Harrison Ford: The Aviation's Greatest Advocate
For the majority of the general public, exposure to general aviation only comes by hosting of a local air show. Very few are able to experience flight in a small private plane let alone understand the fundamentals of air travel and its impact on the local and national economy. As intimately familiar as pilots may be with these challenges, most lack the ability and character to connect with the non-aviation community.
Someone with whom the public could trust and respect would need to step up and promote general aviation in a cohesive and personable manner. Who better than the man who epitomized characters displaying adventure, rebellion and determination on the silver screen? Hollywood aside, these traits flow deeply within the persona of Harrison Ford.
"I am like a battered old Ford. And I keep on coming back for more"
Harrison Ford pilots helicopters on rescue missions, flies his plane across the Atlantic, can navigate a 60ft narrowboat along English canals and prefers to ride his motorbike rather than sit in chauffeur-driven cars.
So when it comes to filming he has always insisted on performing his own action scenes. He has been punched, kicked, thrown through windows and has the sprains, scrapes, cuts and bruises to prove it. "I am like a battered old Ford," he tells me. "And I keep on coming back for more. If it doesn't look real on the screen then an audience does not believe what it sees."
Celebrating 100 Years of Commercial Flight
Harrison Ford stars in a new video that celebrates 100 years of commercial flights. In a special message to the 70th IATA AGM, he reminds delegates of the amazing history of flight and how they are the stewards of aviation future.

Why Earth Matters: A Conversation with Harrison Ford
Actor Harrison Ford was on location at NASA's Ames Research Center, Mountain View, Calif., last November to film a segment of Showtime's "Years of Living Dangerously" documentary on climate change. Ford toured the NASA Advanced Supercomputing facility where he met with scientists Rama Nemani of Ames and Matthew Hansen of the University of Maryland, College Park, to learn more about how NASA satellite data and research are used around the world to better understand and protect Earth.read more

Stunt kites danced to the beat of the song "Happy" on the center flying field, while on the other side of the beach a shark, penguin and plenty of octopuses fluttered in the sky.
Alan Sparling brought a giant shark kite along with a few other animals to the festival. He laughed when asked if he considers himself a professional kite-flyer. Sparling said that flying kites is more like a "hobby gone insane."
The Wisconsin Kiters Club dazzled the crowd with dolphins swimming in the air and at least 50 kites strung together across the blue sky. This was club member David Piotrowski's fourth year at the Kite Festival and he said there were at least 15 to 20 of their bright kites on the beach at any given time.
The crisp, yet sunny weather didn't keep anyone away as families and couples meandered along the Grand Haven State Park beach Saturday, pointing out small stunt kites as well as those the size of school buses.
The Great Lakes Kite Fest kicks off the festival-every-weekend season in the Tri-Cities, and is estimated to attract 35,000 people and generate $1 million for the local economy.

With the success of Tony Bennett's 'Duets: An American Classic' (Columbia), 'We All Love Ella' (Verve), the corresponding PBS Special 'We Love Ella! A Tribute To The First Lady Of Song' and now the recently released memoir Making Records: The Scenes Behind the Music (Hyperion), one would think 2007 is already the year of Phil Ramone, but there's even more to come from the protean producer. The next four months bring a medley of new music productions for film, stage and CD.
*'AUGUST RUSH' WARNER BROS FILM OUT NOV 21st, 2007
Ramone produced three tracks sung by actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers for this musically narrated drama. Ramone served as the music producer for the concert prior to the films premiere featuring performances by The Berklee College of Music Orchestra and Choir, IMPACT's Charles Mack, cellist Jenn Kuhn, and guitarists Doug Smith and Christ Trapper with Berklee solo vocalists Jennifer Hirsch, and Kevin Ross and solo instrumentalists Alex Han and Alexis Grapsas.
Ramone helped Wainwright recreate Judy Garland's famed 1961 Carnegie Hall concert in its entirety on this two disc 27 live track set.
*ANNE MURRAY 'DUETS: FRIENDS & LEGENDS' OUT JAN 15th, 2008 ON EMI
Some of the finest female voices intermingle on this album of Murray's classic songs. Recorded in Los Angeles, Nashville and Toronto, Ramone paired Shania Twain, Martina McBride, Nelly Furtado, Isabelle Boulay, kd lang, Celtic Woman, Carole King, Olivia Newton-John, Emmylou Harris, Jann Arden, Shelby Lynne, Sarah Brightman, Celine Dion, Amy Grant, Indigo Girls, Dawn Langstroth (Anne's daughter) and a previously recorded Dusty Springfield track with Anne.
*SHELBY LYNNE 'JUST A LITTLE LOVIN'' OUT FEB 5th, 2008 ON LOST HIGHWAY
Lynne explains how she chose Ramone for this homage to country legend Dusty Springfield, "I needed someone who would understand that these songs stand the test of time, and that Dusty Springfield is timeless.... Then one afternoon [my manager] Betty mentioned the guy who would understand me. He would allow me more room in the studio, and not just being the girl singer. He would choose the right band. So, I picked up the phone and called Phil Ramone."
*2008 MUSICARES PERSON OF THE YEAR HONORING ARETHA FRANKLIN FEB 8th, 2008
Ramone is currently putting together an all-star lineup for this anticipated and prestigious annual event held in Los Angeles two days before the GRAMMY Awards. Honoring the seventeen-time GRAMMY-winning recording artists Aretha Franklin is sure to produce a regal line up.
It has been since 2004 that Grace of the Sun was released. Now, Richie Havens is at it again, making finishing touches on his 27th album. Recorded last month at Sear Sound Recording in NYC, Nobody Left to Crown will be released in Europe this fall on Polydor Records. The U.S. release date and label imprint will be announced soon. Special guests on Nobody Left to Crown include Derek Trucks and Harry Manx. For more information regarding Richie's new album release, visit Brightcove.tv
Richie Havens first emerged from New York City's Greenwich Village folk scene in the early 60's, and in 1969 inspired and electrified an audience of over half a million with his legendary three hour opening performance at Woodstock.
Four decades later Richie Havens remains one of the most recognizable voices and universal lyricists in popular music. A truly timeless performer, and a man before his time, today this Brooklyn Native celebrates the reissue of two album classics (Stonehenge and Wishing Well) by Sony RED.
Haven's recently released his 26th album, Grace of the Sun, on his own Stormy Forest record label. A testament to Havens' continued evolution as an artist, Grace of the Sun is being hailed as one of his most worldly and relevant albums to date. Billboard says, "…this acoustic soul giant truly seems to be getting more inspiring and graceful with age," and Guitar Player echoes, "…as vibrant and purposeful as ever."
Richie Havens' live performance is as captivating as always; a passionate and inspiring display of timelessness and spirit. His concerts include music from Grace of the Sun as well as a broad selection of songs from his extensive repertoire. On a side note, Richie's 1981 hit "Going Back to My Roots" has hit dance floors in the form of a cool Afro-beat remix by celebrated remixer/producer and club DJ Danny Krivit.

Have you come to a DSO performance and had more than just a good time? We'd like to hear your stories from the road: have you brought a friend to a show and gotten thanked?

Now that the calendar has changed to 2005 and DSO has gotten a little bit of rest, the time has come to 'keep on truckin'! Midwest, Southwest, and West Coast: get ready for some DSO.
The band takes the U.S. by storm in January and February offering performances in every one of the time zones. A handful of multiple night stands take place in Austin at La Zona Rosa for two nights, three nights in San Francisco at the Great American Music Hall, and another two night stand at Portland's Crystal Ballroom.
The Winter Tour, kicking off in St. Louis (home to DSO drummers Rob and Dino), winds through ten states and brings the band to such hallowed rooms at the Great Amercian Music Hall, where a band called the Grateful Dead offered a quality performance in August of 1975
On Thursday, February 17, a non-DSO show day in the Bay Area, the members of Dark Star Orchestra will be joining David Gans for The Invitational at the Sweetwater Saloon in Mill Valley, CA.

As you may be aware, DSO is drawing national attention with their true-to-life performances. Rolling Stone praises "Dark Star Orchestra's fanatical attention to detail. "USA Today says DSO is "channeling the Dead" and the Washington Post declares them "the hottest Grateful Dead tribute act going Dallas Morning Newsaffirms DSO is "the next best thing to being there", the Denver Post describes Dark Star Orchestra as "a perfection-oriented practitioner of homage" and the Associated Pressnotes that DSO "takes its act to a level of detail that befits a rock band famous for its fanatical following."
Check out Glide Magazine's show review of the December 12 show at the New Higher Ground in Burlington, VT. Here's a snippet:
"Seeing these guys made me shake my head quite a few times and rub my eyes to be sure that I really wasn't seeing the Dead back in the day. I was immediately pulled in from the first notes and really enjoyed the night thoroughly always feeling at home with what they were playing. To call these guys a cover band would be just plain wrong, they are more like mystical channelers plugged into the source and not letting go!"

Spain debt remains high
Spanish government bonds were trading at around around 6.75%, slightly lower than yesterday but remaining near levels considered unsustainable to borrow from capital markets.
European Commission president: Eurozone 'will stay the course'
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso insisted today that the euro currency and the "European project" are both irreversible.
Ahead of this weekend's Greek election, which could determine the fate of the eurozone, he said EU leaders would "stay the course" in the midst of the crisis.
Speaking ahead of Monday's G20 summit, Mr Barroso said:
We are determined to show the world that the euro and the European project are irreversible.
We will leave no doubt that the European Union remains determined and will take every action needed to stay the course, defending stability and fostering growth that will be beneficial to all.
'Days, maybe hours, to save the EU'
The Euro zone is waiting to see whether Germany will open its cheque book again for Spain, and if it does, whether this will actually help.Read the full story
PM to hold meeting with EU leaders ahead of football matchby Lucy Manning - Former UK Editor
The Prime Minister is to hold a video conference with the German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Francois Hollande and other EU leaders this afternoon. They will discuss global economic problems ahead of the G20 meeting.
Asked whether Mr Cameron would be watching the football match between England and Sweden, an aide replied "there's room in his diary".
Firms rate foreign country default as biggest risk
The risks of a foreign country defaulting on its loans and an economic downturn are the two greatest risks to financial institutions, according to a biannual survey.
The Bank of England's 'Systemic Risk Survey' found that these seven risks were the most commonly cited by respondents from 73 institutions including banks, building societies and insurers:
- 'Sovereign risk' (foreign country defaulting) cited by 79% of respondents
- Economic downturn - 79%
- Funding risk - 45%
- Risks around regulation/taxes - 40%
- Risk of financial institution failure/distress - 25%
- Financial market disruption/dislocation - 21%
- Property price falls - 21%
What does 'bond yield' mean?
The yield of Spanish government 10-year bonds rose to a high of seven percent on Thursday, alarming the rest of the Eurozone. But what does 'bond yield' mean?
Governments borrow money from the markets by selling bonds. The yield is the amount that an investor can expect to get back, and it is implied by the bond's current market price.
The yield indicates how much the government that is issuing the bonds will have to pay in interest. So if a yield goes up, it becomes more expensive for the government to borrow money from the markets.
Spanish bonds yields ease to 6.75%
Spanish government bonds are trading slightly lower than yesterday at around 6.75%, but they remain near levels considered unsustainable to borrow from capital markets.
The euro hovered below its three-week highs against the US dollar this morning.
'Germany wants assurances before lending its credit card'
Paul Mortimer-Lee, the Head of Market Economics at BNP Paribas, has said that Greece and Spain face a "real problem" about how to fund themselves in the future.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, he said that no-one wants to buy government bonds from either country, and that uncertainty is spreading to Italian bonds too.
Spain is heading towards another bailout from the Eurozone as it can't afford to fund itself at current borrowing rates.
But he said that Germany is showing signs of willingness to commit more bailout money to its southern neighbours, but that it wants certain assurances first. He likened the situation to Germany wanting to lay some grounds-rules before lending its credit card to a friend.
'G20 leaders have an obligation to find a solution to this crisis'
– Oxfam Chief Executive Barbara Stocking
The euro crisis doesn't just threaten livelihoods from Athens to Madrid.
It is a clear and present danger to people in low-income countries who are struggling with grinding poverty and already feeling the effects of significant cuts in aid.
G20 leaders have an obligation to find a solution to this crisis, not just on behalf of their own citizens but to protect all those that have exhausted their means to protect themselves.
Eurozone break-up 'would hit aid'
The break-up of the eurozone could cost the world's poorest countries nearly £20 billion a year in lost trade and investment - the equivalent of almost a quarter of global aid - Oxfam warned.
As leaders of the world's biggest economies prepare to meet at the G20 summit in Mexico, the aid charity warned that the woes of the single currency threaten the living standards of people well beyond the shores of Europe.
The eurozone crisis is set to dominate next week's G20 gathering, but Oxfam chief executive Barbara Stocking urged the leaders - including David Cameron - not to forget the needs of the world's poorest countries.
Distress calls from the Spanish Government
Distress calls went out from the Spanish Government about the future of the Eurozone - after Spain's borrowing rates hit an alarming 7%.Read the full story

Richard Shute writes: The home side come into this game having been humbled by the Force in Perth, and will be looking to get back on track against Todd Blackadder's men. The return of key trio Bryce Hegarty, Tom English and Scott Fuglistaller should see the Rebels give a far better account of themselves on Friday. The rejigged Crusaders move Slade to five-eighth and Dagg to fullback, but expect this one to be won and lost in the loose.
AAP writes: Which Rebels side is going to turn up? The one that looked battle-hardened and hungry in their record win over the Cheetahs or the rabble that fell to the Force. Coach Tony McGahan has thankfully restored the line-up that trounced the Cheetahs. With key players five-eighth Bryce Hegarty and flanker Scott Fuglistaller back the Rebels should show more composure. The Crusaders have also rung the changes with Colin Slade at 10 and Israel Dagg back to his favoured fullback role. Both teams have one win for the season but expect the home side to bounce back and go ahead.
REBELS: Jason Woodward, Lachlan Mitchell, Tamati Ellison, Mitch Inman, Tom English, Bryce Hegarty, Luke Burgess, Scott Higginbotham (capt), Scott Fuglistaller, Sean McMahon, Luke Jones, Hugh Pyle, Laurie Weeks, Pat Leafa, Toby Smith. Reserves: Shota Horie, Max Lahiff, Laurie Weeks, Paul Alo-Emile, Cadeyrn Neville, Colby Fainga'a, Ben Meehan, Angus Roberts, Telusa Veainu.
CRUSADERS: Israel Dagg, Nafi Tuitavake, Ryan Crotty, Tom Taylor, Johnny McNicholl, Colin Slade, Andy Ellis, Kieran Read (c), Matt Todd, Luke Whitelock, Samuel Whitelock, Luke Romano, Owen Franks, Ben Funnell, Wyatt Crockett. Reserves: Codie Taylor, Tim Perry, Nepo Laulala, Dominic Bird, Jordan Taufua, Mitchell Drummond, Kieron Fonotia, Nemani Nadolo.

Carried away! AnnaSophia Robb turns heads in pink top and grey mini skirt... on another day of filming The Carrie Diaries
AnnaSophia Robb wears the part of the young fashionista well.
The blonde actress strut through another day of filming on the set of The Carrie Diaries in New York City on Thursday.
AnnaSophia was outfitted in a chic ensemble that included a salmon pink blouse and grey mini skirt and jacket.
Looking smart: AnnaSophia acted out another scene on The Carrie Diaries on Thursday, and wore a chic ensemble that included a pink blouse and grey skirt and jacket
Powder blue patent heels, a beaded necklace and a boldly patterned bright scarf completed the look.
The 18-year-old CW starlet was acting out a scene in which her teenage character, Carrie Bradshaw, braves the streets of Manhattan holding both a brown file box and a shopping bag from Century 21 department store.
Work and pleasure: AnnaSophia acted out a scene in which young Carrie lugs a file box and a shopping bag from clothing store Century 21
She's got legs: AnnaSophia flashed her shapely limbs while grappling with her box and bag
Not so surprising as the character has just landed a job at a New York law firm and is a shopaholic in the making.
Apparently Carrie was able to handle work duties and a little shopping too at the designer store as well.
AnnaSophia seemed to pull off the scene like a professional, even in those heels.
The Carrie Diaries is based on the best-selling novels by Candace Bushnell and is a prequel to the wildly popular HBO series Sex and The City starring Sarah Jessica Parker.
Debonair: Scott Cohen suited up nicely to shoot a scene for The Carrie Diaries on Thursday as well; he plays the father of Carrie's boyfriend
So serious: Matthew Letscher, who plays Carrie's father Tom Bradshaw, acted out a scene in which he appeared to be having a tough talk with Scott Cohen
The new show follows Carrie as a 16-year-old high school student who moves to New York City to pursue her dream of becoming a writer.
AnnaSophia, who won over audiences with her sensitive portrayal of shark victim Bethany Hamilton in last year's Soul Surfer, is definitely a ringer for Sarah now and a perfect choice to carry on the Bradshaw tradition.
AnnaSophia's naturally straight hair is now gorgeously wild with curls and she wears those designer duds so well.
Tulle girl: AnnaSophia's black evening gown was a fond reminder of Sarah Jessica Parker's tutu skirt from the original series' opening credits; AnnaSophia wore the dress while shooting a party scene on Wednesday
Pouty: Perhaps the chilly weather was making AnnaSophia frown; the actress tried to stay warm in a grey robe before going before the cameras
Meanwhile, other cast members were also on hand to film their own scenes for the show on Thursday.
Actor Scott Cohen, who plays the father of Carrie's boyfriend, looked elegant in a dark suit and grey trench coat and carried a leather briefcase.
Cohen was shooting a scene in which he appears to have a serious chat with Carrie's father, played by Matthew Letscher.
Letscher was decked out in green shirt, brown tie and brown trousers along with a tan trench coat, and he also had a brief case in hand as though he meant business.
Fans will have to wait until the series' long-awaited debut on January 14 to see how all these characters play out.

Safety and speed are hallmarks of Granite State Manufacturing's products
Glenn Lawton, president of Granite State Manufacturing, gives a demonstration of the ZeroG4, a device used to hold and work with heavy tools with little effort. At left is company CEO John Allard. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
However, immediate plans call for Granite State Manufacturing to hire five or six workers - and perhaps add another half-dozen within a year as production shifts east from the West Coast.
Equipois makes equipment that allows a worker to place a heavy tool or a human arm into a movable, mechanical arm to relieve weight and increase productivity.
He said a few case studies showed companies can recoup their investment in zeroG4 in 18 months. Savings come from workers taking fewer breaks, suffering fewer injuries and performing their tasks more accurately, he said.
About 70 percent of GSM's overall sales come from supplying military equipment, either directy or as a subcontractor.
Sequestraction, forced budget cuts by the federal government trimming the rate of military spending, have affected the company's sales by 15 percent.
"Our customers are not saying forget it," Lawton said. "They're saying, put it on hold."
"They've designed these tools to be carried by a person," Lawton said. "I bet there's a grinder that's 75 pounds. If only somebody could pick it up, they could do a lot more grinding."
The helicopters carry a $30,000 list price.
The company hopes to win a contract with the U.S. State Department and is marketing them to police departments.
Recent orders were earmarked for the governments of Afghanistan and Pakistan, Lawton said.

ODA falls to Bradenton Christian
Date: August 31, 2013
by: Kimmy Comito and Sarah Karp | Contributors
The ODA crowd dressed out in all white for their first home game of the season last night against Bradenton Christian School.
In the middle of the first quarter, Bradenton Christian made a field goal, setting the score to 0-3 with five minutes left in the first quarter.
With two minutes and 41 seconds left in the first quarter, senior Max Provost, 52, sacked BCS' quarterback for a safety, giving ODA two points on the board. BCS ended the first quarter with a touchdown, bringing the score to 10-2.
ODA freshman Jason Fineberg, 6, made a significant run after receiving the ball from quarterback, junior Jimmy Kuebler, 2. Kuebler handed off the ball to Fineberg, who rolled and dogged BCS's defense for a 17-yard run. Fineberg continued to make runs throughout the game.
After the game, Fineberg said he played "all right for a freshman" and has goals to "become faster and stronger."
Out-of-Door coach Brian Hudson rallied five of his players together as the first half came to an end and said, "Dig deep and have some more pride!" He encouraged the players to go all out with one minute left in the first half.
ODA ended the first half strong, with a touchdown by junior Austin Hoppe, 21.
During half time, Timmons gave some words of motivation to the team, "We started off slow but it isn't about how you start, it's about how you finish."
Bradenton Christian ended the game with four more touchdowns in the second half, making the final score 38–9. Last night was the first time in eight games that ODA has lost to BCS.
Next Friday, ODA will face Calvalry Christian at Christian Calvary.

Saw this over on another website, and had to repost here since it was pretty darn funny. A guy sits down with a gal he knows and records her version of Star Wars (she has never seen it), then he animates it with very funny results.
I will not comment on whether I think Sharole would have gotten the story correct-er.

SNL used to be funny back when I was a kid, we had Chris, Mike, Dana, Phil, and a bunch of others I don't remember right now.
Well, this skit was right on. It's nothing we don't know, but definitely one of those 'it would be much funnier if it wasn't so true' skits.
I have it saved to my hard drive.

"You will reach the far-off land if you keep hope alive within you." The words of Magic Frog give courage to the young mouse on his long and perilous journey to reach the wonderful land of legend. He faces many obstacles on his quest and sacrifices much to help others in need. But the mouse's compassion and faith in himself prove to be a source of great power...and bring him rewards even beyond his dreams.
About the Author
John Steptoe was born in Brooklyn. From early childhood, he drew pictures and told stories with them. He started work on Stevie, his first picture book, when he was sixteen, and Stevie was published three years later to outstanding critical acclaim. Since then, he has written and illustrated many successful books for children.
John Lewis Steptoe, creator of award-winning picture books for children, was born in Brooklyn on September 14, 1950 and was raised in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of that borough. He began drawing as a young child and received his formal art training at the High School of Art and Design in Manhattan. He was a student in the HARYOU-ACT Art Program and instructed by the highly recognized African American oil painter, Norman Lewis. He also studied at the Vermont Academy, where he was instructed by the sculptor, John Torres, and William Majors, a painter acclaimed by the Museum of Modem Art for his etchings and print-making.
His work first came to national attention in 1969 when his first book, Stevie, appeared in its entirety in Life magazine, hailed as "a new kind of book for black children." Mr. Steptoe, who had begun work on Stevie at the age of 16, was then 18 years old.
In his 20-year career, Mr. Steptoe illustrated 15 more picture books, ten of which he also wrote. The American Library Association named two of his books Caldecott Honor Books, a prestigious award for children's book illustration: The Story of Jumping Mouse in 1985 and Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters in 1988. Mr. Steptoe twice received the Coretta Scott King Award for Illustration, for Mother Crocodile (text by Rosa Guy) in 1982, and for Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters.
While all of Mr. Steptoe's work deals with aspects of the African American experience, Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters was acknowledged by reviewers and critics as a breakthrough. Based on an African tale recorded in the 19th century, it required Mr. Steptoe for the first time to research African history and culture, awakening his pride in his African ancestry. Mr. Steptoe hoped that his books would lead children, especially African American children, to feel pride in their origins and in who they are. "I am not an exception to the rule among my race of people," he said, accepting the Boston Globe/Horn Book Award for Illustration, "I am the rule. By that I mean there are a great many others like me where I come from."
Mr. Steptoe frequently spoke to audiences of children and adults about his work. He was the 1989 winner of the Milner Award, voted by Atlanta schoolchildren for their favorite author.
John Steptoe died on August 28, 1989 at Saint Luke's Hospital in Manhattan, following a long illness. He was 38 years old and lived in Brooklyn. Mr. Steptoe was among the small handful of African American artists who have made a career in children's books.

Hi BJ,
After posting my first response I ran across Ansel's name for the first time. The ME Gen Web page for Waldo county just posted records for the cemeteries in Freedom and these Bradstreets are buried in the Smithton cemetery.
Ansel b. about 1862 m. Augusta Barlow. Ansel was probably grandson of Simon and Eunice (Fuller) Bradstreet who lived in Freedom. Eunice, as a new widow, was enumerated in 1850 census with several children including four sons (Abraham, Seth, Arley, and Frederick) all of whom could be Ansel's father but the most likely one is the oldest, Abraham.
Simon Bradstreet was b. about 1808. If he was a grandson of John b. 1748, he was not s/o Eben Hale and probably not the son of young Moses or Aaron, so that leaves Thomas, Nathaniel, or John b.1779. Thomas wrote a letter supporting a request for his father's revolutionary war pension and in it he indicated that all of the above sons were living in the 1830s. Thomas was living in Albion at that time.
I have quite a bit on the Bradstreets, mostly on my line, Eben(ezer) Hale Bradstreet. Please contact me directly if you would like to compare notes.

'Nashville' – Season 2, Midseason Finale, Episode 10 – Recap & Discussion Post!
By windmills On 12/11/2013 · 10 Comments · In Nashville, Recaps
Previews tell us that a character will die in tonight's episode. Who will it be?
UPDATE: Well, I guess we're not supposed to know for sure, with a self-loathing Will appearing to put himself in line to be run over by a train and Peggy apparently shot by a man who apparently intended to kill Teddy. Or did the show just kill off both of them? Will's storyline doesn't seem complete yet and Chris Carmack was bumped up to cast regular at the beginning of this season. On the other hand, the @NashvilleWrites twitter account is sure acting like he committed suicide, and is promoting the Trevor Project. Meanwhile Peggy isn't a popular character, though Kimberly Williams-Paisley is a lovely, appealing actress (she's having fun with the cliffhanger on Twitter – @kimwilliamspais), and it's not clear what her storyline moving forward would be. A grieving, guilt-stricken and ultimately vengeful Teddy would give Eric Close a storyline in addition to being father to Maddie and Daphne (and mayor).
On tonight's episode, Juliette faced down tabloid headlines that she was responsible for the end of the Wentworth marriage, and after facing accusations (including a large "Homewrecker" sign during her set at the Music City Festival), she decides to stop lying and stop playing the media game. She gives the press a "no comment" on the rumors. After Avery helps her carry on during her set and comforts her after the fact, Avery realizes he has fallen for her. And Juliette realizes she has fallen in love with him, but of course he is with Scarlett when she goes to tell him.
Speaking of Scarlett, she feels betrayed that Gunnar and Zoe got together behind her back. She isn't very understanding when either tries to speak with her. After vacillating on what to do with Gunnar, Zoe chooses to continue their relationship, saying if Scarlett is really her best friend, she'll understand how happy Gunnar makes her.
Deacon decides to work around Mayor Teddy's petty little cancellation by playing his own set right on the outskirts of the festival, having secured permission from a friend to use his private property. He invites Gunnar to join him after Gunnar realizes Jeff Fordham has dumped him off onto a far-off outer stage at the festival. Gunnar awkwardly tries to explain the Scarlett situation and Deacon isn't here for any of the youngsters's soapy stuff.
Luke Wheeler warns Rayna that Jeff is still planning on releasing her album with their duet and a bunch of her tracks with Liam. A furious Rayna, after consulting with Tandy, decides to risk it all by selling her house, using the money she just made on tour with Juliette, and liquidating all her stocks (plus making Tandy a partner with her $3 million investment) and buying out her contract and Highway 65 for $20 million. With Deacon fresh into solo performing, it seems like a matter of time before Rayna signs him. Tandy and Rayna in business together should be fun! Rayna going off on her own appears to mean a sort of break up with Luke Wheeler.
After Layla is too chipper about Juliette's troubles in her talk with Jeff Fordham, he warns her that if she had anything to do with the tabloid leak, her contract status with the label will be in serious trouble. Layla of course denies her involvement. She calls Will, who started the episode appearing to be totally fine with playing her boyfriend and even sleeping with her. Will, after Brent tells him he knows the guys Will beat up were the guys harassing Brent and his now-ex boyfriend, sleeps with Brent. Brent has to leave to take care of business, and unfortunately Will appears to feel hollow and empty after their tryst.

I love this cheesy show.
Okay that was an ending I was not expecting.
Wow, that was good. Some of that was pretty surprising.
I guess Will is still alive.
That would be a cop out but I'm guessing he will be.
I can't stand Teddy so I hope Peggy lives just because I do not want Teddy chasing after Rayna again and trying to get her back, which I think he will do if he becomes a widower. My heart aches for Will who cannot handle the truth of his sexual orientation and is trying to commit suicide. You could see and feel his pain , suffering, depression, and hopelessness. It was heartbreaking. Bravo to Chris Carmack for his amazing performance tonight. !
You can tell that Rayna's daughter truly likes, admires and wants to get to know Deacon. If Teddy continues to interfere and get between her and Luke, I look for Maddie to rebel against Teddy and bring her closer to Deacon. And the chemistry between Deacon and Rayna is off the charts.
And I could also feel the sparks and chemistry with Avery and Juliette.
So weird how Avery started out as one of the biggest douchebags on the show, and now he's easily one of the most likable. I'm a totally Avery/Juliet shipper. I think they'd be good and interesting together, although this show isn't in the business of healthy relationships. Heh heh. Scarlett is annoying the hell out of me right now. FREE AVERY!!
I hope the Rayna/Luke thing is over. It always felt forced and awkward to me. I'm loving the new and improved Deacon, the other most likable character. I think he needs to sign with Highway 65.
Really hope Will doesn't go through with it. I find his struggles to be interesting and endearing. I hope if he survives, he finds the strength to be himself. I kind of want Peggy dead. The only problem is that that would make Teddy a more sympathetic character, and right now, I can't stand him.
Juliet is one of my favorite characters. Guess in another life I would love to be her. I agree I would love the Avery Juliet… Deacon Rayna story line. Have a feeling Luke is on the way out after their conversation at the end last night.
Really hope their ratings go up. Want to see this show hang around.
Shoot, I was off in my guesses who would be killed off. Peggy's not as surprising as Will would be. I'd be really disappointed if they got rid of him already because they have a lot of room to explore with his character still. Peggy's rather expendable, imo.
Late to the party, but despite some annoyances it was a good show. Annoyance #1 is I didn't see Juliette do a press conference (or whatever) after the Festival. Was there one or did I zone out?
I have no problem with them killing off Peggy and Will since I don't like either of their characters, but I suspect both will survive. Brent probably tackles Will at the last second and for Peggy, it's probably just a flesh wound.
I usually like Scarlett but they've been writing her as a petulant little snit and I can't root for her right now. The Juliette/Avery/Scarlett triangle should be somewhat interesting, but at the moment I want Avery to go with Juliette and Scarlett to do some major growing up.
Rayna partnering with Tandy has train wreck written all over it and Tandy's involvement in putting their father away is only minutes from being revealed.
It's going to be a long wait for new episodes. I love this show.

Hi! I'm 11. This is my first animation, it took me 3 weeks. Earlier today a user named thereturnoftomspulp stole this file from my dump and posted it. He stole it. Anyways, hope you like it!
i share the other guy's sight
a bit sad without sounds,needs improvement.but very cool indeed.never been doing flash animation,and i think i would have never made this at 11 using a laptop mouse.
Me again...
Sorry for the last review I sorta jumped the gun there. For an 11 year old this pretty good. Sound effects would make this a little better and nice twist at the end there.
Keep it up dude.
good job
hahha not bad for a 11 at least you made the legs move not bad not bad
you can still improve on this
I'm 19 and I can't really animate on flash well, so I can tell you got talent. Though, I could still see some elements that you could improve on. Try adding sound to your work, not just the voice. Oh, and a clearer storyline maybe? Points for putting neighbor totoro on your work. I'm interested to see you improve...good luck kid.
thanks for the review. it's really motivating. I know there is a lot of stuff to improve. once again, thanks.
it made it, dude!!! yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know! I'm so excited!
