Oil prices continue to climb
The price of oil marched higher Friday with a positive report on hiring and ongoing concerns about the crisis in Egypt.
Benchmark crude for August delivery rose $1.98, or 2 percent, to finish at $103.22 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. That's the highest closing price since May 2, 2012.
Egypt is not an oil-producer, but its control of the Suez Canal, one of the world's busiest shipping lanes, gives it a crucial role in maintaining global energy supplies. For now, supplies are moving freely through the canal.
At the pump, the national average for a gallon of gas stayed at $3.48 for the third straight day. That's down 14 cents from a month ago and 14 cents higher than a year ago.

Mad Minute! (Christian Rock Band promo) - Today's Christian Videos
Embed church-ga-statesboro-church-in-the-boro 3029 views 2008-03-17T00:00:00 A few years ago a friend of mine, named Michael, came to me and asked me to take some promotional photos for him to highlight a Christian rock band that he was starting. The name, Mad Minute, was taken from the Viet Nam War era. He explained it to me this way, "Mad Minute was the slang used by the boys who were flown into the battle zone by helicopter. A mad minute was about all they had to get there, disembark, and take cover before being overcome by the enemy!" The band hasn't really solidified because the lead singer/organizer, Michael, moved across the country to go to college. Yet, I still thought the promo was pretty good, and maybe the LORD will use this promo to spark interest so I can get on the phone & call the boys "out-of-mothballs." "Hand-over-my-heart" Thanks to anyone out there who survived one or more "mad minutes"! You fought hard in a war that might best be called a "House of Mirrors," and you returned Home to shame from people who didn't understand... But I understand what my Dad lived before me, Always Revere the Men & Women who Fight to Keep this a Free Nation! I DO! I SALUTE YOU!!!! :)

Wiesberger captures Austrian Open
ATZENBRUGG, Austria (AP)
Bernd Wiesberger had a 7-under 65 to win the Austrian Open by three strokes on Saturday for his second European Tour title.
LEADERBOARDHow did your favorite golfer fare? Visit our European Tour leaderboard.
The Austrian, who was four strokes off the lead going into the final round, finished with an overall 19-under 269. Shane Lowry (66) of Ireland and Thomas Levet (68) of France tied for second.
Wiesberger won the Ballantine's Championship in April.
"It's fantastic," Wiesberger said. "My first win in Korea was great. But this victory in front of my home crowd can only be topped by winning a major."
Overnight leader Thorbjorn Olesen dropped to fifth place after the Dane shot 74 with three bogeys on the back nine.
Wiesberger had four birdies in five holes around the turn. His tee shot at the 17th hit a tree and bounced to leave him in a good position to get onto the green. At the 18th, he made a 50-foot putt on the final hole.
Wiesberger became the third player to win more than one European Tour event this season, along with South Africans Branden Grace and Louis Oosthuizen.
He is the second Austrian winner of the event after Markus Brier in 2006.

And Now My Love (French: Toute une vie), (Released as 'A Whole Lifetime' in Australia) is a film released in 1974 by French writer/director Claude Lelouch, starring Marthe Keller, André Dussollier, Charles Denner, and Charles Gérard.
And Now My Love was nominated for the Best Original Screenplay Academy Award in 1975. The film was also screened at the 1974 Cannes Film Festival, but wasn't entered into the main competition.[1]
The film tells the story of several generations of family members and the love affairs they experience. The story begins in the pre-World War I era, proceeding through modern-day New York City.
Lelouch used the principle of Simultaneous Bilingual Film Production in making this film: for each camera setup, the actors performed twice (in English and in French), so that neither the French-language nor English-language prints are dubbed or subtitled.

The addition of camera in smart phone has led to adding important moments of life with the phone. So whenever we go, we click and save the moments in our SD card. Now sometime problems may come when accidentally photos get deleted.
Before knowing about how to recover them, let's learn a bit about SD card and its way of saving files. Smartphones are like small computer and Android are their OS. At the time of starting the phone, android scans for all the memory in the SD card and if it is not able to read some files (corrupt files) then move them into LOST.DIR.
What is LOST.DIR?
LOST.DIR is a system folder maintained by the OS. While the phones starts, Android OS places the recovered files in it. If OS is unable to understand a file, then it move the file to LOST.DIR. Normally files present in the LOST.DIR are recoverable. It can be considered as "Recycle bin" of the windows system.
Files may end up stored in LOST.DIR folder due to following reasons:
- Abruptly pulling out SD card from Android phone
- Interruptions while downloading files on Android device
- Sudden freezing of Android device operating system
- Switching off the device while some read-write process is carrying on
The files in the process of copying are also renamed.
How to recover files from LOST.DIR.
If the files present in the LOST.DIR are not recovered quickly and there are chances of losing them. So it advisable to recover them as fast as possible. If you don't want to recover any file, then you can delete the content of it also. It is safe to delete the LOST.DIR folder also to free the space in your phone. The OS will create an empty LOST.DIR in next phone start up.
Some useful software:
There are many useful software which anyone can get in top list of Google search to recover deleted files, however they are not freeware and user has to pay for them
Below are some software which may come as freeware and ease to use to recover the deleted files from SD card.
- Remo software.
- Recuva.
- ES file explorer.

MY "ADVENTURES N HAWAII" - October 2011 TRIP REPORT
ok.....so who has been to the Aloha state recently??
If so, what's your fav food over there?
Fav place to see and do & why???
Fav place to stay and why?
I am tempted to turn this into a trip report of sorts and am looking for things to see and do while I am over there over Halloween.popcorn::
thanks for any input -
I live in Hawaii. I'm answering for Oahu only. Let me now if you'll be visiting the neighbor islands as well.
Favorite food. I took this to mean restaurants. Fancy-Alan Wong's, Hawaiian-Ono Hawaiian, Casual-Big City Diner, Huge Splurge-La Mer (AAA 5 Diamond award winning restaurant).
Favorite attractions. Pearl Harbor, Missouri, and Museum of Flight - they're all together at the same place. Diamond Head hike. Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay.
Favorite hotel. Halekulani or the Royal Hawaiian. Both are on Waikiki beach.
Halloween in Waikiki is interesting, to say the least. People, mostly adults, and mostly tourists, parade in ALL kinds of costumes, or lack thereof.
My DH and I took our very first vacation (without kids) to Hawaii in October. I LOVED every minute of it, except leaving it.
We went to Oahu--so can't help with the other islands--yet!
Our favorite food was Giovanni's Shrimp truck on the North shore of Oahu. And Leonard's Masalas (sp). And Matsumotos Shave ice on the north shore.
Did not like Todai seafood buffet.
We stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. It was a huge complex and was at the far end of Waikiki Beach. It had one of the best beaches of all the hotels on that strip of land.
We rented a car for the 7 days we were there. We snorkeled at Hanauma Bay--the water was very cold (74 degrees). Spent most of our time on the North Shore playing in the big waves and watching the surfers. Don't miss Pearl Harbor and the Missouri. We walked to Diamond Head and then hiked it. It was our workout for the day. Don't miss this--start early in the day though.
The time change was hard for us. We never slept past 5:30 am. It was worth it though. We made the use of every available daylight hour.
On the circle drive around the island, every curve brought a new postcard
worthy view!!
We spent a week on Oahu last summer.
In addition to the above, we also enjoyed the Dole Pineapple Plantation (yes, they have Dole Whips), the Polynesian Cultural Center, and the Bishop Museum, which has a fascinating look at Hawaiian culture and heritage. When we were there, the Hawaiian Hall was under renovation, and I've heard it is even more spectacular now.
Our favorite restaurant was Roy's at Ko O'lina, with The Pineapple Room (an Alan Wong restaurant) in the Ala Moana shopping center a close second.
We rented a house on Ewa Beach, and also got a rental car. Very easy to drive around the island.
Have fun!
I have been to Oahu, Maui, Kauai and the Big Island. My favorite (and most recent) is Kauai. It is so lush and beautiful. Quiet and relaxing, but also tons of things to do. We snorkeled off the beach near our hotel in Poipu, also at Lydgate and Annini (sp?) Beach. Our favorite activity was ziplining with Outfitters Kauai in Koloa. Fun guides, great time on the zips, then a "water zip" into a beautiful, lush swimming hole and swim time at the end.
We also enjoyed renting bikes and biking along the beach near Kapaa. There is a paved trail, I think it's only about 5 miles long now, but they are in the process of extending it. And Tubing the Ditch with Kauai Backcountry Adventures, though the swimming hole at the end of that was was awfully murky and buggy. No one went in.
If you visit Kauai, you have to see the Napali Coast. We went by boat with Liko Kauai Cruises out of the small boat harbor on the south shore. The small boat harbor is closer to the Napali Coast than Port Allen, where most boats leave from, so it takes less time to get to the awesome scenery. They were great, and their boat is small enough to enter some of the sea caves, though the water was too rough to get in the day we did it. October is a tranisition month when the seas are starting to get rougher. They say it's really better to leave from the North Shore to see the Napali Coast, but it's usually too rough by October and the North Shore companies have shut down for the winter. You can also see the Napali Coast by helicopter or small plane, which is awfully expensive, but I think might be worth it next time around.
Favorite restaurant was Plantation Garden (in Kiahuna Plantation) for dinner. Absolultely delicious! It was our only fine dining experience, since we were with the kids, mostly we hit the kitschy places, and also enjoyed Duke's Canoe Club and Keoki's Paradise. Joe's on the Green was great for breakfast.
For lots of great Hawaii info, go to TripAdvisor. They have lots of reviews, a general Hawaii forum as well as forums for the different islands, and lots of helpful people who visit as often as some of us visit Disney!
As I type it is a balmy 29 degrees in Chicago and you are all making me very jealous!
Having visited all of the islands our favorite is still Oahu. So much to see and do. In addition to what is mentioned above make time to see Henry Kapono play Dukes on Sunday, watch a canoe race if possible and for the best food ever try Side Street Cafe. Oh, and you can swim with the sharks on the North Shore - very exciting!
We visited Hawaii last summer for 3 weeks - 1 week Oahu, 1 week Big Island, 1 week Maui. We stayed in timeshare exchanges, so that probably won't help you much.
Highlights include:
Oahu - Iolani Palace and Bishop Museum, Pearl Harbor, Punchbowl Cemetary, Aloha Stadium swapmeet, snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, day trip to the North Shore & Dole Plantation, Polynesian Cultural Center and more (we like to keep busy).
Big Island - this was our favorite! Volcano National Park, helicopter tour over active volcano, Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden, Akaka Falls, snorkel boat trip to Kealakekua Bay (Sea Paradise), Mauna Kea Summit Tour (sunset at top of volcano, then star-gazing), horseback ride in Waipio Valley, Place of Refuge & coffe farm tour. This week was very busy, but we wouldn't change a thing!
Maui - Haleakala Bike Tour (bike 22 miles down volcano at sunrise!), Old Lahaina Luau, Road to Hana, sunset cocktail cruise. More time for beach and golf.
The husbands golfed on each island, we had some beach time and did some shopping. It was the trip of a lifetime! We tried to eat at local places and sampled every type of food we could!
For car rental we used discounthawaiicarrental.com - best prices and very easy!
We were on Oahu for about a week this past July for my DD's trip with Make A Wish. We stayed in the Hyatt on Waikiki Beach. It was a walk across the street to the beach. :) You can get free beach chairs and towels at the pool to use on the beach. On Fridays, they have "Aloha Friday" in the atrium. Free crafts, food, music and a show. If I remember correctly, it lasted about 1 1/2-2 hours.
We spent the first day there at Pearl Harbor seeing the Memorial. Everyone enjoyed that. She also did a dolphin encounter with Dolphin Quest at the Kahala Hotel & Resort (now that's a hotel that I would have LOVED to have stayed at:thumbsup2).
We also snorkeled at Hanauma Bay (which was my favorite thing) and drove to the North Shore to Laniakea Beach to see the giant sea turtles come on shore.
We went back to Pearl Harbor so that DH, DD#1 and DD#2 could go on the tour of the USS MO. Since DD#3 uses a wheelchair and it wasn't very accessible for her, I stayed with her and hung out at Pearl Harbor.
DD#2 took a surf lesson on Waikiki Beach and loved it.
We went to Dole but didn't do the train tour. It was interesting to walk around and see all of the different types of pineapples. We enjoyed a Dole Whip while DD#2 enjoyed chili-cheese fries since she doesn't like pineapple. ;)
We ate at a little pub type place in the basement of the Hyatt. I can't remember the name but it was very reasonable and the food was good.
We also ate at a 50's diner place a block or two from the Hyatt that was way over priced for food that was just OK.
We went to a luau at Paradise Cove. It was OK but the food was so far from the show and hard to push DD's wheelchair in the sand that we never went back for seconds. The bus ride was also pretty long.
We had a van for the week and I'm very glad that we took a GPS with us. Coming from the Chicago area, we're used to traffic but the names of the roads all looked alike to us. Lots of one-way streets as well so it made it much easier to get around.
I'd go back in an heartbeat if I could.
It"s official!
October 28th thru Nov4th I will be in Hawaii:woohoo:.
Pre-trippe report forthcoming:yay:.
Ok....just got one question for all of ya & it's about food that's native to Hawaii.
I have tried Icka before (not bad) - but......
has anyone else tried a food that's native to Hawaii??
If so, what would you suggest??
2nd ?: What kind of Halloween activities does the island of Maui going on normally during that time of year??
Anywho -
:yay:IT'S OAHU & MAUI over 8 days in October :yay:
C everyone Sunday with more info.....
I've been to all the islands, but I like Maui the best.
The absolute BEST breakfast in Maui is the Gazebo restaurant. It is a little hard to find, and is very small, but I still dream about their white chocolate macadamia nut pancakes. They are insanely good! Plus, you are looking at a spectacular view while eating. You are actually in a small gazebo.
The best, most romantic restaurant for dinner is Kimo's. It is outdoors, right on the ocean, with spectacular views and even better food. The tables for two are right on the edge of the deck, and both chairs face the ocean. We always eat there at least twice every visit. Also, I am one who can usually take or leave most fish, but their fresh fish prepared a million different ways is worth the 9 hour flight alone! We used to like the Hula Grill, but the last time we ate there it was horrible, bordering on inedible, and I am not one who is very picky. I'm not sure what happened there...
Also, if you are tired of spending $150 a night or more on dinners, there is an unbelievable burger place in downtown Lahaina. It is called the Fat Cat Grill or something like that. HUGE burgers, and lots of different, unique options. I think they were around $12 a piece which is cheap for Hawaii. Plus, it is on an upstairs deck overlooking the main drag in Lahaina so the people watching is stellar!
One more tip--buy an Entertainment book for Hawaii! Usually they go down to about $10 around March or April with free shipping on their website. There are tons of buy one get one free dinner options, plus lots of coupons for parasailing, tours, etc. It was more than worth the money even if you only used it once or twice. :)
I HIGHLY recommend getting the Maui Revealed and Hawaii Revealed books. Tons of great information, and it is written by a local so he tells you all the great little places that don't make the other travel books. That's how we found all these spectacular little beaches. We went to a different one every day, even though our hotel was beachfront. Have a great trip!
We've eaten just about everywhere, so if you have any other questions, let me know!
I've been to several of the islands and also like to vacation in Maui the most; in fact we are considering heading over there in a few weeks again.
My favorite place to eat is Sansei in Kapalua. Amazing sushi.
My DS15 is going to Hawaii (Oahu) with his HS band in November 2011, over Thanksgiving week. They are playing in the Waikiki Holiday Parade and are the honor band for the 70th anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
We (my DH and I) are trying to figure out if we can afford to go with our DS11 while the band is out there. As it is, it is going to cost about $2500 to send DS15.
Does anyone have any ideas on how much it might cost for a family of three to fly from PA and stay for 6 nights? I prefer something on Waikiki and not in the center of the city. Going as a tagalong with the band (doing everything the band does) is estimated at about $8000 for the three of us. That seems high to me!
We ate a really nice dinner every other night, and pizza or sandwiches every other night. We did not go out for big breakfasts or lunches either, but did do some touristy stuff that cost money (Pearl Harbor, Polynesian Cultural Village, etc). We spent over $10,000 even without airfare. I still don't know how that happened since we really didn't do everything first class. I think it was the food that killed us. Whatever you think things will cost you there, double it.
Here's an example of what it cost for a "cheap" breakfast at the Hilton Waikoloa.
Keep in mind this was 5 years ago-- a cup of plain old coffee with NO refills was $4.00. A plain chocolate donut was $3.00. Those little half-pint containers of milk were $3.00 each, and those little one-serving boxes of cereal were $3.75. (YES I remember this, probably because I am still traumatized!). Of course one of those little boxes of cereal did not fill up my kids. We ended up spending close to $50 on a "cheap" breakfast every day.
Hawaii is expensive. We have cheap airfare, coming from California. Our last vacation, 4 years ago, was about $14,000. If you are going to stay in a hotel and eat out, I'd be thrilled with an $8000 total.
White chocolate macadamia nut pancakes - oh my!
.....just put in for my spa retreat @ the Hyatt for November 4th while in Maui:goodvibes.
Those pancakes sound good! thank you for the tip.:thumbsup2.
Fat Cat Grill eh? Gotta check out that place as well - thanks!
Q: those two books you listed above - can those be ordered via Amazon.com??

Melissa has been singing all of her life. She began her vocal training at a very cute age, learning every song she heard, and passionately performing them for friends and family. She later went on to pursue a formal education in Classical Vocal Performance and Jazz technique from California State University, Los Angeles. While completing her Bachelors degree, Melissa was fortunate to have worked with many established artists, bands and producers of various styles, including jazz, blues, rock, pop, soul and funk. These collaborations have allowed her to hone her own voice and successfully pursue professional work.
Melissa has enjoyed the opportunity of lead local elementary school music programs, and has most recently expanded her private vocal studio Sing Your BEST Self to include skills training in piano, music theory and ear training.
Melissa specializes in LIVE improvisational performance, and can be seen performing under a stage name around the Ventura County and Los Angeles areas. Additionally, She is an accomplished songwriter, and has lent her voice to many recording projects, art collaborations, as well as, T.V. and Film.
*** Lesson Details ***
I thoroughly enjoy sharing what I've learned about music. In my voice studio, students will master the fundamentals of the voice to ensure natural, healthy singing. In my teaching approach, I seek to provide a complete experience, in which, standard vocal technique is taught with the whole singer in mind, with specific attention to the individual students needs and goals.
Singing should be enjoyable for the singer as well as the listener. Helping students to experience that joy is my intention. Music lessons are fun, energetic, and productive. You will become an empowered musician and learn to Sing Your BEST Self!
*** Studio Equipment ***
recording studio/performance space: students of all ages, keyboard, mirror, stools, dry erase board
*** Travel Equipment ***
Onsight lessons are at teacher's discretion and are reserved for advanced students, and pre-arranged coaching sessions related to student learning goals.
*** Specialties ***
I am classically trained singer and teach from that method. I perform Jazz/ blues, soul/ funk and can teach these styles with applied pedagogy. I perform often and would also enjoy coaching in more modern styles of music that require microphone and stage technique. Additionally, hands on vocal recording technique would be of interest to me.
Originally from Chicago, I attended Chicago Musical College for 2 years before moving to Calif. and receiving my B.A. in music from Cal. State Northridge. I also have an M.A. in Education from there. I have been a band director in public schools for over 40 years. My bands have won over 50 1st place awards in music competitions. I have been playing keyboard professionally since the age of 14. I truly enjoy working with both kids and adults on a one on one basis, and provide a relaxed and friendly, yet goal-oriented experience.
*** Lesson Details ***
In each lesson,students will work on technique, music theory, and learn pieces (both from the method book and from supplementary material). I choose material for each student to use based on age, ability, and interest. I don't use a "one size fits all" curriculum. Although lessons are relaxed, I do expect students to do their part and work on the assigned materials at home. In addition,I enjoy playing along with students as soon as possible.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Music Room: upright piano, chair, sports memorabilia, room for parents to sit in on lesson
*** Travel Equipment ***
I expect students to provide instrument (except piano) and music (which I would select)

Can teach any school band instrument and keyboard
Hi! My name is Christopher, or Chris for short. I am a composer, arranger, pianist, vocalist, and private tutor. I have taught private lessons in classical and contemporary piano performance, vocal performance, guitar performance, music theory, and musicianship to local students for the past 3 years. I currently attend CSUN's school of music where I am a year away from obtaining my Bachelor's of Music in Composition. My other experience includes teaching Confirmation classes to teenagers at St. Jude's church for 2 years, and teaching English to Japanese high school students through the Rotary Youth Exchange Program.
*** Lesson Details ***
My philosophy when it comes to doing anything with music is that it should be fun! Whether you're practicing a piece, playing with a band, writing something new, or even learning music theory, music is primarily about enjoying yourself and the others around you. The same is true of my lessons!
The best way to ensure that you enjoy yourself is to learn what you want to learn and play what you want to play. In addition to a standard curriculum, I want you to tell me what kind of music you're interested in and what kind of pieces you want to play! Do you love classic rock? Do you love pop? Blues? Jazz? Folk tunes? Opera? Or maybe you're a lover of the classical masters? Whatever the case may be, my number one goal is to make sure you're having fun while you develop your new talents.
I'm comfortable teaching students as young as 7 years of age, although I can teach even younger if they are especially well-behaved.
*** Studio Equipment ***
I am part of a local music studio in Oxnard that is equipped with everything we'll need for our lessons; however, students MUST at least have a small electric keyboard to practice on.

My name is Mike T. and I'm a professional musician of 10 years. I started playing piano at the age of 8 and studied classical, rock, pop, ragtime, blues, and impressionistic styles. At the age of 11 I got my first drum set and started jamming to bands like Metallica, Foo Fighters, Blink 182, NOFX, Black Sabbath and of course Led Zeppelin. By the time I reached the age of 21 I was a well established, mutli-instrumentalist.
I then attended Musician's Institute in Hollywood, CA where I honed my skills as a drummer and overall musician. I can now play all styles of drumming from Rock and Metal, to Latin and Jazz, to Reggae and Funk..you name it. I also studied Harmony & Theory, Ear Training, Technique, Sight Reading, and Performance. I graduated in 2010 and never looked back. I've toured the country with numerous rock bands, recorded many albums, and taught hundreds of students.
I've been teaching now for 5 years, and let me tell you I've seen it all. From a crying 5 year old who cant play a scale to a born natural with skills only a prodigy should possess. My main goal as a teacher is to intrigue my students with the art of music. I keep my lessons fun, interesting, and informative. Each one of my students receives a custom lesson plan based on their skill level and musical goals. I'm very personable with my students and always make sure they enjoy what they learn. I teach students how to play songs they desire as well as basic progressions and song structure. I also teach the importance of time keeping, technique, reading, and performance.
So if you're looking for a great teacher with a commitment to his students and a passion for the shaping musical minds look no further. I'm the teacher for you.
*** Lesson Details ***
I'm easy going and relaxed, yet strict when called for. I use all sorts of curriculum in my piano teaching, from beginner books to advanced classical pieces. I teach the importance of good technique, reading skills, rhythm, and improvisation. My goal for my piano students is to make them knowledgeable, skilled, and well-rounded individuals. With me as your teacher I can expand your musical mind and help you reach your goals.
For drums I teach basic grooves to complex rudiments and fills. I stress the importance of rhythm, groove, tone, technique, and reading charts in all of my lessons. You can pick out songs that you wanna learn and ill show you how to play them correctly. Drums are difficult for any person to pick up, but i make the process a while lot easier by catering to each student and pushing them to play their best. Practice makes perfect in this game.

On his new album, Tooth & Nail, the defiant practitioner of resistance put politics aside (and made them available as protest anthems for free download), in order to write songs with more heart. He recorded the album, his first since 2008, in five days and approached the process so quietly he didn't tell anyone he was even doing it. In the span of a work-week, Bragg emerged from the studio with a finished product made of empathy and optimism.Tell me how you got the "sherpa of heartbreak" nickname.There was a young woman on Twitter, talking about how she was getting over the break-up of a relationship, while listening to "Billy Bragg — the sherpa of heartbreak." That's a lovely thought. I like the idea of my songs doing the heavy emotional lifting for someone and helping them over the hill of heartbreak. I like that image. It set me off thinking that maybe I should be writing an album with more love songs on it, to remind people that that is one of my roles. I am the sherpa of heartbreak, if you need that kind of thing.Why was it so important to you that people remember you write love songs?Because I write topical songs and so few people write topical songs, so I've got a bit of a reputation for it, which is okay. I don't mind that. The problem is there are people who don't really know my stuff, who don't come to my gigs and don't listen to my records, who dismiss me as a political songwriter. That's something I have to be careful of. I have to do things that challenge people's perception of me. Shaking hands with the queen, for instance. People think just because you're a bit of a lefty, they can make a prototype of your political views. Things are more complicated than that. A lot of people hang around after my shows to shake my hand, why should I treat the queen any differently? I'm just trying to get people to understand that I know there's more to life than politics, that there are some things that are worth talking about even if we don't have answers. I'm trying to send people away from the gig and the record with a different perspective.Do you think that the idea of love is as important to your music as politics?I do, and there's other music that I've always been a huge fan of — soul music, country music, blues, folk — that were informing this album. They are really good vehicles for talking about deeper emotional issues.Why didn't you tell anyone you were in the studio?I didn't tell anyone from the record company or my management. I knew that if I told anyone I was going into the studio, that would set a number of hares running. And I didn't even know what I was going to come back with. I could have come back with the most expensive demos I've ever made, or I could have come back with the foundations of a record. That seemed more likely. Least likely of all seemed to be a whole record. And then gradually I started working out how to get it released.Is it true the album was recorded in five days?It is true, and you sound as surprised as I was when I came out with a complete album after five days. I didn't think it was possible but my dear friend and producer Joe Henry told me we could do it in five days, and sure enough, he proved himself right.Were you guys working 22 hours a day in those five days?We weren't actually. We were probably only working eight hours a day. By the Wednesday of that week, halfway in, we'd recorded ten songs. I was amazed, and became very excited about the prospect of having an entire album done if I could just write two more songs. I went to bed that night with a notepad and a pencil.And you didn't do any vocal retakes?Right. Normally I have to spend a lot of time trying to get my voice to do what I want it to do, but the last couple years my voice seems to have dropped a bit. Joe picked up on that, and encouraged me to sing in the moment and to not divorce what I was singing from the moment that the song was created in. That was powerful.Woody Guthrie is obviously someone who's been important to you, musically. You've spent a lot of time and several albums singing his songs. How did you choose "I Ain't Got No Home" to be the one Guthrie song on the album?I started singing it a couple of years ago because I felt it showed Woody was a great songwriter. Here's a song that's so contemporary — talking about people losing their homes to the banks, gamblers on the stock market making millions while ordinary working people can't make ends meet. All these issues resonated with me. And I thought Woody's song, particularly with the housing crisis that's come along with the economic crash, would remind people that a great songwriter wrote this song 75 years ago yet it sounds so contemporary. For the album I rearranged it. Woody's song was a bit jolly, and I wrote a more soulful tune. In doing that, I realized that I could sing lower than I had been doing before. It was the first song we recorded in the sessions, and it set the template for how we were going to record in a way that framed my voice.What was the last song you wrote at the end of the week you recorded?The very last song I wrote is the first song on the album, "January Song." I managed to get a brief passing reference to my mom in there, a mention of her dancing shoes. The album is in some ways a response to her passing, not as in "this is how I feel about what happened," but "I need to move on from this now, what am I going to do to move on from this?" Making the album became the thing that moved me on. There's obviously an emotional void when something like that happens. Making the album meant moving on.The album ends with a very optimistic song called "Tomorrow's Going To Be a Better Day." Do you think that's true?I do. That song is my response to the rise of snark on the internet, where cynicism seems to be the default position. Politics has changed hugely and the language that we use to talk about it has changed, too. In the last few years one of the things I've become sure about is that the enemy of all of us who want to make the world a better place is cynicism — not capitalism, not conservativism, but cynicism. If we really do want to make the world a better place, we have to overcome our own cynicism. And we do that by engaging, by getting on with the process. I wanted to write a song that expressed my commitment to fighting my own cynicism. That song does it for me. GET IT!

Allied Works Architecture: Clyfford Still Museum
The Clyfford Still Museum in Denver is a single-artist institution devoted to the life and work of one of the 20th century's most influential and enigmatic painters. Designed by Allied Works Architecture, the building is specifically crafted to present Still's canvasses, and equally, to resonate with the light and landscape of the high prairie and the evolving urban district it inhabits. The firm's second book, Allied Works Architecture / Clyfford Still Museum reveals the building's essential character and evolution through a series of essays, models, drawings, details and photographs. On Thursday, April 11th, Allied Works' founder and design principal Brad Cloepfil will lead a conversation about the ideas and inspiration that led to the museum's design, and the firm's efforts to realize a work of architecture that has been hailed as one of the finest art-viewing experiences anywhere.

Toledo is nearing point of no return
As of 11:45 August 16, the following crimes have been committed in Toledo:
~Anthony Horton was badly beaten on Buckingham Street
~Hakeem Johnson was shot on Nevada Street
~A teenager was shot on Chestnut and Noble Streets
~Tyrell Jones was shot on Franklin Street and Woodruff Avenue
There was a time in the City's history, before undesirables inhabited many of its neighborhoods, that just one of these occurrences in the course of a day would be big news. Now it's met with a yawn.
What happened? In the 50s, 60s, and 70s, Toledo was a manufacturing hub where people were able to get secure factory jobs with just a high school diploma. The City attracted low/no-skill workers from lower-class backgrounds who didn't possess any burning desire to better themselves--just to get a paycheck and head to the bar after work.

TX Gov Rick Perry Indicted On 2 Felony Corruption Charges
"A Travis County grand jury Friday indicted Gov. Rick Perry on two charges related to his effort last year to force District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg to resign after her drunken driving arrest.
Grand jurors charged Perry, 64, with abuse of official capacity, a first-degree felony, and coercion of a public servant, a third-degree felony. The first charge carries a punishment of 5-99 years and a fine of up to $10,000. The second charge is punishable by 2-10 years and a fine of up to $10,000.
The indictment stems from Perry's threat last summer to withhold $7.5 million in state money from Lehmberg's office unless she step down – a threat he later carried out by vetoing an appropriation in the state budget."

And this is the group that Sharpton and a lot of people in black communities rally with. Oh! and one more thing, some were saying they were looting in St Louis on behalf of Michael Brown. Ok, I get it, lets destroy our community because we have what we feel is an excuse now to do it.

If the ratio of Black residents over White residents in the 60%-30% range, why did the White Republican run UNOPPOSED? Maybe this is why. I was a poll observer in the 2008 general election. What I saw was AMAZING! I saw at least 100 folks(after that I quit watching the phenomenon), of every age and persuasion, asking poll workers how to vote for Obama, and Obama only. When the helpers explained how to do that, they pointed out all the other important issues being presented, many of the voters things like "fcck that B-S, I'm not voting for ANYTHING other than Obama."

Something Clearly Missing In This Case!
I've been watching all the liberal shows today. Listening to the witnesses, some who were only a few feet away from the scene, I finally figured out what is missing here. The N-Word! Nobody I heard used it. Nobody. Since everybody knows that when a Black Person is about to talk to a White Person/Cop, the first thing the White Person/Cop does, is to start a conversation saying "N-Word this---N-Word that", talking AT people instead of TO them, and so on.

Deadline passes
Michigan's inept union leadership missed the July 7th deadline to get a referendum on the November ballot to permanently repeal the state's right to work law. You would have thought that with the rep of being home to the unions, and a union state that they could have gotten the required 322,609 signatures but they didn't. They got zero, they rolled over and played dead.

NRCC busted for making fake websites
The National Republican Campaign Committee has created fake news sites about House candidates, presumably to take advantage of readers who don't pay close attention to what news sources they read, National Journal reported.
Earlier this year, the NRCC got in some trouble for creating deceptive fake campaign sites for Democrats that ask people to contribute in order to help "defeat" the candidate.
Teacher Fired Over Namecalling Her Students, Might Be Reinstated
I'm betting she will be rehired. I don't have a dog in this fight, but the issue is still, did she REALLY do anything worthy of being fired over? In a union setting, the grievance procedure has to be followed, and one cannot skip steps, which seems to have happened here.
