Florida defensive back Cody Riggs transferring to Notre Dame for graduate year
The defensive back started 12 games for Florida last year and will be eligible for the 2014 season.
NOTRE DAME — Notre Dame's defensive backfield just got a little deeper and a whole lot more experienced.
University of Florida defensive back Cody Riggs elected to pursue his fifth year of eligibility at Notre Dame after graduating from Florida in May. Riggs solidified his commitment Wednesday, Feb. 19.
"Cody Riggs is an outstanding player," head coach Brian Kelly said in a statement to und.com. "He played a ton of football at Florida having started at both safety and corner back. Cody definitely brings veteran leadership and versatility to our team and defense.
"He will help us immediately but, more importantly, Cody is a great kid with a tremendous focus on both football and academics. His decision to complete his collegiate playing career and pursue a graduate degree at the University of Notre Dame speaks volumes about both our program and University."
The 5-foot-9, 190-pound Riggs, who missed the majority of the 2012 season with a fractured foot, started all 12 games for Florida in 2013 and totaled 51 tackles (6.5 for loss), three pass break-ups and 1.5 sacks. He was a team captain against Miami, South Carolina and Georgia Southern.
Though the Gators finished 4-8 last season, their pass-efficiency defense and total defense ranked in the Top 10 among FBS teams.
Riggs played both cornerback and safety with the Gators, but will likely move to a full-time cornerback at Notre Dame. With a unit that loses captain Bennett Jackson and Lo Wood but returns junior KeiVarae Russell and sophomores Devin Butler and Cole Luke, Riggs will compete for a starting spot right away. He will join the program in June after receiving his degree in family, youth and community sciences from Florida.
"I am very thankful for this opportunity," Riggs said to und.com. "I fully intend to make the most of this opportunity by not only giving my absolute best effort, but also leading by example both on and off the field.
"Being on campus, meeting with the academic personnel and interacting with the Notre Dame players helped me dot the I's and cross the T's on what has been the toughest decision of my life. I am excited about working hard in the classroom and expanding my professional network in pursuit of a graduate degree from Notre Dame. I am equally excited to contribute on the field and make some big plays to help the team win games."

We have backyard bears in rural Mission, too! . Thanks for the conference update. I saw a reference somewhere about "going green". Does this mean we'll see bears at the conference... Winnie the Pooh? Paddington? Smokey the Bear? maybe even the A&W Root Beer Bear? Then again, maybe that's not such a great idea. A late night sharing of an elevator with an unsuspecting, unshaven delegate could cause panic to break out in the hotel. No, I'm not mentioning names! ;)

The only bears you will see at the conference will be the big, cuddly ones who write books. But we do have a bunch of Big Green Plans for this year -- you'll hear about them here, first!

It is amazing how much time and love parents put into designing the perfect nursery for their little one. I am really crazy about nursery designs that include a custom twist.
However, coming up with the perfect, unique way to customize the nursery can be very time consuming and often overwhelming. That's why I was so excited when I stumbled upon New Arrivals, Inc. They offer a huge variety of adorable ways to add that special touch to your little love bug's nursery.
I love this beautiful selection of unique monogrammed pillows. They are very soft and of the highest quality. Each pillow is printed with the letter of your choice and can be customized with one of three color combinations. Chose just one pillow for a sweet accent to a rocker or if you are lucky enough to have a window seat in your little one's room, then why not spell out their entire name. Such a unique finishing touch!
These adorable pink and green fabric letters are so much fun! Spell out your little love's name or create a unique monogram for a special wall accent. These funky letters would also look great propped on a shelf as part of a unique wall display.
These sweet wooden letter blocks are hand painted and make the perfect addition to a wall shelf, book shelf, or dresser. They are a great fit for spelling out your child's name, a favorite quote, or even a song title. If green isn't part of your design plan then check them out in pink, blue, or chocolate.
I am just crazy about this custom wall plaque. Choose from several shapes, ribbon choices, and fabric options for a one of a kind piece of artwork perfect for any little lady's room. Not into pink? They have super sweet options for your little man as well.
These large wooden letters are the perfect addition to any little girl's nursery or bedroom. They are lovingly hand painted in cottage white and are slightly distressed on the edges for a unique antique appeal. Choose from over 50 different ribbons for a custom design to match any decor.

When you're buying a jet, months of work culminate the moment you sign the papers. You're finished with research, analysis, due diligence and inspections. You've had the last of your consultations with brokers, attorneys, accountants, pilots and mechanics. The marathon has been run and now you can reap the rewards.

Preowned aircraft prices and financing costs remain at historically low levels, and business jet manufacturers continue to offer incentives to boost sales. That's changing the access equation for private fliers, leading some to forgo charter, jet cards or fractional shares in favor of buying an aircraft outright.
March 26, 2012
中文内容请参看下面的PDF文件 As with real estate, the options available to business jet travelers fall into two main categories: rent and own. Civil aviation regulations around the world dictate this.

An aircraft starts to deteriorate as soon as it leaves the factory. Parts wear out and corrosion sneaks into hard-to-reach corners. Expensive engine components tick off their allowed lifetime operating cycles and hours each time you fly. There's only one way to combat this entropy, preserve airworthiness and maximize safety, and that is by performing maintenance.
February 1, 2010
Managing a multimillion-dollar aircraft isn't just another chore, it's a full-scale business-a business many owners want help with. "We're overwhelmed right now," said Scott Phillips, whose company, Jet 1 Charter, provides management and charter services in Naples, Fla.
April 1, 2009
Anyone who has owned an airplane knows that finding the right place to keep it is no small task. In fact, the job is likely much more involved than first-time buyers ever imagine when they begin to consider aircraft ownership. Obtaining financing, finding insurance, hiring a crew, arranging maintenance-even redoing the interior and paint job-are likely all high on their list of things to do.
December 1, 2008
Aircraft owners often take pleasure in contemplating federal aviation taxes. That's because much federal tax planning in this area focuses on deductions and thus on taxes the aircraft owner might save. Comparable deductions are frequently available for state tax purposes, but when the spotlight shines on state tax it usually illuminates how much the owner must pay.

Registering your aircraft in the U.S. is a seemingly minor paperwork item that you may not think about during the heady hunt for a business jet. But unless the registration is properly handled, that aircraft you buy might not be legal to fly.
August 1, 2008
With jet-A fuel costs reaching record highs, business aircraft owners and their flight departments are feeling a big pinch in their budgets. The good news is that they are receiving some relief from an unlikely source-aircraft-insurance companies. The aviation-insurance industry equivalent of a heavyweight title fight is in full swing, and the big winner is the aircraft owner.

Managing construction of a hangar or leasing an existing one isn't as easy as you might think. You may face obstacles ranging from local zoning laws to FAA regulations to insurer mandates. Here's what you need to consider.

Robin Hugh Gibb was born on the Isle of Man on December 22, 1949. Robin was the fraternal twin brother of Maurice Gibb. In 1958, the Gibb family emigrated to Australia and settled in Brisbane. There, the twins, along with their older brother, Barry became known as the Bee Gees and found some success hosting a weekly television show. They released their first single in 1963, which reflected their trademark three-part harmony sound. Robin shared lead vocal duties with Barry, and the trio was heavily influenced by such English rock acts as the Beatles. The brothers collaborated in writing most of the group's original songs. Their first Australian hit came in 1966 ("Spicks and Specks"), and its success subsidized the family's return to England in 1967. Over the next two years, the Bee Gees launched a string of hit singles executed in a brooding, distinctively British pop style. From this period came such well-crafted, harmony-rich songs as "New York Mining Disaster 1941," "To Love Somebody," "Massachusetts," "Words," "I've Got to Get a Message to You" and "I Started a Joke."
Following a temporary breakup, the Bee Gees kicked off the Seventies with another round of pop hits: "Lonely Days" (Number Three, 1970) and "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart (Number One, 1971). But the group thereupon foundered commercially and creatively until 1975's Main Course, which found them taking a breezy, rhythm & blues-oriented approach. The trio exploited their upper registers on such danceable mid-decade smashes as "Jive Talkin'" (Number One, 1975) and "Nights on Broadway" (Number Seven, 1975), which established them as key architects of the emerging disco movement. As it turned out, Main Course was just an appetizer compared to the run of Number One hits that followed from 1976 to 1979. They contributed several songs to the hugely successful soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever (1977), including "You Should Be Dancing," "How Deep Is Your Love," "Stayin' Alive" and "Night Fever." During the late Seventies, the Bee Gees dominated dance floors and airwaves.
Around this time, Robin worked on a number of solo projects, including 1983's How Old Are You? The album featured "Juliet," a hit single in Europe. He also worked with other artists, producing and writing for Jimmy Ruffin. With his brothers, Gibb penned hit songs for such artists as Barbra Streisand ("Woman in Love," Guilty," "What Kind of Fool"), Diana Ross ("Chain Reaction"), Dionne Warwick ("Heartbreaker"), Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers ("Islands in the Stream"), Frankie Valli ("Grease"), Yvonne Elliman ("If I Can't Have You") and their younger brother, the late Andy Gibb ("I Just Want to Be Your Everything," "[Love Is] Thicker Than Water," "Shadow Dancing"). In 1977, they became the first and only songwriters to place five songs in the Top 10 at the same time.
Gibb teamed up with his brothers for a few more Bee Gees albums, such as E.S.P. (1987) and One (1989). In 1996-7, the Bee Gees received industry acknowledgment with American, World and British Music Awards "Lifetime Achievement" honors and were inducted into the Songwriter and Rock and Roll Halls of Fame.
After the death of his twin Maurice in 2003, Robin retired the Bee Gees name. He released the solo album Magnet that year and followed it up a few years later with a holiday recording, My Favourite Christmas Carols.
Robin underwent emergency surgery in 2010 for a blocked intestine. The following year, he was hospitalized three times. He was later diagnosed with cancer, and in February 2012 he underwent chemotherapy. But by late March, the singer had returned to the hospital for intestinal surgery. He slipped into a coma in mid-April, and died on May 20, 2012. He was 62. Robin Gibb was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Bee Gees in 1997.

Mariusz Treliński, artistic director of the Teatr Wielki, the National Opera in Warsaw, is a celebrity in Poland's cultural world. The successful film director made his debut in the opera with Puccini and for his La Monnaie debut he is conducting a work by that Italian composer: the rarely staged Manon Lescaut. His recent productions of Madama Butterfly and Turandot were extremely well received by press and public alike.
You started off as a film director and from the outset you showed great promise in the Polish film world. Then one day you directed an opera, which fascinated you so much that you bid farewell to film and theatre and became the artistic director of the Polish National Opera in Warsaw. Is opera such a drug that you instantly forgot your other artistic ambitions?
That decision is a mystery to me too! Madama Butterfly, my first opera production, was an experiment and at the time I regarded it as something of a whim in-between two films. But that production made me realize that I feel a real bond with opera: I was captivated by its sophisticated form, specific use of language and artificiality. This was the opposite of the cinema! It is true that in general those aspects do nothing to enhance the reputation of the opera, but personally they fascinate me. What is also important to me is the fact that opera has been part of the cultural world for so long. When I made a film or stage play, I felt I was telling a story, but when I stage an opera, I am dealing with a myth and stirring up ideas which are anchored deep in the collective consciousness. In other words, I enter the world of anthropology. I peek over the shoulder of the psychoanalysts to the sofas. I don't tell a story, I wrestle with myths and archetypes. A film is shown, but an opera happens. It is one of the last rituals, a meeting place where community is created. The opera houses, those grand buildings in city centres, resemble churches where a strange religion is practised. In my view that just makes the juxtaposition of the long-established traditions of the opera with contemporary ideas about art in a ravaged, fragmented but stratified world all the more exciting.
The public has a clear idea of what opera is and entails. And at the end of the day they are usually titles everybody knows. Is it important to confront the audience with your own vision? Or are you interested in the tension between what happens in your head and what happens in the collective head of the audience?
Art requires opposition, a counterpoint. In a world stripped of reference points and authorities, the opera is one of the last places where we encounter something enduring. There's no doubting the fact that most librettos are superficial on an intellectual level, but the themes touched on in the opera are much more interesting than the words in the libretto. Manon Lescaut, which I am now working on in Warsaw, can be seen as a trifling, bourgeois story about a man who tries to follow the shadow of an unattainable woman. But if you try and see it as a story about a fantasy, about the projection mechanism created by bewitchment, and about a woman who is the prototype of a femme fatale, then the whole meaning changes.
How does one discover in stories that are not challenging or inspiring intellectually, something that can fire the imagination, something that moves not only emotionally, but also makes you stop and reflect?
In every story I try to penetrate to the psychoanalytical or mythical level which underlies the origin of the story in question. I ask myself what it meant then, how it was received, what censorship problems it came up against. Abbé Prévost's novel caused a shock; of course the work must have been scandalous at the time. Working with the same story today, I try and get at its enduring energy. The period and the costumes change, but human nature remains the same. Certain structures in us are still almost identical to structures of hundreds of years ago. That is why I always try and decipher the essence of the story and see how it is reflected in contemporary reality, in our world, our media, culture and dreams.
After all these years your repertoire of opera productions has grown considerably. You have directed Verdi, Szymanowski's Król Roger – no fewer than three different productions -, there is Gluck, Mussorgsky, Wagner, Tchaikovsky, but Puccini returns time and time again.
For me he is a mysterious figure. Opera historians see him as the founder of verismo. He did of course introduce a certain sort of realism into opera, but for me he is essentially a photographer of the human soul. His verismo is like an X-ray. I believe Puccini is the only composer whose music stemmed from psychology, from dialogue: the word and energy of the human conflict set the music in motion. What is interesting is that in his operas Puccini never builds an equal relationship between a man and a woman; they are always vertical relationships. On the one hand he creates poor, silenced women, creatures like Butterfly who offer a man everything they have, who are destitute and go barefoot, who have no belongings apart from a little box with a pipe and a handkerchief, or they are women like Liu. Then there are figures like Turandot and Manon. Either the man dominates, or he has become pathologically dependent on a strong, destructive woman. In fact in photographs Puccini often wears the mask of the impeccable dandy. That is why the character is life-like: naked and real, I would almost say. It is an interesting psychological theme. Indeed, when making an opera I often talk to psychoanalysts or psychiatrists. We look at the characters in the opera as specific, clinical cases.
Have you ever stopped to consider that the leading characters in the opera are often women, but that their fate is determined by men? And you are a man too.
Yes, in this male world, the femmes fatales rule. They are our torment and nightmare, they are a threat to male domination. For five minutes it seems they hold us in their grip, but then the last act restores the balance in the world and the woman must perish so that people can sleep soundly again. That is a cynical habit and so I like to turn that male law on its head. Puccini tried to make an end to his story with Manon's death. But what is essential in this story is the fact that she embodies something extraordinary which cannot be destroyed.
You try and bring legends, myths and stories from a distant past closer to modern-day sensitivities. As an artist you behave rather brazenly: instead of standing in the shadow of the story, you take a step forward and inject your sensitivity and your emotionality into the whole thing so that you yourself become the subject of the story. Does that reflect the behaviour of a film director or does it have to do with your need to recognize yourself in those stories?
Firstly, I have an organic aversion to art that is academic in its approach. If I cannot form a relationship with the piece, if I don't have a personal bond with it, I don't think I have the right to work with it. This is not a question of egocentrism, but honesty. I look for common ground with the stories in question and I set to work on them because they clarify something in me. Whenever I stage an opera, I create an archetype, I give it a contemporary meaning for the audience and for me personally. Only when these elements are combined, does my work become meaningful. You asked about films. Well, in all my films the rhythm determined the music. In the opera the situation is reversed, because the music has already been composed and I add my film to the soundtrack. To do that I use film language and editing techniques. Furthermore, every creation originates in the context of a number of films. In the case of Manon Lescaut, David Lynch and Louis Buñuel played a key role.
Yet on the stage you don't use film's most elementary instrument: the ubiquitous camera.
In the theatre the camera is an invention of the director. In the cinema we are in the image, in the absolute illusion, because we can't see the camera.
To return to Manon, do you remember what your first thoughts were about this opera?
You find the same theme in Manon and Turandot. Turandot has its origin in a fairytale, Manon has its origin in reality. However, both are stories about a pathological, toxic dependence in a relationship. A story about a man who sees a woman and becomes infatuated with her, who allows himself to be humiliated to the depths of his being and effaced.
There is something else that links them too: Turandot and Manon Lescaut are operas in which a woman has the title role and drives the story, but is not the heroin.
Here we touch on the essence of all beguilement: when we are in a romantic relationship we don't perceive reality as it is. We don't see the other person, but just a sort of aura that we project. Manon seems to me a classic story about an undefined female character, about the fantasy of a dominating woman, a woman who intimidates a male subject, a woman who is mysterious and changeable and about whom it is impossible to say anything with certainty. Manon keeps up appearances, wears masks, deals the cards without scruples. When I spoke to the singer who is performing the role of Manon, I told her that each scene must be played as if by a completely different actor, and in such a way that the observer, actually Des Grieux, tries to put all the pieces of that impossible puzzle together. Manon is the prototype of a femme fatale and a femme fatale is a figure who is even more unreal than Turandot, because – as some claim – Turandot lived in China or was a Mongolian princess. A femme fatale on the other hand is non-existent, a vision we project onto the woman in question. Here the archetype of the relationship between man and woman surfaces and in that relationship the subject – the amorous man – creates an object of desire and ends up communicating with his own imagination.
And so we are back inside the head of the director?
That's right, I have come to realize that the most interesting thing in art is always highly subjective.

Rated 5 out of 5 by CarrieM Beautiful, durable and well priced I had been looking for both cereal and soup bowls to match, in white. These are just beautiful and very durable. I use them every single day. April 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MelbaJr FAVORITE BOWLS These bowls are perfect for soup, salad, ice-cream, etc... My favorite feature is how well they fit in my dishwasher! Most bowls are deeper and require more space. I usually put them on the top shelf which takes up valuable glassware real estate. Not these, I love 'em! I plan to buy several more sets. No issues with microwave either as another reviewer mentioned. Also, I said that we use them once a week only because there was no "Used Daily" checkbox. October 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by cats are us Wish it was microwave safe I have used these bowls for many years. They are the perfect size and shape. We use them far more often than we do plates nowadays. Sadly they do not do well in the microwave. They get very hot amd craze. They are inexpensive enough to replace but a crazed dish harbors bacteria. Disappointing. February 25, 2011

MTVU Woodie Award Nominees
Last week the nominees for the 2009 MTVU Woodie Awards were announced, and of course peta2 was repped hard! The Woodie Awards come around every December just in time to give college students a much needed break from cramming for exams. The show always hosts an impressive list of performers, including Gym Class Heroes, All Time Low, Imogen Heap, and Vampire Weekend, and this year should be just as amazing!
Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes CC / meganwest
Death Cab for Cutie and Yeah Yeah Yeahs are both nominated for Best Video, which has previously been won by Motion City Soundtrack and Say Anything. Overnight sensation and vegetarian heartthrob Christofer Drew (a.k.a. Never Shout Never) is up for the Breaking Woodie award, which was taken home by There for Tomorrow at last year's festivities. Other notable peta2 contenders include Tech N9ne for Left Field Woodie and P.O.S. in the category with the fiercest competition, Performing Woodie. I gotta say, I saw P.O.S. a few times during my stay on Warped Tour this year and he killed it! He's got my vote! Who are you voting for?

Rated 5 out of 5 by Peggie BEAUTIFUL!! This mirror totally exceeded my expectations! It is prettier in person than it is online. It has a really nice weight. The bevel makes it look so much more expensive. I never write reviews but I read all the reviews to try to determine if I should but this so I wanted to let people know what a great deal this is!! I have looked at other mirrors and they are so much more expensive than this. Take a chance on it. I think you will be happy! March 11, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by dozcal stunning I'm so impressed with this mirror! The frame is wider - much nicer than it looks online. The edge is beveled - and it looks fantastic leaning against the wall. Looks way more expensive - very happy with this purchase January 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by shopper1234 Great Size The mirror is a great size and looks great as well. August 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by spikedalien Nicer than pictured I ordered this online, since I don't have a store anywhere close to me. I really think it's much nicer than pictured. It was worth the delivery surcharge (even though that had me hesitating before I ordered). The delivery company was very professional, and they even arrived *earlier* than their scheduled time in an ice-storm no less! The mirror's bevel is very prominent in real life, not like the picture. That's what makes a nice mirror to me. The frame is blackish, no wood grain visible. I put this in my living room and it really opens up the space. LOVE IT! I'm considering purchasing another for my bedroom. February 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by KT LOVE this mirror! I bought this mirror for my bedroom and loved it so much I bought another one to sit ontop my foyer table. We have very tall ceilings in the foyer and this mirror worked perfectly! November 19, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by Princess Neptune I Love It! I have seen these in very high end interior design stores and homes. I was so excited to find this one at an extremely affordable price. It's not only functional when dressing, it makes a statement in my bedroom! May 14, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by what nickname porter leaner mirror I bought one for the end of a long narrow hallway. I liked it so much that I bought another to lean on wall in dining room. In both cases, it opens the space and the mirror is beautiful, yet simple and elegant April 5, 2010
Rated 4 out of 5 by Grad student on a budget great mirror I really like this mirror. I contemplated buying it for about a month. Finally I decided to get it over other cheaper mirrors because of its size and better quality. It might cost more than cheap mirrors, but it's worth it and the mirror will last a long time. It is also a very versatile style and blends with my moroccan/boho theme. Very content with my purchase. October 6, 2011

I just realized I never posted my final report thing on this. Maybe tomorrow if anyone wants to see it. Actually, almost definitely tomorrow so I don't get any more messages about it like I did the other day...

Alright, I decided to post it tonight cause I'll be too lazy or something tomorrow. I wish I had cleaned it up more, cause it took me a few to figure out everything. Anyway, it was like 4 pages on MS word, most of it taken up by the posts I had quoted as sources for information or w/e.
Lavender Town Syndrome is reportedly caused by the music theme from Lavender Town in the original Pokemon red and green versions. According to stories, the there was a tone in the music that caused adverse effects on players in the age range of 7-12, mainly because the tone couldnt be heard by fully developed ears. Symptoms included:
Addiction to the game
And other possible effects
Suicides were usually by hanging, attempting to saw off their own limbs, and shoving their fists down their throats, thus suffocating themselves.
To start off, these are the links to two youtube videos with music from lavender town.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m14Hj4L64ts&feature (original version)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNJJ-...layer_embedded (revised version)
The difference in the sound is very obvious. While the revised version seems cleaner and more finished, the original seems to have more to it. Also, the original version gave me a slight headache while I was listening, and it also feels different. The original was able to creep me out slightly and it irritated me a little as well, however the revised version has no noticeable effects.
After some more investigation, it seems that LTS is caused by a binaural beat within the Lavender Town Theme. According to a piece on the internet (quoted below), The Lavender Town Tone can sporadically cause beta and theta frequencies to go back and forth too rapidly, thus adversely affecting some children and adults.
My final conclusion is that LTS, is real, however the parameters given within the stories on the internet are only partially true. Below is a list of what I believe to be realistic symptoms and parameters.
Ear trauma
Death (in very extreme cases)
Age is not a factor
Gender is not a factor
Effects vary from none to severe based variables such as volume, hearing sensitivity, and means of listening (i.e. headphone, no headphones, ect)
Insanity and suicide do not seem to be realistic, but as everyone hears the tone differently, they may be possible in very rare cases. Large scale suicides are very very unlikely.
Research Subjects: (Members from the website Pokedream.com/forums)
Keke le Cat: Age: ?, Stated that she had a little bit of a headache after listening to it, but she couldnt remember if she had it before listening.
Keke le Cats Daughter: Age:2, Effects were probably non-existant, according to keke, she laughed and danced as the music played. This leads me to believe that age may not actually be a factor in hearing the Lavender Town Tone.
Kirby: Age: 16, Reported a headache in the frontal region of his brain, but says its nothing serious. He thought it was just from the overlaying drum sounds.
Atomica: Age: 15, Listened to it five times with no effect, but listened a sixth time through a pair of HD headphones and after 20 seconds got queasy and had a bad headache. Said he had to lie down because of the headache. Also claims his cat puked because of it.
Mariruri(Kelsh): Age: ?, Says she cant listen to it because she gets a major headache and her eyes water. Says she hasnt listened to it in a long time and refuses to listen to it ever again.
Solly: Age: 16, Reports no effects other than that it scares the crap out of him. He also states an exact time that the tone starts playing in the vid of the original version. The fact that he recognizes the tone but isnt affected by it indicates that some may be immune to it. Volume may have played a part in this result however.
Midnight the Dark Espeon: Age: 16, No noticeable effects

Ever listened to the actual original theme? Don't.
A friend of mine is in the study of hemisync, which is the use of tunes to manipulate the brain for different purposes (he primarily studies the beneficial), much like the article above lists. I played it only for a few moments, and he told me to turn it off, explaining that it sporadically triggers beta and theta frequencies back and forth, too rapidly. THAT'S what was unbalancing the kids. I actually scared him by playing this for him, wondering what the hell the japanese were thinking by implementing this into a children's game.
It was late and I didn't explain myself well... I 'do' have stereo sound on my laptop, and he's studied it long enough to be able to interpret the beats even without headphones. When I said it sporadically triggered the beta & theta frequencies back & forth, too rapidly, he was referring to the beats alternating between the two sides, one sound, each ear. He can easily understand why this would mentally unbalance children, and even some adults. He said, and I quote: "Two things: One, never play that in front of me again, because that seriously disturbed me, and Two, I need to download that for weapons-grade experimentation."
He's funny, but regardless of the tone, the 'buried alive' and 'whithand' things are false. I have early japanese ports of pokemon green, and have found no evidence of these disturbing images and objects. The article above states that there were supplied images. I was unable to find 'any', nor any actual video of it existing anywhere.
This story was posted on serebii.net by banned member Kai the Squirtle. The link was http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=455354. It was posted in two parts, the first being dedicated to the Lavender Town Tone, and the second being about visual effects related to it. The visual effects, which can not possibly exist in the gameboy, and don't even appear in any ROM version as far as I know, are known as The White Hand Sprite, Ghost Animation, and the Buried Alive Model. The poster states at the end of his post that this is obviously fiction, but for fiction the post seems a little too complex. I will have to read this more later.
Overview [$OVR]
The phenomenon of the "Lavender Town Tone" is a legend that involves a bizarre spate of medical cases and deaths from around the country that have been connected to the "Pocket Monsters" (Pokémon) series of games, in particular the first two games of the series, "Red" and "Green". Though the event is largely unheard of due to disclosure laws for companies based in the Kyoto Prefecture, there is a large amount of information that has been brought into the open by a number of dedicated individuals, including 関 内直 (Seki Uchitada) 伊勢 満朝 (Ise Mitsutomo) and 佐藤 治情 (Satou Harue), to whom this page is dedicated. Thanks also go out to 安藤 景忠 (Andou Kagetada) for providing images and animated .gifs of the visual phenomena.
This analysis will discuss the other phenomena that is often confused with the "Lavender Town Tone", known as "White Hand Sprite", "Ghost Animation" and "buried alive model", as well as the semi-related developer-tag that was inserted into the game, and how to safely perform these "easter eggs" in post-first wave cartridges.
History of the Game [$HIG]
The first cases of the "Lavender Town Tone" and associated events were reported a few months after the release of of "Pocket Monsters Red and Green" for the handheld "Game Boy" videogame console. These videogames were wildly popular with children between the ages of seven and twelve (their core demographic), which was no doubt one of the reasons why the "Lavender Town Tone" had the level of severity that it did. In the game, the player takes on the role of a "Trainer", whose task it is to capture, tame and train wild creatures called "Pocket Monsters" for battle. These games, and the two newest additions to the series, "Pocket Monsters Gold and Silver", an anime, manga, figurines, a collectible card-game and home console games have resulted in Pocket Monsters becoming a multi-billion dollar franchise.
In one part of the game, the Trainer comes to a small, out-of-the-way place called "Lavender Town" (シオンタウン). This town is one of the smallest hamlets in the game (aside from the Trainer's own home town), and possesses very few of the services available to the Trainer in every other city in the game - indeed, the location would be unremarkable were it not for the "Pokémon Tower" (ポケモンタワー) located there - a colossal building that holds the graves of hundreds of deceased Pokémon.
It is theorised that, because of this location in the game, at least two hundred children lost their lives, and many more developed sudden illnesses and afflictons - and this does not consider the vast waves of unreported illnesses or deaths whose cause went unnoticed.
History of the Pathology [$HIP]
It was not until Spring/Summer of 1996 that the cases that would eventually become linked to the Lavender Town Tone began to surface. The earliest record of the acknowledgement of the effects of the Lavender Town Town that the author could find came from an internal report made in June 1996 by the company Game Freak Inc. (株式会社ゲームフリーク), which was then leaked by one of its former employees, Ms. Satou Harue. In it, an employee gives a list of names, dates and symptoms - records of children between the ages of 7 and 12 who had suffered various medical problems as a result of playing Pocket Monsters Red and Green versions. Some records are listed below, with the full listing in Appendix A [here]. (It should be noted that entries in the Appendix also include symptoms borne not from the "Lavender Town Tone" [an audio phenomenon] but from the so-called "White Hand Sprite", "Ghost Animation" and "buried alive model", all of which were visual phenomena that provoked similar but distinct symptoms. More details on Part Two [here]).
京极 勝女; April 12 1996 (11). Obstructive sleep apnea, severe migraines, otorrhagia, tinnitus.
千葉 広幸: May 23 1996 (12). General irritability, insomnia, addiction to videogame, nosebleeds. Developed into violent streaks against others and eventually himself. [自殺]
桃井 久江: April 27 1996 (11). Cluster headaches, irritability. Eventually took mixed painkillers. [自殺]
吉長 為真: March 4 1996 (7). Migraines, sluggish and slow behaviour, unresponsiveness. Developed into deafness, and went missing. Body discovered beside road April 20 1996. [死出]
The document that was circulated internally was the first time that these incidents had been connected with the Pocket Monsters videogames - until then, the cause had not been discovered or diagnosed by medical professionals. Indeed, it is uncertain how the company themselves managed to find the cases related to the event without seeking advice from health services.
Pathology Detail -- "Lavender Town Tone" [$PAT]
The predominant symptoms related to what would become known as the "Lavender Town Town" included headaches and migraines, bleeding from eyes and ears, mood swings and irritability, addiction to the games, unprovoked violence, withdrawal and unresponsiveness, and in approximately 67% of cases, suicidal tendencies. However, these symptoms only manifested in children between the ages of 7 and 12 years old who had reached the area in game known as "Lavender Town", most of whom were revealed to have been wearing headphones or earphones while playing the game (see Appendix A [here]).
As it turns out, the developers of the Lavender Town area had sought to make an area that would "leave an impression on the player", according to Seki Uchitada, who was a member of the development team. Seki claimed that at the time of development, a number of the team were interested in making Lavender Town a little different to the rest of the game.
"The Pokémon Tower is a visible result of that," Seki told ゲームの次元 ("Game's Dimensions" Magazine) in an interview earlier this year. "That, and the fact that Lavender Town is so different from all the other cities in the game: it is smaller, it has fewer people occupying it, it didn't have a gym... and, of course, the music was very, very eerie. In fact, in the first version of the game, we were told to slightly change the song played in the background of Lavender Town ... because our manager told us it would make children upset. The music used in subsequent versions is different."
Either Seki was unaware of the full impact of the Lavender Town Tone, or was vastly underexaggerating how "upset" children would get - no more is said of the music in the article, but there are mentions of Lavender Town's other macabre features (see below).
What Seki failed to disclose to Game's Dimensions Magazine was that the music used in the first-wave release of Pocket Monsters Red and Green was formulated out of an experiment in "binaural beats": using slightly different frequencies of sound, each frequency played in one ear through earphones or headphones, various psychological effects can be induced upon the listener. In most versions of the first wave releases, this resulted in the player feeling uneasy, apprehensive, and mildly disturbed. However, for upwards of two-hundred children, it provoked a variety of disturbances in the brain that went undetected purely because it was undetectable by fully developed human ears - instead, only children fell victim to the tones , resulting in psychological and physiological problems that in some cases led to death - many of which were suicides.Part 2:
Pathology Detail- Visual Overview
These visual effects are known among programming circles as "The White Hand Sprite", the "Ghost Animation", and the "Buried Alive Model". Each has been found to cause headaches, nausea, and in severe cases, hemorrhaging of the brain and lungs. While around 70% of Lavender Town Syndrome (LTS) is due to the Lavender Tone, the remaining percentage is split among these visual phenomena. This is partly due to the visual stimuli occurring after the player is introduced to the Lavender Tone. It has been theorized that those unaffected by the aural stimulation, such as the deaf or the hard of hearing, make up the remaining 30%. While viewing these models can cause these effects, there are certain methods that allow a viewer to safely examine them in detail.
The White Hand Sprite
Known in the code as WhitHand.gif, this was scripted to appear as a Pokemon on the third floor of the Lavender Tower. It is divided into four separate animations: an introduction (the "cry" a Pokemon unleashes before a battle), an idle, and two attacks. These attacks are unknown, as they are listed simply as "Fist" and "Brutal". While viewing the animation has been proven to be hazardous, viewing the frames of the model has been proven to have no adverse effects. The White Hand is depicted as a shriveled, slightly decayed hand, with surprising attention to detail: flesh is peeling back from the bone, and several tendons dangle realistically out of the wrist. The first attack is the hand balling into a fist, then swinging forward. However, the "brutal" animation is missing several frames: The hand seems to open up, then cuts out. After a few seconds, it reappears, closed again. No record has been found of these missing frames.
Ghost Animation
The Ghost Animation, coded as Haunting.swf, was intended to be placed in several areas throughout the tower, including in the center of a path on the second floor. However, players cannot interact with it, leaving many to believe that it was intended as a "background feature". The ghost animation as well must be viewed in individual frames. It is comprised of 59 frames total. However, after extraction, around half of these frames have been revealed to be the standard ghost model used in Pocket Monsters. Around a quarter of the remaining frames are comprised of static, to produce a "fading" effect. However, interspersed with these bursts of static are several frames of screaming faces, along with images of a skeletal man in a cloak (hypothesized to be the Grim Reaper) and of several killed corpses. The meaning behind these are unknown- While under oath before the Video Games Commission Board, Lead Programmer Hisashi Sogabe testified as to having "No knowledge as to where these images surfaced." Out of all the phenomena associated with LTS, this animation is the most speculated on: In his thesis "Video Games and The Manipulation of the Human Mind", [viewable in appendix C] Dr. Jackson Turner argued that the images were intentionally placed in. Due to their brief time appearing on the screen, and the graphic nature of the frames, Turner theorizes that these were meant to subliminally influence players into becoming more frightened by the disturbing surroundings.
The Buried Alive Model
Often referred to as its code, the Buryman script, the Buried Alive Model was to be found on the final story of the Pokemon Tower, in what has now been replaced with the Marowak ghost. According to the scripts assigned to it, the Buried Alive model was intended to be the "boss" of the tower. Once reaching the top floor, the following conversation would have taken place.
Buried Alive: You're... Here.
BA: I'm trapped...
BA: And I'm lonely...
BA: So very lonely...
BA: Won't you join me?
After this, the battle would have been initiated. Once in
"battle view", the Buried Alive model appears to be a decaying human corpse attempting to crawl out of the ground. It has been programmed to have two White Hands, a Gengar, and a Muk. Strangely enough, a protocol for the Buried Alive's actions after it was defeated were not written. In the case of the player defeating him, the game would freeze. However, a specific ending was written by an unknown programmer upon losing the battle. In this ending, the Buried Alive was to have stated, "Finally, fresh meat!" followed by several lines of gibberish. He was to have then dragged the player character into the ground surrounding him. The scene would finish with a typical "Game Over" screen; however, in the background, an image of the Buried Alive character devouring the player was to have been shown. Especially strange are the protocols for after this scene. The cartridge was to download this image to the small internal memory contained in the Gameboy, overwriting the title screen that normally accompanied a Gameboy turning on. Instead, whenever it was started, the player would view this image as the sound file staticmesh.wav was played. The intended purpose for this effect, unlike many of the other factors leading towards LTS, is unknown.
"I can't explain just how it feels,
the thoughts of my premature burial.
Inside this oblong box I lie,
with the hope I'll be buried alive."
if you'd like i have my personal experience
age 18:
TEST 1: headphones
as i listened to the track, the higher notes were piercing and more annoying than anything, but i didn't let that distract me. the music was very repetitive as always. there was a slight pain in my eyes later in the track, as well as a throbbing in my temples. the most effective part of the song that makes this happen is when all you hear are the small drum thuds, as the treble dissonance builds. its almost unbearable, but its short, and the only thing in the song that could possibly render it harmful.
TEST 2: no headphones
well, there is definitely less bass, so less dissonance in the music. the higher, more annoying passages are still there, but less piercing. there really isn't much more than a synthy-trebley whisper. the more painful treble part described in the last test was less harmful. i conclude that this test is definitely harmless.
and that's my take on it
your welcome
Those stories are creepy.

It doesn't take a "conspiracy theorist" to wonder about the reasons behind the sudden resignation of the Pope; the first time this has happened in 600 years. As the days have passed, details have begun to emerge and it seems that the most likely catalyst was his connection to the child abuse scandals rampant within the Catholic Church. Now we find out that as a result of these concerns, he will be hiding out in the Vatican for the remainder of his days. From Reuters:
(Reuters) – Pope Benedict's decision to live in the Vatican after he resigns will provide him with security and privacy. It will also offer legal protection from any attempt to prosecute him in connection with sexual abuse cases around the world, Church sources and legal experts say.
"His continued presence in the Vatican is necessary, otherwise he might be defenseless. He wouldn't have his immunity, his prerogatives, his security, if he is anywhere else," said one Vatican official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The final key consideration is the pope's potential exposure to legal claims over the Catholic Church's sexual abuse scandals.

ZF-5124: getTmpDir method fails when trying to detect writable tmp dir
When the method _getTmpDir tries to detect the tempdir by creating a file, it fils a variable that isn't used anymore. See line 1162 in Zend/File/Transfer/Adapter/Abstract.php, this should be $this->_tmpDir, not $tmpdir
Thanks for writing.

I've been on the search for new summer salad ideas—one that is fresh, easy and delicious… and I found it.
I really like this because the dressing is also homemade and contains no sugar. The recipe for this goat cheese, beet and pistachio.
Salad is as follows:
1 cup baby spinach leaves
1 cup arugula
6 oz. goat cheese
4–6 golden beets, cooked, peeled and coarsely chopped
½ cup pistachio nuts, coarsely chopped
4 T. extra virgin olive oil
1 T. white wine vinegar
2 shallots finely chopped
1 T. coarse grain mustard
2 t. kosher salt
2 t. ground black pepper
In a food processor, blend the oil and vinegar; add the mustard, salt and pepper. Add the shallots but do not process. Set aside.
Arrange the spinach leaves and arugula on a large serving platter. Top with beets and goat cheese and drizzle with a little of the dressing. Sprinkle with pistachios and add additional dressing as desired.
Help me in my quest for more great new salads by sharing your favorite salad recipes with me as well. I want to make this a sensational summer salad season.

Silver Valley: Special Olympics in county gets gift
Published: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.

Kenneth Gallimore presented a cornhole set he constructed to Special Olympics Davidson County at a meeting of the Silver Valley Civitan Club on Jan. 14. Accepting the gift was Mary Ann Brown, local coordinator of Special Olympics.
The contribution marks the 35th anniversary of the club's association and support of Special Olympics. Three members of the club attended an organizational meeting in January 1978 for the Special Olympics North Carolina Spring (now Summer) Games to be held at High Point College (now University) in May of that year.
Silver Valley Civitan is noted for its presentation of competition awards to athletes at the SONC Fall Games and the local spring and winter games. The club will sponsor its 17th annual Special Olympics Western Dance & Social on Jan. 25.
Karen Swaim presented a program about Alpha Healthcare of the Carolinas,.
Nearly 30 people attended the gathering at New Jerusalem United Church of Christ. The Silver Valley Civitan Club was chartered almost 54 years ago on April 25, 1959. The club meets the second and fourth Monday each month.
The annual Special Olympics Western Dance & Social sponsored by the club was postponed from Jan. 25 and will be held Feb. 1 at the same time and place.
