Tomato, Pepper, and Cuke questions... what am I doing wrong?!
My husband and I started a raised bed over the summer. We have planted in a 9 x 3 1/2 bed: Sweet peppers, Okra, Roma toms and 5 other varieties of tomatoes (for a different post). We made the bed 2' tall, dug into the ground and mixed mel's mix to the top, then mulched. I have attached pictures, and you can see that basically ALL of our plants have yellowish / dead spots on them. We have sprayed with BT on numerous occasions for armyworms, Neem oil thinking it would stop the yellowing, fish emulsion for growth, and most recently compost tea that was to the T ready to be spread. Is this blight, and should I pull all effected plants, or could it be something else? We are researching daily, following the threads on here, and basically staring at the plants like they may fly away if we're not careful enough. I dream about them. What do you think?!?!
All I can offer is not to use woody mulches on veggies - I understand they can be acidic & encourage bacterial diseases. I find that rotted hay seems to help keep diseases at bay.
Plants look healthy on top - which makes me think the problem is coming from below...?
I plant mine in the ground and mulch them in woodchips and my plants get huge so that is not the issue.
I can see what looks like a bit of old leafminer trails in a few of the yellowed leaves but I believe your problem is simply fertilizer burn, nitrogen burn. You put them in a good mix and then LEAVE THEM ALONE :) Just water them. Never and I mean never ever fertilize plants that look unhappy unless you are 100% sure the reason they are unhappy is they are deficient in something.
I plant my plants and they don't get any fertilizer at all after that...none and the plants get over 8 feet tall.
Water them a LOT let the water run through them for a couple hours to try to remove the overload of Nitrogen then resume normal watering once they dry a bit. Don't add anymore fertilizer the rest of the season.
Thanks for the info, guys. The peppers started the yellow leaves and spots before I ever gave them a drop of fertilizer. The fish emulsion and compost tea has been given 2x on the FE and the tea only one time, at dusk. They are also getting a TON of water because it's been raining a ton - I'm in North Florida and one week we had 3+ inches, with 2 before and after that week....
Ami - With the rains, heat and humidity we all get foliage diseases one time or another. Don't do any foliar feeding because that can aggravate the problem. Spray bt only if you see worms. Any leaves that don't look good, I would cut them, move the mulch a little bit away from the stems of the plant. And next time that you prepare the bed for planting don't mix the soil underneath, put amendments in layers on top of the bed.
Don't pull any plants unless they show no signs of improvement, as long as we get a harvest that is the only thing that matter. Don't expect perfection in the garden, there is always bad leaves and bugs there. Just have to do daily inspection so the problems don't get out of hand.
Keep trying, practice makes perfect.:)
Until the BT discovery, we had the most amazing armyworm breeding facility in our backyard. I tell you, we could have won awards. Our spring tomatoes were terribly destroyed, but we now know about the life saving BT. So that's down, and we were expecting some beautiful, trouble free veggies this fall :). FAT CHANCE of that happening, as you guys all know. Now we are learning the ropes for yellowing leaves and black/brown spots and I'm wondering if it'll ever end.
So Silvia, you don't think I should pull the peppers because they look terrible? Just pull the leaves with marks on them? And leave them alone after that?
Thanks guys!
Amy - During the summer most peppers look bad, when coming to cooler weather like now I either trim them or just take out the bad leaves. I did that about last week on few peppers that I am planning to keep and they all are getting new growth.
Sally - I found this at the store, I used the yellow one and it works good! next I am going to try the blue one. I will post results.
I think your plants look pretty good for growing in the summer. Once it cools off, my sweet peppers perk up and start really producing. I grew hot ones this summer that did well. I couldn't believe all the stink bugs on them. I thought hot peppers were a repellant. Also, I never let my tomato leaves near the ground.
Thank you guys so much for the replies and advice. I am going to remove the yellow and yellow-rimmed leaves from the peppers. We have actually seen quite a "growth spurt" with the seedlings since I first posted, and I can only attribute that to the compost tea. It even rained yesterday! How often do you guys apply a tea? I am thinking I will do it again in two weeks (I put it on the first time about a week ago), do you think that would burn the plants since they have yellow stuff?
Hi Silvia- Thanks for posting that pic, do you know if it is effective against CHILI THRIPS? They are not the same as regular thrips which are visible, these nasties are so small they are practically invisible, they have devastated my roses, and the only thing that I have heard of to get them is SPINOSAD... which is expensive... I don't spray, at least until now, because of the butterflys, bees and birds... and that stuff is deadly for bees... I'd love to find some way to get them, I did use some yellow sticky cards for whitefly on my 'maters and did catch some of them, they are visible.... but not enough to save the 'maters, last year.... thanks for your help, I appreciate any suggestions, sally

Black Thoughts and Theory: The Radio Show- Targeted Brainwashing & Us
in Culture
This week on Black Thoughts and Theory:The Radio Show we explore the use of brainwashing, mind-control, and propaganda as tools to control Black Americans.
Join Joe Whitfield, Asha Zuri, and Alex Primo this Thursday at 9 pm EST as we examine the use of MK Ultra brainwashing, Monarch Programming, Thought control and other techniques used by Elitists and White Supremacists to confuse, harass, and dominate the will of innocent Melanated people.
Still having trouble believing that you might be a victim of this form of mind-control? Let's put it this way then:
Do you think that good hair is something other than yours?
Do you believe that there is no one in your race that is "up to your level"?
Do you have to mention that you are part Indian or something else when you describe yourself?
Do you believe that all NBA players are married to White women?
Do you tell women that they are beautiful even though you are dark-skinned?
Do you automatically believe that White businesses are better run than Black businesses?
Do you believe that educated or well-spoken Blacks are sellouts or are married to White people?
There are many other questions that I could list,but the bottom line is that we have been assaulted by various forms of brainwashing and mind-control over the centuries. To have survived this long is a testament to our strength and endurance. Now, let's dig out of this mess my brothers and sisters.
Call in at (917)889-2830 to speak with the hosts or listen in online.
And as always remember to keep it clean and keep it on point. #Peace

Methods of Brainwashing
The Evils Of Psychiatry & the Truth + CIA Mind Control, MK-ULTRA Brainwashing
in News
The Evils Of Psychiatry: Truth About Bipolar,Depression, Abuse, DSM, & a Testimony
The DSM: Psychiatry's Deadliest Scam
It's psychiatry's best-selling catalog of mental illness — 943 pages long and covering everything from depression and anxiety to stuttering, cigarette addiction, fear of spiders, nightmares, problems with math and even disorder of infancy — all reinterpreted and labeled as a brain disease.
And though it weighs less than five pounds, its influence pervades all aspects of modern society: our governments, our courts, our military, our media and our schools.
Using it, psychiatrists can enforce psychiatric drugging, seize your children and even take away your most precious personal freedoms.
It is psychiatry's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, and it is the engine that drives a $330 billion psychiatric industry.
But is there any proof behind the DSM? Or is it nothing more than an elaborate pseudoscientific sham? [courtesy: Jeff Polachek]
CIA Mind Control Techniques MK-ULTRA Program Brainwashing
Project MKULTRA, or MK-ULTRA, was the code name for a covert, illegal CIA human research program, run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence. This official U.S. government program began in the early 1950s, continuing at least through the late 1960s, and it used U.S. and Canadian citizens as its test subjects.
Liberalism & Race Baiters: The Brainwashing of a Nation
LIBERALISM & RACE BAITERS: THE BRAINWASHING OF A NATION - THIS IS A CALL-IN SHOW! Call in to weigh in on this VERY HOT TOPIC of conversation, at (347) 637-3768. Call in to speak with our Special Guest, Rev, Edward Cage and your Host, James Curtis Royster! Let the questions and comments fly, Folks!
Everywhere you see, deeply engrained and woven tightly into the fabric of our society, there lies a significant, even overpowering exposure to a lackadaisical, care-free, carelessly lazy lifestyle and thought process, immersing our easily influenced youth in a culture of listless, lethargic and immoral behavior. Two of the major factors at the root of the glaring social problems that face our society today is Liberalism and Race Baiters. Liberalism and Race Baiters sensationalize, embody and promote a lack-luster, listless and lethargic lifestyle within our society and has produced an age of corrupted or non-existent morals.
Rev. Edward Cage has NO PROBLEM speaking out boldly about these very societal problems, rooted deep within Liberaism, Mainstream Media and Race Baiters, among other places. He knows all too well that these entities have but one goal: to divide and weaken us as a nation. Tonight, Reverend Eddie Cage is going to tear up some Liberal Butt in fine fashion.
When asked the reason why he was a Conservative, Rev. Cage explained: "I admire the idea that we have to make our own way in life and be self sufficient, to the greatest extent afforded us individually." He also has NOTHING good to day about the Mainstream Media comglomerations (TV, music, etc) and what it is doing to our yoounger generations.
Race Baiters like Al 'Not So Sharp' Sharpton, and Oprah 'The Whites Should Die' Winfrey, have all made their entire careers on the backs of their succeptible, many times unsuspecting and hate-hungry followers.

People who say "AA is spiritual not religious"! Brainwashing 101
in Self Help
Today is a short episode to discuss why so many poeple think and say " AA is spiritual, not religious". From 50 somethings at a party, to parole officers, to girl on the street on the promenode. In the making of my film The 13th Step I dug deep to uncover why I too said this too many times. I found out that this is not true and a very important part of the whole bad picture. AA is being used in our courts, against our 1st amendment rights, its being forced on Pilots and Doctors and Nurses. Even men and women who have served their time are being told they MUST go to a 12 step based rehabilitation when they leave prison. Yes...this is true....WHo is making all the money here. ...
If over drinking is a behavior and or a sign of mental illnesses why would we use prayer to fix or heal these issues. And if it were a disease, which I dont beleive it is, why again would I "pray about it" and not go see a PhD or A Dr? Join me today for a 30 minute show.

She uncovers the forces behind the media that changed him completely: a plan by Roger Ailes under Nixon to create a media run by the GOP, The Powell Memo and the dismantling of the Fairness Doctrine, all of which would ultimately result in a media which would misinform millions, divide families and even the country itself.

Technology used to be considered impersonal. You know, the idea of the "robotic mind," no human interaction. But, the reality is technology is actually very personal and becoming more so by the day. Devices are so in sync with their users, they've become the personal secretaries to the masses. This is even more true when talking connected wearables.

Okay, the flip-floppingest show on television is getting good again. Just in time for us to be sad that it's been canceled.
What to watch from Friday, December 4 to Sunday, December 6.
Joss Whedon's tale of personal identity finally dropped by Fox; where do we point the finger?
Joss Whedon's drama will be absent during November sweeps, as Fox opts to air repeats of House and Bones.
Whedonites, I have some good news for you. Dollhouse will not be canceled, despite what you may have read online. Fox exec Preston Beckman (does a name get more executive-y than that?) has stated that the network will air…
With the Arrested Development movie officially in development and a second Sex and the City flick in production, the Hollywood remake machine is shifting its focus to television. Here are a few shows we'd love to see on the silver screen.
Fox took a leap of faith last year when it opted to keep the struggling Dollhouse on the air despite the show's middling ratings. Show creator Joss Whedon pitched an overall vision of Season Two (and beyond) to executives,…
We always knew there was much more to Joss Whedon's Dollhouse than the first season showed us. In the second-season premiere, we got a better look at where the show is headed, and it looks fantastic. However, it wasn't…
It's the weekend -- and the premieres keep on comin'!
Season One of Dollhouse featured sexy shenanigans, but there was more going on than just simple hotties for-hire. Learn about the inner-workings of the Dollhouse in our quick-start guide.
Faith is one of those unquantifiable concepts that's dying in today's truth-seeking world, reserved only for deities who routinely perform miracles (or have the right evangelists). For the agnostic television watcher, Joss Whedon is one of the rare figures…
Dollhouse has a lot on the line in Season 2 (premiering Friday, September 25), having been unexpectedly saved from certain death by Fox. But that's how much faith the network has in the show's creator, Joss Whedon, even after…
TV.com's daily news round-up for Wednesday, September 16.
Say goodbye to Big Brother and the summer's limited schedule and wave hello to autumn and its array of new American programming. We've already welcomed the return of The Tudors, Futurama and Without a Trace, and now, with the arrival…
If you're standing up, please sit down. If you're prone to hyperventilating, get a paper bag now. If you are near anything that you don't want brain and skull fragments all over, step away because your head is about…
Dollhouse didn't exactly live up to our live up to our (admittedly astronomical) expectations, but there's no doubting that, toward the end of Season 1, the program showed signs of the Joss Whedon brilliance we're used to. We've come…
Let's recap Dollhouse's turbulent first season: The show gets announced with Eliza Dushku and Joss Whedon reuniting, fans hail it as the next big thing. Word leaks that there is trouble on set, the original pilot is scrapped, fans…

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Sorry for senior's dangerous fall
Handi-Transit apologizes for spill that could have been much worse
The family of a 93-year-old man toppled out of his wheelchair by a careless Handi-Transit driver last week has accepted an apology from the city-run transportation company.
Ernest Chenier was leaving a medical clinic when the driver accidentally bumped a curb with the Second World War veteran's wheelchair. A city spokeswoman says when "the driver's foot accidentally slipped off the wheelchair when lowering the chair off the curb, the registrant (Chenier) fell out of the chair."
Chenier was flung to the street. He suffered scrapes, cuts and bruises.
"I fell face-first," the retired plumber said. "I cracked the fingernails on my hand. I have pain in my right arm. There were some cuts. I still have the bandages on."
Luckily, Chenier fell towards the van and not onto Pembina Highway, where it was parked.
The nurse at his personal-care home patched him up when he returned home.
"I'm pretty lucky. It happened so suddenly. It's a good thing nothing was broken."
He said the driver apologized and said he hadn't seen the curb.
Chenier's nephew, Denis Chenier, called Handi-Transit to report the incident. He's outraged the driver was so sloppy.
"My own father died in a fall, so I know how serious this could have been," he said. "He bumped his head and died three days later."
His uncle is in good health, Chenier said. They'd like to keep him that way.
"I still don't understand how someone's foot slipping could cause this. Aren't they supposed to hold on with their hands?"
When a Handi-Transit rep called Denis Chenier, he was told his uncle did not hit his face. He has a sore shoulder and is recuperating.
He "did not suffer any great aftershock or side-effects," Chenier said. "We're really lucky."
Handi-Transit reviewed the incident and apologized to Denis Chenier. They offered their regrets to Ernest Chenier.
The driver, the city spokesperson said, "feels terrible about what happened."
Chenier's personal-care home was informed he hadn't been properly buckled into his chair. Had he been, he likely wouldn't have hit the pavement.
Ernest Chenier said aside from a bit of gout, he feels fine.
"Everyone tells me I don't look my age!"
A city spokesperson said Handi-Transit makes 490,000 trips annually.
They receive only six safety complaints a month. Other complaints include late pickups, the routes drivers choose and courtesy concerns.
Ernest Chenier literally dodged bullets during the Second World War, so he's putting his mishap in context. He's glad he wasn't badly injured and thankful he didn't fall into traffic. Other than that, says the 93-year-old, there's not much to worry about.
"I'm glad they said they were sorry. I'm very glad I didn't get run over or something. The nurse here (at his personal-care home) took very good care of me."
He chuckles.
"I guess I'm pretty tough for someone my age. I'm still here, so that's a good thing."

About Lindor Reynolds
National Newspaper Award winner Lindor Reynolds began work at the Free Press as a 17-year-old proofreader. It was a rough introduction to the news business.
Many years later, armed with a university education and a portfolio of published work, she was hired as a Free Press columnist. During her 20-plus years on the job she wrote for every section in the paper, with the exception of Business -- though she joked she'd get around to them some day.
Sadly, that day will never come. Lindor died in October 2014 after a 15-month battle with brain cancer.
Lindor received considerable recognition for her writing. Her awards include the Will Rogers Humanitarian Award, the National Society of Newspaper Columnists' general interest award and the North American Travel Journalists Association top prize.
Her work on Internet luring led to an amendment to the Criminal Code of Canada and her coverage of the child welfare system prompted a change to Manitoba Child and Family Services Act to make the safety of children paramount.
She earned three citations of merit for the Michener Award for Meritorious Public Service in Journalism and was awarded a Distinguished Alumni commendation from the University of Winnipeg. Lindor was also named a YMCA/YWCA Woman of Distinction.
Reynolds was 56. She is survived by a husband, mother, a daughter and son-in-law and three stepdaughters.
The Free Press has published an ebook celebrating the best of Lindor's work. It's available in the Winnipeg Free Press Store; all proceeds will be donated through our Miracle on Mountain charity to the Christmas Cheer Board.

When electro-rock sensation Lights first hit the music scene in 2008, she was just a songwriter with a synth and a dream. Her name may have been pluralized but Lights Poxleitner was a one-woman show who played and programmed her own instruments and sang her own lyrics. This admirable self-reliance is rare in pop—in fact, Lights, signed a publishing deal at 16 and began writing songs for other artists—but after her 2008 self-titled debut EP (precocious enough to earn her a best new artist Juno) and gold-selling full-length follow-up The Listening, Lights was ready to open herself up to collaborations on her unexpectedly experimental album Siberia. And by choosing such leftfield collaborators as live electronic outfit Holy Fuck and rising rapper Shad, she also opened up her sound. "It's a huge step," she readily admits. "For a year after my first record, I was confused and searching. I was writing all over the place and not finding anything that was essentially different. But after tour last year I was turned onto dubstep."

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
And so it begins. A federal judge has struck down Utah's law against cohabitation, saying it violates the First Amendment right to freedom of religion. The decision is a major win for polygamists and represents the slope that marriage in our country is on.

Keywords: marriage, Utah, plural marriage, polygamy, law, gay marriage, defense
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - As gay marriage becomes commonplace, other forms of "marriage" become more likely to find acceptance in the mainstream. Among the more controversial forms of marriage is polygamy, most commonly practiced in the United States by Fundamentalist Mormons, an early offshoot of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Following the death of Joseph Smith and other early Mormon leaders, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons) abandoned polygamy as an acceptable practice. The church was under fire from the Federal Government for decades, at times literally, until it officially abandoned the practice in 1904. Since then, mainstream Mormonism has eschewed polygamy.
Keep family close to your heart.
However, a fundamentalist offshoot of the Mormon Church continued the practice and an estimated 40,000 individuals are said to be living in Utah within the context of polygamous marriages.
Polygamous marriage was routine practice in ancient times, particularly by the ancient Hebrews as documented by Old Testament scriptures. According to the Mormons, polygamy was a natural response to the attrition of men during the early days of their faith when they were displaced to Utah and the West.
The Catholic Church, in its two-thousand years of history, has never endorsed polygamy and has always and exclusively accepted marriage as between one man and one woman only, until death do they part.
Today, Mormon Church has done much to defend marriage, even supporting legislation to protect marriage as between one man and one woman, which is the traditional Christian definition as well as the traditional legal definition in the United States and the industrialized world.
The most recent federal ruling however, paves the way for polygamous marriages to become more commonplace and routine. In other words, polygamy will spread as Utah loses the power to enforce its own laws.
The problem with polygamy is that it isn't a healthy way for modern families to live. Although those engaged in polygamous marriages often describe themselves as happy, and their fellow wives as "sister wives" those women who have left the practice say it is oppressive and traumatizing.
One woman gave an interview to the Daily Mail. Marion Munn, now living in Britain told the Daily Mail, "The only way that I can explain it is like living with adultery on a daily basis, and having the woman come home. On top of that you have to smile and pretend that everything's okay because that's part of the culture too."
Munn explained to the Daily Mail that most women do not feel the marriages are equal, nor do they enter into them freely. Instead, women are pressured into the marriages by peers and religious practice.
Exiting the faith, particularly one in which a person is raised, can also be difficult, especially if the entire family support structure is grounded in the religion.
Also, polygamous marriages can lead to child sexual abuse. There have been some cases where family religious figureheads have engaged underage children in "marriages." Fundamentalist Mormon sect leader Warren Jeffs is serving a long prison sentence for just that crime and has been labeled as a child sex offender. While it should be understood that pedophilia and child sex offenses will occur even within the context of monogamy, polygamous religious sects with a tradition of underage marriages reinforce the practice with religious belief, making it exceptionally difficult for a child below the age of consent to escape.
Now, with the blessing of the First Amendment, these families will face less scrutiny and the danger to vulnerable children may increase.
All this is a natural consequence of permitting other forms of "marriage" to share par with traditional marriage.
The federal ruling will allow polygamous families to become open about their marriages without fearing arrest. As for the rest of us, we shudder to ponder what's next.

The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band
THE REVEREND PEYTON'S BIG DAMN BAND "Sure Feels Like Rain" - live @ the MoBoogie Loft
The Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band - Devils Look Like Angels
The Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band bridges genres and eras with an intensity and effortlessness few contemporary artists possess. And their new album So Deliciouselevates the trio's work to a new level. Produced by Rev. Peyton, So Delicious offers the band's most diverse collection of songs buoyed by the Rev.'s supercharged six-string virtuosity — a unique style of fingerpicking inspired by his Delta blues heroes, but taken to new, original heights.
The fifth full-length original album by the group — which includes Breezy Peyton on washboard and supporting vocals and Ben Bussell on drums and supporting vocals — is their debut on Yazoo Records, a label known for the historic reissues of blues and other old time American music that are the bedrock inspiration for the Rev.'s sound and approach.
"Yazoo was my favorite record label growing up," he explains. "For fans of old country blues and all manner of early American music, they are the quintessential label. And for me, it's like being on the same label as Charley Patton and 'Mississippi' John Hurt. To think that Yazoo believes we are authentic enough to stand with the other people in their catalog means a lot."
The Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band has always been strong on authenticity, playing music that blends blues, ragtime, folk, country and other traditional styles with the sleek modern energy of do-it-yourself, homespun, punk fueled rock. And performing tunes plucked from their lives, their community or from the canonical songbook that fed the Rev. Peyton's formative creative identity. It's a mix that's allowed the band to win fans from all corners of the Americana and rock worlds, and bring a new generation to blues and other forms of American roots music.
So Delicious is a perfect Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band album, with songs that speak from the heart and capture the trio — whose sound has been honed over 250 annual tour dates during the last eight years — playing at their peak. The charging, anthemic "Raise a Little Hell," also the set's first video, lays out the band's live modus operandi, thriving on Bussell's and Breezy's chugging beat and the Rev.'s resonator guitar riffs and mantra-like singing. The song was inspired by a show at a folk festival, where one of the promoters — struck by the Big Damn Band's raucous, juke joint power — told the Rev., "Y'all sure raise a lot of hell."
"I said, 'Naw we don't,' " the Rev. recalls. "And then I thought, 'Well, maybe we do raise alittle hell.'
"The sweet, joyful "Pot Roast & Kisses," which the band has also committed to video, was written for Breezy. The Rev. was developing the finger-busting main riff after enjoying one of her pot roast dinners when the lyrics naturally fell into place. "Some people don't believe that we really live the way we sing about in our songs," he explains, "but it's true. Breezy and me are together and really love each other. We try to keep things simple, like people have in Brown County, Indiana for a long time. And we really do live in the woods and forage for some of our food — like I sing about in 'Pickin' Paw Paws' on this album."
Some listeners also have a hard time believing all of the Rev.'s extraordinary guitar performances are recorded live with no overdubs — until they see the Big Damn Band in concert. "Pot Roast & Kisses" is a radiant example of his nimble style, weaving two melodies, thumb plucked bass lines and bright decorative filigrees into a graceful, upbeat blend. The rocking electric juggernaut "Let's Jump a Train" is another. The song's lyrics explore the notion of courageously pursuing adventure — a frequent theme in the lives and the songs of the Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band — while the Rev. bangs out a machine-gun rhythm with his thumb, ladles in generously sinuous licks and tosses off seemingly effortless fills and accents, then solos and plays the beat simultaneously.
"I've been obsessed with the idea of taking fingerstyle guitar to a place it's never been before," the Rev. says. And he's gotten there by blending the foundational playing of great country bluesmen like Charley Patton and John Hurt with the early-rock vigor of Chuck Berry and the licks played by old timey fiddle players who recorded in the 1920s and '30s. In fact, that school of fiddle — enshrined in Yazoo's catalog — is often reflected in the Rev.'s slide playing, which adds to the uniqueness of his virtuosity.
As producer, the Rev. adopted a strategy that let the Big Damn Band's strengths shine on So Delicious. Bussell's drums were pared down to the essentials to showcase the Rev.'s guitar and ebullient singing, and to allow the beefy melodies on the 11 songs to flex their muscles. Plus Breezy and Bussell deliver their strongest harmony singing, with Breezy in particular elevating numbers like the workingman's ode "Dirt" with her soaring voice.
The Rev's fascination with country blues began at the age of 12, when he started dipping into his father's album collection and his dad brought a beaten Kay guitar into the Peytons' Indiana home. In addition to mirroring the guitar playing he heard on recordings of early blues artists like Robert Johnson and Patton — who the Rev. paid tribute to with 2011's solo acoustic Peyton On Patton — he also started assimilating more modern recordings from Muddy Waters' Chess Records catalog and blues-rock players like Johnny Winter. Those recordings often featured multiple guitar players and overdubs, but Peyton blended all the six-string lines he heard into one fluid part. "That forced me to start thinking outside the box right from the start," he notes.
At one point the Rev. briefly walked away from guitar, when the tendons in his hands were plagued with cysts that inhibited his ability to play. Shortly after a surgeon removed them, he met Breezy and the couple's whirlwind romance and shared love of music inspired him to pursue his potential. Breezy took up the washboard, and by 2006 the members of the Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band had sold their possessions and taken to the road. That same year their initial album Big Damn Nation was released and The Gospel Album followed in 2008.
With 2009's The Whole Fam Damily — and hundreds of thousands of touring miles in the U.S. and abroad under their belts — the Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band was hitting stride, but the Rev. considers 2010's The Wages, which entered the Billboard blues chart at number two and featured the buoyant airplay and YouTube winner — with 728,000 views and counting — "Clap Your Hands," his breakthrough as a songwriter. "That album came at a point when I decided I really wanted to work on myself as a writer and as a guitarist, because it was the great stories in the songs of my country blues heroes and their playing that brought me here in the first place," he avows. "If I wanted to follow in their footsteps, I had to step up."
By the time the Rev. recorded Peyton On Patton in four hours with a single microphone, the band had received the "Best Band of the Warped Tour" award and performed at the famed Austin City Limits, Glastonbury, Bonnaroo, WOMAD, Telluride, All Good, King Biscuit, Juke Joint and Riot festivals, among many other prestigious gigs.
Between the Ditches, which debuted at number one on the iTunes blues chart and landed on Billboard's pop albums chart in 2012, continued that momentum, bringing the Rev. Peyton's Big Damn Band to an even larger, demographic-leaping audience thanks to the powerhouse songs "Devils Look Like Angels" and "Something For Nothing," which were video and radio hits. And now So Delicious offers a feast of new music from the Rev. and his accomplices.
"When people hear So Delicious and see us play live, I think they understand that what we're singing about is real to us," the Rev. says. "We believe in the stories we're telling and in the way we play. And when we're on stage or off, there's nothing fake about us. We are what we do, and I'm proud of that."

CP Group: Balancing the Needs of a Family Business with the Needs of a Family of Businesses
William C. Kirby; Tracy Yuen Manty
Price: $6.93
As a second generation business leader, Chairman Dhanin Chearavanont took over the family agribusiness company and built it to become a major diversified conglomerate in Thailand and expanded the business in SE Asia and China.

Christ in the Cuckoo's Nest: Or, the Gospel According to Ken Kesey "Christ in the Cuckoo's Nest: Or, the Gospel According to Ken Kesey," in A Casebook on Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, edited by George J. Searles, University of New Mexico Press, 1992, pp. 103–10. [In the following excerpt, Wallis explores how McMurphy's character is used as a Christ figure and argues that this analogy ultimately fails because McMurphy's utopia is not a worthy goal. ] [Despite] its persistently comic spirit, [One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest] is expressly formulated as nothing less than the bible for a twentieth-century religion of self-assertive action, with a message of salvation modulated to the needs of repressed individuals in a constrictively conformist society. The novel is replete with specific comparisons of McMurphy to Christ, references designed to elevate the protagonist's martyrdom to a high level of significance. But the novel is also integrated by a sustained Biblical analogy, of which those comparisons are only a part, that begins as a series of unobtrusive allusions in the early chapters, intensifies in the novel's third section (the fishing trip), and completely dominates its conclusion. The analogy compares McMurphy to Christ not merely in terms of their martyrdoms, but more extensively in terms of some of the principal figures and events in the life of each. By doing so, it enables the novel to assume the configurations of a gospel, which, like the original Gospels, may serve as a source of inspiration for emulative and redemptive action. The analogy is first struck in the third chapter, when McMurphy encounters the ward inmate Ellis, "nailed against the wall in the same condition they lifted him off the [shock shop] table for the last time, in the same shape, arms out, palms cupped." Ellis's cruciform figure recurs a few pages later, where, in attempting to move, he has "the nails pull his hands back to the wall." This repetition serves to establish the crucifixion metaphor as thematically significant, rather than merely incidental, and prepares the reader to follow its development as the novel continues. The implications of the metaphor expand to touch most of the ward's other patients a few chapters later, when Harding explains to McMurphy the procedures of electroshock therapy, the threat of which looms large in the life of each. "You are strapped to a table," he says, "shaped, ironically, like a cross, with a crown of electric sparks in place of thorns." Chief Broom has experienced such therapy, and explains how, in his fog of withdrawal, he would travel in mind to the table shaped like a cross, with shadows of a thousand murdered men printed on it, silhouette wrists and ankles running under leather straps sweated green with use, a silhouette neck and head running up to a silver band goes across the forehead. The epileptics alone are exempt from the threat of electric shock treatment, but only because they are spontaneously subject to shocks of their own, as we learn when Sefelt is discovered in an epileptic fit, "his hands nailed out to each side with the palms up" just like men in the shock shop "strapped to the crossed table." Such use of the crucifixion image enables the novelist to render the microcosm that is the hospital as a world full of men experiencing, or threatened to experience, symbolic death by crucifixion in punishment for their inability to adjust to the patterns of life in the macrocosm without. As well as enduring the threat of physical crucifixion by electric shock, however, they must also sustain continuing spiritual crucifixion in the form of the psychoses that render them effectively dead and remove them from the sources of life. Into this world of death, like "a giant come out of the sky," steps R. P. McMurphy, another who cannot conform, yet a man in sufficient possession of his faculties to stand aloof from the threat of death. Indeed, with his red hair, his loud voice, his boisterous humor, and his "man smell of dust and dirt from the open fields, and sweat, and work," he is the personification of life. All he need do is behave, and his release from the hospital is assured. But he is predestined not to do so, and from the moment of his entrance onto the ward until his selfless assault on Nurse Ratched, the novel is focused upon his developing recognition and acceptance of the inevitability and the necessity of his own crucifixion. The conflict with Big Nurse that begins for McMurphy as a game becomes, through the process of this recognition, a self-chosen mission in which McMurphy attempts to effect the psychological salvation of his repressed fellows by sacrificing his own welfare. He comes, in the course of this recognition, to understand not only the nature of the force to which he is opposed, the emasculating pressure of a conformist society towards the repression of self in the interests of social concord, but also his own unique power within the microcosm in which he has been placed to operate as a redemptive counterforce, exemplifying a masculine drive towards the assertion of self. He emerges, at the novel's conclusion, as a type of Christ, giving his own life by choice for the salvation of others, and his experiences in the novel are presented in terms that repeatedly echo events in the life of Christ. His way has been prepared, for example, by a voice in the wilderness, that of the former inmate Taber, who attempted in the past many of the reforms McMurphy undertakes in the present, and who preceded McMurphy as the first case of frontal lobotomy (symbolic and effective beheading) to be used as an example to the rest of the ward. He is surrounded by his apostles, as we learn in one of the novel's few pointedly brief paragraphs, where the Chief tells us he has been describing what happened "as McMurphy led the twelve of us toward the ocean." And though the trip to the ocean begins with Ellis impossibly pulling "his hands down off the nails in the wall" and telling Billy Bibbit to "be a fisher of men," it is in fact McMurphy who is the master fisher of men, and who teaches the others by example to be fishers of men themselves. Whether in conceiving the fishing trip the author intended allusion to the early acrostic ICHTHUS, composed of the first letters of the Greek words for "Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior," and in its Greek form the word for "fish" which caused fish to become Christ symbols in early Christian art, only the author himself could know. But that the fishing trip effects the establishment of a church to continue McMurphy's ministry is certain. It is on this trip, by spurring the men to an independence of action of which they have not been capable for years, that McMurphy initiates them into the McMurphy-like way of life. He has by example been teaching them the principles of this life all along. By repeated assertions of his masculine individuality against the sterile conformity of life in the ward—by brushing his teeth at the wrong hour, by wearing his whale-emblem briefs in front of the Nurse, by singing loudly, by talking coarsely, by breaking windows, by throwing butter at the wall—he has consistently been demonstrating to them the possibility of self-assertion, and the helplessness of the establishment to resist it except by the most drastic measures. But it is on the fishing trip that he elicits at last their total commitment to the principles he has persistently exemplified. The trip is thus a modified mass baptism into the new religion of self-reliance (or self-assertion), and by its conclusion, McMurphy has largely prepared the disciples to carry on in his inevitable absence. As Chief Broom puts it, speaking as much for the others as for himself: "I was getting so's I could see some good in the life around me. McMurphy was teaching me." The fishing trip offers as well the first unmistakable evidence that McMurphy has become a man of sorrows. He has been troubled since his arrival by the plight of his fellows, but only at this point is he approaching a full realization of his own identity as martyred redeemer. The Chief remarks that on the return to the hospital, "where the rest ... looked red-cheeked and still full of excitement," McMurphy appeared "beat and worn out," and he goes on to say that he had "noticed McMurphy's exhaustion earlier, on the trip home." Shortly thereafter, we see McMurphy looking "dreadfully tired and strained and frantic, like there wasn't enough time left for something he had to do." What McMurphy must do is complete the preparation of his disciples before he is overtaken by the fate he now sees as clearly unavoidable, and to which he yields with resignation. "Everybody could hear the helpless, cornered despair in McMurphy's voice," says Broom of the moment McMurphy stepped into the incident with the orderly Washington that triggered the chain of events leading to the end. The helplessness results not from McMurphy's own lack of power to resist his fate, but from the awareness that renders him unwilling to ignore the otherwise irremediable need of his fellows. As the Chief, emerging from his own psychosis because of McMurphy, comes to focus with clarity on the issues involved, he begins to wonder how McMurphy could ever have slept, "plagued by a hundred faces like that, or two hundred, or a thousand." By the time McMurphy effects his disastrous assault on the Big Nurse, the Chief is completely aware that "it was our need that was making him push himself slowly up from sitting.... It was us that had been making him go on for weeks." His thoughts only echo the earlier words of Harding: "It is us ... Us." In his awareness, which makes him increasingly grow to resemble his teacher, the Chief, son of a tribe of Indian fishermen from Oregon (Peter was a fisherman), is clearly the rock upon which McMurphy establishes his church. Coming out of a shock treatment in full control of himself for the first time, the Chief is greeted by Harding in terms that had formerly applied to McMurphy alone, and realizes suddenly "how McMurphy must've felt all these months with these faces screaming up at him." And when McMurphy entertains transitory thoughts of escaping the ward, the Chief promises to stay on, because "somebody should stay here ... to see that things don't start sliding back." Of course, McMurphy could not in fact have rejected his own role, and even if he had gone, says the Chief, he "would have had to come back.... It was like he'd signed on for the whole game and there wasn't any way of him breaking his contract." Prior to completing his contract, however, McMurphy arranges the hilarious midnight party in the ward, clearly a grotesque version (but fully consistent with the values of the new religion) of the Last Supper, which is shared by the disciple who, in his fear the next day, will turn Judas, Billy Bibbit. The betrayal leads to Billy's suicide (Judas's end), which in its turn leads to McMurphy's attack on the Big Nurse (symbolically a rape), his frontal lobotomy, and his ultimate death. In death, he leaves behind not only the disciples, but also the Spirit, "McMurphy's presence still tromping up and down the halls," that disables the Nurse from ever regaining her old power over the ward. The analogy between the lives of McMurphy and Christ is thus fairly complete, and the elements composing it are too numerous and too sustained—especially in their repetition—to be accidental or incidental. The analogy functions to elevate the action of the novel to a high plane of significance, for it suggests that contemporary civilization is suffering from a spiritual illness so severe, that a redirection of spiritual focus, such as that effected by the life and death of Christ, is in order. The analogy makes of the novel, moreover, a bible for contemporary action, because by systematically comparing McMurphy to Christ, it implies that the life of this contemporary redemptive figure must, like the life of Christ, offer a pattern for active emulation. The analogy culminates in the author's assignment of the narration to the particular "you" that the "giant come out of the sky" has most dramatically saved from the cuckoo's nest. In narrating the life of the martyred McMurphy, Chief Broom has become an apostle in the fullest sense of the word.... It is no difficult task then, within the configurations of a purely fictional action, to demonstrate the felicitous effects of independent and self-centered activity. One is bound to sympathize with a fictional hero who performs as an adult the pranks we all engaged in as children but are inhibited from indulging in as adults ourselves. It is also safe to suppose that the people around such a hero, moved by a like sympathy with his basic human desire to indulge the self, will feel a natural inclination to act the way he does. But one is not bound to make a logical extension of fiction into fact, nor to suppose that such self-indulgence will have in reality the same meritorious outcome that it can be manipulated to achieve in art. One cannot gainsay the author's contention that the self-abnegation implicit in our conformity to social and ethical norms is dangerously frustrating. In theological, as well as psychological terms, it is inevitably frustrating to attempt to contain the beast within. Yet life presents little evidence that the release from frustration attained by allowing that beast a freer rein is to be more desired than feared. It is ironic, of course, that Mr. Kesey should compare directly to Christ, the paradigm of humility, a man whose life is intended to exemplify the value of pride. Rather than lose the self in order to save it, the gospel according to Ken Kesey suggests, one must assert the self in order to save it. In contradiction to the fundamentally Christian view of human depravity, which considers the self one might assert as a potential Kurtz in the jungle, Mr. Kesey has predicated his novel upon the romantic philosophy that man is naturally benevolent, and that his natural actions, undistorted by the pressures of social necessity, will invariably conduce to the greatest good. Mr. Kesey fails at any point in his novel to consider the possibility that the natural, self-assertive actions of his protagonists might be at least as often destructive as the presumably unnatural actions of his antagonists—that all human action will in fact be subject to the same human limitations. The problem in Mr. Kesey's philosophy is not that the Combine, his word for the establishment, is less evil than Mr. Kesey supposes (although it may possibly be so). It is rather that it is not the Combine which generates the evil Mr. Kesey observes, but the evil which generates the Combine, or at least makes of it what it is. The flaws in the system exist only because of anterior flaws in the men who created and maintain it. Attacking the system itself is attacking the symptom instead of the disease. That alternative systems will fall heir to the same human failings Mr. Kesey discovered. His Utopia collapsed as Utopias have persisted in doing. But Mr. Kesey's Utopia was more foredoomed that most, since his prescription to combat the symptom, as we see in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, was simply a larger dose of the disease. The most fundamental precept of the religion Mr. Kesey exploits for his literary analogy is the danger of pride, the original sin in the sense of that self-love or self-absorption that makes all other sins possible. Yet the cardinal virtue in what might be termed the "cuckoo philosophy," repeatedly exemplified by McMurphy despite his paradoxical (and improbable) self-immolation, is that very self-loving self-assertion. Kesey suggests that by throwing butter at walls, breaking in windows, stealing boats, and doing in general whatever comes naturally, the inmates will become carefree and vital individuals at last. A Utopia composed of such self-centered children can spare itself the trouble of making any long-range plans. Source Citation Wallis, Bruce E.

With a tight security surrounding Samsung's Galaxy S4, details have not been disclosed to the public regarding the smart phone's design. Right now, gadget enthusiasts are only speculating on a thinner, sleeker and possibly larger Samsung Galaxy S4 screen 1080p AMOLED display.

The Sony Xperia Z is reportedly 4G capable in Australia so the device is well-suited with the 1800MHz 4G networks used in the land Down Under. Sony Xperia Z will be launched in Australia on March 2013 at Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. Pricing still remains a mystery but the Sony Xperia Z is rumored to be worth $650 in the United States which is the usual price with high-end unlocked smart phones.
As for the Samsung Galaxy S4, it appears that Samsung will release the Galaxy S4 within the first half of 2013.
