The Chester Community Association presents a concert on August 21 that will take you way back and bringing you a style of music that represents jazz as in Gypsy Jazz, through the Gypsy Jazz band "Django Tango."
If you heard of or listened to fast-paced jazz from the early 1900s, you've probably heard Django Reinhardt compositions. Gypsy Jazz offers one some of the quickest guitarists in music. Even now the genre of music can be heard in modern songs.
Russ Hanchin leads the band of four with a smoking-acoustic-lead guitar. Backup consists of a chromatic harmonica, rhythm guitar and standup base. But don't let that fool you; this band rocks.
"French dance hall and musette musicians in the 1930s started hearing American jazz such as Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington. They began to incorporate those sounds into their own style," Hankins said. "A Belgian gypsy born in 1910 named Django Reinhardt was performing in Paris during those years and was at the vanguard of this new trend in music, and his approach of integrating the French and American styles using his unique guitar style and virtuosity is what we today call Gypsy jazz."
This type of jazz is beginning to catch on with the younger generation, and more millennials can be seen at their performances. A little listening, dancing and understanding of the music that has eluded most for almost 100 years.
"I think more and more people are becoming aware of Gypsy jazz. Actually, there are Gypsy jazz bands and festivals and clubs in most major cities across America," according to Hankins. "I think it caught on some time ago. Richmond has had gypsy music played locally for over 10 years. Also, there is the annual Gypsy jazz concert call 'Djanguary' at the Glen Allen Cultural Arts Center."
Jean-Philippe Cypres, the Frenchman in the band, who plays chromatic harmonica, via Knoxville and Richmond, said, "I've always loved the ballads of Edith Piaf, Charles Trenet, Jacques Brel and innovators such as: George Brassens, Michel Legrand, Toots Thielemans. But when I joined the gypsy band in Knoxville, Django quickly became my religion. My new quest, to play like Stéphane Grapelli. The music reminds me of home in Paris, and of all the glorious gypsy families: The Russians, the Tziganes, the Arabs, and of course the French.
A local Chester resident, Nicole Jordan enjoys the music in whatever way she hears it.
"I have heard Gypsy Tango a couple of times in the last couple of months," Ms. Jordan said. "I can't get enough of that sound. The musicians are accomplished performers with two great guitarists, one super bassist and a virtuoso harmonica player."
Hankins has described the music the band plays, but when you hear it, there's no explanation needed.
"We do mostly Django Reinhardt music but also songs from the 20s 30s and 40s in the style of Django Reinhardt," Hankins said. " Compositions include jazz standards like 'Blue Skies' or 'All of me' and 'Night & day' and French folk music such as 'La vie en rose' and 'Under Paris skies.' We even play some bossa nova music like 'Wave' or 'Blue bossa' in a Gypsy bossa style."
If you want to dance, you will have plenty of chance to do that; It's danceable music.
Gypsy jazz conquers your music taste after awhile and Cypres explored a number of types of music and wails on the harp.
"My parents' favorite thing to listen to was classical music: J.S. Bach, Rachmaninoff, Mozart, and Granados," Cyres said. "I grew up outside of Paris and my first harmonica was a gift when I was ten. My favorite was Bach because his melodies are vibrant, and his phrasing is like the pulsing rhythm of a breathing heart. It enchanted me.
"In the eighties, I moved from France to Tennessee and discovered Blues and Bluegrass. I became obsessed with learning those haunting riffs. My style of playing remained very melodic; I was no Sonny Terry or Little Walter. I met a Piedmont style Blues player in Knoxville and we have been playing together for over 20 years. In 2004, I became seriously interested in Gypsy jazz and a Knoxville band invited me to apprentice with the goal of mastering the chromatic harmonica."
The band members are:
Russ Hanchin - Lead guitar - Richmond
Jean-Philippe Cypres - Chromatic harmonica – Richmond
Joe Workman - Rhythm guitar - Powhatan
Vince Newton - Acoustic bass - Mechanicsville
"Jazz is an American legacy born out of the pain of slavery, the search for freedom, and the influences of many cultures and styles. Gypsy music is born from a nomadic life that honors different cultural influences as well. For me, the American approach is based more on rhythm and allows you the freedom to improvise in ways that you cannot in Gypsy music," The French approach to jazz is based more on the discipline of maintaining the melody and traditional phrasing. I do not see one as better than the other. It is simply a matter of two different ways of experiencing the journey
Django Tango will play in Chester on August 21 at 7 p.m. on the Village Green opposite the Chester Library on Centre Street. The concert is free. Bring your blankets or lounge chair and get ready to enjoy a real cultural experience.

Filmmakers and Creators Respond to 'Her' and the Question of Modern Love in This Thoughtful Short Film
Features By Scott Beggs on January 21, 2014 | Be the First To CommentWhy Watch? Sharing your life with somebody. Science fiction aside, that's what Spike Jonze's Her is all about, and in this talking head doc, creatives like Marc Maron, Charlene Yi and Olivia Wilde answer the difficult question of how we view love in a world with smart phones in hand. Her: Love in the Modern Age is a fantastic, thought-provoking short film, but it's also the kind of thing that should be made for dozens of movies every year — responses that replace the lobby and end up online to create an even larger conversation. Ultimately, it's such a gargantuan concept that every entry here feels like a grain of sand trying to describe the beach, and that provides an intrinsic element of frustration. You might find yourself irritated with or angry at some of the conclusions that these people come to about love, but its those differences that propel and reveal the labyrinthine complexity of something that is boiled down to chemicals and placed on a pedestal above all others. Funny how a conversation about love ends up creating an open door to human frailty and failing.
Is the Future of 'Her' Utopian or Dystopian?
Discussion By Landon Palmer on January 16, 2014 | Comments (4)There are two things that are probably beyond contestation about Spike Jonze's Her: It's a critical darling (as evidenced by its many rave reviews, its presence on end-of-year lists, and its continued haul of awards season recognition), and It has an immersive, thoroughly realized vision of an unspecified near-future. It's hard to think of a science-fiction movie in recent memory as invested as Her in what the future will look like, feel like, dress like, and what effects this will have on something as intrinsic and everyday as human relationships. But beyond these two points, there is much to be found that's worth debating in Jonze's film. Her diverts from science-fiction's tradition of painting an overtly dystopic future of constant surveillance and centralized control familiar to any Philip H. Dick fan, yet as sleek, inviting, and even beautiful as the film's immaculate surfaces and evolving technologies are, there seems to be an insidious coldness and emptiness that lies beneath the surface, a sense that something is lost between the glass walls and mobile devices that separate people in Jonze's Los Angeles.
12 Movies to Watch After You've Seen 'Her'
Features By Christopher Campbell on January 12, 2014 | Be the First To CommentIt may not have cracked the top ten this weekend after finally entering wide release, and it probably will be left empty handed at the Golden Globes tonight, but Spike Jonze's Her is one of the best movies of last year (it was #4 on FSR's aggregated top ten, #3 on resident critic Rob Hunter's list, #2 on our best sci-fi list…) and if you haven't seen it already, you must go out as soon as you can and fall in love with this movie about love. If you don't already know from our coverage and praise, the futurist sci-fi film stars Joaquin Phoenix as a man recently separated from his wife who rebounds with his computer's sentient operating system, voiced by Scarlett Johansson. That plot has reminded me of other movies since I first heard about it, and I've continued to recall related recommendations before, during and after seeing it. It's not necessarily derivative so much as the next step for cinema that deals with the idea of love as a concept, what it means to be in love and how much it's in our heads as opposed to heart and how much is really a mutual experience. This week's list of movies to watch mostly involve those same themes, though not all. As usual, some come from connections made by others. I've decided to leave out one particular movie, WarGames, as it's not about love and I already highlighted it in relation to Her in the special year-end […]
'Her' Review: You Will Believe a Man Can Fall in Love With an Operating System
Movie Reviews By Kate Erbland on January 9, 2014 | Be the First To CommentEditor's note: Our review of Spike Jonze's brilliant Her originally ran during last year's NYFF, but we're re-posting it now as the film opens tomorrow in wide release. A lonely man meets an unattainable woman, falls head over heels in love, and is forced to grow through the trials of their romance – it's a story as old as time, but director Spike Jonze gives it a fresh, timely update with his Her, imagining said unattainable woman as, well, not even really a woman, but a highly intelligent computer operating system. Modern love is complicated. The twist of Her, however, is that Theodore (Joaquin Phoenix, just plain heartbreaking here) and Samantha's (voiced by Scarlett Johansson) relationship is prone to the same troubles and anxieties as any other romantic bond (all-human or not), and its plot is moved along by very recognizable twists in their road to (maybe) happily ever after. Sure, Her is about a guy who essentially falls in love with an ever-evolving piece of artificial intelligence meant to help sort his email and keep track of his calendar, but it's also a deeply relatable love story about falling in love with anyone (or anything).
Could We Ever Have an iPhone With Scarlett Johansson's Voice?
Features By Christopher Campbell on January 5, 2014 | Comments (6)Spike Jonze's Her hasn't even hit wide release yet, but everyone has been talking about its futurist concepts for months. And not only talking about them, but desiring them. It used to be that we had to dream about flying cars and hoverboards as being decades away, but in the past ten years smart science fiction has given us more plausible tech and production design. Minority Report's promise of touch screens and personalized ads came rather quickly, and now our impatient culture will demand the stuff seen in Her immediately. We've already got some fashions inspired by the film, but how about the artificial intelligence? And more importantly, the artificial intelligence boyfriends and girlfriends? Well, that may not be right around the corner. It might not even be possible at all, at least not to the degree it's seen in Her (I'm skeptical about full AI ever existing). But this generation tends to be satisfied with replicas if not the real thing. We're not only fine with fake self-lacing Nikes like those seen in Back to the Future Part II, but we'll even pay thousands of dollars for them. Same goes for light-up flux capacitor models that don't really transport us back in time. So why not a special smartphone that features Scarlett Johansson's voice to make us feel like the "Samantha" OS from Her is real? After all, there's been a HAL 9000 theme available for the iPhone, although it doesn't really replace the Siri voice or alter the […]
Everyone Obsessing Over Those High-Waisted 'Her' Pants Can Finally Go Buy a Pair
Movie News By Adam Bellotto on January 3, 2014 | Be the First To CommentWhen it comes to Her, the movie-going public is a little like a kid ignoring his giant new RC car to play with the cardboard box it came in. Here we are, with a film that asks so many questions that are so relevant to our own lives- questions about the ever-increasing influence of technology and its impact on our relationships- and all anyone cares about are the high-waisted pants. Don't get me wrong, the high-waisted pants are great. I love the pants. And it does make sense that people would be falling over themselves to editorialize about Joaquin Phoenix's fashion choices instead of his digital romance. Not a soul in Her ever speaks aloud about men buckling their trousers above the bellybutton; the inclusion of the pants is both subtle and on the nose at the same time. So when those in the audience realize why the men of Her look so oddly futuristic, they get a fun little feeling of discovery, and immediately decide to write about it on the internet.

'Bad Grandpa' Review: In This Stunt Johnny Knoxville is Upstaged By a Kid, Outdone by One Direction
Movie Reviews By Christopher Campbell on October 25, 2013 | Comments (1)Johnny Knoxville and his Jackass friends have an appreciation for the classics. In their movies they've paid tribute specifically to Buster Keaton and Busby Berkeley, and more generally to the many slapstick comedians and masters of choreography — of both the stunt and musical varieties — who've come long before them. Now with Bad Grandpa, they honor another old-fashioned hero, Allen Funt. This is basically a feature-length version of Candid Camera, with the pranks linked together through a basic fiction plot involving a horny old man (Knoxville in age-disguising makeup) on a road trip with his profanely precocious 8-year-old grandson. It's not just that the shtick here is influenced by Funt's long-running and oft-recycled hidden-camera shows. Most of the gags are familiar old tricks that likely were first done on Candid Camera or its copycats. In one well-worn bit, the grandpa, Irving Zisman, is having a tag sale in his home and shocks customers with a demonstration of his adjustable bed, which keeps collapsing, folding his body in seemingly harmful ways. Later he pays a visit to a UPS Store (or similar) to ship the kid to his deadbeat dad's house in a giant box. I'm sure we've seen that kind of thing in numerous incarnations on various hidden-cam shows over the years.
Watch Joaquin Phoenix Spin Romantically with a Phone in the 'Her' Trailer
Movie News By Samantha Wilson on August 7, 2013 | Comments (4)Spike Jonze returns from a four-year hiatus from filmmaking to fuck us all up with the trailer for Her, the story of a woe-begotten Joaquin Phoenix who falls in love with the AI in his computer, voiced by Scarlett Johansson. It's dreamy, creepy, uncomfortable, and like the poster proclaims: it's a Spike Jonze love story. Heartbroken Theodore Twombly (Phoenix) decides to cheer himself up with a fancy new operating system that promises to be incredibly intuitive and unique to each user. What he gets is "Samantha," a chipper female voice who interacts with him as a friend and confidant, and who seems to grow more lifelike every day. Samantha is the woman of Theodore's dreams, and it's unsettling how easily you find yourself rooting for the "couple" in the trailer when you see him laughing and smiling through hazy shots of sunshine and blue skies. But just as soon as the happiness appears, reality kicks in when it's a phone that Theodore is twirling with on the beach and, you know, not a human lady. Dammit, Jonze! The trailer only continues to spiral and become more sinister from there as Samantha becomes more sentient and their relationship gets more "serious." I'm just worried about getting emotionally invested in a story about a man and a computer program. Check out the trailer below and see what you think.
Spike Jonze's Man Loves Siri Movie Isn't As Crazy As It Sounds
Movie News By Nathan Adams on September 3, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWe've been following along with the development of Spike Jonze's next project for a while now, and with good reason. For one, it's a new Spike Jonze movie, and that should be enough to get film geek blood pumping on its own. But when you factor in the cast that he's compiled, which includes names like Joaquin Phoenix, Rooney Mara, Amy Adams, Samantha Morton, and Olivia Wilde, well, it doesn't take long before the anticipation hits a boiling point. There is one cloud of uncertainty that's been hanging over the project's head ever since it got announced, however, and that's the fact that it has been sold as being a story about a man who falls in love with Siri. Yeah, the iPhone thing.
Will 'JCVD' Age Better Than 'Being John Malkovich' When It's Over a Decade Old?
Features By Nathan Adams on August 14, 2012 | Comments (3)Being John Malkovich was an amazing success story upon its 1999 release. Not only was it a critical darling that got nominated for a bunch of awards, but it also successfully launched the big screen careers of a music video director named Spike Jonze and a lowly TV writer named Charlie Kaufman. In case you didn't know, those guys have gone on to be big names, and Being John Malkovich earns quite the pedigree by being the start of their careers. On a personal level, I walked out of the movie in '99 shocked at how unique and inventive it was, and loving how it melded progressive filmmaking with a comic sensibility. Revisiting it all these years later though, I realize it hasn't aged as well as I'd hoped, and I find myself wondering if it still deserves the level of reverence that it gets. Mabrouk El Mechri's 2008 film JCVD didn't get near as much buzz or recognition as something like Being John Malkovich. Maybe that's because a big chunk of it wasn't in English, or maybe it's because it just wasn't as good—that's debatable. But the opinion that it showed us a different side of its star, Jean-Claude Van Damme, was pretty universal, and it seemed like it was going to be something of a rebirth for the action star's career. It's four years later though, and nothing has really come of it. The man has still been largely relegated to straight-to-video action movies, and any of the […]
Paul Dano Doesn't Know What Kind of Actor He Is
Features By Jack Giroux on July 25, 2012 | Be the First To Comment"I don't really know what kind of actor I am," Paul Dano said when we spoke to him a few weeks ago while discussing his latest film, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Farsis's mildly dark romantic comedy Ruby Sparks. When Dano stated such, it came as a bit of a surprise, particularly because Dano has always come off as an actor who goes fairly deep into a character, from reading books to finding a character's favorite band. What was also obvious is that he isn't the artistically tortured character we see him play in the film. The character, Calvin, is a bit of a jerk: a narcissistic, condescending, and neurotic nerd who wants control over everything. Dano, who spoke of his fear over expectations and other Ruby Sparks-related themes, seemed satisfied leaving all that control in the hands of all the accomplished directors he's worked with. Here's what Ruby Sparks' star Paul Dano had to say about the nice surprises you get when making a film, his process for creating a character, and the time he wrestled with Spike Jonze on the set of Where the Wild Things Are:
Spike Jonze Will Trade You a Carey Mulligan for a Rooney Mara
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on April 25, 2012 | Comments (1)Spike Jonze's upcoming follow-up to Where the Wild Things Are doesn't yet have a title, but it has a cast in place. Or, at least, it did. A while back we reported that Jonze's next film was going to be about a man who falls in love with a computer voice, a sort of forward looking commentary on the dangers of developing a Siri fetish. Joaquin Phoenix was already on board as the male lead, and Carey Mulligan, Amy Adams, and Samantha Morton were negotiating to come on in other capacities. The negotiations stuck, because all three ladies became official members of the cast. But now that's changed. According to Variety, Mulligan has been forced to drop out of the film due to scheduling conflicts. All is not lost, however. Signing up Adams and Morton is still a pretty good haul in and of itself, and there's word that Jonze is in final negotiations to recruit a more than acceptable replacement for Mulligan.
Untitled Spike Jonze Project Might Star Carey Mulligan, Amy Adams, and Samantha Morton
Casting Couch By Kate Erbland on February 2, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWe've been in need of a new Spike Jonze feature since 2009's Where the Wild Things Are, and it looks as if the filmmaker is planning an interesting new film with a stellar cast. The untitled feature (written and to be directed by Jonze) will center on a man "who falls in love with the voice of a computer, similar to the Siri feature on the new iPhone." With Joaquin Phoenix already on board, we can only guess that he'll play that love-struck techno-wonk, but just who of the reported three new female cast members would play the tantalizing voice? Deadline Cupertino reports that Carey Mulligan, Amy Adams, and Samantha Morton are all in talks to star in the film alongside Phoenix. My bet for the voice? Adams, because who else has the same pep and charm? Also adding to my complete speculation – the fact that Morton and Mulligan bare a striking resemblance to each other that I cannot help but think would work quite well in the "real world" confines of the film. This project is not to be confused with another Jonze film that will star Phoenix and Mulligan – that's the one that is being penned by Charlie Kaufman. That film is reportedly "a satire about how world leaders gather to figure out all the seismic events that will take place in the worlds, from oil prices to wars that will be waged," which sounds particularly wonderful.
Year In Review: The 11 Best Short Films of 2011
2011 Year In Review By Scott Beggs on December 30, 2011 | Comments (13)Over the course of the year, curating the Short Film of the Day feature has given me a deep and affecting appreciation of the art form. Before, I hadn't given much thought to the little bastards, but the truth is that they are incredibly versatile and representative of the boundaries that film can break. They can be jokes told well or human dramas driven home. They can be a perfect bite or demand to be expanded into a full meal. They can feel classic or break out into the long, strange realm of experimentation. They are so much more than movies with short runtimes. There's one difficulty in judging them, though. With such variation, pinpointing how one can be better than another gets to be tricky. So, no matter the order, the one constant is that all the movies listed here are outstanding at what they do. The other (small) problem is that sometimes short films spend a long time touring festivals and otherwise being unavailable online. Thus, eligibility here is based solely on when a movie hit the web for us to digest. In that way, it's the best short films from 2010-2011, but I have a feeling that that trivia won't matter once you sit glued to the screen at the talent on display here.
Short Film Of The Day: Spike Jonze's Stop-Motion Romance 'Mourir Auprès de Toi'
Features By Scott Beggs on October 21, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhy Watch? It's from Spike Jonze. There's no reason you should need to know more about it, but in case you're curious, this inventive short film (which channels a few of the old Merry Melodies shorts set in libraries) was born out of a partnership between Jonze and artist/purse designer Olympia Le-Tan. With co-director Simon Cahn, Jonze tells the stop-motion story of a skeleton and a young woman from the covers of two famous novels, falling in love and getting into trouble. Vibrant and sweet, it's a must-see. What does it cost? Just 7 minutes of your time. Check out Mourir Auprès de Toi for yourself:
Interview: Brian Cox on The Bloody 'Ironclad' and Different Directing Methods
Features By Jack Giroux on June 9, 2011 | Be the First To CommentIf you're interested in seeing veteran actor Brian Cox slit a few throats and chop off a few heads, then Ironclad is definitely the film for you. It's got fantastically gory kills, Paul Giamatti looking angry in every frame and chewing apart every inch of scenery with each glare, and blood hitting every inch of the screen imaginable. Sound promising? Director Jonathan English has captured a tone that revels in both gore and laughs. Brian Cox, thankfully, gets to partake in English's bloodbath. I knew within the first few seconds of speaking with Cox that I was going to enjoy the chat. Cox got a hearty laugh from the site's name right from the start and had a few questions about its origin, a part I desperately wish I recorded. It was a nice icebreaker, to say the least. Calm and thoughtful, the actor made for a quick and pleasant interview. We discussed the fun tone of Ironclad and, mainly, the different directors he's collaborated with, including the likes of Bryan Singer, Doug Liman, and Rupert Wyatt.
Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman to Tag-Team Another Movie
Movie News By Nathan Adams on March 2, 2011 | Comments (2)We've reported before about billionaire heiress Megan Ellison, who has used her fortune to start Annapurna Pictures, a company whose sole purpose seems to be giving awesome filmmakers money so that they can make awesome movies. Well, it looks like she's at it again. Deadline Sandy Fork reports that she is negotiating to take on an as-of-yet untitled film that will reunite the writing/directing team of Charlie Kaufman and Spike Jonze. When those two men teamed before we ended up getting Being John Malkovich and Adaptation. I don't know about you, but I thought both of those movies were just the bee's knees. The film they are set to make is said to be a parody-heavy take on things that Alex Jones has been trying to convince us are really happening with his conspiracy theory documentaries. It will be a dramatization of the world's most powerful leaders meeting in a secret room to plan out all of the upcoming happenings that will steer the course of human history. Marry that with Jonze's innovative visual style and Kaufman's mind-bending writing style and it looks like something special is in the works. We've seen the duo do darkly funny and strangely interesting before, but we've never seen them try to tackle something that looks this political. I was entranced enough watching them tell a story about orchids, but when they take on issues like impending wars and global oil trading prices we might get an enduring classic the likes of Dr. Strangelove […]
Weekly Drinking Game: Where the Wild Things Are
Drinking Games By Kevin Carr on March 2, 2010 | Comments (1)Many folks have been anticipating the DVD and Blu-ray release of Spike Jonze's visionary adaptation of Where the Wild Things Are. Well, it has hit the streets, and it's time for the wild rumpus to start. Because the movie is more for adults who remember what it was like to be a kid, I'm sure the audience is old enough to play the game. Who wouldn't want to be king of the Wild Things, after all?

(French: shepherds) Participants in two outbreaks of mob violence in medieval France. The first Pastoureaux were peasants in northeastern France aroused by news in 1251 of the reverses suffered by King Louis IX while on his Crusade. Accusing the nobles, clergy, and bourgeoisie of indifference to the king's fate, they began pillaging churches and towns and attacking clerics, the rich, and Jews. The second Pastoureaux converged on Paris in 1320 to punish Philip V for failing to undertake a Crusade he had called. They sacked the city, opened the prisons, and marched into the countryside, where they carried out pogroms against Jews and lepers before being suppressed.

Tyler man says smoking K2 almost kills him
Tyler , TX (KETK) — For three years now it has been illegal to manufacture, distribute, possess and sell synthetic marijuana in Texas.
However, According to one East Texan its still lurking around Smith County, and it almost killed him. "I was thankful my folks were around on Thursday or I probably would've died, " said 40-year-old Michael Hunt. He said he's been smoking for years, but never imagined how one hit of K2, also known as synthetic marijuana, would change his entire life.
Hunt tried this new product of K2 on Thursday, and the next thing he remembers is waking up in a hospital. Now, he said, "my liver enzymes are through the roof, heart is abnormally large now, and ill be subject to seizures for the rest of my life." He wants to warn people that the life-threatening drug is not worth the high, and said he will never do it again. "I can't see somebody else go through what I did," and Hunt continued to say, "I can't believe I did it to them, i cant believe i did it to myself, must of all i cant believe he did it to our community."
Hunt said this high was different, "I've done this for a while and I've never had truly adverse effects like this." He said its because this time it was a new product, and often sellers change the product to stay safe from law enforcement. Adding, "everytime something truly gets banned, legality wise, they'll simply change the formula."
He told KETK hewas a frequent buyer at a convenience store just outside Tyler city limits, and that's where he got the drug that put him in the hospital. "Tyler's kind of the bible belt and you know, one of those good, all-American happy cities, and this thing is sitting on our doorstep," said Hunt.
According to the American Association of Poison Control Center, there have been more than 1400 synthetic marijuana cases in the country just this year. They also said the effects of synthetic marijuana include severe agitation and anxiety, nausea, vomiting, a fast, racing heartbeat, elevated blood pressure, tremors and seizures, hallucinations, dilated pupils, and suicidal and other harmful thoughts and/or actions.

2013 Fantasy Football News and Notes: Week 12
Up to Date Player Injuries and Relevant News from All 32 NFL Teams Heading into Week 12
Buffalo: It's expected that the bye in week 12 will allow both normal starting WR's (Steve Johnson and Robert Woods) enough rest so they both return and can play week 13. However, don't be surprised if Woods starts losing reps in 2 WR sets to Buffalo's other rookie, Marquise Goodwin. Goodwin brings an element of speed that none of the other Bills WR's possess and I expect his playing time will grow in these last 5 weeks.
Miami: With Center Mike Pouncey Doubtful with what's being called food poisoning, the Dolphins will now be without 3 starters on their offensive line as the Jonathan Martin/Richie Incognito saga drags on another week. This doesn't bode well for either RB (Lamar Miller and Daniel Thomas) and it also doesn't bode well for QB Ryan Tannehill's chances of staying upright against an aggressive Panthers pass rush. At least TE Charles Clay benefits as he's turned into a solid checkdown option.
New England: Shane Vereen's return last week made Brandon Bolden inactive. Likely it will be that way again. Vereen wasn't limited at all or eased back in, so he is fine to consider as a potential fantasy play any given week. In this week, I think Vereen a strong fantasy RB2 as I expect the Patriots/Broncos game will be a passing affair. Danny Amendola is Probable and while limited with his groin injury in practices, he's fine for games. Rob Gronkowski is also Probable and appears to be fine despite his listed back, arm, and hamstring injuries.
New York Jets: WR Jeremy Kerley has been downgraded from Doubtful to OUT for week 12 because of his dislocated elbow injury. With Stephen Hill speculated to have been demoted from the starting lineup because of poor play, David Nelson figures to start opposite Santonio Holmes. Hill will be worked in as the #3 or #4 WR depending on how much the team trusts Greg Salas. While it was nice to see Chris Ivory do well last week, don't be surprised if this week turns out to be a Bilal Powell week instead. The Ravens have allowed a league fewest 1 rushing TD on the season to date. Geno Smith looks to bounce back after what was the worst QB performance of the season so far in week 11.
Baltimore: Ray Rice was spotted in a box score last week and he actually did well. Let's hope that he can make it two weeks in a row despite the fact he faces a Jets run defense that allows on average the fewest rushing yards per game to their opponents and ranks 4th in fantasy run defense overall. It won't be easy, but at least we know Rice still has some game left in him despite the terrible season he's had so far. WR Marlon Brown is Probable and will return to game action after sitting out last week to rest up a knee injury.
Cincinnati: Whereas at one point it was looking like Marvin Jones was separating himself from the other WR's to be the starter opposite of A.J. Green he hasn't been producing and it now looks like a WR2 by committee between Jones and Mohamed Sanu. With Andrew Hawkins having returned and taking over as the #3 WR, neither Jones nor Sanu can be trusted as whichever one is not in favor in a given week will be the team's #4 WR.
Cleveland: I expect we're going to start seeing a lot more of Chris Ogbonnaya as a primary RB over Willis McGahee. McGahee is barely watchable and while Ogbonnaya is by no means a special talent, he always runs hard, is very underrated as a receiving RB, and is a whole lot younger. I think this will finally be the week where both Ogbonnaya and Fozzy Whitaker push McGahee down to being just a veteran backup.
Pittsburgh: WR Emmanuel Sanders is Probable and will play without issue despite having suffered what was originally thought to be a fairly serious foot injury last week. Rookie Markus Wheaton looks to continue pushing Jerricho Cotchery for the #3 WR spot. Le'Veon Bell hasn't lit up the box score but has been a consistent yardage producer both running and receiving and has stepped into every week solid fantasy RB2 territory.
Houston: Case Keenum will start over Matt Schaub. There's been no good explanation of why Keenum was benched last week in favor of Schaub. Keenum's numbers weren't that bad and neither was his play. If Houston wanted to blame someone for their woes, they should have benched their defense for allowing an undrafted rookie QB making his first career start throw for 3 TD's and no picks. Keenum may be on a short leash than originally thought, but his presence is best for the fantasy value of Andre Johnson and the rest of the skill position players. Look for Ben Tate to be big this week against a Jaguars run defense that still ranks last in yards, TD's, and fantasy points allowed despite holding the Cardinals to practically nothing on the ground last week.
Indianapolis: Although Trent Richardson is listed as Questionable, he is fully expected to play despite a calf injury. Doesn't matter though as he has been clearly out-played by Donald Brown and Brown is a low end fantasy RB2 while Richardson is barely a consideration as a RB3 or flex. The Colts say the timeshare will remain as it has been, but I expect a "hot hand" approach. For what it's worth, Brown has the hot hand over Richardson almost every week. Watch TE Coby Fleener have a great week as the Cardinals are the worst team in the league at defending opposing TE's.
Jacksonville: Jacksonville WR's are dropping like flies. Stephen Burton is out with a concussion; Stephen Williams was placed on injured reserve this week because of an Achilles injury. Mike Brown is Questionable with a shoulder sprain, but he is likely to be active because of the lack of WR's the Jags have. Cecil Shorts will start despite his lingering nagging groin injury; Ace Sanders will man the slot; Kerry Taylor likely will play at least some in the 2 WR sets, if not most of them. This season can't end soon enough for this team and the organization gives the impression that they're just holding their breaths that they don't accidentally win another game and potentially lose out on the top pick of the draft. .
Tennessee: WR Damien Williams is OUT again with his hip injury. His being out hasn't translated into much game action for Kenny Britt though and likely won't again this week. Britt has completely fallen off the charts. Rookie Justin Hunter is Probable after passing his concussion tests. With the Raiders being a surprisingly strong run defense this season, look for Ryan Fitzpatrick to have to move the ball through the air. TE Delanie Walker has scored a TD in 3 of the last 4 games and could be a strong fantasy TE1 play this week.
Denver: Wes Welker has passed all concussion tests and will play Sunday night. The news is more uncertain for TE Julius Thomas though as he is Questionable and considered a game time decision because of a knee injury suffered week 11. I expect Thomas to be active, but very likely to be very limited to red zone duties. It's uncertain whether there is one TE among Jacob Tamme, Joel Dreessen, and Virgil Green who would step up if Thomas were to miss the game, or if it would be a TE by committee. Probable a TEBC is most likely. I get the feeling this is going to be a big week for Eric Decker. He's been mediocre in the last 4 games and is due. Plus, you have to figure the Patriots are going to do everything they can to make sure Welker doesn't beat them, and with Demaryius Thomas having gone off the last couple of games, it's likely Decker will be the one left to beat them most. Calling my shot here: Decker will be a top 3 fantasy WR this week.
Kansas City: After scoring at least 1 TD in every game the first seven games of the season, Jamaal Charles has not seen the end zone in any of the last 3. I get a strong sense that will change this week against a Chargers run defense that allows the second most yards per rush attempt. WR Kyle Williams was placed on injured reserve this week with a knee injury. Williams had recently been claimed off waivers from San Francisco. Dexter McCluster has been a nice ppr flex option of late getting quite a few targets. Too bad he lacks real playmaking skills though.
Oakland: Matt McGloin will start again this week after a surprisingly strong first career start last week where he threw 3 TD's and no picks in an upset win at Houston. It's a tough test this week against a Titans pass defense that has allowed a league fewest 7 passing TD's all season, but if McGloin has another good game, it's almost a sure bet that he will usurp Terrelle Pryor as the Raiders starting QB the remainder of the season. Pryor is expected to be active this week as McGloin's backup, although he is officially listed as Questionable with his knee injury. Darren McFadden is OUT again because of his hamstring injury and Rashad Jennings gets to e the featured RB in a favorable matchup. Even if McFadden ever gets healthy, it's likely it would be an even split between him and Jennings. WR Denarius Moore is OUT with a shoulder injury. Andre Holmes and Brice Butler will likely split time opposite Rod Streater in his place.
San Diego: Eddie Royal is providing a weekly feeling of déjà vu by not practicing, being listed as Questionable, and then playing without looking like anything's wrong come game time. This is the 4th consecutive week that where the first two things have happened and I fully expect the trifecta to happen. WR's Keenan Allen and Vincent Brown are both Probable and both will be fine. Allen is lucky to have avoided a more serious knee injury. This week could be the week where Philip Rivers looks a lot more like the QB we've seen the last 2 seasons instead of the one who's been a big pleasant surprise this season. After looking pedestrian against Denver last week, I expect the Chiefs defense at home is going to make an example of Rivers. You may want to find another QB to start in his place.
Dallas: Miles Austin is Probable and will return and play week 12. His return pushes Terrence Williams down to being the #3 WR and Cole Beasley slides to #4. But it may not be for long as Austin's hamstring issues are legendary for recurrence and I doubt he bucks that trend in 2013.
New York Giants: Hakeem Nicks is expected to start despite an abdominal injury that has him Questionable on the injury report. Given that Nicks has been a huge disappointment this season it's hard to really trust him as a fantasy starter even with a great matchup. Reuben Randle has been the far superior WR more weeks than him and Randle makes the better play this week to me. Brandon Jacobs is tentatively expected to play despite being Questionable with his chronic knee issue. If he isn't able to handle his usual short yardage and goal line duties behind featured RB Andre Brown, Peyton Hillis (who was inactive last week) likely would be active and handle those duties in his place. I'm not even sure why the Giants are doing that as short yardage and goal line duties were supposed to be Brown's duties behind David Wilson at the start of the season. Simply put, the Giants do themselves a huge disservice taking Brown off the field for anything more than an occasional breather.
Philadelphia: Even though Michael Vick is healthy enough to return to game action, the Eagles are going to stick with Nick Foles as their starting QB. Gotta give Vick credit for saying all the right things and endorsing Foles as the starter over himself. Not every QB takes demotion as graciously.
Washington: TE Jordan Reed has been ruled OUT for Monday night because of his concussion. Logan Paulsen is likely to be the starting TE and Fred Davis will likely be active for the first time in several weeks and shuffle in some as a receiving TE. Hard to trust either one though as a suitable replacement for Reed. RB Darrel Young is Questionable with a hamstring injury and he is uncertain to play. WR Leonard Hankerson was placed on injured reserve during the week with two ligament tears in his knee. Josh Morgan and Aldrick Robinson will pick up the slack in Hankerson's absence the rest of the season with Robinson being the higher upside fantasy option.
Chicago: Jay Cutler remains out with an ankle sprain but at least has shed his hard cast and that's a positive sign he may be able to return in another week or two. Josh McCown has proven to be very effective as his replacement and the Bears offense doesn't look like it's slower with him at QB at all.
Detroit: Reggie Bush will start without issue despite having been benched last week for a fumble. Bush has vowed to not have another fumble the rest of this season, but that seems like an invitation from opponents to make you a target. Bush better hold up on his end. Joique Bell is expected to play his normal backup role despite being listed as Questionable with the Achilles injury he suffered last week. But I wouldn't trust him in a starting lineup myself as Achilles injuries are bad for RB's. Nate Burleson is Probable and will return this week. It will be his first game action since breaking his arm in a car accident after week 3. It's not known if he'll start over Kris Durham or not though, making him hard to trust. I'd rather wait for a game to see how he does and whether he's really back to the form that was making him a surprisingly decent fantasy WR3 the first 3 weeks. WR Calvin Johnson is Probable, and Probable for another week of insane production.
Green Bay: Aaron Rodgers is OUT and his status for next Thursday's Thanksgiving matchup against Detroit is in question too. Scott Tolzien will start until Rodgers can come back from his collarbone injury. WR James Jones has admitted that while he's not on the injury report anymore, he is still not fully recovered from his mid season knee injury. That could explain why he hasn't been effective. Randall Cobb has expressed concern he may not be able to return from his broken leg even when eligible in week 15. Don't be surprised if Jordy Nelson and Jarrett Boykin finish out the year as the top Packers WR's.
Minnesota: Adrian Peterson says he's going to play despite being listed as Questionable with a groin injury that limited him to one practice session all week. AP has stated the injury bothered him a lot last week and I think it's a huge disservice for the team to not rest the NFL's best RB and let him heal up. It's not like the Vikings are making a playoff push. Peterson should play and while nearly impossible to sit on fantasy benches, expectations have to be kept realistic. This may well be Christian Ponder's last hurrah as Vikings starting QB. If he has a bad game, it should spell the end of the line for him. Josh Freeman has had plenty of time now to learn the system and be able to execute it. If Ponder flops this week the team might as well find out whether Freeman can be effective at all. WR Greg Jennings says he will play despite being Questionable with the Achilles injury that caused him to be a surprise inactive week 11. I can think of about 80 WR's I'd rather have in my starting lineup than Jennings and the risk he represents for the tiny amount of reward he brings.
Atlanta: There was a Steven Jackson sighting Thursday night. Hopefully this is a sign he's going to become fantasy relevant during the playoff run for owners. Still no sign of Roddy White though and I question whether he'll be a contributor at all by season's end.
Carolina: Cam Newton really looks like he's taking his game to the next level, but the true measure of whether a player is growing is how they handle adversity. I'll be curious how Newton conducts himself if the Panthers start losing. The 3 headed RBBC between DeAngelo Williams, Jonathan Stewart, and Mike Tolbert continues to make it difficult to trust any of them as more than desperation plays in fantasy starting lineups. Any of the three is capable of being fantasy worthy any given week but you'll never know which one will go off.
New Orleans: It's unknown if Darren Sproles will be able to play week 13 after missing Thursday night with knee and ankle injuries. Pierre Thomas has really stepped up as the Saints best (and most fantasy relevant) RB and look for it to stay that way going forward.
Tampa Bay: Bobby Rainey popped off in a big way last week and has claimed the starting job at RB over Brian Leonard. Not surprised. Also wasn't hard to predict that WR Vincent Jackson was ready for a big game last week after a string of poor performances. That's the way Jackson has always been in his career. The real trick is knowing when he's got a second consecutive big game in him and I think it's this week. QB Mike Glennon is a strong fantasy consideration this week. He's thrown a TD in every start this season and gets a Lions pass defense that is allowing nearly 315 passing yards per game over their last 4, and 12 passing TD's in that span. It may not come until garbage time, but that doesn't matter for fantasy purposes. Start both Glennon and Jackson.
Arizona: Week 12's performance proves that it isn't a divine proclamation that Carson Palmer must throw an interception in every single game. Now he looks to make it two games in a row without a pick. It was very surprising the Cardinals weren't able to run last week on the Jags dead last ranked fantasy run defense, but a commitment to rushing the football hasn't exactly been Bruce Arians MO throughout his coaching career. I still think Andre Ellington is the better fantasy RB to Rashard Mendenhall, but it will always be a risk trusting a Cardinals RB.
St. Louis: It's hoped that the Rams used the bye week to find more ways to get Tavon Austin on the field more often so he can try to have more games like had in week 10. I kind of doubt it though and think that one game was more fluke than a glimpse of the near future. Benny Cunningham has usurped both Daryl Richardson and Isaiah Pead as the top backup to Zac Stacy. It's unknown on any given week if it will be Richardson or Pead who will be inactive.
San Francisco: Mario Manningham is fully expected to play Monday night despite being listed as Questionable with a knee issue. This could finally be the week Colin Kaepernick gets something going as few teams have been as consistently bad against the pass this season as the Redskins have been.
Seattle: Percy Harvin made it through week 11 without aggravating the hip he had surgery on back in July and it appears that his snaps restriction will be lifted when the Seahawks come out of their bye. Look for Harvin and Golden Tate to start with Doug Baldwin the #3 WR and Jermaine Kearse sliding back to the 4th WR role. Also, if the Seahawks win their week 13 Monday night contest against New Orleans, don't be surprised if we start seeing a bit more of RB's Robert Turbin and Christine Michael in the last few games so as to keep Marshawn Lynch fresh. If Seattle beats New Orleans, they'll have a 3 game lead on all other NFC teams for home field advantage in the NFC playoffs with only 4 games left to play.

RE: Porcelain tiles that look like wood (Follow-Up #13)
posted by: thynes on 06.19.2013 at 12:37 am in Kitchens Forum We're starting a kitchen reno in our country/beach home in a couple of weeks, and plan to install wood-look porcelain tiles. Likely to go with the Berkshire HDP by Florida Tile. I like that it has a hand scraped texture for a little extra "authenticity". I'll be sure to post some pics when it's complete.
NOTES: I am thinking about the exact same tile. Are you done? Do you love it?

The discussion is quite on the roll after Dave Neary gave some insight into who commits how much code to the GNOME project.
As pointed out by Greg de Koenigsberg, Red Hat has outperformed Canonical on a 16:1 ratio according to the Census. You can imagine that some of the Ubuntu fans don't like to hear this.
So after Jeffrey Stedfast puts out his reply, we now also have Jono Bacon stepping in.
Jono's main argument is that Canonical does a lot on top of GNOME, but on their own, using their own tools and build environment. And he calls this "contributing".
I beg to differ.
A contribution in my view is something that ends up in the upstream project. Something that is developed outside of the project is NOT a contribution TO the project. It merely stands on the shoulders of giants, in this case the GNOME project, but it doesn't add to the upstream project itself.
This is like kernel modules that are developed outside of the linux tree – they may run on Linux, but you cannot consider them to be PART of Linux.
So if you accept that contribution means "adding something TO the upstream project so that it is an integral part of it" the argument of Greg still holds strong. So far Red Hat has contributed 16x more to GNOME as Canonical.
Just wanted to make this clear.

Seoul BBQ is an unexpected take on traditional Korean barbecue
Mark Manger Banchan at Seoul BBQ
When I first walked into Seoul BBQ, 2080 South Havana Street, an Aurora spot owned by veteran Korean restaurateurs James and Lily Kwon, I was expecting to dine in a restaurant that, like so many traditional spots from that country, put as much emphasis on the novelty of the culture's dining rituals as it did on the food.
So I was expecting to start with banchan, complimentary side dishes ranging from very normal crispy scallion omelettes to very strange, vaguely nutty gelatinous cubes of totori muk (acorn jelly topped with vinegar and sesame seeds).

It's time again for the Kentucky Speedway to host the Quaker State 400 Sprint Cup Race at the track in Sparta. With a preview of what race fans can expect during the entire race weekend, both on and off the track, Lee Hay welcomes in Tim Bray, director of communications for the Speedway.
A song from country artist Billy Currington, who will be performing at the Kentucky Speedway prior to the Quaker State 400 race on June 29.
As Kermit the Frog so wisely noted, it's not easy being green, but in NASCAR's case, the stock car racing association is trying to drive more sustainable behavior with two programs that were launched this month.
Both programs aim to capture the carbon produced by on-track activity.
Kentucky Speedway spokesman Tim Bray says the track in Sparta is taking part in the programs as it has in previous years.
With better weather on the way, racing fans in this area are beginning to plan for the upcoming Kentucky Speedway season. Lee Hay, an avid NASCAR fan, happily welcomes in Mark Simendinger, the general manager of the Kentucky Speedway, to preview the 2013 race weekends and especially this year's third running of the Quaker State 400 on Saturday, June 29.
