The best start in NHL history is over. The Chicago Blackhawks finally left the ice without a point � but with their heads held high.
The Blackhawks were stunned 6-2 by the struggling Colorado Avalanche on Friday night. It was their first loss in regulation and ended a remarkable run in which they earned at least one point in their first 24 games, an NHL record.
�We�re proud of it, but it�ll be nice to move on now,� defenseman Duncan Keith said. �It�s hockey, we�ve lost games before in our lives. It�s not like we�re going to sit here and cry.�
Instead, they�ll sit back and celebrate, said coach Joel Quenneville, who told his team afterward �that they should be very proud of what they accomplished. They found different ways to win, night in and night out, and everyone contributed to something that hadn�t been done.
�It�s a great feather in our cap, but let�s move forward here and try to get better. Certainly it was a lot of fun up to today.�
The Blackhawks (21-1-3) hadn�t lost in regulation since a 6-1 rout by Nashville on March 25, 2012, and their last loss in regulation on the road came more than a year ago, with a 5-1 defeat at St. Louis on March 6, 2012.
Dating back to last year�s regular season, the streak was 30 games.
Chicago�s overall points streak was the second longest in NHL history. The 1979-80 Philadelphia Flyers set the league record with a staggering 35-game unbeaten streak that included 25 wins and 10 ties � all in the same season.
Ending it was a jolt of adrenaline for the Avalanche, who started the night in last place in the Northwest Division.
�It�s special, said Matt Duchene, who scored four points. �It�s obviously something no one had done yet. But what a run by them. I mean, first of all, congratulations to them. What a run they had. I don�t think they�re going to slow down because of this. But it�s pretty special. It�s a good feeling in here. We�re pretty happy.�
Ryan O�Reilly got his first goal since his contract dispute was resolved more than a week ago and assisted on another goal in a four-goal onslaught in the second period that turned a 1-1 tie into a laugher, and Paul Stastny collected three points.
Duchene, John Mitchell and Jamie McGinn also put pucks past Corey Crawford in the second period for the Avalanche, who had lost six of their previous seven, including a 3-2 heartbreaker at Chicago 48 hours earlier.
Crawford (11-1-3) allowed five goals on 19 shots before being replaced in net by Ray Emery to start the third period.
�I didn�t have it (Friday night),� Crawford said. �Didn�t give our guys a chance.�
Semyon Varlamov had 30 saves for Colorado.
The Avalanche nearly ended the spectacular streak in Chicago on Wednesday night before the Blackhawks pulled out the win when Daniel Carcillo scored the tiebreaking goal with 49.3 seconds left. Chicago was skating without three key forwards and playing its second game in two nights then.
There was no such comeback Friday night at the Pepsi Center, where a good portion of the sellout crowd was rooting for the Blackhawks, who hadn�t allowed more than four goals in a game this season or even trailed by more than two goals until the Avs� spectacular second period.
�It�s a great confidence booster,� Duchene said. �It shows us we can play with anybody in this league.�
The crowd chanted, �End of streak! End of streak!� over the final minutes after P.A. Parenteau�s 10th goal of the season made it 6-2.
Bryan Bickell�s goal with 11:07 pulled the Blackhawks to 5-2, and he nearly scored again from the same spot 90 seconds later, but Varlamov smothered the shot, and that was that.
The teams got into a scuffle with 5:04 left after Bickell squared off with Gabriel Landeskog, who had checked Keith in the back.
Chicago�s Jonathan Toews got the scoring started when he knocked the puck past Varlamov after a turnover on a give-and-go with forward Marian Hossa, who returned from an upper-body injury.
Colorado (9-10-4) tied it when Stastny, who was between the circles, tipped a pass from Duchene into the net. It was a rare power play goal for the Avalanche, who came into the game ranked 29th in the league with just 82 shots when skating with a man advantage.
Duchene�s goal between Crawford�s legs made it 2-1. Just 33 seconds later, Mitchell scored on an assist from O�Reilly, who was signed to a two-year $10 million deal last week after the Avalanche matched Calgary�s offer sheet following a nasty contract dispute.
O�Reilly�s goal came on a slap shot from the top of the right circle 4 seconds into another power play. Duchene set him up with a pass after Stastny won the faceoff.
Duchene got his third assist when he dug out a loose puck from the boards in a scramble with Keith and kicked it out to McGinn, who put made it 5-1.
�They had a good pace to their game, and they were definitely on (Friday night),� Quenneville said.
Remarkable though it was, the streak had become somewhat of a burden for the Blackhawks.
�It�s gained a lot of momentum over the last little while, and our opponents, they treated it like it was a very important game,� Quenneville said. �You look at the standings and everyone has a meaningful game, but it seemed like there was added incentive as we�ve gone along. We welcomed the challenge.�
After a while, it seemed the streak had taken on a life of its own.
�I�d say the last handful of games the talk about it kind of got out of control,� Toews said. �The guys in our locker room, we always focused on the same thing, being prepared to play our team game. We never really got distracted by that. Maybe it does take a little bit of pressure off us and we can sit back and look at the good things we�ve done.�
The Blackhawks� run comes with somewhat of an asterisk because they actually lost three games along the way � all in shootouts. Under NHL rules, that�s still worth a point, but that makes it different from what the Flyers accomplished nearly a quarter-century ago.
During that streak, Philadelphia won 25 games and tied 10. There was no overtime until the playoffs, and the shootout was still a far-off creation. If the teams were tied after 60 minutes, that�s how it ended. Each got a point.
Nowadays, both teams still receive a point if the game is tied at the end of regulation. Then, the team that scores in a five-minute, four-skaters-a-side overtime period or wins the shootout gets an extra point.
�It�s over,� Crawford said. �Move on to the next game.�

One day years ago, my wife and I were traveling to New England through northeastern Pennsylvania. We had picked out a motel that seemed easily accessible from a travel guide.
However, we got lost. I pulled into the first spot that might offer help, a convenience store. I asked the jovial, young, bright-eyed guy behind the counter for directions to my chosen destination. He gave me the directions readily and said, "Drive carefully."
I hesitated half a minute, and then pointing to my map, said, "Shouldn't we turn left here instead of right?"
No, he said, you need to turn right.
Again I questioned that, "According to this map, it seems to indicate left."
"Well, you better turn right," he said. "Would I lie to you? How long have I known you?" Then we both burst into laughter.
Leaving the store, I did turn right and I found the motel just as he had said in the first place.
Years before the humorous experience in northeast Pennsylvania, while I was taking my basic training for the Army at Fort Ord in California, near Monterrey, I was chosen to be a temporary non-commissioned officer and was instructed to lead a squad in minor training and maintenance assignments. One of my exercises was to have the men clean up a classroom to make it ready for the following day's work.
Together we were setting desks and chairs in their proper places after sweeping, mopping the floor and emptying the trash. We, the trainees, were to call the non-commissioned as well as commissioned officers by the title of sir.
About a half-hour after we had started our work, a sergeant came in to the room and called everyone to attention. He called out, in his sharp and commanding voice, "Who is in charge here?"
I replied, "I am, sir."
"What are you instructed to achieve this evening?" he asked.
I told him, and he replied in an elevated voice, "What is that in your hand, soldier?"
"A broom, sir," I replied.
He said to me, "Your job is to see that this classroom is made ready for use, not to make it ready by your own hands. You are here to instruct the men, not to do the work for them."
He turned on the heel of his spit-polished boot and left the room, saying, "You will be reported tomorrow morning to the master sergeant."
I had not done what I was told to do.
A month or so later while on maneuvers in the mountains of Fort Hunter Leggett, rugged country some miles south of Fort Ord, my squad and I were prepared to make camp for the night. One of my duties was to establish a sequence for men to be on guard duty. I figured the least desirable time to be on guard was about 2 a.m. so I put my name down there and proceeded to give specific locations and times for each of the other men in the squad.
The men would not accept my list of guard assignments, saying, "You should not stand guard at all! You'll get into trouble again."
I knew immediately that they were correct, so I took out my name and rearranged the whole roster.
The men taught me a lesson, at least for that occasion, but there's more.
Several days later, we were advised that the entire regiment, including our squad, was to go on a 15-mile march at night. It was cold and rainy, and although we started each day with a cold shower, we were not accustomed to the weather.
Ours was a heavy weapons unit, equipped with 50-caliber machine guns, 81-mm mortars and 91-mm rifles. Each of these weapons was heavy and consisted of two or more parts. Each part of a weapon had to be carried by one or more soldiers. True to form, I frequently offered to relieve the men temporarily of their burdens. Fortunately for me, during the entire 15 miles I was not caught doing a soldier's work.
I have found throughout my whole life that doing what you're told not to do can sometimes be a good and helpful thing.

Soul searching, heartache and self-discovery can be common themes in Broadway shows, but this critically-acclaimed show also happens to have a Green Day score. The national tour of American Idiot makes a stop in Las Vegas at The Smith Center June 11-16. Based on the rock opera album of the same name, the Tony Award-winning show follows three friends in their efforts to break out of suburban ennui and define themselves in a post 9/11 existence.
You may have listened to the American Idiot album a thousand times, but when you hear songs like 21 Guns and Wake Me Up When September Ends within this emotional storyline and through the voices of this dynamic cast, it's like hearing each song for the first time. Located just north of the Strip, the newly minted Smith Center is one of the premier places for Broadway shows in Vegas right now. $24-$190.
If you're looking for less of a theater experience, and more of a Green Day punk show, the American Idiot Band performs a An Evening with Idiots, a special, 90-minute free show at Red Rock Ranch Resort, June 13, 10:30 p.m. Musicians from the show will perform from the entire Green Day catalog, not just songs from American Idiot. That means you'll likely get to hear your favorites from albums such as Dookie and Nimrod.

A cross check from behind isn't just a cross check. Taking a crosscheck unprepared to the back is 1000x worse then taking one while battling in front of the net. You try taking a kidney shot without warning, and then compare it to a cross check where you can brace yourself.
Honestly I'm amazed more people don't understand how dirty this play was. I don't like bringing hockey experience into it, but as someone who has played a fairly high level, and watched hockey for a long time, this play is dirty, and in no way is it "not that bad". I'm not saying Benn should get 5 games, but I do think he should get a game, the 5 minutes had no affect on the Edmonton game, so I believe he should serve a full game. The NHL can't just let people blind side players from the back with cross checks. It's a dirty play that has no place in the game.
Crosby does this routinely.

"The b–– is back, and you can kiss my a–," says a sassy Dina Manzo, who makes a return to the show, which premieres July 13 (8 p.m. ET) on Bravo. (A preview airs June 1.)
Manzo's marital and relationship woes look to take center stage, as do Teresa Giudice and husband Joe's legal woes.
"I'm in this nightmare I can't get out of," says Giudice, who recently pleaded guilty to four counts of fraud.
But most impacted by her parents' drama is Gia, the Giudice' 13-year-old daughter, who breaks down numerous times in the exclusive clip, before telling her father she wants to be a "criminal lawyer" when she grows up.
"We need them," Joe says.
Sexy couple Melissa and Joe Gorga are back – and now in the garbage business – while Kathy Wakile, her cannoli (and Rosie) return and look to do battle with Giudice, who remarks, "How do you spell b––? K-A-T-H-Y."
And although Jersey veterans Jacqueline Laurita and Caroline Manzo have departed (Manzo will be starring in her own Bravo spinoff, Manzo'd with Children), there is double trouble to replace them.
Self-described "b––y-nice" identical twin sisters Nicole Mauriello and Teresa Aprea look to add loads of drama – and humor – to the show.
"A woman only needs two things," remarks Mauriello, who owns one of the most prestigious Italian restaurants in Little Italy with her husband, Rino. "Dunkin Donuts and oral sex."
Breast cancer survivor Amber Marchese, a longtime friend of Gorga and the twins, also joins the show, and her emotional battle will be part of season 6.
"The risk of not seeing my children grow up ... It's just awful every single day," says a tearful Marchese, who also looks to stir up her own trouble on the show.
As the clip ends, and the yelling, fighting and lies escalate, Manzo sums up the show and season, over clinking ice cubes: "That's what we do in Jersey."

on January 11, 2013 - 12:01 AM
It's not too late to get a flu shot and anyone who hasn't already gotten one should do so quickly, as the country is experiencing an early outbreak that has reached the crisis stage in some cities.
Medical professionals nationwide are urging anyone at least 6 months of age to get the flu vaccine as places such as Boston are dealing with a local crisis. The mayor of Boston has declared a public health emergency as hospitals there are being deluged with patients. A hospital in Allentown, Pa., set up a tent to handle the steady stream of flu patients.
Statewide, more than 19,000 flu cases have been reported this year, compared to just over 4,000 last year. Erie County, fortunately, has not been hit hard, so far. Officials don't have an actual number of cases, because many people do not see a doctor or have a lab test. But the testing that is done shows that over the past three weeks, there has been a sharp increase in the number of confirmed cases of influenza.
Media outlets have been carrying heartbreaking stories of deaths among the very young and the oldest patients. Nationally, deaths and hospitalizations remain below epidemic thresholds. That may not hold, though, with the peak season approaching.
Over a period of 31 seasons between 1976 and 2007, estimates of flu-associated deaths in the United States range from a low of about 3,000 to a high of about 49,000 people, according to information provided by the Erie County Health Department.
Those 65 and older are particularly vulnerable, with figures showing that during a regular season about 90 percent of deaths occur in this age group. The youngest and those with weakened immune systems are also at high risk. It's important to contact a primary care physician when it comes to concerns about flu symptoms.
But there is hope. There is plenty of flu vaccine available and it is effective against the strains the medical community is seeing. This year's flu shot is well-matched to the H3N2 strain – the predominant flu strain circulating.
There are two types of vaccines available, the traditional injection or a nasal spray. It takes about two weeks after vaccination for the body to form the antibodies that provide protection against the influenza viruses.
The county Health Department has information on flu clinics. Pharmacies also offer flu shots at a minimal charge. Federally funded health centers offer flu shots for those without health insurance.
Flu shots are not perfect protection, but they reduce the chances of being stricken, and that means fewer people spreading the virus around to others. The vaccine can go a long way in preventing the dreaded fever, cough, runny nose, head and body aches and fatigue.

Cubs Extinguish Blaze, but Dragons Burn Cougars at Fitch Park
Darnell McDonald singled twice, doubled, walked, scored twice, and knocked-in a run, Taiwan Easterling singled, doubled, reached base on an HBP, stole a base, drove-in two runs, and made two outstanding catches, Jeffrey Baez drove-in three runs with a two-run double and a bases-loaded HBP, and Dan Vogelbach crushed a tape-measure two-run home run, leading the Daytona Cubs to a 10-7 victory over the Bakerfield Blaze (Cincinnati Reds Hi-A affiliate) on Field #3, and Starling Peralta celebrated his return to the Cubs organization with 3.1 IP of one-hit shutout ball, Gioskar Amaya singled and tripled, and Dong-Yub Kim singled twice, stole a base, and scored a run, but it wasn't enough as Joe Hudson (Reds 2012 6th round draft pick - Notre Dame) slugged a HR over the LF fence and onto Center Street to lead the Dayton Dragons (Reds Low-A affiliate) to a 3-1 victory over the Kane County Cougars on Field #2, in Cactus League Minor League Camp game action this afternoon at Fitch Park in Mesa, AZ.
The game on Field #2 was extended an extra half-inning so that all of the Cubs pitchers could get their scheduled work.
Drew Carpenter and Darnell McDonald are assigned to the Iowa squad and Rob Whitenack and Austin Kirk are assigned to the Tennessee squad, but the quartet was left behind at Fitch Park as the I-Cubs and Smokies traveled to Goodyear where they played the Reds AA and AAA affiliates. All four saw action in the game on Field #3.
McDonald was a DH and got five Plate Apearances in the first five innings of the game, hitting 2nd in each inning. Carpenter started the game for Daytona, and was followed to the hill by Whitenack and Kirk. All three pitchers threw multiple innings. Whitenack walked four, hit a batter, and threw a WP in 3.2 IP as he continues to have difficulty throwing strikes, but Kirk had five punch-outs in 2.1 IP.
Because all of the Daytona innings were assigned to Iowa and Tennessee pitchers, Starling Peralta and Austin Reed were dropped down to the Kane County game to get their work (both are assigned to the Daytona squad).
Dillon Maples threw a two-inning "sim" game (30 pitches - 15 pitches per inning) versus players from the Boise/Mesa squad on Field #4.
The defensive gems of the day were turned-in by Daytona LF Taiwan Easterling, who made a spectacular diving catch in left-center field, and then another running catch on the warning track.

Thanks again for fantastic coverage of...well, virtually everyone in the Cubs system.
I hope Rob Whitenack finds his way back. It sounds like he's got a rough road ahead. I was able to ask him some questions about his TJ surgery at the Cubs Convention this year.
The star of that session wrt personality was Dallas Beeler. I'm rooting for his success too. How has he looked this spring?

Probably old news but...Baseball America says the cubs have...Released: RHP Ryan Hartman, RHP Su-Min Jung
and this commentary based on them acquiring Jose Dore from the Padres:
The Cubs have acquired a handful of Padres prospects in recent years, including Jose Dore ('10 eighth round; signed for $450,000), righthander Zach Cates ('10 third round; signed for $765,000) and first baseman Anthony Rizzo (no introduction necessary). This is no coincidence given that Chicago GM Jed Hoyer, senior VP of scouting and player development Jason McLeod and scouting director Jaron Madison acquired all three players when they manned the same posts in the Padres front office.

Manager Dale Sveum, pitching coach Chris Bosio, and top brass Jed Hoyer and Theo Epstein are all on board with Castillo's ability to be that building-block player. "He's come a long way in a short period of time," said Bosio. "He's a very talented guy with the arm, block-ability and throw-ability. His knowledge and aptitude have become a lot better."
What I've really disliked in
What I've really disliked in the recent past about the Cubs is being asked to watch a team full of journeymen. So it's nice to see the Cubs roster begin to take shape in the way of some home grown talent like Castro, Castillo, Barney, and I'll include Rizzo simply because TheoCorp has been stalking him all these years. Even if they don't have a great record, I can root for these guys and actually even give a damn. It even feels to me like Soriano is a Cub now. It was enjoyable watching him rise up to the challenge last year of becoming a better player.

Back in 2006 I saw Dunston at ST throwing bp to his young son off on the fields. I said to him "so you made him hit left handed." Shawon SR said "everyone says that, he did that on his own."
Does anybody know of any
Does anybody know of any video of Shawon Sr. really showing off his throwing arm at short? For example, as the middle man on a 4-6-3 double play or a rifle shot from deep in the hole? Any one of those throws that made you wince as that little white missile smacked into Mark Grace's mitt with enough force to fracture a metacarpal or two? Watching Grace catch a Dunston throw was an exercise in experiencing pain by proxy. You could hear the emphatic "POW" as it burned into the leather. Man, how I miss that!
I'd love to show my son video evidence of this and have not been successful in digging anything up. My best chance was the DVD of the Cubs' playoff game against the Giants in '89 -- the Mark Grace game -- there was only one play involving a Dunston throw and it wasn't one of his signature cannon shots. Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
if you go to You tube there
if you go to You tube there are several "the boys of Zimmer" videos. The one I watched had more Jerome Walton's hitting streak stuff but Shawon is there too. Might be on one of them.

First Cub victory at home this year for me!
Saw all four starters this year
RIP Arnie. We could use a lot more like you -- a man who succeeded and failed on his own terms, a true original, and, finally, a remarkable example of graciousness towards others.
Cubs finish 33 over at home. I was, personally, one game over at 3-2, which was one of my better years in a while.
I do hope that's the last time we see the Cardinals this year. A lot of power, which is dangerous, particularly in a short series, and they have really shut down KB all year.
Oh, and Jon Lester? Damn!
Yes. Boating accident at 3AM. Very sad, but stupid. Young men do stupid things.
lester puts 2 on and is taken out at 96 pitches. oh well.
edwards in.
2 out in the 7th, lester at 84 pitches, ross taken out for the standing O.
it's possible contreras will catch lester for another inning+.
What a weird day. Jose Fernandez and Arnold Palmer, but then Scully and, on a much more modest level, Ross....
d.ross gets his 2nd standing O on the night (last home game of the season)...hits HR #10...curtain call. baseball.
as a fan, he only "owes" us the game on the field and not getting in the way of others on his team being ready to play (imo).
it's exponentially worse to his family and friends, but this dude most likely had 15+ years of play left and even though he just turned 24 a couple months ago he had already established himself as a top guy in the game.

I know what you're trying to say, Charlie, that none of us feels what his loved ones must be feeling.
On the other hand, what makes a death like this tragic is precisely the loss, based on Fernandez's youth and brilliance, to the baseball world.
So, for example, we can say that Princess Diana's death meant more, in aggregate, to millions of admirers who didn't know her personally than to her loved ones.
boston pitching snags a couple of mlb team records...
"Over nine innings of play, Boston's staff struck out 11 straight Tampa Bay Rays hitters Sunday, breaking the major-league record for most consecutive strikeouts in a game.
The previous record was held by former New York Mets right-hander Tom Seaver, who struck out 10 straight hitters in 1970.
Not only that, but with a strikeout to end the ninth, sending the game into extras, Boston's staff also struck out an MLB-record 21 batters over nine innings."
What a loss to baseball, which I'm sure pales in comparison to the personal loss to his loved ones.
Somehow I am sensing alcohol was involved. The highest number of boating accidents by a wide margin...

§ 416.924b. Age as a factor of evaluation in the sequential evaluation process for children.
(a) General. In this section, we explain how we consider age when we decide whether you are disabled. Your age may or may not be a factor in our determination whether your impairment(s) meets or medically equals a listing, depending on the listing we use for comparison. However, your age is an important factor when we decide whether your impairment(s) is severe (see § 416.924(c)) and whether it functionally equals the listings (see § 416.926a). Except in the case of certain premature infants, as described in paragraph (b) of this section, age means chronological age.
(1) When we determine whether you have an impairment or combination of impairments that is severe, we will compare your functioning to that of children your age who do not have impairments.
(2) When we determine whether your impairment(s) meets a listing, we may or may not need to consider your age. The listings describe impairments that we consider of such significance that they are presumed to cause marked and severe functional limitations.
(i) If the listing appropriate for evaluating your impairment is divided into specific age categories, we will evaluate your impairment according to your age when we decide whether your impairment meets that listing.
(ii) If the listing appropriate for evaluating your impairment does not include specific age categories, we will decide whether your impairment meets the listing without giving consideration to your age.
(3) When we compare an unlisted impairment or a combination of impairments with the listings to determine whether it medically equals the severity of a listing, the way we consider your age will depend on the listing we use for comparison. We will use the same principles for considering your age as in paragraphs (a)(2)(i) and (a)(2)(ii) of this section; that is, we will consider your age only if we are comparing your impairment(s) to a listing that includes specific age categories.
(4) We will also consider your age and whether it affects your ability to be tested. If your impairment(s) is not amenable to formal testing because of your age, we will consider all information in your case record that helps us decide whether you are disabled. We will consider other generally acceptable methods consistent with the prevailing state of medical knowledge and clinical practice that will help us evaluate the existence and severity of your impairment(s).
(b) Correcting chronological age of premature infants. We generally use chronological age (that is, a child's age based on birth date) when we decide whether, or the extent to which, a physical or mental impairment or combination of impairments causes functional limitations. However, if you were born prematurely, we may consider you to be younger than your chronological age. When we evaluate the development or linear growth of a child born prematurely, we may use a "corrected" chronological age; that is, the chronological age adjusted by a period of gestational prematurity. We consider an infant born at less than 37 weeks' gestation to be born prematurely.
(1) We apply a corrected chronological age in these situations—
(i) When we evaluate developmental delay in premature children until the child's prematurity is no longer a relevant factor; generally no later than about chronological age 2 (see paragraph (b)(2) of this section);
(ii) When we evaluate an impairment of linear growth, such as under the listings in § 100.00 in appendix 1 of subpart P of part 404 of this chapter, until the child is 12 months old. In this situation, we refer to neonatal growth charts which have been developed to evaluate growth in premature infants (see paragraph (b)(2) of this section).
(2) We compute a corrected chronological age as follows—
(i) If you have not attained age 1, we will correct your chronological age. We compute the corrected chronological age by subtracting the number of weeks of prematurity (i.e., the difference between 40 weeks of full-term gestation and the number of actual weeks of gestation) from your chronological age. The result is your corrected chronological age.
(ii) If you are over age 1, have a developmental delay, and prematurity is still a relevant factor in your case (generally, no later than about chronological age 2), we will decide whether to correct your chronological age. Our decision will be based on our judgment and all the facts of your case. If we decide to correct your chronological age, we may correct it by subtracting the full number of weeks of prematurity or a lesser number of weeks. We will also decide not to correct your chronological age if we can determine from the evidence that your developmental delay is the result of your medically determinable impairment(s) and is not attributable to your prematurity.
(3) Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, we will not compute a corrected chronological age if the medical evidence shows that your treating source or other medical source has already taken your prematurity into consideration in his or her assessment of your development. Also, we will not compute a corrected chronological age when we find you disabled using the examples of functional equivalence based on low birth weight in § 416.926a(m)(6) or (7).

As long as my hand was there, arm reached out behind me almost out of socket, my fingers feeling his soft, warm cheek and a wet tear, he was still and quiet. After a while when I thought he had fallen asleep I tried to take my arm back to normal positioning, but he cried immediately! I reach back again, and instantly he's calm.
I didn't mind. It actually felt good to know that just my hand touching his face made everything all better. He just needed to know that I was near.
I remember moments as a child wanting to be held close by my mom or dad, feeling that security; and even now there is just something about that touch that hubby has when I scoot closer to him during church, or reach over to hold his hand when I am next to him in the car. There is something about a touch.
And many a time I call out to the Lord, just asking for His touch. Sometimes to heal. Most times to just know He's near.

John Coltrane
Share This
Despite a relatively brief career (he first came to notice as a sideman at age 29 in 1955, formally launched a solo career at 33 in 1960, and was dead at 40 in 1967), saxophonist
John Coltrane
was among the most important, and most controversial, figures in jazz. It seems amazing that his period of greatest activity was so short, not only because he recorded prolifically, but also because, taking advantage of his fame, the record companies that recorded him as a sideman in the 1950s frequently reissued those recordings under his name and there has been a wealth of posthumously released material as well. Since
was a protean player who changed his style radically over the course of his career, this has made for much confusion in his discography and in appreciations of his playing. There remains a critical divide between the adherents of his earlier, more conventional (if still highly imaginative) work and his later, more experimental work. No one, however, questions
's almost religious commitment to jazz or doubts his significance in the history of the music.
was the son of John R. Coltrane, a tailor and amateur musician, and Alice (Blair) Coltrane. Two months after his birth, his maternal grandfather, the Reverend William Blair, was promoted to presiding elder in the A.M.E. Zion Church and moved his family, including his infant grandson, to High Point, NC, where
grew up. Shortly after he graduated from grammar school in 1939, his father, his grandparents, and his uncle died, leaving him to be raised in a family consisting of his mother, his aunt, and his cousin. His mother worked as a domestic to support the family. The same year, he joined a community band in which he played clarinet and E flat alto horn; he took up the alto saxophone in his high school band. During World War II, his mother, aunt, and cousin moved north to New Jersey to seek work, leaving him with family friends; in 1943, when he graduated from high school, he too headed north, settling in Philadelphia. Eventually, the family was reunited there.
While taking jobs outside music,
briefly attended the Ornstein School of Music and studied at Granoff Studios. He also began playing in local clubs. In 1945, he was drafted into the navy and stationed in Hawaii. He never saw combat, but he continued to play music and, in fact, made his first recording with a quartet of other sailors on July 13, 1946. A performance of
Tadd Dameron
's "Hot House," it was released in 1993 on the Rhino Records anthology
The Last Giant
was discharged in the summer of 1946 and returned to Philadelphia. That fall, he began playing in the Joe Webb Band. In early 1947, he switched to
the King Kolax Band
. During the year, he switched from alto to tenor saxophone. One account claims that this was as the result of encountering alto saxophonist
Charlie Parker
and feeling the better-known musician had exhausted the possibilities on the instrument; another says that the switch occurred simply because

Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson
, who was an alto player, forcing
to play tenor. He moved on to
Jimmy Heath
's band in mid-1948, staying with the band, which evolved into the Howard McGhee All Stars until early 1949, when he returned to Philadelphia. That fall, he joined a big band led by
Dizzy Gillespie
, remaining until the spring of 1951, by which time the band had been trimmed to a septet. On March 1, 1951, he took his first solo on record during a performance of "We Love to Boogie" with

Duke Ellington
band, hired him. But he was fired because of his addiction in September 1954. He returned to Philadelphia, where he was playing, when he was hired by

After he became better known in the 1960s, Prestige and other labels began to repackage this work under his name, as if he had been the leader, a process that has continued to the present day.

on piano,
Wilbur Ware
on bass, and
Shadow Wilson
on drums. During this period, he developed a technique of playing several notes at once, and his solos began to go on longer. In August, he recorded material belatedly released on the Prestige albums
Lush Life
(1960) and
The Last Trane
(1965), as well as the material for
John Coltrane with the Red Garland Trio
, released later in the year. (It was later reissued under the title

Lush Life
The Last Trane
, and
The Believer
(1964). In February and March, he recorded
' album Milestones, released later in 1958. In between the sessions, he cut his third album to be released under his name alone,
, issued in September by Prestige. Also in March 1958, he cut tracks as a leader that would be released later on the Prestige collection
Settin' the Pace
(1961). In May, he again recorded for Prestige as a leader, though the results would not be heard until the release of
Black Pearls
in 1964.
appeared as part of the
Miles Davis
group at the Newport Jazz Festival in July 1958. The band's set was recorded and released in 1964 on an LP also featuring a performance by
Thelonious Monk
Miles & Monk at Newport
. In 1988, Columbia reissued the material on an album called
Miles & Coltrane
. The performance inspired a review in Down Beat, the leading jazz magazine, that was an early indication of the differing opinions on
that would be expressed throughout the rest of his career and long after his death. The review referred to his "angry tenor," which, it said, hampered the solidarity of the
band. The review led directly to an article published in the magazine on October 16, 1958, in which critic
Ira Gitler
defended the saxophonist and coined the much-repeated phrase "sheets of sound" to describe his playing.
's next Prestige session as a leader occurred later in July 1958 and resulted in tracks later released on the albums
Standard Coltrane
(1963), and
(1965). All of these tracks were later compiled on a reissue called
The Stardust Session
. He did a final session for Prestige in December 1958, recording tracks later released on
The Believer
, and
. This completed his commitment to the label, and he signed to Atlantic Records, doing his first recording for his new employers on January 15, 1959, with a session on which he was co-billed with vibes player
Milt Jackson
, though it did not appear until 1961 with the LP
Bags and Trane
. In March and April 1959,
participated with the
group on the album
Kind of Blue
. Released on August 17, 1959, this landmark album known for its "modal" playing (improvisations based on scales or "modes," rather than chords) became one of the best-selling and most-acclaimed recordings in the history of jazz.
By the end of 1959,
had recorded what would be his Atlantic Records debut,
Giant Steps
, released in early 1960. The album, consisting entirely of
compositions, in a sense marked his real debut as a leading jazz performer, even though the 33-year-old musician had released three previous solo albums and made numerous other recordings. His next Atlantic album,
Coltrane Jazz
, was mostly recorded in November and December 1959 and released in February 1961. In April 1960, he finally left the
band and formally launched his solo career, beginning an engagement at the Jazz Gallery in New York, accompanied by pianist
Steve Kuhn
(soon replaced by
McCoy Tyner
), bassist
Steve Davis
, and drummer
Pete La Roca
(later replaced by
Billy Higgins
and then
Elvin Jones
). During this period, he increasingly played soprano saxophone as well as tenor.
In October 1960,
recorded a series of sessions for Atlantic that would produce material for several albums, including a final track used on
Coltrane Jazz
and tunes used on
My Favorite Things
(March 1961),
Coltrane Plays the Blues
(July 1962), and
Coltrane's Sound
(June 1964). His soprano version of "My Favorite Things," from the
Richard Rodgers
Oscar Hammerstein II
The Sound of Music
, would become a signature song for him. During the winter of 1960-1961, bassist
Reggie Workman
Steve Davis
in his band and saxophone and flute player
Eric Dolphy
, gradually became a member of the group.
In the wake of the commercial success of "My Favorite Things,"
's star rose, and he was signed away from Atlantic as the flagship artist of the newly formed Impulse! Records label, an imprint of ABC-Paramount, though in May he cut a final album for Atlantic,
(February 1962). The following month, he completed his Impulse! debut,
. By this time, his playing was frequently in a style alternately dubbed "avant-garde," "free," or "The New Thing." Like
Ornette Coleman
, he played seemingly formless, extended solos that some listeners found tremendously impressive, and others decried as noise. In November 1961, John Tynan, writing in Down Beat, referred to
's playing as "anti-jazz." That month, however,
recorded one of his most celebrated albums,
Live at the Village Vanguard
, an LP paced by the 16-minute improvisation "Chasin' the Trane."
Between April and June 1962,
cut his next Impulse! studio album, another release called simply Coltrane when it appeared later in the year. Working with producer
Bob Thiele
, he began to do extensive studio sessions, far more than Impulse! could profitably release at the time, especially with Prestige and Atlantic still putting out their own archival albums. But the material would serve the label well after the saxophonist's untimely death.
acknowledged that

Duke Ellington and John Coltrane

John Coltrane with Johnny Hartman
(all 1963), were recorded at his behest to quiet the critics of
's more extreme playing.
(1963), drawn from live and studio recordings made in 1962 and 1963, was a more representative effort, as was 1964's
Live at Birdland
, also a combination of live and studio tracks, despite its title. But
, also released in 1964, seemed to find a middle ground between traditional and free playing, and was welcomed by critics. This trend was continued with 1965's
A Love Supreme
, one of
's best-loved albums, which earned him two Grammy nominations, for Jazz Composition and Performance, and became his biggest-selling record. Also during the year, Impulse! released the standards collection
The John Coltrane Quartet Plays...
and another album of "free" playing,
, as well as
New Thing at Newport
, a live album consisting of one side by
and the other by
Archie Shepp
The year 1966 saw the release of the albums
Kulu Se Mama
's last recordings to appear during his lifetime, though he had finished and approved release for his next album,
, the Friday before his death in July 1967. He died suddenly of liver cancer, entering the hospital on a Sunday and expiring in the early morning hours of the next day. He had left behind a considerable body of unreleased work that came out in subsequent years, including
"Live" at the Village Vanguard Again!
Cosmic Music
Sun Ship
Africa/Brass, Vol. 2
Interstellar Space
(1974), and
First Meditations (For Quartet)
(1977), all on Impulse! Compilations and releases of archival live recordings brought him a series of Grammy nominations, including Best Jazz Performance for the Atlantic album
The Coltrane Legacy
in 1970; Best Jazz Performance, Group, and Best Jazz Performance, Soloist, for "Giant Steps" from the Atlantic album
Alternate Takes
in 1974; and Best Jazz Performance, Group, and Best Jazz Performance, Soloist, for
Afro Blue Impressions
in 1977. He won the 1981 Grammy for Best Jazz Performance, Soloist, for
Bye Bye Blackbird
, an album of recordings made live in Europe in 1962, and he was given the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1992, 25 years after his death.
John Coltrane
is sometimes described as one of jazz's most influential musicians, and certainly there are other artists whose playing is heavily indebted to him. Perhaps more to the point,
is influential by example, inspiring musicians to experiment, take chances, and devote themselves to their craft. The controversy about his work has never died down, but partially as a result, his name lives on and his recordings continue to remain available and to be reissued frequently.

Milk quality improved again in 2009
Milk quality improved again in 2009
2009 was an awful year for producer milk prices, but another good one for milk quality.
According to the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, average bulk tank somatic cell count (BTSCC) for milk in the U.S. improved significantly in 2009 for the second year in a row.
USDA-APHIS looks at milk quality two ways: a "producer" average where BTSCCs from each farm are simply averaged together, and a "milk-weighted" average as though all milk came out of a single blended bulk tank.
In a "producer" situation a 100-cow dairy making 15,000 pounds per cow with 500,000 SCC, and a 1,000-cow dairy making 22,500 pounds with 200,000 SCC would be averaged together to generate a BTSCC of 350,000. In a "milk-weighted" situation, the blended average of the two dairies would be 218,750 SCC.
During 2009, milk-weighted SCC average in the U.S. was 227,000, down 20,000 from 2008 and 33,000 less than in 2007. By comparison, producer SCC average was 277,000 in 2009.
The agency's 2009 milk quality report gently reinforced an important notice from USDA earlier this year that milk used by U.S. dairy processors to make products shipped into the European Union will soon have to meet E.U. quality regulations of 400,000 SCC or less. In its summary the report said, "The recognition of the European Union testing requirements will likely put increased pressure on the U.S. to adopt a 400,000 BTSCC limit in the near future."
During 2009, only about 75 percent of all milk monitored met this requirement, so there's still plenty of work on quality to be done.

A Change of Face was performed on The Muppets on Puppets and The Ed Sullivan Show.
A doctor, played by Rex Robbins, prescribes a change for the Southern Colonel, whose life has gotten into a rut. Robbins changes the Colonel from an old man to a teenage boy, then a hipster, then a poet, then a mobster, then a drunk, and then an alien. Robbins is freaked out by this last and tries to change him back to an old man, but gets his features upside down.

Front foot positioned in the middle just about an inch behind the nails, pop the board and kick your front foot in horizontally forward with some extra force and land back on the board. The fast spinning motion should look like a hurricane thus the name.

When a man consumes too many alcoholic beverages and becomes a hurricane of emotion, destroying anything in his path. Also known to make bad decisions including drunk dialing ex-girlfriends and starting fights with even the most innocent of his friends.
"Francis had 9 too many Jagerbombs last night, and ended up losing his wallet, calling his ex-girlfriend 15 times, and urinating in a public place, where he was arrested. It was later found that he punched a whole in the wall of his room and urinated on his roommates door, leaving a clear path of the hurricane's destruction behind him."

MARTINSBURG - Several residents surrounding a proposed subdivision are unhappy with the potential impact of the project, and they voiced their displeasure during a public hearing held during a recent Berkeley County Planning Commission meeting.
Daniel Llewelyn, representing engineer Site Planning & Design LLC, presented a request for a sketch plan advancement from members of the planning commission to increase the number of houses to be built in the Bella Vista subdivision in Falling Waters from 120 to 170.
"The original development was designed for 120 single family lots on 88.2 acres. The developer has acquired adjacent property to increase the number of proposed single family lots on approximately 120.71 acres," said Steve Thomas, planner for Berkeley County.

Residents surrounding a proposed subdivision are concerned with the traffic impact on Grade Road and Vineyard Road.
Residents spoke during the public comment section of the presentation, expressing their concern over the negative impact the project could have on the land and the residents.
The greatest shared concern among residents at the meeting was the traffic impact on Grade Road and Vineyard Road.
"When you put developments in, you have to have access onto the major highway that does not imperil our public in this county. (Vineyard Road has) become dangerous and it needs to be addressed," said Thomas Rassler.
Rassler and other residents who spoke supported installing a traffic light along Grade Road and urged members of the planning commission to call and write to the Division of Highways requesting the agency installation.
Since the planning commission meeting, Jim Whitacre, Berkeley County Council liasion to the Planning Commission, has requested that the council send an official letter to the Division of Highways asking the organization to perform a traffic study at the Grade Road and U.S. 11 intersection.
Additional concerns include the impact more homes will have on the area's stormwater management, wildlife and road infrastructure due to increased number of cars.
"I think under the new stormwater ordinance it's going to better handle the flow of post-develop water than the previous ordinance, so it's going to be a better finished project as far as discharging water, and hopefully we can actually decrease that," Llewellyn said.
According to Llewellyn, a traffic study has already been submitted to the Division of Highways.
Planning Commission members unanimously approved advancing the project from the sketch plan phase to the preliminary plan stage.

Buddy Guy is part of the second generation of Chicago-based electric-powered blues musicians, the ones who followed in the footsteps of Muddy Waters, Little Walter and Howling Wolf. Some of his contemporaries, like Magic Slim and Guy's longtime friend and occasional partner Junior Wells, have passed on as well.
The man who began his career as a sideman before creating solo albums that featured now-classic songs like "Stone Crazy," "A Man and the Blues," "When My Left Eye Jumps," and a twisted version of "Mary Had A Little Lamb," reached elder statesman status a few years back, but that hasn't stopped him from pressing forward.
Based upon his stage presence Tuesday night, he certainly doesn't act like he's ready to rest on the past. What's amazing is that for a person born back in 1936, Guy's unbridled passion for playing the guitar still burns bright and his physical abilities don't appear to have deteriorated much, if at all.
While other giants of the art (B.B. King and Bobby "Blue" Bland come to mind) walk onto the stage and sit down to perform, Guy paces the stage with the energy of a man decades younger; his hands roam the fret board while his fingers pick the strings with speed and power. Then, just as he's built up a head of steam, Guy shows that he has the ability to stop on a dime and make a point.
He is a masterful musician and an artist who controls the audience with skill and grace but with a little bit of acid tossed in for those who would interrupt his act. This was the case at the beginning of Tuesday night's show, when some folks kept hollering from the audience, disrupting the flow of Guy's performance just after "Damn Right I've Got the Blues" and during the opening moments of "Hoochy Coochy Man" when audience members joined in the song's chorus with the wrong lyrics. The text of his brief speech included some pointed profanity and delivered the message that fun was fun but don't disturb a man when he's working. The crowd loved it.
Guy picked up where he left off, coaxing his guitar into a few whispered moments before launching it into a full-throated roar, guiding his band of talented musicians through their paces. Throughout the show, bursts of air guitar playing broke out as some folks in the audience obviously felt moved by the spirit of the music (and Guy's ferocious playing) to act out their emotions.
Jonny Lang opened up the show, much as he's done for many Buddy Guy concerts. There's a certain respect between the older master and the younger acolyte that causes them to join together on tour more frequently than not.
Lang is a talented guitarist, blues-based in general although with an approach that leans more towards high-powered rock licks.
He has some vocal chops as well, but they seem to edge more towards controlled hysteria with a bit of decent falsetto given a prominent role.
Because he's come to Western New York a fair amount over the years, the personable Lang has developed a pretty solid fan base here, one that eggs him on and rewards him for his efforts. Pockets of people shouted out encouragement as he whipped his way through "Angel of Mercy," "Red Light," a decent cover of Stevie Wonder's "Living for the City" and the gospel-inflected "That Great Day."
As the sounds from his lengthy opening set faded, the audience gave Lang and his quartet a standing ovation. .

The Peril of Governing
Not all criticisms are destructive if taken in a positive light. Yes, the DAP did not have 51 years. Some said it should be given at least 10 years to prove its worth to restore the damage done by BN. Can anyone point out which damage needs another 10 years to fix?
The fact is any political party would welcome a longer period to stay in power. Our concern is not to ensure how long a party should stay in power but how well it is able to govern. Without a serious re-look at Penang's economic model, transportation system, public security, flood mitigation system and others, can we possibly last another 10 years and still boast of being a truly international city?
Any administration if does not get its bearing right during the first 12 months will lose its focus. That is why Obama was grilled barely two days after his unofficial victory for his decision on some appointments. If we want this government to last and to become an enduring model of good governance, it is our duty to ensure it stays on track.
Many of you claim that this government lacks experience and it is too early to judge its performance. My earlier article was not meant to measure its performance but to act as a sounding board to help the government reconsider some of its decisions. The fact that his team lacks experience makes it even more pertinent for us to keep them on their toes.
I criticize because I want the DAP to do well. Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has set the ground work for his CAT government. By promoting competency, accountability and transparency, it is time for him to look at other socio-economic issues. I know and appreciate his sincerity. He told me he wanted to ensure Penang succeed at the very beginning of his administration.
It is this commitment of his that I told him I will act as both his critic and friend to ensure he delivers what he has promised.
Those of you who tried to link me to my ex-Sedar days and resort to personal attacks have missed the point. You have missed by a great length. A society which cannot tolerate and debate issues are bound to be bankrupt of ideas.
What is so different between you and several UMNO lackeys who occasionally post disgusting personal and racist comments on my blog?
If Guan Eng tells me personally that he does not appreciate my comments, I will stop discussing his government. The loss is not mine.
The fact he and his supporters like you will have to live with is the DAP does not have 10 years.
I want to see him be given more time. Not by going out of the way to justify his inadequacies but by giving him a hard time to perform his optimal best. Moreover, giving him my full support and help when needed like helping to promote Penang's heritage and cultural diversity.
If you abhor BN rule, then say and do something constructive.

Dear Khoo,
We agree and support you on your constructive criticism of the Penang gomen.
Feedback enables the captain of the boat to change course to prevent any major accident from happening.
The captain should welcome such feedback and not just have a one-sided perspective. If they ignore feedback from the ground, they are no different from UMNO /BN. In time, they too will be kicked out if they don't deliver what they preach.
Hi Kay Peng,
Well said and I agreed with you. Very often our best friends are also our worst enemies for they lead you astray by providing you the answers and comments you want to hear.
Conversely, an enemy or a well-intentioned will keep you on your toes and their actions will keep you focused and at your best. What we don't need are sycophants, trumpeteers and people who have honey on their lips and devil in their hearts.
Keep on providing LGE with feedback, good or otherwise. All vessels big or small need a compass; more so in the case of DAP Penang which is sailing in ocean waters for the first time.
Best wishes to you and DAP Penang.

Mr KKP, I fully support your views and frankness in providing diverse views on progressive governance.
The often arrogant and fascist stance of the long standing Federal tyrants, blindly aped and pacified by the lackeys have deeply scarred our thoughts and belittled our mother nature intelligence. We cannot afford the return of these shameless lackeys and it is right that the current Penang administration are constantly reminded and awaken in fulfilling the expectations of the people.
The next General Election may be held in April 2009, when Najib wish to justify his mandate, and image building should have already started by now.
Remember, the public demand bold and fast action in evaluating Competency.
I would like to highlight that the damage done on the cleanliness of Penang may take more than 10 years to fix!!
Let's bring back the beauty and glory of The Pearl of Orient.
I strongly agree with Kay Peng that if any government or management of an organization is unable to take criticism will not be able to do well as there is no one to play the role of devil advocate. We (Penangites) and also th present state government should infact appreciate there is someone out there who is willing to contribute his/her ideas/comments for the betterment of the state.
- KongKor said...
I completely agree with you Mr. Khoo. As responsible citizen, we should continue to provide constructive criticisms provided that the othe party is willing to listen and work harder for the people. It does not matter whether it is PR or BN government.
Engaging and constant dialogue with the people is the key factor for any government of the day to succeed, make no mistake.
As a Penangite, I am quite pleased with YB Lim Guan Eng and team so far despite some minor setback, an eye opener for the people and a welcome change.
LGE and his men must succeed in transforming Penang as an example to all Malaysians as to what caring and responsive leadership can achieve. That is the best answer to BN racial politics. An honest mistake does not break a man, it only spurs him to try harder. I do not think your comments were ill intentioned, and I do not think LGE will take offense even if some supporters may be miffed. I want to thank you for your straight talk, it is a breath of fresh air.
- Teh said...
Good evening KKP,
I am Penang born. Even though I spend more years in PJ than in Penang, there is still that fond attachment to this island where I was born, educated and got my first job.
Thus, I really want to see Penang returned to its previous state of glory where Penangites are known for their resourcefulness, intellect, industriousness and friendliness. In the past, it is one of the most successful Malaysian state.
However over the years, all these eroded away thanks to BN.
Now that it is under the leadership of LGE, I must say I have high expectations for him and his team to turn thing around for the better. The old BN ways of wastefulness must not be repeated.
So I expect that every plan that LGE and team have for Penang must be well-thought with regards to the benefits it could bring for the people and the state and the mode of implementation must be immaculate and impecable. There should only be slim margin for errors.
All in all I must say that LGE and team had faired quite well but there is always room for improvement.
KPP, I agree with you on your previous posting that immediate attention is needed with regards to cleanliness, public safety and economy. The first 2 factors would enhance tourism now that Penang is heritage status and investors. Once in place, tourism and investment revenue will naturally follow.
It is people like you with straight talk that a good government needs but apple polishers. Give credit where credit is due and constructive critism for improvement. I am sure LGE is wise enough not to take offence or ignore sincere feedbacks.
The best is yet to come. So what if 2009 will be a general election? I think Mongolian story continues and no doubt, the police folks who are in the docks didn't do it without any orders for nothing...
- Bow said...
It is the duty of every citizen to criticize elected government's flaw policy, and he does has that rights in Malaysia. Whether officials willing to listen and change is another matter.
I agree that it is time the Pakatan government gets its act together and focus on how it intends to take the state forward in the wake of the "unfriendly" attitude of the federal government and the previous state administration.
Whilst it is not entirely wrong to bring up issues of wrong doings of their predecessors, it is more important to chart the way forward.
Granted the present administration has a handicap due to its lack of experience and leaders of high capability and calibre running the state government.
However, when it comes to the crunch, particularly with the bleak economic outlook ahead, the people of Penang will soon lose patience and confidence if the state government cannot do what is expected of it to bring us forward.
So, in a nutshell, the Pakatan government should now focus on how to take us forward rather spend too much time looking back (unless, of course, this involves gross misdeeds) and pointing fingers.
- Bow said...
To be an effective and responsible government, LGE shouldn't see constructive criticism negatively, instead he should look into the validity of it and ready to change state policy for the betterment of average Penagites's livelihood.
- Ti Lian Ker said...
Well done....straight talking...we need that...no one has a monopoly of right or wrong...we just have to expose the wrongs and help make more rights

The city of Hayward, California. It is known as the "heart" of the bay. The city was founded by a man named William Hayward, who came to California to seek his fortune in the California Gold Rush (Began in 1848, I believe). He bought some forty acres from some Rancher, and in a few years sprouted into a town. Was at one point misspelled into "Haywood". Haystack is a slang term when reffering to this city.
Person A: I live in tha Haystack

The term, "Haystack" is used as a name for a food often served at vegetarian and vegan lunches and dinners. It usually consists of Frito's (or whatever chips desired, often smashed), beans, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, sour cream, salsa, and cheese (often times a vegan supplement is used). This dish is most commonly served at Seventh-day Adventist schools and potlucks. But it's really just a taco salad.
"I am craving a haystack!"
"What's a haystack?"
"The Adventist version of a taco salad."
