Skepticism was understandable when it was announced that the musical drama Once was being adapted for the stage. The much loved independent film had achieved an international following by depicting the art of musical collaboration with an emotional intimacy rarely seen in spectacle-heavy Broadway productions. Centered on the relationship between a heartsick Irish street busker and a lonely Czech immigrant, Once managed to convey the complexities of attraction and the healing powers of song by setting the narrative to a captivating soundtrack penned by the two leads, Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová. To the relief of the film's fans and the gratification of theatergoers, the stage adaptation by Enda Walsh wisely retained the original compositions as the beating heart of the production, honoring the source material's wistful mix of resignation and resiliency. Forsaking pageantry, Once puts the emphasis squarely on the characters by utilizing a minimalist set design and having the cast double as the orchestra. This creative commitment to capturing the tone of the film was rewarded with a spectrum of accolades, including the 2012 Tony for Best Musical. Marking its inaugural national tour, the John Tiffany-directed production premieres at the Orpheum Theatre with Stuart Ward and Dani De Waal in the leading roles. Rejecting the excesses of Broadway bombast, Once seeks a connection in the understated poignancy of two vulnerable voices united in song. (Photo by Joan Marcus)

Matthew Burnett is a Detroit native whose grandfather inspired his interest in manufacturing, as he was a watchmaker by trade. Matthew received a BFA in industrial design from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York in 2007. He began his professional career designing watches for Marc Jacobs, DKNY, and Diesel. After working in the watch industry, he decided to start his own line, Steel Cake, having watches made overseas. Though previously designing and overseeing production for big brands, he found that manufacturing as an independent brand overseas would be a much different experience. Extended turnaround periods, language barriers, and continuous manufacturing errors brought the Steel Cake Watch line to a close. In 2010, Burnett decided to start a line of leather goods (The Brooklyn Bakery) using domestic manufacturers in order to maintain control over the quality of production and form closer relationships with the suppliers and contractors. In 2011 Burnett partnered with Tanya Menendez on The Brooklyn Bakery to manage sales and operations. After pairing with Burnett on the accessories brand, Menendez suggested that they develop a resource that would assist designers in finding American manufacturers. With Burnett's background in manufacturing and Menendez's experience with operations, they began to develop the blueprint for what is today, Maker's Row.
Hayward, CA
Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, Tanya studied technology and its socioeconomic impacts on rural economies at UCSD. Conducting a number of studies on financial technology advancements in Oaxaca, Mexico, she co-authored "The Economics of Migration", published by the University of California. Shortly thereafter, Menendez joined the Google Strategy and Integration group advising on internal system operations. In 2011 Menendez partnered with Matthew Burnett on The Brooklyn Bakery to manage sales and operations. While at The Brooklyn Bakery, she came up with the idea to create a platform for entrepreneurs to be able to easily access American manufacturers. Combining her experience in operations / automation with Matthew's experience in global manufacturing, they started Maker's Row.

Alcon Eyeing 'Blade Runner' Reboot
Alcon Entertainment, the company behind The Blind Side, is looking to bring the world of Blade Runner back to the big screen.
The 1982 cult classic, which was directed by Ridley Scott and starred Harrison Ford, was based on a Philip K. Dick novel titled Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.
The company is in final negotiations to acquire the film, television and ancillary franchise rights to produce prequels and sequels to the iconic science-fiction thriller.
Alcon is getting the film rights from Bud Yorkin, who was an exec producer on the original movie. Yorkin will serve as a producer on the projects.
Alcon co-heads Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson and Cynthia Sikes Yorkin will co-produce. Frank Giustra and Tim Gamble, CEOs of Thunderbird Films, will serve as executive producers.
The story is set in a future where man has created clones called replicants who are used for dangerous work. When the replicants rebel against their makers on a space colony, they are banned and hunted down.
The movie centered on Rick Dekard (Ford), a retired member of a police officer corps called blade runners who hunt down replicants on Earth. Dekard is called back to duty one more time to track six clones who escape a colony and come to Los Angeles.
Alcon seems to know it has a beloved movie property on its hands and promised to be mindful of that fact.
"This is a major acquisition for our company, and a personal favorite film for both of us," Kosove and Johnson said in a statement. "We recognize the responsibility we have to do justice to the memory of the original with any prequel or sequel we produce. We have long-term goals for the franchise, and are exploring multiplatform concepts, not just limiting ourselves to one medium."

China Mobile to roll-out 16GB MEGA-cloud platform
The world's largest mobile operator by subscribers, China Mobile, is finally jumping on the cloud computing bandwagon with its own iCloud rival, which will also be available to internet users outside the People's Republic. The 'Mcloud' service is currently being tested and will be ready before the end of the year, offering users …
To be fair...
"continually frustrating China Mobile by failing to build an iPhone designed specifically for its home-grown 3G standard TD-SCDMA"
To be fair, if you're paranoid enough to want to go out of your way to build your own standard so as to avoid a dependence on Western technology, don't expect any Western technologists to want to support it!
Re: To be fair...
They developed their own standard so that they wouldn't need to pay license fees to western tech companies and so that domestic manufacturers wouldn't have competition from western tech companies and so could grow a massive domestic market share quickly and easily. That sounds very sensible to me, if not in the best long term interests of their captive customers. Then again, when did a big comms company care about its customers?
Re: To be fair...
iPhone 5 will most likely using Qualcomm's MDM9615 baseband, which supports everything the iPhone 4S chipset does, along with TD-SCDMA and China Mobile's future TD-LTE standard (along with regular old LTE for the US market)
Of course, this doesn't guarantee they enable it to receive the specific frequencies, but even in the absence of a deal with China Mobile it would make sense for them to do so. There are millions of jailbroken iPhones on their network today running at Edge speeds, so the demand is obviously there even if China Mobile and Apple can't come to terms to offer it officially.
Hmmm, Let me think awhile
Would I a. Prefer to keep my private info private on my own PC, or b. Would I rather store it in on the computers in a communist surveillance state.
I think on this occasion I may take option a even though I have little to nothing worth being surveilled upon anyway.
Re: Hmmm, Let me think awhile
Well, yes.... But think.
All those financials that you need to keep, but would rather not bother the revenue with. I mean, either side of the pond it's effectively wide open to government level scrutiny... But what will happen if Her Majesty, or one of her loyal servants, wants a peek at a data store in the PRC?
Sure, the commies can see your data, and in some cases, that may be a problem. However, I see this being very popular with a certain crowd.
Re: Hmmm, Let me think awhile
There is this wonderful thing called encryption. Ive heard it is great for storing stuff you dont want opened in places that are a bit too visible or insecure.
No, no, really, we should go out of our way to take advantage of this by compressing useless files such as DRM music, or documents telling them to "F" off, with several different compression programs, then having those files encrypted several ways to sunday, then split them up into several files.....etc.....
Just dump a bunch of junk on the servers and let them spend many hours trying to figure out what exactly the files are. I think they would either be pissed to find all the time was wasted on something stupid or insulting or frustrated because they were never able to decode it.
My thoughts about pretty much any tinfoil hatted government conspiracy.
1) The noise/signal ratio is already so high with kittens, music, youtubing, stalkerbook, and inane twatting that any good inteligence is lost.
2) If they DID manage to build something that worked mining our data, we're growing our data so fast and shoving more and more of it into 'THE CLOUD!' that they're going to have to find a dyke to stick their finger in.
i think the problem in china is that the people have chains in their heads, they dont _need_ something like the stazi. so i doubt ther'd be a lot of data furtling going on.
and really china so much worse than apple???
cant see it myself
Whilst I agree that trusting important information to a single cloud service is not the wisest move, comparing a business, be it Apple, Google or anyone else to the Chinese government is not really cricket now is it?!
Comparing a business to the Chinese government
No is one is comparing storing data at Apple or Google to giving it to the Chinese government. We're comparing giving it to the US government to giving it to the Chinese government. Because if you think that Google or Apple won't give up your data should the feds ask, you are deluding yourself. They won't tell you they are doing this of course, it'll be done via a law we aren't allowed to know about that Google and Apple aren't allowed to tell us about, just like the wiretapping that all the big US carriers did (except Qwest, but they probably are no longer safe since they got bought out by Centurylink, convenient wasn't that?)
Of course, if you are not a US citizen, you may not care too much if the US government looks at your data, so long as you aren't doing anything terrorist related. Or drug related. Or money laundering related. Or help Wikileaks. Or any other "subversive" organization. On second thought, even if you aren't a US citizen you probably should be concerned about giving your data to the US government...
Data mining aside...
...going on my past experience with China - everything is done half-arsed - what makes you think your data is still going to be there tomorrow?
if your data is that important...
Dont stick it in the cloud, get it on another hard drive/cd/tape backup (preferebly all three) and have it stored in a weather/fireproof box buried at the bottom of the garden....
Very few files of my own files are likely to outlive the life of the HDD they are on, the ones that are important are emailed to my self, the really important ones are on multiple cd's. Anything media wise is to big to upload to the net anyway.... Or its already available for streaming somewhere.
Re: if your data is that important...
he really important ones are on multiple cd's
and, on a serious note, I would recommend you do give those cds a spin every couple of weeks. Cause, spin or no spin, those I burned a few years back are all f****, and I did store them carefully, as at that point in my life I was still oblivious to the "up to" part of the "up to 500 years storage life" claim.
Re: if your data is that important...
Ive had various success with CDs, I've got some ancient cake box of these yellow things that seem very good, I've literally had them years and still work fine, I've had others that haven't survived the burn, and others where like you say, they work a few times and then they are coasters.
Very hit and miss, tbh anything media wise is on a spare HDD stored in a box in the wardrobe, gets synched every now and again when I can be botherd. There are very few 'cannot lose this' files on my home pc anyway.
Re: if your data is that important...
DansData had this great article on how to print data and scan back for archival purposes. Sure it is only a few KB per page but still that is great for archiving important (encrypted) documents.
@CmdrX3, So option 'b' accounts for data farms located pretty much anywhere in the world then?
Surely one can provide an intermediary encryption layer?
Funnily enough I trust the Chinese with my data in a cloud about as much as I trust the USA, which probably explains why I am a ludite that stores nothing of any importance solely in any bloody cloud.
Does it come with fries?
"Mcloud" sounds like the name for a McDonalds wifi network.
Or a big sword?
Since we're talking Apple in the same sentence...
"There can be only one".
Con or Mcloud... you decide!
Big deal
What's the difference between storing on Chinese servers where your data might get watched vs say Amazon or other US owned companies which are subject to the Patriot Act ? And have I not been reading over the past year about various 'western' clouds going down ? As far as I'm concerned they can all phuck off as none of my personal files are going on any of them, nor are business ones.
Does it matter where you store it?
If you care about privacy, you should encrypt it whether it is stored in China or stored in Amazon's, Apple's or Google's cloud. If it is something where privacy is unimportant, like your mp3 collection, then it doesn't matter where you store it - though presumably the network would be faster from a cloud that isn't on the other side of the globe!
I think one should assume that any cloud provider will give up everything to the local government, anyone who believes their government is better in this regard than the US or Chinese is fooling themselves. Between the two, I'd rather have the Chinese government get hold of my stuff than the US government. China has less reason to care about digging into my private information. Likewise a Chinese citizen should rather use a US based cloud than China Mobile's (though China's great firewall may block this)
Hack yourself so Chinese don't need to it
Great idea, upload your files to China Mobile Mcloud, save them hacking into your setup. I think the NSA thought of it first, with google cloud.
>given the paranoia that exists around Chinese firms, especially in the US<
I'd personally trust the Chinese cloud more... not such good extradition possibilities if you leave a note saying something like 'Fuck the Chinese authorities' compared to the stupid FBI or CIA twats finding a note that says 'Fuck the American intelligence agencies' demanding your presence in a kangaroo - sorry, American court.
>anyone who believes their government is better in this regard than the US or Chinese is fooling themselves.<
As a British citizen I would be more than happy to use a British cloud service, for tho' our government is as corrupt and wanting to spy on their own citizens, as the others, I still kind'a trust them more.
'Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so.' Ford Prefect.
«However, given the paranoia that exists around Chinese firms,
especially in the US, it remains to be seen how enthusiastic customers will be about China Mobile having hold of their data.» To which paranoia, of course, Phil is ever ready, as his every posting on China on the Reg has demonstrated, to contribute. As others commentators have noted, all data storage companies, no matter their location - and in the US, public libraries which are required, if so ordered, to inform the FBI of which books loaners have borrowed, but enjoined from informer the loaner that this information has been passed on - are going to make one's files available to the government if requested/required to do so. Anyone who thinks otherwise is blissfully unaware of the notion of «sovereign powers» exercised by a state. Encryption is, as pointed out above, one alternative, others DvDs, external harddisks, or tape, depending upon how much data one needs to store. There are also, not to be forgotten, courses in mnemonics....

Jorgenson on Carbon Tax, Harvard Magazine
Time to Tax Carbon: Enhancing environmental quality
and economic growth
Excerpted from Harvard Magazine, September-October 2014, by Jonathan Shaw
Next year, representatives from nations around the world will meet in Paris to discuss a global climate-change agreement that would take effect in 2020. Central to those discussions will be setting a price on carbon and its equivalents—a figure that captures the social costs of releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The impacts of those emissions range from the health effects of burning fossil fuels, to inundation and adaptation of coastal cities threatened by rising seas, to extinction of plant and animal species as a consequence of rapidly changing environmental conditions. These costs amount to nearly $1.6 trillion annually worldwide, based on Yale scholars' estimates of the damages at $44 per metric ton of CO2 and 2013 emissions of 36 billion metric tons.
As the no doubt fraught scientific and political discussion in the French capital nears, the work of Morris University Professor Dale Jorgenson, an economist known for his ability to marry theory and practice, is especially important. Jorgenson has studied the factors that drive economic growth, the relationship between energy and the environment, and the effects of tax policy on both. His 2013 book, Double Dividend: Environmental Taxes and Fiscal Reform in the United States, is the first to examine what would happen if revenues from a carbon tax—based on the price of carbon that will be the subject of debate in Paris—were recycled into the nation's economy.

WOONSOCKET — Gov. Lincoln Chafee took a walk on Main Street with Mayor Leo T. Fontaine on Monday and learned about the challenges of economic development in one of his state's distressed communities.
There were several signs of hope to be found on the tour, talks with business owners making a go of it despite the tough economy, and also a few reminders of work yet to be done to put viable businesses in still vacant storefronts.
"It's challenging," Chafee admitted after touring the large mill property Marie Deschenes is revitalizing at 117 Main St.
LINCOLN — Caroline Moore seemed to know immediately she had added a "u" where it didn't belong.
In the seventh round of the annual Rhode Island Spelling Bee Championship held Saturday morning at the Lincoln Middle School auditorium, the Wheeler School eighth-grader had just been asked to spell "thoroughbred."
GLOCESTER - Ponaganset High School student Aaron Dupuis was just a second-grader when he first strolled through the cavernous halls of the Rhode Island Statehouse. He remembers vividly climbing up the marble stairs, staring up in amazement at the ornate rotunda dome and peeking through the doors of the stately House and Senate chambers.
But what impressed him most that day was when he met then-Lt. Gov. Charles J. Fogarty Jr. Dupuis' father had just landed a new state government job and after pulling a few strings was able to arrange for his son to meet the lieutenant governor.
Most veterans know that the Disabled American Veterans organization exists. Many of them do not know that the DAV can be their best friend and a major advocate when they seek benefits later on in life from disabilities that can be linked to their time in the U.S. military.

The CALL is seeking photos of Blackstone Valley military veterans, whether they served in war zones or not. Please send photos to our email box: email@example.com or drop them off in the Veterans mail basket located on the front desk of The CALL's office at 75 Main St., Woonsocket.

The object of the game
Each player has seven cards with which to form a five-card hand that outranks that of the other players.
The game
The maximum number of players authorized to play Texas Hold'Em at the same time is ten (10).
The marker
At the beginning of each game, a puck is moved clockwise to each play position to determine the dealing order and the order of the betting rounds. At the beginning of the first game, the puck is placed in front of the first position on the dealer's right-hand side.
Blind bets
Blind bets must be posted by the first and second players on the left of the position identified by the puck. Each of these players must post a "small blind" and a "big blind" before the first card is dealt. The amount of these bets must be within the limits indicated at the gaming table.
The first dealing round and the first betting round
Beginning with the first player on the left of the player identified by the puck, the dealer gives each player in turn a first card, dealt face down, and then again, a second card, also dealt face down. Once all players have received both their cards, the first betting round begins. Players may call the big blind, raise, or fold.
"The Flop" and the second betting round
The dealer burns the top card and then deals three community cards called "The Flop." Players then proceed with the second betting round.
"The Turn" and the third betting round
The dealer burns the top card and then deals a fourth community card called "The Turn." A third betting round follows.
"The River" and the fourth betting round
The dealer burns the top card and then deals a fifth community card called "The River." A fourth and final betting round takes place.
Player options
During the betting rounds, situation permitting, the player may:
- Pass (Check): Decline to place a bet but retain the right to do so later if an opponent places a bet
- Bet: Place a bet in the pot
- Call: Match the preceding player's bet
- Raise: Bet an amount higher than the amount bet by the preceding player
- Fold: Stop placing gets bets and forfeit the right to win the pot
The showdown
During the showdown, each player who is still in the game and still has his two cards forms the highest possible ranking five-card poker hand in order to win the pot. He may use his two cards and three of the five community cards, one of his two cards and four of the five community cards, or all five community cards.
The pot
The player with the highest ranking hand at the end of the showdown wins the pot. If two or more players have identical hands, the pot is split evenly among these players.
The cards
Texas Hold'em is played with a standard fifty-two card deck. In decreasing order, the rank of the cards is as follows: Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2. An Ace may be used to complete a straight flush or an Ace-2-3-4-5 straight.
The combinations
The ranking of Texas Hold'em Poker combinations, in decreasing order, is as
Royal flush: Ace-King-Queen-Jack-10 of the same suit
Straight flush: Five cards of the same suit in consecutive ranking
Four-of-a-kind: Four cards of the same rank
Full house: Three-of-a-kind and a pair
Flush: Five cards of the same suit
Straight: Five cards in consecutive ranking, regardless of suit
Three-of-a-kind: Three cards of the same rank
Two pairs: Two pairs
Pair: Two cards of the same rank
High card: The highest ranking card
When more than one five-card hand contains identical combinations, the five-card
with the highest ranking card that is not part of any of the above combinations is the winning
hand. However, if all the cards that are not part of a combination are of equal rank, the hands are
considered to be identical.

Every visitor comes to your site in their own personal "buying stage." The buying stage is a wide spectrum, but we generally break it into Early, Middle, and Late stages:
Sometimes, websites seem to be doing everything right, but the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) just aren't as high as everyone expects.  Their sites are functional, accessible, usable, and intuitive. Their look and feel is credible, and their content is high quality. So why do their visitors not behave as we expect? Why do well-planned and well-executed scenarios (e.g. PPC ad, to landing page, to lead generating form, to thank you page) not always convert?
You guessed it: Buying Stage Schizophrenia.
Buying Stage Schizophrenia is when our selling process doesn't jive with the visitor's buying process. It's when our conversion funnel is designed for a buying stage that the visitor isn't in. Take a look at your site's conversion funnel…it's most likely designed for Late Stage buyers, right? Take a look at one of your PPC campaigns…are you showing Early Stage keywords a Middle Stage ad that sends the visitor down a Late Stage funnel? Poor visitor
The key point is to be aware that multiple buying stages are traversing your designed scenarios. It's fine if your funnel is fine-tuned to Late Stage buyers, but do you have easy navigation paths to let an Early or Middle stage visitor branch out and get more information? It's fine if your PPC landing pages are perfect for a Middle Stage searcher, but can an impatient Late Stage searcher "Buy Now"?
How do I identify buying stages to improve my scenarios?
A few ways, using basic analytics tools and skills, are:
Coincidentally (read: not coincidental at all ), we just launched a subscription service that can help with this very issue, you can start improving your conversion rate for as low as $1,000 a month.
Very interesting…I have not classified my buyers into three different stages. I usually gear my sales pages towards buyers who are already looking for the service.
I wish I could get more clients to understand this. Great article, I'll forward clients to read.
It's nice to see someone break it down like that.I had no idea it could get so specific.
I have not classified my buyers into three different stages.
Excellent point, though when you separate these out, its tough to maintain an acceptable CPA goal with 'early' and sometimes even 'middle' stage keywords.
Much more effective is to keep keywords where they are, but adjust LP selection.
[...] Lees echter voordat je dit doet dit interessante artikel: http://www.grokdotcom.com [...]
I hadn't thought of this before. I think our visitors are in the 2nd stage, and will have to look at the site to see if it really caters to that particular mind stage.
I think there should be a fourth stage: "Browsing" (or "Surfing", "Social" etc.).
The stage where the user is just surfing around on the Internet, because he/she is bored.
@Seværdigheder: If a visitor is "just browsing" on a retail site, then we'd classify them as Early Stage. This is one reason why Early Stage conversion rate will be MUCH lower than Middle and Late Stage. If we were optimizing a social media/networking or content site, we might not use these classifications at all. They'd have to be classified in groups that better matched the business goals of engagement, pages viewed, etc. Good comment.
[...] a general search term. Use your keyword knowledge to get a sense of visitors' differing stages of the buying process?  Are they just starting out and searching for general info? Do they already know exactly what [...]
[...] can be very persuasive and exciting. Finally, product configurators can be a great way to convert Early and Middle Stage buyers; those who aren't quite ready to pull out their credit card yet. The ability to save what [...]
Great article.It has certainly made me think.Thank you
In medical terms Schizophrenia is a disintegrating mind and very serious. You and anyone else who uses this in a colloquial English term should be ashamed of yourselves.
I wish there was a little script to read the mind of the customer and direct them to the appropriate landing page for their buying stage. =)
[...] I'm excited see how these sites continue to change the online retail space and morph the buying stages into a single-stage process. What I wouldn't give to have a look at their [...]
this theory for the customers will really helps a lot of peoples
Yes it is hard to try and achieve that balance for all the buying stages.
I think most I find are early to middle. You have to find and understand the stage, before you can close on it.
That is a very insightful point. A PPC campaign should be segmented that way.
[...] [...]
A grand every month might sound like alot, but honestly it isn't that bad when you think about the profits involved!
Great article $1000 a month is still a bit rich for me but I will try to incorporate your information into my sites and may be able to afford you some day.
Yes this is the ultimate problem with SEO and any internet advertising method.
Conversion rates aren't always ideal–so it really is hard sometime.
We've personally been seeing results by using an external company to track calls, on different numbers, per different ad campaigns.
That way you know which marketing campaign the sales are coming from…
Surprisingly–door hangers are working VERY well…just really expensive for the normal small business.
This is one reason why Early Stage conversion rate will be MUCH lower than Middle and Late Stage. If we were optimizing a social media/networking or content site, we might not use these classifications at all.
I have not category my business yet, but it will be a good idea. Early Stage should be much lower, but who knows!
Thanks for breaking it all down, it can be a bit overwhelming for companies new to online marketing but with insightful articles like this it really helps!

SAN DIEGO (AP) - A U.S.-born lieutenant of a Mexican cartel that smuggles drugs to California has pleaded guilty in San Diego to criminal charges in an agreement with prosecutors to limit his prison sentence to 30 years.
Armando Villareal Heredia pleaded guilty Friday to racketeering conspiracy and conspiracy to distribute controlled substances. He acknowledges in his plea agreement that he participated in murder, kidnappings and the smuggling of methamphetamine.
The 35-year-old can be sentenced to a maximum sentence of life in federal prison, but prosecutors agreed to ask for 30 years.
Villareal was extradited from Mexico last year to face charges. Known as "Gordo" - or "Fatty" in English - he was arrested in 2011 at the request of U.S. officials.

Glen Campbell's Daughter Fights to Bring Him Home
Glen Campbell has been in an Alzheimer's care facility since April, but his oldest daughter Debbie is fighting to take him home and provide care for him herself.
Glen Campbell has been in an Alzheimer's care facility since April, but his oldest daughter Debbie is fighting to take him home and provide care for him herself.
After Glen Campbell announced his Alzheimer's Disease in June 2011, he still performed for captive audiences who crooned with him to tunes like 'Gentle On My Mind' and 'Rhinestone Cowboy.' Sadly, now that the disease has begun to take its course, he is unlikely to perform for fans again.
The last "real" Mother's Day I had was in 1976. That's because around the Spring of that year, my Mom was diagnosed with colon cancer. Not nearly as much information was available then as there is now; and such screening procedures as colonoscopies weren't available on a widespread basis. So, by the time she realized something was wrong, and surgery was done to try to remove the cancerous section, the disease had already begun to spread into other areas of her body.
Glen Campbell's wife Kim, is speaking out about her husband after news broke that he has been moved into a facility that specializes in Alzheimer's care.
Glen Campbell has been moved to a facility that specializes in Alzheimer's care. The 77-year-old has been battling the disease for three years. Fans found out about it in 2011.
The iconic Glen Campbell has contributed to country music in lasting ways, and his presence in the industry (since 1958) will never be forgotten. However, the singer is battling Alzheimer's, and now more than ever, his family needs to remember the good memories -- because each day is a struggle.
Although country music legend Glen Campbell is working on an album of re-recorded hits, he struggles with Alzheimer's Disease daily. The singer's daughter, Ashley Campbell, gave an emotional plea for Alzheimer's research at a Senate hearing at Capitol Hill this week; her testimony is a grim reminder that this is a heartbreaking disease.
Glen Campbell's battle with Alzheimer's has forced him to stop touring but the 'Gentle on My Mind' hitmaker will still contribute to country music. He's planning an upcoming album of re-recorded hits, entitled 'See You There.'
One of Glen Campbell's signature hits at the height of his career was 'Galveston,' which reachedNo. 1 on the country and easy listening charts and No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1969. The song has become the unofficial anthem of its namesake beach city, and now Galveston, Texas has decided to use the tune for a tourism campaign.
As a finishing touch to his Farewell Tour, which has been criss-crossing the country over the past few months, Glen Campbell has released a tear-jerking new music video for 'A Better Place,' which will put a lump in the viewer's throat from the first bar of the song.
During last night's (September 6) near-capacity concert in Little Rock, Ark., the Robinson Center Music Hall audience was on their feet before the band ever played a note of music, the packed room delivering a heartfelt, standing ovation for Glen Campbell, Arkansas's native son and the country music icon on the final stops of his unprecedented Goodbye Tour.
Last summer, the world was saddened by the news that legendary country star Glen Campbell was in the beginning stages of his battle with Alzheimer's. Rather than laying low and disappearing from the music scene, Campbell announced a full-blown tour as his way to say thank you to his loyal fans throughout the years.

palm springs steak houses
- s
- samtron608 Jul 28, 2009 01:13 PM
going to that area next month. around the la quinta area. is LG's steakhouse still the place to go for steaks?
I believe a few more places opened up over the years there..chop house, arnold palmer, some others.
can anyone please let me know the best steakhouse in this area.
i loved LG years before, but i want to make sure they are still the top choice.
I don't know what LG's was like when you were last there, but I avoid it whenever my wife and I go to PS. We went to the Palm Springs restaurant with her parents, who live in Banning. We are used to steakhouses like Donovan's in San Diego, Ruth's Chris, Morton's, etc. The service was not as good as a Coco's and the prices for the quality of the food was way out of line. There are so many better places to go in the area now, like the ones you mentioned. Definitely try them before going back to LGs.
re: araknd
what a shame....last time i think i was there was 5 years ago. really enjoyed their signature steak (forget what they called it). i eat ruths and mortons all the time in LA so hoping to avoid those in PS.
is the Falls a good one?
re: samtron608
Haven't been to the Falls, but I hear that it's good. Arnold Palmer's is good and their wine list is extensive (at least it was last year).
I think the Falls is only in Palm Springs now, but call and check. They are offering a tom of specials, including prefix for 30 with lots of choices and mid-week wine specials.
Very close to La Quinta we like Vicky's of Santa Fe. My wife and I like the piano in the bar.
The Cliff House in La quinta is also offering specials. Good Luck.
I try to avoid placing singularly negative posts, but I must warn you about the very poor experience I had at Flemings a few months ago. I won't return, ever. Poor service, poor quality of food, all at a pretty high price tag. No, thank you.
Had steaks at Rattlesnake in Palm Desert a few months ago. Food was decent but somewhat overpriced. Brought two bottles of wine, manager waived corkage on one. View was nice and service was adequate.
I think they may close for a while during the summer.
Just got back from Indian Wells, and had a fantastic dinner at the Palm Desert location of LG's Steakhouse while there. The restaurant was not packed, but the food and service were really great, especially the food.
My table started with the escargots in alfredo sauce and the bacon wrapped scallops. I was afraid the alfredo sauce would be too thick but it wasn't - it was just as liquidy as the yummy butter. The bacon wrapped scallops were also really great. For my entree, I ordered the prime fillet, rare charred, and it was A-MAZINGly good. I've never had dry-age like that in LA. My mouth is watering just thinking about it again.
For dessert, I shared the chocolatey cake thing with the vanilla bean ice cream that LG's gets from Santa Barbara. The cake was nothing special, but the ice cream was really good.
Our server, Victor, said the place used to get really packed years ago, but no one new to the area really knows about it because it's easy to miss when driving by due to the new buildings around them. I'm so glad we got this recommendation from someone we know who visits the area frequently because we may have just decided to go to Ruth's Chris, which we actually passed on the way to LG's.
i'd steer clear of The Falls if you have other options - i had a totally forgettable meal there a while back. and when i say totally forgettable, i mean that i couldn't recall what i ate there if my life depended on it. what i do remember, however, is frustratingly inattentive service and tacky atmosphere.
Just got back from P.S. last week. Had a wonderful filet mignon Oscar at the ChopHouse -- great service, great french onion soup there too. Also had a fabulous Steak Diane (prepared tableside) at Melvyn's at the Ingleside Inn. Elegant, but not at all stuffy, and had a great pour.
Of the steakhouses we've tried in the valley our favorite for food and ambience has been the Chop House in Palm Desert, although it's been two or three years since we've gone there. Just looked at their website and they're running a summer special prix fixe at both locations that includes starter, entree, and side, then dessert is an extra $3. Wish we were going before the summer ends.
We wnet to the Cliff House on Thursday. They have a daily prefix for 24. We each had the rack of lamb. The rack on the ala carte menu is 31.
I had the caeser salad, rack and capacino cheescake.
My wife had the brie, rack and vanilla bean creme brulet.
On Thursday wine is 1/2 price. We had a great bottle of Duckhorn for 30. This is a deal that can't be beat. They also have a great bar menu with a happy hour.

Damaged Extension Cord Causes Outlets to Stop Working
By Dave Rongey - Summary:
How to Reset GFCI Outlets and Circuit Breakers to Restore Electrical Power
Locating and Testing GFCI Outlets and Circuit Breakers
This electrical question came from: Christin in California
Dave The Electrician's Reply:
Thanks for your electrical question Christin
Resetting GFI Outlets and Circuit Breakers
- When the extension cord was damaged it caused a circuit protection device to trip off.
- This may have been a GFI outlet or a GFCI circuit breaker, or it may have affected a regular circuit breaker.
- Because you have noticed that there is no power to more than one circuit locations then I would recommend that all of the home circuit breakers be turned off and then turn of the main electrical service breaker as well because it is very possible that one of the main power circuits may have tripped off.
Restoring Electrical Power to the Home
How to Reset GFCI Outlets and Circuit Breakers to Restore Electrical Power
- To restore power make sure each circuit breaker has been pushed all the way into the OFF position, and then turn the circuit breaker back on starting with the Main electrical circuit breaker.
Testing and Resetting GFI Devices
- If the power has not been restored to the affected circuits then locate all of the GFI devices and press the TEST and RESET buttons to make sure that they have been reset and are functioning properly.
- If this does not solve the problem then contact a qualified licensed electrical contractor who will provide a series of test that will reveal the problem.

The People's Choice Awards went down last night in LA and while we of course need to talk about the big winners, we must first focus on what award really stole the show. I'm talking about Taylor Swift winning for best revenge outfit. If there was any doubt that Harry Styles and Taylor Swift were done for good, Swift quickly put all thoughts of reconciliation to rest.
Known for her puffy prom dresses and fairytale gowns on the red carpet, Swift did a 180 with her wardrobe, which included giving a 180 degree view of her chest. These are two words I never thought I'd say in a sentence about Taylor Swift: side boob.
In conclusion, they are never, ever getting back together and Swift is getting the ultimate revenge by looking. Like. That. Dang gurl. Work it out.

Staff Photo by Angela Lewis/Chattanooga Times Free Press Taylor Bowman, Nicole Tidwell, Jouy Thomas, Katie Cockrill and Emily Kohntopp, from left, work during their Public Relations Campaigns class at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga on Wednesday.
Tres Wittum gets a little antsy sitting through college classes day in and day out.
It runs in the family, Mr. Wittum said. His father dropped out of college at 21 to start a career, only to return for a bachelor's degree 20 years later.
Now his dad's always harping on the importance of college.
"Pay now or pay later," Mr. Wittum said, mimicking the advice.
Still, his father's life lessons don't keep the UTC senior, who's majoring in communications, from thinking about canning school and doing what he thinks men are supposed to do -- earn money.
"I hate school. You feel like you are treading water. I am constantly looking at how can I get out of here," he said.
Colleges and universities in Tennessee and Georgia are having a hard time selling the value of a college degree to young men such as Mr. Wittum. Even with extraordinary enrollment booms at colleges driven by the recession, the gap between male and female students is staggering. At some area colleges, the split is nearly 2-to-1 in favor of females.
"You wonder: Where are the boys? What happened to them?" said Dr. Henry Codjoe, director of institutional research at Dalton State College in Dalton, Ga. "This is something that hasn't been resolved. We are still trying to figure out what we should do. Something is going on that we need to get our hands on. It's getting worse."
While state and national higher education leaders laud colleges for drawing women -- once a minority among degree holders -- into post-secondary education, many are starting to wonder if schools are leaving young men behind.
The gender gap, which has persisted for more than a decade, may keep states from reaching lofty goals for improving the number of college graduates now set by national and state policy.
"We have an under-represented population that we need to focus on," said Dr. Carl Hite, president of Cleveland State, which has a 39 percent male enrollment. "If the population is 50/50, our college population does not reflect the community breakdown. If that is true, then we have some work to do."
Some states, including Georgia, have launched initiatives to try and increase the number of black males attending college. The Association of Public and Land-grant Universities and the College Board, two national groups, recently began initiatives and research to find ways to lure as many men to colleges as women.
"If the trend in graduation for males ... continues at its current rate, the competitive knowledge base of the nation's overall workforce will be impacted," said a report called the "American Male Imperative" put together by the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities.
One of the biggest concerns about colleges trending toward female enrollment is that it doesn't reflect U.S. demographic data, officials said.
The U.S. Census Bureau reports that the traditional college-age population -- ages 20 to 29 -- is 50.7 percent men and 49.2 percent women. Males comprise 42.8 percent of the college population, and women make up 57.2 percent, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.
These numbers have incited some debate over whether colleges should start campaigns, scholarships and recruiting efforts targeted at males, just as they have done with women and minorities, officials said.
"It is the only way to address the gap," Dr. Codjoe said. "We need a balance."
But first, colleges and universities must understand why women are outpacing men in college attainment and grades.
Some argue that middle schools and high schools have given favorable treatment to women or that they need to teach boys differently than women. There also are arguments that societal pressures and ideas about masculinity teach boys to devalue education.
Male -- 44.1 percent
Female -- 55.6 percent
Male -- 43.4 percent
Female -- 56.6 percent
Male -- 42.8 percent
Female -- 57.2 percent

Having been one of only three boys in a high school honors program with 20 women, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga senior Daniel Hunley said he's always lived with the education gender gap.
Teachers treated the boys differently, but the real roadblock was peer pressure, he said.
"I think that being really intelligent in high school for a female is a plus socially," Mr. Hunley said. "There were not a lot of popular guys in the honors program, but that wasn't true for girls."
But an upper hand in high school and college is one thing, getting ahead in the work world is another, he said.
"I have always kind of heard about the big gap between men and women in the work place," he said. "When I got to college, it was all the girls that were succeeding, that are known as the really, really smart ones.
"I guess the real world is a little bit different than college."

Why should they bother? They can flip burgers without all that learning stuff.
Meaningful, fulfilling jobs no longer exist in any quantity...they have gone overseas. All that is left is moving other people's money around; and men are basically doers and producers, not dreamers.
To top it all off, the government will soon take care of all men's needs so why try to excel? The slothful and the incompetent are promoted along with the wise and diligent; unions [and poor teachers] see to that. All an education will get you is longer hours and higher taxes to be given to those "smarter" than you who choose NOT to work or go to school. Finally, sloth allows more time for video gaming, texting, tweeting, etc...you know, the important things.
Men have been ridiculed throughout our society for decades, now. The days of "Father Knows Best" are gone, if they ever existed. Well, you are now reaping what you have sown...the idea that men, as a group, are incompetent, beer-drinking fat slobs and couch-potatoes who have neither the sense nor the ability to pour pee out of a boot without [humorously] spilling it down their shirt. Although they generally have their family's help in doing that...
That's what YOU, academia and the media, have done.
Nikita Khrushchev once famously said, "We will bury you". He meant, of course, that communism would help us to bury ourselves...and we are much more than halfway there today.
"the idea that men, as a group, are incompetent, beer-drinking fat slobs and couch-potatoes who have neither the sense nor the ability to pour pee out of a boot without [humorously] spilling it down their shirt."

Porter offered tips for helping green building pros get the most out of appraisals:
Share a copy of Marshall & Swift Green Building Costs with your appraiser. The brief tutorial on new and retrofit green building puts a monetary value on hundreds of high-performance features.
Ask local Realtors to implement the National Association of Realtors' Green MLS Tool Kit. About 20 to 40 multiple listing services across the country have already taken part, Porter said.
Ask lenders about the FHA's 203k loan, "the closest thing there is right now to a true green mortgage."
Remind lenders that according to the Appraisal Institute, for every $1 in annual energy savings, a home goes up $20 in value.
Direct appraisers and lenders to www.dsireusa.org for comprehensive information on state, local, utility, and federal incentives and policies that promote renewable energy and energy efficiency.
See www.energystar.gov for a list of energy-efficient mortgages (EEMs) for new construction and energy improvement mortgages (EIMs) for retrofits.
Ask your HERS rater to fill out a "Residential Energy Report" form, which is necessary when applying for EEMs and EIMs.
Porter warned that green building advocates have a long road ahead in working to achieve full recognition by appraisers, especially with the current economy's super-tight lending standards.
"Underwriters are already dotting their i's and crossing their t's," he said.

Ginyah's Random Ramblings
If the bio wasn't too much info for ya, here's your chance to see what's currently happening in my life, plus I'll throw in a few wacky videos and pictures. Enjoy!
I Declare Today KID Day!!!
by Ginyah
posted Oct 9 2010 8:12AM
My nieces came in from out-of-town yesterday (well technically today - midnight on the dot). Have you ever tried to sleep with a couple candied-up kids around? I found out, quickly, that it is an impossible task...but I digress.
My parents have some things to do today (errands, work, etc), so good ol' Aunt Ginyah is going to be the Event Coordinator for the day. Considering today is a "Cheat Day" from my diet, this will be dangerous. hahaha! Cookies, candy, ice cream and pizza - WATCH OUT!
We always have an amazing time when they're in! I try to make things extra special for them. I remember being that age looking up to my several aunts (my dad being the only boy out of eight children and my mom has an older sister).
One of my most prominent memories is my aunt Sissy and her crafts. I thought that was the neatest thing EVER! One particular item she made was this gorgeous, pearlescent pinecone Christmas ornament. I wanted that thing for years! It wasn't until Christmas before last she surprised me with it. I'll have to find that picture and attach it for your viewing pleasure - I'm making a crazy "YES! It's MINE!" Gollum-like face.
Anyway...once I get off the air this morning, I'll head home to freshen up and receive my orders from my favorite 4 and 7 year-old.
Wish me luck!

text: Tommy Lasorda on V. Stiviano: 'I Hope She Gets Hit With a Car' Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart Sports 7 May 2014 post a comment Former Los Angeles Dodgers manager and Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda hopes V. Stiviano, the woman Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling told to not bring "black people" to his basketball games, gets hit by a car. Lasorda, 86, made his impromptu remarks on Tuesday after being asked about Sterling, whom NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banned from the league for life after his racist remarks on an audio recording that TMZ obtained and released. "And I don't wish that girl any bad luck but I hope she gets hit with a car," Lasorda said in an interview with Erin Guy of WPBF 25 News in Florida. Lasorda said he has been Sterling's friend for 30 years and Sterling's comments, though wrong, were not surprising. "I've been a friend of that guy's for 30 years," Lasorda said. "It doesn't surprise me that he said those things. And he shouldn't have said it. He just hurt himself by talking too much and doing things he shouldn't be doing." Stiviano has said that she was Sterling's "silly rabbit" and not his "whore." Though she is being investigated for allegedly extorting Sterling, Stiviano, through her attorney, has maintained that Sterling consented to the recording, she did not leak the audio, and there was a third party present during the conversation.
