When I first started writing here on Buffalo Rumblings I wrote a column called "Stop It! Not as Much has Changed as we would Like to Think". You can read that here: http://www.buffalorumblings.com/2013/5/17/4339886/stop-it-not-as-much-has-changed-as-we-would-like-to-think . The comments were fantastic and interesting but I was shocked at how people could not believe that I was going after the, "Newly Named President," Russ Brandon. I figured for a site with dedicated, diehard BILLS fans that follow the team as religiously as I do that my thoughts on Brandon would be equally shared. When you are done reading this I have a great feeling that you will see through the smokescreen and see Russ Brandon for what he is and that is one of professional sports worst executives.
Before we get into it, let's give the quick bio on the "Newly Promoted President."
Grew up in suburban Syracuse, NY.
Graduate of St. John Fisher College in Pittsford, NY.
Started sports career with the Rochester Red Wings (AAA Baseball).
Worked for the Florida Marlins in their marketing and business department in the mid-1990's and worked for them when they won the World Series in 1997.
Joined the BILLS in November, 1997 as Executive Director of Business Development and Marketing.
Served as Vice President of Business Development and Marketing from January, 1999-January, 2006.
Became Executive Vice President of Business Operations from January, 2006-2008.
Promoted to Chief Operating Officer (COO) in 2008.
Became team's General Manager after the 2007 season after Marv Levy retired.
Named Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in January 2010.
Became President of the Buffalo BILLS on New Year's Day, 2013.
All information verified from the Official 2012 Buffalo BILLS Media Guide which can be seen at http://prod.static.bills.clubs.nfl.com/assets/docs/2012BuffaloBillsMediaGuide.pdf
So there is the tale of the tape right there. In the interest of being fair I think it is important to give Russ some credit where it is due. While this article is going to be extremely persuasive against the BILLS President, there have been a couple of things he has done right. He did lead the organization to selling 55,000+ season tickets in 2008 and 2009, the only time that has ever happened in back-to-back years in franchise history. He also deserves total credit for moving training camp to St. John Fisher College in 1999. Now it is only at that specific school because he is an alumnus there and he used his connections but it should be noted whether you like the college or not it was a major victory to move training camp to the Rochester area. He could have picked any of the six college campuses in Monroe County and he would have been just as successful. He figured out how to turn training camp into a profitable venture and tourist destination for football fans. Many teams now employ this model that he came up with and he deserves all the credit in the world for that.
Alright enough of that! Time for the meat and potatoes here.
First we have to eliminate this notion that this guy was given full power six months ago. Russ Brandon has been in control of the franchise since January of 2008 when he assumed control of BOTH the business and football operations of the BILLS after Marv Levy retired as General Manager.
Ralph Wilson at that time was 89 years old. He was and still does live in the Detroit area. While he used to make appearances at the stadium, he has not been in Buffalo for three years. Ralph is now 94 years old and has suffered a broken hip which has made him wheelchair bound. Last year he was hospitalized with an "Undisclosed infection." If you think a man of this age and of the health that goes with that was capable of running an NFL franchise from over 500 miles away until January of this year then you may also believe in the existence of Unicorns.
When Brandon assumed control of both ends of 1 BILLS Drive he became in essence the, "Defacto Owner." Brandon does go to NFL Owners meetings and casts votes on Ralph Wilson's behalf as the representative of the Buffalo BILLS. In other words this idea that he now has full control is just not true. He has had it now for five years and is going onto year six. In those five years the team has been a laughingstock and doormat of the NFL.
Now after all of that we can finally go through the list of, "Brandon Blunders."
Put Brian Moorman Punting the Ball on Season Ticket Renewal Posters: In one of the goofier blunders in sports marketing history a team that had went 10 years without a playoff appearance decided to entice 2009 season ticket holders with a poster of the BILLS punter punting the ball from his own endzone against the Browns in the infamous 6-3 game that set football back 50 years. As you will see as you continue to read you will notice this pattern of a disconnect that he has with the fans. The BILLS claimed that it was their best picture with the scoreboard and fit their message but seriously, the BILLS didn't have Photoshop in 2010? Hard to believe and one of the many mistakes that Russ and his staff have made.
Firing Tom Modrak and John Guy at 11:30pm: On May 4, 2011 Vice President of College Scouting, Tom Modrak and Director of Pro Player Personnel, John Guy were fired by Brandon and General Manager Buddy Nix. They were the last two high ranking employees from the Tom Donahoe era. The mistake was not in firing these two who had mismanaged football operations to the point of oblivion. The mistake was firing them after the 11:00 news so that it could not be printed in the papers or talked about or put online until the morning after. In one of the few decisions that had made fans happy, why wait all that time to announce it? Why delay the good publicity that comes from getting rid of two guys who were terrible at their jobs? A good marketing and public relations person would recognize that and would have announced it during business hours to give it the most play possible. The fact that it came out at 11:30 made it look like the team was hiding that decision instead of just handling it like the normal personnel decisions that are made in the league everyday.
Letting Buddy Nix Hire Chan Gailey: Nobody knows for sure whether or not Brandon or Wilson personally hired Buddy Nix. Being forced to guess it looks like Brandon consulted Wilson after conducting interviews and Ralph decided to go with the elder statesmen and former employee. In one of Ralph's last public appearances he made a statement following the 2009 season and firings of Dick Jaron and interim coach Perry Fewell that he would be willing to spend up to $100 million over 10 years to hire a coach. The fans were ecstatic! With all of the big names out there, finally one of them would come and right the ship of the Buffalo Bills. Names started floating including Super Bowl Champions Bill Cowher, Brian Billick and Mike Shanahan. Other names like Steve Mariucci and Marty Schottenheimer surfaced. Fans spent $10,000 on a billboard demanding that the team hire Cowher. Whoever it was going to be, the fans and the media were convinced it was going to be a big name with a big reputation who was going to bring big talent to Buffalo and was going to rescue this team from the basement. Instead of roaring like a lion the BILLS whimpered out of the gates and hired Chan Gailey. Chan who? Chan Gailey. His last head coaching job was at Georgia Tech and he had not been an NFL Head Coach since the 20th Century. It was Nix who clearly made the hire but it was Brandon's responsibility as CEO and the voice of Wilson to carry out the owner's creed that he would spend huge money on a coach. The, "Marketing Genius," needed to step in and tell his GM, "Hey we have not made the playoffs in 10 years and our owner promised a big money coach. Maybe we should look at someone else." He didn't do that and instead the team did worst under Gailey (16-32) then they did under the first three years of Jauron who was 21-27.
Saluting Scott Norwood: As stupid as that looks this just furthers the disconnect that Brandon has with the fans. This was the game in 2011 at the Ralph against the Jets in which the BILLS came in 5-2 and then the wheels fell off. I was at this game and as part of the festivities of the BILLS finally being competitive Russ decided that at halftime he would salute Scott Norwood. With all due respect to Scott Norwood, we know what happened and we know he never kicked again. Whether you believe in superstitions or not, saluting the guy who was responsible for the single most heartbreaking moment in franchise history during a divisional game in which you are on your way to ending a 12 year playoff draught is a terrible idea. I stayed in the concourse and bathroom during halftime. This is like running a black cat on a leash under a ladder while breaking a mirror at the 50-yard line at the same time. It wasn't decided in the preseason that Norwood was going to be honored. It was announced during the week of the game. Of all the guys and all the weeks, that is when you salute him? Not something the fans wanted and while obviously it had nothing to do with the BILLS losing it just showed another poor decision by the, "Marketing Genius."
Toronto: The day Russ Brandon woke up in a cold sweat thinking that going to Toronto was a good idea was the day I woke up in a cold sweat knowing that this could doom the franchise to relocation and that he needed to be fired! After the success of training camp Brandon started thinking of other ways to regionalize the team, to increase its geographical footprint and sell more tickets and make more money. He felt that since training camp in Rochester had worked so well, he wondered what he could do with Toronto. Canada's biggest city with 6 million people located just two hours north of Buffalo. In a move that defies logic he sold a home game in a sport where a team only has eight of them and a time in which the team was (Still is) on the LA watch list and with an owner who has not announced a succession plan for the franchise after he passes.
Brandon held a press conference and announced to a nationwide audience which included potential new owners that the Greater Buffalo Area could not support eight dates on its own. He said that Toronto was vital to the team's regionalization efforts and that it needed Toronto for the long term viability of the franchise. Think about how that sounded to the NFL, to Los Angeles and to potential new owners. He gave off a message that Buffalo could not continue to support an NFL franchise. He might as well buried the franchise and give it a eulogy.
The original deal was eight games over five years for $78 million. That worked out to $9.75 million per game which was a considerable raise compared to what they make per game at the Ralph. The deal and the games were a disaster. On the field the BILLS were 1-4. Rogers Communications who owns the Rogers Centre in Toronto struggled to sell tickets with the 55,000 seat stadium averaging less than 40,000 fans through the gates for the series. The most being just over 40,000 last year for the Seahawks game. The players have complained calling it a joke and stating that it is not a home game. The fans have hated it feeling cheated out of big named opponents. The first two regular season games of the series were slaps to the fans' faces as divisional opponents Miami and the Jets got to go north costing the fans and the team the chance to provide that hostile home field that the area is so proud of. The last three games were against big market teams with great fan bases. The crowds have been small and mostly of football fans instead of BILLS fans. While financially it was a great success the rest of the deal has been a catastrophic failure.
Renewing the Toronto Deal: In a move that continued to show Brandon's inability to understand his customers or public relations he renewed the deal with Rogers for an undisclosed amount of money for another five years. Shame on the media for not forcing Brandon to announce how much the deal was signed for. Anybody who knows anything about business knows that you only redo a deal for the same or more money. If you redo it for less money then clearly it was a bad deal to begin with. This was one of those cases. It's a six game deal with only one preseason game and five more years of losing a regular season home game. This year it is against Super Bowl contender Atlanta in December. Given that Rogers needed the deal for less money, they made out like bandits. With it being two less games and no longer being $9.75 million per game it looks like the deal was done for only $20-30 million which is less than half of the original deal. Think about that for a second. Russ Brandon has such little faith in this market and fan base that he would rather nearly give away a home game then come up with ways to make the team more viable here in Western, NY. If the team does move after Ralph Wilson passes you can bet that the new owner will blame long term viability as a reason and that is directly linked to the Toronto deal.
Not Convincing Ralph to Announce a Succession Plan: Some of you will say that Ralph can do what he wants and he can but think about what is the right thing to do given the situation. On the field the team has struggled. Off the field they have sold a game to Toronto, the team is on the LA Watch list and the owner is in his mid-90's. This fan base has been through hell and they deserve much better than this. If the, "Marketing Genius" knew anything about public relations he would have thrown the fans a bone of some kind. There hasn't even been an announcement that the family or Russ will try to find an owner who will keep the team here. This on top of the bogus lease agreement that the team signed with Erie County to stay at the stadium. The lease is 10 years and for the first six there is a relocation penalty of $400 million. After the sixth year in which Ralph would turn 100 years old the relocation penalty drops to just under $29 million. Brandon in his press conference said the lease would assure the long term viability of the franchise. If the team can up and leave for $370 million less, how does that ensure any viability? Again it all goes to the succession plan which supposily Wilson has but isn't telling anybody. So the fans of a failing franchise have to wait on pins and needles for the owner to die and then wait and see what happens. Given what this fanbase has been through that is simply unacceptable and again it falls on Brandon who is in the trenches to give the fans something.
Not Rolling Back the Blackout Rule to 85%: After all of the mistakes that this guy has made over the years here was a chance to do something good for the fans. With the exception of 2004 this team has not really been in playoff contention come December which means that many of those cold weather games have been blackedout. I am against the blackout rule but the NFL to appease congress decided this cheap way to get the government off of their backs. The catch was that it would mean giving more ticket revenue to the visiting team. That is the reason that Brandon decided not to roll back but the truth is he needed to eat those costs. With all of the bad PR and bad decisions and uncertaintly surrounding this franchise you absolutley do this for the fans. If that gets an extra game on the tube then it is worth it. When you have taken so much from the fans and given nothing back, this was an opportunity to give something back and he blew it.
As you can see the mistakes are glaring and enormous and if you believe in the phrases, "It rolls down hill," and, "It all starts from the top," then you have to blame the, "Defacto Owner," Russ Brandon.

Verizon Employees in South Carolina Donate $11,800 Worth of Items to Assist Area Schools
Items Collected by Employees at Companywide 'Tools for School' CampaignNews Release
August 21, 2008 –
COLUMBIA, S.C. - Verizon employees from five work sites across South Carolina collected more than $11,800 worth of items to donate to local schools and nonprofit organizations from Charleston to Greenville during a recent Tools for School drive.
These South Carolina workers were among Verizon employees at 372 company locations throughout the country that took part in the two-week campaign to collect new pens and pencils, rulers, crayons, backpacks and other items children need to start the school year. In all, employees donated an estimated $300,000 worth of supplies to more than 300 schools and nonprofits across the U.S.
According to a study by Quality Education Data and the Heller Reports, K-12 teachers spend an average of $475 of their own money each year to buy classroom materials and supplies.
"Supporting education and literacy has long been a primary social cause for Verizon," said Stan Bugner, Verizon vice president-public affairs, policy and communications in South Carolina. "Whether it's by providing interactive educational tools on Verizon's Thinkfinity.org Web site, or pencils and crayons for the classroom, Verizon will continue to support efforts to give parents, students and teachers the tools needed to help all children succeed."
Thinkfinity.org is the Verizon Foundation's comprehensive program and online portal to 55,000 standards-based, grade-specific, K-12 lesson plans and other educational resources provided in partnership with many of the nation's leading educational and literacy organizations.
The Verizon Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Verizon Communications, supports the advancement of literacy and K-12 education through Thinkfinity.org, and fosters awareness and prevention of domestic violence. In 2007, the foundation awarded more than $67.4 million in grants to nonprofit agencies in the United States and abroad. The foundation also matched the charitable donations of Verizon employees and retirees, resulting in $25.1 million in combined contributions. Through Verizon Volunteers, one of the nation's largest employee volunteer programs, Verizon employees and retirees have volunteered more than 3 million hours of community service since Verizon's inception in 2000.

i just purchased the theme and have been struggling in getting the footer to display, so i can add my contact information, etc…, how can i do this?
I'm trying to install this theme and it keeps saying:
"The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. Theme install failed."
I double checked the zip file and style.css is there. I tried moving the style.css stylesheet to the main folder, thinking maybe it didn't recognize it in the subfolder, but then I got this message:
"The style.css stylesheet doesn't contain a valid theme header."
SO I tried to upload it by FTP and when I went into my WP Dashboard—> Themes it says
Broken Themes: The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template. Stylesheet is missing.
I can't figure out why it's doing that when style.css is right in the CSS folder.
Hi,Maybe this will help: http://themes.brutaldesign.com/support/discussion/8/broken-theme-and-stylesheet-missing-issues#Item_1
I am a novice user…is this theme meant for more advanced users?...I know nothing about coding. I purchased this theme a few weeks ago and am having the hardest time getting it to look right. I was told that basic setup instructions could be found in the "Documentation" folder. However, the folder only contains a lot of CSS files and images. Am I missing/overlooking something. I really like the look and feel of the theme and would like to get it to work….I'm just so lost on how to get it to work right.
1: I want to remove the "Musicpro" logo -
I was told "You can update your own logo in the theme options or add the following CSS in the theme options CSS box to hide the logo completely:
1a. In Wordpress I went to "Musicpro" then "Theme Options" and on both the "General" and "Homepage" tabs and attempted to replace the Musicpro logo and none of the options on the the tabs for uploading a new image/logo got rid of / replaced the logo with my own. What do I need to do…please be very specific?
2 I want to use the slider at the top of the page however, every time I place an image in the slider it changes it's size and monopolizes the page in stead of just being a 1/3 of the homepage real estate the way it is in the theme preview. What's do I need to do in order to keep the size of the slider the same? Please be very specific
3 Are there any basic instructions (a how to document) for setting up the site?
4 Are refund or themforest credits available if I can not get this them to work? I love the them and I want to use it and I want it to work…I really don't want another theme honestly but If I can't get it to work or have to spend so much time on simple things …I will have no choice..
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
Please write a comment with normal font size like everyone else, and I will reply to you.
i just purchased the theme and have been struggling to install it on wordpress it keeps giving me a erron msg when i try to upload the zip file, its says that is missing a .css page. how can i solve this?
Hi,Maybe this will help: http://themes.brutaldesign.com/support/discussion/8/broken-theme-and-stylesheet-missing-issues#Item_1
is there a chance you could install this theme for me??
Just got your email. Looks like you figured it out.
Hey man. Thanks for the great layout. I was able to built a beautiful site. Couple quick questions though…. 1. How can I remove the green banner from the top of the page? 2. How can I change the "stone" image behind the header? 3. How do I remove the twitter from the very bottom of the page?
Sorry if these are a bit amateurish questions. I'm kind of a techtard. Thanks
Jason sandbagandhide.com
Simply leave the top bar message field empty in the theme options. The green top bar won't be displayed then.
You can upload your header background image in the theme options -> style tab
Remove the twitter default value in the Bd Socials admin panel
I hope it will help
hey its me again, im having a hard time on the home page, i want to add the latest news, but it shows huge blog post instead of thumbnails and how do i make the links color blue instead of yellow or orange
Use the bd_last_posts shortcodes (see the shortcode list in the admin)
You can set the link color in the theme options
Hi Brutal Design, I am having a challenge and need your help. For any post on the blog that is shared/liked on Facebook keeps the original logo of the template. What do I need to do to replace that logo with my own on the shares. I have already replaced the logo under Musicpro/Theme options. I appreciate your help on this. Thanks
pls give me the URL of your website
it is CalvarysLight.com
Hi,Just checked a sinlge post and the featured image is used for facebook. You can check this here https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
If you still have issue with the default image (for post that don't have a featured image) replace the file directly in features/bd-share/share_image.jpg.
Note that the facebook cache is a pain in the ass: if you have already post an URL on your wall before uploading a featured image or uploading your "default share image", the default one will still be shown, because of the facebook cache.
Also, if you use a cache plugin, this is the reason why you can't see your new "default share image"
I hope it will help
I appreciate your help. It make sense the cache being an issue. I did not understand where I would go to change features/bd-share/share_image.jpg. Thanks.
1/ If you uploaded an image in the share admin panel, be sure that your issue doesn't come from a 3rd part cache plugin
2/Otherwise, replace the image file by your own file directly in the theme folder : features/bd-share/share_image.jpg
Awesome, that worked great. I appreciate that. Another question… How can I add an Itunes and Amazon bottom on a regular page like you have in the Discography? I've seen the Paypal shortcode but I would like to add the itunes, and amazon bottom as well. Thanks.
There is no shortcodes for those buttons, but you can add these in Html, using the html mode in the text editor:iTunes:
Buy on iTunesAmazon:
Buy on amazon
Hello Master! As always this theme is just outstanding. Everything is just neat! I tried to solve one little yet hard problem which is typical in WP. I want to add PAGINATION in the discography page. Or at least just a 'Previous' and 'Next' links. Any ideas how to do that? I tried to add my own coding but I am guessing that I am missing something out. Thanks for your support
Hey!1/ Replace the loop by at row 13 by:
$loop = new WP_Query("post_type=release&posts_per_page=$paged");2/ Add the pagination function after the end of the loop at row 55
I have tried 5 different methods of creating OGG files (including Audacity, WinAmp, some shareware app, and two websites) and every time I try to upload to the Jplayer I get an error saying it's not a valid OGG file. Can you tell me what app or website converter will create OGG files that will actually work with Jplayer? The entire theme is great, but the media player is becoming a pain in the neck. Thank you.
There is a know issue with the mp3 upload with firefox on mac. Sorry about that. You can get rid of the mp3 verification by removing/commenting the rows 449 to 452 and 478 and 479 in includes/features/bd-jplayer/inc/jplayer-functions.php
I hope it will help
Hi, thanks for the reply. The bug appears in all OS versions of Firefox (I use Windows). I found that if I remove the verification lines as you suggested, I get a 404 error every time I try to upload a new song to a playlist. What worked for me was to go into the wp-content subfolders and manually add the .ogg files, then go to the MySQL database and manually add the .ogg references within the playlist. It still generates an error if I try to use the upload interface for Jplayer in WP Admin. Will there be a permanent fix for this? It's a great theme overall but this Jplayer issue is a bummer.
The theme has been updated, and you should be able to upload your files with firefox on mac now.
Hello BD,
just tried to add the player on the page. If I add the one song player, it is not a problem, it works nice. but I like to add a player with more songs. Just tried to do it by clicking on jPlayer and creating a playlist. After that tried to manage songs… and add the songs there… but after a while of waiting, nothing is happening and I can't upload a song. (no error message) Please Help me…
Thanks a lot
Hi,Check your server upload size limit on the admin upload page. It is probably the reason of your problem. This will help http://themes.brutaldesign.com/support/discussion/172/increase-php-upload_max_filesize#Item_1
hi, cant find the discography and last photos shortcode. can you send it to me?
You can check the shortcode list in the admin panel (shortcodes list tab)
Hi! Thank you for a great theme and all the updates! I have a problem with a couple of things. It's regarding discography and gallery. In discography you'll end up on a 404 page when you push view more details and when you try to enter view gallery you end up on a 404 page. Had a friend looking into it who knows these things and said that everything was in order. Is it a bug or something I do wrong? The page is www.nostralove.com Thank you so much in advance!
Refreshing your permalink should fix the issue. In settings -> permalink -> save
I hope it will help
It helped!! Thank you so much!
Hi. First of all. Great Theme. My question: Is it possible to show a self-hosted video in the video gallery. Tryed to embed a mp4 video, but it doesn't play!?
Thanks & Greets
The video gallery supports only video from youtube, vimeo and dailymotion.
I've had this same issue as a few others on here ( its says that it is missing a .css page). I noticed that you gave them a link (below), but the link is not opening. Could you help me out? I love the theme. Would love it even better if it would upload
First off, great theme. I've been customizing this and have run into an issue that I'm hoping you'll have a fix for. I've noticed that the dropdown sub menus (even on the sample site here at themeforest) fall behind the Nivo Slider when viewing in IE10.
Do you know of a fix or when one may be available for this theme? Thank you!
Ok, but.. just checked and the menu is OK for me on the demo on IE10, IE9 and even IE8.
Which OS are you using?
Thanks for the response. I'm using IE 10.0.9200.16484 Still having the same issue on both the demo site: http://themeforest.net/item/music-pro-music-oriented-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/1582368
As well as the customized site I'm building:http://uticacoffeeroasting.com/beta1/
Screenshot of this example here: http://uticacoffeeroasting.com/beta1/ie_nivoissue.png
is is possible it's just my machine? Running it in IE9 and IE9/8 Compatibility mode have the menus showing fine – problem is only IE 10.
Thanks much.
I can't tell, as it works fine to me on IE10 on my windows 8 PC. I don't think it is a CSS z-index problem as the sub menu is already at 999.
If you got some plugin installed you should try to disable them to see if the problem does not come from a 3dr party plugin..
To be honest, I'm a little lost here..In looking at your screenshot, I would tell that it is not IE10. We can't see the border radius on the skin switcher and nivo slider borders, the top bar css is messed up and there is an additional vertical scrollbar. Looks like IE7 to me.. Pretty weird. Also, you can't see the nivo slider navigation bullets. http://d.pr/i/aTdS
You should double check your compatibility mode (F12)
Sorry if I can't help you further
Hey …. awesome theme! I just have one question. How do I change the favicon pic in the website browser to my own?
Replace the favicon.ico file in your theme folder. To see the modifications, empty your browser cache and refresh your page
I hope it will help

Political window dressing and the silent revolution in South Africa
31st of January 2014
I see the two Socialist Sisters eventually found each other. Helen Zille and Mamphela Ramphele, that is.
The DA swallowed up another insignificant party, Agang, just like they swallowed up the ID of Patricia de Lille in 2010, which it seems have now been relegated to stepsister status.
Zille and Ramphele are old friends who socialize at home and look after each other's children.
DA-Agang to announce merger plans
How two women could transform South Africa
The DA even made Ramphele their presidential candidate.
Elsewhere, Malema and Buthelezi also found each other it seems.
No merger between IFP and EFF (yet)
Ramphele has a track record of being useless at everything she has tried. She was the shortest vice chancellor of UCT, useless as managing director of the World Bank and even worse as Chair Person of Gold Fields from which she resigned last year to become a full time political prostitute. Now she is a board member of Anglo-American Corporation.
Six months after its launch, Agang was rocked by political infighting and factionalism. Three weeks ago the media announced that Agang's funds dried up.
Agang's funds dry up
Agang wracked by rivalries
How can anybody take this party seriously? God help South Africa if Mamparra Ramphele ever becomes president.
Mamphela Ramphele to challenge Jacob Zuma for presidency
What to make of all of this?
I see there are a lot of people getting all excited about this political window dressing playing out to the run-up to the 2014 election farce.
So first of all there are the two forces at play here in SA as always…Big Business Capitalism's agencies of the West VS Communists of the EAST.
As usual the Communists play chess and the West plays Monopoly.
Neither cares a damn about the people of South Africa, white or black. All they are interested in is raping our mineral wealth.
For those of you, who are familiar with my Pandora series, you will know that Gold Fields, of which Mamphela Ramphele was the chairperson, was the company who facilitated the talks between Apartheid Secret Agents and the ANC to steal our country away from us.
It was Lenin who said that to control the opposition you have to lead it yourself.
In fact the only opposition the communists tolerate is the one they have created themselves.
Knowing the dialectical way in which the Communists operate, it seems as if the ANC created both Agang and the EFF as the Thesis and Antithesis so that they (the ANC) can appear as the moderate Synthesis somewhere in the middle.
Further, they have allowed their agents (Ramphele & Malema) to infiltrate the real opposition (The DA and the IFP).
But Ramphele is a double agent. Just like Mbeki was. The West knows this so they treat her very well. Sun Tzu said in chapter 13 of "The Art of War" that you should always treat spies well, even double agents, because you can use them to your benefit. Feed them false info so they can spread it amongst the enemy etc.
But Ramphele has been groomed for greater things. The West has given her top positions and lots of money without her actually doing anything for it. The only things she has are struggle credentials and being Steve Biko's girlfriend. Now they want something in return.
Big business/mining and agencies of the West want Ramphele as president and appease the masses so they can carry on raping and stealing the mineral wealth of South Africa.
The ANC has been getting a bit too greedy lately. Their strategy was always to use the striking masses (Cosatu) to intimidate the Randlords and mining bosses so they could extort more money from them.
But the West has got that base covered. Over the last few months we have seen them gear up to destroy Cosatu by buying over the biggest union affiliated to Cosatu namely Numsa and destroying leader Zwelinzima Vavi with allegations of sexual harassment in their Liberal media in a clasical "Strike-the-shepherd-and-the-sheep-will-scatter" move.
Numsa to split from Cosatu
Vavi free of rape accusations but sexual harassment lingers
To me it has become clear that the West has had it with the ANC. The ANC has overplayed its hand in becoming too greedy and unable to control the proletariat. Their days are numbered.
At the moment everything points to an active Western undermining of the ANC and its alliance partners (SACP and Cosatu). In fact what we are seeing is a silent revolution in SA. The West wants their agents Zille and Ramphele in charge.
The question is how long this revolution will stay quiet, because the ANC/SACP is aware of what is going on. They want to stay in power forever and there is no way they will take this sitting down.
If you study revolutions like Dr. Crane Brinton in "Anatomy of a revolution" you will see that no revolution starts spontaneously by disgruntled or hungry citizens. All revolutions start from outside of a country driven by powers that have loads of money. South Africa's civil war is creeping nearer.
I do not have much hope for the DA-Agang merger. You cannot tie two cripples together and expect them to outrun a 100m sprinter.
A year ago I said "If you want to beat the ANC you have to be more brutal than them. You have to terrorise the terrorists into submission. The previous government hammered the ANC so hard, pursued and hunted them down overseas and blew their offices and terrorist operatives to smithereens, to the extent that the ANC by the 1980's was nothing but an unmanned fax machine in Dar-es-Salaam. Anything weaker than that will fail against the ANC."
Unless the Money Power behind the DA and Agang merger is willing to brutalize the ANC, the ANC will stay in power.
Every revolutionary idea seems to evoke three stages of reaction. They may be summed up by the phrases: 1- It's completely impossible. 2- It's possible, but it's not worth doing. 3- I said it was a good idea all along.

Who said all the AGANG members will even migrate to DA?ReplyDelete
many said they do not support her move,so again its a useless party & stunt by the DA.
Yes,the west have had it with these anc kleptomaniacs & have employed many measures to remove these scumbags but if you read Dr.Dan roodts latest article on Tribalism in sa,you would realize the lengths to which these thugs are prepared to go,to stay in power.
The ANC are facing threats from all fronts,unions,EFF,amcu,usa,jz & fraud,etc
If the west could remove no.1 & instill DA/agang that would be first prize,but that will never happen because they are regionalized parties.(WKaap)
They would also be prepared to loose j.z & keep the anc but somebody they could control,with a 'level" head.
This is the price we pay for being an open market now with Russia knocking.

You kidding right.....these are the ramblings of a paranoid individual. So easy to criticize. Why not get up and actually try and make a difference instead of moaning from the sidelines. Your negativity skews your perceptions towards a Godless belief system where you perceive the world and all the people in it as being evil and against you. So in effect you create your own reality, for this is exactly what you bring out in people - their worst side (the one with all their fears and anger).

Graham, the last thing I want to do is stand in the way of your so-called "progress". Carry on mate. If that is what you call it.
Maybe if you take off your rose-tinted glasses and see the world as a realist instead of a liberal idealist you will see that South Africa has only gone backwards. What "progress" is it you are talking about?
You say I should "try and make a difference instead of moaning from the sidelines"…what "difference" is it you want me to achieve? Holding hands and singing Kumbaya with your ANC mates? Do it if you want, just don't expect me to join you.
If you are so convinced of your "progress", why do you want me to still make a "difference"?
A "Godless belief system"? Oh I see, any belief system that is different to yours is "Godeless" and therefore evil. Anybody that doesn't share your rose-tinted views is "negative" and has "Skewed perceptions".
What a condescending, arrogant prick you are.
You say I should "change"…Change into what? A liberal doos like you? I have news for you Sparky, I was one. I did change. Keep reading this blog and you might change as well, because eventually all liberals come over to our side, never the other way around.

Wonder why when we are looking through old photo albums we laugh about the styles of yesterdays, but when we look at photos that were taken last week, we are not alarmed? Styles have always been important to mankind and they will always be changing. Like King Solomon said 'nothing is new under the sun', "What goes around, comes around?"
When I was a teenager, you were among the 'in crowd' if you wore a tee shirt, with blue jeans, a pair of penny loafers, and white sox. Today's teens would not be 'caught dead' in such attire. Our hair style was a flat top with fenders or duck tails. Again, this fashion would not work in today's vogue.

I don't have a tape of the game and I'm sure many of you do. They hardly showed any replays of the first interception at all, so I don't know if my analysis is correct. We like to line up in a bunch formation on one side with Holmes isolated on the other side and have him run either out or post routes. From what I saw of Holmes' route it looked like he was trying to fake the DB into thinking he was running a post and then get behind him for a big play. It looked to me like Ben didn't set his feet and square up to make the throw and as a result badly underthrew an open Santonio Holmes. This interception was a terrible decision by Ben. He has a nasty habit of throwing w/o setting his feet.
On the second interception I believe Indy blitzed and Holmes was the hot read. Ben threw the ball ahead of Holmes but Holmes stopped and the ball got picked off. I don't know whether Holmes was supposed to keep running or not (often times the receiver is supposed to find an open spot and then stay there). I also don't know whether that pass would have been complete if Holmes had kept running, the DB was in pretty good position to at least break it up. I don't think we had any other open guys though because I think Moore stayed in to pick up the blitz. I think Ben made the correct decision to throw to Holmes there, just with terrible results - then again I don't have the tape, so if someone else was open on that play let me know.
Overall, our passing offense made progress today. Ben was generally throwing the ball to open guys (30/42 for 280 yards). The second interception might not have even been his fault. I think that possibly due to missed practice there was miscommunication between Ben and his receivers - there was a 3rd down play in the first half where Ben thought Ward was running an in route or a post and Ward ran deep instead - the result was a FG instead of a first down and possible TD.
You know what they say in sports, "you're never as good as your best statistical performances make you look and you're never as bad as your worst statistical performances make you look." In his last 10 quarters, Ben has 8 interceptions - only 2 of which were clearly the result of bad decision making on his part. 2 were on Hail Mary passes, 1 was on 4th down, 2 were on batted balls and 1* was because Holmes stopped running. The other 2 were definitely due to stupid decisions by Ben. I noted the last one with an asterisk because Holmes may have been supposed to stop running.
Anyways, let me know what you think.

ABC News: Planned Parenthood CEO a White House Top Adviser on Contraception Mandate; Insider Profit Motive Unquestioned
Jake Tapper of ABC News wrote a remarkable story last week revealing the players in the Obama administration's internal debate on the contraception mandate.
According to Tapper, President Obama's top advisers on the issue included Vice President Joe Biden, former White House Chief-of-Staff Bill Daley, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, former Domestic Policy Council Director Melody Barnes, White House Senior Advisers Valerie Jarrett and Pete Rouse, former White House Communications Director Anita Dunn, two U.S. Senators – and Planned Parenthood Federation for America CEO Cecile Richards:
The debate within the White House on this issue was, sources say, heated….
The policy was wrong, the two Catholic men, Biden and Daley [and also Panetta], argued, saying that the Obama administration couldn't force religious charities to pay for something they think is a sin….
But Biden and Daley faced a strong group making the case for the rule within the administration….
The two sides couldn't even agree about what they were debating. In the fall, Richards brought in polling indicating that the American people overwhelmingly supported the birth control benefit in health insurance. She also highlighted statistics showing the overwhelming use of birth control.
The Vice President and others argued that this wouldn't be seen as an issue of contraception – it would be seen as an issue of religious liberty. They questioned the polling of the rule advocates, arguing that it didn't explain the issue in full, it ignored the question of what religious groups should have to pay for….
The president ultimately sided with the rule's advocates…..
Surprising to me was Richards' unquestioned prominence at the White House. Why did the mainstream media not question an obvious benefactor of the contraceptive mandate being in on the conversation? Richards is truly in the inner circle. Pro-lifers knew Richards had influence, but to see in writing just exactly how much weight she carries is informative.
More from Bloomberg on the internal struggle, which does not specifically list Richards but does mention Planned Parenthood later in the piece:
Obama ended months of internal White House debate by siding with a group of mostly female advisers who urged him not to limit a health-care law mandate to provide contraceptives, even at the risk of alienating Catholic voters in November, people familiar with the discussions said….
Sebelius, a Catholic and a two-term governor of Kansas, was joined by several female Obama advisers in urging against a broad exemption for religious organizations.
Note that liberal feminists and the abortion lobby carried more sway with Obama than his higher ranking male advisers. Recall Barnes is a former Planned Parenthood Action Fund and EMILY's List board member and also a former lobbyist for the Center for Reproductive Rights. We all know how tied into the abortion industry Sebelius is. Obama has surrounded himself with radical pro-abortion feminists.
More on Richards' importance, from an Associated Press piece about Obama's "accommodation":
Before announcing the decision, Obama called [Sister Carol] Keehan [CEO of the Catholic Health Association], Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards and Cardinal-designate Timothy Dolan, head of the nation's Roman Catholic bishops.
Here is an interesting aside. Seeking to explain why Obama's original mandate didn't fly, the Chicago Sun-Times says it was partially because Planned Parenthood and feminists were distracted…
Another part of the answer of why Obama backed down is that the women's groups, the dependable White House allies, did not all have their acts entirely together to react quickly.
That's in part because last week, when the trouble heated up, the groups were running what was a successful campaign to force the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation to back down and reverse its decision to ban funding for Planned Parenthood breast-cancer screenings.

why don't republicans
Submitted by dan iroticiv on Mon, 02/13/2012 - 4:20pm.
Please stop counting on the NBCs of the world to be fair and balance. Republican politicians including R. Santorum, Newt G. and Mitt Romney were all on the Sunday talk shows and did not say a word about this information. Nor will they, or any other so called conservative pundit who goes on the mainstream media shows. How many years have republican politicians given planned parenthood a pass out of fear of being labeled what "pro life" How many republican or conservative radio host have quoted Margaret Sanger's racist rants? Stop bitching about the mainstreamm media, and start holding the leaders of the GOP accountable for being timid and playing defense.

They would rather see women Kill babies than have more people running around the planet. You see they feel that as long as they can control the population of Minorites (And thats what Planned Parenthood was all about..... That and population control!) and keep those minorites under they control (Or as its been said keep them on the plantation) They they will keep their power!

DEFUND Planned Parenthood.
Submitted by kevinm13 on Tue, 02/14/2012 - 10:16am.
Why should an organization built around counselling women to seek abortions get any federal taxpayer dollars?, let alone hundreds of millions?. Planned Parenthood should be the same as NPR, the Dept of Education and Department of Energy and all be cut from federal taxpayer money. If there is the level of support that they say there is for these organizations, they should find plenty of supporters willing to donate money to keep them going but I don't want my tax dollars going to killing the unborn.
This should be a major issue, along with all the jobs killed by 0bama's wrong tax and spend policies that should lead to a landslide defeat of 0bama in November. Keep up the pressure and make sure that everybody knows what is going on with 0bama's war on religion and his plans to put abortion as taxpayer paid.

Eminem - We Made You
Artist: Eminem
Producer: Dr. Dre
Album: Relapse
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 129 total votes )
"Guess who's back, back again,"—you know the rest! Having stirred fan anticipation to a fever pitch with hit buzz single Crack A Bottle, Eminem steps back into the shoes of his troublemaking alter-ego, Slim Shady, for Relapse's official first single. In the tradition of celebrity-bashing lead singles My Name Is, The Real Slim Shady, Without Me, and Just Lose It, We Made You sees Slim taking aim at Kim Kardashian, Ellen DeGeneres, Sarah Palin, Jessica Alba, and Amy Winehouse, to name a few (for the full experience, check out the official music video). As Em proves he's still got his finger on the pulse of popular culture, an uncredited Jessica Simpson impersonator's hook and Dr. Dre's lounge-flavored boardwork take the cut's catchiness to the next level—needless to say, WMY is poised to take radio, MTV, and the charts (Booth and Billboard alike) by storm, and pave the way for Relapse's arrival on May 19th.

One last caution: Some people externally rotate their legs because of an anomaly in the shape of their femurs or in the orientation of the hip joint itself. If you feel discomfort in your knees, ankles, or feet as you work to reduce your external rotation, you may have one of these structural anomalies and should be checked by a knowledgeable health care provider or an experienced yoga teacher well trained in anatomy and kinesiology. But if your only difficulty is the hard work of internal rotation, I urge you to persevere. Your internal rotators may grumble and complain, but with time and practice, they'll grow stronger, and your whole physical structure will benefit from a better-aligned foundation in your legs.

The "YES!" chant is one of the best developments to come along in WWE crowds in a good long while. Anything that supports Daniel Bryan in his bid to take over the WWE Universe and bring good wrestling to the forefront of a new generation is fine by me. The most important part of those two sentences is that it's great for WWE. That's where Bryan is, that's where Bryan represents us as fans, and that's where those chants should happen.
Where they shouldn't be happening is at independent wrestling shows. I know that it's the mark of the kind of fan who goes to an indie show to be cool and hip and do the thing that everyone else seems to do to show that they're "smart". That being said, has anyone ever thought of the implication of chanting "YES!" repeatedly at a show where WWE and its ethos are about as far removed as anything within wrestling can be? I'm not sure that's the case.
The most recent example of this bleeding over of chants happened at Chikarasaurus Rex: How to Hatch a Dinosaur. I was there and sat in the crowd as several times, they burst into "YES! YES! YES" chants. The first time was understandable; it was during the preshow when "The Final Countdown" played over the Trocadero PA system. I can give a mulligan to the crowd for that, but what about during the actual matches? Why is it such a big deal that fans chant another guy's chant at wrestlers in the ring?
It's because it sends a terrible message to the guys in the ring. Whether it's the case or not, it tells them that you would rather be at a WWE event, cheering on Daniel Bryan, and that you couldn't care any less than you in that moment about the guys in the ring busting their humps and giving you a show. I don't know about you, but if I was doing something for a crowd and they kept reminding me that I wasn't as famous as someone else in my field doing it when I did something great, I'd be pretty pissed too.
It'd be like if all the comments on everyone of my blogs, whether here or at my home at The Wrestling Blog, said "BEST AND WORST!" or "DEAD WRESTLER OF THE WEEK!" or something of that ilk, I'd be a little annoyed. That doesn't mean that the guys in the ring dislike or resent Bryan, just like I don't resent Brandon Stroud or David Shoemaker. In fact, I hold both in high regard and read them all the time. But the truth is, I want you to read my work and absorb it and judge it on its own merits.
The same goes for pro wrestlers. The Young Bucks, Johnny Gargano, Chuck Taylor, Matthew Palmer, Rachel Summerlyn and everyone else who steps into a wrestling ring. They want to feel like you're judging them for the art they create, not to always be held up to a standard that to them might feel impossible to replicate sometimes. It's a matter wholly borne of subjectivity whether Bryan is "better" than those indie wrestlers, but it's totally objective to say that Bryan has attained more success in the wrestling industry than they have. A true statement or not, it's not something that those wrestlers deserve to have thrown in their faces when they're out there performing for you for three figures a show, sometimes as a weekend thing they do to escape from their 40 hour-a-week jobs. I don't think it's fair to them at all.
I'm not saying we need to be nice to all indie wrestlers or walk on eggshells. Believe me, no one is infallible, but if you truly appreciate what they do in the ring, there are better ways to express that than by spamming a "YES! YES! YES!" chant at them. We already have the "This is awesome!" chant which works just fine, thank you very much. The wrestlers will appreciate it more. I know that sometimes, they can be nothing more than cattle to you as fans, so who cares what they think, but at the same time, everyone wants to feel appreciated, especially people who put their bodies on the line so you can have a good time on a weekend night.
I don't mean to get all "Tsk tsk" at people for expressing themselves, because Lord knows I'm all for free expression. That being said, while you're all well within your rights to "YES!" whatever you want, I ask that you use some restraint and think about showing your appreciation not only with your dollars but with your creativity. These wrestlers are the innovators. Don't recycle chants meant for guys who work for WWE, no matter how awesome they may be, for these fine men and women who are the future of wrestling and deserve their own chants, thank you very much.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

Thar she blows. It's the right time to spot, yes, whales off the coast of South Floridaby Willie Howard
Now that we've had a few blasts of cold air, it's time to watch the surface of the ocean for the V-shaped spouts of water from endangered right whales.
Unconfirmed sightings of right whales have been reported this winter season as far south as Fort Pierce, said Julie Albert of the Palm Bay-based Marine Resources Council, which tracks the whereabouts of right whales.
There's good news for the whales, which come south to give birth in the winter. Eleven calves have been reported along the coasts of several Southeastern states so far this winter.
"The survival of each whale and calf is crucial to the recovery of this species," said Barb Zoodsma, right whale recovery coordinator for NOAA Fisheries Service.
Right whales are dark with no dorsal fin and have hardened patches of skin on their heads. They often swim slowly at or near the surface.
Observers are encouraged to report right whale sightings and get photos of their heads if possible. Reports of the whales' whereabouts are relayed to ships to reduce the chance that they will be struck.
For the record, it's illegal to intentionally move within 500 yards of a right whale, but they sometimes appear closer than that.
On Jan. 1, 2010, Juno Beach Pier anglers were treated to the sight of a right whale about 100 yards off the pier.
Anyone who believes they have spotted a right whale should call the Marine Resources Council's Right Whale Reporting Hotline at (888) 979-4253. That's (888) 97-WHALE.
Dead, injured or entangled whales can be reported to NOAA Fisheries Service at (877) 433-8299.
To learn more about right whales, check out films on humpback and right whales that will be shown through the end of January at the Florida Oceanographic Coastal Center in Stuart. Call the center at (772) 225-0505 or go to www.FloridaOcean.org.

Since Pat requested this, here you go.
So I went to a fight last night in Columbus... and a hockey game broke out. No seriously, this was my first trip to Nationwide Arena in a few years to see the Dallas Stars take on the Columbus Blue Jackets and it was worth every penny.
From the opening face-off, the Jackets came out pissed off and looking for redemption from a 6 - 3 shellacking they endured on Thursday night against the Edmonton Oilers. The Jackets also came out looking for blood. This was the game many of us were expecting to see for more than a year following the James Neal hit on Dorsett. It was so intense I couldn't even update Twitter much. Thanks to those who asked me if I was OK. The atmosphere in the entire building matched that of the Blue Jackets. There were some pretty pissed off Jackets fans surrounding me, so I kept my comments to a minimum. I did cheer really loudly on that second Brad Richards goal to much scorn. Also got some pretty weird looks for yelling "Stars" during the anthem. Yikes.
Kari Lehtonen looked amazing in goal and is the only reason the Stars did not lose this game in the first period in my opinion. He looked very comfortable in the crease - especially with his lateral movement. Columbus to their credit came out very aggressive, but they were too aggressive at times. Dorsett tried to get involved in all of the scrums he could, drawing a roughing penalty in the third that set up the 4-on-4 situation that allowed Brad Richards to score. Thanks for opening up the ice there Dorsett to give Brad more room to work his magic. It reminded me a bit of watching the Oilers play in the 80's with Gretzky, purposely drawing penalties to get players off the ice so the Great One had more room to move around.
The non-call on Grossman was outrageous but the officiating the whole night bad enough that I did check to see if our friend Dean Morten was there. It looked like too that one of the Blue Jackets too specifically took a shot at Brenden Morrow's broken nose which I thought was cheap. He's wearing a shield so why are you hitting him in the face - just to see if you can get at his nose? I also thought the Columbus second goal should've counted. The NHL has got to do something about the officiating.
But enough of the bad, there were some things I thought were really good last night for the Stars. I thought Adam Burish played a great game, especially while Ott was serving his misconduct penalty. He was all over the ice, mixing it up with Columbus players, blocking shots. Plus the chemistry he's developed with Ott is awesome. They were talking to each other the whole game, before faceoffs, on the bench, etc… It reminded me a lot of how that old '99 team interacted.
Then there was too Brad Richards. He had an exceptional game, both of his goals were just great goal scorers goals. As I was watching Richards on the ice, and this is really the first time I've had this thought during a game, all I could think was that we are so screwed if we can't find a way to re-sign this guy. It wasn't even the goals that made me feel this, it was when Morrow was so frustrated after the Grossman hit that Richards was talking to the officials. He's becoming an even more important part of this team since the departures of Modano and Turco in more ways than just scoring. Oh dear God please help Nieuwy find a way to get him re-signed long term in Dallas.
Finally, I also thought we did a good job of neutralizing Rick Nash. It's always a good game when you can stop Rich Nash.
The Columbus media picked Brad as the number 1 star of the game but I thought it should've gone to Kari. Garon played well too for the Jackets.
It was a dirty, mean hockey game and was certainly entertaining. In hindsight, I wish we had put Fistric and Sutherby out there instead of Nisky and Barchie - just for their physical presence. I think Sutherby fights better than Barchie. But kudos for Barch getting involved the way he did. I'm just glad I didn't get killed at the game. I hope Grossman is OK. I am 2 for 3 in attending Stars games this year. Behold the power of the tattoo.

A local client wanted a festive circus theme for their annual open house. The event was held in the business's warehouse and the design plan was to simulate the inside of a circus tent. To achieve this, our team began the installation by running a 40′x80′ cable around the center area of the warehouse. Vibrant red and white velon was swagged from the warehouse's truss rafter. The cable was then draped with material to create the perimeter of the simulated circus tent. 10″ white and red drapery dressed the walls venue's walls and hid the business's day to day operations. Entertainers performed on a red skirted 16′x 16′x24″ stage backed with drapery and accented with circus themed props. A Samson P/A system provided audio support. The main entrance to the event was garnished with a full swag of a 8′x10′ tent frame creating a tunnel of red and white fabric.
If your next corporate event calls for fun and whimsical décor, A1 Party can cater to any size venue, indoors or outside.

Q#75 – Frank Wess "The Frank Wess Quartet"
In the first days of 2014 we will remember the great artists who passed away in 2013. The best tribute we can pay THEM is to keep on listening and enjoying their artistic work, recognize its value and thank them for having given us so much.
Frank Wess
Jan. 4, 1922 – Oct. 30, 2013
Flute, Tenor Saxophone
Frank Wess, who helped popularize the flute as a jazz instrument in the 1950s and '60s with the Count Basie Orchestra, where he was also a standout saxophone soloist, died in Manhattan. He was 91.
Mr. Wess was not the first flutist in jazz. But his tonally rich and technically deft flute solos enjoyed an unusually prominent platform: the front row of the powerhouse Basie ensemble.
Mr. Wess had been studying flute at the Modern School of Music in Washington when Basie asked him to join a big band he had formed in 1952 to highlight new compositions and arrangements, many of them by Neal Hefti.
Mr. Wess, who had earlier played with bands led by Billy Eckstine and others, initially resisted, saying he was weary of the road and wanted to finish school. But Basie kept calling.
He joined in 1953 and was an immediate success. Mr. Wess would play tenor saxophone for a few tunes, swapping solos with his fellow tenor player Frank Foster, then switch to flute on the next song. Beginning in 1959, he was voted best jazz flutist for five years in a row in Down Beat magazine's critics' poll.
Mr. Wess left Basie in 1964 and moved to New York. There, he played with a band led by the trumpeter Clark Terry and alongside the pianist Roland Hanna in the New York Jazz Quartet. He also led groups of his own and played on television (he was a member of the "Dick Cavett Show" orchestra), in recording studios and in the pit of Broadway musicals.
In 2007, he was named a Jazz Master by the National Endowment for the Arts.
by By William Yardley, Published: Nov. 3, 2013, The New York Times (excerpts). Read more here.
Frank Wess said (1990): "My teachers at the Modern School of Music in Washington DC, pretty much laughed when I said I wanted to develop the flute in jazz. They just didn't understand it. Me, I don't understand the clarinet. I don't see the satisfactions of playing that in a jazz context."
Recorded: May 1960from "The Penguin Jazz Guide – The History of the Music in the 1001 Best Albums", Brian Morton & Richard Cook, 2010

|In the Waiting Room — What's for dinner?
|Friday, September 06, 2013 12:00 AM
My son's favorite cake has always been carrot cake. He wanted it for his birthday, he wanted it for holidays and whenever he saw it at the store, he would ask for it. So it surprised me when I asked him if he wanted a slice of carrot cake when I saw it on a restaurant menu and he said no. He said he didn't like carrot cake anymore. I was curious as to what caused this sudden change.
"I didn't know it had carrots in it," he informed me.
"It is called carrot cake. That might have given you a clue."
"I thought they called it that because it had a frosting carrot on it."
"Really, well I'm glad you finally cracked their code. I'll inform Wikileaks of the breaking news. "
It didn't matter to him that it still tasted the same as it always had. Once he was aware that it actually contained a …gasp… vegetable, he no longer wanted it.
I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of vegetables that he will eat voluntarily; all other vegetables are a negotiation. He believes that if someone can give up meat to become a vegetarian, he should be able to give up vegetables to become a junkatarian. If it was up to him he would subsist completely on chicken nuggets and fruit loops (which despite the name, doesn't actually contain any fruit, so maybe I can somewhat understand his carrot cake confusion).
I am not alone in the vegetable struggle. Many parents are going through the same struggles with their kids. It isn't surprising really. The taste buds of kids are overly sensitive to bitter tastes so foods that have a bit of a bite to them are perceived as distasteful, whereas a sweeter taste is pleasant to them. It is no surprise that the preferred vegetables of most children are carrots (my son not included), corn and peas, which have a sweeter profile than many vegetables.
You can often get around this by preparing them with a sweet sauce, such as a sweet and sour stir-fry or using a salad dressing for dipping. Sweet potatoes are a good vegetable that we often forget about once they are off pureed foods but kids often really like them sliced with a glaze or baked like French fries and dipped into sauce. Cheese is also a great way to make vegetables more palatable to the picky eater, a fondue dinner is a treat that most kids will enjoy.
For those of you familiar with the Food Network, you will have seen various cooking shows where the chef is judged by food critics. I have found that having a 'vegetable challenge' where all family members who are capable of cooking (even the little ones can get into the act with some help) are challenged to cook a vegetable in the most tasty way.
Advise them that you will be having "The Great Broccoli Challenge" this week and to find their recipe. Everybody gets to judge, make the prize something fun like a golden carrot that can be passed each week to the subsequent winner of the next challenge. Not surprisingly, kids love the opportunity to grade their parents and to beat them at various challenges. Who knows, you might have the next Mario Battali in your family.
Above all, don't fret too much about their eating habits. Their taste buds will mature and they will become more adventurous in their options. In the meantime, encourage more fruits, perhaps add a vitamin to their diet and keep on offering various vegetables.
Remember, like everything else, this too shall pass.

Albany- A recent study indicates prospective employees have to become more technologically equipped to succeed, and employers are going to have to offer current employees technical training courses to increase their productivity.
Albany State Associate Vice-President, Dr. Teresa Merriweather Orok, says this study will help create a better workforce in South Georgia.
She says, "A lot of our people here need additional skills in order for them to move up and advance in work places, and we're addressing not only those without jobs but those within the organizations. "
Dr. Orok says the study will continue for the next five years, and researchers hope to form a cooperation with area businesses to help their employees get more technical training.

Solanum melongena
|Image Description
The eggplant is best known for its large fruit from which its name is derived. Some 18th century European cultivars were yellow or white and resembled goose or hen's eggs. It is known by the scientific name Solanum melongena and is a member of the deadly nightshade Family (Solanaceae), along with the potato, pepper and tomato.
The eggplant is the only member of the nightshade family to have originated in the Eastern Hemisphere. Its use in agriculture was hindered due to its association with the deadly nightshades. It was, in fact, thought to cause insanity by superstitious Europeans, much as the tomato (also a nightshade) was once considered poisonous.[1]. In the 1550's purple and yellow varieties of eggplant were introduced to Germany from Naples, Italy. In the 1600's white Eggplants, along with those with brown different kinds of fruit, pear shaped, long and oblong, thin fruit and round were also found in Germany[2].
The eggplant fruit is a large, gord-shaped berry, it varies in color. It can be an assortment of color, like: dark purple, red, white and even yellow. The leaves of the plant are very large, oval shaped and covered in tiny spiny hairs. The leaves can also grow to be as big as the plant itself. The flowers that bud from the eggplant are violet and white. They are two inches in length and width. The stem of the plant is lined with tiny brush hairs[3]. The eggplant can grow to be two to four feet in width. The eggplant comes in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors, which makes them an outstanding, artistic plant. [4].
The reproductive and the vegetative growth of the eggplant can be changed without causing hurt to the plants while in the process of supplying ammonium nitrogen to the plant[5].
The eggplant is mostly found to be located in temperate and tropical regions. In order to survive, this fruit needs to be grown in a warm climate area[6]. The eggplant is usually grown in the southern and eastern parts of Asia and America to where it is native. California, Louisiana, Florida, New jersey and Virginia are some of the harvesters in the United States. The eggplants are grown in these states and dispersed throughout the United States[7].
It has been discovered that eating eggplant decrease the average human's serum cholesterol. In Northern Africa the eggplants grown were shaped like chicken's eggs. The plants grew in many different colors and weren't used for eating. They were used as decorations and ornaments. In Australia they are referred to as "eggfruits", in the West Indies it is referred to as the "brown jelly",in West Africa it is called the "garden egg", in Europe eggplants are called "aubergines".

I'm as passionate as a Knick fan as any of you. Don't test me because I might prove it. And I've had a blast watching Jeremy Lin growing up in the SF Pro-Am over the last few summers.
Put your keyboard down. Step back from the angst. Lets show some respect for him as a person.
He's like - one of us! And that's why we love him.
Throughout his entire career, nobody gave him a chance of succeeding. For that matter, his "career" only began when he made our colors proud halfway through last year's strike-shortened season.
Think your head is exploding? Consider his cranium. Whatever way the bosses blow, props to J Lin.
