Anthrax's Scott Ian Spins Tales From the Thrash Side
Like many men currently in their mid-to-late forties, Anthrax co-founder/rhythm guitarist Scott Ian was a huge, practically obsessive Kiss fan growing up.
Photo by Clay Patrick McBride/Da Capo Press He's the man who was caught in a mosh: Scott Ian today
"My Kiss window was about '75-'78, when I was 11 to 14 years old," Ian says. "The older kids all hated Kiss because they thought it was only about the costumes and makeup and effects. But I heard and loved 'Rock and Roll All Nite' before I ever saw the band!
"And as someone who was into rock and horror movies and comic books, now I had all that wrapped up into one package," he continues. "And I loved the music."

Final Score: Cleveland 94, Memphis 79
Cleveland, OH (Sports Network) - Daniel Gibson scored 19 points off the bench, Maurice Williams added 18 and six assists and Cleveland cruised to a 94-79 victory over Memphis even with a quiet night from LeBron James.
James scored just 15 points with eight assists and five rebounds, taking only 10 shots, while Tarence Kinsey tallied 11 points and J.J. Hickson added 10 points and nine rebounds. The Cavaliers have won five straight overall and seven in a row over Memphis.
"We just have guys step up night in and night out. Whenever a guy goes down or someone's having an off night, we've got to get production somewhere else. Those guys were kind of out of the rotation last game, but tonight T.K. started and J.J. played some big minutes," Cavs head coach Mike Brown said of his role players.
Hakim Warrick and Rudy Gay led four players in double figures with 13 points apiece, Mike Conley notched 12 points and seven assists, while Darrell Arthur collected 12 points as well.
"I'm not down as much because of the loss by 20 points," said Conley. "I think the way we played and (that) we lost by 20 points is not acceptable for us."
The struggling Grizzlies have dropped five in a row.
The Cavaliers were the aggressors from the outset. A 7-2 burst to end the session opened up a 27-16 advantage, as Wally Szczerbiak's layup and a pair of James free throws capped the period.
Gibson went on a personal seven-point spurt to begin the second quarter, ending a 14-2 stretch that spanned both quarters. A pair of buckets in the lane and a three-pointer put the margin at 34-16. The edge grew to 20 points at 46-26 on James' layup just over halfway through the stanza.
The lead stood at 58-36 after 24 minutes of game action. Cleveland maintained its comfortable advantage, 76-56, after three quarters, and the edge grew to 86-63 after a Williams trey and a Gibson jumper during the early stages of the fourth quarter.
Cleveland cruised to victory from there.
Game Notes
The Cavaliers shot 43.1 percent, but lived on the charity stripe (24-of-29) compared to just 11 free throw attempts for the Grizzlies. Memphis made 42 percent of its shots...The Grizzlies have lost five straight in Cleveland.

An attorney by trade, Armstrong currently sits on the boards of the Virginia Museum of Transportation, Norfolk and Western Historical Society, and the Martinsville/Henry County Chamber of Commerce.[1]
Issue positions
On Armstrong's official website he lists four main issues:[2]
- Economic Development - We must have "pro-active and forward thinking policy. We must also ensure that our citizens have ample economic opportunity to help them provide for their families."
- Education - "Education is an important tool to help reach a better future."
- Health & Wellness - "focusing on proactive planning for issues like traffic and infrastructure."
- Transportation - "New roads are not enough. This challenge requires us to "think outside the box" and look at both long-term and short-term solutions. It is time for more than talk and increased VDOT budgets."
Committee assignments
2010-2012 committees:
- Courts of Justice
- Criminal Law Subcommittee
- Rules
- Standards of Conduct Subcommittee
- Ethics (Special) Subcommittee
- Finance
- Subcommittee #2
Sponsored legislation
- HB 1902 Admissions tax; adds Carroll County to list of localities that may impose at events.
- HB 1904 Virginia Child Protection Accountability System; established.
- HB 1908 Assault and battery of family/household member; court to order person to obtain certain services.[3]
Armstrong briefly considered making a bid for Virginia Lieutenant Governor in the 2013 elections, but announced in in late 2012 that he had decided against entering the 2013 race to succeed Republican incumbent Lt. Gov Bill Bolling. After he removed himself from the ring, Armstrong formally endorsed fellow Democrats Terry McAuliffe for governor and Mark Herring for attorney general.[4]
Armstrong ran for election to the District 9 seat of the Virginia State Senate. He was uncontested in the August 23 primary and was defeated by incumbent Charles Poindexter (R) in the November 8 general election.[5]

2011 Redistricting
Due to redistricting, Armstrong's residence was switched from district 10 to district 16. The new district would bracket Armstrong against Republican incumbent Donald Merricks, a popular legislator whom Armstrong likes personally. In response to the change, Armstrong decided to move to Bassett, which lies within the newly drawn District 9 and against Republican incumbent Charles Poindexter. 40% of the newly drawn District 9 is composed of areas Armstrong previously represented in District 10.[6]
Race heats up
Armstrong has long been a verbal opponent of the Republican majority of the Virginia House. Many, including Armstrong, believe that the elimination of Armstrong's old district was an attempt to get rid of him. He has stated "This race has never been about electing Charles Poindexter. It's been about getting rid of Ward Armstrong." Republicans deny these claims. Republican leaders have since contributed $615,000 to Poindexter's campaign. This over three times the average $200,000 being spent on similar house raises. Armstrong has raised nearly a million dollars on his own.[7]
In 2009, Armstrong was re-elected to the Virginia House of Delegates. He defeated C. Edward Creed, II in the General Election. [8]

My favourite team is Spain. I have followed them closely for a long time. I like their style of playing, game-plans and formations. It is a treat to watch them. However, my favourite footballer is Lionel Messi and its wonderful that he plays for my favourite club — Barcelona.
To be honest, I wanted to become a footballer when I was young. I studied in Bombay Scottish, and I also represented my school in football tournaments. I have played in the national level too.
But when I was 13, my father decided I should switch to cricket as football did not have future in India. I stuck to cricket but I believe I am a pretty good footballer.
Every World Cup has its own moments. The one which is still fresh in my mind is the one in 2002. Ronaldo was exceptional for Brazil. I still remember all the goals he shot. Brazil had a strong team that year and they are the reason I got hooked to the sport.
Even though Spain was phenomenal in the last two World Cups, you cannot write off Brazil. They are the team to watch out for.
I wish I could visit a stadium and watch one of the matches. I had tried going for one of the English Premier League matches when I was in the UK but it did not work out.
Hopefully, I will be able to watch a few of them in future.
This World Cup, a Spain-Brazil final would be ultimate for me.

Commissioners trash proposal to dump waste panel
After helping to craft the city's 13-year contract with Waste Management in 2010, the commission has had little to do, Feller said. Waste Management has been Oceanside's trash hauler for more than two decades.
"I just feel that they have done their job," Feller said.
Scott said the commission said the commission does more than just oversee the waste contract.
"We have increased service and recycling throughout the City," she said. "We have supported and guided the award-winning Green Waste program for years. We help sponsor the week long Green Fair every year and it's the biggest Earth Day fair in North County."
The special meeting of the Integrated Waste Commission is set for Sept. 17 at 4 p.m.

Effects Of Population Growth To Be Studied
A controversial new study, commissioned by the Royal Society of the United Kingdom, will analyze how population growth will impact sustainable development and the economy, according to a statement release by the organization on Monday.
"The Royal Society has decided that it is time for a comprehensive review of the science, looking at the extent to which population will be a significant variable in rates of progress towards sustainable economic and social development over the next thirty years and beyond," the Royal Society said in their press release.
The study, entitled "People and the planet: the role of global population in sustainable development," will be headed up by Nobel laureate Sir John Sulston, who previously worked on the Human Genome Project. It will be launched on World Population Day during a special event, which will be held at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and will conclude in 2012.
"As the world's population approaches seven billion, the Royal Society has chosen to explore the complex and contentious issue of population," Sulston said on Monday. "We will be examining the extent to which population is a significant factor in the momentous international challenge of securing global sustainable development, considering not just the scientific elements, but encompassing the wider issues including culture, gender, economics and law."
"The Royal Society has brought together a working group of immense expertise, but also markedly different interests, to ensure that the end report will be comprehensive and cross-disciplinary and bring understanding of population issues to the cutting edge," he added.
The report states that the worldwide population was just 2 billion in 1930. In 1993, it grew to 5.5 billion, and currently it is an estimated 6.8 billion. According to projections, the population will grow to 7 billion by 2012 and 9 billion by 2050.
Sulston and his colleagues will try to study to find out what implications the growing population would have on various aspects of society, including the environment and the economy.
"This is a topic that has gone to and fro in the last few decades, and appears to be moving back up the political agenda now," Sulston told BBC News on Monday. "So it seems a good moment for the Royal Society to launch a study that looks objectively at the scientific basis for changes in population, for the different regional and cultural factors that may affect that, and at the effects that population changes will have on our future in term of sustainable development."
Many scientists have blamed the growth of the human population as a contributing factor in several environmental conditions, including climate change, deforestation, and loss of biodiversity, according to BBC News. Thus, Sulston will head a panel of environmental, agricultural, economic, law, and theological experts from the U.S., the U.K., China, and several other countries to study these issues.
According to what Jonathon Porritt, the founder of Forum for the Future and a member of the Royal Society panel, told the BBC, the upcoming study can "shed some light on the different interpretations that people draw from the underlying trends" and could lead to increased support for family planning initiatives in developing countries.
Sulston was born on March 27, 1942 and studied at the University of Cambridge, the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. In 1986, he was elected to the Royal Society and was presented with the W. Alden Spencer Award. Since 1992, he has been serving as the Director of the Sanger Centre in Cambridge, and during that time, he has been awarded the Darwin Medal of the Royal Society, the Rosenstiel Award, the Pfizer Prize for Innovative Science, the George W Beadle Medal, the Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins Medal, the Edinburgh Medal, and the Prince of Asturias Award.
The Royal Society was founded 350 years ago, and according to the group's website, it is "the world's oldest scientific academy in continuous existence"¦ The backbone of the Society is its Fellowship of the most eminent scientists of the day, elected by peer review for life and entitled to use FRS after their name. There are currently more than 60 Nobel Laureates amongst the Society's approximately 1400 Fellows and Foreign Members."
"Throughout its history, the Society has promoted excellence in science through its Fellowship and Foreign Membership, which has included Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, Ernest Rutherford, Albert Einstein, Dorothy Hodgkin, Francis Crick, James Watson and Stephen Hawking," the Royal Society's official website also says. "The Society is independent of government, as it has been throughout its existence, by virtue of its Royal Charters."

Statement of Undersecretary Rico E. Puno
As undersecretary for peace and order in the DILG, I am entrusted with duties and responsibilities that involve strict confidence, security and protocol. Violating the confidential nature of my duties may expose people to danger or jeopardize critical operations. Hence, I am duty-bound to act with restraint and circumspection, even when subjected to personal attacks in the mass media. This is why I have opted not to react to the speculative accusations that have been hurled against me by some media organizations.
This is the chronology of events that transpired on Aug. 18 and 19, 2012, as I followed the orders of the President:
Saturday, August 18
2045 H (8:45 p.m.) (Mactan Cebu International Airport)
Boarded the Cebu Pacific flight to Manila. When I was about to board, the President called and instructed me to secure the offices of Secretary Robredo. I relayed the instructions to Supt. Oliver Tanseco, deputy chief of the Office of Internal Security in Secretary Robredo's office.
2230 H (10:30 p.m.) (Naia Terminal 3)
Arrived in Manila
2330 H (11:30 pm) PNP Director-General's Quarters, Camp Crame "White House"
Proceeded to the PNP Director General's Quarters. Among those present there were Usec. Austere Panadero, PNP Director General Nicanor Bartolome, Ms Joan de la Cruz, a member of Secretary Robredo's staff and S/Supt. Tanseco.
The President called again and I reported the offices have been secured.
Sunday, August 19
0900 H (9:00 a.m.)
Supervised sealing of Secretary Robredo's Office at DILG Quezon City accompanied by the following: S/Supt. Joel Pagdilao, Supt. Oliver Tanseco, Chief Insp. Apollo Togonon and other security officers of Secretary Robredo.
0930 H (9:30 a.m.)
Informed by Superintendent Tanseco that there were documents inside the residence/condominium of the Secretary.
1000 H (10:00 a.m.)
Led team to secure Secretary Robredo's condominium unit; stayed in condominium lobby; instructed team to sign condominium log book to document our presence; left condominium after about 20 minutes.
1030 H (10:30 a.m.)
Arrived at Camp Crame and supervised sealing of Secretary Robredo's office; left Camp Crame after about 15 minutes.
1130 H (11:30 a.m.)
Arrived at National Police Commission (Napolcom) building in Makati City; supervised sealing of Secretary Robredo's office; left after about 20 minutes.
1500 H (3:30 p.m.)
Accompanied secretary of justice and Presidential Security Group team that performed inspection, sealing and securing of Secretary Robredo's: a) DILG office; b) condominium unit; c) Camp Crame office; and d) Napolcom office. Entire operations were completed at around 7 p.m.
When the President asked me to serve in the DILG, he emphasized that we needed to strengthen the institution so that our uniformed personnel will become truly servants and protectors of our people. For the past two years, I have carried out specific assignments in accordance with the President's mandate.
We have introduced reforms to ensure full transparency of procurement and bidding processes. We have streamlined these processes to achieve the President's objective of getting "the biggest bang for the buck" in providing basic equipment to enable our uniformed personnel to perform their tasks effectively.
I believe that I have carried out my assigned duties to the best of my ability.
Moving forward, I have resigned as DILG Undersecretary to support the President's decision to give a free hand to the incoming Secretary in forming a new team.
I wish to thank President Aquino for his trust and confidence in giving me the opportunity to serve our country and people.

Salo believes that Lotus needs an experience driver for the final two races.
Giedo van der Garde and Charles Pic, both heavily sponsored, were new to the team this season.
Caterham has admitted it has missed Kovalainen's experienced input this year.
Heikki Kovalainen is looking forward to Caterham decision.
Tony Fernandes dispels a rumour that stated Giedo van der Garde would not be considered for 2014 season.
"This is the state of Formula One right now where unfortunately sometimes the budget plays a large part in your decision making." - Tony Fernandes
Cyril Abiteboul told that Caterham team are trying to find new sponsors, new people, so it's too early to talk about the impact that their final position in the championship will have on our decision.
It is suggested Heikki Kovalainen, 31, might instead follow the likes of Sebastien Buemi, Nick Heidfeld, Bruno Senna and Kamui Kobayashi into Le Mans-style sports cars.
Caterham is fielding him again because engineers "want my opinion" about the latest upgrades" said Heikki Kovalainen
Kovalainen will be back at the wheel on Friday at Spa-Francorchamps, driving Charles Pic's car.
Cyril Abiteboul admitted the sponsored Dutchman "has some challenges" in using this year's Pirelli tyres.
Caterham is now pushing ahead with development of next year's car.
Kovalainen thinks that this sort of rumour is quite common in Formula One, when someone has a bad race
Dutchman recently dismissed rumours former Caterham racer Kovalainen was set to replace him later in 2013.
Among the attendees were Bianchi, Chilton, Rossi, Kovalainen, Valsecchi, Gene, Button, Hamilton, Buemi, Rosberg and Perez.
Mika Salo thinks that Heikki's situation with Caterham right now is at an exciting time
Giedo van der Garde is confident he will not loose his seat as he has a watertight contract for the rest of this season.
Kovalainen appeared in the paddock at Silverstone this weekend just as it was in Bahrain and Barcelona
Abiteboul is backing van der Garde, who will drop five places on the Silverstone grid after his crash with Webber in Canada, and Frenchman Pic.
Extending Kovalainen's driver duties is on the cards now
Heikki Kovalainen says 'it's no surprise the team has not gone so well, when you're putting an old car against the new ones'
Heikki Kovalainen drove at Magny Cours for a 'filming day', but the CT03 with a new 'vanity panel'.
Heikki Kovalainen's plan at the moment is to drive Fridays and help the team
"Definitely, it proves that in formula one you should never burn the bridges behind you" - Mika Salo

On May 30, California's First District Court of Appeals upheld a Superior Court ruling that found the state's lethal injection protocol invalid because the California Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation failed to comply with the requirements of the Administrative Procedures Act. A spokesman for the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said that no decision has been made on whether the ruling will be appealed to the California Supreme Court or if the department will propose a new lethal injection method. California has not had an execution since 2006, partly because questions related to the method of execution and the overall fairness of the system. It has the largest death row in the country, with more than 700 inmates facing execution. The costs of the death penalty are also likely to play a prominent role in its future in the state. Natasha Minsker, who led efforts to repeal California's death penalty in 2012, said, "Any effort to resume executions will cost hundreds of thousands of public dollars and take years, with an extremely limited chance of success."
The British manufacturer Hikma Pharmaceuticals recently announced new rules to restrict the supply of its products for unintended uses, such as carrying out executions in the United States. Earlier this year, Reprieve, a legal advocacy organization based in London, found that a U.S. subsidiary of Hikma sold 100 grams of phenobarbital to the Arkansas Department of Corrections. Arkansas decided to use the new, untested drug in their lethal injection process when they were unable to secure supplies of the drugs they normally use. A spokesman for Hikma Pharmaceuticals said the order had been made as part of the regular request for drugs for prison hospital services and did not raise any red flags because the drug had never been used in executions before. Arkansas has been contacted by the drug company and told that the subsidiary was closing the account. The state's current supply of phenobarbital is sufficient to carry out eight executions and will expire in October 2015. The state will need to seek alternative sources or different drugs when their current supply becomes unavailable. Other drug companies have put similar restrictions on the use of their drugs in executions.
The Arkansas Department of Corrections recently announced it will use a new drug, phenobarbital, for lethal injections. Phenobarbital is used to treat seizures but has never been used for executions in the U.S. Some experts are concerned that using drugs that are untested for this purpose could result in inhumane treatment. David Lubarsky, who chairs the anesthesiology department at the University of Miami's medical school, said, "People should not be using inmates as an experiment. And that is basically what this is. It's basically experimenting." Up until a few years ago, all states carrying out lethal injections used sodium thiopental as the first of three drugs in their protocol. States were forced to seek alternative drugs when the manufacturer stopped making sodium thiopental in response to objections about its use in executions. Oklahoma was the first state to employ pentobarbital, a sedative commonly used by veterinarians to euthanize animals, but that drug is now in short supply for executions. Last year, Missouri announced plans to use propofol for lethal injections, though the manufacturer of that drug has also restricted its sale. Arkansas also plans to use the drug lorazepam prior to the execution as a sedative. However, Jon Groner, a surgery professor at the Ohio State University College of Medicine, said lorazepam makes some people excitable, instead of relaxed.
According to a new report from Amnesty International, the international trend away from the death penalty generally continued in 2012. The number of countries in which death sentences were imposed fell from 63 to 58. The number of countries that have completely abolished the death penalty stood at 97. Ten years ago, this figure stood at 80. In total, 140 countries worldwide have ended the death penalty in law or in practice. However, 3 countries--India, Pakistan, and the Gambia--returned to carrying out executions in 2012 after many years of having none. The U.S. carried out the same number of executions in 2012 as in 2011, but in fewer states. There were 43 executions across nine states. The five countries that carried out the most executions in 2012 were China, Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and the U.S. Amnesty International Secretary General Salil Shetty said, "In many parts of the world, executions are becoming a thing of the past. Only one in 10 countries in the world carries out executions. Their leaders should ask themselves why they are still applying a cruel and inhumane punishment that the rest of the world is leaving behind."
Controversies surrounding lethal injections continue in many parts of the country. In Georgia, the legislature passed a bill to classify the names of those involved in executions as "state secrets." The bill requires the identity of any entity that "manufactures, supplies, compounds or prescribes" lethal injection drugs to be kept secret. In Arkansas, a state judge ruled that death row inmates cannot use the state's Freedom of Information Act to obtain information about the source, history, or quality of the drugs the state will use during execution. An attorney for the inmates claimed they should have a right to the information because of problems with drugs obtained in the past. On March 25, a federal appeals court heard arguments in a case involving death row inmates from across the country arguing that the Food and Drug Administration acted inappropriately in 2010 when it allowed some states to import lethal injection drugs from foreign sources. Eric Shumsky, an attorney representing the inmates, said, "This case is … about ensuring that illegal drugs are not used in carrying out otherwise legal executions." Also recently, the Israel-based drug company Teva announced that it would resume manufacturing the sedative propofol, but would not allow its use in executions. Missouri has proposed using propofol for its executions.
On February 7, federal District Court Judge James Brady stayed the execution of Christopher Sepulvado in Louisiana because the state failed to provide details about its new execution protocol. "Sepulvado has been trying to determine what the protocol is for years," Judge Brady wrote, "and the State will not provide this information. The intransigence of the State Defendants in failing to produce the protocol requires the Court to issue this order." Sepulvado was scheduled to be executed on Feb. 13, the first non-consensual execution in the state in over 10 years. The judge said, "There is no way that [Sepulvado] could adequately, meaningfully bring an Eighth Amendment challenge if he does not know how the protocol operates." Louisiana had previously used a 3-drug protocol, but just recently said it planned to use 1 drug, pentobarbital. However, it offered no details about how the drug was purchased, what training was provided to prison staff, or who would carry out the execution. The state later indicated it obtained the drug from Lundbeck, Inc.
Lawyers for Kimberly McCarthy, who is to be executed on January 29, have petitioned Texas Governor Rick Perry for a 30-day reprieve because of evidence of racial bias in the county in which she was tried. The District Attorney for Dallas County, Craig Watkins, has already called for passage of a Racial Justice Act to address the bias he has found. Attorneys for McCarthy cited several studies pointing to racial disparity in the application of the death penalty: Dallas County is about 22% black, yet 42% of those executed or awaiting execution from the County are black. Ms. McCarthy is black and her victim was white, like 68% of the victims in the County's cases. Her attorneys wrote, "These statistics and their import are reflected in the case of Kimberly McCarthy, an African-American woman, who was sentenced to death for the murder of an elderly white woman." Evidence also exists of bias in jury selection, both historically and in her case: "Of the thirteen jurors seated [in McCarthy's case], all were white except one." Although the governor cannot grant clemency to McCarthy because the Pardons Board voted against her, he can issue a 30-day reprieve for further investigation. UPDATE: State District Judge Larry Mitchell stayed McCarthy's execution. Her new execution date is April 3, 2013.
Robert Gleason is scheduled to be the first person executed in the U.S. in 2013 on the night of January 16 in Virginia. At his trial, he told the court he wanted the death penalty and has waived all his appeals since his conviction. He has chosen to be executed by electrocution. Gleason's lawyers maintain he is severely mentally ill and his mental capacity has deteriorated during his time on death row. He suffers from extreme paranoia, delusional thinking, severe anxiety and other mental afflictions. Attorney Jon Sheldon stated that Gleason's "mental illness is causing him to be suicidal, and he is enlisting the government's help to end his life." His life was described as "profoundly disturbed and traumatic," marked by abuse as a child, with depression and other mental health problems as an adult. Virginia had no executions and no death sentences in 2012.

No longer willing to accept the visible signs of aging, an increasing number of women and men are seeking treatments to help them look as vibrant as they feel.
Thanks to aesthetic medicine, millions of people around the world can now look and feel younger for longer. A fast-growing field, aesthetic medicine is the art of rejuvenating skin and enhancing facial beauty through safe, physician-administered treatments based on breakthrough science.
Most popular aesthetic treatments are fillers and Botulinum toxins. These are well-tolerated, injectable treatments that help smooth the appearance of wrinkles or restore volume deficits creating a beautiful, more youthful appearance.
Botulinum toxins are purified substances that relax the facial muscles and stop them from contracting to stop lines forming and smooth the skin. The degree of muscle contraction impairment can be varied to soften the lines while maintaining the ability to elevate your eyebrows.
Botulinum toxin Type A is very well tolerated and safe for long term use.
Fillers plump up wrinkles by replacing lost volume in the skin creating a more youthful appearance. There are many types of wrinkle fillers; some of them are based on hyaluronic acid or collagens which are known for their safety and lifting capacity.
To create natural-looking, individual results, your physician may recommend different options of injections based on the severity of your wrinkles.
Physicians typically use Botulinum toxins to treat frownlines, wrinkles around the eyes or drooping eyebrows. Fillers are often used to make lips look fuller, and to treat smile and "marionette lines," which are those lines that extend down the chin from the corners of the mouth.

A couple of generations ago, wisenheimers like Eyedea and Abilities might have been vaudeville hustlers or burlesque comedians. Today they make overambitious art for the lucrative "underground." On For Persons With DJ Abilities, Abilities once again shows himself to be a trip-hopper at heart--an atmosphere junkie indifferent to polyrhythms. Still, his bohemian-space-odyssey bongo rolls do give way to a unique, birdlike peep-scratching. And Eyedea occasionally manages to turn his philosophical epiphanies into musical ones. "A Murder of Memories" is an affecting veteran's tale told over two piano notes in an echo chamber, and the simplicity of Abilities's mournful melodeon wheeze mirrors Eyedea's uncluttered delivery.
Still, overthinking is part of Eyedea's charm. "Powdered Water Too" may be hip hop's first-ever attempt to make radical epistemology funky: "We don't know the meal," he raps. "We only know the menu that our brain tells us is real." And "The Dive" may be the perfect self-help-while-you-sleep cassette for any character who thinks life might have written him into the wrong movie. "The best thing I ever did was let go," Eyedea raps, reassuringly. If he sounds lost in space now, wait until he reaches his 20s.

Box Score
STORRS, Conn. – The University of Connecticut women's soccer team required an extra 4:07 of playing time to defeat Cincinnati at Morrone Stadium on Thursday evening. Stephanie Ribeiro (Pawtucket, R.I.) scored her third goal in as many games to give the hosts a dramatic 1-0 victory in the first period of overtime. Tonight's result propels UConn to ten wins on the season (10-6) and improves the Huskies' American Athletic Conference record to 4-2. Cincinnati falls to 7-9-1 overall and drops to 3-3-1 in the American.
The two teams traded possessions in a relatively back-and-forth first half of play. Neither team was able to sustain possessions long in their respective offensive ends. Midway through the first stanza UConn began to control the pace of play and threatened to jump on the board. Rachel Hill (Somersworth, N.H.) played a perfectly placed ball to teammate Jennifer Skogerboe (Leesburg, Va.) at the top of the box. Skogerboe carried the ball in about eight yards and ripped a shot that Cincinnati goalkeeper Natalie Smith made a good diving save to turn aside. Smith stood tall in the first half to keep the game scoreless, earning four saves at the intermission.
Not to be denied, Connecticut poured on the pressure in the second half, outshooting the Bearcats 15-2 in the latter 45 minutes. Despite the UConn dominance, Cincinnati would open the second half with one of the better scoring opportunities of the game up until that point. Danielle Rotheram found herself in tight to the cage and accepted a pass that she spun and fired on goal from seven yards out. Emily Armstrong (Collegeville, Pa.), given little time to react on the shot, made a fantastic diving stop to keep the Bearcats at bay.
The Huskies' defense also played a role in the action, jumping into the rush to contribute several close chances. Hinds and Gabrielle Charno (Seaford, N.Y) let loose two blistering shots labeled for the top corners that Smith stymied. With time winding down in the game, UConn maintained the same level of offensive intensity but could not solve a red hot Smith. Still scoreless at the conclusion of 90 minutes, the Huskies required four more minutes for Ribeiro to seal the deal. The sophomore stepped up and released a shot 22 yards out on the right side of the field that sailed over Smith's left shoulder and into the side netting of the cage to win the game for Connecticut.
Natalie Smith made several exceptional stops in the loss, turning aside 11 UConn shots in the contest. Armstrong finished with two key saves on her end of the field to earn her sixth shutout of the season. The Huskies finished with a 22-5 advantage in shots and a 10-4 advantage in corner kicks.
Connecticut will don their home uniforms for one last regular season game at Morrone Stadium on Sunday at 12pm. The Huskies face top conference contender Louisville in an important league matchup. The Senior Day game will recognize Jennifer Skogerboe and Devin Prendergast for their contributions to the squad in a brief pre-game ceremony.

ACA website problems are signs of things to come
Letters to the editor for Oct. 24, 2013: Obamacare; Nancy Pelosi; public workers; pensions
This demonstrates the foolish lack of consideration for facts, as well as cooperation and compromise by the Democrat Party as a whole even when it causes pain and disruption to the very people they agreed to serve.
What a waste. What a shame.

Pelosi should be removed from office
When I saw Rep. Nancy Pelosi giving a tour of the war memorial to illegal aliens and their ilk while supporting the Obama agenda, I had flashbacks to Vietnam and another Jane Fonda. Of course all Fonda did was travel to Hanoi and pose on an antiaircraft gun and never show support or concern for our PQWs held as prisoners of war there.
I am left to wonder just what kind of electorate is in her district. Are they that far out of touch that they just automatically pull the lever? I think they need to re-evaluate their political intelligence and citizenship perspective. Pelosi should be recalled. If Filner's recall was justifiable, this callous act is far beyond it.
Tim Wardrip
Anything positive about public workers?
Once again, the U-T attacks workers in the public sector. In the editorial Oct. 19 on the Bay Area Rapid Transit strike, it states that "Californians barely paid attention to the generous compensation given to many public employees."
Why does the U-T dislike people who have chosen to work for the public sector? Every time Caltrans workers, prison workers, city workers, etc. get a raise, you always have something negative to say.
Why don't you ever have anything positive to say about most public sector workers?

Not grasping effects of pension liabilities
Thank you for continuing to write about the unfunded pension funds.
I am 66 and for years have tried to understand my liberal friends and the long-term consequences of their governmental spending policies.
I have concluded they have an economic vision of maybe one or two fiscal years and are incapable of understanding the long-term consequences of simple math let alone basic accounting and economics.

What is 'ridiculous' with Redskins name?
I find quite a bit of irony in a readers' recent letter decrying the notion of changing of changing the name of the Washington Redskins's football team.
My the reader's passion for his culture (football) is so strong he decries as "ridiculous" a move to change a name that has been a tradition for 80 years. Perhaps those wishing to change the name think that having a team name that mocks and degrades an entire people's heritage and that is being exploited by the people of a culture that systemically attempted to destroy said culture's existence is even more ridiculous.

Supreme rebuff: Crowe case takes another cruel turn
Yes, it's possible the Crowe family — or more probably, the introverted Michael — might hate to face a repeat of a trial in which the defense will almost certainly raise the finger of suspicion and point it at the adolescent boy, now a man in his late 20s.
Even though a judge has ruled Michael factually innocent, theoretically erasing any public stain, there are still those who mutter that, despite the discovery of Stephanie's blood on Tuite's shirt and the drifter's history of uncanny stealth, "The boys did it."
"Michael suffered horribly" during the 2004 Tuite trial, Silverman told me. "He was grilled, out there on display."
At the end of this 14-year-old day, the only defensible reason to let Tuite go free without another trial is the clear desire of the Crowe family to be left alone.

Stereotaxis Announces CE Mark and First Human Case for Vdrive(TM)
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Stereotaxis, Inc. (Nasdaq: STXS) announces the first successful cardiac ablation procedure with the Vdrive(TM) robotic navigation system as the company received CE Mark for this latest innovation.
In the first procedure with the Vdrive system, Tamas Szili-Torok, MD, Ph.D., from the Department of Clinical Electrophysiology at the Erasmus Medical Center in The Netherlands, successfully treated atrial fibrillation in a patient with known difficult heart anatomy. Dr. Szili-Torok was able to complete the entire case without having to manually adjust the circular mapping catheter.
"This first use of the Vdrive robotic navigation system exceeded my expectations," said Dr. Szili-Torok. "The robotic navigation of the circular mapping catheter was intuitive and allowed me to make multiple small precise adjustments from the control room to efficiently treat my patient's atrial fibrillation."
Stereotaxis' Vdrive system is a robotic navigation technology that compliments the Stereotaxis Remote Magnetic Navigation System. Designed to manipulate accessory devices such as variable loop catheters, steerable sheaths, and ultrasound catheters, Vdrive combines magnetic navigation with the Odyssey information management system to bring precise control during catheter-based electrophysiology procedures.
"The Vdrive system is an extension of the magnetic navigation platform capabilities," said Michael P. Kaminski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Stereotaxis, Inc. "Along with QuickCAS(TM) Catheter Advancement System, the Vdrive system represents an additional component to our expanding disposable product portfolio designed to bring compelling efficiency to the Electrophysiology lab."
The Vdrive system is commercially available in the European Union. The Vdrive system is not currently available for purchase in the U.S. as it is still under 510(k) review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
About Stereotaxis www.stereotaxis.com www.odysseyexperience.com
Stereotaxis designs, manufactures and markets an advanced cardiology instrument control system for use in a hospital's interventional surgical suite to enhance the treatment of coronary artery disease and arrhythmias. The Niobe® Remote Magnetic Navigation System is designed to enable physicians to complete more complex interventional procedures by providing image guided delivery of catheters and guidewires through the blood vessels and chambers of the heart to treatment sites. This is achieved using computer-controlled, externally applied magnetic fields that govern the motion of the working tip of the catheter or guidewire, resulting in improved navigation, shorter procedure time and reduced x-ray exposure.
Stereotaxis' Odyssey(TM) portfolio of products provides an innovative enterprise solution for integrating, recording and networking interventional lab information within hospitals and around the world. Odyssey(TM) Vision integrates data for magnetic and standard interventional labs, enhancing the physician workflow through a consolidated display of multiple systems and eliminating the challenge of interacting simultaneously with many separate diagnostic systems. Odyssey(TM) Enterprise Cinema then captures a complete record of synchronized procedure data that can be viewed live or from a comprehensive archive of cases performed. Odyssey(TM) then enables hospitals to efficiently share live and recorded clinical data anywhere around the world to maximize referrals and promote collaboration.
The core components of the Stereotaxis systems have received regulatory clearance in the U.S., Europe, Canada and elsewhere. For more information, please visit www.stereotaxis.com and www.odysseyexperience.com.

Is President Bush unwittingly rehabilitating Jimmy Carter's reputation?It's hard to say, but the perception of Carter is surely changing. A year or two ago, mentioning the Carter presidency, especially in Jimmy's native Georgia, was certain to evoke derisive guffaws. In recent months, the snickers have subsided. Is it possible that Carter is right about war in the Middle East? Does talk beat bullets every time in an international crisis? Is it really more fun to be loved than hated by our global neighbors? Don't get me wrong. No one I know is forming a Jimmy Carter fan club. The fellows down at the Legion Hall will still tell you that Carter was a girly-guy in the White House. It took forever to free American hostages in Iran. In fact, the Iranians thumbed their noses at the 39th president of the United States. They didn't release the hostages until Ronald Reagan was ready to move into the Oval Office. "President Peanut," as some called Carter, had to beg and beg and beg Egypt's Anwar Sadat and Israel's Menachem Begin to make peace. "Any way you cut it, Carter was really a wimp president," says one Carter critic, and many agree. Carter's immediate successors didn't enhance his presidential reputation. Reagan was a larger-than-life actor. Sure, we lost the lives of 240 military personnel in Lebanon on Reagan's watch, but don't forget this: We rescued a bunch of stranded medical students in the invasion of Grenada. George Bush the elder was a master statesman who made friends everywhere for the United States. King Democrat Bill Clinton was a different sort. You didn't hear any of that "lust in my heart" stuff from him. When it came to lust, Clinton didn't waste time on talk. America's first rock 'n' roll president also ushered in an era of prosperity that the Carter team could only long for. Some historians began to rate Carter among our worst presidents. Kinder writers insisted on referring to him as "our most accomplished former president." Then along came George W. Bush and the Sept. 11 attacks. For a few weeks, Bush's popularity eclipsed even his father's after Desert Storm. When W took us to war in Afghanistan, almost no one objected. After all, Afghanistan offered shelter to those who wanted to destroy us. Next we invaded Iraq to rid the world of Saddam Hussein and the ever-elusive weapons of mass destruction. Now we are bogged down in a murderous civil war in Iraq. More than 2,500 American soldiers have died in combat. Thousands of others have been maimed for life. The Muslim world, incensed at reports of repeated atrocities, has come to despise us as never before. Our most loyal remaining ally, Israel, is locked in a war with Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon. Civilians, many of them children, are dying in the fighting. Bush's popularity sags nationally. Even a few Georgians are beginning to question the administration's record, though most of our congressional delegation remain loyal members of W's amen chorus. So how do Bush's problems help Carter's legacy? For one thing, relatively little American blood was spilled during the Carter years. None of the hostages in Iran lost their lives or were seriously hurt. No American GIs died in combat, though several were killed accidentally in an aborted hostage-rescue attempt. Carter's Camp David accords achieved a lasting peace between Egypt and Israel. If Egypt were arrayed against Israel today, the Middle East would be on its way to total war. In an op-ed piece in the Washington Post last week, Carter warned of the destabilizing effect of delaying peace talks in the Israel-Hezbollah conflict. "Failure to address the issues and leaders involved risks the creation of an arc of even greater instability running from Jerusalem through Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad and Tehran," Carter wrote. Hardly anyone outside Washington picked up the Carter article. Many Israelis believe Carter is pro-Arab. The ex-president does not enjoy wide popularity among American Jews. Carter also has been roundly criticized across the country for opposing Bush's policies. Nevertheless:•While civil war expands in Iraq and Americans continue to be killed and bombs and cannon shells rain down on Israel and Lebanon,•While gas prices soar in the U.S. and illegal aliens swarm across our borders,•While the cost of health care spirals, New Orleans lays in ruins, our education system rots, our trade deficit skyrockets and China and India overtake us,•While all of the above and more are happening, President George W. Bush announces he's going on vacation again. Now tell me that Jimmy Carter doesn't look better by the day. Syndicated columnist Bill Shipp writes on Georgia politics. Write him at P.O.

Today is the start of my last week as an employee of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. I will be leaving after nearly 15 years as EFF's President and Executive Director, having started as a Staff Attorney back in 1992. As I wrap up things here, I've been thinking a lot about where we've been and where we are now, and I thought it would be fun to share some of my reflections in a final blog post.
A federal judge has decisively halted the Mississippi Attorney General's campaign of threatening to prosecute Google for refusing to remove content he finds objectionable. The court ruled in Google's favor a few weeks ago but finally issued its complete order last Friday, March 27. The order is pretty damning, finding that Google presented "significant evidence of bad faith" on the Attorney General's part.
The Government Says It Has a Policy on Disclosing Zero-Days, But Where Are the Documents to Prove It?
Today, EFF filed a second round of comments to the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) on its proposed regulatory rules for digital currencies like Bitcoin. EFF, the Internet Archive, and reddit filed initial joint comments to NYDFS back in October 2014, opposing the first draft of the "BitLicense" proposal. Thousands of concerned EFF members and friends also used our website to send in comments.
Following the terrorist attacks in Paris in January, including the murder of several journalists at the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, we anticipated that the French government would overreact. Sure enough, recent reporting has revealed that France is censoring websites and pushing for broader surveillance powers.
The Electronic Frontier Foundation is pleased with the United Nations Human Rights Council's (UNHRC) decision to adopt a resolution appointing a special rapporteur on the right to privacy.
This decision is a key step forward for the UNHRC; it elevates the right to privacy to the priority level that the Human Rights Council ascribes to most other human rights. Most importantly, it gives the right to privacy the international recognition and protection it deserves.
Special rapporteurs are independent experts appointed by the Human Rights Council who serve in a personal capacity and are mandated to report on human rights. They are not UN staff members and do not receive financial remuneration. The independent status of the mandate-holders is essential for the UN to impartially fulfill its functions.
More than 1,500 Californians over the last two weeks joined EFF in an email campaign to defeat a proposal by an obscure committee within the California Department of Justice that would have compromised the privacy and security of their driver-license photos. As part of its strategic plan, the committee had approved a goal to share driver and mugshot photos with a national law enforcement network and allow police to leverage facial recognition technology against the image database.
The committee listened to your letters.
Promising public access legislation FASTR (Fair Access to Science & Technology Research Act) has been re-introduced by a bipartisan coalition in Congress. Lawmakers now have an important opportunity to strengthen and expand rules that allow taxpayers to freely read articles resulting from research their tax dollars support. EFF continues to encourage legislators to pass this bill as an important step forward—though there are still some measures to improve.
Take action to support FASTR right now.
