Mike Barnett to Release Solo Album One Song Romance
Fiddler/vocalist from The Deadly Gentlemen steps out with debut solo project featuring Aoife O'Donovan, Sarah Jarosz, Noam Pikelny, Tim O'Brien and more.
From a young age, Mike Barnett has made his mark on the bluegrass world as an extremely talented fiddler. He has toured as a member of Jesse McReynolds and the Virginia Boys, the David Grisman Sextet and the progressive bluegrass quintet, The Deadly Gentleman, which he co-founded. With the release of his debut solo project, ONE SONG ROMANCE, Barnett is poised to establish himself as a solo artist with a broad and engaging musical vision that reaches from bluegrass into acoustic jazz and beyond.
Barnett penned all of the music on the twelve-track album which showcases his vocal abilities as well as his virtuosic fiddle technique. The tracks moves from slick bluegrass fiddling ("More Strangs") through Celtic ("Change Her Mind"), swing ("Dig, Dig, Dig") and neo-grass on the album's opener "It'll Be All Right." Special guests and collaborators include Aoife O'Donovan, Tim O'Brien, Noam Pikelny, David Grier, Dominick Leslie, Chris Eldridge and more.
Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Michael Barnett began studying the fiddle at age 10 and by age 15 was touring with the legendary "Mr. Mandolin" Jesse McReynolds and the Virginia Boys, playing regular weekend performances on the Grand Ole Opry. That same year, at age 15, he became the youngest instructor ever to teach at the fiddle school at Vanderbilt University. Barnett later relocated to the Northeast where he has built his profile touring and recording with Jonathan Edwards, Tony Trishcka and Gordon Stone. In 2010 Barnett and banjoist Greg Liszt co-founded The Deadly Gentlemen, a progressive bluegrass outfit that allowed Mike the space to push the limits of traditional fiddle playing and incorporate new influences into his constantly evolving style. After four years with the group, Barnett will now focus on exploring his solo career path.
Folk's Best Come Together for Two CD Tribute to Jean Ritchie
Featured artists include Pete Seeger, Janis Ian, John McCutcheon, Judy Collins, Kathy Mattea, Suzy Boggus, Robin and Linda Williams, Dale Ann Bradley, Archie Fisher, Tim O'Brien and many more
Compass Records is pleased to announce the release of DEAR JEAN: ARTISTS CELEBRATE THE MUSIC OF JEAN RITCHIE. The album is scheduled for release on September 2, 2014. The 37 track, 2 CD set features performances from an impressive array of Ritchie's fans and admirers, all of whom have come together to honor the living legacy of the Kentucky-born singer/songwriter many refer to as "The Mother of Folk." Contributors were intentionally selected to represent the diversity of genres and generations Ritchie has influenced throughout her life, with classic artists like Pete Seeger, Judy Collins, Janis Ian, Kathy Mattea, Tim O'Brien, Robin and Linda Williams, Oscar Brand, and Dale Ann Bradley sharing the spotlight with up and coming talents like the Starry Mountain Singers, Rachael Davis, and Matt Brown. Standout tracks include "The L & N Don't Stop Here Anymore" (Robin and Linda Williams), "I've Got a Mother" (The Starry Mountain Singers), "Black Waters" (John McCutcheon, Kathy Mattea, Suzy Boggus, Tim O'Brien), "Morning Come, Maria's Gone" (Janis Ian) and "One I Love" (Judy Collins). There is also a spoken word version of "I Celebrate Life" from Pete Seeger, one of his last recordings.
Jean Ritchie was born in 1922 in Viper, Kentucky, the youngest of 14 children. Ritchie grew up immersed in the traditional songs of the region and moved to New York in the 1940s where, as a social worker, she taught music to children. She also befriended Pete Seeger, Oscar Brand, Woody Guthrie and Alan Lomax during this time and, in the 1950s, recorded several albums for Electra. In the early '50s she received a Fulbright scholarship and traveled to the UK and Ireland to collect traditional songs. Ritchie's songs have been recorded by a variety of artists including Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Johnny Cash and Judy Collins. Over the course of her career, her song collecting and song writing has helped to preserve the musical legacy of her Kentucky home, as well as expand awareness of its challenges through her continued support of the grassroots environmental organization Appalachian Voices and politically pointed songs such as "The L & N" and "Black Waters". Not only is Jean Ritchie an amazing musician, cultural preserver, and activist, she is and has always been a welcoming, supporting mentor for all those who have crossed her path, and DEAR JEAN gives a well-deserved thank you for years of inspiration.
On Down the Line Out Now!
Michael Cleveland and Flamekeeper's New Album, Produced by Jeff White
"ON DOWN THE LINE, a terrific record by any standard, illustrates the band's elevated cohesion and vibrant interplay even as it highlights the selflessness Cleveland brings to his bandleader's calling." – David McGee, Deep Roots Magazine
Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper's brand new album has just been released today. Led by nine-time International Bluegrass Music Association's Fiddle Player of the Year, Michael Cleveland, the group's virtuoisic style and traditional bluegrass sound has never been better represented, and is already receiving high praise.
The album's fourteen tracks showcase Flamekeeper's rich instrumental blend and tight three-part vocal harmonies, with tunes that span from straight-ahead bluegrass ("Fiddlin' Joe," "Orange Blossom Special") to melodic, heart-felt songs such as "Just Call Me Crazy" and the imaginative reworking of the traditional "Jack O'Diamonds" as a solo fiddle tour de force. There is also a suprise twist with a hard-driving bluegrass take on the Julian Lennon song "Too Late For Goodbyes," which is propelled by instrumental trades between banjo player Glenn Gibson and Cleveland. Grounding the driving forces of Gibson, Cleveland, and Nathan Livers on the mandolin, are bassist Tyler Griffith and guitarist Josh Richards, who contributed several originals to the project, including the neo-grass original, "Johnny Thompson."
New Album Slated for September Release
Mike Farris is set to release his newest studio album, SHINE FOR ALL THE PEOPLE, on September 16, 2014. This long-awaited follow up to 2007's critically acclaimed SALVATION IN LIGHTS includes both original material and Farris' trademark interpretations of traditional gospel steeped in the influence of rock, vintage Memphis soul and the swagger of New Orleans.
Farris' musical vision has coalesced into a sound that, at once, harkens back to early soul records yet emerges completely fresh with this new studio record. The album's 10 tracks are saturated with horns, B3, and gospel backing vocals, but Farris is the star here, as his voice is one of the greatest of our time while staking his claim as sole proprietor of a musical style uniquely his own.
SHINE FOR ALL THE PEOPLE opens with "River Jordan," an almost cubano, horn-punctuated groove, driven by Farris' soaring vocals that form a surprising link between Havana and Hattiesburg. Two Farris originals, "Power of Love" and "Real Fine Day," convey the album's uplifting message of survival and gratitude. The New Orleans-infused "Sparrow" takes a side trip to Preservation Hall, and the achingly poignant "Mercy Now," from the pen of singer/songwriter Mary Gauthier—as delivered by Farris—stands tall as a plea of forgiveness for all mankind. This album bears witness to the determination of putting one foot in front of the other and to the power of music to get you there. "I've discovered that falling is a divine thing," Mike adds. "It's part and parcel of being human. The important thing is to keep the faith, get up and go on."
"He looks a little like Prince and sounds somewhere in the neighborhood of Little Richard, James Brown and Aretha Franklin. Farris' supercharged voice slices through the band like a knife." —Suzanne Cadgene, Elmore Magazine
Mike Farris began his solo career in the in the early 2000's intertwining rock, blues and gospel in a way that allowed him to rediscover and reinterpret traditional black spiritual music by adding his own mix of vintage southern soul. In 2008, Farris won the prestigious Americana Music Award for Best New & Emerging Artist and later a Dove Award in 2010 for Best Traditional Gospel Album of the year with SHOUT! Live. He has appeared at multiple festivals including Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, Telluride, Strawberry Festival, ACL Festival & Bonnaroo electrifying audiences with the impact of his live performances with his 9 piece band, The Roseland Rhythm Revue. In 2010, Mike was joined by some of Nashville's finest musicians including Ketch Secor and Gill Landry from Old Crow Medicine Show, Sam Bush, Kenny Vaughan, Byron House and others to record an EP called THE NIGHT THE CUMBERLAND CAME ALIVE to benefit victims of the Nashville flood. He has contributed vocals to Patty Griffin's Grammy Award Winning DOWNTOWN CHURCH project, as well as Rodney Crowell's latest album, TARPAPER SKY. Additionally, Farris was invited to be a featured performer at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 16th Annual American Masters concert in 2011 honoring Aretha Franklin along with such acts as Lauryn Hill, Chaka Khan, Cissy Houston, Ronald Isley, Dennis Edwards and Melinda Doolittle.
John Cowan Announces New Album and Supporting Tour Dates
Produced by fellow Doobie Brother, John McFee, guest roster includes Leon Russell, Alison Krauss, Rodney Crowell, Sam Bush, among others
John Cowan is set to release his brand new studio effort, SIXTY, on August 24th. The new album, his first since 2010's THE MASSENBERG SESSIONS, touches on all facets of his career and is, without a doubt, the legendary singer's most ambitious solo effort to date. Produced by fellow Doobie Brother, John McFee, the album's 12 tracks showcase Cowan's iconic vocals alongside an impressive array of nearly 30 guests including Leon Russell, Alison Krauss, Rodney Crowell, Bernie Leadon, Sam Bush, Chris Hillman, Huey Lewis, Bonnie Bramlett, Ray Benson and many more.
Tracks range from the New Orleans-styled, heartfelt "Miss the Mississippi," to "Why Are You Crying," a banjo driven foot stomper, to the rocking "Run For Your Life," which, as performed by Cowan, could easily become an Americana standard. The album's opener "The Things I Haven't Done" alludes to Cowan's Newgrass roots while the standout piano/vocal duet with the legendary Leon Russell, "Feel Like Going Home," (recorded live and in one take) is an absolute stunner.
Taken as a whole, the album illustrates the breadth of Cowan's vocal talents while showcasing his remarkable vocal dexterity across a variety of genres, proving that 45 years into his career, John is still one of the most iconic singers in roots music. "I love my 'job'," Cowan says. "I love playing music for people every night. I'm very grateful for every opportunity I have to play my music with my own band for the fans that have been so loyal to me over the years. I don't ever want to stop sharing my music with them."
John Cowan, John McFee and friends will launch a tour in support of the new release this September, and is currently on tour with the Doobie Brothers.

Improving rentals
An important issue that could significantly improve the look of New Albany and its neighborhoods is about to come before the Board of Aldermen.
We're referring to the proposal to establish minimum standards for rental housing. The proposal will be the subject of a public hearing at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall.
The rental housing ordinance would give the city building inspector the authority to prevent rental units from being occupied if the minimum standards were not met.
The standards are minimal: water, a toilet, sink, bathtub or shower, heat and ventilation, electrical, protection from weather and the like. In other words, there the kind of things you and I would expect as a minimum in a place where we were going to live.
The proposal has been brought before the board by Alderman Scott Dunham, who, as a builder and a person who rehabilitates homes, knows what rental properties ought to be like. We commend him for raising the issue.
What is troubling is that a number of people have told us that some landlords in the community are going to oppose it. Frankly, we don't understand how any community-minded person could be against it.
A drive through our neighborhoods shows immediately how important it is to adopt minimum standards for rentals. The failure to do so years ago has contributed to some areas becoming blighted.
We think the community should watch carefully to see who opposes this proposal and why. Would those who oppose it be willing to move their families into these rentals?
The City of New Albany faces a real decision about what kind of place we want to be and what kind of image we want to present. We have said before the city needs a very forceful clean-up, fix-up campaign.
Requiring rentals to be truly habitable is a start.

Rock And Roll In General And Bruce Springsteen In ParticularPosted Thursday, November 15, 2012, at 10:02 PM
I just finished the book "Bruce Springsteen And The Promise of Rock 'N' Roll" by Marc Dolan. It was on display at the Spencer Library and I thought I would read it since I have been a fan of "The Boss" since I first saw him in concert at Hancher Auditorium in Iowa City on June 13, 1978.
As the youngest of six, I grew up listening to a variety of music, from Sinatra and Bennett to Dave Mason and Jethro Tull. I was in 8th grade when I saw my first live concert with my family in Des Moines. We had third row seats to see Peter, Paul, and Mary. Two years later I got to see Elvis perform at the Hilton Coliseum in Ames.
In 10th grade I remember driving to Sioux City's Auditorium with some friends to see Sha Na Na perform. A couple years ago I took our 12 year old son to the same venue (now called the Tyson Center) for a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert (Yes, they ended with "Free Bird"). It was a great bonding experience and he liked them better than the Jackson Browne concert a year or two later at Sioux City's Orpheum Theatre.
Springsteen was the best. In 1978 he played songs from his "Born To Run" and "Darkness On The Edge Of Town" albums together with Clarence Clemons and the rest of the E Street Band. I saw him again on October 30, 1992, at Hilton Coliseum (twenty years after seeing Elvis there). He performed songs from his albums "Lucky Town" and "Human Touch". Flash forward another 20 years and he is now on tour performing hits from his album "Wrecking Ball" (an album I bought from Itunes as a digital download which I access on the "ICloud"). Springsteen remains the best. He has spanned forty years (or from vinyl to cassette to compact disk to the "cloud"). If you get a chance to catch Springsteen in concert, do not pass it up. He does not disappoint.

Roberto, I have to confess that I had center seats, first level and was way in the back, and that after Bruce and the band were finished with their SECOND encore, my friend and I figured they were done and we left.
We got as far as the Iowa River when we heard them start playing again, so we went back and NOBODY was in his seat--everyone was cramming as close to the stage as he could get and Bruce was singing old rock and roll tunes. I bet it went on for four hours.

Wow you really took me back in time JP. I was at that same concert at Hancher in 1978. Not only was Bruce at the top of his game, but we actually ran into him and the rest of the band minus Clarence after that concert at Perkins in Iowa city. We were talking out side when the automatic sprinklers came on spraying Bruce. I can still remember it as if it was yesterday.

Author Affiliations:Departments of Surgery (Drs Roland and Teal) and Pathology (Dr Schwartz), George Washington University, Washington, DC.
A 49-year-old woman from India presented with a 1-month history of a fungating, ulcerated, bleeding mass involving her entire left nipple (Figure). She had no prior breast pathological findings, surgery, radiation exposure, or trauma. There was no abnormality of the right breast. There was no palpable supraclavicular, infraclavicular, or axillary lymphadenopathy. A bilateral mammogram was obtained, which revealed increased density at the 5-o'clock position of the left breast with skin thickening and prominence of the nipple-areola complex.

Four new employees have joined Country Roads Physical Therapy in Buckhannon and West Fairmont clinics. With the addition of the new employees, Country Roads now has two physical therapists, a physical therapist assistant and a rehabilitation technician to add to the well-established organization.
Lisa McCune joined the Country Roads Buckhannon office in June as a physical therapist. Lisa has a bachelor's degree in exercise physiology and doctorate in physical therapy from West Virginia University.
"I am very happy to be at Country Roads Physical Therapy because I know that I am working alongside a highly trained and motivated team who are all dedicated to the care and recovery of their patients," McCune said.
In addition to McCune, the Buckhannon location also welcomed physical therapist assistant Kayla Adams in late July. Adams received her degree from Pierpont Community and Technical College's Physical Therapy Assistant Program.
"I love the philosophy they bring to treatment, including the individualized treatment plans and commitment to compassionate care," Adams said.
The West Fairmont clinic also opened its doors to two new employees. Mary Mayer, a certified athletic trainer, started in May as a rehabilitation technician and Melissa Henry started in June as a physical therapist.
As a former softball player for her alma mater Alderson-Broaddus College, Mayer's passion for sports allows her to relate well to patients with sports related injuries. In her free time, she coaches high school softball.
Melissa Henry has a bachelor's degree in exercise science from Fairmont State University and a doctorate in physical therapy from West Virginia University.
"It's very exciting to be able to provide opportunities for new therapists in our hometown where Country Roads got its start," said Derek Falkenstein, co-owner and West Fairmont clinic director. "As a former player on the Women's Basketball Team at FSU, Henry will also be able to show genuine compassion and empathy to our patients with sports injuries. We're very fortunate to have two new members of our team that are sports enthusiasts and committed to helping our patients get back to their game immediately."
All of the certified licensed physical therapists at Country Roads Physical Therapy are committed to providing the highest quality care with a hometown friendly service. Country Roads Physical Therapy has four locations: East Fairmont, West Fairmont, Buckhannon and Wheeling.
To schedule appointments at the Buckhannon office call 304-472-8510 and at the West Fairmont office call 304-363-0050. Visit CountryRoadsPT.com for more information.

Just yesterday at the park Carter stopped playing and came up to me to say Mommy, I love you. It was in front of my friend, too, and almost made me teary.
Gray's independence at two years old can be a bit unnerving yet also glorious. But when he comes to grab my hand and ask for my help doing something that's just too big for his own confidence, it does feel good to be needed and know that I make him feel safe.
This baby girl inside me kicks and pushes around more than my other pregnancies combined. And I love it. I wonder what she's thinking in there. And I hope someday she knows how much I've been blessed to carry her, and how much it has changed me.
I was tagged for this meme about my children by Haley and took it upon myself to write just one thing about each of my children. You can play along as you wish.

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
The human proteome counts among its ranks hundreds of thousands of unique members, each hinting at a patient's health status in some way. Scientists have validated many of these proteins as biomarkers, pointing to their diagnostic and prognostic potential.
Elevated troponin, for example, has historically been used as a marker for cardiac arrest in the emergency room. That asymptomatic individuals with elevated troponin levels have increased risk of a cardiac event speaks to the power of the protein as a disease predictor.
Singulex seeks to harness the predictive power of proteins like troponin with its fully automated digital immunoassay system capable of detecting single molecules to the femtogram level. Dubbed Erenna®, the product has been used in large pharmaceutical R&D labs, at academic institutions, and by CROs alike. Singulex customers are using the platform to evaluate therapeutic safety and efficacy, as well as pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, among other things.
Erenna includes a confocal optical platform and background-reduction methodology that enables the quantification of low-abundance biomarkers and extends the dynamic range to over 4 logs, offering improved sensitivity and specificity over existing ELISAs or electrochemiluminescent-based immunoassays, the firm says.
"That's really a key differentiator which enables us to precisely and confidently monitor very low volume biomarkers over time, using low sample volumes, from discovery to clinical applications," Singulex CEO Guido Baechler tells GEN.
Launch of this system—and the resulting life science business—helped Singulex take off, priming its natural foray into the clinical realm. "Our life science business was our initial revenue-generating business that enabled us to discover disease applications of unique biomarkers that we are offering today in our clinical lab," he says.
In 2010, the firm began processing customer blood samples through its advanced cardiovascular diagnostic monitoring service. Singulex analyzed more than 170,000 blood samples in its CAP-certified and CLIA-licensed California lab in 2012. To date the company has processed more than 3 million clinical tests, Baechler says, noting that additional diagnostic services are coming down the pike.
Because the technology can be used to detect low-abundance biomarkers in healthy populations, it improves the prognostic and diagnostic power of established biomarkers associated with increased risk for developing cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, notes Baechler. "Our technology can improve patient care while reducing healthcare costs," he suggests.
Baechler points to case studies in which ostensibly healthy individuals, who presented with elevated cardiac troponin and inflammation biomarker levels, were subsequently referred to specialists who, with further monitoring, identified significant risk of a cardiac event.
"We see this quite frequently and that's really a driver of what we're doing today," Baechler says.
"Combining cardiac troponin with cytokines and other inflammatory markers and pairing it with advanced lipid tests, we are able to provide a full panel to physicians to identify patients at risk in a chronic setting for a primary or secondary cardiac event so they can individualize treatment strategies and monitor the effectiveness of therapies over time."
The company is now working to develop a next-generation, fully automated benchtop immunoassay analyzer that can run up to 15 different tests on a single sample with a turnaround time similar to that of standard platforms, around 20 to 30 minutes.
"This system will allow us to distribute our immunoassay technology globally to hospitals and reference labs," Baechler says.
At the same time, he adds, the company's digital immunoassay technology is "continuing to power discovery and development of innovative diagnostics and treatments for chronic diseases beyond cardiovascular disorders," such as Alzheimer's, arthritis, and diabetes.
"The ability to measure biomarker concentrations at healthy levels—not possible previously with other technologies—and to monitor small changes in concentrations over time has expanded the clinical utility of proven and emerging biomarkers, thus providing researchers with new insights into disease biology, drug safety, and efficacy," Baechler says.

When Nate Berkus married his partner of two years, Jeremiah Brent, over the weekend, both knew it would be an emotional day, but they didn't quite prepare for everything.
Take, for instance, when Sheri Salata, the president of OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network & Harpo Studios, who officiated the wedding, "accidentally knocked our ceremonial glass off onto the floor and it broke," recalls Berkus, 42, the American Dream Builders host. "It was hilarious and something we'll be laughing about 20 years from now!"
The couple, who had planned on the element of the glass breaking at the end of the ceremony, as a nod to Berkus's Jewish heritage, thought it was hands down the funniest moment of the night.
But it wasn't the only thing. Brent, 29, joked about his "inability to stop crying," during the ceremony, which later had him laughing.
Adds the evening's officiant herself, "It was the stunning honor of my life to be asked and a love bomb of an experience. I will never forget, nor will anyone who got to walk in to that blessing. Awe—some," she tells PEOPLE exclusively.
What Made Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent Laugh at Their Wedding?

My latest TV obsession has brought me to the topic of today's column: psychics.
In "The Mentalist," the main character is a self-professed former charlatan, or fake psychic, who turned over a new leaf to pursue murderers with his nontraditional methods. In other words, he cons bad guys.
The show does a good job of leaving enough ambiguity to neither confirm nor deny the legitimacy of psychic ability, and the phenomenon is something I've always been intrigued by.
If you look in the white pages (or online), you'll find plenty of listings for psychics. If you frequent certain eclectic gift shops, you'll find a few more. Virtually everyone knows at least one person who has seen something, heard something, felt something or even dreamt something unexplainable.
Maybe you've taken pictures - or know someone who has - that contain strange glowing balls or vapory outlines and other such things. Maybe you "knew" something before you knew it to be fact, or maybe you know someone who did.
I was listening to the radio on the way home from work early Thursday, and 570AM Coast to Coast had an interesting topic: Author Frank DeMarco claimed to have frequent discussions with Ernest Hemingway, who died in 1961. Yes, he talks to his ghost.
DeMarco, who was also promoting his book, "Afterlife Conversations with Hemingway," said most people have the ability to talk to those who have passed beyond. I don't know if that's true or not, but I think it's a fascinating possibility.
Don't get me wrong - I'm probably more apt to believe in psychic ability than to disbelieve it. Maybe I'm looking for a reason to believe it, or maybe I just want to believe it. Everyone has their reasons.
One of my reasons stems from the fact that there are so many things that happen that can't be rationally explained. I've heard accounts from trustworthy people that send chills down my spine. I have talked to people who claim to have perceived angels, demons, spirits and everything in-between. Some I believe, some I don't.
I've never talked to a ghost. I've never been able to read someone's mind or predict that something will happen before it does.
I have picked up the phone to call my mom right at the moment my phone rings with a call from her. That happens quite frequently.
I once walked into a dark hallway at my parents' house and flinched because I thought I was going to walk into my mom or dad, but the figure vanished when I flipped on the hall light (and I found my parents were asleep in their bedroom).
I've been napping, about to fall asleep, when I felt a falling sensation and jerked awake. This happens to most people, and there are several theories as to why. Some say it has to do with brain activity during REM or a muscle jerk, but others say it is a precursor to an out-of-body experience.
I've taken pictures that contain floating orbs. Some say they are just dust particles, reflections, moisture in the air. Others say they are indicitive of spiritual activity.
Do psychics really exist? Do we all have untapped potential for things like extrasensory perception (ESP)? Are there really ghosts floating around, unbeknownst to most of us as we go about our daily routines? I don't know.
I know there are many people who require proof to believe in things of a supernatural or even spiritual nature. But I choose to believe in the possibility, until it's proven otherwise.
Do you believe in psychics? Tell me at email@example.com or comment on this story at tribtoday.com.

5 Covers That Improved the Lyrics of Famous Songs
The other week, I wrote a column about the worst changed lyrics in music history, and I think we all learned something -- specifically, what I think are the top five worst changed lyrics in rock history. But y'know what? I thought I'd turn that frown upside down. Then I turned it upside again and stood on my head. And then it was opposite day. By that time I was pretty confused, so I got drunk, and when I woke up I decided to do an article about the five best changed lyrics in music history. Then I tried really, really, really hard to find five examples.
Digital Vision./Photodisc/Getty
Here is a picture of a guy trying really hard. Why? Because 8 out of 10 eyes glaze over if there are two consecutive paragraphs of text unbroken by a photo. YOU'RE WELCOME.
#5. Johnny Cash Finds Jesus and a Better Lyric for His Cover of NIN's "Hurt"
Our first entry is an interesting one, because I came very close to putting it on the list of the worst changed lyrics. In the original "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails, Trent Reznor sings, "I wear this crown of shit." It's par for the course with Trent. After all, "Hurt" is a cutter's anthem for the depressed with no self-esteem. That's what the '90s were like. Every singer was dying to tell you how much they sucked: Thom Yorke of Radiohead was a "creep," Kurt Cobain sang, "I hate myself and I want to die," and Trent was wearing his "crown of shit."
Jason Merritt/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
Apparently, an invisible crown of shit.
When Johnny Cash did his phenomenal cover just before his death, however ...
"Crown of Shit" BECAME "Crown of Thorns"
I used to hate that. "OK, Johnny," I said to myself. "We get it. You love Jesus." It annoyed me because Jesus loving had nothing to do with this self-hating masterpiece. But then I listened to the lyric in context. It went from being "I wear this crown of shit upon my liar's chair" to "I wear this crown of thorns upon my liar's chair." "Liar's chair" becomes more important, because now we know he's lying about the crown of thorns. He's lying about being a martyr, about being holy. He's not just a piece of shit; he's a fraud. The lyric change actually ups the ante on his personal sins.
#4. Relient K Injects Humor into Pure Cheese for Its Cover of "Manic Monday"
You might know Relient K as some Christian power-pop punk band. Or you might not know them at all. I sure as hell didn't, and I'm pretty sure that's OK. But at one point, this band decided to do a cover of the Bangles hit "Manic Monday." There are three things to know about "Manic Monday": 1) it's catchy; 2) Prince wrote it; and 3) it's a piece of fluffy, forgettable shit.
To understand how Relient K made this list, you really can't underestimate the importance of that third prong. See, normally a gratuitous lyric change just for laughs would be offensive. Show some respect! But when you're covering a piece of pure pop fluff, you don't really have to sweat it. It's not like drawing boobs on the Mona Lisa.
I said it's NOT like this.
Accordingly, when Relient K covered it ...
"He Tells Me in His Bedroom Voice, 'C'mon, Honey, Let's Go Make Some Noise'" BECAME "He Tells Me in His Quiet Riot Voice, 'C'mon, Feel the Noise.'"
Yes, Relient K is referencing another '80s hit. Is that the funniest thing ever? No. Is it amusing? Yes, a bit. Does it improve the song? I think it does. Are you tired of this question/answer sentence construction? I'm sure. Should I stop? Of course! Will I? Not until every last one of you hates me. You already do? OK.
#3. Peggy Lee Turns a Few Words and a Melody into a Full Song With Her Cover of "Fever"
You might not know Peggy Lee, but odds are good you've heard her song "Fever." It's just the pinnacle of slow jazz cool. It goes a little something like this:
Actually, it goes a lot like that. That was it. What you just watched just then. That's Peggy Lee's "Fever." Now you know. Anyway, I never knew this, but apparently it's a cover. The original "Fever" was written by Little Willie John and went something like this. Again, exactly like that. Notice something?
Yeah, Peggy Lee Wrote About Half a Song of New, Additional Lyrics
How many? Like most of them. None of the following lyrics were in the song:
Everybody's got the fever
That is somethin' you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said, "Julie baby you're my flame"
Thou givest fever, when we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever I'm on fire
Fever yeah I burn forsooth
Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said, "Daddy oh don't you dare"
He gives me fever with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his missus
And daddy won't you treat him right?
Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade
They give you fever when we kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever, till you sizzle
Oh what a lovely way to burn
And not only did Peggy write 'em, she didn't take credit for it. What a cool, jazzy lady.

4 Things I Regret Doing While Drunk in Your Emergency Room
Dear Doctor,
I'm sorry I didn't actually catch your name. I couldn't read your badge because -- as you may remember -- I was near death, and my vision was compromised by smatterings of hot wet pain, or as you kept calling them in your classically understated way, tears. Now a full week on from The Event, I just want to check in with you and make sure you're doing OK. I've been worried about you, and I hope you know there's no shame in being a little shaken by such a traumatic experience. I'm just glad we both kept our heads under all that pressure. If you ever need someone to talk to about it, about anything, I'm here. I offer because you shouldn't have to suffer alone and because it's something I've heard other heroes say.
This is just a metaphor, I'd prefer it if we didn't hold hands.
Also, hey, as long as I have your attention, I feel like I need to clear the air about a few things that happened the night you stitched up my face. It's silly, but I recall seeing a few suppressed smiles and subtle eye rolls from you during The Event, and I want to make sure you didn't mistake my proud pallor and moans of courage for something a little closer to cowardice. If for some reason you did write me off as "weak" despite my frequent and unmistakable declarations to the contrary, I'd like to take a minute to explain away each of the moments that may have seemed, from your perspective, particularly embarrassing for me. I can't blame you for getting confused, it was a mad three hours for all of us.
That Part Where I Took Off My Clothes and Wept in the Lobby
By now you've no doubt read the full account of my injury as dictated to the ER nurse from the floor of the main entrance (I lacked the strength to pull myself clear of the automatic doors). If for some reason you haven't, the tragedy occurs at the end of Chapter 8, assuming she adhered to my rigid layout requests.
I'm confident everyone in the hospital has read it by now.
The abbreviated version is that some friends and I were swimming late at night in a Las Vegas hotel. I dove, spectacularly, from the edge of the water and flew easily 45 feet in midair, and at least 2. When I finally let gravity win, my angle of approach was perfect, my splash polite, but I had underestimated the distance of the far wall. I am used to swimming in a 50-meter pool, and this was, if I recall correctly, a hot tub. My face and the wall embraced like old friends, or more accurately, like a water balloon filled with blood and cartilage hugging a slab of concrete.
"Oops," was my first clear thought, followed closely by "Uh-oh." And finally, once I had time to weigh the situation fully, "Oh no, the source of my powers!"
Now, you may be thinking, "How does any of this explain why you took off your pants in the waiting room of the ER and cried in that windowsill?" Well, there are two answers, really. One is that in my rush to get to the hospital while still hoping to appear presentable, I put on jeans but failed to take off my sopping wet swimsuit first. And the second is that I was very very drunk.
Which I would have thought was obvious.
Now, nobody likes wearing wet jeans, so I hope that progression makes a little more sense now. As for the crying, I'd expect a doctor to know that emotions are heightened by alcohol, and I refuse to apologize for preparing myself for the worst-case scenario. It may not have been obvious to you, but behind the swelling scabs and blood-soaked towel, I am very handsome. Some would say abusively so. I don't expect you to understand how catastrophic it would be for a handsome person to lose his handsomeness (how could you, with that sloping forehead, that ear hair?), but my whole identity and my entire life hinge on me being good-looking, forever. That's why, when we first met, instead of introducing myself like a normal person, I instead asked you through deep sobs who was going to love me now. See? Not so weird after all.
That Part Where I Requested to Be Carried to My Room
There's no way you could have known this at the time, but I am a big fan of blood staying inside bodies. Loose blood makes me very anxious, particularly when it is my own. While some people have called it a "crippling phobia," I prefer to think of it as a "realistic understanding and respect for the value of life, goddammit." Everything about exposed blood looks and smells like a warning, and anyone who is comfortable ignoring that warning probably has a numb and calloused soul.
"We have traded in our instincts for money."
I am not cavalier about letting blood go; it's mine, I made it, and it's mine.
Now, as you saw, a facial wound coupled with hot water and topped up with alcohol is the perfect combination for a blood storm, something I genuinely try to avoid by passing out. But in this circumstance, the nurse at the front desk told me several times that passing out was the one thing I wasn't allowed to do. So I had to lie there on my windowsill, with my life force seeping into a towel while I waited for you to come help me.
On top of all of that, I'm no idiot, Doc. I know that somewhere behind those double doors that lead to the serious side of the hospital, you have gallons of blood hidden. You probably have whole trash bags of blood back there, filled so full that their seams are stretching, and now snapping. Frankly, I'm surprised every time an elevator door opens in a hospital and The Shining wave of blood doesn't come roaring out. You have all gotten very lucky for a very long time.
Pictured: Surely at least one hospital, right now.
So I hope with that context, it's a little clearer why I refused to move when you asked me to follow you through those doors. And why, when you turned to look at me, I made the request to be carried. I'm not crazy, you are just dead inside from cutting up cadavers your whole life.

Are you ribbing me?
May 17, 2013 - John Mehno
Too early to tell if this is good news, but it certainly qualifies as interesting.
Published reports indicate Burger King will add a barbecue boneless "rib" sandwich to its summer menu next week. This is obviously modeled after the McRib, a McDonald's offering that makes limited appearances on the menu under the golden arches.
The BK version also includes pickles and onions. It's on a standard-type bun instead of the rectangular version that McDonald's uses for the McRib.
It's certainly worth a try, and I'll swing by my neighborhood BK to sample one with a frozen Coke next week.
I've written before about my fondness for the McRib. Readers with good intentions have sent me links to stories detailing the dubious content in the processed pork patty. All I can say is after 35 years of eating the free halftime hot dogs in the Steelers press room, I don't scare easily.

The experimentation with year's batch of pumpkins has begun! Since Canadian Thanksgiving is next Monday, I am in the kitchen trying to plan out this year's meal. I wanted to make a baked custard with a caramel bottom, but the trick is trying to mimic the texture of an egg custard. I tried this recipe a few different ways, and this version is the best. It's not really like a "real" custard, but it is still really good. I'm also not sure if I am complicating the method a bit, but I have run out of time to refine the recipe further. In any event, the end result is still really good and is a great alternative for those who aren't crazy about pumpkin pie.
NOTE: I have revised this recipe here.
Makes 4 custard cups
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 2 cups plain soy milk
- 1 tbsp agar agar flakes
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup coconut cream
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 tbsp arrowroot
1. Grease 4 ramekins (with 1 cup capacity).
2. Place sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Without stirring, heat sugar until it caramelizes (turns brown and liquefies). Shake pan to melt all the sugar. Add spices, quickly stir in, then quickly pour 1/4 of mixture into each ramekin to coat the bottom. Set ramekins aside.
3. Whisk agar flakes into soy milk and sugar and heat in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to bubbling, stirring constantly, until agar is fully dissolved. Place in the fridge to cool and set (about 1 hr).
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Get a kettle of water boiling.
5. When soy milk mixture has set, place in a food processor with coconut cream, pumpkin, vanilla, and arrowroot. Process until very smooth. Pour into the four ramekins.
6. Place ramekins in a 9 x 13 pan, and fill pan with boiling water, no more than 1/3 the way up the ramekins. Bake in the oven for 45-50 mins, until top has browned and center has set.
7. Cool in the fridge until custard has fully set.
To serve, place ramekin back in hot water, or microwave for 10-15 seconds to reheat caramel. Either eat the custard in the ramekin, or run a sharp knife around the edge and invert into a shallow bowl. If some caramel is left behind, heat ramekin again and pour caramel over the custard.

Riverside here. Replaced my trusty Hughes SD-DVR80 with a THR22-100 this afternoon. They had to replace my ancient dish with a "Slimline" unit.
My system is having the same 90% issue. So far I've let it try a half-dozen times and I've noticed it is different each time. They number at the upper left sometimes count up, sometimes they do not. For example, right now it is stuck at 90% and the numbers at the top are 2/4/85/20. In reaching this number the 85 incremented while the 20 actually counts up to about 40 and then goes back to a lower number a few times through the process. During a previous sequence the number started at 2/1/1/x. When it starts with that it does not increment as the percentage increases to 90.
I'm going to keep track of these numbers. They appear to be versions or patches and may be relevant. I have not called DirecTV yet, getting this receiver at all was tricky and i don't want it taken away!
Those numbers are stages of reprogramming certain sectors of flash chip ...

Can you define these popular missing words?

Posts tagged watch hd television on my pc
Want to Enjoy HD Channels On PC?
There was this survey taking place somewhere in Europe last year, about what makes a TV show really great. The hypothesis was that people would go for great screenwriting, story and plot, screenplay, etc. However, surprisingly, a lot of people came up with a different notion, saying it is the video quality of HD channels on PC that makes them want to watch TV shows, and most of them do not even turn the actual television on.
Surprisingly, that is a true notion people have grasped these days. A lot of people are going for the HD satellite channels on PC just to watch their favorite shows in super clear videos with extended audio features. Even the boring shows are gaining TRPs these days just because they are being broadcasted with HD audios and videos, and people really enjoying watching them on PC. Satellite Direct TV software allows you to access over 3500 HD channels and watch them as long as you like, access is unlimited and all you have to pay is 1-time fee for this powerful soft, not a cent more.
There have been quite some reasons behind it. The high definition video is one thing, but it is also the availability of shows at any time you want. A few years ago, if you had missed a show due to work, that show was gone; the only way you could watch it was by renting or buying VHS tapes released later. On the other hand, the HD channels providers offer comprehensive benefits like recording and repeating of TV shows, so that even if you miss a show, you can watch it later at your own convenient time.
Then there comes another reason why people enjoy HD tv channels on laptops, and that is the feature of saving videos on hard drive. A lot of HD channel providers offer their service through dedicated application programs, which allow the users to save their favorite shows on PC, which they can later burn in DVDs.
For all those reasons, people nowadays really prefer to watch their favorite shows in HD channels available on PC. Quality multimedia, quick access, easy to use features – all these have made it a definite revolution in TV media.

What do you think about standing sections? Do you think its good/bad?
Do you think that only "hooligans" is in the standing sections, and do you even think that is bad?
Some examples from the SEL:
Supportergroup: Northpower
Town Skellefteå - 35 000 people in the city.
Team: Skellefteå AIK
Arena: Skelleteå Kraft Arena - 6001 seats/standing
http://www.youtube.c...h?v=OXym5kV0oxE go to 0:49 on this clip
Supportergroup: Järnkaminerna
Town: Stockholm - 1 000 000
Team: Djurgården IF
Arena: Ericcson Globe about 13 000 seats. Second clip: Johannes hov about 8000 seats
I think that the sections are very important to the teams, and its a great feeling when your in a "cheer section".
What do you think? Do you want it in the NHL?

Promotion race takes centre stage
Click here for exclusive match highlights from every day's play, latest scores, reports, news and interviews during the LV= County Championship campaign
With Warwickshire crowned Division One champions last week while Worcestershire and last year's winners Lancashire were relegated, the spotlight is on the top of Division Two for the last round of LV= County Championship games which begin tomorrow.
Leaders Derbyshire, who have not won in their last four championship matches, are a point ahead of Yorkshire with Kent five further back. Fourth-placed Hampshire, 24 points behind the White Rose, can mathematically go up but it would take an improbable set of results.
Derbyshire host Hampshire at the County Ground, Yorkshire face Essex at Chelmsford and Kent, who last week threw the race open by beating Derbyshire for a second straight win, play Glamorgan at the SWALEC Stadium.
Derbyshire, who are offering bargain ticket prices, are again without injured bowlers Mark Footitt and Jonathan Clare.
Captain Wayne Madsen told ecb.co.uk: "They're still out with niggles and injuries so they probably won't be available. The squad is pretty much the same squad that we had down at Kent."
Hampshire have rested Simon Katich ahead of Saturday's Clydesdale Bank 40 final with Warwickshire. They are also without the injured Dimitri Mascarenhas, England Twenty20 squad member Danny Briggs and Neil McKenzie, who is set to return from South Africa for the CB40 showpiece.
Yorkshire are still missing Richard Pyrah, who has a hand problem, plus England duo Jonny Bairstow and Tim Bresnan.
Maurice Chambers, who has a quad strain, has joined David Masters on Essex's injury list. Chambers' place will be taken by Tymal Mills in the only change to the side that beat Hampshire last week as Ravi Bopara remains on England duty and Test captain Alastair Cook is unavailable.
Glamorgan's Robert Croft is expected to make his 407th and final first-class appearance. The bottom side have again omitted departing paceman James Harris and are without Marcus North, who is back in Australia.
The teams immediately above Glamorgan, Leicestershire and Gloucestershire, meet at Grace Road. Ramnaresh Sarwan misses out for the hosts, whose opponents are without Chris Dent and Ian Saxelby, respectively due to shoulder and knee complaints, but have Australia batsman Ed Cowan available for an unexpected extra fixture.
Warwickshire - who play Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge - have Ian Bell and Chris Woakes back from England duty but not Jonathan Trott, who is out for the rest of the season with a hand injury.
Wicketkeeper Tim Ambrose remains sidelined by a hamstring problem although Jeetan Patel is available after Test duty with New Zealand. Will Porterfield and Boyd Rankin have linked up with Ireland's World Twenty20 squad.
Notts are without Adam Voges, who has returned to Australia, the injured Andre Adams plus England quintet Stuart Broad, Alex Hales, Michael Lumb, Samit Patel and Graeme Swann.
Somerset and Sussex are challenging Middlesex, who have completed their season, for second place in Division One.
Somerset - missing England duo Craig Kieswetter and Jos Buttler plus Ireland's George Dockrell - take on Worcestershire at Taunton. Nick Compton is set to return from a back injury that interrupted his prolific season with the bat.
Sussex are away to Durham, who will be unchanged unless Mark Wood comes in. England's Luke Wright and Ireland's Ed Joyce are on international duty, while Matt Prior and Murray Goodwin also miss out for the Emirates Durham ICG visitors. Chris Nash leads in Joyce's absence and Amjad Khan remains sidelined with a knee injury.
Lancashire host Surrey at Aigburth, with England bowlers James Anderson and Jade Dernbach unavailable for their respective sides. The visitors have rested Kevin Pietersen and Murali Kartik. Steven Davies returns behind the stumps after Gary Wilson joined Ireland's T20 squad.

Educational Background
- Ph.D., Brandeis University
Scholarly Interests
- Low energy positron beams
- Positronium
- Surface physics
Research Interests
- David Schoepf uses anti-matter electrons (positrons) as probes to study the chemical and physical properties of metals and molecular compounds. Positrons injected into a material either annihilate directly with electrons in the material or after forming Positronium (a positron-electron 'atom'). A study of positron lifetimes in these materials can yield information about the properties of the electrons. This exotic probe provides a sensitive technique that complements other experimental methods for understanding the chemical binding, electron density, and free-volume in these materials.

FREMONT - Mohawk had a few things to work on coming off Saturday's loss to Arlington, but there just wasn't the time to practice.
It's tough to have practice when it's illegal to go outside.
Mohawk had a total of one hour of gym time between Saturday's loss and Thursday's trip to Fremont to take on St. Joe. The results, according to coach Mike Beck: "Wasn't quite as ugly as I thought it would be, actually."
Article Photos
Mohawk's Julie Adelsperger leads the pack on a fast break, going up for a layup against St. Joe's Ashley Burns. Mohawk's Megan Cleveland (40) and the rest of the team trail the play.
The Warriors shook off any rust that may have built up as a strong defensive effort and a balanced offense keyed them to a 62-39 win over the Crimson Streaks.
"For us it was really good to get back in the gym," Beck said. "We had Sunday, Monday, Tuesday completely off. Then yesterday ... our kids did get to go in and shoot for about an our. Other than it, it felt great to get back in the gym."
"It feels a lot better after that loss on Saturday, but those four days off, we thought we'd come in a little bit uglier than that," Kasey Adelsperger added. "But I guess we had so much energy built up we can just go with it."
While the roads may have been a little clearer Thursday, the lanes in Fremont were full. Mohawk's defense seemingly had a hand in the passing lanes at all times, leading to 33 St. Joe turnovers, 19 of which were Warrior steals. Clara Adelsperger led Mohawk with six swipes and Taylor McClain added four.
"We made some changes defensively during the game. I think that helped us," Beck said. "Our trapping defense tonight seemed to work. We've been trying to get better at getting in the passing lanes. We work on that a lot in practice no matter what defense we're in."
Adelsperger, who tallied a game-high 17 points, said the key was the way her team communicated with each other.
"We were talking really well tonight, telling each other where the cutters were and just helping each other out," she said. "We did really well on help defense, I feel, and our backside rebounding didn't hurt us either."
However, Mohawk had trouble getting much separation from St. Joe early on. The Streaks' Ashley Burns scored 11 of her 15 points in the first half as the teams went into the break with a 27-18 Mohawk lead.
St. Joe scored the first six coming out of the locker room to get within three. But from there, Mohawk went on a 19-1 run that turned out to be decisive.
"We realized that we needed to kick it in gear after halftime," Mohawk's Megan Cleveland said. "So we basically just did, and it seemed to work mainly through transition. Getting up and down the floor and pushing ourselves really hard."
Cleveland came off the bench to score 13 points while pulling down seven rebounds.
According to Beck, it was easy to see how the run started.
"I think the defense started it," he said. "We were in the trapping defense, basically backed it up, was just playing quarter-court, but the girls kept wanting to extend. (Julie) Adelsperger on top, she'll really get after it. She's almost like a one-person press at times with her enthusiasm.
"We were trying to back it up a little bit, she kept wanting to come out. That worked out well for us ... we had some transition baskets real early in the quarter that I think helped spark our offense."
Mohawk thrived in the transition game as many of the St. Joe turnovers turned into points on the other end of the floor. As a team, Mohawk dished out 14 assists, led by McClain and Julie Adelsperger each with four.
"We did a really good job of communicating today," Cleveland said. "We did very well in transition and we seemed to really connect today."
"Everyone was really chipping in tonight," Adelsperger added. "We were really pushing the ball up the court, so that got us many options out of that, and transition worked really well for us. We really didn't have to set too many plays with the transition."
Julie Adelsperger was the third Warrior scoring in double figures with 15 points. She also grabbed a game-high nine rebounds.
St. Joe played without two injured starters. Coach Dennis Martin used a lineup consisting of three freshmen and two sophomores in its top eight. Despite the loss, he said he was pleased with the progress his young team is making.
"Our kids are finally just letting it go and not dwelling on the negatives and just playing," he said. "And that's all we can do at this point because we're so young. They're starting to have fun. ...
"It is what it is at this point. I just told them down there, 'I'm not displeased at all.' This is what we have, but they play hard for 32 minutes. That's all you can ask."
Mohawk improves to 7-6, 3-2 in the Midland Athletic League. St. Joe falls to 3-7, 1-3.

I feel emotions with all of my senses, smelling little heads and caressing soft cheeks. I feel like life is complete, they are everything, my heart is full. So very full.
And I looked at that bed of us piled together, realizing in just a few months there will be a newborn baby. A little girl watching on, wide-eyed at these big brothers, this family of comics, wrestlers, and storytellers. This family that is already so fulfilled, how blessed we are to have a new life join the party. It's more than we could have ever wanted. And then some.

So, have you heard any good Miley Cyrus jokes this week?
Although many found her pathetic, desperate-for-attention performance at the MTV Video Music Awards Sunday to be funny, it was actually a sad moment for American youth.
Cyrus became hugely famous as a teenage pop singer and star of the squeaky clean Disney Channel show "Hannah Montana." The daughter of country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, she sold more than 15 million albums between 2007 and 2010.
That wasn't enough, apparently. Now 20 years old, Miley resurfaced this year with a buzzcut hairdo and a trashy new image, hellbent on leaving her Disney days behind. Her performance at the VMAs Sunday was a quantum leap forward in sleaziness, however: scantily clad, her tongue hanging out like a basset hound's, she shook her scrawny body and grabbed herself in some very unladylike ways. MTV censored nothing, blurred out none of it.
Her performance was truly sad and deeply disturbing - and millions of kids watched it.
It was sad because it was such a transparently desperate stab at pop culture relevance by a celebrity whose music and movie career has been on the wane. Now, after one degrading television performance, seemingly everyone in America is talking about Miley Cyrus - even if many are making fun of her.
It was disturbing because she has been a role model for so many American children. How many times in recent years have you seen little girls wearing Hannah Montana T-shirts, jackets, purses or sunglasses? Although Miley is now a young woman, millions of her fans are still kids.
If a "Hannah Montana" fan was 5 years old when the show premiered in 2006, she is now only 12. Watching Miley on Sunday, that girl may have gotten some very twisted ideas about what it means to become a woman.
The national media was full of reports Monday about parents outraged by their daughters' sudden interest in twerking, a vulgar form of dancing in which females bend forward and violently shake their nether regions. Why did twerking suddenly become so popular - and scandalous - Monday? Because of Miley's shameless performance Sunday, of course.
Parents are rightfully angry with MTV. Unfortunately, twerking and even more salacious activities can easily be viewed online at websites as seemingly "kid friendly" as YouTube. Our popular culture has slid so far down that fabled "slippery slope" that it's become seemingly impossible for parents to protect their children from unwanted influences.
What parents can do, however, is get their kids involved in positive local activities to balance out all the sleaziness in our culture. Taking part in fun, rewarding projects along with other children, supervised by caring adults, can have much more of an influence on kids than MTV, the Internet or any other form of entertainment.
We are fortunate to have a multitude of positive youth programs and organizations in our area. Below are just a handful of them, along with contact information:
- Randolph County 4-H, 304-636-2455
- Boy Scouts of America: Ben Propst, Highlands District coordinator, 304-457-4752
- Girl Scouts of the USA: Susan Rieser, Black Diamond Council coordinator, 304-745-3732
- Elkins/Randolph County YMCA, 304-636-4515
- YES (Youth Empowered Solutions), 304-636-6182
- West Virginia Wing Civil Air Patrol, 304-842-3606
- Old Brick Playhouse apprentice program, 304-637-9090
- Randolph County America's Promise Coalition, 304-636-4454
- Young Life, 304-940-9090
Kids may also be interested in the area's many excellent sports programs and church activities, too numerous to mention here. School bands and music programs are also very rewarding for children, and the Randolph County Community Arts Center offers a wide variety of arts, music and pottery classes, including an after-school art club. The RCCAC's number is 637-2355.
Despite adults' grumbling, kids really are interested in more than just cellphones, tablets and video games. Any one of the programs listed above could make a major difference in a child's development.
And none of them involve twerking. Thank goodness.

An Erie County sheriff's deputy pleaded guilty Monday to vehicular assault and driving while intoxicated for striking and critically injuring a motorcyclist in August at Sheridan Drive and Bailey Avenue in Amherst.
Michael Haug, 29, of Kenmore, faces anywhere from probation to up to seven years in state prison when he's sentenced by Erie County Judge Thomas P. Franczyk on Jan. 30.
"The Office of District Attorney will prosecute an offender regardless of whether he wears a badge," Erie County District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III said. "This defendant was prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."
The crash happened at about 4 a.m. Aug. 4, when the deputy was off duty.
The victim, Daniel J. Colosimo, 37, of the Town of Tonawanda, suffered a traumatic brain injury when he was thrown from his 1982 Suzuki motorcycle. He was taken to Erie County Medical Center, where he was admitted in critical condition and treated for his injuries .
Colosimo was stopped at a red light on the westbound side of Sheridan Drive, at Bailey Avenue. He was struck from behind by Haug, who was driving a 2011 Jeep, Amherst police said.
Colosimo was in the courtroom Monday when Haug pleaded guilty.
Haug refused a blood-alcohol test the morning of the collision, and Amherst police obtained a court order from a judge to have his blood drawn, authorities said.
His blood-alcohol content was 0.25 percent, which allowed prosecutors to upgrade the vehicular assault charge to a higher level of felony than he was initially charged with, said Kelley A. Omel, chief of the Erie County District Attorney's Office's Vehicular Crimes Bureau.
Haug had been on the force for 5½ years at the time of the crash.
The crash tore Colosimo's small intestine, bruised his internal organs, broke a leg in three places and ripped off his helmet when he landed on his head.
