SAN JOSE -- In its nine-year existence, Xactly has grown from three employees to more than 300, and their ongoing praise for the company has earned Xactly honors as a great place to work from The Wall Street Journal, Forbes and the Bay Area News Group.
Christopher W. Cabrera, Xactly's homegrown founder, president and CEO, was raised by a San Jose "serial entrepreneur" whose innovations ended up in everything from microwaves to NASA's lunar rover. While Cabrera learned valuable lessons about entrepreneurship from his late father, Eduardo, a Colombian immigrant, the younger Cabrera's soul beats with the DNA of a natural-born salesman.
Xactly sells cloud-based management systems that instantly -- and more efficiently and cost-effectively, Cabrera says -- allow both managers and sales people to track critical issues such as bonuses and what products offer the most incentives for sales people. Xactly has more than 600 clients -- many with offices around the world -- including LinkedIn, Salesforce.com, Twitter, Motorola, Specialized Bicycles and Hyatt Hotels and Resorts. Xactly's customers use its services in multiple languages and 90 currencies.
Cabrera sat down recently with this newspaper in Xactly's offices on West Santa Clara Street to talk about why his employees are so happy and why he has no plans to ever leave downtown San Jose. The interview has been edited for length and clarity.
Q: Describe Xactly's employee culture.
A: It's a younger culture, a fun culture. The average age of our employees is in the low 30s. It's not a hoodies-and-bring-in-your dog culture, but I'm usually the only one who wears a suit. Giving back to the community is something I'm passionate about. It's easy to write checks and we do that, too, but it doesn't give you the same employee camaraderie. Every week a group of Xactly employees somewhere is working on food drives, assembling bikes and refurbishing houses.
Q: In your lobby's trophy case, among all of your company awards, is a large rubber band ball. What does that symbolize?
A: Every month we have an all-hands meeting where every new employee puts their rubber band on the ball. Rubber bands come in all different sizes, shapes and color. Together, when they're combined, they take on a whole new set of properties and the ball can be bounced or thrown where an individual rubber band can't. So our motto is, "That's how we roll." Somewhere in that ball is my own rubber band. There is no single band in there that's more important than any other. It's the collective that counts. Our employees are part of something bigger and we're trying to build something great.
Q: Why do sales-oriented companies need a cloud-based system for sales people?
A: We have data that shows 89 percent of companies use Excel spreadsheets for commission compensation. That means one person is trying to keep a spreadsheet for 200 sales people. All it takes is one fat finger to pay people inaccurately. At age 25, I was one of three area managers who were due $8,000 for the quarter. When I got my check it said $80,000, which was my annual income, instead of $8,000. When I brought it to my admin, she said, "You know, Chris, we would never have caught this."
The error was multiplied by a simple mistake so all three managers got $80,000. You can imagine how popular that made me with the other managers (who did not report the $80,000 mistake). It taught me that manual systems just don't work and don't motivate behavior. Under our model, sales reps can get on their iPads and smartphones anywhere in the world and find out where they're at in real time and how much they're being paid. Or in a remote sales office, a salesman can find out how much they'll earn based on certain sales before they close the deal. It's laughable compared to a spreadsheet-based system.
Q: Since your original Race Street location, Xactly moved to the old Knight-Ridder building and now to your current location on West Santa Clara Street. Why San Jose -- and why downtown San Jose?
A: I'm a big proponent of downtown. The location's great. There are a million places to eat. You're not fighting the traffic. It is the 10th-largest city with the benefits of a real city without the hassles. It's a wonderful place to do business and our employees love it. I don't intend to leave San Jose. I love it here.

2. Dreams of raising a herd of a dozen or so buffalo near his home in the Almaden area of San Jose and is working on a painting of a buffalo.
3. Keeps a revolving bucket list of 20 or so things to do before he dies, such as meet Pope Francis. Already accomplished some items from the list, including watching a Boston Red Sox game from seats on top of Fenway Park's Green Monster and writing a book (he's actually written two. The latest, "Game the Plan," is about using big data to create sales incentives).
4. Wants to teach a college-level class devoted to sales. "Through my undergrad years at USC and an MBA at Santa Clara University, I didn't have a single sales class. Yet a high percentage of business students will get their first job in sales. It's a learned art."
5. If he had not gone into business, he would have chosen a career as an archeologist, perhaps studying dinosaurs.

Darting here and there ...
Û Should they ever decide to run it again, we've got a name for the 49ers' option pitch play: The Gobble Gobble Jive Turkey Bobble.
Û Alex Smith not only wouldn't have messed it up, he surely would have audibled out of it, something young QB Colin Kaepernick might not have the chops to do just yet.
Û Enough ink on Kaepernick's tattoos. A nonstory in today's pro sports world. And that AOL story? Definitely not LOL.
Û Based on what we know now, there must be a few folks out there wondering what the 49ers' record might be if Peyton Manning had come to San Francisco.
Û Jim Harbaugh's kryptonite: His name might be Jeff Fisher.
Û It's become so bad and boring that you wonder if some segments of the Raider Nation are considering secession.
Û It's not just another double-digit-loss season for the Raiders but also seven losses by double digits. They're closing in on the 2-14 team of 2006, which had nine.
Û It's quite apparent it's a lack of talent, not a lack of coaching. OK, maybe a little lack of coaching. But Dennis Allen at least deserves a decent draft class to show us.
Û Speaking of the 2013 draft, Raiders-Chiefs game on Dec. 16 will go a long way toward determining whether Oakland has a shot at No. 1. Still in the hunt for that, anyway.
Û Cal athletic director Sandy Barbour said she interviewed between six and 12 candidates before hiring Sonny Dykes. Can we assume that means nine? Or were six that forgettable?
Û Ultimately, the defensive coordinator hire might prove more critical than the head coach for Cal. If his teams plays "D" like Louisiana Tech, Dykes is doomed.
Û You just knew the Bears weren't going to stoop to hiring a San Jose State guy. Heck, they won't even play the Spartans, let alone pillage their staff.
Û Over at Stanford, they're just hoping Sonny works out like Buddy.
Û Rose Bowl rumination: On Wisconsin, except for coach Bret Bielema, who's off to Arkansas.
Û Clever call by the Badgers to install athletic director Barry Alvarez as the one-game interim head coach. If nothing else, Alvarez is 3-0 taking teams to the Rose Bowl. Bielema was 0-2.
Û Hall of Fame ballot hasn't arrived yet. With all the steroid candidates on it, it must be coming by bulk mail.
Û The bad news from Cooperstown is that the late Bill King was once again denied the Ford C. Frick Award. The good news is that he finished second this time. Keep pushing.
Û Angel Pagan saluted fans in the wake of his $40 million contract by posing on Twitter clutching a bottle of Champagne. Not the cheap stuff, either, like from the World Series celebration.
Û Marc-O, Got The Dough. And stop hand-wringing about Scutaro's age. He's better at 37 than he was at 27.
Û You would think a guy with an alleged 160 IQ such as Brian Wilson would come around to the idea that it's nothing personal. The bet here is he stays a Giant -- too much merchandise down the tubes if he doesn't.
Û Dodgers G.M. Ned Colletti quote from the winter meetings: "We're 'in' on so many players, we may need two or three teams." How about just one good one, Neddy?
Û Much Ado About Nothing Dept.: The winter meetings produced three trades, zero eyebrow-raisers and nothing more than a whole lot of hot air about Zack Greinke and Josh Hamilton.
Û The A's have now gone three years in a row with nary a winter meetings move (sorry, we don't count the Rule 5 draft). It's becoming their annual four-day December vacation.
Û Timing Is Everything File.: Andrew Bogut Bobblehead Night at Oracle, Dec. 18. No truth that it comes with a little microfracture in its left ankle.
Û Actually, the most accurate rendering of a Bogut bobblehead (or should that be gobble gobble jive turkey bobblehead?) might have him sitting on a bench in street clothes.
Û Finally, all we want for Christmas is some ice hockey. Not likely, though, with the twin grinches, Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr, at the reins of the labor sleigh.

Building Meaningful Futures
Since our son was diagnosed more than 16 years ago, we've been part of a powerful learning experience full of some of the highest highs and lowest lows any parent can experience. At every age, our family and millions like us struggle with the answers to basic, immutable parenting questions such as, "what can I do to best support my child?" These questions become even more complex as our children enter adulthood and we wrestle with the looming question of, "who will care for my adult child when I'm no longer able to do so?"
A few years ago, the Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center (SARRC), in collaboration with the Urban Land Institute (ULI) and Arizona State University (ASU), began studying more than 100 residential programs throughout the U.S. and beyond, looking for best practices. We also explored opportunities for scalability and replicability within the fabric of urban and suburban communities, close to where families live. Further, we evaluated the financial catalysts needed to develop true public-private-nonprofit collaborations to create residential options that are part of a healthy community's housing plan. We're pleased to share these findings through our new study, Opening Doors: A Discussion of Residential Options for Adults Living with Autism and Related Disorders.
With more than 500,000 children entering adulthood within the next 15 years, we need to be assured that our adult children are able to live out their lives in comfort and safety, engaged in productive meaningful jobs and experiences that promote independence, and are part of communities that accept, understand and respect their differences.
We recognize that none of us can do this alone. The challenges are too large. The stakes, too high. Waiting is not an option. We must advance plans for the development of long-term residential housing for those individuals living with autism and related disorders, who are unable to live independently and who need support. And we need to advance those plans now.
SARRC is proud to serve as a partnering organization of Advancing Future for Adults with Autism (AFAA), which is bringing our autism community together, promoting a collaborative spirit and developing the public policy needed to create more accepting and inclusive communities.
Our son Matthew, now 18, has four years left in the public school system. That's four years to achieve our goal of empowering him to become part of the workforce and to someday live on his own. In the early years, we thought we'd have so much time to get him on track. There would be time to provide him with thousands of hours of therapeutic interventions. Time for science to advance and identify the causes and cures. Time for him to outgrow his autism. Time for a miracle.
While we may not have reached all our goals, SARRC, Autism Speaks, AFAA and our partners are continuing to make progress toward building meaningful futures for our children and adults – futures that include friends, jobs, homes and communities that support and value them. Please join us in this journey.
This guest post is by Denise D. Resnik, SARRC Co-Founder and Opening Doors Editor.

The Golden Millennium of Beyoncé continues today, as Us Weekly has just confirmed that Destiny's Child will publicly reunite on stage during the Super Bowl.
But make no mistake, Kelly and Michelle. Don't go telling all your friends you're going to be on TV. This is still a Beyoncé show.
Us reports that Beyoncé will open the halftime show solo, since she's the one the football teams are coming to see; then, "midway through her performance" she will be joined by the surviving members of Destiny's Child.
The trio will perform a medley of their hits before launching into a brand new song called "Nuclear," which probably opens with Kelly, builds to a show-stopping Beyoncé verse, and Michelle is on stage, too.
Beyoncé will perform the finale, rumored to be the debut of a new track from her upcoming album, solo.
Yesterday, Beyoncé revealed that Destiny's Child would soon release their first original track as a trio since 2004 and also that she is crazy.

One of the most respected writers in the field of speculative fiction, Lois McMaster Bujold has won numerous accolades and awards, including the Nebula and Locus Awards as well as the fantasy and science fiction genre's most prestigious honor, the Hugo Award for Best Novel, four times (most recently for Paladin of Souls).

In Passage, volume three in Bujold's breathtaking saga of love, loyalty, and courage in the face of bigotry and dark magic, the devoted wedded lovers Fawn Bluefield and Dag Redwing Hickory are joined by new companions in their quest to find peace, acceptance, and a place in a most dangerous world.
Volume three in the epic fantasy sagafrom multiple Hugo Award-winning author Lois McMaster Bujold
Young Fawn Bluefield and soldier-sorcerer Dag Redwing Hickory have survived magical dangers, but the bigotry of blood kin cannot be easily overcome. Leaving behind all that they have ever known, they set off to find fresh solutions to the perilous split between their peoples—a passage that will not be ventured alone. New companions join them on their road: Fawn's brother, Whit, escaping a hopeless future on the family farm; two novice Lakewalker patrollers fleeing the catastrophic consequences of an honest mistake; a young flatboat captain searching for her vanished father and fiancé; a shrewd backwoods hunter; and a farmer boy unintentionally beguiled by Dag's growing magery. On an eventful journey to where great rivers join, the ill-assorted crew will be sorely tested and tempered as they encounter a new world of hazards both human and uncanny.

Ashton Woods Homes dives into Southwest Florida
Published: Monday, October 14, 2013 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, October 12, 2013 at 4:55 p.m.
ONE OF THE LARGEST PRIVATE homebuilders in the country has begun aggressively expanding into Southwest Florida for the first time, spending more than $8 million on land to roll out new communities in Sarasota and Bradenton.
"Our land guy is talking to people to pick up as many lots as we can. We have a lot of big plans."
– Michael Roche,
vice president of sales and marketing for Ashton Woods' Tampa-Orlando
Executives at Atlanta-based Ashton Woods Homes say that rapidly rising home prices -- and a demand for residential real estate that is greatly outpacing supply -- has made this area its primary focus for Florida expansion this year.
The company's entrance into this market comes as a slew of competing homebuilders are rushing to bring new properties onto the market at the fastest pace since the area's housing bubble began forming nearly a decade ago.
"We had plans to expand across the state, we just had to wait for the economic indicators to get better," said Michael Roche, vice president of sales and marketing for Ashton Woods' Tampa-Orlando division. "When the market turned, Sarasota was a natural progression."
Ashton Woods broke into the market this year with the purchase of about 18 acres near the Sam's Club off Cattlemen Road in Sarasota, for $3.35 million.
The homebuilder already is selling models at its debut Whitaker Park community. The subdivision is slated for 91 single-family homes, with nine model offerings now available. The three- and four-bedroom designs range from 1,710 square feet of living area to 3,111 square feet, priced from $267,990 to $326,990.
Ashton Woods has been building homes in Orlando and Tampa for more than a decade, and it has sold hundreds of homes in those markets this year.
Whitaker Park, along with the 140 homes Ashton Woods will build as part of the new phase of the Rosedale Country Club in East Bradenton, will be the company's first developments in Southwest Florida.
"The inventory is low, and there's limited opportunities," Roche said. "Prices have strongly increased over the past year in Sarasota, so we feel the timing is good."
Ashton Woods doesn't intend to limit its development to Whitaker Park and Rosedale. The builder also has acquired 23 home sites off Palma Sola Boulevard and Cortez Avenue, in Bradenton, for a new community called Palma Vista.
Roche said the company is building three-, four- and five-bedroom homes with Key West-inspired architecture there. Homes will range from 2,400 square feet to 3,800 square feet of living space.
At Rosedale, where Ashton Woods is now selling homes from models, residences will contain three bedrooms and a study, and will range from 1,962 square feet to 2,580 square feet of living space. Prices there are from $319,990.
Roche added that strong initial sales in those communities already has the homebuilder targeting a fourth new development here, together with similar expansion plans in Naples, on Florida's East Coast and in the Panhandle
If they reach fruition, those projects will double the size of the company's Florida footprint within the next year.
"Our land guy is talking to people to pick up as many lots as we can," Roche said. "We have a lot of big plans."
Ashton Woods is not the only homebuilder keeping active in the region, of course.
Pent-up demand from retiring baby boomers, coupled with a supply of existing homes for sale approaching decade lows, has fueled a prolific rebound in Southwest Florida's homebuilding industry.
Builders started construction on 970 single-family housing units in Sarasota-Bradenton during the second quarter, an increase of 71 percent when compared with last year's rate of 568 units, according to industry researcher Metrostudy Corp.
During those same three months, builders sold 755 single-family homes, which was 48 percent higher than the year before.
"We do think building is picking up here and across the nation," said said Tony Polito, regional director of Metrostudy's Sarasota market.
"We have been trending up for really the last year or two. Sarasota is one of those markets that builders know will be strong with baby boomers and retiree demand."

Let Students Pay Their Way
Published: Thursday, December 13, 2012 at 12:06 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 13, 2012 at 12:06 a.m.
I read with interest the winning entries in The Ledger's Student Editorial Writing Contest that were written by the students from George Jenkins High School, especially the one regarding funding of public colleges.
No wonder our country is in such financial trouble. Neither the country nor the state owes students a college education. Students interested in going to college need to get part-time jobs when they're 16 and start saving their own money for their own education.
If they can't afford to go to school, but it's their life's desire, they need to take eight to 10 years to graduate instead of four and work their way through. This way they won't have any loans to pay back when they've graduated.
Where is the pride in doing it myself, making my own way, owing nobody anything? If they're going to learn to be future leaders, they need to learn how to lead their own lives first.
If they can't do it and their parents can't help them, they need to get a job and go to night school or a trade school. The trades are suffering right now, and kids graduating from trade schools will probably be making much more money than future leaders.
Where do these kids think these thousands of dollars come from when they go to school for free? Nothing is free. Somebody is paying.

Southeast Asians Furthering Education (SAFE) is part of the Student Recruitment and Retention Center.
SAFE aims to empower Southeast Asian students to actively pursue higher education, retain Southeast Asian students currently enrolled in institutions of higher learning and engage parents in the educational process. Retention services provided include: study halls, academic workshops, old test database, retreats, and socials.
Outreach efforts will target Southeast Asian middle and high school students within the Sacramento area. The services provided include: college workshops, campus visits, conferences, parent workshops, and resources.
Through recruitment, retention, resource and referral services, SAFE will empower students to successfully enter into and graduate from institutions of higher education.
SAFE is located at the Student Community Center in the Student Recruitment and Retention Center
For more information, e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. We are always looking for staff members. You can volunteer to help us out and even receive transcript notation through the ICC
SAFE is a student-run student initiated organization made entirely by student coordinators and a team of interns and volunteers (VIP). SAFE composes one seven of the Student Recruitment and Retention Center, which in itself is a department of the Student Community Center.
SAFE is loosely divided into two components: Resource, Retention, and Recruitment.
Southeast Asian Leadership Retreat
The upcoming retreat is scheduled for 04-06 November 2005. There have been two retreats in the past, so this upcoming one will be the third ever.
SAFE visits two high schools on a regular basis: Grant Union and Valley High School. SAFE is present at one middle school: Samuel Jackman Middle School.
(Note: We used to visit Luther Burbank High, Florin High, and Highlands High School, but since, the point of contact has been busy to support our activities and we no longer have the ability to maintain our presence.)
- Weekly Visits During the 2004-2005 school year, SAFE made weekly visits every Friday to all schools with regular visits to Burbank in the Fall. At these visits, we stress the importance of higher education by presenting workshops on academic and cultural topics such as Lunar New Year, food, time management, FAFSA, college applications, and study habits. These visits are great for recruitment because they allow a one-on-one interaction between college students and high school and middle school students.
- Field Trips SAFE occasionally gathers a group of students and takes them on a university visit. This year we went to San Jose State. We also took a group to Asian Pacific Culture Night.
- Middle School/High School Conference In May 2005, SAFE held a conference on the UC Davis campus open to all the students we had outreached to through out the year. There was a guest speaker, workshops, a scavenger hunt, a talent show, and much more.
Communities Served
Although SAFE targets certain primary communities, we do not refuse anyone who seeks us out wishing to enlist our services. These primary communities are those ravaged by the Vietnam War, groups from Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. These include Vietnamese, Lao, Cambodian, Chinese, Hmong, and Iu-Mienh. Why do these communities deserve special attention? Imagine yourself as a farmer in Davis. All your life you've been farming and all your skill sets relate to farming and animals. Out of nowhere, the old Southern Confederate states suddenly declare secession again! But this time is different, they have no defined boundaries, and war's leadership are Southern peasants who wish to overthrow the government. A war breaks out and drags on for a few, terrible decades. Although the secessionists don't crush the conventional military, they succeed in frustrating American morale and inflict crushing losses. In a gutsy move, the U.S. arms its rural citizens to fight a guerrilla war. Now, knowing nothing about war and tactics, you overcome overwhelming odds by rescuing thousands of regular troops and crush superior forces in your battles. However, looking at the reality of the situation, people are dying everywhere, and you see no real reason why all of this is happening. After nearly a generation of fighting, the Washington eventually falls apart under its own weight. As chaos rips the land, you decide that to escape the new regime (in some areas they've already "cleansed" so many people that the regular war looks pleasant), you have to escape the country. You grab your closest family and friends and prepare to flee. But before you do, you must evade vicious patrols that shoot on sight, the wilderness of the countryside, and the ubiquitous starvation. After the exodus, you join millions of other refugees in crammed sardine style ships in sailing to distant places you've never heard of. You're forced to assimilate into a radically different culture, learn a new language, find some means of support, and ultimately raise children. This is just a sample of what the first wave Southeast Asian refugees faced in the U.S.1 If such an occurrence were to happen stateside, we'd probably at least have the fortune of traveling an open countryside instead of navigating thick jungles and the deadly Mekong River. Better yet, many countries speak English and most have an educated population exposed to some American culture. Of course, I know the scenario sounds ridiculous, such as the notion that the American government can implode, and then the following regime openly torturing its citizens, but this is what happened in Southeast Asia.
Every SRRC component organizes its coordinators in a different manner, but every group has an administrative coordinator, a Retention and Recruitment Organizing Committee Representative (RROC) (the RROC also functions as a Student Director), and a number of different retention and recruitment coordinators. Some groups have specific duties for coordinators, such as ACE's and Yikal Kuyum's retreat coordinators.
SAFE's current staff positions consist of the Student Director/RROC Representative, two recruitment coordinators: the Middle School Outreach Coordinator and the High School Outreach Coordinator; and two retention coordinators: the Community Development and Advocacy Coordinator, and the Holistic Retention Coordinator. Although specific duties and areas are laid out, the coordinators function as a team and work collaboratively with each other and their interns to accomplish SAFE's goals.

Founded in 1999 by Kao Vang and the other RROC Reps: Laura Akers, Isis Castro, Jehan Clark, Christina Escobar, Yvonne Marsh, Javier A. Tarango, and Michelle Villaluz. Kao Vang was SAFE's RROC Rep. Prior to the SRRC, no component of the SRRC had functioned individually except for Bridge
Much of the SRRC's culture and administrative structure finds roots in UCLA's Student Retention Center. The UCLA SRC makes use of "mother organizations," established student groups that provide support for the fledgling campus department. Many people both oppose and uphold this model of structural support. SAFE is supported by the Hmong Student Union, currently one of the largest and strongest Asian Pacific Islander student UCD clubs. Kao Vang was a member of HSU, and with her initial support, SAFE became predominantly staffed with HSU members. Although that trend continues today, SAFE is beginning to reflect more of the Southeast Asian community. Our goals has always been to further the educational needs of all Southeast Asians.
To the outsider, SAFE's most visible reflection of change can be seen in the coordinator titles that we hold. In the past there have been rigid titles that attempted to clearly define a person's role in managing strategic goals. It's not clear how strongly past coordinators adhered to those titles, but titles are beginning to matter less and less in the SRRC. We commonly refer to each other as being "resource, retention, or recruitment" instead of our formal titles. You can also notice how different areas fade and fold into others, especially the "transfer student" and "peer mentorship" positions. Recently, SAFE has decided that these are auxilary to the programs of other campus organizations. For example, clubs on campus have better and stronger peer mentorship programs than SAFE, owing strongly to the fact that those clubs are easier to identify with than SAFE. Since there are so few Southeast Asian transfers on campus, SAFE has decided to scrap a formal component and serve that population on a case-by-case basis.
Diane Yang is currently the youngest RROC member, in terms of both age (DOB 07 November 1986) and school year (sophomore). Correct me if I'm wrong, but she's also the youngest RROC ever to sit on the committee.
1. This scenario is made of bits and pieces of the refugee experience. For example, not everyone fought in the war, but a large majority of the lower classes did. The "cleansing" occurred in all three nations, but was most pronounced in Cambodia during the Khmer Rouge, where in the span of a few short years, one third of the population had been killed.

The acoustic set was a lot of fun. People were enjoying the sing-a-longs and so was Trey.
Funny story: I was standing right next to these two girls who had told me they'd driven down from CANADA to see the show. These girls were pretty loaded and during 'Driver' you can clearly hear one of them yelling obnoxiously through the entire song "YEAH TREY - COME BACK TO CANADA" - which leads to this banter from Trey:
"I would LOVE to come back to Canada - for the person who just said that. It might be a little trickier than....I'm not supposed to go to Canada right now. Sorry...
::laughs - girl keeps shouting::
Yikes....Canada scares me. I like the people. It's those mean, mean folks at the border that don't like me very much these days.
::crowd boos - girl continues to yell::
I'm sure saying that publicly is going to improve my chances. Don't tell anyone I said that, I love the people at the border. It's between me and you. It's our secret
::girl continues to yell as if Trey doesn't want to go to Canada::
I love Canada! Listen, I used to spend every summer for a month and a half in Guelph Ontario from the age of about 12 to 16 playing hockey. at the university of Guelph, you know what I'm talking about? That's before Rock 'n' Roll turned me into a degenerate...and I loved every second of it! Anyway...can't win 'em all." (transcribed from LP Recording)
This show tends to spark conversation on whether or not Trey is allowed into Canada, I think its safe to assume now he is considering they had a date scheduled in 2013 but still he implies there was a time when he could not.
During the 'Down With Disease' our area started singing the solo and it caught on, Trey even did the stop for us at the end before he goes into the final chorus.
'Liquid Time' was performed acoustically with a stripped down version of the band and sounded great. 'Push on Til The Day' absolutely ripped with a full band to the end first set.
The second set is filled with a lot of raging Type-I rock and really driven and focused playing from Trey. All the TAB classics were played well and the newly worked 'Clint Eastwood' cover was certainly a crowd pleaser. The 'Sand' to end the second set was absolute fire. Trey really had a fantastic handle on the flow of the jam. The band follows him so well you almost forget they're there until Natalie and J-Haw come in these beautiful peaks that seem to excite the entire group. This was happening all night but most prominently and satisfyingly in 'Sand' and 'First Tube'. After the second set ends and Trey does the band introductions and thanks the crowd saying it was the best night so far you can hear him exclaim to no one in particular a bit off mic "Fucking Pittsburgh!" in disbelief and then kick into a perfect 'First Tube'. You could tell he'd had a good night.
Once we were leaving the venue that night we saw that Snoop Dogg was playing the next day and tickets were still available, so we ended up raging Snoop Dogg the following night. Both great decisions. Probably one of my funniest back-to-back show combinations I've seen.

News 12 This Morning / Thursday, Sept. 27, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- The city of Augusta is gearing up for a big weekend. It's the ESI Ironman 70.3 and Augusta's is the biggest in the nation.
The Ironman consists of a 1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike ride and a 13.1-mile run.
On Thursday, bike racks already filled the field near the riverfront marina in preparation for Augusta's second biggest sports event of the year.
"This is the weekend, this is the week," said Brinsley Thigpen with the Augusta Sports Council. "It's huge, it's exciting, it's fun, it's big."
Augusta's ESI Ironman 70.3 is growing every year.
"We're expecting the biggest numbers ever, the most athletes ever," Thigpen said.
"We've got approximately 3,500 athletes for this year, which is the largest 70.3 in the United States," said Race Director AJ Sills.
This is the fourth year the event is being held in the Garden City.
"We have two more years that it's definitely coming back to Augusta, but we want it to come back year after year," Thigpen said. "It's such a positive impact into our community."
The biggest impact is economic. This weekend's event is expected to bring around $4 million to the area.
"Between local gas stations all the way to bike shops, the impact really embraces the entire city," Sills said.
They're staying in our hotels, they're eating in our restaurants, they're filling their cars up with gas at our gas stations, they're at the grocery store," Thigpen said.
Around 10,000 people will fill the city on Sunday and it's that support that race officials say make this event a success.
"We found that the support from the city of Augusta is overwhelmingly positive, and with that relationship, it's really kinda hit the nail right on the head and made this event and this market one of the premiere events," Sills said.
The athletes are already heading into town. Cyclists will be out on the roads all weekend long, so drivers need to make sure they are paying extra attention.
"Please be safe, be courteous, be aware," Sills said. "There's a lot of them out there."
Over 1,000 volunteers from the community are needed to put on this event. Event organizers are still looking for around 150 volunteers to help with the cycling course on Sunday. If you are interested in helping, visit ironmanaugusta.com for more information.
Also, over the next four days, they will be raising the river up about a foot. They're doing that so the swimmers won't hit the weeds in the river while they are swimming. After the event, they will lower it back down again.
The boat ramp at the Riverfront Marina will be closed Saturday and Sunday. The westbound lane of Broad Street between 8th and 9th streets will close at 11 p.m. on Thursday and remain closed until 6 p.m. on Sunday. Gordon Highway ramps will be closed at Broad and Bay streets from 4 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday and the 5th Street bridge will be closed from 4 to 10 a.m. on Sunday.

Everything was great! Very good location! Alvaro was very helpfull and friendly! Thanks a lot!
Great apartment in the centre of Lisbon and very close to the metrostation as well. It has a kitchen with all the equipment you need and a lot of space. Everything was very clean. We had a great stay.
very central and nice place to stay in lisbon. alvaro was always reacting very quickly and he was very helpful. very recomandable.
We had a great time in Alvaro's flat!
It's really nice, warm and everything a tourist needs is provided.
It is located in a very good position: near to the centre, to the undergroud and to tipical restaurants.
Besides Alvaro is a very kind host and he gives every kind of information.
Strongly recommended!
Thanks a lot, Alvaro!
Thank you very much for beeing your guests. We enjoyed very much to stay in your beautiful town and the nice Appartment. We wish you all the best best. Kind regards Dominica and Frank
Lisbon is a very beautiful - and very big - city. Àlvaro was extremely nice and checked with us during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. The apartment is fairly spacious and has everything one needs - with the exception of a window. A little bit of cross ventilation would have been nice. The location was extremely convenient. It is located at the top of a rather steep hill but we quickly got used to that. The magnificent Avenida da Liberdade and the metro are just a few minutes away. Obrigado, Àlvaro! Wyley and Sanjay
Alvaro's flat was really nice and comfortable ! It has a good location near to the center, it is very clean. There was all we need for our living. Alvaro is a great host, friendly and a very handsome man ! We thank Alvaro very much or our wonderful holidays in Lissabon and hope very much to see him in the near future again. We also would like to invite Alvaro to us in Russia, in Nizhny Novgorod ! Alvaro, you are welcome to us !
It was fantastic experience to leave in Alvaro's appartment What I liked the most was direct exit from living room into the street- no stairs, no dragging up our luggage while living and- what is the most important- great possibility to observe the street and it's citizens durning their every day activities without going out :)
The center is just 10 minutes walk from the appartment what eliminates necessity to use public comunication or car.
The appartment itself was very tidy, cosy and well designed. We've found there everything we needed to prepare breakfast. By the way- few meters from the appartment is small caffteria with good coffee,sandwiches and something sweet to bite (in case You do not want to waste Your time preparing it by yourself).
And finally- the host. :) We arrived to Lisbon at 3:30 a.m. but for Alvaro it was no problem to wait for us. Thanks to his flexibility we could spend the rest of the night in beds, instead fidgeting at the car seats.:) Thank You once again for Your hospitlity and perfect living conditions. Muito obrigado
This is a good apartment in good prize.
Situaction of the apartment is very comfortable, near subway and city center. The street is very quiet.
Thank you Alvaro
Family Rogowski from Poland
Lovely flat located centrally in Lisbon (near the Rossio train station). A great deal and wonderful host!
The beds were a little too hard for my liking and there was no natural light except for in the living room. But, since we were here to see the city those things did not matter much. Everything else was great!

Where would be the correct place to add spindle control codes?
M3 spindle on CW
M4 spindle on CCW
M5 spindle off
Sn is the RPM to run the spindle at. If it is 0 the spindle will not run.
For example M3 S2000 would need to be inserted before any moves and M5 after all moves are done.

An American collector of pictures arrived and bought all of the 30 exhibits in the show for a large sum.[11]

PROFESSOR, DOCTOR LEON WINER. Leon WINER was born in Bialystok to the earlier mentioned Bialystoker German teacher WINER. In America, he became a great philologist, professor at Harvard University in Massachusetts. He is named Leon after his mother's father, Leibl KRINKER (RABINOWICZ).
DR. LEON ZAMENHOF. The famous author of Esperanto is a Bialystoker. He is the oldest son of Markus ZAMENHOF. He was born in Bialystok in December 1856 on Jatke Street, which now is called Zamenhof Street. He studied medicine in Warsaw, Moscow, graduated in 1884. Practiced as an oculist in Kherson, Grodno, Warsaw where he died on the 15th of April, 1917 at the age of 58.
Earlier, he was a Hovevei Zion [Lover of Zion] and, later, a Zionist. Founded the first Zionist group, the Friends of Zion, in Warsaw. He published a brochure in Russian about Hellenism and Jewry.
All portray him as a very refined and ideal man. Several years ago, his admirers around the world attached a marble tablet
[Page 427]
to the house where he was born on Jatke Street in Bialystok. In Skver, a foundation was also laid for a monument at the edge of the forest.
DR. AHRON-HERSH ZOBELMAN. Dr. Ahron-Hersh Zobelman was born and educated in Bialystok on Grachowe (Nowalipe) alley. He was known as a prodigy during his youth. He had a phenomenal memory. He did not visit any synagogue. In 1881, he entered the Paris Medical Faculty as a baccalaureate [candidate], where he studied the so-called colonial medicine and assisted Professor Sharke, to whom he delivered a work about nerve and physical illnesses. The professor predicted that he would be very important in treating the illnesses and gave him a separate ward in his hospital. Dr. Zobelman did not want to take up a private practice.
He studied the Laws of Moses. However, he was not satisfied with only medicine and was a diligent person and had a yearning to study everything and to know everything. It was also said of him that he knew 16 languages and their literature and all the disciplines of the exact sciences.
When he would come to Bialystok in the later years, he would visit me because he was also very interested in my Biblical-Talmudic research. I would be amazed when I found that he was also familiar with the area. Speaking about various attitudes in Talmud, he would recite them aloud. He wrote very many medical articles in the French and Russian trade journals. He also took part in the Russian-Jewish Encyclopedia about Talmudic medicine and about Jewish doctors. I believe, however, that his intuition, his strength in Torah was not so great.
He lived withdrawn and frugally, far from matters of the world. He did not get married. He would use his earnings to buy books. He had a large library. In 1906 he came to Petersburg. He was counting on being given a university chair of a professor by the liberation movement, but he did not receive it. He entered a university for experimental medicine and received a paid position to translate all of the medical reports from all of the world medical faculties.
In his way of life, he was typical of an old Jewish tzadek [a righteous man] and gaon [sage] in the modern sense. It can be said of him that he was religious.
[Page 428]
While here during the Days of Awe he would pray at the Choral Synagogue on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
He was mobilized as a doctor on the battlefield of Serbia at the beginning of the First World War. At the beginning of 1915, he became ill there and went to Kiev and died there in the Jewish hospital at the age of 56. He promised his library of 10,000 volumes to scientific institutions.
MAXIM LITVINOV, or MEIR HENEKH WALACH. The now world known Foreign Minister of Soviet Russia, MAXIM LITVINOV, was born in Bialystok on the 17th of July, 1876. He is a son of the Bialystoker, MOSHE WALACH who was the brother of the Rabbi, Reb SHABTAI WALACH, the great Ruzhany Rabbi who died several years ago and a great grandson of DOVID WALACH who was the Jewish diplomat at the Russian regime in Bialystok in 1812.
MEIR HENEKH WALACH was brought up on Nowolipier (Grocower) alley with his father, who was the bookkeeper for ELIHU MALOCH, the great Jewish Bialystoker banker.
He received his upbringing in the ancient khederim [primary religious schools], beis-medrashim [houses of study or prayer] and Hasidic shtelblekh [one room prayer houses]. He received his first education in the four classes of the gymnazie [secondary school] to which one went in order to avoid military service, through this becoming a volnoopredelyayushchisya [volunteer rather than be conscripted].
At first, he entered as an employee of a manufacturing business, but he immediately entered the revolutionary movement.
He was arrested for the first time in 1896. Later, he escaped abroad and was active there in the revolutionary circles and he developed with them. Today he lives in Moscow with a wife of English nobility and a son and a daughter. He is completely estranged from the Jewish people, as this is the nature of everyone who runs across from one extreme to the other.
Dr. LEON PINES. Bialystok had Jewish diplomatic intelligentsia who were Enlightened-Zionists, such as Dr. EPSZTAJN, Professor at the Jewish hospital, his aide, Dr. ZIMAN, Dr. SH. GUTMAN, private attorney, LEON TRAJWUSZ and the like.
[Page 429]
There was also a group of young intelligent Zionists found in the city then, with LEON PAPERIN at the head, who spread and deepened Zionism in Bialystok and in the area through various informational means.
At the head of the young, diplomatic intelligentsia stood Dr. LEON PINES, a nephew of the well known Hebrew writer, YEHIEL MIKHAL PINES of Ruzhany.
In 1899 Dr. LEON PINES settled in Bialystok as an oculist and opened his own independent clinic for eye illnesses here. From here he became widely known as a great oculist. Hundreds of the sick were drawn to him from the farthest places. He demonstrated wonders with his operations. In 1925 he was recognized as an honorary member by the Vilna University.
Dr. LEON PINES was active in Zionist-Hebraistic-National circles in Bialystok. He was chosen as a viborshtshik [representative] to the second Duma. In 1928 he moved to Warsaw and in his place left his son, his assistant, as an oculist.
At this opportunity it is worthwhile to mention that there was already an oculist-specialist in the period 1850-1888 in Bialystok, a certain Reb MEIR SHOYKHET (ritual slaughterer) BRUMER, to whom those with eye illnesses from the entire area and also farther places were drawn. His sanatorium was the red house near the synagogue. It was said that once the Grodner governor called him to heal his sick eyes. He did so; he did not want to take any payment, but asked that Bialystoker Jews, who were innocent but sat in prison, should be freed from the Grodner jail and the governor honored his request.
AKIVA RUBINSZTAJN, who is considered a world chess champion, is a step-son of the local Pinsker child prodigy and was raised here.

Nice first set. SOAM has that original melt grove. A fun Fee well performed. Ice>Glide>Bowie makes a great set closer. I like It's Ice as a song. It tells a story; very progressive type of a song. But sometimes I think the funky changes can throw the band off. They totally nail this one. Glide. Special song, secret song, sacred song. An amazing, slightly fast tempo version. A great Bowie with a "structured jam" that walks into near lunacy finishes it off. UB Bowie...
Second set has a really good Fluffhead, very clean. Really this entire show has that great Phish chemistry that is one of a kind. You can tell they're comfortable with it. There's a BBJ in the second set. Probably a lot funner to be there than to hear it with no big ball. A cool little Mike's Song intro for a Groove. Indeed the primary riff for Simple is present just for a couple of bars. My understanding is that that riff poped up here and there in '93 and debuted in '94. I love that song. The music and lyrics are from Mike Gordon's journal. Great Gig in the Sky>Weekapaug, oh hell ya. A hard to hear Carolina on the version I have. Barbershop with one mic. As it should be I suppose. A hoppin' Rocky Top tops it off, complete whit hoots and hollers.
It should be noted that Johnny B. Fishman was on top of things all night.
"See you tomorrow."

An Elkins woman arrested after police found nine marijuana plants in her apartment remained in jail Monday on a $35,000 bond.
Donna Lynn Wilfong, of 401 Lincoln Avenue, Apt. 2, has been charged with Prohibited Acts A, which state code defines as the manufacture, delivery or possession with intent to manufacture or deliver a controlled substance.
According to the criminal complaint in the Randolph County Magistrate Clerk's office, at 4 p.m. on Friday investigating officer Cpl. A.M. Channell with the Elkins Police Department spoke with a confidential informant at the Elkins Police Department. The confidential informant, who said he'd recently been in Wilfong's apartment, told Channell that he allegedly observed "several" marijuana plants in Wilfong's living room. The confidential informant estimated that about eight to 12 plants, each approximately 1 foot tall, were planted in planter boxes.
Channell subsequently obtained and executed a search warrant in Wilfong's residence, where he allegedly found "nine small marijuana plants and several different drug paraphernalia items," Channell wrote in the complaint.
Chief Magistrate Ben Shepler set bond at $35,000 cash or surety, and as of presstime, Wilfong remained in the Tygart Valley Regional Jail.
The penalty for a conviction under Prohibited Acts A is imprisonment in the state penitentiary for one to five years, a fine of up to $15,000 or both.
