Adding prescription drug coverage to Medicare, as Congress is poised to do, is merely more socialism — it will neither help seniors nor is its passage likely to gain their votes.
First, some facts: the GOP-controlled Congress and president are seeking subsidies for one of the richest generations in human history. Seniors are generally more active, lively and prosperous than previous generations. Their progress is marked by rising life expectancy and documented in countless articles about their vacations and whether to refinance their second homes. America

BronchitolTM Receives Fast-Track Status
November 28, 2006
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted fast-track status to BronchitolTM, a potential new drug being tested for treatment of cystic fibrosis lung disease. Fast-track status allows a quicker review of potential therapeutics that are intended to fulfill an unmet medical need and treat a serious or life-threatening condition such as CF.
The Australian pharmaceutical company Pharmaxis, the producer of BronchitolTM, is working closely with the FDA to ensure that the drug will reach the CF community as quickly as possible following the completion of clinical trials.
BronchitolTM is a dry powder formulation of mannitol, a naturally occurring sugar alcohol, that is provided in a hand-held inhaler. Inhaled mannitol has been safely tested in more than 4000 people worldwide. The drug is designed to draw water into the airways, moistening and thinning the sticky mucus found in the lungs of people with CF and making it easier to cough it out. BronchitolTM was shown in Phase 2 clinical trials in Australia and New Zealand to be safe and well-tolerated and significantly improved lung function in volunteers with CF.
A larger, Phase 3 trial of BronchitolTM is underway in volunteers with CF to demonstrate an improvement in lung function and quality of life, and reduced infections and physiotherapy needs. Due to fast-track status, results from these trials are presented to the FDA for review as they become available. A complete submission and request for marketing approval is expected in 2008.

Shortcuts save time. Or, at least in theory, they're supposed to. Maybe you once followed someone's suggestion for a shortcut while driving to a new destination, only to get lost and ended up being late? While shortcuts are typically designed to save us time, energy and/or cost, they don't always end up that way.
I'd like to share a shortcut with you today that will help you navigate efficiently and it comes without any detours. It is available in Microsoft programs such as Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
Called the Quick Access Tool Bar, you may not have even noticed it before. It typically sits above the "ribbon," which makes it hard to see but it can also be moved to just below the ribbon, which is my preference.
Designed to house the options you use most frequently, it typically comes factory set with a few shortcut buttons already included on it. You will want to take a few minutes to customize the Quick Access Tool Bar for your liking so it contains the shortcuts you use most often.
It will help to think about which types of actions you most frequently use. For example, when I'm composing an email and working in Outlook, I use the following shortcut buttons most often:
- Save
- Undo typing
- Underline
- Strikethrough
- Bullets
- Quick Print
Here are three easy steps to follow in customizing the Quick Access Toolbar within each Microsoft program as well as the components of email, calendar, tasks and contacts within Outlook.
1. Click on the down arrow to the right of the Quick Access Tool Bar
2. Scroll down to "More Commands"
3. From the drop down menu under "Choose Command From." Choose the option of "All Commands," as this provides you the most extensive list of options. Scroll through this list, highlighting and adding which shortcuts you want included in your Quick Access Tool Bar. You can also decide which order you want these shortcuts to be displayed on the Quick Access Tool Bar. When you're done "shopping for shortcuts", click OK.
Spending a few minutes to customize shortcut tools will save you time in using everyday programs such as Outlook and Word. These shortcuts are yours for the taking and you'll love the speed at which you'll be able to get things done.

Tauranga police are trying to locate the victim of a brutal assault in Mount Maunganui last night.
Police say the man was stomped on the head, in front of witnesses, on Marine Parade about 11.30pm.
Detective Kevin Shields said police chased and arrested the offender.
"Witnesses saw a man stomping on the head of the victim numerous times.
"A police foot patrol was moving through the crowd to intervene. The offender ran across the road, to the main Mount Beach where he was located and arrested," said Shields.
Although the victim was seen staggering through the crowd after the assault, he has not been seen since.
"He was heavily bleeding and may have lost a couple of teeth in the attack," he said.
Police are also interested to hear from anyone who witnessed this unprovoked assault.

Catalyst for Canada's First Hybrid Chemistry Cluster
BIC's initial goal from the outset has been to position the Sarnia-Lambton region as a world-scale Hybrid Chemistry Cluster.
The first step was to establish a premier accelerator facility (Bowman Centre) at the Sarnia-Lambton Campus of the Western University Research Park. This formed the nucleus of what would become a benchmark for future development of bioindustrial clusters across Ontario and Canada.
The Accelerator today houses the pilot and demonstration-scale operations of three highly innovative companies – Woodland Biofuels, GreenCore Composites and KmX Corporation. BioAmber, Suncor Ethanol and other green and sustainable businesses are also staking their future in Sarnia as part of the Hybrid Chemistry Cluster.
Today visitors are coming from around the world to learn how and why Sarnia is succeeding in integrating green and sustainable chemistry with its traditional petroleum industries, as well as to explore partnership opportunities.

News of Riverton, Lander and Fremont County, Wyoming, from the Ranger's award winning journalists.
State Rep. McOmie wins Golden Bell Award
Nov 30, 2012 - By Christina George, Staff Writer
The Wyoming School Boards Association at a ceremony last week honored longtime state Rep. Del McOmie, R-Lander, with the prestigious Golden Bell Award.
"We're honored that he was there and more than happy to recognize his great work for the children of our state," WSBA director Mark Higdon said.
McOmie, who did not seek re-election to the legislature after 14 years of service, said he appreciated the recognition.
"I was pleasantly surprised," McOmie said. "It made me feel really good. ... I am no longer going to be in office, and it means something to be nominated for what I have done and not something I am going to do."
McOmie received the award on Nov. 15 at the WSBA 2012 Annual Conference in Casper.
According to the WSBA, the award is given to "those people who have made an outstanding contribution to the improvement of education in the state."
"There were four nominated this year, but only one was selected by the (WSBA) Board of Directors," Higdon said.
Fremont County School District 14 nominated McOmie, and the county's other districts added their endorsements.
Representatives from all eight school districts joined School District 14 board chairwoman Belle Ferris and superintendent Michelle Hoffman at the podium during the ceremony.
"They were very appreciative of me, and that was nice," McOmie said.
Hoffman said McOmie being the only recipient this year made it more special.
"He is well deserving of the award," she said.
In its nomination, FCSD 14 called McOmie a strong supporter of education for all students statewide.
"Mr. McOmie was nominated for this award because of his involvement for the past several years in the Wyoming State Legislature and for his never-ending fight for improving education for our students across the State of Wyoming," the nomination stated. "Del has served as House District 54's representative since 1998. During this time he has spent countless hours working towards the betterment of our children in the State of Wyoming."
McOmie served on numerous committees including 10 years on the House Education Committee, which he co-chaired for four years. He was chair of the Select Committee on School Facilities for four years and served two years each on the Wyoming Education Planning and Coordinating Council, the National Conference of State Legislator Education Committee and the Council of State Governments -- West Education.
McOmie earned the Von Dahl Champion of Education Award and the Wyoming Education Associations Friend of Education Award. The longtime Lander resident is also in the Fremont County Vocational High School/Lander Valley High School Alumni Hall of Fame Class of 1954.


text: Employee engagement is often stated as a priority for many companies and a common buzz word for human resources. Employee well-being on the other hand, is a lot more "fuzzy" as a concept. It can include employee engagement, but then enters the realm of feelings. As in: How do you feel about how you are engaged at work?

VIA Ready Brew
Great Taste, "land" Filling. Could have something to do with Starbucks deal w/Costco, I don't know. These tiny packs of coffee make a wonderful, delightful, full bodied cup of brew that doesn't taste instant. The coffee itself gets 5 stars. Wasteful giant Costco style mega blister pack, then repackaged in groups of three inside that package...I'll bet the two layers of exterior packaging outweighs the little packs 2:1. Anyway, tastes good! Starbucks gets zero stars for considering the environment. Full review

Starbucks taste good on a regular day... Starbucks is AMAZING first thing in the morning after hiking all day and camping out all night. A taste of civilization in the backcountry. If you can boil water, you can easily have a great coffee in the morning before your next day of hiking. This is a lightweight compact treat to help keep morale high. Full review
VIA Ready Brew
These are tiny and pack very light. They make a nice strong cup of coffee. I really love these instant coffee packs. They make a very strong cup of coffee. This really works well for me, because while I don't like my coffee as strong as these tend to be, I can make a cup of coffee in a large mug. There's nothing worse than not having enough coffee to kick start the day, and when I use one of these in a large mug with some extra water and some powedered milk, it makes a very nice, full cup of coffee.

I'm a recovering coffee snob who, in previous years, would have rather drank mud from a puddle than instant coffee of any brand. Those days are over. Alright, I'll admit it. I'm a coffee snob. My grounds of choice come from Peet's Coffee, and I take great pride in brewing a full-bodied cuppa Joe, whether I'm at home or out in the wilderness. Over the years I've used espresso makers for backpacking, drip filter holders of all shapes and sizes, the Aero Press system (still a great way to brew, BTW)… Full review

This has worked extremely well on my last handfull of adventures. I used to swear by the French Press in my JetBoil, and the coffee that produces does taste a lot better. But now I'm just boiling up some water and pouring it in my mug. Perfect for lightweight, late risers. I've always been a bit of a coffee snob. Which is why I'm so surprised with how good these little packets of freeze-dried (?) instant coffee taste. I know the price is quite high, but the convenience factor with the individual… Full review

It also has the youngest population in the world with 50% of it's people being under 20 years old. With this said, this section aims to share Mama Africa's rich culture, passionate people, and amazing cities, so that you too can see what the continent has to offer.
mi-Fone: The FIRST AFRICAN Mobile Devices Brand, has been reinventing the mobile market in Africa since 2008. We believe that it is a necessity, and not a privilege that our continent's people have access to education and technology, so that's why we set out to create "Aspiration…Within Reach"™
Making over 1.3 billion Africans "Mobile" is too large for one company to accomplish, but we believe we will empower over 100 million people with our affordable, yet innovative mobile devices.
mi-Fone currently has a footprint in over 15 countries throughout Africa, and will rapidly continue to grow over the next five years.
mi-Fone was founded in 2008 by Alpesh Patel. Our management team & advisory board brings an extensive knowledge base of Africa, Mobile Telecoms, and Technology. Our team members have worked with various companies such as Motorola, Coca-Cola, Razorfish, Microsoft, Deloitte, and Phillips. With a team presence spanning over 5 countries, we have Africa covered.
About: Alpesh Patel, Chief Executive Officer / Founder
Born in the Ugandan jungle while his parents were there on safari, Mi-Fone's CEO and Founder is the true meaning of "Indian Blood...African Heart". This original African Indian Entrepreneur made a name for himself selling large volumes of Mobile devices to the Chinese back in the 90s.
Alpesh founded Mi-Fone in 2008, after leaving Motorola where he was their Director of Sales in Africa where he placed more than 5m devices into the continent. Whilst there, he realized that the big brands were missing the point and that ultimately Africa was best served by Africans themselves. His 20 years of experience in the mobile business is not to be taken lightly, and he is well respected on the continent for his knowledge. Alpesh has a deep palate for Nigerian delicacies and is ALWAYS the last man standing at Mi-Fone events.

We remain slightly above consensus on German real GDP growth in 2014, as we expect the incipient recovery to continue over the next few quarters.
We believe that more distributive policy proposals by the new coalition government jeopardise much of the fiscal progress made over the last decade. Stronger growth and the long-term nature of these proposals imply limited impact on the current administration's debt and deficit targets, but if implemented would increase the fiscal burden for future generations.
Since Germany's massive current account surpluses are being channelled into unproductive overseas investments we believe the country is squandering its large net savings. This trend will reverse modestly over the next few years, but structural factors will prevent more efficient use of sustained

Universal Design Data
Modern web design (as of 2011) tends to be both accessible and search-engine friendly. In the coding of your web page, presentation is generally separated from content -- that is, the content of your page is tagged with universal styles. Pages are not structured with tables, but with cascading style sheets and <div> tags (and eventually with the semantic tags of HTML 5).
The topic of your page should be reflected in the title tag and in the main headline for the page -- and that main headline should be identified with H1 tags, with subheadlines identified with H2 and H3 tags.Text
- Use style sheets to format text. Avoid using absolute font tags such as font face or font size. Specifying relative sizes such as h1 and h6 allows users to adjust text size to their sight needs.
- Use single columns of text, rather than multiple columns.
- Avoid using images to represent text. Users cannot upsize the text in images to increase readability.
- Use formal grammar. Write for your audience.
- Avoid the use of large blocks of italic text; it's harder to read.
- Don't use flashing or animated text.
- Provide the long version of acronyms at the beginning of every page where the abbreviated name is used.
Alt tags
- Provide text alternatives to visual and auditory content.
- Keep alt tags meaningful and short.
- If you must use bullets or buttons, use "" as the alt tag.
- Text and graphics must be understandable when viewed without color. Avoid statements such as "Read the red text first." Users with color blindness or otherwise sight disabled will not be able to see which text is red.
- Select foreground and background colors with sufficient contrast between them. Print the pages of your site in black and white to check the contrast and readability.
- Use solid, single color backgrounds.
- Avoid using graphics that contain multiple objects.
- Provide alt tags for all the graphics on your pages.
- Place a 2x2 pixel invisible gif in the upper left corner of your Web page, add alternative text to the gif such as "Go directly to main content," and link the invisible gif to the beginning of your main content. This gives the returning disabled user the option of skipping through the headers and navigation.
- List links on your page, rather than placing them on one line separated by vertical lines or pipes. This facilitates screen readers in accurately reading through the links and allows users with fine motor control limitations to more easily select one link.
- Size links so that you, as a test, can readily click them using your non-dominant hand.
- Place links on words describing what will be accessed, such as Resources rather than Click here.
- Check that your site can be navigated without using the mouse. Use the tab key and directional arrows.
- If your page has a search function, place it close to the top of the page so that a disabled user can utilize it quickly without having to listen or scroll through lengthy content.
- Provide alternate text files for sound.
- Use closed-captioning on videos.
- Provide alternate descriptions for animations.
- Give the user a choice of versions; for example, with or without Flash, Shockwave, JavaScript, or other.
- Use style sheets to control layout and presentation. However, check that your page is readable with stylesheets turned off to give the user the choice of what works best for her needs.
- Use screen layouts that are consistent and uncomplicated.
- Avoid using images to represent text where you can, with the possible exception of navigation links.
- Begin a site with a table of contents linked to each specific section of the site or have a site map to provide an overview.
- Provide a text-only version of your page and include a link to that version near the top of your page.
- Use only for formatting data. Test your page with a screen reader. One version, JAWS, is available in the DSS Lab RM 429.

Out of 308 songs penned by the Fab Four, 48 (16 per cent) make reference to the weather, researchers found
by Sarah Knapton July 7, 2015
Britain may have become obsessed with The Beatles because they bombarded the public with songs about the weather, a new study suggests.
Brits love nothing more than moaning about the weather and it seems a spell of bad weather is an inspiration for songwriters too.
Over 900 songwriters or singers have written or sung about weather - and The Beatles are among the most prolific, researchers from Oxford and Southampton Universities found.
Dr Sally Brown, of Southampton University, said: "We were all surprised how often weather is communicated in popular music whether as a simple analogy or a major theme of a song.
"These examples indicate discussing weather - often seen as a British obsession - is a popular pastime, and much can be learnt from how society portrays weather in music and the types of weather that inspire musicians.
"Thousands of popular songs have been written, many hundreds of which contain references to weather."
Rain was a frequent theme employed by The Beatles

We all live in a Jell-O submarine!
A Brooklyn-based artist recreated some of The Beatles' most iconic photo shoots and album artwork using gelatin.
Henry Hargreaves, a 36-year-old New Zealand native, started the unique artwork back in June, mixing up different colors of the snack to create edible portraits of the British band.
Each painting took about two hours to create — with Hargreaves using plasticine to make an outline and then filling it in with gelatin.
"I've always enjoyed toying with people's expectations when it comes to food," Hargreaves told Barcroft Media.
"Here, viewers might be fooled into thinking they're looking at a 2-D illustration of the yellow submarine, but upon closer inspection, they'll realize the reflective color blocks are in fact made entirely of jelly," he added.
Hargreaves is a full-time photographer and food artist who made headlines last year for his photo series that cataloged death row inmates' last meal choices.
It has been over 50 years since Beatlemania took over the world, going on to produce hits like Eleanor Rigby, Love Me Do and Yellow Submarine. Speaking in a new interview with Esquire Magazine, Paul McCartney has revealed he doesn't think any modern day band will be able to recreate the same success as The Beatles. The 73-year-old singer claims the British rock band - made up of Paul, John Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison - found worldwide fame thanks to writing their own material and their own individual skillset.
'Let's not forget, those four boys were f***ing good,' he confessed. 'You name me another group who had what The Beatles had.
'We all played, which is pretty hard. You don't get a lot of that these days. 'We came at the right time. We wrote some pretty good stuff, our own material. We didn't have writers. Could that happen again? I don't know. I wish people well but I have a feeling it couldn't.'
When quizzed about his 'goodboy' image, Paul said: 'It's something I've not cultivated. 'But I think when you become a family man, when you've got grandkids and you openly admire them, that gets cuddly. 'With the knighthood details
His is the voice on "Yellow Submarine,' "Octopus' Garden' and "With a Little Help From My Friends."
Now, a new biography chronicles Ringo Starr's life. In "Ringo: With a Little Help," author Michael Seth Starr – no relation to Ringo Starr – tells the story of the drummer from his earliest days on the streets of Liverpool to the height of mega-fame as one of the four band members in the Beatles.
In an interview with ABC News' Juju Chang that aired on "Good Morning America" today, Starr said the American audience got its first glimpse of Ringo as "the funny Beatle" when the band appeared on "The Ed Sullivan Show" in 1964. "They fell in love with him immediately and the public – it's funny, if you watch their famous appearance" on the "The Ed Sullivan Snow," Starr got the "most applause" when he was shown, the author said.
Ringo's goofball personality was on display in the movies "A Hard Day's Night" and "Help."
"Ringo has a natural affinity for clowning around and comedy … he did make several movies while the details
"You see so many people who retire and then immediately expire," says McCartney. Despite achieving more than any man (or any star) could ever dream of, the 73-year old has no intention of ever stopping. "Sit at home and watch telly? That's what people do, man. Gardening, golf… no thanks," he declares. "My manager, who I don't have any more, glad to say, suggested quite a long time ago that I retire at 50. He sort of said it's not a good look. I went, 'Oh, God, he could be right.' "But then I still enjoy writing, I still enjoy singing. What am I gonna do?"
The living legend is about to play at Roskilde tomorrow, followed by dates in Norway and Sweden on the Out There tour, and then on to Lollapalooza at the end of July. He also hit the charts recently with two of the world's hottest younger stars, Rihanna and Kanye West, even if he ruffled some feathers by comparing Kanye to John Lennon. It seems unbelievable that a man who has is still touring, who has sold over 600 million records with The Beatles alone, plus his solo releases, could possibly feel that he hasn't done enough. Yet, he does.
"It is a silly feeling,' he admits. "And I do actually sometimes talk to myself and say, 'Wait a mi details
John Lennon would have turned 75 this autumn. And despite it being 35 years since he was murdered in New York, the Lennon 'legend' lives on.
Now The John Lennon Songbook is returning to the Philharmonic Hall in a new staging as part of the Liverpool Philharmonic Summer Pops and the Liverpool Phil's 175th anniversary.
First performed in Liverpool to sell-out audiences in 2008 during the city's year as Capital of Culture and again in 2010, including performances in Shanghai and Beijing during the Phil's first tour to China, Liverpool actor and vocalist Mark McGann reprises his role as Lennon in the concert. The 53-year-old first stepped in to the shoes of John Lennon as a teenager at the Liverpool Everyman in the 1981 hit play Lennon, written by Bob Eaton, which made him a star. He has since reprised the role on stage and on film, including in his show In My Life and has picked up a coveted Olivier Award along the way for his portrayal of the Beatles' frontman
He said today: "'It's been an honour and great privilege to work closely with the world class RLPO on The John Lennon Songbook in recent years. "I certainly hadn't expected to be appro details
Sir Paul McCartney has shared his "frustration" at people thinking John Lennon was the Beatles.
The 73-year-old musician and John formed the band along with George Harrison in 1960, with drummer Ringo Starr joining in 1962.
They went their separate ways in 1970 and all produced solo music, but John's career came to a halt when he was assassinated in 1980. It was a difficult period for Paul and all involved, and not only because they had lost someone close to them.
"When John got shot, aside from the pure horror of it, the lingering thing was, OK, well now John's a martyr. A JFK. So what happened was, I started to get frustrated because people started to say, 'Well, he was the Beatles.' And me, George and Ringo would go, 'Er, hang on. It's only a year ago we were all equal-ish,'" Paul recalled to British magazine Esquire. "Yeah, John was the witty one, sure. John did a lot of great work, yeah. And post-Beatles he did more great work, but he also did a lot of not-great work. Now the fact that he's now martyred has elevated him to a James Dean, and beyond. So whilst I didn't mind that - I agreed with it - I understood that now there was going to be revisionism. It was going to be: John was the one. That was details
On the eve of his 75th birthday, it's time to celebrate the musical contribution Ringo Starr made to the Fab Four.
'He was the most influential Beatle,' Yoko Ono recently claimed. When Paul and John first spotted him out in Hamburg, in his suit and beard, sitting 'drinking bourbon and seven', they were amazed. 'This was, like, a grown-up musician,' thought Paul. One night Ringo sat in for their drummer Pete Best. 'I remember the moment,' said Paul, 'standing there and looking at John and then looking at George, and the look on our faces was like …what is this? And that was the moment, that was the beginning, really, of the Beatles.'
I think Ringo Starr was a genius. The world seems to be coming around to the idea. Two months ago, he was finally accepted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — the last Beatle to be inducted. About time too. On 7 July he turns 75.
Some might now plead, enough. Ringo should surely just be celebrated for being Ringo: daffy, doleful, odd. Ousting for good in mid-1962 the gloweringly sexy, Mersey-fan-adored Best, Ringo chanced upon the biggest ride in showbiz history and so became the luckiest Scouser of al details
By the time it reached Osaka, Japan, in late April, Paul McCartney's "Out There" tour had been on the road for nearly two years. It had played to close to two million people, from Montevideo to Winnipeg, Nashville to Warsaw, with crowds in Seoul and Marseille and Stockholm still awaiting its arrival. "Out There" succeeded the "On the Run" tour, which itself followed closely on the heels of the "Up and Coming" tour, which began at the start of this decade. I could keep rewinding through his past in this way to make my point about McCartney's tireless globetrotting, but not with anything like the energy and enthusiasm the man himself can summon for each retrospective spectacular. He plays up to 40 songs at each gig, from a catalogue that stretches back more than 50 years. Each show lasts nearly three hours. The intense demands this places on him would have been remarkable in 1965, when he was 23, so it's anyone's guess how he does it now. Not that he shows any signs of stopping, or even slowing down.

Sony Corp. won a U.K. court ruling blocking a documentary-maker from showing a movie about the Beatles' first concert in the U.S.
The film by WPMC Ltd. about the 1964 performance in Washington called "The Beatles: The Lost Concert," infringed Sony's copyrights in the U.K. and the U.S., according to a ruling in London Wednesday. Sony owns the worldwide copyrights to eight songs in the concert, including "From Me to You" and "I Want To Hold Your Hand," Judge Richard Arnold said.
The concert, shown in cinemas and theaters across America as part of a 90-minute package with performances by the Beach Boys and Lesley Gore, took place a few months after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and helped spark "Beatlemania" in the U.S. What happened to the master tapes after the show "is unclear," Arnold said.
The songs "are reproduced in their entirety; the extent of the reproduction is excessive having regard to the transformative purpose; and the permit such use would likely damage the market for, or potential value of," the songs, Arnold said in the ruling.
Calls to Sony and lawyers for the company and WPMC were details
It's a familiar story, at least as old as I am: across America's public schools, arts education programs have been slashed as a cost saving measure, leaving private systems and non-profits to fill in the gaps. In my estimation, one non-profit happens to be filling in that gap rather well, doing so in a way that benefits students, teachers, schools, and the private sector all at the same time.
This program is called, quite simply, the Lennon Bus; think of it as a highly technical realization of Partridge Family values: essentially a recording studio on wheels (though these days, it's much more than that), the Lennon Bus tours the country, making appearances in school districts and after-school programs—many of them severely impoverished.
More than an arts/engineering intensive, the Lennon Bus aims to teach children the importance of team work, focus, discipline, and goal-based learning—and they do all of this by means of a technologically up-to-date multimedia facility. The Lennon Bus also seeks to demonstrate just how valuable such student programs can be to school administrators; having shown off its wares, the Lennon Bus often proceeds to facilitate the donation of the necessary e details
When recounting their experience, anyone who has ever had the pleasure of interviewing Sir Paul McCartney will reveal the one agonising thought that whirled through their mind as they began their preparations: where do I start?
The life and career of a musician so vital that he stands as a pillar in the foundations of rock and roll is naturally so expansive, so prolific and so unique that finding one point in thousands from which to launch a line of questioning can drive you crazy. Of course, that's only half the battle: once you've found your flow, and the research throws up an endless list of questions, where do you stop?
For his 2007 cover story with Clash Magazine, I arrived at my first interview with Paul clutching six sheets of A4 paper and enough questions to fill both sides of each (and that was after some furious self-editing), eager to satisfy a lifetime's curiosity, and squeeze into our conversation and the allotted time the kind of answers any superfan - like myself - would cherish, because who knew if or when this opportunity would ever arise again. We'd begin, of course, by talking about his new album, 'Memory Almost Full', but from there, our direction was unmapped and the landscape vast.
In 1973, John Lennon was sued by an American music mogul for the claimed theft of lyrics written by rock and roll legend Chuck Berry. The case was settled out of the court but it turns out the Beatle was not the only member of his family to be accused of being light fingered.
Historic records which go online today for the first time show that a century before John Lennon's unwelcome brush with the law, his great uncle was busy embarking on a life of prolific crime to make ends meet in Victorian Liverpool.
The documents detailing William Lennon's criminal career, which started in 1876 with the theft of 11 coats and four pairs of trousers before eventually graduating to counterfeiting coins, are part of 1.9 million legal and criminal records held by the National Archives now available on the internet.
The vast database details the nefarious activities of hundreds of thousands of Britons over 157 years until 1936, as well as chronicling the lives of some of the justice system's more notorious enforcers, including the man reputed to be Britain's longest-serving hangman.

After collaborating with the likes of Kanye West and Rihanna, Paul McCartney is continuing to work with a younger generation of influential artists. This time around he's teamed up with Lady Gaga and Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready for the soundtrack to a new animated feature he's producing titled High in the Clouds. The film is based off the children's book McCartney co-authored in 2005, and Macca will also voice one of the film's characters, Deadline reports.
Gaga hinted at the collaboration back in February, saying she was working in the studio with McCartney on an unspecified project.
"Had a beautiful session with Sir Paul McCartney and friends. Working on one of his many secret projects! Killer musicians, vibe, and lots of laughs," Gaga captioned a photo on Instagram of herself alongside McCartney, McCready and a room full of instrumentalists. "Always a good time with my buddy. I'll never forget when he called me last year to work and I hung up the phone cuz I thought it was a prank!"

All My Loving Review | Dir. Tony Palmer
"We met over a great deal of brown rice and he said, 'you have a duty'", director Tony Palmer explains about an early encounter with The Beatles star, John Lennon, and so the blossoming of All My Loving began.
A film about pop in 1968, initially to be aired on the BBC after the epilog, hit London cinema screens again recently. "Everyone demands the existence of heroes...here in Liverpool were born four heroes, The Beatles", an amusing Pathé news voice states. Offering conflicting views from within the industry, "If it sells, who cares" declares Eddie Rogers of Tin Pan Alley, while The Who's Pete Townsend argues, "It's crucial it (pop music) should remain as art." These stand points show that this doc is still tackling focal issues within the music industry some 40 years after it's making, perhaps Paul McCartney's insight that "Pop music is the classical music of now", is still relevant.
To say this is only the second film made by Palmer, it is an achievement, though you could be completely forgiven for thinking that it doesn't do what it says on the tin. Less a documentary ab details
Collection of nonsense rhymes will be heard in full for the first time, 35 years after the former Beatle's death.
Thirty-five years after his death, the first unabridged performance of John Lennon's nonsense poetry will take place at the Edinburgh festival fringe after a crowdfunding campaign reached its target.
Backed by the musician's widow, Yoko Ono, who said she might travel to Scotland to see the production later this summer, the new adaptation is the first time In His Own Write – Lennon's wordplay-obsessed collection of nonsense rhymes and drawings – will have been performed since Lennon read extracts of it on television in 1964.
Baldynoggin Productions has cast three actors for the show, including director Jonathan Glew, who was responsible for getting permission to use In His Own Write from the Lennon estate. The estate, run by Ono, is notoriously careful about granting access to any of the Beatle's works.
"I basically spent a week writing the best letter of my life," Glew told the Financial Times. He said he had decided to go to the free fringe – where production companies are not charged for venue rental, provided they offer fr details
In his signature song for a little pop group from Liverpool, England, Ringo Starr warbled "I get by with a little help from my friends."
Well, those friends better be proficient in iCal and multitask scheduling because the diminutive Billy Shears is a little busy these days.
Starr, recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist (the last Beatle to be so honored), has released a new CD, "Postcards From Paradise." He's the face of both a new ad campaign for Skechers and his own #PeaceRocks social media movement. And he's headed back to the concert trail this fall with the latest version of the All Starr Band.
Did we mention that he turns 75 on July 7? And that he has, thanks to an insanely healthy lifestyle, plenty of boundless energy (as Houstonians saw firsthand last year during his gig at The Woodlands) and only a slightly higher body-fat percentage than, say, Gollum.
In the first major biography of the "funny Beatle" in nearly a quarter century, Michael Seth Starr (no relation) charts the life and career of the man born Richard Starkey.
The book separates Starr's life into three parts: pre-Beatles, Beatles and Post-Beatles. Readers learn that growing up, Starr - details
Sean Lennon recently gave an exclusive interview to the Humanity, the biannual publication of denim brand Citizens of Humanity, where discussed his inspirations (perhaps unsurprisingly, his famous parents John Lennon and Yoko Ono rank high on the list), his favorite Beatles songs, and what he thinks about Kanye West working alongside his father's former collaborator, Paul McCartney.
Lennon attributes his first musical efforts to the work of his prodigious father, but not in the way you might think -- "It's not like I had the Beatles hanging out jamming in my house," he says. "When he died," he tells Humanity, "I remember feeling like there was sort of a vacuum that had been left. I used to just try to play the piano to connect with my idea of what I thought he was, being a musician and stuff. I think at first my inspiration came from just wanting to find some connection to my dad."
His mother, Yoko Ono, is equally inspiring as a musical collaborator. "She's incredible in terms of her lyrical capability," he tells the magazine. "I mean she'll write like 3 or 4 songs a day in the studio. That makes it really fun, so often we'll make it up as we go along." Lennon's favorite details
This week's edition of Deep Beatles could be retitled "A Tale of Multiple Mixes."
Originally intended for the Hard Day's Night soundtrack, the Beatles' "I Call Your Name" stands out for its cowbell-led percussion, unusual musical structure, and distinctive guitar solo. While omitted from the album due to its slight similarity to "You Can't Do That" (chiefly its cowbell), "I Call Your Name" resurfaced on the Beatles' 1964 UK EP Long Tall Sally and the U.S. Capitol release The Beatles' Second Album. Today, it can be found on the Past Masters compilation.
John Lennon had been hanging on to "I Call Your Name" since the Beatles' pre-Hamburg days, according to a 1980 Playboy interview. "That was my song. When there was no Beatles and no group, I just had it around," he said. "It was my effort as a kind of blues originally, and then I wrote the middle-eight just to stick it in the album when it came out years later. The first part had been written before Hamburg even. It was one of my 'first' attempts at a song." In a 1994 interview, Paul McCartney recalled helping Lennon revise the details
Yoko Ono is a towering figure in the twentieth-century art and music worlds. She was one of the main artists behind the Fluxus movement, and her performance and visual art and sound experiments had made her famous before she ever met her future husband, John Lennon of The Beatles. Lennon was a visual artist as well as a musician; his simple, spare and playful art was as accessible as any of his music and imbued with a similarly unique creative vision. Ono is now exhibiting some of Lennon's visual art at various art galleries around the country, including Fascination Street Fine Art, where special prints are for sale. We recently spoke with Ono about her late husband's artwork, its populist sensibility and the importance of giving.
Westword: You're displaying the art of John Lennon around the country. As someone who was involved in the avant-garde art world early on, including being part of the Fluxus movement, how would you say that John's work fits in with the history of art?
Yoko Ono: One day, a long, long time from now, maybe [it will fit in with the history of art]. Things go very fast, so I don't know when that's going to be. But I think John's work will be very highly rated because not one artist I see in details
Paul McCartney had been on the road for nearly a year when his Flowers in the Dirt tour finally touched down in Liverpool on June 28th, 1990. This was a special night since McCartney had been completely off the road since the final Wings trek in 1979, and this was his first show that centered around Beatles tunes. A humongous crowd showed up at King's Dock to watch the local hero and cameras were rolling for a television special.
The year also marked the 50th anniversary of John Lennon's birth, and McCartney wanted to do something memorable at the show to mark the occasion. "So much gets said about me and John," he said at the time. "And we had barneys [British slang for fights], plenty of barneys. I like the idea of putting that to rest by playing a small tribute to to him."
He pulled that off by performing a long medley that incorporated "Strawberry Fields Forever," "Help!" and "Give Peace a Chance." It was the first time he'd ever played those songs live, and he picked them since they were quintessential Lennon tunes. "To me, 'Give Peace a Chance' is one of John's big statements to the world," McCartney said. "I'm not trying to make a saint out of him, but the Vietnam War was bought to a close by a mill details
When your band features a Beatle (George Harrison), a Heartbreaker (Tom Petty), The Bard (Bob Dylan), The Voice (Roy Orbison) and The Sound (Jeff Lynne), you're gonna be a pretty impressive outfit.
What's your favorite supergroup? There are plenty to choose from, to be sure.
Cream. Blind Faith. Derek and the Dominos. (OK, enough of the Eric Clapton groups.)
And there's Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. The Highwaymen. Damn Yankees. Mad Season. Chickenfoot. Them Crooked Vultures. Velvet Revolver. Those are just the ones I can think of. There are certainly more.
My favorite? No question. The Traveling Wilburys.
When your band features a Beatle (George Harrison), a Heartbreaker (Tom Petty), The Bard (Bob Dylan), The Voice (Roy Orbison) and The Sound (Jeff Lynne), you're gonna be a pretty impressive outfit. If you've never heard the music of the Traveling Wilburys, take a few minutes and spend some time on YouTube. (I won't tell your bosses, colleagues or family members ... go ahead.)

Global Beatles Day was founded, not with commercial purposes, but to commemorate their music and celebrate them collectively and individually. Even further tan Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, John Lennon and George Harrison's magical tunes, The Beatles were huge on promoting peace and love, truth and youth, and most of all, the expansion of human consciousness. They explored the expansion of rhythm and blues, rock and roll, until they innovated and found new ways to make music. GBD is celebrated on June 25th because the hit song "All you need is love" was performed by The Beatles on the BBC produced program, Our World, on that same day in 1967.
In order to celebrate the four musicians, we've compiled a series of their greatest quotes; some of which made it into their song lyrics, and some others just went down in history.
"Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans." – John Lennon
"And, in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make." – Paul McCartney
"It's all in the mind." – George Harrison
"Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted." – John Lennon
By: details
Perhaps the most surprising thing about Paul McCartney's recent collaborations with rap superstar Kanye West — apart from the fact that Paul McCartney actually collaborated with Kanye West — is how dominant the former Beatle is on each song.
Though it's coated with auto-tune and sung by West, "Only One" is the kind of crackling oddball that would sit right at home on 1980's weird but sincere McCartney II, its punch-drunk keys and effects dropping out intermittently to reinforce West's intense love for his young daughter and late mother.
"FourFiveSeconds" is sung largely by R&B hitmaker Rihanna. Its words are an ode to club-life catharses — "I think I've had enough/ I might get a little drunk/ I say what's on my mind/ I might do a little time" — and it leans heavily on Rihanna's serpentine croon and West's earnest speak-singing. But the bright jangle of McCartney's acoustic guitar and the ebullient lilt of the song's infectious chorus recall the underrated joys of 1971's Ram.
Following the December release of "Only One," a shower of uninformed Twitter users reacted details
But Berwyn Mountains flying saucer investigator Russ Kellett insists the drawing of an encounter Lennon had with a flying saucer in New York is genuine.
The former girlfriend of John Lennon is reported to have claimed a rare drawing of a UFO by the Beatles legend, acquired by an expert on one of North Wales' greatest mysteries, is a fake.
Russ Kellett, is known for investigating the 1974 UFO Berwyn Mountains incident involving theories of an extraterrestrial craft crashing in the area.
Mr Kellett said a few months ago he bought Lennon's sketch of an encounter he had with a flying saucer in New York - the same year as the North Wales incident.
However May Pang, who was with Lennon at the time of their alleged UFO sighting in New York, has reportedly told the online magazine examiner.com it is a fake. She is reported to have said: "Seriously???!!!! This is not anything close to his drawing style. He never drew another one of the UFO sketch when he was with me. I have that one. He definitely would not draw one when he was living with Yoko and me in the pic."

MIXED DAY: Stephen Thompson scored a goal, but also missed a penalty
Craig Stoddart, Deputy Sports Editor / / Match Reports
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Darlington suffered their first defeat since last December as they suffered a shock 4-2 loss at Farsley for whom Aidan Savory notched a hat-trick.
Two penalties changed the game. Farsley scored theirs to go 1-0 up and alter the dynamic of a game that Quakers had started promisingly, and with ten minutes to go Darlington missed a penalty at 4-2 down just when they looked like mounting a comeback.
However, it was poor defensive work that cost Quakers. Until today they had not conceded in their first two games of the season, but they were sloppy at the back throughout and the absence of the injured Gary Brown was apparent.
Manager Martin Gray selected the same side that was so impressive in the midweek win at Bamber Bridge and they looked like continuing that form when they began in command.
Stephen Thompson was on a mission and at the centre of everything dangerous Darlington did. After beating a full-back he flashed a ball across goal but there was no team-mate on hand to take advantage and he then blasted a fierce drive at goal that Tom Morgan saved with his feet.
Then came a goal for Farsley by Rob O'Brien from the penalty spot. It came out of the blue, Darlington had been on top until Farsley's first attack when Savory was tripped by Leon Scott and suddenly the game's dynamic changed.
While Quakers were adversely affected, Farsley were buoyed by the goal and only an excellent fingertip save by Mark Bell kept it at 1-0 when Savory tried his luck with an audacious volley.
It was not long before it was 2-0 though. Leon Scott missed his kick and allowed in that man Savory to shoot confidently shoot beyond Bell.

It was to get worse for Quakers. On 35 minutes it was 3-0 with Savory adding his second with a goal that summed up Darlington's defensive deficiencies.
After Scott conceded a free-kick by handling the ball, Paddy Miller hit the crossbar from the set-piece, Quakers could not clear the loose ball and Savory pounced to ram home from close-range.
Just before the break, Darlington pull one back via Andy Johnson for 3-1. After a Chris Moore cross, Thompson turned a defender inside out and blasted into the six yard box where Johnson turned home for his fourth goal for the club.
Encouraged by that goal, Darlington will have wanted to make a positive start to the second period, but it was Bell who had to make the first save after the restart. He stopped a volley by Marc Thompson after the keeper's punch fell to Farsley's No. 11.
Andy Johnson got to the byline, but shot at goal from a narrow angle instead of shooting to the better-positioned David Dowson, who was on as a sub, or Chris Moore.
At 3-1, Darlington felt they still had hope. But that was extinguished when Savory scored his hat-trick when Darlington unable to deal with a throw-in. Savory collected the ball and turned past a defender before unleashing a powerful shot into the corner for 4-1.
Paul Robinson, also on as a sub, saw a shot punched away by keeper Tom Morgan, who seemed to lose the flight of the ball, but he was unable to stop Thompson's next effort.
He tucked the ball home with a low drive after receiving Johnson's pull-back from the byline to make it 4-2 with 17 minutes to play.
With time ticking, Farsley showed little interested in attacking while Darlington piled forward and they thought they'd pulled one back, but Dowson's 'goal' was ruled offside.
Gray's side were making a real go of it. A Moore shot was beaten away for a corner by Morgan and the winger also blasted the ball across goal, but Johnson couldn't turn home.
Then came the lifeline Darlington needed: a penalty, won when Johnson was felled by Matt Young.
With Terry Galbraith having been substituted, Thompson was on the spot but he blasted well wide and the chance of an unlikely comeback was over.
Darlington attempt to return to winning ways against Kendal at Heritage Park on Monday.
