About the Book
"Marshall recalls Stephen King's ability to set a story in the world of the commonplace, then suddenly jolt it into a more hellish realm."<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
—New York Times
Bad things have always happened in Black Ridge, Washington—and Michael Marshall, the acclaimed, bestselling, Phillip K. Dick Award-winning author of The Intruders ("Scary brilliance" —Baltimore Sun) and Straw Men ("Brilliantly written and scary as hell" —Stephen King), lets readers experience all the exceptional nastiness. Marshall's Bad Things is an electrifying combination of psychological suspense, mystery, horror, and paranormal activity that no fan of ingenious, intelligent thrillers will want to miss.
A bad thing occurred three years ago. A little boy died for no discernable reason, shattering lawyer John Henderson's world. Today he's a different man, living a solitary, simple existence in an Oregon beach house—until the night he receives a short e-mail from a stranger:
I know what happened.
With just four words, Henderson is pulled back to Black Ridge, Washington, the one place he'd hoped never to see again. It seems that bad things have always happened in this small town of generations-old secrets—and the shadows here seem even darker now than when tragedy first drove John Henderson away. The deeper he digs for answers, the more danger he draws toward himself and his estranged, helpless family . . . and he's not the only one who's been called home.
And that's a very bad thing . . .
Educator and Librarian Resources
Critical Praise
"This spooky tale shows Marshall...has a knack not only for the frisson of dread but also the telling psychological insight." — Publishers Weekly on BAD THINGS
"A genuinely scary thriller with satisfyingly malevolent villains." — The Sun Herald (Sydney) on BAD THINGS
"Marshall builds up suspense slowly . . . Black Ridge – like the Maine towns populated by Stephen King's characters – is not a place you want to visit." — Booklist on BAD THINGS
"This is a psychological thriller guaranteed to keep you up at nights." — Arcadian Lifestyle
"Fast-moving, sinister and highly accomplished…This is ferocious story-telling of the highest order, with corkscrew twists and turns that make it deliciously scary as the secrets unfold." — Daily Mail (London) on BAD THINGS
"Michael Marshall is the new Stephen King, to the nth degree. He successfully complements Carol O'Connell's tormented characters for roller-coaster-like psychological twists and thrills....BAD THINGS deserves six stars." — www.BookReporter.com on BAD THINGS
"taut action and appealing characters" — San Francisco Chronicle

To-Study List for this Summer
By Ryan Kopf on May 09, 2009
Our open source university meetup probably won't be meeting through the summer (we may actually have one meeting if I can find enough people in town who can come), so I must ensure that I spend my summer wisely. This semester has been crammed-full with classes, work, projects, volunteerism, leadership, and more - so I hope to catch up on things I need to learn throughout the summer. Here's what I hope to do:
- Complete more of the learning modules from the Sun Academic Initiative
- Learn more about Java EE
- Setup a practice Glassfish server
- See if there's any Ruby on Rails-like framework that I like for Java (I've seen talk about things that are very similar... but they don't follow the easy-to-setup paradigm of Rails).
- Practice Ruby on Rails and finish some of my bigger projects.
Wish me luck, and 36-hour days!

Valdosta, GA - Valdosta State moved to 14-12 overall and 4-5 in the Gulf South Conference with a 3-1 victory over Alabama-Huntsville Friday night, 27-25, 25-17, 19-25, 25-19. The Blazers used a balanced effort with four players notching eight kills or more in the match.
The tone was set from the first game when Valdosta State went into extra points to get the win. After going down, 2-0, though, Alabama-Huntsville fought back for a 25-19 win in the third set before the Blazers finished off the Chargers with a win in the fifth set by the same score.
In the first set of the match, the Blazers were down early, 6-1, and then, 11-6. Once the Chargers reached 12 points, however, Valdosta State stormed back. Ashley Lala hit a kill to steal service and start the run, trailing 12-7. Lala went on a run of six serves with five ending in Alabama-Huntsville errors before Katie Onushko struck a kill for a point to make it 14-12 in favor of VSU.
Alabama-Huntsville earned the lead once more at 16-15, but four UAH errors, two kills from Tania Tauiliili and a block from Tauiliili and Onushko put Valdosta State ahead 22-17. The Blazers never looked back in the first set.
Valdosta State fell behind in the second set as well, 4-1, but did not take long to fight back and win the set with ease. The third set proved much tougher.
The Blazers were down early in the set, 14-4, and eventually 20-11. Valdosta State was able to close the gap to six before the end of the set, but it would not be enough to sweep the Chargers.
Valdosta State dominated in the fourth set to ensure the victory. The Blazers went up by as much as 16-8 and 20-11 on their way to a match clinching victory.
Chelsea Logan led the team in kills with 16 while Onushko and Brittany Smith added 11. Tauiliili pitched in eight. Lala gave out 43 assists and doubled up with 20 digs. Krista Bradford led the team in digs with 21. Onushko and Macy Markham combined for 27 digs. Tauiliili led Valdosta State's effort in blocks with seven block assists. Onushko had six and Destiny Berry finished with four to help Valdosta State gain a slight edge in blocking, 12.5 to 11.
Jessica Ruple led Alabama-Huntsville in kills with 13 while Kelly Wilson gave out 29 assists. Libero Kaeli McCaghren led the team in digs with 21 and Carrie Brown tallied two solo blocks and four block assists in the match.
The Blazers will try to make it a winning streak against West Alabama at 2 p.m. Saturday in The Complex. Valdosta State will also be honoring its seniors before the match.

Santa Claus arrived in Colchester Saturday night astride a brightly decorated fire tanker, helping to usher in a new era for the town's annual holiday kick-off as a large crowd watched the unveiling of a brand new Christmas tree downtown.
"I'm so excited. Colchester history is being made tonight," said Anita Pizzutiello, a town recreation supervisor who emceed the event.
About 15 years ago, Boy Scouts planted a blue spruce on the back end of the town green, where it sat until earlier this week. City workers carefully transplanted it after decking it out with more than 1,500 lights ahead of its illumination on Saturday.
The 30-foot tall evergreen replaces a beloved tree that presided over Colchester's yuletide celebrations for more than 50 years.
"We've been wanting this for years, and now it's finally here. A lot of people and organizations helped to make this happen," Pizzutiello said.
A large bonfire, free hot chocolate, Christmas music and a lit hula hoop display were all part of Saturday's festivities.
The youth choir from St. Andrew Church offered a live performance, and officials from the town's police department and Lions Club used the event to replenish the Colchester Food Bank and secure new, unwrapped toys that will be given to needy youths.
And in a boost to the local economy, several business kept special business hours to take advantage of the strong attendance. About 500 people turned out to welcome Santa and watch the tree-lighting.
For the hordes of children in attendance, the tree's significance was second to their enthusiasm for St. Nick, who was peppered with toy requests even before he stepped off the Colchester-Hayward Volunteer Fire Company's truck and toward a gazebo at the green's center.
"Santa, hi! I need to tell you something!" children shouted as he made the short walk.
Once seated, he was quickly greeted by 5-year-old Katie Brennan of Colchester.
"I want a make-up mirror and a doll," Katie said.
Haley Cone, 5, of Amston, had a similar request.
"I want a Barbie playhouse and make-up set for her because she's pretty," Haley said.

"Scents and Subtle Sounds" was probably the highlight of the first set for me. After the distinctly Trey orchestration in the beginning, the appropriately subtle, melodious jam began, climbing to heights of tender beauty. It was my first time hearing it, and I was already in the love with the song. This one is nothing too out of the ordinary compared to other versions, but still great. Later in the summer, I had the privilege of witnessing the epic Camden "Scents", currently the best to date.
It was great hearing "Round Room". Quirky but catchy, like much of Mike's material. Had a trippy outro jam that was appreciated, but a little aimless. I'd like to see it jammed out sometime. "Halley's" was fun, as always, but nothing too noteworthy here. The jam never really developed, but it was pleasant nonetheless. Mike's electronic bagpipes were a surprise; I've never seen that instrument before.
My Dad, who's very into sunsets, turned to me and said "great choice for sunset" when they started "YEM" up. As the sky was lit up with purple, pink and red hues of the sun setting behind the canyon, I heartily agreed with him. The composed "YEM" segment was a perfect companion to the natural show unfolding before us. The jam, though, never really got off the ground. Trey noodled around with some nice themes - he even did a little strut back and forth on stage - -but the jam kind of petered out before anything really got going. It was notably lacking the obligatory peak of the post-Hiatus "YEM" routine. I remember wanting more, but still being happy. Hard to be displeased with "YEM", after all.
Just as the stars appeared overhead, Trey walked out and tore into
"Llama". This is generally a good sign to open a set, and the band played with what seemed like even more power than usual. I recall being literally pushed backwards by the force emanating from the stage. It was over in the same blur that it had begun, and we headed into "Wolfman's".
This tread along the relatively conservative lines of most pre-Hiatus versions (see 7/31/03 and especially 12/1/03 for newfound exceptions in which the jam turns into a driving rock powerhouse). The jam got mildly funky, but it was essentially directionless. It petered out with a smooth segue into "Jesus Just Left Chicago".
This is the first since the Hiatus, and a nice version too. As soon as it started, I decided that my spot on the ground was potentially not as enjoyable a place to watch as the lawn hill sloping up behind me, so Faris and I decided to make a quick run to the top of the hill to see if it was better. It was. Towering high above the stage, the top of the hill put us in a perfect position to observe Chris's handiwork in all its glory. And the sound improved drastically, too. If you go to the Gorge, forget trying to get one of the one hundred or so seats, or cramming onto the floor, just head up to the hill and relax. Anyway, the "Jesus Left Chicago" went through its traditional movements, with some nice soloing from Trey and Page, but nothing too out of the ordinary (it was no 11/17/97). But I had an exceedingly pleasant time listening to this mellow, swaggering tune.
Then, "Seven Below". It. This was it. The highlight of both shows. A jarring masterpiece of post-Hiatus jamming, this space rock behemoth crushed any fears that post-Hiatus Phish improv could not reach the same lofty heights of earlier years. Moreover, this powerhouse showed the new Phish improvisation machine smoothly molding a groundbreaking, astoundingly creative, and altogether thrilling jam. This, folks, was post-Hiatus Phish at its best: a pinch of Fall `95, a dash of `99, some hard rock, a good measure of flowing space, and pulsating energy to spare. It felt fresh and new, even though an evolution from pre-Hiatus jams. Here we go.
There was a standard intro segment, with the notes hit perfectly. We get to the traditional spot of more open space, and Trey starts his pleasant "Seven Below" noodling regime, returning to variations of the main theme intermittently. Mike begins laying down a driving groove, it circles around and moves up and down, propelling the jam forward. Trey and Page are locked in, playfully bouncing off each other. Then Trey takes it up a notch, playing quicker and then backs off with several sustained melodious notes, Page laying out the perfect accompaniment. Then Trey hits a groove, repeats, repeats, repeats, morphs, repeats, repeats, compacts, then begins anew. Building upon itself higher and higher, Page banging out trying to keep up, running up and down the board, then Fishman nails the exclamation as Trey's licks build to a mini-climax. Trey backs off, retreating to the swirling space engulfing the band.
Now Trey begins a more distorted, space playing, locked in with Fishman who is laying down a steady beat amidst the whirlwind. Fishman gets quieter and quieter, Trey plays subtle riffs. Fishman, unable to resist, bursts back into the mix, but then hangs back, returning to his basic guiding beat. Trey continues playing the space noodling, Page begins making thick, dark synthesizer sounds, further deepening the already waist deep space groove, now letting the sound just hang there and vibrate at the core of the jam. Trey begins playing very soft, slow notes, merging with the beautiful "Hood"-like notes Page is now playing over dark space. And here we are. Deep space. Trey's playing gets progressively darker. We pass Mars, and are now floating in a black expanse, as stars hang silently and comets pass by.
Then BAM! HOLY SHIT FISHMAN! Fishman starts banging out an intense rock tempo beat and the Phish spaceship, drifting along the edge of a black hole, suddenly propels into light speed. The whole tenor of the jam changes. Phish is now locked into a much quicker rockish groove, Trey has begun quick, powerful soloing, soaring higher and higher. Mike lays down the driving bass, moving quickly toward a rock explosion. Trey begins tearing up his guitar, playing incendiary rhythm. Fishman bangs his cymbal faster and faster. Trey and Fishman are running, sprinting now, adding fuel to an impending explosion... here we go, here we GO! HOLD ON!
TREY WAILS! Fishman bangs his cymbals with infectious intensity, Trey hangs back, then EXLODES! Oh my LORD! Mike is hitting power chords! Out of space, back to earth, in the fucking Albert Hall with Jimmy Page grinning with approval. Then suddenly, as Trey is hit in the head with a glowstick by some idiot in the audience, the brake is hit, the ship veers to a screeching, grinding halt, almost careening out of control, and faintly, in seconds flat, the "Seven Below" chorus emerges out of the chaos. And we're back where we started. Like getting off a ride.
The audience and band need a minute to recover from the trance. I remember needing a few minutes to get my mouth shut, after it had hung open in awe for what seemed like hours. I will always remember dancing above the Gorge during that journey. After a minute or two to regain composure, we head into a mellow, soothing "Harry Hood".
This "Hood" was much more relaxed and chilled than most; it never really reached a peak, but just hung back, providing the beauty and calm after the raging storm. Perfect. "Chalk Dust" was standard and rocking, to get everyone dancing as Phish wound up another voyage. "First Tube" was flawless. Incredible energy and precision.
We left the show with that special mix of giddy excitement, wonder, and appreciation which only the great performances can inspire. A special night.
Overall, although the performances were mostly average, the special moments were extraordinary enough to make up for all the less inspired parts. If you're in the continental United States the next time Phish plays the Gorge"....be there.

By Stephanie Hammon
BERKELEY -- After losing six of 10 games to start the season, the Berkeley High girls basketball team's run of dominance looked just about over.
The Yellowjackets began with only two experienced varsity players -- senior captain Rachel Howard and junior forward Desire Finnie. Practices focused on the fundamentals rather than strategy.
"Expectations were totally different," coach Cheryl Draper said.
But Draper didn't accept that this would simply be a rebuilding year. Her team steadily improved, and by March, the Yellowjackets were playing their best basketball.
They entered the Division I Northern California regional playoffs as the 12th seed but won four straight games to make the state final. It was the fourth time since 2008 that the Yellowjackets played for the Division I state title under Draper, but she says this one was particularly special because of how far the team needed to go to get there.
"This season meant a lot to me because I really believed I could develop them," Draper said. "I saw something in the 12 girls I had. ... This season was not as much coaching strategy or plays, it was more teaching the (basic) skills and fundamentals."
Draper, who has been with the program since 2000, has been named the Bay Area News Group East Bay Coach of the Year in girls basketball for guiding the Yellowjackets on their improbable playoff run. She did it with just one assistant for most of the year, too.
The postseason surge almost didn't happen, though. The Yellowjackets took a lopsided loss to Heritage in the North Coast Section Division I semifinals, ending their bid for a fourth straight section title, and nearly gave up on their season.
The day after the NorCal brackets were released, only six players showed up for practice. The others were still hurting from the semifinal loss.
Draper had the remaining players get on the phone with their no-show teammates. Soon, everyone was there and the team had turned the loss to Heritage into motivation.
"I told them, if we're going to do this, then we are going to do this right," Draper said. "Once we started practice, in five minutes the energy level was up and the kids had a different attitude and mentality."
Though the season ended with a 46-28 loss to Long Beach Poly in the state title game, Draper called this year one of the most satisfying of her six seasons as Berkeley's head coach.

STOCKTON – Two people were shot in separate incidents in the past 24 hours and treated at area hospitals for nonlife-threatening injuries, the Stockton police reported.
In the first incident, a 20-year-old man told officers he was standing outside on the 500 block of East Oak Street around 5:30 p.m. Sunday when a suspect unknown to him walked up with a shotgun and shot him. He managed to get back to an apartment where officers found him.
In the second incident, a 24-year-old woman was walking on the 1100 block of North Madison Street at 4:08 this morning when she heard several gunshots. At least one of them struck her, but she could not provide any suspect information to responding officers.

Charming! ;) [Twitter, while it lasts]
UPDATE: After a long, long beat, the company removed the tweet and wrote the following in a series of Twitter messages:
We apologise for our misunderstanding about Aurora. We didn't check what the trend was about hence the confusion, again we do apologise. We are incredibly sorry for our tweet about Aurora - Our PR is NOT US based and had not checked the reason for the trend, at that time our social media was totally UNAWARE of the situation and simply thought it was another trending topic - we have removed the very insensitive tweet and will of course take more care in future to look into what we say in our tweets. Again we do apologise for any offense cause this was not intentional & will not occur again. Our most sincere apologies for both the tweet and situation.

My birthday is 11th June.
Hello, I'm Holly, I try to keep everybody organised and I love helping people out. I really like teaching new skills to the Go!Go!Go! guys whenever I can. My friends say I'm an 'explosion' of good ideas and I have a backpack full of really useful items. I love making things, especially my own clothes and accessories! I'm particularly fond of polka dots and buttons :) And I really like trying out new recipe ideas in the kitchen too!
My birthday is 5th November (Guy Fawkes' Day)
Mr Baffled
Hello there, I'm Mr. Baffled, I live on the islands of Baffadopolis with the other Go!Go!Go! guys and the Fluffalope, my trusty assistant! I spend my time trying to put odd things to good use and occasionally I manage to succeed! My most favourite ever creation is the Bumblebug, the cool ship that the guys use to travel around in. I'm really quite proud of that :) I'm always full of questions. It's all the stuff that probably isn't a problem to most people, but to me it's completely baffling. Thankfully the Go!Go!Go! guys help me out.
My birthday is… oh, I can't remember!
Hello, I'm Fluffalope! The Go!Go!Go! guys adopted me a long time ago when they caught me in Gemma's bedroom looking for socks. I LOVE socks… I eat nothing else and I never get full up. So, if you've ever left an odd sock lying around, chances are I'll have sniffed it out and eaten it! I now live with Mr. Baffled and try to help him with his work, which is quite a tough job because I don't think he really knows what his work is! He's very kind though and gives me plenty of socks to eat. Yum, yum!
My day of adoption is the soxth of Soxtober.
THE GO!GO!GO! SHOW is an all-new family pop musical experience featuring five fantastic new stars of stage, screen and pop. There are brand new pop songs, catchy, easy-to-learn dance moves, plenty of audience interaction and loads of laughs. Gemma, Carl, Jade, Steve and Holly are joined by the permanently confused Mr. Baffled and his trusty sidekick, the Fluffalope (who lives entirely on a diet of socks!).
They all live on the islands of Baffadopolis in an old lighthouse near Holiday Bay. They love exploring and they like to help to solve the problems that Mr. Baffled tells them about… or creates himself! Most of all they love singing and dancing and they have a song for pretty much any occasion, whether it's WAKE UP SMILING in the mornings, HEY THERE SLEEPY HEAD for night time or CHOICES for lunch! You can catch them singing and dancing here on Nick Jr. and on tour around the UK later this year. Come on! What are you waiting for? READY? STEADY? GO!GO!GO!
Go ahead and watch Go!Go!Go! videos and create with Go!Go!Go!.

"Revolution" Ends, "TMNT/Batman:TAS" Begins in IDW's November 2016 Solicitations
Comic Books
Over the last month, I embarked on a mission to find some great new comic books aimed very specifically at children (but still engaging for my adult self). The books I chose were Greg Ruth's The Lost Boy, Gene Luen Yang's Boxers & Saints, Paul Pope's Battling Boy, Steve Niles and Dave Wachter's Breath of Bones: A Tale of the Golem, and the ongoing anthology Cartozia Tales. I wanted to find works which would be effective at entertaining both young children and adults (no small feat), drawing in a young audience to enjoy the medium, without alienating existing readers. While all of the books I chose do function very effectively as all-ages books, there is absolutely nothing childish about them, these are great comic books by any standard. Continue Reading »

Per Eriksson
What is your current position in the Volvo Group?
I have several assignments at the moment, but the main task is as a Platform Geometrical Architect within Powertrain Engineering at Volvo Group Trucks Technology. I perform virtual verification and make sure that we are following the platform strategy of complete powertrain installations for the Volvo Heavy Duty Platform.
Why did you choose Volvo Group as an employer?
I have always been interested in commercial vehicle development and during my earlier assignment as a consultant I have had the opportunity to work with Volvo Group. Then when my manager at Volvo told me that there was an opening as a Platform Geometrical Architect I did not hesitate to apply for that job.
To be part of Volvo and contribute in developing one of the best products on the market is really inspiring.
How has your career been this far?
When I first started working at Volvo Group I was part of smaller projects and since then I have been working both with short time assignments and in large global projects. I have also had the opportunity to be deputy group manager at Systems Integration & Geometrical Architecture, where I am located as a Platform Architect.
Do you get any professional or personal coaching from the Volvo Group?
There is an internal mentorship program within Volvo and I and my manager have had a conversation regarding this. On the other hand I do have a very good network within the complete Volvo Group organization I feel that I always have someone to discuss my career and future with.
Have you been involved in any global projects in the Volvo Group?
Since I am working with the platform strategy and commonality for the complete heavy duty engine platform, almost all of my projects are global. This is really interesting since in my day to day work I am communicating with people all over the world, from Japan in the east to my colleagues in Americas in the west. One of the biggest challenges is to take care of the multicultural benefits that we have within the complete organization.
If you were to recommend Volvo Group as an employer to a friend, what would you put forward?
Within Volvo Group there are lot of competence within all technology areas and many good coworkers. You will be able to contribute on all levels, both social and professional. Within Volvo you are appreciated for your work and social skills.

Gothenburg, Sweden
How would you describe your, so far, best experience from being an employee of the Volvo Group?
One of my best experiences was when I was a demo driver for the launch of our new truck range and met a lot of customers for a test drive. It was rewarding to meet the end customer and see the satisfaction in his/her eyes when they took place in the driver seat and took off in the new truck that we have worked with for several years. That was definitely one of the most satisfying moments in my career at Volvo, so far.
What do you do when off work?
I have two children at home and try to spend as much time as possible with them. We are spending lot of our time outdoors especially on the sea with our boat. I also enjoy all kinds of physical activities and try to keep myself in shape with some trail-running and floor ball.
What are your goals, plans and hopes for the future?
My goal is to work with people and personal development in the future. I believe in Volvo and our products but we will never be able to put state of the art products to the market without devoted and competent employees. That is something I would like to be part of!

This show was part of the "1993 Winter/Spring Tour."
This was my first Phish show: I was a virgin in this culture and by the end of the night I would be hooked for life. It was the spring 1993 tour closer and I couldnt have asked for a better show. One of my favorites, Chalk Dust, opened up the gig and set the twenty-five hundred-plus crowd dancin'. They played a variety of classics right after, including Guelah, Rift, Mound, and Stash, but this was not your normal Stash. This version started off quite energetically and continued to get even better due to Trey and Fishmans timely playing. Then they slowed down the jam a bit and started singing the ole Kung chant. Trey and Mike started singing into the microphone a bit as the ending riff came back to complete the Stash-> Kung->Stash sandwich. Glide was next, which is now considered somewhat of a rarity. Then Trey pulled out his Martin acoustic to play the intro to My Friend, My Friend, which included great drum work from Fishman. After that they got the crowd hopping again with Reba, then a very rare Duke Ellington cover called Satin Doll, which they played for the whole crew. Trey actually named them all, prior to closing out a great first set with Cavern.
The second set had a few treats to say the least. One of my favorites at the time (and now) opened the second set, David Bowie. The intro had a couple of secret language cues, the Simpsons signal as well as the sing a random note signal. Then out of nowhere the whole band starts jamming on Jessica by the Allmans! It never really took off completely but it was clear that the band was having some fun. This Bowie goes through a very hypnotic and heavy hard-rock jam to start things off, before it lightens up and fades melodiously into Have Mercy and then back into David Bowie, completing another fantastic segue sandwich!
A couple of delights came after including an acoustic intro to Horse, a great Its Ice and Squirming Coil. Then, just as the Coil solo ended, the band started to take off in a random jam that got everyone grooving for the Big Balls to come out, as the jam segued in to Big Ball Jam.
The crowd was quite adept at getting the three shots, and as they finished the BBJ Trey broke into Mikes Song. In my opinion this is a legendary Mikes Song. The energy that poured out of this Mikes was uncanny. Page was happy to be using his new Hammond organ, as was evident from his inspired playing in this Mikes. In the midst of it all, Trey led his three comrades into the old Robert Johnson (more recently Cream/Clapton) cover, Crossroads. It was the first time they ever played this one, and they did a pretty good job of it. This segued back into Mikes, thus completing the third segue sandwich of the night, and the rest of the Groove (Hydrogen and Weekapaug) followed. The Weekapaug was followed by Amazing Grace, which then led right into an Amazing Grace Jam, with the band playing Grace with instrumental accompaniment and thanking the crowd for supporting them and for coming to this, the tour closer. The encore, AC/DC Bag, was simple but left everyone with a smile on their face. It had only recently come out of hibernation earlier that spring in Atlanta. Although this was my first show, it still remains one of my favorites and a classic Phish performance that all should hear.
The show was awesome for me personally even tho I remember the acoustics being pretty crappy they figured it out after a couple of songs. Since I had just gotten into PH!SH I didn't know any of the songs but really liked what I had heard and then crossroads was played. I knew that and it was among the first of my many epiphanies about PH!SH. Yes, they may play cover tunes but they make them their own and almost always improve on the org song. The AC/DC encore became my favorite live song till I heard Sanity a few years later.
After the show, the friend of the friend wasn't very happy when we arrived on his doorstep with six people. After some commerce between us, he relented and I slept on a strip of carpet in the kitchen. Good times.
The setlist notes do not do justice to this version of David Bowie: You must hear this performance. This show is certainly a worthy Live Phish release, and Kevin Shapiro has also featured the versions of Coil->Jam and Mike's Groove->Amazing Grace on FTA shows.
A rocking Chalk Dust Torture sets the tone for the night and is very well played, with Trey's solo peaking in all the right ways. From here we move to a strong Guelah Papyrus and onto Rift, a lethal combo that the band opened with quite often those days. From here we move to Mound, a tune that is still growing on me. An average version here, but the boys are clearly building steam and are in exceptional form.
One of my all time favorite versions of Stash is next. The composed section is nailed and the jam takes a menacing turn soon after. Trey sounds incredible here as the tension builds, Fish keeps excellent time with his hi-hat and Page slams on his Piano in perfect rhythm. Trey's wails around 8:25 are everything I love about Stash. Peaking soon after in incredible form (10:08 is just insane), the music descends and soon we smoothly segue into Kung, seemingly out of nowhere. Feedback echoes throughout and soon we EXPLODE from this exceptional Kung and back into Stash, which ends with Trey melting what's left of your face and leaving no loose ends untied. Absolutely exceptional playing from everyone here.
We come down with Glide, which is played well. My Friend, My Friend is also strong, and takes us into another highlight, Reba. Again, the composed sections are handled with care and the jam emerges in a bouncy, groovy form. Trey's playing dances around Fish and Mike's rhythms and Page plays delicately but with purpose. Things soon get very quiet, and it's the Page and Trey show. Trey finds this neat little riff that is actually quite beautiful. The crowd claps along to this repetitive but powerful series of notes and the jam begins to escalate from there. He plays a very similar, but slightly more sinister, version of that riff as the music builds and around 9:50 or so we have liftoff. The peak is astonishing, which is extra impressive since this Reba is relatively short (11:30 if you subtract the whistling ending). Fantastic Reba with whistling taboot. One of my favorites.
Trey thanks the crew and invites the crowd to do some 'traditional dancing' as Page leads Satin Doll, which is very nice, even without the novelty of it being the last ever played. Cavern is a nice way to end this great first set.
On to set two, David Bowie opener. Almost enough said, but I have to mention the brief but very fun Jessica jam in the intro. A little secret language and off we go. A very energetic Bowie soon slows to a snail's pace as Trey finds a seriously heavy riff and repeats it over and over, with the rest of the boys following suit. Like a train leaving the station it slowly builds from a crawl to a dead sprint. When it's really getting fast everyone yells and moans to the music, which adds quite a bit. Soon Trey's above the clouds shredding and the music turns bouncy, descending into Have Mercy. The segues are on point tonight. It's played fine and we return to Bowie (at warp speed) and Trey repeats a long whine over and over before entering the outro segment. Solid Bowie but personally I don't believe it to be must-hear or one of the all-time greats (see: 6-18-94, 7-30-97).
Acoustic Horse is played perfectly and for a long while (I believe this is the longest Horse to date). Silent is pretty average but I actually like its placement here. Ice is next, a song I'm always happy to hear. The jam sounds similar rhythmically to the main theme of the song but Page really sounds great. Check out the descending notes at 5:23. My absolute favorite version of Coil follows, and features a stunning, extended Page solo and a killer blues jam tacked on near the end. It's a bit of a preview of the Crossroads debut to appear later on. Hear this Coil -> Jam at all costs.
The big balls come out next and Trey starts to play one of my favorite Mike's Grooves. Vocals are strong here and we drop into the jam forcefully, with Mike's bass seriously digging deep and Page teasing some organ lines. Trey joins and at 4:08 things get dirty before we settle swiftly into the Mike's Song outro. But things are different this time, with Page laying down some mind-numbing organ and Trey repeating one hell of a sweet riff. My words aren't really doing this justice. Mike plays the bassline to Crossroads and the band takes its time with the segue, something I miss about the old days. A few timing issues don't mar this killer combo. The first solo melts face and the second little jam segment fades into a rhythmic platform for Page to show off, and he does. Really hot stuff for a debut. A return to the Mike's outro, and a nice but standard run through Hydrogen and Weekapaug complete this sweet Groove.
Amazing Grace looks like the closer, but the band picks up their instruments again and slays the crowd one last time with a Weekapaug-esque Amazing Grace jam. Heady stuff, another highlight on this night of highlights. The lone encore is Bag, which is actually exceptional. I really enjoy this short, but sweet, version.
One hell of a bid farewell, this tour finale is everything I've grown to love about early 90's Phish, it's all here. Serious improvisation is backed by humor and fun, and the creativity flows from one note to the next. Get this show.
Reading that one comment that this show doesn't flow with you doesn't not make it good. Torture > Guelah Papyrus > Rift seals the deal. How do those people fee about Set 2?
Guitarists who hear this go nuts.
These show are IT.
I'm digging right in. Crossroads, My Friend, My Friend, Bowie.
Chalk Dust opens up the show in a rocking fashion and was well played and so was Guelah. Rift is still loose in the timing from Fishman; they are not locked in yet. Mound also had some problems with Fishs drumming and was just ok to me. Stash had some rough spots from Mike and Trey, but had a good jam in the middle, then inexplicably it goes into KUNG! Not sure why, but who cares? Glide was pretty good. My Friend had some off spots in the intro, but the song itself was good. Reba was also good for the most part, no real problems along the way. Trey thanks the crew then Page leads them through the last performance of Satin Doll. Cavern makes for a good closer to this average first set.
Ok, now it seems a few people here think this Bowie is special, but I thought it kind of sucked. First of all, I wouldnt call it a Jessica jam; its just a lot of teasing mostly by Page. There was a lot of screwing around and signals and the actual Bowie song was sloppy, disjointed and all over the place. I believe the proof is in the Have Mercy part, which I feel the band only plays when they screw up. Of course thats just my opinion. Trey picks up the acoustic again for an ok Horse. Silent was ok, but had some rough spots and I think I even heard bad notes from Page! Ice was also a bit off from Treys part and the middle jam was weird. Coil also suffered from bad notes and sloppiness and the ending jam was kind of weird. Then the Balls come out Mikes was good and rocking, then the jam turned into Crossroads, after last nights Harpua had a rough version of it. Hydrogen was ok, and then the top of Weekapaug got cut off from an old edit of some sort. Then the jam turns into a ridiculous Amazing Grace jam? The whole thing was sloppy and not that much fun to hear. I guess you had to be there right? Anyway, it was a weird way to close up the tour for my ears.
AC/DC Bag is the lone encore tonight and was pretty well played.
Sorry folks, but to me there is no way in hell that this is a four star show. I wish I could say better things about this one, but I cant

VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Playoff elimination is never easy to accept. But, for the Sharks, the bizarre finish to the Western Conference finals here in 2011 may have been the most difficult of their 15 postseason departures.
Yet as San Jose opens its latest drive for the Stanley Cup on Wednesday night at Rogers Arena against the Vancouver Canucks, goaltender Antti Niemi can almost embrace the double-overtime moment when a puck seemed to appear out of nowhere on defenseman Kevin Bieksa's stick, then hit the twine at the back of the San Jose net an instant later.
"It sucked at the time, but now it's fine," Niemi said. "And I think it's going to turn. In the long run, the bounces are going to even out."
The sixth-seeded Sharks will need to be rely on more than hockey karma if they are to get their revenge on the third-seeded Canucks. But if one of the most bitter moments in franchise history gets a share of the credit, so be it.
The Sharks began the night of May 24, 2011, trailing the series 3-1, and were within 14 seconds of a regulation win when Ryan Kesler scored for Vancouver to send the game into overtime. One extra 20-minute period settled nothing, and 10 minutes into the second, the sequence began.
Standing about 10 feet inside the blue line, Canucks defenseman Alexander Edler sent the puck down the right sideboards as Logan Couture closed in on him. Players on both teams headed behind the goal line, then stopped in confusion. Joe Pavelski pointed upward with his stick as if to indicate the puck went into the netting.
It didn't. Instead it hit a stanchion and rolled directly to Bieksa, whose 60-foot slap shot reached the net before Niemi fully realized what was happening.
"I think I was one of the few to see where the puck was the entire time," Couture said. "It was just a weird play and a tough game to lose because we outplayed them in that one."
Not everybody on the ice Wednesday night shares that memory. Only eight current Sharks played in that game; Vancouver has undergone less turnover as 16 of its players were in the lineup then.
And not everybody wants to go back to that night.
"There's no need to," Pavelski said. "It hadn't crossed my mind."
But Couture said he recently took the time to look up the Bieksa goal. Still, he and other players said that simply losing to Vancouver was more of the added incentive going forward than the freak goal that did them in.
"I don't think about the way we lost as much as them taking us out," defenseman Dan Boyle said. "That's what I remember more than the fluky goal. I remember that St. Louis took us out last year and they took us out the year before. I remember that."
Couture said that over the past two summers, he has reflected on both of San Jose's trips to the Western Conference finals, trying to figure out what could have gone differently, "but that's just the way hockey players think in general."
"I mean," he continued, "you get so far and you get to the conference finals. Both those years, I still think about the teams we had. It was just a weird play and a tough game to lose because we outplayed them in that one."
Predictably, the Canucks looked at it differently Tuesday.
"We don't look at that series where we think we were lucky," Canucks captain Henrik Sedin said after his team's morning practice. "We played some good hockey against a really good team and we did a lot of really good things in that series. Unfortunately for them, that's what happens sometimes."
But, he added, "we don't look back and think that gave us the series. We played some good hockey."

ScaleDB is proud to announce the introduction of a database that
takes data storage to a new level, and a new altitude. ScaleDB's
patent pending "molecular-flipping technology" enables low energy
molecular flipping that changes selected water molecules from H20
to HOH, representing positive and negative states that mimic the
storage mechanism used on hard drive disks.
"Because we act at the molecular level, we achieve massive storage density with minimal energy consumption, which is critical in today's data centers, where energy consumption is the primary cost," said Mike Hogan, ScaleDB CEO. "A single thimble of water vapor …

Frank and Katrina Basile Theater, History Center
7:30 p.m.
The Charm, the Harm and the Daring of Dillinger is a suspense-filled story tracing the life of a run-of-the-mill boy who inadvertently received a world-class criminal education that propelled him into a criminal career. In following John Dillinger from boredom to desperation to sheer audacity, the story chronicles the infamous trickster who outwitted law enforcement in a 14-month wild chase in and around the state of Indiana.
Sharing Hoosier History Through Stories is a partnership between IHS and Storytelling Arts of Indiana to bring Indiana history alive in new and fresh ways. This year's storyteller, Sally Perkins, began telling stories as a volunteer at Riley Children's hospital. Through Storytelling Arts of Indiana, she was awarded the Frank Basile Emerging Stories Fellowship in 2009.

"I'm Not Leaving" - A Lecture and Discussion with Carl Wilkens, Founder of World Outside My Shoes
Carl Wilkens, founder of World Outside My Shoes will deliver a talk entitled "I'm Not Leaving."
Through the telling of his own experiences, Wilkens puts a human "face" on genocide, showing us that the perpetrators, victims, and resistors will not soon be forgotten, and teaching participants how one person really can make a difference. His story reminds us of the profound connection between history and the moral choices we face each day. It also arms us with new insights in the fight against genocide along with tools and inspiration for re-evaluating the relationships we are part of every day.
Wilkens is the author of I'm Not Leaving and founder of World Outside My Shoes, a non-profit educational and professional development organization committed to inspiring and equipping people to enter the world of "The Other" which may be under our own roof or on the other side of the globe.
He was featured in Frontline's"Ghosts of Rwanda" and "The Few Who Stayed: Defying Genocide," an American Radio Works documentary which aired on National Public Radio. His humanitarian work has been recognized with several awards including the Dignitas Humana Award from Saint John's School of Theology Seminary and a 2005 Medal of Valor from the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
Co-sponsored by the History Department, the Graduate Program in International Affairs at The New School for Public Engagement, and Global Studies.

text: The study of stars and planets has always intrigued me. I do most of my thinking and pondering when sitting outside. What is up there? Who is out there? And how can I learn more? These questions swarm around in my head constantly. To find answers to these questions, I need to research the job of an astronomer and what is needed to become this desired profession. Not only am I interested in the astronomer, but the astronomer who is able to write the information down for all to read. Therefore a second occupation should be researched, that of an author or writer.<>>The astronomer/writer would have various duties throughout their day. The astronomer would observe the skies through recording devices unlike the astronomers of old. The picture of astronomers gazing through a telescope is unfortunately outdated. They at present spend very little time observing and most of their time is spent analyzing their observations. After hours and hours of collecting data they are ready to put the information on paper. Writing this information, either for a scientific magazine or a science textbook is grueling and time consuming work.<>>In both occupations, the astronomer and the writer, their work spaces are quiet and secluded. The astronomer would spend the majority of his time in a lab pouring over film and analyzing and hypothesizing. The writer would obviously need a work space that was quiet and conducive to quick and fast production, especially if the writer was trying to meet deadlines. Both of these work environments suit my personality. Crowded places make it hard for me to concentrate, let alone write something worth reading.<>>There are many requirements to be either an astronomer or a science writer; however, interestingly enough, there are some overlaps. According to science careers on science buddies.org, both require imagination, creativity, and the ability to see the abstract. even their high school requirements are the same. Both areas should take classes in chemistry, biology, physics, algebra, geometry, and calculus. The astronomer needs these subjects to understand his job. The writer needs these subjects in order to write about astronomy successfully. A writer, of course would need to also take English courses to learn the art of communicating through the written word.<>>To be a successful astronomer, one would need not only a bachelor�s degree but a masters and a PhD. The writer need only have a BS degree to be a science writer; however, I am certain the more classes one could take beyond that degree, the better. Both degrees will take some planning and saving. The average cost of attending a college to obtain a BS degree is 25,000; however, to obtain a degree in astronomy the school�s tuition may be as high as 36,000. To continue on with a masters one would need another 27,000. To obtain a PhD one could need anywhere from 10,000 to 15,000 depending where he or she attends. Needless to say scholarships and financial assistance is necessary.<>><>>

Dear Investor,
Everyone knows that lightning never strikes twice. Everyone is wrong.
In fact, we're about to witness a technological "lightning strike" that could be 37 times the size of the last one. (Or quite possibly even BIGGER.)
Most people won't even notice it. And the usual Wall Street know-it-alls will tell you not to believe in it.
Because we won't see it with our eyes.
But I'm taking the precaution of emptying the change out of my pockets -- and investing today.
And you might consider doing the same.

About Us > Newsroom > National Jewish Health Named A Top Respiratory Hospital
17 Years on U.S. News & World Report List
DENVER – July 15, 2013 – For the 17th year, National Jewish Health has been named a top respiratory hospital by U.S. News & World Report in its 2013-14 ranking of leading hospitals in the nation. National Jewish Health has ranked as one of the top two hospitals in pulmonary care for the 17 years that the magazine has evaluated this category, including 15 years in the top spot. This year, National Jewish Health, along with its academic affiliate the University of Colorado Hospital, was ranked second. National Jewish Health and University of Colorado Hospital have been ranked together since 2011.
"We are proud to be consistently recognized by U.S. News for the outstanding work we do. It is an honor to be acknowledged as a leader in our field, a position possible only through the hard work and dedication of our doctors, our nurses, our researchers and all our staff," said Michael Salem, MD, President and CEO of National Jewish Health.
Rankings are one of several metrics, including research grants, influential publications, and patient satisfaction, that make National Jewish Health the leading respiratory hospital in the nation. In addition to offering unparalleled patient care, National Jewish Health faculty conduct groundbreaking research, and educate other physicians, scientists and health care professionals from around the world.
As part of its benefit to the community, National Jewish Health operates the Morgridge Academy, a free K-8 school on the main health campus and the only one of its kind in the country, serving about 90 chronically ill students who are challenged with difficult illnesses.
National Jewish Health is also ranked in the top 7 percent of institutions in the country funded by the National Institutes of Health, in terms of absolute dollars. And, the organization has consistently achieved the highest possible scores from patients in the Healthgrades survey in overall rating, doctor and nurse communications and other areas. The Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) ranks National Jewish Health in the top 1 percent of hospitals in the nation.
The U.S. News rankings are distributed annually and are based on a combination of factors, including selection by pulmonologists across the nation, patient volume, safety and survival, as well as technology and patient services. In 2011, a change in the methodology used by U.S. News caused National Jewish Health to be listed with its academic partner.
National Jewish Health is known worldwide for its treatment of patients with respiratory, cardiac, immune and related disorders, and for groundbreaking medical research. Founded in 1899 as a nonprofit hospital, National Jewish Health remains the only facility in the world dedicated exclusively to these disorders.

About the Book
The twelfth volume in the Last Apprentice series, the internationally bestselling fantasy adventure books that inspired the forthcoming major motion picture, Seventh Son. Told from the point of view of Alice, best friend—and true love—to Tom, the spook's last apprentice. Alice is the most powerful witch in the world, and she ventures into the dark itself. Will she return?
Alice Dean's destiny is intertwined with Tom Ward's. But he's going to be the next Spook, and she's a witch—possibly the most powerful one the world has ever seen. To rid the world of its greatest evil, the Fiend, Alice will venture into the depths of the dark for the final weapon Tom needs to defeat him. Will she survive? Or will she make the ultimate sacrifice for Tom?
The Last Apprentice series is soon to be a major motion picture, Seventh Son, starring Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, Olivia Williams, Antje Traue, Djimon Hounsou, and Julianne Moore as Mother Malkin.
I must be brave.
I must do what has to be done.
I am Alice.
Alice is the most powerful witch the county has ever seen. She may one day be the most evil. But Alice is also the best friend—and true love—of Tom Ward. Together they work to defeat the Fiend—the world's greatest evil—once and for all.
They have nearly everything they need, all except a blade hidden in the Dark, the Fiend's domain. So Alice ventures there to find it. She faces the most terrifying creatures in existence. And she once again battles old enemies who bear grudges: Bony Lizzie, Bloodeye, and more.
And there's something Tom didn't tell her. To vanquish the Fiend, Tom must sacrifice the person he loves most. Alice is hunting for the very blade that will eventually kill her.
