"The Score" by The Fugees
- This album has had its fair share of praise heaped on it, and it certainly isn't a hidden gem by any means. But unlike a lot of records that fade over time, The Score hasn't aged a day in fifteen years, and even in the midst of dozens of other landmark albums from its time - it came out the same year as Stakes Is High, Legal Drug Money, Beates, Rhymes And Life, Reasonable Doubt, ATLiens, Illadelph Halflife and Ironman - it still stands head and shoulders above almost everything else. The production juggles grit and gloss without ever sacrificing one for the other, nearly every verse has a handful of quotable lines from each member, and even though the songs borrow hooks, they're ingeniously and innovatively sampled and interpolated, never coming off as just "lifted" (a la the majority of mainstream rap that would follow).
It's a real shame that the song the group is best known for is a cover, because that one (as well as the Bob Marley cut) are the only weak links in an otherwise perfect chain. The range and versatility the group showed here was (and still is) unparalleled, but to top it off, as ambitious a record as it is, they nail every style they attempt to tackle - hard gangsta raps ("Cowboys"), playful joke verses ("The Mask"), and soul-baring emotion ("Manifest").
One of the crown jewels not only of the best era of hip hop, but an outstanding achievement for the genre as a whole. I'll be damned if it's even come close to being topped by anything or anyone around today.

Jen Cumpston is a Doctoral student who likes integrative science with an international flavor. She began her studies at NIU after completing a B.A. in geography at the University of Illinois and working as an intern at the National Geographic Society in Washington, D.C. Jennifer's research is a unique combination of anthropology, archaeology, earth and ocean sciences, and aims to better understand paleoclimate and its effect on the ancient peoples of coastal Peru.
Jennifer has worked as a teaching assistant and an NSF-supported research assistant since her arrival at NIU in the fall of 2007. As part of her appointment she traveled to Peru and conducted research with a team of scientists from the Proyecto Arqueológico Norte Chico (PANC). This group includes scientists from the NIU Department of Anthropology and the Chicago Field Museum. Together with these colleagues, Jen participated in archeological excavations and collected mollusk shells that coastal-dwelling ancient peoples tossed aside after eating their contents. The record of paleoclimate that Jen will unravel is trapped in these shells in the form of oxygen isotopes.

Hiram councilmen during their regular session Tuesday focused primarily on the city's proposed fiscal year 2013 budget that could be approved by the end of the month.
City Manager Robbie Rokovitz presented council members with a preliminary budget draft, which he explained was a work in progress and mostly to help council members prepare for a budget work session next week. The council likely will approve a final budget later this month.
Next week's work session is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 10, at 6 p.m. in the Hiram Community Center/Council Chambers and will be followed by a public hearing on the proposed budget.
The public starting today will be able to obtain a copy of the FY2013 draft budget at Hiram City Hall.
Following the budget discussion, Rokovitz presented background on an agenda item regarding the 2012 tax digest and five-year history of levy Information.
Rokovitz explained Tuesday that in setting the city's millage for the purpose of establishing a 5-year history, since the city of Hiram does not have a millage rate, officials use a formula to establish a baseline rate, which the city then rolls back to zero. The proposed current rate of 2.479 mills would not be imposed, but rather is expected to be rolled back to maintain zero property taxes. But the calculated rate is used to make a millage rate history available to public record, Rokovitz said, and also to provide council members with background on how the rate is calculated.
The tax digest and five-year history also will be made available today at Hiram City Hall.
Mayor Doris Devey during the meeting presented a proclamation of the Paulding Public Safety Appreciation Inc. and made an announcement of the Appreciation Day event, to be held Oct. 13. Devey also read a proclamation regarding National Red Ribbon Week in recognition of the support for a drug-free community.
Before adjourning to go into closed session, the council voted in favor of adopting a resolution to establish the procedure and requirements for processing open records requests received by the city. No additional agenda items were considered following the council's return from closed session.

This turned out great. I made a few modifications: NO BEANS! I have lived in Texas for 27 years and no one has ever served me KRC with beans in it. We serve the beans on the side! Also, I used a mix of corn and flour tortillas. This is a terrific recipe for it, not too much of anything - a perfect blend. This casserole was derived from the famous King Ranch, in Kingsville, Tx. AAA+++ for flavor.
This recipe is a lot like a chicken enchilada recipe that I usually make, but this recipe is so much easier and quicker. 5 stars from my husband and 4 stars from me. I used a 10 oz can of rotel tomatoes instead of the 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes and it was perfect, not too soupy.
I really tried to like this recipe but my whole family just choked it down, which was a bummer because it is not the cheapest casserole to make with all it's ingredients. I followed the recipe to a tee but it was just yucky...maybe it needs corn tortillas rather than flour as they tend to become a mushy, floury mess. Abyhow, it didn't work for me.

Yankees considering Pettitte for Game Two, Kuroda for Game ThreeBy
Via Mark Hale, the Yankees will consider using Hiroki Kuroda as the number three starter in the ALDS and sliding Andy Pettitte in behind CC Sabathia as the number two. We've been assuming it would be the other way around for much of the season. "That's something that we're going to have to talk about, absolutely," said Joe Girardi when asked about starting Pettitte over Kuroda in Game Two. "[Kuroda] had an unbelievable season, and that's something we'll definitely consider."
Pettitte was lined up to pitch today in a potential tie-breaker game, which thankfully was not needed. He would be on eight days' rest for Game Two and ten days' rest for Game Three. Kuroda, on the other hand, would start Game Two on normal rest and Game Three on seven days' rest. Giving him two extra days seems like a pretty good idea given his age (37) and career-high workload (219.2 IP), plus he actually pitched better at home than on the road this year. Unsurprisingly, Kuroda said he would do whatever the team asked.
36 Comments»
definitely Pettitte for Game 2.
if are the Yankees, you don't want to be down 0-2, before you even make it back home.
Andy has been there and done it. He has also been pretty good this season. I think it is better that they both get a little extra rest rather than pettitte get 10 days and kuroda only go on normal rest.
Let's hope they're not down 0-2 to begin with
I'm on board with Andy in Game 2.
Pettitte has pitched much better at home this yr too. And he's never pitched well in TX. Two things to consider.
And what if Baltimore beats Texas?
I didn't say that wasn't possible. Doesn't change the fact that his rd numbers are much worse than his home numbers. Obviously SSS.
There are legitimate arguments for both. Neither one is an indictment of either pitchers ability to do the job. Whichever way they go I think it'll be hard to second guess the decision.
Personally I would like yo split the lefties and also I really like Pettitte in dat potential swing game which game 3 potentially could be. Still I have no problem with the Yankees decision there.
I really don't think its a big deal having 2 lefties in row in the rotation.
The only way it really matters is if the enemy has strong platoon bats. Then you may want to split the lefties so that they can't get in a rhythm (if they're good vs. LHP).
On the other hand, if their good platoon bats are vs. RHP, then you actually may want to bunch your lefties to cool them off. This would be especially true if the Rangers had such bats since Saunders is a LHP, so their lefty platoon bats would have 3 games off on top of all the scheduled off days.
All of it's moot, though, since as I recall neither Baltimore nor Texas has much platooning going on.
The beauty of it is they're both great options. Still can't believe last year Freddy freakin Garcia was the #3 pitcher in the playoffs.
Everyone speaks of Texas moving on, but what if it's Baltimore? I would assume Andy pitches very well in Baltimore and would be better suited as the #2 and Kuroda would get game 3 at home.
Joe Saunders is pitching for Baltimore, so it might be a safe assumption.
I think having a Lefty pitch at YS is important, which would leave Andy at #3. Most pitchers pitch better at Home, but I think because of Andy's popularity with the fans, that he may 'get more' from the fan support of pitching at home.
As has been said above, I like splitting the lefties, and IF Game #3 IS an elimination Game, I'd rather Andy (over Hiroki) be on the mound.
What's this fascination with splitting up the lefties? If your two best pitchers are lefties you pitch them 1-2, period. It's overmanaging to split them up so I'm sure Joe will do it. In 2010 ALCS, Andy couldn't go in Game 2 so we had to pitch Phil Hughes instead. That cost us Game 2 and Game 6 because Phil was awful. Andy pitched a gem in Game 3 but was outdueled by Cliff Lee. CC 1, Andy 2, Kuroda 3, Phil 4.
Why are we assuming Andy is much better than Kuroda?
Because he's Andy Pettitte, that's why. And if the ALDS goes 5 games then we've got Andy lined up for Game 1. If not, then they can pitch him in Game 3 in the ALCS as they'll be at home for 1 and 2. Then Andy will be lined up for a possible Game 7 and there's no other pitcher I'd want on the mound in an elimination game.
Except this is NOT the difference bewteen Andy and a very inconsistant Hughes. This is the difference between Andy and a very decent Hiroki Kuroda, who in 33 games posted a 3.32 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP.
Is Andy a better pitcher? Is he more battle tested? Maybe. But the difference on any given day is small. However, having a lefty pitch in YS is a BIG advantage over a righty pitching in YS.
And CC will pitch #1 and #5. Regardless of what happens, Hiroki and Andy will only pitch one game. Maybe in a 7 games series, it will make a difference, but not in a 5 game series played over 6 days.
"Why is Andy better than Kuroda?"
"Because Andy is better than Kuroda!"
Tautologies ftw! Shouldn't really expect anything else from Eddard, I guess.
Well, you literally can't argue with that, so…
It matters not. Each has to do their job in games 2 and 3.
Pretty balanced for RH or LH batters
Left field: 333 ft.
left-center: 364 ft.
center field: 410 ft.
deepest right-center: 4o0 ft.
right-center: 373 ft.
right field: 318 ft.
Fences: 25 ft. in right field, 7 ft. elsewhere.
Dimension wise, it seems to favor LHB pull hitters, EXCEPT that 25′ wall makes it 'deeper' then it's dimension.
P.S. check out the prices!
Could we start Andy on three days rest?
game 3 always seems to be the biggest in a 5 game series, so I would lean towards holding back andy (true yankee comfort level), but getting hiroki some extra rest can't be a bad thing either. whatever happens, if they lose the series people will call for girardi's head

Help Linda Arpino,RD,CDN Nutritionist to Volunteer in Haiti
Linda Arpino fundraising for HANDS UP FOR HAITI INC
Behind every good cause is an organization where people are working their butts off to make sure it's a success. Hands up for Haiti is that.
Hi My Name Is Linda Arpino and I have been a registered dietitian my whole life helping people live healthier lives with balanced nutrition. When a collegue, Jill Ratner, MD, pediatrican presented at a ground round meeting last spring about her trip to Haiti and the intense need there was for more assistence to help the most impoverist country on this side of the globe, I knew I must go to help! I wish to make a difference but need your support as little as $10, or more will help cover costs of $2000 by January 18, 2013. While I have contributed financially to helping Haitians for years, going and being part of the team going on March 2-10, 2013 is my commitment but I need your help to support this important effort! My air flight to join the team going must be booked by January 18. So please help me in any way you can by making a donation on this site. Two years ago I in India to help at a Missionary Hospital Pediatric Cancer Center. There I was able to make a difference in changing what was fed to children with struggling with leukemia. The physician I know who works at this hospital isaid the changes are still helping.
I hope to make the same impact in Haiti. Appreciate any support you can give to help me help them!

Grades have no direct impact on the overall score.
Skin Video is not new to the web, but it's a site that's new to me. So I took the tour and found that this video site not only offers some big name titles, but also vintage and rare amateur porn. The overall site design and set-up appears to be very basic, but there are plenty of options for browsing and it looks as though an updated design to the member's area gives users an even better experience than before. In the end, you really can't complain about a site offering more than 45,500 videos (from about 345 DVD titles) for less than $15 bucks per month.
Large Archive of Video/DVD Content.
Tons of video content and lots of variety. From bizarre fetishes to hardcore sex acts, amateur videos, and hot adult DVD's, Skin Video carries one of the largest archives of video clips around.
Many Browse Options.
Videos are listed in main categories, and then subcategorized by things like fetish, sex act, style, etc. and then can even be further sorted by a number of options. There is even a model index and can be sorted/filtered by breast size, age, build, height, ethnicity, and many other specifics. All content is tagged and cross-linked to other similar content.
Some HD Videos Offered.
Currently there is a section of the site offering a collection of videos with HD specs. There are close to 1,000 clips in that section at this point, offering specs up to 3300k. They're certainly not perfect HD but they do look nice.
Multiple Daily Updates.
Multiple daily updates are the norm at this point. Based on the time stamps posted on the scenes there can be anywhere from 2-7 scenes added each day.
Other Good Stuff:
Non Exclusive Content.
Such is the case with all DVD sites but it should be mentioned that none of the content here is unique to the site. I can't speak for sure on the Amateur XXX videos section, but I'd be willing to be they're non exclusive as well.
Small Image Sizing.
They do offer a photo section here and while some of the sets offer just screen caps other sets offer nice looking digital pictures but at just 450x600 pixels in size, they leave a lot to be desired.
Minor Negatives:
Many entertaining amateur videos, DVD's and some HD for a decent price.
Overall Skin Video has done a pretty good job at offering a lot of video clip content at a decent price, while still delivering many of your basic necessary browse & viewing options. In the past there was plenty of room for expansion in terms of browsing, but it looks like they've tackled that with this most recent re-design. Overall the quality is nothing that will blow you away but it's decent unless you're checking out the HD scenes offered. They look really nice, although not perfect HD by any means. It's hard to say I would recommend Skin Video over some of my favorite DVD sites, but in terms of a video site, they're at least unique in the way that they offer not only Adult DVD titles but also amateur clips as well, and they do it all for less than $15 bucks per month. Who can argue with that?

ARROYO CITY, Texas - A park along the Texas border that is managed and maintained by local taxpayer dollars is nonetheless closed during the federal government shutdown.
Adolph Thomae Jr. County Park was closed this week because it sits on federal land. But the park is operated by Cameron County and stayed open during the last government shutdown in 1995.
The Monitor in McAllen reported Sunday that county officials are reluctant to question the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service because they're in the midst of negotiating a new park lease with the federal government.
The original 25-year lease expired in 2011. The park operates under a conditional lease.
County Commisioner David Garza says the park's closing is due to the shutdown and not related to the lease issue.

Stephen Mottram presents extraordinary puppet show
An extraordinary puppet world full of mystical, captivating, powerful, elegant, precise and rare beauty will be unveiled in early June when Stephen Mottram stages "In Suspension" in Hong Kong.
The show will be presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department.
Working in full view of the audience on a small open stage with string puppets, Mottram lures the audience into an unexpected and magical experience. The strong atmospheric theatre haunts the audience long after the puppets have been packed away.
"In Suspension" is based on acute observation of the details of human movement. Elegant yet simple, it toys with perceptions of everyday things like gravity and balance. Bit by bit, the viewer is coaxed into a magical, funny and poetic alternative world where the norms no longer rule. There is no spoken language. Anyone old enough to watch carefully and quietly will find it enjoyable.
The music for "In Suspension" was especially composed by Glyn Perrin, Simon Waters and Pete McPhail. The music leads the audience toward the visual events and the choreography in turn set the tune for the musical moments.
Stephen Mottram is an artist, craftsman and puppeteer. Since 1988 he has been developing a unique theatre language, which exploits the relationship between electro-acoustic music and the movement-image. His solo show "In Suspension" has been performed in different venues around the world. Since 1990, Mottram's performances have been seen in nearly 40 countries.
He has also worked on a number of films including "The Little Shop of Horrors" and "Tales from the Decameron". He was one of the four main puppet operators on "Strings" – a Danish feature film.
The Hong Kong shows will be staged at 8pm on June 2 at the Cultural Activities Hall, Sha Tin Town Hall; 8pm on June 3 and 3pm on June 4 at the Studio Theatre, Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Tickets priced $140 for Sha Tin Town Hall, $100 and $160 for Hong Kong Cultural Centre are now available at all URBTIX outlets. Half-price tickets are available for senior citizens, people with disabilities, full-time students and Comprehensive Social Security Assistance recipients (limited student and CSSA tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis). Please see programme leaflets for the group booking discount scheme.
For programme enquiries call 2268 7323 or visit

Personal History:Dr. Westlake received her B.Sc. in Physical Therapy from McGill University and her M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Rehabilitation Sciences from Queen's University in Canada. Her doctoral work was focused on the role of proprioception in postural control and the ability to train proprioceptive integration with visual and vestibular inputs to improve postural stability in older adults. Further questions about the neural control of movement were probed during her postdoctoral work in a individuals with stroke. She completed one year of postdoctoral research at the VA Rehabilitation Research and Development Center/Stanford University and three years in the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging at the University of California, San Francisco. Dr. Westlake has over eight years of clinical experience as a physical therapist treating stroke and other neurological disorders. Her teaching roles have been in the areas of clinical neurology, neurorehabilitation, motor control and learning, neuroradiology, and as a research mentor. She joined the faculty at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in January 2011.
Research Interests:Dr. Westlake's research interests are focused on the unpredictable timing and capacity for functional recovery after stroke. Using a multi-modal neuroimaging approach combined with clinical outcomes and motion analysis, she seeks to identify brain adaptations in connectivity that underlie improvements in motor control. Overall goals of this research are to better characterize the stroke population, predict recovery potential, and develop targeted and novel methods of rehabilitation that will optimize and individualize motor learning.

New Castle News
Three brothers from Detroit were arrested Thursday in a raid at a house on the city's South Side.
One of the men allegedly reached twice for guns and officers wrestled him to the floor. Police then confiscated the two guns — a .357 Magnum and a .40-caliber Glock.
Officers of the Lawrence County District Attorney's Drug Task Force Special Investigative Unit were serving a sealed search warrant at 109 E. Home St., and had just entered the house when the struggle ensued.
They were searching the house based on information that a man with a street name of "G" was selling crack cocaine and Xanax from the house and that he travels often from New Castle to Detroit to get the drugs.
Police also learned the alleged sales took place about 190 feet from the St. Vitus School, a Catholic kindergarten and grade school labeled a drug-free school zone.
According to District Attorney Joshua Lamancusa, Javoni A. Hitchcock, 23, was in the living room when police entered the house and an officer ordered him onto the floor. Hitchcock tried to reach under the couch to grab the Glock and an officer wrestled him to another location and handcuffed him. Hitchcock also had tried to reach into the couch cushions for the Magnum, Lamancusa said.
Also arrested in the 6:15 a.m. raid were Dominic A. Brown, 31, and Torey Hitchcock, 22, who also has an address at 109 E. Home St.
The officers "exercised discretion and professionalism today by choosing not to take the life of Mr. Hitchcock, despite his attempts to grab for a gun," Lamancusa said Thursday.
"Each and every raid places our officers in harm's way," Lamancusa said, "and but for the quick thinking and trained response, one of our officers could have been injured or one of the defendants could have been killed."
New Castle Police Chief Bobby Salem pointed out, "My men are trained to handle these types of situations and I could not be more pleased with how they responded."
In addition to the guns — one of which had been reported stolen — police confiscated $2,100, a scale, plastic bags, a spoon, a syringe and one roxycodone tablet.
Lamancusa said Brown was wanted on an arrest warrant from Georgia and Javoni Hitchcock was wanted on a warrant from Detroit. He also has a prior felony conviction.
All three men are charged with receiving stolen property and use or possession of drug paraphernalia.
Javoni Hitchcock also is charged for being a felon and having a firearm, which carries a mandatory prison sentence of five to 10 years upon conviction.
He also is charged with aggravated assault on a police officer.
The three were arraigned by District Judge Melissa A. Amodie, who set their bonds at $250,000 each. They are in the Lawrence County jail.
In addition to New Castle police, officers from Shenango, Union, Shenango and Neshannock townships and Ellwood City and New Wilmington boroughs participated in the raid.

The Register-News
---- — MT. VERNON – Marion's girls soccer team consistently dominated possession in a 4-0 win against the Lady Rams.
"They didn't do anything I didn't expect them to do," Mt. Vernon coach Jeff Harrison said. "I knew who their players were, and they played well. They're great with possession."
The start of the game was delayed about 30 minutes because of lightning.
Marion controlled the flow of play in the opening half. The possession-based style of play didn't lead to any shots in the first 20 minutes but did force Mt. Vernon's defenders into constant chasing in an attempt to win the ball back.
"We were able to go at them a bit to try and make penetrating through balls," Marion coach Bart Orso said. "Also when they did have the ball, we applied a lot of pressure."
Mt. Vernon's offense mustered a pair of shots on goal in the game. Both came in the first half. Five minutes into the game, Taylor McGowen boomed a long free kick on goal, but the shot was saved. Mt. Vernon's striker Whitney Warner also dribbled the ball deep into Marion's end. But her shot went high of the goal.
The Lady Wildcats tallied two goals in the opening half. Both came off set pieces. Marion played the ball short on a corner kick. Taylor McGowen cleared Marion's initial shot off the goal line, but Shelby Shotton fired the rebound past Paisley Stewart.
"They're just very skilled players," Harrison said. "Whatever it is that you take away, they've got an alternative to that. So they'll take whatever option is open."
The second goal started with a free kick and ended with an Emily Lowery header past Stewart.
Marion added to its advantage in the second half. Alia Abu-Douleh scored on a header six minutes into action to make the score 3-0. Emily Dickman scored from the top of the penalty with a shot for Marion's final goal.
Stewart finished the game with one save for the Lady Rams.
Mt. Vernon is 3-5-1 this season and Marion improved to 8-2.

Reading Is Fundamental
Reading Is Fundamental, Inc. is the oldest and largest nonprofit literacy organization in the United States. Founded in 1966, it is based in Washington, D. C. RIF's community volunteers in every state and U.S. territory provide 4.5 million children with 16 million new, free books and literacy resources each year. RIF's priority is impoverished children from birth to age 8 years.
All RIF programs combine three essential elements to foster children's literacy: reading motivation, family and community involvement, and the excitement of choosing free books to keep. RIF's accomplishments are due in part to the generous financial assistance by the U.S. Department of Education, corporations, foundations, community organizations, and thousands of individuals.
In 1966, former teacher Margaret McNamara brought a bag of used books to four boys in Washington, D.C., whom she tutored in reading. When she told the children they could each select a book to keep, their astonishment and delight led her to discover that these children, and many of their classmates, had never owned any books. By that summer, McNamara had gathered a group of school volunteers, and on November 3, 1966, they launched the book distribution and reading motivation program they called Reading Is Fundamental. From November 1966 through the early 1970s, RIF expanded from a pilot project at three elementary schools in Washington, D.C., to a program reaching children in 60 of the city's public schools. Its well-known slogan during those times was "Reading is FUNdamental".
In 1975, the U.S. Congress created the Inexpensive Book Distribution Program (IBDP) which provides federal matching funds to sites that qualify for RIF's national book program. Today, through its contract with the United States Department of Education to operate the IBDP, now supplemented with private funds, RIF programs operate in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam. RIF is also affiliated with programs in Argentina and the United Kingdom.
In 2004, Kappa Kappa Gamma, a national women's fraternity, selected RIF as its national philanthropy.[1] Together, Kappa and RIF have developed the "Reading Is Key" program, through which children are exposed to new books. Every year, the Delta Nu Chapter at UMASS Amherst holds a book drive to donate to the program. [2]
In November 2001, Carol Hampton Rasco was named president and chief executive officer of Reading Is Fundamental, Inc. Throughout her life, Rasco has been an advocate for children, youth, and families, as a professional and as a volunteer. Before this position, Rasco was the executive director for government relations at the College Board. From 1997 through 2000, she served as the senior adviser to U.S. Secretary of Education, Richard W. Riley, and as director of the America Reads Challenge, a four-year national campaign to promote the importance of all children reading well and independently by the end of the third grade. Previously, Rasco worked for four years in the White House as domestic policy adviser to the president and directed the Domestic Policy Council.
RIF's flagship service is Books for Ownership (formerly known as the National Book Program), which also supplies children with free paperback books. RIF also offers several special literacy services which, in addition to supplying the services of the Books for Ownership program, target their efforts to specific age groups or populations. RIF serves children at a wide range of venues, including schools, libraries, childcare centers, Head Start programs, parks, community centers, health clinics, migrant camps, and domestic shelters.

After 420 minutes spent walking from camp ground to concert, four hours of sleep per night and a grand total of zero showers, our final day in the Gorge was certainly tinged with fatigue. For some it was less Sasqautch! and more Sasquatch, exclamation point optional.
One man knew just how to wash that tiredness right out of his hair. As we entered the festival, he was sitting fully-clothed on a fixture in a nearby pond, attracting a crowd of onlookers and some very disgruntled security personnel. He then stood up, spread his arms triumphantly, and dove backwards into the water. Exultant, he proceeded to do a lap of victory, trailed by a beleaguered doggy-paddling crowd-control employee. With this brave soul's inspiring performance in mind, we were off toward the first band of the day.
Read our reviews from Monday below…
Sallie Ford And The Sound Outside started things off with a swingin' set of retro blues. Ms. Sallie Ford possesses one hell of a voice, best showcased on songs like "Write Me a Letter." The Portland-based band's home fans lapped up their tracks, bopping along to the killer upright bass, played by Tyler Tornfelt (what a name). Sallie Ford promised sunny music for good vibes, and she sure didn't disappoint.
Things got weird with Awesome Tapes from Africa. Brian Shimkovitz, the man behind the blog-turned-record-label, played the Banana Shack a selection of tapes he collected during a stint conducting research in Africa. Although Sasquatch! organizers deserve props for booking such an interesting act, it was an odd choice to place Shimkovitz in the dance tent. Women in full skirts and beanies swayed. Men in wayfarers and straw fedoras shuffled back and forth. One couldn't help but feel the audience were mimicking moves from Beyoncé's "Run The World (Girls)" video in an attempt to recreate any essentialized "African" dance they may have seen. If it were intended as a DJ set, Shimkovitz's mix could have been better crafted–the beat-matching was poor, and there was no coherent sense of build. Instead of merely showcasing music listeners had never heard, Shimkovitz's set would have been more effective had he contextualized it for us–mixing the tapes into M.I.A., for example, to show festival-goers where contemporary pop artists have found inspiration.
Felix Cartal restored the Banana Shack to sweaty order, packing in one of the busiest crowds of the weekend. The Vancouver DJ mixed an impressive set of commercial house, and although it may still have been daylight, plenty of Sasquatchers were willing to pretend they were in the back alley behind a club smoking cigarettes at 4 A.M. Among the tunes were Cartal's "Don't Turn on the Lights" and "Black to White" from his recent Different Faces album. Cartal runs a tight ship full of massive drops and an expertly-crafted set that had the crowd clapping without encouragement. The audience jumped and shouted as one, audibly exclaiming en masse at least five times during his mix. Felix Cartal, we'll be seeing you again.
Shabazz Palaces, the experimental hip-hop duo of Ishmael Butler and Tendai 'Baba' Maraire, played one of the most musically-impressive live sets of the weekend. Unlike other rap acts, there was no DJ — the pair ran their beats off instruments and laptops entirely on their own, often rapping while simultaneously playing the bongos or keyboard. The crowd, seated on the grass and head-nodding by the stage, were taken on musical jams through jazz and funk as the duo rocked out between raps. Shabazz played most of the tracks off their 2009 Of Light EP, as well as 2012's full-length, Black Up. Their music recalled something raw and tangible often lost from hip-hop today, as they sang "do it for my people so I know y'all can have it" (from the descriptively-titled "Blastit At The Homie Rayzer's Charm Lake Plateau BBQ July At Outpalace Pk").
Sasquatch! organizers failed to mention that Sampha, the singer on SBTRKT's 2011 album and regular tourmate, would not be joining the masked producer on stage in the Gorge. Instead, SBTRKT played a diverse DJ set that acted like a how-to guide for electronic music. Without introducing himself, SBTRKT took to the stage playing a UK two-step beat, which mixed into "Hold On," followed by Boddika's "Grand Prix." Soon, the set veered into garage territory and a mix of "Living Like We Do." SBTRKT then descended into deep house, before dropping the eponymous Drake remix of "Wildfire" and ending with some crowd-pleasing dubstep. SBTRKT obviously had fun with his set, dropping an airhorn sound-effect at regular intervals.
As we drove away from the Gorge with chapped lips and sunburnt faces, we found ourselves debating the verity of sasquatches. Do they exist? And if so, do they eat bananas? We didn't come to a conclusion, but we know that this Sasquatch, at least, is one we'll be seeing next year.

Think of Kathy Burke and you'll most likely recall the wonder of Linda La Hughes in Gimme, Gimme, Gimme. But, in a case of life imitating art, there's another Tom she shared a house with – and now they're sharing the screen too in her new Sky Atlantic series Walking and Talking.
The four episodes – a continuation of Kathy's 2010 Little Cracker for Sky1 – tell the tale of Ms Burke's teenage years and the people she encounters. Including a gentleman named Icarus…
"She did write the part with me in mind, which is an incredible honour, 'cos, as well as being her mate, I've been a fan of hers for years. She's my favourite actress, possibly my favourite actor," Tom Stuart explains before Kathy joins us.
"It's funny, I've wanted to be an actor ever since I can remember but there was a play with Miss Kathy Burke... called It's a Great Big Shame, a Mike Leigh play at the Theatre Royal in Stratford East. I think I must've been 11 and my mum and dad took me to see it and she was extraordinary in it. I hadn't seen her on the television or anything at that time. It was incredible, it kinda confirmed for me, that it was definitely something I wanted to do and that is what I wanted to be."
So it's her fault?
"Yes it's all her fucking fault. So it's got a very full circle motion to it, so now I die."
Friends for 11 years (or 10, they can't remember) they met when Tom was in his final year at drama school and Kathy, being friends with his sister, came to see a play he was in. He needed somewhere to crash for a couple of months and stayed for four and half years. Now 31 (and no longer living at Chez Burke), Tom's just finished filming Michael Winterbottom's new movie King Of Soho.
But before that viewers will see him taking a lead role in Walking and Talking as a former lover of writer Joe Orton.
"I think one of the biggest things is that he's an outsider and the significant parts I've played have always been outsiders, because I was such a massive outsider in school as a kid and I can relate to that.
"I loved acting and drama in a school where you were meant to like football, I grew up in the rough of it in an East London school and didn't fit in well. Kath always says, not to pre-empt what she says, that this episode is like a love letter to the gays. I'm so proud to be part of that and I'm gay myself. I don't think she wrote the part for me because I'm gay…"
Is the character of Icarus based on real-life events?
"No I think she made it up, she's just plucked it out her arse really," he jokes.

A month after an elementary school massacre pushed gun control back onto the public agenda, some of the key proposals being discussed remain a sore point between Democrats and Republicans, though two ideas are backed by large, bipartisan majorities, according to a poll released Monday.
About 85% of surveyed Americans favor background checks for private gun sales and transactions at gun shows, according to the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press. Four out of five Americans favor laws to prevent the mentally ill from buying weapons. Both findings had broad support across party lines.

With an upsurge in the London escort services business, if you are an escort in London you have to up your game. Have you ever asked yourself why you were chosen and didn't get to serve a certain customer again? It is all about how appealing you are to your client. It is good to bear in mind that no one gets chosen by luck, it's all determined by your efforts. You might have an attractive profile but that's not all, read on to find out how to make your clients come back for more.
For starters, you don't have to own expensive jewellery or own the most expensive clothes in town. A woman is beautiful for she feels beautiful and not by her looks. Better still if you are beautiful on the inside (have a good heart) you will fare well in the industry. It's all in the mind and here are a few tips on how to leave men drooling.
As an high class escort in London, you should always look good. Like stated earlier it's not all about material wealth. Make good use of what you have. It all starts with self-consciousness. Always stay clean and smell good this is vital in creating physical attraction. Take your time and practise sex appeal . Confidence plays a major role in building this and as time goes by it will all be about your personality.
Learn how to express your mind, speak up now and then. Show your client that you have brains too. Most men want the company of smart gorgeous women. Use your brains to complement your beauty for it pays. However, when dealing with clients avoid being too wordy, it could get interpreted wrongly. Make it a habit to read widely this makes you more knowledgeable. You never know what kind of client you will meet. On the other hand a client might raise a topic where you aren't well versed. If this is the case, answer with short sentences (this is a polite way to suggest you are not interested in the topic), Some of these tips are provided by London escort agencies located in paddington. they were kind enough to put up these information on-web . Smile often and create a friendly atmosphere. A smile can break barriers, men don't want girls that are sulky. Make your client know that he can confide in you. Most are looking for attention and company and this only gets better when it's from a friend. In short, be friendly for you might end up creating a regular customer. When you finally have a welcoming personality, regulars get inclined to giving tips.
Be a mystery. As you talk with a client, don't tell him everything about your life as if it were book. Leave some things to their imagination and stir their curiosity. This is best achieved by giving short answers. The client might even arrange for more meetings just to know more about you. This gives you more pay and a regular customer.
Practise good companionship. As said earlier, most men are looking for company of a beautiful high class London escort girls. Make the customer feel his time and money were well spent and you will have him coming back for more. You can do this by listening intently to what customers tell you and answering wisely. This shows concern and men love being the centre of attention. Advised by stacy who works for one of the high class London escort agencies.
Find new ways of spicing up sex. Learning varied ways of satisfying customers` sexual needs. Where some may lack ideas be there to introduce something new. If a customer want to try something new make the best of it. With experience comes confidence and this is want to create. Lastly keep your genitals clean, they attract customers all the more.
Men like being in the company of hot bodied women. This is the plain truth and while many would like to deny it, even married men like this too. The fact is that as their wives grow old, they become less appealing. Men therefore go out to look for younger girls with hot bodies. Oriental and Asian escort service providers come in handy. They provide gorgeous Asian escort girls for their clients. There are too many Asian escort agencies like 4Asian Escorts to choose from and you will no doubt get your fetishes fulfilled.
It's not only the men involved in this craze, girls are in it too. They do as much as they can to make sure they are as appealing as possible. While many men hold different views about beauty, here are a few guidelines about how to gauge a girl's attractiveness. A girl with a thin waistline, large bust, nice breast shape, big bottom and nice skin tone is the best girl to go for. All these are attributes that men fond appealing. A woman might not have all these qualities, take one with at least two of them. you will discover she`s as beautiful as any of those with the qualities listed.
As you might have noticed, height has not been listed as a reason. Some men tend to choose based on height. Even you are short man, don't feel disadvantaged. Tall Japanese, Thai, Oriental or Exotic Asian escorts from orientalphotomodels.com can still come to your service. This is because beauty lies in the physical attributes of the woman and not her height. This applies for tall men too. Feel free to hire a short skinny Asian escort for being short doesn't mean she is less beautiful.
Why do men love hot bodies?
A woman with a hot body is a fantasy and dream for most men. Men fantasize and dream about hot women for it makes them sexually aroused. A hot body is a major turn-on for men. This is best explained in porn movies. They never go for less advantage women as per beauty. Most pornographic actors are hot bodied. That's why even before they begin the act most men already have their manhood upstanding. It's automatic that when a man sees a girl with a hot body, the first thought will always be how good it would be to have that particular girl in bed.
How to get a girl with a hot body.
From the street to bars and night clubs and now escorts, it progressively gets easier. I mean, getting a hot girl in the streets and the bar to have sex with you is harder compared to hiring an asian escort. The good thing about Asian escorts in London is that they are professional. She will never come claiming she has a baby, and you are the father. They are professional and their affair has no strings attached. On the other hand, a one-night fling with a random girl may end disastrous. She might end up being underage or infect you with a sexually transmitted disease. Go ahead, browse the vast agencies and find yourself a suitable hot-bodied asian escort.
Though it sounds safe to hire an asian or oriental escort, beware! There are scammers. Some evil-minded people are out there to rip you off your hard-earned money. They pose as escorts only to get a few undeserved coins from you. Only visit the trusted sites that appear on top of search engines. You should as well use your common sense. For instance, why would an escort post only one photo? Why would and asian escort post two dissimilar photos? Ask yourself such questions and you will keep off trouble. All said and done, select an oriental escort girl as beautiful as possible and live up to your fancies.

Vitamin C May Lower C-Reactive Protein, an Important Biomarker for Inflammation
C-Reactive Protein May Impact Heart Disease, Arthritis and Dementia
Vitamin C, statin drugs, and elevated blood levels of C-Reactive Protein
In a study published in Free Radical Biology and Medicine, scientists found that supplemental Vitamin C treatment lowered CRP levels, but only when CRP was elevated in the first place. C-Reactive Protein is considered elevated when blood levels are 1 mg/liter or higher.
Gladys Block, professor emeritus at University of California, Berkeley, and lead author, states, "Common sense suggests, and our study confirms, that biomarkers are only likely to be reduced if they are not already low."
For those people who did respond to Vitamin C treatment, however, the reduction in CRP was significant. After two months of treatment with Vitamin C supplements, C-Reactive Protein levels decreased by about 0.25 mg/l. Block notes that "several larger statin (drug) trials lowered CPR by about 0.2 mg/l." Thus, Block said, "Vitamin C may be able to reduce CRP as much as statins."
C-Reactive Protein and disease activity
The UC, Berkeley study noted that C-Reactive Protein is "a powerful predictor of heart disease and diabetes" and is strongly linked to obesity. Another scientist on the study, Nina Holland, stated, "The low-grade inflammation that characterizes obesity is believed to contribute to a number of disorders, including atherosclerosis and insulin resistance."
The Linus Pauling Institute reports that elevated C-Reactive Protein levels are associated with hypertension (high blood pressure) and stroke.
Rheumatology reports that radiological progression of joint destruction in Rheumatoid Arthritis is "less likely when ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and CPR are controlled." In a separate study, elevated C-Reactive Protein in Rheumatoid Arthritis patients caused microvascular dysfunction.
Ingenta research on the effectiveness of Etanercept (brand name: Enbrel) demonstrated that elevated CRP was associated strongly with flare-ups of skin disease in persons with psoriasis.
In Early Inflammation and Dementia, scientists found that elevated C-Reactive Protein is related to dementias, including Alzheimer's disease. Using CRP, and other biomarkers of inflammation, researchers stated these cerebral disease "processes are measurable long before clinical symptoms appear."
How much Vitamin C did study participants take?
Participants in the UC, Berkeley study, which found supplemental Vitamin C lowered elevated C-Reactive Protein levels more than statin drugs, took 1,000 mg of Vitamin C per day, for two months. The researchers thought it was safe for most people to take even twice that amount of Vitamin C on a daily basis.
Vitamin C supplements can decrease inflammation
C-Reactive Protein is a biomarker for the inflammation that occurs in many diseases. Supplemental Vitamin C may lower elevated CRP levels. Ultimately, Vitamin C may lower inflammation, wherever it occurs in the body.

Somerset —
The streak is over.
After approximately eight years and 10 months, the Pulaski County Lady Maroons did something on Friday night that hadn't been done since way back on February 21, 2004 — defeat the Casey County Lady Rebels.
PC's Brittany Warren led everybody with a game-high 26 points, while Haley Warren chipped in with 15, as Brian Miller's club snapped a 17-game losing streak to Casey County with an impressive, 55-48 victory.
"We're excited about breaking the streak, but we've still got to make free throws," lamented Miller, after watching his club struggle once again from the charity stripe hitting on only 14 of 26 attempts.
"It was a great win — our program is still growing, but we're getting close to where we want to be," added the Lady Maroons coach. "We still want to win our first district championship in a long time, and have a shot at the region. This win tonight over Casey was a big step in that direction."
The game saw one tie and six lead changes in the first half, but thanks to a modest spurt by the Lady Maroons late in the first half, it was Pulaski County pulling out to a 34-26 lead at the break.
And, it was Haley and Brittany Warren that led the charge to the front for PC.
Haley Warren drained three treys in the opening half of play, scoring 12 points in the first half, while her sister Brittany Warren led PC with 13 points at the break.
Meanwhile, Casey County's Katie Douglas helped keep her club close with 13 first half points, however the Lady Maroons forced the visitors into 11 first half turnovers, while outrebounding Randy Salyers' club by a 23-13 margin, helping Miller and company race out to the eight-point bulge at the half.
"I thought tonight was the first night all year long that we played as a team," pointed out the PC coach.
"Everybody that we put in the game tonight came in and did something positive, and our young kids didn't look as nervous as they did in our first few games," Miller added. "That's a good thing for us going into our game next Monday night and then the Berea Christmas Tournament next weekend."
Leading the Lady Rebels by that 34-26 margin at the intermission, Pulaski County looked to have iced this one early in the third period, thanks to back to back three-pointers by Taylor Brock and Brittany Warren, that gave the Lady Maroons their biggest lead of the night at 40-26 over the Lady Rebels.
However, there would be no quit in Casey County.
Behind Sarah Beard, Lakken Miller, and Douglas, the Lady Rebels made a nice comeback, eventually trimming the deficit down to five points late in the game, 51-46.
However, Brittany Warren connected on both ends of a one and one late, helping Pulaski County notch its first victory over Casey County in almost nine years.
More importantly, thanks to Friday night's win over Casey County, the Lady Maroons moved to 1-0 in district play and to 2-2 overall.
"We want to continue to get better, and we've got a lot of things we need to fix," Miller stated.
"We've not done a good job early in the season of taking care of the ball or stepping up to the line and making free throws, but those are things we can fix," said Miller.
Pulaski County — 2-2 on the season — will return to action tomorrow night on the road at Monticello to face the Lady Trojans, before taking part in the Berea Christmas Tournament next weekend.
CASEY CO. — Douglas 18, Cochran 11, Miller 6, Beard 5, Johnson 4, Terry 4.
PULASKI CO. — B. Warren 26, H. Warren 15, Correll 7, Brock 3, Ingram 2, West 1, Jenkins 1.

Along with showing my work locally and internationally, I am a part-time teacher of graduate painting at the Academy of Art University. I have a BA in painting and drawing from SFSU and a MFA in non-representational painting from the Academy of Art University.
