PORTLAND A police chase ended in a fiery crash in Northeast Portland early Thursday morning.
Police said the incident began when they tried to pull over 33-year-old Michael Fleming on Northeast 17th Avenue and Northeast Fremont Street.
They said Fleming did not stop. Instead, he started doing laps around the neighborhood at speeds of 30 to 45 miles an hour.
The car eventually blew a tire at Northeast 26th Avenue and Northeast Killingsworth Street and crashed into the front yard of a home. The car then caught fire.
Police said Fleming jumped out of the car and ran off, but his 42-year-old male passenger stayed and cooperated with investigators.
Fleming was captured and arrested one block away when he approached the police and asked what the commotion was all about. Officers said he explained that he was sweaty because he had just been doing push-ups in his backyard.

It works even with Fly IQ245 and HC-06 bluetooth module. Great!
(67 stars)
works well for what I wanted to do - read an incoming data stream from a bluetooth device and save that data. Two suggested small improvements: 1. when reading binary data, save the file as that raw binary data (not a text file depicting the binary data). 2. allow user option of selecting where to save data

NEWORLEANS - It has been another violent week in New Orleans, with four murders and two other victims injured in a series of shooting incidents.
The week started on a horrific note with the murder of 44-year-old cab driver Ali Husnain who was shot to death in his taxi before dawn on Monday.
Then on Tuesday, there were three more murders and one person injured in two separate incidents.
On Thursday evening, the violence continued with the shooting at an RTA bus stop.
On Friday, Crimestoppers will announce a new partnership with the Metropolitan Association of Realtors.
The realtors plan to work with Crimestoppers to get safety information into the areas of the community hard hit by crime, and to help make it easier to report crimes and to help catch the criminals.
They'll discuss their specific plans at a mid-morning news conference.

Local breakfast honors the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
"Martin Luther King has taught us all that none of us are free until we are all free," Rines said.
"I urge you to remember the dream (of King). It's still there and we haven't finished yet," he said in conclusion.
The Rev. Earl Norwood of Independent Church in Lake Elsinore reminded those at the breakfast that King "believed in all human beings, regardless of race, creed, or color.
"He was not just a civil rights leader, he was a prophet of God," Norwood said, adding that he believes King's famous "I Have a Dream" was prophetic.
Toward the end of the event, Lake Elsinore teacher Richard Gordon gave an impassioned reading of a book he authored called "Martin and the Mountaintop," a conversation he envisions between King and God.
Gordon told those at the event that the book actually started as a poem he read to a class. But a student suggested he turn it into a book, complete with illustrations, because Gordon's reading made it so easy to see the words.
Gordon said he took the idea to his wife, hoping she'd do the drawings, but she told him 'no' and that he should do it himself. Gordon said he reminded her that he couldn't draw, but did the illustrations anyway.
"This just shows that any of us can do anything if we put our mind to it," Gordon said.
Monday morning's event ended with Watts asking everyone to stand and hold hands to sing "We Shall Overcome," an historic anthem that became synonymous with the 1960s civil rights movement during which King was assassinated.

It helps me, Thanks
jorge cristian wrote:
I have noticed in mailaccess.log when a mail arrives to a user with an autoanswer filter active and configured, the part of the system that is responsible for delivering to the user's mailbox folder, which i think is called DOVECOT, puts a log saying
"discarding vacation response for implicitly delivered message; no known (envelope) recipient address found in message headers (recipient=<user@hostname>, and additional `:addresses' are specified)"
and that gave me a hint.
The problem is that DOVECOT does not uses the user's mail address.
After looking a way to correct this I found a line in master.cf, wich is located in /etc/postfix, that says
dovecot unix - n n - 25 pipe
flags=DRhu user=_dovecot:mail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d ${user}
# Use these settings to enable +addressing (email@example.com)
# flags=DRhu user=_dovecot:mail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d ${user} -a ${recipient} -m ${extension}
I've added at the end of the flags line what is suggested
-a ${recipient} -m ${extension}
and reloaded postfix master.cf
After that, vacation messages started to be sent.
Hope this helps.

I have to say that this is a huge step backwards for something that should be trivial. It was trivial in Snow Leopard and now they've made it hugely difficult to do something simple.

+1 for jorge cristian's modification to the dovecot flags.
Note that my master.cf file had the following timestamp:
0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 7422 Oct 10 2011 master.cf
So it's possible that other versions have the flags set differently. I'd be interested to know if that is the case for someone that did not need to make the modification.

'Tis the season of giving, and few people understand that better than Andrew Hales, who partnered up with GungHo to give random customers free groceries that day. Having someone else pay for your groceries can be a dignity issue for people, so they disguised the act as customers "winning a free groceries sweepstakes."
Officer, are you serious? C'mon! Hop to it!

Very pleasant stay at Domus dei Cocchieri! Although it is located directly in the city centre the room was quiet. The breakfast was amazing with homemade Sicilian specialties by the owners. Absolutely recommendable! Only one small remark: The parking space is directly at the street and not private. You need a small car (like everybody has) and excellent parking skills

I really liked the B&B. It was comfortable, clean and nice. However the wifi reception in my room wasn't the best. And I would liked a better curtain that could make darker the room. Because sometimes we eant to wake up later and we don't want to be woken up by the morning sun.

This was not a B&B but a home away from home. I found new friends and can't wait to see them all again very soon. Paolo is a most hospitable host and his family have the warmest hearts - my experience in Palermo could not have been a more authentic Sicilian experience thanks to them. From the first day, Paolo was helpful, generous and attentive. I'm proud to say I have a new Italian brother. The room, property, breakfast, facilities, service - all superb! I am so glad I booked this for Palermo.

Watch the Campaign Video here
The Bonded Stores in Margaret Street consist of three heritage buildings… O'Reilly's Bonded Stores, The Free Stores and Hotpoint House. The middle structure has 'O'Reilly's Bonded Stores Estd 1864′ written on the facade, however this building was actually constructed in 1913. This makes it 100 years old, the same age as the oldest of the Teneriffe Woolstores.
Despite their age and beauty these buildings are not heritage protected. In mid-December an application has been made for their demolition to create a temporary park.
This is because developers have to create a park if there will be a significant period of time between demolition and construction.
To destroy 100 years of our precious built environment heritage for a temporary park is unacceptable. The greenspace provided would only be temporary, the loss would be permanent.
The Bonded Stores are beautiful buildings, their demolition would destroy an almost fully intact heritage streetscape only one block from the Botanic Gardens in the CBD. The two neighbouring buildings (Watson's Buildings, 1887 and HB Sales Building, 1912) are state heritage listed. Together, these five buildings provide a rare example of the evolution of warehouse architecture and our state's early industrial heritage from 1887 to 1923.
We are not against development of the site but the existing facades at least should be retained as a podium for any new tower development. We hope the developers and project architect Noel Robinson will have a change of heart. Why not make use of the beautiful brick facades, windows and especially the 'O'Reilly's Bonded Stores Estd 1864′ typography? It would make for an incredible restaurant space, entrance to a foyer or ground floor retail. The patina is irreplaceable.
Brisbane has lost so much of its character, we must preserve what we have left. We encourage the developers Sam and Paul Chong to build something unique and not create just another concrete tower. The knock 'em down approach to old buildings belongs in the Bjelke-Petersen era, not 2014. There is a better way.
If you want to live in a city that retains its character then please get involved!

Just started writing an assembler for the imaginary computer my class is creating wire-by-wire since the one the TA's provided sucks hard. I chose python even though I've never really used it that much (but know the basic syntax) and am loving it.
My favorite ability is how I can take a method I just wrote, paste it into the shell and then unit test it by hand (I'm using IDLE).
I'm just wondering if there is a way to expose all the symbols in my python code to the shell automatically, so I can debug without copying and pasting my code into the shell every time (especially when I make a modification in the code).

André Lamar Phillips (born September 5, 1959, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) is a retired American Track and Field athlete who is best known for winning the 400 metres hurdles gold medal at the 1988 Olympic Games.
Phillips spent most of his career in the shadow of his idol, Edwin Moses, frequently as runner up during Moses' unequaled winning streak. He managed to beat him once, at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul. In 1983, Phillips finished fifth in the 400 m hurdles at the inaugural World Athletics Championships. In 1985, in absence of Moses, Phillips won his only US National Championship title, and also won the IAAF World Cup. In 1988, Phillips lost to Moses at the Olympic trials, but showed a good pace at Olympics, winning his heat and semifinal. In the final, Phillips ran his personal best 47.19 to win a gold medal, beating second-place Amadou Dia Ba from Senegal by 0.04 seconds. The two times currently still rank them as the #5 and #6 performers of all time. Although Moses ran his fastest Olympic final, he finished only third in a time of 47.56.
In 2009, Phillips was inducted into the National Track and Field Hall of Fame.[1]
Phillips attended at University of California, Los Angeles, and won the 400 m hurdles at the NCAA championships in 1981. Prior to that, he attended Silver Creek High School in San Jose, California, where he won the CIF California State Meet in the 300 low hurdles in 1977.[2] in 36.43. He continues to hold the 300 IH (Intermediate Hurdles) hurdle record at Silver Creek at 37.1 sec. He joins 1976 4x100 metres relay Gold medalist, and individual 200 metres Silver medalist Millard Hampton, in one of the rare instances (the school claims only eight exist) of two unrelated Olympic Gold Medalists coming from the same high school. Silver Creek continues to host the "Hampton Phillips Classic" named in their honor.[3]
Phillips is a former teacher at Stagg High School, a former Assistant Principal at Franklin High School, and is now the current Principal at Stagg High School in Stockton, California.

Clanton mayor presents $10.5 million budgetBy Stephen Dawkins Published 9:10pm Monday, September 24, 2012
Clanton Mayor Billy Joe Driver proposed a $10.5 million budget for the upcoming fiscal year, but Clanton City Council members wanted time to look over the budget before they took action on it.
Driver presented the budget at Monday's city council meeting. He said the recent municipal elections, which saw Driver re-elected to another four-year term in office, have caused a delay in the process of presenting a budget.
"The elections run so close that we're running a little behind," he said.
Instead of immediately approving the budget, the council decided to adopt last year's budget and take the two weeks until the next scheduled meeting to pore over Driver's proposal.
Last year's budget was set at $9.87 million.
The council also voiced support for the mayor's plan to include the replacement of a bridge on Higgins Ferry Road as part of the state's Alabama Transportation Rehabilitation and Improvement Program.
A project to resurface Higgins Ferry Road from Interstate 65 Exit 208 to the intersection with Lay Dam Road has already been approved for ATRIP funding, which comes with a required match of 20 percent.
Driver said the bridge is not in bad shape.
"It's held up good; it's just narrow," he said.
In other business, the council:
•Accepted a bid for new dumpsters in the city. New Life Environmental submitted the lowest of three bids: $822 each.
•Opened bids for a plan to distribute weather radios to every residence in the city. The bids must be reviewed by a state agency prior to any bidder being awarded the project.
•Heard state Rep. Kurt Wallace present resolutions to the family of long-time Chilton County law enforcement official James Earl Johnson and to Bobby Easterling, who has served on the city council since 1976.
•Waived the business license requirement for the Clanton Kiwanis Club, which sponsors the Chilton County Fair each year. The fair began Monday and will last through Saturday at the Chilton County Fairgrounds.

Comments about Womens R-Gear Run, Walk, Play Knee Unlined Shorts:
These knee shorts are ideal if you want a little more than shorts but don't want to wear full tights or pants. The fabric is incredibly comfortable with a flattering stretch and fit. Not too low rise but not granny either. Wide waistband is nice. PERFECT choice for weight training or a walk/run outside in cool weather. They also cover up those little flaws for the older athlete. You know what I mean gals! Highly recommended.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
Since it opens with a suicide bombing in downtown Tel Aviv, and since its mystery plot involves an attempt to track down a sheikh whose public expectorations call for the slaughter of Israeli civilians, The Attack is most avowedly "about" terrorism. But that's a subject, not the subject. The film, an arresting and upsetting one, is also about love, trauma, and trust, both within one particular marriage and within entire cultures. There's an explosion (offscreen), much gumshoeing, and the most nerve-racking interrogation I've seen in ages, but this prickling thriller is too invested in life as it's lived to bother much with thrills—or even a traditional mystery. Not long after that blast kills 11 children we're told who did it. Director Ziad Doueiri, a perceptive humanist working from a (surprisingly bleaker) novel by Yasmina Khadra, instead digs into what the headlines about such damnable acts rarely bother with: the why.
That has an easy answer and an impossible one. While already banned in some Arab nations due to the Lebanese director's insistence on filming in Israel, and certain to stir up anger here and in Israel among audiences who mistake that humanism for excuse-making or equivalence-drawing, the film endorses nothing more controversial than the idea that it's worth our while to try to understand what could spur troubled souls to murder. Much of the drama could apply to the mothers of American school shooters.
Ali Suliman stars as Amin Jaafari, an Arab-Israeli surgeon so accepted in the Promised Land that when we first meet him he's being honored with an award from his colleagues, one we're told no Arab has ever received. The next day, that bombing kills 17 civilians, and we see Jaafari in impressive E.R. mode, slicing open burn tissue and pounding on chests to reignite heartbeats. (One wounded victim, recognizing Jaafari's heritage, demands a different doctor.) Soon, he is summoned before a Shin Bet investigator, who insists that Jaafari must have been involved in some way—after all, the suicide bomber appears to have been his wife.

Despite the political urgency—the interrogator tells Jaafari his case has "destroyed all of the trust Israel has for its Arab citizens"—the film's heart is in wrong-man thriller plotting, mixed up with those chestnuts torn-between-worlds and "I married a whatnow?" Jaafari argues that his wife was born a Christian; the interrogator snaps back, "A true convert! She really had to prove herself." Later, when Jaafari sets out for the Palestinian territories to track down the men he believes must have brainwashed her, everyone he meets assumes he's working for the Israelis, even members of his family.
The answers he turns up are as inevitable as they are inconclusive. We discover which particular controversy radicalized her, but neither Jaafari nor the movie makes much of that. More elusive is how his wife developed the capacity to do what she has done—both to kill and to hide her ferocious beliefs from her deeply secular spouse. Through romantic flashbacks and a couple pieces of surprising evidence, we apprehend something of who she was, right up to the day of her martyrdom. The most frightening thing in the movie—maybe in the movies this year—is her loving decency.Follow @VoiceFilmClub

"We weren't just having a GREAT TIME we were having a FABULOUS time!! This year brought us to over 30 years of experiencing Palm Springs. The consensus of everyone in the group was that this is our all time favorite memory and our very favorite home! Your website and the virtual tour doesn't do your home justice ! Everything was just perfect, from the furnishings, amazing artwork, the layout, the yard, patio, pool, spaciousness, location. I could go on. One of the 'girls' in the group is a professional decorator and she couldn't say enough about your home. Your appointment to detail was to perfection!! We will definitely be back and I hope to use the home with my family as well. Thanks again for enabling us to have the perfect time ...in the perfect setting...in the perfect home."
Barbara W. San Diego, CA
'My needs were simple. To celebrate my partner's birthday, I wanted a weeklong rental of a nice house in Palm Springs, with a pool and enough bathrooms and beds for her family to join us on the weekend. The pictures and descriptions on the website were nice, but having rented many vacation homes in the past, I know that things are not always as they appear on screen. That was absolutely not the case on Alta Loma Drive. My high expectations were quickly exceeded. Here's what we got: a beautiful, clean and uniquely decorated and lit home and outdoor area, a heated saltwater pool and spa, a great kitchen with every appliance we would need (and we cooked 3 meals a day), TVs in every room, a great sound system and home theater set-up, outdoor dining, a manicured park and private tennis courts across the street, (rackets and balls provided), a computer with fast internet access, breeze-manufacturing ceiling fans outside, and very nice neighbors. We'd had big plans to visit downtown, go to Joshua Tree, see some interesting desert architecture, etc. It didn't happen. Except to shop for groceries, we never left the house. It was as close to perfect as eight days at 110+ degrees can be.
I was hesitant to post this note for obvious reasons. I don't want you renting this beautiful house the next time I call Clark to check its availability.
Oh, and one last and very important comment – The home's air conditioning system was a selfless, tireless champion of our comfort.' - Philip M, San Francisco, CA
'Just returned from a fabulous 2 week stay - the weather and the house were perfect. We have been coming to Palm Springs at least once a year for the last 5 years now and this is by far the nicest house we have rented. All the little details make it a real home away from home, the piano, the computer, etc. The only problem we had was leaving - we simply didn't want to go back to the UK! Clark was very helpful with all our enquiries. We want to come back next year but you are getting booked up already!' - Samantha & Kate, East Sussex, England

I am the owner and manager of two houses in south Palm Springs and also manage a third luxury home in nearby Indian Wells. Here in Los Angeles I am a property manager for a charming house and guest house in West Hollywood frequently rented by actors, writers, producers and other members of the entertainment industry. I also manage two beautiful houses in Hanalei, Hawaii on spectacular Kauai. I take pride in the upkeep of all these properties and my business philosophy is to offer a high quality experience for a reasonable price. In addition to my work as a property manager, I am a writer and painter. Thank you for stopping by.
Clark Carlton purchased this house in 2004
Quiet upscale neighborhood of spacious homes in wind-free south Palm Springs.
Across the street from park with free tennis courts, large grassy area for dogs, only a few minutes from Downtown Palm Springs, even closer to the Smoke Tree Shopping Center with great super markets, Pet Smart, World Market, craft store, restaurants.
As the other reviews say, this house is amazing and the pictures just don't do it justice. While there was only 3 of us, the layout is perfect for a larger group or multiple couples since one bedroom is on the other side of the house. The pool and hot tub are incredible and definitely worth paying for the pool heat in the winter. Clark responds immediately to any questions and was just a pleasure to work with. The backyard is totally private and the outdoor furniture is beyond comfortable. Made fresh juice in the mornings from the citrus trees. The location is just a few minutes from multiple stores so it was easy cooking meals there. The winter is a wonderful time to visit Palm Springs and we were swimming in the pool with 84 degree weather on Thanksgiving day!! The extra touches that I have not had in other rentals were there including lots of towels, soft sheets, comfortable beds and every kitchen utensil you need for cooking. The bbq was already hooked up to gas (have rented several homes with gas BBQ and propane tank is always empty!) You just can't go wrong with this home, we will definitely be back!!
What more can be said about Perfect.
This house exceeded all our other stays in Palm Springs.
The pictures do not do this home justice. It is very beautiful, impeccable, more than accommodating! My family and myself were very comfortable and relaxed.
I highly recommend this house to anyone traveling to Palm Springs.
It made our vacation Perfect !
Thank you to Clark for all of his help, promptly answered emails and telephone calls....you made this easy. I appreciate you.
Wow! What a place! The pictures shown do not do this place justice! the artwork and furnishings are beautiful. The layout is fantastic. My sister, her two kids, and myself were very comfortable and enjoyed having our own rooms and bathrooms. The house was spotless and and well stocked with dishes, towels, etc. The location could not have been more convenient- nearby stores, restaurants and parks. The owner, Clark, was very welcoming and helpful. My e:mails were always answered promptly. I would not only recommend this vacation property, we would stay here again without hesitation!
Exceeded our expectations. Well above anything we have rented in the past. Clark we so great to deal with and the house was incredible, the decorating exquisite. Every day we noticed a different piece of art and the pool and spa were perfect. The property was clean, quiet and everything was there to ensure and fantastic vacation.
We had an amazing time in Palm Springs and could not have been happier with our choice to rent this house for 15 nights. The house is very well stocked with linens and everything you could need in it's kitchen. Every inch of the home was spotless when we moved in and the layout is very spacious and bright. The house is on a very quiet street, in a nice neighbourhood, with in walking distance to stores and restaurants. There are wonderful paths for running/walking or biking. The yard is furnished to comfortably fit 6 people, with a lovely large eating table as well as lounging furniture. The pool was serviced twice/week and yard maintenance people also came twice to ensure things were tidy. We didn't have to do anything but enjoy the pool, spa and this wonderful home!
And extra thank you to Clark, who answered our questions and acknowledged our emails immediately. It was a true pleasure staying at this property!
This was my fifth stay at this wonderful house in the past seven years.Usually i'm here with my golf buddies, but the last two times have been with my family.I felt I had to share what they have been missing. The home is perfect for our needs. There's a golf course walking distance away, the city of Palm Springs is minutes away as well as the airport and my favorite pizza joint along with Ralph's groceries are a few blocks from the house. The house is well kept, awesome furnished and the kitchen renovation is amazing. The pool and patio area is my fave,just can't beat the heated pool! All in all the place is wonderful and I'm looking forward to coming back. A special thanks to Clark, the owner, for being so cooperative and easy to deal with. The pleasure was all ours.....
We are just around the corner from the Mesquite County Club and just south of the Bel Air Greens golf course. Our street and backyard face a view of the spectacular San Jacinto mountains on the west side. Area is very quiet and private and gets very little traffic. Across the street from this house is a lovely green park with two well maintained tennis courts where you can play at night. Just a few minutes drive away is downtown Palm Springs with its galleries, restaurants, night life and casinos. It's a warm and tranquil piece of paradise.

Did you used some reference?, i just think this is awesome if you did it from nothing but your own imagination.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
It's awesome!
I can't put my finger on it, but it got some kinda deepness to it. And I get stuck in it by looking at this peice.
I think I can't agree more too what the oter one's said already.
It's truly a masterpiece.
Keep up the great work!
As I got more into the theme of the piece, I found that she was being in shock or awe by something. The necklace also has a purpose as to what is going on infront of her as it floats and shines brightly. I've always been a sucker for eyes.
Thanks for your reply, it's greatly appreciated! :)

In a genre that stresses heaviness, riffs, chops, and menace above all else, Georgia-based Kylesa is something of a rarity.
The five-piece psychedelic-metal band is most notable for its strong sense of melody and dynamics within undeniable heaviness, and that's partly a function of having three vocalists (including a woman!) and two drummers. But Kylesa is greater than the sum of those parts, commanding a wider range of feelings and textures than most metal bands even attempt, let alone pull off. They caress listeners while still bludgeoning them, often at the same time and rarely straining.
Playing RIBCO on October 8 as part of the Sanctioned Annihilation Tour with High on Fire and Torche, Kylesa is poised to release the majestic, thunderous Spiral Shadow on October 26, and it might be my favorite metal album in years.

It's a sentiment that should come standard-issue with any virtuosity.
"I do have to check myself, because sometimes I can find myself doing overly complicated things, and I think, 'Wait, am I doing this because it makes the song good or because I'm trying to show off?'" said Kristian Dunn in a recent phone interview. "It usually ends up being the latter, and it gets cut. You've got to be tough with yourself in this kind of situation."
"This kind of situation" is pretty funny, because it's unlikely that El Ten Eleven has much company in what it does. An instrumental duo featuring Dunn on guitars (often a double-neck) and drummer Tim Fogarty, the band makes extensive use of looping and effects pedals to build tunes that would seem to need three or more players. "Fat Gym Riot," from 2008's These Promises Are Being Videotaped, climaxes with thick bass and twin (or perhaps triplet) lead guitars.
But when El Ten Eleven returns to RIBCO on September 27, there will be just Fogarty and Dunn and the latter's 13 pedals, trying to make the extraordinarily complicated seem like merely good music.

The blurb that accompanies any write-up of the New Orleans-based rock band Cowboy Mouth comes from Cake magazine: "On a bad night they'll tear the roof off the joint, and on a good night, they'll save your soul."
For drummer, singer, and primary songwriter Fred LeBlanc, a great live show -- which will be on display at RIBCO on Friday -- is both natural and a necessity.
The band has been around for two decades now, with the constant core of LeBlanc and guitarist, singer, and songwriter John Thomas Griffith. By LeBlanc's count, Cowboy Mouth has had 427 bassists and 1,628 guitar players.
"The crux of the band has always been me and John," LeBlanc said in a recent interview. "John and I always had a chemistry, and we always built a band around that. We had all done stints in major labels before the band, and so it was: What do we have that they cannot steal from us? They can steal songs from us; they have. They can steal recordings from us; they have. But they can't steal playing live. ... That's how we built our reputation."

When I talked with Nathaniel Rateliff earlier this week, he was driving a dump truck for his job as a gardener, and closed the interview with these pronouncements when asked if there was anything he'd like to mention: "I love to swim. I like poultry."
Aside from hinting at a dry sense of humor, these things suggest that Rateliff is grounded person. And that's reflected in the path that he's chosen.
The Denver-based singer/songwriter, who will perform two Daytrotter.com shows on August 27, had an opportunity to have his rock band (Born in the Flood) and perhaps his current folk-ish outfit signed to the Roadrunner label. But he chose instead to follow his heart.

Nick Curran's Reform School Girl starts with Etta James' "Tough Lover," in which the Austin, Texas-based singer, songwriter, and guitarist breaks out his best Little Richard impression while staying true to James' performance, from the opening growl forward. The album ends with AC/DC's "Rocker." In between are 12 Curran originals that make the compelling case that the essence of rock and roll didn't change much from 1956 (when "Tough Lover" was released) to 1975 ("Rocker") to 2010 (Reform School Girl).
Curran, who will perform with his band the Lowlifes at RIBCO on August 30, brings punk ferocity and grit to decidedly old-school rock, rockabilly, and blues. His music is undoubtedly retro, but his treatment of classic styles is so earnest, dirty, and fiery that it's impossible to fault him.

Hamlin celebrates, Gordon laments a blown chance
HAMPTON, Ga. While Denny Hamlin whooped it up in Victory Lane for the second week in a row, Jeff Gordon lamented one that got away.
It might just cost the four-time champion a shot at winning his fifth title.
Taking advantage of a late yellow flag, Hamlin got a boost from his pit crew and held off Gordon in a green-white-checkered finish at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Sunday night.
Gordon, like a number of drivers in the race, desperately needed a win to boost his chances of getting into the NASCAR playoff.
He was right on Hamlin's bumper heading into the turn three, right where he needed to be to pull off a dramatic pass for the win. But Gordon didn't stick close enough to the leader to make his car a bit wobbly. Instead, it was the No. 24 car that drifted up the banking, allowing Hamlin to pull away for the victory by a couple of car lengths.
"I guess I'm getting soft in my old age," the 41-year-old Gordon said. "I'm too nice. Fifteen years ago, Ii would have just moved him right up the racetrack. I don't know why I didn't do that."
With a win, Gordon would have been in a strong position to claim a wild card into the Chase. Now, in all likelihood, he has to win next weekend's race at Richmond to advance to the 12-driver playoff.
Either that, or make up a daunting 12-point deficit on Kyle Busch, the guy right ahead of him in the standings.
"It's going to be intense," Gordon said. "Don't get in front of me on that last lap."
Ten drivers have locked up their spot in the Chase, and Kasey Kahne is well positioned to take one of the wild cards (two wins this season, 11th in the points). That leaves Busch, Gordon and three other drivers with a win this season - Marcus Ambrose, Ryan Newman and Joey Logano - essentially fighting for one spot.
"I've been a part of it where I've either been trying to get in like this, or trying to stay in the Chase," Gordon said. "There's so much on the line, trying to win the race. That race is always intense. But when you look at how many guys have to win the points and everything else, it's going to be a pretty crazy night."
After a largely uneventful race, all sorts of subplots developed on the harried dash to the finish.
Coming off a win at Bristol, Hamlin knew a series-leading fourth victory of the season would put him in position to be the top seed after Richmond. Also on his mind was keeping Gordon from getting to the line first, which would have severely damaged the hopes of Busch and Logano, Hamlin's teammates at Joe Gibbs Racing.
"I'm going to do whatever it takes to get as many (Gibbs) cars in there because it helps me," Hamlin said. "We need Kyle in there, we need Joey in there, and if Jeff won that race, it was going to be all over. We had to do what we had to do."

Things I liked:ACCURATE and QUIET / the 2 most important needs for me.I got the .22 which I find has much better take-down power than a .17.You can take out small game without perfect shot location. I can only find the Crosman .22 HP pellets locally , but they work fine in this gun.
Things I would have changed:Anything to lighten the weight if it wouldn`t affect the accuracy. Also reduce trigger pull. I think that this gun was made for a football linebacker not a weak old man like me.
What others should know:This Rifle is HEAVY and HARD to cock..I use 2 hands,but that`s OK , I`m not a plinker but a sniper.It only takes 1 good shot.. The scope is good enough, no need to upgrade the scope. For the price , I`m happy with this gun. Umarex is paying better attention to detail...No more tags in the breech and the screws are loc-tightened.
Things I liked:The power of this air gun is superb. With my Benjamin NP2 I could not break El dorado rum bottle at 30 meters. With this gun they have absolutely no chance of surviving at 60 meters. Excellent. Great value for money even with the changes that I will make.
Things I would have changed:The gun has a bit of barrel droop which I seem to have compensated for with a small shim on the mount. The trigger is so heavy a pull that it is difficult. I think a different trigger has to be purchased and fitted.
What others should know:Very impressive gun but somewhat heavy to carry and the pull strength to cock the gun means that it is not for the weak. Based on the reviews I did not even mount the scope that comes with it and instead used a rather better one. Great accuracy when I can control the strength of trigger pull
Things I liked:For the money a very nice rifle. This is my first venture into adult airguns. It took about 50 rounds to settle in and is now shooting dime sized groups at 20 yards. So far the scope is holding zero but time will tell how long that lasts. The scope is quite nice for a packaged scope, very clear even in low light. Seems to be a good value package for the money.
Things I would have changed:A little louder than I hoped but not to bad with lead. More recoil than I expected from an airgun, I would say similar or even a bit more than a 22lr.
What others should know:This is a big airgun it is very long and a bit loud, after break in its a bit better but after a quick cleaning it took about 50 rounds to settle down.

You know what gets a bad rap?
Listen my friends, nuts are an extraordinary way to get omega-3s.
Don't be so fearful of the calories, just don't overeat them. In fact, have you considered toasting your nuts? This is an amazing snack and so simple to do.
In a shallow baking pan place chopped almonds, chopped walnuts, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds (actually, you can use any nuts you like) place in a preheated oven at 425 degrees. That's it; just roast them in a hot oven. Just keep checking, ovens will vary.
What you are looking for is a nice golden brown color. I sprinkle these toasty little treats on so many different meals. They just seem to make everything taste better. Great on oatmeal, salad, fruit, yogurt; actually anything you can think of.
I have been eager to remind you to toast your nuts, and since we were on the subject of omega 3s I thought it would be a great opportunity. Try it as soon as you can, keep some of them whole and carry them around with you; they really do make a healthy treat. Don't worry about the calories; you should make them a part of your day.
Now let's change the subject to eggs. I feel it important to share this expert opinion from one of our physicians. I must say it's kind of crazy how often I hear people avoid the yolks.
There has never been a study that verifies a link between cardiovascular disease and egg consumption. Eggs are one of nature's most complete, balanced foods. Of course, the best eggs are from chickens that have been raised as "free range" who eat pesticide free, anti-biotic and growth hormone free diets and whose omega-3 fats are
The problem with eggs might just be the way you prepare them (fried is the least healthy). You might want to consider putting them in a blender raw as part of your healthy morning shake with some greens, almond milk, whey protein, etc.

Which professional's serve should I copy?
My serves aren't too great, and even though I understand the basic principles like bending your knees and twisting your forearm for pronation, I want to have something to look at and copy. Which professional's serve should I analyze and get principles from to improve my serve? What should I look for similarities in? I'm about 5'9.5-10'' (I'm 14 and a male), so should I copy a serve from a pro who's about the same height as me (like Michael Chang)? Or does that not matter. I obviously don't need the best serve on the planet because my main focus right now is to make sure my serve is good enough to make my pretty good high school team. Which professionals' the easiest to copy and learn quickly? I'm looking at Djokovic because, in my opinion, his entire game is quite simple and fundamental and effective, whereas someone like Nadal is an oddball. Should I go with him? I know these are a lot of questions. Thanks and sorry for the trouble.
Sampras', and then +/- as you wish, because some parts of a motion just won't gel with the individual. Instead of trying to be a carbon copy of a particular motion, take the concept behind the motion, and mold it into your own. That's what I did :)
Couple things I removed from Sampras' motion were:
- The "take-aim" part where he brings his racquet and ball forward before he starts the the motion. That's just too much motion for me, and it messed up my rhythm. I kept a small part for it, but I didn't bring the racquet/ball up to my face.
- The "high-elbow" finish. I just couldn't do it.
I agree Sampras is a great template.
I agree that many elements of the Sampras serve are worth studying but modifications are needed for most players trying "copy" his serve. His toss is a bit too high for many players. I prefer Federer's tossing height & style. Sampras' racket lags quite a bit behind the tossing arm. Because of of this he needs the higher toss to be able to synchronize the motions of his arms (wrt each other). When I "copied" his serve, I went with a lower toss and adjusted the synchronizations of the arms accordingly.
Take a look at the image of Pete below. The ball is already 2-3 feet out of his hand and his racket is still down -- it has a way to go to get to the trophy position. This is not the "down together, up together" motion that many coaches teach. Check out the Federer-Sampras video serve comparison. Look at the difference in their racket position at about the 0:24 mark. Roger's racket position is much to the trophy position than Pate's. Federer's arm sync/timing would be easier to copy that Sampras'.
I feel Federer motion is easier to build upon. Though Sampras has much better serve, I could never arch my back way he did.
To the OP, to take inspiration from a serve it is really important to look at what are the broad, important movements and separate them from the superfluous extras or particular traits which rely heavily on some special ability (Sampras's foot point and his freaky shoulder flexibility for example). Not all great serves can be easily scaled down to a club player.
Sampras's serve was a piece of artwork and many people say they were inspired by his despite not obviously having much commonality with his at all. Federer definitely did. He and guys like Almagro probably provide better all-round lessons for a club hack than someone like Sampras because they lack the amount of extras and the slight timing quirk that Systematic Anomaly mentions above - they are straight-forward motions which are both reliable and not overly height or body-type dependent (like Roddick or Isner's serves for example). A player of almost any height or build could do well with a reliable Federer-esque serve for example.
I'd say, for someone starting out, not having a fluid 'throwing' motion (to be clear I'm referring to the swing, not the ball toss) is the single biggest factor which limits a person's serve potential. So, get onto that aspect really early on and look at who has a really nice throwing motion like Federer, Sampras, Almagro etc and getting that part sorted will be a great accompaniment to the other advice you will no doubt get in this thread. Hopefully CharlieFederer posts as he is really astute on matters relating to the serve.
Also, you basically don't pronate on your serve which adds a significant biomechanical and swing path gap between motions like Sampras/Federer etc.
This doesn't at all mean you can't offer good advice to others - most coaches can't serve all that well themselves and some not at all - but self-awareness and the ability to see what is actually happening goes a long way in working out what to work on. That is one of the inherent difficulties of learning tennis - those that need to improve the most usually start with the lowest ability to self assess so take ages to make changes for the good.
The hold/rock is derived from my observation of Rafter (I had a phase where I tried to emulate Rafter's motion, but holy crap, it damn near destroyed my shoulder). I kept the concept, but just toned it down. Instead of holding it for a period of time like Rafter, I just let it drop and let it "rock" into my motion. It felt more simple to me. The "lock n' loaded", "cocking" (or whatever you want to call it) right before Sampras goes into his motion was just too much for me.
Next time I'll include the complete timeline for the progression of my serve.
There's no shame in being inspired by a player a lot - not sure why you seem to want to not give Federer credit. Hallmarks of him can be seen in how you prepare (not the hitting part) for your serve, hit both your forehand and backhands and even in how you dress (the white-under-black sock with the US Open V8s was clearly your thing)
I don't like being compared to the pros because I find it to be disrespectful to them. I don't even come close to what they can produce on the court.
Secondly, the mention of me copying a pro takes away my own efforts in developing my strokes.
Also, Mr. Federer wasn't really on tv that much when I was developing my strokes in the late 90s/early 00s. I'm not denying the similarities as I have heard them from other people. I'm just saying it was through my own development and efforts.
White/black socks, ok that one I did copy. Because I thought it looked good. :)
the video
I appreciate your guys' help. Could you guys post the link to the video you are talking about? Maybe I can learn a little from that as well. Thanks.
I doubt Federer would ever have any issue ever with anyone, Dimitrov or the average club player, basing and entire game on him. It's more of a compliment than the opposite - even if it doesn't work very well.
I'm partial to copying Goran Ivanisevic's serve or perhaps Almagro's. You likely will keep growing so I don't think height is a major factor. In any case, you can simply add more topspin if you find it difficult to hit flat.
I'm not as big of a fan of Sampras's serve as a model for the average person because he was quite athletic and I don't think his extreme left toss and leaping ability can be easily duplicated by most players.
I agree with Bobby. I take lessons, but I find that taking screen shots of slow motion videos of the pros' shots and then coming up with a document that talks about the things they do that make their shot effective and then copying them can make much more of a difference than just taking lessons, where you basically do the same drills everyday. Watching videos has greatly improved my ground strokes over the past few months. I'm able to get a wrist snap without hurting it, and its all due to the internet. My shots don't look exactly like the people I copy (no one's does), but there nothing wrong in copying from the best of the best. Which is what this thread was all about. Now stop arguing and bury the hatchet.
Study the shoulder and beware especially of impingement issues. The information in this video describes the shoulder and especially impingement risk during serving. There are light shoulder conditioning exercises such as the Thrower's 10 that strengthen the muscles and help the range of motion.
Research the most basic service motion which is the same for any height. Racket head speed is not mostly produced by "forearm pronation" but internal shoulder rotation.
Raonic has an interesting and very strong serve.
Sampras video
I find myself going back to the Murray Serve pretty often for reference.
Some good serves to copy, with what to look at:
Sampras - Technically copy the very controlled consistent motion, with plenty of back and leg power. Tactically copy the way he keeps his cool on the first and second serves - both always are hit with decent power (not excessive amounts), a lot of kick, and good placement.
Nadal - Technically you want to copy the way he gets exceptional consistency with a hard to attack shot by focusing on spin instead of power. Tactically you want to copy his high first serve percent, the way he moves the opponent around the box and the way he keeps them guessing with spin.
Roddick - Technically you want to copy the very simple takeback and toss, which prevents errors, and the huge coiling he achieved with a lot of knee bend/racquet drop/shoulder turn/back bend, which let him generate a lot of power without having to hit flat. Tactically copy the way he would rarely hit his biggest/flattest 145+mph first serve, instead favouring a more consistent 130mph spin serve. In other words: serve as big as you can without losing spin or consistency.
Isner/Karlovic/Janowicz: Technically -be tall-. Also, these players use a combination of heavy spin and high/forward contact points to be able to hit extreme angles, so hit the ball with spin at as high a point as you can consistently manage, while moving forward into the court to get open up angles. Tactically, lots of variation - sidespin, topspin, torpedo spin, placement, and power can all be changed - don't let them get comfortable with your serve.
Always hit big flat serves trying to be Roddick/Karlovic, as the big flat serve is inconsistent and easy for your opponent to predict.
Wimp out on serves, first serves should always be an attempt to get you in a favourable position, second serves must not be easy to attack - so really kick it!
Try to perfectly copy a pro technique, as you are different to them in terms of your body and training, instead you should take inspiration from what they do well and copy the general idea.
Two of the most beautiful motions ever in my opinion. The movement on Rafter's serves was unreal, he was stupid fast!
