|I had found Rev, Gary Ritner on the Knot website, so didn't know what to expect. He ended up being one of the kindest and most calming people I have ever met! He made us feel at ease! He was open to all of our ideas and even has a online tool for helping with vows etc. We had a lot of guests think that we had known him for years because of how personal he made the ceremony feel!
|We cried together when we sat down to watch the fantastic video that you produced for us. I have heard people talk about acting in movies, but not knowing how it would all look after the editing and effects were added. We experienced our wedding more completely while watching the video than we did while it was happening. We plan to view it every anniversary. We are so glad that we decided to have you do this for us. We cannot thank you enough!
|B and G

|We are truly blessed to have found someone like Gary. His poise and relaxed personality made us feel so comfortable. He set our minds at ease with everything during the rehearsal, the ceremony and the reception. Our pictures turned out beautiful and he captured more than we ever could have imagined. I would recommend him to anyone. I know any bride and groom would be happy.
|S and S
|The pictures look great! Thanks for the quick work. Also thank you for everything else. You did a fantastic job with the ceremony and helping coordinate the day. I wish we knew of other people in the market for a minister/photographer because we would recommend you with flying colors in a second. All our friends got a kick out of the fact you were a one stop shop/jack of all trades!
|S and S
|Thanks again for everything, Gary! We loved your style and personal touch that you gave to our day. Thank you for a beautifully delivered ceremony. We loved it! We have received many compliments from our guests!

In response to a request for reviews on Gary Ritner's Services on theKnot.com:
From: fruehtobe, 9/12/2005 at 4:33 pm
He is hands down the greatest! We found him when we backed out of our sight about 7 weeks before the wedding. No church = no minister! We mostly communicated through emails after our first meeting with him. He always replied very promptly. He prefers to do the rehearsal 90 minutes before the ceremony to ensure everyone is there on time. That worked well for us, but he'll also be flexible and work with your schedule. He is such a happy guy. We were very comfortable with him the moment we met him.
Any specific questions, please ask.
From: stierwaescherin, 9/12/2005 at 4:35 pm
He married my cousin, and his wife, Pam Armstrong, will marry us (Gary was booked for our date). He did an absolutely fabulous job for my cousin; it was a great ceremony, moving but still funny in spots, and I thought it was reflective of their personalities. I've interacted with him some because he fields some of Pam's e-mails, and he's been great. Also met him when we met with Pam, and he was also very friendly then. So, in a nutshell, I'd say he's a good egg. HTH.
From: bee1107, 9/12/2005 at 4:44 pm
He was great! We were very excited to find someone that fit us so well. He knew the wedding message by heart (we didn't edit that part of the ceremony much), so he had a good connection with our guests. He has a really interesting background, make sure to ask him about it if you meet with him.
From: JonAndLys061106, 9/12/2005 at 4:48 pm
Sounds like a winner! :-) Thanks to all of you.. We are excited to work with him and feel really confident about it now.. Thanks, Alyssa
From: Lisa51405, 9/12/2005 at 5:11 pm
He did a great job - review in bio.
|This Thread is From theKnot.com
|Thank you so much for your help, the website is awesome, I would have had no clue what to do!
|M and W
|Definitely one of our favorite vendors! Gary was very open to making the ceremony the way we wanted it. He was always punctual and friendly, and did a nice job with our wedding message. He didn't read the whole ceremony script, so there was a great connection between him and the guests. (This review appeared on The Knot web site).
|B and E
|Gary, thanks so much for offiaiting at our wedding! We are blessed to have you join us together in marriage!
|Z and J
|Thank you for putting so much time and effort into our wedding ceremony. It was exactly what we wanted. On Sunday morning, (two days after the wedding) our 7 year-old nephew woke up and asked my new husband if he remebered what he was supposed to say to me every morning - "You are beautiful!" He remembered this all on his own. He'll make a great husband some day! We feel blessed to have "found" you and are so thankful for your words and your commitment to us.
|K and J
|We want to thank you so very much for peforming our wedding service. You really made us feel at ease on such a stressful and exciting day. Thank you for making our wedding day truly memorable!
|A and R
|Our friends and family commented on what a perfect wedding you officiated. It was warm, calm, emotional, caring and professional. We did not know what to expect. Had we known how wonderful it would be, we would have relaxed even more and enjoyed the moment more completely. Even with our anxiousness, we experienced a joyfilled and loving atmosphere and our guests did too. Thank you so much!
|T and A
|He did an outstanding job. Having a pastor perform our ceremony was really important to DH's family. His website is very helpful, and everyone loved the wedding message. He did a great job directing the rehearsal, and is a very nice person. Would highly recommend him.
|L and J
|I just want to say thank you for a beautiful wedding ceremony!! You did a great job and made our day very special to us. Thank you again!!!! God Bless
|R and N
|We had never done this before, but Gary had planned hundreds of services. We asked for his advice on many details and he anticipated problems and solutions. We started planning with many fears about what we might forget, but our fear was calmed quickly by his confidence and knowledge.
|M and M
|We had planned on having a sound system for Gary, but there were some problems at the last minute and Gary had to speak loud enough for everyone to hear without a mic. He had no problem as his deep voice carried well. It was clear that he had plenty of experience speaking without a mic. We felt bad at first that we did not have a mic, but it all worked out fine.
|L and H
|We signed contracts for all the other services that we reserved for our wedding, so we expected to have a contract with our wedding officiant. Gary's 'Agreement Form' online was the easiest of these agreements for us to use and the process of email replies and adjustments was very helpful. Thanks, Gary!
|L and B
|Thank you so much for your part in our perfect day. The ceremony was beautiful and you were such a joy. We really appeciate your service and your just being there. Thanks again!
|Our parents were concerned that we were getting married in a park and did not have our wedding in a church. However, they think that you are a real good 'preacher' and they were very happy that we had a Christian wedding. Thanks for the spiritual feeling that pleased us in a different way but also satisfied their longing for a Church wedding for their kids.
|O and G
|Working with Gary was easy. He made things simple. We had so much to do besides the service and we just left the service in his hands. He helped us to look forward to the service and not be anxious. It was just as he promised - meaningful, emotional, and joyful!
|P and W
|Before the wedding some things were going all wrong and we were wondering if it were a bad omen. Minutes into the service, things were all falling into place and nothing else seemed important any more. Thanks for helping to settle the chaos with a well-planned service.
|S and D
|Your 'Magical Phrases' were the talk of the reception. So true! Several people told us that they felt that such things were among the keys to the success of their marriage. There was a lot of joking and fun about it too. Thanks for your humor. It increased the wonderful feelings of the day for us and others. We will be sure to recommend your services to others!
|A and J
|We really appreciated your allowing us to choose whatever we wanted in the service. Your Service Planning Tool helped so much!
|R and T
|Gary arrived an hour before the wedding, reassured us that everything was under control, filled out the license, and talked us through some details. He was calm and yet energetic. His well-timed pauses and perfect reading of the service as well as his extemporaneous wedding message helped us to feel the importance and heightened emotions of our vows. Everything went very smoothly.
|K and B
|Thanks for your time and talent in officiating at our wedding. We were both shaking when the service began, but you were cool and that helped us to settle into the beauty of the moment.
|V and T
|The Form that we filled out for requesting a date for our wedding was very useful. It was clear that you have been doing this for a long time and you knew what to ask and how to help us. Thanks for anticipating the issues we needed to deal with before we knew what was needed. It was so helpful to have the Wedding Planning Tool to make some decisions about the content in our service.
|J and D
|Gary took digital pictures for our wedding and created a web site. It was so helpful to have the site so that our friends and family around the country could see our wedding pictures. We had expected to spend way too much on photos, but this was a great alternative and it worked better than passing the pictures around or just putting them in an album months later. Gary had them online before we left for the honeymoon the next day.
|L and C
|You stayed in touch with us several times before the wedding so that we knew everything was on track. We really appreciated the way you went beyond what we expected before the service. The details were a bit overwhelming to us, but you helped to make sense of and simplify the service issues. Thanks!
|H and F
|Many told us that your radiant smile reflected our love and joy. We were facing forward and people could not see us, but they saw you and your smiling throughout the service communicated the joy that we felt and would have shown to people if we had been facing them. Thanks for showing them our joy with your smile.
|T and M
|We have not been part of a church, but we have faith and you helped us to feel God's blessing.

Startup Founders: The One No-Ifs-Ands-Or-Buts Action You Need to Take Right Now
Janice Fraser, LUXr co-founder and CEO, shares her advice for founders.
Janice Fraser, LUXr co-founder and CEO, shares her advice for founders.
Every company has a set of underlying values, and these become apparent in the products you deliver to your customers.
The LUXr Workshop For Startup Visions and Values on Tuesday, December 18 in San Francisco, CA helps founders like yourself articulate the purpose of your company and the values that drive you. As founders, you are setting the initial conditions for your startup, and these conditions define the culture as you grow. With a clear purpose and strong values, you can rally your entire team around the vision.

I joined the .CO team way back in 2008, when we were putting together the bid to win the right to launch the .CO domain globally. Our little startup won the right to administer .CO in 2009, beating out industry giants like Verisign, which runs the .com and .net domain extensions. What a great coup! I was passionate about our mission from the very start – and continue to be so to this day.
So what is .CO? Some call it a "domain name" or a "web address," others use more technical terms like "extension", "url" or "TLD". But to a growing community of the world's most creative and

My first experience at Lean Startup Machine (LSM) was also the first Lean Startup Machine ever held. It was just over a year ago, and I mean that literally. I walked into LSM at Hive at 55 and began relationships that I hold among the closest in my professional life today.
As an attendee at the first #LsmNYC, I absorbed firsthand guidance from two actual practitioners of Lean: Brant Cooper, Co-Author of The Entrepreneurs Guide to Customer Development, and Giff Constable, who was going "lean" with his startup Aprizi.

Athletic director Jim Weaver made the announcement in conjunction with associate AD Tom Gabbard, whose supervises the basketball program. Weaver declared Tech "needed to go in another direction in our men's basketball program," and that Greenberg had been terminated effective immediately.
It was an odd time to remove Greenberg, coming three weeks to the day after the NCAA championship game and 45 days after the Hokies concluded their season with a loss in the ACC Tournament – a four-point loss to an eventual No. 2 NCAA Tournament seed that dropped the Hokies to 16-17.
Virginia Tech since had seen three basketball assistants leave for other positions. Weaver said he and Gabbard subsequently decided they would not extend Greenberg's contract next year, or the year after that. In their view, bringing back Greenberg for 2011-12 meant they'd have ended up paying a full staff of lame-duck coaches for several months next spring along with a new staff that would be entering the program.
"We did not think that was the way to go," Weaver said.
Virginia Tech will commence searching for a new coach after nearly 40 other programs have completed the process and lots of terrific candidates have gained new situations. Weaver said he would not rule out any sort of candidate: an experienced head coach, a young coach at a mid-major, an accomplished assistant.
Weaver was asked if he would have removed Greenberg even if the assistant coaches hadn't left the program. He said "in all likelihood" he would have. However, Weaver said, "I don't like coaches leaving an ACC program where we have constantly got to replenish all of our staff. To have as many leave as we have sat the wrong way with me."
There were reasons beyond Greenberg's control for his assistants to depart. It can be argued his staff was underpaid. Tech's coaches made less than at least six public institutions who are ACC members. After James Johnson left Tech to join the staff at Clemson, Weaver went to the university president to get permission to raise basketball staff compensation. That was too late to help Greenberg retain staff members.
Another reason for coaches to depart was the possibility that Greenberg, 56, would not be long for the Virginia Tech job. Although they finished fourth or better in the ACC five times in his tenure, the Hokies made only one NCAA Tournament appearance under Greenberg. Assistant Rob Ehsan and director of basketball operations Jeff Wulbrun had the chance to join new coach Jerod Haase at UAB, and Johnson got the opportunity to work with Clemson's Brad Brownell.
So this was all kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy.
"It had nothing to do with losing. It had nothing to do with NCAA appearances," Weaver said. "It had something to do with people leaving, and it had something to do with me wanting to change the direction and leadership of the program."
Weaver explained he felt there was a family atmosphere in other segments of the Virginia Tech athletic department that did not exist in the basketball program but chose not to explain exactly what he meant because, "I'm not here to throw Coach Greenberg under the bus."
Greenberg had four years remaining on his contract, so this need not turn out badly for him. He will be coveted as a television analyst, having prepared for the job with frequent March appearances in previous years on CBS College Sports and last month with ESPN, where he appeared frequently on SportsCenter segments breaking down the NCAA Tournament.
But Greenberg is – or was – a basketball coach who did his job well, well enough that he deserved for his career to meet with a more seemly end. He was 170-123 at Tech and had winning records in seven of nine seasons. Weaver said he believed Tech had an "outstanding team" coming back, and would get a coach it deserved. One could argue that coach was Greenberg, since the players all signed up to play under him.
Weaver's last contradiction was this: "I happen to believe continuity goes a long way to establishing successful operations, whether it's in athletics or the business world or whatever. And that's what I'd like to see in our entire department."

The entities that owned XIN was Blue Ridge China Partner's limited partners who put up a minimum investment. BR China Partners II had a $5 million minimum per limited unit...seems like the were a hundred or more limited partners. Blue Ridge Capital Ltd was the general partner to the partnership holding XIN's shares. BR Capital Ltd did get a fee for being the general partner....and had to file because they had "shared voting power" and made the "investment decisions".
Generally no one puts money into a limited partnership without the ability to get their money back in a reasonable amount of time...usually with a legal framework set up beforehand.
Usually the general partner holds some limited ownership units.
Blue Ridge China Partners could well have a sunset clause or wound down for whatever reason.....and BR Capital Ltd continued on as an entity.
BR China Partners may have sold XIN because...
They did not like being public...except for 2008 financial meltdown they would have been gone from XIN long ago?
They do not like China real estate long term?
They do not like USA real estate?
They wish to book profits this year because of lower tax rates? To offset losses taken this year?
The limited partners thought "JAG"s fees were much too high?
ETC. Etc. Etc.
Two reasons that do not make my list are.
1) Penny-ante differences in timing of dividends.
2) BR Ltd haveing any inside information....which they don't. Their insider has been gone almost two years and may never have been on good terms with each other.
Star, let's try to figure this out.
You say: "The entities that owned XIN was Blue Ridge China Partner's limited partners who put up a minimum investment." I have a few questions:
1. When you say "Blue Ridge China Partner," do you mean the same fund I've been calling "LLC"? If not, then how did LLC come to own those 11 million shares by June 30th, 2012? Did they buy them from "Blue Ridge China Partner"?
2. You say: "Blue Ridge Capital Ltd was the general partner to the partnership holding XIN's shares." Is, therefore, "the partnership holding XIN's shares" the same fund I've been calling LLC?
3. Can we at least agree that LLC owned 11 million shares of XIN on June 30th, which it sold by Sept 30th? Evidence:
Here's the SEC filings to confirm LLC's holdings. Go to SEC's website and copy and paste the following after the "gov" part to see LLC's Schedule 13F for its June 30th holdings:
And copy and paste this one to see LLC's 13F for its Sept 30th holdings (which no longer contain XIN):
3. If you believe a different fund from LLC actually owned those shares, can you please provide the SEC link to that fund's 13F for its June 30 holdings, so I can see that for myself?
4. When those 11 million shares of XIN were sold, which fund do you believe received the money?
5. Is there any evidence whatsoever -- an SEC filing, a press release, a LINK to a fund's bylaws showing the death date, or any other evidence of any kind -- to suggest that any of the funds you've cited are actually winding down?
I understood that you filed a 13F because you exercised investment discretion...not because you owned a security. Typically the general partner of a limited partnership exercises sole investment discretion.
*** An institutional investment manager that uses the U.S. mail (or other means or instrumentality of interstate commerce) in the course of its business, and exercises investment discretion over $100 million or more in Section 13(f) securities (explained below) must report its holdings on Form 13F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
In general, an institutional investment manager is: (1) an entity that invests in, or buys and sells, securities for its own account; or (2) a natural person or an entity that exercises investment discretion over the account of any other natural person or entity. Institutional investment managers can include investment advisers, banks, insurance companies, broker-dealers, pension funds, and corporations. ***
4) Who gets the cash(XIN securities if not sold for cash).....
I believe whoever owns the limited partnership units get the money...whoever they are. There were 127 limited partners for Blue Ridge China Partners II...each of whom invested over $5 million. I didn't see how many limited partners there were for the BR China Partners that owned XIN.

The "première†organization: Larry Nadeau
Editor's Note: This month's Member Profile features Larry Nadeau, Project Manager with the City of Port St. Lucie, Florida, Chair of APWA's Emergency Management Committee, and 2001 Top Ten recipient.
How did you get involved in public works? I'm originally from Fort Kent, Maine, in the northern part of the state. I spent quite a bit of time in Canada growing up. For about 15 years I was involved in turnkey construction and industrial excavation work in a family-owned business. We employed about 50 people and performed ground excavation and construction projects throughout the state.
In 1988 I moved to southern Maine and applied for the position of Public Works Director for the City of Saco, Maine, and that's where I landed. I stayed there for nearly 14 years. I had a great staff and enjoyed every minute of it, working to create a noteworthy organization.
In 1998, after having participated in several presidential disaster declarations, Saco was nominated to become a FEMA Project Impact Community. When I had applied for it I thought it was a long shot, but the application came to fruition. We were selected to become the first community in the State of Maine to receive this momentous nomination.
We undertook several needy projects, created construction standard manuals, prepared an all-hazards plan, developed public works mutual aid plans, and built partnerships with anyone who had an interest in assisting us in becoming more disaster resistant. Our Project Impact program gained regional and national recognition, receiving awards and notoriety for these efforts. We received the Region I "Project Impact Community of the Year†in 1999. These efforts led to the development of a GIS concept through a unique partnership with our Finance Department. We joined our talents to further the community's Asset Management program through the GASB 34 reporting requirement utilizing the modified approach. This was a mutually rewarding cooperative effort.
I have long associated the emergency management family and public works as a kind of a link between each other, because the public works profession responds to emergencies just about daily. In the early 1990s, shortly after I came on board with the City of Saco, I started attending emergency management classes. The more I attended, the more I believed that the link between both was for real. It was soon to follow that I made the connection between being a public works director with the utilization of emergency management concepts as a part of my daily activities, especially in terms of how we could help lessen the burden on our community.
From that point our department's emergency management training and preparation just took off, and we accomplished some tremendous things. I was extremely fortunate to have a good staff that understood and believed in the same ideals. Many awards came our way. I got involved in some educational activities with the State of Maine's Emergency Management team, teaching debris management courses and helping any way that I could. I took the challenge of becoming the County's Infrastructure Coordinator until my departure, and also chaired the County's Local Emergency Planning Commission for several years. So there was a great deal of interaction, which I believe is where we as public servants need to go. Public works professionals need to become part of the family of emergency responders because ultimately that is what we do daily.
I have participated in countless organizations and committees over the years—local, county, state, and federal—always challenging a next association. And that brings us to what we are doing today with public works and APWA's Emergency Management Committee, which I have chaired for the last couple of years. With our latest accomplishment, our Memorandum of Understanding with FEMA, we are seeing a new evolution of commitment coming out of the public works profession. It's the need to understand what's happening holistically that will make everything so much more worthwhile. All the years of training and learning of emergency management concepts are now falling into place.
In 2001 I happened to meet the Director of Public Works for the City of Port St. Lucie during our Congress in Philadelphia, and we started talking about different things, the potential of this and the potential of that. Shortly thereafter, in the spring of 2002, a job opened up here. I applied, was interviewed, and it came to fruition. There was already a fondness of the area, vacationing in Florida just about every season. The day came when the decision was made that I had to do this move. Now here I am in Port St. Lucie with a public works team of high standards. We manage the Emergency Management program for the city. We are the first accredited public works department in the State of Florida, and I believe we are the first public works department to have two APWA Top Ten recipients.
Favorite Book: Well, I'd be kind of blah if I said any type of FEMA manual. But I do like to pick up the emergency management periodicals. I read the APWA Reporter quite dearly. But tied to a book? Not necessarily. I go from magazines to periodicals—anything that has a degree of bringing forth some additional knowledge I try to pack into as much as I can. Lately, it has been college educational pieces that have been occupying my reading time, as I continue my professional development.
Hobbies and Interests: I've dabbled in numismatic and philatelic collectables, doing that for a number of years. I remember starting to collect a few coins when I was 13 years old. There was a competition between a neighbor and myself as to how many buffalo head nickels we could pick up, to see if we could beat each other out. This led to progressive collecting over time. It's not the biggest coin collection in the world, but it has grown over the years. The same with stamps—I had been collecting and storing them away, and then I thought, well, it's time to put them together. Again, not the biggest collection in the world, but I enjoy opening it up, taking a look at it, buying one here and buying one there.
Tell us about the City of Port St. Lucie: Port St. Lucie is probably the fastest growing community in Florida, if not the United States. We are at 100,000 population at this present time, a 40 percent buildout. And that is expected to continue at an unprecedented pace. Thirteen or fourteen years ago the population in Port St. Lucie was around 45,000, and in another 20 years it is projected to be in the 200,000 range or more. The growth here is unbelievable, with people moving in daily and hundreds of building permits being issued per month. Port St. Lucie is nestled east of Lake Okeechobee. The Treasure Coast Area is a beautiful area that offers varied interests and pleasures. Centrally located we are well positioned for access to other notable places of interest.
Why do you like being a member of APWA? I believe we have to look at the definition of public works. Public works is a holistic management of community-owned services as well as its infrastructure. Public works involves everything, from the utilities to streets, drainage, engineering, city facilities, buildings, parks, electrical, emergency management, and water distribution. Looking at public works in such a grand, full-scale, and all-encompassing way makes the American Public Works Association an extremely worthwhile organization to be part of. It is an educational association, it is all encompassing, and it serves everyone that you can possibly think of, no matter where they come from.
I can't say enough about the American Public Works Association. APWA is an organization that stands for its members, stands for our communities, and stands for the services that we are obligated to provide. Ultimately, the rationale for me is because APWA offers this holistic approach—APWA has a piece of everything a public service entity would need to perform.
To me it is like a family business. Here we are, probably a couple thousand miles away, but we can communicate and exchange ideas that are meaningful and can be quickly disseminated across the entire spectrum of this finely woven web of communications, via telephone, electronically, and in person.
We all seem to have the same goal in life. We have the greatest opportunity to meet and talk to people at our chapter meetings and annual conferences. We quickly see that we are all seeking similar information and advice—because we just don't know it all. And when you have that wealth of knowledge and information available through the 27,000 of us in the association…well, it's unbelievable the knowledge and potential that we offer. Unbelievable. We are the "première†organization.

"The last few days have just been a blur of deep emotions" for the Beastie Boys and their family, friends and fans as they mourn the loss of Adam Yauch, known in the seminal hip-hop trio as rapper MCA.
Yauch passed away Friday after a long bout with cancer. The New York native had been in treatment since 2009 after discovering a tumor in his parotid gland, causing the group to delay their "Hot Sauce Committee Part 2" album and preventing them from performing in concert together for the last three years. He was 47.
He co-founded the Beastie Boys with Mike "Mike D" Diamond and Adam "Ad-Rock" Horowitz in 1979, winning three Grammys and three MTV Video Music Awards for their iconic mix of hip-hop and punk music. Under the nickname Nathaniel Hornblower, Yauch was also a filmmaker with his own production company, Oscilloscope Laboratories, and directed many music videos, including the 2011 Sundance Film Festival entry "Fight For Your Right Revisited."
Mike D wrote on the band's official Facebook page Monday morning:
"I know, we should have tweeted and instagrammed every sad, happy and inspired thought, smile or tear by now. But honestly the last few days have just been a blur of deep emotions for our closest friend, band mate and really brother. I miss Adam so much. He really served as a great example for myself and so many of what determination, faith, focus, and humility coupled with a sense of humor can accomplish. The world is in need of many more like him. We love you Adam. BTW this photo sent to me by a friend, (thanks Saslow) is just one awesome example of how NYC is such a unique place that amidst it's huge size and frenetic pace it really opens up it's heart in so many ways and on on so many levels in times like these. And though it makes me cry sometimes, it has been really amazing and moving to see."
Attached was a photo from inside New York City's Madison Square Garden during the Knicks-Heat basketball game with screens everywhere showing "Adam 'MCA' Yauch, 1964-2012" in memoriam.
It was the first word from the group since Friday when Ad-Rock wrote on Tumblr: "I wanna say thank you to all our friends and family (which are kinda one in the same) for all the love and support. I'm glad to know that all the love that Yauch has put out into the world is coming right back at him. Thank you."
An outpouring of grief flooded social media sites throughout the weekend as artists paid tribute and shared their memories of the late Yauch.
Madonna, who reportedly went against her record label's wishes when she asked the Beastie Boys to open for her "The Virgin Tour" in 1985, said Yauch was one of a kind and the band was important to her musical history. The singer told the Associated Press that the hip-hop group was "integral to the musical revolution that was happening at the time."
British pop-rock band Coldplay remembered Yauch with an emotional, piano-driven ballad cover of the Beastie Boys' 1986 breakout hit "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party)" on Friday. Lead singer Chris Martin also name-checked the late rapper midway through the performance at the Hollywood Bowl, just hours after news of Yauch's death broke:
Rolling Stone reports the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with the Beastie Boys last month, also paid tribute to MCA. "We're playing this show tonight for Adam Yauch!" lead singer Anthony Kiedis shouted at a weekend show at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. The band also performed "Gratitude" and an instrumental version of "So What'cha Want," both from the Beasties' 1992 album "Check Your Head."
The Rock Hall induction ceremony aired on HBO on Saturday, showing Mike D and Adrock accepting the award without their ill bandmate. "I'd like to dedicate this to my brothers Adam and Mike," Yauch wrote in a letter they read at the ceremony. "It's also for anyone who has ever been touched by our band. This induction is as much ours as it is yours."

After reading the letters on Mirror's opinion page on Friday, Feb. 15, I question if Ms. Rita Fornwalt and/or Mr. Coyle had read what they had written.
I continue to read and hear in the news about reduction of firearms, ammo clips, etc.
The Second Amendment guarantees ownership of guns. As with everything over the years, items have become more complex, improved and available. This includes firearms.
A concern we should address is people who have a problem. It could be mental or physical. He/she feels that it just cannot be corrected or healed by the traditional means.
Currently, our society is so much different and more difficult than just a few decades ago - horrific, violent, video games, TV violence, social media or face-to-face bullying, loss or lack of Biblical direction, misdirected anger or an unknown reason.
It's very easy to get lost in today's society. The shooters seem to want some attention and/or to solve a problem.
The shooter may know only violence as a solution.
It is necessary, citizens (especially friends or relatives or co-employees) who notice a person or persons seeming to have a problem that could result in violence, to please help that person to seek treatment or as difficult as it may be - report it to the police.
There is a necessity of the firearms being locked and available to the owner only.
Confiscating the guns would probably be considered theft since the Second Amendment guarantees our right as citizens of a free United States to own firearms. There would probably other laws broken.
I believe writer Coyle needs some help with the thoughts and terms he used his opportunity to write, "Gun lover thrills."
Does he really think that gun lovers feel a relationship with their firearms? We do not "fondle" our guns.
We don't get a thrill when we go to the range for practice. We do not assault the target. We shoot a few, be sure the gun chambers are open, call for a clear target range, check the target, and return. We don't use multi-ammo clip guns to hunt or target shooting or just to sight the gun. Usually, the range rules are followed by everyone.
I took the PA Game Hunter's course. I had lessons to shoot. I was taught how to care for my gun. The majority of us - recreational shooters and hunters - follow the rules.

Marcia Carranza
For the Latest Feedback Click Here
Marcia is a guide who goes by many different names. In Corcovado National Park she is "Oruguita" (inch-worm), after the way she climbs into the forest canopy, in Tortuguero National Park she is "Alumna" (schoolgirl) for her small stature, and at home with her brother and sisters she is "Pitín" (you'll just have to ask her).
Born in San Jose, through her career as a guide she has lived all over the country, including its most wild corners, spending extended time in Tortuguero, and six years on the Osa Peninsula.
Marcia's career in the outdoors started in environmental education, where she led student groups on visits to different National Parks, while at the same time completing coursework for a Bachelor of Biology with an emphasis on Ecology and Sustainable Development at the Universidad Latina de Costa Rica.
She first came to Costa Rica Expeditions in 2005, to apply for a position as a transfer guide. She says at the time that she didn't have the slightest idea what the job implied, but only that she wanted to work at CRE. She got an interview, but when Charlie Gomez, our head of guiding and Marcia's interviewer, told her it was time to switch to English, she nearly fainted. She could hardly speak a word! Charlie believed in her potential however, and decided to send her to work at Tortuga Lodge & Garden's front desk, in order to familiarize herself with both the language and the company. Marcia was thrilled at the possibility; her childhood dream had been to experience Corcovado and Tortuguero National Parks. Sure enough, after some time in Tortuguero, her next stop was Corcovado, where she furthered learning our distinct guiding techniques.
Confident in her English now, she enjoys meeting and learning from clients of different nationalities. Her favorite subjects to explore, learn and teach about are those regarding ecology and new projects in sustainable development. A great part of both her expertise and passion are Mangrove forests; she loves introducing visitors to that unique habitat and explaining not just its importance for the fascinating creatures that live there, but also to the world at large, as excellent absorbers of carbon dioxide.
In her free time she enjoys running, mountain biking and hiking in Costa Rica's forests, and when she slows down from that she has also been known to do some knitting. Marcia comes from a family of four, and she is the youngest. She currently lives with two dogs: Minco, a mix breed who she rescued as a puppy, and Tacho, a beloved Labrador.

The resume of a CIA Open Source Officer
Speaking the language of an Open Source Officer
Here's a job title you may not have considered: Open Source Officer. The CIA hires Open Source Officers (OSOs) to collect and analyze publicly available information in foreign affairs to provide unique insights into national security issues. OSOs may specialize in an area of the world (country or region) or a specific topic (like, emerging media technologies or cyber security).
To apply, candidates must be proficient in a foreign language or two (surely, the more the better). The following languages, with relevant area knowledge, are among those desired: Turkish, Farsi/Persian, Kurdish, Hebrew, and Arabic; Spanish, French, Portuguese, and two or more West European languages; East European languages; Russian, Uzbek, Ukrainian, and Central Eurasian dialects; Chinese, Korean, and Japanese; Hindi, Urdu, Dari, and Pashtu.
Kids growing up who may one day be interested in such a job may need some help given the current foreign language curriculum in most American public schools. For those children with parents who speak one of the foreign languages listed above, or who have lived abroad, they may have an advantage. But, what about the vast majority of elementary children who attend public school and come from an English-speaking household and have not lived or travelled abroad?
For many schoolchildren who attend public school, a foreign language is not accessible or available to them until high school. Even then, the foreign languages offered by a school district depends on qualified staff, textbook availability, and local demand or action. I took French for four years in high school because there were many French-Canadians in the town where I grew up; Spanish, German, and Latin were other foreign languages offered in high school at the time, which would have limited the foreign language qualifications needed for the CIA's Open Source Officer position.
Today schoolchildren may have the option to learn a foreign language in elementary school: either through full or partial immersion or a course. A full immersion program would allow children to spend part or all of the school day learning in a second language. Partial immersion programs run on the same principle, but only a portion of the curriculum, such as math and social studies, is presented in the second language.
Immersion programs are becoming popular in the U.S. due to the digital age and an increasingly interdependent global world. Immersion programs attempt to address this point as well as the widely acknowledged point that elementary children have greater potential to learn a foreign language quicker and better than older students or adults. As a result, immersion programs are widely scattered across the country. However, the access and availability to immersion programs varies greatly. Moreover admission to an immersion program is often restricted based on residence or a school lottery system, for instance, thus further limiting the access and availability to them.
In other words, the Open Source Officer position would possibly remain out of future reach for many American elementary schoolchildren if they are solely dependent on their public school system to acquire knowledge in a foreign language.
Congressional effort to extend foreign language education to elementary and high school students has been mixed. In 2011, Senator Lautenberg proposed to amend the Foreign Language Education Partnership Program Act by providing incentive payments to public elementary schools for foreign language instruction.
Since then, Congress has cut spending for foreign languages in higher education. And the Foreign Language Assistance Program (FLAP), the only source of federal funding for K-12 foreign language programs, is slated to be cut or eliminated. Is Congress jeopardizing a child's future and their chance to strive for a position like the CIA's Open Source Officer?
Open source efforts to extend foreign language education to elementary and high school students could be the solution. Numerous non-profits offer free foreign language opportunities. Numerous MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) offer free foreign language opportunities as well. Increasingly, there is open source software like Ling, too.
With the proliferation of free or open source foreign language courses online, a child who is eager and motivated to learn could potentially avail themselves of the opportunity to learn if they simply had access to computer hardware to view them on. This type of self-directed, self-motivated learning of foreign languages would be perhaps more feasible and obtainable in a public library than a public elementary school where access and availability to computer hardware is often restricted and limited.
Yet learning multiple foreign languages is increasingly becoming easier with digital technology. Hyperpolyglot (a person who can speak six or more languages fluently) sixteen-year-old Timothy Doner has self-taught himself an astonishing 23 foreign languages and partly through the use of digital technology. This is not to say that everyone has the potential to become a hyperpolyglot or can learn a foreign language with ease, but that such self-directed, self-motivated learning for foreign languages is more accessible and available with free and open source than previously.
How long will it be before public schools adopt free and open source tools and a position like an Open Source Officer becomes a greater possibility for future linguists? If a young preschool child can learn basic literacy and numeracy skills from watching Sesame Street as numerous studies and research have shown, then it seems entirely possible that an elementary child could learn a foreign language with free and open source software too.

Ms. Fox,
I think it is important to stress to children and young adults that learning a second language adds another cultural dimension to life, the same way studying the fine arts does. I think it does people a disservice to believe that they will achieve public or private sector employment on the basis of knowing a "critical language". I have a B.A. in Spanish literature (minor Latin American Studies), attended high school in Jerusalem for 3 years (entire curriculum taught in Hebrew). studied both Palestinian and Modern Standard Arabic, can French and Portuguese, and have an MLIS from San Jose State. If I applied to be an OSO I wouldn't get the job. Those sort of jobs would only go to applicants with native or near native fluency in those languages, and have native knowledge of those cultures.
Learning more than one languages is increasing with the bit of time. And this process is no longer difficult. SLA has given us many theory in this regard.

I've been contemplating running a ghetto tubeless set-up on my Pake' for some time and decided to go ahead and try it. I purchased a set of WTB Pathway clinchers (wire bead) and used 26" Stans rim strips. It's been holding up fine, with the exception of a small burp I got yesterday while descending the very rocky Stiles trail at Santa Teresa County Park.
Anyhow, before my ride yesterday, I heard something buzzing in my front tire while spinning. It was like, "zzzzzzz-zzzzzzz-zzzzzzzzzz-zzzzzzzzzz..." and I was thinking WTF? I stopped to see if my brake pad got twisted and was rubbing the tire, but that wasn't the case - so I just continued my ride and had some fun.
This morning I spun the wheel again, and still the same rubbing sound, which appeared to be coming from the inside. Cracking open the bead, I found this alien living in my tire.
I guess my attempt to use "Slime" brand tire sealant was an epic fail. That stuff sucks. Luckily, I had Stans in there to do the job right. I decided to take a picture of the alien next to a 110mm stem so you can see the size of it. Weird!

A Prineville man was arrested Friday afternoon, accused of firing his rifle toward a car with two women inside during a dispute at his home. They thought it struck the car, Crook County sheriff's deputies said, but it actually hit the ground in front of the car, spraying it with gravel.
Deputies were dispatched around 1:50 p.m. on a menacing report at 6247 SE Mark Road, about five miles southeast of Prineville, said sheriff's Sgt. Travis Jurgens.
While heading to the house, deputies were told that Rease Endicott, 70, had pointed a gun at the woman who called and fired a single round, reportedly hitting her car.
Two 38-year-old Prineville women in the car called 911 as they fled and met deputies elsewhere to tell them what happened.
Deputies went to the home and interviewed Endicott, he said. They determined the driver of the car had driven the other woman to the home, resulting in a dispute over the passenger being on the property.
Jurgens said Endicott then went inside, grabbed a rifle, came out and pointed it toward the women's car, firing a single round that struck the ground and sprayed the car with gravel. Nobody was hurt, he added.
Endicott was taken into custody without incident and booked into the county jail on charges of menacing with a firearm and reckless endangering, Jurgens said. But he was later released after posting 10 percent of his $10,000 bail.

Office names
month's employee
Roger Troutman, transportation construction inspector, has been named the state Department of Transportation district office Employee of the Month for January 2014.
Troutman, a news release said, is "a perfect example of an outstanding employee. While he has only been with the transportation department for a bit over two years, he's been assigned to a wide range of projects."
At the end of his first season, he was assigned to flood projects and carried out his duties with little supervision. After the flood projects were completed, Troutman spent the winter in Berwick inspecting utility work. The Berwick project, the news release said, had many challenges with multiple contracts and contractors working within the borough at the same time.
For much of the past year, he was on another challenging project; this one involving the reconstruction of Route 45 through downtown Mifflinburg. The plans called for a lot of work to be done outside of the department's right-of-way.
Last summer, Troutman was honored as a member of the Group of the Quarter for the Route 11 project inspection team in Berwick, and was recently promoted to a TCI.
Troutman, a 2-year PennDOT employee, lives in Middleburg with his wife Chasity and their daughter Elisa.
