This comment
discusses the assumptions we have been using in our commentaries over the past
20 years or more. We have been consistently
reminding our viewers that the debt built up over the years has a major bearing
on the economic health of the U.S. [More]
We warned
our viewers, over and over again, how the Dot.Com Bubble and Housing Bubble
would play out. We are now warning our
viewers that the unwinding of the "Central Bank Bubble" will be worse than
either of the other two bubbles. It
seems like most investors continue to show apathy even with the warnings by us
and quite a few others of the "unintended consequences" of the central banks
doing things that have never been done before.
Those investors are in good company because it appears to us that the
leaders of the major central banks of the world do not have any idea of the "unintended
consequences" either.
Think for a
moment about exactly what changes the Federal Reserve took in continuing to
keep the Federal Funds rate at zero or close to zero for approximately the past
8 years. This is called ZIRP (Zero
Interest Rate Policy) and the Fed, or any of the central banks that followed
the Fed's lead, had any idea of the "unintended consequences" of this policy. [More]
We live in an age of anxiety, and rightly so: Worries about the global economy are most emphatically not just in our imagination. The question is, who's going to bear the blame, come November?
The Age of Anxiety? With all due apologies to the late W.H. [More]
It's time Stephen Sondheim wrote another carnival song, and, more specifically, a sequel to the hauntingly memorable "Send in the Clowns" from his 1973 musical, A Little Night Music, which has proved so eerily prophetic in describing this year's political scene. As a glance at the crowded roster of Republican wannabe candidates for the presidency in next year's election makes clear, the powers that be in the GOP obviously have taken quite literally Sondheim's injunction that served as the title of the song, while the Democrats already have their very own barker and no shortage of mountebanks ensconced in their big tent. [More]
The natives are growing restless everywhere. And they're taking to the streets, boiling mad. [More]
The bearish view on earnings makes the most sense.
IF YOU WATCH OR READ OR LISTEN TO BUSINESS NEWS, you must be getting very confused about whether the stock market is undervalued or overvalued. [More]
Short-selling funds are ready to come out of hibernation. Bear funds have had a rough run the past two years, as their strategy of betting against stocks has put them on the wrong side of a solid bull market. [More]
NORMALLY, WE DON'T GIVE a hoot as to who wins when one bunch of 25 millionaires takes up glove and ball against another bunch of 25 millionaires. It's like rooting for Gates against Buffett, or visa versa, when they don their knickers and face off in a game of golf. [More]
Here's what we found in examining the last seven economic recoveries: In the first 30 months of the last seven cyclical expansions, employment rose by an average of 7.4% (range: 9.6% to 2.6%). This includes one cycle that peaked in 24 months with a gain of 7.4%. [More]
Charlie Minter appears on CNBC Low speed stream High speed stream
The list of negative factors affecting the stock market has now become so numerous that it is highly likely that a severe bear market has already started. We begin with the fact that, as measured by earnings and dividends, this is by far the most overvalued market of the past century. [More]
A reporter asked us about the prospects of the stock market if the Fed raises the Fed Funds rate, since at the time there was a strong possibility of a rise in the rate to around 25 basis points. We explained that, in our opinion, the ending of the ZIRP (Zero Interest Rate Policy) and increase in Fed Funds will be a significant negative for the stock market. [More]

I know that I am new here and I have been trying to find a solid solution for a UPNP server as I have been let down with some of the other solutions out there and so far this is the best one that suits my needs.
I have ran into issues (aka... I broke) the following;
- Plex
Apparently, their parsing engines could no handle the amount of data that I was trying to push to them. Then again, over 700GB in music and more in movies kind of takes it's toll on systems that need to parse the information into either the local or external database. I even tried to back-port the connections to an external MYSQL database but I found out that the UIs on the systems were way WAY to unstable to handle this amount of information. Anyways, since PMS only grabs the data that it needs as it is being accessed this was massive benefit to me. That along with the fact that the system can be used with many different clients as it is just using UPNP/DLNA.
Anyways, now that I am off of my rant I must say that I really like the product but I am running into one minor issue that is just an occasional annoyance that I have been trying to work around for some time now.
- When using the PMS system and when I have not been using XBMC and only the PS3 for a while, I have noticed that my files cannot be accessed via UPNP file support from the XBMC system. I am not really sure what would cause this issue but I can see that both of the render engines are listed for the PS3 and the XBMC. Yet the only way I can resolve this issue is to restart the server and wait for it to re-detect the encoding engines that it is talking to.
Please let me know the following;
- What configuration files need to be looked at
- What properties need to be might need to be adjusted in the UI
- What logs need to be looked at
- What threads may have already addressed this issue
What I can provide
- Log files
- tcpdump from Linux systems
- Client PCAPs using wireshark
My current configuration,
Windows 7 (64-bit)
Intel Extreme 3.2 6-core i7
24GB Ram
XBMC 12 Frodo
Server Host
Host OS = VMware ESXI 5.1
HDD = 4WD Red 3TB RAID-5 (8ish TB Total) (Adaptech Raid)
AMD Bulldozer Vishera 8 Core CPU
16GB RAM (Soon to be 32GB)
Dedicated Server on Host
Host OS = CentOS 6.3
CPU Cores = 4 Cores Dedicated
Memory = 8GB Provisioned (Soon to be 16GB)
HDD Space = 2TB (Soon to be 4TB)
Network Configuration
CrapCast Cable Modem (It is a Cisco thoe with 10/100/1000 Uplink port)
Cisco 2851 Enterprise Branch Router Running Latest IOS (NAT Configuration Only! No ACLs, with Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces WAN/LAN)
Cisco 3548 XL Enterprise Switch (10/100 with 2 Gbics)
D-Link (Green 24Port Gigabit Switch)
Desktop = StarTech PCIE 4 Port Nic 10/100/1000 and Onboard Gigabit (Asus GENE III MicroAtx)..... tested on 4 port nic and on on-board only one port enabled
ESXI System = Two Trend Net TEG PCI-E NICs One Management, the other VMnet. The VMnet is shared between my File Server also CentOS and the PMS system
The ESXI system and my client box are on the same network locally going through the same switch (Dlink Gigabit) when the issue occurs. I have not tried another system yet or another switch yet as I am not sure if my system is the cause of the issue. My router granted does not have UPNP/DLNA support outbound as this is a Enterprise router however, this should not impact the internal traffic to the PMS system. Please let me know what should be tested, data collected or where I can go from here. I would love to assist in testing to get some of these issues resolved, I guess I am a little unsure as to what you would be looking for. I can also assist in the filtering of the captures if needed as I do packet captures and testing on network security devices on a daily basis.
Any input you can provide would be awesome....

STOCKTON - An 8-year-old girl in north Stockton suffered a major wound to her foot Thursday afternoon as a result of the apparently accidental discharge of a shotgun, police said Friday.
The girl's mother, 32-year-old Aurora Almaraz, was arrested on child endangerment and weapons charges, according to police.
Officers responded about 12:30 p.m. Thursday to the report of a shooting in the 6800 block of Allegheny Place. When officers arrived, the victim was no longer there, having been taken to a local hospital by a private party, police said.
The investigation by police revealed that the girl had been shot. Almaraz was questioned and gave conflicting statements and refused to allow officers into her home to process the scene and collect evidence, police said.
Detectives got a search warrant and reported finding a sawed-off shotgun and a handgun. Police said they are continuing to investigate the shooting and also have gained the involvement of Child Protective Services. Almaraz is in custody at the San Joaquin County Jail, with bail set at $700,000.

9.4-3 Criminal Trespass in the Second Degree -- § 53a-108
Revised to December 1, 2007
Note: Subsection (a) (1) concerns buildings and other premises and subsection (a) (4) concerns public land. Tailor the instruction accordingly.
The defendant is charged [in count __] with criminal trespass in the second degree. The statute defining this offense reads in pertinent part as follows:
a person is guilty of criminal trespass in the second degree when, knowing that (he/she) is not licensed or privileged to do so, (he/she) (enters / remains)1 (in a building / on public land).
For you to find the defendant guilty of this charge, the state must prove the following elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
Element 1 - Entered or remained
The first element is that the defendant (entered / remained) (in a building / on public land).
[<If trespass to a building is alleged:> Ordinarily, "building" implies a structure that may be entered and used by human beings, as a residence or for business, or for other purposes involving occupancy by people, whether or not it is actually entered and used as such. <Insert one or both of the following parts of the definition as appropriate:>
The law has expanded this definition to include, in addition to what we ordinarily know as a building, any watercraft, aircraft, trailer, sleeping car, railroad car, other structure or vehicle or any building with a valid certificate of occupancy.
The statutory definition also provides that where a building consists of separate units, such as, but not limited to separate apartments, offices or rented rooms, any unit not occupied by the defendant is, in addition to being a part of such building, a separate building. In other words, any one of these separate units, separately secured or occupied, when intruded upon, may be considered a "building," plus the whole building is considered a "building" for purposes of any unlawful intrusion into any part of it.]
You must also determine whether the defendant unlawfully (entered / remained) (in the building / on public land). A person unlawfully (enters / remains) (in a building / on public land) when (he/she) is not licensed or privileged to do so. To be "licensed or privileged," the defendant must either have consent from the person in possession of the (building / land) or have some other right to be (in the building / on the land).
[To "enter" a building the intruder need not necessarily place (his/her) entire body inside the building. Inserting any part of (his/her) body, or an implement or weapon held by (him/her), within the building is sufficient to constitute an entry as long as it is without license or privilege. It does not matter how an intruder may actually have entered; if (he/she) did so without license or privilege, (he/she) has entered unlawfully.]
[A person may have entered the (building / public land) lawfully, that is, (he/she) had the right or had been given permission, but that right is terminated or the permission withdrawn by someone who had a right to terminate or withdraw it. You may find that the defendant "unlawfully remained" (in the building / on the land) under these circumstances.]
Element 2 - With knowledge
The second element is that the defendant knew that (he/she) was not licensed or privileged to do so. A person acts "knowingly" with respect to conduct or circumstances when (he/she) is aware that (his/her) conduct is of such nature or that such circumstances exist. <See Knowledge, Instruction 2.3-3.>
In summary, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that 1) the defendant (entered / remained) (in / on) <identify the building or public land>, and 2) (he/she) knew that (he/she) was not licensed or privileged to do so.
If you unanimously find that the state
has proved beyond a reasonable doubt each of the elements of the crime of
criminal trespass in the second degree, then you shall find the defendant
guilty. On the other hand, if you unanimously find that the state has failed to
prove beyond a reasonable doubt any of the elements, you shall then find the
defendant not guilty.
1 Do not instruct on both "unlawful entering" and "unlawful remaining" if the information and the evidence could support a conceptual distinction between the two. See "enters or remains unlawfully" in the glossary.
Criminal trespass in the second
degree is a lesser included offense of burglary in the second degree with a
firearm. State v. White, 97 Conn. App. 763, 779, cert. denied, 280 Conn.
939 (2006).

President Obama Signs Bill Extending Energy Efficiency, Renewable Provisions
January 5, 2011
President Obama on December 17 signed a bill that temporarily extends through 2011 various energy efficiency and renewable energy provisions, including Section 1603 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, which provides cash assistance to energy producers in place of tax credits. Under this program, the federal government provides a cash payment in lieu of a tax credit totaling 30% of the qualifying cost of the project. The measure, passed by the U.S. House and U.S. Senate and hailed by renewable energy industry associations, extends for one year the start-of-construction deadline for projects such as wind and solar power that are eligible under Section 1603.
Other provisions extended through 2011 include a $1-per-gallon production tax credit for biodiesel as well as diesel fuel created from biomass; credit for manufacturers of energy-efficient residential homes; a 50-cent-per gallon alternative fuel tax credit; the existing per-gallon tax credits and outlay payments for ethanol; credits for U.S.-based manufacture of energy-efficient washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators; certain credit for energy-efficient improvements to existing homes; and a 30% investment tax credit for alternative vehicle refueling property. See the President's remarks upon the signing of the bill, the bill summary with energy provisions on pages 6-7, and statements on the passage by the American Wind Energy Association, and the Solar Energy Industries Association.

It's the ultimate target for thieves, and you're making it way too easy for them.
As you'll see in this News 12 Special Assignment, your identity is up for grabs.
It's up to you to keep what's truly yours.
The problem is, your identity is already out there...online, in the mail, and in your trash.
"Identity theft is the fastest growing crime for the sixth year in a row according to the FTC," says Todd Davis. Davis represents a new generation of companies that make a living helping you keep what's yours.
We'll tell you more about that in a minute.
But first, you need to hear what happened to Kevin Lloyd.
He was at work, minding his own business, checking his e-mail one day. It turns out somebody else was minding his business too.
"Checking e-mail, working, doing normal stuff, when I got an e-mail from Regions Bank saying they needed to verify my account information," Kevin says.
It looked just like it came from his bank, but it didn't.
Kevin fell for one of the newest tricks in the book.
It's called "phishing", and it's just one more way the bad guys steal your identity.
And the moment he clicked on the site and gave them his account number, the damage was done.
"So they took money out of my savings account, put it into checking, then went to an ATM and withdrew out of my checking account."
"How long did it take you to realize your mistake?" we asked.
"My wife is actually the one who realized it--I was home babysitting my daughter. She went to Wal-Mart and paid with a debit card. They rejected it."
It was already too late.
But the Internet is not the only danger area when it comes to identity theft. Junk mail can make the bad guys rich. Make sure you destroy all those credit card offers.
"Don't leave your mail out there," says Davis. "When you get it, shred it. They're breaking into mailboxes; they're getting the pre-approved credit card offers. Not only are they using them, they're paying the bill for 6 months so they can get that limit up."
And don't pay your bills out of your mailbox.
"Don't leave that flag up...that's just a signal to thieves to come by, because you probably have a credit card payment with all your personal information," Davis says.
These days, even your ATM can be spying on you. Thieves have been known to use a hidden camera to watch the numbers you punch on the keypad.
What else can you do to protect yourself?
That's a question that leads us back to Todd Davis and his company, Lifelock.
For a fee, Lifelock will monitor your credit report and make sure no one is pretending to be you, spending your money.
"If your identity is ever compromised in any way, we will fix the problem, period," Davis says. "If that means somebody committed a crime and you got thrown into jail, we are going to bail you out, provide you a lawyer and clear your credit back to where it was before you were a victim...and reimburse you up to $1 million in losses."
Regions Bank did everything it could to work with Todd's family and get his accounts straightened out.
The banks are not at fault here; they're victims in this too.
Just this week, Suntrust launched a free identity theft protection and credit monitoring service.
Again, some of the do's and don'ts:
Don't be fooled by an e-mail that looks like it came from your bank. They don't need to verify your information--they already have it.
Don't pay your bills out of your mailbox. That little red flag is a signal to thieves.
Whether you do it yourself, or you pay someone to do it for you, monitor your credit report, and shred those pre-approved credit card offers. These days, even your trash can be used against you.

NACOGDOCHES, Texas – Stephen F. Austin used a 10-0 second-half run to pull ahead in a tight affair, as the Lumberjacks knocked off the Texas A&M – Corpus Christi men's basketball team 58-49 on Saturday night at Johnson Coliseum. The game, which featured eight ties and 10 lead changes, was the season finale for the Islanders.
Will Nelson led the Islanders with 15 points and seven rebounds, going 5-for-11 from the field in the contest. Johnathan Jordan added 15 points and eight assists, finishing the year with a school-record 155 dimes. Nate Maxey also capped off a record season, blocking four shots to finish the year with a new Islanders mark with 57 blocks.
Taylor Smith capped off the regular season with a double-double, posting 17 points and snaring 12 boards in his final game at Johnson Coliseum. Desmond Haymon went 4-for-8 from downtown for 16 points, while senior Antonio Bostic added 14 points in the win, which clinched an outright Southland Regular-Season Championship for SFA.
The Lumberjacks opened the game with a 6-2 lead, as Smith and Hal Bateman combined for all six points for the home squad. But the Islanders came right back with seven points in a row, four by Zane Knowles and the remainder on a triple by Nelson to make it 9-6. From there, the two teams traded baskets to a 15-12 score, then three straight points at the free-throw line helped SFA knot the score 15-15 with 9:07 remaining.
The Jacks pushed back ahead on an alley-oop to Smith, but the Islanders responded with an alley-oop of their own, this one from Jordan to Maxey, to tie the score once again. From there until halftime, neither team had a lead of more than one possession, with a Jordan three-point play at the 1:19 mark putting the Islanders ahead by one. The sophomore added two more points at the line to push the lead to three in the final minute of the half, but SFA got two back on a layup from Thomas Walkup, then gained the lead at the half when Haymon pushed the tempo off a defensive rebound and was fouled, hitting two free throws to send it to half with the Jacks up 30-29.
The back-and-forth continued out of the half, with SFA pushing the lead to 33-31. A three from Hameed Ali gave the Islanders the lead back at 34-33, as the Islanders used a 6-1 run to go up 37-34. The Lumberjacks then got a big three from Bostic to tie the score for the eighth and final time of the night, following it with a second triple to push the advantage to 40-37. The Islanders got two back to trim the deficit to 40-39 on a floater by Jordan.
But that's when SFA commenced its decisive run, combining strong defense with conversions on outside shots to open up their largest lead of the night at 50-39. Bostic delivered a pair of threes, while the other four points came from fellow senior Smith. The Lumberjacks were able to lock down defensively over the closing minutes, and held on for the 58-49 victory.
The Islanders close their season at 6-23 overall and 5-13 in conference, but played their best basketball at the end of the season. A&M – Corpus Christi went 4-4 over its last eight conference games of the season, with all four losses coming to the league's top three teams.

Lama arrives at religious festival, India
On a research trip to Tajikistan and India this summer, Panthera's Snow Leopard Program Executive Director, Dr. Tom McCarthy, happened upon a religious festival as he emerged from a trek in the mountains while visiting India's Ulley Village. Tom came upon the festival just minutes before the arrival of the guest of honor, one of India's highest-ranking Lamas, as the Lama passed through the city of Ladakh, stopping at every village along the way.

Looking back on this cold November Illinois night, my memories are dominated by a ninety-minute period. The drive down, the parking lot, the hall itself, the first set they are all cloudy visions, made hazy by time and other, more memorable experiences. My clearest memories of this night, though, come from the second set the only set in six years of Phishing where I have been lucky enough to "ride the rail," stand and dance in the front row. It is amazing how a simple act of "placement" can so completely change an experience.
Champaign was my fourth Phish concert, third show that fall. I had already seen the Pittsburgh/Buffalo run, and after having been very pleased with what I had seen and heard, I was really looking forward to the Champaign/Auburn Hills run. The trip from South Bend to the University of Illinois at Champaign was rather uneventful, and it didn't take long for us to find the Nervi-influenced arena known as Assembly Hall. Seemingly oblivious of the cold, damp air, a sea of people were milling about the odd, cooling-tower-like building vending, looking for miracles, just hanging out. And while it took some work by our crew, we were able to find the one extra that we needed.
On entering the arena, I realized I had to split up from my friend Joel he thought he was somewhere near the front, and while I was on the floor, I was back in the opposite corner, Fishman side. The inside of the Hall is as odd as the outside the floor is very small, wider than it is deeper, with the bleacher-seats coming directly down. I found my place to the right of the tapers and waited for the show to begin.
I truly wish I remember more of this set. My memories include a pleasant surprise at hearing Axilla, part one rather than part two (I still enjoy part one over part two I believe it is because of the cadence of the lyrics), my attempt to come up with the name of All Things Reconsidered (which hadn't been played for 108 shows), and my excitement in the Antelope closer, which was full of energy. It seemed as though Trey had some problems with his rig, but I really didn't pay much attention. Throughout the set, I took some pictures from my vantage point on the floor I had gotten my camera in and thought that I could get some nice shots from where my seat was. If I only thought ahead and kept some pictures I finished off the roll .
Before the first set started, my friend Joel told me that he would come find me during the intermission, and if his seats were decent, I would try to get up with him. So I sat in my seat, enjoying the break, waiting for Joel. As he came up to where I was, I noticed a huge smile on his face. His seat just so happened to be located against the rail, right in front of Page! And guess from where I was going to watch the second set? While it was a little tight up there, I do not think I could stop bobbing up and down and jumping needless to say, I was a bit excited.
As soon as the lights came down and the band took the stage, I was in a zone. It was amazing to be right in front of Page, looking up at him, and to look across the stage at Trey, Mike, and Fishman. It really was a different world, staring up at the band, watching their feet, watching the photographers run back and forth in front of me on the other side of the rail. For the first few notes of 2001, my friends and I were scurrying around, trying to make our cameras work I used up all of my film and Joel's batteries had run out. Damn! Here I am, in the best seats I would ever have, and I used up all of my film. Oh, well, that is what my memory (and tapes) are for, I guess.
The opening 2001 was a quick but fun one. The intro wasn't extended at all as they transitioned directly into the main theme, with Trey moving over to his drum pads for some added texture. The song lasted only about four or five minutes before Fish's repetitive cymbal beats marked the beginning of Maze. Just like the Maze I saw in Pittsburgh a month earlier, this was a rager. Page was all over the keyboards during his section and Trey picked up right where Page left off for his blitzing guitar solo. Great one-two opener. Bouncing followed. I didn't mind.
As soon as Bouncing finished, Trey launched into Simple; one could assume that they knew they were going to play this song next. The band seemed to have this air of confidence as they moved through the opening "What is a band?" section. Maybe they knew that this was going to grow into a must-hear version of Simple. Trey quickly jumped onto his drum pads and added some high-pitched chime sort of sounds while Page played the piano. They slowly quieted down with the jam becoming a bit atmospheric; Page played very well here, both on the piano and the keyboards (sounds as though he jumped to the Moog at one point). As Mike played some high notes on his bass, Trey kept adding texture with his drums and his guitar (although he wasn't really strumming his guitar, just using pedals and effects). Ten or so minutes in, Trey starts to wrestle out some notes. As Mike and Fishman increase the tempo, Trey joined in with some faster licks. I need to mention that somewhere in here Trey clearly started to have more trouble with his rig. It was actually rather humorous to watch him get so angry he would jump back towards it and give it this half-assed karate kick. This actually happened a couple times. Kind of amazing, when you think about it, that with all the problems Trey had, this Simple ended up being one of the best played (in my opinion). Wow around fifteen or so minutes into the jam, while Trey rocked out, Fishman just went crazy on his kit. He was all over the place! It was a change, as up until this point he had just helped in keeping the tempo. Fishman might have tired himself out, as before you know it, he slowed the tempo back down, bringing the jam to a close. All I could do was shake my head. Not much in the way of Type II jamming, but it seemed to be composed so well, just flowing in and out of tempos and sounds.
"Got to kick it sometime, you know?" Trey exclaimed to the crowd, apologizing for his display maybe. Fishman added "That song featured Trey's broken guitar rig."
Lightening things up a bit, Loving Cup followed. This was a first for me and I just soaked it in, taking drink after drink. With each "Gimme little drink!" Page pounded out more notes on his piano, Trey squeezed out more notes from his guitar. Boy oh boy, what a beautiful buzz.
And the buzz was increased as Trey didn't hesitate to go right into the beginning of Mike's Song my second ever. Next to my friend Pete and his big red wig, I must have looked like a goof, jumping up and down the way I was, holding on to the rail. The tramps section is pretty normal, and Trey followed it up with some interesting repetitions featuring his wah-wah. This Mike's became a bit spacey with some nice soaring before the (normal) Simple intro. At this point, everyone seems to drop out a bit. Page played around on his organ, and Trey moved over to his drum kit to play some interesting squeak and "water drop" sounds (grouped with backward "water drop" sounds).
At this point, to my surprise, the band left their instruments and headed towards the front of the stage. Trey's remaining loops and effects slowly came to an end. As they became situated at the front of the stage, Trey thanked everyone and announced to the crowd that they were going to be singing the National Anthem at an upcoming Timberwolves basketball game (for "those of you who have a TV"), and they needed some practice. A nice treat, with a great crowd reception, but it kind of disrupted the rhythm and groove of the Mike's, which was just getting interesting.
This must have been Technical Difficulty Night, but this time, it was Mike's turn. As the band prepared to launch into Mike's Groove, with Fishman starting things off, Mike attempted to start slapping and nothing happened. For a few seconds, he just couldn't get anything to come out and then all at once this fast, repetitive pinging came flying out of the speakers. Bu-duh, bu-duh, bu-duh! I guess whatever effect Mike uses at the beginning of Weekapaug just wasn't working right, and it came out all at once. Weird. This effect kicked in once or twice more during the Groove. After the vocals, Trey ripped into a nice soaring solo, with Page (again) on the piano nice and rocking and drawn out for three or four minutes. Before heading back into the "Trying to make a woman" section, Trey talked over the music, thanking everyone for coming.
I was a bit disappointed with the choice of Theme as the encore. I didn't know what to expect, but this really wasn't it. I am not saying it was bad, by any means, as it did take flight and soar for a bit. (Kind of odd to hear the synchronized clapping at the beginning.)
I certainly left that evening more than satisfied I never thought that I would be against the stage, and to witness that Simple from that vantage point was worth the price of the ticket in itself. Coupled with the following evening (Buried Alive opener, Divided Sky, Tube, meeting Andy Gadiel, tenth row for David Bowie/Harry Hood sandwich second set with YEM in between), my second two-show run of 1996 was a success. Even if I don't remember every detail.

Post subject: Co-Sleeping
Does anyone else do this?
I never wanted to start because it scares me. So worried about something happening to him in my sleep but after 3 weeks of trying everything the only place he would sleep is on my chest.
He only wakes for one feed in the night and after he has had his feed he does not settle on my chest and wants to be cuddled into my side with my arm around him.
Is there any advice?
We have his cot pushed up against our bed as the matress of his cot and our bed is level so i am trying slowly to put him into it but at the moment he is having none of it!!
He does not even like being put down during the day and wakes instantly but i am keeping with it and not giving up!! xx

I think its the change in temperature that wakes them sometimes and they're comforted by your warmth, they do say if you are going to co sleep to have baby next to you, but not touching you and on top of the covers in a baby sleeping bag (as you can't tuck blankets in to stop them going over their face)
With my winter babies I would have a hot water bottle in the bedroom to put in their cot while I fed them so if they started to doze and I put them back in bed they didn't startle , swaddling helps some babies as well as they feel like they're being held, with my youngest I had a thing with two foam pads in to support him as he side slept (he was prem and I didn't want to put him on his back) and that seemed to make him feel snug and secure as well
Some babies though aren't fooled by any of it and just want to be held though and the only way to break them out of it can be preserverance and the pick up put down method but with that you pretty much have to do it until they go to sleep otherwise its back to square one and it can take hours .
I'd say try sooner rather than later though as I let my second child sleep on me and she didn't spend a full night in her own bed until she was 6 months old and even then would often wake a few times a night and I'd end up letting her in our bed to get some sleep . I did give up because I had a toddler as well and it was easier but it just made it worse in the long run and dragged it out ( until she was nearly 2) its not easy to crack when you're tired though, maybe if you can crack it during the day first with the pick up put down it might help with the nights
Good luck xx

I never did co sleeping as like u said I was too worried but I realise it works for some people. He's still really young at the moment so I think it's just a case of persevering with him Hopefully once he settles during the day he'll do the same at night. I had Olivia in her Moses basket for the first nearly 13 weeks, do u think he just doesn't feel safe/ secure because there's lots of space in his cot. I know that sounds stupid but when he's on you he'll feel safe. Sorry I can't really help. X x

Same here. We swaddled both of our girls which we felt helped. Evie would cry - we would make sure she was OK then allowed her to self settle with us nearby to make sure she didn't make herself sick from crying (which she never did).
It's a tough one to decide, but whatever you do, choose it, both agree and be consistent - don't give in. He will get the idea eventually

Oh this takes me back...four years ago to this date we brought our daughter home from hospital. I hadn't slept in 86 hours n was totally exhausted as was OH...the first night home was awful.DD just wouldn't settle in her Moses basket so she slept on our chests for the first few nights just to allow us to get some sleep. We knew we def didn't want co-sleeping so during her last feed i would sit on her mattress and put her blanket up inside my top...that way her mattress n blanket were warm and smelt a little of me...she settled very quickly in to her Moses basket from then...she's four now n we've never had problems with her wanting in beside us
Maybe give that a try or if he's in a sleeping bag then feed him while he's in the bag...that way he'll be nice n warm and there will be no faffing about with the bag when putting him down
I know it's hard listening to them cry especially being so young but with perseverance he will get used to it and you will be glad you went through with it think of the benefits of not sharing your bed with a little baby

We had real trouble at night time for first few days and I found swaddling worked wonders and used swaddle pods. I think if you start now you will be setting a rod for your own back further down the line. I'm not against co- sleeping but I like my own bed too much. Babies learn very quick too!!

I've never been there, and I might completely change my mind in 4 months time with a crying baby, but personally I don't agree with it. I believe couples still need their own time and space, and with a new baby, bed is the only place you're going to get it. My sister's best friend has co-slept and her baby is really clingy and still wakes through the night. He's 7 months old now and she's having to put off going back to work as she can't leave him. There's no saying he wouldn't have been a clingy baby either way, but I think he's been too smothered and not got into a routine from early enough. Again, I may change my mind, after waiting so long for a LO, I might never want to leave their side xx

I have tries swaddling, hot water bottles, t shirts that smell of me, white noise. He would never go in his moses basket and slept in his vibrating chair for the first 2 weeks but would not even sleep in that after.
From day one i have made sure i try to put him down every time he falls asleep so he didnt turn into a clingy baby but has always woken up within 20mins.
Last night we tried his cot. I even kept my arm around him whilst he was in it but he still wouldnt settle so no sleep for me last night.
He ends up over tired by the end of the day because i put gim down everytime he goes to sleep but he wakes himself up.
I think he is to young for controlled crying and its something i said i didnt want to do because it can leave them traumatised and it can lead to nightmares and them feeling abandoned. But i am starting to think i have no choice.
I really dont know what else to do!!????
Heath i always felt the same as you as me and oh dont get any time tigether at all. But it was literally the only thing i could do to get sleep.xxx

I co-slept with ava for 5 months and I plan to do the same again with this one, makes breast feeding so much easier and they seem to sleep better for it. I was worried about squashing her at first but soon realised I was still aware she was there even when asleep if that makes sense. She would scream and scream unless I had her in the bed with me and it hasnt made her a clingy child as alot of health visitors suggest. I honestly loved the midnight cuddles, its what im looking forward to most this time.
Its each to their own though and what you feel happy with but there is nothing wrong with either way imo xx

I co slept with my son and do so now with my daughter. Not all night but due to breastfeeding, I do.
Also, I don't believe you are making a rod for your own back by co sleeping..like I said I did it with my son who was a very clingy, needy baby. He still slept well in his cot and adjusted well to his own bed and has never once wanted to sleep with mummy and daddy once lol.
My son was very much like your son Erin. He was quite a miserable baby (sounds awful saying that but compared to my daughter..he was quite hard work )
We have taken the side off the cot and it is next to the bed so just pop them back across when feedings done. I had to swaddle my son and my son couldn't sleep flat. He absolutely hated being on his back, be it in a cot, basket, play mat/gym etc hated it. so we used to sleep him on my breastfeeding v pillow, either raised slightly on his back or use the pillow to support him if he slept on his side. Have you tried side sleeping, or even tummy sleeping?
I do think he's too young for controlled crying. I'm not totally against CC but I don't think it should be done before 6mth IMO.
I read something the otherday about how all a baby know's is the smell, the sound and the warmth or their mummy (and daddy) so they do find it hard to adjust when you put them down, sometimes all they do want is a little cuddle (I think thats why swaddling came about..as it makes baby feel secure, snug and warm).
Does Travis have any calm periods where he will allow you to pop him down awake, maybe after a feed and nappy change, could you maybe try encouraging him to self soothe/settle whilst awake.. maybe stroke his head or sing to him gently?
I do also believe every baby is different.. some are very relaxed little souls whilst others are quite high maintenance I've had one of each Things will get easier in time..it won't always be this way

I wouldn't put him down already asleep Erin , if he falls asleep on you and then stirs a bit and suddenly realises he's in bed on his own it can be upsetting and wake them up properly, then as he's not learn't to go to sleep without you he won't resettle, I found the best way was to put them down awake , just at that point when you know he's sleepy but he's not asleep yet so he realises he's been put down and I wouldn't do controlled crying with a very young baby either I think they need the comfort at that age , I found the pick up put down the best one and sometimes just standing by them gently patting them or stroking their face can help at first so they know you're there but you're not holding them and then if they start to cry pick up until they stop but as soon as they're quiet back into bed .
Or if he sleeps out in his pram maybe take him for a walk to get him to nod off during the day
My first I never put down asleep always awake because I had my sister in my ear constantly telling me not to I did listen to her though as she had 3 boys already , second time round she didn't live nearby and I had a 15 month old as well and all that went out of the window and I would hold her till she was asleep and then try to sneak her into her crib and she would do what your baby does and wake (usually screaming ) about 15-20 minutes later so I'd end up with her in my arms practically all day ,never got anything done, same at night she wouldn't sleep and i'm sure thats why i got PND that time , 3rd time round I went back to what I'd done with my first and she was a brilliant sleeper
How you do things though depends on if co sleeping bothers you
I don't think there's a wrong or a right and all of mine have had nights or parts of nights sleeping in my bed but I did find that it made me more tired, just because you're always aware they're there so i don't think you sleep properly xx

I really don't agree with co-sleeping as I don't understand how people can risk the dangers, you hear of and read such horror stories of it going terribly wrong - I do however agree that its a personal choice and just because that's how I feel doesn't mean others do/should think the same way. I also notice people seem to say it is easier if you are bf but I've bf both of mine and still bf baby occasionally but when he was in our room he was in the moses basket right next to the bed so I only had to lift him out and pop him back.
Oliver was a good baby and once he was a few weeks old he slept fine (albeit up every few hours for breast feeding) now Max, OMG, was a completely different story! He screamed and screamed and screamed, I was exhausted, dh was exhausted and we were that tired that I cried and dh was on the verge of it a few times however we knew it was important to get into a routine from the beginning as not to create bad habits (also I know a couple that co-slept with all 3 of theirs - the oldest didn't leave the bed til she was 7, the middle child when he was 6 and the baby of the group, who is 3, is still in the bed, they just wouldn't sleep in their own bed - but thats another story). We tried so many things with Max and found in the end that swaddling really worked for us after trial and error.
What I would say is persevere, not necessarily controlled crying but similar as a week of hardly any sleep is a small price for full nights in the future.
Also sleeping on the chest does scare me so as the other lady said if you really can't do anything about the co sleeping at the very least I would put baby on top of the covers in a baby sleeping bag.

I fall asleep while BF my daughter and have never moved while doing this, I think it is definitely a individual choice. I personally didnt do it until my daughter was about 10 weeks old because she was very small and I did worry.
I have also found my daughter doesnt like to be put down when she is already asleep - I think it is a bit of a scary surprise to wake up in a different place to where you fell asleep - instead I wait until she is sleepy but not asleep.
I think what DL05 suggests sounds sensible - it might be hard initially but after a bit of persistence it might work!
Hope your little man settles down soon so you get some sleep!

Innovations and Inaugurations: Franklin D. Roosevelt
Innovations and Inaugurations: Franklin D. Roosevelt
01.15.13 | By Stephanie Fischer
In New York City in 1916, in the first large outbreak of polio, more than 9000 people were infected and more than 2300 people died. The nationwide toll was nearly triple. As the years passed, the death toll mounted. A record number of cases were seen in the U.S. in 1952, with nearly 58,000 people stricken.
According to the National Museum of American History (which features a fascinating look at national epidemics), polio was dreaded partly because how it was transmitted was unknown and it occurred primarily in children. Homes were quarantined and victims isolated in the hospital. Some towns prohibited the entry of children under the age of 16 in an attempt to prevent the spread of the virus.
Franklin D. Roosevelt was 39 when he contracted polio during a vacation to a lake in Canada in 1921. This, coupled with the prevalence of infections in July, August and September, caused people to fearfully avoid pools and lakes.
Despite losing the use of his legs, FDR was able to return to public service and was elected to the Presidency in 1932. He won re-election in 1936, 1940 and 1944, securing a place in history as the only U.S. President to serve more than two terms.
Dr. Jonas Salk began his research on the poliovirus during FDR's presidency. He began testing a vaccine in 1952 and reported his results in 1953. The vaccine was tested nationwide in 1954 and by 1955, more than four million Americans had been vaccinated.
There were nearly 30,000 cases of polio in the U.S. in 1955. As more Americans were vaccinated, the number of cases dropped dramatically - to less than 6,000 in 1957.
Another researcher, Albert Sabin, developed an oral vaccine for polio in the late 1950s. While the Salk vaccine is used in the United States, the Sabin vaccine is used overseas as it does not require trained healthcare professionals or a sterile injection site.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. became polio-free in 1979 thanks to the vaccine. Polio still exists in other countries, however, so the vaccine is one of the recommended childhood vaccines.
The CDC partners with the World Health Organization, Rotary International, and the United Nations Children's Fund in a public-private partnership to eradicate polio worldwide. Through the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, more than 2.5 billion children have been immunized and the occurrence of polio has decreased 99% since 1988. According to the Initiative, countries with polio epidemics have decreased from more than 125 in 1988 to four (Afghanistan, India, Nigeria and Pakistan) in 2006. You can view maps that show the progress in eradicating the disease on the Initiative's website.
PhRMA and our member companies have contributed to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative through continuing research on the polio vaccine and through contributions to the Rotary PolioPlus campaign.
There is no doubt of the worldwide suffering and death averted by the availability of the polio vaccine. Since then, vaccines have been developed for Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, avian flu, cervical cancer, prostate cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
Biopharmaceutical companies are now working to develop vaccines for infectious diseases such as HIV infection, cholera, dengue and malaria as well as numerous cancers and neurological diseases.

For 'Last Stand' Director, a Tough Hollywood Debut
Hollywood is a rough place when you're the new guy in town, even for a celebrated filmmaker.
Kim Jee-woon was well out of his comfort zone directing his debut Hollywood movie, "The Last Stand," starring governator in his first leading role in a decade. At a Seoul press conference this week, Mr. Kim described the experience as "lonely," "difficult" and "controlled."
Mr. Kim is one of South Korea's leading directors and is known for a wide range of films, including the stylish Korean Western action comedy "The Good, The Bad, The Weird," the thriller "I Saw the Devil," and the horror flick "A Tale of Two Sisters." He was taken aback, he said, by the "gap" he felt between the moviemaking environment he witnessed in Hollywood compared with the attitude and approach he was used to at home.
He said he could write a book about all the challenges he faced trying to finish his movie. For one, the strict rules when it comes to lunchtime.

Recently Marty Sheller was asked how many of his original compositions were registered with B.M.I.; the answer was approximately 80. When the topic of how many albums contained Marty Sheller arrangements came up he said that he had lost count a long time ago and had no accurate answer. Considering the acuity of Marty's ears and the breadth and depth of his musical knowledge this is hardly surprising. He's had the eminently deserved good fortune to have his work recorded by some of the most talented people in the music business, including George Benson, Ruben Blades, David Byrne, Willie Colón, Jon Faddis, the Fania All-Stars, Larry Harlow, Giovanni Hidalgo, Manny Oquendo and Libre, Sabu Martínez, T.S. Monk, Idris Muhammed, Luis "Perico" Ortíz, Louie Ramírez, Tito Puente, Mongo Santamaría, Lew Soloff and Woody Shaw. Marty joined Mongo's group in November 1962 as a trumpet player; by the late 1960's he had stopped playing trumpet and began making his living exclusively as an arranger, composer, conductor and producer. We present Marty's reasons for this decision; reading this in the context of listening to one of his fiery, yet logically organized and fluid trumpet solos with the Santamaría unit [e.g. Mongo at the Village Gate, OJC 490] gives evidence of his very high standards and modesty. This article is drawn from extensive interviews conducted at Marty Sheller's home in Newark, Delaware on various occasions in 1996.
David Carp: You first began playing with Latin groups around 1960. Coming from a background in jazz and American dance music, did the rhythmic feel take some getting used to?
Marty Sheller: Definitely! The first time I played with a Latin band the idea that the bass doesn't play on the one absolutely floored me! But because I had studied as a drummer originally and always had a very good sense of time and feeling for rhythm it only took me one gig's worth to start to recognize what it was and why it grooved me as much as it did. I was also lucky to meet Frankie Malabe when I started playing Latin music. He saw a guy that was very open to a different kind of music than he was used to and I saw the same thing in him. So he would listen to the jazz records I gave him, I would listen to the Latin records he gave me and Frankie was very well versed in drumming and Afro-Cuban rhythms. He was a big Mongo fan, he had a lot of those Drums and Chants records and hipped me to a lot of those things. Frankie would work with a band, would get me in the band, then he would go on to some other band and get me in that band. He did that when he was working with Harvey Averne, Louie Ramírez, Pete Terrace. I always considered myself very lucky that I had someone like Frankie to start me off with a good foundation.
DC: You were an eyewitness to the incredible popularity generated for Mongo Santamaría by the success of Watermelon Man and the record industry's attempts to recreate that success. How did this affect the music and what was your role in Mongo's dealings with record companies?
MS: For a number of years every record company, every album that came up, there was always a, shall we say a suggestion that Mongo do some non-Latin cover songs. They figured "We can't force him to do a whole album like that but we can get him to do a couple, so we'll let him do a couple of the things that he would want to do and a couple that we want." As far as I'm concerned it really caused a problem because what audience do you sell it to, who is the market? Because somebody who's gonna want something like Shotgun, they're gonna hear Afro Blue and it's gonna really be a world apart. Mongo is a true professional so there was never anything negative coming from him at recording sessions or playing stuff in person. He's a pro, he got up there and tried to swing the hell out of it, you know? But I know he would have preferred some other material. I remember when Mongo first signed with Atlantic Records, that was when the cassette recorders had just come out and Jerry Wexler was a key man, he gave Mongo a new Sony cassette player with two detachable speakers and two or three cassettes full of songs that had been R & B vocal hits for Atlantic. He told Mongo "Here's all this material, choose an album out of that." Jerry Wexler, I guess you're gonna hear it now for the first time, but when Jerry gave Mongo those tapes Mongo called me in and he said "Here, you choose it." It was sort of like "Well, I have to do this because I want to keep the record company happy but I really don't want to spend the time to sit down and listen to all of these songs and figure out which one is gonna be best, Marty knows."
DC: You became Mongo's musical director after the departure of Pat Patrick. What was your role?
MS: Originally it was conducting rehearsals, counting off the tempo at the beginning of each song, getting together with Mongo before the set discussing what to play during the next set, rounding up musicians to make sure everyone's on time to do the set. At that time a lot of the gigs were in jazz clubs and the first song of the set Mongo did not play, it was the rhythm section and horns. That would be strictly jazz. At the end of that whoever was the featured horn player or if it would be two or three then it would be me as musical director, would then introduce the musicians in the band and then say "And now let's hear it for Mongo Santamaría," he would come up and play. So the musical director would have to arrange who's gonna play and when.
DC: You're listed on a number of Mongo's records as conductor even after you had stepped down as musical director. How did this evolve?
MS: When I was playing with Mongo the band was working so much that you didn't need a conductor because the band would be playing the songs on the gigs so that by the time it came into the recording studio it was like playing a set. I was usually the one who gave the cues on the bandstand, Mongo would be the one on certain kinds of songs to look at me. During his solos and even sometimes if the other guys were playing if he felt that it was time to go to the next part he would give me a little look, then I would give a cue. After I had left the band whoever was the musical director would give those cues. But I was the one who would be at the rehearsal that would go over the songs and give the cues, then the guys would play them on the road and when it came time to record I would still be in the studio doing the same thing. And to this day whenever he records he wants me there to rehearse the band, conduct the rehearsal and conduct at the recording session. He's also had me at the mixes whenever it was possible.
DC: You've mentioned to me that you stopped playing the trumpet due to frustration with an incorrect playing technique. When you say "incorrect playing," is that basically incorrect embouchure?
MS: Right.
DC: Incorrect in terms of where it was placed on the lips?
MS: Well, not really because there are some great players who play a little bit to one side or the other, it doesn't have to be exactly in the middle. But no matter where you play on your chops you're supposed to push hard, you're supposed to have the lips vibrate. I was playing all the way on the side and the angle of the horn was very far down, which meant that the bottom lip was just barely touching, just acting as a guide. All the pressure was up on the top lip, as I'd go into the high register I would press harder. And what happens is that at the beginning of the evening I would have a decent sound and decent range and slowly and by the end of the gig I wasn't getting the tone that I wanted, I definitely didn't have the range that a trumpet player should have and there was no way of practicing using that embouchure to make it better.
DC: But how is it that you were playing to the side?
MS: When I was beginning on trumpet my family was vacationing in Rockaway Beach, I was jumping off the boardwalk and I landed one time in the wrong position and my front teeth hit my knee, they got very loose. When I came back to school I was playing with the mouthpiece over to the side. Now the teacher wasn't a trumpet player, he was a tenor saxophone player and I guess I had a lot of natural musical ability so that I was making progress rapidly - I mean he would give me a lesson, I would come back the next week and play the hell out
of it. So I'm sure he looked at the embouchure and said "Oh, it doesn't look right but gee, the kid is doin' so good I don't want him to stop it." So I just built upon that foundation.
DC: You were able to support yourself by working as an arranger as you phased out your playing. Did you ever study arranging privately or work through any of the known methods such as the Schillinger System?
MS: No, it was all ask a lot of questions, experiment. I was very, very lucky because Mongo wanted his music to come from within the band, many of us contributed numbers. A lot of the things that I wrote were being played on the road and recorded and I got to hear how it comes out played by good musicians. I noticed right away that there were certain things that sounded better than I thought they would and others that didn't sound as good as I thought they would and I would just re-examine what I had written and try to find out why it sounded good when I didn't expect it and why it didn't. And even to this day I have the same attitude, if I hear someone sit at a piano and play something that I like the sound of but I'm not actually sure exactly what it is I'm not embarrassed to walk up and ask "Show me what you did there." They'll show it and I'll just take a piece of paper and a pencil, draw a five line staff quickly, write down what it was, take it home, study it. I've also bought books of lead sheets of jazz players and examined how they notate their chords and studied transcriptions of solos. But no, I've never studied formally.
DC: Have you been able to make any inroads in terms of writing for the commercial media, jingles and things like that?
MS: For about five, six years I was doing arranging for jingles that were produced by one of the real gentlemen in the business, a fellow named Bernie Drayton. Bernie had accounts with big companies, Seven Up, Amtrack, things like that and he explained to them that a lot of their customers were Hispanic and it's demeaning that in order to advertise to them they would just take the music track that was done for the American jingle and overdub Spanish language voices singing and talking. He said "If you're gonna be advertising for young people you're gonna do rock music, if you're gonna advertise for the West Coast/Texas/Mexico thing you're gonna do that. Why not get arrangers who do the arrangements for the salsa bands and have them do some of the jingles?" For several years I did those kind of things which were not the typical jingle, the purpose was to try to make it swing. When I say "typical jingle" I mean the kind where the music isn't very important, it's kind of corny and in the background, whereas the ones I did with Bernie Drayton, the music was an important part of it.
DC: How much input have you had on who gets hired to play?
MS: In a lot of cases, with Willie Colón, with Mongo, with a lot of other different people I did have input, I got some really interesting people on jobs that they might not have ever gone to. On one of Willie Colón's recordings I got a drummer named Alphonse Mouzon who's a terrific jazz drummer, he was playing with McCoy Tyner at the time and Willie needed some overdubs on traps and I got him. One time Bernie Drayton said to me point-blank "We have some Latin players that we've used whenever we have a Latin-style thing in the American field, we've used people like Victor Paz. Who else would you recommend?" Well, sometimes I would put a band together where the three trumpets would be Victor Paz and "Bomberito" Zarzuela and Tony Cofresí and Barry Rogers and Sam Burtis on trombone, Jorge Dalto on piano, Sal Cuevas on bass, Nicky Marrero or Jimmy Delgado on timbales. I even got Mongo to do one, Angel Allende used to play congas and you know, guys like that doing jingles was an interesting thing. Naturally when there's an established band, where it's the same guys who do the gigs and do the recordings then there's not that but a lot of the others ones that are more produced I can offer suggestions.
DC: Let's talk some more about your relationships as an arranger with bandleaders. For example, Willie Colón.
MS: When I first started with him he was recording for Fania. Gerry Masucci called me and said that he liked Willie's arrangements but that it took him a long time to do them. He wanted to hire me to get together with Willie, Willie will tell me "This is what I want for the bass, this is what I want for the piano, you notate it." So what happened is that the first two arrangements that we did together were exactly like that, he knew exactly what he wanted and I merely transcribed his ideas onto music paper. In the third arrangement it got to a certain point where he wasn't sure and I offered some suggestions and he liked it. And from then on it would start that way, that he had a concept of the introduction and what he wanted behind the melody and after the melody and whenever I made a suggestion, "How about changing this chord, how about doing it this way?," Willie is the kind of a guy who has no ego problem as far as that was concerned. And as I would suggest something if it were something that he liked the sound of but didn't know it reminded me of the way I used to be - he would say "Show me what that is" and I'd show him on the keyboard. He's gotten so busy that he's gotten away from arranging and I've been trying to convince him to do it because he's really good at it. The album that he did that was called "Willie Solo," he did some writing for a larger orchestra and people come to me sometimes and say "Man, I know that was you that wrote those string parts." But it was all Willie.
DC: Do you have this kind of relationship with anyone else?
MS: Not that often, I used to also work that way with Rubn Blades. Both of them would do their homework, the material would have been thought out. They would send me a tape that would start off with them speaking to me, "Hi, Marty, hope everything's goin' OK, here's the song." I always would ask them for a basic translation, I'd get an idea of what it was about 'cause I don't speak the language. They would say "Here's an idea I have for the introduction" and would play it and then would sing the song with some chords behind them and then offer suggestions, that "maybe when it goes from here do something like this and maybe put a solo on top, I'm not sure whether it should be a trombone solo" or something like that. I would take all of that and before I start doing the arrangement would get in touch with them again and say "Well, here's what I thought, how about this?" And it always came out good, I've been happy with all of the things that I've done for Willie and Rubn because it was very precise what they wanted - the better idea I can get of what they want, the easier it makes it, you know? But besides them it's pretty much they just give it to me, let me do whatever I want.
Marty Sheller's most recently released work can be heard on Steve Turre's eponymous new Verve album; his arrangement of Ayer lo vi llorar beautifully frames the still-vibrant voice of Graciela. Fans of Horace Silver's music (Marty Sheller has always been a big one himself) can look forward to some Sheller arrangements on Silver Serenade , an upcoming Timeless/Keystone disc featuring the Bronx Horns.

Man Accused of Stalking County Commissioner Melony Bell
Published: Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 12:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 1, 2013 at 3:32 a.m.
BARTOW | A Winter Haven man has been charged with stalking County Commissioner Melony Bell by calling her numerous times at her home to complain about Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, according to an arrest report.
Jeffrey R. Hancock, 54, faces one count of aggravated stalking, a third-degree felony punishable by up to five years in prison.
An arrest report from the Polk County Sheriff's Office states that Hancock called Bell at her home about eight times on Jan. 26, and left three voice mails with "an aggressive tone."
Hancock previously had been warned on more than one occasion not to call Bell at her home, the report states.
Hancock "rambled" during the messages to Bell about his criticism of Polk County's sheriff, the report states.
Hancock is known to frequently address the County Commission with criticism about Judd. Hancock has accused the Sheriff's Office of improperly arresting his mother for animal cruelty.
This isn't the first time Hancock has been arrested after contacting a county commissioner.
He was arrested in August 2011 on charges of misrepresenting himself as an attorney.
A sheriff's detective listened to a telephone message left on County Commissioner Ed Smith's answering machine on Aug. 17, 2011, and read a letter received by the State Attorney's Office, according to a complaint affidavit.
Hancock referred to himself as "counselor at law" in the letter and telephone call, the affidavit states.
Court records show Hancock is set to go to trial in April on the charge of misrepresenting himself as an attorney.
He had been released on bail in that case. However, a judge ruled he should now remain in jail without bail because his arrest on Jan. 31 on the aggravated stalking charge violated the terms of his pretrial release, court records show.

The pet people of Tahoe came together for an annual ritual last Saturday. They brought their children, human and not. Dogs were in the majority. but there were dogs and cats together as well as dogs and cats alone. The horse didn't make it because of threatening weather. A K-9 officer and his handler came by for some exposure training. On duty, he wasn't allowed to visit Santa Paws, but he probably wished he could have dropped off his wish list.
There were appearances by some new celebrities of the 2013 Tahoe Pets Calendar, veteran Tahoe pet photo families and a few newbies. Most took Santa Paws in stride. One human was scared for a brief moment when the assumed large stuffed dog in the Santa suit waved. Treats and toys worked for the hesitant furry set until a labrador retriever dug in, but - being a lab - he finally couldn't resist the tennis ball lure into Santa's photo studio. Reluctant humans were cajoled into donning Santa hats, antlers, a red boa and then smiling broadly into the camera. For a few moments, the time in the spotlight with both furry and hairless family took precedence over the football game broadcasts and holiday sales. Even waiting in turn was a positive experience.
One human observed "Here are all these dogs who don't know each other and everyone is getting along fine. They're better than people together. I just can't get over it." It wasn't all smooth of course. There were a couple of accidents that quickly got wiped up and sanitized. First timers had to be given their time and space to understand that Santa Paws was a good thing. However with Photo Elves on alert, Santa Paws had no costume malfunctions and all became willing to sit in his lap or close by his side. So what's the secret to all this conviviality?
When pet people gather, they unabashedly expose their feelings about the human-animal bond. Shelter rescue, neighborhood stray, family duty inheritance, or high cost pure bred partner, these pets and people spend quality time together and it shows. Shy folks gain confidence in the company of their polite pets. Outgoing folks purposefully nurture social pets who can come along comfortably even in an energized setting. There's a feeling of trust in the air.
All it takes is the basics: sit, stay, come, down, heel and socialization. Too many pets never have the opportunity to share in a gathering because they are not trained in the simple behaviors which make pets welcome and their people willing. Bad behavior - most often just normal untrained pet behavior - is at the top of the list of why pets are turned in to shelters or simply abandoned. When witnessing the joy of the whole family together, pets and kids with limits and manners, it's distressing to know that but for a bit of time and attention, all pets and people could enjoy each other that way.
It's never too early or too late to teach a pet manners (or tricks). A great place to start is with Dr. Ian Dunbar, the animal behaviorist-veterinarian, international television host, author, and founder of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. His website, www.dogstardaily.com/free-downloads, is chock-full of free training articles and the complete, straightforward, do-it-yourself manuals, "Before You Get Your Puppy" and "After You Get Your Puppy." His life is a mission to save dogs from being abandoned for preventable or misunderstood behaviors. Dunbar works tirelessly to educate humans to reap the rewards of pet companionship. Professional trainers look to Dr. Dunbar for insight and he credits them openly for helping to promote positive training methods, fun and games for people with their pets, and the 180 degree turnaround - undeniably in process - from pet dominance/bullying to pet leadership/partnership with mutual understanding and respect.
More and more today, pets are asked to share with their humans almost every possible life experience at home and away. It is an evolved relationship from working animal to non human soul mate. It is the evolution of man as well as beast.

SANTA CLARA -- Eddie DeBartolo, Charles Haley and Bryant Young will serve as the 49ers' honorary captains for Sunday's coin toss before the NFC Championship Game at Atlanta.
DeBartolo, the 49ers' owner during their five Super Bowl wins, is a finalist for this year's Pro Football Hall of Fame class, as is Haley, who won the first two of his five Super Bowl rings while on the 49ers' back-to-back championship teams in the 1988-89 seasons.
Young spent his entire 14-year career with the 49ers before retiring five years ago. He was the NFL Rookie of the Year after getting selected seventh overall in 1994.
