The audition for a lead singer continued on Saturday night, July 19, 2014 at the Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix for the Happy Together Tour band (or whatever name they prefer to call themselves). Guitarist Godfrey Townsend, keyboard player Manny Pocarazzo, bass player John Montagna and drummer Steve Murphy, who have played together since their days with the Alan Parsons Project Live and now for five consecutive summers as the Happy Together Tour band, backed six legendary singers in the hopes that one might stand out. The problem is, several did.
Admittedly, it was not the enormous talent of Townsend, Pocarazzo, Montagna and Murphy that promoters used to draw in the crowd. It was singers Gary Lewis of Gary Lewis and the Playboys, Mitch Ryder of Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels, Mark Farner from Grand Funk Railroad, Chuck Negron from Three Dog Night and Flo and Eddie (Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan) of the Turtles that people came to see.
Also, admittedly, The Happy Together Tour is the brainchild of Volman and Kaylan who thirty years ago, got the idea of combining several popular 1960's artists and placing them together for one concert experience. Although there was some gap between tours, this year's Happy Together Tour marks the fifth consecutive year the musical revue has hit the road and will, by tours end, have appeared in 56 cities.
Over the last five years, the only constant members of the tour have been Flo and Eddie and the backing band. Using one set of musicians to back the artists insures that there are no gaps between performances. Saturday night, each artist played a twenty five to thirty minute set with the voice of legendary DJ, Shadoe Stevens, introducing each singer with a brief biography of their work.
First out of the chute was Gary Lewis of Gary Lewis and the Playboys fame. The son of comedian/entertainer, Jerry Lewis and not, as Lewis told in an amusing story, the son of rockabilly piano player Jerry Lee Lewis, Lewis started out with "Count Me In," one of the eight songs, seven of which were Billboard Magazine's top ten hits, that he performed.
Although the crowd was subdued for Lewis' performance, as they were for most of the night, that didn't stop Lewis from giving it his all. Strumming rhythm guitar, Lewis playfully interacted with the band, whose harmonies with Lewis enhanced each number. As Lewis pointed out, songs such as, "This Diamond Ring," "Everybody Loves a Clown," and "She Just My Style." helped explain why Lewis beat out Sinatra and Elvis as Cashbox Magazine's male vocalist of the year in 1965.
If Gary Lewis was the squeaky clean singer your parents would actually let you listen to, then Mitch Ryder was the dangerous artist they would not. Sporting a hat and dark glasses as he took the stage, Ryder's gruff voice, coupled with Pocarazzo's organ sound, made the opening number, "Little Latin Lupe Lu," distinctively Ryder.
Following with "Jenny Take a Ride!" and concluding "Devil With A Blue Dress On/Good Golly Miss Molly," Ryder's five song set should have had people on their feet, clapping along. Through no fault of Ryder, only a few people in the crowd let go. But Ryder's stage demeanor did not disappoint. His songs, coupled with his in between song banter, affirmed why Ryder was considered one of the mid 1960's outlaws.
Grand Funk Railroad's former lead guitarist and singer, Mark Farner, was next up. The energetic Farner did his best to coax some response out of the audience who warmly greeted him as he opened with "The Loco-Motion," Grand Funk's number one song from 1974.
Farner's ability as a guitarist was then on display as he allowed drummer Steve Murphy to take over lead vocals for another Grand Funk number one song, "We're An American Band." As a solo artist, Farner embraced the band concept, not only allowing Murphy to sing, but firing off a nice guitar duet with band guitarist Godfrey Townsend. A rock concert had finally broken out.
But it took Farner's version of "Some Kind of Wonderful," to finally get the audience to sing along and stand before he closed with the Grand Funk classic "I'm Your Captain (Closer To Home). The song proved that Farner has not lost his strong vocal ability.
After an intermission, Chuck Negron, formerly of the group Three Dog Night took the stage. In an instant he went from quietly asking "how ya doing," to strongly hitting the opening notes to "Shambala."
From there it was a cavalcade of Three Dog Night hits. "Celebrate," "Mama Told Me Not To Come," which takes on a new flavor given Negron's triumph over the demons the song talks about, "Eli's Coming," and "One," showcased Negron's flawless vocals. And although the audience still hadn't jumped to their feet to clap and dance along, there were more than a few who were silently mouthing the lyrics.
But THE song of 1971 changed all that. With the familiar opening notes of "Joy To The World" emanating from Pocarazzo's keyboards, the audience sang out "Jeremiah was a bull frog," and never stopped. Negron had finally animated the crowd.
It was fitting that a concert that had begun with the son of Jerry Lewis ended with pop rock's version of Martin and Lewis, The Turtles' Flo and Eddie, Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan. With the energy level now up a notch or two, Volman entered the arena dancing "Gangam Style" while Kaylan preferred to stroll onstage holding a wine glass. After Volman had successfully thrown a drumstick to the ground and caught the rebound, the duo broke into the 1967 Turtle's hit "She'd Rather Be With Me."
Known for their sense of humor almost as much as for their musical ability, Flo and Eddie kept the audience entertained with both. Volman bounced tambourines off his arm as Kaylan did the lead vocals to "You Baby." Kaylan warned the audience that despite the band's playing a familiar song's beginning, that "you don't know what we're going to sing." He was right, Volman then rattled off portions of The Doors' "Riders on the Storm," "Back Door Man," and Alice Cooper's "School's Out."
A concert billed as the Happy Together Tour must have a reason. Kaylan and Volman coaxed the entire audience out their seats for "two minutes and forty eight seconds," for The Turtle's 1967 hit that gave name to the tour, "Happy Together." The audience loudly sang and clapped along and why not? Despite what seems to be overplay of the song, it's actually a great song.
Despite Volman's pointing out that guitarist Townsend had been fired from every job he has ever had and that there was no guarantee that he'd be in the band next week, the Happy Together Band held one final audition for their lead singer.
For an encore, each performer was brought back on stage to do one verse from the most popular song of what they had previously sung. The result was a stage full of six legendary singers and four gifted musicians. Given the audience's rousing standing ovation for each performer, it appears that the audition process will need to continue for another 20 dates.
Set List:
Gary Lewis: Count Me In | Sure Gonna Miss Her | Green Grass | Save Your Heart For Me | Everybody Loves A Clown | My Heart's Symphony | This Diamond Ring | She's Just My Style

"Destroying a tropical rainforest and other species-rich ecosystems is like burning all the paintings of the Louvre to cook dinner."— Edward O. Wilson, the "father of biodiversity."
"Over Earth's history, ocean life has recovered from numerous sudden extinction episodes by adaptation and evolution of new species, but the time scales for extinction and re-population are millions of years, not a few hundred years. Human-driven ocean acidification is affecting the ocean far faster than the Earth's natural recovery pace can accommodate. Today's rate of acidification is 10 times faster than anything experienced since the demise of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago."
"We are dependent on the natural world for the very air we breathe and every particle of food we eat. Many people, including me, would say we are dependent on it for our very sanity." — Sir David Attenborough
"It is not right to destroy the world God has given us. He created everything; as the Bible says, 'The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven' (Acts 17:24). To drive to extinction something He has created is wrong, for He has a purpose in for everything...We Christians have a responsibility to take the lead in caring for the earth."
The longer global warming continues, the greater the risk of "waking the sleeping giants"—major feedbacks such as ice sheet collapse, methane "burps," or ecosystem collapse—that could ignite abrupt or runaway warming beyond our control.
As Earth's oceans warm and become more acidic, ocean creatures including pteropods are undergoing severe stress. They are harbingers of change. It's possible by 2050 that they might not be able to make a shell any more and if we lose these organisms the impact on the food chain will be catastrophic.
"Nature favours those organisms which leave the environment in better shape for their progeny to survive" — James Lovelock

Japan Digest: Cabinet Approval Rating Slumps, Ginza Heist Convictions
Here is a roundup of news from Japanese newspapers, news wires and websites on Thursday, October 7, 2010. The Wall Street Journal has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy.
Approval Rating for Kan's Cabinet Slides to 47.6% in Latest Poll: The support rating for Prime Minister Naoto Kan's Cabinet skidded to 47.6 per cent in the latest Kyodo News poll released Wednesday, reflecting dissatisfaction with its handling of a territorial row with China and a political funds scandal involving ruling party heavyweight Ichiro Ozawa. The approval rating for the Cabinet fell 16.8 percentage points from 64.4 per cent in the previous poll, conducted shortly after Kan reshuffled the cabinet on Sept. 17, while its disapproval rating rose to 36.6 per cent from the previous 21.2 per cent. (Source: Kyodo)
Japan's Kawamura to Head Up International Legal Body: A Kyoto-born lawyer has been chosen as the first Japanese citizen to lead the International Bar Association. Akira Kawamura, 69, takes over Thursday as president of the London-based IBA, which has a membership of 40,000 individual lawyers as well as bar associations and law societies in more than 130 countries. (Source: Asahi)
Hong Kong Court Jails Three for $2 Million Ginza Jewelry Heist: A Hong Kong court Wednesday sentenced three men to prison for their roles in a heist in which more than $2 million worth of watches were stolen from a store in Tokyo's Ginza shopping district in January. Chan Kong-yiu, 53, Choi So-man, 50, and Chow Kwong-tung, 54, were each sentenced to 34 months in prison by the District Court for "conspiring to steal" 163 brand-name watches from the Tenshodo store in Ginza. The stolen items were seized from the suspects' homes and three bank safety deposit boxes in Hong Kong after they were shipped from Japan by mail. (Source: Mainichi)

For the first time since November 2000, I am home alone. Literally. All three of my children are away at overnight camp for two weeks and my husband has taken advantage of the opportunity to go off to the golf course as much as possible. And I must confess, I like it!
Admittedly, passing by their eerily quiet bedrooms in the evening makes me wistfully think about tucking them in. I have also been to the post office pretty much every day since they left, sending them mail and care packages. When I wake up at my usual earlier-than-most hour, the first thought that comes to mind is of my youngest (only 7, after all), sleeping in a bunk somewhere in Algonquin Park where I have never been myself, and all I can think of is that I hope she is not awake thinking about me, because that would mean she is homesick.
But, at the same time, a great calm has come over me. No drop off, no pick up, no soccer practice, no playdates to schedule, no messes to clean up, no yelling, no fighting, no nails to clip, no lunches to pack…I spent some time this weekend organizing some post-school, year-end messes and now I am free as the wind to go to movies (done!), out for dinner (done!), go to yoga class (done!), take a ride on a hot air balloon (next weekend!), watch what Will and Kate are up to (doing!), work (doing!) and read a book (doing!).
A change is as good as a rest sometimes, but I better not get used to this life as it's only for two weeks.
How are you coping with your kids being away at camp?
I am not alone. According to the poll we are running on our homepage right now, 48% of SavvyMoms love the same sense of satisfaction I get from purging and cleaning and whipping the house into shape for spring.
While I am surprised, I could not agree more. Every year, as soon as we finish our March Break ski trip, I kick into high gear in a desperate attempt to attack all the messy areas that have built up over the fall and winter and get it all done before soccer season (3 kids, 4 teams…not a lot of free time) starts in May.
So herewith, my spring cleaning/purging schedule:
Weekend 1:
Weekend 2:
Weekend 3:
Weekend 4:
Weekend 5:
Weekend 6:
Hopefully by May I'll be able to enjoy the rest of the spring and summer!
My sister and some of the SavvyMoms at HQ make fun of my springtime obsession, but it makes me feel lighter and calmer (so I carry on). How do you attack spring cleaning? I would love to get your tips.

If you need something to calm a crying baby, try rubbing some lavender oil on your neck and then snuggle the baby close to your neck area. The aroma will immediately relax your child. You can also use lavender oil when you want your baby to fall asleep. Provide your toddler with a bed if he or she exceeds three feet in height or is able to climb out of the crib. The new bed may be a bit scary so you should try to turn it into something fun by getting new bedding that has the child's favorite characters on them. A great parenting tip is to never physically abuse your child. This severely damages your child, and if you're caught, your child can be taken away from you. There are better ways to instruct and discipline your child, never resort to physical abuse.
Do not adopt a negative discourse with your children; focus on what you expect them to do rather than what you do not want them to do. If children are constantly being told what not to do, they might feel as though they are being unfairly restricted. If you emphasize what a child can do instead of what is forbidden, you help them gain independence and reduce fights. No two children are alike. One child may respond to one way of discipline that may completely fail with another child. That is the case with rewards, and punishments as well. Even though this is the case, remember the basic methods you have learned.
Scheduling is essential when it comes to adolescents. There needs to be a plan that is set into place so that everyone knows where they need to be and who is taking them there. Parents need to work together as a team to get their kids where they need to go. Retro-reflective materials are very beneficial and an upgrade to the traditional backpack for your child. This material also comes in velcro strips which makes it easy to put on and take off. The reflection from these strips is especially important in the early light of the morning because it makes the child much more visible.
Regardless of their age, children who walk to or from school need to have retro-reflective material affixed to their person in a highly conspicuous spot, such as on their backpack or clothing. You can also purchase this material in Velcro, which will make it easier for your child to strap on. This material can improve your child's safety when out on the road at night, reflecting their backpack off car lights.
One of the most important things to remember when raising a child is to stay calm. No matter how angry or upset you get, you need to take a deep breath and calm down before you react. If you react while you're upset or angry, you're liable to make rash decisions that you'll regret. When helping your child cope with bullying, the best thing to do is talk to them, share your experiences, and encourage them to be open and honest with you. Inform yourself of the local policies, so your child will know what to do if he needs help.
The ideal of not talking to strangers is a very important lesson to instill in your children from a very young age. It can be hard for an adult to tell who is being genuinely sincere, and who has ulterior motives. Children are especially easy to deceive. Teach them to yell "NO!" and to run away as fast as possible. It is important to teach your child through your actions. Children are paying attention to what their parents are doing all of the time. They notice how you react to a situation to learn how they should react should a similar situation should arise. You need to demonstrate the actions you want them to take. Following these guidelines will allow you to form a solid, comprehensive foundation for future parenting experiences. There is no exact plan for parenting that fits every persons lifestyle. There are no right or wrong methods, within reason. Among these tips, take to heart the ones that sound useful, and give them a try. Children grow up fast, so take advantage of the exciting times you and your child will spend together.

We describe a 3.5-year-old female with Alpers disease with a POLG genotype of p.A467T/p.G848S and with a lethal outcome. Laboratory investigation revealed elevated CSF neopterin, IL-6, IL-8, IFN-gamma, reduced CSF 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF), and increased serum as well as CSF folate receptor blocking autoantibodies. Treatment with oral Leucovorine (5-formyl-tetrahydrofolate) was initiated at 0.25mg/kg bid, and later increased to 4mg/kg bid. Under treatment CSF levels of 5MTHF, seizure frequency and communicative abilities improved. Over a time span of 17months, CSF levels of IL-6 and IFN-gamma decreased, levels of folate receptor blocking autoantibodies continued to raise, whereas CSF IL-8 remained elevated 1500-fold above normal. The child died without apparent stress at the age of 5.5years. Alpers disease, a neurodegenerative disease usually presents in the first years of life as a progressive encephalopathy with multifocal myoclonic seizures, developmental regression, cortical blindness and early death. The underlying genetic defect has been attributed to mutations of the catalytic subunit of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase-gamma leading to an organ-specific mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome with reduced activity of respiratory chain enzyme complexes in the brain and the liver. A curative therapy is not available. This case report of Alpers disease provides new insights into the pathophysiology of Alpers disease, where mitochondrial dysfunction in conjunction with inflammatory cytokines and blocking folate receptor autoantibodies may lead to a secondary cerebral folate deficiency syndrome. The treatment of the latter provides relief to the patient without stopping the underlying disease.

A phone call can change your life, but for one man it can also end it. Set entirely within and around the confines of a New York City phone booth, thriller follows Stu Shepard, a low-rent media consultant who is trapped after being told by a caller - a serial killer with a sniper rifle - that he'll be shot dead if he hangs up. A sudden and shocking act of violence near the booth draws the attention of the police, who arrive backed with a small army of sharpshooters. They believe that Stu, not the unseen caller of whom they remain unaware, is the dangerous man with a gun. The senior officer on the scene, Captain Ramey, tries to talk Stu out of the booth. But unbeknownst to Ramey, his team, the media circus that has flocked to the site - and Stu's wife, Kelly, and his client /prospective girlfriend, Pamela - the caller has them all in his high-powered rifle sights.

Can I upgrade my laptop to an SSD by:
- Doing an image backup of my C: partition to an external drive
- Installing the SSD
- Restoring the image
Or do I need to do a clean install of Windows 7 on the SSD?

Disk-to-disk or image copying may require you to match the partition size of the HD to fit on the SSD. You could use a tool like ""GParted" http://gparted.sourceforge.net/
The category leader is "Ghost" - http://www.symantec.com/business/ghost-solution-suite
If you want to use free-as-in-beer tools, try one of these: "Clonezilla" - http://www.clonezilla.org/ "Partition saving" - http://damien.guibouret.free.fr/en/
I've had good luck with Clonezilla, although I've not used either for HD-to-SSD .
what the other guys have said, in addition to that you will have to tweak your hard drive a little in order to make it work effectively.
SSDs use different data blocks than mechanical drives, you will find that when you clone a mechanical drive image onto SSD the data blocks will not be optimal.
You need to undergo a "SSD aligning process" detailed here http://lifehacker.com/5837769/make-sure-your-partitions-are-correctly-aligned-for-optimal-solid-state-drive-performance
Make no mistaken this isn't just a tweak that gives 0.5% boost in performance, this is actually very significant and there are resounding benchmarks that show a stark contrast in performance between a properly aligned SSD and an incorrectly aligned SSD.
I would recommend slaving both of them to a secondary machine, and doing a disk to disk ghost image. Or you could use one of several other free programs, or pay the money and get Acronis and be super happy.
I just did this very thing on my Lenovo Tablet over the weekend, went off without a hitch; My SSD drive was also smaller than my original. I used an old version of Ghost that is on my Hiren Boot Cd and did a simple drive to drive copy.
I already did that with clonezila, the only problem is if your ssd have less capacity of space then your HDD clonezila will not recover the image (maybe any image manager can do it if you try to recover a large partition on a short space hard disk). The solution for this problem is resize your partition for the space that your SSD provides.
I heavily recommend Clonezilla for backing up and restoring an entire computer. Simply grab the latest copy of Clonezilla, burn it to a CD or make a bootable USB thumb drive, and do a

The theme for the second running of the Dogwood Classic was announced today on Play 103.7's "Jack & Melissa's" Richmond based morning show and tailgating attendees that have an affinity for James Bond and casino type activities will be pleased.
"Casino Royale" is the theme and Colonial Downs officials are encouraging attendees to embrace that when planning Dogwood Classic tailgate décor, food and beverage offerings, and attire worn by both male and female partygoers.
"Casino Royale" was the name of author Ian Fleming's first James Bond novel in 1953. The original TV adaptation of the novel occurred in 1954, and the original Casino Royale spy movie came out in 1967 starring David Niven and a large ensemble cast. Actor Daniel Craig's first Bond role was in the 2006 version of "Casino Royale" which produced $599 million in box office receipts.
"We hope folks get really creative on what they wear to the Dogwood Classic and how they decorate their tailgate parties," said Dogwood's celebrity spokesperson Jack Lauterback. "Red and black checkered tablecloths, fuzzy dice, martini type cocktails and upscale dining options are just a few of the aspects that could be considered."
Awards will be given out on Dogwood Day for the best themed tailgate and fanciest hats worn based on theme.
Tailgating spots are on sale at dogwoodclassic.com along the homestretch for $200 or along the backstretch and in the turns for $125. Each tailgate spot also includes six general admission tickets. Additional tickets can be purchased in advance or day of the event for $10.
Anyone that purchases a tailgate spot will receive an invitation for 2 to the Dogwood Classic all-inclusive "Launch Party" Saturday March 1st at the Bull & Bear Club. The invitation only event, which runs from 4-8 PM, includes food, beverages, "for fun" casino games and live music with the band Vinyl Headlights.

It doesn't pay to leave a Nevada Wolf Pack baseball game early.
The Wolf Pack erupted in the late innings for the third consecutive game, scoring eight runs in the top of the ninth inning Saturday night to beat Hawaii 10-8 in front of a stunned crowd of 3,434 at Les Murakami Stadium in Honolulu.
The 10 runs are the most the Pack has scored in a game this season and are the most the Wolf Pack has ever scored at Hawaii.
Kewby Meyer, who played baseball at the Kamahameha Schools in Honolulu, slammed a three-run homer to tie the game at 6-6 in the ninth. Scott Kaplan later walked with the bases loaded to give the Pack the lead, 7-6, and Justin Bridgman drove in a run with a sacrifice fly for an 8-6 lead. Kyle Hunt drilled a two-run double for a pair of insurance runs.
Hunt had two hits and Austin Byler walked twice in the ninth. Byler also drilled a home run in the first inning for a 1-0 Pack lead. This was just the second game this season (the other was March 8 at San Diego State) that featured two Pack home runs.
Hawaii pitchers walked five Pack hitters in the ninth and threw two wild pitches. There was also a passed ball in the inning.
The eight runs in the ninth are the most runs the Pack has scored in one inning since an 11-run outburst in the sixth inning of a 12-2 win over Santa Barbara on March 9, 2012 at Peccole Park.
Barry Timko started and went 7.1 innings for the Pack. Timko allowed five hits and five runs (four earned), striking out six and walking just one. Four Hawaii pitchers combined to walk eight.
Adam Whitt earned the victory to improve to 2-2. Whitt allowed an unearned run in the eighth on two hits as Hawaii scored three runs to take a 6-2 lead. Colby Blueberg pitched a scoreless ninth inning for the Pack.
The Wolf Pack had 11 hits, two each by Hunt, Byler and Bryce Greager. Greager singled and scored in the fifth inning as the Pack cut Hawaii's lead to 3-2.
Jordan Devencenzi singled and scored in the ninth. Devencenzi also was hit by a pitch in the fifth with the bases loaded to force in Greager.
Scott Squier went 7.2 innings for Hawaii and allowed six hits and two runs. All of the damage in the ninth came off relievers Eric Gleese, Jordan DePonte and Josh Elms, who combined to allowed five hits, eight runs (all earned) on five walks in the inning.
The Wolf Pack has now won three games in a row to get back to .500 for the first time since they were 2-2. The Pack, which has two games remaining in this series at Hawaii, has also won six of its last eight games.
Hawaii fell to 7-11.

April 23, 1999
PHILADELPHIA - Junior Jacob Busienei posted an NCAA provisional qualifying mark in the mens 3,000-meter steeplechase to lead the Tulane track and field team in its second day of strong performances at the Penn Relay Carnival.
Visit the Tulane Green Wave Sports Shop
Busienei, a native of Eldoret, Kenya, posted a time of 8:53.98 in the steeplechase to finish ninth in the field of 17. His time was a season best and less than two tenths of a second shy of a school record. It was Busieneis first NCAA provisional qualifier of the 1999 outdoor season.
Tulane continued its run of strong performances in the relay events, as the womens 4x1,500-meter relay team posted a top-five finish. The quartet of Alison Lambert, Hanna Ritakallio, Katrina Gemmell and Hanne Lyngstad finished fifth in a season-best time of 17:49.33.
The mens 4x400-meter relay team also registered a top-10 finish with a ninth-place effort on Friday. Edrige Darling, Justin Robinson, Carlton Davis and Alberto Francis teamed up for a time of 3:17.48.
The mens 4x100-meter relay team of Alexander Lakhanpal, Davis, Tim Carter and Jamal Jones ran a 42.49 to post a new season best. The Wave did not qualify for the finals in this event.
Senior Nadia Smith registered another top-five finish for the Green Wave in the womens long jump. Smith jumped 19-feet, 1 1/4 inches to finish fifth.
Through the first two days of the competition, Tulane student-athletes have recorded eight top-10 finishes, six season-best performances and one NCAA provisional qualifying mark.
The 105th running of the Penn Relay Carnival continues Saturday, April
24. The event is hosted by the University of Pennsylvania.

PDC's Arsenal preview
by Stuart Vose
Boss on Saturday's game, progress during break and Fletcher.
Paolo Di Canio has relished the chance to work with his squad during the international break ahead of this weekend's game against Arsenal.
A number of players have been away with their countries but a sizeable contingent remained behind, including the likes of Fabio Borini and Ki Sung-Yueng.
And the Black Cats have been busy on the training ground ahead of Saturday's game at the Stadium of Light.
"For the players that remained in here [during the break] we have had some very good sessions and taken advantage," he said.
"We have had full immersion in terms of strategy and tactics. We are still a work in progress.
"Now the transfer market has finished we can work with the players we have. This is the squad which will be together at a minimum until January.
"We have recovered also some players who have maybe been out with a light injury.
"It has been a good moment to recover energy and work on details."
Meanwhile Di Canio's attacking options have been boosted after Steven Fletcher made a successful return from injury against Crystal Palace last time out.
The Scot, who was Sunderland's top scorer last season, marked his comeback with a goal in his first game since hurting his ankle in March.
And Di Canio says the former Wolves man is available again for this weekend's game and says his importance to the side is clear for all to see.
"Steven was crucial in some ways when he came on against Crystal Palace," he said. "He caused problems for the opposing defence.
"To play from the kick-off, to run on and off the ball and work hard for your team-mates costs something in terms of energy.
"That does not mean he is not fit. He can play; we will see during the game.
"He is fit enough to cause problems, score a goal and give more belief to our players and his team-mates next to him that when the ball arrives there he can score.
"We saw straight away against Crystal Palace that Steven is a very important player."
Saturday's opponents have won two and lost one of their first three games and travel north in the wake of the £42.5m signing of Real Madrid star Mezut Ozil.
Di Canio says the German international is a good addition to a talented squad and feels hard work and application is what his side must produce in order to counter the North London club.
"He [Ozil] is a naturally talented player – a champion," he said. "Arsenal have many, many good players and he is another one. We have to be careful because they have obvious quality.
"They play good football and have quality in every area of the field. We have to play as a team – a strong unit – and try to damage them in the way we can."

Is the initial value problem of an ODE considered as a dynamic system?
A dynamic system is defined as
In the most general sense, a dynamical system is a tuple (T, M, Φ) where T is a monoid, written additively, M is a set and Φ is a function $$ \Phi: U \subset T \times M \to M $$ with $$ I(x) = \{ t \in T : (t,x) \in U \}\,$$ $$ \Phi(0,x) = x\,$$ $$ \Phi(t_2,\Phi(t_1,x)) = \Phi(t_1 + t_2, x),\, for \, t_1, t_2, t_1 + t_2 \in I(x)\, $$
For an initial value problem $$ \dot{\boldsymbol{x}}=\boldsymbol{v}(t,\boldsymbol{x}) $$ $$ \boldsymbol{x}|_{{t=0}}=\boldsymbol{x}_0 $$
the solution is an evolution function $$ \boldsymbol{{x}}(t)=\Phi(t,\boldsymbol{{x}}_0) $$
I don't think $\Phi$ satisfy $\Phi(t_2,\Phi(t_1,x)) = \Phi(t_1 + t_2, x),\, for \, t_1, t_2, t_1 + t_2 \in I(x)\, $. For example, when $v(t,x) = f(t)$, $\Phi(t,\boldsymbol{{x}}_0) = \int_0^t f(s) ds + x_0$.
But I often heard of the initial value problem of ODE and dynamic system together. If the former is not an example of the latter, I wonder why they are mentioned together?
There is also a related question posted before here Construction of dynamical systems from ODEs with initial values.

For what number fields $K$ can we actually compute the residue of $\zeta_K(s)$ at the pole $s=1$ directly? Since the class number formula tells us that
$$\textrm{Res}_{s=1}\zeta_K(s)=\frac{2^r(2\pi)^s\textrm{reg}(K)h_K}{\# \mu(K)\sqrt{|d_K|}}$$
this doesn't seem terribly useful unless one can calculate everything except one element. The only examples that I've ever seen involve computing the residue, but I don't think that's too interesting as I would expect that the whole utility of the formula comes from computing the residue and then using whatever we know to deduce either the regulator, class number or discriminant.
The only other utility of the formula that I can come up with is if we have some relationship between the zeta-functions of some number fields. Then one could use the functional equation to compute relations between the regulators, class numbers etc. of these number fields. Picking e.g. an $S_3$ extension we find relationships between the zeta functions of the subextensions.
Could anyone elaborate on if this equation actually has any use in practical computations? Even references to papers where its used to compute something interesting would be appreciated.

Creating spaces that create…
I've just arrived at the offices of one of Montreal's most internationally recognized and awarded new media and entertainment studios.
It's across the street from a building that looks ready for demolition and in a warehouse where the only sign is huge and says: "Espace a louer" [space for rent].  I go up the steps, through the front door and into the 'lobby' – big word for the little space.  It takes a minute to find any indication of where the business is.  Once I do I climb the stairs and find myself in their reception slash kitchen slash dining slash coffee slash creating slash… space.
I'm greeted, very casually, by someone sitting behind a "reception" desk. Â A lot of distractions. I'm early so I take a seat on a long black leather couch and I look around.
White floors, white walls and white ceiling. Â But it's not antiseptic or cold. Â It's oddly warm and appealing. It's messy. Paper and tinfoil creations hang from the ceiling. Â People are constantly moving through the space – clients rolling their suitcases through on their way back to NYC or Los Vegas or LA; staff of various ages but mostly male and mostly young walking fast or zipping through on skateboards, or making themselves tea or coffee, chatting.
Then a guy arrives and starts playing around with something on a big touch screen.  All of a sudden an eyeball appears and is projected onto a huge round screen on the wall in front of me.  He plays around for a bit, but something's just not working.  A younger guy shows up and starts helpfully making suggestions. They experiment with different things together. Now it's clear that they are trying to get the huge full screen eyeball to rotate. I'm fascinated. He leaves. Then they are both gone. They both comes back with a more senior tech guy… Play around. Disappear so he can show him something…  This is creating. Â
The three of them are focused on the thing they are trying to create together.  Not each other.  No posturing. No ego. No competition – or at least not in this moment.  This is especially surprising because this is one of the most high testosterone geek environments I've ever been in except for one other; this one doesn't have acrobats. Â
Compare this experience to a recent visit I had to another corporate head office.  There, I find the same white walls and ceiling. This time natural wood floors. Red rather than black leather couch. Kitchens and nooks. Open office space even for the CEO. Spaces created for people to meet and exchange. And, by all accounts employees love it. Who wouldn't it's modern, clean, bright and beautiful. But, where is everybody?  And, what are they working on? Those that are there have there heads down in their space.  It's quiet.  Really, really quiet.
So what's going on? Is it that the work of most organizations is not about bringing into being but solving problems as an end in themselves? Is it that not all creating takes collaboration and  when there is no real aspiration to create together you can't fake it?Â
The thing is we're not thinking about it. Â Today, most leaders believe: Â
- Their businesses need to be more innovative.Â
- Their employees [all of them] need to be more creative and collaborative.
- They can magically create spaces that will lead to more and better creating and innovation like lighting a fuse that leads to an explosion.

Two leadership lessons from 'Gravity'
It's rare that Michael and I actually go to the movie theatre. Â But this past long weekend that's what we did. Â Having heard rave reviews about 'Gravity' it seemed the right thing to do on a rainy fall holiday Monday. Â So, off we went to see it in IMAX 3D. Â Wow! Â And, wow!
And in the midst of the wow communication, or the lack of it, plays a critical role in the plot. Â So, without giving anything away two lessons:
- When communication fails big – as in global failure of communication technology – it's bad. Â Really, really bad. Â And, we are vulnerable whether we're astronauts or communication professionals. Â You need a back up plan. Â And maybe another. Do you have yours?
- When communication technology fails, even in the high tech world of outer space exploration, you still need basic information. Â Does our hero reach for an iPad? Â No. She reaches for manuals – yes, three ring binders. Â Technical manuals with coloured covers that instantly tell you what they are for, coloured tabs for the different sections, simple images and little text. Do you have yours?
You might want to take a lesson from "Gravity" and prepare for anything.  Because when anything happens, 'flawless' communication is more important than ever. Â

"I am not a number!"
Well, it turns out you are. Â Lots and lots of numbers.
Numbers can be used to diminish and dehumanize. Survivors of the holocaust concentration camps living in Montreal bear the evidence of their experience; numbers tattooed on their inner arm.
As recently as 1996 when the last residential school in Canada closed, First Nations People were stripped of their names and given numbers. "I'm 31" was an opening line to a testimony I heard while attending the Truth and Reconciliation Commission hearings here in the spring. And this legacy lives on. "I'm from treaty 5, bordering on 6". No community name, just numbers.
Or, numbers can be used to celebrate and encourage – sports sweater numbers are so associated with particular players that they get retired [e.g. The Hab's Jean Beliveau's #4], being named "number 1" , milestone birthdays.
Or, numbers can just be the backdrop to our lives. I remember getting my Social Insurance Number. It was a right of passage. Now I could finally go out and get a real job. No more babysitting for me.
When I got that job one of the first things that happened was that I was assigned an employee number. Now I had all the rights and responsibilities of an employee.
Numbers are still an important part of my life: phone numbers, apartment numbers, passwords [OK numbers and letters], credit card numbers, health insurance numbers, invoice numbers, postal codes, GST/PST numbers, cheque numbers, bank card numbers. Lots and lots of numbers. Nothing special.

A series of transactions does not a relationship make
re·la·tion·ship Noun.  1. The way in which two or more concepts, objects, or people are connected, or the state of being connected.
trans·ac·tion   Noun. 1. An instance of buying or selling something, a business deal.  2. The action of conducting business.
In the world of branding, the holy grail is the customer relationship. But for most organizations that relationship falls short. Why? Well because it's not a relationship at all. Â At best it's a series of transactions. At worst it's a single transaction.
As long as the last transaction went well from the customer point of view they'll probably be back. Or, in the case or banks or telecoms, even if the transaction doesn't go well the cost of getting out of the 'relationship' is too high to move. I've actually consulted to an organization that had a strategy around inertia. Â Oh dear!
So, what's the difference? Â When does a transaction or a series of transactions turn into a relationship.
Well, for me, at least, it's when it's personal. Â And, by that I don't mean the overly friendly and creepy call with the aforementioned bank or telecom where they start calling you by your first name or remembering your birthday.
In marketing and internal communications in particular we act as if we can build trust and loyalty on a series of transactions. Â I guess if your selling a commodity or a simple product you could think that. There are some branded products I just love. Â It will take a lot for me to change. They are on the shelf where I shop, they cost about the same as the competition [or maybe even a little more] and they do what they are supposed to do every time.
But don't mistake that for a relationship. Â The first time I don't get what I expect I will leave and I won't look back. Your customers are the same.
Complex products and services are a little different. There will need to be a person-to-person interaction at some point in the customer experience – whether it's at point of purchase or some time later. And that's where the potential for relationship happens. And smart companies – like Apple – make sure those interactions are "genius".
Brand loyalty, can develop when when time after time you experience the brand through empathetic and effective [it must be both] professionals. But, even this is not a relationship to the brand. At best it's a relationship with your employee or a series of employees.
So, any of you who are out there trying to develop customer relationships with your Brand, you're missing something pretty fundamental.
Your customers, if they are building relationships, are building them with your employees.
You can't have one without the other.
The brands that forget this do so at there peril.

Culture + chemistry
What makes some environments platforms for personal and professional success? What makes other environments platforms for certain failure no matter how great the job is? Â The answer: Culture and chemistry.
In the past couple of years, I've heard story after story of clients hiring execs that end badly and execs making big career changes that end badly. I just read this piece by Daniel Rosensweig about his best career mistake that got me thinking.
Even the best job  description and pay and benefits package in the world aren't going to make up for a failure to find a match in culture and chemistry.  It's very personal.
Some people will thrive in a toxic culture with adequate chemistry.
Others will die.
It's what happens when executive search firms, hiring execs and candidates focus on matching the level, size, scope, role of the job and the pay check to the skills and experience.
On paper it all looks good, but once the candidate is on the job it unravels.
The job may or may not be the dream job. Â It just needs to be adequate. Â But if the culture and chemistry aren't right even the best job in the world is doomed to failure.
Don't underestimate the power of chemistry!

Building an ethical compass in your organization
The ethical compass. Â It's elusive. Â All to often organizations faced with moral and ethical issues get focused on compliance. We're pretty good at crafting codes of conduct and business conduct. Â It's big business…
We can learn from the past.  Did you know that Catherine the Great had a code of conduct for her court?
We can learn from each other.  Check out this comparison of codes of conduct for British Petroleum and the Canadian Armed Forces.
We communicate them and an the related policies and programs [whistleblower hotlines, amnesty programs, etc]. Â Why?
Well, it could be the discrepancy between the espoused behaviour and reality. It's got to be more than the "tone from the top".
- Sucky values suck! My take on a poll on employees' lack of trust in leadership.
- After 168 years what changed? A look at the events that led to the closing of News of the World.
- From the inside looking out. When the reality and the myth collide at Dell and Apple
Or,  it could be the failure to recognize that: "… the ethical pressures are the same in North America as they are in difficult regions in Latin and South America, North Africa and easter Europe." [see: Getting back to basics. Who? Why?]
Or… Â it could be, as a philosopher I heard a few years ago [and now can't find] said, that we're taking the focus off of where it should be – individual responsibility and values.
I was reminded of this today in an article about SNC-Lavalin's challenge in building back its reputation after a series of bribery and corruption charges. Â "The challenge is to ensure employees can respond positively to four questions:
- Is this what you're doing right for the company?
- Is it consistent with the company's core values?
- Is it both legal and ethical?
- Are you willing to be held accountable for your actions?"
What do you think? Â Should we be spending more of our time on developing understanding around these 4 questions than on communicating codes of conduct, policies, and procedures? Â Is this the ethical compass we've been searching for?

Labour day. It's not just the end of summer.
Labour Day; Â that last bitter sweet day of summer. Â On September 2, summer will officially be behind us even if it doesn't really end until September 22nd. Â
And for many of us  it's the beginning of a new year a hang over from getting back to school that first day after labour Day.  To me it feel like the beginning of a new work year.  And this may be closer than anything to the original reason for Labour Day. Â
"Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement, specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest…  The origins of Labour Day in Canada can be traced back to December 1872 when a parade was staged in support of the Toronto Typographical Union's strike for a 58-hour work-week."
On Monday, take a minute.  Think about workers around the world – blue or white collar – working 24/7/360 so that you and I can have the life we have.  And, on Tuesday, we'll all be back to work.

"Trouble at mill?"
I write a lot – Â well over 200 blog posts [here and elsewhere], regular posts on LinkedIn discussion groups and 1,000s of working papers and discussion pieces for clients – and I'm sometimes frustrated by the limits of the English language. Â How do you write plainly, crisply and still have the language reflect fresh thinking?
This week I was reminded that English is a living language. Constantly evolving. Â Just listen to Prince William outside the doors of St Mary's Hospital earlier this week and hear him say:
"I'll remind him of his tardiness when he's a bit older. I know how long you've all been sat here."
What? Â I couldn't believe my ears. Grammatically incorrect and charming colloquial English at it's absolute best, spoken by the future King of England.
I know this phrasing well thanks to my family in Yorkshire and favourite characters on Corrie.  And for decades if not centuries, it's been commonly used in the north of England. Unique. And, that's where it's stayed.  But, now it's been used publicly  by a key member of the English stiff upper lip class and heard around the world. Are we on the verge of hearing this in fashionable circles everywhere?  And from there to a neighbourhood near you.
English may have its limits, but it is a living language. Â Social media is increasing the pace of change. Â For someone who spends much of their life writing, that's a very exciting thing.

Building a brand experience is just not that complicated…
But, you do have to think about it. Â
Here's the text of an email I just sent to a well-known and respected restaurant in Old Montreal that obviously didn't think about it:
"Imagine booking a reservation weeks in advance. Imagine looking forward to spending your anniversary on a beautiful terrace and eating a fabulous meal with your husband.  Imagine waking to a picture perfect summer's day knowing you'll be having a special end to the day.  Imagine getting a call to tell you [actually it's worse than that. I booked the reservation. My husband got the call. It could have been a surprise. I'd told them it was our anniversary] …  Sorry you don't have a reservation and… it's your fault because you booked online and …we've had a wedding booked for months and… No real apology.  No offer of anything to compensate for ruining our anniversary plans."
I've had drinks on this terrace and a meal or two.  The service and food have always been impeccable.  But, in this one interaction they have erased all that. The restaurant has left us to try to find something at the last minute in a town where the nice terraces at good restaurants are booked way ahead.

Not all stakeholders are created equal. Now what?
- Partners would inform each other immediately – face-to-face or by text or by email – of the outcome.
- Employees directly involved on the pitch, in the office and in other offices, would also be informed as quickly as possible and ideally in a face-to-face meeting [conference call or Skype if necessary because of the schedules of the partners] with a chance for them to learn the outcome and discuss the implications for the team. Â This meeting would be relatively short.
- Other employees – depending on the size and nature of the news and it's implications – would either receive an e-mail [while the pitch team was in their meeting] inviting them to a small group meeting with their partner, or to gather with the pitch team for a celebration or mourning
- Peers and colleagues outside the office would be informed as appropriate after that
- The partners and pitch team would create opportunities for debriefing and learning within the days following the news.

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Marsalis, Branford
Tenor saxophonist Branford Marsalis quickly established himself as a leading voice on his instrument, with an uncommon tone and lyricism. Out of the gates with Art Blakey, Herbie Hancock, and Dizzy Gillespie, he has enjoyed crossover success in pop and hip-hop, and even as an actor, yet has always returned to his roots in jazz.
Branford Marsalis was born on August 26th, 1960 in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, a small town west of New Orleans. He was the eldest son of pianist and educator Ellis Marsalis Jr. Ellis and his wife Delores had five other children, several of whom went on to become jazz musicians. These include trumpeter Wynton, trombonist Delfeayo, and drummer Jason. Branford's other siblings include another brother, Ellis III, who is a poet and Mboya Kinyatta, who was born with autism. Branford's grandfather, Ellis Marsalis Senior, was a businessman and civil rights activist who passed away in September of 2004.
Growing up as the son of a well-known musician in New Orleans, Branford was constantly surrounded by music. Branford started out playing piano at the age of four and began playing alto saxophone and clarinet before settling on the tenor saxophone. Growing up and especially as a teenager, Branford was drawn the funky styles of bands like Earth, Wind and Fire and contemporary saxophonists like David Sanborn and Grover Washington, rather than the bebop favored by his father. He has stated that his introduction to the work of Charlie Parker happened when he was sixteen, when his father played a record for him. This kind of experience, combined with seeing his brother Wynton playing with drummer Art Blakey, began to open his eyes to the possibilities of jazz.
Branford studied music formally for a year at Southern University in Baton Rouge, then transferred to the Berklee College of Music in Boston. During the summer months of 1980, Marsalis toured Europe with an ensemble led by legendary jazz drummer Art Blakey. By the end of 1981, Marsalis had joined Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, alongside his brother Wynton on trumpet. He remained with Blakey for five months and played dates all across the United States. Some of these dates were recorded, including one from January of 1982 at San Francisco's Keystone Corner. The young Branford can be heard on songs such as "A La Mode." Marsalis also toured Japan with pianist Herbie Hancock in 1981.
Branford played with many different artists between 1982 and 1985. He was a full-time member of Wynton's group, played with Clark Terry's big band for a brief period of time, and recorded with vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson. Wynton released his self-titled debut album in 1981, which featured Branford on tenor, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass, and Tony Williams on drums. This album includes the memorable "Sister Cheryl," which was written by Williams.
Branford played on subsequent releases by Wynton, which included Think of One in 1983 and Black Codes (From the Underground), which featured the song "Chambers of Tain," an homage to drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts. Branford is also featured on trumpet Dizzy Gillespie's 1984 album New Faces. Joined by Kenny Kirkland on piano, they play on Dizzy's original composition "Tenor Song."
Branford released his debut album as a leader in 1984, Scenes in the City. In 1985, along with Kenny Kirkland and drummer Omar Hakim, Marsalis joined a new group being formed by the bassist and pop star Sting. The band showcased a variety of musical styles, and Branford's playing helped to enhance the overall sound of the group's amalgam of funk, r-'n-b, and rock. The jazz trio's two-year stint with Sting was documented in the film Bring on the Night.
Marsalis formed is own group around 1986, which included Jeff "Tain" Watts and Kenny Kirkland. Marsalis released several albums in the 1980s, which include Royal Garden Blues and Random Abstract. He also released his first album of classical music in 1986, called Romances for Saxophone. Marsalis also began branching out into acting. He appeared in the 1987 movie Throw Momma from the Train and in Spike Lee's 1988 movie School Daze.
In 1991, Marsalis released The Beautyful One Are Not Yet Born with his brother Delfeayo acting as producer. In 1992, Marsalis became the director of the Tonight Show band. Kenny Kirkland also briefly played in the group. Marsalis also continued to play with people outside of the jazz world including pop singer and pianist Bruce Hornsby and the Grateful Dead. Marsalis can be heard on the 1992 hit R&B single "I Love Your Smile" by Shanice, where he delivered a very expressive but short solo in the middle of the song.
In 1994, Marsalis formed a jazz and hip-hop group, Buckshot Lefonque, which explored the potential for interaction between the two styles. The group's debut album,Buckshot Lefonque,featured Marsalis' tenor and production by DJ Premier on such songs as "Breakfast at Denny's." The group released a second album in 1997, Music Evolution.
In 1995, Branford recorded an album with his father called Loved Ones for Columbia Records, which featured the plaintive Johnny Mercer song "Laura."
Marsalis continued to record and tour with his own group through the mid-1990s, but it was shaken up when his longtime collaborator Kenny Kirkland died of a heroin overdose in 1998. Kirkland was replaced by pianist Joey Calderazzo, and Marsalis dedicated his 1999 album, Requiem, to the pianist. In 2000, Marsalis received Grammy Award in 2000 for his album Contemporary Jazz, which explored complex time signatures and featured Marsalis's breakneck solos on songs like "Elysium."
In 2002, Branford formed his own music label, Marsalis Music. The label has released his albums Eternalin 2004 and Braggtown in 2006, as well as albums by drummer Jimmy Cobb and pianist Harry Connick Junior, with whom Branford toured to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. Marsalis has taught at Michigan State, San Francisco State, and North Carolina Central University, where he is currently on the faculty.

Middle School has 710 students in grades 6, 7 and
8. Currently we have 53 teachers. In each grade there
are two teams that consist of 4 teachers, 1 in each
of the following areas: Language Arts, Mathematics,
Science and Social Studies. For the 2008-2009 school
year, students are offered Encore classes as follows.

Each student is assigned a guidance
counselor, who will remain assigned to that student
throughout his or her middle school career. Our marking
terms are quarterly and parent conferences occur in
November, February and April. The school day begins
at 7:45 a.m. The late bell rings at 7:55 a.m. Students
must be seated in class by 7:55. Homework is given
regularly and it is very important that all homework
is completed. At the start of the school year students
are issued an agenda book. All assignments should
be written in the agenda book, and school rules and
information are listed at the beginning of the book.
All students also have a locker. Only school issued
locks may be used on our lockers.
Our parent volunteers are a valuable
resource to the Belmonte Community. The Parent Advisory
Board meets monthly. See the school calendar for dates
and times. Additionally, communication with parents
is sometimes made easy by use of the ConnectEd phone
system. This allows the principal to call all families
with general messages and important information.
Our vision statement is as follows:
"The Belmonte Saugus Middle School
will advance the intellectual, social, emotional and
physical development of all its students while servicing
each individual's immediate needs within an environment
that promotes success for all students. Technology,
hands-on activities, and interdisciplinary instruction
will enhance teaching and learning. Curriculum development
will be an ongoing process geared to the needs of
the children in accordance with state-mandated standards.
Faculty, students, families and the community will
be actively involved in the educational process to
create a safe, supportive environment where students
are motivated to earn and believe that success is
attainable. Everyone will honor and respect the difference
and uniqueness of each individual while developing
a sense of responsibility toward themselves, their
school community, and the community at large.
Belmonte Middle School will be a school where both
students an faculty come together as a community of
life-long learners. Students will learn how to learn.
They will leave middle school with the knowledge and
tools necessary to confidently meet the challenges
of high school and beyond."
