City Opera Owes Millions to Creditors: Bankruptcy Filing
By Jennifer Maloney and Stephanie Gleason
New York City Opera owes millions of dollars to a range of creditors, including the New York City Ballet, the operator of its former theater at Lincoln Center, and a museum where it had planned to perform, according to a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition it filed Thursday.
The 70-year-old company, which is folding after a failed emergency fundraising campaign, asked for court approval to refund $323,000 to ticket holders for canceled performances.
"Absent a drastic change in circumstances, another cultural or educational institution being willing to partner with or adopt NYC Opera, or a miraculous increase in donations, NYC Opera will be forced to use the chapter 11 process to conduct an orderly wind-down of its operations," George Steel, the company's general manager and artistic director, said in the filing.
In the petition, the company proposed to transfer its thrift shop to a not-for-profit organization with a similar mission. City Opera has been in discussions with Opera America, a New York-based service group for opera companies, about selling the shop, the two groups said.
The opera's historical archives and music library – which include recordings, playbills and musical scores with conductors' markings – are being moved to the Columbia University Library's Rare Book and Manuscript Division for safekeeping. The collection, damaged by floodwater during superstorm Sandy, will be restored with a grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, according to the filing. Ownership of the collection could be transferred to Columbia if the court and the state attorney general approve.
Employees nonessential to the company's operations were laid off on Sept. 30. The company requested court approval to pay them up to $12,475 each in severance.
The company listed New York City Ballet as one of its largest unsecured creditors, with a $1.6 million debt to the ballet, according to the filing.
City Opera shared the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center with New York City Ballet until the opera company made the controversial decision in 2011 to leave the theater and perform in venues around the city. City Opera spokeswoman Risa B. Heller said the ballet claims it is owed $1.6 million because City Opera broke its lease. The opera company disputes the claim, she said. The ballet did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The opera also owes $793,000 to the organization that operates the Koch theater, the City Center of Music and Drama, according to the filing. City Center of Music and Drama didn't respond to a request for comment.
City Opera listed $5.6 million in liabilities and $7.7 million in total assets, both as of June 30, including $4.7 million in investments and $1.3 million in donor pledges that had not yet been received. The company does not expect to receive outstanding donor pledges, Ms. Heller said. The company had a liability of $4 million in pension and other post-employment obligations.
Other creditors include the company's landlord, owed $38,000 for office space on Broad Street; and a violist, owed $33,000 for a retirement benefit.
City Opera owes $43,000 to El Museo Del Barrio for the balance of the rental fee for a production of "Endimione" that had been planned for February, Ms. Heller said. The museum didn't respond to a request for comment.
City Opera, founded in 1943, was dubbed "the people's opera" by Mayor Fiorello La Guardia. It launched the careers of singers such as Beverly Sills and Plácido Domingo. Its financial problems came to a head in August amid preparations for its U.S. premiere of "Anna Nicole," a co-production with the Brooklyn Academy of Music. City Opera's board cobbled together the cash to cover its $1.3 million share, and made a last-ditch attempt to raise $7 million by the end of September. That bid failed.

Four years after founding a website where sports fans could talk about their favorite teams, four Menlo School graduates have sold the product, Bleacher Report, for a reported $175 million.
Turner Broadcasting, a subsidiary of Time Warner, on Monday announced that it had purchased the San Francisco-based website for an undisclosed amount. Bloomberg News and Reuters cited unnamed sources in reporting that the price was less than $200 million, and The Wall Street Journal reported the price as "about $175 million."
Requests for comment from the company, its biggest venture capital investor and Turner officials were not returned.
Bleacher Report was launched by four 20-somethings eager to blog about their favorite sports teams and invite others to do the same. The site became a hit thanks to a legion of contributors willing to write about sports for free.
"Most of our contributors aren't professional journalists. They're lawyers by day, Giants fans by night," Chief Executive Brian Grey told this newspaper in an interview last year.
The co-founders -- Dave Finocchio, Bryan Goldberg, Dave Nemetz and Zander Freund -- have worked to professionalize the site in the past few years, pulling in at least $39 million worth of venture capital and hiring executives from larger, more established properties. Grey left Fox Interactive to become CEO.
Bleacher Report ranked ninth in the June comScore rankings of U.S. online sports sites, with 10.1 million unique visitors. Turner Sports Digital, which includes sites such as NBA.com and NASCAR.com, was sixth, with 14.8 million visitors.
Together, the two properties would leap to fourth in comScore's traffic rankings, well ahead of USA Today.
The Sports Business Journal also noted that the reported $175 million purchase price would easily outpace the record $98 million Yahoo (YHOO) paid in 2007 for Rivals.com.
But armchair quarterbacks hoping to parlay their hobbies into millions might want to take a breath, warned Paul Moriarty, an Internet security consultant in San Jose who on the side runs a fan email list and website devoted to the Boston Celtics.
"Ideas are a dime a dozen -- it's the execution," he said. "Having just gone through a failed Silicon Valley startup, it's much harder than it looks."
Hoping to quell criticism of Bleacher Report as a "content farm" with poorly written blog posts, Grey hired a writing coach for contributors, as well as a small group of professional writers.
But, he said in Monday's news release, "Bleacher Report was created to put fans first, and we are excited to integrate our innovative content publishing model" with Turner's portfolio.
The company will remain in San Francisco, according to Monday's announcement. Finocchio, who rounded up his former high school cohorts to start the site, will remain as chief content officer and become a vice president for Turner Sports.
The deal gives Turner Sports a stronger presence in Internet sports journalism, after the company last year handed control of Golf.com and Sports Illustrated's SI.com back to its parent company, Time Warner.
"Bleacher Report is a strategic acquisition that further enhances Turner's portfolio of sports offerings," David Levy, president of sales and sports of Turner Broadcasting, said in the release. He added that the deal "reflects our continuing commitment to bring fans greater content across all screens."

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
What is Seasonal Affective Disorder?
SAD is a type of depression that usually occurs during the fall and winter months when there is less daylight.
What are the causes of SAD?
- The causes of SAD are not known, but genetics and age may be a factor.
- There are a couple of theories about the causes of SAD:
- Abnormalities in how the body manages its internal biological clock. The circadian rhythm may not be inline with the 24 hour circadian cycle.
- The role of Melatonin, which is a hormone that helps control body temperature, hormone secretion and sleep. It is produced in a specific brain area during hours of darkness. For those with SAD, Melatonin is produced more during low-light months, which can lead to symptoms of depression.
Are there any symptoms of SAD?
- The following are common symptoms of SAD:
- Mood changes: increased sadness, irritability, and anxiety
- Appetite changes: increased appetite and cravings for carbohydrates and sweets
- Weight gain
- Sleep and activity changes: increased sleep duration, lower quality of rest, and daytime fatigue
- Menstrual difficulties
What treatment is available for SAD?
- The most common treatments of SAD are light therapy, medications, and psychotherapy
What is Light Therapy?
- Light therapy is a common treatment for SAD which consists of the person sitting in front of a light box. The light box gives off a type and intensity of light that is not found in normal household lighting. The light box also mimics outdoor light.
- Light therapy, when used consistently, causes biochemical changes in the brain that can lift mood and relieve symptoms of SAD. It can suppress the brain's production of Melatonin to regulate the body's internal clock.
How do you use Light Therapy?
- To increase the effectiveness of therapy, the light must enter your eyes indirectly, not directly.
- The three key elements of light therapy are intensity, duration, and timing
- Intensity: The light's intensity is 10000 lux
- Duration: Duration of each session is approximately 30 minutes
- Timing: Light therapy is most effective in the morning
What are the benefits of Light Therapy?
- Alternative to medications, such as antidepressants
- Supplement to psychotherapy
- Light box requires no prescription. (Available in Counseling And Psychological Services)
- Can use while reading, watching TV, working out, etc.
- Can start to feel better within a few days or few weeks
Are there any drawbacks of Light Therapy?
- Light therapy, on a rare occasion, may trigger episodes of mania in people with bipolar disorder. There have also been reports of thoughts of suicide after treatment for those with severe depression.
- Light therapy alone may not be fully effective.
- Light therapy is not officially approved by the FDA as treatment of SAD due to the lack of sufficient evidence.
What are the side effects of Light therapy?
- The following are some reported side effects of Light therapy, but they are fairly uncommon.
- Eyestrain
- Irritability
- Headache
- Fatigue
- Agitation
- Dry Mouth
- Nausea
- Sleep Disruptions
- Insomnia
- To reduce side effects:
- Reduce treatment time
- Move farther away from the light box
- Take breaks during long sessions
- Change the time of day light therapy is used
When should someone NOT use Light Therapy?
- Skin is sensitive to light
- You take medications that react with sunlight
- You have an eye condition that makes your eyes vulnerable to light damage

Read an Excerpt
"Cover the family jewels, gentlemen," Lilah Anderson called into the men's locker room at St. Mary's Hospital. "Female coming through."
High heels clicking on tile, Lilah charged past a male nurse yanking on scrubs and an anesthesiologist wrestling with a too-small towel, barely registering the flash of male flank here, masculine chest there. Smothered coughs and chuckles echoed around her in the steamy tiled area, but she remained undeterred.
Completely focused on locating him.
No one dared stop her on her way past benches and lockers. As chief administrator of Tacoma's leading surgical facility, she could have any of them fired faster than someone could say "Who dropped the soap?"
Her only problem? A particularly stubborn employee who seemed determined to avoid her every attempt to speak with him over the past couple of weeks. Therefore, she'd chosen the one place she could be certain of having Dr. Carlos Medina's complete attentiona public shower.
The stall tactics would end here and now. And speaking of stalls
Lilah stepped deeper into the swell of steam puffing around a cream-colored plastic curtain. His secretary, Wanda, had warned that he couldn't be reached since he was washing up after a lengthy surgery. He would be exhausted and cranky.
Not deterred in the least, Lilah saw this as the perfect opportunity she'd been seeking to corner him. She'd grown up with two brothers, and she would have been left out of everything if she didn't occasionally invade their male inner sanctums. She eyed the line of showers.
Three of the five were in use. The first sported a shadowy, short and round male figure. Not Carlos.
From the second, a balding head peeked around the industrial curtain with shocked green eyes. Also not her surgeon in question.
She nodded to the head of pediatrics. "Good afternoon, Jim."
Jim ducked back into his stall, which left her to focus on the third tiled cubicle. She marched forward, heels tapping almost as fast as her heart.
Stopping, she planted her feet and checked first. Through the plastic folds, she studied the lean outline standing under the spray, scrubbing his hands over his head. Without even pulling aside the curtain, she knew that body well, intimately so.
She'd found him, Carlos Medinadoctor, lover and, as if the guy didn't already have enough going for him, also the eldest son of a former European monarch. His princely pedigree, however, didn't impress her. Long before she knew about his royal roots, she'd been drawn to his brilliance, his compassion for his patients..
And a backside that looked damn fine in scrubs. Or wearing nothing at all. Definitely not what she needed to think about right now.
Lilah gathered her nerve as firmly as she clenched the curtain and swept it aside, metal rings clink, clink, clinking along the rod.
A wall of steam rolled out, momentarily clouding her vision until the mist dispersed and exposed an eyeful of mouthwateringly magnificent man. Water sluiced down Carlos's naked body turned sideways, revealing long lean muscles flexing and bunching. And heaven help her, she had a perfect view of the curve of his taut butt.
Beads of moisture clung to his bronzed skin, arms and legs sprinkled with dark hair. No tan lines marked him since he spent most of his time indoors either in surgery or asleep. But his natural olive coloring gave him an allover tanned look, as if he'd bared himself unabashedly to the sun.
As he turned his head toward her in a slow, deliberate move, not even a whisper of surprise showed on Carlos's face. His eyes shone nearly black heavy lidded darkly enigmatic. She couldn't suppress a shiver of desire as his intense gaze held hers. Her stomach knotted with a traitorous ache that could only serve to distract her from her mission today.
He raised one thick eyebrow, slashing upward into his forehead. "Yes?"
His subtle Spanish accent saturated the lone syllable like the steam in the air, so hot she felt the urge to ditch the jacket on her power suit.
In the next stall, water shut off in a hurry as the head of pediatrics made a hasty departure from the locker room. Others lingered, backs studiously turned as they retrieved clothing.
Lilah tugged her jacket more firmly in place. "I need to talk to you."
"A telephone conversation would have saved my coworkers some embarrassment." He spoke softly as always, never raising his voice as if he knew innately that people would hang on his every word.
"What I have to say isn't for an impersonal call." And wasn't that the understatement of the year? What she needed to tell him also wasn't for the curious ears behind her, but she would have Carlos alone soon.
All alone?
Static-like awareness popped along her nerves until the hair on her arms rose. Was that an answering spark lighting his dark eyes? Then he blinked away any hint of emotion.
"It does not get much more personal than this, boss lady." He turned off the shower. "Could you pass me that towel?"
She snagged the white cotton draped on a hook. The hospital name and logo were stamped along the bottom. She pitched the towel to him rather than risk an accidental touch. As he looped it around his waist, she couldn't resist staring for a stolen second.
Water soaked his hair even blacker, shiny and swept back from his face. Every hard and hunky angle of his aristocratic cheekbones and nose was revealed. Dark brows slashed over brown eyes that rarely carried humor, but turned lava lush when he made love to her.
Pivoting, his back to her for the first time, he snagged his shampoo. Her eyes quickly left his slim hips and taut butt, drawn more to the scars along his lower back. In the four years she'd known him, he'd chalked up his permanent limp to a teenage riding accident. The one time she'd pressed him, the first time she'd seen those scars, he'd brushed aside further questions with distracting kisses along her bare skin.
While she was a lawyer and not a doctor, her tenure working at the hospitaland flat-out common senseclued her in that he'd suffered a major physical trauma.
Toiletries bag tucked under his arm, he leaned toward her. His shoulders, then his eyes, drew her in until the rest of the space faded away. She swallowed hard.
He stared back, unblinking, unflinching. "Let's make this quick."
"Your charm never ceases to impress me."
"If you're looking for charm, you hired the wrong man four years ago." He'd been thirty-six then to her thirty-one, a lifetime ago. "I've spent most of the day repairing the spine of a seven-year-old Afghani girl injured by a roadside bomb. I'm beat."
Unwanted sympathy whispered through her. Of course he was exhausted from the drawn-out, tragic surgery. Even when he caved to his pride and used a chair during extended operations, the toll it took on him was always evident. But she couldn't afford to weaken now.
They'd been friends for years only to have him turn into a cold jackass because of an impulsive one-night stand together after a Christmas fundraiser. It wasn't like she'd dropped a wedding planner in his lap five seconds after the third orgasm waned.
Yep, three. Her toes curled inside her pumps at just the memory of each shimmering release.
The sex had been amazing. Beyond amazing actually, and after that impulsive hookup, she'd envisioned them transitioning into a relationship of friends with kick-ass benefits. A nerve-tingling, safe option. But he'd pulled away as fast as he'd pulled on his pants the next morning. He was cold, withdrawn and painfully polite.
But she wasn't backing down. "I don't have the time for niceties. I'm just here to say my piece. So grab some clothes and let's talk."
He ducked his head until his voice heated her ear. "You're not the type to create a scene. Let's set up a time to talk when you're calmer. This is already awkward enough."
Her nose twitched at his fresh-washed scent. Yes, she'd chosen an unconventional route for her confrontation, but Carlos Medina's tenaciousstubbornreputation was legendary. She felt confident the hospital board would cut her a little slack for her scene. And if they didn't? Then so be it. Sometimes a woman had to make a stand.
This was her time. She couldn't afford to wait much longer.
"I'm not setting up an appointment. I'm not delaying this conversation." She lowered her voice, although from the sound of retreating footsteps behind her there must not be many people left. "We talk. Today. The only matter up for discussion is whether we chat right here in front of everyone or if we speak in an office. And believe me, if we stay here, it's going to get a lot more awkward very quickly."
Carlos cocked an eyebrow.
From behind her, a cleared throat echoed, or a stifled laugh perhaps. She looked up at Carlos, suddenly painfully aware of just how close they stood to each other with nothing but a towel covering his oh-so-generous family jewels.
Whispering, she struggled not to back awayor move closer still. Carlos had ignored her for nearly three months, hurtful and flat-out insulting given their friendship. Or rather, their prior friendship.
One way or another, she would get a reaction from him. "It's not like I haven't seen you before. In fact, I recall in great"
"Enough," he silenced her with a word.
"The almighty Medina prince has spoken," she mocked, backing a step to snag surgical scrubs from the top of a stack. "Get dressed. I'll wait."
She thrust the folded green set his way and turned away. A trio of half-dressed men faced her, their jaws slack and eyes wide. The magnitude of the scene she'd caused hit her full on for the first time. She resisted the urge to squirm.
This was too important to show any vulnerability. She just hoped she could maintain enough distance to get through the conversation during their first time alone together in so long. She pressed her fingers to her lips, still unable to forget the rush of passion from their first impetuous kiss, a clench that had led to so much more with lasting consequences.
Once Carlos put on his clothes and they moved to another room, he would learn the truth she'd only just begun to accept herself. A truth she could no longer avoid.
Dr. Carlos Medina was a little over six months away from becoming a princely papa.
Carlos Medina was about six seconds away from losing his temper, something he never, never allowed to happen.
Of course, he was the person who needed chewing out for foolishly allowing himself to sleep with Lilah nearly three months ago. He'd wrecked a top-notch working relationship.
Sidestepping a janitor slopping an ammonia-saturated mop over the floor, Carlos followed her down the otherwise empty hospital walkway, wearing fresh surgical scrubs, tennis shoes and ten tons of frustration. Fluorescent lights overhead lined the path down the corridor. Windows flanked either side. Murky late day sun fought to pierce the dreary drizzle outdoors. But his focus was locked in on the woman two steps ahead of him on the way to his office.
His office. Not hers. His territory.
She may have tipped the controls in her favor with the shower confrontation, but he wasn't giving ground again. His office would also provide guaranteed privacy. Once his Medina name had been exposed, the hospital had been flooded with paparazzi. He'd feared he might have to resign his position in order to ensure the safety of his patients.
But he'd underestimated Lilah.
She'd slapped restraining orders and injunctions on the press in a flash. She'd increased security at the hospital. And she'd moved his office to the farthest corner of the building. Overzealous paparazzi would have to run a gauntlet of two layers of security and a half-dozen heavily populated nurses' stations before reaching his newly relocated inner sanctum. No one in the press had succeeded to date.
Yes, he'd underestimated her then, something he wouldn't do now. He needed every edge he could muster around this woman when all he could think about was her bold entrance into his shower, her gaze raking over his body as if she wouldn't mind a touch. A taste. Maybe even a bite. Damn, but he hadn't expected to see her again without the defense of even a pair of boxers.
The understated twitch of her hips encased in a black power suit held his gaze far longer than any simple passing interest. His eyes glided up the rigid brace of her spine to the vulnerable curve of her neck, exposed with her auburn hair swept into a tight twist. One stubborn curl escaped to caress her ear the way he burned to do even now when he was angry as hell with her.
He'd wanted her for years, but knew she was the one woman he had to keep his hands well off. She was too insightful, too good of a friend and one who mirrored his workaholic ways. Anything more than a professional friendship would be disastrous. For a man who'd had precious few friends in his life, he'd valued the unexpected camaraderie he'd found with Lilah.
Clearing the hall and entering his reception area, he tore his eyes away from the enticing curve of her butt and nodded to his secretary, an efficient woman with photos of her twelve grandchildren neatly lined up on her desk. "Hold my calls, Wanda, unless it's about the Afghani girl in recovery."
His back twinged with a reminder of just how long he'd spent cleaning up bone fragments along the child's spine, of working to relieve pressure, doing all he could to ensure she had as much use of her arms as possible even though she would almost certainly never walk again. Entering his office, he braced a hand on the door frame, then the sofa, using walls and furniture to steady himself at the end of a long day. His uneven gait contrasted with the efficient click of Lilah's killer red heels.
Skimming her fingers along a row of leather-bound medical journals, she stopped in front of a framed oil painting by Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida, a gift from his middle brother, Duarte. The canvas came from Bastida's Sad Inheritance preparatory pieces, a painting of crippled children bathing in healing waters.
No matter how much distance Carlos put between himself and his homeland, influences from his heritage called to him. He couldn't escape the reality of being the oldest son of deposed King Enrique Medina from San Rinaldo, a small island country off the coast of Spain. He couldn't ignore or forget how his father had fled with his family, relocating to live anonymously off the coast of Florida for decades.
Only recently had the press picked up the Medina trail. Carlos and his two brothers, all now adults, lived in different locations across the United States. Until four months ago, they'd even managed to fly under the radar with assumed names.
For most of his adult life he'd been known as Carlos Santiago. Yet in the stroke of a media pen's expose, it became impossible for people to think of him as anything other than Carlos Medina, heir to a defunct monarchy.

This iReport is part of an assignment:
Hairdos of the past
20's 30's and 40's Hair Styles Finger Waves, Bob's to Longer Softer Waves and Curls
"They were inspired by movie stars and celebrities, especially the flapper era, silent movie and then the softer more feminine styles of the the 30s and 40s," she says.
Ryn likes the long, soft curl look the best, but she says she was usually talked into whatever the trend was at the time by her hair-styling aunts." I have been in a time warp since the 60s -- mostly with long hair, parted in the middle," she says. "My aunt fusses all the time that I need to cut my hair."
- PM91, CNN iReport producer
I found some very old photos of my Mother, Grandmother Aunt ,Great Aunt and my Great Grandmother . From what I see surfing the net their hair styles were very in vogue for the time.
Some photos date back to the mid to late 20's, 30's and 40's. My Great Aunt
( my Grandmother's sister) and my Aunt (my Mother's sister) both were hair stylist's. My Great Aunt owned her own Beauty Shop for as long as I can remember from probably the 40's, until shortly before her passing in the late 80's.
My Mother's sister worked in two of the top Beauty Salons in Knoxville, Tennessee.
My Great Grandmother had very long hair and wore it braided and twisted into a bun low on the back of her head. This was very common for the for the country and mountain women. This photo of My Great Grandma was in the late 40's. She was born and raised in the Smokey Mountains.
Image 2 and 3
My Grandmother and her Sister circa early mid 20' to early 30's .
Hairstyles were shorter in the 1920's. Seemed to be a time of change from the longer Victorian styles The finger wave and the Bob were all the rage. The 30's saw a longer , softer more feminine look..
Image 4
My Mother with her Baby Sister( later to become a hair stylist) circa mid 1930's Finger waves still very much in.
Image 5
My Grandmother holding my Mom and my Grandfather
late 20's. What a handsome family and my Grandpa had it going on!
Image 6
Again my Grandmother and my Great Aunt ( she owned her own beauty shop) from the 40's until the late 80's.
I think the hair styles were still very feminine, longer with tight or loose curls. Maybe because of the war and the thoughts they had to look nice for returning soldiers.
I did not take these photos. I was not around yet.
I do own the images now.

CHARGERS: Scouting report vs. Denver Broncos
Kickoff: 5:15 p.m. Sunday at Qualcomm Stadium.
Series: Broncos lead 53-43-1. The Broncos beat the Chargers 39-38 on Sept. 14 in a wild game in Denver in which the Broncos successfully made a two-point conversion after their final touchdown in the closing seconds.
Player to watch: QB Jay Cutler
The strong-armed Cutler needs 290 passing yards on Sunday to become the first Bronco to reach 4,500 in a season. Cutler already owns the franchise single-season passing record with 4,210 yards. Considering a guy named John Elway (perhaps you remember the name) spent 16 record-smashing seasons in Denver, that's an amazing milestone for Cutler, in his third pro season. With three touchdown passes on Sunday, Cutler also can tie Elway (27, 1997) and Jake Plummer (27, 2004) for most touchdown passes in a season by a Broncos quarterback. Cutler's seven 300-yard passing games this season are the most in Broncos history. Cutler ranks third in the NFL in passing yards. He has completed 351-of-567 passes with 16 interceptions and has a quarterback rating of 87.0. Off the field, it's no secret Cutler and his Chargers counterpart, Philip Rivers, are not the best of pals. Rivers was caught on camera gesturing toward Cutler during the closing minutes of a Chargers blowout victory at Qualcomm last season, and Cutler has said in a television interview he isn't a fan of the way Rivers goes about his business.
WR Brandon Marshall terrorized the Chargers and CB Antonio Cromartie in the teams' first meeting this season. In that game, Marshall caught a franchise single-game record 18 passes (second most in NFL history) and finished with 166 receiving yards. Marshall, who last week was named a Pro Bowl starter for the first time, is two catches from becoming just the second Broncos player in team history with back-to-back 100-catch seasons. His 98 receptions rank third in the NFL behind New England's Wes Welker (109) and Houston's Andre Johnson (105). Eddie Royal, drafted in the second round out of Virginia Tech, leads all rookies in receptions (80), receiving yards (904) and touchdown catches (five). Royal caught both the final touchdown pass and the ensuing two-point conversion toss to beat the Chargers in the teams' early-season meeting. Seven Denver running backs have been placed on injured reserve this season.
Hmmmm. Not much to mention here. The Broncos rank 28th in the NFL in total defense. They're allowing 26.4 points per game, fifth worst in the league. WLB D.J. Williams is averaging 8.4 tackles per game, sixth most in the NFL. Williams has missed five games this season with a knee injury. The Broncos seemingly have shored up a porous run defense. They are allowing an average of 33.8 fewer rushing yards in their last eight games than their first seven outings this season. CB Champ Bailey, an eight-time Pro Bowler, returned to the Denver lineup last week after missing the Broncos' previous seven games with a groin injury. He had a team-high nine tackles, including a sack, and a forced fumble in the loss to the Bills.
In the first meeting between the teams this season, referee Ed Hochuli garnered national attention for a blown call on a Cutler fumble he ruled an incomplete pass. â- The Broncos have allowed just 12 sacks this season, third-lowest in the league. â- The Broncos have won 10 AFC West titles, including three under coach Mike Shanahan. Oakland has the most AFC West titles with 13; the Chargers have won the AFC West eight times.

text: I crocheted a sc washcloth for an intro to crochet class I taught. Not thinking about it beforehand, I am finding that my washcloth needs a little umph - maybe an edging. However, I didn't consider that when crocheting it so I didn't account for X amount of stitches. Is there an edging out there that looks nice and works well with an even number of stitches rather than a particular number of stitches? Thanks in advance. :aww:

John West sets tuna sustainability targets
Sustainable food news – by GreenWise staff
26th July 2011
UK canned seafood manufacturer John West, once branded 'John Worst' by Greenpeace for its poor record on sourcing tuna responsibly, will today launch a five-year plan to source the depleted fish stock more sustainably and will announce the launch of a new range of pole and line sourced tuna products.
In what
John West
is describing as a "step change" in its business, the UK's biggest
brand will unveil a detailed
sustainability plan
, setting out a number of targets over the next five years to increase its pole and line caught tuna and stop its practice of buying catches where
fish aggregating devices
(FADs) are used by the '
purse seine
' tuna industry.
Today's plan is the result of working closely with
and the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF). It will see the company, by 2016, only sourcing tuna caught in deep nets, called purse seine, where no FADs have been used. FADs are floating structures that attract fish. They are widely used by the purse seine tuna industry. FADs have been blamed for reducing tuna and other fish stocks because they increase the catch of juvenile skipjack tuna and, in a practice called by-catch, deplete other species such as juvenile bigeye and yellowfin tuna, sharks and turtles.
"The launch of our genuine transparent and detailed plan for tuna sustainability marks a step change in our business. We will need full support of boat owners, retailers and consumers to meet our goals," said Paul Reenan, managing director, John West. "We know we have a long way to go to meet these challenging targets, but we are committed to continuing to place sustainable fishing practices at the heart of our business."
Setting the bar
Three years ago John West came bottom of a Greenpeace tuna sustainability league table, when the NGO exposed the UK tinned tuna trade, which is the second biggest in the world after the USA. Today, John Sauven, executive director of Greenpeace UK, described the leading tuna brand's sustainability plan as "setting the bar" for the rest of the industry.
"These welcome commitments from John West complete the ground-breaking shifts seen in the UK since Greenpeace's tinned tuna campaign launched in January," said Sauven. "Historic changes have taken place in the UK, the world's second largest consumer of tuna. The time is ripe for companies worldwide to deliver sustainable tuna in a way that protects tuna stocks and our oceans."
Sustainability plan
The John West tuna sustainability plan encompasses a number of initiatives and starts immediately. Under it, John West has committed to sourcing 25 per cent of its UK tuna sales from pole and line by the end of 2012, increasing to 35 per cent by 2013 and 50 per cent by 2014. As an interim measure, from 2013, John West says it will only buy tuna purse seined on FADs where the boats are able to provide year-on-year best practice qualified audits of by-catch levels, and have agreed to adopt measures to ensure 50 per cent by-catch reduction by 2014. By 2016, John West has pledged to source 100 per cent of its UK tuna sales from properly audited pole and line and/or FAD-free purse seine by the end of 2016.
New range
As part of the same programme, from September 2011, John West will roll out across supermarkets nationwide a new range of pole and line sourced tuna chunks.
The initial John West pole and line range will comprise of 185 grams tinned tuna chunks and 3x80g tinned tuna chunk packs.
John West will also today announce the launch a range of salmon, mackerel and sardines, certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC).

After receiving support from throughout the Bay Area, the family of a missing nursing student is asking the FBI to take a lead role in the investigation.
Michelle Le, of Union City, disappeared May 27 while on a break from Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Hayward. A spokeswoman for Le's family criticized the police in a statement Sunday and urged the FBI to step up its participation in the case.
"Our family believes the Hayward Police Department is not adequately staffed and do not have enough personnel to work on a missing person case," said Krystine Dinh, in the family's statement. "We have been assured they have personnel working 'around the clock,' yet only six personnel are assigned to the team, and of those, three recently went on vacation."
She said Le's apartment was searched four days after she was reported missing. In addition, Dinh was told evidence collected from Le's car would take two weeks to process, she said.
"Though the FBI received her computers early in the week, they did not receive her cellphone records until Thursday," Dinh said. "We believe that if personnel experienced in missing persons cases were assigned a lead role, evidence like her cell phone records would be analyzed expeditiously, and we would also see her picture and information posted on the FBI's website under the Missing Persons link."
Hayward police said they share the family's frustration and the sincere hope that Le will be found.
"We are investigating several leads in the case, many of which we have been unable to release publicly so as to not jeopardize our efforts in locating Michelle," Lt. Roger Keener said in a statement. "We will not rest until Michelle's disappearance is solved."
Keener said the FBI has been involved in the case since it began and continues to support the investigation.
"We anticipate the possibility of providing a more detailed update on where we are with the case," he said, "most likely tomorrow afternoon."
The FBI issued a similar statement, reaffirming its commitment to working collaboratively with police to solve the case.
"We have been in constant contact with the Hayward Police since the onset of their investigation," said FBI spokeswoman Julianne Sohn in a statement. "We are working closely with them and we have made every appropriate resource available to them."

Fresh Approach to Eliminating Damp
Published by Angela May for Passivent Ltd in Housing and also in Environment
passivent's fresh tlf vent
An innovative approach to helping eliminate the risk of damp and condensation is being pioneered by Passivent Ltd.
Day to day living for the average family generates up to 24 pints of water vapour a day- moisture that needs to be effectively removed from the building via ventilation to prevent risk of condensation leading to damp and rot. Whether a home is owner-occupied or rented, too often the ventilation is dependent on occupier input- be it turning mechanical ventilation on or off, or opening and closing ventilators.
Passivent, the UK's leading supplier of natural and mechanical ventilation systems, maintains its Fresh 99H through-wall vent requires is unique, in being truly 'fit and forget': it is humidity sensitive, detecting increased levels of moisture in the air and opening and closing accordingly, therefore removing any reliance on the building occupants. It also helps optimize energy efficiency, as it ventilates only when necessary thus minimizing loss of warm internal air, and uses no electricity itself to function, relying purely on natural air movement principles. There are no moving parts, so there are no maintenance or repair issues.
The Fresh 99H is part of the Fresh range of through-wall vents, all of which can help meet Regulatory background ventilation requirements. They can be installed in any external wall up to 300mm, and require a penetration through the wall no bigger than 100mm as standard, whether a part of a new-build or retro-fitted.
Each Fresh vent is purpose-designed to clean and circulate incoming air, without draughts to minimize risk of occupants closing them off. Fresh vents are available in a range of options to optimize flexibility, whether occupant controlled, demand-controlled, and/or addressing acoustic issues depending on the property's location- all presented with contemporary styling to enable discreet integration with the internal décor. All vents are also available in an acoustic version, specially designed for noisy locations, such as main roads, railways, airports. Acoustic versions reduce external noise penetrating into the home whilst ensuring adequate levels of background ventilation; they can provide sound attenuation up to 50dB Dn,e,w..
Stephen Smith, Passivent Domestic Product Manager, elaborates, "With the drive to make homes more energy efficient and airtight, there is increased risk of damp and condensation forming if the moisture in the warmer internal air cannot escape. Obvious signs of damp and condensation deter people from buying or renting a property in the first place, and can involve costly remedial work to rectify. The simplest and most cost-effective way of improving the background ventilation to minimize risk of damp is to install through-wall ventilators such as our Fresh units: they provide a perfect 'fit and forget' scenario!"
Fresh through wall ventilators are just part of
Passivent's comprehensive range of natural and mechanical
ventilation systems designed to provide energy efficient solutions
to ensuring buildings remain fresh and dry, and which are
constantly evolving in line with changing market demands and
requirements. Full details are available on the company's

CONWAY, Ark. - The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi softball team saw it's 13-game winning streak snapped but rallied for a win in the second game of their doubleheader against Central Arkansas. After falling by a 5-4 score in game one, the Islanders came back firing to take a 6-1 final and split the first day of the Southland Conference series.
The team is now 19-6 on the season with a 7-1 league record. The Bears are 10-12 overall and 3-2 in conference games.
Jordan Trujillo suffered the loss in the opening game, pitching six innings while giving up five runs on eight hits with one walk and seven strikeouts. In game two, Vianca Pesina got into trouble early, giving up four-straight hits to start the game but allowed just one the rest of the way. She tossed seven innings and gave up one run on five hits while striking out six and allowing no walks.
In game two, Texas A&M - Corpus Christi trailed 1-0 early after giving up a run in the bottom of the first, but Laura Phillips quickly changed that in the bottom of the third. Following a Brittany Tucker single, Phillips powered a 2-2 pitch over the left field wall for a two-run homer and 2-1lead in the top of the second.
The Islanders added to the lead in the top of the fifth when a Lauren Dodson single scored Caley Jeter and moved Kacie Smith to third. After a Tucker walk loaded the bases, Sandy Schumann hit the ball up the middle for a two-run single and extended the lead to 5-1 after five.
Tucker finished the scoring in the sixth inning when she hit her third home run of the season for a 6-1 lead.
Tucker was the only Islanders player with two hits in the game, going 2-for-3 with an RBI. Hannah Schwarz, Stephanie Vead, Smith, Dodson, Phillips and Schumann each had one hit. Phillips and Schumann led the way with two RBI apiece while Dodson and Tucker had one apiece.
In the first game, Texas A&M - Corpus Christi scored first when Jeter doubled ahead of Kacie Smith, who reached on an error that allowed Jeter to score for a 1-0 lead in the third inning.
The Bears answered back with two runs in the bottom of the fourth on a two-run home run to make it 2-1 in favor of UCA.
The Islanders regained the lead in the fifth when Schwarz led off with a bunt single and scored following a Jeter RBI double to left. Smith followed with an RBI single up the middle to score Jeter and take a 3-2 lead.
The bottom of the sixth saw Trujillo give up a two-run homer and an RBI double as Central Arkansas regained a 5-3 advantage.
Smith got a run back for her team with a solo home run to cut the deficit to 5-4, but Texas A&M - Corpus Christi was unable to get any more as they fell by a 5-4 final.
Schwarz, Jeter and Smith each had two hits in the game. Vead was the only other player to get a hit for the Islanders while Smith led the team with two RBI. Jeter had the other RBI against UCA.
The two teams will finish the series off with a single game tomorrow at 12 p.m. in Conway. Live stats will be available by visiting www.GoIslanders.com.

Darty is set for a confrontation with shareholders after it was forced to admit that it misled them over its chief executive's pay package.
The company, known as Kesa until July this year, said that a mistake in its 2009 annual report had led to it wrongly stating that €357,000 (£283,000) in shares granted to Thierry Falque-Pierrotin were subject to total shareholder return targets.
Mr Falque-Pierrotin, who was named last year as the most overpaid chief executive in the FTSE 250 by Inbucon, the pay adviser, received 779,000 shares in January, despite the company's poor share-price performance.

The world's biggest burger
Let's start small first
It stands 8 inches tall and is a glutton's delight. You can get it at Red Dog Saloon in Hoxton, UK.
What's in it??
Let's go a little big bigger
Meet the Ogre Burger from Build a Burger, Essex. 1 kilo of meat, 800 gm of bun and 200 gm of cheese.
Something more?
The Beer Barrel Belly Buster, is as big around as the inside of a car tire and you can find it at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub, in Clearfield, Pennsylvania.
The 15 pound burger comes with a cup and half each of mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup, a head of lettuce, two onions, three tomatoes and 25 slices of cheese.
Let's get serious
How about a burger that weighs in at 35 kilos? This was made by Bob's BBQ & Grill of Pattaya, Thailand in celebration of the king of Thailand's 60th year accession to the throne.
Now double that
IT TOOK 120 eggs to hold it together and four burly men to flip it, but a Sydney cafe has set a record by making the world's largest burger. The whopping beef burger cooked up at Ambrosia On The Spot, at Randwick, tipped the scales at 95.5 kilos.
But here comes the king
Weighing in at more than 900 kilos, it took a crane to flip it.
The burger measured 10 feet in diameter and was topped with 30 kilos of bacon, 25 kilos of lettuce, 25 kilos of sliced onions, 20 kilos of pickles and 20 kilos of cheese. It was created as a promotion to break the Guinness World Record by the Black Bear Casino Resort in Carlton and the bun itself took more than 7 hours to bake.
Feeling hungry now?

Over the past 5 years Salmonella enteritidis infections in humans have increased on both sides of the Atlantic ocean. The WHO salmonella surveillance data for 1979–87 were reviewed and show that S. enteritidis appears to be increasing on at least the continents of North America, South America, and Europe, and may include Africa. S. enteritidis isolates increased in 24 (69%) of 35 countries between 1979 and 1987. In 1979, only 2 (10%) of 21 countries with reported data reported S. enteritidis as their most common salmonella serotype; in 1987, 9 (43%) of 21 countries reported S. enteritidis as their most common serotype; 8 (89 %) of 9 were European countries. Although the reason for the global increase is not yet clear, investigations in individual countries suggest it is related to consumption of eggs and poultry which harbour the organism.

Title: I loved how my child looks in it
I've ordered this costume for my 5.5 year old son (size x-small, 4-6). I think that the quality is very good, the material is as in light cotton pants. The pants are a little bit long: 52 cm at inner side of the trouser-leg, so I'll have to shorten it a little bit. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Hey Twiggy!! I went and ran the Chile Pepper in Ark. this weekend, what an awesome race! I watched the college guys go off before us and it was awesome to watch them run. I guess the front pack of guys did the first mile in 4:20. That's fast...plus they still had to run 5 more miles.
The race I was in had about 650 guys all on the start line, they combined the senior high and the junior high boys open divisions. Made it hard to figure out what place I was in so I just ran with the lead pack of senior boys. I was really happy with my start and was able to be in the front 10 guys by the time we got to the narrows then we ended up doing a 5:10 first mile which was way too fast for me but I told myself to stay with these guys, they were a bunch of guys from the Woodlands, so I knew it would be fast. The course was fun, lots of little hills with some good downhill parts to make up places, it was fast. I came in 7th overall and 2nd in the junior high division, ran a 17:05, PR'ed by 23 seconds!!
This race got me excited for the cross country nationals in December. We start qualifing races in 2 weeks. I wish you could be there. Are you going to try and go?

Thanks! Yep, we're already looking forward to next year's trip cause of the location.
nice, JO nationals is like 10 minutes from my house this year. I could just about run that course with my eyes closed. Too bad I'm too damn old.
Shorty aka distance101
NOOOOOO! I am so upset. I will most likely not get to go because of how XC season is set up here and during the races I am in Washington DC for that Leadership Forum thing I told you about this summer. : (
I was hoping to improve on my dismal performance last year of 60-somthing and have fun freezing again like last time.
By the way is coach jason gonna go with you this year or not bc of his new coaching postition?
I will still try to visit texas soon!

for the 5k......flat first mile with a big downhill at the end, head into the woods right at the mile mark. You're in the woods for exactly a mile...this part is pretty slow, lots of turns and some short steep hills, nothing major, but makes it tough to develop a rhythm. Exit the woods at the 2 mile mark, they sort of loop around, so then you go up the same big hill you went down in the beginning. Last 1k is entirely flat, same as the start but in reverse direction. Short downhill going into the last 100 meters, and you'll go around a big scoreboard a little ways before that. Thats a good place to throw it down and then just let the downhill carry you in. Not the most difficult course out there but definitely not the easiest. The woods loop can really slow people down, so try to get good position going into it.
Unfortunately I'm not sure on the 4k, but it's something along those same lines.
RI in december can go either way, you could see 20s or you could see 50s, but being from texas, yeah you'll probably freeze. !http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/cool.gif|src=http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/cool.gif|border=0!

My daughter went to JO in Chicago for XC last year and the course was awful!
It was mostly in the open, (not wooded), and just winding around staked out areas. Also there was this one really muddy spot that was on a corner, and because it wasn't roped off properly, all the spectators were walking over the course churning up the mud even more. I was really disappointed.
We liked the course in Maine much better.
Hope RI is as good as everyone says!
i run 17:46 in last meet
16, male, junior: 19:04, pretty pathetic for a male/junior but still second best time on my team
freshman runs 17:46

The Crocodile
User Stats
Profile Images
User Bio
For sixteen years, music fans far and wide recognized the Crocodile Café as Seattle's best live music venue. There is no other spot in the 206 with such a storied and beloved past, and no other rock and roll venue that has earned its right to occupy the hearts of so many.
The Crocodile opened its doors in late April, 1991, with little fanfare and not much attention. Seattle was a very different place at the time – the "Seattle Sound" was still in its infancy, the Washington State Liquor Control Board had some pretty strict rules in place, and you could still travel from one end of the city to the other in fifteen minutes. With traffic.
Located on the corner of Second and Blanchard, in the spot that formerly housed a Greek joint called Athens Café, the Crocodile was an unlikely place for the history that would soon follow. With residential apartments lining the block, and a bustling drug trade around the corner, the Crocodile stood out like an oasis in the neighborhood, welcoming all, and facilitating many a good time.
Virtually every band you have ever loved has played within the walls of Belltown's much loved living room. Nirvana? Yep. Pearl Jam? Yes sir. Cheap Trick, R.E.M., Mudhoney, and Yoko Ono? Why, of course.
But, the Crocodile has always been about more than the stellar talent onstage, or the cheap beer on tap at the bar. The Crocodile has long been the heart and soul of Seattle – the spot where couples met for the very first time, and bands were formed over pitchers of Rainier in the Live Bait Lounge.
The Crocodile was where you would always see friends, or people you recognized, or bands you adored. If you play by the rules – don't get too wasted, be nice to others – you would be just fine. The Croc was where somebody always knew your name, even if you couldn't hear them say it over the amazing sounds coming from the stage.
The club's abrupt closure in December, 2007, broke many a heart, and it is safe to say that folks felt a piece of Seattle had died. Which only meant one thing: the Crocodile must be resurrected, and woven back into its rightful place in Seattle's amazing cultural fabric.
After months of renovations and reconstruction, the mighty Crocodile is nearly ready for its unveiling. It won't be the same old grimy room you remember – the stage has been upgraded, the sightlines have been improved, and that damn pole is gone – but that is the way life goes. The Croc keeps swimming forward, just as we all do.
We look forward to welcoming you back.

ooVoo is an application for Windows and Mac OS X that lets you talk to up to six friends at once via a webcam and a microphone. ooVoo is currently in beta and also allows free calls to any landline in the US and Canada up until May 13th.
Once you've downloaded ooVoo you'll be asked to create an account if you don't already have one. You'll be required to enter a ooVoo ID, a password for your account and your email. When you click the next button you can enter a display name and a picture. Then when you click next again you'll be asked to enter some personal information but this is optional so you can just click finish. When you click finish you will then be logged in to ooVoo and see a welcome window telling you about the features that ooVoo has to offer.
- Video Call
- Video Message
- Find Friends
- Record Video Call
- Video Effects
- Chat
- Send Files
- Sidebar View
- ooVoo Link
- Privacy
ooVoo has quite a few nice features that makes it different to any other messaging client I have came across. A nice feature that I like about ooVoo that (as far as I know) no other messaging client has is that you are able to record video voicemail messages. So if someone is offline and you need to tell them something, instead of sending an email, send a video message and give your fingers a rest.
You're also able to record video calls so this can come in useful if you have a meeting over ooVoo and you need to check back on something later that was said that you may have missed or you need to clarify.
If you want to find out if any of your friends are using ooVoo you can simply do this by clicking "import contacts". You will then have a choice of 8 services to check if your friends are using. The 8 services are AOL, Gmail, Hotmail, IcqMail, mac.com, Yahoo, LinkedIn and Mail.com. If your friends aren't using ooVoo you can either send them an email from ooVoo or send a video message asking them to sign up and add you.
If you're using the Windows version of ooVoo you will be able to do video effects with your friend when in a video call. This feature is not available for Mac OS X so you won't be able to do it unless you install Windows on Bootcamp, Parallels or VMware.
Just like every messaging client, ooVoo will let you message and talk to your friends with text. Up to six people can join a conversation and you can send messages to offline contacts and they will receive the message when they next log in to ooVoo.
With ooVoo you can also send files to your contacts and friends and can send up to twenty files to as many contacts as you want at any time. A really nice feature is that you are able to send files to contacts who are offline and they will receive them the next time they log on.
Another cool feature that I like about ooVoo is the Sidebar View. If you're working on many files and ooVoo is getting in the way you can switch to Sidebar View and it will put ooVoo to the right of your screen so that it is out of the way but you can still see your friends and contacts if you're in a video call.
If you want people to see if you're online on ooVoo and available, you can add an ooVoo link to your blog, website or email signature. If someone views your ooVoo link and sees your online status, they will be able to call you and chat to you instantly. Within the privacy settings you are able to set who can see your ooVoo status.
Within the privacy options in ooVoo you can also set whether everyone can see your picture or just your contacts, if video calls start automatically and who can contact and call you.
Do you use ooVoo? Or do you have another preferred VOIP application?

Is there a way to exclude pages from being included in the RSS feed?

History of Rock & Roll
Race in History of Rock & Roll
Not So Easy-Listening
The white youth of the 1950s weren't all that crazy about the safe, easy-listening, buttoned-up pop music their parents enjoyed. Balladeers like Perry Como who sang, "And I love you so / The people ask me how / How I've lived 'til now / I tell them I don't know," did little to arouse excitement. Teens perceived pop hits like Eileen Barton's "If I Knew You Were Coming I'd've Baked A Cake (Howdya do, howdya do, howdya do?)" as saccharine, and crooners like Patti Page who asked "How Much Is That Doggie In The Window?" left teenagers bored, seeking something far more titillating. Jimmy Boyd's holiday smash, "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus," might have had potential had the song not really been about a naïve child catching his parents in a Christmas-themed embrace. Fifties pop spoke to adults, and in some cases, young children—not quite the stuff teens wanted to hear at school dances or listen to in their cars or in soda shop and other after-school hang-outs.
"Race Records"
Black popular music—everything from jazz and blues to boogie-woogie and rhythm and blues—stood at odds to the white pop songs and artists that epitomized post-war conservatism. By comparison, black pop was raunchy, unrestrained, rowdy, and even revolutionary. What was categorized by the record industry as "race music" stood as a powerful cultural alternative to the tight-lipped, conformist values that marked the first decade of the Cold War.
With the post-war economic boom came a new era in radio broadcasting. With greater competition, national radio networks gave way to a horde of new independent, locally based stations hosting a variety of entertainment programs. Many of these were black owned and operated, or at least hired black disc jockeys to meet local demand for shows featuring "race music." And audiences—primarily black—couldn't get enough. The discriminating tastes of blacks in cities and towns throughout the country helped determine what many local radio disc jockeys offered up.
Learning the Swagger
White teens turning the dial on their radios came across tunes that sounded nothing at all like their parents' records. What they heard thrilled their senses and aroused their imaginations. Chuck Berry begged and pleaded on "Maybelline," howling along with his ferocious guitar licks, "Why can't you be true / You done started doing the things you use to do." On their steamy song "Seventeen," Boyd Bennett and His Rockets hollered the lines, "Seventeen, seventeen / Cool and solid seventeen / Young enough to dance and sing / Old enough to get that swing." To a fast-paced, syncopated beat, Bill Haley sang, "We're gonna rock around the clock tonight." And a sultry singer named Elvis Presley oozed sex appeal on a bluesy number called, "That's All Right Mama." These energetic, spontaneous, and sexy singers spoke to the young generation in ways that no squeaky-clean pop music could have. It offered them unique rhythms, cutting edge styles, and modern attitudes to enjoy and, ultimately, to emulate.
Black pop music also reflected major social and cultural changes brought on by postwar urbanization, including youthful rebellion. By contrast, white pop music had ignored or watered down these transformations. Cold War youth, inspired by nonconformist icons like James Dean, Marlon Brando, and Natalie Wood, naturally gravitated toward the more edgy black tunes, songs they felt spoke to their frustrations. These young whites made black music their own by learning the dances, memorizing the slang, and copying the cool swagger of African-American boogie-woogie and rhythm and blues artists. They claimed as their own a genre scorned by most whites born before World War II (and by some middle- and upper-class blacks) as "jungle music" for its sexually aggressive lyrics that seemed to encourage wild, disgraceful dancing, excessive drinking, and violent behavior.
Rockin' and Rollin'
What had been, in black pop music, slang for having sex, became the name for a new, salacious musical genre. Innovation in audio technology, new instruments, fresh talent, business savvy record producers, and a young population of new consumers created by post-war economic prosperity helped turn "race music" into "rock and roll."8

Thanks for that mintalkin. Checked Hayne's again and lo and behold the heater is shown in section 3.8. Must have missed it when scrolling through the pages on screen. :( Fuses all OK so will check the snder unit as you suggest. Fingers crossed he/I will be able to fix it soon.
Border_Collie posted a topic in Ford Mondeo / Vignale ClubMy son recently purchased a 97 (P) Reg. Mondeo 2.0 GLX Auto. He's noticed 1. the heater blows hot air only regardless of where the control is set. (he started to pull the control knobs off, to see if he could fix it, but the temperature one wouldn't budge, it now turns completely round, either way). 2. the temperature guage doesn't work (although he said he's sure it did on the test drive). He borrowed a Hayne's Manual but that hasn't been any help. Could anyone suggest what to look for and where/how to get to the necessary parts. Thanks in advance. BC

One of the persistent complaints from young people beginning to contemplate their economic futures is that there are simply no jobs available to keep them in West Virginia. They would like to remain in their home states, they say, but they believe there is nothing for them.
Now, according to Charlie Burd, Executive Director of the Independent Oil and Gas Association of West Virginia, there is an economic wave approaching our region that could very well bring back the kinds of jobs our young people say we are missing. Burd says this is no longer a boom and bust situation.
"Your grandchildren might well retire during the development of this (Utica and Marcellus) shale," he said.
There are jobs in "every possible avenue you can look at," Burd said. Good, well-paying jobs - not all of which require spending exorbitant amounts of money and time in school after high school graduation; though they do require willingness to work hard.
IOGA has spent a lot of money in its effort to let students know what opportunities will soon be available. With educational outreach programs and $127,000 in scholarships, the group hopes to make kids understand how important it is for them to prepare themselves for the jobs that will allow them to stay closer to home.
If anything must be hammered home, particularly to young people in Appalachia, it is Burd's message about drug use. The companies that will bring this economic boom to our state conduct drug tests before the hiring process and throughout employment.
"You cannot work in our industry and not pass a drug test," Burd said. He gave one example of a company in which, if a driver tests positive for drugs, he or she simply cannot work for the next ten years.
Ten years. A person unable to resist the toxic saturation of our region with an ever-growing variety of drugs could be throwing away a chance to do good work, in an economically stable industry, for a decade.
"We've sent too many of our kids away," Burd said. "Maybe this (development of the Utica and Marcellus shales) will bring some back."
Industry is moving to answer the plea of so many that we do what we can to create jobs for those who hope to stay in West Virginia. But it is up to those job seekers to maintain their end of the bargain. They have to be hirable. They have to get good educations, be hard-working and reliable, and stay drug-free.
Burd relayed a story about one work site that actually had to be shut down because more than half the workers failed drug tests. The responsibility for those lost jobs rests squarely with the workers who made the decision to use drugs, instead of keeping themselves above the influence in order to properly do the jobs for which they were being paid.
Parents, teachers, guidance counselors - everyone - must add to the already long list of reasons not to get sucked into drug use the fact that doing so will cost you a chance at a better economic future. Adding to the pollution of the West Virginia workforce will drive companies to bring in outside workers who are willing to avoid drugs. It will play into a cycle that has plagued this state for generations.
But these kids - this generation - can do something to stop it, if they will only work hard, both in school and at the job site, and stay clean. The rest of us are failing if we do not send them that message, loud and clear.

Sexy babe Daisy Marie smiles brightly as she introduces herself. Today she is going to ride the Sybian and you are going to be completely mesmerized watching the way that her fine body moves over the machine. Daisy is a sexual tigress and once she gets going, it is impossible not to be totally excited by her. She mounts the machine and rides it to orgasmic perfection.
The bombshell Daisy Marie is horny and is having a hard time keeping her hands off herself!! She touches her hot body to turn you on, make you sweat a little bit. She dances around as she slowly strips exposing her perky tits, tight trim pussy and round ass. She gets comfy and lets her fingers do the walking.
The gorgeous Daisy Marie slowly teases us with her oral skills on her dildo before letting it disappear in her very wet and excited pussy. Daisy Marie enjoys cumming and being watched while she masturbates so there should be a lot of enjoyment in this movie. She looks absolutely stunning and her sexual energy is mesmerizing.
The gorgeous 23-year old Daisy Marie has been a favorite with the Aziani crew for quite some time and we are thrilled to have our brunette superhottie finally grace the Aziani studios in all her naked glory. Daisy is the busty, funny, and sexually voracious girl-next-door type. In other words: Perfect!


text: I'm not sure it is the 'warmth' thing lots of people suggest about digital sound carriers... in my experience the problem is with the digital remixing not getting the levels of the instruments correct when they put songs back together again. Compare RCA Station To Station (the second half of the song) (any format) and the Ryko Disc version. It hangs limp, the soaring backing vocals are a touch quieter and the guitar is a bit more hidden. Together it rips the heart from the song.Dr Toby Mountain did a good job, but it perhaps was rushed (??)Also compare the recent ZS reissue for the digital technicians cocking up a remaster. ...bits of songs are missing!

Beautiful, clean lines! Loving that eclectic look too! Enjoy the wonderful day, Kellie xxReplyDelete
Such beautiful photos - love the light, the colours, and esp that mirror over the sofa. Lovely!ReplyDelete
Love the retro lines on that sofa and the contemporary colour scheme. Thanks for the intro to Aristea Rizakos, looking forward to checking out some of her work.

|I think the KFC joke is going into my stand-up act.
In the latest Left Hemispheres Podcast episode I talk about putting three hundred dollars on the line as a way to force myself to lose weight. And yes, if I don't lose the weight that money will be going to a hate group, a hate group that I personally hate.
I'm six feet tall and currently weigh 210lbs, which puts my BMI (Body Mass Index) at 28.5. To officially obese I'd have to rock the scale at 230 lbs. I've seen me at 230 lbs before and it isn't pretty, my friends. I've been an unattractive thin person and an unattractive fat person, and I've found the former to be far more preferable than the latter.
I suggest that you listen to the entire podcast, of course, but to find out more about my deal with the Devil check out my section which begins at the 29 minute 45 second mark. I'll be throwing up (no, not that way) a few videos on my weight loss progress in the following weeks, and talking about how much I dislike the ant-charity that my money may be going to. Perhaps I'll spin a few jokes while I'm at it, since the road between suffering and comedy is so well travelled.
You may say that it's morally wrong for me to put at risk that money going to the Dark Side. That I should have picked a kinder gentler way to motivate myself. I'd like to point out that I've tried being nice with me, and do you know what I've found? I treat visiting unfamiliar KFC's like some people enjoy visiting museums. (Oh, they place the extra crispy on the left instead of the right, interesting.) You have to bring out the heavy weapons against such a fixation on deep fat frying. Much like Alexander the Great, who burned his own boats upon crossing the Bosphorous and told his men, "We go home in Persian ships, or we die," I will lose the weight or suffer ignominious defeat that only the internet can provide.
Why would I do such a thing?
Because this is Purgatory.
