10 April 2008
John Black has been elected as President of The Royal College of Surgeons of England today and will take up his appointment on 10th July 2008. The appointment is for three years, subject to annual re-election by the College Council.
John Black qualified from Cambridge University via St Thomas's Hospital Medical School in 1968 and obtained the Fellowship in 1973, with an MD (Birmingham) in 1978. He was the second President of ASiT. In 1978 he was appointed Consultant General Surgeon in Worcester, with an interest in vascular surgery but became a "first-wave" laparoscopic surgeon in 1990. He served as the first Medical Director of Worcester Royal Infirmary and chairs the charity that built and runs the Charles Hastings Education Centre. He was Training Programme Director in General Surgery in the West Midlands Region during the change to the Calman system and joined the SAC in 1998, and was Chairman from 2004 to 2007. He was elected to the Council of The Royal College of Surgeons of England in 2003 and in July 2006 became Honorary Treasurer.
Mr William Thomas and Mrs Linda de Cossart have been elected Vice Presidents of the College.
Commenting on his election Mr John Black said,
"I am honoured to have been elected as President of the Royal College of Surgeons of England and congratulate Mr Bill Thomas and Mrs Linda de Cossart on their election as Vice President. As we come from Worcester, Sheffield and Chester, Council has clearly avoided any bias towards London!
My job over the next few years is to maintain the College policy of putting patients first in everything we do. My predecessor Bernie Ribeiro will be a very hard act to follow and I will need help and support from all of you in keeping your College at the heart of surgical affairs."

Art Director Steve Hinckle's birthday was Saturday. Monday he officially started full-time at Launch. Perfect timing.
Steve received his design education at VCU Brandcenter and took a job in Richmond after graduation. He later moved to New Mexico for his second job. Now he continues his affinity for scorching summers by moving to Texas to join Launch.
Steve likes to spend his spare time with his wife Meghan and daughter Audrey. He also enjoys watching sports. Not all sports though, just those where "people are competing against each other to win and make the other one feel bad."
As an art director, Steve takes a particular interest in typefaces. And, aside from discerning between good and bad fonts, he can recognize "a good many" just by looking.
Get an even better look into Steve's psyche:
Q: Coffee or tea?
A: Depends on the time of day.
Q: Do you have a personal website?
A: www.SteveHinckle.com
Q: Favorite 80s music?
A: I liked the Joshua Tree album a lot.
Q: Staples or paper clips?
A: Staples.
Q: Have you ever set off a rocket?
A: Yes.
Q: Do you feel bigger now that you're in Texas?
A: No.
We feel bigger now that Steve's joined the growing Launch agency. Welcome to Launch, Steve!

GORHAM- Senior guard Lee Vazquez (Attleboro, Mass./Wonsocket (RI)) nailed a buzzer-beating three-pointer from well beyond the arc to lead the Westfield State University Owls to an 80-79 win over the University of Southern Maine Huskies in a non-conference men's basketball game Saturday afternoon at Hill Gymnasium in Gorham, Maine.
With their third straight win the Owls improve to 9-1 overall. The loss snaps a three-game winning streak for Southern Maine and drops its record to 6-3 overall.
Vazquez scored a team-high 22 points to lead four Owls in double-figures. Senior forward Ryan White (Philadelphia, Pa./Franklin Learning Center) added a monster double-double with 18 poitns and 14 rebounds, while senior forward Matt Devine (Pembroke, Mass.) and senior guard Ken Reed (Mission Hill, Mass./Reading) each scored 13 points. Devine grabbed eight rebounds and Reed had six steals.
Southern Maine senior guard Alex Kee (Bath, Maine/Morse) led all scorers with a career-high 29 points on 7-for-14 shooting including four three-pointers. Junior guard Conor Sullivan (Scarborough, Maine) added 17 points and five rebounds. Junior guard Brandon Tomah (Princeton, Maine/Calais) added 16 points, five rebounds, four steals and three assists.
Trailing by as many as 18 points midway through the first half, Southern Maine rallied to within a possession of the Owls, 41-38, at the halftime break. White had 10 points and 10 rebounds in the opening stanza to pace the Owls who finished the first half shooting an outstanding 52.9 percent (18-for-34), while Sullivan scored 12 of his 17 for the Huskies.
A three-pointer from Tomah knotted the score up at 41 points each in the opening minute of the second half before both teams settled in for a grind over the next 12 minutes. Following Tomah's three, the Owls and Huskies exchanged baskets and despite six tie scores over the next eight minutes, Westfield State never trailed. After one of two free throws from Devine with 8:19 to play, Westfield State led 57-55, before Kee scored on a layup for a 57-57 game.
Kee's layup was the first of nine unanswered points for the Huskies as USM assumed a 64-57 lead with 6:12 to play. Kee figured heavily in the 9-0 run scoring seven of the Huskies points on a layup, a three-pointer and a pair of free throws.
The Owls countered with a quick 5-0 spurt on a layup from Devine and a three from Vazquez to pull within two, 64-62, with five minutes left as both teams again battled back and forth. The Owls pulled to within a point of the Huskies three times over the next three minutes and trailed USM 71-70 after a Devine layup with 1:54 remaining.
USM extended its lead to five points, 77-72, with 28 seconds to play on a 6-2 run on six of seven free throws, including four from Kee, before Vazquez found White in the paint for a short jumper to trail 77-74 deficit and 21 seconds to play. Forced to put the Huskies on the line, USM made one-of-two free throws on its next possession to lead 78-74. Sophomore forward Dan Johnson (Belchertown, Mass.) then hit a clutch three with five seconds to play for his only points of the game to give the Owls life. Sending Southern Maine to the free throw line again, the Huskies made the second of two to lead 79-77 before Vazquez launched his game-winner.
USM returns to action on Saturday, December29 against Claremont at the Salem State Holiday Classic.

Merry Christmas gun permit holders in three counties of New York. Your information has been printed in THIS NEWSPAPER along with a helpful interactive map.
The map indicates the addresses of all pistol permit holders in Westchester and Rockland counties. Each dot represents an individual permit holder licensed to own a handgun — a pistol or revolver. The data does not include owners of long guns — rifles or shotguns — which can be purchased without a permit. Being included in this map does not mean the individual at a specific location owns a weapon, just that they are licensed to do so.
Data for all permit categories, unrestricted carry, premises, business, employment, target and hunting, is included, but permit information is not available on an individual basis.
To create the map, The Journal News submitted Freedom of Information requests for the names and addresses of all pistol permit holders in Westchester, Rockland and Putnam. By state law, the information is public record.
Putnam is still putting together its records and could not immediately provide any data. The map will be updated when that data is released
I think if I didn't have a permit I might be a little worried that criminals would be doing their research. On the other hand what does it matter what people do if it is a perfectly legal activity? Some people have retaliated by printing the name and address of the editor of the newspaper on-line. I wouldn't stoop to her level, but that info is out there if you are so inclined to find it.
I worry about the kind of nation we live in where people think that this is appropriate behavior.
Meanwhile a 12 year old girl in Oklahoma defends herself. No word on what self-rightous assholes in the northeast have to say about that.

|Danielle "GirlyMan" Quayshon Branton
Branton was first arrested as an adult last year.
2011 Charges:
Distribution of Crack, three counts of Manufacture/Distribution of Crack.
Branton must have had a craptastic attorney. He pled guilty to all the charges. Judge Stephanie Mcdonald gave him a break on the sentencing, though.
She sentenced him to time served on the three manufacturing charges. On the other distribution charge she sentenced Branton under the YOA to a term not to exceed ZERO to six years with the balance suspended for five years. There is no mention of probation.
So, was this one of those "if you get in trouble again the sentence re-activates" types of things? Or did Judge Mcdonald just let Branton go with no consquences at all?

PFPS- Knee pain: Cause and solution!
If you notice a gradual dull aching sensation in the knee with intermittent sharp pain especially with negotiating stairs, along with crepitus in the knee when you bend and straighten the knee, you may be suffering from Patella Femoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS).
PFPS which used to be known as Chondro-Malacia Patella (CMP) , Anterior Knee Pain and Runners' Knee are all very similar conditions. These conditions and symptoms can occur due to a varying degree of wear and tear (degeneration) of the cartilage behind the knee cap, also known as the patella femoral joint.
What are the main contributing factors?
Three main factors attributed to cause increased degeneration of this cartilage are:
1. Muscle tightness:
The quadricep muscles and the Ilio Tibial Band (ITB) tend to be tight in people with PFPS. If the quadricep muscles are tight, it has a tendency to pull the knee cap much closer to the thigh bone. This increase in pressure leads to grinding of the knee cap against the thigh bone causing the degeneration of cartilage.
The ITB has attachments to the outer side of the knee cap via a connective tissue known as the lateral retinaculum. The knee cap tends to sit comfortably in a congruent position within the thigh bone. However when the ITB is tight it pulls the knee cap in an outward direction shifting the knee cap away from, and out of its natural groove.
This slight shift or tilt increases the pressure or loading behind the knee cap leading to degeneration of cartilage and pain.
2. Muscle Strength:
Imagine jumping and landing on a straight knee compared to a bent knee. There is definitely more impact that goes through the knee in the first instance because your muscles are not helping to absorb the impact whereas a bent knee allows the muscles to contract and dampen the impact on the joint.
Similarly if the quadriceps, are not strong enough, your knee joints takes the slack with every step that you walk, run, or stairs that you climb.
The knee joint in this situation will be grinding excessively as muscles are not effectively stabilising the joint and supporting a person's body weight.
3. Biomechanical faults:
Flat feet (poor arches), knocked knees, knee cap position (rotation/ tilt) and increased Q angle are all factors that result in an imbalance of muscles around the knee joint and mal-alignment of the knee cap, that may accelerate the degeneration of the cartilage in the patellafemoral joint.
So what can you do to solve your knee pain?
Treatment for PFPS would entail stretching exercises for the quadricep muscles and ITB and strengthening exercises for the muscles around the knee joint in particular the quadriceps. In addition getting appropriate footwear to support the arches of your feet or considering customised orthotics to correct your biomechanical faults would also be strongly recommended. If your keen athlete, or struggling with pain, you may even want to consider a knee support for symptoms reduction and control.

AES E-Library
Autodirective Dual Microphone
The paper describes Autodirective Dual Microphone (ADM) technology and its applications. ADM digital signal processing technology developed by Alango Ltd. is a far-field, adaptive beamforming technology that uses only two closely spaced omnidirectional sound pressure sensors. ADM technology provides the optimal and variable directivity in every frequency region. The adaptation time is very fast leading to very good improvement in signal-to-noise ratio in fast changing noisy environments. Contrary to regular directional microphones, an ADM technology based microphone is much less sensitive to wind noises and does not a proximity effect. Its DSP implementation is simple requiring very modest computational resources.

Mount Haleakala // Nikon D800e + Zeiss 21/2,8 On a second trip up to Mount Haleakala, we decided to try shooting in the bright moonlight. The lens flare, milky way, clouds, and the road were a perfect setting for the evening. This was one super long exposure, minor white balance edits, and Issa driving the rental down the road from the summit for us to capture the shot.
Standard Weather
A warm day in San Francisco is a sure sign of a nice foggy sunset.
Dreams Below
Being at the top of Mount Tamalpais never disappoints. It's always epic in some way or another from this vantage point.
Tree Shadows
Mount Tamalpais, California Found a good line of trees where the fog was just above, and waited for the sun to get into position. I absolutely love it when you have a vision of what the photo will turn out to be, but still completely blown away when it happens.
A shot less traveled
There are few angles of the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge that haven't been photographed a million times, and I believe this may be one of them. The underside of this bridge is not as flashy as the top, but it has a sense of beauty in itself.
The bay bridge going west from Oakland to San Francisco is a fantastic sight at sunset during rush hour. Red tail lights only makes for quite a scene.
Shadows of the city
Damn perfect angle, thank you sun for being awesome.
How do you empty out Crissy Field in San Francisco on a beautiful day? Throw in an extremely strong and ice piercing wind. What seemed like a horrible day turned out to be perfect. The wind added drama, the chill kept the crowds away. We had the golden gate, the beach, and the sun all to ourselves. These are highlights from the Crissy Field portion of an engagement shoot I did recently with Michelle and Tim. More on the blog: artchang.com
Islands in the clouds
The fog has been intense in San Francisco lately. What better than to get above them for sunset. Mount Tamalpais never fails to amaze.
Piano above the city
Life changes when you put a piano on a hillside, after a long week of work, at the most golden moments of our existence.
Night Sky
Beautiful night sky in Lake Tahoe on Sunday. A few high clouds, and a ton of stars. This was shot at a high ISO (640) at 30 seconds of exposure time.
Cloudy Tree
One of my favorite solo trees on Mount Tamalpais. Thanks to the lovely Issa for standing so still beside it.
Perfect Storm
Checked the web cams, doppler radar, and weather reports. Clear horizon, thunderstorms, and a beautiful view from Mount Tamalpais. Grabbed my camera, jumped in the car, and sped up here for the shot. Glad I decided to go, it was a beautiful sight. More on the blog: blog.artchang.com
Mountain Windows
I knew there wouldn't be any fog this evening, and tasked myself to find a good shot framed by some natural leaves before I even got up to the mountain. I think this worked out well!
Cloudy Aurora
The clouds almost looked like aurora borealis above San Francisco.

Blank T-shirts, shoes and art supplies littered Room 102 in Fernald Hall Wednesday while students filtered in to decorate apparel with words of hope and respect.
Safe Campus Initiative and Rape Response Services teamed up to organize Take a Walk in My Shoes to raise awareness of domestic violence and sexual assault.
The T-shirts will be sent to a community event at the State House in Augusta on April 2. They will be displayed with other decorated shirts that are being collected from every other college campuses in Maine by the Campus Clothesline Project to kick off Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
Carey Nason of Safe Campus Initiative organized the event.
"It's an opportunity for people to be able to express their thoughts and opinions in a creative way," Nason said. "Things people make today will become part of a larger collection, and that is really cool."
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and this year focuses on college campuses. The Clothesline Project in Maine is an effort organized by the Maine Coalition Against Sexual Assault and the member sexual assault crisis and support centers.
"The goal is obviously awareness," said Tina Voigt, a University of Maine graduate who works for Rape Response. "The thing that goes with raising awareness is the reality that sexual assault is something that happens in more places than just college campuses. Decorating T-shirts makes things more personal."
different ways. Being able to participate in an activity such as Take a Walk in My Shoes allows people to express their feelings toward the issue of sexual assault and domestic violence in an individual and imaginative way.
Fliers were plastered around campus to promote the event, and students were asked to bring old shoes to Fernald Hall. These shoes and T-shirts were decorated with stories of hope, survival, and freedom from domestic violence and sexual assault. Roughly 25 students attended the meeting.
Nicole Cidorowich is a second-year sociology student who attended the event.
"I came here after seeing the fliers as well as to work on a project for my family violence class," Cidorowich said. "I'm glad to be a part of this."
The Clothesline Project was started in Cape Cod, Mass., in 1990 to bring attention to the violence that occurs against women and to help with the healing process of survivors of domestic violence or sexual assault.
In 1998 the Maine Coalition Against Sexual Assault organized the Clothesline Project in Maine, and has collected hundreds of T-shirts from campuses statewide. They are displayed regularly as an attempt to bring the issue to society's attention. The initiative is the first statewide campus Clothesline Project effort in Maine.
After shirts are collected, they are hung on clotheslines as recognition of the violent experiences that have occurred in the past. At UMaine, shirts will be hung in Fernald Hall and throughout the university mall if the weather permits it.

It's been a crazy August, and although it was fun, I am kind of glad it is over. Before I left for my trip, I was down to 202 pounds, losing 7 in two weeks. I don't know what I weigh now, because of TOM, and am usually carrying extra water weigh... Read more

Yep, you heard it right. This is where I ALWAYS quit. At least for the last 10 years. I get down under 220, my "fat clothes" start fitting again- albeit wearing them would cut off all circulation to my lower body so I wouldn't actually be caught... Read more

I recently came across yet another free service provided by the Government that will be helpful to business owners expanding overseas. The program is called "Direct Link" and is administered by the Department's Bureau of Economic and Business Affairs. It consists of an ongoing series of teleconferences that are hosted by U.S. Ambassadors and other consular officials serving in the relevant country. Each teleconference focuses on current opportunities for U.S. companies in the featured market and addresses the unique challenges of doing business in that country, offering up practical advice on how to mitigate potential risks. Recent Direct Link teleconference topics include "Opportunities for U.S. Companies in Oman's New Airports" and "Intellectual Property Rights and the South China Market: Basics for Protecting Your IP Rights."
Specific information about Direct Link teleconferences and the countries and opportunities they feature can be found on the State Department website devoted to the Direct Link Program.
On the site, you can subscribe to receive emails about future teleconferences, submit questions, or suggest future teleconference topics. It's a great opportunity to take advantage of free business insight provided by our American representatives abroad. Also, don't forget about the Commerce Department programs about export.gov and at the Advocacy Center. Of course nothing beats specific tailored advice from your lawyer or strategic advisor. What we do is use these resources for opportunities and then supplement what is provided with individually tailored meetings with the local government and private sector representatives after we have done our due diligence on potential opportunities and partners.
Have a great day,

|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: INO Treatment
The treatment group will receive iNO, combined with O2 or room air, until 33 weeks corrected age.
Drug: inhaled nitric oxide
The amount of gas will be carefully controlled and adjusted to the level that best improves the function of subject's lungs.

Drug: inhaled nitric oxide
The amount of gas will be carefully controlled and adjusted to the level that best improves the function of subject's lungs. The subject will remain on inhaled nitric oxide until he/she reaches 33 weeks of gestation if assigned to the treatment arm, or until the 8th day of the study if he/she is assigned to the control arm.
Other Name: INODrug: oxygen
The amount of gas will be carefully controlled and adjusted to the level that best improves the function of the subject's lungs. Subjects in the control arm of the study will receive oxygen beginning on the 8th day of the study until he/she reaches 33 weeks of gestation.
Other Name: O2
Detailed Description:
With the advances in modern neonatal intensive care medicine in the last 20 years, survival of extremely preterm infants weighing less than 1500g (< 3 lbs, 5 oz) has risen markedly. However, with this increased survival has come a marked increase in the number of infants with serious neurodevelopmental disabilities: Premature infants with birth weights less than 1500g who survive to go home are at significant risk for serious neurodevelopmental problems: cognitive and motor delays, blindness, deafness, and cerebral palsy. In a recent randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial, we assessed whether giving mechanically ventilated preterm infants inhaled nitric oxide gas (iNO) for 1 week after birth decreased the incidence of death and chronic lung disease. An unanticipated outcome of that study (Schreiber et. al. 2003) and a subsequent study of those infants at 2 years of age (Mestan et. al. 2005) was that premature infants treated with inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) have improved neurodevelopmental outcomes and physical growth at 2 years corrected age, compared with placebo-treated infants (Mestan et. al. 2005). INO therapy, therefore, appears to be a new treatment to protect the premature brain during development outside the womb. The overall goal of this application is understand the efficacy of iNO treatment in improving neurodevelopmental outcomes in at-risk premature infants.

Through a play on transparency and reflection, earthworks and rugged textures, this family house blends into the sloped pine forest of the weathered Breton coast. The initial request was to fully enjoy the views onto the oceanic environment from inside and outside and by all weather conditions. The resulting square glass pavilion, set on a half buried masonry base, offers a sheltered viewpoint onto Brittany's infamously varying and beautiful skyscape, while the lower level organises the five bedrooms' views and access onto the garden and the bay beyond.
Both levels are clearly differentiated in their construction methods and material qualities. Above, the steel structure, enclosed in a semi reflective glass envelope visually merges with the surrounding landscape during the daytime and acts as a light box in the evening. The blurring of boundaries between inside and outside is reinforced by the continuity of the slate floor tiles' pattern and even level from the common room to the terrace. The glass pavilion's open plan common room is served by an off-centred wood clad box containing the kitchen, lavatory and storage space. The adjoining glass and wood staircase and its continuous wall of shelves wall lead into the lower private quarters anticipating their warmer material qualities.
As a complement to the very open and minimalist architecture above, the lower level meets all the requirements of a habitat for intimacy, comfort and convenience. The floor finish changes to a warmer oak flooring. The central hallway, sunlit on both ends by the stairwell and a glass ceiling, connects the bedroom area to various underground utility rooms. The linear arrangement along the seaside façade provides all bedroom suites with equal views. The masonry plinth's exterior walls are clad in coloured schist stone mirroring the material quality of the surrounding pine trees and ground cover, thus merging the house into the natural environment.
The vast interior spaces translate on the outside to a mirage-like vision. From the access above, the house appears as just the glass pavilion set on the slope, the lower level nestled, invisible, into the slope, whereas from the bay, the glass's reflection of the surrounding pine trees and the dark reddish schist cladding of the base make the house entirely disappear into the coastline. The landscape, designed by Breton landscape architect Erwan Tymen, extends the architecture into the landscape through the use of linear retaining walls, mineral textures of gravel and stone elements, and the dark reddish colors of bark ground cover.
The technical details are as follows: a composite waterproofing and insulating material on the rooftop terrace, special reflective double pane insulating glass facades and a rainwater collection system which provides 40% of water needs in the household; under floor heating with an air pump.

Don and Mary Lou Keigher are celebrating their 66th wedding anniversary on March 2 at their home in Aspen Ridge Lodge, where they recently moved. In 2012, they are also celebrated their 40th year living in Los Alamos.
Don and Mary Lou were married March 2, 1946, in LaJolla, Calif., where Don served in the Navy. In 1953, their young family moved to Richland,Wash., where Don was a fire protection engineer with the Atomic Energy Commission until 1969. After three years in Washington, D.C., they moved west again to White Rock.
They both were employed at LANL until their retirements in1985. They have been active in Rotary Club, the Los Alamos Historical Museum, the Betty Earhart Senior Center and the IHM Catholic Parish. In 1995, they moved into the new condo building at 1001 Oppenheimer Place downtown, where they have enjoyed many dear friends and wonderful neighbors.
Mary Lou says that, "One of the pleasant surprises of moving to Aspen Ridge, an assisted living facility, has been to rediscover so many other friends we thought had moved away, who are still here!" Both old friends and new ones gathered from so many different walks of life, over those wondrous 40 years.
All our love on this very special day, Kira, Kathleen, Aaron, Sharon, Sheila and Charlie.

JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) - Shane Richards scored 16 points as Manhattan held off Saint Peter's 55-53 in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference play Friday night to snap a four-game losing streak.
Manhattan, playing its seventh contest without injured All-MAAC guard George Beamon, pulled ahead 42-41 on Richards' 3-pointer with 9:27 remaining and built its own six-point cushion at 55-49.
After the Peacocks (6-7, 1-2) closed to 55-53 with 2 minutes left, neither team could score. Yvon Raymond missed two free throws with 1:01 left, and Desi Washington had a jumper blocked by Rhamel Brown and missed a 3-pointer with 1 second left.
Richards was 4 of 9 from long range while Manhattan made 9 of 27 3-pointers as a team. Brown added 11 points for his fourth straight double-digit performance.
Washington led Saint Peter's with 15 points.

Keller Williams' latest release GRASS is a delightfully bizarre collection of anything-but-traditional bluegrass songs. With old buddy and award-winning flat picker Larry Keel on guitar, and Larry's beautiful rock-solid in-the-pocket acoustic bass playing wife, Jenny Keel, GRASS is an organic and airy acoustic record. Its 10 songs, originals and unexpected covers tunes, yield to a pure love of music. Available ONLY at www.kellerwilliams.net and at a live show near you.
thank god TAMPA and ORLANDO !!!! It's about damn time!!! Now hw better bring some new sh*t. If I hear freaker, boob job, or best feeling I may just walk
@ the tabernacle the night after umphreys...sweeeet!!!
yes he certainly needs to do some new things change the approach or somethingmany folks are losing interest recentlywe still love him butalthough a lot of the things he is doing are great sometimes itis to wierd to come togetheron the same old songandwell I think with his musical capabilitieshe will eventually go another directionusing what his shows have become and presenting it a bit differentlymaybe with a bandmaybe this is just what I want
actually his album Grass is also on Rhapsodywww.rhapsody.com
oh, and of course the album is nasty 8-D go buy it
I used to really enjoy going to see him over 10 years ago. When he first started looping I thought that it was extremely creative and innovative, and he even inspired me to buy a lexicon jam man to use in writing my own material. He is a superb musician. I have only one turnoff- as his popularity has grown his head has become swollen to the point that it might burst at any moment. LOSE THE EGO- YOU'RE REALLY NOT ANY COOLER THAN ANYONE ELSE. keep it real
kdub is god
Keller has an ego? I've seen him about 10 times since discovering him at bonnaroo 05 (along with Particle right before him....Sick!). And all I see is a chill dude having fun jamming on his toys. How bout a Keller Williams Incident for New Years!!WOOHOO!!!
Keller come to chicago we miss ya, how bout another Keller Mcgee new year. 3 shows at the Aragon Baby.
i don't want to join the discussion about who is cool and who is not, or who plays good music and who does not. i am just happy to get some jams to europe for a change! jam in the dam is just not enough, and in the end it is an american festival anyway (not that i mind, don't get me wrong, but from what i heard there is not many europeans in the melkweg on that weekend). and xavier rudd sounds very interesting as well, i never had a chance to see him before. i will try and catch this tour in paris and am very excited about it indeed!!!!
I'll catch ATL and Raliegh, and also, when is he gonna drop "YOUTH", the new studio album I've been hearing about for a year, I'm gettin antsy....
keller is the fan's muscian. Its like he's been there and now he's up there, he might as well be your buddy standing next to you at the show. It sucks that just as I am moveing from florida partly because noone ever comes down him and a bunch of other people decide that suddenly florida is a cool place to play, btw danknugget your right he does play the same setlists in fl, at least he teased wilson at the end of victory song at 10lkf
Hey shanky, kellers "Youth" is now called "Dreams" and features Bob Wier, The String Cheese Incident, John Scofield, Charlie Hunter, Victor Wooten and more. Its expected to come out early Feb. Sounds fuckin sick.Sorry joolzen, no Keller Mcgee cuz Umphreys have announced their nye plans with north mississippi allstars, los lobos, and taj Mahal. Should be another awesome nye in that awesome fuckin city (unless SCI or KWI plays on the east)
cheese oct6 n7 then k-dub on the 8th in asheville sick, hopefully we'll get some kw incident on the 7th

There's No Better Time Than The Present
I doubt many people would disagree that the last five years have been filled with a great deal of changes. Some will argue these changes have been for the better, others will argue the opposite. There is one thing, however, that simply isn't debatable any longer, and that is that our national debt isn't sustainable without putting the economic well-being of future generations in considerable jeopardy.
While the 17 trillion dollar figure (and rising at the astonishing rate of $8-10 thousand dollars per second!) is truly staggering—and simply unfathomable to most–it appears that very few are willing even to attempt to address the issue, for fear of political repercussions, real or imagined. The fact that inflation today is "tame," due strictly to the way it's measured today, only serves to allow the chattering class to boast it's "under control." The simple fact of the matter is that, if inflation were measured in the same manner as it was in the late 70's, it would be higher today than it was then (12% annually).
The manner in which the Federal Reserve is using the quantitative easing, pumping money into the government coffers, and keeping interest rates artificially low for the banks, further masks the real problem. We all know–as does Wall Street–that this particular "gravy train" will have to end at some point. That's the point where the economic "house of cards" will collapse. And while the rich will be able to shelter their assets for the most part, the poor and middle class will feel the full brunt of the damage.
What I am suggesting is that, while we're doing all of the extraordinary things that we are to keep the economy afloat, we must put the federal government's role in our daily lives under the microscope. is to do a very careful examination of the Federal Government and the role it plays in our everyday life with a microscope. I'm not suggesting a "meat cleaver" approach, but a reasoned and honest assessment that considers the needs of the country as a whole, one that results in real, realistic, and sustainable reform.
To be frank, I'd like to see the Affordable Care Act repealed in its entirety, but that's not going to happen with the current federal government. However, a delay of the individual mandate coinciding with the extension of the employer mandate is neither unreasonable nor unwise. We need to face the fact that the program simply is not ready for prime time. The question is, why are some so afraid that if it isn't implemented in its current, flawed state, that it won't be implemented at all? After all, President Obama isn't going to sign a bill eradicating it, nor does Congress have the votes to override a veto. Given the demonstrated failings of the program, it simply makes no sense not to delay its implementation.
We all agree that there should be a safety net for the folks in this country who truly need it, and that agreement generally stretches across party lines. But in all honesty, why do we need fifty-seven different programs for food stamps? That plethora of programs may keep members of the federal bureaucracy in work, but, honestly, wouldn't it be better to consolidate those programs and spend the money saved on other programs that might actually help those in need, rather than on still more paper-shufflers? Those workers would, of necessity, be inconvenienced, but with so little concern for the private sector in evidence, why should federal workers be exempt from the policy decisions that affect everyone else? When government workers, including elected representatives, must live with the effects of government's policies, it may well spur the bipartisan cooperation that everyone claims to want.
Our country has become so polarized over the last forty years that it's almost unrecognizable, and both major political parties are to blame for that. This forum is representative of that polarization. It's collapsed into petty talking points, poll-driven, hard line partisanship, a virtual slugfest of personal attacks in which anything of real import has long since faded away to unimportance, and real, meaningful debate is a thing of the past. Sounds an awful lot like DC, and the country at large, doesn't it?
I'm as guilty as the next guy in many ways, but I'd like to see the situation change. We may not reach agreement on everything, but surely we can find some common ground, things upon which all can agree. Will that influence those in DC? Not unless we demand that they listen, and that will require all of us, on both sides, because the bottom line is that our country is broken (and broke). We can choose to work together to fix the problems an give future generations a real chance at a brighter future, or we can choose to pursue our own selfish desires and doom them to misery. Whichever course we choose, there's some tough sledding ahead but how tough it is depends solely on the decisions we—you and I—make today.
I could include all sorts of links that support what I've said, but I have to say that, simply put, this site has reached such a low that it simply isn't worth the effort. It's my hope that can change, both here and in the country as a whole.

Nah, the Chinese wouldn't dare to something like this. Would they?
Oh, well. I guess it's no big deal since Obie gave the Russians most of our Defensive Missile System secrets long ago.
And the beat goes on.
Bullcrap………..to put it simply,.
which part specifically ?
Yep, but you trust him a lot more than I do. Given that he has his "flexibility" now, and his track record of telling the truth is just a little south of honest.
ANd since when did congressional resistance stop him from doing anything he wanted to do?
Nah, you're absolutely right. Barry wouldn't dare run an end run on the Pentagon or Congress. I stand absolutely corrected and will trust him to always do the right thing for the United States.
u dont even trust that his birt certificate is real .. forgive us for not sharing in yer ire
Its a nice parody here, unfortunately it is one that is believed to be non-fiction by Rev. Wright and Barry Soetoro.
Looks like Barry didn't "believe the Pentagon", so he just decided to use his fairy tale about the anti-Islamic video to explain away the Benghazi attack. Hmm…Barry and Hillary on a different (political?) page than the Pentagon. Whoda thunkit.
nevermind that one of the actual attackers said it was the video … u and foxnews just know … /giggle
…… testing……
Thats what Barry has been doing for the past five years! Time to stop the testing!
Oh, I'm sorry. I guess you were trying to test the CG site. My bad.
Schecky claus ladies and gentlemen !!!!
i didnt post that .. kinda strange . funny , but strange none the less
So the "court" made this ruling? I think not. I think a human being made the ruling and it is high time to start taking names.
That's right NSA, and IRS. I said it is time to start taking names. Don't like it? Then come for a visit so we can have an eyeball to eyeball and toe to toe discussion about the subject.
And in in the name of your 'anointed one', let me end that with "PERIOD"!
And here is the "ruling". Of course, I'm sure the liberals will have a 'reasonable excuse' for defending the ruling.
Looks like Allen West has his own perception of what a racist is. His discussion is straight to the point and I tend to agree with him on this one.
"This is my clear and succinct message to white Americans. How long will it be before 'you people' realize you have elevated someone to the office of president who abjectly despises you – not to mention his henchman Holder. Combined they are the most vile and disgusting racists – not you," he wrote."
As usual, the truth has finally come out about the manufactured lies of the administration concerning Benghazi. Yes, the administration LIED and the lie was a coordinated LIE told purely for political purposes during the run up to the 2012 Election. Just the same as the manufactured labor statistics on the unemployment rate just prior to the election, the LIE was a cheap political maneuver.
"Strong confirmation of King's version of events has just come to light, as newly declassified documents show top defense officials briefed Obama that a terrorist attack was underway in Benghazi not long after it began.
During a classified, closed-door hearing last year, Gen. Carter Ham, who was responsible for U.S. forces in North Africa, testified that he very quickly got to the point and told then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, that it was a terrorist attack and not a protest.
Panetta and Dempsey then met immediately with Obama."
So now we know our administration is full of lying racists. How does that grab you?
For those who think the economy is doing just fine, this article should be enlightening. But, you have to read it to understand why the economy sucks and the "recovery" is a myth.
"What lies in front of us is daunting. Despite the dismal jobs total, the unemployment rate dropped from 7 percent to 6.7 percent. Yet the true nature of that seeming paradox is no longer lost on the public, as more and more Americans are becoming aware that such a statistic represents the reality that millions of Americans have either retired, or simply given up looking for a job. As a result, they are no longer counted as "unemployed." If those "missing" Americans were part of the equation, the unemployment rate would be 10.2 percent.
The December numbers were especially brutal: a staggering 347,000 Americans dropped out of the labor force, raising the annual total to 535,000, and lowering the overall labor participation rate from 63 percent to 62.8 percent. That number represents a new 35-year low, hitting a level not seen since 1978.
It also represents almost 92 million Americans who are not working."
Now this is interesting since Ohio was a critical state in the re-election of Barry in 2012.
"According to the Ohio State Constitution no one can be forced or fined to sign up for healthcare. This includes, but is not limited to individuals, businesses, doctors, no one! Nor can they be fined, taxed, penalized, or forced to pay by wage withholding. Whether intentional or not, the state of Ohio has given every person, business, hospital, doctor in that state the legal basis for not having to engage, nor be involved with the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare."
The other 49 states need to do the same thing.
Well, it is now obvious to me that only one of two things has happened.
First, the IRS, NSA, and DHS have hijacked CG-13 and have given me a bogus website on which to post.
If that is the case, bring it on traitors.
Now the second possibility is that the Rapture has occurred and I will miss my CG-13 friends. However there is one issue that makes this second possibility seem improbable. And that is the absence of LB and EA. If the rapture has occurred, I can understand my presence here but I cannot explain the absence of LB and Ea, unless they now have the mark of the beast and are part of the liberal/progressive Anti-Christ army.
Is there anyone else out there who was "Left Behind" but me and my wife's 'devil cats'?
And as for all the stuff on the TV now from Fox News, it was all pre-recorded, so I'll take it with a grain of salt.
… / giggle …
More antichrist talk eh ? Go figure ….!
more strangers posting as me …
juss let it be known , i dont know who that is or how hardcore its gonna get , but that aint me ..

It seems uneducated sellers through the baby out with the bath water on this one. The secondary came at the same time all biotechs were slammed by Hillary fear. Low float + biotech plunge = bargain prices for CXRX.
S&P Revises Concordia Healthcare Outlk To Pos; Rtgs Afrmd
Concordia coverage resumed with an Outperform at RBC Capital
RBC Capital resume coverage on Concordia with an Outpeform rating and an $86 price target on shares. The firm believes the exceptional recent weakness in Concordia shares is unwarranted and as such would be aggressive buyers and notes the pending AMCo acquisition, diversifies its global revenue base further away from the U.S.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Wow this is stunning fall after the $65 announcement. I think this is a case of the throwing out the baby and the bath water. This us unfairly being caught up in the overall biotech panic caused by Hillary Clinton's comments.
CXRX is actually making money. And they announced the $65 secondary, which should have been the floor instead of new resistance.
No doubt the low float is contributing to this 2 day plunge. Also Friday's buyers are todays sellers.
Sentiment: Buy
Sientra U.S. supply should not be impacted from halt, says Piper Jaffray.
This is such a low float stock at 5M, it is easily moved by good or bad news.
I guess market didn't like the pricing. LOL. I little manipulation for a low float, don't ya think? LOL
there is no market stops on a huge rise in the morning. My experience is that if there are not shares to short for a stock when good news comes out, there is nothing to stop an influx of buyers.
Sentiment: Buy
JPMorgan analyst Sterling Auty attributes today's pullback in shares of Synchronoss Technologies (SNCR) to a research note from Baird talking about the potential loss of Verizon (VZ) as a cloud customer. The comments come after the wireless carrier changed the pricing in the Verizon cloud offering. Auty sees "no chance" of Synchronoss losing Verizon as a customer in the near-term since the wireless carrier recently renewed its contract with the company for multiple years. He views today's selloff as a "significant overreaction" and recommends buying Synchronoss at current levels. Shares are off their lows but remain down $5.91 to $31.48 in morning trading
Shorts are controlling this now. It is easy to manipulate a low float stock.
Some capitulation has just occured taking this ZUMZ just under $15
Sentiment: Buy
Doubtful it will get back to 18 given magnitude of loss. Any nearterm pops will be sold as day traders licking their wounds and clearing their position.
Having said that 29 million is a low float and ZUMZ usually trades only 400k/day. So the combination could result in a quick rise to offset some of the plunge.
Of course it missed. The magnitude of the drop far exceeds their miss.
wow, is this ever a bargain now. I am not a shopper of Zumiez, but whenever I pass it in the mall it is busy.
The current PPS has dropped the forward earnings to 9.56 and PEG to 1.21. The PE is below a reasonable level now and implies that even though they missed earnings, the PPS has become an attractive entry point now.
Sentiment: Buy
43% of CHKE's paltry revenue came from Target. The president selling 10000 shares in June was a warning.
I suspect Wunderlich's review was prior to Target dropping CHKE, since Wunderlich's announcment does not even mention CHKE losing Targe and 43% of its business.
Could easily plunge under $10

yep, thinking the same. Any excuse to sell. I would not be surprised to see upgrades in the am.
People still looking for big beats....Forward PE was 24... AMBA is not trading at a premium at all based on Forwaerd PE. I still like the gross margins....
Ambarella sees Q3 revenue $90M-$93M, consensus $92.33M
Ambarella sees Q3 non-GAAP gross margins 62.5%-64%
Finally the downtrend has been broke. With last week stablizing above $10 and now with today's counter market move, SUNE is poised for a significant short covering rally.
Over 80M shares short...wow! That is a staggering amount.
Not sure how much real potential is here. We'll see how soon the dump after the pump occurs. This morning? or a week from now?
How many people a year get tummy tucks? What is the potential revenue? Looks like a niche market at first glance.
It probably should not have been at $2 a year ago. That was a thinly traded pop. Revenues back then did not justify the price. Now there is some wood behind the arrow and $2 may be realistic after next qtr results.
Sentiment: Buy
LOL ... you missed the point. TAPM has moved out of its trading range and is now in a new range. It was not going to go any higher than .60 in the near term.
The move and retrace is all healthy.
Regarding a pump.... it is starting to consistently improve it revenue at a steady clip each qtr. That is not a pump or fabricated. Recent pps was based on latest qtr results. Next move up will rely on future qtr results, which are trending higher.
Sentiment: Buy
Another millions already today. TAPM is getting noticed. It needs to stay above .60 for its next move. TAPM has tested .60 twice in last two days.
Sentiment: Buy

Trainer in MI. forbids Serpa Holsters in his class

Quite a few trainers are not allowing Serpas. It is quite easy to say that here is a rule and if it is followed then you won't have trouble.
But that is the law and order mentality of the gun world for some and flies against the reality of human factors research. A holster might be prone to screw ups do to operator failure to follow the rule. Rant that they should, sensei master - but that doesn't always happen. Stress, undertraining, etc. - do lead to accidents and a trainer doesn't need to stop a class or stop a match to watch the Life-flight heliocopter arrive.
So it's ideological position against the real world of human performance. In almost every area where human factors cause mishaps - someone says follow the rules, blah, blah - however if the gadget had an affordance for accidents with less than perfect RULE adherence - you are silly not to pay attention to it.

There are many hidden gems in both iOS and Mac OS X that cover a wide range of tasks or functions. Many of these gems are outlined in various Apple documents online or maybe you can stumble across one in a Mac oriented forum or site (maybe that is how you found your way to AlliOSNews!). But in some cases these features are not outlined in documents and are difficult to find. One of these is the wide range of ways that you can screen captures in Mac OS X.
As many know, built into Mac OS X Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion is the application Grab (located in Utilities). To be sure the Grab application works well but it is not instant nor can you do some of the discrete things that I will be showing you today. Nor is Grab as fast. Every tip I will be showing you in this How To is just a set of keystrokes away and give you quick, crisp PNG or PDF screens captures from your Mac.
As I outline each of the ways to do screen captures on your Mac, you will know if your action has been successful as you will hear a camera shutter sound when the capture is made. If you are familiar with how to capture an image on your iPhone or iPad (Press and hold the Power button then press the Home button), the sound you hear will be identical to that of your iOS devices.
Capture Your Entire Desktop
Likely the most common type of screen capture made on a Mac is one of the entire desktop. To do this, press the Command+Shift+3 keys. This will capture a PNG file of your entire desktop and will save that image to your desktop. The file name is "Screenshot YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS TT.PNG" so if you are taking multiple screenshots during a session you can quickly identify them by the timestamp.
Copy Your Entire Desktop
There are times that you need to copy your desktop so you can easily import that into another file or document. To do this, press the Command+Control+Shift+3 keys. This will place a copy of the image into your clipboard which you can then paste into another application. This is great if you need to capture your desktop for a presentation or for training someone.
Capture a Portion of Your Desktop
Sometimes you only need to capture a part of your desktop like the Safari toolbar or an icon. To do this, press the Command+Shift+4 keys. This will bring up crosshair cursor which you can then click-and-drag to outline the area you want captured. As soon as you release the trackpad the image is captured and placed on your desktop. The naming convention of the file is the same as when you capture your entire desktop and the image is placed on your desktop. If you are using Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier the file will be saved as a PDF. If you add the Control key to your keystroke sequence (it doesn't matter which key you push first so long as the 4 is last), you can save the portion to your clipboard so you can drop it into another application.
Capture a Specific Application Window
Now this one is super useful, particularly for those of you who have not upgraded to Lion. If you have multiple applications open on your desktop, you can capture a specific one of them by pressing the Command+Shift+4+Spacebar keys. When you do this, your cursor will change to a camera icon which you can drag around your desktop. When you hover over an application, it will be shaded so you know which one you will be capturing. When you are over the application you want to capture, tap your trackpad and an image of that application is captured. This will be saved on your desktop as a PNG file. If you are using Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier the file will be saved as a PDF. Like capturing a portion of your desktop, if you add the Control key to your keystroke sequence, you can save the application window to your clipboard to import into another application.
These four quick but powerful ways of capturing your desktop and applications are super handy and can be done without having to start a capture application such as Grab. Best of all they are free!

text: Just a thought - I've always wanted to make sure my equipment was better than my skills. Don't want the machine to be holding me back, you know! If buying a new component will make you happy, by all means go for it. But Gummee has a point: if a component is not broken, there is no need to replace it. I haven't noticed anyone going faster with more gears or a different style of shifter or crank. Once you reach a certain level of quality (well above wally-grade) you're as good as gear can make you. The racer boyos have the bleeding edge because they are paid to. If a few grams will make you faster, just make sure to take a good dump before your ride. And go ride your bike.
