About Ann Lawrenson
John and I first visited Luz in 1982 and fell in love with it and we visited many times so in 2006 we decided to purchase our apartment in Luz as we love the friendly welcome you get from all the great restaurants and bars and the lovely sandy beach.
I am an accountant John is a retired business owner
Ann Lawrenson purchased this apartment in 2006
Why Ann Lawrenson chose Luz
We chose this first floor apartment at Cristaluz
because of the great views from all the good sized rooms and the wonderful view of the sea and black rock from the balcony as the apartment is an end one the apartment has 2 sets of patio doors which makes the apartment lovely and bright. We also chose this apartment because it had 2 bathrooms and a large fully fitted kitchen.
What makes this apartment unique
As I love swimming the added benefit was the heated swimming pool with sun bed terrace and gardens,which is for the private use of the 15 apartments, also the apartment is ideally situated in the centre of the village therefore it is close to the beach and the restaurants bars and supermarkets. As we use this apartment as a second home it has all the amenities you will require.
Guestbook comments from the owner
The apartment was wonderfull and more than lived up to its description. It was spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and air conditioning was available in the living area and both bedrooms.
The Balcony was superb overlooking the quiet pool and facing out to sea.
The excellent Bapista Supermarket was just 2 mins walk away and the beach a little further on.
Praia da Luz is an excellent resort, quite with loads of eating places and close to other great resorts such as Lagos Burgau and Salema.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and would recommend the apartment without hesitation. It was so superior to your average holiday let

Collaborative Divorce Bill Cleared by Committee, Heads to Full N.J. Senate
What's being said
I don't understand why this law is needed. Collaborative law has existed for years. Any divorcing spouses are free to use colaborative law lawyers right now. What will be different after this law is passed?
In fact, cooperative divorcing spouses are free to get divorced with no lawyers. Why pay any lawyers at all (except, perhaps, for a review of the proposed settlement agreement before it is finalized).
But, divorcing spouses CAN'T cooperate. That's why they're getting divorced. At least one of them had unrealistic expectations of the marriage, thinks she is still an attractive twenty-something year-old, and expects her ex-spouse to drop dead, drop out of her life, but keep sending the checks.
What is really needed is the Equal Rights Amendment. Women will never be truly "equal" until men have at home -- and in family court -- the equality that women seek in the workplace.
Not what I would try to pass. It still requires attorneys to work out the details. Attorneys tend to lead to arguments and costs. Additionally, there is nothing in this bill related to shared parenting or collaborative parenting. The other issue is that the law makes no mention of what it really costs to raise children. In NJ as in many other states, after a divorce parents may be required to pay college expenses. In an intact family, there is no requirement to pay for college or living expenses after a child reaches majority.
There is no mention about what happens when a child is alienated from a parent. To prevent alienation, there should be penalties associated with child support. Possibly drop it to the same amount that New Jersey pays to parents for children on public assistance? In many instances, the best interest of a child is to have two parents involved in his/her day to day activities. This does not happen - The system is broken, and has been broken for years.

BOSTON — A record sixth consecutive U.S. ice dance title. A personal best at the national championships, with the highest score possible for their free skate routine.
And, most importantly, an all-but certain second consecutive trip to the Olympics for Charlie White and Meryl Davis.
The reigning Winter Games silver medalists danced their way to victory at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships on Saturday to win their sixth national title — one more than the record five they had shared with American ice dance pioneers Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto.
"Coming into this competition, there was so secret we were going after that sixth title, the sixth record-breaking title," Davis said. "It's such an honor for us."
Earlier, hometown favorites Simon Shnapir and Marissa Castelli won the pairs championship. The women's free skate was scheduled for later Saturday, with the men's long program Sunday.
The Olympics will also be a homecoming for Shnapir, who was born in Russia. He gleefully said "We're going to Sochi" in Russian when it was announced that he and Castelli were on the team. They will be joined by runners-up Felicia Zhang and Nathan Bartholomay.
The U.S. has three spots in ice dancing. Madison Chock and Evan Bates, and Maia Shibutani and Alex Shibutani were picked to accompany White and Davice. The men's team will be announced Sunday night after the free skate.
Davis and White, the reigning world champs, are the Americans' best — and perhaps only — hope for a figure skating gold medal. They won silver in Vancouver, and after four years spent establishing themselves as tops in the world, their chance to move up one step on the podium is finally here.
"Obviously we're going into these games with very high expectations," White said. "We've had a lot of great momentum over the last four years since the 2010 Games. We feel like we've put ourselves in a really great position to come home with a gold medal."
With Davis' shaggy, blonde mop of hair whirling around the ice and White's tied back by a tiara, the world champions gave an energetic and emotional routine to "Sheherazade" by the Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. They finished with 200.19 points — their most ever at nationals — thanks to a 119.50 that was a perfect score for the elements in their free skate.
"With the Olympics in the season, it really ups the ante," White said. "What a great time to be an American ice dancer."
Bates and Chock were second with 181.44 points and siblings Maia and Alex Shibutani, with 170.44 points, were third.
"I feel like rock stars," Alex Shibutani said.
After showing up to a mid-week news conference in a Boston Bruins T-shirt and ski cap, Shnapir turned to a Saville Row-style shirt and tie — accessorized by a gun holster — for a James Bond-themed routine with Castelli that earned them the pairs title.
"I grabbed her hand and I said, 'Let's just stay out here for a second and enjoy this moment,'" Shnapir, of nearby Sudbury, said after the victory put them in position for a spot on the U.S. Olympic team. "Who knows if we'll ever have an opportunity like this again?"
Skating to the music from "Skyfall," Castelli and Shnapir totaled 205.71 points to protect the lead they built with the top performance Thursday in the short program.
"Right now we're just still in shock ourselves," said Castelli, of Cranston, R.I. "We're just trying to process everything."
Felicia Zhang and Nathan Bartholomay finished second with 201.72 points. Caydee Denney and John Coughlin moved up to third, with 201.43, after receiving the highest score in Saturday's free skate.
"We didn't leave anything on the table. We skated just as hard and as passionate as we could," Bartholomay said. "We're both just completely on Cloud 9 right now. We are aware that second place is not locked in. But we gave it everything we had against some tremendous competition."
Skating in front of their home crowd on the rink the Bruins call home, Shnapir tossed Castelli high into the air for a triple twist and then threw her into a high-point value quad salchow that she finished with a fall — their only major mistake of the routine. He also did a triple toe loop when she went around twice, costing them some points.
They were shaken, but nor stirred.
"We left some points on the table, but we're really thrilled with the result here," Shnapir said, adding that they did not consider ditching the quad. "There really wasn't a decision. We'd been doing it all year. ... We don't make any changes last minute."
When they finished at the center of the rink where their hometown Bruins play, Shnapir struck the Bond pose: standing sideways with his hands up, ready to turn and fire. The crowd showered them with appreciation and the judges did the same, handing them scores of 132.58 for the free skate — the third best on the day, but good enough to protect their lead.
That's because they finished the short program more than six points ahead of the second-place Zhang and Bartholomay. The 2013 third-place finishers skated a clean program and earned 135.22 points to a mistake-free "Les Miserable" routine that brought the crowd to its feet.
Denney and Coughlin, skating to "Phantom of the Opera," earned the highest score of the day with 136.03. The 2012 champions sat out last year because he had hip surgery.
After years of narrow pairs fields, this year's competition was deeper, with a half-dozen teams capable of reaching the podium at nationals.

Arizona Cardinals
Rod Graves' statement upon being relieved of duties
I am very grateful to Michael Bidwill, to his family, to the players and to the staff of the Arizona Cardinals for the opportunity to serve the organization. Working with talented others to build and enhance our brand over the past 16 years has been an awesome and totally enriching experience. It has been the opportunity that others only dream of. Every day I came to work I viewed it as the ultimate privilege and never once lost sight of that. My time with the Cardinals has ended but the organization and the people in it will always have a special place within me.

Gathering up the strength to appear at the UK's Develop Conference despite the government removing game industry tax incentives from its emergency budget, Shadow Minister for Culture Ed Vaizey walked a fine line—claiming that he championed the games biz, yet endorsing George Osborne's plan to focus on the greater and more immediate financial needs of the UK.
In recounting a question to Vaizey about Games Tax Relief being offered in the future, the Guardian wrote that Vaizey was "non-committal, but offered a glimmer of hope." The MP stated, "I can't emphasise enough that I'm not the chancellor; it's just that in my view the treasury is always open to rational argument."

I was given a version of this recipe years ago, but it called for the use of commercial pasta sauce, which I don't usually care for. I have jars of homemade bolognese sauce that I prefer, but use whatever kind of sauce you like, and remember, this is supposed to be EASY on the cook. By using raw lasagne noodles, this comes together so quickly, your family and guests will be impressed, and you'll have time to visit and not stress out.

Owner of Sunrise day care are arrested in connection with four-year-old boy's death
Updated On: Sep 16 2012 09:29:46 AM EDT
The owner of a Sunrise day care and her daughter, an employee, were arrested for their alleged involvement in the death of a four-year-old boy last month.
Cecily Roberts, 43, and Camille Gordon, 20, were arrested in New York early Friday.
Roberts, the owner of 3 C's Day Academy, had moved to New York and was operating L.R. Academy there since Jordan Coleman's death, said Broward Sheriff's Office deputies. Investigators said L.R. Academy advertised that it provided 24-hour care for children from 6-months to 12-years-old.
On Wednesday, Paris Ward, an employee at the day care, turned herself in on a charge of aggravated manslaughter. She bonded out of jail late Thursday.
According to the arrest report, on August 1, Ward and another employee took Jordan Coleman, 4, and seven other children to a Tamarac apartment complex, but forgot Coleman in the SUV.
Coleman was found unconscious in the SUV about two-and-a-half hours later, investigators said. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Ward initially lied about how Coleman became unconscious, telling her coworker and a Broward Sheriff's Office homicide detective the boy collapsed while getting into the SUV, according to the arrest report.
A week after his death, Coleman's family filed a wrongful death suit against 3 C's Day Academy.
Stuart Grossman, the family's attorney, issued a statement about Ward's arrest, saying: "The family and I hope that anyone who bears any responsibility for Jordan's death will be brought to justice."
Coleman's family members said they were not ready for an interview Friday night. Willie Coleman, the boy's grandfather, said emotions were still very raw.
Grossman told Local 10 they are outraged that Roberts and Gordon continued to operate a day care facility after the boy's death.
3 C's Day Academy has been closed since the incident. The day care was under investigation after it was cited for capacity requirements, personnel training, background screening, and general safety requirements since 2011.
Roberts and Gordon both face a charge of aggravated manslaughter. Roberts was also charged with felony child care misrepresentation.

Global Praise in the East Africa Conference
April 27-May 12, 2007
by Rev. Debi Tyree
The first impression we had of Uganda was the warm moist air coming off of Lake Victoria. The beauty of the countryside soon became apparent as we rode from the airport. In that first hour we experienced a view of Lake Victoria, the greenness of the countryside, the capital city of Kampala, the bustle of Saturday morning roadside markets, and the unique place in the crossroad of Uganda that the city of Mukono holds.
The East African Church Music and Worship Leadership event began with an invitation from Bishop Daniel Wandabula. His desire was that the Global Praise Program would develop the leadership and curriculum to enable teams of pastors and musician from all across the conference to participate in an intensive music and worship training. Bishop Wandabula also recognized that the leaders would become students as they learned East African music and worship from the pastor/musicians delegates. A last request was that the children of the Humble School, where the training was to be held, would be given the opportunity to sing in a choir.
The team from the United Sates, Eileen Guenther, Patrick Evans, Greg Scheer, Fa Fields, Debi Tyree, Jorge Lockward, and Chris Heckert, met together for the first time the night before the flight to Uganda. We were joined in Mukono, Uganda, by the rest of the leadership team: African church music specialist Patrick Matsikenyiri (Zimbabwe) and David Basoga, ethnomusicologist (Uganda.)
East Africa is comprised of 5 countries: Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda, Sudan, and Kenya. Delegates were chosen by the leadership of the conference and represented each of the five countries. Every day of the training was filled for leaders and delegates. Each day began with worship led by the delegates reflecting the music and worship styles from their faith communities and cultures. The variety of song and worship styles was exciting and Spirit-led. Worship was followed by a plenary led by one of the leaders. The delegates then gathered into three groups for intensive classes in keyboard, music theory and voice/sight singing. Specialized classes in song leading, children's music, and guitar/bass followed after lunch. Children from the Humble School became a lab choir for the children's music class and met together for choir rehearsal each afternoon. At the end of the day roles were switched, as leaders became students; leaders and delegates met together with David Basoga to learn about East African instruments. The time was filled with song as the delegates taught the leadership team and each other the songs, drum, and other instrument patterns from their faith communities. The delegates had several hours of homework each night in all classes. Bishop Wandabula presented each delegate with a certificate of participation at the end of the training event. Chris Heckert has created a video that shares an overview of the experience. View the video at http://web.mac.com/christopherheckert/iWeb/Site/Movie.html
One of the unexpected blessings that happened as a part of this experience was the sharing of songs and understanding between the participants. The delegates represented the 5 countries that comprise East Africa and also represented many different tribes. Songs were shared from tribe to tribe and country to country. A strong sense of unity as a conference of The United Methodist Church began to arise by the end of the first week. Lasting friendships between pastors and friends have been created in the name of Christ across the boundaries of country and tribe. The seed that was planted during the first week continued to grow as the East African Annual Conference met on the property of the Humble School near the end of our time together. The leadership and participants were honored to be able to be guests of the session of the East Africa Annual Conference that coincided with the last two days of training. The delegates led songs in several of the native languages of the members of the Annual Conference. The seed of unity and solidarity that was planted has become more important in 2008 as Kenya experiences fighting within its county.
Impressions from Three Members of the Leadership
In his last audio report he shares, "The last day of classes was wonderful and sad. We ended chapel by anointing each other with oil around a circle while singing "Send Me Jesus." It was a really powerful moment. Our last meal together included a special treat--soda. Then we packed up and said our goodbyes.
I hate goodbyes. They either come off as flippant or melodramatic, but they never seem to communicate "even if we never see each other again, I'll carry a part of you with me for the rest of my life."
I'm still processing my time in Uganda, and probably will be for years to come. But here are some things I'm thinking about:
Rev. Debi Tyree participated in the East Africa trip prior to coming on staff at the General Board of Global Ministries, Global Praise Program. Bellevue United Methodist Church, Nashville, TN, supported her in her goal of being a part of the leadership team. The church has continued to support missions in the months after the trip in many ways. This winter, the Fourth-Fifth Grade Sunday school class at Bellevue is working on Prayer Bears for the children in Humble School in Uganda. Jeff Shearer, co-teacher of the class shares, "We've been studying prayer during January. As part of that, the kids decided they wanted to reach out to kids in another part of the world. They chose Uganda because of the recent news about Africa and they knew Debi had been over there. The Prayer Bear idea came from a video they watched in Sunday school about a church that made Prayer Bears as an outreach program. The kids plan to write a prayer as a class to attach to beanie baby type bears and send them to kids their age. "The seed of faith and understanding of our call to mission has grown to impact all ages in this congregation.
Dr. Eileen Guenther shares that she is still singing the music, especially the songs that each country group offered at the morning worship services, songs that everyone else was soon singing as if the songs were their own. She has used some of the songs, principally "Shukuru" for in her classes and in services at Wesley Seminary. She has led other songs and plans to continue to expand the seminary community's repertoire with songs from East Africa.
Eileen states, "Relationships with other members of the team continue as do relationships with participants, and all would be even deeper and stronger if I spent more time corresponding with both sets of people! In terms of the team, I am confident we will see each other again, work with each other, share the songs we learned and, I hope, work together in publishing them. I would love to think we'd encounter some of the participants again, but that's not as easily accomplished - although it would be an indescribable blessing if it ever happened! Correspondence with the pastors from Kenya in the wake of post-election violence in the winter of 2008 has been heart-rending and moving; their faith is rock-solid even in this crisis. After describing the burning of homes and church and deaths in his community of Naivsha, Pastor Moses writes that they will survive because in his words, 'Our God is more than able.'"
"My own faith was expanded as I see the strong, unwavering faith of people who have suffered greatly, who live in poverty and who have endured unimaginable hardships," said Dr. Guenther. She continued, "Such is the faith of those I met in East Africa. Each time I encounter people whose life experiences are vastly different from my own, I grow in my sense of the world that God created and the different gifts that have been given to each of us - regardless of the extent of "creature comforts" that we have in our own lives. I find that those who have the least in the way of material goods have the greatest faith - and that's something I consistently work to understand and communicate to students at Wesley Seminary."

Coach Hill's Post Scrimmage Comments –
Defensively, the 'Dogs looked quicker and faster off the edges.
Matt Akers recorded three of the defense's 11 tackles for losses. Chris Carter had two sacks while Chris Lewis and Logan Harrell each had one TFL and one sack. Harrell shot through the A gap on more than on occasion. His quick burst gave the interior linemen – particularly Matt Hunt – fits all afternoon. But Akers impressed us the most.
Down from his 245 pounds from last fall, the 6-foot-3, 225-pound Akers abused the Bulldog offensive tackles with his quick first step. Akers says he feels lighter on his feet, but hopes to add another 10-15 pounds by fall camp and keep his speed.
Interview with Akers following the scrimmage –
The defense dominated the line of the scrimmage for most of the scrimamge.
Offensively, Ryan Colburn took the first reps with the first team, and it went downhill quickly after that.
Colburn's Post Scrimmage Comments –
Colburn connected on his fist attempt – a quick pass to the left to Lonyae Miller, who took it for a 13-yard gain. Colburn would start 2-for-2, hitting Ryan Mathews for eight yards on his next attempt. However, he would hit just one of his next five passes. All five of his passes to the wide receivers were incomplete. But Derek Carr, Ebahn Feathers, and Matt Faulkner didn't fare much better.
In spite of completing just 20% of his passes, Carr was on target on most of his throws. Dropped passes and strong wind contributed eight incomplete passes while passing for just 13 yards. However, he attempted the only two long balls on the afternoon – both to Devon Wylie – and each was a well thrown spiral with one hitting Wylie on the facemask and the other slightly overthrown. But his best pass was completed after the whistle was blown.
"I didn't think I was sacked but they blew the whistle – we'll see on film," Carr said of Carter's apparent sack as he threw a sidearm bullet to Jamel Hamler.
"I spun around – felt the pressure – spun away from it. I saw Hamler coming across and I saw a little window I could put it in. The only way I could get it there was sidearm. So, I had to throw it down by my hip, but it got there."
The play was reminiscent of a shortstop making a play to first, and Carr said after the scrimmage that he played a little bit of shortstop growing up.
Feathers also hit only 20% of his passes, but he did complete the longest throw on the day – 17 yards to Wylie. Nonetheless, his highlights mostly came on the ground. He took his first snap from the pistol and finished as the leading rusher with 29 yards on four attempts. Only one of his runs was by design – 3 yards on a QB draw. Yet, he may have finished with over 60 yards rushing if the coaches had not blown the whistle on two of his three scrambles.
Faulkner started just 1-of-7 but completed his final three attempts – the last going for 12 yards to Darren Newborne for the only touchdown through the air for the offense. He also led the 'Dogs with 36 yards passing.
The receivers didn't help. There were nearly 10 combined drops just by the receivers alone. Seyi Ajirotutu, Jamel Hamler, Marlon Moore, and Chastin West combined for just two receptions for 13 yards. Newborne led all receivers with three grabs for 30 yards and the score.
Jamal Rashad was the offense's most outstanding player. He finished with three carries for 17 yards, but he had a 14-yard touchdown run called back on an illegal procedure penalty – one of just two penalties among the 67 plays in the hour and a half scrimmage.
A.J. Ellis scored the only other touchdown on the afternoon on a two-yard run. He finished with 11 yards on three carries. Michael Harris led all backs with seven carries, but he totaled only 11 yards.
The defense did have its low points as well. Zak Hill, Marvin Haynes, and Phillip Thomas each dropped interceptions. And the secondary had a coverage breakdown on more than one occasion, but the quarterbacks couldn't take advantage of the defensive lapse.
Kevin Goessling and Andrew Shapiro combined to go 2-for-2 on field goal attempts from 37 and 42 yards, respectively.
Goessling nails his lone field goal attempt on the day.

CMS Mulls Use of Specialty Registries for Quality Data
The federal government wants to know how outcomes data that hospitals and doctors now submit to specialty society registries might be folded into Medicare performance measures that assess quality of care.
That's what the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services asked in its February "request for information" about such registries, and whether the agency should approve such clinical data registries as being "qualified," ultimately satisfying federal requirements under its Physician Quality Reporting System, or the Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Program.
To be such a federally recognized registry, what requirements would a professional organization have to meet?
These voluntary reporting registries, a growing trend in specialty care especially for surgery and other invasive procedures, amass and risk-adjust, sometimes audit, and usually report back results to participating doctors and hospitals so they can benchmark their own performance.
"What would be the benefits and shortcomings involved with allowing third-party entities to report quality data to CMS on behalf of physicians and other eligible professionals?" CMS asked in one part of its request.
Specialties that operate or are starting such registries range from cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery, to orthopedics and neurosurgery.
In about 100 responses submitted by the April 8 deadline, many of those organizations expressed concerns about how this would all play out.
"We think that if CMS allows registries to serve as physician quality reporting efforts, the agency should make sure the data is accurate and rigorously collected," says Clifford Ko, MD, director of the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program, or NSQIP, which now has 700 hospitals participating in a variety of outcomes registries for surgery.

Jessica Chastain: Getting Famous As Teenager Would Have Been "Disaster"
October 7th, 2014
Jessica Chastain is happy she got famous when she did, rather than as a teenager.
"I would have been a disaster," she tells Glamour. "If I was 19 and I had the attention that I'm getting now, I would have just said stupid things. I would have partied more. All these expensive dinners and people giving me champagne? All these stupid things that we criticize 19-year-olds for doing when they're famous, I would have done."Read more...

Cheney Retires from Comrex
Devens, MA - Sep 15, 2006 - After 32 years with the company, Lynn Cheney has retired as the president of Comrex. John Cheney founded the company in 1961. Lynn, then Lynn Distler, started working for the company in 1974. She and John married several years later.
The first Comrex product was a wireless mic system that operated in the 450MHz band. These systems were used by theaters and broadcasters for many years. Later, Comrex moved into telephony, and since then the company's technology has evolved beyond phone couplers and single-line frequency extenders for POTS lines, to a range of POTS, ISDN and IP codecs. Comrex also manufacturers a line of telephone hybrids and a complete on-air telephone system.
Lynn Cheney was joined by several broadcast manufacturers and dealers as well as Radio magazine on her last day in the office. During the reception, several calls were taken via Comrex products to extend well wishes to Cheney in her retirement. Cheney plans to travel with her family and enjoy the outdoors, including kayaking.

"Well, I'll tell ya," drawls tenor-sax great Illinois Jacquet by phone from his home on Long Island, "they say you always return to the scene of the crime."
Jacquet is referring to Fort Lauderdale, where he will perform with his big band on Saturday as part of the Bonnet House Jazz Fest. Fifty-four years have passed since he played here with another big band, one led by a certain vibraphonist name of Lionel Hampton. "The train didn't seem to make a direct stop," Jacquet wryly recalls of his transportation to Lauderdale. "It sort of slooooowed up, 'cause it was goin' to Miami. And I often wonder, 'Well, why didn't it stop and let us off properly?' Y'know, we had bags and instruments...." So the jump band jumped. "It was not an easy thing to do. We were young, though...."
Eighteen, to be exact (tenor sax compadre Dexter Gordon was just seventeen), and loving life. Born in Broussard, Louisiana, and reared in Houston, Jacquet was doing what he was born to do. Entertain. His pop was a bandleader, his older brothers accomplished horn players in their own right. He chased Count Basie's band to California, hooked up with Hamp, and began to make the music that would make his name.
At age 72, Jacquet is still making music, traveling the world with his own big band (he likes his current home because it's close to La Guardia, JFK, and Newark), playing concerts and festivals, and continuing to dazzle audiences with his high flying solos. Ironically, it was a stint as artist in residence at Harvard University, where he taught for three years, that convinced him of the viability of putting together a big band; for years he'd been performing with just eight or nine pieces. "When I got those students interested in playing my charts and whatnot, they begin to sound like a professional band. That's what gave me the idea to form a big band."
Unfortunately, it's still a big band without a recording contract: Negotiations with Sony fell through, but Atlantic, which released his most recent effort, 1988's Jacquet's Got It (with SoFla jazz drummer Duffy Jackson), remains interested. Increasing his stature -- only the recording industry would need more reasons to sign someone like Illinois Jacquet -- is his induction into the Jazz Hall of Fame, at the Rutgers Institute of Jazz Studies this Sunday after his Fort Lauderdale appearance. Last year he was recognized with a similar honor by the Rhythm and Blues Foundation.
Jacquet's impact is unquestionable, whether belching sooty riffs that practically set the standard for R&B and rock and roll, or blowing ballads creamier than vichyssoise. It was the former, however, that wrote large his name in the history books, his breath-defying, seemingly endless solo on Hamp's "Flying Home" inspiring generations of honkers and hooters to come. "We didn't do too many takes," the saxophonist recollects of the now infamous session. "They had to build me a little platform -- a little guy, eighteen years old, with a big tenor saxophone. When I got ready to go up there, I didn't know what I was going to play. Every night I'd sound like Coleman Hawkins or Lester Young, you know, I'd be playing like my peers. And the first saxophone player, Marshall Royal, he just reached over before I went to the microphone and he put his hand on the side of his mouth and said, 'Go for yourself.' And I said, 'Go for myself?' I didn't know I had a self I could go for. And that's when I created that solo."
With no inkling as to the sensation his solo would stir, Jacquet first heard the record of "Flying Home" during an engagement in Jacksonville. "We were playing a club there called the Two Spot -- it was a dancehall way out on the outskirts. And we were staying in the city at some local dump hotel, and all of a sudden, they had a truck -- a loud-speakin' truck -- goin' down the street playin' that record. I jumped up and said [voice raising an octave or two], 'Wait a minute!' and looked out the window, and the kids were running behind that truck. And that was the first time I heard that release." The dancehall that night? Packed to the rafters. "You couldn't even get in the parking lot," he says proudly.
The road experience with Hampton proved invaluable, building on the rep Jacquet had established jamming in the clubs of Los Angeles with cats such as Nat "King" Cole (who introduced him to Hamp), Jimmy Blanton, Charlie Christian, and blues legends T-Bone Walker and Charles Brown, who he knew from Texas. Never one to overstay his welcome, Jacquet jumped from Hampton's band to Cab Calloway's, making films with the Hi-de-ho Man, and then finally catching up with the band that had made him want to play jazz more than anything else in the world: the Count Basie Orchestra.
After a year, opportunity knocked again, this time in the form of Norman Granz, the producer of the Jazz at the Philharmonic sessions, who could pay Jacquet more than the Count could afford. Another historic side was cut, "Blues, Part 2," the record that was to launch Granz and the fledgling Verve label. Jacquet remembers the circumstances: "They had a race riot out in California in 1944. And Nat 'King' Cole asked me to play this benefit. We wasn't gettin' paid or anything. And we just started playin', and Les Paul started doin' things on his guitar, and he said, 'Where'd that come from?' and I started creating things, and I heard the audience going crazy." Recorded without the musicians' knowledge, the session was shipped overseas as a morale booster for the joes fighting Tojo. After the war -- and the resultant record ban -- "Blues" was released as a single stateside, and according to Jacquet it sold "like the daily news." And though he's now hesitant to admit it, he told Eddie Cook at Jazz Journal International in February that he never received royalties for the record ("That's still in question," he allows diplomatically), the success of which made Granz wealthy and enticed jazz stars such as Lester Young, Dizzy Gillespie, and Ella Fitzgerald to record for JATP.

This was my first time making gingerbread and as suggested by other reviewers, I doubled the spices. The cookies were delicious and the dough was so easy to work with. I look forward to making them again.
LOVE this recipe! I am so tired of making dough, refrigerating dough, taking out to soften to cut cookies, re-refrigerating leftobers between baking... This is a much simpler recipe and it's delicious! My 5 year old just helped me bake a batch of snowflakes. We made a simple powdered sugar icing. Piped it on and then pressed each in coarse sugar or tiny white nonpariels.
Made these today...what a lovely recipe. Like others I doubled the spices and baked for only 7-8 minutes....the cookies were perfect!!!
These were AWESOME. I made a second batch substituting corn syrup for molasses and adding vanilla and they made great vanilla cookies too.
Fun and easy to make. I did find the dough a bit soft for cutting immediately. It was a pleasure to roll, but I had to refrigerate it for a few minutes (5-10) before I could cut them and have the dough hold its shape from the cutter to the cookie sheet! I halved the recipe, except for the spices, and I was a tad short on ginger. They flavor is nice, but I wish I had had more ginger. I also substituted 1/2 dark corn syrup and 1/2 maple syrup for the molasses since I didn't have any. It worked fine. Since some reviews said the cookies were a bit soft, I did half of the brown sugar as white sugar instead and they came out nice and crisp. Yum!
this recipe was pretty good- easy to make and work with. i halved the recipe and kept the spices the same- (effectively doubling the spices), and the cookies have a nice kick to them. i do prefer my gingerbread crispy rather than soft, and these cookies were definitely soft. i cooked some batches for 6 minutes and other for 12 minutes, and it seemed to make no difference.
I'd never made gingerbread cookies before I found this recipe, but was pleasantly surprised with how easy they were to make. They turned out absolutely delicious, but I would definitely like to experiment with the recipe a little to see if I can make them even better (change up the spice amounts as other users have suggested). I paired them with a homemade chocolate frosting and the combo is to die for.
Excellent recipe. Flavor is beautiful and they knead easily. I didn't cook so long that they lost their softness so need to handle with care when transferring to the cooling rack. Can't wait to take them to the grandkids for decorating!
Its pretty amazing what happens when you add the baking soda... I wasn't expecting that. I used cookie cutters in the shape of Canadian animals. Hilarious.

Nothing is confirmed yet, but it's expected that the producers will announce Waltz's involvement and his role at a press conference next week. Until then, speculation can reign supreme like the campiness of Bond's heyday. How about a Plenty O' Toole reboot?
Current Category: Daniel Craig
The White House has released their 2nd PSA for the 1 Is 2 Many campaign that looks to draw attention to the problem of domestic violence against women. The first clip featured professional athletes including Eli Manning and David Beckham. This time around Vice President Joe Biden sought the assistance of some of Hollywood's leading men including Steve Carell, David Craig, Benicio Del Toro, Seth Meyers and Dulé Hill.
Skyfall starring 44-year-old Daniel Craig as James Bond has fallen to Twilight's Breaking Dawn at the box office this week, but it fell nowhere near the level the previous Bond film Quantum of Solace it's second week. Critics and fans are raving about the film, and it's already the highest grossing domestic Bond film ever.
The man at the heart of it, Daniel Craig, who is probably the best bond since Sean Connery, may have lost out on People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive title, but there's no doubt that his wife Rachel Weisc is a lucky girl.
The notoriously private British actor gave a playful and revealing interview to Rolling Stone this month where he talked about how he's nothing like the tough guy he plays.
See photos of actors Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara from the red carpet at the world premiere of David Fincher's film adaptation of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Rooney leaves her iconic character, the planet's favorite tech-savvy petite Goth badass, Lisbeth Salander, far behind as she looks nothing short of elegant (although still with a splash of badassness!) alongside her Mikael Blomkvist incarnate co-star.
(Who else can't wait for this film?!?)
Leave it to James Bond to stage his wedding as a covert operation! Actor Daniel Craig (43) and actress Rachel Weisz (41) tied the knot in a secret ceremony in New York Wednesday at which there were only four guests: Daniel's 18-year-old daughter Ella and Rachel's 4-year-old son Henry and two family friends to serve as witnesses.
The upcoming English version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo directed by David Fincher has fell victim to the bootlegged leaked trailer phenomenon. Or has it?
Check out the red-band trailer that has folks asking if this was a bootleg copy or a clever promotional tool used by Sony pictures that would fall in line with the film's computer hacking protagonist Lisbeth Salander.
Check out the new movie poster for the Jon Favreau (Iron Man) directed sci-fi western Cowboys and Aliens starring Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford Sam Rockwell and Olivia Wilde!
One of the lead roles in one of the most anticipated movies has been cast. Daniel Craig is officially saying goodbye to Bond and hello to Swedish journalist Mikael Blomkvist in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Deadline reports. This looks like a smart choice over other rumored contenders like Brad Pitt and George Clooney, […]

The Integrating Finite Impulse-Response Filter
The highly efficient delta-coded finite impulse response (DCFIR) filter is presented. Its structure consists of a sparse FIR filter cascaded with one or more digital integrators. The DCFIR filter offers equal performance over each octave without resorting to clumsy multirate techniques, and its coefficients may be rapidly estimated. The paper discusses its concept and design and compares it to other methods of broadband equalization.
