BROOKLYN – The boys on the Jackson Lumen Christi cross country team knew it had what it took to be the best.
But it wasn't until the night before the MHSAA Division 3 state meet that the Titans started believing it.
And thanks to that mentality, Lumen Christi won its first Division 3 state championship since 1979 with a score of 129. It was good enough to outlast runner-up Marlette's 137.
"The guys just had it in their brains, and they talked about it last night that they needed to start believing in themselves," Lumen Christi coach Dave Miller said. "I thought maybe third…when I found out that we had won, I was in shock."
Finishing in third place was Grandville Calvin Christian with 147 points, Benzie Central finished fourth with 187 while Freeland came in fifth with 196.
The Titans were led by the strong running of junior Karl Berkemeier and senior Charlie Ludlow who placed 19th and 20th, respectively. Berkemeier finished in 16 minutes, 16.4 seconds while Ludlow was directly behind him at 16:17.7.
"It's surreal and I can't even believe it," Ludlow said. "I'm just on cloud nine and this is the best day of my life."
Ryan Gibson (16:24.1) finished 28th for Lumen Christi while Patrick Solstis (16:50.7) came in 48th place. Canyon Raburn (17:10.4) rounded off the top 5 for Lumen Christi in 83rd place.
"Everyone wanted to go out there and do their best and go out there and go get it," Berkemeier said. "It's going to take a while to come to grip that we actually did this."
Hanover-Horton's Bryce Stroede's stellar cross country career culminated in a second-place finish in final race. Stroede came in at 15:22.4, marking his career-best time and best finish in the Division 3 state meet.
The Comets finished in 18th place with a score of 445.
"I'm really happy, it's my personal best, so it's a really good day," Stroede said. "The boys' team is a good family, Mr. Blackledge gives great wisdom and I think this helped get me ready for the future."
Stroede finished just behind Erie-Mason's Nick Raymond, who came in first at 15:05.1.
Raymond hadn't been beaten this season and said Stroede was his biggest challenge.
"I've never really had any competition this season until today, which I liked," Raymond said. "It was great and we both got really good times, so I was happy with it."
Stockbridge managed a ninth-place finish, led by senior front-runner Alec Armstrong. Armstrong finished 24th overall in a time of 16:20.1. Teammate Nathaniel Baird (17:02.3) finished 64th while Evan Upshur (17:09.8) came in 82nd. Kaleb Losey (17:26.1) rounded off the top five for Stockbridge in 115th.
Napoleon came in 17th place as a team with a score of 393 behind junior front runner Kyle Allen. Allen (16:58.0) finished the race in 55th place.
Individually placing in the top 50 out of the Jackson-area was Hillsdale's Zach Hardaway (16:16.1) in 17th, Michigan Center's Ben Utz (16:19.7) in 23rd while Manchester's Matt Kemner (16:45.4) finished in 40th.

What materials did you use? Lanora is my first completed cloth art doll. She is made from various fabrics, yarns and embellishments I picked out to complement her purpose - that of being a witch. She was a hoot to make and took a long time to complete since I was learning as I was creating.
What are you most proud of? Making a cloth art doll is indeed a journey. I learned early on that the creative process depends a great deal on inspiration. I am glad I took my time and let "Lenora" tell me what she wanted to look like. I found a quote by Andre Gide that sums things up: "Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better."
What advice would you give someone starting this project? I found that looking at what other cloth art doll artists have done has given me the courage to learn the basics of doll making. Go to BING or GOOGLE and type in cloth art dolls. Then click on images. You will be amazed at all the wonderful art dolls that have been created.

Students in the Hart district continued to outperform their peers in Los Angeles County and statewide in standardized tests measuring proficiency in math, science, history and language arts, according to state Department of Education figures released Thursday.
"We take it very seriously," said David LeBarron, director of curriculum and assessment for the William S. Hart Union High School District. "Our students' performance on the state assessments is a measure we use to evaluate our instructional programs."
The scores were determined by the performance of students on last spring's Standardized Testing and Reporting, or STAR, assessments, which are taken by all California students in grades 2 through 11.
Those tests measure student performance on state standards in history, language arts, math and science that the California Department of Education expects students to grasp at each grade level.
The STAR results will be used to calculate the Hart district's Academic Performance Index — a figure that is used to measure academic performance in K-12 schools statewide and identify which schools need improvement in certain areas.
STAR scores are divided into five levels — far below basic, below basic, basic, proficient and advanced — with the goal to increase the percentage of students who score proficient or above.
In the English-language arts area, Hart district high schools either maintained or increased the percentage of students scoring above proficient over last year's results, according to state figures.
The number of students in seventh and eighth grade scoring proficient or above decreased slightly from last year in the English-language arts area, according to state figures.
Students in the Hart district largely outpaced their peers in Los Angeles County and statewide on all areas of the STAR assessments, including in science, where students performed better on tests taken in biology, chemistry, Earth science and physics, according to LeBarron.
The Hart district also had small increases to the percentage of students testing as proficient or above in the history assessment areas, including United States history and eighth-grade social science.
"Hart district students do very well on the STAR tests because we place a strong focus on ensuring that our students are taught the state's academic content standards, which is what the tests assess," LeBarron said.
And well educated students have a positive impact on the community at large, according to Santa Clarita City Manager Ken Striplin.
"This coupled with a strong local government, great teachers and administrators, and local business advocacy for education helps create an effective and nurturing learning environment," Striplin said Thursday. "As a result, student test scores are among the best in the state."

Don't Tone It Down, Amp It Up: In Praise of Incivility in Politics
"The wranglers over creeds and dogmas are perhaps the most persistent of all agitators; the bedrock idea being that a wrong exists which must be found and exterminated."
-- Eugene Debs
"Get it straight, I'm not a humanitarian, I'm a hell-raiser."
--Mother Jones
I'm going to take issue here with the mainstream media commentariat (and even some on the left) about the issue of "civil discourse."
There are two main arguments being made, and both are wrong.
One is that our politic process is being damaged by violent and intemperate rhetoric, and the other is that this violence is coming from both the right and the left.
On the first point, there is a big difference between violent rhetoric and intemperate rhetoric. Violent rhetoric is where a speaker actually tries to incite her or his listeners to violent action. Intemperate rhetoric is simply rhetoric that is not temperate, as in polite, respectful, calm. That is, it is angry, it perhaps heaps scorn on some other party, it condemns the actions and motives of an opponent, and it seeks to rile up its intended audience.
There are times, I would agree, when violent rhetoric can be akin to the proverbial shout of "Fire!" in a crowded theater, and such speech--the kind of speech that used to be used to rouse a crowd to become a lynch mob--should rightly be viewed as a criminal act. But riling up a crowd to kill somebody is different from riling up a crowd to, say, damage construction equipment that is about to destroy a poor neighborhood to make way for a casino development, riling up a crowd of workers to break into a plant and engage in a sit-down strike to prevent the shipping of the machinery overseas, or riling up a crowd to resist a forcible eviction in a foreclosure.
There is a big difference between shouting "Kill the Nigger!" as listeners did during some Sarah Palin campaign events in 2008, while she said nothing to dissuade the racist crowd, on the one hand, and, on the other, declaring as I and others have done that those who would cut Medicare and Medicaid funding are condemning thousands of people to death, or writing, as I have also done, that President Obama, like President Bush before him, is a war criminal for ordering the indiscriminate use of drone missile attacks on Afghan and Pakistani housing compounds known to be filled with families, or for refusing to punish those who ordered torture, and that the punishment for such crimes can include execution.
In the first instance, a public figure, Sarah Palin, is through her silence, encouraging actual calls for the assassination of a presidential candidate. In the latter instance, facts are simply being stated. No one is being targeted for violent action.
To say that we should have civility in our discourse is a code word in the media and in political debate, for saying that we should not be exposing our leaders as criminals, or calling for their removal from office. Civility is really the death of politics, which thrives on passion and withers with civility.

A Knitter's Home Companion: A Heartwarming Collection of Stories, Patterns, and Recipes
By Michelle Edwards
Photographs by Jen Gotch
Gifted by Abrams Books
Book Review by Bridget Hardy, FaveCrafts.com Editor
Take a trip through the pleasant life of Michelle Edwards and read her book, A Knitter's Home Companion. Edwards has graciously shared her favorite knit projects and recipes for us to enjoy. This book does not include step by step instructions how to knit. Instead, Edwards in sharing with us what the joys and purpose of knitting are in her life.
It becomes clear from the writing style: Edwards has a personal relationship with knitting. She was taught to knit as a spacey child, a "nudnik," who needed to calm down. Now, she depends on knitting to pass her time, make her feel at home and restful, and to supply her family with knitted necessities. My favorite pattern of Edwards is her Chicken Egg Warmers design. The egg warmers are just adorable and something I would never imagine crafting myself. My kitchen is yellow and red, spotted with chickens and egg references, so Edward's Chicken Egg Warmers are the perfect homemade décor!
I also love Edward's fast projects, such as Quick and Easy First Socks and Quick and Easy Mittens. They are simple yet classy, and easy for me to follow. Seasoned knitters will respect Edward's thoughtful patterns, such as Updated Ripple Afghan design. The story behind her patterns make them that much more amazing.
And, after knitting, you won't feel stressed about dinner thanks to recipes in Edward's book! Trust me: this all-in-one knitting story and help book is everything you will ever want to have next to you while knitting.

THE PROBLEM of diagnosis has been a difficult one in child psychiatry for many years, or, in fact, throughout the history of child psychiatry. It is the purpose of this paper to show thata clinical appraisal of a child is not as unreliable as one would Surmise when the issue is judged only from the point of view of diagnosis. In other words, the authors contend that two child psychiatrists looking at the same child will describe him under very different diagnostic labels, but will arrive at judgment of the presence or absence and the severity of illness in some sort of uniform way. Further, it is contended that despite training in different centers and in different parts of the country, similarity of thought exists. If such similarity of thought exists, on what is it based.? What do we look at as we evaluate a child.? We

Album Review
It somehow is fitting that
Fork in the Road
arrived in stores a week after President Barack Obama announced his bail-out plan for the American automobile industry: it's
Neil Young
's one-man campaign to remind everybody what cars used to mean and what they should be again.
always has had a soft spot for cars -- he drove a hearse from Toronto to Los Angeles, immortalizing the vehicle in "Long May You Run" -- so this album-length motor manifesto couldn't be called unexpected, nor could its palpable, ever-flowing undercurrent of nostalgia be a surprise for a man who owns a toy train company. Plus, romanticizing the classic years of Detroit is natural; those big boats were gorgeous, so unlike the colorless, characterless sedans that rule the road these days.
knows this and knows that dependence on oil is crippling the culture, not to mention the environment, and is enough of an evangelist to cobble together his own green machine, putting an electric engine in a 1959 Lincoln Continental, driving the car to Washington and writing a whole album about the vehicle and its downtrodden times. Fittingly,
Fork in the Road
is like his Lincvolt: it has a new engine in an old body, so it has all of the classic contours but runs a little differently. The Lincvolt might be smooth and efficient, but
Fork in the Road
is charmingly clunky, a side effect of its quick creation and
's hard-headedness.
might be writing records as quickly as a blogger these days but musically he's stuck in the past, never letting go of his chunky Les Paul and candied folk harmonies, embracing his status as an old crank so enthusiastically he happily presents himself as a crazy old coot on the album's cover. At times, he certainly
sound like the resident codger, snarling about the fading economy and how everybody's been downsized, good naturedly sneering "big rock star/my sales have tanked/I still got you/thanks" on the title track. Despite the undercurrent of auto nostalgia here,
isn't living in the past and he's keenly aware of the present. This blend of dreamy thoughts of yesteryear, spitting fury over the present, and planning for the future gives
Fork in the Road
a bit of a kick that propels it through a few songs that aren't much more than a garage groove, but the whole thing benefits from its messiness; the loose ends make it feel alive. [A CD/DVD version was also released.]

The Bloom Box – I Really Want To Believe
The Bloom Box – I Really Want To Believe
Courtesy of Joshua M Brown, The Reformed Broker
Here is what everyone is should be talking about right now. I have next to zero knowledge about fuel cells, but I really want to believe in this. If the claims that Bloom Energy, the inventor and John Doerr are making turn out to be true, then we may just be able to fix this world after all.
The applications range from eliminating our need for terror-sponsoring oil imports to a drastically lower pollution picture – not to mention the millions of jobs that could be created.

Middle Class Boom Fuels Global Energy Surge
Catherine Wolfram, Bloomberg View
A gentleman with a thick Georgia drawl once told me that he could explain the erosion of communism in China with two words: "AY-ur conditioning." The citizens of the People's Republic, he said, looked at their compatriots in Hong Kong and decided that their lives would be much improved if they, too, could afford such modern conveniences. . .

I would buy it for sure. It has great originality, and games. Rep me if i help you by clicking the green mushroom. Spiderman 3 is up to you.
Hi guys,i'm new here,and i need you'r opinion.My birthday is coming up,and i really want a Wii.Do you think i should buy it? Does the Wii graphics suck?
And what about Spiderman 3,is it really that bad?!
Sorry for all the questions!
Please reply...THANKS in advance!
I would buy it for sure. It has great originality, and games. Rep me if i help you by clicking the green mushroom. Spiderman 3 is up to you.
Wii games that I own: Zelda, The godfather, Wii sports, Resident Evil 4.
Next up: Metroid Prime 3 Corruption
Welcome to wiichat and enjoy your stay.
Naturally, on a Wii forum, people will surely tell you to get a Wii.
But yeah, the console is great fun. And regarding Spider-man for the Wii, there have been good and bad reviews on it, so its really up to you to search and then decide for yourself. Goodluck.

Well this is a Wii forum so everyone is going to say to get one. Yes the graphics do suck, if you want good graphics and you have a HDTV then get a PS3 or a 360. I'm not sure about Spiderman though since I have yet to play it.
The graphics are not THAT bad. Sure, your not going to have a game on wii that looks like its a 360 game but I think there okay graphics. They are a step up from gamecube. Plus, the gameplay makes you forget about the graphics. I suggest you buy one but only if you can find it, they are like finding a needle in a haystack.
Welcome! and yes i think you should buy it. and NO wii graphics arent crap.
See you around and good luck!
Do you think I should buy it?: Yes, it is very smple, esay to learn and very creative. there are also many good games being released in the near future.Originally Posted by chain-z
Does the Wii's Graphics suck?: to some point, but they are generally OK. Everything looks good. It's not so bad that you will notice anything.
How's Spider-Man 3?: Graphics have gotton horrible reviews, landmarks are repetitive and the fighting is dull.
That should answer your questions.

Yes you should get the wii, it owns! perfect timing who knows what the summer will bring. Spiderman-3 was pretty good to me. i think it was over hyped and people expected to much. It was really good, i love it. Great game IMO. Anyways i HIGHLY suggest youget the wii you will NOT be dispointed.
I'd say get the Wii.
Id say no, the games are really bad at the moment, the graphics, lol whoever said they are a step-up from the Gamecube is blind, if anything it's a major step down from the games ive saw. I feel stupid for getting the Wii, and am considering selling for a ps3, £500 for all i have sounds great, I really need half-decent graphics to enjoy a game, and the controls can be annoying, especially when your playing a Fps, and the controller does not respond or aim correctly for minutes at a time, this happens too frequent for my liking in Cod:3 and Red Steel. The remotes are good but do not make up for the lack of power the wii has, and they also still have some problems on the remotes they got to fix.
Just got my Ps3! The Wii is now gathering dust until Super Smash Brawl!

Maui High's Yamanuha retiring
May 23, 2012 - Robert Collias
The MIL and Maui DOE lost one of the really good guys today when longtime Maui High principal Randy Yamanuha told his staff that he is retiring, one of those teachers told me minutes ago.
Yamanuha has been president of the MIL executive committee that has final say on all rules changes and violations — it was under his watch that the MIL became the first league to adopt the size of school rule for Divisions I and II and the transfer rule that forced a year on the sidelines for any previously played sport by the transfer student for all schools. Remember, the MIL has public and private schools in it, so keeping all parties happy is rough. The state adopted the rule and then promptly watered it down to favor public schools.
Yamanuha also did not accept any district exemptions for students to cross lines to play at other schools — the only principal in the league to stand by that conviction, much to the detriment of his football team.
He also had the same kind of convictions when it came to hiring staff members and because of that he ended up with a class act in Mike Ban as Athletic Director — due to circumstances, Ban is the fifth person to hold that position in a five-year span. Ban, however, will be there for a long time because he is the right man for the job.
There is a lot more to this that the paper will cover, but you read this big news here first.
Full disclosure, both of my kids attended Maui High and so I know it is a first-rate public high school, in very large part to Randy Yamanuha. I will miss "Mr. Y."

Fort Meigs - Perrysburg
On May 1, 1813, 1,200 British allied forces, under General Henry Proctor and Tecumseh, opened a bombardment of Fort Meigs and laid siege. Reinforcements reached the fort on May 4, increasing its militia to 2,800. Early on the morning of May 5, a detachment from Clay's brigade under Colonel William Dudley landed from boats on the north bank of the river, stormed the British batteries on the north bank, and spiked the guns. Coming under fire from Indians in the woods, part of the Kentuckian force pursued Tecumseh's men, who led them deeper into the forest. In the woods, the disorganized Kentuckians suffered heavy casualties in confused fighting. Nearly 550 were captured, and of Dudley's 866 officers and men, only 150 returned to the fort. This became known as "Dudley's Massacre" or "Dudley's Defeat".
The Shawnee and other warriors attacked wood-gathering parties sent out from the fort. Harrison held out against the British by using a pair of 14-foot high embankments thrown up inside the walls along the length of the interior to absorb the incoming British shells. Proctor abandoned the siege on May 9, 1813 and retreated to Detroit.
Having mobilized the garrison into an army, Harrison left General Green Clay in command of the fort, much reduced in size from its original layout. In July 1813, the British attempted to appease their allies by again besieging Fort Meigs. The Indians staged a mock battle to lure the garrison out. The Americans, however, saw through the ploy. After the failed siege attempt, the British moved on to Fort Stephenson, where Fremont, Ohio stands today. That attack also failed, causing heavy British losses and forcing their retreat to Canada.

We hope to live, work, and raise our family in China. In 2006 we finished up M.A.s in Intercultural Studies while teaching English in Taiwan. Then after draining our bank account studying Chinese for two years in Tianjin, we got jobs and made some babies. As of Fall 2012 we live in Qingdao, where Joel works as a preschool rockstar. And we've been blogging the whole thing.
China Hope Live
This coping mechanism masquerading as a digital scrapbook gives you a window into our experiences as a Canadian/American
couplefamily trying to live into and love — and some days just survive — China. It shows us discovering and slowly learning to understand Chinese people, culture and society on personal level.

Sorry, fleaflicker
FleaMod Admin 4 years ago
Yes, we support automated drafts for users that can't attend the live drafts, but at least one user must be there to start the draft room and open it up (this can be done when the draft room opens, but the window must be kept open). To trigger the draft, at least one member must have the draft room open to at least start it -- then they can close it once the first pick is made.

Thank you

Can I autodraft for the while league without consent from owners
FleaMod Admin 3 years ago
Technically, yes. But you must pause the pick before the 5 seconds is up on that owner or else it will pick for the team (you have to undo the pick if this happens and you only have 60 minutes of cumulative pause time).
tonysynots 3 years ago
I'm looking to have the computer pick for every team and not from there Que
is that possible
FleaMod Admin 3 years ago
They would have to go into the league and hit Default Rankings and it would get rid of their custom rankings. Then you can open the live draft room and just let it run. If you send our support e-mail, as commissioner of the league, while logged into the site, linking the league, we possibly can change the default rankings for each player before you want to draft.

Blue Moon, Ahmad Jamal, piano. One critical slice of wisdom in the music world has always been this: "Find your own voice." It may be said with certainty that Ahmad Jamal did just that over five decades ago, and he continues that practice to this day. Now past the 80 year milestone, Jamal still is a master of the use of space. He also has a unique way of making certain phrases fade into the stratosphere, and he sometimes uses repetition unlike any other player. All in all, when it's Jamal, you simply know it. As much as any pianist in jazz history, he "grabs you by the ears" and requires you to listen. On this very welcome and wonderful recording, he is joined by Reginald Veal, bass, Herlin Riley, drums, and on some selections, Manolo Badrena, percussion. All the "Jamal-isms" are intact. Just check out "Invitation," and you'll be carried back to his trios on Argo and Chess Records. Other standouts include the title tune, "Gypsy," a stunning rendition of "Laura" and a salute to the bop era with Dizzy's "Woody'n You." For me, the surprise of the set was a tune from the musical "Oliver," made a winner bySammy Davis, "This Is the Life." These and others remind us, without doubt, that what Ahmad Jamal had to say back in 1958 still rings with vitality and freshness a half century later.
Jazz Village, 2012, 78:06.
Double Exposure, Frank D'Rone, vocals. Quite long ago, when good music and popular music were one and the same, there was a very hip singer-guitarist named Frank D'Rone. He made several standout LPs for Mercury; one or two for Cadet; and then rock and roll had its way. Through many lean years, D'Rone, along with many other quality singers, stuck to his guns and continued singing worthwhile material. But recording opportunities were few and far between. So how delighted was I to see this new CD! And as I would have guessed, he's still insistent on singing the evergreens, including "When The Sun Comes Out," "Make Someone Happy," "Pick Yourself Up," "The Very Thought Of You," "Oh You Crazy Moon" and lots more. From a later era, and an album highlight, is the lilting melody, "Pure Imagination." The CD's title is a reference to the instrumentation for the project. On half the songs, D'Rone is accompanied by a (mostly) Seattle area big band arranged and conducted with aplomb by Phil Kelly. The remaining tunes feature D'Rone accompanying himself on guitar. We who remember D'Rone from years back are reminded that if had never sung a note, he's a superb jazz guitarist. But, lucky for us, he sang then, and he's still singing now. And how!
Whaling City Sound, 2012, 47:56.
Here's To The Messengers, Clayton Cameron, drums. It seems that I first heard Cameron on one magical night at Portland's Keller Auditorium, when he was not yet out of his teens and already Tony Bennett's drummer. Obviously, he's up to other musical pursuits now, and his "jass explosion" offers an energetic musical picture of the great Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. A couple of Cameron's colleagues are veterans of the jazz wars: Billy Childs on piano, Darek Oles on bass, and Bob Sheppard on tenor sax. The remainder of the group, I suspect, are the kind of young cats that Blakey groomed into stardom. The tunes are a mix of Cameron's original compositions, a few choices from Blakey "grads," and one Americana standard in "Autumn Leaves." The opener, for instance, is Curtis Fuller's "A La Mode," a riveting, post-bop classic that paves the way for the tunes yet to come. The late pianist, James Williams, another Blakey alum, gave us "What Do You Say, Dr. J," a typical Blakey choice with more than a hint of gospel. And then there's Bobby Timmons's "So Tired," another familiar melody line which cooks vigorously. "We For Blakey" is Cameron's shuffle rhythm tribute to the master, and Bobby Watson's "ETA" is yet another high-octane choice. On all these and others, Cameron and crew, young and not quite so young, provide a ripping, stirring performance. Blakey would have loved it!

Prisoner Of Love, Marianne Solivan, vocals. In this era of self-produced CDs at relatively reasonable cost, there's a multitude of "wannabe" female jazz singers. Now and then an impressive one arrives in my mailbox for review. And this month, it's Solivan. She's the kind of singer who delivers a lyric without pretense. No show biz, no glitz, no frosting on the cake. It's a tough assignment unless you have the jazz chops. On this debut recording, she has all the tools, and it certainly doesn't hurt to have some stellar New York cats in your corner, including Xavier Davis and Michael Kanan splitting duty at the piano, Christian McBride and Ben Wolfe on bass, and trumpet ace Jeremy Pelt and guitar star Peter Bernstein as guest artists. Solivan mixes it up nicely on a program of well-chosen songs rarely done by others. For instance, there's "Moon Ray," "I Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry," "Day Dream," and two tunes which elicit memories of Betty Carter -- "I Can't Help It" and "Social Call." Perhaps my two faves were "May I Come In" and "After You," both obscure but well written. Solivan definitely makes a splash as a singer from whom we need to hear more.
Hipnotic Records, 2012, 45:50.
Bass 10, Mark Simon, piano. After leaving his native Chicago to experience the excellent music department at Mt. Hood Community College, Mark Simon decided Portland was the right place for him, musically and otherwise. That was in the 1980s, and Simon has established himself as a solid performer in the Rose City ever since. For this new CD, he chose a concept that I don't recall ever having seen: an entire menu of songs played as duos with, count 'em, ten of Portland's all-star bassists. Since there are 12 tunes, two of the bass players get two tunes, and eight others are heard on one each. Hence the title. More importantly, it's a very happening, recital-like performance, as one experiences Simon oh-so-comfortably interpreting standards and jazz classics with ten like-minded pals. The tunes range from oldies such as "Avalon" and "If I Had You" to jazz choices such as "Four Brothers," "A Child Is Born" and "Sonora," a lesser known gem from one of Simon's piano gods, Hampton Hawes. In addition, there's "Alone Together", "Dindi," "Stella By Starlight" and a Cy Coleman rarity called "Why Try to Change Me Now." These and others result in a nicely conceived and beautifully performed CD. Mark is currently battling liver failure, and his many friends wish him blessings as he courageously waits for the phone call which would provide a liver transplant. Despite his medical needs, Simon has provided a wonderful, new CD to savor.
Saphu Records, 2012, 61:49.
Girl Talk, Kate McGary, vocals. Here's a singer who sounds like she really wants to carve out a career in jazz. But it seems there remain some evidence of a pop orientation, perhaps at an earlier time. And so a tune such as "I Just Found Out about Love" works well, but "We Kiss in a Shadow" is approached with unnecessary fluff. "The Man I Love" starts out pretty straight ahead, but dies when it journeys, with too much guitar "fill," into the clouds. "O Cantador" is a lovely Brazilian "hit," and Kurt Elling joins McGary in a delicate interpretation. McGary once again puts it all together with a fresh take on "This Heart of Mine" and "I Know that You Know" is rendered rapid fire with just the right amount of scat. A stirring Jimmy Rowles tune, "Looking Back," is a great choice, but with solo guitar accompaniment, it lacks the power it had when sung by the late Stacy Rowles. "Charade" is another well-written tune. The guitar-organ backing may be hip in 2012, but it doesn't fit what Mr. Mancini had in mind. A bright and breezy "It's a Wonderful World" ends the session. McGary is way too sophisticated to appeal to a young audience. But from a jazz standpoint, she needs to reel in the "cutesy" stuff and let her talent do the work.
Palmetto, 2012, 44:28.
Motor City Scene, Paul Chambers, bass, Tommy Flanagan, piano. Let's see if I can explain this clearly. Back in 1959 and 1960, two labels, United Artists and Bethlehem, released LPs under the same title, "Motor City Scene." The premise was simply that all the players on both albums were products of an active Detroit jazz scene. Those original LPs were under the leader's names: Thad Jones on one and Donald Byrd on the other. Paul Chambers and Tommy Flanagan appeared on both, and so this reissue, two LPs on one CD, is in their names. The United Artists "Motor City Scene" features four Thad Jones originals of somewhat extended length and includes Al Grey, trombone, Billy Mitchell, tenor sax, and Elvin Jones, drums. The Bethlehem session adds an additional five tunes. Four of these are also originals, mostly by the participants in the session with one exception, Hoagy Carmichael's "Stardust." The additional players on this session included Pepper Adams, baritone sax, Kenny Burrell, guitar, and Louis Hayes, drums. The music, casual and creative, amounts primarily to a couple of invigorating small group blowing sessions. They features one superlative solo after another; not surprising in that these were some of the premier players of their day. Being a "piano guy," I direct your attention particularly to Flanagan. Quietly and elegantly, he was a true giant of jazz piano.
Phoenix Records, 2011, 75:03.
Taurey Butler, piano. As a youngster, Butler started playing trumpet. Then one day, his band teacher gave him an Oscar Peterson record. So long, trumpet. Butler eventually graduated from Dartmouth with degrees in electrical engineering and Japanese! Those pursuits are honorable indeed, but the world can be thankful that the piano won out. After gaining some experience in far-flung places, Butler, a native of New Jersey, decided to check out Oscar's hometown, Montreal. And now he calls it home. His swinging trio examines a near perfect balance of standards and some originals with real melody lines! The session opens with something of a surprise, "Sunrise Sunset," from "Fiddler On The Roof," and continues with a rousing "The Lady Is A Tramp." Other evergreens in the program include "Moonlight in Vermont," "Please Send Me Someone to Love," "Emily" and "The Preacher." Among Butler's compositions, two standouts included the high-flying "Grandpa Ted's Tune" and the downright scary tempo of another ripper, "From the Other Side." The Peterson influence is definitely there, but Butler has fashioned it to his own concept, and he's going to begin turning heads with this outstanding debut recording.
Justin Time, 2012, 55:24.
Midnight Sun, Leslie Lewis, vocals. If you remember the hip and husky sound of singers like Chris Connor and June Christy, you're quite likely to dig what's happening with Lewis. As she did on her earlier recordings, she brings the "under the radar" but swinging Los Angeles pianist Gerard Hagen and his trio to the studio. They're all joined by a couple of guests who add sugar and spice to the proceedings. Chuck Manning's tenor and Joey Sellers' trombone are heard generously, and most definitely add some musical muscle to the session. Lewis opts, mostly, for standard tunes. Winners include "Love Me or Leave Me," "It's Alright with Me," "Lover Come Back to Me," "The Man I Love" and "Where Or When." Equally well sung, but not among my personal faves, are two pop tunes: the Beatles opus, "My Love," and Burt Bacharach's fluffy hit, "A House Is Not a Home." Lewis's smoky voice delivers the lyrics with the skill, phrasing and feeling of a dedicated jazz singer. And that's just what she is!
Surf Cove Jazz, 2012, 50:09.
Celebrando, Hendrik Meurkens, harmonica and Gabriel Espinosa, bass. If you're a fan of Brazilian music, this recording should reach out to you nicely. Meurkens is most likely the only jazz harmonica cat to surface since Toots Thielemans, and like his elder colleague, he's a master jazz musician. A collection of 11 stylish Brazilian tunes features Meurkens in some heady company. Co-leader of the session is the Mexican-born bassist, Gabriel Espinosa. Perhaps the most prominent guest is clarinetist Anat Cohen. Her silky sound adds an element of sheer beauty to the recording. Other instrumentation and "here and there" voices weave their way through the session, adding a touch of solemnity one moment and joy the next. A few standout tunes include the fresh, life-affirming melody line of "Frenzelosa (Choro No. 2)," the wordless, fresh vocal on "She Lives in Brazi,l; the attractive, airy melody line on "Mountain Drive," and the set closer, "Celebrando." It seems that Meaurkens' recording activity over the last few years has taken a turn toward these lyrical adventures combining jazz with the attractive music of places south of the border.
Zoho, 2012, 54:13.
Peach, Karen Johns, vocals. If you sometimes lean in the direction of swing era vocals, this CD just might be lotsa fun. Johns has even gone so far as to overdub her voice here and there, creating a sound reminiscent of the Andrews Sisters, or the Maguire Sisters, or your mom and her three choir mates when they sang in their high school musical extravaganza! Johns is a stylist, not a jazz singer per se; certainly not Ella or Carmen or Anita. But there's a lot of fun here, and if I had the chance to meet her, I'd bet the mortgage she'd concur that a "fun disc" was her goal. Many of the tunes are Johns' original melodies and lyrics, and ----something quite rare these days -- they actually sound like real songs. You know …. melody line - bridge - back to melody line. In the midst of her own creations, she tosses in a few familiar items. How about Henry Mancini's "It Had Better Be Tonight"? Or tap your toe to "Chattanooga Choo Choo." Finally, there's a re-working of a pop thing Nancy Wilson did a long time ago called "How Glad I Am," and perhaps some of you remember it. Anyway, all this fun and frivolity takes place with a very polite and hip small group of accompanists. A day brightener, that's what this is!
Self-Produced, 2011; 44:40.
Presenting Oscar Moore, guitar. Here, most likely, is the mystery disc of 2011. Those of you who admired Nat Cole's early trios will remember his excellent guitarist, Oscar Moore. This CD, reissued on the San Diego label VSOP, was recorded in 1957 but never released on vinyl, only as a reel to reel tape on the Omega label. Liner notes are nonexistent. They would have helped explain why Moore apparently chose to overdub the nine selections here. It would seem that this may have been one of the very early attempts at overdubbing. From that standpoint alone, it's quite an interesting recording. If it's not Moore at his best, it certainly provides some pleasant listening. Accompanying the guitarist in a duo setting is bassist Leroy Vinnegar, much beloved here during his Portland years (1986-1999). Anyway, the two work seamlessly on a selection of standards that includes "I Can't Get Started," "There's a Small Hotel," "Angel Eyes," "It's A Pity to Say Goodnight," "Tangerine" "Sweet Lorraine" and more. It is, for sure, rather an "oddball" recording, and less than 30 minutes in length. But it is a long lost document from a much admired guitarist, and that's got to be worth something.
Secret Love, Sara Leib, vocals. Great songs which have stood the test of time don't need to be, as the orange juice people like to say, messed around with. Leib has a nice enough voice. Sounds to me like a singer probably raised on pop and rock who's trying to spread her wings. And you can't fault her choice of "It Might as Well Be Spring," "The Thrill Is Gone," "Secret Love," "Willow Weep for Me" and other gems. But the attempt by Leib and her accompanists to transport these superb songs melodically and sometimes rhythmically, detracts from their very essence as great material.
Bright Morning, Johnny Padilla, saxophones. This CD landed in my lap without a bio sheet and with zero liner notes. Only a list of personnel and the notation that all the music was written by Padilla. I don't know if he resides in Spokane, St. Louis or Sarasota. I liked his energy, tone and, for the most part, a straight ahead attitude. His guitarist had juicy chops on nearly every cut. His pianist swung with authority. His bassist and drummer had things well in hand. So, I ask, just who is Johnny Padilla, and when can I hear him play something like "Whisper Not," "Up Jumped Spring" or "Come Rain or Come Shine"?
BP Productions, 2011, 69:08.
Just Sayin', Alan Rosenthal, piano. A multi-faceted musician who has distinguished himself in both the classical and jazz spheres, native New Yorker Rosenfeld has "played everywhere" in The Apple, and in recent years, has worked extensively as an accompanist for a variety of singers. On this session, he returns to his first love, the piano trio. With Cameron Brown, bass, and Steve Johns, drums, Rosenfeld interprets a menu of accessible original music -- with one exception: "Red Red Robin" (of all things!) gets a fresh and feisty new sound. Apart from that, Rosenfeld's trio comfortably finds all the twists and turns, shades and tempos.
Self-Produced, 2011, 50:30.
Girl Talk, Kate McGarry. McGarry is one of the few voices that can both stun and lull at the same time. Her vocal quality is pure and straightforward, with a sweetness that fills the ears. Here, the Grammy-nominated singer pays tribute to her role models, visionary women such as Carmen McRae and Betty Carter. The disc has the soul of those artists, but it is completely modern in approach. The title track is a organ-led bluesy wonder, while the opener, "We Kiss in a Shadow," is a breezy take on the Rodgers and Hammerstein original. With Keith Ganz on guitars and Gary Versace on piano and organ, the chords are full but not overwhelming, and all the textures work well, especially backed by bassist Reuben Rogers and drummer Clarence Penn. Kurt Elling lends his signature vocals on the Brazilian beauty, "O Cantador," an airy wonder; but it's McGarry's quirky, slinky version of "Charade" that really shows why she's one of the most unique vocalists of the current generation.
2012, Palmetto Records. Playing Time: 44 minutes.
Dark Lady of the Sonnets, Wadada Leo Smith's Mbira. Trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith is one of the more unconventional voices in jazz, but also one of it's most diverse. He composes without thought of structure or rhythm, yet as things come together, there is cohesion, as with this intriguing trio. With Min Xiao-Fen on pipa (a Chinese stringed instrument) and voice, and Pheeroan akLaff on drums, the group exhibits a sparse musicianship that utilizes spaces and atonal punches in a mash-up of cultures. The eastern tonalities of the pipa, along with jazz-like drumming and avant-garde trumpeting is something I have not heard before, and the blend is strangely engaging. From the African and Asian influences, to the cohesiveness and communication between all three players, this is global free jazz at its finest.
2011, TUM Records. Playing Time: 56 minutes.
Tales of the Unusual, Lorraine Feather. Feather's title lives up to the name. Her quirky vocal style fits expertly with her self-penned lyrics, which are poetic and let her lilt lift the music -- played, arranged and written by L.A. area pros, including Eddie Arkin, Russell Ferrante, Shelly Berg and Michael Valerio, among others. Their work allows Feather's buoyant vocals to shine through, and her stories to be the highlight. A good example is the slinky-bluesy "Off-the-Grid Girl," inspired by the off-the-grid islands in the San Juans. Some are inspired by movies ("The Usual Suspects") or television ("Where is Everybody," from the "Twilight Zone"). It's zany at times, humorous and a pleasing listen, even if the songs go against jazz convention half the time.
2012, Jazzed Media. Playing Time: 61 minutes.
Afropean Affair, Oscar Perez Nuevo Comienzo. As the title implies, this disc blends African and European traditions, with Latin and contemporary jazz mixed in. Pianist and composer Perez blurs the lines, but it's obvious that Cuban rhythms fueled the compositions on this smartly executed disc. Tunes range from tight modern Latin tunes ("Canaria"), to textural ballads ("As Brothers Would"), to a three-part chamber music suite ("The Afropean Suite"). Perez leads the group -- which includes trumpeter Greg Glassman and saxophonist Stacy Dillard -- with precision. While there is a sense of adventure here, the fairly rigid compositions don't have the free nature of some Latin music, but that's not really the point. The tunes allow for improvisation from everyone, but this is also a buttoned up tear through the Afro-Cuban world. A blending of cultures for sure, and a smart one at that.
2012, Chandra Records. Playing Time: 61 minutes.
The Calling, Romain Collin. Soundscapes. That's the first word that comes to mind after hearing French-born pianist Collin's compositions. They are full of color and broadly painted sounds, along with diverse rhythms and inventive melodic tonal arcs. Many younger jazz artists court this type of intricate jazz, but few do it with just a trio, as Collin does here, thanks to the talents of bassist Luques Curtis and drummer Kendrick Scott. Collin has a nimble touch on the keys, and Curtis and Scott both keep up with precision. When more texture from guitarist John Shannon and cellist Adrian Daurov are added -- as on the grandiose, "Burn. Down." -- the result is nearly symphonic, even with the sparse instrumentation. Collin has an ear for bigger things, but keeping it at a trio level for now means it can't get bombastic, which, if he were given an orchestra, might happen.
2012, Palmetto Records. Playing Time: 64 minutes.
Secrets of Secrets, Aaron Novik. San Francisco clarinetist and composer Novik shares his five secrets on this original disc, which combines classical, improvisation, jazz and more with the Jewish "Kabbalah" traditions. One doesn't have to understand the traditions to listen to the music, but it may help. It begins as a Middle Eastern-tinged classical piece, on "Secrets of Creation," with a bizarrely endearing electric violin solo by Carla Kihlstedt. The electric and acoustic combine throughout, including Novik's electric clarinet work over the small orchestra. Guitarist Fred Frith brings a rock sensibility to these ancient sounding modes, including some fast fingering on the frenetic finale, "Secrets of Formation." This is Jewish traditional music turned upside down. It's strange, it's exotic on more than one front, and somehow I like it.
2012, Tzadik. Playing Time: 68 minutes.
Forget-me-Not, Yelena Eckemoff. Russian pianist Eckemoff has been trained in the classical traditions, but this disc, recorded in Copenhagen with bassist Mats Eilertsen and drummer Marilyn Mazur, encompasses more than just classical. There is contemporary composition, flowing jazz rhythms, introspective passages, and conversational interplay, from the quietude of "Maybe," to the polyrhythmic dance of "Sand-Glass" and the classical-jazz of "Schubert's Code." This is cerebral jazz with feeling, as Eckemoff's subtle touches bring a deep feel to the sometimes classically avantgarde.
2011, L&H Production. Playing Time: 72 minutes.
4, The Clarinet Trio; and Transatlantic, BassX3. The thread between these two seemingly disparate discs is multi-instrumentalist Gebhard Ullmann. Ullmann is a free thinker, a composer who uses the highly unconventional to relay his ideas. That he is a clarinetist first means he thinks from a woodwind sensibility, which is why the Clarinet Trio is on its fourth album. With Jurgen Kupke and Michael Thieke, this is solely clarinet-based music with no backing. For fans of experimental music and woodwind sonic possibilities, this is an album of interest. For the rest of us, it can be just rather shrill noise under the guise of exploration. Ullmann gets more sonic diversity from the BassX3 trio, with him on bass clarinet and flute, and Chris Dahlgren and Clayton Thomas on double basses. It's oddly low, but kind of cool because of the bellowing tonalities. It's still niche music and not the kind of disc you'd want during a conventional dinner party, but the low blows are surely more palatable than three squealing licorice sticks.
2012, Leo Records (both albums). 60 & 63 minutes.
Plays and Sings, Dida Pelled. Pelled is just in her early 20s, but she's already made a mark in her native Israel. Now U.S. audiences can hear her easygoing vocal style and laid back, hollow-bodied guitar work on this debut CD. She mostly goes by her first name, and her talents were recognized by trumpeter Fabio Morgera, who arranged the recording of this disc with such notable names as Roy Hargrove, Gregory Hutchinson and Tal Ronen. Pelled's guitar work is fine for such a young player, especially when backing her endearing vocals with a casual strumming style, and her soloing is solid. Her voice is young, sometimes teasing ("Can't Take My Eyes Off You") and warm. It's a bit like a younger Nora Jones. Most of the tunes here are from the jazz canon, with familiar melodies, but her delivery shows promise that takes her beyond just another girl singer.
2011, Red Records. Playing Time: 58 minutes.
The One Constant, Danny Fox Trio. Piano trios have always been a mainstay in jazz, but there seems to be a rise in their popularity lately. Possibly that's because the trio is jazz in its most simple form, but good players can rise above, especially if their music has integrity and interest. Fox has made a disc of particular interest for those who enjoy good modern jazz with a twist. His original compositions combine traditional trio jazz with chamber jazz, plus elements of rock and scoring. Fox has a broad palette, ranging from whimsical runs to simmering chordal work, and his group of drummer Max Goldman and bassist Chris van Voorst van Beest, form a cohesive union of acoustic jazz.
2011, Songlines Recordings. Playing Time: 69 minutes.

Haven't done it barefoot, but when I was working at a corporate gym (blech), I dropped a 45 on my foot. Even in Chucks, it was pretty excruciating.
So, I was helping the wife load up the bar for deadlifts last night. The calculation came out to some odd number so I grabbed a fractional plate (1.25 lbs) and in doing so dropped it on my big toe (barefoot) from about 9 inches. Jesus, I don't even want to know what dropping a 45 lbs plate would feel like because 1.25 lbs made me cry like my 18 month old daughter.
"The problem with quoting someone on the Internet is, you never know if it's legit" - Abraham Lincoln
Haven't done it barefoot, but when I was working at a corporate gym (blech), I dropped a 45 on my foot. Even in Chucks, it was pretty excruciating.

"The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me."
-Ayn Rand
Ouch, I feel you. I didn't drop a plate exactly, but some of the benches at my gym have wheels and I rolled one right over my big toe. Vibrams are comfy, but they don't provide a lot of protection.
Yikes! I once dropped a cast iron pot lid on my bare foot. My husband said I invented new curse words. It turned all kinds of pretty colors.
I've also had a soup can fall from a pretty good distance and hit my barefoot with a similar result AND
I dropped a knife that hit the top of my foot point down and actually hit a nerve a year ago and I still have issues with the area between my big toe and second toe. You'd think I'd learn to wear shoes in the kitchen...
There's a reason why, in gangster and spy movies, when they want to torture information out of someone, they always start with the fingers and toes. Lots of nerve endings. Hope yours feels less tortured soon.
I did that last year with a pound of frozen chicken breast that I grabbed out of the freezer. Dropped a solid 50 inches to hammer the place where my toe meets my foot. Took at least two chiropractor visits to get it feeling right again.

Objective Following an outbreak of measles in 1989-1991, a blueprint for change
was developed to improve immunization coverage by addressing deficiencies
in the immunization delivery system. A review was undertaken by the National
Vaccine Advisory Committee (NVAC) to assess progress in improving immunization
coverage, decreasing disease incidence, and developing an immunization delivery
system to serve children in the United States. Based on this review, strategies
were recommended to sustain success in immunization coverage.
Participants A Subcommittee on Immunization Coverage was appointed by the chairman
of the NVAC in 1995 and included representatives from federal agencies, professional
organizations, vaccine manufacturers, state and regional health departments,
and academic centers.
Evidence Presentations on immunization programs, strategies, and financing were
made to the subcommittee by representatives from federal, state, and local
agencies; professional organizations; insurers; businesses; and public and
private health care providers. Evidence from the published literature also
was reviewed.
Consensus Process After review and discussion of evidence presented, conclusions and recommendations
were crafted and endorsed by members of the subcommittee. The subcommittee's
report was submitted to the NVAC for review, comment, and approval.
Conclusions Although incidence rates of traditional vaccine-preventable diseases
are at all-time low levels and corresponding vaccination coverage rates are
at all-time high levels, a system to ensure timely vaccination of the 11,000
US infants born each day that also incorporates newly recommended vaccines
is incomplete. Key barriers include lack of financing of vaccination in many
insurance programs and the lack of implementation of evidence-based interventions
to raise coverage levels. The NVAC makes 15 recommendations to achieve a sustainable
childhood immunization delivery system organized around (1) vaccination financing
to ensure full insurance coverage of recommended vaccines and to support the
Vaccines for Children program; (2) provider practices to ensure the implementation
of recall/reminder systems and office-based assessment of coverage levels;
(3) information systems for monitoring disease, vaccination coverage, and
performance on immunization delivery; and (4) support for communities and
families to ensure that the public is aware of the importance of vaccination,
that resources are focused to help underserved children, that immunization
linkages with WIC (the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants,
and Children) are enhanced, and that citizen coalitions can advocate improvements
in the immunization delivery system.

FAMILY SUSPECTS ITS DRUG RELATED. DANNY FIELDS SAYS IN RECENT MONTHS- THE BROTHER HE LOVED TO FISH AND HUNT WITH- HAD BEEN PUT UNDER POLICE SURVEILLANCE. POLICE ARE HERE NOW, BUT HE WISHES IT WOULD HAVE BEEN WEEKS AGO: 5857 df: 5:52:22 i would have much rather seen him go to jail then where he's at now LA: POLICE WON'T SPECULATE ON WHAT'S BEHIND THE TRIPLE SHOOTING. BUT THEY ADMIT TO TWO OBSTACLES: THE RAIN THAT HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMPROMISE THEIR CRIME SCENE AND JUST ONE SURVIVOR. FIELDS IS PRONOUNCED DEAD AT THE SCENE, HOURS LATER HARRIS- THE MAN DISCOVERED LYING NEXT TO THAT TRUCK DIES AT THE HOSPITAL. THAT LEAVES JUST DANIEL SMITSON AND POLICE SAY HE'S LESS THAN COOPERATIVE. 5843 PH 5:37:10 investigators have talked to him but hes not really giving us much info to go on right now. LA: BUT DANNY FIELDS IS CONVINCED THERE'S MORE PEOPLE THAT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AND NOW HE MAKES A PLEA FOR ANSWERS: 5857 df: 5:52:37 if you got info call the police, tell them. Anything... Nicky field's family lives in this area but they say in recent months they've seen so much traffic coming and going from his home, they no longer pay any attention. Family did not notice any cars around the time of the shooting, or even hear gunshots. In Paoli, la, wlky news. ANYONE WITH ANY INFORMATION TONIGHT IS ASKED TO CALL INDIANA STATE POLICE AT 812 482- 1441.

a power company with attitude
When you hear "power company", you don't automatically think edgy, break through advertising. But Powershop in New Zealand is definitely breaking the mold with their "Same Power, Different Attitude" ad campaign featuring dictators doing unlikely "good" things.
Definitely edgy, definitely break-through, and already causing flaming internet arguments... which is a sure sign of an effective campaign. What do you think?
