Officers with the Evansville Police Department responded to a residential burglary just after midnight in the 300 block of West Missouri Street.
The two victims told police they were sleeping when three men forced their way into the bedroom and demanded to know "Where's the money?".
Police say the female victim tried to wake up the male victim, but was knocked unconscious after they hit her over the head with a blunt object.
EPD says the suspects then struck the male victim several times with a handgun in the face.
Officials say the suspects took jewelry and a cell phone.
The victims were unable to give a good description because the men were all wearing black hoodies and ski masks.
And unfortunately, this scenario, masked men kicking in a door and robbing people, is all too familiar for the EPD lately.
"We've had a number of these home invasion robberies over the last few weeks. There's been a number of them," EPD Captain Andy Chandler said.

No. Cervical dysplasia isn't cancer. The term indicates that abnormal cells were found on the surface of the cervix.
Cervical dysplasia can range from mild to severe, depending on the appearance of the abnormal cells. Dysplasia could go away on its own or, rarely, it could develop into cancer. Another term for cervical dysplasia is cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
Tests to determine the severity of cervical dysplasia
After an abnormality is detected on a Pap smear, your doctor may recommend more tests, including a human papillomavirus (HPV) test and colposcopy. Colposcopy is an examination of your cervix, vagina and vulva using a magnifying instrument. During a colposcopic examination, your doctor may determine where the abnormal cells are growing and the degree of abnormality. A sample of cells (biopsy) may be taken for testing.
Treatment and follow-up for cervical dysplasia
Often, with mild dysplasia, no treatment is needed. In most cases, mild dysplasia resolves on its own and doesn't become cancerous. Your doctor may recommend follow-up in six to 12 months to check for additional changes. If you have severe dysplasia, your doctor may recommend treatment such as surgery or other procedures to remove the abnormal cells.
Whether you have mild or severe dysplasia, it's likely your doctor will recommend Pap testing every six months or, with mild dysplasia, HPV testing yearly to monitor your condition and check for recurrences of dysplasia. After two consecutive normal Pap smears, your doctor will likely recommend resuming annual Pap smears if you've had severe dysplasia, and Pap smears every one to three years if you've had mild dysplasia.

CATEGORIES MoviesBradley Cooper, who's trying to beef up his career by latching on to roles with more substance than those he's inhabited in 'The Hangover' and 'Valentine's Day,' had been eyeing the lead in Relativity's remake of 'The Crow,' but now, according to The Hollywood Reporter, he's had to ditch the part due to scheduling conflicts.
Relativity is remaking the supernatural action movie based on the 1990s comic and has set Juan Carlos Fresnadillo to direct. 'Crow,' created by James O'Barr, told the story of a musician who is murdered while trying to save his fiancee from thugs; he's brought back from the dead by supernatural forces and seeks revenge. The role was originally played by Brandon Lee, who was killed by a freak accident during production in 1993; subsequent editions have starred Vincent Perez and Eric Mabius.
Cooper is soon to be shooting David O. Russell's 'Silver Linings Playbook' this fall, where he'll play a former teacher on the edge who moves back with his mother and tries to reconcile with his ex-wife, then segues to Alex Proyas' 'Paradise Lost,' where he'll play Lucifer in Milton's epic poem.
But never fear Crow fans, there's a couple of names floating around for the part: Mark Wahlberg, who was offered the part last year but a deal never developed, and Channing Tatum. Both actors, however, have heavy schedules coming up and since Relativity is anxious to get the remake off the ground sooner than later, the studio may soon begin looking at other candidates. But who knows? We might get surprised.
Who would you like to see play The Crow?

If you set your intervals to 1/2 stop instead of 1/3 stop then you'll get 1/180. Not sure if it's worth the hassle though for an extra 1/20.
Curious though, have you tried firing at 1/200? I just realized that I haven't pushed it to see how far I can get away with. My 400D never bought me much, but I've heard of people having luck pushing past the max sync on other models.
Thanks for the tip! That works, and yeah a bit of a hassle for not much gain, but worth doing when working with strobes outside where every little bit helps.
I have tried shooting at 1/200, and I get a small black band at the bottom of the frame. So sadly it doesn't seem possible.
Good to know. I use RF-602s, so I didn't expect to push it with those, but it was worth looking at. That said, often the small black band isn't an issue in non-studio situations (i.e. foreground lit by ambient). I've even pulled the 'flip the camera upside down so the black band is in the sky' technique and pushed it to 1/250 with my 400D.

A traffic stop on Monday led to the arrest of a man on
drug-related charges.
Decatur police reported that an officer stopped a car that
had been driving recklessly near Danville Road and 8th Street. The officer said
he approached the car and identified the driver as Adrian Arriaga.
Over the course of the traffic stop, officers said they
found cocaine, drug paraphernalia and a large amount of money inside the car,
and confirmed that Arriaga was the person in possession of these items.
Police said Arriaga was arrested and charged with unlawful
possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia, reckless driving,
no proof of insurance and driving without first obtaining a license.
Arriaga's money was reportedly seized pending proceedings.
Arriaga was transported to Decatur City Jail where he was
booked and processed, then transported
to Morgan County Jail on a $4,500 bond.

Our first two days were at sea, which were relaxing. Of course, getting a sun lounger anywhere near the pool is near impossible, as many people think their towels and magazines deserve a chair more than other passengers do. The poolside band was very good but they played for 1 1/2 hrs a day. The a Capella group played in 15 minute increments, once or twice by the pool during the day.The "DJ" was sub par. Otherwise it's very quiet by the pool; too quiet. We would have really enjoyed some Caribbean steel drum music around the pool. We also would have enjoyed seeing some tables and chairs outside in the pool area where we could play cards. We really enjoyed the tables/chairs on Princess. Bar service was very good in all the common areas. One thing we miss on this ship is the outdoor movie screen. It's so fun to snuggle up at night and watch a good movie under the stars, refreshed by the sea air. I know they show movies inside, but we wanted to enjoy the warm weather as much as possible.
Our room steward was Rosario and he was excellent. He was efficient, fun and kind. We enjoyed him very much and he took good care of us. We had a balcony cabin and it was quite nice. No problem with storage. No extra noise, very close to the elevators. Just perfect for us. One thing we really miss on Celebrity is coin operated laundry and an ironing board for passenger use.
The ship was clean and in good repair. The decor is contemporary and pretty but not overdone.
Overall, this cruise was wonderful, one of our best ever.

A new urban micro-farm is being built in Charleston to help teach people agricultural skills to allow them to participate in the local food market.
The farm being built this weekend is the first step in the Charleston Area Alliance's new Sustainable Agriculture Entrepreneur initiative.
The design was drafted by students at the Center for Sustainability Studies at Davis & Elkins College. Other partners in the project include the University of Charleston and West Virginia University Extension Service.
Officials say the program will teach members of the public how to cultivate a variety of agricultural products and help them sell the crops at outlets like restaurants and food suppliers.
The inaugural class that kicks in January will feature 12 agriculture courses in urban micro-farming and six courses in entrepreneurship.

The Lady Ram freshmen and sophomore volleyball teams played Pana on Thursday and settled for a split. The freshmen won, 25-19, 25-21, but the sophomores lost 21-25, 23-25.
The freshmen girls are learning on the fly, but they still managed to notch a win.
"The girls did well," said fresh-soph coach Ann Dunaway. "We are still trying to be more consistent on our hitting and with our sets. We stareted playing better defense towards the end, but the girls need to learn to take charge and just go. There is still a lot of confusion with who is taking the ball. Sydney Miller did a good job both front row and back row. Along with Torre Koontz, Kary Langan had a good serving game."
Shelbyville def. Pana 25-19, 25-21
Shelby stats: Jacque Johnston 3 points, 1 kill, 7 assists; Kary Langan 11 points, 2 aces, 1 block; Shelby Hendrix 9 points, 1 ace, 12 kills, 2 digs; Jerrica Hood 2 kills; Torre Koontz 4 points, 4 kills, 1 block; Dakota Forsyth 4 points, 3 digs; Caylee Wheeler 6 points, 6 assists; Sydney Miller 12 points, 1 ace, 5 kills, 6 digs.
The sophomores competed, but couldn't get the win.
"The girls played hard, but were playing defense more than we should have been," Coach Dunaway said. "Communication is a key factor. When things are going our way the communication is there. Once the tables are turned communication is an issue."
Pana def. Shelbyville 25-21, 25-23
Shelby stats: Isabel Leach 3 points, 4 assists, 9 digs; Quincy Beyers 4 points, 2 kills, 5 digs; Karlee Herzog 6 points, 4 kills, 6 digs; Elly Oldham 7 digs; Maddie Holland 2 points, 1 ace, 1 assist, 1 block; Katie Sladek 7 points, 3 aces, 4 digs; Jacque Johnston 10 points, 1 kill, 2 assists, 2 digs; Ryann Ambrose 11 points, 1 ace, 1 kill, 2 digs, 1 block.

Dumbledore - Iconic Legendary Hero or Just another Ficitonal Character?June 20, 2009, 10:44 AM
To me, Dumbledore died on July 02, 1995.
Working on a Harry Potter fan site during the heyday of book releases meant that well meaning fans would send us spoilers before the book release. Two weeks before the release date, I received a book page in my in box, with the fate of the headmaster highlighted in a putrid green.
I quickly closed the page and deleted the file. I sat back in my office chair, and reflected to myself the fate of this character. I'd taught literature long enough to know the adage, "The old wizard with the white beard dies." I knew Joseph Campbell's hero journey model well enough to know the hero had to go about the task alone. I had even discussed the possibilities of this death with many other Harry Potter fans, but suddenly, he was dead.
Dumbledore was dead, killed by one of my favorite characters in the series.
I sat in disbelief. I was heartbroken, angry at Snape, angry at Jo, and more than anything worried sick about Harry. I found myself calling Sue Upton and crying with her looking for solace.
All of these tears were for a fictional character.
There are those people, you know the ones, that think admiring a fictional hero seems pointless. After all, they didn't really "do" anything.
— G.K. Chesterton
If you are reading this blog, you probably love a good story, but reading fiction is more than just entertainment. I could quote boring educational psychology books, (and trust me, they are very boring) but we all know that reading fiction helps us make sense of our non-fictional world. No, I can't pull out a wand and clean my kitchen, (Trust me, I've tried) but reading fiction makes me a better problem solver in my non-fiction life.
Dumbledore is a fictional wizard that came from the imagination of a brilliant woman. But, Harry Potter fans know, he's more then that as well. I'm amazed at how often this one character is referenced in real lives. Dumbledore has become a cultural icon. His lessons live on, not just on the pages of a book, but within the culture that we all share. Albus Dumbledore has become a real teacher, a real mentor and a true inspiration to those of us who believe that magic still happens.
Very soon, when the movie comes out, we'll witness first-hand the death of Albus Dumbldore.
I know I'll be joined around the world by thousands of fans when I cry.
So what do you think? Is Dumbledore a cultural icon of our day, or is he just another character in a story, destined to turn a few pages, then walk out of our minds forever?
Don't forget that The Harry Potter Alliance's "What Would Dumbledore Do" campaign is asking you to tell the world what lessons you learned from Hogwart's Headmaster. You can add your blog into their Common Room here.
Recently, I asked people on Twitter to give me some of their favorite quotes about Dumbledore. The quotes could be something he said, or just something about him. I started following the hash tags (#Dumbledore) so I could keep up with the quotes. As I looked for the quotes, I was amazed at a trend I didn't expect. Just eyeballing the "tweets" that contained his name, Dumbledore is mentioned approximately every 13 minutes by someone on Twitter. Of course, if your tweets are set to private, then I can't see those. So those tweets are not part of my count.
After I started this little project of collecting quotes, the reality of how many people have been touched by this character sunk in. Some people tweeted me with over 20 quotes, some sent me several that others had mentioned. If you want to Tweet your favorite quote now, please do so. Just add the #Dumbledore hash tag to assure it shows up on the Twitter feed I've linked to below.

Students are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Those who qualify can have the cost of the trip covered by financial aid.
In addition to traditional semester and year-long study abroad programs, NECC offers short-term international course options, giving working students the opportunity to experience studying abroad. Students in the credit courses meet two to three times before the trip and then after they return.
For more information about Introduction to Archeology: A Site Exploration of Ancient Turkey contact Professor Kristi Arford at firstname.lastname@example.com or 978-556-3353 or Professor Habib Maagoul at firstname.lastname@example.com or 978-556-3344.

Chris Matthews Omits Party Label of Prudish Congressmen Calling for Viagra Ad Censorship
On the May 8 "Hardball", the MSNBC anchor noted in his Political Sideshow segment that Reps. Jim Moran (Va.) and Bob Brady (Pa.), are up in arms about erectile dysfunction drug ads running on television and are sponsoring legislation before the House to ban television stations from running ads for drugs like Viagra and Cialis from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. The Democratic congressmen argue the ads are indecent for children. [get audio for download here]
While the legislation's premise seems prudish at worst and laughably silly at best, Matthews insisted that the congressmen, who are "regular guys" and "both friends of mine" were simply "looking out for the kids." All the same, he failed to give the Democratic Party credit for threatening the cold shower of government regulation on the drug commercials.
Oddly enough and also worth mentioning, just before reading this news item, Matthews shared with viewers that Michelle Obama has said her biggest thrill as First Lady was doing a PSA taping on the set of Sesame Street. Matthews then reminded viewers that it was President Barack Obama that "gave me my biggest thrill."

At a Blaine House event, the Governor touted the industry by citing Todd Gabe's new study highlighting the economic impact of Maine's Maple Industry.
"Maine's maple industry contributes an estimated $27.7 million directly to the Maine economy," said Governor LePage. "The new study also shows that Maine's maple industry has an annual statewide economic contribution, including multiplier effects, of an estimated $48.7 million in output, 805 full- and part-time jobs and $25.1 million in labor income. Most importantly, this industry has a huge potential for additional job creation.
Other key findings of the study by University of Maine Professor of Economics Todd Gabe:
Maine has the third largest maple industry in the United States. Maine's maple industry is characterized by a relatively small number of farms accounting for the vast majority of syrup that is produced. Maine's licensed maple syrup producers have been in operation an average of 24 years, and many of the farms appear to span multiple generations. Maine's maple industry—which counts the licensed producers, and sales at retail food stores and businesses impacted by Maine Maple Sunday—generates 567 full- and part-time jobs, and $17.3 million in labor income."

'Every day I ask the question' - Bethan Jenkinsby Adrian Masters
In her first broadcast interview since being convicted of drink-driving, Bethan Jenkins has been telling me how she feels she let down her constituents, family and friends. She said she deeply regrets what happened and that she wasn't thinking rationally.
The Plaid Cymru AM was banned from driving for 20 months after pleading guilty to the charge last month. She was suspended by her party but has since been reinstated although she faces a further investigation by the Assembly's Standards Commissioner.
She tells me she hopes to continue as an Assembly Member and has been overwhelmed by support from constituents, support she didn't think she deserved. You can see my interview in tonight's Sharp End at 1035pm ITV Cymru Wales.

Eagles Beat Hatters, 77-66
FORT MYERS, Fla. - Four Eagles scored in double figures and Kristina Mingos grabbed a career-high 12 rebounds as FGCU defeated Stetson by the final of 77-66 on Monday night.
In the opening minutes, everything seemed to go right and the Lady Eagles jumped out to a 25-6 lead with 9:23 remaining. FGCU led by as many as 21 in the first half, but went the locker room at halftime up by 18 points.
In second half, FGCU continued to hold off Stetson. The Hatters tried to get back into the contest by turning up their defensive pressure and Stetson eventually cut the FGCU lead down to nine points, but the Eagles held the Hatters off to win their eighth conference game of the season by the final score of 77-66.
Chelsea Lyles (Colorado Springs, Col.) scored a game-high 21 points on 8-of-12 shooting from the field and 5-of-6 from behind the arc. Adrianne McNally (Howell, Mich.) nearly picked up the first triple-double with 15 points, nine assists, and eight boards. Kristina Mingos (Mission Hills, Kan.), in only her second career start, grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds. Kelsey Jacobson (Barnesville, Minn.) chipped in with 10 points.
The next game for the Lady Eagles is Thursday, January 29 as the Lipscomb Bison pay a visit to Fort Myers for a 7 p.m. tip-off at Alico Arena.

Beckett 100
Why did none of us remember that today marked the 100th anniversary of the birth of Samuel Beckett? Doesn't that make you feel a little ashamed, as one of the surviving torch-bearers for what we laughingly call civilization, to have missed commemorating such an occasion? It does me.
Let's boil this stew down to its basest aroma. It's because of Sam Beckett that the phrase "Waiting for Godot" has entered the popular lexicon, as a way of referring to anticipating something that isn't going to happen, a hope that isn't going to be fulfilled, a prayer that won't be answered -- much like "Catch-22" refers to things that can't happen because their very possibility is inextricable from their unlikelihood. The phrase is known and understood by multitudes for whom the play itself would be well above and beyond comprehension.
On a personal note, the name Godot carries a special personal meaning for Donna and me. We spent many happy, loving years with a beautiful black-and-white longhaired cat named Godot, so named because we had to wait three months to take possession of her and because she never came when anyone called her. I read my share of Beckett in those days, when a novelist is all that I worked at being and hoped to be, and I spent much time coveting the Grove Press hardcover collected works that used to reside near the basement cash register at Cincinnati's long-gone Kidd's Bookstore, priced at a then-astronomical $100.
When was the last time I saw something as substantial as Beckett's collected works given such pride of place in a bookstore? Ouch. How far we have fallen.
I ask myself. I ask you. Which is the more tragic -- that I had to be reminded that today was the first centenery of Samuel Beckett's birth by the IMDb? Or that every link I could find relating to Beckett centenary celebrations (all in his native Ireland) led to "This Page is Unavailable" notices?
I must admit to having gained distance from Beckett myself in this video age of ours, but I cherish the impact he had on me -- as a reader, moreso than as a writer. His early works like MURPHY were novels of acute and comic Irish absurdity and caricature, but as time went on, his titles became more and more about themselves, and reflected such reductive powers of concentration as could be compared to the pressure that transforms coal, over thousands of years, into diamond.
One of my favorite of all literary epigrams comes from the closing lines of THE UNNAMEABLE, the conclusion of a trilogy-of-sorts beginning with MOLLOY and MALONE DIES; in just a few words, Beckett succeeded in summarizing a feeling about life and work that I wouldn't fully appreciate till I reached my 40s, when it became a veritable motto: "I can't go on. I'll go on." I can't think of seven other words that more richly evoke what it is like to live and work in today's world, and that's why we should be raising one to this man's memory today.
To Samuel Beckett. One of the few winners of the Nobel Prize for Literature who was actually worth a damn.
May I humbly suggest that we all adjourn with our pints to the nearest roadside curb, where we can sit and wait for the parade in Sam's name that isn't going to come?
Without Pitney
It's hard to put this mysterious kinship into words, but I've always felt that my first intimations of the spirit to which I gravitate, not just in music but in all the arts, began around 1961-62, when songs like "Town Without Pity" and "Telstar" by The Tornados first seared through the sameness of Top 40 radio. I was only five or six years old, not a sophisticated listener, but whenever these songs came on the radio, I became very still. I became an active listener. They attuned me to something deep inside myself that naturally inclined toward the dark and the fantastical.
I would not realize for several years still to come that "Town Without Pity" was the theme song of a movie, a West German-US co-production starring Kirk Douglas and Christine Kaufmann, about the gang rape of a young German girl by four US soldiers (two of them GOMER PYLE U.S.M.C.'s Frank Sutton and Robert Blake in a performance that points forward to his later work in IN COLD BLOOD) and how the ensuing trial "rapes" her in a different way, more decisively ruining her life and driving her to suicide. But it's appropriate that the vibe in that song for which I felt such affinity would turn out to have ties to what we now call Eurocult.
TOWN WITHOUT PITY is an affecting movie, though not a particularly good one, and when I finally got to see it for the first time in the late 1960s, it didn't eclipse the feelings I already had for the song. I think the song fits the story and the mood of the movie very well, but I also feel that it stands for a great deal more than the concrete situation about which it was written. (It was written, incidentally, by the great Dimitri Tiomkin and lyricist Ned Washington.) For example, I have gay friends who relate to "Town Without Pity" because it speaks to a relationship whose existence must be whispered between its two intimates, because society -- lyrically reduced to a "town" -- doesn't understand or condone their love. (This reading may have had something to do with why John Waters selected it for use in his HAIRSPRAY soundtrack.) At the time, it doubtless spoke just as directly to interracial lovers. There is also something about Tiomkin's music, its slinky 6/4 piano PERRY MASON atmosphere, that speaks even to innocent ears about corruption and despair, about a world of vice and law whose sheer opposing weight is geared to crush out what is best in the human heart through sheer oppression. So I guess you could say that my attraction to "Town Without Pity" was that it offered Top 40 listeners substantially more truth about the world at large ("it isn't very pretty...") than the average pop song.
Of course, it was Pitney's tortured vocal that brought the song so committedly to life. One of the most distinctive interpreters pop music has ever known, Pitney was a superior stylist, a tuneful enunciator who seemed to look past the lyric to each song's underlying meaning -- the soul of each word, and the spirit that strung them together. To hear such an unmistakable voice, one might expect it to be limited or unlikely to be flexible in terms of milieu, but Pitney was much more than just a maestro of octave-swooping melodrama. He could be twee in some song settings, but he could also sing convincingly from the stances of cowboys ("The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance"), truck drivers ("Twenty Four Hours From Tulsa" and "Last Chance to Turn Around" -- a song whose chorus incidentally inspired the title of Hubert Selby Jr.'s hard-hitting novel LAST EXIT TO BROOKLYN), and even gondoliers. Pitney was one of the first pop vocalists to record foreign language export versions of his hits, and he recorded entire albums of material for the Italian market, which was especially receptive to his near-operatic delivery. He was also one of the pop song's technical pioneers: almost a full ten years before Paul McCartney recorded his 16-track one-man-band solo album McCARTNEY, Gene Pitney provided his own musical accompaniment on his first hit single, "(I Wanna) Love My Life Away," though recording technology was limited at the time to only two or three tracks.
Justly recognized as a talented songwriter ("He's A Rebel", "Hello, Mary Lou"), Pitney spent most of his recording career covering the work of other composers. He was arguably the most notable male interpreter of the songs of Burt Bacharach and Hal David ("True Love Never Runs Smooth" being a particularly good example). For the past few years, a British label called Sequel has been reissuing most of Pitney's 1960s albums as two-fers, and to know Pitney properly, it's important to move away from the hits and see what he accomplished on his albums, uneven as they often are. A particularly fascinating index to his talents is the album GOLDEN GREATS, which Musicor paired with THIS IS GENE PITNEY. GOLDEN GREATS is Pitney-as-one-man-jukebox, finding him accepting the challenge of either improving upon songs already placed in the Top 40 (if not the Top 10) by other artists, or failing miserably. An awkwardly reworded rendition of The Supremes' "Stop in the Name of Love" frankly kicks his ass, but Pitney manages to score well or better with most of his choices, which include The Hollies' "Bus Stop" and Gary Lewis and The Playboys' "Count Me In." He shows the expected affinity for Roy Orbison's exquisitely melodramatic "Crying," the countrified shadings of Tom Jones' "The Green, Green Grass of Home," and the inspirational doo-wop of The Platters' "The Great Pretender," but it's Pitney's incredible cover of Jay and the Americans' "Cara Mia" that brings the listener to his knees. Here, we realize that it wasn't enough for Pitney to be a sensitive stylist and interpreter; a song had to meet him halfway, to be available to an instrument of Pitney's unique range and ability, for the alchemy to fully ignite. "Cara Mia" offers him opportunities to drag lyrics across the gravel of his lower register and also to soar above one's highest expectations. This track, vastly superior to the hit rendition it covers, deserves to be remembered as one of Pitney's greatest moments on record.
Still, when we note that GOLDEN GREATS was released in 1967 -- the year of SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND -- it's easy to see how out-of-step the album was with its times, regardless of its achievement of moments that now seem absolutely timeless. It also had the misfortune to carry a title which, at a glance, portended yet another of the "greatest hits" albums that were epidemic in Pitney's output. There were exceptions to the rule, but apart from the album he later cut with George Jones (which not only prophesied the 1970s country-rock-crossover but the 1980s "duets" craze as well), Pitney's albums never really took the necessary quantum leap of vision and creativity to maintain his dominance in the field. His popularity may have also suffered by someone's decision to photograph him in the company of an attractive model who would change from one album cover to the next; after all, there was a commercial reason why the Beatles management wanted to keep John Lennon's marital status under wraps in those days. Despite these professional missteps, Pitney seems to have had an unusually solid grip on reality and his place in the world; he resolutely did what he was good at doing, without conceding to trends. He also put his real life first, with his wife and three sons, always making his home in his native state of Connecticut. America forgot him, at least to the extent of making it unfeasible for him to tour the States in later years, but he remained a beloved figure abroad. The only time I saw Pitney on American television in the 1970s was when he appeared on THE DON LANE SHOW, an Australian talk show briefly syndicated here.
When I first came online in 1995, I discovered that AOL hosted some music newsgroups and I spent some time lurking in several of them, among them one devoted to Gene Pitney. I was amazed to discover that Pitney himself was a frequent participant (his screen name was "ThePits") who took pleasure in answering people's questions, at least the ones he hadn't been asked a million times before. It was my first exposure to how the Internet could bring previously distant or unapproachable celebrities within one's virtual reach; in other AOL news forums at that time, it was not uncommon to find the likes of Bobby Vee, Roger McGuinn and David Crosby holding court. My standout memory of "ThePits" is that there came a time when he announced that he would be absenting himself from the forum because he felt a now-or-never need to throw himself into some new songwriting. I don't know what, if anything, came of that woodshedding, but I suspect the yield wasn't anything like he must have hoped for, like a new record deal. However, thereafter, he did more earnestly pursue a return to live performance abroad.
A few years ago, Gene Pitney appeared on PBS television stations across the country in a live performance recorded in, I think, Hartford, Connecticut -- not far from home. The performance, which was also issued as a live album, proved that little about this consummate craftsman had diminished over time. Though they were by then over 40 years old, his most familiar hits were sung as though their sentiments were still coming directly from his heart rather than from the teleprompter of memory. In the midst of this parade of request fulfillments, I was particularly struck by his performance of a Robbie Williams song, "Angels," which seemed tailor-made for the Pitney treatment and proved him a still-heroically-vital interpreter of modern-day songwriting. Unfortunately, I don't think Pitney ever recorded a studio version; it might well have been the adult contemporary hit he was hoping to record.
Yes, 65 is much too young to die... but, on the other hand, Pitney ended his life asleep -- without misadventure, without pain, without infirmity, without disease, without knowing the end was coming, and without the heartbreak of conscious goodbyes -- after a triumphal performance to an appreciative audience, knowing that many more such evenings were still to come. I honestly can't think of a more blessed exit.
And his songs stand every chance of living on forever, or at least as long as hearts can be broken or swell with pride or love or aspiration to the point of breaking. Feeling these things and listening to Gene Pitney, we know that we are not alone.

My Favorite Bands "Under Review"
Fans of, shall we say, audacious rock music will be excited to learn about two new releases coming out later this week from Music Video Distributors and Sexy Intellectual. The first two DVDs in a new series called "Under Review," these feature length programs focus on two 1960s bands whose legacy was supremely influential on the cutting edge music of subsequent decades: Captain Beefheart and The Velvet Underground. They street on 4/15 and retail for $19.98 apiece.
Fans of these cult groups will find it almost wondrous to see their histories discussed so seriously and eloquently, not only by well-credentialed critics but by former members of the bands in question. VELVET UNDERGROUND: UNDER REVIEW (85 minutes) interviews VILLAGE VOICE music editor Robert Christgau; Clinton Heylin, author of essential books on punk rock, Bob Dylan, bootleg albums and Public Image Limited; Total Rock DJ, author and journalist, Malcolm Dome, and Luna mainman Dean Wareham, as well as Velvets members Maureen "Moe" Tucker and Doug Yule, and Andy Warhol Factory photographer/Velvets album cover designer Billy Name.
CAPTAIN BEEFHEART: UNDER REVIEW (115 minutes) interviews Beefheart biographer Mike Barnes; author/critic Alan Clayson; UNCUT magazine contributing editor Nigel Williamson, and a vast assortment of Beefheart Magic Band alumni, including John "Drumbo" French, Mark "Rockette Morton" Boston, Jeff Moris Tepper, Elliott "Winged Eel Fingerling" Ingber, ira Ingber, Jerry Handley, Doug Moon, Gary Marker, Eric Drew Feldman and Gary Lucas. Both discs contain many clips of rare performances, archival interview footage, and are supplemented with interview outtakes and interactive quizzes. It's also great to hear the music of these bands remixed in stereo surround. I want a whole album of how "Ella Guru" sounds on the BEEFHEART DVD.
Both programs approach their subjects chronologically, single by single and album by album. As someone intimately acquainted with the discographies of both bands, I found it actually cathartic to watch these documentaries, to see the work of these often overlooked units so fulfillingly appreciated. Of course I have my own feelings about their recorded output, so I was somewhat disappointed that Beefheart's ultimate statement TROUT MASK REPLICA was not addressed with the same gravity as, say, THE VELVET UNDERGROUND AND NICO on the corresponding release. (There is some disagreement among the Beefheart authorities assembled here, but LICK MY DECALS OFF, BABY and CLEAR SPOT seem to vie for their #1 choice, with TROUT MASK being... well, singular. And for a double album, it IS pretty singular. I wish Matt Groening had been invited to balance the books.) My own favorite Velvets album is their third, self-titled album, which I feel is given its due her, but the VELVET UNDERGROUND program actually reminded me of the importance of the AND NICO album, their first, which was actually recorded in 1966 and not issued until 1967. It is not the better album, but it is unquestionably the more important group statement. Likewise, Beefheart's CLEAR SPOT track "Big Eyed Beans from Venus," his most beloved track by fans and arguably his best-realized studio performance, is rather surprisingly dismissed by Mike Barnes as popular on account of its accessibility. Accessibility doesn't explain why I am nearly moved to the point of tears every time I hear it; it has much more to do with the alchemy of its clean production and the sound of every member of the band mining dissonance until they tap an almost exorcismal sublimity and sweetness. Again, the Velvets disc excels in this area with its extended appreciation of "Venus in Furs" from THE VELVET UNDERGROUND AND NICO, which the critics identify -- to a man -- as the moment where that album becomes timeless and transcendent. To hear Robert Christgau, echoing Lester Bangs, cite this track as the moment "where modern music begins" is incredibly satisfying and insightful.
Watching these documentaries, one realizes that Captain Beefheart and The Velvet Underground had far more in common than their very different music makes apparent. Both groups were dominated by a single personality: Beefheart himself, Don Van Vliet (who abandoned music in 1981 to pursue a successful career in painting), and Lou Reed of The Velvets (who left the band in 1970 to pursue a still successful if increasingly literary solo career). Both groups had members in their early lineups who left after creative clashes with the "alpha male" -- John Cale in The Velvets, Ry Cooder in The Magic Band -- their departures radically changing the nature of the groups' music. Both groups were also "sponsored", in a sense, by iconographic art figures: Andy Warhol (VU) and Frank Zappa (CB). Furthermore, as the two figureheads of these bands have become more remote and inaccessible -- Van Vliet, reportedly suffering from multiple sclerosis, has not been photographed in decades, while Reed prefers to focus on his solo work -- the contributions of their fellow band members have been given the space to come into much stronger relief. It's refreshing to see the Velvets documentary pay so much respectful attention to Moe Tucker, founding member/guitarist Sterling Morrison, and especially Doug Yule, who replaced Cale in the band, which he joined in time to play on their third album. The first VU album is almost certainly their greatest and most important, and their second album WHITE LIGHT/WHITE HEAT is just as grand in a darker way, but the greater balance of the group's classic core of material was written and recorded after Cale's departure. It was only after Yule's joining, and the loss of Cale's abrasive signature viola, that The Velvets became a classic rock-and-roll band.
An interesting result of Van Vliet's silence in recent years, and one about which I have very mixed feelings, is that much of his original projected persona has been revealed as, for lack of a better word, "show biz." His amazing voice, once self-described as encompassing six or more octaves, has since been professionally charted as somewhat narrower. His stories about never attending school and having never indulged in drugs have been proved various shades of hooey, and his former band members have portrayed him as a ruthless task master, almost a cult leader, not to mention a sometimes wrongful appropriator of song credit. And then there is the 1973-76 "Tragic Band" period when Beefheart turned his back on his muse to attempt more commercial music, only to discover that his watered-down brand of funk-pop attracted no new listeners and turned away those he already had. The stories presented on the BEEFHEART disc by his fellow band members are generally very respectful, sometimes acknowledging that Van Vliet was absolutely and unerringly aware of the impact his music would have over time. (John French recalls Van Vliet telling him, some 35 years ago, "Someday you'll hear a knock on your door and it will be someone who has travelled halfway around the world to record your recollections of what we are doing right now!") But the program pays rightful attention to the musical skills of Beefheart's associates, all of whom continue to do good work but clearly miss the "north star" visionary who led them in younger days to vistas previously unexplored in music. Some of them are working today in tribute bands to keep Beefheart's extraordinary blues-avant-art-swamp-rock fusion alive and available to fresh discovery.
These discs mark an impressive starting point for what I hope will be a successful, ongoing series. I'd love to see similar discs address the music of, say, King Crimson, Can, Nick Drake, Brian Eno, Laura Nyro, Amon Duul I and II -- and that's just for starters. Based on the choices shown here, I suspect the producers of these discs are thinking along much the same lines.
Postscript: Music Video Distributors and Sexy Intellectual have now announced the third and fourth releases in the "Under Review" series. June 6 will see the release on a profile of KATE BUSH, and following on June 27 will be THE SMITHS.

The hotbeds of Southampton FC support revealed - thanks to Twitter
1:10pm Friday 11th January 2013 in Saints News By Dan Kerins, Digital Editor
Thanks to researchers, you can now see where Saints fans from across the UK are tweeting from about their favourite club.
The Oxford Internet Institute has put together an interactive map showing where Twitter users mentioned the official #saintsfc hashtag from.
Unsurprisingly, most were in Hampshire, but you may be surprised at some of the more distant locations Saints fans were tweeting from.
You can also compare how Saints fare with other Premier League clubs.
In terms of popularity, Saints are the 14th most frequently tweeted about club in the Premier League, with 96 mentions per million UK tweets.
Liverpool was the most popular, with 722 mentions per million tweets in the UK.
If you're on Twitter, make sure you follow @the_saints for all the latest news on your favourite club.

Really don't know, and certainly don't care.
Though I would like to see a colourful demographic of Saints actual support-season ticket holders etc- which would show a larger following in the PO postcode than other smaller, local clubs for instance.

Do all Saints fans tweet? No
Everytime a tweet is made from a Saint fan is the saintsfc hashtag used? No
Is it just Saints fans who use the saintsfc hashtag? No
Are all tweets geo-tagged? No
Not really representative of our support.

OPINION: Back to basics for TV30 as San Ramon exits
Original post made on Jun 2, 2012
Read the full story here Web Link posted Saturday, June 2, 2012, 7:36 AM

So, basically, the San Ramon council continues to withdraw behind their walls so they can plot with developer friends in peace.
on Jun 2, 2012 at 3:09 pm
Then, there is this from the TVCF article.
"The foundation also paid former area television personality Mark Curtis $94,500 over about 39 months -- about $2,400 per month -- to write press releases, develop marketing campaigns, handle press relations, and emcee events, along with writing and hosting a bi-monthly TV show, "Tri-Valley Community Focus," at TV30."
Maybe San Ramon is also wiping some of the TVCF grease off its hands.
on Jun 2, 2012 at 7:31 pm
Once TV30 got rid of people like Dawn Gordner and all of their good shows like Media Roundtable and Grass Roots, it ceased to be watchable and relevant. Who wants to watch a bunch of canned, puff PR pieces with unrealistically perky and upbeat hosts and hostesses?

CALEDONIA, Minn. (KTTC) -- Three men from suburban Detroit, Michigan were killed Friday afternoon when their small plane crashed in a field southeast of the Houston County Airport near Caledonia.
The Houston County Sheriff's Office said Saturday the victims were Joel Alan Garrett, 79, of Troy, Michigan, Dale Edward Garrett, 49, of Berkley, Michigan, and John Paul Bergeron, 50, of Birmingham, Michigan.
A fourth man onboard the twin-engine plane is identified as Joseph Samuel Stevens, 61, of Bloomfield, Michigan. Sheriff Doug Ely said Stevens was airlifted to Gundersen Health System in La Crosse by Med-Link Air with severe injuries.
A farmer found the wreckage about 4:30 p.m. Friday but the crash apparently happened more than two hours earlier. The plane took off from Oakland/Troy Airport in Waterford at 12:07 p.m. EDT Friday and the air traffic control flight track shows the aircraft ascended to 10,000 feet and then to an altitude of 12,000 feet before dropping to the crash site at about 2:04 p.m. CDT. The aircraft's speed was 158 mph when it went down.
The aircraft was a Piper Aztec twin-engine built in 1966; the Federal Aviation Administration registry shows it is owned by Garlam Aviation of Troy, Michigan.
Joel Garrett was a prominent builder and real estate developer in the northern Detroit suburbs in Oakland and Macomb Counties; he was the owner and president of Ladd's, Inc. and also president of Garrett Associates, a commercial and residential construction firm. Garrett's company has developed more than 2000 residential lots in the Detroit suburbs.
Federal officials from the NTSB and FAA are investigating. The sheriff reported that his officers were assisted by Caledonia Police, Fire and Ambulance services, Eitzen Fire Department, the Minnesota State Patrol, Tri-State Ambulance, Med-Link Air Ambulance, the Minnesota Department of Transportation, Winona County Sheriff's Office, and the Houston County Highway Department.
If anyone has information regarding the crash or witnessed the crash, Sheriff Ely is encouraging calls to the Houston County Sheriff's Office at 507-725-3379.

The charges stem from the August 2012 case involving Nicole Colbert.

(WMC-TV) - Imagine the number of people it would take to fill 10 FedExForum arenas. That is how many people the Mid-South Food Bank provides emergency food and assistance to each year. Out of the estimated 186,500 people who receive assistance, 31 percent of them are kids under 18 years old.
That is why the generous Mid-South stepped up with donations to the annual Action News 5 Food Drive Wednesday.
From sunrise to sunset you gave, and our team across eight locations had fun at the same time – all to stock the shelves of the Mid-South Food Bank.
Little angels, Sister Myotis, Memphis Grizzlies player Mike Miller, among hundreds of other Mid-Southerns stopped by to donate.
Unilever in Covington donated $20,000.
The Action News 5 Food Drive collected 41,625 pounds of food and $69,183.50, which equals 240,850 meals.
You can still donate to the food bank by clicking here.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
Start on left side of lichen slab on big holds. Smear up to a rail. Traverse rail right to groove. Climb groove to smear up to giant grass ledge. Forty feet up come onto the grass ledge fifty feet wide headinf towards the hillside. A nice walk off instead before tackling the crux bulge. The battle of bulging clean slab crux irresistible. Smear up to the rail and get smear foot higher than rail to reach a bucket hand hold. Next rail is out of reach without another smear or two. Then it's over. Low angle rock and grass fifty more feet to trees. The climb should have two stars and the forty feet of slab to start, though of it as approach on lichen covered rock. Long and clean enough finish to make up for the poor start. Free soloed.
300 ft east of Utopia Ledges. 20 ft uphill and furthest left from base of the slabs here. Nice ground below slab that's flat.
TCU or half tri cams or ball nuts would be best. Other wise baby angle pitons. Pro is there when needed most.

By: JONN from browns mills new jersey on 03/11/2013These cubes are perfect for my project. I had found similar cubes at the dollar store and bought and used all of them. hen I got these new ones from Madison, well, they are larger and much nicer looking. These will work perfectly into my hanging art, I use them like beads on cord with other fun colorful stuff. I love them :)
By: JoAnn from Newark, DE on 09/22/2011This was the first time I have ever purchased from Madison but it won't be the last! I was expecting deliveryt to take about 7-10 dyas but was pleasantly surprised when it was delivered in 2 days! The price was also far better than any other site I looked at.

Whats the difference between the ATI balancer that you guys sell and the ATI balancer all their other distributors sell, besides the Lingenfelter sticker on it? Does it come with a ring? The price difference says it does, but you don't say that anywhere.
Wondering because I'd like to get the balancer and ring at the same place, but it seems no one else is able to get the 18% and 22.5% rings.

Car Dealers, Imports: Background
Car dealers are the most politically active segment of the automotive industry, but import dealers are in a different situation than that of the struggling Detroit automakers and the dealerships that hawk their products. Import dealers are typically strident free-market proponents, fending off tariffs and protections.
The industry is organized under the banner of the American International Automobile Dealers Assn., which was founded primarily to promote free trade. Like most business interests, AIADA lobbies incessantly for a repeal of the estate tax, which can take up to 55 percent of a family-owned business's wealth when its owner dies, and for affordable health care plans for small businesses. It has lobbied for decades against the "Chicken Tax," the result of a dispute between the U.S. and Germany over the importation of frozen chickens, which puts a 25 percent tariff on imported pickups, all but preventing import dealers from selling them. In addition to spending $40,000 on lobbying in 2006, AIADA consistently puts a strong emphasis on grassroots lobbying, encouraging its individual members to meet with their representatives in Congress. Toyota, the most popular foreign carmaker, spent $4.7 million on lobbying, with $40,000 coming from Toyota Motor Sales USA, its national sales unit.
The Automotive Free International Trade PAC, which advocates for free trade but is not connected with AIADA, donated $830,000 to federal candidates, parties and committees during the 2006 cycle, 87 percent of which went to Republicans. Other issues of concern to import dealers are shared by the National Auto Dealers Assn., which gave nearly $3 million at the federal level during the2006 election cycle and advocates for disclosure of data on wrecked or stolen cars and blocking "right-to-repair" legislation that could make information on car parts available to after-market manufacturers. The trade group also opposes tightening fuel-efficiency standards and environmental restrictions.
