GALLIPOLIS — "We must ask ourselves as a nation, 'are we serving veterans even half as well as they have served us?' As we honor our 23 million living veterans, from the greatest generation to the latest generation, let us never forget this debt that is owed."
This was the message of this year's Veterans Day parade marshal and guest speaker Michael Michalski who, as a veteran, spoke on behalf of his fellow men and women who have worn a United States military uniform, and, as a veterans' advocate, spoke to his fellow citizens who must repay the debt that is owed to the nation's veterans.
Prior to Michalski's heartfelt speech to a small crowd gathered near the Doughboy Monument in the Gallipolis City Park, Keith Jeffers, executive director of the Gallia County Veterans Service Office, spoke briefly about the duty that the veterans service commission has each year to hold the parade and subsequent Veterans Day program on the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month — even if that day is a Sunday.
Jeffers, who read a brief letter that was sent to all area churches concerning the Veterans Day program, stated that he had recently been approached about being anti-religious for holding the event this Sunday, something that he confirmed was never the case.
"There was never a war that was stopped because of a Sunday. Many a mother lost a son on a Sunday," Jeffers said to applause. "We apologize that it has to be on a Sunday, but it was the eleventh day, the eleventh month, the eleventh hour that the armistice was signed."
Jeffers who had the honor of being master of ceremonies during the event on Sunday morning also introduced the guest speaker.
Michalski, who originally hales from Mansfield, Ohio, entered the U.S. Marine Corps in 1965 and served in the far east with the 179th Battalion, 3rd Marine Division for four years in active service and, subsequently, completed two years of inactive service. He later served as the Ohio State Commander of AMVETS in 2000 and currently serves as the Outreach Coordinator at the Ohio Veterans Home in Georgetown, Ohio.
During his speech, Michalski spoke about the national debt — not the accumulation of debt incurred by the central government — but the debt all citizens owe to the men and women who have served their country throughout the nation's history.
"If you Google the term 'national debt,' you are quickly going to find and receive search results for 28.7 million websites. Most deal with the very serious issues of government over spending and the accumulation of over two centuries of federal deficits. Yet, very few bring up the biggest national debt of the them all — that which America owes to her veterans," he said.
As an example of this very real debt that is owed by the country to its veterans, Michalski relayed the story of Medal of Honor recipient and Marine Sergeant Dakota Meyer, who, while disobeying orders rushed into heavy enemy fire to rescue four missing U.S. service members who were pinned down in an ambush in eastern Afghanistan on September 8, 2009.
Heavily outnumbered, Meyer rescued 36 U.S. and Afghan troops in his first four attempts to reach the trapped men.
On their fifth attempt, Meyer and his team broke through the insurgents and, while taking fire, found that their four comrades had been killed. Meyer then carried their bodies to safety.
Two of Meyer's fellow Marines also later received the Navy Cross, the service's second-highest award for valor, for their actions that day.
"As he received his well-deserved Medal of Honor, Sgt. Meyer requested one thing, that his fallen colleagues be remembered: 1st Lt. Michael Johnson, Gunnery Sgt. Edwin Johnson, Staff Sgt. Aaron Kenefick, Hospital Corpsman 3rd Class James Layton, and Sgt. 1st Class Kenneth Westbrooke. We salute you," Michalski said while stating that all the men and women who have lost their lives for their country must be saluted for their service.
"We also honor the more than one million American men and women who have given their lives for their county since our nation's founding," he said. "Our debt to these heroes can never be repaid but our gratitude and respect must last forever. Our gratitude and respect must last forever."
While quoting historian Stephan Ambrose, Michalski commented on the wars fought by the nation's military and the need that the country has always had for its veterans who endure willingly no matter what is asked.
"It is not in the nature of America's warriors to complain. Warriors endure. Warriors make due with less. Warriors finish the job no matter how hard, no matter what is asked, but warriors need advocates," he said. "It is up to all Americans to serve veterans, their families and our communities. Veterans need each other, but, you know what, more importantly than that, our country needs our veterans."
As he continued in the vein of advocacy for the nation's veterans, Michalski answered the question of what those wishing to show their support can do to express their appreciation.
"You can show your support just as you are today," he told the crowd. "You can show your support by hiring a veteran into your workplace, by visiting a VA hospital or by donating to a veterans' program, but you can also, in another way, show your support simply by saying, 'thank you' to a veteran — the next one you meet. Try it. 'Thank you, thank you for your service.'"
The guest speaker also made reference to a 1979 book by author Tom Wolfe entitled, "The Right Stuff." While the work discusses the first American astronauts to enter space, Michalski stated that the title of the book is fitting for any person who has served their nation.
"Anyone who has worn a United States Military uniform has the right stuff," he said. "Remember that the next time you see a homeless person on the street, a man in a wheelchair or a difficult co-worker who may be suffering from PTSD."
In his closing, Michalski discussed the importance of Veterans Day. According to Michalski, Veterans Day is a holiday that may not be as celebrated or as recognized by Americans as Memorial Day or Independence Day, but it is a holiday that serves as way to appreciate those who have given individuals the right to celebrate their freedom each Fourth of July.
"This day, Veterans Day, serves a very important purpose. It is the day we recognize not just those who have given their lives, but all those who have worn a uniform of service. This day, above all, is an opportunity to celebrate the choice one makes to serve their country," Michalski said. "For some it meant the world-wide conflict of World War II, or a lifetime of peacekeeping missions or the tense standoff of the Cold War. Others found themselves in the jungles of Vietnam or Korea, Panama, and other conflicts that we have asked our military to serve over the years, and, of course, we cannot forget today. For many, service means multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan on active duty or as reservists and by guard members who sacrifice twice when give up their civilian jobs to serve their country. Through their blood, their service and their sacrifice veterans have given us freedom, security and the greatest nation on earth. It is impossible, absolutely impossible, to put a price on that.
"Let's use this opportunity now and on Veterans Day in the years to come to celebrate service to our nation, to demonstrate the appreciation we have of our military and to inspire future generations to dedicate themselves in the name of the many who have come before them. As Thomas Jefferson said, 'the price of freedom is eternal vigilance.' Today, we give thanks to live in a country where citizens from every generation willingly and courageously raised their hands to stand watch."

It was canned or maybe it will be avaliable as DLC? It looks finished and the images are from the beta arcade version. Why remove this stage when there's only 5?

Short Clip from The King of Fighters: Another Day (So far, Athena and Iori have been confirmed for the upcoming KOF XII Arcade game set for release in 2009. Hopefully the others will make it in the final product as well). Clip involves a short battle between Soiree Meira and Iori Yagami. Mai Shiranui and Athena Asamiya also appear to help Soiree. This is from the English dubbed version. Despite some fanservice, this video should be okay without an age-gate. I will repost with an age-gate if GT disagrees. As stated on my first upload, if what I upload goes against GT's ideals, I apologize in advance. For now, I look foward to posting more stuff in the future.

JPMorgan's Dimon faces senators over risking trading
U.S. senators preparing to hear testimony from JPMorgan Chase ($53.66 0.31%) CEO Jamie Dimon said they will press him to explain what led to more than $2 billion in trading losses and will be looking closely at whether they need to tighten exemptions in the so-called Volcker rule, Bloomberg reported Wednesday morning.
U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., is pushing for stronger restrictions on banks' bets with their own money through proprietary trading. He said JPMorgan took too much risk.

Advising Services—Current Students
Take Five Scholars
Academic enrichment with NO additional tuition!
Are you struggling to find the time to pursue a special academic interest that falls outside your rigorous major? Or perhaps you have recently discovered an interest but have run out of time to learn more? Maybe you're simply so overwhelmed with requirements that you have not had the chance to consider all that the University has to offer. If so, you may want to consider applying to the Take Five Scholars Program.
The Take Five Scholars Program, unique to the University of Rochester, provides an additional semester or year, tuition-free. It offers the chance to pursue a demanding major and still enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the broad-based, intellectual enrichment of a liberal arts education. Since its inception in 1986, over 1,100 students have become Take Five Scholars. The number of students enrolled in the program varies each year, with new Scholars accepted each semester.
If this sounds like something you'd like to explore, take some time to talk it over with your parents, your faculty advisors, and current Take Five Scholars. Think about a topic that you are passionate about but have not been able to study. Look through the Undergraduate Bulletin and online course descriptions, and list the courses that might help you attain your intellectual goals. Then begin to consider how you might incorporate them into a coherent and cohesive course program. You'll be on your way to creating a proposal for what may become the most exciting and rewarding time of your undergraduate years!

Bentley signs law banning texting while driving
Published: Tuesday, May 8, 2012 at 1:38 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 8, 2012 at 6:45 p.m.
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Text messaging on Alabama's public roads will be illegal starting Aug. 1 under a bill signed into law by Gov. Robert Bentley on Tuesday.
Bentley touted the measure as life-saving, comparing it to the state's law requiring motorists wear seatbelts on public roads.
"It doesn't take a lot of common sense to know that you can't text and drive at the same time," Bentley said. "I believe this will save lives."
The bill prohibits sending text messages, instant messages and emails while behind the wheel. It provides exceptions for contacting emergency services and for using global position services.
The bill's signing makes Alabama the 38th state to ban texting while driving. States that make the practice illegal include two of Alabama's neighbors: Georgia and Tennessee.
Alabama's law is a primary enforcement law, meaning any officer can issue a citation without any other traffic offense having taken place.
The law includes a fine of $25 for a first offense, $50 for a second offense and $75 for a third or subsequent offense.
Alabama Public Safety Department of Public Safety director Col. Hugh McCall said distraction from an electronic communication device caused 1,256 accidents, including five fatalities, in 2010 — the most recent year for which data is available.
"Texting while driving is distracted driving, and distracted driving is impaired driving," McCall said. He said that texting while driving caused impairment similar to driving while intoxicated on drugs or alcohol.
McCall said texting while driving takes a motorist's eyes off the road for 4.6 seconds, which would be the equivalent of traveling the length of a football field while driving on the highway.
Rep. Jim McClendon, R-Springville, said he's been pushing to pass the ban for six years.
Concerns over how law enforcement officers would be able to enforce the law or prove a driver was texting were brought up during Legislative debate over the bill. Asked by reporters how law enforcement officers would address that, McClendon said that the cellphone companies keep very good records of messages sent and received. He said officers would be able to use those records to prove that a text was sent while a driver was on the road.
McClendon said the fees were set at a low rate because teenagers were expected to be the ones most often cited for violating the ban, and their parents would likely have to pay the fine.
The bill-signing ceremony was held underneath the Alabama sun on the south side of the state Capitol building. Protesters chanting "repeal Alabama's pain" and other slogans opposing the state's toughest-in-the-nation immigration law interrupted Bentley as he was taking questions from reporters after the bill signing.

I'm interested in hearing your opinions. As a do-it-yourselfer, I'm wondering how much I need to spend on a power miter saw. I'm looking at a $200 Kobalt, 10" sliding miter, SM2507LW. Also looking at a Hitachi , 12" sliding miter, C12RSH. Both are sold at Lowes. $200 is the more attractive price point, but I don't want to spend $200 on something I'm going to regret buying. On the other hand, I'm only using it for my own home projects, so it's hard to justify $445. Projects in my future include crown molding, fascia board replacement, and maybe even hardwood flooring. What do you think? Thanks. | |||
we've remodelled our whole house, and rebuilt two walls of the shed, with a plain old $100 Ryobi 10 inch. that's after a son's buddy redid his basement with it. kinda got slammed around a bit, I had to realign the backstop with the base before doing anything serious, but it's been fine. a sliding compound miter is usually a $280 and up tool, so that's not an awful price. but consider what's needed. in addition to being stable and heavy enough so it doesn't walk around as you're starting to cut, the saw in a sliding miter is suspended on the slide tracks. they have to be greatly overbuilt to stay in line for years... or for that matter, from the start to the end of the cut. they either need linear bearings, costly, or you have Oilite bronze bushings, and either requires some effort to keep the slides clean of dust and oiled as you work. I don't do enough fine work to do all that housekeeping. and the better half is cheap. I've used one on a volunteer house rehab, and it could have used more maintenance. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
Good points about the added maintenance required with a sliding miter saw swshrad. Your comments have gotten me looking at a 12" Hitachi with no slide. It's a C12FDH selling for around $230. That's not much more than the Kobalt 10" slider and the Hitachi comes with a nice warranty and more favorable reviews. Any other opinions/thoughts on the choices available? Thanks. | ||||
I don't have a compound miter saw. I have an ordinary Makita miter saw very similar to this one: http://cdn.sulitstatic.com/ima...1950362_dsc00741.jpg And the only reason I regret buying it is because it's got a cast iron base which makes it heavy as sin. I knew I needed a miter saw, and I knew I wanted a quality one, and Makita has always had a good name when it came to tools. But, every time I do any job where I need to use my miter saw, I have to carry it with me to the job site. And, I just loath the thought of that because the thing is so heavy. I don't know if your situation is similar or different, but if you're going to have to move that saw around a lot, then get a LIGHTER saw that's truly portable. The one I have is barely luggable. | ||||
Not so sure about all that need maintance, I've had a Hitachi 12" slidder for over 5 years and have had to do no more then wipe it off when done with it. In most cases a slider has more travel. If you plan on any deck building, replacing stair treads, wide crown moulding, it's best to have more travel so you do not have to flip the board over to finish the cut. I bought a 10" Dewalt saw once and bought it back the same day and bought a 12". It would not even cut through a 2 X 8. I bought Ryobi 12" mitre saw about 10 years ago and used it almost every day for 5 years before I bought my slider and it still works fine, it's been rained on, tipped over several times, used for 8 straight hours at a time and still works. It's not precise anymore but still cuts framing lumber fine. joecaption | ||||
I can suggest you Hitachi power miter because it is good and safe for use.I'm also use this miter very long time and I've a nice experienced with Hitachi power miter. Home Improvement Worcester | ||||
Regardless of which make/model you buy, make sure you keep extra new blades handy...dull blades really make the motor work harder. Also, if you are going to do a variety of cuts, get both small teeth for your trim and larger teeth for lumbur cuts...if you ever cut something like laminate flooring, you better have extra blades...if you get expensive blades, you can resharpen the highly quality ones...cheap ones, toss. | ||||
One of my two frontrunner choices, the Hitachi 12 inch Dual Bevel, compound miter, no slide, model C12FDH, just went UP in price from $229 to $299 at Loews. What's up with that? Are they (manufacturer or retailer) figuring that the demand is so high in the summer that they can jack up the price? Does that imply that the price may come back down when the weather turns cold? | ||||

This past September marked the anniversaries of some of the most pivotal music of my generation. It has been twenty years since Nirvana shook up the pop culture macrocosm with their momentous Nevermind album, turning indie rock into a mainstream phenomenon. Pearl Jam has also reached the double-decade landmark with their album Ten, which was released just a couple weeks before. Growing up in the 90s, thirty-something music junkies like myself revel in these musical milestones, not simply for the nostalgia, but because of the actual genius of these ground-breaking stalwarts. However, there is one group whose essentiality matches that of their rocker contemporaries. Twenty years ago, A Tribe Called Quest released The Low End Theory. Hip hop would never be the same.
The Low End Theory was released on the same day as Nirvana's Nevermind in September, 1991. The similarities between these pioneering groups are quite noteworthy. Both bands were impressively polished and keenly focused before landing any big deals. Both bands released solid debut albums that helped build an eager following, and both bands subsequently blew the figurative roof off of the musical stratosphere with their sophomore follow-ups. Ultimately, both bands changed the way music could be perceived by melding aesthetics that had not been imagined previously. A Tribe Called Quest is undoubtedly the most innovative and musical hip hop group of the 1990s, and arguably of all time. Their heavy jazz influence would aggressively gift intricate harmonies, warm chord changes, and rare grooves to the genre. While the Marsalis camp pushed straight ahead jazz into mainstream relevance once again in the 80s, the early 90s would serve jazz to the collective young, Black community by melding more jazz-funk/jazz-soul leaning music with hip hop. Spike Lee's Mo' Better Blues set off the decade with a major motion picture about the life of a modern day jazz musician, (with the help of Wynton and Branford Marsalis, Kenny Kirkland, Robert Hurst, Jeff "Tain" Watts and Terence Blanchard as the actual band). The movie's soundtrack included a jazz history lesson wrapped in rap, performed by the late emcee Guru of Gang Starr, who foretold accurately, in the last line of the last verse… "The 90s will be the decade of a 'Jazz Thing.'"
Now let's flip to the first line of the first song off of The Low End Theory, where A Tribe Called Quest unabashedly coined themselves on "Excursions". With pristine diction and his signature cadence, Q-Tip flows over a lone, fat, hard-grooving bass line about his father drawing correlations between hip hop and bebop. Fresh out of the gate, Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad were making a loud and clear statement that jazz was an integral part of their musical identities. I sat down with DJ/Producer Muhammad about their recording milestone, their recent documentary, and got some backstory on their love affair with jazz.
"My introduction [to jazz] came from Q-Tip, really," credits Muhammad. It wasn't a hard sell for the Brooklyn native, who is a self-proclaimed musical sponge. Muhammad grew up listening to a myriad of Black music: Blue Magic, Earth Wind and Fire, Teddy Pendergrass, Kool and the Gang, Parliament, Slave, and his mother's personal favorite, The Spinners. Additionally, his uncle, to whom Muhammad was very close, was a bassist, and exposed him to the live local music scene. Jazz was just a heartbeat away and the progression was a natural one.
"There were a couple of other groups that were sampling jazz at that time," adds Muhammad in terms of exposure. "Gang Starr, Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth, Main Source, and even prior to us (at that point, we were the newer generation of hip hop), you had Stetsasonic, who called themselves The Hip Hop Band. This is before The Roots, but they were sampling jazz, and they even had a song called 'Talking All That Jazz', which was a very historic moment in hip hop, [because] certain artists were not embracing what the artists were doing at that time by sampling jazz. It was frowned upon. You have Marley Marl, who was also a legendary, iconic producer, and someone who's footsteps we wanted to follow; and he sampled soul and jazz. So, there were a couple of people who introduced it, but I think the way that we delivered it was in such a way that had not really been done… in that capacity, in that manner, in that sound."
While by the 1990s, artists were proving that hip hop had staying power, there are not many groups who have evoked sentimentality, relevance, and a continued sense of modernism the way A Tribe Called Quest has. Perhaps, it's for this reason which they were the subject of a recent documentary, Beats, Rhymes and Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest, the first of it's kind on a hip hop band, directed by Michael Rappaport. We learn a lot about the band, on both personal and creative fronts. Musically, you definitely come to understand the universalness which jazz offers to any musical amalgamation. The best example would be The Low End Theory's "Verses From the Abstract", which features bass legend Ron Carter, who gets a closing shout out from Q-Tip right along with Pete Rock, Special Ed, and Big Daddy Kane. A Tribe Called Quest had an ingenious way of creating a platform which was devoid of generational or cultural hierarchy, framing instead, an incessant, streamed portrayal of Black culture. On bringing Mr. Carter on board, Muhammad explains, "The whole idea of having Ron Carter playing on the record came from Q-Tip. He just has a style of playing that is perfect, and I think Q-Tip admired that. And as he does, [he would] come up with an idea of like, 'You know what would be cool? If we do this, that, such and such.' He came up with the idea, and that happened to be one of the ideas that really stuck and he was adamant about it. One phone call from one A&R, one musician and engineer, and this person, an affiliate… and next thing you know he shows up with his bass! And like the professional who a lot of those jazz greats are, you give the charts, that's all they need, they read the chart, say, 'Where do you want me to play?' look it over, 'OK play here?', do it, and then they're out [laughs]. No hanging out, no vibing, talking and kicking it… just real quick. We were just like, 'Wow, he's here,' like little puppies [laughs], and so we were really excited about him being there and grateful that he loaned himself to this project."
But hip hop wouldn't be hip hop without a little drama, right? Muhammad says curiously, "I found out later on through this journalist, I think a European journalist… he said, 'Ron Carter seems to be not too thrilled with you guys because he played on one song and apparently he's all over the record,' and we were like, 'What?' No. He played on 'Versus From the Abstract', and that's the song he's on. Some people thought we had sampled his bass and twisted it up and chopped it up and put it on several other songs, and I think maybe he even got that idea. Now, I have not spoken to Mr. Carter since, so I don't know if that's true, or just some crazy rumor that a journalist started but needless to say, he laid his signature slides down on 'Versus From the Abstract', and it was pretty dope having him on there."
This golden era of hip-hop set an unyielding precedent for die-hard fans like myself who are now frustrated with the state of today's mainstream so-called hip hop. I asked Muhammad about his thoughts on the turns the genre has made, especially as of late. In his careful and thoughtful fashion, he's quiet for a while before he responds.
"When you look at the so-called R&B charts, they've merged hip hop and R&B together so…this time in hip hop reminds me of the 80s; mostly 80s pop music," he starts. "A lot of groups like The Family, or songs like '99 Luftballoons', and all these synthy Euro-pop bands. That's what a lot of the hip-hop reminds me of now. I think it lacks a bit of soul. It lacks warmth. It lacks something that you can cling to. I can't speak for everyone else, but my love affair with music just comes from hearing what an artist is doing and being able to connect with them, and with their story and I understand the story of most of the rappers these days, but it's so self-indulgent. It's not really talking about anything that connects us as human beings. Even the music is just so cold. Like, I love chords and chord progressions. There don't have to be any vocals there…like jazz music. It just grabs your soul, and I feel like in popular black music right now, there aren't so many groups in the forefront who have that kind of pull." He ponders a while longer, before finally concluding, "I guess hip hop is always a reflection of life…I say that a lot. And right now, I think people are cold. They're going through a lot. They're suffering. We're suffering…but we're so disconnected from what I believe, is a spiritual connection. When you have an absence of God in your life and the Creator, then everything goes cold. Your soul just becomes dark, [and] you may not know why. We're in this vacuum just existing, soulless. So it's coming out in the music."
Muhammad's astute summation is rooted in both his Islamic faith and his experience in the music business, which he has often intertwined, creatively. Before releasing his 2004 solo project Shaheedullah and Stereotypes, an album which addressed head-on, his experiences being an American muslim post 9/11 and the core values of his Islamic faith, he was an intrinsic part of the necessitous and fecund neo-soul genre, which was sparked by a collaboration with the demiurgic D'Angelo on Brown Sugar.
Shaheed was introduced to the prodigious singer and multi-instrumentalist by his friend, mentor, and subsequent Lucy Pearl musical bandmate, Raphael Saadiq. "[Raphael] worked with D'Angelo, and wrote and produced 'Lady' and Saadiq is like an older brother to me," says Muhammad. "Every time he came to New York, he would look me up, and one time he said, 'I have to play something for you,' and he played me D'Angelo. Once that happened, if we were in New York, we were together. Or, we would go to Raphael's house in Sacramento and just record just for fun. Not with the intention of really doing anything with it, but then it was like this stuff is really good, we should do something with it." Lucy Pearl, Muhammad's second band, was originally formulated with Saadiq and D'Angelo in mind as the other two-thirds. Though timing did not allow (D'Angelo was in the middle of recording his Voodoomasterpiece), Lucy Pearl did release a string of danceable hits, adding singer Dawn Robinson (previously of girl-power R&B group, En Vogue) to the mix.
Muhammad's tremendous respect for and admiration of jazz has obviously helped shape his career, but it also continues to be a source of inspiration. "With Tribe sampling jazz music, it definitely brought this turn around and I think this new love affair for jazz again," he says. "There was this period — and I mean no disrespect to the legends and the greats who have paved the way, and are still staying true to the spirit of the genre — but there was this point where the face of jazz was very pop [with] smooth jazz, and Kenny G, and that was the thing, and I think that things were getting light. And here we come sampling the era and the period that was, for us, very progressive and it pretty much defined the…how should I say this… it defined the good conscious and the bad conscious of a person but put it to music. You know like, the mid to late 60s and early 70s period of jazz was really mean, and I think a lot of it had to do with the struggle, the civil rights movement, drugs, you know all these things… free love, and really taking a departure from that period of jazz that came before. Jazz musicians were really breaking off from sticking behind one strong front person and beginning to find their own voices, and individualities and it was a really rebellious things to do. So that period of jazz is what we gravitated toward and we just felt it. And by reintroducing it, but in our own way and adding our own little twist, I think it brought a greater interest back and what ultimately had come from that was this next generation of jazz musicians who grew up on hip hop, who also grew up listening to jazz. You know, you have guys like Robert Glasper who is clearly throwing it in your face [with] the stuff he's doing, you know, covers on hip hop songs but with his twist on it. But you can hear even some of the spirits of Ahmad Jamal, like you hear all these things, but there is still a rawness and an edginess to it, and the same element that makes hip hop so loved is that element of, 'I don't care what you think, I'm not trying to impress you.' Robert does it really well. You [also] have Kendrick Scott, Brian Blade, Marcus Strickland, Chris Dave…there's so many bad guys out there. I love seeing these guys play because it makes me feel like I'm in that, or of that era, when Miles was around or Max Roach…when those guys were coming of age and really leaving their mark on the art form, and on the critics, and the journalists and all that, and making the genre special, you know? I feel like I'm in that period when I'm seeing these guys play. And this is far from the lull point, this is like the beginning of what is, for lack of a better expression, starting some shit. And I think it's beautiful! I think it's so beautiful."
The contention that sometimes exists between jazz authoritarians and hip hop artists is an ironic kind for A Tribe Called Quest, who transfigured the genre specifically by marrying the two. "For all those people who were hating on hop hip, you know, the purists…at some point it's like you know, we really gotta turn that around," asserts Muhammad. We all come from the same place, and we have the same struggle and damn anyone for frowning upon the of growth of a culture, the musicians, the art form. So I think you can definitely look back to the 1990s era of hip hip and say it really changed the mood or spirit of jazz. For anyone who says something different, they're just fronters…they're haters."

WAITSFIELD — Vermont State Police say 10 cows were running loose for around an hour in Waitsfield late Tuesday night.
The Belted Galloway cows were owned by farmer Hadley Gaylord. They were located in the parking lot of the Village Grocery on Main Street.
Trooper Amber Haag said state police received the call about the wayward cows around 11:37 p.m. She said the cows were having trouble getting traction on the roads because of the salt, but none of the cows fell or were injured.
Haag said the cows were eventually herded back to their pasture by Gaylord's cattle dog and the escape did not cause any traffic disturbances. Haag said she responded in case she needed to escort the cows back home.MORE IN This Just InCOLCHESTER Two year after Lake Champlain flooding destroyed part of it, the Colchester Causeway...

How do I prepare for my spa service?
Let's just say this is your first spa experience and you have not a clue what to expect. You may even be a little nervous or worried that you are not going to act all "spa-like" and what if you do something foolish?
First things first, not all spas are created equal in the welcoming department, but trust me, we rock in the make you feel all warm and fabuous department. We are even known for being so welcoming that some clients even feel comfortable enough to come in their PJS for their evening appointments!
Spas (at least alayne white spas) are here to help you feel beautiful and welcomed, like a guest in your home. Of course we want you to have great skin and great toes, but if you feel uncomfortable or awkward at all, your first experience may be your last and that is certainly not our goal. We want you to become addicted to us so you can't think of any place you would rather hang out to get away on a mini vacation.
If you are having any body work or a pedicure or even one of our terrific facials, shave the night before your appointment if you need to shave at all. Most women get wigged out by the fact that they have stubble and are embarrassed. Honestly, we take care of hundreds of women and we are in fact women so we don't care if you have stubble at all, we don't even care if you have a week's worth of growth, trust us we won't tell a soul, we won't have candid camera come in and video you, we won't even talk about it at lunch time. We don't care. alayne white spas are here to TAKE CARE OF YOU whatever shape you are in.
If you are a guy getting a facial, shave the night before as sometimes the exfoliating after a morning shave can be a little tingly.
Try to be comfortable. As far as I am concerned after any spa service, even waxing, the last thing I would want to do would be to put on nylons or a suit, dress in your jammies if you want to, but be comfy. alayne white spas are not the type of spas that are a fashion show, you don't need to wear all of your baubles and fancy clothes, you are fancy enough in yoga clothes. Of course if you want to get all dolled up, have a good time, but for the most part we all dress very relaxed so you don't feel like you have to dress up to come to a spa and then get undressed.
If you have makeup on when you come in for any facial treatment, we take it off anyway so don't put it on special for us and frankly the less mascara, the better, it gives you more treatment time.
You may want to bring a pair of sandals so your toes have plenty of time to dry especially of you need to "beat feet" out of here (pun totally intended). We do provide disposable flip flops, but in the winter they are sometimes not enough for the slippery slopes.
Please wear underwear that you do not care about. We like to think that we will never get a drop of wax on your undies, but there is always a possibility of it. No matter what type of bikini wax you are getting from us, please wear underwear, we like to use it as a guide for our waxing and it makes for a much better bikini wax.
Please do not drink any alcohol.
Please do not go in a tanning booth or the sun 3 days prior to the visit
Please let us know if you are using any accutane or retin a or medically prescribed skin product
Relax, we are filled with welcoming love and light. We do not judge and we do not make you feel anything but comfortable. We want you to come back often and if you feel the love the first time, you will want to come often, that is our mission.
Leave most of your jewelery at home, you are going to have to take most of it off anyway and it just prevents forgetting it or losing it.
Let us know if you are allergic to anything or sensitve to anything.
TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONES, Really have we all become that important that we can't be unavailable for longer than 1 hour? What did our moms do when we were kids and there were no cell phones? Liberate yourself and turn off the cells, you owe yourself some alone time! Trust me the problems and the emergencies will be there and what are you going to do about them while you are laying on the table anyway except have the call ruin your whole experience.
Please do not drink any alcohol.
Please do not go in a tanning booth or the sun 3 days prior to the visit.
Please let us know if you are using any accutane or retin a or medically prescribed skin product.
Please do not come in with a sunburn.
Do not come in if you are sick. We do have a cancellation policy, but we don't want you to come in sick and will not charge you if you need to cancel due to illness.
Do not come in if you have a sick child at home because you are worried you will be charged for a last minute cancellation. We are reasonable and we are also moms and there is no way you will enjoy a much needed spa service if your babes are sick and you have to leave them with someone else.

Some say that once you start an online life you give up your privacy. Your footprint soon travels in cyberspace. How often do we hear that once you've posted that picture, or uttered those words, they are out there forever?
There's a lot of truth in that. I can find at least one personal website that I created back as far as 1997. Much of the information is inaccurate now, of course. For a start I'm 13 years older. I've also re-married, changed careers, and moved since then.
The point is, it's still out there 13 years later. If I'd been a gigolo or a porn star, and made a web site about that, chances are that it would still be out there too. Perhaps I'd then be worrying every day that my new boss was going to find out. Perhaps I'd thought about running for some political office, and would be scared my dark past would come back to haunt me.
Of course, it's down to the individual.
One downside is that where we're younger, wilder, perhaps a bit more immature, it seems great fun to post endless pictures of the wild nights in the bar, or, perhaps worse, videos of us having rowdy drunken fun. *
There's a lot of talk recently about Facebook privacy. Many people post much information about themselves there. Twitter is another place where you see a surprising amount of personal information posted.
I would always recommend discretion myself. My take on it is this. I don't really have any skeletons in my closet, but I've always worked on the premise that I only tell people what I want them to know. If I don't tell you about the red and green striped wart on my rear end, you can't even go and mention that to someone else by mistake, or because you were bursting to tell someone. I'm not burdening you with MY secrets that way. It's similar online but for one BIG difference.
Back in say 1990, if someone took photographs of my drunken antics in the bar one evening, it would be something to giggle or groan at the following week among our group. Nowadays, they're invariably posted on a service such as Facebook, often as they happen. By the time you sober up and realize, and contact your friend to get them taken down, millions of people, including a prospective employer may have seen them. Also, your friend may have posted them in other places you're not even aware of!
The big complaint though about privacy on services such as Facebook is that many users feel that they're not in control of what get posted publicly and what doesn't. It should be the case that YOU can decide what is public in your profile and what is private. However, at the end of the day, don't post anything online that you want to keep private. If, for example, you're sensitive about your age, don't put your full date of birth up there for everyone to see!
Same goes for anything else. Whatever service you use, if you really don't want anyone to know about it, don't put it online. Keep it locked away in your mind.
Many people feel that when they leave a service, they should be able to delete any information about themselves that is held by that service. Great idea, except we come back to that 1997 example I wrote about earlier. I left that ISP and the web space that went with it back in 2001, when I first got broadband, and the site itself had been changed a lot between 1997 and 2001 in any case. Data spreads around the Internet, that's the nature of the beast.
Oh and as an aside don't forget that when you get rid of a computer, be sure to delete the data on the drive first. Use a decent deletion utility – not just reformat the drive. If the data is really sensitive, consider removing the drive from the machine, and using it in a new machine, or if it's too old or small, physically destroy it. Am I being over dramatic here? Better to be safe than sorry!
As a small business IT consultant, I am still surprised at some of the data that gets left on old computers that I get asked to dispose of. I guess I shouldn't be by now.
Ultimately though, you ARE in charge of your privacy on social media sites. If it's THAT private, don't post it!

I know this is probably old hat to many of you. The thing is, there is just so much out there online now, it's impossible to find everything. Anyway, I found Meetup
It's different to most social media sites, in that this one encorages you to get off your rear end, and go out and do other, mostly non-computer related stuff, outside the home, and meet new people in person.
I've already joined eight groups, and RSVPed that I will attend 4 meetings over the next few weeks.
If The Eye goes a bit slient you'll know why. I'm having a blast out there somewhere…

Software Design Approach At Apple Changing?
What sort of progress has been made in Apple's new approach to design since Jonny Ive has started to influence the software side of things? Not much, yet.
Jessica Lessin, Apple Design Teams Get Cozier
Some suggested that in Apple's next mobile operating system, Ive is pushing a more "flat design" that is starker and simpler, according to developers who have spoken to Apple employees but didn't have further details. Overall, they expect any changes to be pretty conservative. For the past few years, Apple has unveiled versions of its mobile operating system in the summer.
Design is one example of the increased "collaboration across hardware, software and services" that Apple said it was aiming for when Cook pushed senior vice president and mobile software chief Scott Forstall out of the company last year.
The move united Apple's Mac and iOS software teams under senior vice president Craig Federighi. Change in that new group is happening slowly.
Federighi has indicated to some employees that he plans to keep the Mac and iOS engineering teams separate for now, one of the people said. There is lots of overlap between the two groups, such as two teams working on calendar software; whether the two would be combined after Federighi took over both was a big question among employees in the division, the people close to the company say. One of the people said that some employees are expecting further reorganization of the two groups this summer.
Sounds like we should look at the next round of calendar software to see what 'flat design' means. At the very least, can we get rid of the dumb skeuomorphs, like leather and stitching? Here's a mock-up:

Here'a my contribution reminding us that everyone has one:
Hi Rhonda, I must be losing some marbles. Your name sounds familiar, but GPB isn't registering. Could you help me out by watching the video, commenting and voting?
I'm in a contest, which if I win, would allow me to reach more people. I'm asking for votes to help me do that. Where's the sales pitch? I offered to work with clearing your subconscious traumas, kelly, for free. Where's the sales pitch???????????
Ok, Kelly, that's your perspective. I love you whether you like or share my perspective or not. Can we find harmony there?
lol..Kelly..u becoming a little paranoid with this "sales pitch" thing... why do u care??
..even if it is a "sales pitch"..it cannot bother u...u just register there for to vote, if u liked the message..
it is a contest for various speakers there... probably there are many more good ones there... but i dont know any, and i dont have time to sit and watch what everyone there has to say... so i just gave a vote to Michael here who posted his request... and just finished the whole thing...
Over 63 years ago now,-- my Mum told me be careful who you hang around, first impression may not be what they seem. And she always said --- you become what you digest.
You know I was just thinking about something my dad always said to me when I was growing up. "Show me your friends, and I will show you your future"
Yes Exactly. :>)
..here the saying goes like this: "Show me your friends, to tell you who u are"...
So if my friends are bank robbers, are they going to tell me i'm and undercover cop?
or if my friends are all spiritualy self empowered, are they going to tell me I'm not.?
If my friends are self lit. that tells me i'm standing in the mist of a bond fire. choose the light you stand near and let it shine. its not about words, or there deseptions off the tonges of Guru's its all about let this little light shine. together we create a bond fire. giving your light (energy) to some one else evenuallly you'll wind up standing in the dark yet again. show it but protect it. john xoxo
..u didnt get the meaning... it means that your environment affects your personality.... u are shaped by this which u choose to surround yourself...
I'm pretty sure Past Lives and Genetics affect your personality also...
V4vp -- Your right for the most part but, but this didn't work for Job in the bible, all his friends turn on him when he lost all his 3D worth, and health. but his core was still lit, even if he was the only one that could see it. but i do understand your meaning.
aaah TD true but now we have the chance to keep it lit and not give it away or fallow history.
