's last overtime game was a 34-31 double overtime loss at Cornell on October 5, 2002.

Regardless of which VM platform is used -- there is some mix-and-match in the enterprise today though it poses specific management challenges -- Gartner analysts say there is a dearth of mature management tools for virtualized systems.
"There's a disconnect today," said Wolf, noting that a recent forum Gartner held for more than a dozen CIOs overseeing their organizations building private clouds, more than 75 percent said they were using home-grown management tools for things like hooking into asset management systems and ticketing.
Nevertheless, Gartner is urging enterprises to put together a long-term strategy for the private cloud and brace for the fast-paced changes among vendor and providers that will bring new products and services -- and no doubt, a number of market drop-outs along the way.
But this private cloud planning will involve updating procurement and change management processes used internally today, as well as figuring out which applications are most suited to be virtualized. Starting off with file and print and simpler applications not considered mission-critical is a good way to start. "some applications can't be virtualized because they have special hardware requirements," Wolf said.
For example, Paul Rizzo, GlaxoSmithKline's infrastructure business partner, end user infrastructure services, said the pharmaceuticals giant has found that Microsoft SharePoint does not run well in VMware.
For the long-term, Gartner cautioned businesses to make sure that future requests-for-proposal to software vendors stipulate that applications support virtualization is needed, Wolf also noted in one session that there is significant complexity in virtualization mobility, moving a VM from one hypervisor to another.
"Multiple hypervisors in the data center might need different configuration management tools," he pointed out. Sometimes enterprises in separate locations or business units are deploying different vendor hypervisors, which "can be problematic for failover, and a challenge for change control." But he noted that VMware's high licensing costs and restrictions on per-VM use in the cloud, mean IT managers may want to keep their options open to consider a switch.
Virtualization requires an entirely new way of thinking about networking, said Gartner analyst Mark Fabbi. "Virtualization changes everything, how we look at server I/O, how we deal with branch offices and disaster recovery."
Gartner reckons in virtualized environments there is "25 times more bandwidth coming from the same physical footprint," and the server I/O needs to be moved from 1G to 10Gbps, Fabbi said. "40G output is on the horizon in the high-performance blades," he noted. "The idea of 40G I/O off the servers isn't far-fetched."
One of the main drivers for all this "clearly is VMware," he said, noting that virtualization's "voracious appetite" is seen in VMware capabilities such as Vmotion. "In a virtual environment, things are shifting around." The rippling effect of all of this is that the top of rack switch will need to be pushed from 10G to 40G, using technologies like Infiniband. There may be savings in consolidating I/O, but "the challenge is in the rack," he said.
Virtualization is prompting a shift from a classic three-tier architecture to two, Fabbi said, saying the future network architecture for all this is more focused on Layer 2 than Layer 3. The newer fabric-based architectures from HP, the VCE Cisco alliance with VMware and EMC, and IBM -- in addition to any decision to "roll your own" -- should be evaluated, he said.
But data centers may still have "multiple domains," he said, for instance, "A VMware domain and a Hyper-V domain. In large organizations, you may have multiple domains. We don't think it will be totally homogeneous."

Have you MET us?
When Joseph S. Jarvis became head of Mesa Parks and Recreation Department in 1937, his desire was "to make Mesa a beautiful place for all to live". Recognizing the need for a community recreational and cultural program, one of his first orders of business was to start a theatre group.
From its humble beginnings on a school stage, to loading flats and properties on a truck and traveling to performance locations, MET has remained a part of Mesa's cultural experience for over 75 years.
Throughout those years, thousands of volunteers have worked to carry on the Jarvis legacy. By donating their time, talent and financial support, MET has produced over 200 full length plays and musicals. MET has brought together members of the community to act, sing, build sets, stage manage, run lights and sound, plus much more. We believe that's what community theatre is all about!
Today, Mesa Encore Theatre still operates through the efforts of volunteers working to provide a wonderful evening of live theatre season after season. We hope you will join us and share in the experience as we present some of theatre's greatest theatrical productions, both historical and current.
Join us for the truly magical experience of live theatre!
Mission Statement:
Mesa Encore Theatre (MET) brings the fun and excitement of live theatre to the community with integrity and dedication to excellence. We are committed to being an integral part of the cultural experience that contributes to the quality of life for all - adults of any age, youth and children. MET respects the talents and skills of its volunteers and welcomes everyone to participate, enjoying and enhancing their performing arts experience, both on stage and behind the scenes.
For Email Marketing you can trust
MET's next board meeting will be Tuesday, August 12th 6:00pm, at Maya New York Pizza, Bar & Grill on the SW corner of Brown & Mesa. (click here for a google map!)

Has anyone experienced this issue? All evanto sites (themeforest, codecayon.net, etc..) run really really, snail crawling slow. Thats when they run at all, as they mostly just hang and refused to load.This has been a daily thing for the last 6 months at least.
This is especially bad when trying to preview a demo theme or when trying to view my "downloads" area.
I have this issue on safari, chrome and firefox, and I'm no a really fast 25+ mbps connection.

I've had longer usage spans from different geo-locations, and over 3 years, I've never experienced anything of the sort, except for when I had dns issues.

I've been using it for years, but never had that issues until the last 6 months or so. Now its almost unusable. Its really frustrating, especially because I use the various sites so much.

Sounds like your DNS – I would change your internet to route through googles public DNS servers – nice and fast and 100% legal – here's a link:https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/
Hope that helps

I just had a quick look at our server logs, and the website is responding pretty quickly for your requests – usually around 100ms, and nothing slower than 0.5s for the last week. So that looks OK at that end.
Like the other's have suggested, I'd have a look at your DNS configuration.
It's also possible that Javascript and/or stylesheets are not loading fast enough, even though the main site is. We host them on separate domains and using Amazon S3, and you might be getting some sort of slow down accessing them which causes the rest of the site load speed to be slower.
If you're using Safari, turn on the "Develop" menu, and have a look at any slow requests (for more info here)
Note anything there that seems excessively slow (longer than ~1s), and post back here, that would help investigating what the problem is.
