The modern country music establishment in Nashville — meaning since Hank Williams died in 1952 — can be traced back to a triumvirate of producers who made the country music industry what it is today. The production approaches of Owen Bradley, Chet Atkins and Billy Sherrill set standards that haven't changed much since the trio's heyday from the 1950s to the 1980s. Bradley and Atkins have both passed away in the past several years, and Sherrill retired in the late 1980s. But not before he made dozens of landmark, career- and genre-defining hit records for Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Barbara Mandrell, Tanya Tucker, Johnny Paycheck, Janie Fricke, Charley Rich and many others. "Stand by Your Man," which Sherrill wrote and produced for Wynette, is all over the cultural landscape, from its use in the Blues Brothers' classic film to Nancy Reagan's reference to it in defining marriage.
Sherrill was born in 1936 in Alabama, not far from Muscle Shoals, where he and his best friend, Tom Stafford, did demo recordings in a room upstairs from the drug store Stafford's father ran. The son of an evangelical preacher, Sherrill played piano at church weddings and funerals, as well as saxophone in the high school band. But he was lured by the sounds of R&B and rock 'n' roll, and was soon playing in bands throughout the mid-South. By the time Sherrill got to Nashville, in the late 1950s, Atkins and Bradley had established recording protocols that were already deeply entrenched. Sherrill viewed both men as role models, but he also brought his own ideas to the table; he ushered in a lush, highly produced sound that brought many new listeners to country music, and he is credited with bringing in the auteur approach to making records: He wrote, played, produced, engineered and served as an executive for a major label (Epic). Writing the songs his artists cut or owning part of the publishing earned him serious enmity from Nashville's elite songwriting community. But if you look at the business today, there are few producers in country music — or in most other genres — who don't follow that practice to some degree.
Sherrill has come out of retirement to cut a gospel album with George Jones, scheduled for release later this year. His career, from his early days in Nashville until this much-anticipated comeback, has been, as he puts it, "quite a ride."
When you were growing up in Alabama, you learned piano and played a lot of church music, but then you got hooked on jazz and R&B as a sax player. What caused that shift?
Starvation. Do you realize what a Southern Baptist evangelist makes a year? I'm not talking about Jim Bakker. My dad was being paid in cabbages and pigs, milk and fruit. There wasn't a whole lot of money in church music, but there was some in rock 'n' roll.
What were your earliest recording experiences like in Alabama?
You can't really call them sessions. Everyone was learning as we went along — the engineers, the producers and the musicians. We were just mostly doing demos, never really master sessions. Just an old Ampex recorder and no sound at all, really. This was before they built the studio in Muscle Shoals.
You came to Nashville by accident — a royalty check in the mail you weren't expecting. What was the Nashville music scene like at the time in terms of making records?
I was playing for $30 or $40 a week in a square dance band in Alabama, and I had sent a song I had written to Tree Music up in Nashville. Never knew what happened to it until I get this check for $4,000 in the mail! It seems Bob Beckham [then a recording artist but destined to become one of Nashville's music publishing moguls] cut it as a B-side. I figured I was in the wrong place, and I headed up to Nashville. Me and a few friends started a demo studio in the Cumberland Lodge [now the site of the National Life building in downtown Nashville] — Bill Cooner was the money man, and he put up $10,000 to build the studio; Doug Warren was the starry-eyed singer type; and me. [Sun Records and Sun Studios owner] Sam Phillips was looking to put a studio in Nashville, he saw ours and he bought it. Everyone else left, but I hung around and started learning.
The studio had a huge tracking room, about the size of a basketball court, with really high ceilings. Sam had hired guys to glue insulation to the ceiling, and they were working up on scaffolds. One of them got high from the glue and rolled off and fell down 20 feet. The place had the Memphis touch of Sun — wooden louvers on the walls that could be opened and closed to change the room's sound. The studio had a live echo chamber that was the size of half a basketball court, which Sam had shellac painted on the walls to give it that shiny sound. We also had some EMT plates. Sam hired me to be a mixer, at $55 a week, and I did that while also doing a regular rock band gig in Fort Campbell, Kentucky, with [FAME Studios owner] Rick Hall. It was a helluva time, wonderful. We had all kinds of music we were recording and playing. We lived in this dream world where we could sleep till 3 p.m. every day. When the sessions were over for the night, I would stay at the studio and record stuff with me playing all the parts. [Sun's Nashville facility would become Monument Studios later in the 1960s, when Monument Records owner and Roy Orbison producer Fred Foster bought it.]
When you went to work for Epic in 1962, you began to develop a production style. Did it run up against the conventional Nashville way of doing things? Were you incorporating production styles from different styles of music?
I was low man on the totem pole. They sent artists down to my office that no one else could do anything with. They didn't want to drop them, so they figured, give the new guy a shot. In terms of production, I was stealing from everyone — Chet, Owen, Phil Spector. If you asked me who was the greatest producer around, I would say there was Owen Bradley, and then there was everyone else. He cut stuff 50 years ago that sounds like it was recorded yesterday. I was in awe of Owen and Chet. But I couldn't just walk up to Chet Atkins. It was like walking up to the President of the United States. I was shy. I was a kind of loner. I wasn't part of that Nashville society of the music business. And [all these] years later, I'm still a loner.
David Houston was the artist you first clicked with, and it was an early example of you writing the song and producing the record.
What got everyone's attention was "Almost Persuaded" [co-written by Sherrill], which we did as a B-side for David [in 1966]. Back then, selling 30,000 albums was amazing; 25,000 albums got you to Number One. I get this call at Epic from a distributor, Comstock, in Atlanta. Guy says, "Send down 10,000 copies of the record." I'm wondering, "Is this some kind of mistake? Isn't this a country record?" Later that afternoon, he calls back and says, "Better make that 20,000." That song stayed at Number One for 13 weeks, and it sold 250,000 copies. [The song won the Grammy
In Nashville, nothing succeeds like success.
I guess. After that, no one ever mentioned budgets to me.
But that went against the Nashville way, too — the division of roles of producer and songwriter. Did you catch heat for that?
That was kind of a conflict. I had gotten wind that the songwriters were annoyed by it. One guy says to me, "You got a lock on this now — you write the song and you're a VP at Columbia Records and you record it." I said I would only record it if it was the best song. But it still bothered me. So I called up [Columbia Records president] Clive Davis and said, "I'm coming to New York, I want to talk to you." I walked in his office and told him about the feedback I was getting in Nashville, how people said what I was doing wasn't fair. And Clive said to me — and I will never forget this — he says, "Who am I?" I said, "You're the president of Columbia Records." He says, "Can I fire you?" I said, "Yes, you can." He said, "Do want to get in trouble with me?" I said, "No way." Then he said, "So get back down to Nashville and keep doing what you're doing and making hit records."
What was that first meeting with Tammy Wynette like in 1966?
She came to the office, and my secretary told me a girl was here to see me. I was thinking, "Oh, man, it's 4 o'clock," and I was ready to get out of there. I actually forgot she was there and I went to leave, and an hour later she was still sitting there. Her real name was Virginia Pugh. So, I invited her in. She had a weird little demo tape that was pretty mediocre. She did have a different type of voice, but the song wasn't very good. I told her, leave your number. If I ever get the right song, I'll call you. I could see the hope draining out of her. She told me I was her last stop, that she had to go back home the next day.
So she went back to the Anchor Motel, where she was staying with her two kids. I felt bad, but the song just wasn't there. Meanwhile, I was trying to pick up a master recording to a Fuzzy Owen song called "Apartment #9." I wanted it, but they were saying, "We think this is gonna be a hit, and we're not giving it out to anyone." They were kind of smart-ass about it, and that rubbed me the wrong way. I thought, I bet Virginia could sing this one. So I called her at the Anchor Motel and told her, "I have this song I want you to record tomorrow night." She says, "Please don't joke with me." I told her I wasn't joking. She showed up at daylight the next morning to learn the song. We went into the studio [the Quonset Hut, Owen Bradley's old studio that had become part of Columbia Records] and cut it. And I tell you, when she sang the first line, [musicians] Jerry Kennedy looked at me and Bob Moore looked at Buddy Harman and we all went apeshit. This was a great voice.
How did your productions evolve over time?
The sound got lusher. I liked the way violins sound on a love song. I don't want to hear a [pedal] steel on a love song. My records were smoother-sounding than a lot of people wanted on a country record. That's why a lot of them crossed over to pop.
What were you like working in the studio? You were bringing in some non-traditional approaches to Nashville records. How did the musicians and engineers react?
I knew what I wanted to hear, and [the musicians] knew what they wanted to play. Sometimes, it happened to be the same thing. But there was always mutual respect. I worked mostly at the Quonset Hut, because that was Columbia's studio and there were union rules in those days. The engineers were staffers and they were union, and I could not touch the board. It took two engineers to run a session — one on the board and another to run the machines. Also, you couldn't overdub. The A.F. of M. laws wouldn't let us. If I finished a track and decided I wished I had a harp on it, I would have had to go back and pay all the musicians all over again. So, I did a lot of cheating in those days. But the engineers were good — guys like Selby Cofeen and Ron Reynolds — and I learned from them. I knew what they knew and they knew what I knew, so we got along.
Did you like working at the Hut?
Oh, yes. It was a place where the guys didn't have to lock themselves into a little world of earphones. They could hear each other play without them. But in the '60s, earphones suddenly came in like the plague — the first 30 minutes of a session were now taken up by guys asking the engineer to turn them up and turn the drums down. One day, I just blew up and told everyone to take the damned 'phones off. I said, "Trust me, if it sounds good to me, that's all that matters." There were other studios around, but most were owned by labels and every label had to use their own studio.
How did you get together with George Jones?
He fell in love with Tammy Wynette. Unfortunately, he was still married at the time, and on another record label. I signed him to Columbia.
That must have made for interesting sessions when they did all those great duet records. How did you record them?
It did increase my scotch intake some. We started out trying to record the vocals together, but George drove Tammy crazy with his phrasing. He never, ever did it the same way twice. He could make a five-syllable word out of "church." Finally, Tammy said, "Record George and let me listen to it, and then do my vocal after we get his on tape." Tammy was a very quick study. With George, I don't think he had ever been truly "produced" before. Pappy Dailey was listed as the producer before me, but the musicians really produced those records. Pappy owned the record label. What I thought about George's voice, and I told him, was, "You whine too much. You've got a good range, let's mellow you out." He has an unbelievable low, bass-type voice that, when it's on tape, sounds amazing. I wanted more of that, and we used more ballads to get it.
How involved were you in choosing equipment like microphones? Did you have preferences for each artist?
Not at all. The engineers did it. I really didn't know one from the other. I just knew what sounded good. I liked the big [large-diaphragm] microphones. But we'd try a few till we found one that sounded good, and stayed with it for years.
You stayed with Columbia's studios for a long time, but did you consider going elsewhere to record country or anything else?
I did the Staple Singers in a Chicago church. This was in the late 1960s, and the riots were going on. Pop Staples was a cool guy. He called and asked when I was coming in. He said, "Go straight to the hotel. I'll pick you up. You're not riding around Chicago by yourself." I also recorded James Taylor in New York for a duet with George [Jones], and I did one Janie Fricke record in Muscle Shoals. But, otherwise, it was always Nashville. That city simply has everything you need to make a good record.
Country music has had an obsession with youth lately, with artists like LeAnn Rimes and Billy Gilman. But you worked with the first teenage superstar, Tanya Tucker. What was that like?
Tanya was 13 years old when we did "Delta Dawn." But she grew up real fast. She was young, but not a kid, if you know what I mean. We knew "Delta Dawn" was going to be a hit, and we had to get an album together real fast. But the publishers were sending me kids' songs. I had to convince them I wanted grown-up songs for her. We were doing pretty gothic stuff — "What's Your Mama's Name," that sort of thing. She could sing that very convincingly. Nashville thought I was getting a little too blue with her, too adult. But her voice did the talking for her. She was very good, always sure of herself. She was never nervous about anything. And her vibrato tore me up. It reminded me of Kitty Wells.
You were a VP and an executive producer for Columbia through much of the 1980s, but you slowed it down during that period. Did you retire, or did you just get tired?
I got tired of it. I burned out. The way I look at it, if you're a record producer and you dread going into the studio with George Jones, then it's time to stop and smell the roses. It wasn't the actual making of records, but doing the same thing all the time that got to me. The title meant nothing to me. Clive gave it to me, and I said thanks and just went back to making records. But when I was making records, the whole thing felt like a 25-year vacation.
How do you feel about how the recording process has changed?
I never paid attention to the transition from analog to digital. All I knew was that there was a little less hiss and it sounded a little cleaner. But there were some things I didn't care for about the way making records had changed. I got a call from [producer] Norro Wilson a few months ago, and he wanted me to help out on a Lorrie Morgan track of a song I had written. I got to the studio, and the drummer worked on the drum sounds for nearly an hour. Same on the guitar sounds. I couldn't stand it. There's no reason to take an hour to get drum sounds. It's like killing a fly with a sledgehammer. And radio's gonna roll it all off at 4,000 cycles anyway. I was wired and bored at the same time. The whole recording process has gotten kind of gratuitous. I had done a session with Johnny Paycheck years ago, and I never even went to the studio. I had a line run up to my office. I told him, "You know the songs, just sing them." I'd call down to the engineer and tell him to turn up [steel player] Pete Drake a little or something like that.
The new project you're working on is a George Jones gospel album. How does it feel to be back in the producer's seat?
I did it because George is comfortable with me, and I'm comfortable with him. And it'll be nice working with The Statlers and The Jordanaires again. But it's pretty cut-and-dried. If the right thing came along, I'd jump out of my chair in a heartbeat. But seldom do I hear anything like that. Tim McGraw's "Please Remember Me" — I had to pull over to the side when I heard that one. But there's not many like there used to be. Right now, I've got a boat in Panama City [Fla.] and a boat in Nashville. I've turned doing nothing into an art form.

The Turner Family
For most of her life, Anita Turner has been fleeing from harm - the harm of growing up in a drug-addled home, the harm of abusive relationships, and the harm of living on the streets with three young children. As a child, Anita witnessed her mother succumb to drugs and wound up with little guidance or support as she became a parent herself.
Ray-Shawn, the oldest at 16, has dreams of being a music producer. TLC helped him pursue his passion by offering a computer lab and other technology that he never had access to on the streets.
By 23, Anita had three children and no education or employment. The family shuffled between motels, shelter programs, and the streets. It was not until Anita was referred to L.A. Family Housing that she finally stepped through a corridor to constancy and strength. In January 2008, Anita and her kids, Ray-Shawn, Anitra, and Antonio, moved into the Sydney M. Irmas Transitional Living Center (TLC), LAFH's family shelter in North Hollywood.
"I made bad choices. I was always looking for the easier way, the quicker way." Greg had a loving family and owned two homes. Alcoholism and drug addiction slowly consumed him. His only home soon became a bench in North Hollywood Park. For five years, Greg toiled on the streets. He became resigned to the fact that he'd never see his two grown children again.
Greg tried treatment programs with limited success. In 2008, however, something clicked. "I got tired of sleeping in the rain." Even more, he missed his family. He entered treatment at People In Progress, an LAFH service partner, and completed a six-month recovery stay. From there, he secured temporary housing placement at LAFH's Trudy & Norman Louis Valley Shelter, where he stayed sober, began building his income, and worked to find a supportive permanent home.
I changed my whole way of thinking at LAFH. They work with you and give you respect. They encourage you. I'm ready for a nice little place, even one room. Just a place to call home.
The Fontes Family
Christina remembers two years ago when her 8-year-old son, Randy, asked, "Mom, when are we gonna get a home?" At the time, the Fontes family was sleeping in the back of their rusted '92 Ford Explorer in a Ralph's parking lot. It was around the same time that a new sign appeared in front of their truck: No Overnight Parking.
Since Christina and her husband Carlos lost their jobs in late 2008, the Fonteses were homeless. They had tried shelters that could only accommodate single parent families, but the kids, Randy and 11-year-old Cassandra, insisted on the flatbed over the cot to keep their family together. Forced from their temporary parking space, the Fonteses found refuge in a family shelter on Skid Row. The neighborhood was too rough for the children, though, and once a unit became available at Comunidad Cesar Chavez, LAFH's emergency family shelter in Boyle Heights, "a whole new world opened up for us."
Once stabilized at LAFH, Randy began earning straight As in the fourth grade and took a lead role in Student Council at Korenstein Elementary.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
I have been collecting all of them since I was in high school. Please get in touch with me, too! :)
Here is my email: missy @missykulik.com
Thanks, Charlotte!
I collect vinyl records, and I agree, most people are all surprised that I do it but not at all surprised that my boyfriend does...so weird.
yeah yeah yeah!
hi! i am actually pretty new [within the past few years] to collecting but i have built up a pile of a few hundred awesome cassette tapes! i am so into it, always looking for more. i would love to be interviewed!!!
I collect records and have a modest cassette collection! My partner does too (records, no cassettes), but although we've lived together for 10 years, I'm adamant about keeping my collection separate! Partly because I do feel an obligation to buck the idea that the records are the guy's hobby! I kept my record player and use it in my studio, even though he has a nicer one.
One big difference between our lp collections is size - his is roughly twice the size of mine, I have about 250. His 'collector' mindset drives him to own albums he thinks are important; and to have multiple copies of albums (shittier quality ones to play on his portable players that are hard on vinyl); and to own the entire discography of a favorite artist, even though those last few albums suck and he never listens to them. Etc.
Whereas I am always whittling mine down into a well-edited concentration of albums I love. No Zeppelin, no Tiny Tim, no late Neil Young, no Captain Beefheart (sorry).

The reaction to Oklahoma's rejection of a state-run health insurance exchange has been varied throughout the state.
Oklahoma is one of a number of states that rejected creating the exchange, which is required under the new federal healthcare law.
Some applaud the decision, while others are critical, saying thousands of people need to get guaranteed healthcare coverage and the exchange would have made it easier for them to find affordable options.
But there are some who have a different take on the entire debate, who don't have health insurance, not just because of cost, but also by choice.
11/29/2012 Related Story: Oklahomans Split On Healthcare Exchange Decision
In a perfect world, and with a better budget, Sapulpa resident Kristy Alger says she'd have health insurance, but it's been 15 years since she's had any.
Alger said, for her, not having health insurance has not been a big issue.
She pays $75 per visit, twice each year.
"I'm fine with paying 150 dollars a year compared to two or three hundred dollars out of every paycheck," Alger said.
Those high premiums are why she doesn't have health insurance.
"To me, it's worth paying just that much to go to the doctor when I need to," Alger said.
Although her biggest concern in paying as she goes is if something catastrophic or really expensive happens, Alger says it's a risk she's willing to take.
"If it happens, it happens. I can't worry about that," Alger said.
It's been her experience that her doctor and hospitals will work with patients on payment plans for any outstanding bills.
6/28/2012 Related Story: Oklahoma Lawmaker Explains Insurance Exchanges
And she said finding a doctor wasn't hard.
"I don't feel like my care has suffered in the least," Alger said.
Plus, she said not having insurance has simplified things, since there's no paperwork.
She said she worries that will change with President Obama's new health insurance mandates.
"We shouldn't have to be made to do something," Alger said. "[I] feel like they're making us do something we can't afford to do."
Alger said there are still so many unknowns, but she worries more government regulations could cause a lot of unintended and negative consequences.
"It's just going to be a little bit crazy, I'm afraid," Alger said.
Alger said she fears one of those unintended consequences would be having a harder time getting in to see doctors when you need to, and fewer people choosing medicine as a profession, because of government regulations.

Former A123 battery maker settles with Fisker AutomotiveBy Bloomberg
The bankrupt electric-car battery maker formerly called A123 Systems Inc., now renamed B456 Systems Inc., reached a settlement in which Fisker Automotive Inc. reduced its claims by 89 percent to $15 million. A123 has plants in Livonia and Romulus. The agreement with the bankruptcy's unsecured-creditors' committee will substantially cut Fisker's $140 million in claims stemming from a rejection of its supply agreement and alleged breach of warranty obligations, according to court documents filed Tuesday in Wilmington, Del. The deal will benefit all unsecured creditors, the committee's lawyers said. "This reduction will have a substantial positive effect on the value of other unsecured claims," lawyers for the committee said in a court filing. The committee "analyzed the Fisker proofs of claim, and the committee believes that the settlement embodied in the stipulation represents a compromise that is the best possible outcome" for B456's estate. Fisker's breach-of-warranty claim will be reduced from $48.7 million to a $15 million unsecured claim and its $91.2 million claim for damages from the rejection of its supply agreement will be disallowed, according to court documents. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Carey approved A123's disclosure statement, an outline of its liquidation plan used by creditors to decide how to vote on the plan, according to court documents filed March 14. The company will seek court approval of the plan, which includes distributing the proceeds from selling substantially all of its assets, at a hearing scheduled for April 30. "This settlement provides that Fisker shall support the plan, and therefore this settlement moves these cases closer toward the ultimate goal of confirmation," the creditors' committee said in court papers. The Waltham, Mass.-based company filed for bankruptcy in October after a previous deal with Wanxiang Group Co., China's biggest auto parts maker, was scuttled amid congressional Republicans' reluctance to allow its sale to a Chinese company. A123, which was awarded a federal grant of as much as $249.1 million and only used about $132 million to build two plants in Michigan, listed assets of $459.8 million and debt of $376 million as of Aug. 31 in court documents. The company got court approval Dec. 11 to sell the majority of its assets to Wanxiang's U.S. unit. Wanxiang America Corp. acquired substantially all of A123's automotive, grid and commercial business assets for about $256.6 million. The deal received approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. on Jan. 29. Topics in this article: Crime/Courts

Bay of Pigs See Bay of Pigs |
The location of a failed attempt by Cuban exiles to invade Cuba in 1961. The invaders, numbering about fourteen hundred, had left after the Cuban Revolution and returned to overthrow the new Cuban leader, Fidel Castro; they were trained and equipped by the United States Central Intelligence Agency. The operation was a disaster for the invaders, most of whom were killed or taken prisoner. The Bay of Pigs incident is generally considered the most humiliating episode in the presidency of John F. Kennedy, who had approved the invasion.

Adm Hutchinson Ingram Cone
You are taking a random walk through our online cemetery.
Apr. 26, 1871
Columbia County
Florida, USA
Feb. 12, 1941
Hutchinson Cone, Sr. His wife was Martha (nicknamed Patty) Bland Selden. He was the son of Daniel Newnan Cone.
Hutchinson Ingham Cone, Sr. was a famous naval engineer and naval officer. He was born in April 26, 1871 in Benton, Florida, the son of Daniel Newman Cone, Jr., later a member of the Florida legislature, and Annette Ingham Cone.
He had three siblings and was a great-great-grandson of Revolutionary War hero, Captain William Henry Cone; a great-grandson of William Cone, Jr. who served in both the Georgia and Florida legislatures; and a grandson of Daniel Newman Cone, Sr., a law enforcement officer who died in the line of duty. Hutchinson graduated from both Florida State College and the U. S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.
He married Patty Sheldon Cone from Kempsville, Virginia on October 19, 1900. They were the parents of Hutchinson Ingham Cone, Jr., later a Lieutenant Colonel in the U. S. Army.
During the Spanish-American War, Hutchinson Cone, Sr. served as Assistant Engineer on the U.S.S. Baltimore during Commodore George Dewey's victory over the Spanish at the Battle of Manila Bay in the Philippines in 1898. In 1900 he was a Lieutenant on board the U.S.S. Prairie. Cone supervised the shift from coal to oil fuel to increase the operational radius of the U. S. Navy, and he was involved in trials of a turbo-electric propulsion system. He commanded the U.S.S. Dixie from April 1914 until July 1915, when he became Marine Superintendent of the Panama Canal. Later he commanded naval air forces in Europe during World War I. Cone was wounded while freeing lifeboats on the RMS Leinster, on which he was a passenger; for his lifesaving actions he was made an honorary commander of the Order of the British Empire. Cone retired from the Navy in 1922 as Engineer-in-Chief, with the rank of Rear Admiral. He later served with Charles Lindbergh on the Board of Directors of the Guggenheim Fund to support flight.
Cone's diary is in the archives of the Library of Congress. The diary was kept by Cone while serving on the cruiser Baltimore between April and August 1898 in the Philippines theater of the Spanish-American War. Entries contain descriptions of the Battle of Cavite and the Battle of Manila Bay, poetry commemorating the battles, newspaper clippings, and newsletters from the Baltimore. It also includes a blueprint map of the Battle of Manila Bay.
He is buried with his wife in Arlington National Cemetery.
The U.S.S. Hutchinson I. Cone, named for the Rear Admiral, was a World War II-era destroyer that saw action in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. In 1962 it recovered astronauts Alan Shepard and John Glenn after their historic manned space flights.

What can you do with a degree in Biblical or Theological Studies from Judson? With the academic, personal and professional skills gained through these majors, graduates pursue rewarding careers in:
Often Biblical and Theological Studies graduates pursue further education in seminary, university graduate programs, and other professional programs.
Judson prepared me profoundly for daily ministry in the pastorate. Interpreting the Bible and other classes that focused on interpreting specific books of the Bible laid a foundation to help prepare my weekly preaching, Bible study classes, and small groups. All the books I used at Judson are in my office and I still use them today as I confidently prepare to teach the Word of God.

Welcome to the web site of John W. Burgeson (Burgy),
retired physicist,
retired IBMer, retired
Stephen Minister.
My prior church family was the
Rico Community Church
in Rico, Colorado.
I now live in Texas, with the Rev. Carol Lee Burgeson,
my beautiful and remarkable wife of over 53 years, the love
of my life,
an MDiv graduate from the
Iliff School of Theology, Denver, Colorado,
PCUSA Minister of Word and Sacrament,
retired pastor of
The Rico Community Church,
which is
located at an altitude of 8827 feet in the Colorado San Juan mountains.
(yes - it is cold up there sometimes and we have had as much as 228 inches of snow in a winter.)
I used to write articles on baseball, energy issues and global warming
for Rico's newspaper,
the Rico Bugle.
I have completed a book on the (illustrated) history of the automobile. See page 2.
On this site you will find articles and links to sites which have
RESPONSIBLE information
on issues of global warming and
"Creation-Evolution" is not a good name for this last issue;
a better one is "Purpose-Accidentalism."
There is also
information on baseball, pathological science, corny humor,
Colorado jeep trails, fine automobiles, politics,
quantum mechanics, gay/lesbian issues, Sunday School courses
on Religion and Scientific Naturalism,
ethical issues, Habitat for Humanity projects
and some pictures
of me for use if you are constructing a dart board.
This site is at version 4.81, updated 6/13/2013.
I was informed by Bess Kalb of Wired magazine of broken links in the baseball section.
These have now been fixed and some broken links removed.
The place God calls you to be is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet. -- Buechner
It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how nature is. Physics concerns only what we can SAY about nature. -- Neils Bohr
These two quotations sum up why I entered the study of physics, why I hold it in such high regard, and at least partially why I first began to examine the claims of Christ at the age of 31. The interface between science, and what I claim to be true as a Christian has fascinated me ever since.

Been on HGH for 6 months - just started semorolin today. Did you ever get any answers, that how I found you, looking for the same answers?
Been on HGH for 6 months - just started semorolin today. Did you ever get any answers, that how I found you, looking for the same answers?
Never got any answers. I've been on Sermorelin for 3 weeks....to soon to tell for me.
What is the cost for sermorelin vs hgh?
Wondering if either of you HGH to Sermorelin testers have anything to report several months later. Thanks
How did the HGH work for you? I've been thinking about trying it and so is my father. He's 69 and I'm 38. Just wondering if what you think of it; pros/cons?
Sermorelin by itself is a complete waste of money IMO. I noticed absolutely nothing from it after switching from HGH. My IGF-1 stayed the same or dropped from previous levels while on it. Now on Sermorelin and GHRP-6........to soon to tell the results.
What dosage do you suggest to start out on? The stuff I'm getting is from a friend who is in the medical field; I'm buying 5cc for $173.00 and he said to take .3mg a day to start out on. I'm not to sure he knows what he's talking about; which is why I came to this site.
.3 mg equals approximately 1 IU which is what I use. You can start there and move to 1.5 IUs. I take weekends off to prevent lazy pituitary. I also cycle off one month every six.
At 1 IU 5 days per week, your first vial will last three weeks. By the way, your vial contains 5 mgs. After three weeks go to 1.5 IUs five days per week. Within the first 30 days you should notice results - more dramatic the next month. Reconstitute with 3MLs of water and keep refrigerated. 1 IU will be 20 ticks on your syringe and 1.5 will be 30.
I wonder if there is a place for sermorelin within a GH protocol, similar to the way in which hCG is used with TRT.
No. In fact it's advised that you stop HGH for several weeks before starting Sermorelin. it's a moot point because Sermorelin is ineffective.
Pfizer developed a pill called Capromorelin that actually worked well (stimulating the pituitary) in all age groups. Unfortunately, the FDA does not consider aging a disease. They didn't give it their nod. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capromorelin
Not by anyone who understands GH production. Sermorelin is initiated weeks prior to cessation of frank GHRT. This provides ramp up time. True, results from lone Sermorelin therapy have been very disappointing. So GHRP is added to increase endogenous production at the same time. It may also be a good idea to start an oral secretogue to reduce somatostatin tone for a time. And DHEA is important, too.
The four months I used it, I was off of all other forms of HRT, and was unable to get any increase in IGF-1 whatsoever. Both HCG and testosterone did far more for my IGF numbers. Maybe others have had some success, but for me it was a waste of money. Now I'm on a low dose GH protocol, and of course that works. I can't imagine that Sermorelin has the same relation to GH therapy as HCG has to TRT. As for ramping up, doesn't exogenous GH suppress the pituitary?
Last edited by colkurtz_spf; 03-16-2009 at 09:57 AM.
Maybe hCG : TRT is the wrong analogy. Maybe clomid : TRT is a better analogy.
As I understand Sermorelin, it coaxes the body to release more GHRH. So, like clomid (although the method of action is different; clomid is blocking hypothalmic receptor sites) it is working higher up the hormonal food chain, so to speak.
But it makes intuitive sense to use it prior to cessation of exogenous GH. You're priming the pump to make your own GH before exo-GH is withdrawn.
As far as your experience with it, my understanding is that it needs to be used with other things like GHRP-6 in order to be effective. That said, the synergy which results is attained at lower doses that sermorelin monotherapy, making the duet not only more effective but affordable.
Also, my understanding is that the GH release provided by sermorelin/GHRP is more similar to the physiologic release of these hormones than the square wave pattern of exo-GH, fwiw.
Additionally, unless I'm mistaken, one does not need a dx of GH deficiency to receive sermorelin therapy.
It is more like what clomid would be to TRT, which is exactly my point. HCG mimics LH. Clomid stimulates it. The body shuts down LH when T levels rise, so there's no point to stimulation. Likewise exogenous GH suppresses the pituitary. You can argue that transitioning from GH to Sermorelin helps you maintain higher GH levels, but at some point your level will settle where Sermorelin takes it, which in most cases is baseline. So what would be the point of combining the two? GH is different from testosterone. Unless your taking high doses (2 +IUs per day/7 days/wk) there's no crash. I take a complete month off of GH every six and haven't crashed yet - not even when I was taking over 10 IUs/wk. Before I restart therapy I always test my baseline, which is higher when I'm on androgens. Both baseline numbers (w&wo androgens) have been consistent for over four years.
Sermorelin may be easier to get your hands on, but if it does nothing to increase your IGF-1 level than it's a total waste of money. I know nothing about GHRP. Maybe the cocktail of the two works. If blood work can prove this, and the cost is reasonable, I will try it myself.
First you need to determine whether you really need therapy. For most people androgens sufficiently increase IGF levels. What were your levels the last time you drew blood? Were you on testosterone or HCG therapy at the time? Do you have a specific condition that requires GH therapy? I do. GH helped me reverse Oesteopenia. I know you can get a prescription if you need one.
I use 1IU - 5 days per week, and take plenty of time off to give my pituitary a rest. I spend $55/wk - 44 weeks per year on name brand GH. I don't recall what Sermorelin ran me, but I don't think it was much less. Cost aside, I would prefer a working secretagogue. Let me know if you come across any data showing the results of the Sermorelin/GHRP combo. I'm interested.
From what i've looked at, he is right, the ghrp6/sermorelin combo is WAY more effective than sermorelin alone. sermorelin will likely raise the level of the trough in your normal GH pulses (possibly cause a pulse as well), where ghrp6 will force an immediate pulse, and raise the level of the spike. so together they end up with a bit more of a total effect than either alone.

Celebrity Feet: Spike Lee Wears Foamposites & Jeremy Lin Jerseys
February 20th, 2012 by John Kim | 43 comments
New York Knicks super-fan Spike Lee is recognized for being decked out in the best NY Knicks gear there is, but on Friday and Sunday, the Knicks' last two games, Spike Lee went back in time to bring out some vintage Jeremy Lin in the form of his Palo Alta H.S. and Harvard jerseys. On Friday, Spike wore the Green/Black/White jersey at the request of Jeremy's High School coach (according to NBA), and matched it with a neon green undershirt and the Electric Green Foamposite Pros. He followed that up with the Crimson red Harvard jersey, pairing that one with the Metallic Red Foamposite One, but don't accuse Spike of jumping on the Harvard bandwagon; he taught a class in the early 90′s at the Ivy League school. Which Foam x Jeremy combo is more "Linsane"? Check out the Spike after the jump and let us know.

A multiwavelength view of the flaring state of PKS 2155-304 in 2006 |
HESS Collaboration(s) |
(2012) |
Multiwavelength (MWL) observations of the blazar PKS 2155-304 during two weeks in July and August 2006, the period when two exceptional flares at very high energies (VHE, E>= 100 GeV) occurred, provide a detailed picture of the evolution of its emission. The complete data set from this campaign is presented, including observations in VHE gamma-rays (H.E.S.S.), X-rays (RXTE, CHANDRA, SWIFT XRT), optical (SWIFT UVOT, Bronberg, Watcher, ROTSE), and in the radio band (NRT, HartRAO, ATCA). Optical and radio light curves from 2004 to 2008 are compared to the available VHE data from this period, to put the 2006 campaign into the context of the long-term evolution of the source. The X-ray and VHE gamma-ray emission are correlated during the observed high state of the source, but show no direct connection with longer wavelengths. The long-term flux evolution in the optical and radio bands is found to be correlated and shows that the source reaches a high state at long wavelengths after the occurrence of the VHE flares. Spectral hardening is seen in the SWIFT XRT data. The nightly averaged high-energy spectra of the non-flaring nights can be reproduced by a stationary one-zone SSC model, with only small variations in the parameters. The spectral and flux evolution in the high-energy band during the night of the second VHE flare is modelled with multi-zone SSC models, which can provide relatively simple interpretations for the hour time-scale evolution of the high-energy emission, even for such a complex data set. For the first time in this type of source, a clear indication is found for a relation between high activity at high energies and a long-term increase in the low frequency fluxes. |

No I dont own a NEW boat, but my wife bought me my own bass boat for a wedding present. Its gonna need a little work, but the foundation is solid. Its. 16.5 foot older model, and its got some wood accents (which to me is cool). A horrible fiberglass patch job just under the front lip, like someone hit something. I will be using this thread now to help me along the way, and will be enjoying it every bit of the way. Its going to be like when I built my 88 5.0 Mustang in High School. I sure know how to pick'em!
It just takes time that's all, it's not the product you see now, it's the finished product you have when it is completed that you are going to be the most proud of.
Good luck and we look forward to your posts and DON'T FORGET THE PICS !!!

The New York Yankees are flying high as they return to the Bronx tonight to open a seven-game homestand. The same cannot be said for their opponents at Yankee Stadium, the Chicago White Sox.
The Yankees are 12-6, in first place in the American League East by three games over the Tampa Bay Rays. The White Sox, on the other hand are 8-14, last in the AL Central, and have won just once in their last 11 games.
A.J. Burnett (3-0, 4.37) pitches tonight for the Yankees. Philip Humber (1-2, 4.42) pitches for Chicago.

I received well over 100 responses to my query about leftover yarn, and I thank each and every one of you for writing. I'm truly sorry that I could not include all of the responses in this issue.
I'm moved by the fact that so many of you don't have leftover yarn because you use it to knit for charities. You knit preemie caps, hats and mittens for the homeless, prayer shawls, lap blankets, blankets for animal shelters, baby rattles and toys for hospitalized children -- and when you don't have enough of one yarn, you work the projects in stripes!
Many of you are so frugal that you rarely over-buy. And when you do have leftovers, you use them for fringes, accents, bookmarks, tree ornaments, coffee-cup cozies, bags of all types, and more. And when you have yarn left over from a project that you're gifting, you give it to the recipient along with the item -- very smart.
I was relieved to find that I'm not the only one who doesn't have the time to do all that knitting, and thank you for giving me some ideas about organizations that would be happy to get free yarn -- day-care centers, schools, boys and girls clubs and nursing homes can all use yarn for projects. And since I doubt I'll be able to curb my yarn buying in any significant way, I'll try to clear out once per year and find the right home for my stash.
Knit on!
