Damien Quotes in London Evening Standard Article
Posted on 13. Sep, 2014 by admin.
The London Evening Standard has published some quotes from Damien in this article about the new album.
"I was playing the biggest venues I'd ever played, and everything was quote-unquote perfect. And everything sort of crumbled and fell apart at that moment," he says. "I became really unhappy, and so that went spiralling down, down, down, where I got to this place where I had everything I thought I wanted and I still wasn't happy. That felt very, I guess, disheartening. So I kind of crashed."
"The reason why it took me so long to record this record was because I kept on starting it and quitting it and starting it and quitting it, so I got nowhere. Everything I'd do I would criticise," he says.
"I met with my management in London and they said to me, 'Do you ever want to make another record?' I said, 'Yeah, but I think I need help, someone who can inspire me to be better'. I said the only person who came to mind was Rick Rubin. But I knew very little about him. All I knew is that he meditated, he had a big beard and that some people called him a guru."
"I sat for a minute and I imagined myself with one more hour on the planet. And I noticed that I didn't care about whether I had sold more records, or less records," he says. "What was most important to me in that moment was wanting to shed whatever mask I'd been wearing so that I could at least be myself in the world, instead of some version of myself that I thought was appropriate."
It also includes some quotes from Rick Rubin, who produced the album:
"I think he was torn. Part of him wanted to be free to express himself and part of him seemed to be stopping the process," Rubin says of Rice's working methods. The producer, who has worked on endless classic albums from the Eighties hip hop of Run DMC to Johnny Cash's American series and Adele's album 21, is known for his hands-off approach. "It took a series of personal breakthroughs for Damien to feel comfortable enough to want to put out new music and all the stress associated with it. He is a highly sensitive artist and man."

First Single to be "I Don't Want to Change You"
Posted on 08. Sep, 2014 by admin.
While "My Favourite Faded Fantasy" was aired tonight by Zane Lowe on BBC Radio 1, it looks like Damien's first single will be "I Don't Want to Change You", which Zane Lowe will also debut on 23 September.
Speaking about the 8-year gap between album releases, Damien says in a press release, "Sometimes you have to step away from what you love in order to learn how to love it again."
There's also confirmation tonight that the new album is produced by Rick Rubin.
"I came to Rick mostly based on what I didn't know about him, rather than what I did," adding "for some reason I just had a feeling that I would feel comfortable being open and being me and being vulnerable with Rick."

Josh Radnor Writes About "O"
Posted on 11. Jul, 2014 by admin.
Josh Radnor, who played Ted on How I Met Your Mother, has written about his memories of falling in love with Damien's album "O".
You can read the full article here, but here's an excerpt:
How to describe that initial encounter? It was certainly a stop-what-you're-doing moment, and that's exactly what I did. I looked up from—oh, I don't know, the coffee maker, the New York Times, my audition sides—and thought: "This… is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard." A sad Irish troubadour's exquisite songs of romantic heartache and pain, how he'd wronged and been wronged, delivered in a startlingly pure, achingly sincere, and elastic voice. It called something forward in me, some heartbroken essential thing. I furiously scribbled down the name: Damien Rice. I needed this music in my life. A quick internet search and a few record store visits (remember those?) revealed that it was available exactly nowhere, its domestic release not scheduled until the following year.

Recipe by The Kitchen at Johnsonville Sausage
"Eggs, sausage, red bell pepper, and cheese are baked in hash brown potato 'cups' for a delicious breakfast that will feed a crowd."
Watch video tips and tricks
12 links
Johnsonville® Original breakfast sausage
3 cups
frozen country style shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
3 tablespoons
butter, melted
1/8 teaspoon
1/8 teaspoon
eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups
shredded 4-cheese Mexican blend cheese
1/4 cup
chopped red bell pepper
chopped fresh chives or green onion
Okay, before I start, I KNOW I made a lot of changes but it was only due to extenuating circumstances and a deadline! I used Italian sausage, crumbled, instead of breakfast sausage. I also shredded my own potatoes, on the suggestion of another reviewer, and added some shredded sweet potato when I realized I didn't have enough potatoes. I doubled the recipe, also, and upon realizing I had no idea where I put my muffin tin, just tossed the entire thing in a casserole dish and called it a day. Found out too late that I had no butter in the house, so I used olive oil instead. I also used green and orange bell pepper because that's all I had, too. Finally, I sprinkled the cheese on top right before I popped it in the oven instead of mixing it with the eggs. I didn't MEAN to make all these substitutions, but the finished product was great regardless! I fully plan on making it again, per the instructions, but if I can do all this and it still comes out fine, then the recipe is definitely a keeper!
ADDENDUM: I made this closer to the original recipe, except I left out the hashbrowns and just made the eggs in my muffin tin. My husband LOVES THEM. They're great for him to throw on an English muffin for a quick, on-the-go breakfast and I can make them in a large batch at the beginning of the week so he can just grab one and go. Keeps getting better!
The hashbrowns didn't crisp for me but the finished product did come out for the most part(I lost 2 due to them falling apart). Overall, not very impressed.
236 Ratings
I followed the recipe exact. I made these for brunch and they were egg-cellent! (Sorry had to!) We loved them. Very handy for breakfast on the go, a brunch or even a snack, too. Be sure to grease the muffin pans good or it will stick. I did have to cook the hash browns a bit longer than stated in the recipe to get a nice crisp to them. I will definitely keep this one handy. Possibilities are endless for mix -ins.
I made these for a weekend breakfast but instead of frozen hash brown potatoes I used 3 medium sized russet potatoes, peeled and grated with the food processor then placed in the colander of a salad spinner and soaked in cool water to remove some of the starch. Empty the water and spin the grated potatoes dry. 2 cups of cheese is WAY too much - there would have been no room for the sausage, peppers and eggs. Bake times were perfect. I have a few left over and think they will make for a quick on the go breakfast snack. Update: I made these again with just a couple of changes that worked well. I used paper cupcake liners, sprayed with cooking spray. I reserved the cheese to just add some to the top at the end of baking time. This way I was able to fit a lot more sausage into each muffin cup. Using the convection setting on my oven really helped to crisp up the potatoes. These reheat very well, perfect for a quick breakfast on the go.
Update: I have tried different potatoes in these. I have used potatoe tots, potato rounds, and hash browns. Tater tots
Work great if you thaw them well and crush them up. I add garlic salt and chopped onion in the potato mixture and fill the tin half full with potatoes. I spray the tins with Pam and then spray the potatoes with Pam before baking. Make sure you push the potatoes down well. After baking fill with your families favorite ingredients. I fill the tin full and they rise up nice without running over. They puff up big but fall down after baking. A pound of tots makes 24-36 muffins depending on you ingredients. After cooling I put two in a zip lock bag and freeze them. It is great grab and go breakfast or after school treat for kids. I keep these in the freezer.
I understand this recipe is an ad for a sausage company. This said, I made with 1 lb. cooked until crisp, drained and crumbled bacon, 3/4 c shredded cheddar, and followed rest of recipe. Absolutely terrific! Will never try it any other way! Thanks for the inspiration, Johnsonville!
Easy and yummy. I used fresh potatoes and 1/2 the cheese as suggested by Baking Nana. Thanks for a tasty recipe. Next time I will use less sausage too - the sausage overpowered a bit for us. These are great reheated!
These truly were amazing. The potatoes were crispy and buttery, and the layers worked really well together. The top was fluffy and the hash browns sweet, with a layer of sausage-goodness in-between. My family is craving this recipe so I'll be making it again and again!

I had 3 3dfx cards and they were all great, greatest drivers of any video card maker. The drivers were always rock solid on the initial release and then later twaked a bit to give huge performance gains. and yes and the 5500 the AA was outstanding My AIw 9700 pro comes close but it's still not quite as good lookingg in the AA department.
Heh... Talk about rose colored glasses. and remebmer the alamo...
*perhaps* you could make a case that the VSA 100 had better 2x or 4x FSAA... Which is really pushing it imo. Both ATi and 3dfx use Rotated Grid/Jittered sample patters. I think 3dfx's were a little different. But Ati's AA is also Gama Corrected. The line is drawn there however. Nothing ever produced touches ATi's 6x FSAA. Which is also about 6x faster than the voodoo5's 4x AA.
What also separates the Two is the VSA 100 had minimal Anisotropic support. which is basically Texture AA in a nutshell. when taken into accound that ATi's AA and AF are virtually never seperated... I just dont think that 3dfx stands a chance. Especially when you consider most 9700pro users have 4x FSAA+16xAF on by default in nearly every game they play.

Analysis: Rick Perry's entrance has transformed GOP race, but big tests coming
Some Texas media observers have decided the primary contest in Perry's favor. Texas Monthly's Paul Burka suggests, "We might as well skip the primary and go straight to the general election." Less parochial handicappers suggest that Perry's most important primary will be in South Carolina, the early contest most like a home state for Perry. [Read More]

August 2, 2015
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) Closing arguments are coming in the second phase of Texas' school finance trial - but a ruling isn't expected until next month.
State District Judge John Dietz declared more than year ago that state funding for public education is inadequate and unfairly distributed among school districts.
The initial decision came after more than 600 school districts statewide sued in response to the Legislature's cutting $5.4 billion in funding to classrooms in 2011. But last year, lawmakers restored more than $3.4 billion while easing high school graduation standards.
Dietz reopened the case three weeks ago to hear evidence on how that might affect his initial decision.
After Friday's closing arguments, Dietz will issue a written ruling on the entire trial after mid-March. That will be appealed to the Texas Supreme Court.

The Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Baily Circus is in town, and this year, they're celebrating the dragon!
You'll still see all of your circus favorities including the classic clowns, acrobats, elephants, tigers and lions.
But this year you'll also see something brand new - the amazing Sphere Act!
Plus, Hans Klose and his wife perform with their handful of dogs and they're a hit with the crowd!
"The thing about the dog act is not everybody has an elephant, or a tiger or even a horse, but most people have a dog so they can relate," says Hans Klose," and a lot of times they tell me they try to go home and teach their dog how to do a somersault."

The Commonwealth
Officials Hope Sensors Provide Some Answers
A dive team this week could place sensors on a pier of the U.S. 68/Kentucky 80 bridge over Kentucky Lake. The sensors could help determine how badly the crossing was damaged last Thursday when a cargo vessel rammed the bridge. The crash knocked out a 322 foot span of the bridge between Marshall County and Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area.
The combined route highway, which runs east-west is now closed indefinitely. The concerns center on the bridge pier at the eastern edge of the impact area. State Transportation Secretary Mike Hancock says it's important to determine if the pier has shifted or whether it is still moving. Hancock says it will take a few weeks to collect and analyze the data

Brian Selby at Signal Hill in St. John's, Nfld.
I'm not sure if you remember my story (REM, May 2008), but I tried riding a motorcycle across Canada, in the middle of winter, in an effort to bring awareness and some donation for research for a condition called 'interstitial cystitis'.
You may also recall that my effort came to an abrupt end at 30 degrees below zero on some 'black ice' near Winnipeg when I became hypothermic. The result was several broken bones and a lot of pain…which seems to amplify when you're over 60 years old.
Well, I wanted to finish what I started …. So feeling sufficiently healed from my broken bones…and damaged pride…. I was able to climb back on the horse that bucked me, and make it to my destination – St. John's, Nfld.
We were able to raise about $10,000, which was administered by the Vancouver General and UBC Hospitals to be directed toward research for a cause and cure for this debilitating ailment. However, as you will note from the photo, I was also trying to get some good PR for our industry (Realtors Care).
I was operating an Internet site at 'ridingforacure.net' but it has just lapsed and I see someone else has picked it up. We did get several hundred hits on this site and many encouraging comments on the blog and at the end of the day I am confident that we were able to 'make a positive difference' for many who suffer from this condition.
I was hoping that you could find a little space in the upcoming edition of REM so that I could put a 'positive end' to my tragic wipe out last year.

Incognito now supports Teknovus' EPON platform
Incognito Software said its provisioning offerings are now interoperable with Teknovus' EPON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network) platform.
Teknovus is a provider of EPON chips for the development of triple-play services in FTTx broadband access networks. Incognito said its Broadband Command Center has now been proven to work within an EPON framework, opening up new avenues for cable operators that are looking to deploy their devices over FTTx access networks.
"Incognito's Broadband Command Center's ability to provision devices over FTTx access networks empowers cable operators to further improve services and increase revenues," said Chris Busch, vice president of broadband technologies for Incognito Software. "FTTx technology addresses dedicated subscriber bandwidth demands, converged IP services deployments, and subscriber density challenges in the access network. Ensuring existing BCC device provisioning meets these requirements is important for our customers."
The two companies are demonstrating their combined platform at the CableLabs Summer Conference in Keystone, Colo.
Last week, Incognito announced its Broadband Command Center 5.5 has support in place for DOCSIS 3.0 networks.

New Extremophilic Lipases and Esterases from Metagenomics
Current Protein & Peptide Science,
15(5): 445-455.

Lipolytic enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of ester bonds in the presence of water. In media with low water content or in organic solvents, they can catalyze synthetic reactions such as esterification and transesterification. Lipases and esterases, in particular those from extremophilic origin, are robust enzymes, functional under the harsh conditions of industrial processes owing to their inherent thermostability and resistance towards organic solvents, which combined with their high chemo-, regio- and enantioselectivity make them very attractive biocatalysts for a variety of industrial applications. Likewise, enzymes from extremophile sources can provide additional features such as activity at extreme temperatures, extreme pH values or high salinity levels, which could be interesting for certain purposes. New lipases and esterases have traditionally been discovered by the isolation of microbial strains producing lipolytic activity. The Genome Projects Era allowed genome mining, exploiting homology with known lipases and esterases, to be used in the search for new enzymes. The Metagenomic Era meant a step forward in this field with the study of the metagenome, the pool of genomes in an environmental microbial community. Current molecular biology techniques make it possible to construct total environmental DNA libraries, including the genomes of unculturable organisms, opening a new window to a vast field of unknown enzymes with new and unique properties. Here, we review the latest advances and findings from research into new extremophilic lipases and esterases, using metagenomic approaches, and their potential industrial and biotechnological applications.
Extremophiles, industrial biocatalysts, lipases and esterases, lipolytic enzymes classification, metagenomics, nonculturable microorganisms.

Brandi Burkhardt (NBC)
Broadway actress Brandi Burkhardt played the memorable mermaid and will soon be popping up on the big screen in a very different role. She has been cast in a small part in the hotly anticipated new Hollywood flick Confessions of a Shopaholic. The film is based on the best-selling novel by Sophie Kinsella which follows the story of a young journalist in New York City nourishing an addiction to shopping and her love for a rich entrepreneur. It stars the adorable Isla Fisher, Hugh Dancey, Joan Cusack and John Lithgow. Currently filming, the movie is expected to hit theaters nationwide by Valentine's Day of next year.
Burkhardt arrived on Passions after several years on the pageant circuit, much like fellow actress and one-time Miss America, Kelli McCarty (Beth Wallace). She was Miss Maryland Teen USA in 1997 and Miss New York in 1999. The competitions also served to show off her singing talents, eventually landing her work on Broadway, most notably in Jekyll & Hyde - Resurrection. Since leaving the loopy land of Harmony behind, she has been very busy on stages around the country. She also reunited with fellow Passions cast member Eric Martsolf (Ethan Winthrop) for a production of the musical Li'L Abner (see our article) as well as appearing in an episode of Boston Legal.

Graham Charleston Reporting
A Writer's Journal
That was hilarious, Charles!
Seems Sound to me!
Aloha Saturday from Honolulu
Comfort Spiral

XDDD al ll the wordsmith are handsome. If not, writing makes him that way! ;)
Fantastic marketing tool! :)
It's absolutely true, I weigh less now than I did when I started reading.
Charles, you have succeeded sufficiently in the BS Factor (a blood antigen) that you are now qualified to run for president.
i believe... hallelujah... i believe! ;)
Alex, glad you enjoyed.
Cloudia, me too
Deka, I know it worked that way for me. :)
Bernard, I hope so!
David J., Yes, you are positively svelte!
Snowbrush, I don't know. There are some true pros in the world today.
Laughingwolf, more to come!
Strange but true :)
Very imaginative, Charles, enjoyed it! I believe certain kinds of books, horror and dark fantasy for instance, can have an effect on the body's metabolism.
I don't really need to lose much weight--anything psychoactive in the ingesting of the tales?
Keith, glad you enjoyed.
Lisa, thanks for your testimonial. :)
Prashant, that could be true.
Mark, stay tuned for further reports from the intrepid Graham Charleston.
methinks this should wake up a few of your almost-readers :D
it was a fun read, but it did make me wonder.
i think when a reader is much into a particular book (and a particular style of living), it does have an effect on the reader's life.
if you read a book about someone who's a great dancer for example you may (or may not) catch yourself trying some of the movements.
Very clever! How can anyone resist?
Laughingwolf, I hope it works!
Szelsofa, you're probably right on that. I do. Let's hope folks reading the Talera cycle don't try some of the stunts. :)
Elaine, I am almost sure they won't be able to.
Travis Cody, :0
I'll have to read them, but I'm afraid to, I've already lost 30 pounds in anticipation.
Oscar, another testimonial. Wow, I'm good. :)
Charles- you are incredibly silly...
Jodi, so I'm incredible, you are saying. Yes indeed! I agree with that.
Not so far-fetched either.
I believe every word of it. Thanks for the enlightenment. I'm assuming that repeated readings multiply the effect. Or... are multiple purchases of the series required?
Patti, not in the least! :)
Richard R., multiple personal purchases are unneccessary, as I understand it, but the effect is magnified if a set is purchases as a gift for someone else who wants to shed a few pounds.
pretty funny. will you pay my tailor to take up my clothes?
Sage. They will magically take themselves in if you read Killing trail by C. Gramlich. :)

Chancellors and Presidents of the University of Wisconsin-Madison
The University Archives contains records from the administrations of all of the chancellors/presidents through David Ward, except for John Lathrop, Henry Barnard, and John Twombly. The Archives includes oral history interviews with E. B. Fred, Fred Harrington, Robert Clodius, Robben Fleming, William Sewell, Bryant Kearl, Edwin Young, Glenn Pound, Irving Shain, Bernard Cohen, Donna Shalala, David Ward, and John Wiley. In addition the Archives contains general subject files from the Chancellor's Office and many other materials related to the chancellors and presidents.
See Presidents of the University of Wisconsin System for information on the leaders of UW System, beginning in 1971.
John Hiram Lathrop
Henry Barnard
| John Whelan Sterling
Executive officer, 1861-1867
John Sterling was born on July 17, 1816, in Wyoming County, Pennsylvania. He graduated with honors from the College of New Jersey (later Princeton) in 1840, and in 1844 graduated from the theological seminary there and was ordained as a Presbyterian minister. In 1846 Sterling moved to Wisconsin and accepted the position of professor of mathematics in Carroll College. In February 1849 Sterling opened the preparatory department for the new University of Wisconsin. When the university officially opened in August of that year, Sterling and Chancellor Lathrop were the only faculty. From the resignation of Henry Barnard in January 1861 to the inauguration of Paul Chadbourne in 1867, Sterling served as chief executive of the university although his official title was Dean of Faculty and Vice Chancellor (starting in 1865). Due to the Civil War and bad financial straits, the University's fortunes were at a low during this period, and no one pushed to hire an actual chancellor until 1867. When Chadbourne became president, Sterling returned to teaching mathematics and other subjects and continued to do so until his sudden death in Madison on March 9, 1885. Because of his extensive involvement in its development, Sterling was fondly referred to as the "Father of the University."

Chancellor, 2001- 2008
John Wiley assumed the office of chancellor on Jan. 1, 2001. Wiley was born on March 23, 1942 , in Nashville, Tennessee . He received a BS (1964) from Indiana University and MS (1965) and PhD (1968) degrees in physics from the University of Wisconsin . Wiley worked for Bell Telephone Laboratories from 1968 to 1974 then spent a year at the Max Planck Institute in Stuttgart , Germany. Wiley joined the UW-Madison faculty in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in August 1975. From 1982 to 1986, he chaired the Materials Science Program, a graduate-level, interdepartmental-committee program for masters and doctoral degrees. From 1986 to 1989, Wiley served as associate dean for research in the College of Engineering, and from 1989 to 1994 he was dean of the Graduate School and the university's senior research officer. From 1994-2000, he served as the university's provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs. On December 7, 2007, Wiley announced that would step down as Chancellor at the end of August 2008. For more complete information on Chancellor Wiley, see this site.
| Carolyn Arthur "Biddy" Martin
Chancellor, 2008- 2011
On June 5, 2008, the Board of Regents officially appointed Biddy Martin as the next Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, effective September 1, 2008. Born in 1951, Martin grew up near Lynchburg, Virginia, and received her BA degree from the College of William and Mary (1973). She also holds an MA from Middlebury College, and the PhD in German Literature from UW-Madison (1985). Martin joined the faculty at Cornell University in 1984 and in 1991 was promoted to Associate Professor in the Department of German Studies with a joint appointment in the Women's Studies Program. She served as chair of the Department of German Studies from 1994-1997 and was promoted to full professor in 1997. In 1996 she became a Senior Associate Dean in the College of Arts and Sciences., and from July 1, 2000 until her appointment at Madison, Martin served as Provost at Cornell. On June 14, 2011, Martin announced that she would be leaving UW-Madison later in the summer to assume the presidency of Amherst College. For more information on Chancellor Martin, see the Chancellor's web site.
David Ward
On June 29, 2011, UW System President Kevin Reilly announced that David Ward would return to campus as interim chancellor following the departure of Biddy Martin. Ward will take office on July 18, 2011. It is expected that Ward will serve for approximately one year while a search is conducted to replace Chancellor Martin.
*A note about the administrative history of the University of Wisconsin-Madison: From its founding in 1848 until 1955, there was only one campus of the University of Wisconsin. During the first half of the twentieth-century, however, the University taught extension courses in cities throughout the state and had varying numbers of extension centers run by the University Extension Division. The state of Wisconsin also had a separate system of state Normal Schools (later Teachers Colleges then Wisconsin State Colleges then Wisconsin State Universities). In 1955 the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee was created by merging the University of Wisconsin Extension Center in Milwaukee with the Wisconsin State College in Milwaukee (the law creating the new campus was passed in 1955; the first classes were held in the fall of 1956). UW-M, as it quickly became known, had a provost as chief academic officer. In 1963/64 President Harrington decided that the University of Wisconsin had grown too large for its management structure and needed a central administration plus administrations for the campuses at Madison, Milwaukee, and the University Centers (two-year colleges which were outgrowths of the extension centers, now called UW Colleges). There were nine University Centers at this time, and this restructuring removed them from extension and provided one chancellor for the combined centers. The people in charge of the three campuses were originally called provosts, which was the title already in place at Milwaukee, but in 1965 their titles were changed to chancellor. The actual distinctions between the central administration and the individual campus administrations remained murky for some time. In 1969 the four-year campuses of the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay and Parkside (Racine/Kenosha area) were created. In 1971, after long years of trying and much controversy, the legislature created the University of Wisconsin System by combining the University of Wisconsin (Madison, Milwaukee, Green Bay, Parkside, University Centers, and Extension) with the nine Wisconsin State Universities (Eau Claire, La Crosse, Oshkosh, Platteville, River Falls, Stevens Point, Stout, Superior, and Whitewater). The merger was not completed until 1974, but from 1971 on there was a president of the University of Wisconsin System and chancellors for the individual campuses. UW-Madison and UW-Milwaukee are the only Ph.D. granting institutions in the system.
(1) In January 1965, the three provosts Robben Fleming (Madison), J. Martin Klotsche (Milwaukee), and Lorenz Adolfson (University Centers) were made chancellors of their respective campuses.

growth in petroleum consumption was approximately matched by growth in production. Between 1960 and 1973 petroleum production in the "other developing" region2 grew at an annual rate of nearly 10 percent, from increased output in the Persian Gulf area and from such major new producers as Libya, Nigeria, and Algeria.
It is no accident that the energy deficits of the Western industrial countries were met entirely from increased oil imports and that trade in coal and natural gas remained relatively small. This reflects the low transportation cost of oil. During the 1960s this cost fell further as larger and larger tankers were brought into service. The principal flow of energy products continued to be from the Persian Gulf to Western Europe, but exports to the United States and to Japan had an even larger percentage growth.
Table 10–2 illustrates the development of electricity production from 1960 to 1973. Except in the "other developing" region, electricity grew more rapidly than primary energy, with the highest growth rates occurring in the "other developed" and communist regions. For the world as a whole, electricity consumption grew nearly 50 percent more than primary energy consumption. With the same exception, the share of hydroelectric power dropped everywhere. Nuclear power became significant, particularly in the United States and Western Europe, but the share of fossil fuels (oil and coal) also rose. In 1973 three fourths of the world's electricity was generated from fossil fuels.
Table 10–1 also shows that the growth rate of primary energy consumption varied considerably among the five regions. It was lowest in the United States, and only slightly higher in the communist countries. The highest growth rate was recorded in the "other developed" region, which includes Japan; the "other developing" regions and Western Europe were also well above the world average growth rate. As a result of these disparities, the share of the United States in total world consumption fell from nearly 34 percent to nearly 30 percent, and that of the communist countries from about 30 percent to about 27 percent. Western Europe's share increased slightly, and the shares of the remaining two regions went up considerably. However, the United States remained the world's largest energy user, even compared with the aggregated blocs of countries in Table 10–1.
There was even more variation in the growth rates of energy production. The rate was highest for the "other developing" region, which includes the principal petroleum exporting countries; it was also substantial in the "other developed" region, due mostly to Canada. The other three areas were all below the world average growth rate. In the United States the growth rate of production was 3.1 percent, compared to one for consumption of 4.1 percent. In the communist countries production and

Excellent vision and plays smart; could be an NHL star for the next 15 years

He plays bigger than his 5-foot-10.5, 186-pound frame; the best player in the draft
3. Tampa Bay - Nathan MacKinnon, C, Halifax (QMJHL)
Awesome skater with a tremendous work ethic; he'll be an elite player
4. Nashville - Hunter Shinkaruk, C/LW, Medicine Hat (WHL)
Predators need goals, so this speedy forward with an outstanding shot would be a perfect pick
5. Carolina - Darnell Nurse, D, Sault Ste. Marie (OHL)

One of the best forwards in the draft, he put up solid numbers on a rebuilding squad this season
11. Phoenix - Valeri Nichushkin, RW, Chelyabinsk (RUS)
Big Russian who uses his size and skill to score; reminiscent of a young Jordan Staal
12. Dallas - Anthony Mantha, RW, Val-d'Or (QMJHL)
Big power forward talented offensively; has NHL-ready size and great hands
13. Detroit - Elias Lindholm, C, Brynas (SWE)

16. Columbus (from NY Rangers) - Mirco Mueller, D, Everett (WHL)
Big Swiss blueliner was mentored this season by Blue Jackets prospect Ryan Murray

19. NY Islanders - Adam Erne, LW, Quebec (QMJHL)
Shows great speed and will to win; makes things happen almost every shift

It's hard to overlook this massive (6-5.25, 221) Russian-born blue-line presence
21. Toronto - Kerby Rychel, LW, Windsor (OHL)
Scoring 40 goals this season is pretty good for tough prodigy -- dad Warren is Stanley Cup champion
22. Calgary (from St. Louis) - Joshua Morrissey, D, Prince Albert (WHL)
Calgary native has lots of offensive upside
23. San Jose - Ian McCoshen, D, Waterloo (USHL)
Solid season for Waterloo; one of the best American-born players in this year's draft
24. Columbus (from Los Angeles) - Bo Horvat, C, London (OHL)

Needs to get bigger, but had a tremendous season with 120 points in 70 games
26. Montreal - Jordan Subban, D, Belleville (OHL)
Can't help but think older brother P.K. has his fingerprints on this selection
27. Boston - JT Compher, LW, USA U-18 (USHL)
Lots of upside to this highly skilled American-born forward
28. Anaheim - Andre Burakovsky, LW, Malmo (SWE-2)

NORTHWOOD, Iowa (AP) - A new police officer has lost his job in northern Iowa because of an old assault charge.
The Mason City Globe Gazette reports that Mohamed Mohamed submitted his resignation Thursday to officials in Northwood.
Northwood Police Chief Shayne Hoch says the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy had notified the city that Mohamed was ineligible because of the misdemeanor charge.
Hoch says the charge dates back about 10 years and says Mohamed was not convicted.
Mohamed began working for the Northwood department on Oct. 14.

Mimi Faust got in Ariane Davis' face after K.Michelle smacked her with some flowers on "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" this week!
Shay runs into Erica Dixon
Like any good friend, DJ Traci Steele was trying to get her girl Shay's mind off of all the confusion with Lil Scrappy. She thought bring her along as a special guest at a fashion show she was hosting would be just the fabulous time that Shay needed.
Shay was having a great time in the front row until the finale until Erica Dixon sauntered down the runway to huge applause. Shay's face went from a huge smile to being cracked all over the floor.
Erica owned the room and paid Shay no mind. Meanwhile, all Shay could do was mug and contort like a toddler that was ready to go home. This would have been a great opportunity for Shay to show that she can be mature in an uncomfortable situation. Clearly, she opted not to do that.

In 1961, Chevrolet introduced the new "W" engine, an enlarged and truly performance version of the 348-CID engine that had gone before. The 409 was the stuff of legends and was available in big bodied Chevys from 1961 through early 1965 when it was replaced by the first of the Mark IV big-blocks. Immortalized by the Beach Boys, who created the song "409" to sing its praises, the 409 was true to the hype of the car offered in a number of horsepower levels and with camshafts and carburetors appropriate for the ponies it generated.

In the almost deserted dining area of Bahura Resort, 20 minutes from Dumaguete City in Negros Oriental, Kyrsty Alde stares alone at a whiteboard filled with index cards. The cards were sign-up forms for the one-on-one consultation sessions with the mentors of the 2012 Elements Singing/Songwriting Camp.
It is dinnertime. With the sessions officially over, everybody is celebrating on the beachfront maybe a hundred feet away.
Kyrsty was on her way to get coffee candy but stopped at the whiteboard that summarized the past four days.
RadioRepublic's Twinky Lagdameo and I approach her.
"Are you okay?" I ask.
She snaps out of her reverie and breaks into a bright smile. "Tapos na po e… Mami-miss ko po ito."
She tells us how much she learned, how grateful she is to her campmates and mentors, the questions she still has, and how much fun she had. Her smile never breaks but her eyes slowly well up.
Her life will never be the same, she says.
She hugs Twinky and me and makes her way back to the party.
Life changing? Yeah, right
Many people have said 7101 Music Nation's The Elements Singing/Songwriting Camp, which started only three years ago, is personally life-changing.
I admit I was like, "Oh, sure it is."
The camp is the collective brainchild of Tao Corporation president Julio "Jun" Sy, maestro Ryan Cayabyab and Lagdameo. The workshop was designed specifically to encourage and help develop young musicians with original songs.

In fact, the all-OPM online radio site RadioRepublic.ph was created in part to give the campers a venue in which to air their original songs.
Undoubtedly a great endeavor, the camp was also a boon for the local music industry.
But life changing?
Mentored by rock 'stars' and music 'legends'
The first of the four-day workshop was only halfway done but I found myself screaming my head off laughing because of host/moderator Jungee Marcelo's wit. His ice-breaking exercises alone were both hilarious and musical. As moderator, he gently ribbed the campers ("You… Best In Sando!") and set the tone for the activities.
The campers were duly educated on topics such as music theory, lyric and melody writing, arranging, the science behind vocal technique, music publishing and getting started in the music business, to name a few.

They were divided into teams mentored by Raimund Marasigan, Ebe Dancel, Trina Belamide, Chito Miranda, Jonathan Manalo, Aia De Leon, Aiza Seguerra, Noel Cabangon, Mike Villegas, Gabby Alipe, Gloc-9, Joey Ayala and Jay Durias (notice the diversity of perspectives). Ogie Alcasid was there to support the campers, too, as were many other big names. (See if you can spot them in the grad pic.)
The mentors themselves took down notes: everybody became a student. There were no "stars."
All musical genres welcome
Maestro Ryan Cayabyab, like all the teachers you loved, constantly reminded the 60 campers (out of 1,000 applicants from around the country) that any genre of music or technique they employed was welcome. What mattered was the excellent original songs they wrote that got them in the camp in the first place.
There was Primy Cane and her lusty intelligent blues that was "unfit" for a local Valentine's Day song competition. Kai Honasan played ukulele and kazoo and sang about a know-it-all. Janine Liao shifted from jazz piano to violin easily. Catcho Ferrero's tune was the one I was humming on the flight back to Manila.

While a few still had not escaped stylistic influences (sounding like Up Dharma Down's Armi Millare or Jason Mraz, for instance), most of campers had original melodic and lyrical ideas.
I was sharing a table with Joey Ayala, the master of both green-minded wit and profound wisdom, and I was in tears from all his wisecracks. But as each camper took the stage, we fell silent, pleasantly waylaid by a turn of phrase or an unpredictable chord shift, and everybody's gift for melody and hooks.
A comatose industry
In another time, before radio and television in general succumbed to the commercial appeal of cheap jokes and old hits, I daresay most of the campers' songs would be hits. They are that good.
Filipino music is far from dead but the industry is, as Joey Ayala jokingly but succinctly remarked, comatose.

The songwriters can't be faulted; there was no shortage of creativity from this year's campers... or the previous two Elements Camps. Record labels and mainstream media (yes, they still wield influence whether you, or they, admit it or not) have become complacent.
Tears of joy
Which is the opposite of everything Kyrsty Alde went through the past four days.
As she puts it, "Nakukwento ko man po yung mga activities na ginawa (but) I can never explain the experience itself. Di naman po talaga ako iyakin. Minsan lang talaga magka-tears of joy, and it's really different."
I wasn't a camper or a mentor. Yet as I write this, I am itching to grab my instruments and write music or revisit ideas that I had long dismissed--encouraged by the talent, generosity, and humility shared by everyone younger and older than me.
Tears of joy… hand me that box of tissue now.

Dance Moms' 11-year-old Maddie Ziegler has caught fans' attention with her remarkable performance in the music video for Sia Furler's "Chandelier." With over 87 million views on YouTube, the hit video has not only received critical acclaim, but has managed to mesmerize the youngest of viewers. In other words, Ziegler isn't the only kid breaking it down.
Watch as these adorably cute little kids try to imitate and create their own choreography to Sia's lead single. Warning: Their moves don't lie.
1. This girl wants to nix the seriousness and have fun.
2. The pink wig says it all.
3. Her moody lighting is a bit thrown off by the pink dress, but she still kills it.

This is the most interesting place to dine. Food is good, service ok, but hours to eat in change daily. Getting earlier every time I visit. Wonder when they will be closing the doors.

Stroke is a medical emergency. It is also the nation's fourth-leading killer and the number one cause of serious disability. If you or someone you know is experiencing one or more of the following symptoms, call 911 immediately. Seeking treatment within the first three hours of a stroke can significantly reduce life-threatening or long-term complications. Warning signs include:
Less than five percent of those who suffer from a stroke act fast enough to be eligible for a tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) drug. When administered within the first three hours of the onset of stroke, tPAs can help dissolve clots that may be blocking blood flow to the heart or brain. Act FAST. Don't wait.
If you would like to receive a FREE stroke warning signs magnet, please call Amy Bradley at (814) 534-3121 or email email@example.com
