As a German–American club, we offer bilingual day care. The children are exposed to both languages and cultures.
The philosophy of our day care centers emphasizes tolerance and acceptance of other cultures, the value of appropriate social behavior and the support of independence and self-esteem in the children.
Children who have been in our day care center are not automatically accepted at the John F. Kennedy School.
Registration and Admission
Registration takes place from October till the end of March each year for the coming school year. Places will generally be allocated till the end of May. The application form for the "Kitagutschein" that is required for registration, can be downloaded here and is to be submitted to the "Jugendamt" of your district of residence. We will gladly help you fill out this form, which is required for admission. We require all families to be members of the Club.
The Center managers select the children according to the following key factors:
Language background:
• 1/3 English mother-tongue speaking children
• 1/3 German mother-tongue speaking children
• 1/3 bilingual children (E/G)
Children whose dominant language is neither German nor English can only be taken under exceptional circumstances.
• Girl/Boy ratio: Ideally 50/50
• Age: A balance in the age of the children
• Siblings: Preference is given to siblings of children already attending our day care centers.
If there are more registrations according to the key factors than space available, there will be a lottery.
The day care fee is set by the Berlin Senate depending on family income (Tagesbetreuungskostenbeteiligungsgesetz).

We had thought that the Marsh Tavern had replaced the old Marsh Tavern but the following article suggests that they may have both traded near here at the same time for at least a while?
A report in the Ipswich Journal** on Aug-05 in 1871 when Thomas Mayhew was the landlord states that :
"Mayhew (landlord of the Marsh Tavern and cab propretor) was charged with receiving stolen horse feed from a Samuel Mealing. Mealing was seen frequently carrying a sack into Mayhews public house by Mr Pooley (landlord of the Old Marsh Tavern) and Issac Norman (landlord of the Three Swans). Mayhew was found guilty and sentenced to 12 months hard labour."

Okay this post has nothing to do with This is Spinal Tap, but I recently found out that my veins measure 11 mm in my leg. Seriously. That's just huge. Well, as of today, I have one less vein in my left leg. After months of preparation and scheduling conflicts, I had venous ablation. Let me tell you about it. (Don't read this while you're eating).
For years, I have been dealing with really ugly blue varicose veins in my leg. Seriously ugly. Like, I haven't worn shorts, or a skirt shorter than mid-calf in at least 5 years. My daughter thought they looked like big mosquito bites.
When I realized they were actually hurting, I decided to take them to the doctor. My PCP sent me to a vein surgeon. He was mightily impressed with my really ridiculously heinous veins, but he said I would be better off with a different procedure. See, this guy would just do a stripping where he would remove the offending vein from hip to ankle. The Dr. he was sending me to, does something completely different, and only slightly less gross.
I went to see the new guy at a hospital I didn't even know we had in this town. For real. I had my veins mapped from hip to ankle to make sure my veins were big enough to be eligible for the procedure. That's when I found out my veins go to 11. They're huge. Apparently.
I was originally scheduled to have this procedure last month. But I showed up with the remains of a sinus infection. They couldn't do it. Too much risk of infection. So they rescheduled me. A week later, they realized the doctor was going to be gone that day. Reschedule again. The day before the scheduled date, they did some math and realized my legs were longer than the catheter they had (I'm 6′ tall.) Not going to work. Reschedule again.
Today was the day. Doctor in the house. Adrienne sans infection. Correct length of catheter. Let's go! They stuck me with the IV and took me to the procedure room. I was chillin' on the table, chatting with the techs and doctor and stuff. They're working out how they're going to do this thing cause the top half of the vein is on the front of my leg, and the bottom half of the vein is on the back. No problem. I complained that my IV was poking me. After making sure the thing was working, they decided I just needed narcotics. I fell asleep not too long after that.
The difference between this surgery and the usual kind is that it didn't matter when I woke up in the middle of the procedure. I seriously woke myself up snoring a couple of times. I woke up enough to realize they were still busy with my leg, and went back to sleep. Basically, what he did was run a catheter up my vein a cauterize the inside of it to shut it down. No vein, no varicosity. (That's a real word. I swear.)
I woke up just in time to hear the doctor say, "Oh, hey! The other ones are gone! They disappeared. We're done." Then I had a conversation with the techs about Saturday Night Live and "More Cowbell." Apparently, when he shut down one vein, it shut down the other ones that were attached to it. Neat.
One hour in surgery. One hour in recovery. Then Michael and I went to lunch.

Brikama are 'little' affected by Modou Jallow's decision to join Real De Banjul albeit on loan basis, says Brikama United Coach Sulayman Kuyateh.
The nitty-gritty of the deal remained undisclosed to the press but Modou Jallow sealed a move to the capital club for one year, last week.
Sulayman Kuyateh concedes that the player's departure 'affects' his Sateba Boys but insists 'not to that extent'.
"There could always be replacements. We will have replacements for him. Yeah it affects us a little but like I said not that much", Coach Kuyateh who is in second spell as West Coast Region side's manager said opening up for the first time since the move last week, told Foroyaa Sports.
The acquisition of the ex-Brikama vice-captain 'Figo' is show of Real De Banjul's audacious ambition to reach, at least, the second round of the Caf Champions league and retain the championship title on the domestic front.
Fielded as a midfielder-winger in Brikama, his presence gives coach Alagie Sarr options up in attack with Bubacarr Trawally, Modou Njie Sarr, Musa Bala Sowe, on-trial Buba Melez Jallow and Dimingo Manneh making up a fierce-looking lethal frontline.
'Figo' had a short stint with Armed Forces during the soldiers' participation in the Military Cup in Ivory Coast.
He was handed his first national team cap in a 1-1- stalemate against Angola making it from the Scorpion starting lineup.

In his article on tests to identify "fake" food (Technology, 1 October 1994), Paul Rodgers says: "Unfortunately, neither the protein test nor the antigen test works if the food has been cooked or tinned. The processing breaks down proteins and antigens, making it impossible to distinguish species."
This may be the case for canned fish, but it is not the case for cooked fish. In our 1985 paper, "Electrophoretic identification of raw and cooked fish fillets and other marine products" published in Food Technology in Australia (vol 37), J. Shaklee and I clearly demonstrate that there is a heat stable class of protein (parvalbumins) that can be used to identify many species of fish. This comes as quite a surprise to many people.

MUSE stands for "medicated urethral system for erections."
The medicine is a small pellet that is inserted inside the opening at the end
of the penis (urethra). The applicator has a thin tube that contains the pellet
of medicine. The tube is inserted into the urethra. By pressing a button on the
applicator, you release the pellet. The medicine is absorbed through the
membrane that lines the inside of the urethra. An erection develops in about 10
minutes and lasts at least 30 minutes, but usually less than 60 minutes.
See a picture of
MUSE (transurethral therapy).
The medicine relaxes the muscles in the
surrounding blood vessels of the penis, increasing the blood flow into the
penis. This allows an erection to occur. The medicine is inserted into the
penis before sex. How well it works depends on how much medicine is
This medicine may be prescribed for
erection problems (erectile dysfunction) that are
caused by psychological or physical problems, or both. Short-term use may help
increase confidence in men whose erection problems are psychological.
This medicine is effective, but how
well it works depends on the dose you use. More than 6 out of 10 men had
successful intercourse at least once using a higher dose of MUSE. But smaller
doses had smaller percentages of positive results.1
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
Call your doctor right away if you have:
Common side effects of this medicine include:
See Drug Reference for a full list of side
effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
When considering MUSE, it is
important to include your partner in your decision.
The medicine may cause irritation for your partner when you ejaculate.
When you use this medicine, your
partner should avoid performing oral sex.
It is not known how this medicine may affect a fetus in the uterus. If you have sex with a pregnant woman when using this medicine, it's a good idea to use a condom. And if your partner
is able to get pregnant, she may want to use some form of birth control during sex.
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

It was an enjoyable time being able to listen to the roast of Starkville High School baseball coach Danny Carlisle Tuesday night.
If someone was looking for a laugh Tuesday night, it could easily be found at the Greensboro Center Auditorium.
A roster of roasters, including some of Carlisle's former players, friends and fellow coaches, got to take some shots before Carlisle took the mike and got the last laugh. Believe me, he made the most of it.
Not sure what Carlisle plans to do once his coaching career comes to an end, but if he wanted to be a stand-up comic, there might be some that would encourage that after seeing the closing moments of the roast.
Of those dishing out and taking were Chris Correro, who played for Carlisle from 1984-86, Ryan Taylor, who played for him from 1989-91, Kevin Randle, who played for him from 1992-95, coach John Patton, a former SHS coach from 1986-2010, coach Tate Fischer, a Jacket coach since 1990, and Stan Miller, the Starkville athletic director since 2010.
All six of these men had their own stories to tell. Not sure how much of it was true, but once they committed, there was no turning back.
As each man told their own set of stories about Carlisle, he sat in a red chair in the middle of the stage and took notes himself. Carlisle was planning the things he was going to say once it became his turn.
Even though there was plenty of good natured humor taking place, there were also some serious moments.
Correro talked about how much Carlisle touched many lives and that he "has been a big part of my life growing up."
Taylor spoke of the impact Carlisle has made on the city of Starkville.
"The passion he had for kids, the community and program are unmatched," Taylor said.
Carlisle graduated from SHS in 1971 and has worked in the school district for 35 years. He has been the baseball coach of the Jackets for the last 29 seasons.
Starkville has won three state championships under Carlisle's leadership (1986, 1987 and 1991). He has won over 500 games during his coaching career.
Miller, who has watched as Carlisle has achieved success with the Yellowjackets, said motivation is a key to it.
Bo Bell may have said it best during his remarks.
"There will never be another Danny Carlisle," Bell said.
Credit must be given to SHS journalism advisor R.J. Morgan and those who worked closely with him for putting together the roast. It was definitely worth the effort.
Carlisle now turns his attention to the business at hand and that's try to coach SHS to another series win which is very important to him.
As it was indicated during the roast, Carlisle hates to lose and I'm sure he reminds the Jackets, even today, that losing is not an option.
Starkville takes on the New Hope Trojans in the quarterfinals of the Class 5A playoffs, ironically the Trojans have been one of the biggest rivals for the Jackets over the years.
This should be a close and competitive series with the winner moving on to play for the North State title the following weekend.
It would be fitting if Carlisle was sent into retirement with a fourth state championship.

Re: New Build in South Oz

I did a bit of head scratching about the gravity defying brickwork. Then it hit me, they are house bricks with reo Steel through the holes! Will it attract heat and warp? I don't know. But with angle iron at least its shape stops it from sagging.
One thing you might want to rethink is that 7 in?chimney in the flat 18? in entry. No smoke chamber to collect and direct the smoke up the chimney. Just a flat surface......just pointing it out

Re: New Build in South Oz
The higher expansion rate of stainless over mild steel explains why it warps so much.
Somewhere else in another thread i took some measurements which showed a stainless sheet in front of the oven mouth considerably hotter than the brickwork around and indeed closer to the fire. This shows that the more conductive material does get hotter and as mild steel is way more conductive than stainless you'd expect the difference to be more marked. I think the fine stainless needles in a castable have a chance to dissipate their heat to the refractory that surrounds them, but a thicker lump of stainless would be more likely to give problems.
I'm not saying it won't work. it'll probably be quite ok, but some members have reported problems when using angle iron as a lintel and without gaps at the ends of the angle iron the expansion creates cracks. I once used a system like yours on a kiln I built years ago, in which i had a lid joined by threaded mild steel rods through holes drilled in firebricks all held together with angle iron and tightened with nuts. worked ok for up to internal stoneware temps.

Re: New Build in South Oz
It'll be even less efficient due to he wants to make a 45 degree bend straight out of the vent and lead the flue back over the oven. Can't see that draughting as well as a nice tall vertical flue.
Fear not, I have a simple improvement plan for when he finds out a smoke chamber is necessary.
Will the lengths of rod let it sag? Dunno, I doubt it, but we'll soon find out.
It'll be easy to replace if it doesn't work.
The client is always right.

Re: New Build in South Oz
It's all a matter of which way the energy is flowing. You keep thinking about high conductivity steel transferring heat to the bricks, but when its encased in the masonry, its more about low conductivity material transferring heat to the steel.
Anyway, no angle iron in this set up, therefore no gap left for it to slide when it expands.
My mate used threaded rod, my only concern being the size of it, and reo bar which I don't have a concern with the size.
(My other concern is appearance, but he's happy with the look so who cares? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say.)
If it worked up to stoneware temp for you, I suppose it'll work for pizza oven entry temps.
Re: New Build in South Oz
I guess if the steel rod is free to move within the holes in the bricks, ie. it's loose and the ends have somewhere to expand to ,then you shouldn't expect problems. I'm interested to hear how it goes.
Re: New Build in South Oz
By the way, the rods are 650mm long.
So if the roof gets to 400 degrees, which is highly unlikely, the difference between the expansion of brick masonry versus steel is 2 mm.
With a thermal expansion of 13 x 10(-6) m/m K, 650 mm of steel should increase in length by 3.4 mm. 650mm of brick (5.5) by 1.4 mm.
So we are debating about bugger all. Especially since the throat won't get that hot. I imagine we'll be able to put our hands on most parts of the entry without a burn.
I reckon the people who have trouble with lintels have them in the oven proper, where they really do get that hot.
If the throat got that hot, then the carbon would burn off, and I've never yet seen an oven with the soot burnt off in that area.
Still got a heatwave here so there'll be no lighting of my oven to check temperatures for a few weeks yet.
BTW, did you note the expansion coefficient for concrete? At 400 degrees, there would be 0.6 mm difference over a metre of length.
I think I see why the Michelevit's brick oven on a shoestring didn't crack despite all the dire predictions to the contrary.

Re: New Build in South Oz
you talking inside entry or outside entry.
as my inside entry the other day as around 380c
That flue is of concern. Hope he likes lots of smoke in his face as that will happen. Even with the thought I put into my flue gallery I don't get a lot of smoke out front but there is some. With a flat gallery and a flue that wont be straight and travelling reverse direction against the flow of smoke. travel that is a tall ask. Be interested seeing what happens. But you can give people all the great ideas in the world but in the end they just have to see.
Sounds like you are a little frustrated as it appears the collective is out voting you

Re: New Build in South Oz
I'm not [I]particularly[I] frustrated, except by the way this website logs me off before I finish typing.
If, by collective you mean the guys I'm building this oven with, yes on occasion they can be a little testing. But its all part of the fun.
My mate commented the other day that he didn't think this oven would be as much work as it had been.
I pointed out we made the dome in 8 days, and if it wasn't for the client's penchant for departing from the tried and true, we'd be eating pizza by now.
For example his desire to angle the flue back is based on clearing the edge of his shade sail. I'd relocate the bloody sail.
When he expressed a desire for a square entry with no visible steel showing, I said the only way you could do that is with perforated bricks with reo running through it.
I called it a manufactured lintel, and initially I was keen on it.
The client pounced on the idea like a staffy on a pig's ear, and held on as well too.
My mate reads all these posts during his late night bouts of insomnia. Right now he's probably laughing his head off.
His words were "Let's do that, post it on the forum and see how many people say it'll never work."
I reckon the bricks threaded on reo will work fine, though I wish I'd been there to influence the design and execution a bit.
In the unlikely event that it proves structurally unsound the whole entry is free standing and unconnected to the rest of the oven, so it'll take bugger all to remove it and do it different.
The draughting with the flat roof and the angles in the flue is a different story.
But I do have a contingency plan for that.
And I don't think I've yet mentioned his vision for doors. With adjustable vents for combustion air, the controlled admission thereof.
Re: New Build in South Oz
Hmmmm. it will work as I said I put a weekend to getting the venting to flow smoothly out of the oven. He wants flat he has got flat. Personally I gave up smoking 12 years ago and don't wish to start again.
Cheers Colin

Re: New Build in South Oz
Funny thing is though, when I anchor on my favourite snapper drop on a dark, dead calm winters night, with the berley stream flowing, the hooks baited and the only sound the lapping of the water on the hull and a dog barking in a farmhouse 2 miles away, and all I have to do is wait for the fish to get interested, I still after all this time, feel like a smoke.
I'd get instantly dizzy and fall over the side, but still I feel like a durrie.

Sugar Loaf leave chicory. Upright light green variety with large long and very tight head. Reliable. Franchi special selections are varieties selected primarily for taste and consistency. Best for fall, but will work in the spring from transplants. Easy to grow and easy to head up. Use cooked or in salads.
Posted by Bob on 31st Mar 2014
It's crisp and succulent, with the perfect balance of bitter and sweet. Since I first grew it last year, it's been my favorite leafy vegetable, and one I don't expect to be surpassed any time soon.
Posted by Maureen Wall on 27th Mar 2014
Dear gardeners, If you haven't grown the chicory family yet this is a great place to start. Remember these are cool weather crops. Start them in the late summer or fall and cover with a cold frame or cloche when the temp. gets really cold. This particular chicory forms a nice cone shaped head, and is sweet like iceberg lettuce but better than iceberg lettuce. Your friends will know your a master gardener with these pretty cones of green in your winter landscape.

Muscle Mustangs & Fast FordsFeatured Vehicles
2007 Shelby GT-500 - Crossing Over
Mark Kauffman's Apparent Genetic Mutation Appeared In The Form Of This Sick Sonic Blue Chevy Killer.
Starting with a modular FRPP Modular cast-iron block, Montague installed a Kellogg forged-steel crankshaft (3.85-inch stroke), Manley H-beam forged-steel connecting rods, and a set of 0.020-inch-over Diamond forged-aluminum pistons. To complement the 330ci short-block, Montague reached out to Livernois Motorsports (Dearborn Heights, Michigan) for a pair of its Stage 3 Three-Valve cylinder heads, which feature oversized intake and exhaust valves, custom porting, and titanium valvesprings and retainers.
To achieve his ultimate goal of 700 rwhp, Mark turned to the fine art of forced induction. Initially, he tried two different big single-turbo setups. Even though both made big power, neither were very street friendly. After much research and debate, Mark and Montague decided on Whipple Industries' 3.4L twin-screw supercharger. Since no one makes a kit to install the 3.4L compressor on a Three-Valve, Montague and the ST Motorsports team had to fabricate a custom intake manifold.
The rest of the drivetrain didn't stand a chance behind the new engine, so Mark ordered a custom Art Carr Performance Products AOD, with 4R70 internals and an Ultimate Converter Concepts 10-inch torque converter. A Detroit Locker 31-spline differential and Moser axles were chosen in lieu of the stock parts.
The GAS staff knew the suspension needed an upgrade if it was going to put the power to the pavement, so QA1 coilovers were installed in the front and QA1 shocks in the rear. A BMR extreme antiroll bar, and Metco upper and lower control arms, were also utilized to get the 700 rwhp to the pavement. For stopping the 4,000-pound beast, GAS installed drilled and slotted rotors, Hawk pads, and stainless steel brake lines.
Once the drivetrain and chassis components were installed, they soon realized there were many new challenges still ahead. The stock wiring/computer wasn't capable of handling the new components needed for cooling and fuel delivery. Nearly the entire wiring harness had to be replaced by the GAS team.
To handle fuel delivery, GAS built and installed a custom fuel cell, a high-volume fuel pump, and custom fuel lines. Also housed in the trunk is a GAS-fabricated, 14-gallon reservoir for the air-to-water intercooler. GAS also hooked up Mark with a custom nitrous system for an extra jolt when needed.
Externally, Mark wanted the car to look mostly stock but to be unique as well. Since he liked the Sonic Blue, he had GAS paint on white racing stripes. The quarter-windows were removed to make way for functional cooling ducts, and custom airbrushing was added by Bill Coogle.
When the build was completed, a custom street tune by Racer's Edge Tuning (Downey, California) yielded 696 rwhp on 91 octane, and 797 rwhp on 91 octane with a 100-shot of nitrous oxide. A best quarter-mile e.t. of 9.60 at 142 mph should keep Mark smiling for a long time, although his family may not be as pleased.

When it comes to jig fishing, some anglers pick their jig color through trial and error. Wisconsin fishing guide Jim Stroede says his method all depends on where he's dropping a line.
"I kind of match the color of the jig to the color of the water that we're fishing," Stroede said. "Here we have some lakes that are pretty clear. In clear water, I fish with more natural colored jigs. In the darker water, from the rivers and the flowages, we go with a brighter color like flourescent orange, or maybe a pink or chartruse color. Something the fish can see visually as you're jigging it through the water."
Tune into Eyewitness Sports at Six and Ten on Wednesday and Thursday from more fishing tips.

The River
The River
Newly restored 35mm print!
Jean Renoir, 1951
Many classic films are just as powerful today as when they were first released. We add such films from many genres to our schedule throughout the season. Many are shown on the occasion of their rereleases, in fresh, new or restored prints.
Restored to its full Technicolor glory, Jean Renoir's The River is one of the most beautiful color films ever made.
One of the most beautiful color films ever made, Jean Renoir's The River features cinematography by Renoir's nephew Claude. Its gorgeous palette and fluid visual style point to the heritage of the director and cinematographer as the son and grandson of Impressionist painter Pierre Auguste Renoir.
Adapted from the Rumer Godden novel about an English family living in Bengal along the Ganges River, the film stars Patricia Walters, Nora Swinburne, and Arthur Shields. This restoration premiered at this year's Cannes film festival and had its U.S. premiere at Lincoln Center in August. (99 mins.)

Jay Z and Beyonce's On The Run Tour Tops $100 Million, 'Everybody's Winning'
Jay Z and Beyonce's On The Run tour wraps in North America with two nights at AT&T Park in San Francisco, both tonight (August 5) and tomorrow night (August 6). The pair's 19 North American shows will gross over $100 million in ticket sales and has sold at more than 90 percent capacity, according to Omar Al-Joulani, vp of North American touring for Live Nation, the promoter/producer of the tour. Attendance will top out at more than 850,000.
Al-Joulani declined to comment on press reports of rancor between the couple, adding that he hadn't read it. Regarding such reports, and speculation that Live Nation might be losing money on the tour, Al-Joulani would only say, "everybody's winning." And regarding reports that the plug might be pulled on the tour, the promoter adds, "Production is loading-in in San Francisco as we speak."
Some reports put the couple's performance guarantee at $4 million per show, which is a reasonable figure, considering the tour's nightly take is over $5.2 million from an average attendance of nearly 45,000 per show. As predicted by Billboard back in June — when inaccurate reports that the tour was struggling began to surface — sales for the tour finished strong, following a general market trend of tickets selling closer to show date. "These shows sold tremendously well at the end, so we were able to sell-up limited-view and clean up production holds or other holds," says Al-Joulani. "It was a very successful tour, and we're pleased to have that big gross number at the end."
The Jay/Bey tour was conceived and launched fast compared to most stadium tours, which are often planned more than a year in advance. "It came together quite quickly, around mid-March," says Al-Joulani. "By April, we had everything together, and once the routing was in place we had about three weeks until the tour was announced."
Considering the quick ramp-up, the fact that both Jay and Beyonce had been on the road much of last year, and the available window was narrow, routing was a bit of a challenge. "We knew we needed a big 'statement play' in L.A., and we needed big statement in New York, so we started by figuring out the avails at the Rose Bowl [in Pasadena] and MetLife Stadium [in New York]," Al-Joulani explains, "and then from there it was just a matter of sorting it out."
Given the "event" status of music's reigning power couple and the fact that producers were on a tight schedule, "We threw all the usual rules out the window," Al-Joulani says. "We didn't worry about days of the week, as long as we were headed in the right direction. There is one beautiful thing about routing late: There's no messing around, the building is either available or it's not. You're not holding for anybody, you're not waiting for a football or baseball schedules, there was no room for 'maybes.' It was all, 'is this building available?' which makes your life a lot easier, because there are no variables. And [stadiums] wanted it, so we were able to pick and choose our way through it."
Along with the "must-play" major markets, the tour routed into some secondary markets like Cincinnati, New Orleans and Seattle "that turned out to be wildly successful," Al-Joulani says. Cincinatti sold out on the pre-sale, New Orleans was "massive," and Seattle went completely clean. "We had the greatest time in those markets."
Production was "epic," as described by Al-Joulani, with three staging systems hop-scotching across the route. Elements included a moving high-def screen, pyro, hyrdraulic lifts, and a B stage extended well into the audience. "Knock on wood — we started production load-in in San Francisco at noon today — every show has gone up on time, with no production issues," he says, adding that there were no weather issues or delays, either. The total production moved on 42 trucks, with about 150 crew.
Given the unique nature of these two artists, their fans, and the fact that they've both toured in the last 18 months, ticket scaling was tricky, but Al-Joulani says the goal was to be inclusive. The low end was $40, then prices went up the chain to P1s topping out at $275, and a wide array of premium packages. "Our strategy was to sell as best as we could on the primary system and to price tickets for what people were willing to pay for them, with a very dynamically priced model, so that wherever you were on that ticket chain, you… had an opportunity to attend the show," the promoter explains. "We made sure we had affordable tickets as well as the higher-priced tickets that we know the market can bear. Pricing went right across the spectrum."
Momentum was solid, from the couple's sizzling Grammy performance in January, Beyonce's new record carrying through until Q1, a hit in "Drunk In Love," and the single "On The Run" from Jay Z's record, as well as a dramatic tour trailer created by the two artists. "We had a lot of things that went into making this tour an event, and that was part of our success," Al-Joulani says. "These events are driven by content and demand, and being dramatic and creative and putting out content people want to see. The two of them are as about creative as you can get, and it was pretty brilliant to watch them work. The show itself is spectacular."
Chase handled the pre-sale as the tour's credit card sponsor, and the financial services firm, "really embraced it and did a great job," says Al-Joulani. Adding that deal was put together by the Roc Nation sponsorship team, led by Michael Yormark. "He delivered that and did a great job executing and bringing Chase to the relationship."
After North America, Jay Z and Beyonce will take On The Run to Paris Sept 12-13, which is being shot for an HBO special. "We're on track to sell out both shows," says Al-Joulani.
Far from stressed out, Al-Joulani was upbeat and clearly happy with the tour's success. "This has been a lot of work, but it has been the smoothest, most fun run that I've ever worked on," he tells Billboard. "We have a great group of people on the road, the artists have been phenomenal, both management teams are engaged and available. It has been a ball, and I'm actually sad it's ending. I wish we could be out for another two months."

Governor declares emergency, sets Ferguson curfew
Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency and imposed a curfew Saturday in a St. Louis suburb where police and protesters have clashed in the week since a black teenager was shot to death by a white police officer.
Despite heavy rainfall and lightning, hundreds of protesters gathered Saturday night at a busy thoroughfare that has been the site of previous clashes with police. Dozens of officers, a much more visible presence than the night before, stood watch — including some with shields.
In announcing the curfew, Nixon said that though many protesters were making themselves heard peacefully, the state would not allow looters to endanger the community where 18-year-old Michael Brown was shot in a street. The curfew will run from midnight to 5 a.m. Sunday.
"I am committed to making sure the forces of peace and justice prevail," Nixon during at a press conference at a church that was interrupted repeatedly by people objecting to the curfew and demanding that the officer who shot Brown be charged with murder.
"We must first have and maintain peace. This is a test. The eyes of the world are watching," Nixon said. "We cannot allow the ill will of the few to undermine the good will of the many."
State statute gives the governor broad powers when he declares a state of emergency, but he hasn't indicated that he plans to do anything other than imposing the curfew and empowering the state highway patrol to enforce it.
Darrell Alexander, 57, a registered nurse from nearby Florissant, Missouri, worried Saturday night that the curfew might spur anger and more violence.
"I think it's an antagonistic decision to not allow people to express their freedom of speech. It's an overreaction," he said.
Nixon's curfew announcement came after tensions again flared in Ferguson late Friday night. Earlier that day, local police identified the officer who shot Brown as Darren Wilson and released documents and video footage alleging that Brown had robbed a convenience store just before he was shot. Police said Wilson was unaware Brown was a suspect when he encountered him walking in the street with a friend.
Nixon said the U.S. Department of Justice is beefing up its civil rights investigation of the shooting.
Missouri State Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson, who is in charge of security in Ferguson, said 40 FBI agents were going door-to-door in the neighborhood starting Saturday, talking to people who might have seen or have information about the shooting.
Johnson assured those at the news conference that police would not enforce the curfew with armored trucks and tear gas but would communicate with protesters and give them ample opportunity to leave. Nixon and Johnson were flanked by numerous local elected officials, including U.S. Rep. William Lacy Clay Jr., who urged Johnson to be flexible with the midnight curfew.
But they were interrupted repeatedly.
"Why is the focus on security and not getting justice? Why is there not an arrest?" one women yelled.
Among the many people shouting questions was Malik Shabazz, the president of Black Lawyers for Justice, who said that members of his group and the New Black Panther Party and the Nation of Islam had been helping to maintain order and deter protesters from violence.
"It seems to be a tight curfew line that could be a prescription for confrontation," said Shabazz, who asked unsuccessfully that the curfew's start be delayed by an hour.
Brown's death had already ignited several days of clashes with furious protesters. Tensions eased Thursday after Nixon turned oversight of the protests over to the Missouri Highway Patrol. Gone were the police in riot gear and armored vehicles, replaced by the new patrol commander who personally walked through the streets with demonstrators. But Friday night marked a resurgence of unrest.
On Saturday, some residents said it appeared the violent acts were being committed by people who came from other suburbs or states.
"Who would burn down their own backyard?" asked Rebecca McCloud, a local who works with the Sonshine Baptist Church in St. Louis. "These people aren't from here. They came to burn down our city and leave."
On Friday night, Greg Thomas didn't see the familiar faces of protesters who have taken to the streets each night this week. Instead, he saw new people, younger, more eager for a confrontation with police. The 28-year-old former Marine said he left as quickly as he could when he heard people talking about getting their handguns.
"There's three agendas out there," Thomas said. "People who want to party, people who want to be martyrs and get killed by police, and the people here to protest."
Local officers faced strong criticism earlier in the week for their use of tear gas and rubber bullets against protesters. Johnson said one tear gas canister was deployed Friday night after the group of rioters became unruly and several officers got trapped and injured.
Wilson, the officer who shot Brown, is a six-year police veteran who had no previous complaints against him, the local police chief has said.
The Ferguson Police Department has refused to say anything about Wilson's whereabouts, and Associated Press reporters were unable to contact him at any addresses or phone numbers listed under that name in the St. Louis area.
Wilson has been on paid administrative leave since the shooting. St. Louis County prosecutor Bob McCulloch said it could be weeks before the investigation wraps up.

Possible immigration rift for Obama with Democrats
President Barack Obama is facing potential rifts with members of his own party in tough re-election contests as he barrels toward a fall fight with Republicans over his ability to change immigration policies.
If Obama takes the broadest action under consideration — removing the threat of deportation for millions of people in this country illegally — the short-term risks appear greatest for Senate Democrats in conservative-leaning states. Weeks before the November vote, they could find themselves on the hot seat for their views not only on immigration but also on Obama's use of his presidential powers.
Wary of what could be coming, some of those lawmakers have said Obama should act with caution.
"This is an issue that I believe should be addressed legislatively and not through executive order," said Sen. Kay Hagan, D-N.C., one of the top targets for Republicans trying to retake control of the Senate.
Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., another vulnerable incumbent, said in a statement that he also is "frustrated with the partisanship in Washington. But that doesn't give the president carte blanche authority to sidestep Congress when he doesn't get his way."
Such statements have immigration advocates on edge.
A coalition of advocacy groups, in a letter to congressional Democrats on Friday, said immigrant families should not have to wait until after the November elections for relief. The organizations said any attempts by Democrats to delay or dilute administrative changes "will be viewed as a betrayal of Latino and immigrant communities with serious and lasting consequences."
The letter was released because of advocates' concerns that leading Senate Democrats may be shifting their positions because of political considerations after previously urging Obama to act.
A spokesman for Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., declined to say Friday whether Schumer still believes Obama should act by October, as Schumer had said before. A spokesman for Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Democrat, said the timing of executive action on immigration was up to Obama. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's spokesman had no comment on timing.
Still, Obama looks determined to move forward on his own despite the political risks for Democrats.
He is irritated by House Republicans' inaction on immigration legislation passed last year by the Senate. The crisis over unaccompanied minors arriving in South Texas does not appear to have deterred him, and the slowdown of arrivals at the border may be shifting the issue away from the spotlight anyway.
The exact contours of Obama's plans remain unclear.
Advocates and lawmakers who have talked with administration officials anticipate that he could expand a program that granted work permits and deferred deportation to more than 700,000 immigrants brought illegally to the U.S. as kids. It could be extended to include parents of those children, as well as parents of U.S. citizens, or potentially others — groups that could add up to perhaps 5 million people.
During a news conference this month, Obama was not specific on his immigration plans. He did say that in the absence of congressional action and in order to address the crisis involving unaccompanied youths, he had to shift resources on his own and exercise prosecutorial discretion.
"I promise you the American people don't want me just standing around twiddling my thumbs and waiting for Congress to get something done," Obama said.
Some GOP leaders worry that opposition to a comprehensive overhaul will harm their party in the 2016 presidential race, where Latino turnout is higher than in midterm elections. Hispanics are a fast-growing sector of the presidential electorate and backed Obama overwhelmingly in 2012.
But Republicans also see a nearer-term chance to translate Obama's potential executive actions into electoral success in November. Republicans need to win a net of six seats in order to take control of the Senate for the remainder of Obama's term. The GOP already is all but assured of maintaining control of the House.
As Republicans meet with voters in their districts during the summer break, lawmakers have raised alarms about the scope of Obama's potential plans. In some cases, they are hearing clamors for impeachment in return.
"It is up to Congress to actually go back and restrain this guy," one voter told GOP Rep. Andy Harris of Maryland at a town hall meeting on the Eastern Shore. Harris had warned that Obama could expand an existing deportation relief program to 4 million or 5 million more people, "competing with Americans for work."
Republicans have tagged Obama as an "imperial president" who goes around Congress rather than working with lawmakers, and House Republicans have moved to sue him over it. The prospect of the president making a unilateral move on a contentious issue such as immigration has Republican consultants salivating.
"President Obama's executive amnesty would inject adrenaline into an electorate already eager to send him a message of disapproval," said Brad Dayspring, communications director for the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Also problematic for Obama: His apparent plans to act on his own authority come after years of saying that he did not have the legal justification to proceed without Congress.
"If, in fact, I could solve all these problems without passing them through Congress, I would do so. But we're also a nation of laws," he said in November. A heckler had interrupted a speech he was giving in San Francisco, prodding him to halt deportations, which have reached record highs on Obama's watch.
Since then the White House has apparently concluded otherwise.
Democratic pollsters argue that any executive action by Obama could give a political boost to Democrats, not just from newly energized Latino voters but from an electorate at large that would welcome any action from gridlocked Washington.
"Voters are so sick of the do-nothing Congress they don't mind if there's an imperial president," said Democratic pollster Celinda Lake. "They would just like someone to get something done about something."

Obama finally has some good economic news to deliver
President Obama has talked about the economy for so long you can be forgiven if you think he was first elected during the Panic of 1907. Many voters, no doubt, have learned to tune him out. But after six years in office, Obama finally has an upbeat story on the economy to tell, which could give Democrats at risk of losing the Senate a desperately needed edge in the upcoming midterm elections.
Despite infinitesimal odds of Congress passing any of his big economic ideas, Obama continues to barnstorm the nation calling for more infrastructure spending, a higher minimum wage and other kinds of stimulus. His economic speeches also include a lengthy list of bullet points touting his accomplishments on the economy — something that was in very short supply until recently.
Here are seven of Obama's major claims on the economy, with a bit of fact-checking and analysis:
"Our businesses have now created nearly 10 million new jobs over the past 52 months." That's true, but why the 52-month cutoff? Because that starts the count at the low point for employment in early 2010, making the gain since the bottom as large as possible. If you start the count from the first month Obama took office, businesses have created only 4.8 million jobs. And if you count from the high point prior to the recession, the economy has only added 415,000 jobs, on net, during the past six-and-a-half years. Still, Obama obviously started his presidency in a huge hole, and, so far this year, employers have added an average of 231,000 new jobs each month, a healthy pace of growth.
"Manufacturing is adding more jobs than any time since the 1990s." This uptick in hiring Obama likes to talk about conceals a broader trendline that's much more discouraging. Manufacturing employment was steady in the 1990s but began to fall like a stone starting around 2000. The number of manufacturing jobs remains about 1.9 million less than the tally right before the recession, and 5.5. million jobs below the peak level in 1998. Manufacturing is in the middle of a long transition toward more automated and tech-driven production, which has completely changed the job requirements and nature of work in this important industry.
"Housing is rebounding." True, but housing still has a long way to go. Home prices, on average, have regained less than half the value lost during the housing bust. Many first-time home buyers remain shut out of the market, and the wealth of the typical family is still about 40% lower than it was before the recession. The housing recovery needs to pick up or it could threaten the whole economy.
"Our auto industry is booming." Auto sales have been stronger than many analysts expected and are now close to peak levels from before the recession. Part of that improvement comes from car buyers needing to replace aging, unreliable vehicles, but the sales gain also stems from generous credit and low interest rates available to many buyers — something that's not yet common in the market for homes.
"There are families with health insurance who didn't have it before." Indeed there are, and early surveys seem to show the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, is fulfilling its goal of expanding health insurance to several million additional people. What remains to be seen is whether Obamacare will do anything to reduce medical costs and help the nation deal with an expected explosion in healthcare spending as the baby boomers retire. And many Americans deeply opposed to Obamacare may never like it, no matter what.
"For the first time in nearly 20 years, we produce more oil here at home than we buy from abroad." Obama likes to take credit for the U.S. energy boom, but new drilling technology such as hydrofracking is really responsible. Obama has done virtually nothing in terms of policy to help boost oil production.
"By almost every measure, we are better off now than we were when I took office." Almost is the key word here. Median household income, adjusted for inflation, is still about 5% lower than it was at the start of 2009. Since there are more jobs now, that means a lot of people are earning less money than they did before the recession, which clearly puts a strain on household finances. That could still be the case when Obama leaves Washington in 2017.
Obama critics, of course, argue that the pace of recovery during the past six years has been far too slow and we ought to be much better off than we are now. If Obama's approval ratings are any indication, voters agree, since the president's popularity is near the low point hit during the disastrous rollout of Obamacare last year. Job gains don't seem to be helping Obama's ratings as much as job losses and other problems hurt it.
Still, Obama now has some facts he can point to as evidence of a recovery, which is much better than merely promising it will arrive soon. That may be the best economic news Obama has delivered yet, and it can't come a moment too soon for his struggling Democratic party.

AT&T Suffers Data Breach
AT&T confirmed Friday that attackers compromised the personal information of an undisclosed number of AT&T Mobility members.
AT&T just revealed that outside attackers — allegedly employees of one of AT&T's service providers — stole a trove of personal information on AT&T Mobility customers. AT&T says the stolen information includes Social Security numbers and call records, i.e. details about the date, time, duration and other phone number for every phone call customers make. AT&T would not disclose the number of affected users.
AT&T believes that the attackers were seeking to sell stolen AT&T phones on second-hand markets and hacked the AT&T database in order to get "unlock codes" for the phones, which would let the thieves disconnect the stolen phones from the AT&T network, thus letting the phones reconnect to other mobile networks. This makes the phone far more valuable in secondhand markets.
The AT&T Mobility breach apparently occurred on April 9 through 21, two months ago, but AT&T only just revealed it now, as a California state law requires all companies with 500 or more Californian customers to self-report if they have suffered a data breach.
The good news is, if the criminals are truly most interested in unlocking stolen phones, then only stolen phones are at risk. But because social security numbers were included as well, users should take steps to protect their identity, such as placing an alert on their credit report to watch for fraud.

NWA Biopic 'Straight Outta Compton' Casts Dr. Dre, Eazy-E
After more than five years, four writers and a tough-to-please trio that holds cast and script veto power, Universal's N.W.A biopic Straight Outta Compton is finally getting the green light.
Sources say the studio has assembled its leading threesome to tackle the roles of Ice Cube, Dr. Dre and the late Eazy-E. The three parties with approval—Cube, Dre and Eazy-E's widow Tomica Wright—have signed off on the actors who will play the core members of the seminal rap group.
It's no secret that Cube has been lobbying for his son, O'Shea Jackson Jr., 24, to be cast as the teen version of his father, and it appears he got his wish.
Less known is the classically-trained actor who is said to have won the role of Dre, Marcus Callender. Although the alum of New York's Shakespeare Lab at the Public Theater might be more familiar with Chekhov than Compton's gang-plagued streets, he beat out a phalanx of would-be rappers (the Beats co-founder originally wanted Michael B. Jordan to play him, but the actor is about to take on a Fantastic Four reboot at Fox). Still, Callender has some screen credits, including the pilot for Steve Zaillian's Criminal Justice on HBO, as well as bit parts in the CBS series Blue Bloods and Elementary.
Even more obscure is Jason Mitchell, who insiders say landed the role of Eazy-E after an out-of-the-park screen test. If his casting sticks, it will make for a great backstory, given that he is said to have no acting background and works in a kitchen. (Ironically, IMDB.com already lists two actors that are not correct: Donat Sean Abiff as Dre and Brian Gilbert as Cube.)
The casting of the film has been followed breathlessly for some time, ever since the studio first announced plans to bring the gangsta rap pioneers to the big screen. Despite scripts by Alan Wenkus, S. Leigh Savidge and Andrea Berloff, the project languished for years. But in 2012, F. Gary Gray (The Italian Job) became attached to the project, reviving its prospects. And in late 2013, Jonathan Herman did a major script overhaul, which got the studio excited. Then, in the spring, Universal shot a sequence in Los Angeles in order to qualify for California's film tax credit, which is set to expire. With the film technically underway, Universal had to find its cast. Sources say Wright was the final holdout, but she has finally given her stamp of approval, paving the way for principal photography to begin in less than two months.

Who do you think will be a better pro?
I want to say Fisher. I like his athleticism, I like his mean streak, I like the idea that he could one day be the best tackle in football. He could also play RT for a year and dominate in the run and pass game. But I can't ignore that he could end up like Jason Smith, who I liked, and it seems like Joeckel has a ridiculously high floor.

Tiger boys beat Pinedale to begin 3-A West tourney
Mar 7, 2014 - By Bruce Tippets, Sports Editor
The Lander Tigers dominated Pinedale in the final two quarters to take a 71-49 win in the first game of the Class 3-A West regional boys basketball tournament Thursday at Mountain View High School.
Lander has the No. 1 seed for the double-elimination tournament after winning the regular season crown.
Lander crushed Pinedale 72-48 on Monday to warm up for the postseason.
"Defensively, I don't think that we came out as strong as I hoped that we would," Lander coach Terry Hopkin said. "I thought that the kids were thinking because we won on Monday that it was going to be an easy game."
In the first half, Pinedale stayed with the Tigers and only trailed by six points.
"Pinedale shot the ball really well in the first half," Hopkin said.
Lander came out high energy in the third quarter to quickly pull away from Pinedale. Lander's Casey Winger dropped in 22 points.
"It was just a matter of getting our heads in the game," Hopkin said. "Pinedale cooled down a little bit in the second half."
The Tigers play Star Valley Friday night in one of the semifinal games.
Lander swept the regular season series from Star Valley.
"Star Valley will be a huge challenge for us," Hopkin said. "Star Valley played really well against Jackson" in an opening-day win.
The winner makes the championship game and qualifies for the state tournament.
The consolation game is 1:30 p.m. Saturday between the winner of Mountain View-Lyman.
In the other games on Thursday, Star Valley downed Jackson 55-45. Cody made it past Mountain View 63-56, and Powell defeated Lyman 56-49.
"Star Valley had a full-court press against Jackson," Hopkin said. "We are going to have to handle that pressure to keep our turnovers down. Hopefully, Star Valley will get out of that press."

Many people filing bankruptcy take it as an opportunity to re-evaluate their goals. For some, this may entail going back to school to get a degree, complete a major, or move on to graduate school.
Luckily, even if you've filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you may be able to qualify for certain types of financial aid and loans.
Going back to school is a commendable choice. If you do intend to continue your education, though, you may wish to meet with somebody who can help you better understand your financial options. Fill out the form below to set up a free, no-obligation consultation with a nearby bankruptcy lawyer so you can get the answers you need.
Filing bankruptcy does not typically affect your eligibility for federal financial aid.
In the past, people who had filed for bankruptcy to discharge federal student loans had to pick those loans back up in order to apply for any further federal loans. However, thanks to the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1994, borrowers who had discharged earlier education loans can now freely apply for further federal aid without having to assume the debt of their previous loans.
Whether you've filed for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you may still be eligible for the full range of Title IV grants and loans, such as:
This doesn't apply in every situation. For instance, if you have student loans currently in default which were not included in a bankruptcy, you may be unable to get further aid until they are out of default. PLUS and Grad PLUS loans may also be denied to applicants who've filed for bankruptcy. However, in general, there may still be many opportunities for federal financial aid even if you have filed for bankruptcy. Plus, with your other debts finally cleared, you may find your personal budget allows for some of the expenses. The FAFSA website is a great resource to find out more about what's available to you.
Getting private loans for going back to school is a more complex matter. Lenders are permitted to take bankruptcies into account, and previous filings (especially Chapter 7 bankruptcy) and your credit score may make it very difficult to secure a private education loan. However, if you've filed for Chapter 13 and have proven yourself capable of keeping up with regular monthly payments, private lenders may be more accommodating.
If you've filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy and are looking at going back to school, check out your options. Whether you apply for federal aid or private loans, though, you may benefit from talking to somebody knowledgeable about current laws and how they apply to you. Fill out the following form, and you can get in touch with a nearby bankruptcy lawyer for a free consultation.Speak to a Bankruptcy Lawyer Today

Like just about every other Beltway pundit Richard Cohen is not delighted with what he's seen of the Pelosi Presidency. Yes, that's right. She seems to be running the show two-thirds of the time in the First 100 Days. While Obama was cracking unfunny jokes with Jay Leno, what was Madame President up to?
Using the tax code to exact punishment for political reasons is both bad policy and bad law — why not put gun-shop owners and cigarette manufacturers in the 100 percent bracket? — but it hurtled through Pelosi's branch of the government with nary a hearing and few discouraging words, and only the mildest suggestion from the president that the bill was really a dumb idea.
Likewise, the stimulus pork-a-thon was largely her doing, as was the $410 billion earmark-stuffed omnibus spending bill. Cohen frets that Republicans are using Pelosi's excesses to seize the high ground and that Obama's poll numbers are slipping.
But it's not like we don't have an actual president, right? He could have sent up his own stimulus plan, threatened to veto the omnibus spending bill and declared that the House can rant all it likes but in America we don't go after citizens to grab what the Congress itself has secured by law. That would be leadership — bold, bipartisan and mature.
So why hasn't he done any of that? You got me. Maybe he actually likes Pelosi's radicalism and is hiding behind her skirts. Maybe he doesn't have the force of will or the legislative acumen to head her off. Or maybe he simply prefers to campaign and hold summits, leaving the governing to others. But the result is a far-left agenda and a nice juicy target for his opponents to aim at. Oh — and mounds and mounds of debt.

Finally got my Mac Mini at work. Finally some light at the end of the
long, dark, tunnel of having to deal with WinDoze on a daily basis.
But over the weekend, I realized that there are a whole lot of manuals
that I access regularly, that (for my purposes) only exist on the
Softcopy CD.
And I think everybody here already knows my opinion of the
Disinformation Center.
While there's always the alternative of generating PDFs of the books I

directly, just in case I need to look up something in a volume I
didn't think to convert.
