Demitasse celebrates the release of their debut CD, Blue Medicine, with an intimate show at the beloved Hyde Park Theater.
The HPT is perfect venue for Demitasse performance, which has been labeled "a harmonious combination of Bo Burnam, Demetri Martin and Bob Dylan… or a weird permutation of Tenacious D and Johnny Cash: at once hilarious, poignant and really good." (Rivard Report)
NPR named Demitasse a top band to see at SXSW 2014 and their single "Comfy Coffins" is receiving national airplay. You can hear it here.
The night will be extra special because local Austin friend Danny Malone will play a rare solo acoustic set.
Seating at the Hyde Park Theater is limited. Beer and wine will be available at the theater.
If you are in Austin, drop by.

All in all, I truly liked the shoes, but had to return them because they were clearly meant for Andre the Giant, and not someone who wears your average 7.5. I only wish the gold would have been toned down a bit (like the picture), and was just a band that continued like I thought it would along the foot (like an arc), instead of an "S" shape.

'The violence has to stop'
West End residents take to streets in effort to reclaim them
Several hundred residents from the West End marched peacefully through their neighbourhood Tuesday night in a bid to reclaim it from the violence and gangs that appear to be tightening their grip on the community.
The march was the neighbourhood's response to the shootings last week that claimed the life of 16-year-old Kyle Earl and injured his 13-year-old friend, Byron Cook -- in what police said was a targeted gang attack -- and wounded two sisters, aged eight and 10 years, 24 hours later when bullets flew through their front window.
Police say the girls' house was wrongly targeted.
"People have to come forward and speak out and that's what we're doing here," Maria Ludington, 46, who moved here as a young teen from the Philippines, said. "For too long people have been silent, been scared. Now, we've got to speak up."
The community march drew people of all ages and ethnic backgrounds; Asians, aboriginals, Filipinos and blacks from Africa and the Caribbean; short and tall, blind and newborns. Children wore colourful handmade hats. Children and adults carried homemade signs that visibly stated what the march meant to them all: 'I want to be safe', 'stop the violence', 'no more guns', 'I want respect'.
"I'm here because I'm hoping somehow this can help the violence stop," said Nelson Landon, 14, a friend of Cook's. "The violence has to stop."
A handful of politicians and known community activists joined the residents, including Premier Greg Selinger, Justice Minister Andrew Swan, MLA Rob Altemeyer, city councillor Harvey Smith, Nick Ternette and former MLA Marianne Cerilli.
But the evening belonged to the residents. It's a place they love, where they want to raise their children, but they are concerned about the hold violence and gangs have taken in the community.
Carol Spicer, 59, said she recently returned to the neighbourhood after living almost three years in Chase, B.C.
"Something has happened to this city while I was away... it's gotten worse," Spicer, who lives on Sherbrook Street, said. "Look at the people, even the white people... they're bedraggled. Something has happened to Winnipeg."
Mathieu and Alana Manaigre are raising two young children in the neighbourhood they say is the nicest in the city.
"People ask us all the time, every day, why we live here," Mathieu Manaigre, an IT consultant, said.
"I've lived everywhere in this city, in Linden Woods and Island Lakes, but the neighbours here are the best, we have a great sense of community," said Alana Manaigre.
She was at her Toronto Street home when the shootings occurred and saw the heavily armed police tactical units swarm the streets.
"It's scary. You don't want that kind of stuff happening where you live and where you want to raise your kids," she said.
"We're concerned about the violence but at the same time we don't find it unsafe," Mathieu Manaigre said.
Ludington said all her neighbours work, some even two jobs, including herself. She said the powers that be in this city have turned their back on the West End.
"Look at the sidewalks, the roads; they're all crumbling, cracked and crooked. We pay taxes, too, but our kids don't have any place to play."
Nelson Landon came to the march, bringing with him a group of younger kids from Rossbrook House, where he works as a supervisor. Nelson said his older brother and sister have said the area has changed for the worse and he's worried -- about himself, his friends and the young kids who clearly look up to the big, hulking 14-year-old.
"There's more drugs. Everyone thinks you're in a gang just because you're big. Before, people would just beat each other up but now, people are getting seriously injured and killed," Nelson said. "This has got to stop."
Anne and Vic Pereira came out Tuesday night because their church, the First Lutheran Church, is smack in the middle of this neighbourhood. Anne's family goes back four generations to this community -- her great, great grandfather was the church's first pastor.
"We feel that we're part of this neighbourhood and we have a responsibility to help people make a change in their lives," Anne Pereira said. "There is so much strength here. This is an opportunity for the people of this neighbourhood."

Why I'm Returning My Nexus 5
Just got off the phone with Google to return my Nexus 5 less than 24 hours after I opened the package. Why you ask?
The Ergonomics
It was obvious after holding this device for 10 minutes that it is a serious ergonomics regression from the Nexus 4; the red pressure point where the bottom corner digs into my palm is a testament to that. While the overall dimensions have not changed all that significantly from the Nexus 4, the significantly sharper corners completely change the reach of my thumb in one-handed usage. For me, that change brings me back to the ergonomics of my HTC One X; great device, but way too much hand yoga while I check email between meetings.
The Materials
Where the Nexus 4 had a grippy soft-touch rubber siding that the tips of my fingers could grip in one-handed usage, the Nexus 5 has a slippery plastic side that requires me to re-grip constantly. The confidence I have holding the Nexus 4 is just gone -> I now have to think about how I handle this device.
The Disappointment
I really wanted to love this device. I obsessed over the leaks, the details, anticipated the lifting of embargo at 2pm EST, and reverse engineered the 32gb white page before it went live on the main storefront so I could order while stock remained. I blindly trusted Google that the Nexus 5 would continue to take into consideration the intricacies of ergonomics and materials, and deliver a device that continued to fit in my hand with comfort and confidence. As a 5'10" guy with regular sized hands, I can't imagine I'm the only person with the same experience.
The software is fantastic, the screen is amazing, and the camera even sucks less than The Verge led me to believe. But, I just can't justify all those benefits when the phone feels terribly uncomfortable in my hand.
The irony is that I'll be switching to a MotoX - another Google device - which does deliver a fantastic "in your hand" experience. I'll just have to deal with older Android builds to get it. Curse you Google for your inconsistent design!

Found February 23, 2013 on MLB Injury News:
PLAYERS: Johan Santana
TEAMS: New York Mets
TEAMS: New York Mets
The New York Mets have elected to push back Johan Santana's first start of spring training as a precautionary measure, according to Marc Carig of Newsday. Carig notes that New York is holding Santana back to allow him to continue to build up his arm strength, not because they are concerned with an injury. Carig says there is no structural damage that is cause for concern. Alderson said Santana has no structural issue. But he needs to build up arm strength. Will keep long tossing. — Marc Carig (@MarcCarig) February 22, 2013 Santana's first start of the spring was slated to come March 2, but because he's behind schedule in his throwing program it will be bumped to a later date. It doesn't seem to be a major setback, as New York is understandably taking things slow and hoping to put the veteran in the best position to be successful entering the regular season. Even with his delayed spring debut, Santana will still be on track to be the Mets' Opening Day starter.

Mary McCarthy once said of her novels that she took real plums and put them into an imaginary cake. "The Words" deals with struggling novelist Rory Jansen (Bradley Cooper), who happens across an entire truckload of someone else's plums. He claims them as his own, publishes them to great renown, then comes face to face with the man to whom they belonged in the first place.
Since this is an artsy work, said author, played by Jeremy Irons, is known simply as the Old Man.
Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal, who co-wrote and co-directed, know how to hit all the gratifying flashback notes. Jansen finds the stunning romantic novel of postwar Paris in a battered briefcase his wife Dora (Zoe Saldana) bought there on their honeymoon.
In reading the manuscript, the narration ponderously informs us, Jansen was "confronted by everything he ever appeared to be and the reality of what he would never become."
The story unfolds in a three-tiered frame, beginning with novelist Clay Hammond (Dennis Quaid) reading from his book about the deception, and including the Old Man's bitter recounting of his life story to the stunned Jansen.
Ernest Hemingway references abound—as a reminder that all good fiction originates with suffering. That sentiment notwithstanding, the Paris scenes are postcard perfection.
Jansen knows he has to make a choice when he encounters the Old Man. But the filmmakers, coming from an industry where the theft of ideas is more common than it is for fiction writers, muddy their resolution and cheat a bit. To elucidate whose story this really is, there's a postlude with Hammond explaining to flirtatious graduate student Daniella (Olivia Wilde) how novelists plunder their own lives.
This talky drama is just the thing for those yearning to don tweed and corduroy, sip red wine and discuss literature on rainy nights.
The film contains two premarital situations as well as occasional profane and crude language. The Catholic News Service classification is A-III—adults. The Motion Picture Association of America rating is PG-13—parents strongly cautioned. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
*****Kurt Jensen is a guest reviewer for Catholic News Service.
"This Franciscan message is sorely needed in the world...." -- Publishers Weekly
Fr. John's advice on Catholic spiritual questions will speak to your soul and touch your heart.
"I highly recommend this charming book for every Christian family, school, and faith formation library." – Donna Marie Cooper O'Boyle, EWTN host
This book distills wisdom from Merton's books and journals on enduring themes still relevant to readers today.

Kim Jong Un-believable Likeness Launches New Career For Australian Musician
A haircut and some makeup was all it took for a Hong Kong musician to transform himself into one of the world's most notorious dictators, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. When Kim inherited power from his dead father, friends teased the Australian-Chinese musician about his resemblance to the world's youngest leader. After all, I'm a musician, so it's about the performance," said Howard, who declined to give his surname in order to keep his music and impersonation careers separate. Howard, who charges HK$5,000 ($645) for party appearances, said being a Kim doppelganger can be a funny experience but he also hopes to stir up dialogue about North Korea and its human rights issues.

Pleasanton Soccer Clubs...talking to the wall

"Why do a survey if you aren't going to give it any weight???"
You mean like surveying the public about coaches or health care? Those in charge are going to do what they want to do and make excuses about survey results. Large businesses do them with absolutley no change coming from the results, so why would we expect these soccer clubs to be any different. THe board and coaches are all friends and they will keep whoever wants to stay. I'm really no that concerned, but then again I don't live in the world of high stakes soccer (and yes, I have been a volunteer coach for RAGE in the non-competitive side)
on Apr 27, 2010 at 9:53 pm
Joe, when you say things like "Ironically there are coaches out there who haven't been given the opportunity," you're treading dangerously close to communism.
Tread carefully. We're watching you.
on Apr 27, 2010 at 11:34 pm
My daughter was in RAGE and we had a very good coach. The problem was that the league cancelled games very often, even with the smallest rain. I do not know if that was RAGE or Pleasanton, but we certainly had a lot of cancelled games. But the coaches we dealt with were all excellent.
on Apr 28, 2010 at 3:24 pm
Games canceled due to rain is the city's call. The sports leagues have no say in it.

The Georgia Southern Eagles have one last chance before the Southern Conference tournament to do something they've yet to do this season - win on the road.
Anna Claire Knight, Tashayla Steede and Kayla Upchurch will join the Georgia Southern Lady Eagles basketball team and coach Rusty Cram for the 2011-12 season.
CULLOWHEE, N.C. - The Georgia Southern Lady Eagles held a nine-point lead in the first half, but fell 51-45 to Western Carolina Monday at the Ramsey Center.
Georgia Southern started its season with a bang.
SPARTANBURG, S.C. - Noah Dahlman had 17 points and Jamar Diggs added 16 as Wofford held off a late Georgia Southern rally to win 69-61 on Saturday night and sweep the season series.
LUBBOCK, Texas - Voting has begun for the 2011 National College Baseball Hall of Fame class and former Georgia Southern coach Jack Stallings is one of 10 finalists in the coaches group.
The 2011 softball season is right around the corner, and according to the preseason chatter, half of Georgia Southern's seniors are the best in the Southern Conference at what they do.
GREENVILLE, S.C. - Georgia Southern Men's Basketball fought tooth-and-nail with Furman on Thursday (Feb. 10th) night but fell 54-45 to the Paladins at Timmons Arena. The Eagles trailed by three points with 4:51 left, but a 9-0 run to gave Furman a lead that would not be relinquished. Sophomore Zuri James (Stone Mountain, Ga.) scored 16 points as junior Ben Drayton III (St. Marys, Ga.) scored nine with nine rebounds and nine assists to end his 14-game double-figure scoring streak.
As the regular season starts winding down and Georgia Southern continues searching for its first Southern Conference win, fatigue has been an issue.
There was just something different about this year's Georgia Southern football recruiting class.
Elon scored 28 points off of 21 Georgia Southern turnovers, but the Lady Eagles fought back, forced overtime and got a down-to-the-wire win for the second game in a row as they held off the Lady Phoenix 71-69 Monday at Hanner Fieldhouse.
The last time Georgia Southern played UNC Greensboro, Meredyth Frye had a chance at a game winner.
On February 22, 2010 in Birmingham, Ala. against Samford, Georgia Southern won its last Southern Conference game.
Ben Drayton joined a pretty exclusive group of Eagles Thursday in Chattanooga.
For the sixth-straight season, Georgia Southern will host the "Pack the House in Pink" event in support of breast cancer awareness at Hanner Fieldhouse.
Any time a new coach inherits a wide receiver coming off a 1,000-yard season, it's a good reason to be excited. When the entire team barely cracked 1,000 receiving yards, one might think it would be a cause for concern.
Edwin Jackson, Georgia Southern's leading tackler in 2013, was named preseason second-team, All-Sun Belt and its a good thing, because he's really the only linebacker in the mix that played a lot of football last year.
If the Georgia Southern Eagles wanted to, they could start a senior at each position on the offensive line.
Every coach at the Sun Belt Football Media Day last week in New Orleans said pretty much the same thing about winning in the conference - you need a good quarterback and a good defense.
It was all business when the Georgia Southern Eagles took to the Beautiful Eagle Creek practice fields on Thursday morning for the first day of fall camp.
The NCAA has made things a lot easier for a first-year head football coach to install his system.
Scott Farmer has a unique perspective on Georgia Southern's transition from the Football Championship Subdivision to the Football Bowl Subdivision Sun Belt Conference.
Eric Alonzo (P, GSU)
When Georgia Southern's Edwin Jackson and Garrett Frye were asked what if felt like to be named second-team, All-Sun Belt before the 2014 season, they looked at each other for a quick moment.
On Tuesday at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans at the Sun Belt Football Media Day, SBC commissioner Karl Benson expressed his support for a recent proposal that would change the NCAA Division-I landscape.
NEW ORLEANS -- Georgia Southern and Appalachian State have long been known for having two of the best gameday atmospheres in the Football Championship Subdivision.
NEW ORLEANS - The Sun Belt Conference's 11 institutions are prepared to pay more to remain part of major college football, commissioner Karl Benson said Tuesday.
NEW ORLEANS - The one word that was thrown around all day was "unknown."

Landmark Aviation completed the acquisition of Ross Aviation's network of 18 U.S. FBOs on Friday. The former Ross Aviation facilities, which are now operating under the Landmark banner, are located in major cities and resort destinations within the U.S., including Denver; Santa Fe, N.M.; Miami; and six locations in Hawaii. The acquisition increased the size of Landmark's network from 57 to 75 locations globally.

Textron's TRU Simulation + Training subsidiary acquired ProFlight, a Carlsbad, Calif.-based FAR Part 142 training center specializing in the Cessna CitationJet and Conquest, as well as Pro Line 21 avionics. Since it was founded in 1988, ProFlight has trained thousands of pilots and continues to grow "as its training model appeals to a broad range of pilots, from owner operators to corporate aviation departments." ProFlight will continue to operate from its Carlsbad facility.
Sandia Aerospace has developed a low-cost standby display, the SAI 340-Quatro, which retails for $3,595. The Quatro provides airspeed, attitude, altitude and slip indications in a lightweight instrument that fits into a standard three-inch instrument hole. The Quatro weighs half a pound and is just 1.4 inches thick. The unit's lithium-polymer battery provides power for up to two hours. Certification is pending.
A General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper crashed into Lake Ontario November 13 after a satellite link to the drone failed. The Reaper was being operated by the 174th Attack Wing from Wheeler Sack Army Airfield at Fort Drum, N.Y., in military controlled airspace above 18,000 feet when control was lost. Another drone, an MQ-1B Predator, crashed at Holloman AFB New Mexico a month ago.
Cutter Aviation has embarked on a $1.75 million expansion and renovation project on its facility at New Mexico's Albuquerque International Airport (ABQ). The $250,000 modernization of its FBO terminal includes the refurnishing of the lobby, conference room and pilots' lounge areas. The FBO is home to approximately 50 airplanes, nearly half of them turbine-powered, and its 75,000 sq ft of hangar space has been filled to capacity for the past several years, according to company president Will Cutter.
Approximately 350 aviation workers, pilots and enthusiasts in New Mexico joined with elected officials and alphabet group leaders yesterday at Cutter Aviation in Albuquerque for a general aviation jobs rally hosted by the General Aviation Manufacturing Association (GAMA.)
On May 4 Boeing flew for the first time an F-16 that the company has converted for pilotless flight under the U.S. Air Force's Full-Scale Aerial Target (FSAT) program. The flight took place at Cecil Field, near Jacksonville, Florida. A Boeing test pilot took the aircraft up to 41,000 feet during the 66-minute sortie.
Eighteen years ago, Presidential candidate Ross Perot referred to "a giant sucking sound" of U.S. jobs moving south to Mexico. According to union officials in Wichita, "the air capital of the world," that sucking sound is as real today as it was in 1992, and Mexico appears to remain the destination of choice.
The trend of airports adding solar power systems is growing in the southwest U.S., which sees more sunny days each year than other parts of the country. Sacred Power of Albuquerque, N.M., installed a 10-kilowatt solar photovoltaic array at White Sands Regional Airport in Alamogordo last November.
Congressional aviation committee and subcommittee leaders from both sides of the political aisle held onto their seats Tuesday, but some long-time friends of general aviation fell by the wayside. With 99 percent of the vote tallied by late afternoon yesterday, Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), ranking Republican on the Senate Transportation Committee, appeared to have retained his seat.

The breakfast was terrible. The internet connection was nonexistent. The cable in our room stopped working the second day we were there. All in all it was the worst hotel our family has ever stayed at.I usually never leave reviews on hotels, but this one needs to be shared. I read all of the reviews on this hotel before booking and it seemed that everyone raved about it. I just don't have anything good to say about our experience here. The hotel room had a very musty odor and the beds were lumpy. The lighting was very dull, felt like we were staying at the bates motel. I would definitely not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The staff was less than friendly, lets leave it at that.I loved the folder of guests sketches and drawings at the check in area. My husband is an artist, and I hope to find his work in that folder at our next visit!

All was excellent except there was no reservation for me. I thought my confirmation from priceline.com would reserve the room for me, but it did not. the check-in clerk suggested I review my credit card statement for duplicate charges. will do!
there was not a single negative about this hotel.Our room was very nice, exceptionally clean, good water pressure, and the most comfortable pillows I have ever slept on. I even noted the brand name so I could research buying some for my home. The complimentary breakfast was excellent, the dining hall very spacious and bright.

Back from Lille - a lovely small city but not enough to do for four days! Didn't get round to the les3brasseurs as there were so many places to eat and drink on our doorstep. Had a few Maredsous blonde beers whch were good, not so keen on Pelforth but okay. There didn't seem to be a big choice of beers on tap but loads of bottled beers which I don't like to drink when I'm out as I can have those cheaper at home! But all in pretty good. I particularly like the culture there of being able to have a beer at times if you drank here would mark you out as likely to be an alcoholic!
As for vegetarian food - no, I still don't think there's much change! Still, I had plenty of good food to absorb the beer with!
Oh no - just found out I've been cheated - Maredsous is Belgian!! I wanted French beer!!!
Hi Muttley - I was getting very tight right glutes and hip flexor with pain down the thigh and, ahem, right "lad" pain. Thought I had just strained something to start with but found a tender area on my lower spine. I used a foam roller to massage out the back and all but the obvious (!) painful areas and after a few days it was much better and all gone after a couple of weeks. Obviously this may not work for you but a foam roller if you haven't got one already is a really useful bit of kit.
That's encouraging - our last visits were to Paris and she didn't starve but any questioning revealed a basic non-understanding of vegetarianism. Did go to a very good Lebanese restaurant and that was fine. I've been trying to cure her of the affliction with the wonderful aromas of bacon and roast chicken for years but she's not cracked yet!
Cheers fat buddha, we're going on the Eurostar but the Lille branch looks very close to where we are staying so we'll probably give that a go. Now all we have to do is find veggie food for my OH! They don't generally get the principal of it in France..
Cheers Phil!

Google I/O was pretty amazing this year, right? We got the deets on Material design, a preview version of Android L, the formal release of Android Wear, the first manifestations of Android TV and Android Auto, and plenty of other bits and pieces. However, all of that content and all of those developer sessions can take forever to absorb, and professional developers just don't have time for that. Now that all of the videos have been posted, I've combed through every last one to narrow the list down to just the sessions that absolutely can't be missed.
Google Play Services is that app on your phone that doesn't look like it does anything, but actually does a lot of things. This is how Google rolls out new services and features to the core of Android sans OS updates. Today we've got the details on Play Services v5.0. This covers some of the features Google announced in the I/O keynote and a few smaller ones as well.
There should be no doubt, Google is getting ready to make a lot of announcements at I/O. If we've learned anything from past experiences, Google starts packing its apps full of surprises in the weeks leading up to the big show. The latest update to Play Services started rolling out yesterday and it has grown by a whopping 4 MB, almost 30% larger than the previous version. There's obviously a lot of stuff to look at, so let's just jump right in.
Google's previously announced enhancement to the Verify Apps framework is rolling out to users now, according to the official Android blog. Your device already has the standard Verify Apps system built-in that scans at the time of installation, but the new version will be watching all the time for suspicious activity.
Verify Apps compares each app you install with known malware signatures, but there's always a possibility you are downloading a form of malware that hasn't been identified yet.
An update to Google Play Services is now being released to devices worldwide. This release will be more of interest to developers than end users, but there is actually quite a lot here. In addition to some updates to Play Games services and the Drive API, Google has brought Analytics, Tag Manger, and a new Address API into the fold as well.
Google Play Games
The big story here is the addition of game gifts.
Android malware isn't as big of a concern as some mainstream media reports would have you believe, but it is enough of an issue that Google started beefing up its security a few years ago. There's the "Bouncer" server-side scanning that checks apps before they go live, and your device runs app verification as new packages are installed. Now Google is about to patch a hole in the local app scanning by making it run continuously.
The recent release of Google Play Services 4.2 brought with it some exciting additions like the official Cast API and significantly improved support for Google Drive. One of the lesser publicized additions is the official launch of GoogleApiClient, a new component intended to simplify setting up and managing connections to Google's assorted API endpoints. Additionally, there is now support for queuing up read-only queries and a choice of executing calls synchronously or asynchronously.
The Google Cast SDK is only just escaping its confines as a developer preview, so it's not surprising to see a few bugs turning up in some odd places. A couple of simple, but potentially telling glitches started appearing after Google Play Services 4.2 began rolling out a few days ago. This latest update is causing the list of Cast targets to fill with incompatible DLNA-enabled devices and duplicate Chromecasts.
Sometimes relatively insignificant software bugs come together in what can only be described as a perfect storm, wreaking havoc and leaving the victims without recourse. Only a few days after the KitKat announcement, complaints of some rather odd behavior on Nexus devices (mostly Nexus 4s) running Android 4.3 started popping up around XDA, the Google Product Forum, and the AOSP Issue Tracker. People were waking up to find alarms failing to go off and most of their apps crashing instantly.
If you're noticing some fishy battery behavior today, and it looks like Google Play Services is the culprit, you aren't alone. Throughout the day, users have been reporting extraordinary battery use by the usually innocuous services app, accounting for up to 50% of battery usage. It would seem that, for reasons unknown, Play Services is keeping users' devices awake for incredible lengths of time. Some users report that location is disabled on their devices, ruling that out as a suspect for the increased battery drain.

Plastics pricing: What a way to start the New Year, with PS and PE prices up
Published: January 10th, 2011
Just check the current poll at Plasticstoday.com and you can see that plastics pricing is near the top of processors' concerns, along with pricing pressure from customers -and that second concern often stems from customers' reluctance to pick up the tab for increases in plastics prices. Maybe the worries are justified, based on the first week of 2011, which saw prices increase for two of the largest volume plastics.

Speed a factor in fatal Mansfield crash
Police say speed was a contributory factor in a fatal crash last night in Mansfield Woodhouse, which resulted in the death of three people.
The crash happened on Debdale Lane at around 9.45pm, involving a BMW, a motorcycle and a pick-up.
Detective Sergeant James Greely, investigating the crash, said the force are at the early stages of the investigation, but they do know speed played a part in the crash.
The officer also said that the driver and the front passenger in the BMW, and the motorcyclist died following the crash, with two back-seat passengers in the BMW, and the Ford Ranger pick-up driver were seriously injured.
