- How to Read a Study Record
There have been reports in the medical literature demonstrating a link between the development of provoked vestibulodynia (PVD), a sexual pain disorder, and hormonal contraceptive (HC) use. The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the prevalence of HCs induced PVD among a HC naïve population, to evaluate which of the components of the HCs are associated with a higher risk of the development of PVD, and to evaluate which clinical and genetic factors predispose the patient to HCs induced PVD. Assessments will be made through patient questionnaires, physical examinations, and blood tests. Microarray techniques will be employed to characterize, on a global level, the gene expression profiles of women who develop PVD in comparison to those who do not develop PVD. Patients will be followed for a year. Results will be used to develop a larger clinical trial.

Book Critique
Sharing Jesus without Fear
A Paper
Submitted to Dr. Gregory Hammond
In Partial Fulfillment
Of the Requirements for the Course
Contemporary Evangelism
Evan 565
Bibliographical Information
Fay, William and Linda Evans Shepherd, "Sharing Jesus Without Fear", B&H Publishing Group, Nashville, Tennessee, 1999.
Author Information
William Fay, author of Sharing Jesus without fear, shares his testimony in the beginning of his book. Fay was once president and CEO of a large company. This was not all that he dabbled in as he had ties to illegal activities such as racketeering, bookmaking, gambling, and even ran a house of prostitution. (Fay,1) According to Fay, he felt at this time in his life he had everything that life could offer. The expensive watches, money, multiple marriages, but this trend in his life did not continue. Fay, eventually came to Jesus Christ and went to Denver Seminary, and now is an evangelist that travels throughout the U.S.
Content Summary
Fay states at the very beginning what the purpose of his work. He states that it's objective is to provide liberty and to build the believer so he can present the Gospel and not fail. (Fay, Preface) The book is broken down into 11 chapters each dealing with aspects when presenting the Gospel. Fay starts with establishing the fact that just because you present the Gospel and someone does not respond it does not mean that you failed. Success when it comes to the Gospel is presenting the Gospel and living out the Gospel. Fay points to the fact that it boils down to obedience. The next couple of chapters, Fay address the issue of not sharing the Gospel and common objections and fears that Christians have when presenting the Gospel. In Chapter 2, the author states that we must repent of the sin of silence. Christians, who never discuss the Gospel, instead talk about unsaved world, but does nothing about it. In this same chapter the author tries to...

In addition to the new name, Port Tampa Bay President and CEO Paul Anderson announced the launch of the port's new logo and brand approach.
"There's a whole new customer-centric focus and energy to what we're doing here. We're making the investments and structural moves to provide more capacity and value for our customers-and now we're telling everyone about it," said Anderson.

Dawson College lowers its flags to half mast
MONTREAL, April 17 /CNW Telbec/ - On behalf of the students, faculty and staff of Dawson College, Director General Richard Filion would like to express his condolences and support to the students, faculty, staff and administration of Virginia Tech, the scene of yesterday's massacre. "Speaking from experience, unfortunately, I can tell you that the road to recovery is a long one," he said. "But with the support of the communities inside our schools, and the greater communities that surround us, we can draw on their strength and encouragement. And we must never lose sight of our mission, to help our youth achieve their best in a safe and stimulating environment." In a show of solidarity with Virginia Tech, the flags at Dawson were lowered to half mast early this morning. On September 13, a gunman arrived at the College and shot dead one student and injured 15 other students and one employee.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Finding a cause at Solid Sound Festival isn't hard.
Scattered amongst the music are biodegradable cardboard water boxes, booths to remind you to register to vote and write your congressman, containers for recylcing and table urging the return of passenger rail to New York.
The most unusual — dare we say magical — is the Rube Goldberg-like money stamping machine in the courtyard at Mass MoCA, accessible to anyone.
The brainchild of Ben Cohen of Ben & Jerry fame, the machine stamps a message on any bill you put in it: "Stamp money out of politics" or "The system isn't broken it's fixed."
The target of the Stamp Mobile is the 2010 Citizens United decision by the Supreme Court that opened the floodgates to corporate and other election donations.
"The whole point is getting the message out," said Aaron Rubin of New York, who has been driving the contraption around since heading north from Miami in February. "You stamp the bill but you have to spend it."
One bill will circulate through 850 hands in about 2 1/2 years, said Rubin. "If people stamped 100 bills, that's 850,000 people."
The Stamp Machine takes the bill on a ride through hoops and loops — setting off a presumed politician to spew money from his mouth — before it finally arrives at the actual stamp. If you don't want to wait that long, you can buy your own stamp to take home at what Rubin says is cost, $10. More than 7,500 have been sold.
Rubin said the tide is turning. More than a dozen states have taken a stand against Citizens United and he's sure that New Hampshire will be next. In the meantime, he's off to Union Station in New York for a press rollout, then western Michigan, back to Vermont and then off to the West Coast.
MSNBC was scheduled to do an interview with Cohen (who's enjoying Solid Sound this weekend) on Sunday morning at MoCA for the "The Ed Show."
"We're going to keep doing it until works ... and it will work," Rubin said.
If you live in North Adams and love music, you're in luck!
The Solid Sound Festival is offering a one-day ticket special of $30 for Sunday, June 26, just for city residents. That's a 55 percent discount over the regular $65 one-day admission.
"In addition to loving the music, many of last year's festivalgoers commented on the town, how helpful and gracious the businesses, officials, and residents were. We are grateful to the city for being so welcoming to the band and visitors and wanted to extend this special offer as a way of saying thanks," said Tony Margherita, Wilco's manager.
Headlining Sunday's show will be Levon Helm and his Rambling Band playing in Joe's Field on the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art campus at 4:30 p.m. Other performances on Sunday include Darin Gray, Glenn Kotche solo set, JC Brooks and The Uptown Sound, Pronto, the Autumn Defense and Pillow Wand (Nels Cline/Thurston Moore duo). For kids, The Story Pirates will perform from noon to one, there will be a live falconry demonstration with Chris Davis of New England Falconry throughout the day, and a community yoga class offered under the upside-down trees (or inside in case of rain) from 10 to 11 a.m.
The discounted tickets must be purchased in advance in person at the Mass MoCA box office from 11 to 5. Residents must present proof of residency with a valid driver's license or utility bill with the 01247 ZIP code (hmm, does that mean Clarksburg and Florida residents get in, too?). Discount resident tickets will only be available until Thursday, June 23, at 5 p.m. They will NOT be available at the door.
Solid Sound takes place June 24 to June 26 at Mass MoCA and features two headlining concerts by Wilco, plus 18 bands including Helm, Moore, Syl Johnston, Dave Douglas, Neil Finn, Liam Finn, Jamie Lidell, Wilco side projects, special pop-up performances and more. Full three-day festival passes are still available for $124.50. Complete daily schedules and additional information are available through solidsoundfestival.com.
We caught this on the Mass MoCA Facebook page on Wedneday, May 11.
The early "worm" (not bird!) tickets were sold out weeks ago at $99.50 a pop.
A pretty good price considering the tickets give admission to all three days of the festival and the biggest contemporary art museum in the United States.
(You should see the stuff they have in there.)
Regular tickets are listed at $124.50 on the Mass MoCA website but if you follow the (way too many) links through to purchase the tickets, they're at $116. Not sure what that's all about.
Anyway, if you haven't got your tickets yet you can save a few more bucks if you get your friends and their friends, etc., to LIKE like crazy on the Wilco Spring 2011 Tour Photos. You've got until 5 p.m. on May 12 at 5 p.m. We were LIKE No. 349.
Solid Sound and Wilco return to Mass MoCA on the weekend of June 24. According to the festival's website, all the early bird and return tickets have been sold out. All that's remaining is the $124.50 three-day pass.
The event is expected to bring upwards of 5,000 concertgoers to the city and surrounding area. We'll try to update with tidbits and whatnot that we come across as the date approaches.
That includes news that Wilco will release a single — on vinyl — at the festival.
Jambands reports the self-released 7-inch will have the new "I Might" on the A side and a cover of Nick Lowe's "I Love My Label" on the B side. The record premieres at Mass MoCA before it's released to the world.
Along with the musicians and comedians will be a micropower radio station, WTNG. A post on Radio Survivor describes the station as "a laptop and microphone driving a mixer, PA and small transmitter." The microstation was part of a pop-up record store in Chicago's Wicker Park. The man who set up the station, Michael, told Radio Survivor he was planning to join the festival in June.

Through four games, nine true freshmen have played for OSU: quarterback Wes Lunt, cornerbacks Kevin Peterson and Ashton Lampkin, receivers C.J. Curry, Brandon Sheperd, Blake Webb and Austin Hays, defensive end Trace Clark and running back/returner Caleb Muncrief.
Oklahoma State football notebook: Nine freshman Cowboys have played
That means the other 10 true freshman members of the Cowboys' 2012 signing class are likely on track to redshirt, barring injuries or other unforeseen circumstances.
OSU signed 24 players in February, including three junior college transfers — defensive tackle Calvin Barnett, inside receiver Blake Jackson and offensive lineman Chris Grisbhy. Receiver Jesse Vester ended up at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M after he did not qualify at OSU, and offensive lineman Greg Brantley left the team during the preseason for personal reasons.
The freshmen breakdown:
*Played in all four games: Peterson and Lampkin.
*Played in three games: Lunt, Webb, Clark, Muncrief.
*Played in two games: Sheperd, Curry.
*Played in one game: Hays.
*Have yet to play: DE Eric Davis, DE Victor Irokansi, LB Seth Jacobs, OL Paul Lewis, DE Emmanuel Ogbah, FB Dominic Ramacher, WR Jhajuan Seales, LB Jeremiah Tshimanga (season-ending knee injury), OL Zach Veatch and OL Michael Wilson.
Cowboys running back Joseph Randle ran for a career-best 199 yards against Texas and admitted afterward to being on edge for the matchup.
OSU coach Mike Gundy said now he's looking for that same edge on a weekly basis.
"Joseph played with some fire and had that look in his eye," Gundy said. "We actually had a conversation with him … that's the way he has to play every game. It's Texas and it's national TV and everybody's watching you, but the good players, the one's who really want to make a difference, they have to do it against every team we play each week. You've got to find a way to motivate yourself.

"Hats Off" — the words of this poem jarred this 90-year-old-plus memory back to the third grade, as the city of Stuart honored its veterans this past Veterans Day.
For those who don't recall the poem by Henry Holcomb Bennett:
"Hats off! Along the street there comes/ A blare of bugles/ A rustle of drums/ A flash of color beneath the sky/ Hats Off! The Flag is passing by ..."
Bennett's was a fitting description of the parade route on East Ocean Boulevard. Unfortunately, the auxiliary that gave out small plastic flags to the spectators struck an unpatriotic note.
Don't you think to befit the occasion it would have been more appropriate to distribute flags imprinted, "Made in USA," rather than "Made in China?"

Anyone who wants to learn French is invited
Ardis Root, Principal of the Sources Adult and Career Centre in Pierrefonds is passionate about the French class that has been offered to adults. Virtually tuition free – there's only a small student fees in order to enroll. The only prerequisite: having an interest.
Classes are organized so that the student has not only a more comprehensive way to learn the new language, but also to stimulate and make the learning more interesting. A teacher gives magisterial classes, complemented with computer labs featuring Rosetta Stone software.
"Students will sometimes come up with new words, and I'll ask them where they got it from," said French teacher Tarik Ziouane about the software used in class. He is very grateful to have this tool and did notice that students are keener on doing their work. It also gives him a chance to study his own students are be more in tune to their needs.
"If I see someone who needs more help, I am there. On the contrary, if I see someone who learns rapidly, I can go deeper with them," Zioune said, pinpointing it as a strong suit of the Sources' program.French is hard
"They are learning to conjugate in a natural way – by hearing properly," said Root about the program.
"When are a new center and when we talked about the culture building for the centre, what came accross is that we really care about our students," said Root. For the principal, it is important that students feel welcomed and that their expectations are met – and that also goes for French classes.
"The environment is a very important factor", noted Ziouane. He explained that learning a new language can sometimes be intimidating and that the fear of being laughed at is present. He is very glad that this does not become an issue at the centre and every student has a fulfilling experience.
According to him, some students find French very difficult – especially for newly arrived immigrants. They will tend to panic, but he says that he is always on the lookout and does his best to find subjects that will touch them.
Chris Eustace is taking French classes at the Centre. The retired teacher is now running for the Lester B. Pearson school board chairman position and felt that he could ameliorate his French skills. He felt it was imperative for West Islanders to know about this opportunity.

Learning to express oneself on paper is one of the most important skills a child can develop. From a few sentences on what they did over summer vacation to a doctoral thesis, students never stop needing to know how to write, and write appropriately for their level. Closely tied to reading, learning to write employs many similar strategies, as well as some that are unique to this vital part of life.

Treasure Coast Fishing Report: Aug. 4
Steve Parsons of Wabasso Tackle reported that mangrove snapper fishing throughout inshore waters is giving anglers something to take home for dinner. Live shrimp is the prime bait and attached to a jig is the best way to hook a snapper. On the beach, some whiting are being caught on clam strips, squid or Fish Bites. Oversized snook are thick in Sebastian Inlet, but are catch and release until the end of the month.
Pierce Hostetler of DeBrooks Fishing Corner in Fort Pierce reported that not much news has come in from offshore. Along the beaches, north and south of Fort Pierce Inlet, light tackle anglers are tossing flies or MirrOlure MirrOdines to hook snook and tarpon in the trough. Around North Bridge, anglers fishing with knocker rigs and live shrimp are catching mangrove snapper.
Henry Caimotto of Snook Nook Bait and Tackle in Jensen Beach said offshore reports have been few and far between, but blackfin tuna and wahoo are possibilities out near Push Button Hill. Inshore, Caimotto said many of his customers are boating or driving north to fish the Indian River Lagoon near Big and Little Mud Creek for trout and redfish. The key, he said, is to find clean water, which can be challenge.
The fishing at Lake Okeechobee has been impacted by rising water levels. Measuring over 15.7 feet last week, the bass have been pushing up into areas with heavy vegetative cover. Spinner baits with white and gold blades, crank baits and topwater plugs are all good choices for catching fish before 8 a.m. After the sun starts to climb into the sky, switch to senkos, flukes and 10-inch worms.

As advertised, Hassan Rouhani was the star of the week at the Great UN Circus. He knew it, and he treated his American hosts with arrogance and contempt, and was duly hailed as a peace-seeker. He spent hours and hours with diplomats (just not American ones), journalists, academic apologists such as Gary Sick, and anti-American rabble rousers like Louis Farrakhan, but he didn't have time for President Obama.
No matter. When the Iranians told the White House that Rouhani could squeeze in a few words on the phone, Obama eagerly called him up, thereby giving the journalists and apologists the opportunity to use their prepared language about "historic conversation," etcetera etcetera and so forth.
Rouhani's basic message was to say "you'd better be nice to me, or you'll get the hardliners," and some nasties from central casting duly appeared on cue at the Tehran airport when Rouhani returned from satanic New York City, shouting at the president and even throwing a shoe. A couple of the demonstrators were arrested, underscoring their presumed menace (anyone who believes the "protest" was spontaneous badly needs a lower-school refresher course in totalitarianism). It was overkill; Obama wants a deal. He doesn't need further convincing.
And he's willing to pay for it. Quite a lot, in fact. Even before Rouhani deigned to take Obama's call, we had given the Islamic Republic an ancient treasure, a cup crafted two millenia before Mohammed, said to be worth at least a million dollars.
Remember that Obama gave the Brits a collection of his favorite speeches.
Why such largesse? It's a shocking present, way beyond the normal. Orders of magnitude greater, in fact. What had the Iranians done to deserve it?
I don't know, but if I were forced to answer, I'd reply with another question: what did Obama and Rouhani talk about? Yes, I know they exchanged pleasantries about wanting a happier world, but there was one subject raised by Obama. A "senior administration official" told the press on background about it:
The fate of three U.S. citizens who have disappeared or been imprisoned in Iran was discussed during Friday's historic conversation between the two nations' presidents, a senior U.S. administration official said.
U.S. President Barack Obama, during his phone call with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, "noted our concern about three American citizens who have been held within Iran — Robert Levinson, Saeed Abedini, and Amir Hekmati — and noted our interest in seeing those Americans reunited with their families," the official said.
Levinson is a former FBI agent who was disappeared from Kish Island several years ago. He was said to be investigating cigarette smuggling. Abedini is an Iranian-American Christian minister arrested and charged with subversion. Hekmati is an Iranian-American Marine who was said to be visiting relatives in Tehran, and was arrested and charged with espionage.

There is new polling out in Georgia and Colorado, each of which shows the race tightening.Rasmussen
conducted the Colorado poll, which has Barack Obama with a 43-41 lead.
That 2-point advantage is down from 6 points a month ago. But in
Georgia, Insider Advantage
has that state tightening to a single point; John McCain leads 44-43,
with 6 points going to Bob Barr. Insider Advantage's prior poll in
Georgia, which also included Barr in the match-ups, had John McCain
ahead by 10.Earlier this week, I ripped on the Obama campaign
for designating Georgia as a swing state. No previous polling had shown
Obama within single digits there -- a Rasmussen poll conducted the day
after the primaries ended had it McCain +10. I doubt that the state is
truly within the margin of error right now. But it is certainly close
enough -- with the known unknowns of the Barr vote and African-American
turnout -- to be included in Obama's ad buy,
as the candidate is doing. This may also be a reminder that you can
often infer something about a campaign's internal polling in a state
before the public data catches up. The McCain camp, for their part, seems as pleased as a peach:
The McCain campaign on Thursday said they welcome Obama's expenditure."We're
obviously overjoyed when Barack Obama spends money in a state that we
are very, very confident that John McCain will carry in November,"
McCain spokesman Jeff Sadosky said.
As to the Colorado result: the patterns here are getting harder rather than easier to detect, but just as he's gotten an especially large bounce out of Appalachia,
there is a certain type of state where Obama has gotten little bump at
all, or his numbers have even ticked downward. These are the states
that I sometimes think of as the Great White North: places like Oregon
and Washington, and Minnesota, and Colorado. These states have fair
numbers of Democrats but, with the possible exception of Minnesota,
they don't tend to be as institutionally Democratic as states East of
the Mississippi. They remain among Obama's best states, but he may be
running into some kind of ceiling in terms of partisan support.
--Nate Silver

Upper Park Designs
Disc golf anyone?
Often it seems student entrepreneurs are concentrating exclusively on building web sites and apps, but it's simply not so. Case in point, the winners of the Center for Entrepreneurship's Spring 2011 Business Concept Competition (Hobie Jensen, Jon Richardson and Pat Edelman, aka Upper Park Designs) have just released their product line of backpacks for the casual disc golfer.
So what was the problem they were trying to solve?
Basically, they saw that the majority of bags for disc golfers were being made for the so-called "serious player", so the existing bags all aped golf bags; they were big and bulky.
Upper Park Design's team thought the average disc golfer goes out more for fun than anything else; so a big bulky bag is inappropriate. Rather, a backpack-like design would be the ticket – and here is where they got clever. In a moment of clarity that the great management guru Peter Drucker would love, they thought: Why not mimic a different sport altogether? Bringing the idea of an archery quiver to a disc golf course? In this way the player can just reach around and grab the appropriate disc. Perhaps said golfer might not be able to carry all fifteen discs a "serious" player requires – but who cares? A driver, a couple of irons and a putter are fine for most --- and for those of you unfamiliar with the sport, yes, there are indeed all sorts of different discs for special requirements on a disc golf course.
Add it all up and you have a burgeoning new business conceived and wrought here on the campus of California State University –

I hopped out of the car, went to the crosswalk and pushed the crossing button. I was surprised and delighted to see the crosswalk light up, in addition to the signs on both sides of the street. Cars stopped and I crossed the street.
After depositing my mail, I went back to the crosswalk and pushed the button again and everything lit up. I checked the street; nobody coming from El Camino, and one car beyond the fire station. I stepped off the curb and something made me stop. The car approaching the crosswalk had all its inside lights on and wasn't slowing down, even though the street was bright with all the yellow lights flashing.
As I stood there, the black sedan flew through the crosswalk. The driver was looking down, there were no hands on the steering wheel, and as she went by, she never looked up. All I could think was, I hope she looks up before she comes to El Camino.
It is hard to believe that what she was doing, texting, checking her messages or whatever, was more important than someone's life. She could have easily injured or killed me. We have seen it happen in Menlo Park before. So everyone, be careful when you are crossing a street, even at a crosswalk. There are drivers out there who are not paying any attention to what is in front of them.

We have had the good fortune to have worked with David Bruton and Base for Business for the past 4 years. It was very lucky for us to have found David at the beginning of our QuickBase development process. There is a very good chance that we would never have been able to build our current enterprise level platform of application serving over 1,000 people from all over the country without his help. David has been a critical partner in getting us through some very tricky development processes.
The thing I like best about David is that whenever we throw a few ideas at him on what we would like to accomplish, he comes back at us with some very well thought out solutions with things we would never have found on our own. He has taken the time to know and understand our business to where he can add value to every project that he works on.

Mr. Bruton invested the time to learn about our business and then created a job tracking program tailored to our needs. But, more important, he created a program that is flexible enough to change and grow with our needs so that our job tracking program will be the standard in the industry.

I have worked with Base for Business for the last two years. During that time I worked with Dave Bruton for both assistance in building a new business critical application and in maintaining an existing critical application he had previously built for us.
Dave is always available, responsive to our needs and consistently goes above and beyond to exceed our expectations.
Dave listens to our business needs and design concepts and then incorporates into them his extensive engineering and business skills to enhance and deliver a superior product.
It is a pleasure to work with David and Base for Business. I would recommend their services and would be happy to discuss my experience with anyone interested in working with Base for Business and David Bruton.

I have worked with Base for Business for the last four years. During that time we have called upon them to build over 10 different applications that range from HR performance management, Business Continuity to an entire PMO portfolio management system. All of these applications are mission critical. David was available to us with little notice and met extremely tight deadline delivery dates. He doesn't just build what you ask him to, he uses his business intellect to enhance your design. He is great to work with, a strong communicator and extremely reliable. I would be happy to speak in person with anyone interested in working with Base for Business and in particular David Bruton.

Cornyn vows full review of West fertilizer plant explosion
WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. John Cornyn offered assurances of a federal review of the West explosion a day before speaking at a memorial service Thursday for those who died as a result of the April 17 disaster at a fertilizer plant.
The Republican Texas senator said he sees a role for Congress in examining events leading to the explosion that killed at least 14, injured about 200 and devastated several blocks in the small town near Waco.
"The federal government is going to be doing its own review and making sure we learn from this and do everything we can to stop it from happening again," Cornyn said Wednesday afternoon.
After the blast, questions arose over the oversight, handing and regulation of West Fertilizer Co. and chemicals sold there, including ammonium nitrate.
Cornyn said he would closely follow the painstaking investigation into the cause of the explosion.
"This is a known, volatile compound, and it has to be handled appropriately, and we'll see as a result of this investigation whether there were mistakes made or not," he said in a conference call Wednesday.
The Associated Press reported that a gap in federal regulations left state and federal officials probing the cause of the explosion in the dark about how much ammonium nitrate — which possibly caused the explosion — was kept at the plant.
A contingent of 70 investigators from the Texas State Fire Marshal's Office and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have descended on the scene of the fire and subsequent explosion that left a crater 93 feet wide and 10 feet deep, according to the fire marshal's office.
ATF and fire marshal investigators have ruled out natural causes.
Cornyn said he sees President Barack Obama's appearance at the memorial service Thursday for 10 first responders and two honorary first responders as a good thing.
"Somebody once called the president the comforter in chief, and I think the president does have an important national role when you have tragedies like this," Cornyn said Wednesday.
He introduced Obama Thursday at the memorial service.

The History of Jazz
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreJazz is the most colorful and varied art form in the world and it was born in one of the most colorful and varied cities, New Orleans. From the seed first planted by slave dances held in Congo Square and nurtured by early ensembles led by Buddy Belden and Joe "King" Oliver, jazz began its long winding odyssey across America and around the world, giving flower to a thousand different forms--swing, bebop, cool jazz, jazz-rock fusion--and a thousand great musicians. Now, in The History of Jazz, Ted Gioia tells the story of this music as it has never been told before, in a book that brilliantly portrays the legendary jazz players, the breakthrough styles, and the world in which it evolved. Here are the giants of jazz and the great moments of jazz history--Jelly Roll Morton ("the world's greatest hot tune writer"), Louis Armstrong (whose O-keh recordings of the mid-1920s still stand as the most significant body of work that jazz has produced), Duke Ellington at the Cotton Club, cool jazz greats such as Gerry Mulligan, Stan Getz, and Lester Young, Charlie Parker's surgical precision of attack, Miles Davis's 1955 performance at the Newport Jazz Festival, Ornette Coleman's experiments with atonality, Pat Metheny's visionary extension of jazz-rock fusion, the contemporary sounds of Wynton Marsalis, and the post-modernists of the Knitting Factory. Gioia provides the reader with lively portraits of these and many other great musicians, intertwined with vibrant commentary on the music they created. Gioia also evokes the many worlds of jazz, taking the reader to the swamp lands of the Mississippi Delta, the bawdy houses of New Orleans, the rent parties of Harlem, the speakeasies of Chicago during the Jazz Age, the after hours spots of corrupt Kansas city, the Cotton Club, the Savoy, and the other locales where the history of jazz was made. And as he traces the spread of this protean form, Gioia provides much insight into the social context in which the music was born. He shows for instance how the development of technology helped promote the growth of jazz--how ragtime blossomed hand-in-hand with the spread of parlor and player pianos, and how jazz rode the growing popularity of the record industry in the 1920s. We also discover how bebop grew out of the racial unrest of the 1940s and '50s, when black players, no longer content with being "entertainers," wanted to be recognized as practitioners of a serious musical form. Jazz is a chameleon art, delighting us with the ease and rapidity with which it changes colors. Now, in Ted Gioia's The History of Jazz, we have at last a book that captures all these colors on one glorious palate. Knowledgeable, vibrant, and comprehensive, it is among the small group of books that can truly be called classics of jazz literature. less

LOWVILLE Volunteers collected a near record amount of garbage, by weight, during this falls fourth annual Black River Trash Bash, thanks in part to several appliances.
Its a shame, said John K. Bartow, executive director of the Tug Hill Commission. There is an ever-increasing recycling market.
Twenty-nine volunteers collected 32 bags of garbage at four different sites in late September and early October during the annual event, organized by Mr. Bartows agency and the Lewis County Soil and Water Conservation District.
While that is the same number of bags as last year, the total weight of the garbage collected was 726 pounds, up from 504.5 pounds in 2012 and only slightly lower than the 735 pounds of trash picked up during the inaugural event in 2010.
Among the items picked up were six appliances, 26 diapers, 42 pieces of construction materials, two tires, 78 tobacco packages, 20 pieces of fishing line, 333 beverage containers, 248 food wrappers and 341 cigarette butts.
The totals, along with specific item information, have been sent to the American Littoral Society for use in devising strategies to combat pollution.
The annual event serves not only to clean up the shoreline of the Black River but also to increase public awareness of the significance it has in all three counties the river goes through, Mr. Bartow said.
While the amount of garbage collected varies from year to year, partly because of differing water flows and runoff, it remains an important event and a way for volunteers to give back to the river, he said.
Its just a tremendous resource in terms of its diversity, Mr. Bartow said.
Cleanup sites and coordinating groups were Lyons Falls and Port Leyden by Lyons Falls ALIVE, Greig by the Lewis County Soil and Water Conservation District, Boonville by the Adirondack Community Advisory League and Watertown by Tug Hill Tomorrow Land Trust.
Nirvana Spring Water donated bottled water for the event, while Whites Lumber donated gloves. The state Department of Transportation also assisted with bag pickup, Mr. Bartow said.

Poor working synchronization between two computers
On one PC (at work, Windows 7 professinal 64, Google Chrome) check some of the tasks as completed, add new tasks.
When I got home (Windows XP professinal, Google Chrome) and see a list of tasks in the browser, as I left them in the morning. All changes made 1-2 hours ago on another computer are not shown.
Change the look (today, 7 days, etc.) and clicking on the logo Todoist (which should update the current view) does not see the current information. At the same time on the phone in the Android app will show relevant information. In addition to Todoist extension for Chrome, and show relevant information. But in the Chrome at the address https://ru.todoist.com/ appears outdated information.
I found only one way to force website to update the displayed information. Change the the interface language from Russian into English and then back on the Russian. After the first change the interface language displays information becomes relevant.
All responses

And changing your car tyres routinely is a must to ensure your own safety. If you are currently having a problem on how to find the best tyre speed rating for your car, well, this article is made just for you. Before you buy that tyres, you need to find out what should be the best and right one for your vehicle.
Know the basics about tyres
If it is your first time to change your tyres, it is a must that you try to study about the different basic of the tyres. You must know the different types, load-capacity, sizes and etc. Through this it will be easier for you to choose what to buy for your own car.
Determine your needs in driving
Knowing your needs in driving and the use of your car is also a great help in finding the best tyres. If you know what your vehicle is for then it would be easy for you to choose the type of tyres you will need for daily use. The types of tyres actually vary depending on its use and what kind of road will you use them.
Choose the right size
You already know that car tyres have different sizes and sizes corresponds to different kinds of car. Knowing the right size of tyre will help you avoid accidents that are sometimes caused by wrong car tyre sizes and your vehicle can also perform better with the right type of tyres.
Choose the right loading rate

Higher load capacity are suggested to avoid tyre explosion or worn out especially during travelling. The right load rate can also help you determine the weight limit that your car can handle.
Purchase on official tyre shops
To ensure the best quality for your car tyres and Pirelli tyres, purchase your tyres at the right shop where the quality of tyres have been proven. If you happen to buy anywhere, tendency is you will buy class A type of tyres and not the original one. Like purchasing any other things, quality is a must to consider especially if low-quality tyres may put you at risk of having car accident.
Make sure that your spare tyre has the same load-capacity
It is already mentioned that the tyre's load capacity is essential and vital to ensure safety to you and other people who might ride in your car. When buying tyres, you also need to consider your spare tyre and that they should have the same tyre size and the same load-capacity. Again this is for your own safety. Why risk yourself to accidents if you can prevent them, right?
Purchasing car tyres for your vehicle may seem to be an easy task especially if you don't happen to have the previous experience. Now, that you already have the idea of what to consider before buying car tyres, may you take your tyres seriously. Again, those tyres are just a tiny part of your car but it can hold your whole life. Buying the right tyre will spare you from having car accidents and will also help you improve your vehicles' performance.
