The Persevering Entrepreneur
in Business
Eva was born and raised in Slovakia where she graduated from nursing school and worked for six years as a registered nurse. After a few years, Eva traveled to Libya to work on a 3 year contract. This was one of the greatest experiences of her life. She was amazed one day when a patient came to the ER with a minor cut to his finger, accompanied by 15 others, who came to look at a white nurse!
In 1986, she met her husband who arrived in Libya from Slovakia as a gynecologist. Eva endured some difficult times as Communism was collapsing and the Austrian officials demanding proof of living or face deportation back home. Her final emigration was bitter sweet, her mother died in April 1990 from breast cancer and though only a few hundred kilometers away, she could not return home to be with her in her final days (she was 54 years old). Eva left for Canada alone in August of the same year, as her fiance was not accepted for sponsorship.
Eva arrived in Canada and was picked up from the airport by government sponsorship officials. She did not speak a word of English nor did she understand a word spoken to her. Within a year of her arrival to Canada, she withdrew from the sponsorship program, paid back her government sponsorship, moved to a bigger apartment and celebrated her fiance joining her in Canada. They were married later that year and moved to Toronto.
In 1995, Eva went back to school and earned her RN license in Canada. Eva and business partner Marion, launched Thornbrook Home Care, a private home care company for the elderly. In 2009, Eva launched BoomertoBoomer Online, providing family caregivers support and advice. In 2011, Eva opened a second company, Thistlecreek Health Care, she currently manages the administration in both companies.

She is currently in transition from nursing full-time to working full-time from home using social media, her blog, and her smart phone.

Principal recognized for tweets
Queen's Principal Daniel Woolf's tweets have been singled out by an American youth leadership organization.
Dr. Woolf has been named Educator of the Week by Lead America. Lead America's Twitter-based announcement says "Educator of the week: @QueensPrincipal, Principal and Vice-Chancellor of Queen's University AND active Tweeter."
He was nominated by Film and Media professor Sidney Eve Matrix, who is a leading expert in social media and society.
"Education tech leaders are few and far between and this is recognition for his continued investment in the channel. He's truly out in front," says Professor Matrix.
"He's being recognized as an innovator and early adopter willing to take a chance on social media communication channels to increase his accessibility and the transparency of his office for various publics including students, parents, employees at Queens, and alumni around the world. His success in this initiative will be imitated by other educational leaders."
Principal Woolf has been using Twitter since he arrived on campus last fall to give people a window into the life of a university principal and what's happening at Queen's.
He currently has 700 followers, and the number has been steadily growing.
"I like the twitter framework-140 characters forces you to be concise," says the Principal. "And it means I can tweet frequently, between meetings. I've had some great conversations via twitter and even made a few new e-friends."

CATEGORIES Action, Animation, Comedy, Family Films, Dreamworks, Movie Marketing, Movies, CinematicalLike Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Flushed Away is a Dreamworks-Aardman Animations collaboration. The difference, however, is that the latter is a CG-based film - no Wallace, no Gromit, and no endless fiddling with clay in this one. And, with the vocal talents of folks such as Hugh Jackman, Kate Winslet, Jean Reno (as Le Frog) and Ian McKellen, the cast is as prestigious as the studios involved. The movie tells the story of a posh rat (I know - rats can be posh? Just go with it.) who finds himself flushed down a toilet into the mean streets of London's sewers. Hilarity, love, and danger ensue.
Though Flushed Away doesn't come out until November, an early look at the animation and characters is now available at the official website, and it's pretty promising. The film's look is obviously very different from what we've come to expect from Aardman, but the same humor is there, as are the broad accents and class consciousness that set their work apart from most other animation. Go take a look - it's sort of cool to see the unfinished footage, and to get a sense of how the movie's coming together.

LETTING GO of the past, ACCEPTING what is and EMBRACING the future.
I have mentioned before that it has been very very weird, in fact has seriously done my head in at times, to be told I am 'inspirational' or to be held up as an example of 'a success story'. Especially when I am still working through making changes in my life! In my mind I feel like I did what I had to do – nothing more, nothing less. I have wrestled with this a lot over the last 6 months. I have come to a point of understanding and acceptance.
This afternoon I had a little surprise and a reminder of how much I have changed recently. I visited the 12WBT.com homepage and as I was not logged in the sign up page for new members came up. I did not realise this image & text about me was on the 12WBT sign up website until today!
I knew there was a link to the Success Story page with my story (and yes I 100% gave permission & I do want others to make changes as a result of seeing that I did it, I just have not been as OK with the 'inspirational' thing as I first thought!) anyways… today I got a little surprise to see my face on the sign up page when I scrolled down. Haha. But what gave me a BIGGER pleasant surprise was my positive reaction to it – or rather a lack of a NEGATIVE reaction to it.
This type of thing *used* to do my head in some days. What's interesting is NOW I can see these photos, see reference to me as 'a success story' or 'an inspiration' and not cringe, not feel uncomfortable, not feel overwhelmed, not want to reject those words or titles. Huzzah!
I decided a while ago that this unexpected outcome of "being inspirational" that came from deciding "I don't want to die!" due to being obese and ill is a good thing. If my story helps someone to turn things around and become the best version of themselves then I am very happy to OWN THAT and step up into a role of leading and inspiring others. In my professional life I am passionate and driven about helping people to improve their health – what is the difference with this situation? Only that it is very very personal and well, not about health research or evidence based medicine but rather about ME as an individual which is confronting, it's exposing. I've had to come to terms with all of that.
It's been a crazy, unplanned adventure and I have been so open… so very very open… and said YES to everything…. then have had to negotiate whatever came from that whether it be feelings within myself or reactions from others, opportunities that presented. Tonnes of good, plenty of challenges & struggles. Vast amounts learnt about myself and the world.
It might not seem like a biggie to some reading this, but it's been a big struggle for me to wrap my head around this 'inspirational' thing and I have mostly stayed quiet about it as I have not understood the hows and whys of what I felt nor how to express it. Got my head around it all now. In keeping with the open & raw nature of this blog I decided to stop waiting to 'process' this and just start putting it out there, as you've no doubt noticed in my posts and Facebook activity over the last month! More raw than ever some days. But – I am on this adventure now…. and going to keep going. I am not sure what is next but I am ever eager to see what comes next.
So this post is all part of letting go of the past and embracing the future for me. In keeping with the current theme. Feels good to LET GO, ACCEPT & EMBRACE. xx Ange

Raiders were totally disrespected on NFL LIve
The other day I saw the ESPN NFL Power Rankings going into the 2008 season. And not to my surprise Oakland was 27th. But of course NFL Live had to take their shots at the Raiders. Trey Wingo asked Darren Woodson and James Hasty if there were 5 teams worse than the Oakland Raiders, indicating their ranking of 27th. So what do they do, they make themselves look like complete idiots. They emphatically say Oakland is the worst team in the NFL, snickering and laughing as they say it. ARE THEY OUT OF THEIR MIND? Nobody in the NFL who knows what they are talking about would say Miami or Atlanta or even the sorry Chiefs are better than the Raiders. Oakland has sooo much talent on their team and look at how we ran the ball last year. None of those other teams are even close to us. Just another day of people taking their shots at the Raiders. Heres the link, as a Raider fan this truly pissed me off.

Chet Edmunds has been selected as the new baseball coach at Jurupa Valley, replacing Chuck Armenta, Edmunds confirmed.
Edmunds, 65, has been an assistant under Armenta for four years. Before that he was a pitching coach at both Patriot and Rubidoux high schools and spent one year as the pitching coach at Cal Baptist University.
"I was the first assistant Chuck hired when he took over the program," Edmunds said. "I'll put my touches on things, but we'll try to continue to keep the basics going — hard work, doing things the right way and respecting the game."
Armenta will also be an assistant football coach this season with the Jaguars.
Armenta was one of the more effective coaches in the Inland area during his four-year run. In 2008 he took over a program that went 3-22 in 2007 and led the Jaguars to a 6-13-1 record. In 2010 Armenta led the Jaguars to a 13-10 record and was named the HSGameTime.com Inland Coach of the Year. He went 57-34-1 during his tenure as the Jaguar coach, including a 23-3 record in his final season.
Armenta's successor in the 1990s coached a summer team, the Riverside Royals, guiding some of the top players in the Riverside area. Among the players he's coached on the Royals and other youth teams were Gary Adcock (Cal Baptist coach), Steve Madril (Riverside North) and Tim Kleveno (Corona Centennial).
Edmunds, who played football at Long Beach Millikan High, retired as a teacher recently. He was at West Riverside Elementary for 38 years and has a Masters degree in kinesiology.

CONSTRUCTION of the National Broadband Network will start soon in a number of outlying areas of Bendigo.
Redesdale and Mia Mia are among the next list of regions to receive fixed wireless roll-out connections.
A NBN Co spokeswoman said it would be about 12 months before residents in those areas would be able to order NBN retail services.
NBN support group iBendigo said they were still in the dark about when Bendigo would be connected.
Chair Margaret O'Rourke said she was awaiting answers from the NBN Co about the timeframe, and whether the recent strategic review affected progress.
"We would just like to understand where things are at," she said. "We're hopeful it will be the same timeline as initially announced."
A NBN Co spokesman said they will submit its Corporate Plan by mid-2014 and the plan will have an update on the roll-out timeframe across Australia.

Hooksett survey shows mixed impressions of town
"I do think (the survey) was an indication that people really like the elementary and middle school here," he said. "The schools always get good ratings here, and once ( the town) figures out the high school thing that will be helpful because people want to know where their kids are going, but people are happy with the school system here."
"New Hampshire in general frequently hits as not a good place to retire due to property taxes. Low property taxes with high income taxes is a good place to retire — the opposite is a good place to raise kids," Shankle said.
"That was one of the things that I was a little surprised about, like the fact that people seem to think that there aren't ways to get involved in town," Shankle said. "There are always things in town we need help with, so we need to do a better job marketing it or maybe even expand how they can participate."
Shankle added that he was very pleased that town employees were rated very highly by respondents for being helpful to residents.

An odd flavored brew from Fort St. Brewery. I've heard alot of talk about it, so I decided to give it a try. Pours out to a typical lager-like yellow color with a small head of white foam. No lace. Aroma of sarsaparilla, malt and some sweet sugar cane. Quite nice. Unfortunately, that's where the praise stops. Taste is unappealing, with sour grain, weak hops and watery malt mashing together to build a wreck of flavors on the palate. Something also made me think of licking an envelope when I was drinking this. Ugh. No sweetness was detected, as the smell led the drinker to beleive. Mouthfeel was fair but unimpressive. Drinkability is mediocre at best. This isn't up to par, but apparenty many are into this flavored beer as it's created quite a stir in the area.

This is a difficult brew to review, it's certainly technically beer, but somehow it really is overpowered by the flavoring (I'm assuming sassafras?) so it almost resembles an alco-pop or something similar.
Pours a crystal clear gold in color with a fizzy short lived white head. Nose is markedly root beer like along with some more typical beer notes, malt etc. Taste is heavily spiced, with a thin malt profile as a backbone. Very little bitterness to speak.
An interesting little brew for the masses, and might make a good gateway drink into better beer for some. For me however, I found it freshing and light, but not the most interesting of beverages.

Cloudy, tawny amber with a very thin white cap of fine bubbles. Some lacing. Very herbal aroma, lots of wintergreen, sarsaparilla, mint, almost like smelling toothpaste or scope. Pretty intense. Low bitterness with the same herbal character as in the aroma. There was also a bit of caramel sweetness that tied things together nicely. Light bodied with low carbonation, smooth. This was very interesting. I thought it was tasty and better than my initial expectations, but I can see this being a love it or hate it kind of beer.

On tap at Fort Street Brewery... A beer that's flavored like root beer. In other words, my favorite alcoholic drink flavored like my favorite non-alcoholic drink. I'm sold. I was expecting a darker, deep brown and almost black beer, I guess from the "root beer" essence, but it was more of a dingy, shit brown, foggy and opaque with no head. This thing certainly wont be winning any beauty pageants any time soon.
Mmmmm... root beer flavored Bottle Cap candies. Or, like those little barrel-shaped root beer hard candies. Or just root beer. It smells similar to fucking root beer. As it should. That's what they were aiming for, right? Well then I'd say they pretty much hit the mark. The finish has some grains (the only sign of anything "beer", here) and faint vanilla, but this thing is nearly 100% amped to the ceiling with root beer on the nose.
The taste isn't quite as root beer-centric as the nose, but it's still largely supreme. It's about 60% root beer flavor and 40% musty, damp grains. Yeah, the root beer is a little toned down from the nose and a bit more muted than I'd like, but it's still hitting that soda-pop sweet tooth of mine (though don't take that literally, this beer really isn't that "sweet"). Very, very, very faint citric hops mesh on the back, but make no mistake - root beer and grains are the kings of the castle.
Not much to say about the body... kind of thin, crisp, and a little wispy on the palate, but it's a sub-5% ABV beer that's spiced like root beer, what can I say? This would be a better rendition as a stout or porter, methinks, but I definitely enjoyed this. It's not something you could drink pint after pint, as things would get a bit boring and repetitive. But remember - you're getting a root beer flavored beer... it's gonna taste like root beer, dammit.

In Detroit area for a Mite Hockey Tourny and my Sis and Bro-in-Law cam to the game. My Bro found Fort Street Brewing on line and so we went to have dinner. The Doug's Turbo Sarsaparilla was a really neat beer. The colore was a tanish yellow color with a thin white head with no lace. The smell was root beer and some sweet/caramel malt, it was the best part about the beer. The taste started great but was a little to weak on the finish. The root beer is present at the start and then the taste and body weaken at the end. The mouthfeel was light in body, minumal carbonation. Overall it is a very interesting beer and worth a taste. I think the brewer hit his mark...whether is was a joke or not...This beer put the beer in root beer.

Here is a site to look at to look at who the free agents were, and who is available now: http://walterfootball.com/freeagents2012ILB.php
That said, Lets first look at who we have on our roster.
We have Quinten Groves, Aaron Curry, Travis Geothal, and Wheeler as candidates for starting MLB. Of course, i was thinking 3-4 here, so for the 4-3 base..... I don't think we have anyone behind McClain. The likely candidate would be Wheeler I guess...
Knowing that we have virtually no one there, we must look at some free agents to bring in. Here are my favorites:
DeAndre Levy: I don't know too much about Levy, but he played with Stephen Tollouch and on a defense that boasts a strong front seven. Our defense is built through our front seven as well, and he'll have better OLBs to play with as well. The highest rated available ILB on Walter football.
The next two highest rated free agents are EJ Henderson and James Farrior. Both bring a veteran presence, and solid play. WF says that both virtually have poor coverage ability, but they can both certainly have a resurgence career here, and are better then anyone we currently have.
Now the names with n descriptions..... I see one here that I would like.
Gary Brackett: Brackett was an above average Colts ILB. How is he now, I'm not sure, but at the time I was watching him he is fast, and instinctive. He was always around the tackle.
The only other one maybe could be Andra Davis. He used to be above average, but he is alright now.
Who do YOU guys like to bring in for our 4-3 ILB? Or an ILB in general. Anyone on the roster you are confident with to play the middle? What is our next step if McClain gets Jail time?

A lot of the time, we look at ways we can be outrageously creative.
We think of ways to outshine that viral video our competitor lucked out with. Or we look at the craziest competition we can offer that ties social media, mobile, print and online marketing all into one kickass promo.
Or we think of how many cool features our new product has, and then think how it'd be even cooler to multiply that number by ten and use that as just the starting point.
Even on our blogs, we look at how we can make our design the one that stands out from the rest and look like nothing you've ever seen before.
But do we need to?
Does outrageously creative lead to more sales? Is that viral video one our audience will react to? Is our multi-platform marketing based on audience demographic or internal silo thinking? Does our blog's content live up to the look and feel surrounding it?
There's no question there's a time and a place for the outrageous – but there's also a time and place for the basics, too. Usually even more so.
Be brilliant at the basics – the rest will follow.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – As many as one in 500 babies will be born with a cleft lip or cleft palate or both. Usually, the diagnosis comes during pregnancy because doctors can see it on an ultrasound, but sometimes, it's a surprise when the baby is born. Dr. Josh Demke, a surgeon at Texas Tech, says even though parents are devastated at first, but the long-term outlook for these kids today is very exciting.
"I mean that's one of the most rewarding things to me is being able to take something that may not be that big of a health defect in terms of other things that are far more severe, but it certainly is very devastating in terms of you know, we unjustly judge people by the way they look and so to be able to fix someone and make them look a lot more like their normal self I think is rewarding for me as a surgeon and for the families," said Dr. Demke.
Which is why Dr. Demke says he is planning a trip to the Philippines in the near future to provide that surgery free to patients there who have had no access to that kind of health care and we wish him well.

Energy begins with a balanced diet, with the body assimilating life-giving nutrients from the soil, processed into edible forms by plants. Because our diets are generally lacking in high-quality nutrients, we often turn to sugar and caffeine for quick energy at the expense of the health and sustained energy we could obtain from true nutrients. When the body is well nourished, a person is less likely to be depressed and more likely to have adequate energy levels. Energy28 was created to deliver supplemental natural energy from whole-food and natural sources.
Golden Chlorella is a key ingredient in Energy28. It is a unique nutrient-dense, ultra-pure, mild-tasting microalgae that provides naturally occurring amino acids, vitamins and minerals. It is a complete functional food containing 50 percent heart-healthy omega 3, 6 and 9 oils by weight and 20 percent dietary fiber. It is non-GMO and grown sustainably and locally in the USA without pesticides or herbicides.
Golden Chlorella Omega is an ultra-pure microalgae, sustainably grown in the USA without chemicals. It is a complete nutrient-dense green food: 1,000 mg contain 500 mg of heart-healthy omega 3-6-9 and 200 mg of fiber, along with naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, amino acids and micronutrients.
D-ribose (ribose) is used by all the bodys cells and is essential in energy metabolism. Our bodies make it innately, but our cells lack the ability to produce it fast enough or in sufficient quantity to effectively satisfy the loss of energy from our cells. That is why supplementing the bodys natural processes with ribose can be so beneficial. Bioenergy Ribose, the premium D-ribose we use in Energy28, is a patented supplement that is clinically proven, naturally certified and has FDA GRAS (generally recognized as safe) approval.
Fruits and vegetables are the fundamental nutritional factors in a healthy diet. Energy28 incorporates 13 organic superfruits (pomegranate, aa, goji and noni) and fruits (tart cherry, raspberry, strawberry, cranberry, banana, blueberry, apple, aronia berry and sweet cherry), plus 11 organic vegetables and sprouts (carrot, pumpkin, pea, spinach, tomato, broccoli, broccoli sprouts, onion sprouts, daikon radish, kale and alfalfa). We took extra care to use organic produce to ensure no pesticide, herbicide or fungicide residues, chemical fertilizers or genetically modified ingredients were included in our formula.
Peruvian maca is a root vegetable, shaped like a radish, that grows high in the harsh climate of the Andes Mountains in South America at elevations up to 15,000 feet. Native Peruvians have used maca for more than two millennia. A high-energy food, maca is rich in nutritional content, including amino acids and natural vitamins as well as calcium, magnesium, potassium and other minerals. We use organic maca in Energy28.
Rhodiola rosea (also known as Arctic root or golden root) has been a popular plant in traditional medical systems in Russia and Scandinavian countries for centuries, with a reputation for stimulating the nervous system, enhancing work performance and eliminating fatigue.
Each packet of Energy28 supplies 1,525 mg of nutrient-rich whole food plus D-ribose and rhodiola for energy support. It can be used every day, at work, for sports applications and anytime you need an energy boost. Sip it right from the pack or add to a water bottle. We demand a lot from our bodies. Give yours the nutrient support it needs and feel the difference.
Other Ingredients: Purified Water, Vegetable Source Glycerin, Organic Agave Nectar, Citric Acid, Natural Color, Malic Acid, Natural Flavors, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate (to preserve freshness), Organic stevia extract, Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum
Warnings: Keep out of reach of children. As with all dietary supplements, consult your healthcare professional before use. See product label for more information.

A judge issued orders of protection Thursday against a Mamaroneck woman accused of killing her 4-year-old son, who was the subject of a custody dispute.
The boy's father and his wife "have received threatening letters and they will be witnesses in this case," Assistant District Attorney Christine Hatfield said.
She did not specify who made the threats. However, defendant Manuela Maria Morgado is now prohibited from calling, texting or using any other method, including social media, to contact the couple.
The little boy's parents were never married and lived apart.
Morgado was freed from handcuffs so she could sign the orders of protection; her shoulders shook as she appeared to sob at the end of the hearing. Village Judge Christie Derrico reserved decision on the jail's request for a mental health evaluation.
Morgado was arrested Monday and charged with second-degree murder after police found her with the body of her son, Jason Reish, in their condo. No cause of death has been established, but police are considering the possibility he was suffocated.
A wake for Reish was scheduled for Thursday in Briarcliff Manor. A funeral is set for Friday.
Morgado is now represented by a public defender, Harvey Loeb, who requested an adjournment until next week. Her former attorney, Max DiFabio, said he had learned of an unspecified conflict.
The boy's father, Dr. Timothy Reish, issued a statement Wednesday through his lawyers saying: "The events which led to the untimely death of our beloved Jake are both incomprehensible and unimaginable. We will never be able to comprehend the heinous actions of Jake's mother."
The parents had a "50-50" custody arrangement but had recently gone to court in a dispute over where he should attend preschool, said Morgado's lawyer in the matter, Dennis Light.
Light said Morgado, 46, was frustrated when a judge ruled that Jason should stay at a school in Briarcliff Manor, near his father's home, rather than switch to one in Mamaroneck that she favored.
"But there was nothing that would make you think something like this would happen," the lawyer said. He said he had met Jason once and the boy was "very bubbly, full of life and energy, just a normal 4-year-old."

Image via spokeo.comThere is no doubt we as a fanbase have mixed emotions on Todd Haley because he is seen as the big change we made over the offseason while our coaching favorite dear ole dad put the D at the top of the charts again. What we fail to look at is the two major problems the 2012 Steelers faced over the last year, special teams and offensive line.
Special Teams has a soft spot for me with their lack of any help this year to improving our chances of winning games, while they seemed to do a great job in helping lose games like Dallas and Baltimore. Is the standard really the standard in terms of special teams? Let's take a closer look.
Here are the stats of where they ranked:
16th in Kick Off Return Yardage Average (Down 8 spots from 2011)
21th in Touchback Percentage (down 3 spots from 2011
25th in Punting Net Average (down 7 spots from 2011)
21st in Punting Net Average Against (Down 4 spots from 2011)
28th in Punt Return Average (Down 15 spots from 2011)
15th in Putn Return Average Against (up one spot)
I couldn't find data for these in 2011 but in 2012:
24th in Kick Off Return Yardage Average Against
27th in Touchbacks Against
The standard apparently dropped an average of 6 spots from the 2011 effort and ended in the bottom half or bottom thrid of the league in rankings. Considering our return talent in Antonio Brown and Chris Rainey along with the special teams defensivive tallent these stats are completely not up to the standard. Not to mention the amount of penalties that killed long returns in the begining of the season and presason.
Which leaves the question why did Al Everest get fired? Obviously Amos Jones is FAR from the answer.... is anything going to be done here to get up to "the standard"?
The offensive line coaching position is obviously up for grabs with Sean Kugler leaving for UTEP.... the posts about Tunch Illkin I think are on point here.
The stats Kugler had with the team over his last 3 seasons:
Sacks Allowed
2010 25th at 43
2011 24th at 42
2012 19th at 37
QB Hits Allowed
2010 21st at 78
2011 19th at 77
2012 13th at 67
Rushing Touchdowns
2010 8th with 15 TDs
2011 15th with 13 TDs
2012 28th with 8 TDs
Obviously Todd Haley's system helped protect the QB this year and moved the scoring in the redzone from running the ball to throwing the ball, what we obviously need help with is injuries and depth. How we fix that in light of Kuglers absence is going to be the million dollar question next year.

- Comments and insights on the name Micah: | Edit
Being named Micah provides aspiration - to seek justice, to love kindness, and to be humble.
- Personal experiences with the name Micah: | Edit
I've found Micah to be a unique, strong name. I'm not a Michael or a Mike - I'm a Micah. Sure, some folks trip over it; I've heard a few "Me-cah" mispronunciations over the years. But, I recommend my name for those who want their child to forge their own path, think independently, and be rooted with a name that provides moral guidance.
I am a big fan of Micah. As far as male Biblical names ending in -ah, I much prefer it to the ever popular Noah and Jonah. Maybe because it sounds more traditional, since it's similar to Michael.
- Nicknames for Micah: | Edit
No nicknames for Micah. The name stands on its own.
- Meanings and history of the name Micah: | Edit
Micah is an Old Testament prophet. A commonly quoted verse is Micah 6:8, "He has shown you, O man, what is good and what the Lord requires of you: to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God."

Micah Owings, Major League Baseball pitcher currently pitching for the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The bridge is an iconic structure for countries which helps traffic navigation over physical obstacles especially body of water. Here are famous bridges around the world in pretty scenic views. Some are spectacular breathtaking.
The Tower Bridge stoods over the River Thames in London and is one of the world's most recognisable bridges in the world. One of the most famous examples of the bascule type is the Tower Bridge, which spans the River Thames just below London Bridge. It is the most distinctive of London's bridges and its construction was a masterly engineering achievement. Engineers were able to build this type of bridge without interrupting traffic on the great commercial waterway.
Westminster Bridge is a road and foot traffic bridge over the River Thames between Westminger and Lambeth.This bridge was esteemed one of the most complete and elegant structures of the kind in the world. It is built entirely of stone, and extends over the river at a place where it is 1,223 feet broad, which is above 300 feet broader than at London Bridge. On each side is a fine balustrade of stone, with places of shelter from the rain. The width of the bridge is 44 feet, having on each side a fine Footway for passengers. It consisting of fourteen piers, and thirteen large and two small arches, all semicircular, that in the centre being 76 feet wide, and the rest decreasing four feet each from the other; so that the two last arches of the thirteen great ones are each 52 feet. It is computed that 40,000l. value in stone and other materials is always under water.
The Bosphorus or Bosporus , also known as the Istanbul Strait , is a strait that forms part of the boundary between the European part of Turkey and its Asian part . It is one of the Turkish Straits, along with the Dardanelles. The world's narrowest strait used for international navigation, it connects the Black Sea with the Sea of Marmara (which is connected by the Dardanelles to the Aegean Sea, and thereby to the Mediterranean Sea). It is approximately 30 km (19 mi) long, with a maximum width of 3,700 m (12,139 ft) at the northern entrance, and a minimum width of 700 m (2,297 ft) between Kandilli and A?iyan; and 750 m (2,461 ft) between Anadoluhisar? and Rumelihisar?. The depth varies from 36 to 124 m (118 to 407 ft) in midstream. The shores of the strait are heavily populated as the city of Istanbul (with a metropolitan area in excess of 11 million inhabitants) straddles it.
The first, the Bosphorus Bridge, is 1,074 m (3,524 ft) long and was completed in 1973. The second, Fatih Sultan Mehmet (Bosphorus II) Bridge, is 1,090 m (3,576 ft) long, and was completed in 1988 about 5 km (3 mi) north of the first bridge.
The Brooklyn Bridge is one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States. At the time it opened, it was the longest suspension bridge in the world, stretching 5,989 feet (1825 m) over the East River, connecting the New York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Upon completion in 1883, it was the longest suspension bridge in the world, the first steel-wire suspension bridge, and the first bridge to connect to Manhattan.
Originally referred to as the New York and Brooklyn Bridge, it was dubbed the Brooklyn Bridge in an 1867 letter to the editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle and formally so named by the city government in 1915. Since its opening, it has become an iconic part of the New York skyline. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1964.
The San-Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge is a toll bridge which spans the San Francisco Bay and links the Californian cities of Oakland and San Francisco in the United States.
The toll bridge was conceived as early as the gold rush days, but construction did not begin until 1933. Designed by Charles H. Purcell, and built by American Bridge Company, it opened for traffic on November 12, 1936, six months before the Golden Gate Bridge. It originally carried automobile traffic on its upper deck, and trucks and trains on the lower, but after the closure of the Key System, the lower deck was converted to road traffic as well.
The Tsing Ma Bridge is a bridge in Hong Kong. It is the world's seventh-longest span suspension bridge. The bridge was named after two of the islands at its ends, namely Tsing Yi and Ma Wan . It has two decks and carries both roadrail traffic, which also makes it the largest suspension bridge of this type. The bridge has a main span of 1,377 metres (4,518 ft) and a height of 206 metres (676 ft). The span is the largest of all bridges in the world carrying rail traffic. and
The 41 metres (135 ft) wide bridge deck carries six lanes of automobile traffic, with three lanes in each direction. The lower level contains two rail tracks. There are also two sheltered carriageways on the lower deck for maintenance access and as backup for traffic when particularly severe typhoons strike Hong Kong. Though road traffic would need to be closed in that case, trains could still get through in either direction.
Richmond Bridge is a Grade I listed 18th-century stone arch bridge in south west London, England, which crosses the River Thames at Richmond, connecting the two halves of the present-day London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Because the river meanders from its general west to east direction, flowing from southeast to northwest in this part of London, what would otherwise be known as the north and south banks are often referred to as the "Middlesex" (Twickenham) and "Surrey" (Richmond) banks respectively, named after the historic counties to which each side once belonged.
The bridge was built between 1774 and 1777 to the designs of James Paine and Kenton Couse, as a replacement for a ferry crossing which connected Richmond town centre on the east bank with its neighbouring district of East Twickenham (St. Margarets) to the west. Its construction was privately funded by a tontine scheme, for which tolls were charged until 1859. The bridge was widened and slightly flattened in 1937–40, but otherwise still conforms to its original design. The eighth Thames bridge to be built in what is now Greater London, it is today the oldest surviving Thames bridge in London.
The Nanpu Bridge, located at the South Dock – the narrowest part of the lower reaches of the Huangpu River, was constructed in 1991. The main arch of the bridge has a span of 423 meters and a height of 46 meters. The total length of the bridge is 846 meters, and the bridge tower is 150 meters tall. Nanpu bridge is the first bridge on the Huangpu River. Tourists can take the elevator to get to the sidewalk of the bridge and overlook the scenery on both banks of the Huangpu River.

For several decades, Art Gilmore was the voice of Hollywood—or so it seemed. He narrated so many coming-attractions trailers that it almost seemed as if he'd cornered the market. When a tribute to him was mounted at the American Cinematheque's Egyptian Theater some years ago the trailers ranged from Alfred Hitchcock classics to schlocky teen and sci-fi films of the 1950s. He always struck just the right note.
In fact, reading these scripts came so quickly and easily to him that, he once told me, he was almost tempted to—
—leave the motor running in his car while he recorded them! For a man who started out as an actor and mastered the craft of radio (and later television) announcing to the point that he co-authored a textbook on the subject, spewing out a handful of promotional lines was just a piece of cake.
I first met Art Gilmore when I wanted to produce a story about vintage movie trailers for Entertainment Tonight. I'd only recently moved to Los Angeles and didn't have a lot of industry contacts. (This was also before the Internet made searching for information so simple.) How could I find out if this legendary announcer was still alive? I decided to consult the San Fernando Valley phone book and there he was, living with his wife Grace in Sherman Oaks. When I phoned to ask about an interview he sounded wary, only because (it turned out) he was unaccustomed to being in the spotlight. He was a very good subject and proved it again when I spoke to him for my book about radio, The Great American Broadcast. (In one of those impossible coincidences, just weeks after meeting him for the first time his nephew, Robb Weller, was hired as the host of ET!)
As I chatted with him at our first meeting, I could scarcely believe that I was sitting across from the man whose voice boomed out the unforgettable words, "LIVE—FROM TELEVISION CITY IN HOLLYWOOD" every week at the beginning of The Red Skelton Show. That was my indelible memory of his all-American voice. Art announced many famous shows on radio (Amos 'n' Andy, Dr. Christian, Red Ryder) and television (The George Gobel Show, Climax, Shower of Stars, Highway Patrol) and also acted, mostly for Jack Webb on Dragnet (as a police captain), Emergency!, and Adam-12. Broadcasters also know that Art gave back to his profession, serving as both local and national president of AFTRA, and donating his services to Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic.
Art Gilmore lived a good life, and was married to his loving wife Grace, who survives him, for seventy-two years. They have two daughters, two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
I will always remember him as a genuinely nice man who was generous to me in more ways than one. His voice will never leave my consciousness, because I continue to hear it as I enjoy vintage radio shows—and movie trailers.
Byron Hodges | October 30, 2010 2:51 AM
Art Gilmore was one of a kind. He will be missed. I watched Highway Patrol growing up and could recite the opening credits form memory today. All the roles he played in Jack Webb's productions and other shows. There will not be another like him.
I am so glad to hear that he had a wonderful life and the type of person he was.
I am sorry I never got to meet him.
Thanks for the memories.

I first met Art. Gilmore in 1943 when I was 12 and in military academy during WWII. I had decided to be a radio announcer when I was 8 and patterned my practicing after hearing him so many times on the big RCA in our home. After repeated requests, my mother took me to see the "Dr. Christian" radio show in Hollywood. Following the program, the cast walked through the lobby in a roped off area so that audience members might see and speak with them. There was Jean Hersholt, Lurene Tuttle and the rest. It was thrilling. But the one I wanted to meet was Art Gilmore. "Mr. Gilmore," my mother called, "my son wanted to meet you." He seemed genuinely pleased to come over and chat with us. I was breathless. I told him that being on radio was a dream of mine. He asked my mother for contact information in case something came up that he could help me with. When I was much older, my mother told me that Mr. Gilmore had called a few weeks later to tell her that children were being auditioned for "Dr. Christian" and he hoped that I could try out. She waited to tell me that because she had said, "No." She felt that I should not leave military academy even for that short time and knew that I would have been terribly disappointed if I had known it at the time. Some 20+ years later, I joined the staff of KWIZ in Santa Ana, Calif., an AFTRA station, and made it a point to drive up to Hollywood to one of the union's meetings where Mr. Gilmore was President. I got a chance to tell him that I had succeeded in becoming an announcer and thanked him for being an inspiration to me all these years. Good night, Mr. Gilmore, it was great listening to you.
Hal | October 4, 2010 9:46 AM
Art Gilmore also dubbed the voice of FDR in "Yankee Doodle Dandy", repeating the role for the radio version.
Carl Rabbin | October 4, 2010 2:43 AM
Mr. Gilmore also narrated records of stories for children. That's how I first heard of him. If I remember right, back in the mid-1950s I had a 78 RPM recording of him narrating the story of Peer Gynt (the Norwegian folk tale) accompanied by the music by Grieg. I was quite surprised that he was also the announcer on so many TV shows (often ending with "This is Art Gilmore Speaking"). He was probably the first inspiration for my interest in broadcasting. I never pursued it beyond college, but never lost my interest.
Kevin Butler | October 2, 2010 8:58 AM
My God!
Another sad loss to radio & tv history.
I grew up listening to Mr.Gilmore annoucing"The Red Skelton Hour!"/''The Red Skelton TV Shows"on CBS TV.
And he became just a welcomed part of my life as Mr.Skelton's comedy characters,skits and pantomimes.
He will be missed Lenny.
Goodbye Mr.Gilmore!
Kevin S.Butler.
John Butler | October 2, 2010 5:59 AM
Thanks LM for giving equal billing to the "broadcaster" part of Art Gilmore's wonderful career. A lot of that work is locked in vaults and broadcast museums, or lost. But his powerful and distinctive work in all those trailers is replayed endlessly, and sounds as good as ever.
Jeff Walton | October 2, 2010 4:42 AM
Nobody...nobody will ever be able to duplicate the magic voice of Art Gilmore. If you stop and think about it Art was the one who read the copy and got you into that theatre seat. Over the years I've often thought what they need to sell todays film trailers was Art Gilmore's honest, direct selling of a film. I can still hear him now.
voxpop | October 1, 2010 11:08 AM
I'm 79 years old and as a teenager I saw my first radio show at CBS in Hollywood; then and there I decided that's what I wanted to do and I did. I bought Art's book on announcing and founded it quite helpful as I talked into my wire recorder..God bless you Art.
Tom Kennedy | September 30, 2010 4:32 AM
Simply excellent- an oxymoron perhaps - but the best way to describe the talent and personality of Art Gilmore.
As a radio/television/recording voice Art was unmatched. His voice will continue to be heard as well as his reputation in the broadcasting industry manifested by his being honored as Chairman Emeritus of The Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters.
Long live your memory Art!
Gerry Fry | September 29, 2010 12:30 PM
As an aspiring announcer growing up in Spokane, Art Gilmore was one of my role models, especially when I learned that he attended Washington State College (now University) just 70 miles south in Pullman. Many years later I have been proud to know him and share membership with him in Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters, of which he was a founder and Chairman Emeritus. Our PPB Art Gilmore Career Achievement Award, given five times a year to celebrity industry pioneers, will keep his name alive for many years to come.
Roger Smith | September 29, 2010 11:24 AM
Art was a long-time friend of characer actor Parley Baer, who had a career-ending stroke in 1997. When Parley's daughter, Kim, and I were caregiving for him, Art continued his friendship with many visits to the home, until Parley passed in 2002. We took pictures like this one with Leonard Maltin, and treasure them along with memories of this good man who never forgot his friends, and who, then at 90, drive his own car to come and visit. Thank God, his audiences will hear him forever. Rest in Peace, Art. You were well loved.
Roy Atkinson | September 29, 2010 10:48 AM
So great to learn that Art Gilmore had such a long and happy life. As a kid I remember him from "Climax" and Red Skelton. But all those coming attractions trailers he did are both history and great fun today. What a treat to catch one of them on TCM or as a DVD bonus extra. His voice will live on.
Gary Goltz | September 29, 2010 6:57 AM
10-4 Art. We will miss you at our event on Monday which will now be dedicated to you.
dbenson | September 29, 2010 5:42 AM
I remember Art Gilmore appearing on camera exactly once for the Red Skelton show. It was a special consisting entirely of silent bits, I think, with no big guest stars or musical numbers. And instead of the usual monologue, there was a thin, serious stranger in a tux to do a short introduction. When he gave his name as Art Gilmore in that familiar voice, the audience applauded and he looked a little surprised.

MLS wants to add a team in Queens
NEW YORK — Major League Soccer commissioner Don Garber said the league is at "the finish line" in negotiations with New York City to acquire land to build a stadium in Queens that would become home for the league's 20th team.
Garber says MLS hopes to have the team start play in 2016 at a 10-acre site in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park and spark a rivalry with the Red Bulls, who play at a 25,189-capacity stadium that opened in 2010 in Harrison.
"We believe that this second team in New York will help create an opportunity to break through the clutter in this market of almost a dozen professional sports teams," Garber said during a telephone conference call Monday.
"There are 13 million people in this city," he said, also including some of the suburban population. "Many of them love the game. We need to give them all an opportunity to stop for a moment and pay attention to Major League Soccer, to pay more attention to the Red Bulls, to pay attention to this 20th team and create very, very special moments for soccer in the New York metropolitan area."
After starting with 10 teams in 1996, expanding to 12 and then contracting to 10 in 2002, the league added a second Los Angeles team in 2004 with Chivas USA and launched its 19th this year in Montreal.
Garber said the Red Bulls do not have the right to block a second team in the market. New Red Bulls sporting director Jerome de Bontin told Fox this month that an additional team probably was premature.
"I'm not at all concerned about Jerome's point of view. I think it's just part of being new," Garber said. "We've had the full support of Red Bulls ownership."
He said possibilities for expansion beyond New York include Atlanta, Orlando, Miami and Minneapolis.
As for the two existing teams still hoping for new stadiums, Garber said: "I believe there is new momentum down in D.C. There seems to be a more focused approach, the New England Revolution are hoping for a downtown venue. We are looking for public support up in that area because of just the cost of developing a project."
In addition, MLS is negotiating with the Mets to use the parking lots adjacent to Citi Field.
Red Bulls keep two
The Red Bulls signed Brandon Barklage and Connor Lade to new contracts.
The team said Lade will train with Sevilla in Spain from Dec. 13-23.
Both players are midfielders and defenders. Playing primarily as a right back, Barklage started 16 of 19 games this year, scoring two goals and five assists.
A former St. John's University product, Lade started 22 of 26 matches and had three assists. The Livingston native also started the team's two playoff games this year.
Napoli alive
Napoli moved back into title contention with a 1-0 win at Cagliari, placing the southern club two points behind Italian league leader Juventus.
With Napoli's leading scorer Edinson Cavani suspended and fellow forward Goran Pandev out injured, Marek Hamsik found the target in the 72nd minute with an angled shot from inside the area to finish off a feed from Lorenzo Insigne, who also hit the post in the first half.
Napoli is attempting to win Serie A for the first time since Diego Maradona led the club to titles in 1987 and 1990.
Meanwhile, Inter Milan wasted a chance to move within one point of the lead with a 1-0 loss at Parma, where Nicola Sansone's unassisted goal in the 75th minute held up.

Earlier this week, David Price and Evan Longoria expressed their feelings that an insufficient number of hometown fans in the Tampa area come to see their games. The reaction to those comments has largely been negative. The players have been characterized as "out of touch" with the economic realities of fans and "unskilled" in the art of communications between players/franchises and their potential customers. As usual, I would prefer to see this situation differently. I think the players are spot on with their comments and more people should be taking note here.
The Tampa Bay Rays enter the final weekend of the baseball season with the best record in the AL – - albeit by only half a game. The Rays play an exciting brand of baseball using highly aggressive base running. They are fun to watch.
Now for the data… Let us look at average attendance for the teams in the playoffs as of this morning:
NY Yankees: 46,449 – - up 573 from 2009
Minnesota: 39,783 – - up 11,397 from 2009
Texas: 30,357 – - up 4,079 from 2009
Philly: 44,968 – - up 515 from 2009
Cincy: 25,304 – - up 3,560 from 2009
San Fran: 37,303 – - up 1,753 from 2009
Atlanta: 30,155 – - up 976 from 2009
Tampa: 23,025 – - down 123 from 2009.
Let me start with the unarguable points here. The Rays have the lowest attendance of all the playoff teams as of this morning. Moreover, the Rays are the only team on that list whose attendance has declined this year compared to last year.
Granted Tampa/St. Pete is a small market; it simply cannot turn out fans at the same rate that New York or Philly turn out fans. At the same time, Cincinnati and Minneapolis are hardly megalopolises… Even Atlanta – - notoriously blasé about pro sports – - plays to 31% bigger crowds than the ones that show up in Tampa.
The Rays rank 22nd in average attendance in MLB. Of the eight teams that play to smaller home crowds than the Rays, five of those teams have less than 70 wins on this final weekend of the season while the Rays have 94 wins.
The conclusion I draw here is that MLB made a significant error in judgment when it put an expansion franchise in Tampa/St. Pete starting in 1995. If fans will not support a team when it is in danger of having the best record in its league, there is a fundamental question that needs an answer:
Why the Hell is that team still in that location?
Let me hang up and you can answer that on the air…
The University of California – Berkley announced that it will cut four of its varsity sports programs and demote its rugby team from varsity status to club status. The stated reason is – - money. Sports being cut are baseball, men's and women's gymnastics and women's lacrosse. The school said that its athletic department had been running in the red to the tune of about $10 – 13M per year for the last several years, so this had to be done – - even though they say it is only going to save $4M per year. Are more cuts coming? Or, is a $6-9M per year deficit acceptable while a $10-13M per year deficit outrageous? Whatever…
The problem with all four of those sports – - and rugby too – - is that they generate next to no revenue to offset their costs. I don't know what the counting rules are here such that these four teams account for $4M per year in expenses, but the option does not exist for these sports to get into some kind of promotional frenzy and generate an additional $4M per year to keep their individual accounts out of the red.
Next time you hear anyone moaning about how football and men's basketball programs get all the benefits at a school, remember this situation. Those are the sports that generate the revenue that allow these other programs to exist in the first place. Without football and men's basketball, no athletic department in the country could possibly break even on the rest of its sports.
There has been immense focus this week on Donovan McNabb's return to Philly as the QB for the Washington Redskins. There has been a tsunami of opinion on whether or not he will be cheered or booed and what McNabb really feels about Philly fans and the way he was treated there. I do not want to add to that hypothesizing.
Nonetheless, I do want to observe that the NFL schedule makers missed an opportunity that would have allowed fans in another NFL city to see how they might measure up against Philly's notorious boo-birds. The Eagles play the Falcons this year; they meet on October 17th. However, the scheduling czar put the game in Philly and not in Atlanta. I wonder how Michael Vick would be welcomed there… Alas, we shall not find out.
Penn State is "Linebacker U". The moniker is well-earned with graduates including Jack Ham, Brandon Short, LaVar Arrington, Dennis Onkotz, Shane Conlan, Andre Collins, Dan Connor and Paul Pozluszny – - off the top of my head. And, there were others… Perhaps now is the time to consider a similar label for another school.
Maybe Purdue should be "Quarterback U" on the basis that three Purdue grads have won Super Bowl championships. In chronological order, they are:
Len Dawson
Bob Griese
Drew Brees
Finally, here is a comment from Brad Rock in the Deseret Morning News:
"The New York Times is reporting a high percentage of people have been committing crimes while wearing Yankees apparel.
"And that's not even including those front office types who are charging $1,000 for a seat against the Red Sox."
But don't get me wrong, I love sports…

Newcastle United may have had their unbeaten start to the season ended by Manchester City, but the Magpies weren't about to let that get them down against old friends Manchester United. After a controversial match at Old Trafford, the visitors emerged with a 1-1 draw and a point, and United weren't very happy about it.
It's not difficult to understand why - the hosts were ahead and in control of the match when Rio Ferdinand dispossessed Hatem Ben Arfa with what seemed like an entirely fair sliding challenge, but referee Mike Jones, on the advice of the linesman, pointed to the spot and Demba Ba was able to convert, cancelling out Javier Hernandez's rather fortuitious opening goal.
There was more drama to come as Jonas Gutierrez found himself sent off for a rash challenge on Nani, and United would subject their guests to a late onslaught. Tim Krul was called into action on several occasions in the last few minutes and Danny Simpson was forced into a goalline clearance before the hosts regained the lead only to find the goal ruled out thanks to offside. There wasn't enough time to score for real, and at the final whistle several frustrated red shirts surrounded Jones demanding an explanation for the draw. Dropping two points means that Manchester City are now four clear at the top of the table, with the chance to make that seven when they play against Liverpool on Sunday.

Aroldis Chapman Defects!
I hope the Cubs make a serious attempt at this guy. He has unbelievable stuff not unlike Stephen Strasburg. I just hope he doesn't end up with the White Sox. However, the more I think about this, there's no way the Cubs could outlay the cash it would take to get him with the current ownership situation. Perhaps if Chapman takes a few months before he signs anywhere.

Call to exploit export potential of tuna fish
Our Bureau
Visakhapatnam , March 8
TUNA is a largely unexploited resource and therefore the Indian seafood industry should gear up to exploit the species, especially in the wake of the recent setbacks suffered by theshrimp exporters, Mr G. Mohan Kumar, Chairman of the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA), has said.
He was speaking to reporters here in the fishing harbour on Tuesdayafter examining the tuna catch in a trawler. He commended the efforts of the local seafood exporters in teaming up to take up tuna fishing.
Eight trawlers, which hitherto used to take up shrimp fishing, had been converted to take up tuna fishing. "They have formed a consortium and Rs 35 lakh has been spent for conversion of each vessel,'' Mr Mohan Kumar said.
He said there was great demand for tuna fish, especially in Japan, but the handling of the fish posed many great difficulties. "To throw light on the fishing techniques, on-board handling methods and to highlight the business potential, MPEDA is organising a seminar here on Wednesday,'' he said.

The more I listen to 'Out Of My System', the more I love it! The 'Flesh And Bone era' of your songwriting was exceptionally underrated.

Thanks again for the songs.

I always love free stuff but it is so much better when it is something you love. This is why I have loved richard Marx for years and always will, the best voice ever. One I can listen to for hours and never get tired of hearing it. LOve the songs Thanks. I just really need a place to down load the Hazard album it is the only one I don't have, i did have it in tape but that makes me sound old. Thanks, Donnell your biggest fan!

Thank you for the two new songs! I've been a fan for years — especially back in college at the University of Georgia (1989). I love both songs — Since Our Last Goodbye is very raw and I love it! Out of my System is a classic — awesome!

I'm listening you,Richard, since the begining. I was 18 years old in 1987. I'm a big fan. Your music was a refugee for me at each step in my life.
Thank you for this two new songs. I'm not disappointed and its a real gift for me : I'm 42 years old since a few days.
Everything you write comes in an instant a real CLASSIC !!
I live in France and i have also the chance to have ticket for your live performance in Paris in November. A big thank you to come and sing for us.

Just wanted to tell you that i fell in love with both your voice and Vince Gill's the same time…you both had break out hits in '88, i think it was, and because my Dad played and sang in a Country band, i went with Vince. Really sorry i didn't follow you as well, though adored your songs on the radio.(back in the Dark Ages )
