CHICAGO — Carlos Beltran will take swings early next week before the Yankees decide if the right fielder needs surgery on his right elbow, manager Joe Girardi said.
The eight-time All-Star got a second opinion Tuesday from Dr. James Andrews after having a second cortisone shot to ease pain from a bone spur.
Girardi said the veteran will take some dry swings or hit off a tee Monday and again Tuesday, assuming there's no pain. From there, he would continue to work his way back.
If he experiences pain, Girardi said the next step would likely be surgery that would keep him out eight to 10 weeks.
"Does he feel that he can take his 'A' swing?" the manager said. "You don't want him going out there if he's taking a 'B' or 'C' swing. That's not going to help us."
He said the Yankees have enough outfielders to "work around" any defensive shortcomings brought on by the injury.
The 37-year-old Beltran was hitting .240 with five homers and 15 RBI in his first season with the Yankees before being placed on the 15-day disabled list last week.

Not included in birthday party planning, but expected to bring ALL the food with 4 days notice
There was no need to respond to her text as it had nothing to do with DSS.
No, don't do it. There's two very good reasons: 1) you weren't included in the planning, and 2) she didn't have the common courtesy to ask you herself. Stick with doing a nice quiet family thing for him yourself.
Mama to: Cole: April 04 Grace: July 05 Dylan: Sep 04, Ethan: Dec 12 Wife March 2010 Silver ( • Y • )
Ignore the request, as BM hasn't said anything to you. If she does, simply say "that doesn't work for us considering that you didn't involve us in planning" and leave it at that
Happy SAH, ERFing Mommy to my Little Buddy
That is messed up. I am probably weird, because I would cheerfully provide the food for a big party for my stepsons if BM asked back during the planning stages. But hello? To provide themed food for a large group of people takes planning and shopping and hours of work. It is not a simple courtesy to give advance notice to the cook...the theme and taste and everything are affected by not having enough time. That she assumed you would do all this work and spend all this money and gave no advance notice at all are both deal breakers by themselves. That she never even asked you at all is bizarre! Especially since she contacted you to berate you for refusing, but couldn't contact you to ask you.
Blessed and Highly Favored
If my MIL tried to get in the middle like that, I would tell her what I tell DSDs when BM tries to use them as messengers: "You are not a messenger. If BM wants us to act or think about this, she must communicate directly with DH."
As for all the texts she sent, do not respond in the future. Let her blow her steam all she wants, but don't respond, it is a waste of your time.

On June 30th the Flemish Government announced the upcoming structural art funds for 2017-2021. The arts sector as a whole suffers a setback and about 41 Arts Organizations lose all of their grants. We regret that the consequences will be felt most of all by the smaller organisations; those who are particularly supporting the development of young art talents.
As many others, Sound Image Culture (SIC) loses its structural funding and will have to continue without a secured subsidy for the coming years.
We stay firmly convinced of the importance of our task and we are fully committed to constructing a new future for SIC.

Masterclass with Daniele Dottorini : Archive, recycled images, found footage. Practices of re-editing in film
The workshop will focus on a contemporary trend of the editing practices, namely the re-editing of archival materials. Will therefore stress the central role of the editing for the reconfiguration of the meaning of images produced in other contexts, where they acquire new meanings and new functions through the editing process. The workshop will last one day and will take place through a process aimed at highlighting, using selected examples throughout history of cinema, the possibilities of the "reuse the images", from the editing as a compilation, as a collage or as appropriation (according to the definitions created by William A. Wees) up to several paradigms that are the basis of a Archive-based films (historical, aesthetic, anthropological and political), or the difference between Repetition and Umwertung (Revaluation), according the theories of Christa Bluminger.

YOKO OSHA (SIC-project 2014) by Lazara Rosell Albear & BARE FACED by Sammy Baloji and Lazara Rosell Albear
Yoko Osha - Lazara Rosell Albear returns to the magical–realistic world of Santeria of Regla de Osha: the mysterious religion practiced in secret by more than 70% of the Cuban population in the director's home country Cuba. The film interweaves an intimate portrayal of this tradition with his rules and ritualistic initiations, with personal experiences and audio-visual recreations, performance and poetry. By merging different documentary styles the film becomes a subjective self-portrait of the director. Nine years of research have passed, allowing the project as well to portray the evolution of the documenting media's as to reflect on the connection between social unrest and noise in digital media. The result is a multi-layered film where the place of beliefs in the universal human quest for survival, is researched/questioned through levels of trance and heterotopias.
Bare Faced - The starting point for both artists was the search for their common personal history. They followed the central-African Kongo-culture from Congo to Cuba, guided by the inherited religious practices in which 'trance' plays an important role. By bringing the past in connection with the present, this project is an artistic reinterpretation of our memories in transgression and by so doing reveals the necessity of the transmission. The film interweaves in an experimental way autoetnographic research, brought to light in multilayers of knowledge, mixing documentary styles, performative re-stagings and poetry.

THERE ARE NO IMAGES (SIC-project 2014) by Miguel Peres dos Santos & 'Cavalo Dinheiro' by Pedro Costa
There are no images - A proposal on a reflection upon a possible link between image and memory; between image and moment; and between image and death. A father, a son and a dead child engage in a dialogue constructed departing from the a moment. "does an image die?"; "and if an image dies"… "what will happen to memory?"
Housewarming (SIC project 2014) by Effi Weiss & Amir Borenstein
& Lili by SIC-founder An van. Dienderen selected for FID Marseille !
HOUSEWARMING - In a two-dimensional dystopian landscape of deserted, half-built houses in ex-communist Albania, an allegorical version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears unfolds. Like so many Albanians, the owners of the unfinished homes emigrated to the West after the end of the totalitarian regime (1991). Effi Weiss & Amir Borenstein invade the liminal space of the houses and occupy their emptiness, while the voice of an Albanian iso-polyphonic choir* sings poems based on interviews with locals responding to the artists' invasion. This act of reverse immigration, from a place regarded as representative of Western affluence to a place considered destitute and deficient, critically inquires into the status of artists as privileged foreigners, short-term migrants who come to work with a local community. It's a movement from the full to the empty, from excess to lack. *a traditional form from southern Albania
An van. Dienderen's LILI is about the phenomenon of the China Girl. In a TV studio a girl named Lili (played by Belgian actress Maaike Neuville) is asked to serve as a so-called China Girl. China Girls, used in cinema history since the 1920's, are women with Caucasian skin who are filmed alongside a colour-chart in order to adjust the colours of the film. They have no dialogues to memorize or characters to impersonate. All they have to do, is have an impeccable white complexion. Their skin – white as porcelain – is used as a reference for the colour grading of camera and printing, ultimately excluding people of colour who do not conform to this implicit norm. Lili tells the story of one of these China Girls through archival material, found footage and documentary recordings, and questions the tradition of China Girls contextualized in a society, which, according to anthropologist Michael Taussig exemplifies chromophobic uneasiness with color.
IL QUARTO GIORNO DI SCUOLA (The Forth Day of School) a film by Martina Melilli (SIC 2015)

IL QUARTO GIORNO DI SCUOLA (The Forth Day of School) - Martina Melilli's father made the crossing from Tripoli to Italy as a child. His story aligns seamlessly with that of current migrants and their experiences. Historical and contemporary footage merge subtly while the place that her father landed is recorded in water colour.
IL QUARTO GIORNO DI SCUOLA was also screened at Rotterdam Film Festival.

LINEFORK, 2016 : Deep in Kentucky coal country, Lee & Opal Sexton continue to farm their land along Linefork Creek. Well into his eighties, Lee is a retired coal miner and revered banjo legend, a living link to the deep past of American music. Though hampered by hearing loss, Lee continues to perform at square dances and teach his distinctive style to a new generation eager to preserve a vanishing cultural tradition. Filmed over three years, Linefork offers an immersive view of Lee and Opal's daily rituals and their inherent resiliency, while documenting the raw yet delicate music of a singular musician, linked to the past yet immediately present.

Masterclass with Jeff Silva : The Aesthetics of Ambiguity & Implicit Storytelling
Cinema, particularly non-fiction film, is bound up by the lived experience, by the index, by the "actuality" of human existence. But cinema is also a powerful form of magic; it's a kinesthetic dance of movement, light, color and sonic vibrations that penetrates our bodies and can alter our perception to embed alternate forms of knowledge that can have a lasting impact on the viewer long after the ephemeral images on the screen have disappeared. How can we as artists/ethnographers maximize the potential of cinematic magic and yet still deliver deeper ideas and resonances? How can be effectively conjoin meaning, memory and affect? How can we empower a viewer as a collaborator in narrative construction and meaning making through the aesthetic use of ambiguity? And how might an ethnographically inflected project benefit from exploring these questions? Through screenings, discussions and readings we shall explore these questions for answers that might help inform our own research and individual artistic practices.

Première of "LA DEUXIEME NUIT" by SIC-coach Eric Pauwels
The Second Night, the third instalment of documentary maker Eric Pauwels' self-examination, depicts the special relationship between the filmmaker and his mother. The film is a tale of intertwined lives and of a near mythical strength of bond which allowed both to see their own story, shot in Pauwels' usual hushed tone.

Observation and Cityscapes_around the heart with Els Opsomer
Els Opsomer starts from her attitude as photographer and wants to offer different readings of the same issues.
In the workshop 'Observation and Cityscapes_around the heart' we focus on possibilities of participating and reading an urban landscape in relation to different moods. One introduction walk is organized. We reflect upon the personal projects and a range of films are shown. Some intervention of the participant is asked. At last she invites a friend as special guest : Geoffroy De Volder. It is all about connecting to your surrounding.
On Thursday 12 / 05 Geoffroy De Volder will interrogate the cruelty of gestures and the caressing gaze that is confronting them. Crossing intensities and passion with emotions and forms, he's going to try to hurt within a whisper. From far away to deep within, sound and images will devour tormented souls half asleep before dying. Yes, life can still be caught amazingly in acts, sensuality and intelligence, meaning and poetry. By us!
Geoffroy De Volder (1964) explores through art the remains of a life unexpected but true. Paintings, documents and more than 60 films are the waters in which he tries not to sink. His last installation (four synchronised videos) questions the arising voice of Ian Curtis. He also teaches sculpture, video and pluridisciplinary arts in Molenbeek and at La Cambre.

Screening : Building Stories # 001 [This Distant Piece Of Mine] by Els Opsomer
Building Stories # 001 [This Distant Piece Of Mine] is a 16mm film recorded in Senegal; reportedly the most accessible West African country, a tourist destination with a renowned hospitality. Far from the 'clichés' this film shows a poetic stroll through a topical Senegal. From the amazement about the grace with which the population strides over the ground, the absurdity of architecture that often is plumped down as a UFO in the landscape or orphaned infrastructure that plays a role in the whole of the scene, you find yourself in a unique African world. The tension of the film is in the interaction between what is familiar and strange, between what is constructed or in continuous deconstruction, between the stories you invent as a viewer and the stories that these scenes tell you, between what moves and what is still. Building Stories # 001 [This Distant Piece Of Mine] is an infinite portrait radiating a lonely quietness in an African frenetic world.

An van. Dienderen's film LETTER HOME will be presented at the Forum Image Festival Tokyo 29 / 04 - 06 / 05 / 2016 !
LETTER HOME is a video letter without words. There is talk, but not by the author. And the language sounds Asian, incomprehensible to most Western ears. After An van. Dienderen achieved several critical documentaries in which the encounter with another culture was always quite concrete, there is now this film with a quasi abstract image flow. However, this is not distant, autonomous data art, such as the purely computer-generated pixel patterns for example by Casey Reas. Like an envelope full of dried and crumbled petals her short film evokes a chaotic mosaic of colors and impressionistic pixels, which by patches of concrete sounds can still be interpreted.

Pre-Cinema / Databased Future Seminar with Didier Volckaert
The seminar of Didier Volckaert brings us back to the basics of Cinema and the use of AudioVisual Media today. It reflects on the fact that the difference between Anthropology and Visual Anthropology (or Documentary in the broadest sense) is the use of a machine, a technological construction, as means of direct communication (filmmaker--other) and delayed output (filmmaker--other--public). It opens up this awareness for any use of AudioVisual Media in Art, Science and even entertainment. The seminar is a manifest against the dominant position of language in our Culture and a confrontation with the complexity of images. But it's also the joy of exploration, experimentation and a renewed sense of freedom in our standardized media society. By re-tracing the origins of our machines in Pre-Cinema and Dead Media we try to understand their parameters and how we can use them to give sense and meaning, to communicate our point of view and to create Art. All of this brought to you in both a sensorial and active way in direct relationship to your own project.

LILI by SIC-founder An van. Dienderen
With the film LILI An van. Dienderen questions the supposedly neutral character of this highly problematic and ideologically charged practice. If the film tonality is adjusted to the white complexion, other skin colors look unnaturally dark. Black actors appearing next to white actors need to wear insanely thick layers of make-up, otherwise they will appear pitch black with only white patches of teeth and eyeballs. For this very reason, Jean-Luc Godard famously refused to use Kodak film stock when working in Mozambique. Can technology itself be racist? An van. Dienderen contends that the medium itself should be examined from its technical aspect, because it matters what we consider a norm, be it in the skin color, the gender relations involved in the film process or an average beauty standard.

Davide Tidoni (SIC 2014) : THE SOUND OF NORMALIZATION
THE SOUND OF NORMALIZATION focuses on the evolution of the chanting strategies shared by the (football supporters) ultras group BRESCIA 1911. Chanting has been considered in particular relation to processes of modern football, crowd regulation and police repression within football stadia. The project includes a selection of 30 audio recordings and a booklet. The recordings were taken over a research period of more than 13 years (2002>2015). The field work has been characterized by an high degree of active involvement and participation not only in relation to the chanting but also to the social activities organized by the supporters outside the football stadium.
THE SOUND OF NORMALIZATION has been presented as a talk/performance in a variety of contexts including: Raum/Xing, Bologna, Italy (2009); School of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Exeter, UK (2009); Villa Kabilla, Den Haag, The Netherlands (2013); ARGOS centre for art and media, Brussels, Belgium (2015).

Research Café : The Secret Sense of Objects / Michel Yang / Lecture-performance and video
As dancer and performance artist, my practice is to revise the cartography of the body by means of physical states, and by embodying the immediate surrounding and circumstances. Most recently objects have come into play. Reclaimed from city streets and flea markets, objects are reborn into a second life on the body and in turn altering the sense of the body itself. Regarding their use in my performances, I am frequently asked what do the objects mean?
For Research Café, I propose a lecture performance to share recent works that respond to this question. Partly reflection and partly ritual, I propose to share written and spoken stories, video vignettes, and a live revision of my body's cartography. Objects are their common link. They are arranged, rearranged, played with, and reassigned function attempting to exhaust the question what do the objects mean?
Cinéma Du Réel presents LA DEUXIÈME NUIT by SIC-coach Eric Pauwels
Samedi 19 Mars 15H20 Cinéma 1,
Dimanche 20 Mars 19H20 Luminor Hôtel de Ville,
Mardi 22 Mars 14H00 Centre Wallonie Bruxelles
LA DEUXIÈME NUIT (The Second Night) - On the death of his mother, a filmmaker makes a film to see how much her disappearance has changed his vision of the world. It is an opportunity for him to look back over his relationship with her: a relationship that made him a free individual, as a man and as a filmmaker. The second night is the final part of a trilogy that began with Letter from a filmmaker to his daughter, which was followed by Dreaming films. The making of this "Cabin Trilogy" is the fruit of fifteen years of work and reflection.
Julia Clever (SIC 2016) : DEVOIR DE MÉMOIRE at the Royal Military Museum Brussels
Opening 5 / 03 from 19h with the "War Party" during "Museum Night Fever" Brussels. On show till 31 / 03.
An investigation of her grandfather's formative years as a German soldier during WWII, brought her to a 5year field-research on "Living History" re-enactments of this war period.
The resulting video-installation "Devoir de memoire" explores a range of personal trajectories that reconstruct war memories through embodiment and reactement, revealing different perspectives on the underlying identity politics of both the participants who perform these reneactments, and the filmmaker, and confronts the audience with questions on our relationship with violent historical events.

Screening SUBORDINATION a film by Ariane Looze (SIC 2015) at Traverse Video, Toulouse .
Solo-Show : Tine Guns (SIC 2010) : To Each His Own Mask in Netwerk Aalst until 06 / 03
In the highly focused work of Tine Guns (°1983), which extends from film work on publications to photographic installations, the volatility of human perception plays a central role. The intangible processes of forming images and meanings do not crystallise in works that are constantly generating new connections.
In Netwerk Tine Guns will exhibit a video installation in anticipation of her upcoming film, To Each His Own Mask, which will see its premiere there later this year. The work views the current protest culture through the perspective of carnival rituals.
Tine Guns shows a layered installation, in which images mask each other and give new identities to the familiar.

SURYA - Once upon a journey, ten contemporary storytellers of different cultures create an imaginary epic story. They each draw on their own style and own language to prolong the life of a nameless hero. The aromas of cultures, the taste of words and the perfume of travelling carry us from one storyteller to the next. Like an epic story, this film oscillates between imagination and reality, the inner world and the outside world, documentary and fiction. An ode to orality. This impressionistic film is the outcome of an overland odyssey by public transport from dusk to dawn, through Europe and Asia (Belgium, Slovakia, Turkey, Syria, Kurdistan, Iran, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Tibet, China, Vietnam). An audio-visual performance where imagination and creativity travel across borders.
NOW AT Cinema Galeries :
Prix SACD Audiovisuel 2015 : 'LE CHANT DES HOMMES' by SIC-coach Mary Jimenez and Bénédicte Liénard
LE CHANT DES HOMMES (Rising Voices) - Their names are Moktar, Najat, Joseph, Gernaz, Duraid, Hayder, Kader, Esma… They fled Syria, Iraq, Iran, Congo, Morocco and Niger… Together, they occupy a church. They will risk their lives for asylum. Days of countdown begin; a test of strength in itself. Inside, Kader has assumed the role of leader, but, mysteriously, sometimes he is missing. Day by day, devotedly, Esma cares for this community. Exhaustion increases; tensions rise. But bonds are forged and strengthened. Between betrayal and brotherhood, the group will have to put itself to the test, and face up to the challenge.
Congratulations :
A Remarkable Odyssey of Imaginary Beings by Sabine Groenewegen (SIC 2015) receives support from the Dutch Cultural Media Fund. The project was developed in the context of SoundImageCulture in 2015 and is co-produced by Argos Centre for Art and Media.

Screening of HOUSEWARMING by Effi Weiss & Amir Borenstein (SIC-Project 2014)
at Beursschouwburg in Brussels
HOUSEWARMING - In a two-dimensional dystopian landscape of deserted, half-built houses in ex-communist Albania, an allegorical version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears unfolds. Like so many Albanians, the owners of the unfinished homes emigrated to the West after the end of the totalitarian regime (1991). Effi Weiss & Amir Borenstein invade the liminal space of the houses and occupy their emptiness, while the voice of an Albanian iso-polyphonic choir* sings poems based on interviews with locals responding to the artists' invasion. This act of reverse immigration, from a place regarded as representative of Western affluence to a place considered destitute and deficient, critically inquires into the status of artists as privileged foreigners, short-term migrants who come to work with a local community. It's a movement from the full to the empty, from excess to lack. *a traditional form from southern Albania
Nominated for the Best Documentary at the Magritte du Cinéma 2016 : BUREAU DE CHOMAGE (Employment Office) a film by Charlotte Grégoire (SIC-participant 2009) and Anne Schiltz
BUREAU DE CHOMAGE (Employment Office) - In an office, a row of desks, with people facing each other. This is where unemployed people come to meet with their advisors. At stake: their benefit payments. Here everyone has to abide by the same rigid procedure and bureaucracy but each has their own life, their own story. This film shows what it means today to have a job, when work is more and more precarious, employed and unemployed alike less and less secure, and the welfare state is shrinking away and under attack.
Congratulations to Lazara Rosell Albear (SIC participant 2014) ! She will be a WIELS resident in 2016.

Miss Phelps has lied to herself so many times that she now believes it is the truth.
Aaah, Good ol' "M.O.M". (Method Of Madness)!… Mrs. Phelps is an "accidental counselor", and Bern is getting the advice she sought, but in the usually unexpected way… It's funny how Bern is Jello, and Phelps is the "brick wall", here..
The reassurance phase is proceeding… more than just about what is "sensible"…. the re-estimation of what one has, when viewed from an alternative, perhaps more independent source… the resolution that one's own flora maintains an ample, if not merely adequate supply of chorophyl type compounds and vert-like, reflective light that in hindsight would prove just as lush, vivid productive and teeming with aesthetic appeal, even if compared to adjacent areas of privately cared-for flora and earthly growths…
In other words, the grass is not always greener on the other side … Our grass (for the most part) is just fine! ….
"Sense And Nonsensibility"
"Mind What You Find"
"The Needs Of The Many….."
"I'm Confident! Right?"
"Raise Your Hand If You're Sure"
"I Can Think For Myself!… I Think…"
"Reverse Reverse Psychology (In Reverse)"
A lie, repeated often enough and loudly enough, becomes the truth. That's how politics works. It's also how unwise counselors work…
"Brought to you" by….
More Deodorant… "Uh, don't raise your hand, just yet!…"
Clique Shoes… "Be you! Be unique! Be a 'Clique' wearer!"…
Water Heel and Sole comfort systems….. "Fluid motion and comfort in every step…. 'Go with the flow!' "….
and by…
B. Gehnner House Repair… "We'll get it right by the time we get to your house!"…
It's 10:48 Pacific Standard time and there are only nine comments?
Ms. Phelps isn't lying, nor is she pretending…
She's so comfortable, so used to "not being what others expect her to be"… She's honest and unpretentious, to the point that she is regarded as unaware….
But her going through life is the same at moving to the rhythm of a different drummer… people would think that the beat is off… but if you listen closely, you'd see that the beat is "just fine!"…. it's just not the same style as others, but it serves her just fine…
It's like she's trying to express to Bernice, when you have your own mind, you will be comfortable with who you are, and will not depend on the "general consensus", but will be your own person…..
RUN, Berniece, RUN QUICKLY!!!
And don't forget that at the outset of the arc, Bernice was questioning whether or not she was missing something, when shopping with Delta… she's getting an answer, now.… that she has a good mind of her own …
The prom is just a "secondary aspect", a "vehicle" in the development of Bernice, just as there was development of Gunther a bit in the previous arc, among others…
This strip is called Luann but she hasn't been in it for quite some time.
Bern, better check to see what's in that tea…
I've seen it happen that the Delta-type, with solid thinking, winds up married, and the Bernice-type (who would like to marry) goes on to save the world.
re: honeysum
or ends up like a bernice-like girl I knew that got into drugs. Before that she talked about the mission field. After a handful of years of that I assume she did"missionary" and presumably other things in the "films" she was in. Considering I would have cheerfully stopped a bullet for her when I was young and stupid, her lifestyle choices hurt rather a lot.
Thinking of mindless fun, I'd be curious to see Phelps' response if Fabio came in and asked her to go see "Rocky Horror Picture Show" with him.
Bernice? Go to the prom.

Pole shifts happen, periodically, often enough to be understood by ancient civilizations.
My user name even refers to this; Horus is the Egyptian Sun of God whom kings identified with - the one who ruled during the pole shift - before and after - referred to himself as Horus of the Two Horizons because he ruled when the stars of the sky were in one position and also afterwards after many stars appeared to fall out of the sky forever and new stars appeared for the first time on the other side.
Bible prophecy describes previous pole shifts and clearly describes the next one both in its effects and its timing.
Isaiah 24:1 for example "Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof." (King James) or another version "Behold, the LORD will empty the earth and make it desolate, and he will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants."
There are hundreds of references that describe them, and tell us what the sky will look like when it happens next. With astronomy software like Stellarium we can calculate when planets are stars converge in the described arrangements - which happen to play out the steps in an ancient Jewish wedding - in December 2019

Best Behringer Keyboard amps reviewed here. Behringer is a popular manufacturer of electronic sound goods, including keyboard amplifiers, and are known for their value-for-money products. Here are factors to consider before buying a Behringer amplifier and review of their popular models.
Lots of people feel that Behringer keyboard amps are of okay standards just because of their somewhat lower prices.
This is not the case!
In fact Behringer keyboard amplifiers offer the best bang for your bucks.
Behringer offers amps ranging from the ones that offer just basic amplification to the ones that come with pro-features. You will find many features on these amps at reasonable prices.
Behringer Keyboard Amp – Various Products
Here are the various amplifier models of Behringer keyboard amp.
Behringer K1800FX Ultratone Keyboard Amplifier (180 Watts, 1×12 in.)
This one is among the most popular keyboard amps. With 180 watts of power, you'll never run out of horse power. This 4-channel PA/keyboard amplifier enclosed in a bass reflex cabinet has a special, beefed up 12 in. Bugera woofer and a custom-made 1 in. tweeter, delivering clear, clean sound that's ideal for larger gigs. This amp has an excellent compact design and feels extremely solid. No rattling sound at high volumes. Read more…
Behringer K3000fx 300 Watt Ultratone Keyboard Amplifier

Behringer K450FX Ultratone Keyboard Amplifier (45 Watts, 1×10 in.)

Bugera speaker, making sure that you can faithfully reproduce a broad repertoire of signals. A straight-forward amp, this sounds big for a small amp. As with entry level amps, preferably not to be used at very high volumes. Read more…

Its a 2-channel keyboard amplifier with 20-Watt power, 2 instrument inputs with separate volume control for each channel, VTC Virtual Tube Circuitry for tube-like sound, Ultra-musical 3-band EQ for ultimate sound shaping.

User comments…
I was not sure about the reputation of Behringer but then just went ahead with the purchase and ordered a Behringer K900FX 90-Watt 3-Channel PA System / Keyboard amplifier. I also checked the Roland KC-150 stereo mixing keyboard amplifier, but then the Behringer amp is more affordable, and more wattage too. You can easily connect 2 microphones and one instrument like the piano or guitar. Instead of a music instrument you can even attach your computer or iPod, and turn it into a karaoke system. The Behringer K450FX 45-Watt 3-Channel PA System/Keyboard amp is a lesser powerful version of the Behringer K900FX amp. – Jeff
I bought a Behringer 180FX keyboard amp but have found it completely gutless for a 180 watt amp. It has plenty of effects but at the cost of power. I have tried to get in touch with Behringer themselves but never got a reply from them. I play in a blues band and am easily blasted out by any other of the members of the band and they don't play that loud. – Anonymous
The Behringer 90W 3-Channel Keyboard Amp just passes as a practice amp. Sound quality is very average even using the EQ. Lacks midrange. I've had it for about 18 months (bought new) and the effects board has already developed an intermittent failure. Very loud squeal. No rough handling here. The amp has been handled like eggs and doesn't have a scratch. You don't get something for nothing…these amps are built to a price. Seriously, if a keyboard player is looking for an entry level amp, even though it's tempting, I would hold off (use an old stereo/headphones at home for practice) and save an extra bit of money and purchase one of the more established brands. Roland, Peavey etc. If you are serious about progressing your keyboard playing in the long term, a more robust and quality sounding amp will last a lifetime. – Anonymous
I bought a Behringer KT108 ultratone keyboard amplifier for my digital piano. It is sufficient for piano bar setting and enough to balance my vocals with my piano. So if you want something for a small place (for limited volume situations and not for a big auditorium) then the Behringer KT108 ultratone keyboard amp is a good value for money amp. – SME
Behringer has a wide range of keyboard amps for different budgets. Behringer amplifiers are compact, extremely solid, well designed and give excellent sound. They are very easy to use as well, so if you intend to buy a keyboard amplifier, consider the Behringer keyboard amp.

Grim Joggers, a side-scrolling running game from 10tons Ltd, is now available from the app store. Though it introduces the new mechanic of controlling an entire group of runners as opposed to just a single sprinter, it fails to do much else to really impress us.
Grim Joggers Pros:
- New gameplay mechanic introduced to tiresome genre
- Simple and responsive controls
- GameCenter integration for leaderboards and achievements
Grim Joggers Cons:
- Obstacles are difficult to pick out from busy background
- Difficult to last more than a minute
Grim Joggers contains 3 levels with differing environments and level-specific obstacles. All but the first are locked from the start, with subsequent levels opening up once you reach a certain point in the current level. You are in control of the lead runner always. If the lead runner dies, the next in line becomes the leader and your control shifts to him. Obstacles are avoided by jumping and/or double-jumping, which is accomplished by tapping or double-tapping the screen. The terrain consists of multi-level tracks, which allow your runners to get separated and come back together often. This often results in the separated members of the group meeting an unavoidable fate. Spikes, walls, fire, mine carts, polar bears and the like are positioned throughout the levels to make your morning jog that much more treacherous. A handful of fountains placed within the level allow you to increase your score multiplier for each runner that passes through. When your final runner bites the dust, you receive a score that represents the kcal you've burned as a group. You also receive a fun fact regarding weight loss with regard to your kcal number.
Graphically, the game has a fun old-school look that works just fine in this genre. Our biggest issue is that the perils blend with the backdrop and make it difficult to discern one from the other. We're not sure if this was by design to up the difficulty or if it's just a result of trying to jam too much stuff into the environment, but it was a bit irksome nonetheless. The soundtrack was pleasant to listen to, despite its repetitiveness. The only controls are the taps to jump, which were very responsive and easy to use.
Replay value is mediocre, as the game failed to really grab us for more than 5 minutes. GameCenter integration allows for global leaderboards to compare your best runs with those of players around the world. Each level also contains a half dozen achievements to earn, from surviving for a period of time to dying in a certain fashion. Multiple profiles allow more than one person to use the same device, and a wide range of statistics are maintained to explore at your leisure. If you can't get enough of this genre, you'll likely find a good deal of enjoyment in this $0.99 offering. Grim Joggers receives a 3.5-Dimple score.

Do it. I did many pier projects in the Northeast and there are lots of Environmental hurdles anytime we needed to do anything in the water. The contractor should be aware if they are even able to obtain an environmental permit for what they are proposing (constructing jetties). I don't see it happening, but who knows, maybe the environmental folks are also on their payroll lol

Contact your local Surfrider Chapter ASAP. This is part of what they do, help protect our beloved surfing resources.
Apr 2, 2013, 03:13 PM #13
its good to see some people know what theyr talking about.swellinfo nailed it on the head,contact surfrider.i dont live in ri,but i do know the cons of jetty systems.all we have here in the northeast are beachbreaks,sandbars.when they take out the sandbars,kiss your local waves goodbye.i see some kids think jettys make surf better,thats not true.sometimes the only wave u can surf here is near a jetty.thats because sands built up around it.but jettys also cause beach erosion.the ocean fixes itself.when u have long jettys blocking the natural currents,it destroys any sandbar that remains.i surf a spot with no jettys,and it seems like its the only spot with a sandbar.but after sandy rearanged the sea floor,sandbars are everywhere.but dont expect them to last.once they start digging out the shorebreak,all we are left with is a steep drop off and pounding shorebreak.i hope you guys in ri can stop this
Apr 2, 2013, 03:24 PM #14
take a deep breath and calm down. the beauty of bureaucratic systems is that you can use them to your benefit if you do your homework. for a project like this there has got to be a million regs and the obligatory public hearings. Get organized and then figure out ways to slow or stop this project from moving forward.

We need everyone's help...I can't express in words how important this one spot is so vital to our entire surf culture here on Aquidneck Island.
Apr 2, 2013, 03:41 PM #17
keep contact local though. if the reps see most of the emails coming from outside the area they will chalk it up to 'out of state agitators' and ignore your issue. Look a that Beater fight last year in OCMD as a good example. The locals stood up and worked with the govt to craft a good compromise.

I certainly hope the proposed construction can be prevented. Quite ironic that the wave in question is "guarded" by some miserable locals that make a point to be unfriendly to any outsiders that pay a visit.
Let's see it boys! How bout focusing a bit of that energy into a show of solidarity/sense for a good cause?!

I use WP as a site with static front page http://www.thinktallfilms.com/
and as a blog http://thinktallfilms.com/blog/
I thought WP would automatically create a feed but that doesn't work http://thinktallfilms.com/feed/
I am trying to register it with sites such as feedburner but it obviously doesn't work without a feed URL.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

During the past five years, only 37 percent of federal workers
have been satisfied with their agency's teleworking arrangements, according to Government Executive's "Management Matters" column.
As a result, the article recommends that telework managing
officers ask employees how much telework is appropriate, provide a framework
for performance and develop a plan to help teleworkers mitigate potential
morale issues.
For instance, because only some employees are eligible for telework, it is important to prevent a subculture of haves and have-nots by asking teleworkers to be flexible and responsive to their nontelecommuting co-workers.

I had to fight to get my current supervisor to let be telework. Only the telework law passing got it for me. And I'm only allowed to telework 1 day every 2 weeks! That's not right. I should at least be able to telework once a week. At my old govt. job I could telework once a week and work 4 ten hour days on top of that. So I always had a 3 day weekend. I went into work on telework days for meetings; and when I didn't have enough work to take home. Can't work 4 ten hour days at this newer job either. Bumper. Got promotion though.
The notion that the 40 hour workweek, regardless of where the work is done, should be the measuring stick for productivity is senseless to me. Why not focus on productivity as the measure of a successful employee. I don't ever recall my commitments or evaluations being determined by how many hours I work. I get evaluated on my accomplishments.
I love teleworking. I get so much more done and feel the quality of my work is better. At work I get interrupted a lot at home only occasional when the dog needs out. Which is rare. Sometimes I sit for so long I am stiff when I do get up because of no interruptions. I set an alarm so I can get up and walk every so often. I had my knee replaced and it still gets stiff now and then. How people can not work at home with effeciently is beyond me. They must be people that really don't care about their job. The biggest problem I have with teleworking is trying to get a hold of my supervisor. We are required to be "on line" with the communicator but the supervisor does not have to be. Never know when they are in the office or home working or sick. This of course is a management problem and need to have GOOD supervisors to start with. All in all I enjoy teleworking and the peace and quiet it brings.
Telework gives people flexibility. Thats the key. Yes it does require a certain discipline as well. But lots of times while your sleeping, I;m working. There have been many emails sent out after midnight in my cue while my co-workers are in bed im sure of that. So those who think that teleworkers are slackers or don't actually work could be right in some instances like the post that stated those that slack in the office will slack at home as well is a true statement I guess. But telework gives one the option to not be pigeon holed into working from 6:30am to 3pm and sticking strictly to those particular hours...you have the flexibility of being able to work your 8 hours when you want to work them if it fits your schedule to work them at 6:30-3pm or you want to work 6:30-10:30 and then 1-5pm as long as you work your scheduled 8 hours. But I agree I always give more hours than I actually get paid to work no matter what so it doesn't matter whether I am working in the office or out on telework. But no matter what you do have to have integrity to make any system work wouldn't you agree!
Telework works in my agency. Employees are reporting that we get more done at home than at work. We're saving gas and helping the environment by staying off the road. I agree if people are slackers in the office they'll be slackers at home and shouldnn't have satisfactory evals anyway which are required to work telework.

Stevenson-Fonfara Early Results: Charlo, Alvarez Win Big
Bell Centre, Montreal, Canada - Jermell Charlo moved to within one fight of challenging for a 154 lb. title following a sound 12-round points win over Charlie Ohta in their semifinal eliminator.
Scores were 118-109 (twice) and 115-111 for Charlo, who scored his second landslide win of the year as he advances up the alphabet rankings.
The bout was one way for the most part, save for Charlo going down in round three - courtesy of a straight right hand that caught him while off balance - and a point deduction in round nine for excessive low blows.
Charlo was steady with his jab and straight right hand, causing swelling under both eyes of Ohta, a New Yorker who now lives and trains out of Tokyo, Japan.
With the win, Charlo (24-0, 11KO) advances to the #2 contender position in the International Boxing Federation (IBF) rankings. The super welterweight contender, where twin brother Jermall also competes, caps a big week that included his 24th birthday.
Ohta falls to 24-2-1 (16KO) with the loss. The 32-year old, who trains with tough-as-nails lightweight Nihito Arawaka, was unbeaten in his past 19 bouts dating back to 2008 prior to the elimination bout.
Hot junior middleweight contender Julian Williams (16-0-1, 10KOs) knocked out Michael Medina (26-5-2, 19KOs) in the eight round. Williams was outworking and outhitting Medina in the fight. Williams started doing some serious damage in the fourth, when he let his hands go and blasted away on Medina's head and body. In the second half of the contest, it was all Williams with the big shots, more accurate punches and far more combinations. During the eight, Williams landed three hard shots to put Medina down for the count.
Rising light heavyweight contender Eleider Alvarez (15-0, 8KO's) won a ten round unanimous decision over Alexander Johnson (15-2, 6KO's). All three judges saw it 97-92. The fight was fought at a slow pace for the most part. Alvarez scored a knockdown in the fifth, but didn't do much to follow-up. Alvarez outboxed Johnson the rest of the way with little to no resistance.

Today Microsoft launched Azure App Services, an exciting new umbrella platform for app developers that subsumes the existing Azure Websites (renamed Web Apps) and Azure Mobile Services (renamed Mobile Apps), as well as adding two more app services – Logic Apps and API Apps. The idea is to provide a much richer consolidated PaaS development experience that combines web applications, mobile back-ends and APIs with long-running workflows and tighter integration with external SaaS products.
All these new app types can now be hosted together under the same App Service Plan (previously a Web Hosting Plan) and share eachother's data and features, for example Mobile Apps can now use Azure Web Jobs, a feature previously only available to Azure Websites. The end result will be better integration across all the web/mobile dev PaaS services and lower costs through the new shared hosting model, Websites and Mobile Services will no longer be billed separately.
The two new services, Logic Apps and API Apps are closely related. Logic Apps are managed, trigger-based workflows that integrate external web services using "connectors", service adapters implemented using API Apps. API Apps are just regular REST APIs – like those built using ASP.NET Web API – except they're discoverable via standard API metadata in a format called Swagger. This metadata describes services exposed by an API so its features can be discoverd and consumed by Logic App workflows or other apps. The API metadata also allows API client libraries to be generated automatically by Visual Studio, courtesy of the new Azure SDK.
Although some of the pieces that make up Azure App Services are still rough around the edges – the Logic Apps designer, for example, is very promising but still needs a lot of work – overall this is a fantastic evolution of the Azure dev platform that we can continue to use to deliver fantastic mobile and web apps to our customers. If you want to find out more, check out the four new vids from Azure Friday covering each of the new services.

The Spider-Man & Wolverine Show
The key for reading this book is looking at it with eyes totally without prejudice or a made mind about it, just read the book and let the nonsense flow from it, because that´s what´s happening in this issue: pure nonsense and it´s great! Aaron keeps delivering great and fun dialogues, while Kubert keeps presenting amazing art, capturing all the narrative in the panels. Ponsor´s colors are so beautiful and it really boosts Adam´s art (there aren´t many scenarios in this issue, it´s focused more in the characters and their actions, which gives lots of details, like face expressions, movements).This is the reckoning, this is the showdown between Logan & Peter against Czar & Big Murder and the fight is hilarious. I don´t want to spoil much, but because of the main villain in this series there´s so much crazyness going on that if you read this book expecting something serious or at least coherent you will have a terrible result. This book is pure entertainment, so damn funny, totally one of the best works of Jason Aaron in Marvel, way better than his ongoing Wolverine series and he has a grasp in the characters that´s impressive: he does a crack wise ridiculous Spider-Man so classical, yet very uptdated. I´m really enjoying this mini series and can´t wait to read the final issue. Highly recommended!

#1 UPDATE Employee
Minor clarification...
AUTHOR: Former Instructor - ()
SUBMITTED: Friday, August 02, 2013POSTED: Friday, August 02, 2013
I have been a CDI employee (instructor) for almost 10 years now, and will soon be happily unemployed. Why? Because I cannot stand to work for such an unethical company, president, regional VPs, and campus directors... to say nothing of all the lies told to students by the admission reps.
When I was first hired - it was with the old CDI (Canadian owned and grown), before they were bought out by Corrintian College Inc of the US, then micromanaged into the ground only to be sold to the Eminata group whose owner has a fake (honorary) degree - and just uses the local companies as a front to rip-off the Canadian govermnent (via student loans that will most likely never be paid back) and to send the money to Korea to show what a wonderful "Christian" he is.
The old motto used to be: "When student's succeed - We succeed." Which meant the business success was built of helping students do well and then refer their friends and acquaintances.
The new motto of: "We change lives through education." Basically means for a lot of students that they get a second rate education (at best) and end up with a huge student loan to pay back. Yup, big lesson learned.
If the students are fortunate to get a great instructor (and there are lots) their instructor will probably get minimal support from the college heirarchy, and will probably not last long. When I was first hired, the person who had been there the shortest amount of time had seven years seniority. Now, the students are lucky if their instructors actually stay to teach the whole program and most instructors only teach a few courses or only last for a few months until they can find a better job.
I could say a whole lot more, but will be saving my ten years worth of dirt for possibly a wrongful dismissal law suite.
How did such a great company go so wrong? I think when the focus changed from quality to greed - with the new owners - everything was doomed from that point on.
Do some students succeed? Yes, absolutely based on their own efforts. Any degree or diploma is just a foot in the door to a job. From that point on, it is always up to the student to prove themself and their learning. I just wish the college bwould become more student focused again, and actually help the students succeed, rather than the graduates not even being able to get practicums as "CDI is not or (no longer) recognized." (A very common experience for students to hear from prospective employers.)

CDI College - bby was awesome

SUBMITTED: Thursday, February 28, 2013POSTED: Thursday, February 28, 2013
Just a few points with your post though, no school provides you with your books. I have friends in different universities and colleges. None of them provided them wth their books either.
Curtis, I have found that you cant just submit resumes and expect people to call you. You must go outt here and try and ask people you knw!. We have a prettty horrible economy, handing out resumes isnt enough. Everyone is having issues finding a job no matter where theyve gone to school.

A mom is being told to have her toddler sent to a speech therapist but wants to understand the benefits of doing so first. Amalah has very strong opinions about this.
It's often said that girls on the autism spectrum "present differently," but what exactly does that mean? Today we're looking at both generalities and a few hallmark specifics of how autistic girls are unlike their male counterparts.
A mom needs help and support for herself as she comes to terms with her son's varied special needs diagnoses.
My son is about to be evaluated for a speech delay and I've never felt so alone.
At what point — when special education and speech therapy and other services are the norm in your child's life — do you explain to them that they're different? And how?

Campbellsville University's sports information department claimed 10 Media and Publications Contests awards at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Sports Information Directors Association Convention, according to a news release.
Anderson County native Jordan Alves leads the department as the school's sports information director.
The awards keep rolling in for Anderson County High School softball players.
Senior Mia Aldridge and junior Bailey Curry have both been named to First Team All-State by the Kentucky Softball Coaches Association.
It is the second consecutive year that Curry, a catcher, has been named to the first team. She was a second team selection in 2014.
Aldridge was a third team selection last season.
Anderson County High School softball player Mia Aldridge continues to pull in the honors. Aldridge, who graduated last month, has been named to the Kentucky All-Star team, which will play the Tennessee All-Stars on Wednesday, June 29 at South Warren High School in Bowling Green.
Aldridge, who will attend Campbellsville University, was selected as a pitcher and outfielder for the team.
Aldridge becomes the first Anderson County player selected for the all-star games since Courtney Turpin in 2010.
I can't remember ever writing a column like this one in more than three decades at the keyboard, but that's good.
Or at least I think it should be new ground when I talk about the future of Anderson County High School softball.
They'd endured so much in their quest for a state softball championship.
They'd gone into a season without some of the key cogs from their Final Four run of 2015. A few had graduated. That's normal.
But then a few expected to fill key roles opted to stay off the diamond in 2016. It happens.
Yet Anderson County began the season ranked as the sixth best team in Kentucky and a heavy favorite to win its third straight Eighth Region championship.
But the Lady Cats' sights were much higher.
OWENSBORO – There are not words to describe how quickly and completely fortunes changed for Anderson County's softball team last Friday.
East Jessamine rallied for three runs with two out in the bottom of the seventh inning to oust Anderson County, 10-9, from the Worth/KHSAA State Softball Tournament after a controversial call gave the Jaguars new life.
OWENSBORO – The dateline for this story notes the city where the state high school softball tournament was being played last week, but it could just as well have been Lawrenceburg, Shelbyville, Taylorsville, Bedford or any other town where the Anderson County Lady Bearcats played this spring.
Chances are their biggest fan was there.
Well, if not the biggest fan, at least the most recognizable one.

I am new to using any kind of e-commerce plug in. I would like to integrate a plugin (if possible) into my current theme.
-I want it to have a customer sign up/ log-in feature, where it can store their account information.
-I also would like the plugin that's best suited for "Service" based items (i.e. Web Design, Maintenance, Etc). Maybe one that has ability to "tick" boxes for optional "add-ons" for particular service items?
-Another important feature would be different payment methods.
-Also, let's say a customer "requests a quote". If they accept that quote, is there a way I can send them a "link"(or something) for that customized service? For example, when they login to their account, I would like for them to see the "quote" I offered, then have the option to "click" it and pay for it. Is that a possible option with a plugin?
I know these are a lot of questions, but I am kind of new at this CMS and would like some advice. I really appreciate some thoughtful input.

In May 2011 Groton voters defeated a $133 million building plan to modernize the public school infrastructure with a combination of school closings, renovation and new construction. It was a 3-to-1 margin of defeat, voters finding it too costly even with the state kicking in half the cost.
The problems it sought to solve did not go away and two years later a new plan is taking shape. While it is too soon to speculate on price, town officials have to be mindful of costs given the reaction of voters last time.
This week the task force working on the plan for future school construction met with the Board of Education. A majority of school board members voiced support for a proposal that would share some significant things in common with the last plan. The project defeated by voters in 2011 would have reduced the number of schools in town from 11 to 9, while the current tentative plan would cut the number of schools from 10 to 8. After the May 2011 referendum defeat, the school board voted to close Fitch Middle School and consolidated middle school services into two schools.
Now a majority of school board members are discussing the construction of a new middle school. This would allow for renovation of the existing middle schools for use as elementary schools. Groton needs the elementary space because several of the existing schools are old, outdated and arguably not worthy of more investment. The town may close as many as three - Claude Chester, S.B. Butler and Pleasant Valley.
Absent from the discussion was the proposal for early education centers that were part of the plan in 2011.
Certainly nothing is finalized. The School Facilities Initiative Task Force expects to come up with multiple options and seek public input before settling on a recommendation. Trying to build consensus behind whatever plan is ultimately presented to voters will be a major challenge.
Residents can get a firsthand update as to where things stand when the task force meets Thursday at 6:30 p.m. in the Town Hall Annex. Theirs is important work.
