James could mean millions for Miami tourism
Category: Sports Written by Associated Press
MIAMI (AP)—Tourism promoters say LeBron James is giving South Florida a boost already. The reservations team at the Fountainebleau Resort in Miami Beach says they're getting asked about packages that include Heat tickets.
Prime 112 says athletes, sportscasters and regular diners want to know if they'll still be able to get tables at the South Beach restaurant that's bracing for even more popularity with celebrities.
Real estate agents say James' move drove up the price of at least one condo near the AmericanAirlines Arena, and home buyers want Heat tickets as part of the deal.
The star already has snack named for him: the "Le-Brat James" bratwurst at the Shake Shack in South Beach.

BYAM method teaches 'a lifestyle change'
Category: Sports Written by Genea Webb - Courier Features Writer
Curtis Smith took his love for martial arts and parlayed it into a formula for self-defense that has been used to prevent sexual, physical and criminal assaults.
The Buy Yourself A Minute Method of Personal Protection uses a behavior modification approach that teaches people how to avoid incidents before they happen. The method teaches people how to increase awareness and recognition skills so they can identify and evaluate threatening situations.
"A lot of professionals asked me to put information into a format that is easy to understand," said Smith, a University of Pittsburgh police officer and martial arts instructor. "The BYAM Method believes people are creatures of habit, conditioned to specific behaviors. With my method, people learn how to protect themselves on the street, in the car, in the home, on the phone and in many other places."

Blair gives back to city that gave him everything
Category: Sports Written by Smokin' Jim Frazier - Courier Sports Writer
Blair, an All-American at Pitt, just completed his rookie season in the NBA. He scored a season-high 28 points and had 21 rebounds in a game against Oklahoma City in January and became the first rookie not selected in the first round of the draft to post a 20-20 game in 29 years.
ALL SMILES—DeJuan Blair has a good laugh as he watches his team play in the final game of the day.

Inside Conditions...In the midnight hour
Category: Sports Written by Aubrey Bruce - Courier Sports Columnist
On Aug. 7, in Canton, Ohio, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator and former Detroit Lions defensive back Dick LeBeau will arrive to remove the cover of mortality from his bronzed likeness and usher his accomplishments as an athlete and coach into the realm of immortality (LeBeau was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the fifth round). First and foremost, I usually don't get mushy, especially about men who earn more money in a year than I will probably rake in a lifetime but economic issues aside, Coach LeBeau is truly a good guy. Not the kind of fella that speaks to you when the cameras are rolling but forgets your name as soon as the lights grow dim. Dick LeBeau is a gentleman and a scholar and the current athletes plying their trade in professional football should maybe study some of his "life film" on how to maintain a solid work ethic and professionalism on and off the gridiron. I have covered LeBeau for over two decades and as an old politician I knew from Lawrenceville. The late magistrate John J. Fiorucci used to say, "He won't change on you, he'll bring you change."

'Fight of the century' took place 100 years ago in Reno…and Pittsburgh
Category: Sports Written by Courier Newsroom
by Jared Day
On July 4, 1910, more than 20,000 spectators watched one of the most anticipated and controversial boxing matches in U.S. history when former heavyweight champion, James "Jim" Jeffries challenged the reigning champion of the world, John Arthur "Jack" Johnson, in Reno, Nevada. What made this the "fight of the century" was that Jeffries was White and Johnson was Black, and it was widely viewed as a signal battle between the races.
FIGHT OF THE CENTURY—1910 newspaper clipping shows James Jeffries on the canvas after being downed by Jack Johnson.
Whites tended to view a possible Johnson triumph with both scorn and fear. Scorn due to the widely held contempt Whites felt for African-Americans during this era considered by most scholars as the nadir in race relations in post-Reconstruction America and fear for what Black populations across the country might do in their exhilaration over a Johnson victory.

I baked half and froze the other half formed and cut into wedges on a plate. Mmmmm was all my 4 and 9 y/o kids could say! I baked the frozen scones at 425 for 25-28 minutes covering with foil to prevent over browning the last few minutes. Gave those to my mom who said they were the best scones she had ever had! And she really likes scones........ Also used raw sugar instead of regular on top for a little more crunch.

This is one of my all-time favorite recipes! My husband and I are addicted to them! I am thinking of making them for Christmas gifts this year, so the freezing-before-baking will be very handy. I am wondering too, what's the recommendation on temp and time for baking the frozen scones?

Love this recipe. I take the dough and divide it into half and then half again. Then I put chocolate chips in one, white chips in another, dried cranberries,(soak in warm water and they stay soft) and the cinnamon chips. I also drizzle them with powder sugar icing. Took them to work for a holiday lunch and they were a hit. I have found that the buttermilk is the secret to these scones, as I have made some with out the buttermilk and they were dry. Great Recipe!!

I made these at Christmas for the first time and they were a big hit. Soooo yummy and moist. I just made another batch & baked half; the other half I formed and cut into the 6 wedges, froze them on a plate, then wrapped them individually to freeze for other times. I see that many people feel that freezing these & then baking them right from the freezer makes them even better so I'm really looking forward to them, but bake for how long? There's quite a difference between the normal 10-3 minutes & the only other time I saw of 50 minutes. How long have others baked them (and at what temp) from the freezer?

I haven't made these - YET (so the rating is for the cinnamon chips themselves!) ... but I wanted to reply about where to get cinnamon chips (I have an oatmeal cinnamon chip scone recipe I make all the time). A couple years ago - they were easier to get all year round. I find they are more available around Christmas. Walmart carries them, so does Jewel (in the midwest), Kroger (in the south) as well as Lowes Foods and Food Lion. I asked a local Food Lion to order a case for me one year - I think there were 12 bags in the box. You could try asking your local grocer to order these from Hershey. OR - go to the Hershey's website and at the bottom of the page there is a "locate hard to find products" and you can find a location near you that is selling them. Good Luck! (There are MANY uses for cinnamon chips!)

MothraRocks wrote:If they're was a third ( I know they're isn't gonna be) do u think any other monsters would return other than G and MG?
I always find questions like this rather odd, because it's asking about a movie that was never going to be made. There were no plans for a "Kiryu trilogy"... during the production of TOKYO SOS, Masaaki Tezuka and Shogo Tomiyama both said that was the end of the story. So going over story ideas for a Part 3 that Toho never planned for is just fan fiction, and as fan fiction it can be whatever story and use whatever monsters you want.
Cimmerian Dragon wrote:(I always kind of assumed Kiryu to be the living Godzilla's former mate, actually. It's refusal to fight, it's relatively painless final plan to bind them together and return to the ocean, all suggested as much to me. Could also be a parent, but without another one around...ugh. I don't want any more hermaphroditic Godzillas.)
I don't recall if its official or not, but Tezuka said the two Godzillas were father and son. I don't think there's anything implying G54 was a hermaphrodite... no one was aware that the modern Godzilla even existed until it came ashore at the start of GxMG, which just sets up that mankind doesn't know if/how many more Godzillas may be lurking out at sea. The characters assumed there was only one and they were wrong so I wouldn't make the same mistake and assume there were only two.

I couldn't diasgree more.Originally Posted by Carlton Fisk
I might agree a little if he was given a $500,000 base salary, and still needed all of those incentives to make his requred unGodly sum of $8M.
But his BASE salary was still $1.5M higher than the next manager. He didn't need the incentives to still be the highest paid in the league.
Everyone's salary should be tied to their performance, I have no idea why this would be such a distraction. Do you know why they call it a 'contract year' and players seem to always have career best years in them?

Last Tuesday the Gardaí attempted to stop the Anti-Capitalist Bloc marching to join up with the Right to Work Campaign at the Dail protest. Despite riding horses into the march they failed to either deny us our freedom to protest or to provoke a response as we pushed through and around them. Join us this week, same time and same place as we once more assert our freedom to protest. [Italiano]
Last weeks demonstration ater breaking through police lines
The previous Tuesday Gardaí had used extendable steel batons against the heads of protesters trying to enter the Dail carpark resulting in at least five head injuries. And that Saturday they again attacked the éirígí protest at Anglo Irish Bank. We've seen the state react in a similar fashion to resistance in Rossport, Mayday 2004 and Reclaim the Streets. Last week hundreds of us decided it was time to say Enough, this week we hope you and many more will join us. The Workers Solidarity Movement and éirígí are calling on a second Anti-Capitalist Bloc to meet up at 19.00 sharp to march (perhaps once more with a short stop at Anglo Irish bank) down to the Right to Work protest called for 19.30 at the Dail. We think its important to once more show we won't be beaten into passivity and the greater the numbers who assemble at the Dail the clearer this message will be. We stand with the Greek workers who continue to resist the cuts and reject the demonisation of their resistance and ours that has been waged in the Irish media. Against those who say there is no alternative we declare, "They didn't share the wealth, why should we share the pain? Make the rich pay for the crisis" We hope you will join with us. Be there at 19.00 sharp. The meet up point is the Wolfe Tone statue, North East corner of Stephen Green, opposite the Shelbourne Hotel. Be there at 19.00 on Tuesday May 25th. For video and images of last week demonstration see http://www.wsm.ie/c/anti-capitalist-protest-dublin-may-...-2010

Here we are again…as my 13-year-old son Cameron says ' Time just seems to go faster and faster the older you get doesn't it?' (yes, you read it right…he is 13!) and it flew by this week. Another 7 songs for another weekend. This 7 has some Desert Island Discs included…I could never survive if stranded without The Rollings Stones and I would find it really hard to pick just one of their songs. I picked Wild Horses because Darren had a bit too much vodka one night and sang it to me while he thought I was sleeping…bad voice, good memory! Wish You Were Here is my favourite Pink Floyd song, and makes me think of my Mom. Stevie Nicks is amazing and I love everything she's ever done, but Edge of Seventeen is the very best! I could go on and on about all these songs and all the artists singing, writing and performing them; but then I might as well do a full post about them and this is neither the time nor the place…maybe I will one day, but for now I hope you enjoy them and have a fab-u-lous weekend!
Angus & Julie Stone – Yellow Brick Road You need to chill, this will wind you right down
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers – Mary Jane's Last Dance I love this man, his voice, and his guitar!
David Gilmour – Wish You Were Here for Mom x
Lucie Silvas – Forget me not Utterly breathtaking performance with the Metropole Orchestra
The Rolling Stones – Wild Horses One of my favourite bands with one of my favourite songs
Stevie Nicks – Edge of Seventeen Absolute brilliance!!
Liverpool Express – You Are My Love for Darren x
What are your Desert Island Discs? Drop me a line in the comment box, I'd love to know!

estradiol acetate ring - vaginal, Femring GENERIC NAME: ESTRADIOL ACETATE RING - VAGINAL (ES-tra-DYE-ol as-IH-tate)BRAND NAME(S): FemringWarning | Medication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage WARNING: Estrogens given alone and with another hormone (progestin) for replacement therapy after menopause have sometimes caused rare but very serious side effects. Discuss the risks and benefits of hormone treatment and your personal health history with your doctor. Estrogens have been reported to increase the chance of cancer of the uterus (endometrial cancer). Taking a progestin with estrogen decreases this risk. Tell your doctor immediately if you have any unusual vaginal bleeding. Estrogens may also increase your risk of cancer of the ovaries, stroke, dementia, and serious blood clots in the legs. Estrogen given in combination with progestin can infrequently cause heart disease (e.g., heart attacks), stroke, serious blood clots (pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis), dementia, and cancer of the breast. Some of these risks appear to depend on the length of time this drug is used and the amount of estrogen per dose. Therefore, this medication should be used for the shortest possible length of time at the lowest effective dose, so you can obtain the benefits and reduce the chance of serious side effects from long-term treatment. Also, the risks are greater with estrogen products taken by mouth, absorbed through the skin, or injected because more estrogen gets into the blood. Therefore, if you need treatment only for vaginal menopause symptoms, products applied directly inside the vagina (e.g., creams, tablets) are preferred and should be considered first. Discuss the details with your doctor and check with him/her regularly (e.g., every 3 to 6 months) to see if you still need to use this medication. Estrogen treatment alone does not appear to increase your risk of breast cancer when used for up to 7 years after menopause. However, talk to your doctor about the risks if you need to take estrogen for a longer period. Products that contain estrogen should not be used to prevent heart disease or dementia. If you use this drug for an extended period, you should have a complete physical exam at regular intervals (e.g., once a year) or as directed by your doctor. See Notes section.

Defense trying to forget 45-14 loss at ASU
By: Aaron Bennett
Updated: September 10, 2012
It was memorable for all the wrong reasons. The Sun Devils gained more than 500 yards of total offense, and the players say there was some miscommunication trying to get the right plays called from the sidelines. From beginning to end it was a mess on defense, and the players can't wait to put this one in the rear view mirror.

This is the most interesting thing I've watched in a long while.
Part 1:
There are 11 parts to it and I would definitely recommend having a watch. Try not to be put off in regard to the 'religiousness' of it because what the guy reveals is truly fascinating.
Amongst other things he shows the symbology within an ancient Sumerian engraving and how it is relevant to what is happening today.
Also - I would just like to point out that the origin of the word Christ is Kryst or Krystos meaning the soul within. I can't remember where I came across that - but I personally prefer this meaning, rather than the Christian version of seeing Christ as a man.
I would also like to add that the picture of the reptillian within Ahkenaton looks very similar to the reptillian part of our brain and I wondered if this was equivalent to our ego, which apparently arises in the primitive mind rather than the frontal lobes.
Anyway, hope you enjoy it and thanks to Witchy1 for leading me in that direction.

Linpus To Launch Moblin V2 OS Next Week
Posted by Michael Larabel on May 27, 2009
Back in February we were first to share the news that
Linpus was going to launch a QuickOS
Linux operating system. They did that, but we can now also tell you that next week Linpus Technologies will be launching a new version of their Linpus distribution that is based upon Moblin V2. One of their representatives decided to send us the information early again, and so we have it for you now.
A new version of Linpus Linux Lite will be introduced next week at
Computex Taipei
and it will be based upon the impressive
Moblin V2
work carried out by Intel. This new Linpus release is said to boot 26% faster thanks to the Moblin migration.
This release will also feature a new customized UI that is written in
complete with nice OpenGL window effects. Their user-interface is called UX and it has support for integration with cloud services, third party apps, and even an apps store. They also use the Moblin-ized version web browser, media player, and other applications.
Look for an official announcement regarding the Moblin-ized Linpus Linux Lite to come on the 2nd of June. We are very fond of Moblin V2 at Phoronix with
its very impressive user-interface
incredibly fast boot times
. Novell and other distribution vendors are also working on their own Moblin-integrated distributions to target Intel Atom devices like the
Dell Mini 9
Samsung NC10

a newbie looking for advice here. I have a netbook with GMA500 (Poulsbo) chipset. It's my first Linux machine and I have it for 10 months (of light use). Right now I have Lubuntu 11.04 on it and I already learned that Ubuntu is not my taste and I'm looking to try something different.
Initially I chose Lubuntu because the Ubuntu family got the best support for my chipset. Which turned out to be a big mess. Since a kernel update, every time I touch touchpad, X crashes. I updated to 11.10, it didn't boot. I cleanly installed 11.10, it didn't boot. I went back to 11.04...and after some time mistakenly updated the kernel again. Weirdly, going back didn't help.
OK, I would like Sabayon to be better, but I don't require it. Providing not worse experience is sufficient for me. I don't care about 3D acceleration and I don't think I care about 2D, though I don't have any experience running modern OS w/out it.
Really, I wanted to try Gentoo, but I feel I'm not experienced enough, hence Sabayon.
So here's the question:
How hard would it be to make Sabayon work on my hardware?
I read about a new open source GMA500 driver in the kernel, maybe it's usable? Maybe I could add some closed source ones?

MANATEE COUNTY — Manatee County Public Schools officials are wasting no time to install a new principal at Lakewood Ranch High School.
Angela Essig, director of secondary schools for the district, said the district hopes to have a new principal in place by July 14.
"When principals return from their vacations on July 13, (we hope to) have the new principal named and presented to the school board that evening," Essig said.
At the latest, the new principal will be confirmed by July 27, she said.
Principal Mike Wilder will continue working at the school through June 25, just days before principals normally would leave to go on their summer vacations. Wilder will begin his new role as the district's coordinator of school leadership and development, a post currently held by Dr. Lyn Boyer, after principal vacations conclude.
Essig said the administrative team at Lakewood Ranch already will have items, such as the master schedule, in place before the new principal assumes the post. Wilder will assist the new principal with the transition, and Lakewood's new leader will have until Aug. 17 to prepare for the arrival of teachers, who report Aug. 18.
The district posted the principal position for Lakewood on its Web site on June 11, and applications are due by the end of the day June 24.
Interviews with select candidates will be held June 29, and a community forum with three finalists will be held at 6:30 p.m., June 30, at the school, Essig said.
Superintendent Tim McGonegal and Lynette Edwards, assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction, are expected to interview the finalists during the week of July 6 and will use feedback from the forum and previous interviews in determining their top choice for the job.
Essig said Lakewood Ranch's scenario is not too unusual and that the district is thankful to be replacing principals over the summer rather than mid-year.
The position at Lakewood Ranch will be the eighth principal position the district has filled over the last three months. Three other East County schools, including McNeal, Bashaw and Freedom elementary schools, will have new principals next year.

The Publications Committee produces the award-winning CCBA monthly magazine, Communiqué. They share an interest in producing a magazine which is not just readable but relevant to the practice of law in local, state, and federal courts. Although many committee members have prior experience writing for their law school journals or college newspapers, such experience is not necessary. Members write articles themselves as well as solicit articles from other professionals on assigned topics. Meetings are spent brainstorming story ideas and matching topics with potential authors. The level of participation on this committee varies. A committee member can simply attend the meetings regularly and help plan the editorial calendar, or they can take on more responsibilities from writing to securing authors and articles for future issues. Some committee members serve as editors and are responsible for copy editing the content of each issue. Copy editors spend about three to five hours per month proofreading assigned sections and must be able to turn around their assignments in 24 to 48 hours.
James Harper, Esq. is Chair and Editor-in-Chief. Associate editors include Tami D. Cowden, Esq., Stacy Harrop, Esq., Trevor Hatfield, Esq., Airene Haze, Esq., Jennifer Roberts, Esq., Andrew Van Ness, and Paul Ray, Esq. The executive board liaison is Tami D. Cowden.
This committee meets at noon on the first Tuesday of every month at the CCBA offices. For more information, contact CCBA staff liaison Steph Abbott at (702) 333-2270, or James Harper, Esq.

No agreement on tax evasion, but leaders set end-of-year deadline
It was a mini-summit, not to deal with the central aspects of the eurozone-crisis, but the stuff that usually falls off the back of the agenda.
In Germany, Frankfurter Allgemeine led the paper with the news that the EU has not made progress in the fight against tax evasion. Specifically, there was no agreement to unlock the lingering dispute over the EU's savings directive, as Luxembourg continues to delay. While there is a broad consensus that the fight against tax evasion should enjoy priority, Jean-Claude Juncker blocked a concrete agreement on the grounds that he would first require separate agreements with third countries, specifically, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. The paper noted that Austria is no longer blocking an agreement, in a significant shift of position. The summit, however, agreed a timetable to pass the directive by the end of the year, at which point third-country negotiations should be at an advanced stage. Angela Merkel said everybody knows that the complete and open exchange of information over all sorts of income will become the norm in the future.
On other summit issues, Il Corriere della Sera reports that Enrico Letta pushed for a Eurozone summit on youth unemployment. Herman Van Rompuy has agreed to Italy' proposal given the gravity of the problem and the lack of a European response. The Eurozone must allow fiscal room for manoeuvre to enable member states to invest adequate resources into active labour policies, reducing taxes on labour and creating jobs for young people, Letta said.
The Greek government got what it wanted from the meeting – backing for its plans for gas and oil exploration in the Aegean, Kathimerini reports. The government believes it gets the green light to declare an exclusive economic zone in the Aegean and to search for oil and gas reserves.
Leaders also voted unanimously to continue with 'one Commissioner per country' in the European Commission until 2019, European Voice reports. The Lisbon treaty stipulates that the number should be reduced to 19 starting in 2014, but a provision introduced after the Irish No-referendum gave the Council discretion to change the time frame if voted unanimously.

Her hand shot out and twisted the porcelean handle on the bath. She vaguely thought it was funny that she would be worried about water overflowing in her circumstance. She could have laughed. But she didn't. The air stifled any kind of joy and twisted it into a sickening feeling.
Once she shut off the dripping water, she realized the silence was worse. It made room for the flood of questions. Where am I? How did I get here? She shivered....Wait - "Who am I?" she whispered the words into the air, in an attempt to appease the silence. A wave of naseating panic flooded over. She couldn't remember who she was, or where she was from. She clamored out of the tub, shivering and hugging herself. She looked down and was puzzled to see she was wearing clothes. In the bathtub with clothes. She slipped on the cold, wet floors as she made her way to the vanity mirror, glancing behind her every few seconds. The shadows looked like they had arms reaching out to strangle her. She shuddered. She peered at her foggy reflection in the mirror. A young woman, college age. Small. Straggly brown hair. Owlish grey eyes. Wearing a threadbare white tee and baggy jeans. She was dripping all over. Who am I? The water and darkness seeped into her lungs and she coughed. With trembling fingers she fumbled in her pockets for a phone. Nothing. She turned in a circle, looking for a door. I have to get out of here. I have to get out.

Part of Wall Street in Kingston honored as one of nation's '10 Great Streets of 2012' (updated)
KINGSTON, N.Y. — The eight-block section of Wall Street from Franklin to North Front streets has been designated one the "10 Great Streets for 2012" by the American Planning Association.
The designation, part of the association's Great Places in America program, recognizes exceptional character and highlights the roles that planning and planners play in adding value to communities, including fostering economic growth and jobs, according to the association.
The association said it recognized Wall Street for its historic character, many well-preserved buildings, pedestrian scale and variety of uses.
"Wall Street is a mixture of past and present, where historic buildings meet contemporary needs," association Chief Executive Officer Paul Farmer said in a prepared statement. "Evolving block by block, the thoroughfare is at the center of the commercial, political, cultural and religious activities that shape daily life in Kingston."
Mayor Shayne Gallo said on Tuesday that he was "proud" that Wall Street was recognized, especially during the tough times his city is facing.
"I am very pleased and honored that the city has received this award," Gallo said. "It is very fitting to have recognition, particularly at a time when we have so many problems and challenges."
City Planner Suzanne Cahill said the designation is significant.
"I think that it's is a recognition of the assets of the city, and it is also a recognition that having this bestowed upon the city … will not only attract additional tourism but also an appreciation for the neighborhood that exists," Cahill said.
Alderman Thomas Hoffay, whose ward includes part of Wall Street, said the street is unique, particularly because of the sidewalk canopies between John and North Front streets.
"It is a distinguishing characteristic of the city," said Hoffay, D-Ward 2. "It is what distinguishes the city from many others around the country, without a doubt." Continued...
Hoffay also cited Wall Street's various buildings, streetscape and religious institutions, including the historic Old Dutch Church, among its assets.
Through the Great Places in America program, the American Planning Association recognizes streets, neighborhoods and public spaces featuring unique and authentic characteristics that have evolved from years of thoughtful and deliberate planning by residents, community leaders and planners.
The nine other streets honored this year are Broadway in Saratoga Springs, Fifth Avenue in New York City and thoroughfares in Key West, Fla., Kansas City, Mo., Bozeman, Mont., Cleveland-Shaker Heights-Beachwood, Ohio, Pittsburgh, Pa., Charleston, S.C. and Knoxville, Tenn.
Since the association began Great Places in America in 2007, 60 neighborhoods, 60 streets and 50 public spaces have been designated in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

The reason i began the change was to heal minor problems i had that would get me down. The lifestyle change did exactly that. I feel over the years i've dealt with just enough experience to support others and share advice but i also believe that there is always new things to learn from others whilst living raw.

Among all the music and dancing Saturday around the front of the Historic Earle Theater's stage during the live WPAQ Merry-Go-Round broadcast, a quiet young man in a felt hat calmly carved a fiddle neck. He wasn't so much competing for attention as he was a reminder of the role of legacy in the music exemplified by Tommy Jarrell.
The slender woodcarver and musician was Chris Testerman, and two tables were loaded with examples of his craft — fiddles, dulcimers. artwork and displays on Jarrell were also for sale. Testerman, who grew up in Virginia's Grayson County in the Whitetop area was inspired by the renowned fiddle maker, Albert Hash.
Testerman said he became interested in being a luthier (someone who repairs stringed instruments) while he was in high school and talked with Hash's daughter, Audrey, who followed in her father's footsteps as a fiddle maker. The 16-year-old craftsman knew for certain his interest in the music and creating instruments from wood was leaving with him when he graduated from Mount Rogers High School.
He said he was playing banjo when he was 8 and had picked up fiddling by the time he was 10. He is characteristically straightforward describing this side of his love of bluegrass and old time music.
"I play a little bit of everything," said Testerman. "I just wanted to build fiddles and play like Albert Hash. It is just interesting. I like to be able to apply what I've learned and all of my fiddles are different." He said he enjoys working with wood and also does a lot of wood carving which allows him to be able to create different decorations for his fiddles, which is a trait he shares with his role model, Albert Hash.
He points out how he uses different patterns and styles of fiddle bodies to achieve a different tone from the instruments. Testerman speaks gratefully of the mentorship of Audrey Hash, who even showed him several mistakes her father had made on instruments. He smiled as he said in his trade something new is learned every day. He said he is also helped in his craft by a grant from the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities.
He said repairs on fiddles are demanding and require exact measurement. He recalled how one German fiddle he repaired was brought to him with the wood crumbling into pieces.
Testerman said he makes dulcimers and apprenticed under Whitetop's Walter Messick to learn to make them. Messick, who was a Lutheran minister, was also a student of Albert Hash. He said that although fiddles catch and hold much of his interest, dulcimers pay a lot of the bills. He said he can create a dulcimer in a day where fiddles routinely take a month. He also makes guitars and many of the fiddle bodies he reproduces are patterned after Hash's styles from the 1950s.
He even had to endure some "picking" from the other love of his life, wife and fellow musician, Erika Testerman of Mount Airy and member of the Round Peak Ramblers.
Erika Testerman smiled as she explains how she kept after Chris to make her a fiddle. She said she loves the one made especially for her from her husband and talks about their shared love for bluegrass and old time music, which brought them together.
"We both played and we went to many of the same festivals and had a lot of mutual friends," said Erika Testerman. She recalled playing at the Rex Theatre when the two were 15 and admits Chris' playing caught her attention. She said shortly after noticing him, he was absent for a while but she got to know him later. She smiled as she said the most difficult time for them can be deciding who gets to play the fiddle but it always works out fine.
Chris Testerman sat nearby, sanding while he tapped his foot in time to the music. The two, as well as the celebration seem to be a reminder that some traditions keep on going.

You are here: Home / Publications / AP: Administrative Publication / Access to Affordable and Nutritious Food—Measuring and Understanding Food Deserts and Their Consequences: Report to Congress
Stay Connected
Administrative Publication No. (AP-036) 160 pp, June 2009
This report fills a request for a study of food deserts—areas with limited access to affordable and nutritious food—from the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008. The report summarizes findings of a national-level assessment of the extent and characteristics of food deserts, analysis of the consequences of food deserts, lessons learned from related Federal programs, and a discussion of policy options for alleviating the effects of food deserts. Overall, findings show that a small percentage of consumers are constrained in their ability to access affordable nutritious food because they live far from a supermarket or large grocery store and do not have easy access to transportation.
Keywords: Food deserts, food access, supermarkets, grocery stores, food prices, low-income communities, rural areas, urban areas, small towns, transportation, obesity, diet, poverty, policy options
