Crime and the City Solution at the Oriental Theater, with the Howling Hex, 10/18/12
Tom Murphy Crime and the City Solution last night at the Oriental Theater
From the beginning of its set, Crime and the City Solution created an intimate, sensory immersive environment with a flood of atmospheric sounds built from what seemed like Persian music. The instruments interacted with each other as though emulating waves on the open sea. Appropriately enough, the opening song was the deeply haunting "The Bride Ship." On the back wall, Danielle de Picciotto's superbly realized projections shifted between the image of a stylized skull against a Chagall-esque backdrop and one where a devil's head blended into and replaced the skull. Had this been another venue, the projections would have worked well enough, but against that large wall at the Oriental it was absolutely an integral part of the overall power of this show.

Tom Murphy Crime and the City Solution last night at the Oriental Theater
The flow of music remained fluid with ebbs, flows, swells and rushes, waves and splashes. Guitarist Alexander Hacke was animated throughout, and during "Keepsake," he shouted out wordlessly at intervals, like a mystical hype man. Simon Bonney gestured about and swayed like he was conjuring deep memories with a vivid poetry as he sang with a riveting, controlled intensity.
"Steal to the Sea" had a great escalating momentum that drove it all around before it broke almost effortlessly in a dynamic shift that was subtle and powerful, like few bands ever really pull off or even try to pull off. The sprawling "The Last Dictator I" and "The Last Dictator II" had a nerve tingling section of low-to-high notes repeating from Hacke, with stuttering guitar splinters from David Eugene Edwards and spiky-scraping violin from Bronwyn Adams. It wasn't pure music so much as sonic theater, and it got under your skin.
When the familiar strains of "The Dolphins & The Sharks" came from the stage, after various members said aloud, "Dolphins!" the crowd applauded and a smoother, deeper version of the song came forth. The main set ended with "All Must Be Love." The downstrike and drag rhythm gave it an interesting pace and it was for this song that Edwards finally seemed to be possessed with the music -- a quality that has made performances of his own music so compelling.
Tom Murphy Crime and the City Solution at The Oriental Theater
After a short interval, the band came back on to perform "Six Bells Chime," and then closed with the title track of its forthcoming album, American Twilight. It was like a dark, industrial funk that ended with Bonney crying out "Armageddon" over and over. Tribal and even mystical in tone, it's easy to see why many performers have been entranced by Simon Bonney's Mark E. Smith-like mysteriousness on stage.

Creating Change Comes from Within
It's upsetting to me when people would be non-welcoming to any community. . . .If they're disabled or if they're gay or whatever the issue is, I don't think we have the right ever, ever to turn somebody away or make them not feel welcome.
We couldn't agree more with the above comment made by Evie Weinstein, the executive director of the Bureau of Jewish Education in Buffalo, N.Y. Weinstein, along with 35 other Jewish educators in Atlanta, attended the inaugural Hineini Education Project National Training Institute. The institute, which is a program of Keshet, a gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) education and advocacy organization, provided training and education to Jewish organizations in order to create internal change within the organization and impact current practices used to welcome Jews who identify as GLBT. In a recent article in the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Andrea Jacobs, Keshet's director of education, explained:
"A commitment to long-term sustainable change is not about bringing in an outside organization," Jacobs said, but "building the leadership and the knowledge base within a community so that they can take ownership of it and integrate it and incorporate it into their existing practices."
JTA Reporter Rachel Pomerance described the gathering as an opportunity for networking and sharing program ideas with Jewish educators committed to creating organizations that are welcoming to the GLBT population. Jacobs said the Atlanta institute went so well, three more workshops have been planned for the coming year.
Through our Big Tent Judaism initiative, we are working to accomplish similar goals of change and inclusion. We congratulate Keshet on their success and encourage all Jewish organizations to join JOI and Keshet in opening their doors and welcoming all those who wish to learn about and engage with the Jewish community!

I suppose I could simply quote Leviticus, but since that won't help here, I should point out that you won't get too much demographic growth out of gay and lesbians. One of the reasons Christianity grew, and Judaism survived in the Roman Empire was that both Christianity and Judaism were pro-natalist (anti-gay, anti-infanticide, pro-procreation) in their scriptures and teachings, whereas the othere religions and cults weren't.
Ultra-Orthdodox Judaism is growing faster than any other branch of Judaism because of its pro-natalist actions. I doubt there are any gay organisations in Kiryas Yoel or New Square NY. But the median age in Kiryas Yoel is 15.
Comment by Dave — June 1, 2008 @ 8:42 am
Why does Dave, the self-righteous orthodox, bother to comment here? I doubt there are many readers inclined either to believe in the tenets of orthodox Judaism or to observe the minutiae of halacha.
As for Kiryas Yoel, the NYT cited in wikipedia reports:
"Because of the sheer size of the families (the average household here has six people, but it is not uncommon for couples to have 8 or 10 children), and because a vast majority of households subsist on only one salary, 62 percent of the local families live below poverty level and rely heavily on public assistance…"
I'll take a pass on that style of pro-natalism.
Comment by e — June 1, 2008 @ 4:59 pm
1/ I'm not Orthodox.
2/ I agree that the readers here aren't interested in Halacha (or the 'minutae' of Halacha as stated). That's why I specifically stated that I wouldn't mention Leviticus.
3/ That is why I focused my arguments on natalism, which is not solely a traditional Jewish value, and is demographics-oriented. Anyone form the most secular to the most religious can deal with it.
Natalism is one reason why certain groups grow and certain groups disappear. Its why the ultra-Orthdox are growing and why the other two main branches aren't (in fact the Conservatives are shrinking rapidly)
Poor or not the ultra-Orthodox will be around tomorrow. Those groups that practice anti-natalistic activities like being gay-inclusive, will they?
As my favorite pundit says: 'The future belongs to those who show up for it'.

[Then again, perhaps file-swapping would have been far _more popular_

File-Sharing Lawsuits Fail to Deter P2P Downloaders
RIAA v. The People: Two Years Later
Chicago - It's been two years since the Recording Industry
Association of America (RIAA) started suing music fans who
share songs online. Thousands of Americans have been hit
by lawsuits, but both peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing and
the litigation continue unabated.
In a report released Thursday, "RIAA v. The People: Two
Years Later," the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF)
argues that the lawsuits are singling out only a select few
fans for retribution, and many of them can't afford either
to settle the case or defend themselves. EFF's report
cites the case of a single mother in Minnesota who faces
$500,000 in penalties for her daughter's alleged
downloading, as well as the case of a disabled veteran who
was targeted for downloading songs she already owned.
"Out of the millions of people who download music from P2P
systems every day, the RIAA arbitrarily picks a few hundred
to sue every month," said EFF Senior Staff Attorney Fred
von Lohmann. "Many of those families suffer severe
financial hardship. But despite all the publicity, studies
show that P2P usage is increasing instead of decreasing."
"RIAA v. The People" was released in conjunction with the
first annual P2P Litigation Summit in Chicago on Thursday,
which brings together defense attorneys, clients,
advocates, and academics to discuss the latest developments
in the lawsuits.
Three other reports released Thursday were aimed at helping
lawyers representing music fans sued by the RIAA.
"Typical Claims and Counter Claims in Peer to Peer
Litigation" is a general discussion of the lawsuits, while
"Parental Liability for Copyright Infringement by Minor
Children" and "Copyright Judgments in Personal Bankruptcy"
both tackle important issues arising in defending families
from devastating judgments.
"After two years of lawsuits, there's only one conclusion
to draw," said von Lohmann. "Suing music fans is no answer
to the P2P dilemma."

To save time, I cheated and used a Boboli pizza crust. Loaded my Misto sprayer with regular olive oil, and threw in a lot more red pepper flakes than called for. Wow! It was all I could do not to eat the whole thing in one sitting! This will be a regular at my house from now on!
I roasted the eggplant with a light brush of olive oil for about 45 minutes. Instead of plain mozzerella, I used smoked gruyere (mixed with a little freshly grated parmasean. It wasa fantastic. With the spicy garlic oil drizzle - it is delicious!!!! I have made at least 4 times (my version) since I received magazine back in August.
I really enjoyed this pizza. I would definately make it again. I tried the olive oil spray and it worked good also.
Simply delicius and very similar to an eggplant pizza I ate in Florence - Italy. Congratulations!

Portal in the Park follows a young boy who falls down a portal in Central Park and goes on various strange and scary adventures. The book was written by Cricket Casey, and comes with an audiobook including seven hip-hop songs by Grandmaster Melle Mel. Two of those songs, "Fountain of Youth" and "World Family Tree" feature Lady Gaga, and were recorded sometime between her stint as Stefani Germanotta at NYC's Bitter End and the time she started gyrating in music videos for singles off The Fame.
"Fountain of Truth"
"World Family Tree"
Okay, so these aren't exactly masterpieces. We're big enough fans of Lady Gaga to understand she wasn't always at the forefront of pop music. In fact, every artist needs to power through a few gutters before they strike it big with a hit song. If not worthy of the Billboard chart or Grammy awards, these songs function as an interesting look back at a time when Gaga was still developing her signature sound. Who knew some day she would become such an inspiration to pantsless little girls everywhere?

President Barack Obama chose Mobile native Dr. Regina Benjamin to be America's doctor. Dr. Benjamin formerly served as the 18th surgeon general of the United States. One of Benjamin's many awards include the Nelson Mandela Award for Health and Human Rights.
Benjamin also made history in 1995, when she became the first African-American woman elected to the Board of Trustees of the American Medical Association.
Her first book, The Surgeon General's Vision for a Healthy and Fit Nation, was released in 2010. In it, she addresses the issues of obesity that affect American families and communities.
She's also worked to reduce the suicide rate in our nation. In 2012, Benjamin issued "The 2012 National Strategy for Suicide Prevention, a report from the U.S. Surgeon General and the Action Alliance", which outlined specific goals to cutting back the suicide death rates over the next 10 years.
Benjamin resigned from the position of U.S. Surgeon General in 2013.

PIE Mission Statement
The Columbia Public School District's Partners In Education program provides a vehicle through which our schools and our community can come together and through a mutual sharing of resources, strengthen our schools' programs and enhance our community's economic growth.
PIE Goals
Program History
The Partners In Education (PIE) program officially began in the fall of 1984 with eleven partnerships. Today, the program has more than 130 partnerships and 100 partnership friends. Since its inception, Partners In Education has drawn upon the vitality and enthusiasm of each participant. The program does not look for financial support for schools; rather it enriches educational programs by tapping the human resources available in the community. A school day does not go by without a meaningful Partners In Education activity enriching our district's curriculum.
What is a Partner in Education?
A local business/community organization in partnership with an individual school, curriculum department, or grade level. Each partnership is designed to be a long-term commitment and identifies a PIE steering committee, consisting of both school and business personnel. The steering committee meets monthly and directs partnership activities. In addition, each partnership establishes a mission statement, objectives and activities.
Partnership activities include but are not limited to:
Satellite schools located within businesses
Success is what Partners In Education is all
about. The goal is success for every student, every Partner and the
Columbia community.
What is a Partnership Friend?
A Partnership Friend is a person(s), community organization, or
business that makes a yearly significant contribution i.e. time,
services, products, money, etc. to an individual school, department,
or classroom.

Last night, the House Republican caucus held emergency meetings in the basement, only emerging late to say they reached an agreement on a spending cut plan for Fiscal Year 2011, one that would cut spending $100 billion below the Obama Administration's 2011 request. Because Obama's 2011 request never came to pass, however, the proper comparison is to the 2010 levels, and this cut would be $58 billion from those.

CNA Certification in Ohio
- 0I am currently going to LPN school and was told that after my first semester I would qualify to take the STNA test. Where is this test taken in Ohio? A local nursing home is offering to pay for the test and offer me employment but I was wondering if there is a place to I can go on my own to take the test. I am hoping to work part time in a local hospital if I can get state tested.
- 0Sep 22, '06 by all4schwai took mine in downtown dayton, i think it was a school for nurse aide training. i'm under the impression that they don't offer it very many places, and it costs a couple of hundred dollars. ( i could be wrong) also, you don't have to be state tested to work in a hospital, they do train their techs, but they don't have to be state regulated. i see you are in lpn school, my advice would be to work in the type of facility you plan to work in after graduation. i worked in a nursing home forever and now that i'm working in a hospital, i kinda wish i would have spent some time in the hospital. they are quite different. although, i must say i wouldn't have traded my experience for the world!
- 0Actually what I am saying is that I don't need to take the nurses aide classes, the classes I take in my 1st quarter of LPN school would count as the training. I just need to get state certified. I would love to work in a area hospital and I was told they would hire me but I would have to be state certified. Is it different in Dayton?

Bob Newhart has enthralled generations of audiences on the big and small screen with his trademark deadpan delivery and understated wit. He rose to the top of stand-up comedy in the 1960s and parlayed his humor into TV stardom in the 1970s and '80s. In recent years he has appeared in several hit movies.
As a stand-up comedian, Bob Newhart explored the absurdities of everyday life with an underplayed delivery and gentle stammer that earned him three Grammys and sent his first comedy album, The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart, to No. 1 on the Billboard charts. His unique brand of humor translated well to television, where he starred in two of the best-loved sitcoms of the 1970s and 1980s: the Emmy-nominated Bob Newhart Show, listed as one of the Top 50 shows of all time by TV Guide and one of the 100 Best by Time, and Newhart, nominated for six Emmys and five Golden Globes, including four for Newhart himself. _Newhart _featured one of the most jaw-dropping finales ever featured on TV and was named by both TV Guide and TV Land as the most unexpected moment in television history.
In the late 1990s, Newhart returned to touring with his stand-up act and found a whole new audience with supporting roles in In and Out (1997), Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde (2003) and Elf (2003). He also took a rare dramatic turn on the television series ER, which earned Newhart an Emmy nomination, as well as appeared on several episodes of Desperate Housewives.
Opening for Newhart will be Sally Kellerman. Perhaps better known as the infamous Hot Lips Houlihan in Robert Altman's M*A*S*H and for being the voice of the Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing commercials, Kellerman is also an accomplished musician. Her recently released CD, Sally, features a mixture of contemporary jazzy blues and adult standards with a touch of soulful rock.

Teen daughters 1st pelvic exam... - page 2
Hi all! I think this is the right place to post?? Any ways, my 16 year old daughter has to have a pelvic exam and is absolutly petrified. She has heard the many horror stories from all her friends, and now is very shaken up. ... Read More
- 0Mar 31, '03 by SmilingBluEyesEducate her as to what happens in a gyno exam. Arrange to be with her IF and only IF that is what she wants. Some will want support, others would die first. I don't know your daughter, obviously. I remember my first gyno exam like yesterday. It was by a harried OB who was in between deliveries and also was hours behind and had HUGE hands...so you can imagine how it went.
I was only 13 and having horrible menorrhagia and anemia. I wish my mom had not been too embarassed or "ladylike"....whatever....to thoroughly explain what they would be doing to me and how it might feel. I was totally unprepared for how uncomfortable and rough things would be. I was a virgin, but not treated like one. You get the point.
Do all you can to alleviate her fear. Make sure she sees a practioner YOU would see..one who is gentle, kind and respectful. That is about all you can do. I hope her first visit goes better than mine went way back then. It set a horrible precedent for me in that I was never able to relax in a pelvic exam situation again. Want to hear a funny story? Really it will make you laugh....
I was a 19 year old recruit in the US Air Force serving my first months. I had to have a pelvic exam like all new recruits. A big, burly lady lieutanant colonel gyn came in and did the exam. She was VERY respectful and gentle, but nevertheless, when she finished the rectal exam and went to move away, I squeezed my legs together TIGHT. Well, in so doing, I managed to trap her rather MORE than ample bossom in between them. Try to imagine how it looked: this giant of a lady stuck between my legs in the most delicate way asking me softly if I could kindly let her "go".....when I looked up there, I nearly died. And remembering her rank, (colonel! GULP!), I immediately released her. Rofl, nearly 20 years later, this memory is still clear as the day it happened and I now can laugh over it.......at the time I was humiliated and scared. She simply laughed it off, however; guess she had a great sense of humor!
Hope that bit if levity helped dispel your worrisome mood some. I wish you and your daughter well!
- 0Mar 31, '03 by PowerPuffGirlOne thing that helped me feel comfortable before my first pelvic exam was reading "Our Bodies; Ourselves". It explains the procedure fairly well, and the empowerment-tone is good. You might want to buy your daughter a copy.
- 0Mar 31, '03 by Spidey's mom, ADN, BSN, RN GuideMy first pelvic was terrifying due to my mom and grandmother telling me how horrible it was. As I sat in the waiting room, imagining the worst, heart pounding, almost in tears . . all I wanted to do was bolt!
Fortunately the doc was very kind and understanding. He did ask me a funny question though . . . "How long have you had hives?". I guess I broke out in hives all across my chest beforehand due to the stress.
Well, it turned out to be no big deal. I was so mad at my mom and grandma that I drove straight over there to yell at them for scaring me unnecessarily.
Just stay calm, let the doc know beforehand how nervous your daughter is and do absolutely nothing to make her fearful beforehand.
I'm getting hives just thinking about how mad I was.
- 0Mar 31, '03 by GAstudentI must say that I am one of those people who loves to go to the Doc. My first appointment for exam was scary. I also had a female doctor. My mom wanted to go and I said no. I said ya know I am grown and I can do this on my own. The doctor firstr took me into her office and talked. She told me about herself and her education and life and then she asked me the same thing. She asked me personal things such as what I wanted to do when I grew up and etc. Then she started asking me things like family history of cancer, heart problems, etc. This conversation went on for about 30 minutes. Then she asked me if I was confortable with her and I was like yeah she is a cool doc. I went in and she was wonderful. She told me what she was going to do and when she was going to do it. She got mad at the nurse for not having the cream warm enough. (i thought that was funny ) She was wonderful and My first experience was great. Tell her to just wait it out and voice her concerns with you. Tell her what you like and what you don't like and tell her that it's for the best. I would rather know that I was ok then not. Good Luck
- 0Mar 31, '03 by FlynurseMy mom made my first appt when I first went. She insisted that a female doc or NP did the exam. A female PA did the exam with the assistance of a female nurse. I don't know why, but I was more comfortable that way and every exam since then.
Except for the last exam. I had to go to a new office since I had moved out of state. It was sort of a ASAP visit d/t needing a new Rx. The Doc was male and I asked for a nurse to be present. The FEMALE nurse acted as though she was annoyed that I had asked for someone else to be present.
So, I guess my advice is females all around and someone you know you can trust. Needless to say I fell like on my next exam I need to find a new office.

That is standard practice with every doc I have been to. I have never had to ask for a female nurse to be present... they just always waited until she was available and asked her to come in. It is definitely a liability issue, and all the docs I know have a female present for exams. Even antepartum patients in my OB unit... the docs always ask us to come in when they do a vag exam. I was surprised to hear that some docs DON'T.
- 0Mar 31, '03 by RN2B2005My first pelvic was at a Planned Parenthood, when I was 16 (and still a virgin). They were great. Inexpensive, and before I even went into the exam room, they had a counsellor speak to me about how a vag exam worked, how to lie in the stirrups, etc. Some things--like bending your knees--are counterintuitive, and it helped to have things explained before I was naked.
The NP who examined me was fabulous, kind and, more importantly, very fast.
- 0Mar 31, '03 by perfectbluebuildings................Last edit by perfectbluebuildings on Aug 20, '10
- 0Mar 31, '03 by NurseGirlKarenRayrae, please go to Planned Parenthood. My first exam was there; really, it's not that bad! They will make you comfortable so you're not ticklish, but you really should start getting routine exams.
- 0Mar 31, '03 by neneRNBe sure to let your daughter know also how quickly the worst of the exam is over. Before I had my first pelvic, I thought I would have this horrible long exam with my legs wide open. When I realized the pelvic itself only takes a minute or two, I thought oh, well that wasn't bad! It's such a simple thing, but knowing that it's over so quickly would have made me feel a lot better.

Dave Taylor is a legend to Kings fans. Everything he has done in his professional career has been done with a drive and work ethic that have made him a successful forward in the NHL for 17 seasons and now the General Manager of his beloved Kings. How has he done? It's hard to day. You would have to compare him to his predecessor, Sam "the Disaster" McMaster.
The Disaster was forced out in 1997. Kings fans everywhere, including yours truly, called for his head and wanted our fair-haired boy DT to take over after his three year apprenticeship under the Disaster. DT was the most appealing choice to succeed the Disaster because of his lifelong dedication to the Kings. Kings fans were elated- not only to have DT as the GM, but to have the Disaster out of the organization. Well Kings fans, I have some bad news. We would not be enjoying the limited success we have if Sam was not the previous GM.

Nov. 29 (Bloomberg) -- The National Labor Relations Board proposed scaling back its plans for speedier union elections after business groups said the plan would hurt employers.
NLRB Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce, a Democrat, today proposed that the board, which runs union elections and resolves disputes between labor and management, act tomorrow on a portion of the proposal made in June.
Business groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce had said the June NLRB proposal for faster elections would give employers less time to make their case with workers.

I suppose that I could go on and on but I've mentioned them all by now. It is not common for a brewer's every beer to be so "dead on" style AND so well done (Maplewood's in Amherst, MA, does come to mind although I'm sure that there are others).
In addition, the service was way above average for a brewpub.. Up there with the good restaurants. The menu has plenty of variety to please the 2 year-old or the demanding epicure (gorgonzolla-scallop pasta, an assortment of Ceasar salads, a selection of individual thin-crust pizzas, sandsiches, ect. Garlic-parmesan fries anyone?) and the portions are reasonable as are the prices.
In short, we had a wonderful time whether beer drinkers no not.
The atmosphere is very dim and trendy. The brewing works are upstairs and can be seen from just about anywhere in the bar. There are big hanging metallic light fixtures that do not allow much light to escape, as well as track lighting. The interior is all brick and mirrors.
The bar is pretty long and there are around 15 taps, all house draughts from the looks of it. The bartender was friendly but kind of rolled her eyes when my wife told her about my hobby. She actually tried to talk us out of getting a sampler and said she would let us taste any beers to find out what we liked. The sampler is not set, but each sample is $1 ($8 in our case). The beers were diverse, and it was actually nice not to content with the typical "light lager" and "bland stout" found at many brewpubs. They even had a homebrew competition winner's beer in rotation.
Boscos is known for their "Flaming Stone Beer", or America's "Original Steinbier". This beer is brewed using a traditional German technique of lowering heated stones into the beer during the brewing process. The menu alludes to a "Three Star" rating for this beer from "the world's leading beer critic". I wasn't overly impressed myself, but it is unique.
We did not try the food as we had just eaten at Blackstone so I cannot comment on it. The food that was carried by looked pretty tasty though.

Strong Arm Steady & Statik Selektah – Premium | New Video
The Left Coast trio known as Strong Arm Steady are back with the visual treatment of their track "Premium". The trippy video plays out with a reckless abandon, as we get some pretty random clips from cartoons to the fellas smoking, all while they get some technicolor added to their life.
The dope concept of the video sees the images in the video matching up nicely with the lyrics that the fellas spit. It may be a little rough on the eyes, but the video is DOPE. Do yourself a favor and check out the video clip for "Premium".
Signed, Jesse James
