After virtually every shooting attack in which a gunman took the lives of innocents in this country, the instinct of the mainstream media and the liberal chattering classes has always been to look for a reason to blame conservatives. Whether it was the attempted assassination of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords or the Aurora, Colorado movie theater tragedy, the initial assumption by many has been that the violence was the result of incitement or direct involvement by members of the Tea Party movement or other conservative groups. In each instance, the accusations or insinuations have had to be quickly, though often grudgingly, withdrawn when the shooter turned out to be either mentally deranged or devoid of political intent. That leaves us wondering what those who have been so quick to use these tragedies as political soapboxes to denounce conservatives or to promote liberal patent nostrums will say after today's incident in Washington.
Only the heroism of a security guard who was wounded prevented the shooting attack at the Family Research Council, a Washington think tank devoted to promoting social conservatism, from turning into a massacre. The shooter who barged into the group's headquarters expressed disagreement with their policies and began shooting. Fortunately, the guard was able to disarm the perpetrator before he could do more harm. His avowal to police that he was there to oppose the FRC's stands makes it clear that this is an open and shut case of domestic terrorism. The fact that he was carrying a bag from a Chick-fil-A restaurant — the chain that has come under intense fire from left-wingers because of its founder's public opposition to gay marriage — should cause those who have been working overtime to demonize conservatives to do the same sort of soul-searching liberals ask the right to perform because of gun violence.
Let's specify that blaming the act of this individual on those activists and writers who have publicly opposed the Family Research Council's stands is simply wrong. Debate is integral to democracy and it is just as much of a mistake to blame all liberals for the violence of a single leftist as it is to blame all on the right for anything done in their name but without their consent.
But liberals who have often jumped to the conclusion that all Tea Partiers are violent racists because of stray comments from extremists need to remember that such tactics cut both ways. Those who have repeatedly cautioned conservatives to mind their tongues and be careful about using language that would delegitimize their opponents now must think about what they have been saying in recent weeks and months about the so-called "war on women" or supporters of Chick-fil-A. If they thought violent rhetoric emanating from the right was a problem that could be linked to violence, then they must understand that incitement against conservatives is just as noxious. That is all the more true because almost all of the accusations of right-wing involvement in violence have been proven false while the Washington gunman's statements make it clear that he was motivated by left-wing politics.
Civility is important and the need to speak with respect for one's opponents and their positions is a lesson that both sides of our great political divide should heed. But as we learned today, it is not one that should be limited to just the right.

Hello Sailor! Gay Life at sea exhibition
Date: 22 March 2011
The exhibition Hello Sailor! Gay Life at sea, is becoming even more mobile. It's sailing off, - well, flying - to Halifax Nova Scotia, to open in May 2011. The exhibition was co-curated by CeMoRe Reseach Fellow Jo Stanley for Merseyside Maritime Museum. It's the first in the world to deal with the mobilities of LGBT seafarers - professional voyagers who appropriated merchant ships as transgressive and highly supportive queer spaces.See Canada's take on it at http://thechronicleherald.ca/ArtsLife/1232686.html
Jo is proposing a paper about the exhibition's travels and re-locations for Transport and Mobility on Display, the 9th conference of the International Association for the History of Transport, Traffic and Mobility in Berlin in October 2011. http://t2m.org/conferences/berlin-2011/

Garlic Powder vs. Fresh Garlic
To my taste, most dishes are better with powder than with fresh. I've tried it across a number of dishes (sautes, braises, etc.), and it's best, in my view.
In addition, I've blind taste-tested with over 20 friends and they agree that powder is better.
Better dissolution, less chance for burning, less hassle.

Social Innovation Fund Awards $11.3 Million Grant to Expand Successful LISC Education and Career Services Initiative
The Corporation for National and Community Service Social Innovation Fund (SIF) has awarded an $11.3 million grant to Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) to expand education and career services for low-income people.
Approximately 36 million U.S. adults between the ages of 16 and 65 have low literacy skills, and 62 million (30 percent) have low "numeracy" skills—they lack the basic education needed to be successful for many jobs. These numbers are even higher among unemployed workers: 23 percent of unemployed adults have low literacy skills, and 42 percent have low numeracy skills.
With the support of an earlier $21 million grant awarded over five years from the SIF beginning in 2010, LISC developed an approach to help stabilize low-income families by engaging them in job training and placement, benefits counseling, and intensive, ongoing financial coaching. LISC now has a network of more than 75 Financial Opportunity Centers across the country that helps low-income individuals find jobs and stabilize their finances.

AmeriCorps member helping others navigate challenges he faced
Nick Noble is currently serving his second 450 hour AmeriCorps term of service with the Utah Conservation Corps' (UCC) inclusive crew. The inclusive crew was established in 2007 by AmeriCorps member Andy Zimmer and UCC assistant director Kate Stephens to engage persons of all abilities in environmental stewardship projects.
Last summer Noble, who has a significant visual impairment, served his first term on a UCC trail crew in High Uintas Wilderness navigating difficult terrain and taking on new and challenging conservation service work. This crew reduced fuels on 5.75 acres and completed heavy maintenance on almost a mile of popular trail.
While he is physically able to work on any UCC crew, this summer Noble applied specifically to the inclusive crew survey project so that he could help crew members with disabilities successfully navigate the new challenges of conservation crew work. He originally applied to be a crew member this summer with the intention of pursuing crew leadership next summer. Instead, UCC staff encouraged him to be a crew leader and he stepped up confidently into this role.

Anthony Bonner Bids Adieu to Vashon
Categories: Follow That Story, Sports
|Jennifer Silverberg
|Bonner in the gym last year.
Bonner quit substitute teaching at Vashon in December and spent his last day as the Wolverines' coach on Monday.
Assistant principal Marvin Talley, a former teacher and coach at Riverview Gardens High School, took over Tuesday.
"As much as I love those boys, and that school, and as [much as] I've been dedicated, I knew going in that this wasn't a five- or ten-year deal for me," Bonner says. "I proved I could do it, but there's much more to me to give than I was allowed to do at Vashon High School."
Bonner says he's working as an independent contractor for the Knicks at the moment -- making appearances at corporate events, basketball camps and games. He says he was forced to step down at Vashon before season's end (in March) because the Knicks can call him on a moment's notice to show up in New York. Bonner played two seasons for the Knicks in the mid-1990s.
Bonner says he is also looking at a coaching opportunity in the NBA Development League. "They have sixteen teams right now but are looking to start teams in four new markets."
Bonner leaves the Wolverines during the first year in which he had his "own" team. He took over three years ago after RFT revealed a decade's worth of cheating at Vashon under former coach Floyd Irons.
Afterward, the school had to hand over three state championship trophies and five seasons' worth of games. Bonner was picked to bring about change in the program.
"A lot of coaches said they wouldn't even think of applying for the job," Soldan International Studies High School boys' basketball coach Justin Tatum told RFT last year. "But Bonner is a strong guy, mentally and physically. He wasn't going to let anything get to him."
Vashon is 8-5 this season.
Bonner told me today that the career move may still give him the opportunity to continue training some Vashon students -- i.e., those shooting for the NBA.

EAST GREENWICHŌĆöOne game at a time.
ItŌĆÖs about as big of a clich├® as there is in sports but for the East Greenwich boys lacrosse team itŌĆÖs the only thing it can do at this point in the season.
ŌĆ£As long as thereŌĆÖs continued improvement,ŌĆØ EG boys lacrosse coach Brian Trapani adds as a caveat. ŌĆ£Are we doing things better today than we did yesterday?
ŌĆ£Today everyone got a good amount of playing time so the team grows in that way. We got some shots, cleared the ball after some weak clears early onŌĆ"we did a good job moving the ball on offense so itŌĆÖs an improvement.ŌĆØ
NEWPORTŌĆōThe hits just keep on coming for the Narragansett baseball team.
The Mariners battered their way to a fifth consecutive victory Monday, putting a 9-4 beating on Rogers at Cardines Field.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖve been on a roll offensively,ŌĆØ Narragansett coach Keith Vellone said. ŌĆ£We came out, got two in the first and just kept rolling from there.
ŌĆ£I give the kids a lot of credit. They picked up where we left off in the previous game.ŌĆØ
WEST WARWICK ŌĆö The regular season is about finding an identity which will carry you through the playoffs.
Monday afternoon the West Warwick baseball team took a big step toward finding an identity, while defending Division II-South champion Prout is still trying to find its footing with a young group of players.
WAKEFIELDŌĆöAfter a disappointing loss in their season opener the Prout baseball team bounced back with an 11-1 victory over Tiverton in five innings Saturday.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs a good day for Prout,ŌĆØ said Crusaders coach Mike LaBarbera. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre going to hit, itŌĆÖs no secretŌĆ" Certainly, a couple things didnŌĆÖt go TivertonŌĆÖs way. WeŌĆÖre not as good as the result today and they certainly arenŌĆÖt as bad.ŌĆØ
By the end of the game they were clicking but it was a sloppy start for the Prout bats.
SOUTH KINGSTOWNŌĆöIf the Prout girls lacrosse team is going to secure its first winning season in Division I junior Abby Lyons is going to be a big part of it.
Through three league games Lyons has 10 goals but Saturday against neighboring South Kingstown she had her best scoring outburst of the season.
The junior center netted five goals ŌĆō four of which came in the first half ŌĆō as the Crusaders (3-2, 2-1 Division I-South) downed the Rebels (1-2, 1-2 D-I South) 11-7 Saturday.
WAKEFIELDŌĆöThe softball season may be just over three weeks old but the contenders in Division II-South are beginning to make themselves apparent.
As expected, everyone is chasing East Greenwich (5-1, 5-0 D-II South) so far but Monday afternoon West Warwick (3-1, 3-1 D-II South) made a statement that itŌĆÖs at the top of that next tier along with Pilgrim (4-1, 3-1 D-II South).
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs looking like itŌĆÖs going to pan out that way,ŌĆØ West Warwick coach Brian Palazzo said. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs looking like itŌĆÖs going to be one of the three of us; either East Greenwich, Pilgrim or us.ŌĆØ
NARRAGANSETTŌĆöSix games into the season the Narragansett softball team has yet to be tested in Division III and at this point itŌĆÖs questionable whether or not that challenge will ever come.
Having faced every team in D-III so far ŌĆō except Block Island and Shea ŌĆō the Mariners have rolled over their opposition by a combined 73-14 this season.
The games may not have been competitive so far but after the season the Mariners had last year, theyŌĆÖll take it.

Toddler is found wandering outside
Boy's mother called police looking for him
A two-year-old boy was found wandering near a bookstore on Ayers Street early Sunday by a passerby.
The passerby, who spotted the child about 5 a.m., took him to a nearby convenience store and called police, said Corpus Christi police Capt. Robert Bridge.
The toddler, who was wearing only a diaper, was not hurt.
Police went door-to-door in neighborhoods around that area until the boy's 23-year-old mother contacted authorities. Bridge said police are still unsure how the child got out of his home in the 2800 block of Enterprise Court and made his way more than a quarter-mile to the 2500 block of Ayers Street across from the Del Mar College East campus. Child Protective Services also is investigating the incident.
No charges have been filed.
On Nov. 2, a toddler in Portland, also 2, died after he wandered from his home and was hit by an 18-wheeler.

August 26, 2010 – Coral Gables – It was the early 1990s, and an emerging area of law known as therapeutic jurisprudence was gaining steam. Legal scholars around the country began using the term with regularity, applying it to criminal, family, juvenile, and other areas of law. But few attorneys were as knowledgeable about or adept at applying the term as Bruce J. Winick. And for good reason.
A University of Miami law professor with a passion for righting wrongs, Winick co-founded therapeutic jurisprudence, which studies the effects of law and the legal system on the behavior, emotions, and mental health of people. He grew passionate about the subject, writing about it in books and journal articles and attending numerous conferences where, in his trademark voice that often made even the most difficult legal terms understandable, he spoke on the subject.
Winick, a New York University School of Law graduate and fervent advocate of social justice during a spectacular legal career that spanned the courtrooms of New York and the editorial boards of some of the legal profession's most prestigious publications, died early Thursday from complications of cancer. He was 65.
"A giant in the legal community" is how UM President Donna E. Shalala described Winick. (Read her public statement).
"Bruce Winick's scholarly and advocacy work in therapeutic jurisprudence was central to the development of the field – a field that focuses on human dignity and worth," said UM School of Law Dean Patricia D. White. "This will remain a permanent part of his legacy. Beyond his work he will be remembered as having served as a model for dealing with life's difficulties with remarkable courage, grace, and optimism."
Winick's extensive work in the area of mental health law resulted in UM establishing the nation's first Therapeutic Jurisprudence Center, which he directed. Dedicated last year during a ceremony attended by Winick and Florida Supreme Court Justice Barbara Pariente, the center was Winick's dream and continues to play a significant role in identifying the practical insights of law and psychology.
Winick was known for fighting for other legal causes as well. With UM law colleague Bernard Perlmutter, he helped draft litigation that was filed in the Fourth District Court of Appeal and Florida Supreme Court and was instrumental in the subsequent abolishment of the indiscriminate use of restraints on children in juvenile courtrooms.
He argued the case that declared the New York death penalty unconstitutional in 1973.
"To what extent has the death penalty contributed to the violent nature of our society, and in particular, to the rising tide of juvenile violence? As Justice Brandeis reminds us, government is the great teacher. It teaches by example," Winick once wrote in the fall 1998 issue of Miami magazine. "This is how our children learn, through what psychology calls modeling. When our government justifies the taking of life, it legitimizes killing. That lesson is not lost on our youth."
Winick's closest friends and colleagues remember him as a fighter who used creativity and adaptation to overcome a physical handicap that would have sidelined many people. As his vision worsened from retinitis pigmentosa, from which he suffered since he was 32, Winick adapted, acquiring a guide dog named Bruno and using state-of-the-art scanning technology that allowed him to read and respond to e-mails, prepare lectures for throngs of law school students, and write more than ten books and over 100 journal articles.
At UM's School of Law, where he taught since 1974, Winick was the first Laurie Silvers and Mitchell Rubenstein Distinguished Professor of Law as well as professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences.
He authored and edited numerous books, including Civil Commitment: A Therapeutic Jurisprudence Model (Carolina Academic Press 2005), Judging In A Therapeutic Key: Therapeutic Jurisprudence And The Courts (Carolina Academic Press 2003), and Protecting Society From Sexually Dangerous Offenders: Law, Justice And Therapy (American Psychological Association Books 2003). He also authored over 100 articles in law reviews and interdisciplinary journals.
Winick was chair of the American Association of Law Schools' section on Balance in Legal Education. He was co-editor of the American Psychological Association Books series, Law and Public Policy: Psychology and the Social Sciences and legal advisor and member of the board of editors of Psychology, Public Policy & Law. He also served on the board of editors of Law & Human Behavior.
Prior to joining UM, Winick served as New York City's director of Court Mental Health Services and as general counsel of the New York City Department of Mental Health and Mental Retardation Services.
Winick received numerous awards for his scholarship. In 2009, he received the Philippe Pinel Award of the International Academy of Law and Mental Health, the Academy's highest honor. In 2007, he was named Honorary Distinguished Member of the American Psychology-Law Society. He also received the University of Miami Provost's Award for Scholarly Activity, the Thurgood Marshall Award of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York, and the Human Rights Award of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
Winick is survived by daughters Margot and Amber, sons Graham and Brendan, granddaughters Beatrix and Allegra, sister Paula Olsen, cousins, a niece, and a nephew.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the University of Miami Therapeutic Jurisprudence Center. Checks should be made payable to "UM School of Law Therapeutic Jurisprudence Center" and mailed to "Dean Patricia D. White, UM School of Law, P.O. Box, 248087, Coral Gables, Florida 33124."
The family is planning a Celebration of Life service to be held at the School of Law in the near future. Details on the event will be released on the School of Law website.

Read Poems by
Joel Lee
A strange place if not
So strangely familiar to seem
Choices if it ain't as oddly thought
As chosen yet never to mean
Once never twice but thrice
We follow to discern
Never in ourselves we believe in lies
Yet of lies we say to concern
A process to thoroughly enjoy though
And we begin for the end to fear
Did we enfold, unfold, uphold or behold?
Of yet strangeness to learn to endear
Everything... has to have time
Chancing along to dare spare
We all see and we are all blind
What time, do we no longer care?
Living in a world to be world's apart
Strange or strangely familiar to mean?
Oddly simple yet we make it so hard
Familiar... yet unfamiliar to only seem

Back when we were in high school, there was a chocolate soda in the vending machine inside of our school's cafeteria. We ended up forgetting about said chocolate soda for several years, and then when we remembered its existence, we couldn't get it out of our mind. Though we couldn't remember the name (we think that it was called "Chocolately Moo-Cow Soda" or something of the likes), we recall it being utterly delicious, and have never been able to find it, or anything similar to it.
Then, we came across this diet chocolate fudge soda from Waist Watcher in our local supermarket…
We didn't dare buy it. It not only doesn't seem to be anything like the chocolate soda from our high school (the cans had a flying cow on them), but it also appears to be something tailored to some type of midwestern glutton who wears acid washed jeans, has a mullet, and is thinking about dieting, but just can't seem to quit soda or chocolate yet.
Having said that, every pot has a lid, so we'll have to assume that the midwestern person we described above, has moved to Brooklyn, and is now our neighbor — we cannot wait to meet them!!

My wife is hot
How did I get this lucky, being the hideous chud I am, I have to say I am a lucky guy. Here you see Manny perving on my ever hot wife Beta. Hehe, I know your not manny just kidding , I know Maili (Manny's wife) gives better a huge run for her money and was watching at home in SD. I think she is better in the water and on the mic then me as well. I need to play catch up. Love you sweety!!
Fun size pipe!
Ayessha Yasmin Liquorish my good friends wife was kind enough to snap a shoot of me yesterday early morning. Pipe has been windy but supa fun! Loving life as always.Aloha
Beach Patrol (Pretty funny)
This is pretty funny to watch. It is from when I became a lifeguard back in 2007. It is classic watching yourself on TV and how Cheezy you can be or rather how you and your buddies can be or be portrayed as cheezy (na I am cheezy). However it is nice to see something this important in my life be on film. That month of training was one of the most fun times I have had in my life and the majority of my class are still my good friends until today. So worth a watch if you are board on a friday night like i was. Good times!
The Pipe Bodysurf extrvaganza!
Had a great time at the Pipe Bodysurfing extravaganza yesterday. Did not take out any big wigs like Mike Stewart or Mark Cunhingham but I had a great time. Came 4th in the run swim relay challenge which is the most exciting event within an even I have ever done. My partne did great as the resqueee, we just got tossed a bit when getting knocked in the grab by the other fellas. There was 500 cash on the line so we all wanted the loot for the after party. Good times Thanks for the shot to Neal at Highsurfadvisory.com
Pretty crazy how I think we all take life for granted fairly often. Hawaii escaped disaster today and I think we should all help those in Japan that are in need. Not to forget about Haiti and Chile but we should do what we can where we can.http://shermanoaks.patch.com/articles/how-to-help-those-affected-by-japans-earthquake-tsunami-disaster-3

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Time for a new pair of kicks, and looking for any advice/opinions:
I started running consistently about 3.5 years ago. Over that time I moved from light stability shoes to Nike Free to NB Minimus - first the MR10 (meh) and now the 730 (like 'em). Past two years in NBs have seen me get stronger, faster, and avoid injuries. Been working on mid-forefoot striking, but it's hard to know if I'm really doing it 'right.' I need to videotape myself! My stride is maybe too short and choppy, but I'm pretty sure I avoid heel striking so long as I'm in rhythm and not too tired out.
I like the 730s quite a bit save for sometimes having to fuss with the lacing to get my heel locked down - I often lace too tight on the top of my foot and then have to stop to retie. The rubber is worn through to the midsole on both big toes after about 325 miles, which is a little disappointing, but oh well. They're simple and smooth/firm and the price is nice, too. But ... time for new shoes is always fun.
I average about 20 miles/week running 3-6 miles at a time, so it's not like I'm racking up the marathon training miles. I'd like to get back up to doing long runs of 8-10 miles, but also just had a second kid (!), so I may not have the luxury of time for long runs anytime soon :) Also, I do 95% of my running on pavement. The trail running I've done has been awesome, and I want to do more. But I don't *need* trail shoes just yet.
I could just get another pair of 730s, but I kind of want to try zero drop - both for fun and to work on my footstrike. I think I have it narrowed down to Merrell Bare Access (1) or Flux Glove Sport. They're both on steep discount via Sierra Trading Post coupons right now, and get favorable reviews here and elsewhere, so likely I can't go wrong.
Bare Access are lighter and "made for road running," but the Flux Gloves have less cushioning, which might theoretically help my road feel and my stride … even though they're heavier? So confusing.
Any thoughts on these or other zero/low drop options? I'd prefer to spend under $70, and have no problem with "last year's models."

Prowling Around Outside
Last night my husband invited his brother and a cowboy to our house to watch the Ultimate Fighting Challenge pay-per-view event. Yuck. Barf. Ugh. All afternoon, I made wings, queso dip, carrots & celery, and gallons of ranch dressing for the boys just so I'd be exempt from watching the dreaded fights.
I barely got away in time. The first fight was already done by the time I finished doing the dishes, and when I asked the male creatures how it went, I saw only smiles and heard only "Bloody". I quickly grabbed my camera and decided to spend some time taking pictures outside before the testosterone pumping through my house gave me some kind of noxious headache.
First I focused on the moon, since it was one of the few subjects outside that provided enough light:
Then I decided it would be fun to pretend I was a Peeping Tom and take pictures of the inside of my house from the outside. I imagined I was the prowler/serial killer that I am usually convinced is lurking outside my kitchen window, quietly watching my every move as I unknowingly cook and wash dishes at night. Here's the killer's view of my kitchen:
Deep into my role-playing, and almost possessing the mind of the criminal himself, I walked closer. "This is exactly what the killer sees when he's stalking me," I said to myself.
Starting to feel a little creeped out, I raised the camera to snap another shot. Just then, from out of nowhere, my huge brown lab appeared and licked my crotch. I had just begun to convulse in horror when I pressed the shutter:
I bolted into the house, where I stayed the rest of the evening—all too happy to be safely surrounded by three manly-men, wings, and a bloody Ultimate Fighting Challenge.

I'm so jealous of your kitchen- nice and big! I love the cabinets too- my kitchen is small and cramped. If more than two people are in it and one isn't sitting down, it's just suffocating.

Your photos look great!! Too bad you weren't able to get the killer's view on the cowboys watching the fights. Oh, and I scare myself easily as well. Especially when Butch is gone.

This is an undergraduate text in statistical filtering. The authors' premise is that there is a need for a mathematically rigorous treatment at this level. I think they have succeeded in producing such a treatment, but the book is still unsatisfying for a couple of reasons:
Here's an example of the type of practical problem that engineers tackle with filtering and prediction. (This is the kind of handy motivational information that you won't find in this book.) Suppose an enemy fighter airplane is flying toward us and we are tracking it on radar so that we can shoot a missile at it. Fighters are fairly small, the radar return is weak, there is lots of radio-frequency noise in the environment, so our measurements of the fighter's position and velocity are poor (corrupted by noise). We probably model the fighter's progress by a simple model, e.g., constant velocity, but there will be small variations due to wind gusts, engine variability, etc. The filtering problem is to remove the noise (deviation from the model and noise in the measurements) to get an estimated position that is "best" in some sense. The prediction problem is to do this and then predict where the fighter will be a little in the future so we know where to aim the missile.
The first three chapters of the book deal with discrete state spaces, mostly because these are mathematically simpler. These chapters are essentially self-contained and assume only a tiny amount of probability theory. The remaining five chapters move to continuous spaces and also handle the prediction problem. These are much more advanced, and the prerequisites probably include familiarity with Fourier transforms and infinite series.
Before adopting this book you should at least look at a couple of others to see what you may be missing, even though they are graduate-level texts and might be too advanced for your purposes. A classic book on the subject is Optimal Filtering, by Brian D. O. Anderson and John B. Moore (Prentice-Hall, 1979, reprinted by Dover). This is an engineering textbook but it is admired for its mathematical rigor. A good new text is Optimal State Estimation: Kalman, H Infinity, and Nonlinear Approaches, by Dan Simon (Wiley, 2006). Both are very clearly written, and both continually keep you informed of why you are studying this subject and where you are going.

Simply record the piece, convert to a WAV file and load it onto the SPD.
In this regard, is sounds you use it like someone would use the Yamaha, in that instead of creating the songs on the unit itself you create the sounds on something else and then transfer the sounds to the unit. Which brings up this: Can the SX hold enough to cover a 4-hour gig? For example, can you have, you load and play horns and keys tracks for 45 complete songs?
On that topic, Wildbill, the Yamaha says it has only 64Mb of ROM, so I can assuming it cannot even come close to holding that much, and in fact might only be able to hold MAYBE 10 songs worh of this. Is that correct?
I don't use any of the drum sounds so I have no clueabout them. Al I know is that it was exactly what I was looking for and there are only a couple things they could have done better.
What are the couple of things that you think could stand to be improved?

Craig Robinson, comic and star of The Office, Hot Tub Time Machine, Shrek Forever After and many more, has signed on to host 2010 VH1 Hip Hop Honors (airing Monday, June 7 at 9/8c), so we thought we'd take some time to chat with him about the parallels between hosting and stand-up comedy (and stand-up comedy and hip-hop), which acts he's excited about seeing, his musical background (fun fact: he was an elementary school music teacher before breaking into showbiz) why he doesn't rap in public and the funny thing about the Dirty South and baby-making music…
This Hip Hop Honors is devoted to the Dirty South. You grew up in Chicago but does that style of hip-hop strike a particular chord for you?
Yeah. I mean, I?m a hip-hop fan. I've been doing my little research here and there, so it's been like, "Oh man that?s from the dirty?? Or, ?That?s produced by Timbaland?? I didn?t realize I was as big of a fan as I am, actually.
Is there anybody that you?re particularly excited to help honor or watch perform?
I?m looking forward to Luke. I mean, all of them. It?s great because a lot of this stuff was out when I was in college or when I was becoming to be a man and some of the stuff I was listening to going, ?YEAH! YEAH! Damn it feels good to be a musician!? I wasn?t gangster.
Luke had a show on VH1 a while ago. I interviewed him for that and I was like, "You have no idea how much you taught be about sex."
He was the king of having fun. I remember being in the club and Luke talking about ?I wanna rock, I wanna rock, I wanna rock!? and the whole club going crazy.
It?s that kind of track. From what I can gather, stand-up comedy and hosting an event like this are similar activities. Has that been your experience?
I hear what you're saying, but with hosting you have actual duties. The job is mixing laughter with the duties. The good thing about this we?re doing some videos, we?re doing some live stuff, and they?re incorporating my style by allowing me to use my band and play some music and do what I do. It?s really a mix.
Obviously you come from a musical background, and that's continued through your work, particularly in Hot Tub Time Machine. Have you ever tried your hand at rapping?
All the time, but nothing I would ever let anyone hear. That?s such an art form. I?ll freestyle and play around and every once in a while something might sound clever, but I would never disrespect rap by going, ?Oh I?m rapping now!?
So you don't be doing any of that during the show?
Not to my knowledge, no. We want the viewers to stay tuned in.
Obviously, Def Comedy Jam bridge struck the bridge between comedy and hip-hop long ago. But just in your personal experience, do you see any parallels between rapping and stand-up?
Yeah, there is a freedom that comes from both. Doing stand-up, you say whatever you want and represent your life. Same thing in hip-hop: this is the life that somebody leads and this is how they're spitting it. They're just talking about what they know and they?re bringing it to the forefront to a beat.
Tracy Morgan has a long-standing association with Hip-Hop Honors. How do you feel about following in his hosting footsteps? Are those big shoes to fill?
Absolutely. Tracy is the man. He?s a bad dude. I?m going to just go in there and do my thing. I can?t replicate Tracy Morgan. I don?t think anybody can. I?m going to do what I do.? They?ll probably hand it back to him next year.
Are you nervous at all? Do you get nervous about this kind of stuff?
At first I was nervous, but the more we?ve been collaborating on what?s going to happen and to see who?s performing, the more I?m ready to get at it. I want to have some fun and do my thing and then bam! Get to introduce Luke and all the other great artists that are coming. I?m more titillated than nervous at this point. Nerves went out the window now it?s time to get it on.
Speaking of comedy, you know what?s funny to me about the Dirty South? It has this reputation for being so sexually charged, but it's rarely baby-making music. Maybe H-Town's "Knockin' Da Boots," but that's about it.
Well, like you said, Luke taught you to have sex. Hip-hop is sexy. It represents having fun. It represents a good time. There?s definitely some getting lifted and getting down going on. I don?t know if it's not baby-making music. I think it's definitely fun party music. It's f***ing music! That?s what I?m trying to say nicely. Some of it you can just f*** to! You know, none of that baby-making, romance, or "I love you." Just bam! Let?s do this!
It's baby-making music, hold the baby. It's contraceptive. I guess Jermaine Dupri also has made some genuine baby-making jams in his day.
I love Jermaine Dupri from his stuff with Bow Wow to Kris Kross to Jay-Z. I think one of my favorites is probably ?In the Ferrari or Jaguar switching four lanes / With the top down screamin' out, 'Money ain?t a thing!'" "Funkdafied" with Da Brat. Jermaine is a producer extraordinaire.
And see, you just rapped for me.
Ha ha. Well you know, like I said, I?ll do it and have fun but I wouldn?t ever get up and say, ?Oh yeah, I?ll rap.?
That?s very respectful of you.
Oh, no doubt. I appreciate it. It?s an art form, man. It?s like the piano — you got to study it.
It's kind of insane that it took this long to get to the point where you can call hip-hop an art form and pretty much nobody would argue with you.
Yeah. Art being what art is, you have to develop it and you got to trust your gift and you got to go through some hard knocks. I?m sure a lot of these artists went through battles to figure out how to contain these gifts and harness them and ride them. So I guess it is sort of the same with hip-hop, and I?m glad that the moment has arrived.
Yep, that's what Hip Hop Honors is all about. Any surprises that you can tease for us? Anything we can expect at all?
This is a jam-packed show and it?s going to be off the hook. There?s nothing I can say that?s going to surprise because I? don't want them to come to me, saying, "You told him what?" I just want to keep my job, at least for this year.

The good blackjack basic strategy is the one that works and you can check it in many online casinos. It often happens to basic strategies for online gambling games that they are given without denoting for which particular kind of a game they are meant. Thus, you spend your time and do your best to understand this or that strategy and when you begin playing for money you suddenly discover that the strategy does not work. So, it is very important to check out if the strategy that you learn is good for the kind of a game that you are going to play. Every casino site offers its own specific advantages, which make it hard to find the best online casino in Australia. Its up to each individual player to decide which features appeal to him or her the most. Some people choose based on the promotions, others on game selection.
It is not that difficult to get lost in the number of strategies existing on the internet. Everyone who ever played blackjack and discovered some good pattern considers it the matter of honor to share them with others. And sure, when you do not have enough experience at this game it is impossible to decide if the patterns are really good.
This way or another, online gambling sites tend to offer auxiliary materials in the form of blackjack basic strategy chart or table. The charts and tables are based on the general strategies that prove good. Though the tables and charts are called to help players some find it pretty hard to understand how those can be used. This is not the problem, anyway. Online there are many sites explaining how the charts can be used in details. Besides, you can find tutorials for bingo game on the best bingo sites.
So, when you are have read what a basic strategy for blackjack is you can take use of a blackjack strategy trainer. However, the trainer is not the assistant that can be taken along for a game of blackjack. On the internet there are materials that can help you to make the right decision as for the next move. They are the blackjack strategy cards, charts and tables. At the same time, when you come to a casino with own auxiliary material you need to check out if the casino has any restrictions concerning such materials. The thing is that most of them consider it cheating when you consult any of the materials of that kind. Cheating is not good in any way. That is why you can be asked to stop doing that. If you want to use some materials during the game it is better to choose on of many online casinos for your gaming.
That would not be a pleasant surprise if you sign up for a good site and intend to play for money using some good strategy card and it suddenly turns out that it is not allowed to consult the card. That is why it is better to find out the casino's policy concerning the auxiliary material before you sign up. To do that you can attend an online blackjack forum. On such forums it is also possible to find out about new things that turn up and have influence on blackjack gaming on the internet, to ask questions and receive true answers to them. Well, in fact, it is necessary to be ready that some of the answers can turn out false because the players who give answers can be some of beginning ones discovering new things for themselves.

Remember to wipe.
The Fox Dust Wiper Kit works with Fox's ultra-smooth Kashima coating to make Fox forks some of the smoothest-functioning in the industry. Unfortunately, dirt can eventually cause the seals to leak and will need to be replaced when the fork is overhauled.
Fox partnered with legendary seal manufacturer SKF to develop it slow-friction fork seals. They are an important first line of defense in keeping your fork functioning smoothly.
- Designed with SKF
- Kit contains dust seals, lower seals, and crush washer

Show your fork some love.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Besides my own fork I have done several for friends. The are always amazed by the improvement and how dirty the old parts are. If you wait more than a year there is probably zero lube in the lowers and some excess in the air chamber. Expensive part to let go to hell when it is so easy to service.

Doin' it on the cheeeeeap!

Lazy approach scenario: You go and drop your bike off at the shop... They charge you anywhere between $30-40 bucks for this kit, and then another $50-70+ for the labor. Adds up quick, doesn't it?!
Watch a few vids on the internets, and seriously, you're good to go. The first time doing it may take some time; be patient though, once you get it dialed in, the second and third time will feel like a breeze.
Show your forks some love already. Drink a beer afterwards, or do what I like to do, during and after.

Get your self some.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Even if your not going to perform the task, they are probably cheaper than at the shop. Don't find out the hardway and have you shock serviced. Clearly it all depends on how much you ride and how often you will need to do this. The kashima coating will get worn away easily below the seal after time if you don't change these seals.
Vinny Mauro
Huge Improvement
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Pretty straightforward product here... but if you are wondering whether or not it's worth it to service your fork, IT IS! Grab this kit and some oil and you and your fork will be glad you did. Keeping fresh seals and oil in your fork is essential for performance and longevity. Rebuilding the damper itself is quite a bit more involved, but if you aren't comfortable with that you can just do the oil and seals at home fairly easy with basic tools and skills and that will still be great for your fork! Then maybe at the end of the season either take on the damper service, or take it to your local shop, or send it off to Push.
All you need (besides tools) is this kit, fork oil (for my 2013 36 float 160 fork I needed 30ml of green 10 wt fork oil in both legs), and a couple of float fluid packs. And here are the instructions I used:
Does this kit come with the float fluid...
Does this kit come with the float fluid pillow packs? I heard they do but not sure.
Patrick Fleege
No. I bought two pillow packs, which was perfect. One to lube the foam rings and one for the air chamber.
Clint J Stevenson
Fox rebuild
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Refresh your forks and shock with a rebuild kit a couple times a year and experience a much plusher ride.
Fork Rebuild
Rebuilt my fox fork at the beginning of the year and it is running much smoother then it was before. The new seals really made the difference.
Chad Cordell
Replacement Part
If you are rebuilding your Fox fork you need these. Wipers are fairly cheap to replace and will save you a lot of headaches in the future. Sizes are based on the diameter of your stanchions.

Claiming Your Voice Weekend of June 27-29 , 2014
$405.00 – $1,750.00 (based on accommodation type)This workshop's start date has passed.
Workshop Details
Some of the greatest leaps in personal development come when we stop believing that others have more access to deep wisdom than we do, have superior opinions to ours, or hold sway over us—when we finally know at the end of the day that we can trust ourselves.
This workshop will address many aspects of claiming your voice—in writing, in vocal work, and, most importantly, in daily life through the choices you make in it. The program will help you gain access to your many inner voices as well as different aspects of your character, many of which you suppress and ignore, but which can each provide important insights and wisdom in your everyday life. Finally you can get comfortable in your own skin.
You will deepen the ability to hear yourself—and all that there is to hear. What does your body say about how you feel right now? What do your emotions have to tell you? What feelings and messages have you been resisting? This workshop will teach you to allow them to surface so you can come deeper into your own power.
The days of being guided by pleasing others and trying to fix yourself are over. This program is for anyone of any age ready to sink into the experience of being and trusting yourself.

SOUTH WHITLEY — After a dramatic game last season, several Whitko players mentioned the same goal in preseason interviews this summer.
Beating Columbia City.
A goal that is only fitting after last year's disappointing loss for the Wildcats, and exciting win for Columbia City.
This season, both teams come into the game looking to pick up their first wins, after facing losses in the opening round. The Eagles lost to Warsaw last week, 20-14, and Whitko fell to Wawasee, 20-7, an improvement from last season's 24-0 loss to the Warriors. Last year, Columbia City beat Warsaw 34-14.

Updated: 08/05/2013 11:43 AM KSTP.com By: Aaron Chalich
This past weekend I was at Mystic Lake Casino in Prior Lake to see "Weird" Al Yankovic.
I have been a fan of "Weird" Al for over 25 years. The first cassette tape (yes, cassette tape) was "Dare to Be Stupid." I have bought all of Al's albums and have seen him several times in concert before. His show is amazing and is also a great show to bring the family to.
If you have never seen a "Weird" Al concert before, it is something you must do. It is one of the most entertaining shows I have ever seen. It is the perfect mix of great music, theatrical special effects, short video clips and humor.
"Weird" Al is famous for his parodies of famous songs. He takes songs that are popular at the time and he changes the lyrics. Al does a parody on his latest album, "Alpocalypse," of Lady Gaga's "Born this Way." Al's version is "Perform this Way."
Al gets permission from the artists to record the parodies before he does, so there are no legal issues. Some artists have said that they know they have made it when they get the call from Al asking about doing a parody of their song.
Al and the band also have tons of original songs that are very witty and cleverly written.
Al's band sounded amazing and they are very talented and entertaining to watch on stage. Jim "Kimo" West (banjo/guitar/keyboard/background vocals), Steve Jay (bass/background vocals), Ruben Valtierra (keyboards) and Jon "Bermuda" Schwartz (drums) are the musicians in Al's band. Every time I see them in concert it amazes me how good they are because they make all of the songs sound exactly like the originals note for note.
In all of the times that I have seen "Weird" Al in concert, I would have to say that this was the best one yet. It is the "Alpocalypse Tour" and I loved the songs that were chosen for the set list.
Al played for over two hours and played at least one song off of almost every album he has released. The fans loved it. For the whole two hours everyone in the Mystic Lake Showroom was singing along, cheering and on their feet.
Al opened with a polka medley called "Polka Face" and then played songs like "TMZ(parody of Taylor Swift's "You Belong To Me"), "Smells Like Nirvana" (parody of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit"), "Fat" (parody of Michael Jackson's "Bad") plus a bunch of his original songs.
There are a lot of costume changes, so in between songs we were all entertained by hilarious videos on a big screen. There were funny parody interviews that Al did with celebrities and short odd videos. Then after the videos, Al and the band were back out in new costumes ready to play their next song.
One thing that I really enjoy about seeing "Weird" Al is that it is a family friendly show. There were a lot of families that had younger kids and they were having a blast. They had their "Weird" Al shirts on and were singing along with their parents to all of the songs. I have never seen this before at any of the concerts I have gone to and it was great to see.
Before the show I got the opportunity to talk to Jon "Bermuda" Schwartz on how he met Al and how he got the name "Bermuda," along with a few other questions which you can view at the top of the page. Jon is such a great guy and one of the nicest you will ever meet.
I really enjoyed seeing "Weird" Al at Mystic Lake Casino in Prior Lake. The show was very entertaining and it is an experience like no other. If you are looking for a fun and exciting concert that you can take your whole family to, I would highly recommend that you go to a "Weird" Al show.

Ah that's lovely.I sent him a card and asked everyone i know to do
so aswell.Look at the smile on his face
'I thought I'd get nine or 10… But there are hundreds here!' – Lonely Irish pensioner receives first Christmas cards in years
THE LOOK on his face said it all.
James Gray knew The Irish Post would be bringing him Christmas cards today. And he had been told that his story has touched thousands.
But he did not expect this.
"Do you really need such a big box? Or is that just for the photo," James laughed outside his south London flat.
Then we took the lid off.
"You said this was just the first lot," he exclaimed, glaring with wide, shocked eyes into his box of cards.
"I thought maybe there would be nine or 10 cards because I didn't get a single one for my birthday.
"But these are going to keep me busy until the New Year!"
This afternoon The Irish Post delivered nearly 300 Christmas cards to the 85-year-old, who spent his last nine Christmases alone before reaching out earlier this month.
James took out an advert trying to set up a pensioners group in the hope it would help him find company for December 25 this year.
Last year the Cork-native had prawns and smoked salmon for Christmas dinner, alone at his kitchen table, before turning to his television and a newspaper for company.
But since his story was reported in The Irish Post, the response has been incredible.
The 300 cards he is leafing through this evening are the product of just two days' worth of deliveries.
For a man who has been alone for so long, it was hard to take it all in.
"This response is overwhelming," James said.
"When I put the advertisement in, I thought I might get a couple of quick calls, but now I can see that all these people have gone to the trouble of writing, which I could never have expected.
Laughing, he added: "I suppose by having my photograph out there people are thinking 'Look at this poor old chap, he has taken the courage'."
Huge numbers of the cards received so far have come from Ireland, with others from as far afield as Copenhagen, Vienna and Geneva.
Some people have been so touched that they have sent a present. The gifts range from a Quality Street toffee penny, which plummeted out of the first card James opened, to a bottle of whiskey.
One card even included a beautiful drawing from a young child, depicting James and his new friends stood by a Christmas tree under the stars.
Deliveries from Uruguay, Hawaii, the US and Australia are expected by the end of the week.
"It is wonderful that so many people have written to me," James said after reading the first 10 cards he has received in a very long time.
"I wish I could have all these people in my flat for a party, but those days are gone. There used to be 20 or 30 in here at one time for a party, but not anymore.
"It looks like these cards have come from all over the country. My carer is coming tomorrow and she is going to get a shock."
He added: "It is a pity I did not do this some years ago, but I suppose it is never too late."
Since The Irish Post reported on James' brave decision to try to end his lonely streak by taking out an advert seeking Christmas companions, his story has taken the world by storm.
He is now in demand from newspapers across Britain and Ireland, as well as a number of major broadcasters.
His story has also made it as far as New Zealand, Chile and the US.
Dozens of people have written in asking whether James will be alone on December 25 this year too.
The Irish Post hopes to finalise the details of a special Christmas meal for the retired butler and a few guests in the coming days.
Regardless, James Gray will not be spending this Christmas alone.

Ah that's lovely.I sent him a card and asked everyone i know to do
Where does one send a card for him? I would be happy to send him one.
I am glad that James Gray spoke up – I think he will receive an avalanche of cards now. I hope he is able to create a great "Circle of Friends" through this Christmas tale.
I sent him a card from here (Colorado) and then wondered who in my circle of friends was also going to be alone on Christmas Day.
Good wake up call!
To everyone at the Irish Post thank you for highlighting his story. I think its woken people up to the fact that some people are the "invisible" lonely people at Christmas.
Well done to everyone who helped put that brilliant smile on his face. I know that smile mad me well up. I did send him a card and a little gift and I am so glad I did as the brightness in his face now is great to see.
Happy Christmas to him and everyone reading this. Lets hope there are far fewer "invisible" lonely people this year because of this story.
Wow, such a beautiful story! I live in Panama and I would like to send him a letter too, how can I do it? Addres? Thanks you
Hi all at The Irish Post , how about trying to set up a lonely Christmas fund , so that all ' on their own Irish people ' can have a good Christmas Day .. Similar to other lonely people projects they have in other parts of the UK .. I for one would be willing to give up some of my time & ' a few punts ' to this worthy project ( in the London area ), but hopefully others could make it a nationwide idea .. Please consider .. Many thanks , Jim ..
Uutinen ylti suomeen asti…pidetään kodittomista yhdessä huolta!!!kiitos Irish postin toimittajalle mahtavasta jutusta ja maailmalle hyvää joulua ja rauhallista uuttavuotta!!!!
Hyvää joulua ja onnea vuodelle 2014….from finland
It just makes me wonder how many people spend Christmas alone every year.
We are having two pensioners who would otherwise be alone so if every family had an alone pensioner for Christmas then perhaps no pensioner would be alone for Christmas !
Merry Christmas and a healthy and prosperous new year to everyone.
when i worked in social services in kilburn many years ago i came across many people like james gray, every christmas i would hold wee party in my home and it was so wonderful just pure joy to see the smiles. i know many pensioners this year who will be alone, and sadly some have familys who live to far away to visit. i am glad the irish post was done something to highlight this. if you know any one alone a neighbour just check they are ok, i live on my own and it can be lonely at times beleive me, my cat murphy is great friend.
It is too late to get a card to him but if he could be set up with Skype we'd love to give him a video call Christmas Day.
I sent him a card from Canada. If he lived near me I would go and pick him up and have him spend Christmas day with my family. He looks like a sweet man. I hate to think of anyone feeling alone on Christmas day, and hope he never has to do that again.

In a move that surprised both proponents and opponents of a proposed liquefied natural gas terminal near Astoria, the federal agency charged with approving the facility decided in early July — months earlier than expected — to make a ruling on the project.
In a move that exemplifies the growing rift both within and without Oregon state government over liquefied natural gas terminals, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in June gave an environmental endorsement to a proposed project on the Columbia River.
COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS account for 40% of the energy used in the U.S., and with energy costs on the rise, that's a huge burden for business.
