Nat Keefe - Hot Buttered Rum
1. The Inauguration - Pete Seeger
Years after being blacklisted by the American government, Seeger is given the spotlight in the Capitol.
2. I also got really wrapped up in the Taylor Swift/Kanye controversy. That was fine entertainment. I'm going to stage a similar coup at the Jammys this year. Watch out.
3. I've seen Fruition play a few times this year and it's always been stellar. This soul/blues string band from Portland, OR are the biggest rock stars I've seen with acoustic instruments.
Scott Metzger - Bustle In Your Hedgerow, Gene Ween Band, RANA
1. Monte Good and the Honky Tonk Heroes Band | 03.23.09 | Robert's Western World | Nashville TN
Dave Dreiwitz, Joe Russo and I had a night off in Musictown, USA and went out for steaks. After delicious steaks, we wandered down to music row and went into the bar with the coolest sign we could find - a big neon cowboy boot that said "Western World." No cover. The band was already playing when we walked in. We stayed for about three hours and they were still playing when we left. These guys were absolutely outrageous. EVERY song was a showstopper. Awe-inspiring musicianship. I'm assuming they were playing for the tip jar since it was a Monday night. Truly inspiring. When in Nashville, look up Monte Good & the Honky Tonk Heroes and go see them - you'll thank me.
2. The Dead Weather | 11.17.09 | The Music Hall of Williamsburg | Brooklyn, NY
I went into this show not expecting much. Not that I don't like Jack White, it just seemed a little over-hyped to me. But a good friend scored a ticket for me so I went. WOW. I was floored from note one. It was creepy, scary, frantic, sexy, angry, and raw all at the same time - the way a good rock show should be. Thoroughly satisfying.
Brad Cook – Megafaun
1. Hallelujah Train
A special one-off gospel tribute featuring Buddy Miller, Greg Leisz, Brian Blade, Daniel Lanois and a Baptist church from Shreveport, LA.
2. Dodos
Saw them 15 times this year and was inspired every second of it.
3. Bon Iver
Saw 'em a dozen times this year and was floored. I've heard just about every song Justin has ever written and played with him for years, but I was consistently surprised and moved by that band every time I saw them. From the songs to the guitar tone to the sound engineers, Brian and Xandy, that band is the shit.

2. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band | 11.08.09 | Madison Square Garden | New York, NY
3. John Mayer | 12.16.09 | Jay Leno Show
2. Richard Skelton - Marking Time
Of the ever-increasing number of side-projects for this British composer, none have harnessed his trademarked sound in such a taut and cinched parcel than with Marking Time, which was re-released on vinyl from the 2008 pressing by Preservation Records of Australia. Taking a break from his own label-running and customized packaging duties with Sustain-Release, Skelton gleans shards of forested cello and rambling guitars on this record, which absolutely sets the cairn aptly on a plateau high above the tree-line.
3. Rameses III - I Could Never Love You More
There is a slight humming in the air with scents aloft from these sparse and clean channels. Rameses III splays before us a strict and beautiful collection of sounds. The humus layer is gently abraded to shine forth the flickering-dim evening lights of these neatly crafted tunes. One honestly could (almost) never love this album more.
4. Riceboy Sleeps - Riceboy Sleeps
Extracted from possibly the swooning ambience that shimmered in Sigur Ros, Jonsi Birgisson and partner Alex Somers cull the wispy chorals of the Icelandic Kópavogsdætur Choir to abet them on their lingering journey. Riceboy Sleeps adds an aural layer to the aesthetic mélange of its prequel, which was released in 2008 as a book of images and mixed media. The blissful union of the otherworldly human voices and the glistening wardrobe of sound here can do more than lie us prostrate, ever-gazing upward.
5. Black To Comm - Alphabet 1968
With a countless quiver of choice LPs and an ever-increasing bevy of artists, I have come to rely on Type Record's marksmanship. In a prime example, Black To Comm, hailing from Hamburg, tinges our innermost nests with a dark bedding of the bleak-yet-lovely variety. Alphabet 1968 floats through thickets of found-sounds, field recordings and phantasmic piano and guitar melodies to cloak one's filamented longing with a suitable soundtrack.
1. Tiny Vipers | 06.23.09 | First Unitarian Church | Philadelphia, PA

Dappled Cities
1. Akron/Family
2. Metallica
3. Underground Lovers
Girls In Trouble
Noah Reid - The New Up
Jay Seals – Blue Turtle Seduction
Albums (in no order)
1. Manchester Orchestra - Mean Everything to Nothing
This album has been hitting me right in my psyche g-spot. Just the right blend of Modest Mouse, Weezer, Nirvana, and Avett Brothers.
2. Alice in Chains - Black Gives Way to Blue
There's no replacing Layne Staley, but it's great to hear their music again.
3. 2me - Chasing Silhouettes
Underground Sacramento band. This album is perfect for drinking lattes, watching the snow fall, and reading the comics.
5. Them Crooked Vultures - Them Crooked Vultures
Only been listening to this for a bit, but it's worth throwing in.
Shows (no particular order)
1. Devil Makes Three | 03.28.09 | Tahoe Biltmore | North Shore Tahoe, NV
We played earlier in the night across the street. By the time we got over there the place was packed, but the promoter snuck us through the kitchen and we ended up side stage. Sweaty punk-grass at its finest.
2. Blue Rabbit | 05.23.09 | The Independent | San Francisco, CA
We were co-billing with The New Up and we still needed an opening band for the night. The New Up got this group, and I, assuming it was just some garage band, was blown away by three beautiful women singing harmonious, melancholy music over a indie-dance rhythm section, with violin and harp to boot. The New Up kicked ass that night as well.
3. Papa Mali/Bill Kreutzmann | 10.31.09 | Las Tortugas | Groveland, CA
It was the late night, early morning set. I had never seen Bill Kreutzmann perform before. He just smiled, laughed, and dropped chops left and right.
RL Heyer - Flowmotion, RL Heyer Trio
1. The Black Crowes | 11.17.09 | Showbox Sodo | Seattle, WA
2. Big Light | 08.15.09 | Summer Meltdown Festival | Darrington, WA
3. Mc Tuff | 11.29.09 | The Triple Door | Seattle, WA
Eli Jebediah - Poor Man's Whiskey, Huckle
1. Dan Auerbach - Keep It Hid
Raw and honest. This guy is infectiously comfortable in his own skin. Addictive to listen to.
3. Derek Trucks Band - Already Free
Inspired music by true devotees of their craft. Listening to it gives you the feeling that every member of the band treats each note like it was the most important one they ever played. "Back Where I Started" is also one of the most intimate, tender, heartfelt tunes I heard in 2009.
4. The Mother Hips - Pacific Dust
The Mother Hips is the sound of California rock 'n' roll to me. I don't mean that as a limitation, but rather the only way to describe how they are the custodians of what this state sounds like.
5. Bela Fleck - Throw Down Your Heart (Vol. 3)
An emotionally rewarding and insightful ethnomusicological recording, tracing the roots and rhythms of banjo and American music through field recordings made in Africa. There is a genuine spontaneity to it that rarely gets authentically translated to record.
1. Devotchka | Grand Stand Stage | High Sierra Music Festival
Devotchka is a hypnotic balance of eclectic instrumentation and songwriting. There are many bands out there that have interesting and engaging styles and instrumentation, but no other recipe of mixing these two elements measure up to what Devotchka has created. Their High Sierra set was captivating from the first note to the last. The entire set was a like being transported some unearthly place where nothing made sense in a perfect kind of way.
2. Mike Farris and the Roseland Rhythm Revue | Sunday Revival Stage | Strawberry Music Festival
Mike Farris is a cultural experience. Hearing it is one thing, seeing is another. His Sunday morning revival set was the soundtrack to belief.
3. Three-Way-Tie between:
ALO with Steve Kimock | Harmony Fest | late night
Great night of playful and engaged improv. ALO and Kimock pushed each other into some fantastic creative eddies.
Izabella | Las Tortugas | Tuolumne Hall
Their Saturday night had the most heart of any set I saw all year. Great musicianship and a great moment.
Pretty Lights | High Sierra Music Festival | Vaudeville Stage
I was stunned at the sounds that came outta that guy. Tasty grooves, schooled beats, and playful quotes that really connected with people and got them pulsing to his music.
DP Staxx - The Staxx Brothers
2. Blakroc: Blakroc
Even though this NOE rapper sounds so much like Damon Dash's Kinko copy of Jay-Z, I call bullshit once a listen on the Hova's behalf, this is one of my favorite current band's in top form - with a nice cast of NYC hit men playing musical chairs with the mic. Even when there is a hint on wonkiness, I say, "OH THE HUMANITY." It's not perfect, it's pretty raw, it sounds like they were kind of in a hurry, and all I want for Christmas is a re up. I want Disc Two on a West Coast tip.
3. The Black Crowes: Before The Frost…After The Freeze
I need to spend more time with this album, but they had me at Levon Helm's barn. Top Five. Booyah!
4. Yogoman Burning Band: City of Subdued Excitement
This band makes me tingle all over. The frontman's the drummer and he can sing his ass off - and sell it by the pound. He knocked me the fuck out with pen with the 206 fuck off "Seattle Sucks (a Big Fat Chode)," an ode that shanks Seattle like an angry wino while boosting Bellingham as a rock tourism destination. But it's this new record, City of Subdued Excitement, a killer off the floor album that had me playing this over an over again in the van to fill the void of Eastern Washington, as the badlands just kept coming. It takes a tighter than fish pussy ensemble to pull this off, and they may even have a good stage show, but I have no idea because I really can't stop looking at the bass player. She's hot…wait, she can play…wait she's really hot...And pick up the album. What is it with these Bellingham kids and recording LIVE to analog tape? Don't they know that shit is expensive? Long live digital and the mental safety net of a thousand do-overs.
5. Feral Children: Brand New Blood
I got to hear this before it came out. Scott Colburn strikes again. And I'm not just putting this in my Top 5 to beat some KEXP DJ to it as they salivate over their precious. Nah' man, no dick ridin'. Game recognize game. It's good shit.
1. Jabon | 11.19.09 | The Sunset Tavern | Seattle, WA
I like my music freaky. With wizards and projectors, and mad beats.
2. Elevaters | 03.21.09 | The Thirsty Nickel | Austin, TX (SXSW)
I dragged my whole band down to see these guys in Austin before we had the chance to finally share a bill with The Elevaters. I describe their rotating three-frontman attack as akin to Phil Jackson's triangle offense with The Bulls in the mid '90s, except they have three Jordans. Okay, well, maybe three Pippens. Seriously though, it's a band of actors that met at UCLA and studied under the great Miro Segovia, and they shatter all stereotypes of what actors can do. This ain't no Five Foot Grunt/30 Seconds to Mars buuuuuullllshit! This is L.A. hip hop-soul at its finest. And the rhythm section can cash those checks, son. The bass player recently recorded with Sly Stone. Sly Stone! And he can prove it! That's half as amazing as jamming with Jimi, almost as unlikely, but way easier to accept without mushrooms.
3. (Tie) 5 Alarm Funk (11.15.09) and RL Heyer Trio (11.16.09) on Beer Garden Stage at Summer Meltdown
5 Alarm Funk skull fucked the Beer Garden on Saturday as the sun ran for cover behind White Horse Mountain. The RL Heyer Trio healed our sore eyes the next morning by renewing my faith in what a rock trio can achieve, on behalf of balance, songcraft, and postcards from the edge. I like rock trios in the steady hands of gristled NINJAS…who've seen some shit. And if my memory ain't lying to me again, they did a nice Kinks cover (editor's note: indeed, "Sunny Afternoon" and it was sublime).
DJ Motion Potion
Muse - The Resistance
I know this album got panned as "overreaching and arrogant," but what stuck me so much was how much they achieved and how often it hit its goals. Not a lot of bands can channel Queen, Rage, Depeche Mode and Rush.
1. Caro – "Back it Up" (Kraak & Smaak Remix)
My fave dance track of the year - reggae, sistersoul, breakbeat and that huge Meters sample. A track that appeals to every kind of audience. I have made ALL KINDS of hay with this on dance floors this year.
2. Stanton Warriors – "Boot Vibrations"
A remake of The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" was a hard to find bootleg that is now getting around. Definitely one of the most notable breaks tracks to come out in at least three years.
3. "Earthling" – "Stereofreakz vs Earth Wind & Fire – bootleg edit of "Shining Star"
Another serious killer that's just now getting around.
1. Bruce Springsteen | Bonnaroo
Hadn't seen him in 15 years and he didn't look a day older. To see the "Bonnaroo Generation" getting their first taste of the unbridled energy, joy and majesty of the E Street Band was a wonderful treat.
2. Earth Wind & Fire | Congo Square | JazzFest
40,000 people doing the Hustle in unison. The joy of this afternoon for all who attended cannot be properly put into words. DO NOT MISS EWF when they come through your town.
3. Mat the Alien | Live Set | The Rock Pit | Shambhala Festival
Best DJ set I have ever seen. Canada's secret treasure is the world's best live DJ in my opinion. Does it ALL - turntablism on selections as diverse as rock, breaks, dubstep, house, hip hop, punk, metal.
4. The Mutaytor | The Art of Change (Inauguration Show) | Mayan Theatre | Washington, D.C.
Obama's inauguration night was the backdrop of the finest Mutaytor performance in years (full disclosure: I sat in, but was pretty much a non-factor). If you don't believe me, check out the DVD
5. BLVD | The Rock Pit | Shambhala Festival
The US's top up and coming live electronica act meets Canada's top electronic festival, and its love at first sight.
6. Nick Thayer (DJ Set) | Fractal Forest | Shambhala Festival
A breakbeat clinic - every track an original Thayer edit, every mix flawless, every drop superb. His brother's inventive visuals were an added treat.
7. Motion Potion | Molly & Jeremy's wedding | Santa Cruz Mountains
Yup, it was that good. Just ask anyone lucky enough to attend "Jollypalooza"
8. Phoenix | Bonnaroo
Who knew they were that good live? Certainly not me.
9. Fort Knox 5 (2x4 DJ Set) | "Ghost Ship" Halloween Party | San Francisco
The grandeur of the décor, props and costumes of the party itself almost overshadowed the talent that night - almost, because the addition of integrated video into the already slaying FK5 set took it over the top.
10. Forest Day | Mojito | San Francisco
Any night of their two-month residency. The funk-rock talent of this fresh face had me doing handsprings on a weekly basis. Watch OUT for these guys.
Patterson Hood - Drive-By Truckers - Best of Decade List
1. The Glands - The Glands
2. Gillian Welch - Time (The Revelator)
Another timeless masterpiece and truly my favorite songwriting of the decade. At least three of these songs would be in my top 5 for the decade and "Elvis Presley Blues" is the all time greatest song ever written about a subject that I long considered closed. (That is meant as very high praise and not as a left handed compliment.) I suspect I'll still be playing this one a lot in ten more years.
3. Bob Dylan - Love and Theft (or Modern Times or Together Through Life)
Honestly I could interchange these, as any one of them could sit here nicely. I'll give the edge to L&T since it came out first and therefore has spent the most time in my player. Released on 9/11/01, (the same day my band released Southern Rock Opera) L&T is truly an album of a different time and yet strangely timely as an unintended soundtrack to a suddenly changed America. One of those spooky coincidences that Dylan has spent a career bumping into, the album somehow managed to be timely while also somehow seeming like it could have been just as timely in 1956, at the apex of an American century that was suddenly violently closed. Taken as a three album set, the three Dylan albums (not counting a stellar outtakes Bootleg Series release and a laughable Xmas album) make for a late-life artistic peak that goes far beyond any such in the Rock and Roll Era. Old Man Dylan is in my favorite era of his amazing career and he's totally my pick for Artist of the Decade.
4. Outkast - Stankonia
Before Jay-Z "retired" and Kanye West became a parody of himself, hip hop was actually hitting a peak at the dawning of this century and no one was making cooler records than Atlanta's Outkast. Stankonia is truly their masterpiece. "Ms. Jackson" is in my top 3 favorite songs of the decade and this album transcends its (or any) genre. It still holds up (timeless again) nearly a decade later when most of its contemporaries now sound dated and sometimes silly.
5. White Stripes - Red Blood Cells
They made being Rock Stars almost seem cool again. Big fun, goofy, funny, and smart. Rocking as hell, any nay-sayers must admit how well this album is holding up. Then they followed it up with three more stellar releases, plus an array of side projects and extra points for bringing Loretta back in such incredible style.
6. Iron And Wine - The Shepherd's Dog
7. Radiohead - In Rainbows
8. Centro-matic - Love You Just The Same - My favorite band's best album, although only by inches as I could just about interchange any one of their 6-7 albums this decade and come out nearly as well.
9. PJ Harvey - Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea - Another 2000 release that I still have on rotation.
10. Wilco - Kicking Television (Live in Chicago) - My favorite Live Rock and Roll album since Live At Fillmore East (Allman Brothers).
11. Loretta Lynn - Van Lear Rose - The Comeback of the Century (so far).
12. Radiohead - Kid A
13. Neko Case - Fox Confessor Brings The Flood
14. The Hold Steady - Separation Sunday
15. James McMurtry - Childish Things
16. Iron and Wine - (TIE) The Creek Drank The Cradle / Our Endless Numbered Days
17. Gillian Welch - Hell Among The Yearlings
18. Outkast - The Love Below / Speakerboxxx
19. Bloodkin - Baby They Told Us We Would Rise Again - My Favorite Album of 2009 / "Wild Rhododendrons" is my favorite song of the year.
20. Jenny Lewis and The Watson Twins - Rabbit Fur Coat
21. M. Ward - Post War
22. Tom Waits - Alice
23. Centro-matic - Distance and Clime
24. Patty Griffin - Living With Ghosts
25. Vic Chesnutt - North Star Deserter
I didn't list Bettye LaVette's Scene Of The Crime, as I felt it would be lame to since I played on it and co-produced it, however I honestly can say that it would definitely be pretty high on that list otherwise.

I live with my grandparents since my mom went to prison. Sometimes they act like I'm going to get in trouble like my mom did. They have such strict rules for me. I don't do drugs, drink, or smoke, and I do OK at school. How can I get them to trust me?
- Mark*
When someone is incarcerated, it can be hard on everyone in the family. You and your grandparents probably have a lot of emotions and concerns about your mom's situation. Talking together about how you feel can help you get closer and understand each other better.
Maybe it's natural for your grandparents to worry a little more over you right now. Most likely, they are trying their best to care for you and keep you safe. Talk to them (respectfully, calmly, and with love) about how you feel.
Tell your grandparents you want their trust and that you plan to earn it. Let them know the ways you already try to stay safe and out of trouble. Remind them of what's going well for you. Remind them about what's good in your life, your accomplishments, and the dreams you have for your life.
Listen to what your grandparents have to say about family rules, curfews, and their expectations for you. Talk together about how you can earn their trust and make them proud.
Don't give in to negative expectations anyone may have of you because of your mother's situation. You are your own person. Set positive goals and standards for yourself. Surround yourself with people who are positive influences and who believe in you. Work hard to accomplish your goals and move toward your dreams.
As you build a great track record of taking good care of yourself and doing your best, hopefully your grandparents will be able to trust you more and more.
Sometimes difficult situations can help us learn good things. Try to learn positive lessons from your mom's experience and focus on living your very best life.

Zach Randolph returned from a back injury to pull down 19 rebound and score 13 points Saturday in an overtime win over the Chicago Bulls. Z-Bo played 42 minutes, so it doesn't sound like his sore back was too much of a concern. Get him in your lineups. This season, Randolph is averaging 16.4 points, 11.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, .8 steals and .5 blocks.

One of the classic rarities in U.S. gold coinage, the 1856-O is the rarest gold coin struck in the New Orleans mint as well as being the rarest regular issue Coronet design double eagle. The original mintage was a mere 2,250 pieces with the estimated number of survivors ranging from 10-12 (Breen) to as high as 15-20 (Winter). While this is definitely a Condition Census coin, it is not listed on Winter's Condition Census. Apparently this piece, as with all the Diocese gold coins, has been off the market for a number of years and has been largely forgotten by today's specialists.
Medium greenish-gold color, as with all known specimens, the fields retain a bit of the always-seen prooflikeness with the surfaces overall exuding a brightness not usually seen on gold coins. The striking details are uncommonly strong with only slight softness on the hair below the coronet and in the oval of stars on the reverse. Two abrasions serve to identify this important coin: the first is a scrape in the exergual area above and to the right of the 6 of the date, and the other is a horizontal scratch in the field to the right of the eagle's head. An important, high grade example of this near-legendary rarity in the double eagle series. (NGC ID# 268Z, PCGS# 8918)

I did not like the way it was handled by the manager nor by the rest of the staff the fact that 2 of my bracelets were taken away from where I had left them in the washroom. At no moment in time they apologise to me or gave me any word of support.
The staff is not customer service oriented at all, light years from my recent experience at the Shangri-la in Hong Kong!! The kitchen was dirty, the floor poorly cleaned and still with food remainders from the previous guest. Both things unacceptable in the hotel like this one! I was extremely disappointed and will avoid in the future any stay in Marriotts!

The description of always in contention but has never won no longer can be used to describe Rus Whalen.
Whalen led from an opening birdie on the first hole to the end of the tournament to win the 51st annual Joe Mooney Invitational held at the Cynthiana Country Club last weekend.
Kentucky may not have yet been a state when our country declared its independence nearly 240 years ago, but as we prepare to celebrate that anniversary this weekend, it is worth pointing out we do have ties to this early period.
We were home to about a half-dozen skirmishes during the Revolutionary War, for example, including what is widely believed to be its last: The Battle of Blue Licks in nearby Robertson County.
Saturday night the third class of the Cynthiana- Harrison County Baseball Hall of Fame was honored at an induction ceremony at the Cynthiana Elks Lodge.
The ceremony was preceded by a pulled pork meal made in the Elks kitchen with the barbeque made by David Turner.
Approximately 150 people attended the event to honor the nine inductees.
After a welcome by the president of the Alumni Hall of Fame Committee, Jim Fuller, Buddy Renaker blessed the food and the meal was served.
I found myself listening and reading more about the NBA in the weeks before the draft than I really wanted to, but circumstances caused me to do it.
The circumstances were long drives in my car with a satellite radio and the Lexington Herald Leader.
ESPN radio was devoted almost solely to the draft in the past two weeks and I had to be in Ohio, Indiana and North Carolina. I was a captive audience.
Fillies' soccer tryouts
slated for July 15, 16
Coach Kevin Gaunce has announced that tryouts for the 2015 Harrison County High School Soccer Fillies will be held on Wednesday July 15, and Thursday, July 16.
Former Harrison County, Ole Miss and Chicago White Sox star Chris Snopek managed his 14-and-under team to a national championship last week.
The son of Barbara and Don Snopek of Cynthiana, Chris managed the East Coast Prime Sox, who was the No. 3 seed going into the final four.
The East Coast Prime won its semifinal game by a 9-0 count over the Banditos.
June 18 -- At 5:17 p.m., a fatal accident occurred on U.S. 27 North, one mile north of Cynthiana. Sharri Kroh was traveling south toward town when she lost control of her vehicle, crossed the northbound lane, and struck an embankment. Kroh died shortly after arriving at Harrison Memorial Hospital.
June 17 -- At 9:25 a.m., an injury accident occurred on U.S. 62 East, 2.1 miles east of Cynthiana. Briana Beagle was traveling east when the vehicle entered a curve, left the roadway and struck a telephone pole.
Case reports
June 1 -- At 11:59 a.m., James W. Brooks, Third Street, reported that he had been assaulted by Alan Swinford while he was walking on First Street.
June 1 -- At 7:27 p.m., Abby K. Clinard, 119 Marshall Ave., reported that some of her belongings had been stolen from her home while she was away. Police arrested Timothy Holloway and Shana Hoff, charging them with theft by unlawful taking $500 or more but under $10,000 and theft by unlawful taking under $500.

You can't complain about the 'does what it says on the poster' nature of this week's top title at Royston's Picture Palace.
Right, take a deep breath, let's see who is starring in this weekend's blockbuster presentation at Royston's Picture Palace.
When the big screen version of TV spy drama Spooks made its big screen bow only a few weeks ago, it's fair to say that the reception was muted.
It's another 'hot on the heels of general release' weekend at Royston's Picture Palace, with two screenings for a feature which has only just made its silver screen debut.
Handsome and captivating costume drama is on the programme at Royston's Picture Palace this weekend, with one film drawn from the classics and the other a fresh take on a fairy tale.

Hi. Job, car, and I live alone.
Hey...I'm athletic, active, sincere, fun, and have had an interesting time with meeting people of the female race...I'm a decent person and I care for people, simply because they are people...I love my friends/family and enjoy my solitude, as well as camaraderie...I am looking to learn from my significant other...I'm looking for my best friend...I'm looking to end up with a person that will never make me want single life again... Membership ends in October 2015! Hopefully, I meet someone before then! I live a very drama-free life. I enjoy simple things, like wine, the beach, and golf. I enjoy going to work and the time off I have. I love to laugh and have fun dinners with friends! I am very active and I go to the gym a few times/week. I prefer a woman who can have a great conversation over cooking me a great meal...However, if you can do both, that goes a long way with me. If you have children, that is fine, as long as there is no drama or issues with the father. In fact, I don't mind becoming friends with him, for the sake of the child/children. I want to be inspired more than I already am, by you. I admire those who "do what they say, not say what they do." I like trying new things, but I also have things that I love to do...I would love to find someone that I can drink a glass of wine with...I like to travel...I very much love Hawaii and Santa Barbara. I would like to visit Saratoga, NY every Labor Day. It is an amazing place to be, because of the history and the atmosphere...Europe...Been to Denmark, Sweden(1 day), Paris, & Rome in the span of 16 days...After Europe, I look at life in a different way...I cannot wait to explore the world!! Germany and Prague in May 2015!!! I really love wine, so I hope you do too. I collect Cabs, Sauternes, and Vintage Port...As for beer, Miller Lite is the #1 choice...Fine food, as in omakase or pastrami, is a must... As for the beach, I hope you enjoy the ocean. I want to see as many beaches, as I can, before I die. Lastly, I am a golfer. If you are a golfer, you know what I mean. If you are not a golfer, I don't mind letting you know what it's all about...HUGE PLUS IF YOU GOLF! I want my relationship to be a romantic comedy. Btw, we met at Trader Joe's. Nothing is possible without God.

iPhone Disabled
I found supririsingly little information on the penalties for incorrect entries on a passcode-protected iPhone. So I decided to test it out myself. The only thing is I forgot to count the number of failed attempts. I believe this was after 8 failed attempts, but not sure.
It started with "try again in 1 minute", then 5, now 15. With the delay getting longer and longer, imagine having to wait an hour or more to try to use the phone. Hehehe, I like this feature a lot. We carry so much information on our phones, it's good that there's something to lock it down like this.
If only the iPhone had GPS. It would be cool if the phone sent an email automatically to the the owner's default email account containing the phone's location at the time of lock-out...
The iPhone does have GPS, adonis446.
@kennymurphy: You're thinking of the iPhone 3G. The first iPhone generation lacked GPS.

The minority vote, and in particular the Latino vote, definitely helped Obama win. 80 percent of Latino, black and Asians voted for Obama in last week's election, the same percentage as in 2008. In 2050, non-Hispanic whites are to become half or slightly less of the U.S. population and the GOP had best look out: So many have been commenting in the wake of the President's reelection.
I have been feeling a bit bemused at all this commentary and not only because I'm Asian-American. In my Latin and ancient Greek classes at a small university in Jersey City, New Jersey, where white students are a minority, I often brought up the topic of elections in the weeks leading up to November 6. At my school, white students make up about 28 percent of the student population; black students, about 27 percent; Hispanic students, about 26 percent; Asian students about 11 percent.
Whenever I mentioned Mitt Romney, my students blinked and showed no response, so alien did the now-former GOP candidate seem to them.
While discussing democracy in ancient Athens and in the Roman Republic, I pointed out to my students that none of them, and certainly not myself, would have been eligible to vote, as only male citizens could. Women could not vote; resident foreigners ("metics" in ancient Greece) could not vote; slaves (who may have comprised a third of the population and were often one's former, conquered, enemies) certainly could not vote.
After hearing all this, a young woman who's from the Islands approached me after class and nervously asked me, did I think it was worth the effort for her to apply to vote by mail.
Of course! Every vote, your vote, counts, I immediately replied.
The student told me that she had already filled out the mail-in ballot application but could I look it over for her. She also asked me if I knew where she could purchase a stamp. I started to talk about the nearest post office, then realized that it is not close to the campus, it is not in the greatest neighborhood and, the last time I went there, there was one clerk behind the bars and bullet-proof glass and one very long line.
I told my student I would bring her a stamp. After she had left, another student who was waiting for the next class said he was now going to send in his mail-in ballot.
A few days later, the topic of Obama and the election surfaced again with a student (he is studying Greek to read the New Testament as he wants to be a minister) who's from a town next to Newark where on many a winter day, the public schools were closed because there was no heat as a boiler had broken again and there weren't readily available funds to fix it. "Dr. Chew, I wasn't able to vote in the last election because I was turning 18 in 2008 — and my birthday was the day after the election!" he said, clearly disappointed that he hadn't been able to vote in the election that resulted in our first African-American president.
We talked a little about the first debate and my student looked sad and pained — I felt the same — in recalling Obama's lackluster performance. We both agreed, after the past four years, we were having a hard time imagining seeing someone who wasn't a minority in the White House.
"You can vote this time," I said. "Yes and I am," my student affirmed.
It's been almost two weeks since I have seen my students. The Friday before Hurricane Sandy hit was Eid al-Adha and many students who are Muslim were not in class as they were celebrating the holiday. My school was closed for a week and a day because there was no electricity after the storm. Last Tuesday as I was nervously watching the votes being counted, I felt a rush of cheer on reading a status update from a student (who is black, Latina and Asian): "All my love to President Obama."
Election day has come and gone but for sure I'm asking my students if they voted. One can never be sure, but I've a good idea who many voted for.

Interesting article and comments, thank you.
Interesting article and comments, thank you.
Did you never read the Republican platform, notice the Republican actions, their willingness to destroy America's credit rating and economy in order to gain power over Americans and America for corporate benefit by draining them all, to gain any idea of its plans for those not in the top 1%?
Luckily, enough other Americans did to save us - not just America, but the world at risk.
Sharon R., do you seriously want to see America run by somebody strictly from his viewpoint of corporate and personal profit using public property and the taxpayers money for his personal enrichment?
To see America run by a loose cannon with no ability for normal social behaviours, never mind diplomacy?
To having America viewed by the rest of the world as a hot-bed of dangerous lunacy run by a corporate predator who has his finger on the button of global atomic doom and has shown no understanding of the dangers involved in his behaviour and plans, even of the hazards to himself?
To re-enter another period of endless war/invasion determined strictly by profits gained for the few and the requests of war-mongering advisers?
Do you really want to see yourself and your family - assuming you aren't one of the multi-millionaire/billionaires in the 'in crowd' - used and sacrificed for corporate enrichment, with no protections of any kind for you, your family, the environment on which you depend as your life support system?
Do you seriously want to see children deprived of education, workers of pay as the minimum wage system is dropped entirely and people below CEO level work for food, when they can get it, with no social safety net for you and yours, whether out of work, ill or in old age?
Did you never read the Republican platform, notice the Republican actions, their willingness to destroy America's credit rating and economy in order to gain power over Ameri
@Sharon R, I really doubt that America will come to regret their choice. I think it's you who has missed the point of the article. Romney is not the nice talented businessman that you see him to be. And the students and the rest of the voting population clearly saw that.
I didn't really get the point to this article-- how was Romney involved other than the fact he's not a minority? Personally I think America missed the point. An incredibly talented and motivated businessman offered his services to the country to help it regain its economic stability. Not only was Obama lackluster in the first debate, he's been lackluster consistently in regards to economic gains. We may really regret not having accepted Romney's services in the years to come.
Thank you for the article.
Thanks everyone for their great comments...well almost everyone.
But..then again, in a way, I am pleased to see the naysayers.
There is always that SLIM chance that if they continue to "hang around" the rest of us...
Some part of us just MAYBE might rub off onto them.
Ya think ?
I hope so.
Well, Liberals/Progressives do tend to be Dreamers, and I mean that in a VERY very positive way.

Excellent advice. Rocks have been placed in my birdbath. Thank you.

The Great Animal Rescue Chase is proud to bring you the unique story of a New Zealand couple who refused to let a newborn alpaca be euthanized. Though she was born premature and likely to suffer complications, they believed that she deserved a chance to live. They embarked on a 1,000 mile journey with their fragile outcast. Today she can't quite decide if she belongs to a species of dog or of human, but she knows that she is loved.
By Yuri Wierda of New Zealand
Growlithe was born January 2009 in South Head near Helensville in New Zealand. She was born very premature and blind. We were staying on holiday there and bottle fed her and milked her mum for the initial colostrum. It was unlikely that she would survive on the farm and was going to be euthanised. We pleaded to keep her and as a result she travelled with us 1600 km to the other side of New Zealand – Dunedin. Here we continued to bottle feed her and she started to thrive.
At three months of age, she got very sick and the vet recommended euthanising her. We told him she is a fighter and wanted to give her a chance.
Growlithe Loves the Dogs
A few weeks later, she got better again. When she was 5 months old, she had to stay for a month with friends for a while because my wife was hospitalized. While she was staying with our friends, Growlithe became friends with their dogs and followed them around everywhere – although she did get banned from the inside of their house after she ate their house plants and nibbled on their curtains and leather lounge suite!
Life in the Alpaca Garden
Growlithe is now 2 years old and living happily in her own purpose built paddock with 18 different plants that alpacas love to eat. It is on a bit of a slope so it is easy for her to know where in the paddock she is. She navigates by hearing and by smell. Most people are surprised that she is totally blind because she navigates so well around her paddock. She is very tame and will come running when called and will follow us without the need of a lead.

Thank you!!!!!!
Great story. Such stories renews my faith in human beings. Wish there were more people like you.
Finally a story that makes me cry tears of joy!!
I loved this story and I am so pleased that the people saved her. I'm sure she will love them as much as they love her.
What an unusual experience -- I don't believe I've ever heard of someone beig foster parents to an alpaca; What an fascinating story to experience one of these animals! And what a love she must be! Thanks for taking God's creature and providing a home for her! Too bad you couldn't find a "daddy" alpaca, and have some little growlithes. God speed.
Persistence and love pays great benefits, Growlithe's survival and thriving is great proof.
we need people like this
This couple did exactly what our purpose on this planet is..to act as good stewards of the world we ALL share!!
Wonderful story, thank you so much for sharing!
Awe they're so adorable! I just feel the urge to squash them :) big squashy moment coming on!! Haha thanx for the story, it's awesome what so many people do without want of recognition, though it feel it is our duty to show gratitude and thank them in any way possible! So thank you to Growlithes mom and dad, you guys are stars!! Mwah
So nice!

In what is becoming something of a recurring theme lately for the Cleveland Indians, physically fit-challenged OF Grady Sizemore, who is currently rehabbing his injured knees and back, has hit a setback in his bid to return to the Tribe.
Jordan Bastian tweeted the news from trainer Lonnie Soloff:
Acta & Soloff (trainer) note that Sizemore (back/knees) has slowed down in his rehab. Backed off some running activities last couple weeks.
According to Bastian, Soloff did add that he was still confident Sizemore would contribute in 2012, but he declined to set any kind of definitive time table.
It would have been foolish for the Indians to count on much production from Sizemore, who just hasn't been able to stay healthy over the last several years. But evidently they did just that when they decided to give Sizemore a contract to return to the team. Now both sides must continue to preach patience while keeping fingers crossed that some version of a productive Sizemore can eventually get back on the diamond.

I stayed up to watch the Globes, I thought that her speech was great, she seemed shocked to win and the speech was straight from the heart...everyone except for Taylor was laughing with Adele. I'm pleased that she won and hope that she will sing at the Oscars, she is talented and likeable.
Its also amazing that her sons name hasn't been revealed. This shows that she has some great friends who manage to keep their lips sealed and a manager who doesn't reveal everything as a "source".
Just a note, was the friend the wife of Robbie Williams, she mentioned her name and said they had both just had babies...and she looked a little like his wife..I might be wrong but wondered if anyone else noticed.

Pitch counts: Reason to sound arm alarm or much ado about nothing?

The late-1960s Mets became the first major league team to go from a four-man to a five-man rotation, largely because Tom Seaver determined that he pitched better with an extra day of rest.
