Exclusive: Documents Reveal Syria to Face Expulsion Bid From UNESCO Human Rights Committee
Historic U.S.-led initiative backed by UK, France, Germany,
Italy, Spain, Canada, Japan, S. Korea & some Arab countries
GENEVA, Jan. 25 – For the first time in its history, the UN's culture and education agency is preparing to condemn Syria and expel it from a human rights committee, revealed a Geneva-based human rights organization today, releasing a motion filed by the U.S., Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Qatar, Kuwait and six other countries, now backed also by Japan and South Korea. Click here for motion and related memo; see text below.
After UNESCO in November elected Syria, which already sits on its 58-member executive board, to a committee that judges human rights complaints, the independent UN Watch monitoring group launched a campaign of 55 parliamentarians, religious groups and human rights activists urging member states to reverse the decision.
In response, according to diplomatic documents obtained exclusively by UN Watch, the U.S., its EU allies, Canada, Japan and a handful of Arab states are now among a growing coalition of countries that is formally requesting an agenda item for next month's UNESCO board meeting to "review" Syria's controversial membership.
The initial request to UNESCO, which diplomatic insiders say was initiated by the U.S. delegation in Paris, was signed last month by 14 member states, while several others, including Japan and South Korea, have since added their support.
"What is shocking is how UNESCO ever decided in the first place to legitimize the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad—which is shooting its own people in cold blood—by elevating it to a committee that judges human rights issues on a global scale," said UN Watch executive director Hillel Neuer.
"Our coalition is thankful to Ambassador David T. Killion, the U.S. representative to UNESCO, for his delegation's leadership in seeking now to reverse this incomprehensible election."
"I am not aware that UNESCO has ever before expelled a member state from one of its committees, or passed a resolution condemning Syria, so both actions would be unprecedented, and we hope—for the sake of the Syrian victims—that there will be sufficient support among the 58 UNESCO board members to shame, pressure and weaken this murderous regime," said Neuer.
The letter by the 14 ambassadors, after invoking calls by a UN inquiry and Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, says that "UNESCO must respond to these appeals for concerted action to address the egregious human rights situation in Syria."
The letter notes that Syria's membership on UNESCO's Committee on Conventions and Recommendations allows it to participate "in the examination of cases involving alleged human rights violations."
"In view of the current situation in Syria, the Executive Board must review the participation of Syria in this aspect of its work."
"In addition," the letter states, "in view of documented concerns about the effect of the situation in Syria on its people, including, in particular, children and journalists, the Board should review this situation having reference to other areas of UNESCO's competence, namely, education, cultural preservation and press freedom."
Timeline of UN Watch Campaign to Expel Syria from UNESCO
Nov. 11 - UNESCO's 58-member executive board, including major democracies, unanimously elects Syria to human rights committee.
Nov. 23 - UN Watch launches campaign urging democracies to reverse Syria's election after story is first reported in the U.S. by FoxNews.com. UN Watch obtains a renunciation by UNESCO director Irina Bokova of of the Assad regime's election. UN Watch's protest is reported by CNN's Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, Fox News, and the Tribune de Genève.
Dec. 2 - In testimony before the UN Human Rights Council plenary, UN Watch formally calls on UNESCO to "cancel its recent decision to elect Syria to two separate committees that deal with human rights. Even the head of UNESCO, Irina Bokova, concedes that this is wrong. Her spokesperson told UN Watch: 'Given the developments in Syria, the director-general does not see how this country can contribute to the work of the committees.'" UN Watch submits the UNHRC condemnation of Syria to UNESCO, requesting Syria be expelled forthwith.
Dec. 15 - UN Watch launches campaign of of 55 parliamentarians, human rights groups and religious groups calling on UNESCO to reverse the election of Syria, and sends appeal to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe and UK Foreign Minister William Hague.
Jan. 6 - UN Watch receives notice from the British Foreign Office that it will seek to cancel Syria's "abhorrent" membership. In an email to UN Watch, the UK said it "deplores the continuing membership of Syria on this committee and does not believe that Syria's presence is conducive to the work of the body or UNESCO's reputation. We have therefore joined with other countries in putting forward an item for the first meeting of the Executive Board at which we will seek to explicitly address Syria's membership of the body." The UK also expressed hope that other members of the executive board will join London in ending what it called "this abhorrent [and] anomalous situation." Al Arabiya, Fox News and the Jerusalem Post report the story.
Jan. 25 - UN Watch obtains an exclusive copy of the motion, memo and member states seeking to condemn and expel Syria.

Ms. Alissandra Cummins
Chairman of the Executive Board
7 Place de Fontenoy
75353 Paris 07 SP
Dear Madame Chairman,
The world has been witnessing, and the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Syrian Arab Republic has verified (AlHRC/S-17 /2/Add. 1), the Government of Syria's repressive actions in violation of the human rights of the Syrian people. The situation in Syria challenges UNESCO's basic Constitutional objectives, in particular, "--- to further respect for justice, for the law and for human rights and fundamental freedoms ---" (Art. 1.1)
UNESCO must not fail to respond to the call for action by the UN Human Rights Council (AlHRC/Res/S.18/1). As the Director General said in marking Human Rights Day this year, "--- the observance of human rights is not negotiable."
We are writing, pursuant to Rule 5 of the Rules of Procedure of the Executive Board to request the inscription of an item entitled, "Response of UNESCO to the Situation in Syria".
An "Explanatory Note" which provides additional information will follow.

Response of UNESCO to the situation in Syria
1. The United Nations Human Rights Council at its 17th Special Session on 23 August 2011 decided to establish an Independent International Commission of Inquiry to investigate all alleged violations of human rights in Syria since mid-March 2011. The evidence gathered by the Commission led it to express grave
concern that crimes against humanity have been committed by Syrian military and security forces. The Report documents widespread, systematic and gross violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms, including atrocities which have resulted in the deaths of over 300 children.
2. The Commission called upon the Government of Syria to put an end to the ongoing human rights violations and recommended, inter alia, that the Government allow immediate and full access
for the Commission, outside observers and other human rights monitoring bodies. It also called for full access for media without harassment or intimidation (A/HRC/S-17/2/Add.1)
3. The United Nations Secretary-General has urged the international community to act to protect the Syrian people and the Human Rights Council has echoed this call. The Council transmitted the Commission Report to all relevant United Nations bodies and recommended that the main bodies of the UN consider
the Report and take appropriate action (A/HRC/Res/S.1S/1).
4. UNESCO must respond to these appeals for concerted action to address the egregious human rights situation in Syria. Syria, a member of the Executive Board, is also a member of the Board's
Committee on Conventions and Recommendations. In that capacity, Syria participates in the examination of cases involving alleged human rights violations under the "104 Procedure". In view of the current situation in Syria, the Executive Board must review the participation of Syria in this aspect of its work.
5. In addition, in view of documented concerns about the effect of the situation in Syria on its people, including, in particular, children and journalists, t-he Board should review this situation having reference to other areas of UNESCO's competence, namely, education, cultural preservation and press freedom.
6. In order to conduct a review and take appropriate action, (names of co~sponsors) request the inscription of a new item on the agenda of the 189th session of the Executive Board entitled, "Response of UNESCO to the Situation in Syria".

text: John Thompson 5pts Lincoln needs to go on to build a rear wheel sports version of the MKZ and the MKS. I think that Lincoln must not give up on the livery industry by taking the MKT and put the navigator grill and chop the roof by 6-8 inches and make a trunk make two versions one for the public and one for limo industry. You accomplish that by keeping the three tows of seating for limos and two row seating for general public. We also need a coupe sport something fast like using the old thunder bird from and call it the Zphry or falcon either way they can' t go wrong thinking outside the box. Last they must not forget their heritage they need to make a special edition Lincoln big four door express why they got their and what made them. They need to make a four door rear wheel drive ..... The Continental LS MKVII. Big roomy suicide doors and full size spare that stands up in the back with the half wheel shape. This way people may come to realize know my name. That is what Lincoln is all about. I hope that ford does read what theirbuyers are saying and are asking. They have yet tto give cab drivers hope yet. I am a ford fan and believe in the philosophy behind Henry Ford let's hope that mually does to.

Romeo and Juliet
by: William Shakespeare
Directed by: Brenda Wentworth
Scenic and Lighting Design: David R. Borron
Costume Design: Jeffrey Bleam
November 14 - 19
Performing Arts Center – Center Stage
Shakespeare's romantic tragedy remains one of the most popular love stories of all time. The classic tale of the passionate clash between two families is mirrored in the passionate love of the two young people who cannot find a peaceful solution to their families' passions. All plans go awry for both the Montagues and the Capulets and peace is bought at a terrible price. This touching story still hits us all with the sad waste of the lives of two youths with so much promise.

Fish and Game spokesman Andrew Hughan confirmed to The Times that the meatball-loving bear with a Twitter handle named "Glen Bearian" was released about 1 p.m. Tuesday deep in his natural habitat.
"He just wandered out, looked around, and took stock of his surroundings," Hughan said. "He's got a heck of a hangover, mostly. The game warden said he's unhappy. We don't know what kind of headache he's got."

If you aren't current on 'Breaking Bad', you might want to wait until you are before reading this. Also, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? THIS SHOW IS AMAZING.
As season 4 of Breaking Bad races to a close, we are left with a feeling that there will be a fair amount of blood shed not only in Sunday's season finale, but in the subsequent 16 episodes, which are to be split over two truncated seasons.
With the expectation of death and mayhem right around the corner, it's hard to know who to throw your weight behind in this free-for-all. In a show this gray, there are no audience favorites, as allegiances change as quickly as the characters themselves do. So, rather than track the evolution of these characters to see where and how they end up (if they make it through the next episode), let's take a look at where they all stand right now to figure out who we want to live and who we want to die. Let's get going. We don't have much time before Sunday's finale
Saul's been a very nice spice used throughout the show, a very unexpected voice of reason and advice to both Jesse and Walt. Remarkably in his line of work, he hasn't screwed any of them over and has stayed true to his word when no one else has. Despite having teetered on the verge of becoming drug kingpins, Walt and Jesse still rely heavily on Saul for his criminal connections.
Beyond Saul's practical applications, he's hilarious. A sleazy lawyer who flirts with the stereotype without becoming a caricature. Does Saul deserve to die? Maybe. But I hope he doesn't.
Unequivocally, the one guy that does not deserve to die is Hank. Sure, he started off the season as a miserable, self-pitying bastard, but it fortunately proved to be a brief phase as he found renewed purpose and satisfaction from his calling, even if it meant going rogue for the second half of the season.
He's been both friend and family to many on the show, even suffering through Walt's…well, just suffering through Walt. He's a dork, but he's proven to be killer detective with more than a little courage and determination. Sure, it might prove to be his downfall, but he's the one principal on this show that doesn't deserve to die for one reason or another.
Jesse seems to be the only character that is learning from his mistakes on this show. Granted, he's had a lot of help from virtually every character in doing so, but while everyone else seems boxed in by the decisions they've made, Jesse seems to (at least for now) control his own destiny. His arc has taken him from an ineloquent child to a still-ineloquent professional criminal with a moral code superior to anyone else's on Breaking Bad.
Let's get beyond the fact that Mike is pretty much the only likable guy on the show. Even if it wasn't for that fact, Mike does most of the heavy lifting, so we keep following Mike for the action and the inherent comic relief that follows. That's not to say that criminal activity would stop if Mike was rubbed out, but the little asides with Mike's errands always to me feel like their own little vignettes. Like "The Adventures of Mike and the Asian Couple Held Hostage" or "Mike Vs. The Two Men Hijacking the Truck."
Additionally, Mike is a free agent, so there's no way on knowing what his allegiances are, beyond the almighty dollar. As long as Mike's in play, you never know if he'll be representing Saul, Jesse, Gus, Walt, or maybe even his own interests, though we have little to know idea what those could be. As the power shifts, a big piece of the puzzle is "Who gets Mike?" so I'm in no hurry to see him go away.
And, as I said, he's pretty much the only likable guy on the show.
Gus' presence on the show is indicative of the masterful restraint that allow Breaking Bad to pull us back and forth like so many willful marionettes. I don't want Gus to die due to this fact, but I feel like Gus must for the show to make its next evolution. He's put himself in a situation which, barring some sort of crazy-unforeseen diplomatic action, will result in either his death or the deaths of Walt or Hank. Since I like Hank, and am hoping that lung cancer eventually does in our protagonist, that leaves Gus on the chopping block. He's had a hell of a run, but it's pretty clear that he's painted himself into a corner.
Now, I don't out-and-out hate Tyrus. I like his silent presence in so many scenes, in fact. But I want blood, dammit. Lots of blood. And since there are a few people who I badly want to see through this mess, that leaves a few on the bubble. Tyrus is a bubble boy. I've spent the past five minutes debating whether or not it's illogical to want Tyrus dead because he seems to lack compassion. Does Gus lack compassion? Do Walt or Mike? I think they do. But so far, Tyrus has been little more than a robot without Mike's charm or even his gruff demeanor.
If I don't care if he lives or dies, that means I want him to die.
Does she deserve to die? I can safely say that, yes, she is so annoying that she deserves to die. While she has proven herself more helpful during Hank's incapacitation, I can't just let go of the stink she made over the whole "Walt smoking weed" theory in season one. It was downright painful. Further, she's a thief. Granted she only steals stupid things like tiaras and vacation photos from open houses, but that's somehow worse in my book. Because it's just so damn annoying.
She's in harm's way just being close to Hank, so I'm prepared to see her taken as leverage. Then shot twice in the head.
That's right. I want Walt's baby girl to die. Not for the shock value of it all (though it would probably be the most shocking moment of television ever), but because Breaking Bad CAN do this. Gus is a stone cold animal, and he's proven himself capable of killing children, or anyone who gets in his way, before. Holly hasn't contributed shit to the show, Gus caused Walt to miss her birth, so her untimely death would serve as a very fitting bookend to this era of Walt's life, making both he and Skyler victims of their own bad decisions.
Only then will the bad truly be "broken."
I have no idea what that means, but it makes for a nice little bow on the piece, doesn't it?
Consider posting a comment.

I finally had a little time to sit down and get my Canon VIT apart. I bought it a while ago, but it arrived with a film counter that did not reset, and eventually became stuck at 40. The camera is almost spotless except a small dent right on the right side, this is bump could have been what messed it up. I am writing this because for awhile I had searched for information or a repair manual for this camera and there was nothing. Its not as popular as the P or the 7, which manuals and guides are super easy to find. I did end up finding a small image of an exploded view of the camera, that I am attaching here. I have highlighted all the points that need to be removed, pulled out, and what needs a spanner to take out to make the original easier to understand.
There are a few tricky parts to the disassembly, first the cold shoe, on these cameras the automatic parallax pin that pushes finders upward, is actually a screw that needs to be removed with a tiny spanner. It took me a good 5 minutes staring at it, and prying from the bottom, edges and sides to really take a close look at the pin. The spanner holes are tiny, I used a sharpened pair of tweezers. Second, the front range finder patch window is comprised of 3 parts, the outer most part unscrews, you can use a piece of rubber for friction. Within seems like another screw that you have to use a spanner on, it will just rotate and rotate if you try to unscrew it, ask me how I know haha. You need to pry that piece out, there are no threads on it. Under it is an O shaped ring that requires a spanner to remove. Third, the flash sync port, once you unscrew it with a spanner and remove pc port, underneath you will find the shoe that the accessory flash locks onto, it simply pulls straight out.
The other parts that need to be removed are pretty straight forward if you have worked on other cameras before. These include shutter speed dial, the locking collar around the shutter release, the top winding knob, and the back right winding knob release button. Make sure you note what your shutter speed and locking point are before you take them off. They are each held by 3 tiny set screws. Interestingly enough, you do not have to remove the film rewind knob, the top cover will slip out with it on.
As for the stuck film counter, there is a retaining ring you need to remove with a spanner, and a small brass O ring/shim under it. This is located under where the top winding knob would be, and it uses the shaft to align it all together. The counter has teeth and a spring under it, which is supposed to ratchet after every shot, and reset back when the camera back is open. You need to have the film door open to adjust it, just lift if off, clean the area, and realign it to S, reattach the retaining ring and wind on to test. My spring has worn out as well, maybe it was stuck in that tensioned 40th frame position too long, it will not have tension in it until it reaches the 6th frame, but resets easily after that point.
Assembly is the reverse pretty much. I also cleaned out the range finder prisms and mirrors of dust with a blower, but they were already quite clean.
Attached are some images of the disassembly.

Genetic variation near interleukin 28B and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatitis C
Asahina Y, Tsuchiya K, Nishimura T, Muraoka M, Suzuki Y, Tamaki N, Yasui Y, Hosokawa T, Ueda K, Nakanishi H, Itakura J, Takahashi Y, Kurosaki M, Enomoto N, Nakagawa M, Kakinuma S, Watanabe M, Izumi N. J Gastroenterol. 2013 Jul 17. [Epub ahead of print]
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Musashino Red Cross Hospital, 1-26-1 Kyonan-cho, Musashino-shi, Tokyo, 180-8610, Japan, firstname.lastname@example.com.
BACKGROUND: We aimed to clarify the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located near interleukin 28B and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
METHODS: A cohort comprising 792 patients treated with interferon for chronic hepatitis C was investigated. SNPs at rs8099917 and rs12979860 were determined. Cumulative incidence and HCC risk were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard analyses for a mean follow-up period of 4.9 years. Fibrosis progression rate (FPR) was determined in these patients with a known time of infection (n = 294).
RESULTS: Cumulative HCC incidence was significantly higher in rs8099917 nonTT (minor homozygote or heterozygote) patients than in rs8099917 TT (major homozygote) patients (20.8 vs. 10.5 % over 10 years, logrank test, p = 0.002). This difference was notable in patients infected with genotype 1 and those treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Among nonSVRs, interferon had a limited effect in suppressing alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or α-fetoprotein (AFP) levels in nonTT patients. The suppression of these values after interferon therapy was associated with a lower incidence of HCC. FPR were similar in TT and nonTT patients.
CONCLUSIONS: rs8099917 nonTT is related to higher HCC development in patients with HCV genotype 1 and those treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. Higher HCC incidence observed in nonTT patients partly results from the limited suppression of ALT and/or AFP by interferon in these patients.

Faith Bible Church
There is big diversity among Christians about the election this Tuesday.
Some say they are voting for President Obama while others say they are voting for Mitt Romney. Others boldly say they are voting for Ron Paul or some other third party candidate.
Some Christians are just negative.
They don't like Obama and the Democratic positions in favor of abortion on demand and same-sex marriage, and they argue about the morality of borrowing huge amounts of money to expand government programs. Some Christians are negative about Romney, mostly because he isn't just an ignorant member of a cult, but he was a leader in his local Mormon church at least 10 years. These Christians don't want to offer any validation to Mormonism as a branch of Christianity.
The final group of negative Christians say they are writing in a candidate to make a statement and hope the whole thing crashes, or they say they are not voting at all.
Does the Bible have any help about how to think about the election? Yes! Let me summarize the Bible's teaching about government, and suggest several ideas on how to apply it to our current situation.
All Christians are dual citizens.
Philippians 3:20 says that our citizenship is in heaven. That must always be our highest priority. Yet, Paul made use of his Roman citizenship several times in the book of Acts (16:36-39; 21:39; 22:25-29). Jesus says we are in the world, but not of the world. Like salt and light, Christians are to be a distinct influence on the world around us (John 17:15, 16; Matthew 5:13-16).
How do we live out our dual citizenship? First, always remember that God is sovereign, even over politicians (Proverbs 16:1; 21:1; Acts 17:26, 27; Psalm 75:6, 7). But God's purposes are complex, not simplistic. In other words, don't look at one bad thing affected by Superstorm Sandy this past week, and then assume you figured out what God was up to! It is best to say God was doing 10,000 things when he allowed Sandy to strike the northeast section of our nation.
The same will be true when he allows the election to turn out like it will. He may be judging some of us, rewarding some of us, testing some of us, bringing justice to some of us -- and many more things all at the same time.
Our job is to trust God and rest in his wise plans. If you knew all that God will be up to in the election results, you would rejoice in his wisdom, power, faithfulness, justice, goodness and love. You would not want to change a thing!
To see what the Bible says about human governments, find Romans 13:1-7, I Timothy 2:1-3, and I Peter 2:13-17. That is about it. While there is much in those sections, I can summarize your responsibilities in a few words: submit, honor, pay your taxes (even if they go up!) and pray.
God ultimately sets up the rulers and takes them down. He does it to promote the justice and welfare of sinful people all over the world. Treat, therefore, any ruler respectfully -- even in your heart attitudes, because God put them there.
What is interesting is that these same Scriptures have applied to every Christian in every time and place until now. Some preachers Americanize these instructions and assume things that might not be there. These words were originally given in the context of the Roman Empire under the evil, satanic Caesar Nero, who eventually executed both Paul and Peter.
How should our brothers and sisters in communist China apply the Bible's teaching? How about those in Russia under Putin, or in the Middle East under Islamic Sharia Law or under corrupt dictators in Africa? They must submit, honor, pay taxes and pray!
We live in a representative Republic, and God sovereignly put us here. We can vote for those who govern us. We can make a salt and light difference this Tuesday. Our Constitution begins, "We the people...," not with some dictator enforcing his or her will upon us.
The founders of our country were aware of the corruption of man and created a separation of powers within our government -- with checks, balances, and accountability. But our system of government will only function properly if our people are moral. They must know the difference between right and wrong.
Historians differ widely on how Christian the founders of our nation were. Some seem to think they were almost Bible characters, while others think they were all deists. Based on their church attendance and stated theological beliefs, I think they were a mixed group. We'll meet some of them in heaven, but others will not be there.
Historians, on the other hand, almost unanimously agree that the founders assumed the Bible's standards of morality were for everyone. Jefferson may have cut out the miracles from his Bible, but he extolled Jesus' moral teachings, for example.
Over the past 75 years or so, our country has tried to keep the morality of the Bible, without the foundation of God and the Bible. This has eventually crumbled into morals like "do the right thing because it is the right thing to do," things being right or wrong as long as they don't harm anyone else, or whatever works for most people.
Our goal as Christians is getting to the hearts of the people of our land, not to put Scotch tape around the crumbling shell of morality. Martin Luther King Jr., however, made some wise statements. He said, "While it may be true that morality cannot be legislated, behavior can be regulated," and that though laws can't make you love me, they can keep you from lynching me. That is right.
Plus, establishing right standards is actually a blessing to those around us in society. It is a form of loving our neighbor, by meeting needs they don't even know that they have.
Here's the bottom line.
Don't make an idol out of politics, assuming it can do what only God can do. Don't get too high or low whatever happens Tuesday. God will be on the job Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. His master plan won't be affected positively or negatively.
Do pray. It is commanded of Christians to do.
Do vote. God uses your prayers and votes within his big plan.
Do be a loving dual citizen.
Do keep smiling, knowing that King Jesus is coming back to fix it all. All wrongs will be righted. All rights will be vindicated.
If you are not a Christian, why not? Even if all of your people get elected for the next 50 years in a row, what will that matter 50,000 years from now?
Don't win the election and lose you soul. Jesus is the forever king who rose from the dead. Repent and trust in Hhim today.
Eternity is forever -- there is another presidential election scheduled four years from now!

Roadrunner & Artist News
Wednesday's Thursday
Posted on February 12, 2008The Murderdolls are currently touring the UK... arriving just a couple of days ago. Metal-Sludge.com are publishing Wednesday 13's tour diary through the dates, and here's his first entry.
The flight- So we flew from Chicago to the UK, which was a 8 hr flight. It was a usual flight for us surrounded by screaming babies, retards and guys that look like potential terrorists. We flew coach, which was tight and cramped especially our drummer the Ghoul who is fucking 8 feet tall, you'd think the big wigs in label-land would fly us first class. It was a long restless flight but we finally arrive in London at 10:30 in the morning.
The tour bus- Holy shit...I'm not lying we have a pink fucking bus. It looks like a Malibu Barb tour bus...people who called us fags before will definitely do it now. This looks like the Tigertailz custom bus.
The show- We played in Wolverhampton England and were greeted on arrival by a shitload of our fans at 2 in the afternoon. Now the fact that we have a pink bus is hard enough but some kids found it cool to write all over our bus with a fucking sharpie. Now we have a pink bus with fucking graffiti. Well, minus the bus incident the show was fucking great 800 kids singing every single word to our dumb 3 chord songs. I always scout the audience hoping I'd see someone from Wrathchild UK, Tigertailz, or Zodiac Mindwarp. I actually heard that Roky Shades from Wrathchild UK was at our first London show...and just think he could have signed my copy of Stakk Attak...oh well maybe one day... until then I'll just be happy w/ my Tuff autograph poster.
Aftershow- Typical aftershow shit, we get cleaned up, eat, drink, break shit, and talk to the fans. I passed out around 3:00 am...
Until next time I'm outta here like Contrabands career...
Ps: why didn't you ask the SR71 guy about their drummer being in Childs Play?
I'm not part of the rat race.
If you wanna see what you're missing, make sure you check out the Murderdolls VIDEO page for 2 exclusive live video clips of the Murderdolls on their previous dates here with Papa Roach.

|Robert Franklin GIlley
|Written by Noah Lockamy
|Tuesday, 16 July 2013 16:13
Robert Franklin Gilley, 78, of Blowing Rock, passed away at home on July 5, 2013, after a brief battle with cancer. Known as a determined southern gentleman at 6' 4", he achieved national recognition as a top producer in the insurance industry as a Certified Life Underwriter.
He is survived by wife, Sarah J. Gilley, and son Sean Gilley of Winston-Salem, sister Sheila and her husband Gerry Brown of Hickory, sister Donna Maye of Hickory, sister Vicki and her husband Eddie Williams of Hickory, brother Graham and his wife Ann Gilley of Lenoir, and grandson Joseph Schrader of Charlotte, along with step son Noah and his wife Kellie Burgess with granddaughters Kayla and Sophie of Greensboro, in addition to numerous nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his first wife Betty Jo Perkins Gilley, daughter Erin Schrader of Charlotte, his mother Alice Nichols Gilley and father Robert Gilley of Boone.
He earned a B.S. and Masters in Music at Appalachian State University. Bob entered the life insurance business in 1962 and was a member of the Million Dollar Round Table and a Chartered Life Underwriter since 1966. He was among top producers nationally. He was a former faculty member of the Purdue University Life Insurance Marketing Institute. He was also former president of Habitat for Humanity in Charlotte.
Philanthropic services included serving on the Advisory Board of the Hayes School of Music of Appalachian State University and lead donor of the Robert F. Gilley Recording Studio. He offered a generous land grant for founding of the ASU Gilley Field Station located near the New River. He also served as advisor on the National Committee for the New River.
Recently, he donated a Steinway Concert Grand Piano to Myers Park Baptist Church in Charlotte where he was a deacon and member of the congregation for more than 20 years.
Bob sang professionally beginning as a cast member of Horn in the West outdoor drama in Boone during college days. He also hosted a local radio program in Boone for WATA. Later in life, he sang as an oratorio soloist with the Charlotte Symphony and was a featured vocalist at Myers Park Baptist Church.
During the past year, he began duplicate bridge and earned his Junior Master status. He will be greatly missed by friends and family.
Memorial services for Robert F. "Bob" Gilley will be conducted Saturday morning, July 13, 2013, at 11:00 o'clock, at First Baptist Church of Boone. Officiating will be Dr. Phillip Reynolds.
The family will receive friends following the memorial service.
Memorials may be made to ASU Hayes School of Music or The Gilley Recording Studio at ASU, 813 Rivers Street, Boone, North Carolina, 28607.
On-line condolences may be sent to the Gilley Family at hamptonfuneralnc.com
Hampton Funeral and Cremation Service is in charge of arrangements.

by Alan Dixon | 2005-08-12 03:00:00-06
Note: while this article discusses water loss calculations, Hydra-Alert is considering adding calorie loss calculations to the watch in the future. More about this possible feature at the very end of this article.
The Hydra-Alert™ (HA) is a sport watch that adds a new feature to training aids, it estimates your fluid loss and tells you when and how much to drink. The Hydra-Alert™ sports watch monitors air temperature, ambient humidity, and your heart rate to estimate fluid loss during physical activity. No, it doesn't directly monitor water loss, it estimates it. The HA does this by plugging monitored values (air temp and humidity) and exertion level (heart rate vs. resting heart rate) into internal formulas for fluid loss. There is a one-time programming of the unit for the user's weight, sex, age, resting heart rate and maximum MET (VO2 MAX) The unit will run a simple self administered test to calculate resting heart rate and maximum MET if you don't know them.
The HA has been in development with the Military to keep soldiers hydrated in difficult environmental conditions, like the Iraq war. For instance it helps soldiers on guard duty (they wear hydration bladders) to hydrate at proper levels.
One big advantage I can see to the HA is to conserve water. With an accurate estimation of you water loss, you drink only what you need. This allows you to carry only the water you need and minimizes drinking stops to those that are needed. No more conservatively guessing at water you need, carrying and drinking large amounts, and peeing it out in short order. I can also see applications for the HA in ultra-endeavors. I wished I had the HA for long hot dry days canyoneering in Southern Utah.
The Hydra-Alert™ can tell you, at user determined intervals, how much water you need to drink (fluid lost during the interval). For example, you could set the unit to beep every 20 minutes with the amount of water you need to drink. If you can't drink then (like you're in the middle of a climbing pitch) the unit will keep track of you water loss and give you an updated amount 20 minutes later that includes the water you didn't drink. The HA keeps track of the total amount of water lost during the entire exercise period. This is very useful information for predicting water consumption for future trips or training sessions.
Obviously the HA designers had the medial risks from dehydration in mind, not conserving water! Maintaining proper hydration is essential for healthy cardiovascular and metabolic function. Possible consequences from dehydration include:
The Hydra-Alert™ also calculates a four zone Heat Index based on temperature and humidity: Caution, Extreme Caution, Danger, and Extreme Danger. These give the user an indication of risk of dehydration before they start to exercise. Oh, and the Hydra-Alert is accurate even when you're not exercising.
Features Included in Hydra-Alert watches:
Now about calorie loss: How cool would it be if you not only knew water loss but also how many calories you were burning? Using the same information of monitored heart rate the HA could (in a future version) figure out how many calories you burn. So at the reminder intervals it would not only tell you how much water to drink but also how many calories to eat. Not only that, the unit, knowing your exertion level, would figure out the amount of fat and carbohydrate your body burns. It could even tell you when you start to enter critical glycogen depletion and start metabolizing body muscle into energy (not good).
If you took some good training hikes with the HA monitoring calorie consumption you'd get a good idea of how much energy you expend hiking or running. With this information you could better calculate the food you need on a trip – that is, you could figure out the minimum amount of food for a trip saving a lot of weight. Also, with the HA you could hike in your most efficient "fat burning" zone.
Again, I stress that the calorie monitoring function is not in any current Hydra-Alert units and not even announced for future units. It is simply based on discussions with HA's physiologist about possible future enhancements using their technology.

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — Vermont lawmakers are dealing with a sticky issue — a bill that would change the grading system for maple syrup.
The Senate has passed a bill that would, for example, change Grade A Fancy syrup to "Golden Delicate." Grade A Medium Amber would be called "Amber Rich."
WCAX-TV reports proponents say the changes would unify the classification system across the United States and Canada.
The House would need to approve the bill. Similar bills are pending in Maine, New Hampshire and New York.
NEWPORT CITY – Rotary International's well known motto is "Service Above Self." In an effort to expand that tradition, members of the Newport Rotary Club are helping to start an Interact Club at North Country Union High School.
Interact is a service club for 14 to 18 year olds. There are 11,000 such clubs worldwide. They get guidance and support from individual Rotary Clubs. North Country Teachers Helen Poulin and Meg Norman will oversee the club.
NEWPORT CITY - The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the plans for the bio-technology facility slated for Newport City. The facility is planned for the former Bogner building location. The building was purchased for the project more than a year ago.
Bill Stenger, the co-owner and president of Jay Peak Resort, is working with AnC Bio of Seoul, South Korea, to create a similar facility at the location. AnC Bio Vermont would conduct stem cell research and make artificial organs, among other work. The company is expected to create 200 jobs at all levels.

If you look up the word "smile" in the dictionary it says "to be pleasant or agreeable." But I have a bone to pick with Webster's — a smile is so much more than that! It's the sheer delight in a child's face as he rips open a gift. It's the facial expression from your mom that translates to "Omg I love it!" It's even the barely-there grin of your special someone who doesn't know whether to laugh or cry upon seeing a sentimental present.
This week, Gilt is celebrating the gift of the grin. A flash of those pearly whites is a treat for the eyes and the soul, so here is the easiest way to get those darling dimples to show up: Give family and friends gifts they'll love. Just a few ideas to get you started: Kids will go crazy for retro pedal cars and Radio Flyer's wagons and trikes — they'll let little speedsters cruise around in style.
Ladies will love kate spade new york's colorful clothes, purses, and jewelry, and there's Jack Spade goodies for the guys in your life too. For the hostess with the mostess, a deliciously scented Seda France candle will perk up her senses and a Sodastream machine will bring out her bubbly side. But the best part about seeing a smile is that it will make you smile too, and Gilt's glamorous gifts make it easy to spread the joy.

Organizers for the "Kokua For The Philippines" benefit had hoped for sunny skies, but it was not to be.
The live TV broadcast was canceled, but entertainers and donors found a way for the show to go on.
The storm caused a safety hazard, so event workers had to pack up.
"We said we were going to brave the storm. We checked the front desk they said rain or shine that the concert was going on, so we got dressed and came on down," said Lauryl Joyce, a visitor from Michigan.
But the rain shut the public show outside. The concert portion of the Kokua for the Philippines fundraiser was called off. Some performers said the force of the rain was a reminder of the struggles those in the Philippines faced.
"This is all about reminding people of the onward going situation in the Philippines and in a way someone spoke upstairs and reminded us," said Mike Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac.
"Mick came all the way from Maui and a lot of entertainers came all the way from Maui. A lot of workers were here and everybody was here to support," said musician Henry Kapono.
The show and support for the Philippines continued. More than thirty entertainers, local singers and artists shifted their efforts indoors. The phone bank and an impromptu performance was streamed live on the web.
Artist Robert Wyland painted, local musicians performed and some "Hawaii Five-0" cast members picked up calls continuing the fundraising.
"Philippines has really been suffering. Some people thought the worse is over but no now is when the real work needs to happen," said Mayor Kirk Caldwell.
The event has raised more than $1.7 million in pledges and donations.

A very helpful youngin' over at Hammock Forums by the handle "the scouter" compiled a spreadsheet[1] that compares the prices of various DIY/MYOG fabric suppliers. I found a few minor errors, but overall it's very useful. Scott (I think he posts here too) at DIYGearSupply[2] née BackWoods DayDreamer is really holding it down in offering great prices. It may not be the case, but it looks as if Scott's decision to only offer one to a few colors of each fabric really drives his prices down compared to the other shops that offer a wider variety.[1] https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq6B5SHKA8kUdEZMbnJ4bUYycDBFZldIYzQ4YzRlYUE&hl=en_US#gid=0[2] http://www.diygearsupply.com/cgi-bin/isle.cgi?type=all
Nice spreadsheetI bought some 1.1 oz nylon from diygear.com, great prices, prompt delivery
It's not correct to draw a correlation between color, and Scott's prices. However, you are correct in saying that he's holding it down.It's more correct to say that color availability is a by-product of the pricing. Mostly Scott is very adept at sourcing overruns and cosmetic seconds of fabrics that are very desirable to the MYOG crowd. Although, that nature of these fabrics is what creates such a large disparity between the prices of these materials, and the lightest, newest, cutting edge fabrics.Don't think you're being gouged for a half oz difference in sq yd weight by comparing Scott's 1.1oz(unfinished or uncoated) fabrics, to the lightest available ~1/2oz fabrics, because the companies offering these fabrics are shouldering much higher financial burdens "bringing them to market" in the first place.5,000 yard minimums are nothing to sneeze at, especially when you consider that sub 1oz fabrics can cost 3-4+ times as much per yard to get produced.That being said, I'm pretty much Scott's biggest fan. Any MYOGer without a lot of confidence in their skills, would be foolish not to proto with the calendered 1.1oz olive ripstop or heavier offerings from DIY-GearSupply (backwoods daydreamer).
Not on the list, but Bearpaw sells DIY fabric, hardware, and soft goods at competitive prices.http://www.bearpawwd.com/fabrics_misc/fabrics_misc.htmlShipping was fast and reasonably priced. I haven't dealt with many of the other companies, but I definitely recommend them.
Javan,Of course you are right. That was foolish of me to assume without knowing more (much of anything, really) about how these places source their fabrics. Thanks for setting me straight.Pilate

The 30-year-old guard has received more playing time since the season-ending injury to Rajon Rondo, and he had three straight double-digit scoring performances as part of the Celtics' six-game winning streak.
His ability to step on the court and quickly score points in bunches has earned Leandro Barbosa a nickname.
"Instant Buckets" is what the Celtics guard is called by teammate Avery Bradley, a tag that is a perfect fit for the 30-year-old native of Brazil.
From the moment Barbosa enters the game off the bench, he is set in rapid motion, driving to the basket, pulling up for a 3-pointer, always trying to make something happen at the offensive end.
Now, with Rajon Rondo lost for the season because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, Barbosa is getting more playing time and more opportunities to provide a spark with the second unit.
In a three-game span against the Orlando Magic, Los Angeles Clippers and Toronto Raptors, Barbosa averaged 13.3 points on 16-for-29 shooting.
The Celtics lack players who can drive to the basket, but that is one area where Barbosa excels, which helps him provide those bursts of scoring.
"That's the way I like the play," said Barbosa, whose team takes a six-game winning streak into Sunday night's game against the Denver Nuggets at the TD Garden. "I grew up playing like that. I learned how to play like that.
"I have (not being stopped) set in my mind. You have to. It is one of the big keys in my game. Every time I see the chance to go to the basket, I go."
Barbosa, now in his 10th season after playing with the Phoenix Suns, the Raptors and the Indiana Pacers, signed with the Celtics in October, knowing they already had a crowded backcourt.
Rondo, Bradley (once he returned from double shoulder surgery), Courtney Lee and Jason Terry were all going to get minutes ahead of Barbosa.
He is averaging career lows of 13 minutes and 5.3 points, but now that Rondo is sidelined, those numbers figure to rise. In the six games that Rondo has been out, Barbosa is averaging 24 minutes.
"Anything can happen," Barbosa said. "At this time of year, I have a chance and I'm very happy Coach (Doc Rivers) has been given me a lot of confidence so I can play some minutes. I've been trying to do my best."
Barbosa is taking advantage, hitting for double figures in the three straight games after doing so just four times prior to that.
After being a regular in rotations everywhere he has played, Barbosa had to adjust to not playing before Rondo was hurt.
"You've got to be positive, have your mind set that anytime you can have the chance to play," Barbosa said. "That's the first time (being out of a rotation), but there's always a first time in life. Right now is my chance, so I'm ready to go.
Page 2 of 2 - "I knew it was going to be like that when I got here. (Bradley) came back and I knew it was going to be like that. Now that Rondo is down, I'm going to try to do my best to make everybody happy."
Rivers has increased the responsibilities for Barbosa, pairing him with Jason Terry as the second unit guards and asking for up-tempo offense from the pair. Rivers has liked what he's seen, even if Barbosa can get a bit out of control when he has the ball at times.
"He's been great," Rivers said. "He's the guy all year, should you go with him, shouldn't you go with him? Obviously, you should have. You could make that case.
"He's just playing so well. He's wild at times. I think he scares me and the opposing coach all at the same time. That's actually not bad to have. He's tough."

Hey there! I've featured your gorgeous photograph in my most recent journal, titled "Nature Feature." I hope you enjoy looking through the photographs I've chosen. And I hope you don't mind that I have featured this photograph.
Thanks and have a good day!
You can find the journal here:
Thanks and have a good day!
You can find the journal here:
Nature FeatureI think I'm going to start doing features in my journals so that I can easily change them and link back to them for people. I don't know how often I'll be doing them, but I'm thinking once or twice a month. Or it might be completely random. Who knows, haha?
I can't decide whether I'd like to feature a few artists along with a few of my favourite pieces of theirs or if I'd like to just feature some pieces I love... with a general theme or not...? I just don't know. So maybe I'll give all of those ideas a try.
Alrighty, so I think I'll do it by theme today. Today's theme is...
In all of her glory, featured by photographers on DA. Enjoy!
This is unreal, love this a lot.
Been to Zion... one of the most striking things about it is the brilliant green of the plant life set against the coral/red rocks.... just breathtaking. I love this shot.
This is BEAUTIFUL!! I love the angle of the photo too. <3 it!
so very surreal!
i like it!
Omg you're such a great photographer.... this one's awesome tooo
great shot! can we get a high resolution???
Unbelievably beautiful, fabulous capture!
Wow, this is amazing! The whole feel of the picture really takes you there, and you can almost hear the echo of the water yourself just looking at this, the color of the rocks and water are strikingly different, and really bring out the sense of nature in it's untamed form. Excellent photography!
great dynamic composition and fantastic colour
Phenomenal Image!, cheers
I love this image, natural architecture!?
In addition to an early feature I have done, I have also featured this piece in this news article
Amazing shot.
hmm.. why is called Zion?
this is really cool, I like it a lot.. the balance to the compo and the flow is very nice... one thing, I think if you can it would be good to try and rescue the slightly overexposed highlight on the nearest bit of the "waterfall".. but yeah incredible textures in this shot!
Very motivating to travel and take photography around the world...
Thank you for sharing your wonderful work!
