That's why brides go to Iceland! Couple spend just £758 on wedding using fake flowers, a borrowed dress... and supermarket prawn platters
- Lisa Davidson spent £758 - or an astonishing £3.79 a head
- Managed to spend a fraction of £20,000 average cost of a wedding
- Used a borrowed outfit, fake flowers, and decorations from eBay
She had the beautiful white dress, a four-tier wedding cake, and a party for 200 guests.
But Lisa Davidson was determined not to let her wedding costs spiral out of control.
So after months of careful planning she got the lot for just £758 – or an astonishing £3.79 a head.
Mrs Davidson and her new husband Mark managed to spend just a fraction of the £20,000 average cost of a wedding.

Lisa and Mark Davidson managed to pull off their wedding at a fraction of the cost of the average big day
The couple saved another £300 on the flower bill by buying pretend ivory roses, including bouquets for herself, daughter Courtney, six, five other bridesmaids and six flower girls, on eBay
Mrs Davidson's mother made the wedding cake, while she borrowed a long strapless dress from her stepdaughter
Their secrets to an austerity celebration included a borrowed outfit, fake flowers – and a wedding breakfast sourced from budget supermarket Iceland.
The bride's cousin took the photographs and friends lent the couple a caravan in west Wales for a week for their honeymoon.
Mrs Davidson, 33, said of her determination to have a big wedding on a budget: 'We've got such big families and so many friends, and couldn't bear the idea of leaving anyone out.
'And there was no question of feeding our guests sandwiches, or not bothering to decorate the room.
'I was determined to create a day everyone would remember.'
After months of careful planning she got the lot for just £758 - or an astonishing £3.79 a head
They spent £100 for the chapel, but didn't have to pay a fee to the minister - and relied on the bride's cousin to take the photos
The couple have so many friends and family they couldn't bear to leave anyone out - and wanted to give everyone a day to remember
Explaining her decision to stock up at the couple's local Iceland store in near Pontypridd, south Wales, the receptionist added: 'It wasn't just that it was cheap.
'They had more interesting party food than anywhere else we looked.'
Her 52-year-old husband, an electrician, added: 'A lot of wedding food looks all the same, but what was in their cabinets looked totally different, and I reckoned it would go down a treat.'
The couple fed their guests two kinds of prawns, which Mrs Davidson described as: 'Some in crispy batter, others on trays with a dip'.
They also tucked into chicken cooked three ways, including, said the bride, 'Some marinated drumsticks I cooked from scratch, some chicken tikka on sticks, and some garlic chicken rolled to look like lollipops.'
The couple spent £350 on food and believe they saved a third on what they saw shopping around and sampling
The couple fed their guests two kinds of prawns, three kinds of chicken and a dessert buffet which included cheesecakes, lemon meringue pie, and two kinds of gateaux
The happy couple managed to have a four-tier wedding cake to treat their 200 guests at their big day
The meat was accompanied by mini-stuffed jacket potatoes and followed by a dessert buffet which included cheesecakes, lemon meringue pie, and two kinds of gateaux.
Mrs Davidson added: 'The whole thing went down a treat and was worth the cooking I had to do through the night and all the setting out on plates with the help of friends.
'We spent £350 and reckon we saved a third on what we saw shopping around and sampling.'
The couple saved another £300 on the flower bill by buying pretend ivory roses, including bouquets for herself, daughter Courtney, six, five other bridesmaids and six flower girls, on eBay for their wedding in July.
She added: 'They're not real - they're made of foam - but I wanted something I could keep, and I got for £96 as many roses as a florist had quoted me £400 for.'
The couple asked guests to buy their own drinks and paid £150 for a disco and karaoke
Couple stocked up on their wedding buffet from Iceland because it had more interesting party food than anywhere else
Mrs Davidson's mother made the wedding cake, while she borrowed a long strapless dress from her stepdaughter.
For venues, Mrs Davidson explained: 'It cost £100 for the chapel, but I didn't have to pay a fee to the minister.
Chapel service: £100
Hire of reception venue:£40
Reception food for 200: £350
Room and table decorations: £20
Serviettes: £2
Flowers: £96
Disco: £150
Dress: £0 - borrowed from stepdaughter
Cake: £0 - wedding gift from friend
'And we considered the local Labour Club, where we held our reception, really good value at £40 for the night.'
It was back to eBay to dress up the reception room.
'I got paper tablecloths and table scatters for £14.99, and serviettes for £1 per 100,' she said.
Then there were the balloons, at £1.79 for 300, plus a DIY balloon-inflating kit for less than £5.
The couple asked guests to buy their own drinks and paid £150 for a disco and karaoke.'
Mrs Davidson said yesterday: 'We spread the cost by getting whatever we could ahead of time.
'I got the artificial flowers and the tablecloths in six months before the big day.'
She added: 'Friends can't believe how much we managed to get for how little we spent. Now a neighbour who is getting married is planning to follow my lead for her own wedding.'
The Davidson's wedding will feature in Iceland Foods: Life In the Freezer Cabinet on BBC2 on Tuesday November 5.

Ancelotti showers praise on John Terry
Monday 20 July 2009
Carlo Ancelotti described captain John Terry as the "symbol" of his team after seeing Chelsea win their first outing under his charge 2-0 over the Seattle Sounders on Saturday.
Chelsea started their tour of the US against Major League Soccer's newest team in front of 65,289 fans at Qwest Field. Terry wore the captain's armband as he did under Ancelotti's predecessor Guus Hiddink.
First-half goals from teenage debutant Daniel Sturridge and Frank Lampard were enough to see off a Seattle side led by Freddie Ljungberg in their inaugural MLS season.
Continuing the London club's bid to persuade Terry to reject Manchester City's advances, Ancelotti said: "John Terry is a great man, a quiet man and he is a symbol of this team. There is no pressure on him to play. He is a very, very good man."
Having used 21 of the 27 players that made the trip across the Atlantic, the former Milan coach declared himself satisfied with his squad's efforts.
"I learned that on one hand we have a very good team that works very well," Ancelotti said. "Sometimes we can make a mistake but not all the time. The players were concentrated.
"I like this because normally in the first game we can't make a mistake. We want to improve and we will improve for the next game. For the first game I am happy."

Late Night Snacks: Miami hands Charlotte its first loss of season
Dec 15, 2012, 12:15 AM EST
Game of the Night
UCF 75, Old Dominion 71
Of the few close games on the slate Friday night, four players scored in double figures for UCF on the way to a close win on the road. Calvin Newell led the way with 17 points, along with Keith Clanton's 14. After an Old Dominion layup with 22 seconds remaining, but UCF free throws sealed it down the stretch.
Aaron Bacote scored 19 points for Old Dominion, including 6-of-8 shooting from three-point range.
The win extends UCF's winning streak to four games.
Important Outcomes
Boise State 89, LSU 70
The Broncos became a mid-major underdog you could root for after beating a ranked Creighton team and running Michigan State to the wire. Friday night, Leon Rice's team used a strong first half to stay in control most of the night vs. previously undefeated LSU. Anthony Dmric had 34 points for Boise State in the win.
Miami 77, Charlotte 46
The 49ers were undefeated coming into Friday night's game against Miami and left with a blowout loss. Durand Scott had 16 points and 12 rebounds for the Hurricanes, who are beginning to gain some steam after their early season loss to Florida Gulf Coast. Kenny Kadji led Miami with 17 points. Miami has three games left before conference play against Georgia Tech.
Marshall Henderson Shot Tracker
Henderson was the key to the Rebels' 77-55 win over East Tennessee State with 22 points on 7-of-15 shooting from the field. As usual, he was launching from three-point range Friday night, going 6-of-13 from distance. That brings his three-point shooting percentage to 32.5 percent on the year.
Anthony Dmric, Boise State: 34 points in win over LSU
Durand Scott, Miami: 16 points, 12 rebounds in win over Charlotte
Terrence Williams, Charlotte: Williams is averaging just over nine points per game, but shot 0-of-8 from the floor against Miami. He also picked up four personal fouls. He wasn't the only 49er to struggled Friday though, as the team shot 32 percent from the floor overall, including 2-of-14 from three-point range.
The Rest of the Top 25
No Top 25 games Friday night.

Al Qaida financier among seven killed in Algeria
Rezki took up arms against the government in 1994
Algiers: The Algerian army has identified one of seven armed Islamists killed east of the capital earlier this month as a key financier of the local affiliate of Al Qaida, the Al Watan newspaper reported on Saturday.
Izza Rezki, also known as Abou Djaffar, took up arms against the government in 1994, early in Algeria's devastating civil war, and was a key aide of Al Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) leader Abdul Malek Droukdel, the paper said.
He and his comrades were killed on Tuesday in a major operation that is still under way in the Boumerdes region, 50km east of Algiers. A total of nine suspected militants have been killed in the offensive.
Rezki's reported killing follows those of AQIM spokesman Salah Gasmi southeast of Algiers last month and of its commander for the mountainous Kabylie region, Rabah Makhfi, alias Cheikh Nacer, in Bejaia province, east of the capital, in November.
AQIM has remained active in Boumerdes and neighbouring Kabylie despite frequent raids by the army to curtail its activities.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
True story about marijuana grow-op yields an old-fashioned love story
When Calgary playwright Ken Cameron got the call from his distraught parents that the tenant of the family farm house had used it as a marijuana grow-op, he felt conflicting reactions.
His first reaction was dismay, he says about being alerted that his beloved home near London, Ont., had gone to pot. "My second thought was that the story would make a great play."
Cameron chronicled his mom and dad's experience down to the smallest detail in Harvest, a comedy that has been produced over 16 times in theatres between Vancouver Island and Sackville, N.B., since its 2008 debut at the Blyth Festival in southern Ontario. Prairie Theatre Exchange will present it to close its 2013-14 season.
"Everything that is outlined in the play, except for two things, is exactly what happened," says the 44-year-old Cameron, reached in Calgary.
In 2004 his elderly parents sold off the surrounding land, but not the family home when they moved into a London retirement condo. They rented it to a pleasant young man who claimed to be a WestJet pilot. A couple of months later, they checked in on the place and discovered it abandoned with mould all over the walls, indicating that the residence had been converted into a marijuana grow operation. The house owners feared that if the building was a writeoff, their financial security would be ruined.
"My parents were pretty shocked and horrified. They didn't know what to do at first. They had great difficulty with the insurance. They felt pretty foolish about getting taken in. It put salt in their wounds," Cameron says.
Thrilled that he unearthed playwriting gold so close to home, Cameron began writing, but was soon surprised by what he harvested. The criminal activity faded into the background, while the way his parents dealt with their adversity took over the focus.
"In trying to capture the voice of my parents and the dynamics of their relationship, I came to realize I had written a love story," he says. "It was the story of a couple who had reached a point in their life when a crisis hits and in the crucible of that crisis, they find renewed love in their relationship."
The play turned out to be a way Cameron could pay homage to his parents.
"People show their best qualities in their darkest hours. When things are at their most difficult is when one's true colours shine," he says.
The PTE production features Winnipeg actors Megan McArton and Tom Anniko playing 12 characters. Cameron calls his play Wingfield's Farm meets Breaking Bad, referencing the popular Canadian country-comedy stage franchise and the great American TV crime drama about meth mogul Walter White.
"Breaking Bad is a very much, much, much darker story," he says. "There is something both criminal yet essentially harmless about marijuana in our collective national psyche, while there is something criminal, dangerous and unethical about crystal meth. That's the big difference."
Cameron is not all that well-known around these parts, despite having made his local debut at the 2006 Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival, performing his one-man drama My Morocco.
He has a new musical called Dear Johnny Deere -- based on the alt-country songs of Fred Eaglesmith -- which Theatre Calgary recently announced it will stage next season. Another of his better-known plays is My One and Only, which remembers big-screen siren Marilyn Monroe's visit to Banff in 1956 to shoot the movie The River of No Return.
Harvest is still Cameron's one work that offers the best yield of theatre cash.
"The play is a huge success because it's only got two actors onstage and it's cheap to do," says Cameron, who will be in Winnipeg next week to give a workshop for the Manitoba Association of Playwrights on how dramatists can land a second production of their plays. "The set is all boxes and farm stuff. It appeals to theatre audiences because it's about an older retired couple.
"In Canada, if a play is successful at one theatre, they become like sharks smelling blood. Canadian theatres descend on that play because they think they can succeed with it, too."

MY Butterfly, SUGAR BAYBUH
Need More Bands Like This The World Does.
awful band
Digging: Azealia Banks - Broke With Expensive Taste
that sounded unbelievably produced for a 'rough mix'. Probably the best song they've ever done as I wasn't repulsed by it.
Digging: Devil Sold His Soul - Belong ? Betray
If they dropped the stupid synth, and the god-awful cleans, they could probably pass for a semi-mediocre metalcore band.
lol "rough mix"
Intro reminds me of old Asking Alexandria.
The clean vocals made my ears bleed though.
Song rules hard, and I knew it would.
Surprised to see there's a new album already coming out in only a few months, but it should be some good stuff.
Digging: The Birthday Massacre - Superstition
That first synth break was pretty sick actually.
It's pretty impressive. I've always admired their dedication. Their last album wasn't very impressive, but they're a much better than ATTACK ATTACK! Seriously, they have a pop sound and their lyrics are stronger than that metalcore crap.
Digging: Panda Bear - Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper
I'm trying to figure out how I liked this kind of music before. I just find it kind of embarrassing to listen to now. :/
Digging: Rancid - ...And Out Come the Wolves
horrible band
Digging: Renounced - The Melancholy We Ache
This was really good, I'll definitely dig the album if this is what the rest of the songs sound like.
the lyrics are intolerable.
from the info:
"I make ends meat cause I'm a bad bad man"
you'd think being the official channel for the label, they would've checked over their spelling.
that sounded really fucking good, imo, which is a relief, considering how mediocre their last album was.
That first synth break was pretty sick actually. [2]
band sucks so much shit
hahaha "sucks so much shit" puts the grossest image in my mind
Digging: Marketa Irglova - Muna
cleans suddenly sound like Secret and Whisper
I enjoy like two songs from them.
The spelling error was lulzy.
don't care for it
what is this abomination?
band blows. especially the clean vocalist.
i liked it.
sounds like a bunch of parts ripped off from other shitty bands and put together... I can see how sixteen year olds would like this though.
The clean vocals were well-done, it just sounds so sugary it's kind of sickening. And the synths were really cheesy.
That was easily their best song to date imo.
But I'm with bloc, we've both always enjoyed this band XD
Only good bit was the start, the rest is pretty awful.
This band needs to die...
god this is shite
Someone shoot the clean vocalist, and while you're at it pick up a minigun and go wild on the entire synthcore genre.
Digging: Grouper - Ruins
Not digging this at all. Neither of their previous stuff. Should Quit. Ahd what about theirs stupid tour name lawl.

Bin Laden 'Endorsed' Book Storms US Sales Charts
After issuing new threats to attack the US and calls for President George Bush to withdraw American troops from Iraq, Bin Laden then found time to "plug" Mr Blum's book. "If Bush decides to carry on with his lies and oppression, it would be useful for you to read the book Rogue State," he announced in his message relayed to a potential audience of billions via Arab satellite television.
Oprah Winfrey's book club has boosted the careers of many an author, but in Osama bin Laden she may have an unlikely new rival. A book by an obscure American historian has shot into US best-seller lists after the elusive leader of al-Qa'ida endorsed it in an audio message aired last week.
Mr Blum is a long-standing and fierce critic of the White House, laying scorn on Mr Bush and his predecessor, Bill Clinton. His 320-page book tears to pieces US foreign policy and its opening line reads: "Washington's war on terror is as doomed to failure as its war on drugs has been."
Mr Blum has described the attacks on 11 September as "an understandable retaliation against US foreign policy", stopping short of calling that ajustification.
Once an employee of the State Department until his career was cut short after he led demonstrations against the Vietnam War, Mr Blum, 72, has been taken aback by his sudden celebrity. News networks in the US are clamouring to interview him. "The Washington Post refuses to publish my letters, but now they are coming to my house," he told reporters.
Talking to a New York radio station, he said most interviewers have pressed him to reject Bin Laden's endorsement but he says he has no qualms about being promoted by the world's most wanted man. Mr Blum said: "I happen to share with Osama bin Laden a certain view of US foreign policy, and this is great if more people read my book."

WASHINGTON (AP) — A new poll shows most Americans don't believe Medicare and Social Security have to be cut to balance the federal budget.
The Associated Press-GfK poll shows that arguments for overhauling middle-class benefit programs to pare government debt have failed to sway the public.
In the poll, 54 percent said it's possible to balance the budget without cutting Medicare, and 59 percent said the same about Social Security. Democrats and political independents were far more likely than Republicans to say that neither program will have to be cut.
Overall, 70 percent said Social Security is "extremely" or "very" important to their financial security in retirement, and 72 percent said so for Medicare.
The debate about retirement programs is unlikely to be resolved before next year's elections.

Access "Seeking nirvana: virtualisation without security risk"
This article is part of the December 2012 issue of Realise the benefits of virtualisation in safety
Cost pressures and the rise of cloud computing have led many businesses to turn to lower-cost virtual environments on premise and in the cloud, but a lack of expertise and experience may be exposing these organisations to unnecessary security risk. Researchers and other members of the security industry believe that in addition to a general lack of understanding about how virtual environments work, the fact that the business is so focused on performance and cost, often means security is either overlooked or tagged on only at the end. According to Forrester security and risk analyst Andrew Rose, many IT professionals think a virtual server is just the same as a physical one, even though the risks are different. As organisations seek the economic benefits of virtualising their IT environments, servers are no longer individual pieces of equipment that are hard-wired into carefully controlled physical networks. Instead, they are complex software instances running on top of virtual networks and connecting to increasingly virtualised storage layers, which means ... Access >>>

From: El Paso, TX
Region: Southwest
Topic: Privacy Screening
Title: FAST GROWING PRIVACY PLANTS IN EL PASO, TEXAS
Answered by: Mike Tomme
QUESTION:Hello, First, I am totally ignorant of plants,trees planting,etc. However, I just moved to El Paso, Tx and find every home is surrounded by these hideous rock walls, which aren't nearly tall enough to serve a real purpose. Not to mention the "yard" is only about 10x10. My neighor and I should just share a patio since we have such a clear view. I need privacy fast! A fast growing hedge,bush,shade tree which doesn't atract birds/insects and that can be planted close to that wall!! Thanks!
First of all, Mr. Smarty Plants only recommends native plants. Fast, growing, El Paso and native plant do not go together. Desert plants grow slowly or grow very quickly when there's moisture available, then go dormant. Secondly, any plant that doesn't attract birds or insects must be so obnoxious that you wouldn't want to be around it either.
I think the solution to your problem is better solved architecturally (raise the wall or put up a fabric screen). Alternatively, you can make friends with your neighbor and take a lesson from the plants you see growing around El Paso - adapt to your environment.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Korean War vets gather to mark anniversary of ceasefire
The forgotten war will not be forgotten this afternoon as Korean War veterans gather to mark the 60th anniversary of the ceasefire.
Vets, joined by senior officers, Mayor Sam Katz and Lt. Gov. Philip Lee will hold a candlelight service today at 4 p.m. at Brookside Cemetery.
The public can also take a tour of the cemetery's field of honour where the Korean War memorial stands and where 11,000 service men and women are buried. The bus tour begins at 1 p.m. just inside the cemetery gates and buses will run continuously until 4 p.m.
The three-year Korean War ended July 27, 1953, after 516 Canadians had lost their lives.
Winnipeg's Kapyong Barracks gets its name from a 1951 battle where Canadian and Australian battalions, badly outmanned, managed to push back Chinese forces seeking a route through the Kapyong Valley and on to Seoul.

Smoking laws in Oklahoma City, Tulsa are weak compared to many major U.S. cities
The CDC report outlined 20 cities not covered by either local or state comprehensive smoke-free laws. The CDC considers a smoke-free law to be comprehensive if it prohibits smoking in all indoor areas — private workplaces, restaurants and bars — with no exceptions, according to the report.
Although 14 of the cities have a smoke-free local or state provision in place in some regards, six cities have nothing in place — Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Los Angeles, Fresno, Calif., Virginia Beach, Va., and Atlanta, according to the report.
Smoking is known to harm nearly every organ of the body, according to the CDC. There is no "risk-free" level of contact with secondhand smoke either — even brief exposure can be harmful to health, federal health officials say.
Thursday, board members of the Oklahoma Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust passed a resolution urging Oklahoma lawmakers to either repeal the clause in Oklahoma's smoking law that prohibits local governments from adopting smoke-free workplace ordinances or enact a statewide law regarding smoking in workplaces.
Trust executive director Tracey Strader said there's no reason Oklahoma shouldn't pursue stricter smoking laws.
Changing the law isn't about telling people what they can and can't do, she said. It's about considering the rights of nonsmokers, whether that be people who work at or visit places where smoking is allowed, she said.
"People are sick, people are dying, and we know what works to prevent it," she said.

The USAID TB Program South Africa recently supported two events hosted by the Department of Health aimed at reaching key sectors of society in the fight against tuberculosis.
The first event, 'HTC Revitalisation Launch and Cancer Awareness' targeted traditional leaders and politicians and was held November 1 in North West Province. Among the featured speakers was North West Member of the Executive Council (MEC) for Health, Dr. Magome Masike, who urged leaders to be tested for HIV and screened for TB at least once per year. By doing so, he said, he would be helping the government to combat TB and HIV by serving as examples of healthy behavior for their respective communities.
A representative of traditional leaders said they regarded themselves as part of the Department of Health and were therefore were equal partners in promoting healthy living.
The second health event took place at Bree Taxi Rank in Johannesburg and was hosted in collaboration with the Department of Health and stakeholders from the taxi industry. Approximately 5000 taxi drivers attended. October was National Transport Month, which served as an opportunity to highlight the role taxi drivers can play in delivering healthy messages regarding TB and HIV to the people they transport every day. The keynote speaker, Gauteng MEC for Transport Dr. Ismail Vadi, said that industry engagement in healthy living must extend beyond Transport Month to the rest of the year.

Demi and Ashton: More Bombshells to Come?
After weeks of rumor-fueled fears that their marriage was on the rocks, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore showed a united front on Thursday when they spoke together at the Clinton Global Initiative. However, sources tell me that the worst is yet to come.
"There is a lot more information to come out," an insider familiar with the situation tells me. "If the two of them think this is all going to go away now that they have been seen together in public, they are mistaken. The floodgates have been opened."
Kutcher and Moore, who are celebrating their fifth anniversary TODAY, refused to address the cheating rumors when they spoke at the Real Men campaign against sex slavery and made sure reporters were kept far away.
"This was the perfect photo op for Demi and Ashton," a media consultant tells me. "They looked great standing together united as a couple. One picture is worth a thousand words. Plus, at the same time they were supporting a noble cause. It certainly wasn't the place where anyone would dare ask them about personal problems."
Yet, none of this is going to stop Star magazine from continuing to investigate the story they broke.
"This story is generating huge buzz and it's only getting bigger," an editor at the magazine tells me. "Now, Demi is on the cover of PEOPLE because of this scandal. If the sales numbers are good on Monday for Star and PEOPLE, you can bet more dirt will be dug up."

Former MLB pitcher Gonzalez killed by lightning strike
CARACAS, Venezuela -- Former major league pitcher Geremi Gonzalez, who won 11 games for the Chicago Cubs in 1997, was killed by a lightning strike in his native Venezuela on Sunday. He was 33.
Emergency management official Herman Bracho said Monday that Gonzalez was struck by lightning at a beach.
On Monday, Cubs general manager Jim Hendry spoke fondly of Gonzalez.
"The Chicago Cubs are very saddened today to learn of Geremi Gonzalez's sudden passing. Geremi began his career as a Cub, leading our pitching staff with 11 wins as a rookie in 1997 and, despite an arm injury, helping the club early in the season a year later to an eventual postseason appearance. The organization sends its heartfelt condolences to his family."
Gonzalez pitched for five major league teams from 1997-2006. The right-hander appeared in 131 games with 83 starts, compiling a 30-35 record.
Gonzalez also played for the Tampa Bay Rays, Boston Red Sox, New York Mets and Milwaukee Brewers. He made a combined 24 appearances for the Mets and Brewers in his final major league season in 2006.
Gonzalez played for current Cubs manager Lou Piniella in Tampa Bay and was on the mound when Sammy Sosa's corked bat exploded in a game at Wrigley Field on June 3, 2003.
"That's a tragic thing," Piniella said. "He was a nice young man. He was a competitive kid, really good natured. It's a shame, it really is. I liked him a lot."
Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen, a fellow Venezuelan, expressed his feeling before a game in Cleveland.
"It's sad," Guillen said. "A lot of people are going to be shocked. He was a good man. He had a lot of ups and downs in his career. He was 33. It was so early in his life to die. I wish the best to his family. The news went around the country pretty fast."
Brewers manager Ned Yost expressed similar feelings.
"He was so much fun to be around. He was always happy, always smiling," Yost said. "He was a guy that could scare real easy and then horse laugh. He was just one of those guys that when he saw you, he always had a smile on his face."
The Toronto Blue Jays released him during spring training last year. Gonzalez then moved to Japan and pitched in five games for the Yomiuri Giants.

In 1994, guitarists Joe Pass and Roy Clark got together and recorded an album of Hank Williams songs. They recorded in Hollywood, at Sage & Sound, and the session was produced by Ralph Jungheim, who conceived the idea for the country-jazz date. JazzWax reader and Joe Pass fan Uwe Zänisch of Berlin sent along a wonderful series of clips from the recording session. Other musicians in the studio were Joe Pass (rhythm-g) Jim Hughart (b) Colin Bailey (d). This was Pass' last studio recording. He died in May 1994.
