Great product. Assembly was easy. I would prefer more exercises shown that utilize the extra accessories. The light band feels like it might break but I know it won't. The small bag could be bigger.

Of the project's $6 million cost, Batesville raised over $3 million of its $3.5 million commitment with Ivy Tech contributing the rest. The funding came from the city, BCSC, John A. Hillenbrand Foundation, local businesses, organizations and individuals.
Aug. 20 was "an exciting day in Batesville High School history," pointed out principal Andy Allen. For the first time, 85 students began taking 122 dual enrollment classes at the larger Ivy Tech campus. As excited as the students must have been, parents had to be equally ecstatic. Their children were taking college courses – with zero tuition costs. Just this past semester parents collectively saved $109,800 (if those credit hours were taken at Indiana University-Bloomington).
3. Three of six South Ripley High School students who had been attending a Future Farmers of America daylong event at Hopewell Baptist Church and were involved in a March 7 two-vehicle crash were killed, according to the Indiana State Police.
A 1999 Dodge Ram 3500 driven by Thomas Crawford, 17, Dillsboro, was eastbound on Fairgrounds Road and a 1996 Ford F-250 pickup driven by Timothy Bowman, 17, Osgood, was northbound on County Road 850 West, reported Master Trooper Ben Bastin. As they approached the four-way stop intersection, "preliminary reconstruction findings indicated both vehicles disregarded the stop signs and the Dodge struck the F-250 broadside," according to the release.
On April 12, the ISP public information officer reported, "There is nothing to indicate they (the two truck drivers) were racing .... At the time of impact, the speed of the Dodge was 75-81 mph and the Ford was going 26-28 mph ..."
Crawford admitted to the delinquent acts of reckless homicide and reckless driving May 16, according to The Herald-Tribune. About 50 people, including victims' family members, filled the courtroom as Ripley Circuit Court Judge Carl Taul read the disposition that was agreed upon by the juvenile, his parents and attorney and the prosecutor. The teen was placed in a secure juvenile detention facility for 120 days with 30 days suspended. He must admit to his traffic infraction filed in Versailles Town Court and pay fines and fees associated with the ticket. Crawford was placed on reporting probation until age 21.

"He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything." –Proverb
We all go through phases when we feel hopeless. When everything gets overwhelming. Your bills, your responsibilities, your relationships, the dreams you put on hold—sometimes it all seems like too much.
In those moments the last thing you want to hear is that you're lucky you can still walk or use all your senses. Those are things we all take for granted. Things that just are.
Except none of them are a given. The legs that allow you to practice yoga may one day be strained, sprained, broken, or even paralyzed. The hands and wrists that allow you to write may one day have carpel tunnel. The body that never seems strong or lean enough may one day be incapacitated in ways you can't even fathom.
If you have your health, you have the freedom to change a lot of the things that dissatisfy you in life. You just have to take responsibility for doing it.
If you have the physical and mental capacity, odds are your biggest restrictions are your own limiting thoughts about what's possible for you.
Hope is the belief that tomorrow could be better. Wisdom is realizing you have to make it better yourself. How can you use your capabilities to create new possibilities for today and tomorrow?

More than 100 people from

serving people in the state who qualify for Peachcare for Kids, and Medicaid.
"We sponsor breakfasts
across the state to thank many of the community-based organizations that we
work with for their work in the community," says Chief Medical Officer Dr.
William Alexander. "We believe very strongly that community-based organizations
helping to uplift the community improve health outcomes, and so we're delighted
to support them and recognize them during these breakfasts."

Brazilian cuisine is unique and Brazil recipes reflect the many different cultures that have shaped the country over the years. From the indigenous Amerindians to the colonising Portuguese and the African slaves they brought with them, each culture has added its own techniques and ingredients, with more recent arrivals such as Syrians, Lebanese and Japanese now making their own unmistakeable contributions.
Like many Latin American cuisines, it can be maddeningly hard to get authentic Brazilian food in the UK, so here at the Real Brazil, we thought we'd provide you with some Brazil recipes for a slap-up authentic Brazilian meal, either so you can get ready for what's in store for you on your visit there, or to reminisce over some tasty memories once you've returned. Or why not invite your friends round and show them your favourite Brazil recipes.
These Brazil recipes won't take long to prepare or cook and there aren't any ingredientes which you'll have huge difficulty sourcing from a decent supermarket, with the possible exception of the cachaça cane spirit for the caipirinha, and even this can be found in many larger supermarkets and specialist shops or online.
The delicious Pao de Queijo are Brazilian cheese dumplings made with tapioca flour. They're puffy and chewy, like Japanese mocha, and perfect finger food, great for dipping! This Pao de Queijo recipe is really simple and will not take you long at all. Once made, the batter will keep in the fridge for up to a week so if you fancy some more, you'll have some at hand. This Pao de Queijo recipe is also great for coeliacs as tapioca flour is gluten-free.
Total Prep time: 5 minutes / Cooking time: 15 minutes
Originating in the south-east of Brazil, Moqueca Capixaba is a flavoursome fish stew made with lots of vegetables, spiced well and garnished with fresh coriander. Moqueca Capixaba can be found all over Brazil but the recipe here is for the north-eastern Moqueca Bahiana variation, made with coconut milk and using white fish. Serve this Brazil recipe with boiled rice and/or crusty bread.
Total Prep time: 20 Minutes / Cooking time: 40 minutes
Docinhos (sweets) are a great informal and sociable way to end your Brazilian meal. This is also a really nice easy recipe! In Brazil, these sweet, truffle-like treats are often eaten at weddings, birthdays and other special occasions but we reckon that they suit every occasion. We thought we'd provide you with a quick Brazil recipe so you can lay on a platter of docinhos to end your Brazilian feast.
Total Prep time: 5 minutes / Cooking time: 5 minutes
This classic Brazilian cocktail is made from Brazil's national liquor, Cachaça, and no Brazilian dinner party is complete without it. Cachaça is made from sugar cane which is distilled in oak or indigenous-wood barrels for one to twelve years. Fans of the drink believe it will rival the most coveted whiskies and cognacs one day. However, it could do with a bit more exposure before it really takes off and this would seem unlikely anytime soon as, like the Danes, the Brazilians hate to see it leave, with only 1% of the yearly production of 2 billion litres of the stuff ever leaving Brazil.

Located in the Peruvian Andes. Amazing culture demostrating …
New Seven Wonders of the World was a project that attempted to update the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World concept with a modern list of wonders. A popularity poll was led by Canadian-Swiss Bernard Weber[1] and organized by the Swiss-based, government-controlled New7Wonders Foundation,[2] with winners announced on July 7, 2007 in Lisbon, Portugal.[3]
The theme song of the contest was written by Tony (a/k/a Taloch) Jameson of the UK medieval folk/rock band, The Dolmen. The band performed the song live at the Lisbon ceremonies.[4]
The New7Wonders Foundation claimed that more than 100 million votes were cast through the Internet or by telephone. Nothing prevented multiple votes, so the poll was considered "decidedly unscientific".[5] According to John Zogby, founder and current President/CEO of the Washington-based polling organization Zogby International, New7Wonders Foundation drove "the largest poll on record".[3]
The program drew a wide range of official reaction. Some countries touted their finalist and tried to get more votes cast for it, while others downplayed or criticized the contest.[3][5][3] After supporting the New7Wonders Foundation at the beginning of the campaign, by providing advice on nominee selection, The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) distanced itself from the undertaking in 2007.[6][7] Many monuments were supported by dedicated websites or strong placements on national websites. National figures and celebrities promoted the New7Wonders campaign in many countries.[8] New7Wonders stated that it saw its goal of global dialogue and cultural exchange as having been achieved, thanks to the sheer number of votes cast and the geographical and cultural diversity of the voters registered.[9]
The New7Wonders Foundation, established in 2001, relied on private donations and the sale of broadcast rights and received no public funding or taxpayers' money.[9] After the final announcement, New7Wonders said it didn't earn anything from the exercise and barely recovered its investment.[10][11]
In 2007 the foundation launched a similar contest, called New7Wonders of Nature, with nominees solicited through December 31, 2008. The 21 finalists will then be the subject of voting until the summer of 2010.

The Mammoth Potato Hoax of Loveland, Colorado, 1894—Joseph B. Swan was a proud potato farmer who claimed to have grown a potato that was 13 pounds and 8 ounces. W.L. Thorndyke, editor of the Loveland Reporter, came up with an idea to help Swan promote his potatoes at an 1894 street fair. They created this trick photograph of a huge potato. This may have become the first viral fake photograph, though it was soon declared to be fraudulent. (via)

It means not offering up your daughter in exchange for a rapist not raping your wife.
Immigration is a hill worth dying on, because it means the end of the country as we know it. If we lose this and they pass amnesty, it is all over. The end. Finished.
They always quote the 12 million illegals number. Bet that is a red herring, because they are sending their money back to their home countries TO THEIR FAMILIES!!!!!! And when they are legal, they won't have to do that anymore, because THEIR FAMILIES WILL COME HERE!!!!!!!
Tell me how another Republican/Conservative EVER wins Florida again after all the illegals are legalized here?
I agree with Libertarians on spending policy, and I agree in shrinking the size of gov't.
But on drug legalization, abortion, gay marriage, sorry, not going to agree with you.
But when it comes to foreign policy, you guys are flat out nuts!!
Just not living in the modern world....still think it's 1776.
It's suicide to sit back and let your enemies gather strength while you stick your head in the sand.
To paraphrase Patton the job of the soldier is not to die for your country but make the other guy die for his
Some things we must always oppose but there are times to bend and make bad things better also
And the perceived success or failure of those policies and programs tends to determine how the parties' candidates, even those who don't support many of them, do at the polls.
This has been especially true in the past two decades, in which fewer Americans have been splitting their tickets or changing their minds from election to election than was the case from the 1950s to the 1980s.
For years, white Southerners voted Republican or for a third-party candidate in presidential elections and...

TMZ has obtained a complete copy of the program handed out during Whitney Houston's funeral today in Newark, NJ.
The program contains dozens of photos of Whitney -- from when she was a baby, through her chart-topping days and beyond.
Kevin Costner, Clive Davis, Alicia Keys and Stevie Wonder were among those that spoke and sung during the service.
As TMZ previously reported, Bobby Brown showed up at the church, but was turned away because he wasn't allowed to bring his nine-person entourage into the church with him.
she was a great woman. i love her because she will stay in our minds forever just like michael jackson let her REST IN PEACE
@#15stfu u w.a.s.p.
Bobby's invite said himself plus two. Not himself plus nine, no matter who he brought. He should have followed the rules. And, no...an ex-spouse does NOT sit with the deceased's family, not even when his ADULT child is sitting with them. They're HER family...not his. Oh, and by the way, all this love for Whitney showed up on e-bay. When I last checked her funeral program was being sold and the price was up to $1300!
If I remember correctly, Bobby Brown's other kids were born after Bobbi Kristina. That would make them NO relation to Whitney. And, no...an ex-spouse does NOT sit with the deceased's family, not even when his ADULT child is sitting with them. They're HER family...not his. Oh, and by the way, all this love for Whitney showed up on e-bay. When I last checked her funeral program was being sold and the price was up to $1300!
all her problems started when she married bobby brown,he was no good for her,so as far has her drug problem you would have to blame it to bobby brown for that,she just hookup with the wrong guy,so sad
GOD gives us several path to take, he allows you to make the right choice for yourself, the choices could give you a long life or shorten your life and Whitney Houston chosen a different path. Look at all the things she done that was wrong, even the marriage to a thug whose career was in a downward spire and he thought if he marries a winner like Whitney Houston it would help his career. In her life with Bobby Brown he introduce to her DRUGS, ALCOHOL, and the night life. Remember Whitey Houston was a strong church going young lady and was in the choir. Now I'm not saying all church going people are innocent because I seen demons in church pretending to be "Christians" but Whitney Houston was indeed a good girl and she obeyed her mother and aunt Deon. After looking at a few new web pages I seen Bobbi Kristina Houston-Brown was headed down the same road as her mother at a much younger age "18." Bobby Brown you are poison. RIP Whitney Houston, GOD bless the Houston family and protect Kristina.
I blame Bobby Brown for all of this because Whitney Houston came from a first class family, she was innocent, church going young lady "not saying all church going people are innocent ok" but she was very sweet and did everything her mother and aunt told her to do and became famous before she met Bobby Brown. Bobby Brown introduce drugs, alcohol, and the night life to her which was the life she lived to her death. Now I seen their daughter "Bobbi Kristina Houston-Brown" is on the same path as her mother "Whitney Houston."
It was nice that bobby showed some respect on Cissy's wishes-I'm sure he had made mistakes,we all have-if it wasn't for the drugs-maybe things could have been different,better-Sad to see Hhitney not being around anymore-now she can rest in peace.
śpiewa teraz Aniołom
We need to stop this it him, its her, it them, it we. Whitney is dead We all grieve in different ways and some grief takes longer to deal with. WHATS DONE HAS BEEN DONE. As I stated earlier, I pray that the family of Whitney allow Bobby time with his daughter. Can't nothing change the fact that she Bobbi Christina is HIS daughter. If they deprive her now she will only run to him later & I can only pray that it won't be too late for the both of them. He loved Whitney and inspite of what she said ...She still Loved him. They just has a crazy relationship that they only understood
Why are people so angry! Now that is so sad!
This is for the person who posted the disgusting poem of whitney and her child. First, whatever Whitney has done in this life she has paid. Remember, the wages of sin is death!!! After her death, there is nothing (negative) left to say. I truly feel sorry for you, assuming that you do not know better (how else would you post that ridiculous comment). As for her daughter, she is not responsible for what she has been exposed through her parents and the pressures of the media, not to mention, she has lost her MOTHER, remember she is only (18), lets pray that she find peace through all of this.
Secondly, To adress the person that posted the comment about the flag (half mass). I understand the origin of the flag, however, rather you agree or not, due to the representation of someone giving up their lives for the sake of others, I believe Whitney did JUST that! Through her love and compassion of music, she continued her journey in spite of all the pressures of the industry, which subjected most celebrities like whitney, michael jackson, elvis presley, marilyn monroe, etc... (who also deserves the same) to a life of drugs and alcohol. These celebrities aforementioned and others like them, did not have these additions prior to their fame and fortume, most of them were innnocent young kids and the media and their fans reep the benefits in a positive manner. It inspired them mentally, or encourage to live their dreams, to think that they are not worthy because they fail to the pressures of the media and their fans does not expelled the gift they have given to others, GOD bless their souls!!!
Tyler Perry put it best..'What then say you to these things? That if God be for you, who can be against you? So say whatever you want. God was for her. You crack joke about her being a crack head..who are you to judge? and remember You reap what you sow.

Football Receives Coveted Lambert Award
The Annual Eastern College Athletic Conference Football Awards Banquet took place Thursday, March 27, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., with the nationally-ranked St. John Fisher College squad being awarded the Lambert Meadowlands Football Award Winner for Division III as the top team in the East.
The Cardinals were ranked No. 1 in the final regular season Lambert Poll for the second time in school history (2006) after compiling a 10-3 record which ended with a quarterfinal loss in the NCAA Division III Football Championship to the University of Mary-Hardin Baylor. Fisher thwarted No. 9 John Carroll University 25-16 in the opening round followed by a 27-6 victory over No. 8 Hobart College in the second round to advance to the Elite 8 for the fourth time in program history.
The awards banquet honored both teams and individuals for their on-field performances during the 2013 season. Among the team award winners were the Penn State Nittany Lions who were tabbed the Division I Lambert Football Award Winner for their performance in 2013. Attendees were also treated to a speech from Guest of Honor Kevin Gilbride, who recently retired from the NFL after years of being an offensive coordinator.
Established in 1936 as the Lambert Trophy to recognize supremacy in Eastern college football, the award has since grown to recognize the best team in the East in the Bowl Subdivision. In 1957, the Lambert Cup was created to recognize non-Division I-A teams, and in 1966 a Division III award was added. In 1983, the Lambert family decided the Meadowlands Sports Complex would be the best organization with a sincere and involved interest in college athletics to sponsor and manage the award, and since that time, the awards have been known as the Lambert Meadowlands Awards.
To be eligible for the Lambert Meadowlands Award, a school must be located in the East or play at least half of its schedule against eligible Lambert teams. The territory includes New York, New Jersey, New England and Pennsylvania, while teams in the bordering states of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia and the District of Columbia qualify if at least half of their schedule features eligible teams. Teams in Eastern-based football conferences, regardless of location, qualify if at least half their schedule is against Lambert eligible teams.

1. "Lincoln"
This is Steven Spielberg's "Citizen Kane," with its reliance on dialogue and performance and theatrical mise en scene. It explores Lincoln from the inside out and Daniel Day-Lewis gives a performance for the ages.
2. "Zero Dark Thirty"
Kathryn Bigelow never lets up on the intensity in which pre and post 9/11 rules of espionage come into conflict in the hunt for bin Laden. And Jessica Chastain's unrelenting CIA analyst fittingly represents our need for retribution and catharsis.
3. "Skyfall"
James Bond loses his mojo and gains an extended family at MI6 in this rite of passage. And Daniel Craig adds some of the mystique back to 007 after demystifying him. What a lovely 50th anniversary present from Sam Mendes.
4. "Life of Pi"
Ang Lee presents the "2001: A Space Odyssey" of 3-D movies: spiritually uplifting with the most creative use of dimensional space yet. And the CG Bengal tiger, Richard Parker, holds his own with Suraj Sharma's indefatigable Pi.
5. "Amour"
Michael Haneke dispenses with the usual visceral game playing to give us a great end-of-life, classical love story. Jean-Louis Trintignant and Emanuelle Riva are divine, bringing back memories of their earlier roles in "A Man and A Woman" and "Hiroshima Mon Amour."
6. "Silver Linings Playbook"
Leave it to David O. Russell to deliver a brilliant rom-com that combines "Goodfellas with "It's a Wonderful Life," with Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence finding the primal route to love.
7. "Anna Karenina"
What's old is new again in Joe Wright's inspired theatrical adaptation of the Tolstoy classic. The Russian aristocracy crumbles in a derelict theater, with Keira Knightley as enchanting as ever and Jude Law surprisingly sympathetic.
8. "The Master"
A post-World War II allegory from Paul Thomas Anderson about power, manipulation, and human nature that's tailor-made for our times. The volatile master/servant relationship between Philip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix is spellbinding and the 70mm film presentation brings clarity to every texture.
9. "Cloud Atlas"
The ultimate time travel movie spanning 500 years of connecting and reconnecting with the acting ensemble changing roles became the most polarizing movie of the year. Yet the Wachowskis and Tom Tykwer are to be commended for aiming for the stars with such passion and beauty.
10. "Les Miserables"
Tom Hooper delivers the celebrated Victor Hugo-adapted musical at a fever pitch and like the long-suffering Jean Valjean, we, too, feel as though we've gone to hell and back. It's intimate and gritty and digs deeper into Hugo. And Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway find transcendence in their roles.

Great lists! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought TDKR has received undeserved praise.

AMOUR for me was the best film this year. Hands down.
Simon Paiva | December 26, 2012 7:06 PM
Ok, I just need to say something here. I've been trough all the lists and I see that The Hobbit was not mentioned in any of them, not even as an " honorable mention", and I find that to be quite unnaceptable. Anyone with knowledge of Tolkien's book knew months prior to seing the film, that it was not going to be like LOTR, it's a different story, different aproach at times. But I didn't think the movie was dissapointing. It's Peter Jackson's return to Middle Earth after nine years, that alone for me made the movie the biggest cinematic event of the year. And it didnt made it into any of these lists? and movies like: Hunger Games, Premium Rush and Cabin in the Woods did? Seriously???

Really good specially Top5
JAB | December 19, 2012 8:23 PM
After revisiting "The Dark Knight Rises" & getting some distance from it on a 32" Blu-Ray TV screen after having 1st catching it on IMAX this summer, I think this film maybe even better than "The Dark Knight" & will go down as the most under-appreciated movie in an "awards season" since Michael Mann's crime classic "Heat". How long is Christopher Nolan going to have to wait for his Oscar?
(I loved "Lincoln" & "Argo" & really enjoyed "John Carter" & "Flight". Haven't seen "Zero..." yet, but I'm big fan of Kathryn Bigelow.)

eurocheese | December 15, 2012 9:13 PM
Love all the lists and loved hearing Anne's comments on the podcast. It's been such a wonderful year for movies. In other years I've ended up passionately defending the one or two I really like, but this year there is so much to love. I'm hoping Jan/Feb just serve as catch up time to watch all the great films we had in 2012. We need more years where a slew of great directors make top tier work and we all walk away liking them more!
John | December 15, 2012 6:34 PM
I think I like Jacob Combs list best. No critic would probably put it in their top 10 list for the year, but I had a hell of a good time watching the Avengers. A few good movies (like the Master and Lincoln) I still haven't gotten around to seeing yet.
brian fantana | December 14, 2012 11:14 PM
so BEASTS is a better film than either DARK KNIGHT RISES or SKYFALL - seriously??? the absence of serious film criticism in this country is stunning (but then again not surprising given this blogger's history)

JA - IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering
The author surveys key requirements and specific design techniques for artificial intelligence (AI) applications in the financial services industry. After discussing some of the fundamental challenges which the financial services industry presents for decision technology, the motivations for the use of AI are related to a number of typical applications, which are broadly categorized into suitable development and delivery environments and generic domain utilities required from shells or customized systems for that industry. Markets and trades are then shown to be well described in terms of knowledge representation and data structures, by object-oriented features embedded into logic programming environments. Conflict resolution strategies, preference aggregation and revealed beliefs are studied. A formal analysis of investment decision criteria is given. An example from currency risk management exemplifies this area. Intelligent information screens are presented to stress the need for knowledge-based techniques in financial information retrieval.

Getting Everything We Wanted (For A Year)
When I first met Alf way back in '99, he caught my attention with his honesty, which included revealing that he loved self-help books and wasn't ashamed of it. Some of you might remember that he's guest starred on this blog with a post about his favourite self-help titles. Lately he's been reading a book called The Attractor Factor, which is yet another book about getting what you want by putting your mind to it. He's not crazy about the book but we had a chat this afternoon about music and our band days, and we recalled how we had one awesome year where we got everything we wanted, seemingly just by wanting it.
By the way, the quote (pictured above) about us all being in different bands isn't exactly true–we were fairly new to the music world, but we were also smart enough to make ourselves seem more experienced than we were. In truth, some of us had been playing together since '04 or '05. At the time, Alf's cousin Serene fronted the band as our singer and it was enough for us just to be part of a band. Serene and I got silly and wore our hair in pigtails because that was what some indie rocker girls were doing back then, and Alf and I would feel important and liberated dragging our guitars to jam studios every week to play our favourite songs. In reality it was a mismatch because we were all novice musicians save for Alf, and we all liked different music ranging from r&b to classic rock and indie. Also, I never wanted to perform but everyone else did. The others said to me, what's the point of having a band if you don't play for anyone? I couldn't argue with that, so I went along with the plan and the first gig we played was at Boys Town during a fun fair, where the front row was taken up by our family members and the rest of the audience were randoms looking for shelter or a seat. But no matter, it was still a milestone moment.
For our first gig, we'd called ourselves The Exploding Hearts but on googling the name later, we discovered there was already a band with the same name, and worse, they'd all been killed in a car crash! I was a big Buffy The Vampire Slayer fan back then (the TV series, not the movie) and I had this Buffy book with an episode index, so we scanned it to get another name, Never Kill A Boy On The First Date. We played a few park gigs with that name, and it was such a mouthful that we eventually shortened it to The Daters. It was a trend at the time to go without a bassist and we managed without one in the beginning, but we later added a bassist to our line-up, my friend and ex-schoolmate Greg. We played a couple more gigs as a band of five. And we changed our name to The OKs–shorter, snappier, and cooler. Or so we hoped.
One goal for the band was to write our own songs, but back then I had no confidence in my creative vision. Alf on the other hand was so creative that he'd come up with 20 different versions of a single song, and we'd get tired of listening to his ideas by version three. Serene the singer wrote lyrics and I attempted to write lyrics, but neither of us could tie our words down to a tune and suggest how the instruments should be played, so there was plenty of to-ing and fro-ing and things did get tense. I'm sure we took turns to privately wonder what the trouble was all for. With Layla due in mid-06, we decided to take a break. There was a final gig we were supposed to play–my gynaecologist loves to tell people that one of his patients was still strapping on a guitar in trimester 3. It was at a park just across The Esplanade and we joked that we were practically gigging at The Esplanade, which meant we'd come a long way from that first funfair performance! It wasn't to be though–it rained and the gig was cancelled. We hid out in a nearby cafe, had our iced drinks, and left our rock 'n' roll dreams to fizzle. Somehow this seemed like a fitting finale; our expectations were low at that point anyway.
In '07, Alf and I felt cloistered in our roles as new parents and we were both dying to escape the home to do something different. We talked about starting up the band again but this time, our singer declined. By chance, our drummer Lennat found someone else wiling to give singing a shot, so we called our bassist Greg and met Shirley our new singer in a jam studio for the first time to play this song. After the session ended, we thought hey, this could work!
In '08, our "new" band, now named Midnight Marvel, did everything we'd never done before and never expected to do. We recorded our first original song; we were featured on a charity compilation; we auditioned and made it to perform at the Baybeats festival at The Esplanade; we played pub, club, and studio gigs to warm up for the big show; and we did web, radio and print interviews and got press mentions. We shot a music video too, although that was pretty embarrassing and I've never watched it. The following year, one of our songs made it to a National Day list of local songs "that defined the nation" on Today. Not too shabby!
So, what was different about the band in '08 that helped it to chalk up its tiny successes? Alf and I had a few ideas and I'd like to share them here, just for fun:
#1 We changed our mentality from "Why try?" to "Why not?" Shortly after that positive first session, we became a foursome again with Alf taking over on bass. At the time, our band was mangling cover songs due to lack of practice and still failing to cobble together an original song–there was a petty argument over what we could achieve together and whether we should work towards trying out for the country's only indie rock fest (i.e. Baybeats), which required decent musicianship and 30 minutes worth of original tracks. Our bassist told us politely to get real, but I wasn't in the mood for reality and invited him to leave. Strangely, that development energized the rest of us and gave us a new sense of urgency and self-belief that wasn't based on anything concrete. Note: We're still friends with our bassist and he showed us the meaning of graciousness by turning up for our subsequent gigs and giving us words of encouragement. A year later, when Alf and I exited the band too, we modelled our behaviour after his.
#2 Someone took the lead. Previously our songwriting process worked like this: Someone would hand out lyrics (except Alf, he was shy), and we'd take them home and add music using Garageband and mail the ideas to our bandmates. Everyone would then chime in with suggestions or say which idea they liked best, but we were never happy with the end product and made a gazillion changes until the original idea was unrecognisable. It was pointless and demoralising. Then one day, our singer Shirley came into the studio with an idea. She had words for a song, she showed me how to play it on guitar, and the others filled in the gaps on bass and drums. It was simple but memorable and it had punch, which had been lacking in our other attempts. It was short, so we decided to play it twice. There wasn't an ending, so we made one up on the spot. We had a song, in a single session! Shirley became our official songwriter, and this was our first and probably most well-publicised track, titled "Spit It Out."
#3 The timing was right. With an original song in hand, we realised that the deadline for the year's Baybeats shortlist wasn't over yet. We had a few days to work with, and it so happened that the studio we jammed in also provided recording services. We recorded our demo in one afternoon, spent another evening taking band pictures and putting together a bio, and finally submitted our track. (I should add that my mum-in-law was a great help, covering for us with Layla.) Alf and I were very much in sync then; we wanted to try as many new things as possible because we both felt we had nothing to lose–except time. Most bands start out with members in their teens or 20s, and we could've all passed for 20-somethings or even teenagers if we tried, but we couldn't run away from the truth. Alf and I had already crossed 30 and our bandmates were getting there too. Maybe that was our version of the midlife crisis, but whatever it was, it propelled us as we survived the initial shortlist as well as our first-ever audition to score ourselves an opportunity to perform at The Esplanade.
#4 Relationships matter. Our drummer Lennat is the sort of person you'd want to high five even if you'd just met her; she's all energy and enthusiasm especially if you share her interests. She also goes out of her way to seek inspiration and connect with her heroes without caring if they're famous or not–she has some interesting mentors and friends as a result. I'd like to think we made it to Baybeats on merit alone but I suspect Lennat's connections counted for something because she knew at least one of the judges. People have always been eager to support Lennat and lift her up the way she's lifted them (she's written about it here), so it's not inconceivable that this played a part in our getting picked.
#5 Luck counts too. A good friend (who's also a local music veteran) gave us a chance to be included on one of his music compilation projects, and it was on that album that a Today journalist noticed us. He liked us enough to mention us repeatedly, interview us, and recommend us as a "must watch" act at Baybeats. And in the following year, he featured us at the tail end of this list (look for no.36). All of which was totally unexpected… and lucky!
* Update: I don't have recordings for our original songs except for one. Here's "Spit It Out." Turn it up!

Marrakesh - Day 7
... When the fire started to die, we all just laid back on the mats separating us from the soft sand beneath us and looked up at the clear sky about us. More stars than you can ever imagine covered us like a blanket and I counted 15 shooting stars from laying there for a short time.
As our eyes drew heavy, we'd remembered hearing about other volunteers sleeping outside. So me, Pav and Tess decided to drag our bedding from the tent and attempt sleeping ...
Trek day 5 and 6
... head? They were in the beer cans! (Hold on a second while I itch all over my body from the memory). Needless to say the beer cans went outside (sorry Muslims, don't care I we offend at this point) and the light was left on for the rest of the night.
Very tired this morning. Today we hit the dunes which did not disappoint. Now Most of the Sahara desert fills Algeria, but Morocco has its fare share. And honestly, its quite intimidating to think ...
1123 Breakfast with the Village Chief (Mor 365)
... he tells me with a broad smile "you are welcome in our village". A nice way to start out the day.
And after wandering around this town for a bit—which has more long, straight alleys, rather than twisted mazelike alleys of smaller villages, I exit to the main highway again. Passing by the high school, a crowd of schoolkids ask that I play from music ...
Morocco - Riding camels through the Sahara
... groups of four and each of them led one of the front camels. Camels are really quite nice animals, very docile. I want one!
Upon arrival at the camp we grouped together in a large Berber tent and enjoyed sweet green tea (which they liked to call 'Berber Whisky') and dinner. This was followed by some traditional singing and drumming around a campfire before we headed to our shared tents for the night.
The ...
Couch surfing debut
... sand.
And camels. :)
When not in the desert sleeping on carpets on
the sand under the stars, They live in houses made of mud. and usually
sleep on carpets on the flat roof of their house. Again under the
stars. We did both with them. Ie on roof and out in desert.
So, Our first couch surfing experience as guests was with bedouin tour guide 450 km south east of marrakesh morocco. Wow!

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones thinks wide receiver Dez Bryant should still adhere to a strict set of rules that Bryant agreed to before the 2012 season.
"He doesn't need to drop his guard," Jones said Tuesday at the NFL owners meetings according to ESPN Dallas. "In some respect, none of us do."
Some of the rules Bryant must adhere to include:
- A midnight curfew. If he's going to miss curfew, team officials must know in advance.
- No alcohol.
- He can't attend strip clubs and can only attend nightclubs if they are approved by the team and has a security team with him.

A Los Alamos resident is doing his part to raise funds for a school in Sarkar, Afghanistan. Bob Fuselier, a local veterinarian, is spearheading the local drive.
Even though their classes currently are held out in the open, boys and girls from Sarkar and surrounding areas of Helmand Province are now attending school for the first time in the village's history. The $20,000 raised thus far through the generosity of people from Los Alamos is about $10,000 short of the amount needed to build the 320 meter privacy wall and well for the future school.
The donated wall and well has been leveraged by Dr. Mohammed Kharoti of Green Village Schools to win a commitment from the Afghan Ministry of Education to finish the classrooms and provide the teachers and staff for the future school.
The groundbreaking was recently held as Ferhard and Wakel, two engineers from the Ministry of Education, along with Dr. Kharoti and the elders from Sarkar marked out the location of the school's privacy walls. Students played after their classes as parents and elders celebrated the day as a new beginning, one filled with the hope that is familiar to all parents: a better life for their children.

The White House inadvertently included the name of the top CIA official in Afghanistan on a list of participants in a military briefing with President Barack Obama that was distributed to reporters on Sunday, the Washington Post reported.
The newspaper said the official, identified as "Chief of Station" in Kabul, was named as being among those at a briefing with Obama during the president's trip to Bagram Air Base near the Afghan capital.
The list of names was sent by email to reporters traveling with Obama on his surprise Afghanistan visit and included in a "pool report" shared with correspondents and others not on the trip.
The Post said the White House issued a revised list deleting the CIA official's name after it recognized the mistake.
The newspaper said its White House bureau chief, Scott Wilson, who was on the trip, copied the original list from the email provided by White House press officials and included it in a report sent to a distribution list with over 6,000 recipients.
After he spotted the reference to the station chief, Wilson asked White House press officials in Afghanistan if they had intended to include that name, the Post said.
"Initially, the press office raised no objection, apparently because military officials had provided the list to distribute to news organizations," the Post added. "But senior White House officials realized the mistake and scrambled to issue an updated list without the CIA officer's name."
The newspaper said it withheld the individual's name at the request of the Obama administration, which warned he and his family could be at risk if his name were circulated.
A review of the pool reports from the trip shows that the name was taken out of an updated list sent to reporters. Reuters is also withholding the name from this article.
The Post said it was not clear if the CIA would now be forced to remove the officer from Afghanistan.
The White House declined to comment.
