Forgotten Music: The Vocal Stylings of Nick "The Rebel" Adams
Nick's voice aside, these are good well-produced songs. The instrumentation is fine and the background singers first-rate. With today's technology they probably could have made Nick sound as good as Frankie Laine. As it is . . . well, you be the judge.
The label for "Johnny Yuma, The Rebel" credits Andrew J. Fenady, the show's creator and screenwriter, as a co-writer on the song. The lyrics, I presume. I was surprised to see that "Tired and Lonely Rebel" was co-written by Dorsey Burnette. Surprised, because I find it the weakest of the Rebel-related songs. And Burnett took full credit for "It Could Have Been Different", which is a real turkey. Burnette penned some fine tunes back when, including "Tall Oak Tree". Tsk, tsk.
A tip on playing these songs: If you listen to a song all the way to the end, you should have no problem playing another. BUT, if you stop one before the finish, the system can get touchy. It may say "Connecting" and never actually connect. If that happens, just refresh the page and you should be good to go.
Johnny Yuma, The Rebel (Markowitz-Fenady) by Nick Adams
Born a Rebel (S Ross-J Haskell) by Nick Adams
Tired and Lonely Rebel (Dorsey Burnette-Joe Osborn) by Nick Adams
Bull Run (S Silbert-R Freed) by Nick Adams
The Ballad of Scatter Gun Hill (Livingston-Adelson) by Nick Adams
It Could Have Been Different (Dorsey Burnette) by Nick Adams
I wish I could report that The Rebel series is commercially available on DVD. Not so, though you can find some decent homemade efforts on eBay. There is, however, a novel (of sorts) by Andrew J. Fenady. I must advise you it reads like a synopsis of several episodes of the series, but for those needing a Johnny Yuma fix, it should do the trick.

Now, that's forgotten music. And not bad. Kinda, sorta.
I grew up listening to the Johnny Cash song. But to this day, I've never seen an episode of Johnny Yuma, The Rebel. Where does it rank in the hierarchy of western shows?

When I was a kid The Rebel was one of my favorite westerns, along with Maverick, Cheyenne, Zorro, HGWT, Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson. I watched a lot of others, too, but those are the ones I remember most fondly. I had the official Rebel cap gun and holster - AND that awesome scattergun.
This show is reportedly Ted Turner's favorite, and I'm surprised he hasn't put the whole series out on DVD.

Boy, does this bring back a ton of memories! I loved THE REBEL, too.

Seeing this, remember me the TV westerns broadcasted here in Spain: Bonanza, ,and... a series starred by James Garner. Not Maverick, another one. Te man of Virginia, or something like that.

Are you thinking of The Virginian, starring James Drury? I watched that too, though it was never a favorite.

Thats it! Yeah. This series was broadcasted before i was old enough to talk (i think... those years here were... difficult, if you know about europea history)ñ

Well, Deka, one of the first running jokes on the US comedy series SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE in 1975 was mocking the Spanish fasciest/Falangist government's terror at having to confirm the death of Franco. So some of us know a little.
James Garner's other (late-period) western series, in the early '70s, was called NICHOLS.
Well, Evan, as one of Warner's idol-"musicians," in a sense Adams and Miriam Makeba, when she signed to Reprise in the mid '60s, were labelmates...

Chevy Chase as SATURDAY NIGHT's "WEEKEND UPDATE" newscaster would often have among his first fake-news items each week something like, "This just in: Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead. He is expected to remain so indefinitely."

Hmm, must learn to type sometime..."fascist" shouldn't be that hard to spell...also, Guillermo Del Toro's films (THE DEVIL'S BACKBONE, EL LABERINTON DEL FAUNO/PAN'S LABYRINTH) have been doing a good job introducing at least some of the younger generation here to some sense of Fascist Spain.

Sony Xperia Z2 lives after being submerged in salt water for 6 weeks
But don't talk about the waterproofing restrictions to one Alexander Maxén from Gothenburg, Sweden. Good old Alex was waterskiing while on vacation, and while this might seem strange for most of us who keep track of our phones every second, he had left his Sony Xperia Z2 on the seat of the boat. So as you might imagine, once the craft started cutting through the waves, the phone fell into Davey Jones' locker. With the sea bed more than 10 meters deep, trying to recover the device was impossible at the time.'
Once they were back on terra firma, Alexander called the phone, which continued to ring, proving that it was still working (otherwise it would have gone directly to voicemail). Six weeks later, a friend of Alexander went scuba diving and retrieved the Xperia Z2. The bottom line? The back glass was shattered and the battery had completely discharged. But the LED indicator did light up when the phone was plugged in. And once recharged, the phone worked perfectly, even making phone calls.
Alexander decided not to repair the external damage, deciding to keep the phone in this state as a reminder of the six weeks that it spent in salt water, 10 meters below the surface. You can take a look at the Sony Xperia Z2 after it was recovered, by clicking on the slideshow below.

16. Genza (Posts: 254; Member since: 12 Mar 2014)
You're absolutely right nokia build quality is very good maybe even the best.
But its only 2 meters down in fresh water, it also took almost 6 hours to clean the whole phone and four days on a radiator to revived it.
17. avalon2105 (Posts: 100; Member since: 12 Jul 2014)
I think it was in the lake for 3.5 months so it was fresh water. That is also impressive but considering how fast salt water corrodes metal this seems just a little more impressive.

It seems you have no idea of what you're talking about.
You can get a pretty good explanation from wax33, but in short VLF (Very Low Frequency) waves can penetrate for about 40 meters into saltwater.

Sony Xperia Z2 lives after being submerged in salt water for 6 weeks does not surprise me at all, because there are several other phones that have almost the same story even though the phone is not waterproof.
But the thing that amazed me is Z2 was able to survive even with the broken back cover.
19. Astoni (Posts: 563; Member since: 28 Sep 2013)
Btw its Göteborg ;) not gothenburg xD
21. skymitch89 (Posts: 1098; Member since: 05 Nov 2010)
The IP 58 certification means that it is certified to survive in at least 5ft of water for at least 30min.
Also, in my opinion, this story would be more believable if there was some kind of proof, like that guy that had that waterproof case on his iPhone 4 (or was it 4s?) that was recording all the way to the ocean floor. Having it tested for salt water residue would only mean that it "went for a swim" in salt water.
23. vuyonc (Posts: 341; Member since: 24 Feb 2014)
Hopefully Sony's reading this and make their beautiful phones even tougher!

Fake .... hard to believe.
34. eldyagustius (Posts: 146; Member since: 30 Oct 2013)
yeah sure. my friend swam with it in the sea and got it broken after a few minutes. I don't believe sony because many of its users complained with the water-resistant feature it has.

Found March 30, 2012 on Pro Boxing Fans:
PLAYERS: Manny Pacquiao, Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley, Lamont Peterson, Amir Khan, Bob Arum
In this special 10-minute video interview, Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer hits on a lot of intriguing subjects in boxing right now, including the potential of finally seeing Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao. Schaefer also talks on Mayweather's upcoming fight against Miguel Cotto, and the co-feature of the evening, Saul Alvarez vs. Shane Mosley. He's talking to begin with though about Golden Boy's new deal with BoxNation to showcase fights in the UK, providing two fight cards per month: one high level HBO or Showtime caliber type card, and one of their more prospect-laden, Solo Boxeo type cards. As mentioned, Schaefer hits on a lot of different things here. He also talks about the rematch coming up between Lamont Peterson and Amir Khan, he talks about the Ring Kings PPV, and whether or not Mayweather will take on Canelo at some point down the road. According to him, Canelo is asking for that all the time. He gives his thoughts on whether or not Mayweather-Pacquiao w...

Leonardo Trattoria does not serve ice water!
About 2 weeks ago a group of us went to Leonardo Trattoria at 709 St. Charles Ave after attending a concert for Wednesdays at the Square. When the waitress came by we all ordered alcoholic drinks. After she delivered our drinks, we asked for ice waters for the table. She informed us that their policy is that they do not serve ice water at the restaurant. Now we all at the table found this to be unbelievable. Let's face it, Leonardo Trattoria is far far from fine dining in a city such as New Orleans. Also fine dining establishments such as, Commander's Palace, do serve ice water.
After being told we could not have something so simple as water that is not bottled, we asked to speak to a manager. The manager went on to explain that Leonardo's has high standards and that they will not serve ice water. One person at our table then asked if we could possibly have filtered water to which the manager said, "you all can just leave, no need to pay for these drinks!"
Now I am not sure what the owners of such an establishment created as a business plan, but this move would seem to be stupid to a table of 6 looking to eat and drink. What do you think?
Commander's Palace Restaurant
1403 Washington Ave, New Orleans, LA 70130
Leonardo Trattoria
709 Saint Charles Ave, New Orleans, LA 70130
re: CharlieH
You are so right but I guess we were caught completely off guard by this.
re: CharlieH
may not be a matter of word -- i would have asked for the manager just to ensure they understood fully how anti-customer this policy is. otherwise, how will management know?
re: CharlieH
I would want to speak with the manager just to find out why such a policy would be in place at all, not to make sure the server was right or wrong.
That's mind boggling! Especially when you consider how many tourists probably come in after walking around in the NO heat, and want some water to help cool off before their meal. No one would have had to tell me to leave.
I drink gallons if ice water..I have a big glass right now...and even inferior ice is better than nothing. I have not darkened that place's door and after hearing this I never will. The bottled water rip-off needs to be shut-dopwn. (In NEw York I have had them say "Oh, you want Hudson River cancer water instead of $22 (whatever is trendy)?" I respond that Manhattan tap water is some of the best and tastiest in the world. If driving through I always fill up several bottles for the road.)
I had a birthday dinner there planned weeks in advance, and when we showed up the owner told us that the chef had taken the night off and that he would cook for us. Needless to say the food was not good.
nolajulie, what kind of water do they cook with there?
That is bizarre. Can you imagine being a server there and having to tell that to every customer? I'd quit.
A Chef that once had several well regarded restaurants in New Orleans, and who trained in Europe, once told me that one of the most basic marks of a very good and serious restaurant is that fresh cold water appears immediately and is constantly refilled/refreshed.
That may be old school but I don't disagree with it.
re: collardman
A-men. A waiter once told me that they had been trained to bring the alcohol, some snacks etc but NOT to provide iced water. The waiter was then to bring some extra bread--after you and party sat for five or so minutes--and casually say "Oh! would you like some bottled water with that?" All your parched self hears is "water" and next thing you know he's made a $20 sale. Another routine is to keep bringing new bottles, already opened..few people refused them, I was told.
re: hazelhurst
But then, you ONLY have Voss around, so how would you know? [Grin]
Yes, that was a trend, but in the US, Europe and the UK, it seems to be fading a bit, and about time.
I have lived in some areas of the US, where droughts are more commonplace, than we'd have liked, and during such times, water was not normally offered, or delivered upon seating, but I have never encountered any restaurant, that refused to serve it.
Even in California, where every crumb is often analyzed to see how some source might be depleted, there has never been an issue.
I have seen restaurants, that wished to sell a bottle of Fiji, or Voss at US $ 20/btl., but never one that refused to serve water, along with a paying customer's food, and/or drink.
In several recent experiences, we have had the waitstaff offer water, and then do a good, efficient run-down of the "levels," often ending with filtered (or double-filtered) local tap water. I think that the old scheme of up-selling higher-end waters might be fading, and some restaurants want to fight that.
This is quite odd, and would only hope that the management would see and respond to this thread.
Are you sure that there is not something that you are not sharing with us here?
re: Bill Hunt
I certianly hope it is fading. It took a fairly lethal hit when the whole issue of wasting resources via the bottles became trendy. Kinda like when novelsit David F. Wallace threw sand in the gears with his "Consider the Lobster" piece. I predict a similar but temporary implosion of molecular gastronomy when people consider just what waste is involved in the cryogenics of freezing their apricot.
re: Suzy Wong
Oh, it's the place with the flat screen tvs playing mob movies....
re: NoNoNanette
fatty's forum???? what's that. maybe they should post here so WE understand.
re: califkatie
califkatie the forum I mentioned in an earlier post explains the GM's response, Tom Fitzmorris Forum:
re: Suzy Wong
thanks,suzy. i went over to tom's forum to read the response. we have the Natura system at a lot of restaurants in Los angeles. most places i go to don't charge for it. and they also offer free tap water to those who chose it. oh well, not that i will go there( Leonardo's), just because i have lot's of other places i prefer to go to in New Orleans.
re: NoNoNanette
I call bullshit on what the GM said. If he thinks that the city puts antifreeze in the water to keep the pipes from freezing he is a complete idiot and/or a liar.
re: kibbles
I just put a call into the S&WB about the antifreeze thing, I guess we'll find out the truth on that note.
re: randeaux
Maybe you can get a testimonial. I can see the ads now. " New Orleans is a town of discriminating eaters, among the world's best! New Orleans' Sewerage & Water Board uses ONLY X Brand antifreeze for its patrons!" Good enough for New Orleans, downright perfect for Fargo, ND.
Mixx in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay does not serve non-bottled water as well.We wondered what they boiled pasta in.

Busy stuffing the benches with their creatures before they lose the power to do so next year. Once they´re flushed hold your reps/senator´s feet to the fire to clean them out. The congress controls the federal courts, even to what type of cases they can hear - so clean the libtards off the benches and out of our lives. You won´t keep seeing voter id ´struck down´ by federal judges who don´t actually have the authority to intefere with a state´s election process - but sure act like they do. More states should man up and tell them "10th amendment, baby, go pound sand".

There are several artists who go by the name Duffy. The most notable of these is Welsh singer-songwriter Duffy (born Aimée Ann Duffy ).
1) '60s-sounding Welsh blues singer Aimee Anne Duffy - known professionally as Duffy - released her debut single Rockferry in December 2007. After relocating to London in 2006, she came to the attention of Rough Trade. She is often compared to late '60s soul diva Dusty Springfield and has experienced significant mainstream success with the single Mercy reaching #1 in the United Kingdom. The debut album, Rockerferry, was released in March 2008, and also made #1 on the UK album chart. Bernard Butler of Suede worked extensively on the album, lending it an authentic and wonderfully produced lush '60s sound.
The 24-year-old's debut album, Rockferry, triumphed at the 2009 BRIT Awards for British Album, British Female Solo Artist, and British Breakthrough Act.
Official website of (Aimee Anne) Duffy: http://www.iamduffy.com/
2) Duffy was an American rock band led by Eric Kehoe. Their first full length album, Out of Doors, was released in 2007.
3) 'Duffy' was the alias used by British singer-songwriter Stephen Duffy during 1995-1998.
4) Duffy is a psychedelic/garage band from the '60s whose song "Come Back, Come Back" appears on the Beyond The Calico Wall compilation. "Come Back Come Back" was produced by famed Nashville producer Buddy Killen, but with tons of tape flanging and echo, it is far more psychedelic than the average Killen production.

Stumptown partners with Poler for new camp coffee kit
Lauded Portland, Oregon coffee roasters Stumptown and outdoor-gear specialists Poler debut a camp-ready brew kit.
Mon Sep 30 2013
CommentsAdd +
Calling all trail trekkers, backpack adventurers and round-the-clock cubicle dwellers: Stumptown—the Portland, Oregon, java juggernaut—has teamed up with camp-gear gurus Poler to make this smart, on-the-go coffee kit, launched in August. Utile and compact, the durable pack is filed with top-of-the-line goods needed to make a rousing cup o' joe anywhere (if you have the means to boil water). Inside the leather-strapped carryall, find a sleek, steel Porlex burr mill—grind ranges from French-press-coarse to espresso-fine—an AeroPress coffee maker with paper filters, two lightweight enamel mugs and a handy brewing guide. And when the only other caffeine source within eyeshot is a roadside fast-food pot or spectacularly bland office perk, the included 12-ounce bag of Stumptown's robust, chocolate-rich Holler Mountain roast is an outright godsend. Don't let the price give you sticker shock—it's surprisingly economical for a first-rate eye-opener, when you consider the average American drops 1,000-plus buckaroos on coffee each year. Stumptown Coffee Roasters, 30 W 8th St at MacDougal St (347-414-7802, stumptowncoffee.com). $125.

Cook Time:
10 mins
1 hr 30 mins
This bread freezes delightfully, if you slice it and wrap pieces it's fantastic to grab in the morning going out of the door. To have at night as a snack, or to pull out for tea with friends :). I hate nuts.. but you could add 1 1/2 cups walnuts or pecans if desired. EDIT:When I wrote this I failed to see how I'd missed the "simple" steps. I have a kitchenaid stand mixer with one of those pour in spouts. I drop my wet stuff in the bowl, put on the spout, put the arm down and put it on mix. I just drop in the dry as it mixes. I think it really takes me like 10 minutes max, to actually make this, and that's with the putting stuff in the bowl and adding the attachment. One poster said she'd had problems with a "baking powder taste", just try cutting it back. Cut your recipe in half and try 1 loaf, if you still have the problem, cut the powder back by 1/8th of a tsp.

MINTURN, Colo. (AP) - U.S. Highway 24 near Minturn has been reopened after workers cleared a rockslide that brought down more than 150 tons of rock onto the roadway early Tuesday.
The rockslide occurred about halfway between Minturn and Redcliff and caused significant damage, punching holes in the highway.
The Vail Daily reports that a 20-year-old woman suffered minor injuries when she drove into one of those holes.
The unidentified woman was treated and released at Vail Valley Medical Center.

* Grow a backyard garden
* Avoid fast food
* Buy produce from local farmers
Source: Dr. Vandana Shiva
A world-renowned environmental leader had a strong message Tuesday for Chattanooga fans of Whoppers, Krystals and McNuggets.
"To anyone who grabs anything because it's accessible, cheap," said Dr. Vandana Shiva, of India, "You might think that is sustainable in terms of time management, but it's horribly non-sustainable in terms of body management."
A vice president of Slow Food International, Shiva had just finished a tour of Crabtree Farms, where fruits and vegetables rule, pesticides are panned and plastic is shunned "out of conviction," according to executive director Joel Houser.
The Benwood Foundation funded Shiva's visit and public lecture Tuesday night at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga through Gaining Ground, a three-year, $1.65 million investment to establish a local food economy.
Over and over, Shiva encouraged Chattanooga residents, even "the tiniest child with an edible school yard," to grow their own food, eat organic and shun mass distributors.
"Corporations decide how they'll stuff us with all the nonsense of the world," she said. "We need to widen the concept of the price of food beyond the labeled price, which hides all kinds of costs."
Despite her comments, a Benwood-backed study shows how difficult it is to eat healthy in what the report called "food deserts."
In the five regions of Hamilton County with the highest rates of food stamp usage — Amnicola/East Chattanooga, Downtown, Bushtown/Highland Park, Ridgedale/Oak Grove/Clifton Hills and South Chattanooga — nearly 90 percent of the food retailers accepting food stamps are gas stations and convenience stores that rarely sell fruits and vegetables, according to a 2009 Ochs Center for Metropolitan Studies report.
Some of those neighborhoods have the highest poverty and obesity ratings in Hamilton County, the report shows.
Gaining Ground director Jeff Pfitzer said his organization has spent a lot of time trying to bring healthy food to those communities, including sending chefs to urban schools to give students cooking lessons on simple, healthy dishes.
He said a website with all the recipes would be helpful.
"Then again," he said, "we have a challenge of poverty where websites are far from ubiquitous in these communities."
But Shiva gave an example of why she believes local food options in Chattanooga one day will trump the quick Walmart or grocery store run.
Every morning, a "tiny vendor" visits her doorstep in India to deliver potatoes, eggplants and tomatoes, she said, and she doesn't have to move — "what could be easier than that?"
"I think each of us was designed to be creative," Shiva said. "In the food system, to create means to produce."
A great "feel good" article. I can assure you that if you gave free seed and veggie plants in the areas with high food stamp usage,the food stamp usage would not be reduced. In addition, not one household in fifty would even attempt to grow its own food. Food stamps have become a large part of the culture which has developed since the LBJ days. Dr. Shiva should understand that corporations create the foundations similar to Benwood, which fund her efforts. Without them, she might be scratching out a living in her own garden plot, not living off the hard work of real producers.

Miri Ben-Ari (Hebrew: מירי בן-ארי) (born December 4, 1978 in Ramat Gan,[1] Israel) is an Israeli-born American violinist. She currently resides in the United States.
Ben-Ari grew up playing classical music;[2] she started training at age 5[3] and at age 12, she was presented with a violin by Isaac Stern.[4] During her mandatory Israeli military service, she was chosen to play for the Israeli Army String Quartet.[5] During her stint in the Israeli military, she heard an album by Charlie Parker and immediately fell in love with jazz; she later said "My soul was sold."[6] Following her service, she moved from Israel to New York [7] in hopes of using her classical training on stage[2] and attended the Jazz department at The New School, but was expelled after two semesters due to poor attendance caused by Ben-Ari playing gigs to pay the rent.[4][6]
She released her first solo CD Sahara in 1999.
Her persistence earned her an appearance on BET's 106 & Park; the viewer response netted her a return visit a few weeks later. Her performances caught the eye of Jay-Z, who invited her to play as one of the headliners of New York radio station Hot 97's annual Summer Jam concert in 2001, where she netted a standing ovation.[4][5] Around the same time, a mutual friend introduced Ben-Ari to Wyclef Jean, who invited her to perform with him at his Carnegie Hall show, the first by a hip-hop artist at the venue.[8]
In 2003, she released her second CD Temple of Beautiful, and followed that up with a live CD the following year entitled Live at the Blue Note.
She won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Song in 2005 as one of the co-writers of Kanye West's Jesus Walks.[9] In 2005, she released her fourth CD and first to focus on hip-hop style, entitled The Hip-Hop Violinist. As part of the promotion for it, she was part of Reebok's "I Am What I Am" global advertising campaign; Reebok was also part of the video for the first single from the CD, "We Gonna Win".[10]
In 2006, she co-founded Gedenk (Yiddish for "remember"), an organization dedicated to promoting education about the Holocaust in the United States.[3][11]
In 2007 she received the International Jewish Woman To Watch of 2007 Award and in 2008 she received the "2008 Israel Film Festival Visionary Award," "The Jewish Federation" award and "the American Society for Yad Vashem" Award.
In 2009, she released Symphony of Brotherhood, an instrumental track featuring Martin Luther King's I Have a Dream speech. In part due to the song, she received the first Martin Luther King, Jr. Israeli Award in January 2008 at a ceremony hosted by the President of Israel, Shimon Peres.[12]
In March 2011 Ben-Ari was invited to the White House by Michelle Obama as part of a Women's History Month celebration,[3] to perform and to be honored as a "remarkabe Woman". In July 2011 she performed at the 2011 Miss Universe China pageant.[1] and in October 2011 she performed at the Martin Luther King Jr. Presidential memorial dedication in Washington, DC.
In 2011, she was named by Ynet as one of the 10 most influential Israelis in America.[13]
In 2012, Ben-Ari was invited to perform for U.S. President Barack Obama
In 2013 she was appointed as "Goodwill Ambassador of Music" at the United Nations Association-Brazil.
In 2013 she participated as a guest musician in recording a track Intense together with Armin Van Buuren. The track is the first track of the new album Intense, performed by Armin Van Buuren in May 2013.
Miri Ben-Ari is signed with the Harman Kardon brand as a Beautiful Sound artist to be featured globally in advertisements and in special appearances as an ambassador for the Harman Kardon "Beautiful Sound" brand campaign.

Because Briana was suffering from a serious bout of motion sickness, coupled with the GT3′s super hardcore stiff race clutch, she was not comfortable driving the car. After a few minutes, she had to get out. As a result, the producer took the wheel to do a more in-depth car review. Enjoy!

Olympic gold medalist and five-time world champion Leonard has done what retired fighters just don't do. He's crossed over from the exploited to the exploiter. He has become a boxing promoter. But Leonard isn't much like the parasitic thugs who control professional pugilism. He says he wants to make boxing shows more competitive instead of producing snoozers staged to build up the records of contenders. In two programs so far this year at the American Airlines Arena, both televised on ESPN2, Sugar Ray Leonard Boxing delivered two IBA world-title fights, including Roy Jones, Jr.'s first-ever bout in Miami, and some quality undercard bouts. You can't give Leonard all the credit for raising the boxing profile in Miami. The first fight program at the AAA -- Don King's Felix Trinidad-Mamadou Thiam matchup in July 2000 -- sold out, and the regular televised shows at Miccosukee Indian Gaming aren't all bad. Some sportswriters are saying Miami is making a comeback as a major fight venue. And the presence of Leonard, who recently signed Miami-based Cuban star Diobelys Hurtado, is definitely a catalyst.

text: The National Breast Cancer Information for Consumers Audit What is the National Breast Cancer Audit? The National Breast Cancer Audit, a review of breast cancer surgery, has been running for more than 10 years. The audit is designed to ensure patients receive the best possible care and that breast surgeons, who are committed to improving care, can get the information they need to achieve the highest standards of patient care. The National Breast Cancer Audit collects information from surgeons in Australia and New Zealand about the treatment of breast cancer patients. This allows surgeons to assess their practice and compare it with their peers and industry standards. By participating in the audit, your surgeon is demonstrating a commitment to improving the quality of care for women with breast cancer. The information you give helps to: • compile Australian and New Zealand statistics about treating breast cancer; • create a practice profile for your surgeon with details of his/her patients; • continuously upgrade care for breast cancer patients. Who conducts it? The National Breast Cancer Audit is a clinical audit of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) Breast Surgery Section. The audit is managed by the Australian Safety and Efficacy of New Interventional Procedures-Surgical (ASERNIP-S), a RACS research program in the Research, Audit and Academic Surgery Division, designed to evaluate surgical techniques. How does it work? Unless you choose not to participate, your surgeon will enter medical information about your breast cancer diagnosis and treatment into the National Breast Cancer Audit database. Before the information can be used, it will be "de-identified". That means the National Breast Cancer Audit team will not see your name and your name will not appear with any of your medical records. The audit has also been declared under a piece of legislation that means data cannot be disclosed except for "general reporting purposes", such as annual reports and research papers. If you have any questions or concerns about allowing your information to be used in the audit, please discuss them with your surgeon or contact the National Breast Cancer Audit team at ASERNIP-S. For a full list of surgeons participating in the audit, go to www.surgeons.org/nbca ASERNIP–S • Australian Safety & Efficacy Register of New Interventional Procedures – Surgical Royal Australasian College of Surgeons • Section of Breast Surgery PRIVACY INFORMATION Royal • Your surgeon will release some potentially identifying information to the National Breast Cancer Audit: your date of birth and the first three letters of your surname. • This and any other potentially identifying information will be removed before it is used to compile any report or evaluation. No report or evaluation will use any information that could identify you. • The Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing may authorise the National Breast Cancer Audit to release information to other organisations, but this will not include any information that could identify you. • The National Breast Cancer Audit is strongly committed to protecting your privacy and maintains high levels of data security. • It is up to you to decide whether you would like to give your medical information to the National Breast Cancer Audit. However, your surgeon will submit your information unless you inform them that you do not wish to take part. If you would prefer not to participate, it is important that you tell your surgeon or contact National Breast Cancer Audit staff directly. For more information about the ASERNIP-S privacy policy, please refer to the ASERNIP-S website: http://www.surgeons.org/asernip-s/privacypolicy The Breast Audit is affiliated with the following breast cancer organisations: www.bcna.org.au www.nbocc.org.au www.nbcf.org.au The decision about taking part in the audit is entirely up to you. You are under no obligation to participate and if you decide not to, it will have no impact on your treatment plan. If you do not wish to participate in the audit please tell your surgeon or contact the audit team via the details below. Contact either by filling out and posting/faxing the opt-out form attached to this flier or calling/emailing and asking to speak to National Breast Cancer Audit staff.

Children's World International trip to Bhopal
Jan 18 2013 by Jade van Drie-Brown
Children's World International, a small charity from Somerset, are currently visiting Bhopal to give performances to the many children there affected by the 1984 gas leak and the more recent water contamination.
Children's World International was set up in 1999 with the aim to take the performance, fun and participation to children around the world who had been traumatised by conflict, humanitarian disaster as well with the aim of working with children with learning difficulties and special needs. They have previously visited Kosovo, Northern Ireland, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Uganda.
The group will be holding performances at the Chingari Trust Rehabilitation Centre and the Sambhavna Clinic as well as Oryia Basti school and other local schools in the gas and water affected areas of Bhopal.
Children's World International and the Bhopal Medical Appeal share the same patron, Michael Evis, and they said that what they have to offer "would be a real boost to children, families and communities who are having to live with the ongoing effects of this horrific disaster".

Cable Cam
There is no forum for cable cams so since the cable cam is specifically designed for filming I thought it may fit here.
It uses an E-Flite Power 10 motor, Traxxas ESC, 2S 5000mAh battery, custom frame, acetal ball-bearing guide wheels, timing belt drive and main gear, Parallax continuous rotation servo for panning, and Feiyu-Tech gimbal for Hero 3+ stabilization.

Nice! My son and I are trying to build something similar to this. We have a rough idea and are trying to re-use parts and peices from old electronics and RC's. Do you have any plans and pictures that you would be willing to share with us? We are new to RC's and building electronics, but have begun learning the basics. We have built a "manual" cable cam and want to step it up to an RC version. Thanks in advance! Cheers! -Nick

Hey, thanks. I got your PM. Sorry I haven't replied, yet. I've had a lot of things going on lately!
I'll answer some of your questions here and email or PM you with other info.
Do you have a hobby shop close to you? If you're unfamiliar with RC electronics I'd suggest going there to get in-person help. It's difficult to explain how I built it with words. Pics only help visually and it took me a lot of time to get it to where it is now. It's somewhat crude, being a custom project. I didn't want to invest a lot of time or money on laser cut pieces, etc., until I got it working correctly.
As with most any RC vehicle, you'll need the basics:
Reversible ESC (electronic speed control)
Receiver and Transmitter
You'll need something for the motor to drive. I used a plastic pulley. Depending on the RPM of your motor, which is rated by KV, or "RPMs per Volt", you'll want to gear your drive pulley down since it isn't driving a propeller.
My first version used a pinion gear on the motor and a main gear on the drive pulley. It was difficult to keep them meshing correctly so I abandoned that idea and am now using a toothed pinion and toothed main gear which is driven via a Kevlar-reinforced timing belt. This allows for intolerances in the mounting of the drive axle and motor mount.
I don't have plans as I built it as I went, usually just sketching or writing down measurements.
I'll try and post some photos this weekend. I don't mind sharing photos, ideas, etc. But, as you should know, communicating the ideas and such over the internet can be tough.

One trick I picked up from a videographer friend is to add a second cable, strictly as a damper. They can be side-by-side, one over the other, whatever. Have your cable cam system engage both cables. On an over-under you only have to drive on one cable. The other is strictly to help take out roll around the cable. I haven't tried this, so he could be feeding me a line. But he swears by it.
Thanks for posting this, Sixinarow. This makes me want to build a cable cam system. It seems like a great tool to have available. (Hey, the Olympics used them like nuts!)

I agree with the double lines, Tom. Side by side would be best on my setup. As long as they're anchored to a single-point tensioner then the two lines should keep the same tension, but even if they're two separate lines they'd be easy to tension the same so it sits parallel to the ground.

Written by Assemblyman Jim Conte Friday, 19 August 2011 00:00
The signing of SUNY 2020 into law by Governor Cuomo marks an important victory for the state and particularly Long Island. The program, which I have long advocated for as a member of the Assembly Higher Education Committee, is designed to enhance investments throughout New York's 64-campus university system, create jobs through public-private partnerships and establish a rational tuition policy.
The investment opportunities that SUNY 2020 creates will help to ensure that SUNY Stony Brook, Farmingdale College and other state universities are given the ability to compete academically on a global level by having the resources to invest in top professors and research professionals. These investments will help to attract the best and brightest students and will result in the type of research and development we need to create new and innovative jobs.
SUNY 2020 will also grow jobs by helping the establishment of public-private partnerships, partnerships like the Broad Hollow Bioscience Park at Farmingdale State College that has the potential to create over 800 new jobs and will help make Long Island's public universities and colleges local engines of economic growth and incubators for job creation.
Importantly, the program bill also provides students and parents with the increased security of planning for predictable and fair school costs by setting a rational tuition policy. This tuition policy will allow our universities to make greater investments in their students and the surrounding community, while ensuring that parents and students are not hit with dramatic tuition increases.
As a SUNY Stony Brook alumni and a father of three, I am proud that I could help pass this important policy, one that will go a long way toward strengthening the state's university system and create local employment opportunities all while setting a tuition policy that will make obtaining a higher education affordable for all New Yorkers.
