"Trust has been harmed here ... by this county's leading law-enforcement officer," Guilford said.
The records from the workers' compensation board show that Carona started receiving $440 a week as a result of the settlements beginning in January 2011 – the same month he started serving Guilford's sentence after his appeal of the verdict was rejected.
Carona is also still collecting more than $218,000 a year in pension payments for his three-decades-plus career in Orange County law enforcement, according to news accounts in the Register.
Last month, Guilford rejected arguments by Carona's criminal defense team to cut his prison sentence in half.
He will be eligible for parole in late 2015.

In the social disciplines there is a growing movement to use disciplinary history as a means of accounting for the present status and possible futures of various modes of social and political inquiry. In this collection of essays, a number of political scientists take up the challenge of disciplinary history by exploring a range of themes and movements that have shaped academic political science today. These essays should be of interest to any student of the social disciplines who is interested in understanding both the development of modern political science and its current concerns.

New Telemedicine System Features Mobile Apps for Apple and Android Phones
We have great news about your telemedicine benefit!
Starting November 1, 2014, the InteractiveMD telemedicine system will be introducing exciting new changes that will make it easier than ever to consult with a doctor. This change applies to all members who are currently enrolled in a program offering InteractiveMD telemedicine benefits.
InteractiveMD has partnered with one of the nation's leading telemedicine vendors to provide you with:
Your monthly membership costs will not be affected by this change, and each physician consult using the new system will cost just $40. That is much less than you would have to pay out-of-pocket for an in-person consult with a licensed physician. Please note that due to regulatory developments, InteractiveMD will no longer be able to provide free consultations for any member. Members will be responsible for consultation costs when scheduling their appointment.
Telemedicine is changing the face of medicine and making it easier for people to consult with experienced licensed doctors when they get sick. You will receive more information about these new telemedicine services in the near future. We hope that you take advantage of this great benefit and join the Telemedicine Revolution!
Thanks, and if you have any questions about this letter please contact member service at 866-227-5400.

1991 Volvo 740 Turbo 4dr Wagon
I wanted a Volvo 740 Turbo wagon. I had a 1987 740 regular wagon. Found a '91 Turbo wagon with 186,00 miles on sale for $2,500. Haggled the price down to $2,000. Could have haggled down the price more, but resisted the urge, out of respect to a fellow Volvo owner. Original paint job looked glossy for a 13-yr old. Interior showed its age. Brakes were bad. Timing belt replaced at 188,000 miles. Replaced leaking radiator. The cylinder head gasket was replaced. Front bushings were replaced. Previous owner tried hard to "kill" car but failed. After few-and-far-between repairs by a "Volvo only" mechanic, car runs like a dream. 0-80 mph, no sweat. Gets 20 mpg, city. Overall, a magnificent car.

1991 Volvo 740 4dr Sedan
I bought my Volvo 740 for $600.00. Overall it's a good car. If you know about cars, then you can really fix one of these up well. So far, I have put about $3000.00 into it. I know it's a lot, and also it's my first car. But I want it to look really nice, especially when I get the new paint job and I want it to run very smooth, nice sounding, and as fast as I can tweak it to go. I'm still thinking about if I want to install the turbo on it, but I have to fix the frame (small bend in each). But when I get the last 2 of my replacement parts, it will look good.

I bought this car with 199K on the odometer. It was already 13 years old. I won the ebay auction and paid $800 for it. I picked it up near Philly, Pennsylvania, and drove it straight to Lawrence Kansas in one and half days. No problems. During my ownership of the car (2.5 years) it only needed a water pump changed which is a maintenance item anyway. Always ultra reliable, and the transmission was excellent and crisp. I drove this regularly and made 1000 mile round trips routinely. This car is built for the highway! You always arrive fresh and relaxed! I had to sell it to a friend because she got into an accident and dented it up. She is driving it as is, and is happy too.

This is the best car I have ever owned and I probably will not find a better one in my life time. I now have 485,787 miles on it and it runs like new. Smooth transmission and engine and it's all original. I have had this car for six years now and everything still works perfectly. I admit I even abuse the car all the time at the street lights and she is as tough as a tank and as fast as a hot rod. All I do is change the oil every 3 thousand miles or so and I changed the battery once. Not bad for a half a million mile car! I paid only $600 for her and some guy offered me $4,000. no way would I ever sell my car. If you buy a Volvo you will never buy anything else again! Volvo for life!

I bought this car with 199,000 miles on it in July 2004 and only recently sold it to a friend with 216,000 miles on it. I love the fact that she was built for highway cruising. I thought it was bizzare that she gave 16 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. But I never felt the stress of driving on 8-10 hour trips. She has been utterly reliable, and the only thing I did for her during her 2.5 years with me was change the rotors and pads, and get the alternator fixed. (Both of these are maintenance items that need repair/replacement every 6-7 yrs when well maintained.) Her original automatic trans was rock solid. Everything worked as it should.

I drove this car for 15 years and put 245,000 miles on it. It was still going strong, but I succumbed to a red Audi convertible. I had a bit of front end work (rack), and other general work done, but the engine, body, and upholstery (leather) were still fine. My new car is great, but I doubt it will be as fine a car in general as my "trusty" Volvo. I probably could have gotten another five years out of it. Too late now. (1991 740)

1991 Volvo 740 SE Turbo 4dr Sedan
I was given this car in 2002 when it died on the side of a rural GA highway. Turns out the ground wire to the main fuel pump had a bad terminal connection. After about 30 minutes and 10 cents invested, I had a smooth running little Volvo. This car became my wife's (girlfriend at the time) college commuter car. Now it's my daily driver. I love this car. I can take V8 muscle or imports from a standing start to about 80 mph. Beyond that, the 740 is mortal. It's comfy and very safe, and a tad sexy too. My only complaints are the quirky electronics. I can't really complain though for a 15 year old car. Advice to tinkerers: if it ain't broke, leave it be. Volvos will drive you crazy.

Now I understand why volvo holds the world record for the most miles in history. My car has 181,000 miles on it and runs like new.Its fast comfortable and its alot of fun beating sports cars with a station wagon. I bought the car because my escort died on me on short notice i needed somthing cheap that was safe for the baby reliable and didn't use too much gas.I got what i wanted and more. its also fast and fun to drive.an elderly man who collected volvos needed to clear his yard due to code violations.he was selling it for $900 i bought it for $600 sure it needs paint and seat covers its 15 yrs old but wow the car is solid as a rock.fast, economic, safe, and ,reliable I see why he loves volvos.

1991 Volvo 740 Turbo 4dr Sedan
I'm Canadian, so you'll have to excuse
the metric measurements. I purchased
the car at 316000km and drove it to a
little over 400000. The only reason I
sold it was that I was moving and my
fiancee and I didn't need 2 cars. Even
with high miles, these cars have great
bodies and perform amazingly. I'd buy
another in a second.

This is the estimated average annual insurance premium being charged in your state. The premium has been determined based on annual premium data for defined coverages (liability, comprehensive and collision) from a major insurer.
While this information is specific to vehicle make, model, model year and body type, your personal information is not taken into consideration and could greatly alter the actual premium quoted by an insurer.

This section provides information about compatibility and requirements, basic instructions on how to install and configure the PHP agent, and links to more detailed information.
To use the PHP agent:
- Make sure your system meets New Relic's PHP compatibility and requirements.
- If you do not already have a New Relic account, create one.
- From your New Relic Account settings, copy your license key information.
- Follow the agent installation procedures for both the PHP extension and the local proxy daemon.
- Complete the configuration settings for the agent and optionally the proxy daemon.
- Change the default application name to a meaningful name.
- Restart Apache or your PHP host program (such as php-fpm) as applicable.
- If no data appears after a few minutes, see Troubleshooting your installation.
Also refer to the For more help section in this document.
Compatibility and requirements
Before you install New Relic for PHP, make sure your system meets these requirements.
|New Relic PHP Agent
5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6
Installation: Root access is required for most installations.
Running: Root access is not required.
|Processor Type
Intel (and compatible) platforms only.
Support for SSE2 instructions is required.
|Operating Systems
Linux (x86 and x86_64):
|SmartOS and Solaris (x64):
Caution: Known issues can occur when using the agent on x86 SmartOS and Solaris systems.
|Mac OS X (x86_64 only):
|Note: Support for FreeBSD and 32-bit Mac OS X was removed in release 4.6 of the agent.
|Web Server
Apache 2.2 or 2.4 via mod_php
|Frameworks *
The New Relic PHP agent's list of frameworks continues to grow. Even if the framework you are using is not listed here, New Relic's engineers may be able to provide you with useful information about your app. For more information, see PHP frameworks: Integrating support for New Relic. Or, if you need help or if you want to request other popular PHP frameworks, get support at support.newrelic.com.
License key
For any installation, you will need your New Relic license key. This is a 40-character hexadecimal string that New Relic provides when you sign up for your account. To view your license key: From the New Relic menu bar, select (account) > Account settings.
Note: For version 3.0 and higher, refer to this information about the New Relic PHP install script and license key settings in the PHP INI file.
The agent has two parts, a PHP extension and a local proxy daemon. Follow the appropriate installation instructions carefully to make sure you have accounted for both.
Note: As part of the installation process, change the default application name to a meaningful name.
For standard installations, see:
- Quick installation instructions (advanced users)
- The newrelic-install script
- Installation: RedHat and CentOS
- Installation: Ubuntu and Debian
- Installation: Tar file (other Linux variants, OpenSolaris, SmartOS)
- Starting the PHP daemon (a standard New Relic installation starts the daemon automatically, but you can also start the daemon manually)
For other types of PHP installations, see PHP agent installation: Non-standard PHP.
After installing the PHP agent, configure the settings for both the agent and the proxy daemon, and then restart Apache or your alternate web dispatcher as applicable. For more information, see:
For information about advanced configuration settings, see:
- The PHP API (PHP calls you can add to your app to fine-tune your New Relic settings)
- PHP agent (newrelic.ini) settings (the full list of options you can set in your INI file)
- Page load timing process and Page load timing in PHP (how to collect browser timing information from your site visitors)
For more help
Additional documentation resources include:
- Troubleshooting your installation (common installation issues)
- Maintenance (monitoring your log files and updating your New Relic PHP agent)

[1]Department of Structural Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, Milano, Italy
In this work, an electrostatic diaphragm micropump is investigated by means of COMSOL Multiphysics®. A fluid-dynamic model is adopted to evaluate the fluid flow characteristics inside the pumping chamber, in static conditions. In parallel, electromechanical quasi-static simulations are performed to evaluate the occurrence of membrane movement and pull-in phenomena. Finally, a simplified ...
Measuring the Spectra of Metamaterials at an Oblique Incidence

The emergence of electromagnetic metamaterials has given rise to a variety of fascinating applications, including the perfect lens and the optical cloaking device. For a long time the study of the properties of metamaterials was limited to normal incidence only. However, it is extremely important to know the behavior of metamaterials especially in the area of imaging. In this paper, we use COMSOL ...

Running was the poor man's sport until a few years ago. Now it's a fad and running events, shoes, and apparel are priced for the fashion minded yuppy. Fortunately, you have Mountain Hardwear which still makes moderately priced items like this race pack. It was one of the few that could be had for less that $100. I used it on a grueling 50k trail race that lasted 6+ hours instead of the usual 4 hours. Fits well, no bouncing around. I just don't understand why there are loops for a bungy system but no bungy system.

Legal Studies (MA)
Webster University's Department of Legal Studies offers a Master of Arts (MA) in Legal
Studies and a Graduate Certificate in Paralegal Studies.
Coursework for the MA is designed to provide students with a broad understanding of the legal environment in which individuals, businesses, and the judiciary operate. It's an ideal degree for individuals (such as managers, teachers, government employees, and legal assistants) who would benefit professionally from additional legal knowledge. In fact, our MA in Legal Studies was mentioned in Paralegal Today as one of the few programs in the country for students wishing to further their knowledge of Paralegal Studies.
Our certificate program in paralegal studies is designed to provide the theoretical and practical education needed by those who work or desire to work as paralegals or legal assistants.
Students seeking an MA in Legal studies may seek the certificate in Paralegal Studies concurrently with their degree. Some of the coursework is applied toward both the degree and the certificate.
For more detailed information on the MA in Legal Studies and the Graduate Certificate in Paralegal Studies, visit the graduate catalog.
Points of Distinction
- Webster's MA in Legal Studies was mentioned in Paralegal Today as one of the few programs in the country for students wishing to further their knowledge of Paralegal Studies beyond a bachelor's degree.
- Faculty represent every legal background; students learn from judges with the Missouri Court of Appeals and St. Louis Circuit Court, from US attorneys and municipal attorneys, from criminal prosecutors and public defenders, from intellectual property lawyers and corporate attorneys.
- As working judges and attorneys, Webster professors are well-versed in the latest trends and expectations in legal professions and tapped into the tight-knit network of internships and job opportunities in the St. Louis legal community.
- Legal Studies students can take courses at the Webster Groves campus or the Gateway campus, with classrooms located right upstairs from the Missouri Court of Appeals.
- Webster's global network provides unique international law opportunities, such as
the popular 1- to 4-week summer study programs in Leiden, the Netherlands, which put
students near the seat of international law at The Hague.
NOTE: A legal assistant or paralegal is a person, qualified by education, training, or work experience who is employed or retained by a lawyer, law office, corporation, governmental agency or other entity and who performs specifically delegated substantive legal work for which a lawyer is responsible. The terms "legal assistant and "paralegal" are used interchangeably for the purposes of the guidelines. Paralegals are prohibited from practicing law. St. Louis area paralegal programs have been approved by the American Bar Association.

Christie Blatchford: Husbands had a criminal record, but appeared as a young man on the cusp, teetering between straightening out his life and falling off the cliff
The jurors already know Husbands was the killer. He never denied that fact. Now they just have to decide to what extent, if any, he is responsible for the crime
A forensic psychiatrist has conceded under cross-examination by the Crown that the man who shot up Toronto's Eaton Centre may have been motivated by revenge.
The man who killed two people at the Toronto Eaton Centre admitted this morning to regularly breaching his bail conditions
'I was afraid, I was panicking. I wasn't expecting to see these people. They just came out of nowhere,' Husbands said
Months later, Christopher Husbands would encounter his alleged attackers by chance in Toronto's Eaton Centre, pull out a pistol, shoot and kill two of them
Paul Santos was outside the mall when panicked crowds started to flee the building on June 2, 2012. When he heard someone had opened fire, he rushed inside
On Friday, however, his lawyers admitted that he was the shooter, although they denied that Husbands planned to kill anyone when he went to the mall that day
Christopher Husbands shot and killed two people and wounded five others in the Eaton Centre food court two years ago, his lawyers admitted Friday
Nixon Nirmalendran, 22, was the second victim to die from injuries sustained at the June 2 shooting

Bleached Big Max Leaves
I have the Ferry Morse, Big Max pumpkin that I have been growing. At first it was a happy little plant with nice dark green leaves but now it looks like the leaves are slowly being bleached. I really have no earthly idea why my leaves have suddenly decided that they don't want to be a nice healthy green any more.
I don't really know. I'm playing around w/ planting some late pumpkin right now to see what happens. I do have a cold frame. I wonder what would happen if you built a cold frame around them to help them get growing. Might already have the PM! Are there other pumpkin startings in the greenhouse?
That is not the right place to plant a pumpkin, it is shaded by the house, tree, potted plants and greenhouse. The plant is definitely not getting enough sun. The plant is deperately trying to capture enough light to live and it can't, that is why the leaves are changing color. Pumpkins require full sun.

WALLA WALLA — About 15 area residents attended the first of what will be several community information sessions hosted by Walla Walla Public Schools as it launches a search for its next superintendent.
Superintendent Richard Carter announced recently he will retire at the end of the school year, concluding 10 years leading the city's public schools.
The district has been quick to start the process of finding the right replacement, with the goal of keeping the public involved and informed.
The preliminary meeting was facilitated by John Fotheringham, a consultant with Northwest Leadership Associates who has been hired by the School Board to lead the candidate search.
Fotheringham went over a timeline for the superintendent search, and stressed the importance of keeping the search process open to the public whenever possible.
The board intends to take the public's ideas and suggestions to heart.
Area residents, including parents and staff of Walla Walla Public Schools, are encouraged to fill out a survey with key questions that will help the district produce a formal job announcement.
Hard copies of the survey are available at the district office, 364 S. Park St., while an electronic version can be taken at www.wwps.org. The deadline for surveys is Dec. 1.
After that, district leaders hope to develop and print the job announcement, which will be distributed throughout the state.
Community participation and input won't be limited to the initial survey, Fotheringham explained. Although the surveys will be used to draft the job announcement and draw the right applicants, there will be additional opportunities for area residents to weigh in.
Beginning in March, as the pool of desirable candidates is refined, some community members will get the chance to join the board as observers who will make recommendations off initial interviews with up to six job hopefuls. The feedback will help the board select three finalists.
The three final candidates will spend a day in mid-March doing follow-up interviews, and meeting with staff and community groups.
Individuals who participate in those sessions would then rank their choices to the board.
Fotheringham said as the dates near, the district will be looking for people interested in serving as observers in the preliminary interviews, and who represent different community groups.
Maria P. Gonzalez can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 526-8317. Check out her blog at blogs.ublabs.org/schoolhousemissives.
On the calendar
Walla Walla Public Schools superintendent search key dates:
Dec. 1 — Deadline for submitting surveys. Copies available at district offices, 364 S. Park St., or online at www.wwps.org.

Teegarden's Star (SO J025300.5+165258, 2MASS J02530084+1652532, LSPM J0253+1652) is an M-type brown dwarf in the constellation Aries, located about 12 light years from the Solar System. Despite its proximity to Earth it is a dim magnitude 15 and can only be seen through large telescopes. This star was found to have a very large proper motion of about 5 arcseconds per year. Only seven stars with such large proper motions are currently known.[1]
Teegarden's Star was discovered in 2003 using asteroid tracking data that had been collected years earlier. This data set is a digital archive created from optical images taken over a 5-year period by the Near Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) program using two 1-m telescopes located on Maui. The star is named after the discovery team leader, Bonnard J. Teegarden, an astrophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center.[8]
Astronomers have long thought it was quite likely that many undiscovered dwarf stars exist within 20 light years of Earth, because stellar-population surveys show the count of known nearby dwarf stars to be lower than otherwise expected and these stars are dim and easily overlooked. Teegarden's team thought that these dim stars might be found by data mining some of the huge optical sky survey data sets taken by various programs for other purposes in previous years. So they reexamined the NEAT asteroid tracking data set and found this star. The star was then also identified on photographic plates from the Palomar Sky Survey taken in 1951. This discovery is also significant as the team did not have direct access to any telescopes and did not include astronomers at the time of the discovery.[8]

Non-trigonometric distance estimates are marked in italic. The most precise estimate is marked in bold.
Teegarden's Star was originally identified as a red dwarf, but measurements made since its discovery make it more likely to be a brown dwarf with a mass less than 0.08 that of the Sun. The inherent low temperatures of such objects explain why it was not discovered earlier, since it has an apparent magnitude of only 15.4 (and an absolute magnitude of 17.47). Like most red and brown dwarfs it emits most of its energy in the infrared spectrum.[1]
The parallax was initially measured as 0.43 ± 0.13 arcseconds. This would have placed its distance at only 7.50 light years, making Teegarden's Star only the third star system in order of distance from the Sun, ranking between Barnard's Star and Wolf 359.[8] However, even at that time the anomalously low luminosity (the absolute magnitude would have been 18.5) and high uncertainty in the parallax suggested that it was in fact somewhat farther away, still one of the Sun's nearest neighbors but not nearly as high in the ranking in order of distance. A more accurate parallax measurement of 0.2593 arcseconds was made by George Gatewood in 2009, yielding the now accepted distance of 12.578 light years.[6]
Planet searches[edit]
Radial velocity measurements have been made by the ROPS survey on two nights in November 2010. The results showed some variation, with increasing radial velocities on the first night and decreasing velocities on the second night, though there is insufficient data to make claims of planet detection.[11]

A. Doak Barnett Dies; China Scholar, 77
By PATRICK E. TYLER
Published: March 19, 1999
Arthur Doak Barnett, a leading scholar and government adviser on China, died on Monday at Georgetown Hospital in Washington. He was 77. The cause was respiratory failure, the family said, and friends said he also had lung cancer.
Born to missionary parents in Shanghai in 1921, Mr. Barnett, who used his middle name, was among the most prolific writers about Chinese affairs. But he was best known for working behind the scenes in Congress and the Executive branch to improve relations between China and the United States.
His influence always seemed to be greater than indicated by his official positions, which included a long stint at the Brookings Institution in Washington and teaching posts at Columbia and Johns Hopkins universities.
Until recently he ran a salon on China policy that moved from his living room in McLean, Va., to those of other participants, including analysts from the Central Intelligence Agency, academic specialists and current and former ambassadors.
In 1966 he was the principal witness for an extensive review of China policy conducted by Senator J. William Fulbright, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. At the time China was regarded as an implacable enemy of the United States, a supporter of the North Vietnamese war effort and a virulent force seeking to topple democratic governments like so many dominoes.
Mr. Barnett quietly encouraged both President Lyndon B. Johnson and President Richard M. Nixon to end China's isolation. And it was Mr. Barnett who coined the formula ''containment without isolation'' to describe a diplomatic opening that still recognized China's danger.
The Fulbright hearings are thought to have influenced Nixon, who wrote the following year in the journal Foreign Affairs, ''Taking the long view, we simply cannot afford to leave China forever outside the family of nations, there to nurture its fantasies, cherish its hates and threaten its neighbors.''
In an interview last May, Mr. Barnett recalled debating the merits of improving relations with China in a private meeting between Nixon and China scholars in 1969.
''I always felt that Nixon was the guy, because of his background,'' Mr. Barnett said, referring to Nixon's conservative credentials. ''I am not sure the Democrats would have been capable of taking a major step toward China because of the fear of being clobbered.''
Yet the Democrats tried, and even Johnson flirted with an overture to China, in July 1967, after the Fulbright hearings. ''There was a rising tide in the country that the time had come for re-examination on China,'' said Jerome A. Cohen, a scholar of Chinese law and one of Mr. Barnett's colleagues. ''It was in the air.''
Ever since the opening to China in 1972, as the pendulum of public attitudes toward China has swung from buoyant goodwill to harsh criticism of Chinese human rights policies, Mr. Barnett has been there offering government officials insight, analysis and advice -- after the 1989 Tiananmen massacre and again when the Clinton Administration clashed with China in 1993 over human rights and weapons proliferation.
''For many years in Washington, he was the institutional memory that the State Department did not have,'' said Ezra F. Vogel, a sociologist at Harvard University and a former analyst of Asian affairs for the Clinton Administration.
Over the years, Mr. Barnett remained confident that the tally of common interests between China and the United States was greater than the points of contention.
Just a few days ago, one of the Clinton Administration's leading China experts, Kenneth W. Lieberthal, was in Mr. Barnett's hospital room to visit, but also to commiserate over increasing tensions with Beijing over allegations that China had stolen nuclear design secrets from the Los Alamos laboratories in New Mexico and over China's poor record on human rights.
Mr. Lieberthal, a former graduate student under Mr. Barnett at Columbia, said that when he entered the hospital room, all Mr. Barnett wanted to talk about was China and the current ''nose dive'' in relations. He counseled that the Administration should maintain a long-term perspective because the rising level of commerce and other interaction would hold the relationship together.
When Mr. Lieberthal got up to leave, Mr. Barnett said, ''I've got to tell you, Ken, I am still cautiously optimistic.''
During his academic career, Mr. Barnett wrote or edited more than 20 books about China, and in the prologue to his 1993 study of four decades of change in ''China's Far West,'' he wrote that despite his extensive knowledge of China, ''I am less impressed by what I have learned over the years than about what I still must learn to understand China.'' In an era of pundits and instant experts, Mr. Barnett was refreshingly humbled by his subject.
During the interview last year, just as President Clinton was preparing for his first trip to China, Mr. Barnett lamented the fact that the Administration had lurched about on China policy so much that ''there is still no political framework on which anyone can articulate a policy.''
He said such a framework would only come from a ''strong President who takes the leadership responsibility to mobilize support and deal with Congress.''

I recently commissioned a dragon sculpture from a popular artist here on dA, but I'm not very happy with how it turned out. As such, I'm looking to sell it to someone who might give it a good home. Here is a link to what the dragon looks like:
If you're interested, toss me a note and I would appreciate it if no one mentions the artist or tells the artist that I'm looking to sell it. I don't want her to know just how disappointed I really was with it.
I'm also selling some jewelry, to anyone that might be interested:

Mike Curb's Presence Sullies Studio 'A' Preservation
Let's just start this off by drudging the big elephant right out in the middle of the room and shining a big 'ol spotlight on it. Mike Curb, Herr Führer of Curb Records—the man who has made millions off of the indentured servitude of many of country music's most famous names, has thrown his money behind the much-ballyhooed preservation of Music Row's historic Studio 'A' in Nashville.
Mo Pitney Reveals Great Promise with "Country" Single
If you're looking for names to populate your most anticipated projects to be released in 2015, putting Mo Pitney at or near the top would be a savvy choice. With a one in a million country voice conveyed in a smoothness we haven't heard since Don Williams, Mo Pitney is a chill-inducing traditional country artist with a succulent pentameter and delivery, and a songwriter's pen engorged with stories.
Hank Williams Jr. Could Be Next NASH Icon Artist
It looks like Hank Williams Jr. might be the next signee to the Cumulus Media / Big Machine Label Group joint venture known as NASH Icon meant to give new life to aging artists who've been passed over by mainstream country radio. In the midst of Hank's ACCA performance, he switched over from a cowboy hat to a black hat with gold lettering that simply read "ICON" across the front.
Curb to Release Hank III Album "Take As Needed For Pain"
That's right, the Curb Records madness continues, and continues to reach for comical, if not maniacal heights. Apparently Curb Records is readying the release of a new Hank III album called "Take As Needed For Pain." Meanwhile Curb has prepped the 10th compilation/Greatest Hits album from Tim McGraw, and has more greatest hits albums ahead for LeAnn Rimes and Rodney Atkins.
Album Review – Tim McGraw's "Sundown Heaven Town"
I write these words knowing that many will roll up to this Tim McGraw dissertation looking for a bowl of blood as recompense for the emotional direst recent Tim McGraw singles such as "Truck Yeah" have waged on the mental state of many innocent country music fans. But the simple truth is Tim McGraw's new album 'Sundown Heaven Town' deserves to be spared the most sinister strokes from the poison pen.
What About A Public Or Private Institution Purchasing Studio 'A'?
So now the question is, who, if anyone, would be in a position to purchase the property with the intent of preserving the Studio 'A' space, and potentially the building it occupies? As Bravo Development has stated, the building is in poor shape. All indications are that financially, the most feasible move for most any developer would be to demolish the building and build on the property footprint.
Hal Ketchum To Return After 6 Year Absence with "I'm The Troubadour"
The music spirit in Hal Ketchum has surfaced once again, and working with Austin, TX-based label Music Road Records, the 61-year-old singer is set to release his first album in six years called "I'm The Troubadour" on October 7th. "I came to the realization that I had gotten to this deep level of depression, and I finally said to myself, 'I can still do this. I can still write.' "
Brad Paisley Rebelling Against Sony Music? My Ass.
Brad Paisley has been making quite the spectacle on Twitter over the last two days, claiming to be leaking bits and pieces of his upcoming album Moonshine In The Trunk against the will of his label Sony Music. Or so he says. This Brad Paisley leaking episode is not him acting out against his label, it is pure marketing. Whether Sony was in on the ruse really is inconsequential.
10 Badass Hank3 Moments
The grandson of Hank Williams and the son of Hank Jr. falls in line with the other country artists covered in Saving Country Music "10 Badass Moments" series by being a rough and tumble character both on and off the stage, but also in showing great character by giving back and using his famous name for good. Here's 10 Badass Moments from Shelton Hank Williams III, or Hank3.
Curb Records to Release Hank III "Ramblin Man" Album
Yes, the Curb Records saga for Hank3 continues. The grandson of Hank Williams and the son of Hank Jr. is having to deal with yet another post-contract release from Curb records, this time called Rambin' Man, slated for release on April 1st. The album will include 8 tracks of outtakes, unreleased material, and cover songs Hank3 contributed to tribute albums and other projects during his Curb years.
Clay Walker Declares Traditional Country Music Dead
Not since Blake Shelton called traditional country fans Old Farts and Jackasses has a sitting country music star painted such a grim and disparaging picture for traditional country music as Clay Walker, The 44-year-old Curb-Asylum artist says that "Traditional country music died," and that George Strait's win for Entertainer of the Year was a "closing of the door" for traditional music in the country format.
Curb Madness: Label to Release Tim McGraw "Love Story" Album
Curb Records is releasing yet another album from Tim McGraw; an artist that hasn't called Curb Records home officially for over 2 years. The album will be called Love Story and will feature Tim McGraw's "12 biggest love songs," two previously-unreleased recordings, and will be released exclusively through Wal-Mart on February 2nd, 2014.
The Greatest Feuds in Country Music History
The last few weeks might go down in history as one of country music's most feud-laden moments. Though country music feuding may be on a sharp rise here recently, it is not an uncommon or recent occurrence in country music by any stretch. Nothing gets folks talking like a good old artist on artist donnybrook. Here are some of the most infamous over the years.
LeAnn Rimes' "Spitfire" Draws Strong Reactions
After a six year wait to release an album of original material at the mercy of Curb Records' career-shattering and sometimes illegal talent retention program, prolonging the release process for artists on their final album with the label nearly indefinitely, the embattled and bruised LeAnn Rimes has finally released "Spitfire." The chatter around "Spitfire" has been polarizing to darn near bellicose.
The Official Mike Curb Rap Sheet of Transgressions
Mike Curb's repressive stance towards artists and his sharky dealings with other labels is a given amongst the informed country music community, with his latest ploy being the release of a duets album from Tim McGraw two weeks before the former Curb artist is slated to make his debut on Big Machine Records. But Hank3 and Tim McGraw are just the tip of the iceberg.
Jo Dee Messina Is Latest Artist To Leave Curb Records
Curb Records' talent roster continues to contract. The latest defector is Jo Dee Messina, whose charted 9 #1 hits and sold more than 5 million records worldwide during her 18-year career. The reason? Just like Tim McGraw, Hank Williams III, Clay Walker, Lyle Lovett, and LeAnn Rimes to name a few, Jo Dee Messina is fed up with Curb refusing to release her music.
Tim McGraw Wins Court Appeal, Is Finally Done w/ Curb Records
On Tuesday (9-25-12), the Tennessee Court of Appeals upheld a lower Chancery Court ruling denying a request by Curb Record to block Tim McGraw signing and recording with another record label. Barring another appeal being accepted by the Tennessee Supreme Court, this means Tim McGraw is finally free from Curb Records, his label for 20 years.
Curb Could Use McGraw Lawsuit as Wormhole to Big Machine Secrets
But more than just shedding light on Big Machine's relationship with Tim McGraw, the documents and interviews Curb Records is requesting could also unlock reams of Big Machine business secrets that could give Curb new strategic advantage over the much-younger Big Machine who is steadily gaining market share from Music Row's old guard.
Court Says "Not So Fast" to Tim McGraw's Curb Departure
Now the court has ruled in favor of Curb Records to postpone the trial until it can investigate the legal relationship between Big Machine Records and Tim McGraw. But once again, some outlets are falsely reporting the story, saying that Curb won and now all the music Tim McGraw has recorded with Big Machine is now the property of Curb. This is simply what Curb records is requesting from the court.
"Truck Yeah": Big Machine & Curb Competing w/ Tim McGraw Singles
An outright street fight of mammoth proportions is breaking out on Music Row in Nashville, pitting two of Music Row's heaviest hitters against each other, Mike Curb of Curb Records, representing the old guard and the heavy-handed restrictive way of handling artists, and the up-and-comer, Scott Borchetta, the Country Music Anti-Christ as the two men release competing singles from Tim McGraw.

John Goodlad, influential educational researcher and teacher whose work over the last sixty years has had a major impact on schools and the education of educators, died on November 29 at his home in Seattle. He was 94. "John Goodlad offered an alternative vision of what schooling should be," said David Imig,
"and inspired generations of teachers, principals, academics, politicians, and policy makers to find ways to make good on that vision." Imig, for thirty years head of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education and a long-time-colleague, said that Goodlad "was passionate in his beliefs about the role of schools in a free democratic society." But coupled with that passion was consideration for his readers and for those he worked with in person. "Goodlad could fill an auditorium with overflow crowds and challenge them to do better for all students. He had the perseverance to shake every congratulatory hand and to engage in conversation with an extraordinary range of adherents, critics, admirers, and detractors, all with civility and respect," said Imig.

"Narration undermines the story"
Sadly narrators have changed from the first book in the series to this, the second book. It was difficult to listen to the narrator make the intelligent protagonist sound like a breathy, silly girl. If you liked the first audiobook, I'd suggest you read the second.
"Written in First Person"
It could be me, I'm not a big fan of first-person narratives. It's a rare author that manages to get enough objective distance from her/his protagonist to get it right. This author made me wince with discomfort revealing a lack of insight or humor in over-long defensive monologues. I wanted to like it because of the setting, but gave up halfway.
"Smart and Satisfying"
A complex plot with a secondary line woven through it, an excellent writer, a thoroughly sympathetic detective, and Florence--it's hard to ask for more. The narrator captured the detective's character which more than made up for a few stumbles in Italian pronunciation and his voice was rich without sounding affected. Although I've read all of Magdalen Nabb's books, I savored this story as if I'd never heard it before--yes, that good. I'll go look for more in Audible.
"Be patient"
The story takes time to find it's depth. As a listener, just about the time I started to wonder if I would ever feel like more than a detached observer I felt a subtle shift in my relationship to the characters. They have stayed with me, pleasant company, weeks after I finished the story.
"Good story, shallow narration"
Why is it young adult novels get narrators that don't do justice to the characters? The narrator for this story made all the female characters sound the same--like a gaggle of silly valley girl stereotypes--and did no justice to the boys. The kids in my household found the narrator so annoyingly disrespectful of teen intelligence and emotional range that they dumped the recording after the first few chapters. This is just sad.
"Narrator Adjoa Andoh is fantastic!"
The story is good, the portrayal of layered and conflicting emotions nicely done, but the narrator is fantastic. She IS the characters. I was not aware of the narrator making an effort to "sound like" different characters, I heard their voices. Flawless.

I went to Berlin with my husband and we really love this aparthotel. A day before the we came, we searched around on how to get to the hotel because it was our first time to Berlin. So I emailed the hotel and in minutes they replied us back and told us which bus to take from the airport complete with the map of the airport bus-stop. The location was superb, not to far from Ku'damn and it's just fantastic.
The room it self was nice. We love the size of the room. The bed was comfy and the kitchen functioned really nicely. We actually cooked lunch one time in the room and it was nice. They provided a computer at the lobby area and also a printer so it was easy for us to searched some info about the city and printed it out.
We enjoyed our stay there and we definitely gonna come back when we visit Berlin again.
