Heaven and Earth are terms we are all quite familiar with, but why are they the way they are? Is it just random happenstance or is there a rhyme and reason for everything we experience? Life often seems arbitrary and cruel and then at times things just seem to fall into place; what is that all about? Today on the show I will attempt to explain these circumstances and events that we often find so hard to understand.

I wanted to say that the board on top is from an olive tree cut from my front yard. I cut wafers from a limb to get the effect, although as usual I am second guessing the choice of Paduk for the trim

August Recipe of the Month:
August Agency Spotlight: Church of Nazarene Soup Kitchen
Often we only adopt a negative perspective of the Pajaro River levee, seeing it as a dangerous place where people with addictions or mental health problems get stuck. But Margot Loehr and Arlene Betz see it differently. By reaching out to the community at the levee and they have seen that the people there are no different from you or I, they just took one bad turn, or got dealt a bad hand. That's why every week day morning at eight-thirty Margot and Arlene and a few volunteers are at the river levee serving a hot meal from their mobile kitchen.
They begin cooking at six in the morning, five days a week, in the Church of Nazarene kitchen. Then, they bring the food to the levee, set up a make-shift buffet, and serve breakfast to as many as 60 people a day. The numbers rise in the winter when fewer people have work. Arlene has been doing it for over five years, Margot for around 4 years.
With the help of several volunteers, Margot and Arlene have helped the soup kitchen grow to form a regular community. "It's an ongoing process. Over the years that we've been doing it we've seen a marked change in the people and their attitude toward us," Margot says. "I think it matters to them that we're not getting paid to be there–we're just people who care enough to get up every day of the week to cook, because we care about them."
Margot and Arlene serve soup every day, along with an occasional salad, cooked vegetables, meat, milk and cereal. Nearly all of the food they make is from Second Harvest, and since they have a very minimal budget, they usually only pick up the free food at the food bank. The day I came to visit, they were serving bagels with goat cheese that they scored for free from the food bank. Margot says, "Without the food bank, we would go under immediately. What we do purchase is through the food bank, mainly through grants we get from them."
By cooking and serving healthy food at the levee, Margot and Arlene are able to bring together people who might not have eaten for several days. Margot believes that this community, centered around food, helps people at the levee get back on their feet. Having a hearty meal in the morning can sustain someone for the rest of the day. "The first step toward solving problems is to develop community," says Margot. "There's got to be involvement on a personal level, one-to-one."
Margot and Arlene see these successes when the group at the river levee changes. Some clients are able to get housing and move on. "I have to tell you," Margot says one day as she is shopping in the distribution center. "I believe in Second Harvest as an institution. They reach out to the community, and it's about the people…people helping people. I feel honored to be a part of a place like Second Harvest."
August Nutrition Notes: Water and Health
Water forms two-thirds of our body weight. Out body depends on it. Water is part of every cell and organ in our body. It helps to keep temperature normal. It lubricates our joints, it removes wastes through perspiration, urination, and bowel movement, and it protects delicate tissues such as the spinal cord. Drinking enough water every day is important for our health. Here are some suggestions to keep yourself hydrated. Feel free to print out this hand out for clients:
Making Better Beverage Choices
Nuestros cuerpos dependen del agua que tomamos, ya que forma dos tercios del peso de nuestro cuerpo. El agua es parte de cada célula y órgano en nuestro cuerpo. Ayuda a mantener la temperatura normal. Lubrica las coyunturas, y quita el desecho por medio de la respiración el orín y por evacuación intestinal y protege los tejidos delicados tales como el de la espina dorsal.

Annie's Farewell Letter
Dear Second Harvest Food Bank Member Agencies,
At the end of July, my time here at the food bank will come to a close, as my program will be ending, and I will move on to a new job. In the wake of my departure, I would like to say thank you to all of you for a wonderful year. There are so many wonderful things about the food bank, and the most wonderful by far was meeting all of you. Getting to interact with you in the distribution center during shopping, or when I came to visit your sites, was the greatest gift I have received all year. You are the ones who work on the front lines in the fight against hunger. Your gracious efforts to promote nutrition and stop hunger in the community are truly humbling. You model true selflessness, unwavering courage, and remarkable integrity, a light that often goes unrecognized, but that is, needless to say, essential to the future of our community. When I see you show up day-to-day to cook for people who have not eaten in a few days, or to spend the day with clients that have health issues, or to provide a healthy grocery bag for a family in need, I recognize that people like you are rare in the world, and I aspire to be half as giving of my time and energy as you all are.
Each agency has brought me a new perspective, because each of you is unique in your way of problem solving and change. I hope that each of you will continue in the work that you are accomplishing, conscious of what nutritious food can do for people. An interest in food is something we all share, and the most important thing you can do is introduce someone to a new type of food that might improve their health, and ultimately improve their quality of life. So check out a few boxes of chard or kale instead of pastries—give your clients a recipe so they know what to do with it. It might just change their lives.
Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your knowledge and your busy schedules with me this year. I am so blessed to have worked alongside you all. I will carry this experience with me for the rest of my life. I wish all the best for you!
Queridas agencias del banco de comida,
Al fin de Julio, mi tiempo aquí en el banco de comida va a terminar, porque mi programa de Americorps se acabará. Quiero decir muchas gracias a ustedes por un año magnifico. Mi memoria más bonita del banco de comida es conocer a ustedes. Platicar y pasar tiempo con ustedes mientras compraban comida en el banco, o cuando yo visitaba sus sitios, era el regalo más importante que he recibido en todo el año. Ustedes están en frente de la guerra contra el hambre. Sus esfuerzos de promover nutrición y parar el hambre en la comunidad son increíbles. Ustedes tienen corazones de oro y valor invencible. Todos esos esfuerzos muchas veces no se reconocen, pero es esencial para el futuro de nuestra comunidad. Cuando les veo a ustedes cocinando diariamente para los que no han comido por tres días, o pasando el día con clientes que tienen mala salud, o llevando una bolsa de comidas nutritivas a una familia pobre, me doy cuenta de que ustedes son individuales preciosos. Espero que yo pueda tener solo mitad del corazón que tienen ustedes.
Cada agencia me ha mostrado nuevo perspectivo, y cada uno de ustedes tiene sus propias resoluciones para problemas. Espero que cada uno de ustedes siga en sus logros, mientras se dan cuenta de la importancia de comida nutritiva. Todos compartimos el entendimiento de nutrición, y lo más importante es continuar introduciendo nuevos tipos de comida que mejoran la salud de la gente que sirven ustedes. Al fin, esto puede mejorar su calidad de vida. Lleven algunas cajas de col rizada del banco de comida en vez de galletas y den a los clientes una receta para que sepan cómo usarla. Ustedes tienen el poder de cambiar las vidas de sus clientes!
Una vez más, gracias, gracias, gracias para compartir sus conocimientos y sus rutinas ocupadas conmigo este ano. Estoy muy afortunada haber trabajar al lado de ustedes. Voy a llevar esta experiencia conmigo por el resto de mi vida. Espero lo mejor para todos de ustedes!

July Agency Spotlight: Santa Cruz AIDS Project
This story was contributed by our Communications Manager here at Second Harvest, Vicki Lowell:
Santa Cruz AIDS Project (SCAP) serves men, women and children who are HIV positive living in Santa Cruz County. Their mission is to promote and participate in a comprehensive and compassionate response to HIV and AIDS through education, advocacy, and supportive services.
"There are still people living with HIV and AIDS and there is no cure," says Jessica Donahue, a Case Manager at SCAP. "We use outreach and events to educate people that this is still a current issue and to reduce the stigma."
With offices in Santa Cruz and Watsonville, SCAP currently has approximately 250 clients. In addition to counseling and advocacy, they provide a small on-site food pantry that clients may access once a week.
"Many of the clients we serve fall under federal poverty levels and rely on our food pantry to either supplement the cost of groceries, or as their primary source of food," Jessica explains. "Nutrient rich food is important to people with HIV/AIDS because it helps keep one's immune system strong to better fight disease."
Clients may access the pantry once a week, filling a bag with one of each item for themselves and their families. The majority of the food comes from Second Harvest; they also receive produce from the Homeless Garden Project.
Jessica says in addition to the produce, clients appreciate staples such as rice, beans, cereal and milk. "The spices, condiments, salad dressings and oils we receive from Second Harvest's food drives are also popular because these items are expensive to purchase at the grocery store."
"I have been so happy being able to use local produce to stay fed and healthy," says one SCAP client. "Thanks for the great produce."
SCAP relies heavily on volunteers and support from the community. One of their largest fund raising events is the Surf City AIDS Ride that takes place on September 21st. All proceeds benefit the Santa Cruz Aids Project. Registration for the event is now open.

The schooner J. & E. Riggin, a National Historic Landmark, was built on the Maurice River in Dorchester, New Jersey in 1927.[2][3] Charles Riggin had her built for his oyster dredging fleet and named her after his sons, Jacob and Edward. They all captained her at one time or another on the Delaware Bay. She was always known as a quick, light air vessel and her speed was proven in 1929 when she handily won the only official Oyster Dredging Race in the Delaware Bay. She was used for oyster-dredging until the 1940s, when the fishing regulations changed. The Riggin family sold her and she was converted to power to begin fishing for groundfish and mackerel in Cape Cod and Long Island Sound.[citation needed]
In the early 1970s she was bought by Dave and Sue Allen and converted from a fishing vessel to a passenger carrying vessel which is what she remains. Her engine was removed and cabins added below to create space for guests. The current owners bought her from the Allens in 1998.[citation needed]
J. & E. Riggin was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1992.[2][4]
|This section appears to be written like an advertisement. (September 2012)
J. & E. Riggin is part of the Maine Windjammer fleet, carrying 24 adventure vacationers and ecotourists on 3-, 4- and 6-day sailing trips in Penobscot Bay, Maine. Her homeport is Rockland, Maine and her sailing grounds range from Boothbay Harbor, Maine to Bar Harbor, Maine.[citation needed] Much of her deck, underwater planking and frames are original.
She is currently owned by Jon Finger and Anne Mahle.
|This section appears to be written like an advertisement. (September 2012)
J. & E. Riggin's sparred length is 120 feet (37 m), 89 feet (27 m) on deck, 23 feet (7.0 m) at the beam and draws 7 feet (2.1 m) with the centerboard up. She is a bald-headed schooner with low sides and a spoon bow, using a yawl boat for auxiliary power as one might a small tug boat to maneuver the vessel on and off the dock and when she is becalmed.[citation needed]

Funds, coordination key topics in conversation on ending the crime
Dane County is taking steps to raise awareness on the issue of human sex trafficking.
Dane County Executive Joe Parisi said Thursday that the county is focused on coordinated education efforts and resources for homeless and runaway youth.
The 2013 county budget includes $30,000 to replace recently eliminated federal funds that support outreach services to homeless and runaway youth, a group that youth advocates cautioned are susceptible to trafficking.
"At the very base, this problem exists because there's a demand for people to buy sex," Parisi said. "People need to realize if they're going to go out and purchase someone's body to use, that is not a victimless crime."
6 days in December scheduled for community guests
Gov. Scott Walker and his wife Tonette will invite the community to take a tour of the executive residence in early December. According to the governor's office, the tour will include views of the main rooms on the first floor. Groups will see six specially decorated Christmas trees among other holiday decor.
There is no charge for admission; however in a news release, Scott and Tonette Walker encouraged touring parties to bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the Second Harvest Food bank.
Tours are offered the following days:
Groups of 20 or more are required to make a reservation by calling 608-246-5501.
Mayor says idea stemmed from summer 'Meet and Eat'
A food truck experiment this summer lead to the mayor establishing a council this fall to continue work bringing affordable healthy food options for low-income families.
At the first meeting of his Madison Food Policy Council on Oct. 24, National Food Day, Mayor Paul Soglin made the opening statements explaining its importance.
"In terms of the farmers' market, we have one of the best known markets in the world," Soglin said. "When it comes to food policy, there is this enormous gap. I see that as an opportunity to take us to another level."
The MFPC is an extension of the Dane County board. It joins the Dane County Food Council and Coalition, but aims more to answer the question of accessibility and affordability than connecting producers to buyers, which is the focus of the county's council and coalition.
A national AARP tour will stop in Madison on Saturday.
The "You've Earned a Say" bus tour is adding its voice to the debate about Medicare and Social Security, a press release said. Madison is among the first stops on the tour, which will also stop at national conventions for both parties, candidate debates, and state fairs nationwide.
The two 28-foot trailers are equipped with six iPads which offer activities, online questionnaires, a quiz, and online Social Security and Medicare tools. The tour bus will also include a photo booth to record short videos.
The Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List) "Women Speak Out: Abortion is Not Health Care" bus tour will stop in La Crosse, Madison, and Waukesha on Tuesday, a press release said.
The 30-stop bus tour hopes to draw attention to abortion records of government officials, including President Obama and Democratic Senate candidate Tammy Baldwin.
On the tour will be SBA List spokeswoman and former Colorado Rep. Marilyn Musgrave as well as anti-abortion nurse Jill Stanek. Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch will also speak at a press conference in Madison.
The tour stopped Monday in Iowa. The tour will travel through the end of August and make additional stops in Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, and Florida.
The Wisconsin portion of the tour is co-sponsored by Wisconsin Right to Life and Wisconsin Family Action.
In the race for the Dane County Board's District 5 seat, Leland Pan won over John Magnino with 55 percent of the vote in Tuesday's election.
Pan had 207 votes to Magnino's 171 votes.
U.S. Rep. Ron Paul drew a crowd estimated at more than 2,000 for a town hall meeting Thursday night on the University of Wisconsin campus in Madison.
Paul originally scheduled the event at the Stock Pavilion on campus, a venue that can hold thousands of people. But on Wednesday, Paul changed the location to outside at the Memorial Union, along the shores of Lake Mendota.
Paul's campaign stop comes ahead of the state's presidential primary Tuesday.
Paul said his message was that the opposite of liberty is big government, so he proposes doing away with the Federal Reserve and cutting $1 trillion from the federal budget.
Cheers rang out on his stance regarding war.
"Sixty-nine percent of the American people say, 'Enough is enough. Get out of Afghanistan and bring the troops home,'" Paul said.
He also talked about why he's got a strong following among young voters.

[Newcastle radio] Luke Grant speaks about his dismissal from 2HD14Jan10
Former 2HD breakfast announcer has finally spoken publicly about his dismissal in today's Newcastle Herald. Grant maintains that the main reason for his dismissal was apparently for not playing some commercials, something the station has repeatedly denied. Here is the full story from The Herald:
DUMPED 2HD breakfast host Luke Grant says he wants his job back, and he is willing to go to court to get back on air.
Grant left the AM station suddenly last month.
Early rumours suggested that the conflict with management, a plunge in ratings and Grant's refusal to play commercials on air were to blame.
After receiving letters and phone calls of support, Grant spoke exclusively to The Herald yesterday.
It followed Saturday's announcement of Brent Bultitude as the new morning host.
Grant said his former breakfast show had been slowly starved of resources in recent years as new management tried to resurrect struggling sister station NEW-FM.
He said he was dumped because he continually complained about the lack of promotion and assistance for what was once the number one station in Newcastle.
Further, Grant described his former station as "stale" and he said he was worried about its future because it was slowly dropping Hunter based content.
"We have not kept our sound fresh," he said.
"It was the same commercials, the same ID, the same secret sound competition. We have stopped being the local voice for the community."
Grant, who had a year left on his contract, said he was unceremoniously terminated ostensibly for not playing two commercials and doing one on-air read in December, despite a computer system glitch.
"In 41/2 years I've played over 100,000 commercials and they allege I missed three and I wasn't given an opportunity to prove otherwise, he said.
"After 20 years as a commercial broadcaster why I wouldn't I play an ad?"
Grant said he had a strong caser for unfair dismissal and was scheduled to enter conciliation next month.
He described the weeks since he went off air as "tough" and said he wanted to return to the station.
"I think I have a good connection with a pretty substantial audience, I think there's more far more to do in the market," he said.
Grant, who said he was the highest paid at the station, said his sacking was not about the money.
He said that by the end, he was doing his own production work right down to writing the quiz questions.
The Herald was unable to contact 2HD station manager Guy Ashford for comment.

So the hapless Caralis-ruled Super Radio Network churns out another human resource nightmare and the Fair Work Omubdsman and ACMA will do zip. The all rights to Bill model and none to listeners, staff and the industry is wrecking careers, lives and hundreds of radio stations in three states. We should start up a Victims of Bill website where casualties (including listeners) can recant their horror experiences.
Good luck to Luke i hope he gets his job back. I hope brent gets kicked out for it he is nothing compared to the big fella. We love you Luke.
Look, the Newcastle community needs to get behind Luke Grant here, Newcastle needs local voices on the radio standing up for Newcastle not someone who recites rubbish from Wikipedia, if enough people tune out of 2HD, they might see the error of their ways. What needs to go is the networked programming not local voices.
The "Super" Radio Network already has a very vitriolic page on Facebook (something like "I Survived Caralis") with a LOT of four-letter words from previous employees. It makes for fascinating reading.
Here is the link on Facebook – http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=11808633430&ref=search&sid=751889460.2915975926..1
What Newcastle and the Hunter need is another AM radio station. If such a licence was issued to a "consortium of locals" with , perhaps, a minority of shares going to someone like John Singleton (to provide access to Macquarie news and football calls)and if people such as Luke were employed and the station was well resourced it would provide genuine "talk"/AM competition for the networked 2HD.
Such a new station should have a local breakfast format of talk, sport, entertainment and quizzes; either a local or networked (From Sydney e.g. 2GB or 2UE) morning show; a local afternoon chat and music show; a local drive program (similar to the one Aaron Kearney used to provide on 2HD before he went to 1233 ABC or to the one he and Madeleine Randall ran on 1233, with local news, talk, sport and current affairs; a local early evening program (up until around 10.00 pm) with a mixture of news, talk, competitions and music; and a networked feed in the later evening and "overnight".
But such anew local station should be a local broadcaster when most people listen i.e. breakfast, drive and early evenings.
Why on earth would Luke want to go back to work for that fool Caralis ? I'd rather pack shelves at Coles…….at least the pay, conditions and environment are fair !
Well Done Luke. You should know that you have a large contingency of people backing you. You have my support all the way. Don't be afraid to ask 'your listeners' for some help. It will be a battle and at times you will wonder what the heck you are doing…but it will be worth it in the end. Good Luck.
It's no surprise to read the sentiment of emotion that has surfaced by what I think is probably the dumbest decision I've seen in more than 33 years of radio. I said before 2HD, you have awoken the beast this time and you will pay for it.
Luke Grant never achieved the huge ratings numbers of D & T at 2HD, although he did win against them for the first 2 books after they moved to KO early 2000, however Luke was a huge success for 2HD's target audience and his listeners, more so the second time round in 2004 – 09. D & T didn't have to put up with constant meddling (is that a word?) to programme matters from the station owner which had an indirect effect on their breakfast show. (2HD, apart from the John Laws show was very much a Newcastle radio station). That's exactly what Luke and others, Cameron Williams, Warwick Johnson, Warren Moore, Christie Atkins, Leighton Archer, Gavin Morris, Richard King, Pete Davis, Mike Rabbitt, Gary Harley, Gary Stewart even Carter and myself all endured. Not to mention the multitude of off air people in Promotions, Production, Technical, News, Sales, Copy, Traffic and Admin. D & T were very clever and left not long after Bill bought the license.
As the former Program Director who lured LG back to 2HD, mate, my apologies. All of these radio professionals deserved so much better. Newcastle radio is poorer for your loss.
A former GM of mine and a sensational radio man always said, amongst other pearlers, "Fish always rot from the head down". Unless you've worked for TSRN you can't even begin to imagine the smell. It's a disgrace how this company has cut away at local radio in Australia. I should add TSRN is not the only network to cut local content from regional Australia stations. The industry needs a huge shake up starting with license holders and the number of licenses they may control.
its about time 2hd management took response for the stations decline you have some wonderful announcers on 2hd for almost 68 years i have listened to this station and the replacement for luke is rubbish also you change the format to often even buy sell and swap sunday was fine but know saturday is garage sale day for most people wake up and give the listeners what they want to listen to not rubbish we have now . give luke his job back and sack the management
Well said Kev I know networking is the way the radio industry is going but not to the extent TSRN has gone i mean there is absolutely no variety on 2HD just inane talk back 24/7 once they did have some music at various times of the day but even now the NEW breakfast show is all talk with questions asked by Brent who has little or no idea or patience for that matter bye bye 2hd. 2HD your new local community station.
Kev's comments are pretty much spot on. Listening to the two new Breakfast shows on NEW FM & 2HD this week one can only draw the following conclusion: If Guy Ashford's brief was to find the two worst breakfast shows to put on the air, then he has succeeded. What is coming out of the speakers now from BOTH Sandgate stations takes Newcastle radio to such a low place, it has never been there before.
OK Kev, Why not you be the stimulus to drive for a new commercial AM radio licence for Newcastle / Lake Macquarie / Lower Hunter.
Track down and recruit the business interests.
Then track down and recruit former announcers to join Luke and blow 2SRN (formerly 2HD) out of the ratings race on AM.
You have mentioned some. There are many more such as Bill Grundy, Tony Briscoe, Ross Allen and others. Some have moved on to other careers but there must be a number who would love to be part of a new exciting local commercial AM venture in our area.
Hey Jack, whether you like it or not, ACMA hands out the licences, not Kev and other radio professionals.
There are no new licences planned for Newcastle in the foreseeable future.
I am aware of that, "Whoopsie" but powerful lobby groups can achieve much, especially if they are supported by a wide cross-section of the community. Someone with connections needs to start the ball rolling.
i spoke to a former Sydney On-Air talent & NEWFM breakfast host (& Co-Host) last Monday (Jan 15) who told me that a major player offered Dill Caralis more than $8m for 2HD & NEWFM about 10 years ago & then double that amount in 2007,for both stations.Caralis's string-pullers answer (both times) was "mate why should he sell it when he can let them go down the gurgler & use it as a Tax dodge" ?
that same person (the former NEWFM breakfast host & Co-Host) was in chats with a bigwig from the Nova network last night at a restaurant in Hamilton.so caralis can keep his shitty stupid-radio-network & as for Luke Grant fans (& Newcastle's more selective & appreciative fans of GOOD radio in general) get ready for an infiltration of a decent radio station (minus never-was's of the ilk that are running the sinking ship at sandgate).& i can assure you all the good blokes who are still around like kev kellaway & luke grant will be the first ones poached to run it.you read it here first.
I was so glad to hear Luke's side of the story. Our family and clients all want you back Luke and it's obvious we're not alone!!! To the Management at 2HD, I'm (currently, however this may change soon) an advertiser with you and Newcastle's a very small town so word travels fast. From what I've heard you need to pull your head in and spend more time promoting and fine-tuning the talent that's available to you (LUKE!) instead of re-hashing old, useless no-hopers we rejected the first time over just because you're friends with them or because they can give you a free lunch at their restaurant!?!! We pay your bills and we need you to have good talent to sell our products. Luke was good talent! He was entertaining and across every issue and genuinely loved his community and job! And what options do we have now?? I would rather listen to someone scrape their nails down a blackboard than listen to the monotonous, predictable, childish and ill-educated banter coming out of 2KO's breakfast has-beens and the new 2HD breakfast show should be bottled up and sold in the chemist to help people get to sleep more easily!2HD you have made a big mistake! and don't think we haven't forgotten that Luke was fired one week out from Christmas!!! Hang your head in shame Mr Ashford!
After reading Luke Grant's article in last weeks Newcastle Herald and the many concerns voiced on this forum in regards to the welfare of 2HD,it is with great delight to share with you on a more positive note on how much I've been welcomed back to the fold since my return to radio on a very casual basis at 2NURFM.
From the moment I stepped through the front door it has been a pleasure to be doing on air work there. I must admit I was pleasantly suprised on how well the radio station is run on a day to day basis which is a great credit to all the people in senior roles and the many volunteers who do an outstanding job.
Radio to me will always be in my veins and to be given to opportunity to continue my dream albeit on a casual basis remains very important to me.
To Wayne,Todd,Kath,Jack,Dave C and all the great staff thanks for thinking of me.Radio to me will always remain a part of my life and it is with a lot of great pleasure for me to say that I am pleased to be able to come on here and talk about what a great experience I have had so far.
I thought a bit of positive news would lighten up the doom and gloom of the many comments on this forum.
Good radio is still out there, it's just a matter of finding it.
Pete Davis
Tune into 1233 Pete.
A bit like what 2HD was!
Hi Dismist, Are you talking of a digital radio station, a new AM station, a new FM station or a relocation (of say 2NM)?
Pete are you saying 2NUR is good radio? Mate 2NUR is as stale as 2HD!
g'day jack.if the conversation i took part in (in parts) becomes actuality,it's going to be all of the above except the 2NM section.
BTW.great to see pete davis,one of the most astute gentlemen in radio & a top perfectionist of his on-air craft, back in this area & back doing a job in front of the microphone.here's hoping you've received a positive welcome back.
My friend at The Herald that tiped me off about Luke being in the paper last week just called to say he is talking to chanel 9. They are not sure what is happening but it looks like this thing is turning into somthing bigger than one thought. Good work Lukey we are all behind you 100% Ashford and Bultitude suck!
A tweet on Twitter from Luke today thanked people for the support he has received and stated that the fight to right the wrong would go on with more news to come shortly.
Why would you wish to return to HD, though, Luke?
Other opportunities must exist for you.
Well Luke at last we have found out whats going on NOT HAPPY JAN WE were so upset when you went off air NOW WE LISTEN TO A ANOTHER STATION STILL NOT HAPPY JAN WILL NOT BE HAPPY TILL YOU COME BACK. YOU HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO THING THE WORLD OF YOU DONT FORGET AND ARE RIGHT BEHINE YOU
BEST WISHES and GO THE ROOSTERS
WE MISS YOU LUKE. GOOD LUCK With ALL
Thats going ON. HOPE TO HEAR YOUR VOICE
Soemthing has to be done, the only voice brent bulitude likes to hear is his own. It is painfull.
We need Luke back on the air and someone to replace "howdy" on Friday and Saturday nights between midnight and dawn.
We had a great station (once) lets try and get it back
2HD has gone to pot. Late night news broadcasts are a day behind the times, local sport and news has taken a back seat, and local personalities with a following in the area have been replaced with tripe shovelled in from outside. Luke Grant was informative and entertaining, and seemed to give his advertisers a good coverage. I've tried to listen to Brent a couple of times, but he just doesn't come up to the mark for me, so I don't listen to 2HD any more. Luke Grant's axing was the last straw, following on from Mike Rabbitt and the pathetic treatment of Richard King. Don Burke, buy sell and swap, weekend talk shows and Talkinsport with the same callers every day all add up to a pretty boring format, so I can't see 2HD surviving long-term without major changes at the top and a bit of stability in their dealings with staff. I seem to recall that Cameron Williams when he left made the same comments as Luke Grant about lack of support and resources, so obviously the clowns at the top don't learn from past blunders. Luke, I hope you have success in the future, whether you manage to win back your job or not, although I can't imagine why you would want to continue working for a pack of boneheads. It's a sorry state of affairs for what used to be the Hunter's leading radio station.
What has happened over the past couple of months is a sad indictment of the state of Newcastle radio. OK, it's every management's prerogative to make changes to their on air line up for whatever reasons…..but to replace Luke Grant with a totally inept and incompetent announcer called Brent is sheer lunacy. If this new guy had been better, or even the equivalent of Luke, then you'd have given him a go, but seriously, he is totally unlistenable. However, I'm told he IS a very good friend of the General Manager…just like his counterpart on NEW FM. It's not what you know, it's who you know. One thing the audience knows Mr A, is how to vote with their Nielsen diaries and if you thought you were failing and going backwards in 2009, wait till you see what the survey Gods deliver you in 2010 !
Don't understand the politics. Came from 2re found 2hd loved Luke Grant his content may have been stale but he was not. Importantly he made me laugh, kept me informed and cared about the community. He was your best 2hd so I guess I will try 1233 and hope we get told when Luke finds a new position without having to do a google search what happened to Luke Grant (best of luck Luke)
maybe luke grant was sick of steve st.john acting as if he's part psychiatrist,part lawyer,part educative genius,part journalistic genius,part supersalesman etc,etc.what's the old saying ? jack of most trades,failure at all ???
Moved up to Salamander Bay from Sydney 2 years ago.Luke was a breath of fresh air. Won't be listening again until he returns.
the new guy is so boring and full of his own importance!!!
A mate is doing some work for Luke and he was telling me about how Luke said he was surprised with all the workmates who have come forward to agree to be witnesses for him. He reckons if it goes to court it will be very embarassing for a couple of people. This is about to get interesting.
Seen some comments about his replacement and have to agree. If he was better then give him a go but he is unfunny and stuck in the 70′s. Aaron has now got me at brekky.
yer bring back luke my wife misses him and the quiz .good luck luke
just a query.has anyone from the herald been able to contact guy ashford yet or is the 2hd/New fm phone still disconnected presumably from not paying their bill…or in this case paying their Bill Caralis ?
Pete Davis and Luke Grant both spoke their mind and weren't afraid to do so. They were excellent announcers on 2HD and now that they are gone the station has lost, to me, a lot of its appeal.I'd love to see them back as they were sunshine in my day.
I'm happy that Luke is here in Melbourne .
All I can say to Managemnt of Super Radio Network is…
You have given MacQuarie Radio Network/Pacific Star Network someone of great tallent and I thank you for this.
By you sacking Luke From 2HD has given Luke a great chance to relocate to Melbourne and help develop MTR 1377.

The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne Blasts "Hateful Pathological Liar" Kliph Scurlock, Apologizes to Native Americans
"Him saying I'm verbally abusive? It's a joke."
By Jeremy Gordon on May 9, 2014 at 10:55 a.m. EDT
Photo by George Salisbury
In March, longtime Flaming Lips drummer Kliph Scurlock left the band. Last week, Scurlock sent Pitchfork a detailed account of his departure that laid the blame at singer Wayne Coyne's feet, saying he was fired for criticizing Christina Fallin, a friend of Coyne's who was publicly accused of racism after she wore a Native American headdress in a photo.
Scurlock also criticized Coyne's predilection for publicity stunts, such as supposedly encouraging Scurlock to start a Twitter beef with the Black Keys, and said his time with the band was often fraught with discord. "I put up with endless verbal (with threats of physical) abuse from Wayne because I absolutely loved the music we were making and playing," he said.
Now, Coyne has disputed Scurlock's allegations in an interview with Rolling Stone. Calling Scurlock a "compulsive pathological liar," he says that Scurlock's account is just a smokescreen:
The only thing that we would have to say about Kliph leaving is that he just was not very significant to us. And all the things he's saying about the reason he was fired, it's all just made-up lies. He knows we struggled with him for years and it didn't occur to us that it seemed that significant. I don't even use the word "fired." He just doesn't play drums with us anymore – that's the way I'd put it.
He defended Fallin, and apologized for seeming insensitive in his support for her:
I would say that I'm very sorry, to anybody that is following my Instagram or my Twitter, if I offended anybody of any religion, any race, any belief system. I would say you shouldn't follow my tweets; you shouldn't even probably want to be a Flaming Lips fan because we don't really have any agenda. We go about doing things through our imagination. And I would say that if we wrongly stepped on anybody's sacredness, then we're sorry about that. That was never our intention.
But Christina is our friend. She's young, and she's trying to feel her way through social media and I don't think she's very good at it. And Kliph is an online bully. He can jump on hating Dave Grohl, and we can be like "whatever." But when it's really someone that you actually know, and you're like "Really? You're going to call her a cunt?"
He also says Scurlock was fired for musical reasons—"as time went on, he got to be a lazier and more close-minded musician"—and not specifically for speaking out against Fallin. In particular, he says that Scurlock had a history of negative behavior, which grew to be a problem as he continued to be associated with the Flaming Lips name:
Anybody who knows him knows what kind of a hateful person he is. I mean, anybody that looks at his stuff could see that most of the bands that we would play with, he despised them. To their face, he would say, "You guys were great" and then 20 minutes later he'd get online and say, "These people are a bunch of fakes. They suck." That would be almost every band we ever played with. The more that time went on, people would pay more attention to him because of his connection to the Flaming Lips.
The reason that it's connected to the Fallin thing, it's like, "If you're going to be that hateful, you can't be associated with the Flaming Lips." And that was one of a thousand things that he would go on his Twitter or Instagram or the fake ones that he's created. That's what he would do all the time. We would play a show with some bands and the next day, he would say how stupid they are and how much they suck. But after the Christina thing, people brought it to my attention, and it's like, "Dude, he says bad shit about all of our friends."
It's a lengthy interview, and worth reading in full. Coyne also addresses past beefs with Erykah Badu and Arcade Fire.
Elsewhere, he says the Lips will replace Scurlock with two drummers. He also says he's looking to move on from the dispute.
"I don't even like talking about our ex-drummer," he said, "because it just uses up this space that we could be talking bout this cool shit we're doing with Sean Lennon and My Morning Jacket and Miley [Cyrus], and I don't want any of that tainted."
Correction: An earlier version of this story stated that one of Scurlock's replacements would be Clive Deamer, who's worked with Portishead and Radiohead. Instead, Coyne was using Deamer's work with those bands as an example of what the Lips are looking for.

After racing in the Pro division for quite a number of years with a Bantam roadster, Garrett Quinlan made the decision to purchase a dragster and join the ranks of Super Pro. The Pepsi Nightfire was a very significant weekend for the Quinlan family. He not only earned his first Super Pro victory, but he won it on the single biggest night of the season at Firebird. Winning the $7,500 Bracketeer grand prize, big check and title on Saturday night of the Pepsi Nightfire Nationals was an extraordinary feat, a dream of countless racers. His car worked flawlessly and he was able to edge out Jake Neibauer from Billings in a classic "open wheel" versus "door car" final. Congratulations to Garrett and his entire family `n friends for winning the big one. Given the consistency of his Cobalt Off-Road Center ride, we wouldn't doubt all of us will be seeing more him visiting victory lane at future events.

There was certainly plenty for the attending photographers including the club's own John Peters and Matt Peters to capture, including Danny Welbeck's 18th-minute strike, Marouane Fellaini's first appearance on foreign soil for United and Antonio Valencia's industrious shift on the right flank.
With the Reds having to withstand large amounts of pressure from the relentless Ukrainians, skipper Nemanja Vidic and his central defensive cohort Chris Smalling both enjoyed solid displays, keeping the perpetually tricky Luiz Adriano at bay. It was Taison who eventually equalised for Shakhtar, ending the Reds' resistance.
Why not take a look through some of the snaps taken by photographers inside the impressive Donbass Arena.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- The "special committee" of Dell Inc. dell board members who negotiated the pending privatization deal with founder Michael Dell and Silver Lake issued a statement on Wednesday defending the deal as the best option for the PC maker. In the statement, the committee said it evaluated numerous alternatives before agreeing to the $13.65-per-share buyout offer from Silver Lake. "We further insisted on a number of important provisions in the transaction to protect and maximize value for stockholders," the statement read. "These include a low break-up fee and a robust go-shop process under a fee structure that incentivizes our financial advisor, Evercore, to find a superior deal if one exists." The statement said Evercore will conclude its process on March 22. Some large shareholders such as Southeastern Capital are opposing the deal, arguing that the price is too low. Dell shares were last trading down a fraction at $14.05.
