Saint Jean de Lalande (died October 19, 1646) was a Jesuit missionary at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons and one of the eight North American Martyrs.
Jean de Lalande was a native of Dieppe, Normandy. He arrived in New France at the age of nineteen to serve with the Jesuits in New France as a donné, a lay brother. In late September 1646, Lalande was a member of a party led by Jesuit Isaac Jogues as an envoy to the Mohawk lands to protect the precarious peace of the time. However, Mohawk attitudes towards this peace had soured during the men's journey and they were attacked by a Mohawk party en route. They were taken to the village of Ossernenon (Auriesville, N.Y.), where they were decreed to be set free by the moderate Turtle and Wolf clans. Angered by this, the more hawkish Bear clan killed Jogues on October 18.[2] The next day, La Lande was killed when he attempted to recover the body of Father Jogues from the paths of the village.[3]
Jean de Lalande was beatified by Pope Pius XI on June 21, 1925 and canonized on June 29, 1930.[3] His feast day is October 19.
At Fordham University's Rose Hill Campus in the Bronx, New York, a freshman dormitory—Martyrs' Court—has three sections, which are named for the three U.S. martyr-saints: John LaLande, René Goupil, and Isaac Jogues.[4]
Saint Jean de Lalande is the patron saint of the Saint John LaLande Catholic Parish in Blue Springs, Missouri. A seven foot tall limestone statue of St. John LaLande, carved by Fritz Carpenter of the Stefan Mittler Monument Company in Madison, Wisconsin stands outside the church. A second wooden statue, depicting Jean LaLande dressed in bucksin was commissioned from Studio Demetz in Ortisei, Italy, and dedicated on May 18, 2013 in honor of the parish's seventy-fifth anniversary.[5]
Jean de Lalande also has special meaning to the Catholic youth camp Camp Ondessonk which honors the North American martyrs and their Native American friends.

Smack, I saw this and wondered if "apologise" was a misinterpretation of my "embarassed to say" - so just in case: after arguing how well almost any boat could do, I wasn't going to fezz up and admit that mine is "blue water", only three years old and hardly inexpensive. That was what I was shy about, in case someone thought rambling about handholds was snobbery
So OK, mine is an Ovni 395, with a lot of go-anywhere gear. Also, I go anywhere, have lived in it for a year traveling around (not just now), will cross north past the Polar Circle this summer, then straight south through Europe, and hopefully around New Year my address should be the Americas. The longest/furthest I have been without dropping anchor so far is 10 days at sea. It is not a snobbish boat, but much thought went into safety, self-sufficiency and such. There is a distant photo in my profile.
And, to be sure, it wouldn't worry me to try in a much less dedicated boat. In any case, Smackdaddy, I am as capable as you at sinking any boat, anywhere - guaranteed.

Thirty years before Patrick Swayze pranced across the silver screen, kids along the Gulf Coast and in South Texas were dirty-dancing to the sound of pounding pianos, descending horn riffs, and sentimental lyrics. The dominant musical motif was the triplet-a cluster of three notes performed in the time it takes to play two-and couples were belly-rubbing to the beat on dance floors from the Tiffany Lounge in San Antonio to the Big Oaks Club across the Sabine in Vinton, Louisiana. Today triplet classics like Fats Domino's "Blueberry Hill" still seduce those who remember their lilt and swagger.
Two who remember them well are Austin musician Doug Sahm, a walking history book of Texas musical styles, and Clifford Antone, Texas' blues impresario. Together they have paid tribute to this overlooked regional style with Juke Box Music, a soulful album of the rhythm and blues persuasion that Sahm recorded on the Antone's label. The new LP represents a comeback for the singer, who hasn't put out a record in the U.S. for six years. As a tribute to the beat both he and Antone love, Sahm's working nickname for the album was 'Triplets for a Dying World."
Though today Antone, 39, is known all over the country as the man who helped deliver the blues from obscurity, fifteen years ago he was a lonely urban pioneer with one consuming passion. His infatuation with the blues started when he discovered that the Fleetwood Mac and Cream songs he loved were actually written by Chicago blues masters. As an outlet for his love, in 1975 he opened a nightclub under his own name on Austin's then-unfashionable Sixth Street, featuring nothing but the then-unfashionable blues. Try as he might, though, he just couldn't get other people on the blues wavelength. Local heroes like Willie, Jerry Jeff, and, yes, Doug Sahm crooned their cosmic cowboy songs to overflow crowds in honky-tonks while Antone shook his head in disgust-as often as not, blues pioneers couldn't fill the seats in his own club.
"I don't listen to jazz and I don't listen to rock and roll and I don't listen to conjunto very much," he says. "I'm a blues man. Period. There's no play in me." Antone kept importing the blues masters to his club so that young upstarts like the Fabulous Thunderbirds (Antone's original house band) and Stevie Ray Vaughan could absorb their influential styles. By putting the two generations together, Antone catapulted the T-Birds and Stevie Ray to stardom and indirectly sparked a nationwide blues revival. After two moves, his club now seems permanently ensconced in its current location close to the University of Texas campus. Through it all, Antone has never given up on the blues.
With a taste for oversized suits and gangster fedoras, the burly Antone fits his chosen role of blues godfather. Add to his calculated look the less-celebrated fact that he spent about a year in prison in 1986 following a conviction for felony possession of marijuana, and there's no doubting his blues credentials. In 1987 the Blues Foundation in Memphis gave Antone's club one of its Keeping the Blues Alive awards. Further recognition in the form of a Grammy nomination came this year for harmonica master James Cotton's Live From Antone's, issued on the two-year-old Antone's label.
Years before Antone began paying his blues dues, Sahm was a confirmed musical dabbler. At twelve, he was a steel-guitar prodigy in San Antonio. Two years later he refused an offer to join the Grand Old Opry and went on to explore the rhythm and blues sounds popular in his hometown. In 1965 he became an international pop sensation as the leader of the Sir Douglas Quintet, adopting the sartorial look of the Beatles-led British Invasion and doing his own take with a slicked-up Tex-Mex polka called "She's About a Mover." Then he went west to ply his trade in San Francisco's psychedelic community.
Since then, Sahm, 47, has appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone two times, recorded with Bob Dylan, and cranked out more than a dozen albums, interspersing rootsy songs with amusing attempts to regain his standing as a pop star. He spent much of the eighties in Scandinavia and Canada, recording sporadically for several small labels and leaving the impression that save for a few songs on 1980's Hell of a Spell and 1983's underproduced The West Side Sound Rolls Again, he preferred kowtowing to someone else's vision rather than following his own.
Sahm and Antone are unlikely partners. Sahm is impulsive, restless, and energetic at all hours of the day. His rapid-fire patter is peppered with antiquated hippie lingo, and he enjoys an occasional belt of Jack Daniel's. Antone is deliberate, steadfast, and forceful, frequently ending sentences with an emphatic "Period." He says he gave up booze years ago for self-preservation. Sahm's wardrobe is blue jeans and a cowboy hat or gimme cap, which clashes with Antone's Mafia-don garb. Sahm has three children and one grandchild; Antone has never been married.
Yet backstage at Antone's, Antone and Sahm are backslappin' buddies, blues brothers in arms, associates by attrition. They joke about one of their favorite targets, a local music critic who, they claim, champions bands with funny names and funnier haircuts at the expense of "real" music. On the eighties musical battlefield, Sahm and Antone are united in a war against the pop confections of MTV, which they see as threatening the survival of more authentic artists.
Juke Box Music confirms their unlikely alliance, delivering a sound that is more fresh than nostalgic. Sahm's voice, heretofore raspy and in recent years downright hoarse, is full-bodied and forceful, thanks to the inspirational nature of the material and to drummer George Rains's no-nonsense production. From the high-note glide on Johnny Adams' "I Won't Cry" to the wistful snippet of "Goodnight My Love" that closes the longer compact-disc version, Sahm practically romps through this survey of simpler music and simpler times.

Active Child is the electronic-meets-choral project of musician Pat Grossi. Growing up in New Jersey, Grossi sang with the Philadelphia Boys Choir and was influenced by the rhythms of '80s alternative dance bands like New Order. Combining these elements with his otherworldly falsetto, live harp, and evocative lyrics, Active Child was born. The project debuted in 2010 with an EP, Curtis Lane, for Merok Records. These soaring soundscapes caught the ears of bliss popsters School of Seven Bells, who later toured alongside Active Child; they remixed each other's songs for a split 7". Active Child's first full-length recording, You Are All I See, followed in summer 2011 on the Vagrant label, taking listeners on an intimate journey of the highs and lows of relationships and identity. In 2013, Active Child returned with Rapor EP, which featured guest appearances from Mikky Ekko and Ellie Goulding.
Active Child is the working name of electronic music artist Pat Grossi. His debut album, You Are All I See, was released in 2011 and garnered substantial reviews from media outlets like Pitchfork Media and Drowned in Sound.

New Boston Police have recovered two stolen vehicles from other parts of the country, and made several arrests over the last several days.
In the early morning hours (12:38 a.m.) Sunday, officer Justin Bittinger said he observed a Ford Taurus commit a traffic violation, and upon checking the license plate number on that vehicle through the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) it showed the vehicle had been reported by the Bellville Police Department as stolen from Richland County, Ohio, just about four hours earlier. Bittinger, with the assistance of Sgt. Josh Carver, stopped the vehicle and found the driver to be Jamie Figueroa, 22, of Ashtabula, Ohio. Figueroa was arrested for receiving stolen property a felony in the fourth-degree. Figueroa was transported to the New Boston Police Department for processing and later taken to the Scioto County Jail.
According to the Bellville Police Department, the driver of the Ford Taurus was at their McDonald's Restaurant and had gone into the restaurant and had left the vehicle running. They said when the driver came out, the vehicle was gone. Figueroa indicated to officers that he had taken the vehicle from the McDonald's parking lot and was en route to Ashland, Ky.
Then at around 4:59 p.m. Tuesday, officer Jeff Mullins observed a Hyundai Accent with Nevada tags parked in the fire lane at Walmart. The tag was checked through NCIC and it showed that vehicle had been entered as stolen on Nov. 15, 2013, out of Las Vegas, Nevada. Officers kept the vehicle under surveillance and noticed a male and female had been entering and exiting Walmart several times.
Officers said they contacted Walmart loss prevention officers about the subjects and the vehicle and was advised the female and male had shoplifted items from the store. Mullins, with assistance from Carver and Bittinger, said they observed the vehicle drive away from Walmart. Officers said they stopped the vehicle. Roger Schnebelt, 24, of Georgetown, Ohio, was arrested and charged with shoplifting. Teresa Tomlin, 43, of Wurtland, Ky., was arrested for shoplifting, a misdemeanor in the first-degree and receiving stolen vehicle, a felony in the fourth-degree. Both suspects were taken to NBPD for processing and Schnebelt was released on bond pending a court appearance in New Boston Mayor's Court. Tomlin was taken to the Scioto County Jail pending her appearance at Municipal Court.
According to the Las Vegas Police Department, Tomlin had rented the Hyundai from a company called EZ Rent A Car on Nov. 15, 2013, and had failed to return the vehicle when required.
"Our guys are pretty observant out there, and you just don't know what you will run into when you run someone's tag or see a traffic violation committed," New Boston Police Captain Steve Goins said. "You can come up with a stolen vehicle as these two (officers) did; you could come up with a wanted person, or anything serious. You just never know what they're going to get into out there. We were able to make arrests out of both of them, and get the vehicles back to the rightful owners."

I remember a story my grandma used to tell about my mother when she was small. My mother had a beautiful "best dress"; my grandmother had a flatiron. Can you see where this is going?
One day, as my grandmother (Minda Mary Edgcombe BALL) stood chatting with her neightbour at her kitchen window, she saw my mother (Audrey Ball HAYWOOD) rocketing past. Immediately, my grandmother's suspicions were roused: "What's she been up to?" she wondered. She soon found out. My mother had seen my grandmother using the flatiron, and obviously thought there was nothing to it - so she decided to iron her "best dress" - except the iron was very hot, and she left a perfect iron-shaped print on the dress...

Kenny Loggins' new musical chapter
The veteran pop star now divides his time between his solo career and Blue Sky Riders, a talent-rich trio that teams him with two top Nashville veterans
At 45, Middleman is Blue Sky Riders' youngest member. She's old enough to be a music veteran and young enough to have grown up listening to Loggins & Messina.
Yet, while she has three solo albums to her credit, Middleman made her mark in Nashville as a first-call songwriter, penning hits for Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, Martina McBride, Reba McEntire, Terri Clark and others. Now, working with Loggins and Burr (whom she recently married), Middleman is able to stretch out vocally on stage in new ways.
"It's the first time I've been featured," she said.
"I used to be a back-up singer for Radney Foster, but this transition has been really easy and natural. When I got to Nashville, I was 21 and they'd never give me (vocal) solos, and I never knew why and was so hurt. They'd hire all my friends to sing solos. I was told I sounded too different and should imitate other singers. In this band, I get to do whatever I like as lead singer and it's been easy to step up. It's so easy to sing harmonies with Kenny and Gary. All of us share duties; we all sing harmony, we share leads. It's really organic and it's very natural."
Burr picked up the story thread.
"When we had written a third of the (Blue Sky Riders') album, we wanted to do a show," he recalled. "So we put together a band and did a show. But we had never been on stage together before. We wanted to play for (famed album producer) Peter Asher, so that he'd maybe help produce our record. Right as we went on stage, we were still deciding who would stand where, because we had no idea. That night, Georgia was an unbelievable star on stage. Kenny and I both looked at each other, like: 'Did you have any idea?' Because we had no idea she was that good. Then we thought: 'We'll have to get rid of her.' "
"So," Middleman joked, "after this tour, I'm fired!"

Fairgrounds operator would like to change the name – for the right price
County approval is required; commissioners court's stance is undetermined
For the right price, the firm that manages Nueces County's Richard M. Borchard Regional Fairgrounds would change the name.
Global Spectrum's contract with the county authorizes the sale of naming rights for the fairgrounds in its entirety, and for four individual fairgrounds buildings — the baseball stadium, conference center, central pavilion and equestrian center. Name changes would require Commissioners Court approval.
Global Spectrum fairgrounds manager Kelvin Moore said he is talking with several interested parties, including four serious contenders. He would not name them, nor would he elaborate onthe money-making potential of the naming rights.
"If by chance it becomes one partner wanting to name the entire property, there would be discussions on that and what the comfort level is among county commissioners on renaming the entire property," Moore said Tuesday. "If the money is there, if the potential suitor is the best deal for the county and the deal was campus-wide, we would engage the county in what that name would be. The name could change potentially if that is the case."
The fairgrounds is a cluster of new event facilities built in Robstown at a cost of $31 million thus far, with a $29 million arena pending.
County commissioners voted unanimously in October 2002, to name the fairgrounds after Borchard for his work planning it when he was county judge. But similar to deals that Corpus Christi Hooks baseball team owners made with Whataburger to name the ballpark and American Bank Center management firm SMG reached with American Bank, Global Spectrum counts naming revenues as part of its incentive package.
The fairgrounds has operated at a deficit since opening in January 2007. Global Spectrum has told county officials that the lack of income from naming rights is partly to blame, said County Judge Loyd Neal.
During the fairgrounds' first year of operations, measured as January through September 2007, the county projected a $392,000 loss. The loss turned out to be $1.4 million. This year, the fairgrounds is projected to lose $1.5 million – $715,000 more than the county anticipated at the beginning of the budget year.
"I don't have the exact figures, but they were expecting substantial dollars to offset the operating loss," Neal said. "Part of their overall budget included income from naming rights."
For comparison's sake, in 2004, SMG sold the naming rights to the new city arena complex to American Bank for $175,000 a year for the first five years. The number jumps to $180,000 annually for the following five years, city officials said. The Hooks/Whataburger agreement, between two private companies, is undisclosed.
The county will have to take a hard look at renaming the fairgrounds if the money is right and the deal is good enough, Neal said.
"There is a lot of emotion tied to the naming of the fairgrounds for Judge Borchard," Neal said. "But I think we have to look at any opportunity to affect any sort of financial impact on the finances of operating that fairgrounds. For me to consider changing the name on the fairgrounds, it would have to be for a very long-term commitment and the amount of money that would be received would have to make a substantial financial impact on the overall operations of the fairgrounds."
Commissioner Chuck Cazalas was undecided.
"I would need more time to think through it," Cazalas said. "Everything would have to be considered. Just what is the effect of doing something like that?"
County Commissioner Oscar Ortiz, who voted to name it after Borchard, said he opposes a name change.
"We made a commitment some time back to name it the Richard M. Borchard Fairgrounds," he said. "I think there are other opportunities to get money without having to take that drastic a measure."
Commissioners Peggy Bañales and Betty Jean Longoria did not return repeated phone calls Tuesday.
Attempts to reach Borchard were unsuccessful.

UN Chief Calls for More Attention on Links Between Literacy and Health
UN chief calls for more attention on links between literacy and health
UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 8 (Xinhua) — UN Secretary-General Ban Ki- moon called on Monday for more attention to be paid on the links between literacy and health.
"Illiteracy has a direct impact on human health," Ban said in his message for International Literacy Day, which is observed on Monday.
"It prevents people from being able to read the instructions on a medicine bottle," Ban said. "It means that people are less likely to know facts about AIDS, malaria and other infectious diseases."
"And because two thirds of those who are illiterate are women and girls, who often bear the burden of caring for sick members of their families, it means that they will be less likely to know about prevention and support services, and how to use life-saving medicines and other treatments," he noted.
Literacy is indispensable for achieving the Millennium Development Goals targeting maternal health and combating HIV and malaria, and for addressing some of the world's most important public health challenges, the secretary-general said.
Ban called for well-defined policies and increased investment to help people increase literacy skills.
The theme of this year's observance of International Literacy Day is "Literacy and Health."
Some 774 million people, roughly one out of five adults in the world, can still neither read nor write and 75 million children remain excluded from the educational system, according to UN statistics.

Paula Deen Using Prop. 8 to Dismiss Lawsuit
BY Michelle Garcia
July 03 2013 2:32 PM ET
Paula Deen's attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss the workplace discrimination lawsuit filed against her, citing the Supreme Court's decision to dismiss Proposition 8.
A former employee is suing Deen and her brother Earl "Bubba" Hiers for reportedly racist and sexist behavior in the workplace, their restaurant, Uncle Bubba's Seafood and Oyster House in Savannah, Ga. However, Deen's lawyers claim that the complainant is a white woman, so she does not have standing in court to claim that she was affected by racism, Politico reports.
The lawyers are using the Supreme Court's decision to dismiss Perry v. Hollingsworth last week, declaring that the proponents of Proposition 8 did not have legal standing to appeal the case in court.

Indian papal envoy to Ivory Coast dies in road accident
ABIDJAN – The papal envoy to Ivory Coast, Indian Archbishop Ambrose Madtha, has been killed in a traffic accident in the west of the country, the Ivorian church announced.
Madtha was travelling back from the northwestern town of Odienne to an ordination ceremony in the country's west on Saturday evening when his car collided with another vehicle.
"Unfortunately the apostolic nuncio died on the spot," said Mathieu Tehan, spokesman for the western diocese of Man where the ceremony was to take place.
President Alassane Ouattara, in a statement read on national television, expressed his "deep regret" at the death and sent condolences to the church and Madtha's family.
Madtha, born in 1995 in the southwest Indian state of Karnataka, became the doyen of the Ivorian diplomatic corps after arriving in 2008.
He tried to play a behind-the-scenes mediating role during Ivory Coast's 2010-11 political crisis when the previous ruler, Laurent Gbagbo, refused to step down even though Ouattara was declared winner of presidential elections.
The Catholic church was put in a delicate position since some of the country's bishops favoured Gbagbo, who comes from the country's majority Christian south.
Ouattara is from the largely Muslim north.
Last month Ouattara, accompanied by his Christian wife, met Pope Benedict XVI in Rome.
Ivory Coast and the Vatican agreed on "the role that the Catholic Church can offer for the good of the country, by encouraging and promoting human rights, dialogue and national reconciliation", the Vatican said in a statement at the time.
Gbagbo is now awaiting trial for crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
Around 40 percent of Ivory Coast's population is Muslim and 40 percent Christian. Some 20 percent are believers in native religions.

I use the release whenever i have the camera on a tripod. Usually this is for night or evening shots. I also use it when I am photographing paintings and other art work again using a tripod. I also use it in conjunction with Canon's 30' extension to have the camera remote or extended in the air on a Bogen auto pole or a large light stand to get a better angle for example of a building. I occasionally have had it go into the lock position during an exposure. Just have to be careful.

A nursing home watchdog group says Kansas nursing home residents would benefit from increased requirements for direct care from nurses and nurse-aides in nursing homes. Current regulations require adequate staffing to provide each resident a minimum of two hours of direct care daily.
The owners of a Topeka nursing home have filed a federal lawsuit in attempt to stay in business. State and federal officials have decided to cancel the nursing home's eligibility for Medicare and Medicaid payments, and revoke its operating license.

Demetrius Andrade teaching class on Fight To Educate card Sept. 21 in NH
MANCHESTER, N.H. (September 13, 2011) World Boxing Council (WBC) No. 14-rated Demetrius Boo Boo Andrade (14-0, 9 KOs) takes on two-time world title challenger Saul Baby Duran (38-18-2, 31 KOs), headlining the 10th annual Fight To Educate, at Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Andrade, fighting out of Providence, is coming off of an impressive victory by unanimous 10-round decision this past August 19th against The Contender, Season 2 winner Grady Brewer, winning nine of 10 rounds on all three of the judges scorecards.
The 23-year-old Andrade, who was a member of the 2088 U.S. Olympic Boxing Team, as well as the AIBA world champion, is ready to get back in the ring a little more than a month after his last fight. I need to stay active, Andrade said. Because Im not sure about plans to fight the rest of the year with the holidays, I felt this fight was a good opportunity for me. Im right where I wanted to be at this stage of my career, rated by the WBC, and the road has led me back to Manchester. The Fight To Educate is a great cause and another chance for me to fight locally and build-up my fan base.
A year ago, the gifted light middleweight fought on the Fight To Educate card, stopping Dave Sanders in the second round. The experienced Duran has fought 340 rounds as a pro during his 18-year career, compared to 56 in three years, and the tough Mexican fighter has been in the ring with some great boxers. In 1997, Saul extended Stevie Johnston the full 12-rounds in their WBC lightweight title bout, and 1 ½ years later he fought in Japan to controversial draw versus World Boxing Association (WBA) champion Takanori Hatakeyama. Duran holds notable wins against Hector Camacho and Wilfredo Ruiz, and also fought a draw with Ener Julio.
At this stage of my career, Andrade explained, each fight should be a learning experience for me. I didnt want to fight somebody Id just come in the ring and knock out quickly. Duran has fought a lot of great guys and Im going to gain a lot of valuable experience fighting him.
Another familiar figure in action next Wednesday will be 2008 U.S. Olympic Team Alternate Danny OConnor (14-1, 3 KOs), who squares-off against dangerous light welterweight Jamal Del Cid (7-5, 3 KOs) in the six-round co-feature. The popular Irish-American OConnor made his pro debut in the 2008 Fight To Educate card and the Framingham (Mass.) light welterweight has become a fixture in Manchester with this being his fourth straight year fighting in the charity fundraiser event.
Upset specialist Jose Stinger Medina (14-9-1, 6 KOs), from Tilton (NH), will also be in action versus an opponent to be determined in a six-round light middleweight bout. Medina, a native of Mexico, is coming off a controversial eight-round draw against former world champion Joachim Alcine, in which most observers felt Medina deserved a victory. In January, Medina scored a shocking fourth-round knockout of 17-1 Isaac Rodrigues.
Fighting on the undercard in four-round matches are Claremont (NH) lightweight Dan Powers (3-0, 2 KOs) vs. Luis Rosario, and Windsor (VT) welterweight Chris Gilbert (1-0, 1 KO) vs. Noel Garcia.
Fight To Educate is a unique charity event that combines a love of sports with the vision of assisting children and seniors in need, who with fundraisers like this could be down for the count. During the past nine years, Fight To Educate has raised more than $500,000 in donations benefitting local New Hampshire non-profit organizations.
Proceeds from the 10th annual Fight To Educate will benefit SEE Science Center (www.see-sciencecenter.org), The Bobby Stephens Fund for Education (www.stepheneducationfund.com), and St. Joseph Community Services/Meals on Wheels (www.mealsonwheelsnh.org).
Tickets, priced at $50.00 and $25.00 (general admission), are available to purchase by going online at www.ticketmaster.com, calling Ticketmaster at 800.745.3000, or at the Verizon Wireless Arena Box Office or any Ticketmaster location.
Table tickets for a night of professional boxing and Black Tie dinner, as well as an auction and meet-and-greet with special boxing legends such as former world heavyweight title challenger Gentleman Gerry Cooney, as well as world champions and three of New Englands all-time greatest boxers Vinny The Pazmanian Devil Paz,Irish Micky Ward and John The Quietman Ruiz are available by calling Stephen Singer at 603.669.4100.
The dinner starts at 5:30 PM/ET, doors for boxing open at 7:30 PM/RT with the first bout scheduled for 8 PM/ET.

BAM on Boxing: Rosado defeats Collins
The Fight
Last Friday (Sept. 9) at the Asylum Arena in South Philadelphia there was a boxing card promoted by Peltz Boxing, Don Chargin and Golden Boy. A quick look at the results were as follows:
King Gabriel Rosado defeated Keenan Collins, of Reading, PA, over 10 rounds to win the PA State Junior Middleweight Championship. Rosado, who always puts on an exciting and suspense-filled evening, trains at the Rivera Recreation center at 5th & Allegheny. He is a local hero and a source of inspiration to many kids growing up in his area. Keep an eye on him!
Bethlehem (PA) welterweight Ronald Cruz added another "W" to his record, taking it up a notch to 14-0, 11 K0s, a 75% knockout rating. He dismantled Chris Fernandez, of Salt Lake City, over six rounds of their scheduled eight-round bout. Cruz is getting better with every fight. Keep an eye on him as well! If he continues on his current track he will be headed for bigger things.
Fridays card was exciting! The matches were competitive and the fighters did not disappoint! It is easy to hop on the undefeated bandwagon, or even the Championship bandwagon. In my opinion, the undercard also was good.
I enjoyed the four-round heavyweight match between William Miranda, of Allentown and Lonnie Kornegay, of Baltimore.
Miranda lost a decision in a very tough fight, but I give him credit. He is what I call every man. He strikes you as a regular guy who comes to work and works hard. His physique is not chiseled but his heart is bigger than the State of Pennsylvania. He earns every penny he makes in the ring--so my respect to Miranda. Keep swinging and people will enjoy your fights.
Welterweight DeCarlo Perez (left), of Atlantic City, scored a stunning first-round knockout over Tolan Tascoe, of Newark, NJ. I am excited to have Perez on my first card: Bam Boxing Promotions, Sept 30, at the National Guard Armory, 2700 Southampton Road, Philadelphia, PA..
I read one of the best analysis of the card by John DiSanto, of www.phillyboxinghistory.com. John, you deserve recognition! You gave a clear, concise, detailed view of the Sept. 9 fight card. I started to put my twist on the nights fights, but figured you already have done that. There is not much more I can say than you already wrote. I urge the readers to check it out on his site. John is to the boxing keyboard what Floyd Mayweather is to the boxing ring.
Phillyboxinghistory.com contains the most in-depth information you can get anywhere. It resembles an online library of stories and stats about Philadelphia boxing. John also does a lot of work for fighters who may or may not know him. I am sure you will agree that his sources of information and his input are diversified!
What Makes a Promoter?
The definition of a promoter: a person that promotes something. So here I go!
We--and when I say we--I am talking about all the boxing junkies and enthusiasts, even the casual fan, must breathe life into this sport! These guys are fighting their hearts out, the promoters are taking risks and attendance for the Peltz card at the Asylum Arena Friday was around 730-740 people. If each person would have brought just one friend to the show it would have sold out.
If the fighters, managers and trainers sold a few more tickets there would have been a line at the door. Why would I want to do this? Because it grows the support that your fighter needs and deserves! Because it creates atmosphere, it cements friendships and supports everyone involved. It employs people--printers, reporters, fighters, concessionaires, beverage servers, DJs, film crews, TV cameramen, parking attendants, building managers, rental agents, boxing commissioners, referees, ring renters, and so much more! You have to have heart to be a fighter and you have to have heart to be a promoter.
We often hear people say we need jobs. If so, attend a boxing card and you will get you moneys worth. You will be stimulating the economy. There is nothing like a live event. You can drive to the Asylum Arena in South Philadelphia. The parking is easy, the security is good and the crowds are great. People are missing a night out with their sons, wives, girlfriends or business associates.
bam_postcard_02 Spread the word, invite someone to a fight! I have never heard anyone say: when I was a kid my dad made me go to the fights and I hated it! What I have heard is this: My dad would take me to the fights or I remember this fighter or that fighter.
A night at the fights establishes a basis for conversation and good memories that last a lifetime. When someone is describing a fight or a fighter they have seen their fists close and their arms go up. They describe the action and they re-live it! So spread the word, tell a friend, a boss, a co-worker. Get them to go with you to the fights!
I look forward to seeing you at my first show: Bam Boxing Promotions presents "The Beginning" on Friday, Sept. 30, at The National Guard Armory, 2700 Southampton Road. The souvenir program will have detailed stories about the fighters on the card. We will make all the arrangements for food, beverage, chair rentals and more.
We are donating our portion of the profits from food concessions to the Fox Chase Cancer Center. We will have "The Wall of Fame" and hang company or corporate banners for $200.00 and Bam will donate $100.00 from each banner to the Fox Chase Cancer Center as well.
I am working hard to get your business. We have an option to donate a ticket where people who cannot attend have purchased tickets and donated them. We have distributed a pair of tickets to Kensington High School. We will be getting tickets out to gyms and recreation centers throughout the city.
To professional fighters not on the card: If the only time you go to a boxing match is when you are fighting, then you are missing the opportunity to take a young child and spend some time mentoring him or her. We are working hard for your business and I look forward to seeing everyone on Sept. 30.

Doctors see 'cinnamon challenge' as a recipe for disaster
It is known as "the cinnamon challenge.'' You try to swallow a spoonful of cinnamon without drinking water - or vomiting - preferably as a video camera is rolling. It may sound like silly fun, but health professionals and a growing number of local school systems are warning parents that the practice can cause health problems including respiratory distress and choking.
The YouTube generation finds the trend hilarious. How else to explain the more than 10.9 million hits for a video of a woman with big gold earrings spewing cinnamon after a failed attempt? Or the 30,000 cinnamon-related videos on the website? The challenge has been around for years, but a video posted by two NBA players, and the growth of social media and camera-enabled smart phones, have sent it viral in recent months.
"I couldn't breathe out of my mouth,'' reported Ava Peters, 12, a Watertown seventh-grader who took the challenge a week ago with a friend. Like many other youngsters, Peters considered it something painful that must be endured, like a final exam or a braces-tightening appointment. "I was very happy I got it over with.''
Amy McCormack, a 17-year-old Medford High School senior, said she felt "somewhat accomplished'' after taking the challenge, especially since her friend, fellow senior Amylee Van, failed to "prove'' herself.
"I felt like I was going to puke,'' said Van, 17, as the pair giggled.
Doctors aren't laughing. They say the practice can cause serious injuries.
"The biggest problem is that the powder dries your mouth and throat, which makes it easier for it to enter your lungs instead of your stomach,'' said James Mojica, a pulmonologist at Massachusetts General Hospital.
That, in turn, can inflame the lungs, and lead to breathing difficulties, an acute lung injury, an aspiration pneumonia, or lung scarring.
Youths - the very people most commonly ingesting the cinnamon - are at particular risk, Mojica said. "Young patients can generate such high pressure when they cough that their lungs can collapse.''
Michele Burns Ewald, medical director of the regional center for poison control and prevention in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, said she has not seen cinnamon-related problems here. But in Ann Arbor, Mich., a high school student was hospitalized for four days with lung problems after trying the challenge, prompting the principal to warn the parents about the craze.
Some local schools are taking action.
The Bridgewater-Raynham Regional School District recently sent parents a letter informing them about the dangers of breathing cinnamon into the lungs and warned them that children with asthma or other respiratory ailments are at higher risk of complications. "It looks so disturbing,'' said Marie Fahey, the school district's nurse leader.
The Boston school system has not detected a problem and is not sending alerts, but schools in Brookline and Newton both plan to do so.
"You figure if you can let a few people know, you provide a little bit of safety,'' said Ruth Hoshino, the school nurse supervisor in Newton.
In Pottstown, Pa., the middle school banned the wearing of "open-top boots'' after a student was caught trying to smuggle in the contraband spice for cinnamon challenges. (The ban, since lifted, was mainly aimed at keeping cellphones out of school, but the cinnamon challenge was also a factor.)
Even people old enough to know better are braving the cinnamon challenge - or using it as a public relations opportunity. Governor Pat Quinn of Illinois took the challenge on a radio show in February. During the 2011 NBA lockout, two Washington Wizards players, Nick Young and JaVale McGee, made a video of their attempts, showing Young triumphant and McGee coughing.
With celebrities treating it so lightly, it is no wonder youths see it as mere entertainment. Dioni Daley, 17, a senior at Charlestown High School, said she experienced an intense burning in her mouth, followed by lots of spitting, while a friend recorded the whole episode on video. Still, Daley said she might try it a second time. "If I'm bored,'' she said. "I wasn't prepared the first time.''
While some parents might be concerned about the craze, others do not see a big threat.
"I have to admit I didn't know anything about it - it sounded totally benign,'' said Korin Zigler of East Bridgewater, whose 13-year-old daughter, Miranda, did the challenge last month. "At the risk of making myself look even more stupid, I'm a nurse.'' But, she added: "There are a lot more formidable things to worry about at this age.''
Miranda said it was no big deal.
"It's really funny,'' Miranda said, giggling. "My friend threw up when she did it.''

How to ruin the Mass Effect movie
By Mayu_Zane 40 Comments
After reading the news about a Mass Effect movie being in the works, I wondered "Now how would they completely mess it up and turn it into an unwatchable garbage of a movie?"
Sure, they could do something many others have done before when it came to videogame-based movies: Ignore most if not all of the original storyline and just write their own tale, but I have some ideas of my own on how to make it terrible.
1. Make Commander Shepard a Paragon/Renegade who constantly flip-flops between the two.
Movie Shepard is neither Paragon nor Renegade, but in fact a very unpredictable person who acts polite and considerate in one minute and then arrogant and aggressive in the next for no reason whatsoever other than the fact that he has a mental disorder.
Imagine this scene:
Shepard: "Nobody has to die, just put the gun down and let's think for a minute here. What will happen if you do kill the governor?"
Some Dude (SD): "My people will be free!"
Shepard: "No, your people would be in even more danger. The governor's just a small player, and if he dies you'd provoke a fleet you can't possibly win against."
SD: "I... I guess you're right, but what should we do?"
Shepard: "Let me have a chat with the governor for a second. Governor?"
Governor: "Yes?"
*Shepard shoots the governor dead.
SD: "What the hell?!"
Shepard: "The governor's dead, you should have no trouble from now on."
SD and the audience: "Huh? What? But what about the fleet-"
*Shepard shoots SD in the leg*
Shepard: "I'm going to find some medi-gel and save you! Don't move!"
*Shepard finds medi-gel and heals a confused SD, then walks away.
2. Gilbert Gottfried as Wrex.
Yes, the man who voiced that parrot from Aladdin. Just think of that voice saying "I've got a bad feeling about this Shepard." Imagine the confrontation on Virmire with Gilbert's voice.
Actually, putting Gilbert in any major role would pretty much kill the movie. Man, imagine Saren with that voice.
3. Make Garrus a goofy, clumsy sidekick who can't be trusted with a gun.
For 'comedic' effect, have him fall down every time he pulls a trigger.
4. Put Snoop Dogg in the role of Captain Anderson.
5. Male asari.
6. Make the movie three hours long, with two of those hours spent with a teenaged Commander Shepard
The first two hours is all about him trying to get into the Alliance. In the final hour, rush every single event between the attack on Eden Prime and the attack on the Citadel with as little dialogue and as many explosions as possible.
7. Tali Zorah wears a giant fishbowl helmet throughout the entire course of the movie.
She only speaks with 'glub glub'.
Of course, my ideas may actually sound great to some folks on planet Earth somewhere, though whoever those people are, I hope they won't have anything to do with the Mass Effect movie.
Share with me, fellow fans: What would make the movie terrible for you?

Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0: driven
The last 997-gen Porsche 911 is a 500bhp, naturally aspirated GT3 RS 4.0-litre. Out with a bang, then
Posted: 08 Aug 2011
So, this is the endgame limited-edition run-out special of the 997-series Porsche 911. And like a lot of run-out specials, it has a spoilers and stripes. And while they might be the maddest spoilers and the stripiest stripes you ever did set eyes upon, they aren't the point. Instead it's all about the engine.
This is definitely, positively, the last road-going appearance for the Mezger flat-six, so-called because it was the culmination of the brilliant career of Hans Mezger, one of Porsche's lynchpin engineers for four decades up to the mid-Nineties (the 917, the TAG McLaren F1 engine, dot dot dot). This crank and block won Le Mans in 1998, mid-mounted and turbocharged in the Porsche GT1 car. This is an engine with heritage, character and immense physical integrity.

John Thrasher, Likely Florida State President, Is Ethically Challenged
John Thrasher
John Thrasher, a Florida Senator and now the lone candidate for president of Florida State University, doesn't deserve the job.
Thrasher, a Republican lawyer, was reprimanded on the House floor back ithe 1990s after appearing as a lobbyist for his longtime employers, the Florida Medical Association. A year after leaving office, he had to pay a $500 fine after hosting a luncheon for his State House pals -- state law prohibits pols from lobbying for two years after leaving office.
In 2010, another controversy arose when it was disclosed that he had earned a $1.6 million from a lobbying firm that advocated for a bill he was pushing. Though he denied ever lobbying on behalf of the law -- Senate Bill 6, which would help two out-of-state firms get a foothold in Florida high stakes testing, the deal stunk, "Thrasher could find himself answering a lot more uncomfortable questions," concluded blogger and columnist Joy Reid.
That same year, disgraced Republican Party of Florida Chairman Jim Greer claimed in a lawsuit that Thrasher and two others had agreed to a secret severance for $124,000 as well as $200,000 in hush money so he wouldn't talk about it. Really, a university president who has agreed to pay hush money??
I covered the Florida legislature during the early years Thrasher was in office. The man was brusque, hard to reach, and always seemed to have multiple motivations for his actions.
Florida State is perhaps this state's top educational institution -- definitely one of the best two or three. Students there deserve a better role model.
