Some utility poles encroach on new Peach Street sidewalks
Michael Hendrickson-Anderson walks about 55 minutes to work at the Millcreek Mall from his home in the 3000 block of Peach Street.
He said his trip will be safer after the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation completes a project to install sidewalks on both sides of the busy road.
But Hendrickson-Anderson wonders about the safety and accessibility for wheelchair users who will have to go around some utility poles that remain in the middle of newly poured concrete sidewalks.
"I bet they have a lot of trouble. I don't even know if there's room on one side," said Hendrickson-Anderson, 28, who helps prepare merchandise for the sales floor as a backroom coordinator at TJ Maxx.
PennDOT says there's room for wheelchair users, though it acknowledges that about 55 of 109 utility poles in the way of the sidewalk construction couldn't be moved. Many of those poles, however, are not in the middle of sidewalks, but on the edge farthest away from the street, said Doug Fry, assistant construction manager for PennDOT.
The $4.2 million project, funded 80 percent by the federal government and 20 percent by the state, involves sidewalks covering 2.26 miles on each side of Peach Street, from Kuntz Road in Millcreek Township north to Cherry Street in the city of Erie.
Other work being done includes construction of 185 wheelchair-accessible curb ramps, new pedestrian signals and synchronization of traffic signals for less stop-and-start traffic on Peach Street, Fry said.
"A lot (of the signals) are being updated so they can be coordinated, so when you're going down (or up) Peach Street at the posted speed limit, you should be able to catch green for a pretty good stretch," he said.
That should ease driving, but what about the utility poles that weren't moved?
The sidewalks are 5 feet wide, except where poles present an obstacle, Fry said. But he said they are still wide enough for a wheelchair to get around.
"We designed the sidewalk around them to still meet the minimum ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements," he said.
Representatives of Voices for Independence, an Erie nonprofit that advocates for the disabled, could not be reached for comment.
Some utility poles couldn't be moved because there was no place to put them due to private property or conflicts with underground utilities, Fry said. In some cases, utilities didn't have the manpower to move them, he said.
"It's a huge undertaking to move 109 of them," he said.
Utility workers have been pulled away from the project to restore service after storms, and the work must be coordinated among the various utilities that share a pole -- electric, cable and telephone, Fry said.
Jack Laver, vice president of Mayer Brothers Construction Co., said his company is responsible for carrying out the project under PennDOT's design "and all the legwork done, sometimes years in advance."
Laver said the company tries to coordinate its work with utilities so they can remove their lines, move the pole and reattach the lines "as we progress down the road," he said. Mayer Brothers, the low bidder on the project, is also installing some new stormwater pipes and catch basins as part of the project, he said.
Laver said busy Peach Street presents challenges with heavy traffic.
PennDOT said that average daily traffic is 23,000 vehicles just north of Kuntz Road to 18,000 near Cherry Street.
The sidewalk improvements have been in the works since 1999, when a Corry man filed a complaint with the U.S. Justice Department about the sidewalks and curb ramps.
The Federal Highway Administration investigated and agreed with the man's complaint. Design, planning and property acquisitions preceded the construction work.
Fry said the project, which began in 2012, had been scheduled for completion by May 1, 2014, but that's been pushed back to the middle or end of July 2014.
The delay is due to rainy weather and the unavailability, at times, of utility workers.

Man charged in Girard robbery, 15-mile chase
GIRARD -- What started as a convenience store robbery in Girard turned into a police chase and ended with a crash Sunday.
Girard Borough police and state police at Girard said Joseph Grebenz, 31, of Erie, grabbed a cash register then punched a female store clerk in the face during a strong-arm robbery at the Country Fair on Route 20 in Girard Borough.
The robbery happened Sunday at about 1:30 a.m.
Girard Police Chief Nick VanDamia said Grebenz fled the store and led his department -- along with state police and officers from Lake City and Millcreek Township police departments -- on a 15-mile car chase.
The man fled east on Route 20, driving more than 90 miles per hour at times, police said, and then south on Interstate 79 before exiting at Kearsarge in Millcreek Township and heading west, police said.
Police deployed a device to deflate the tires of Grebenz's Mazda Protege. State police said he finally lost control of his car while driving on Zimmerly Road in Millcreek Township at about 1:45 a.m. on Sunday.
Police said he lost control while trying to negotiate a left curve near Shadybrook Drive at about 70 miles per hour. His car spun out of control, hit an embankment on the north side of the road and rolled over.
Grebenz was taken to UPMC Hamot for treatment of minor injuries and was released the same day, police said.
He was arraigned Sunday afternoon before Springfield Township District Judge Chris MacKendrick on charges of robbery, simple assault, driving under the influence, resisting arrest and recklessly endangering another person.
He is being held at the Erie County Prison on $20,000 bond.

ROSWELL, N.M. (AP) - A man injured in a house explosion opened fire on his rescuers, killing two people and injuring two others, before committing suicide Saturday.
The shooter, whose identity was not released, had been burned in the house fire and had sought help from his neighbor Randy Houghton, Roswell Police public information officer Robert Giles said.
EMT Steve Lovato and fire officials were treating and questioning the man around 2 a.m. when he began shooting. Lovato and Houghton were killed.
Roswell Fire Chief Louis Jones and a 4-year-old boy who was in the home were wounded. Both were airlifted to a Lubbock Hospital. Jones was listed in critical condition. The condition of the boy was not available because his name was not released by authorities.

The G-46 brushless sensorless aircraft motor from Hobby People is perfect for glow-powered aircraft in the 46 two-stroke and 52-70 four-stroke size.

In the technical college experience of two-year associate degrees, diplomas and certificates, six S.C. state senators have introduced a legislative measure that would introduce a perhaps unexpected opportunity – a three-year technical college program.
S.C. Tom Young, R-Aiken, was asked to join the group as a co-sponsor, he said on Tuesday.
"This is economic development from a perspective of being able to get additional companies," he said.
A key proponent of the bill is Sen. Sean Bennett, R-Summerville. He had conversations with the other senators, as well as with the S.C. Department of Commerce, about private sector issues.
There's an educational "hole" in terms of advanced manufacturing training, Bennett said.
"We have seen a potential, labeling this a three-year degree, not an associate or four-year degree," he said. "The discussion is that the technical schools are doing the bulk of that work. By statute, we can't do any of this (yet)."
The bill only has been filed at this stage and would have to get to a Senate subcommittee to even begin the legislative process.
Young readily acknowledged he was asked to serve as a co-sponsor and is not yet directly involved in the measure.
However, he recognizes a gap in technical education.
"The state has got to find a better way of training people for advanced manufacturing," Young said. "This requires a specialized training beyond an associate degree."
The concept is not intended to create a program that is three-fourths of a four-year baccalaureate degree, Bennett said. Advanced manufacturing would be valuable to a company such as Boeing – both for the prospective employees and by improving the nation's economy, he said.
The senators are at "day zero," Bennett said. As, or even if, the measure moves through the Senate, more discussion would emerge as to instruction, facility needs and cost.
Aiken Technical College administrators are aware of the legislation that would allow the technical college system to offer such a three-year degree, Bryan Newton, ATC's associate vice president for marketing and enrollment, said in a press release.
"At this time, we do not know the details of how a three-year degree would be implemented," Newton said. "We thank our legislators for their continued concern about improving higher education access for all South Carolinians."
The prospective initiative intrigues Dr. Tim Yarborough, the Aiken County School District's high school academic officer. Students attending the Aiken County Career and Technology Center are learning more about technology and science integration.
"This could be a hybrid," Yarborough said of the three-year concept. "We hope our kids from our career and technology center – with programs like megatronics, electricity, CAAD and machine tools – could get a leg up at tech schools. All of that could lead them to advanced manufacturing."
Colleges and universities probably have the capability to do a three-year program, Bennett said. It's about making sure who is best suited to provide the program.
Dr. Sandra Jordan, USC Aiken chancellor, said she considers the bill's language unclear and currently is gathering information to determine its impact on four-year institutions of higher education.
Again, the three-year training concept would have to get to subcommittee status, Young said, before any concerns and likely amendments would be introduced.
"That's part of the process to address the needs through existing channels or new legislation," he said.
Senior writer Rob Novit is the Aiken Standard's education reporter and has been with the newspaper since September 2001. He is a native of Walterboro and majored in journalism at the University of Georgia.

Myers Mini Mayhams
Welcome to the homestead and my new business. I try as hard as I can to live without the chemicals that the FDA thinks that we need. I would love to hear what everyone has to say. Stay tuned for the latest about my growing business.
Got the Garden done
Back at it
Well I came to the conclusion that it was time to start losing weight was something I had to do. I was starting to hit the 160 mark. For me this not good being that I am under 5 ft. I started watching what I am eating and how many calories that I eat. I got a treadmill and am walking any where from 30 to 45 minutes, I hope that over time I. Will get to where I can walk about 5 miles at 3 mph or more.
New dish
Last night I really did not want to cook. Well I ended up cooking and using 2 boxes of broccoli cheese rice, 4 cans of chicken, 1 can diced tomatoes, 1 jar real bacon bits I made a easy fast dinner that everyone liked. There was a recipe on the back of the rice that I worked off of to get my dinner.
I am going to work on cleaning the chicken coop up some today since the chickens are not laying to good. The coop got flooded a time back when we had 9 inches of rain in 48 hours. We will see how much I can get done.
I got the whole coop done. Really did not take me long but then my husband was in the shop working on his truck to keep me company.
Well there really is not a lot going on here. I have been cooking some new recipes like these pork chops and I made fish last night that was breaded with bread crumbs and coconut.
The chickens are not laying all that well. I did get 5 new hens a time back but lost 4 of them to something getting into the coop. I also hatched some bantam, I ended up with two hens And a rooster. The rooster runs around with Ginger my hen that was in the house time back.
Not to sure if I will get a garden in this year, I sure did not last year. I did get my book on dehydration and have been dehydrating a lot of frozen vegetable and other thing that I can keep around for snacks. If I do get the garden in my dehydrater will be going a lot.
Just before I dot my book and that I got very lucky and found around 70 mason jars for around $6 most of them being wide mouth quarts. That helped with storing all the dehydrated food I have been dehydrating.
My son is suppost to be moving out later next month but the goddess is the only on that know if that is going to happen.
Well might be back at some time but if not sorry.

So its safe to assume this trainer just doesn't work, or am I being dim?
Is there any reason or just lack of support?
It only costs €1.50 too so not sure why people don't own it
we made a working trainer for the game a year ago utilizing a borrowed account to run the game. . it patched a bazillion times because the kook developer was an indie rookie. THEN for some obscure reason they recoded the game with a launcher and changed the entire LUA script path as well as the name of the executables.
we tried to update it best we could since we don't actually own this game and it's just not worth the amount of trouble given that it's a little 1 dollar title from a dink developer group.
plus the graphics hurt my eyes...

Get out on the prowl with our Jaguar Mascot Costume!
This Jaguar Mascot Costume is covered with soft, comfortable faux fur and includes a fan inside the head to help keep you cool on those warm nights. This mascot is available in one size that will fit individuals ranging from 5 feet 4 inches to 6 feet 2 inches and up to 225 pounds. Our Jaguar Mascot Costume will get the crowd pumped up during your games.For color change options please call Customer Service at 1-800-314-8794.
After wearing the mascot, wipe any moisture from inside the head with a clean cloth. You may also spray a mild cleaner (ex. Simple Green, 409, Febreeze) to the inside of the head if you have soiled areas around the neck or chin areas. Then lightly powder the inside of the head with talcum powder, to prevent any moisture from damaging your mascot -- just remember not to wet or clog the Built in Fan.
Hanging the mascot body out to dry after wearing is the best way to keep the body ready for your next wearing. Mascot bodies are machine washable in a gentle cycle. We do NOT recommend Dry Cleaning. Wash as you would delicate clothes. Line dry; never put any parts of your costume in a dryer. Brush as needed.
Wash mascot feet by hand and line dry.
Mascot heads with "flesh" like skin can be cleaned by simply wiping with a damp cloth should the "face" get dirty. Remember the faces are painted with flexible paint but care should be taken not to rub or scratch the surface too hard. Any fur covered area on the head could also be cleaned with a mild rug or upholstery cleaner.

Best Uses
I am the Pep Club moderator for an all girls high school. We ordered this to replace an old mascot costume. The girls love the look of this mascot. In fact, I gave them an option of three different mascots & they chose this one based on the excellent price and the overall design. It was delivered very quickly and was packaged well. The pieces of the costume are quite substantial and there is good padding in the feet of the costume. I haven't used the fan yet, but it looks easy to work (you just need batteries!). The suit itself is easy to put on & fits nearly everyone. It is shedding a little bit, but I believe that is from being new (like a carpet sheds some fibers at first). I also like that they included a letter about how to care for your mascot costume to get the most years out of it. Definitely a great buy for the price!
Best Uses
We got this mascot to replace our original. We love how light the feet and head are, and the face is really expressive and looks great. Tail moves well and head stays on really well. It's still a pretty warm costume, so the fan and ice vest will come in handy. Can't wait to debut him at our Homecoming pep rally!

In this video, we'll be taking a look at the VRay Blend Material. Go ahead and open up the decorative box VRay Blend Scene file, that came with the video. And you'll see a scene that looks like this. When you render the scene, you'll find a box that is not reflective, nor does it have any specular highlights on it. Let's take a look at the box's material in the Attribute Editor. You'll see that the reflection color is set to black. This is not going to matter at all, because the reflection is at black. In this situation, we're going to create a VRay Blend Material that will allow us to put a coat on top of the box, that will give it a lacquered look. So, first with the material that's on the box now, this is what's assigned to the box.
We can see here, this is the base material on the box. In the blender, we're going to middle mouse button drag the base material on over. And then, we'll go on ahead and assign the box to the blend. Right now, the blend only has the coat material. So when you render the scene you'll get the same result as if only the v ray material were assigned. As you can see here you'll get the same render result. Now we'll need to create one of the coat materials that we'll put on here and we'll do that with another v ray material.
And we'll turn that material completely black, but we'll give it a reflectivity, a generous of reflection about there. We'll select the blend material, and then middle mouse button drag this new shiny material onto coat material zero. We'll turn on Additive mode to make sure that the contribution from the black shiny material will add on to the base. We'll go ahead and Render, and you'll begin to see in the render that the reflections are being added.
On to the box without changing the rest of the color of the box in any way shape or form. That's because the shiny material that we created was based on a completely black color with a reflective surface. Comparing the two renders allows you to see the addition of that glossiness from the coat material. This is very useful for creating complex surfaces, such as a car paint, where you have a base color and you have a clear coat on top of it.
We don't want to see reflections in the carving, so we have to map on a hold out map for our reflections into the clear coat of our object. Especially, because we have no reflection on the base coat it has to go node instead. And simply we'll minimize button we'll drag over to the reflection color. And we will offset the white color of that map, by bringing down the amount to about a half, which is about were it was before. We'll make sure that this is in our history, which it is. And then we will render to see the reflection hold outs, and how they work in the carvings of the box.
And you'll immediately see that, we are now holding out all those reflections properly. With the render complete, we verify that our reflection map is working great. This blend material allows us to have a clear coat that will give us a lot of control over the reflection coat that's on. And you can stack multiple coats on top of your base with these multiple slots that are inside the blend material. Now, here I've created a new VRay Blend Material, and a blue and a red material to see how the blend works.
We'll place the blue as the base and the red as the coat material. Now, without additive mode turned on, what you get is a straight blend between the two materials that is controlled by the blend amount. White makes the coat material predominant, while black makes the blue material predominant. Additive mode will only take the highlights from the coat material and add them to the blue. You can control the blend amount using a map as well. Let's go ahead and assign the box to our new blend material, and render the scene. As you can see, the box takes on a purple color as a blend of blue and red. However, in the blend material, if we use this ramp for example, to control the blend amount, we'll be able to get a much different effect with blue on top and red on the bottom, as you can see in this render.
Of course, top and bottom are completely dependent on the U and the V of the object. The UV layout will have a distinct impact on how this box operates with its color. This way you can use a map to govern which material shows up where, and how they blend together. This gives you the ability to mix different materials on the same object and be able to use a map to distinguish which material goes where. And you can do this with a number of eight coats and one base. Just keep in mind if you're stacking them to keep Additive Mode turned off, and to use a separate blend amount map, such as this ramp on each of the coat materials with the higher numbered coat being on top of the lower numbered coats. In this video, we talked about the VRay Blend Material and how you can use it to create multiple materials on the same object.
And also, on how to create a clear gloss that is more easily controlled on top of an matte object.

Gates still at war in 'Duty'
"Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War"
By Robert M. Gates
Alfred A. Knopf; 640 pages; $35
During four and a half years as secretary of defense under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, Robert M. Gates was widely lauded as a shrewd national security mandarin who had seen it all, done it all and most important, could stay above it all in the partisan wars of Washington.
So the snarky put-downs and petulant asides in his impassioned, if somewhat contradictory, memoir, "Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War," come as something of a surprise.
Behind his mask of calm civility, Gates nursed grudges, tallied up slights and jotted down the caustic ripostes that he never delivered in public.
The carping and zingers generated headlines. No crime there, but because he also bemoans the backbiting and bickering in politics, he lowers his pedestal considerably to do so.
Gates is the embodiment of a Washington trope: the independent outsider as consummate insider. He has worked for eight presidents since Lyndon Johnson while proclaiming his loathing for it all.
His most recent book covers a particularly turbulent period, from December 2006 to June 2011, when the Pentagon was fighting -- and in danger of losing -- the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Running two major wars and the world's biggest military was tough enough. Doing it in the last two years of Bush's second term, and the first two years of Obama's first, could cause whiplash.
So can Gates' book, which ranges from generous and gracious to churlish and self-righteous, sometimes on the same page. But it is compelling.
Gates is a foreign policy realist, so he views the world through relatively nonideological eyes. Put another way, he adjusts course and counsel as the winds dictate. It doesn't make his observations of White House decision-making, and his indictment of Washington's dysfunction, any less trenchant.
Bush and his aides squandered initial military victories in both wars by mistakes and shortsighted policies, he admits.
Although Gates doesn't mention the Abu Ghraib prison scandal or other military abuses of that era, he implicitly criticizes his predecessor, Donald Rumsfeld.
Gates hints broadly that he is done with government. But who knows? He and Hillary Rodham Clinton, he notes, "agreed on almost every important issue."

text: My Party: T.J. (Long Island, NY) Best Kids Parties: The Very Hungry Caterpillar Carrie McBride Sep 29, 2011 My Party Home Share Pin Email Share Pin Email Shelley poured a lot of love and work into T.J.'s Eric Carle-themed party. She shares: We recently celebrated our daughter's 3rd birthday. T.J. loves the book The Very Hungry Caterpillar, so it was a fitting theme for her big day! The kids arrived to activities set up in the backyard. We had two craft stations; first, they had canvases and squares of tissue paper, to make an Eric Carle inspired artwork. They were later embellished with the childs name and a butterfly, wrapped in cellophane and we delivered as their party favor. The second craft station was fruit stamping, using the fruit from the book! The kids made wonderful works of art and the colors really popped off the page! The children also wiggled through a canvas tunnel and became beautiful butterflies on the way out! Handmade butterfly antenna's were given to each child! Then the best part! Early in the morning we "hid" over 200 caterpillar foams and the kids went on a caterpillar hunt! This was truly the best part (who knew?). We could have had 2000 caterpillars and the kids would've loved it! We purchased magnifying glasses and glasses for the kids to wear in their search, and they all looked absolutely incredible! We all then headed inside for a reading of The Very Hungry Caterpillar by my Mum (who came in again from Australia to help with the event!). The kids (and their families!) loved the buffet table. Every food from the book was there, each with custom signs! The cupcake ice cream cones were the hit. We made them into cupcakes, so we could set them on the buffet table and not worried about melting ice cream! T.J.'s cake was a huge hit! Again, completely homemade! It was 5ft long, but only the head was edible (who needs THAT much cake?) we covered plastic bowls in buttercream (numerous shades of green, for effect!) placed it all on shredded paper! The party was a huge hit! We would be lying if we said this wasn't a lot of work, but we enjoyed the process throughout the year! Thanks Shelley! (Images: Reader Shelley) We love a good party!

on October 5, 2012 - 12:01 AM
"Jazz needs a wake-up call."
That's renowned jazz keyboardist Robert Glasper's take on the art form he has spent his already-storied career exploring.
With his own piano-led trio, Glasper, a 34-year-old native of Houston and graduate of the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York City, made it plain to the world that he has the chops, the vocabulary and the harmonic intelligence to know of what he speaks.
With his Robert Glasper Experiment, he capitalizes on that knowledge, searching for new hybrids, oft overlooked convergences, and the less-than-obvious approach to, in his words, "mingling with the modernistic."
Through the Experiment's well-received "Black Radio" album, and the about to be released "Black Radio Recovered: The Remix EP," Glasper and his cohorts have boldly married jazz to hip-hop and soul, and covered a wide swath of "modernistic" sounds. It is music that defies easy genre classification. In concert, Glasper might seamlessly hitch Herbie Hancock's "Maiden Voyage" to Radiohead's "Everything in Its Right Place." On record, he and his bandmates treat David Bowie's deep-cut "Letter to Hermione" to the same sort of stylistic makeover granted Mongo Santamaria's "Afro Blue." All are delivered with musical fearlessness.
Fresh from a high-profile date in London as part of the 2012 iTunes Festival, Glasper spoke to The News by phone � "I'm jet-lagged and wiped out, but good otherwise," he laughed � in anticipation of the Glasper Experiment's 8 p.m. show Saturday at the Tralf Music Hall.
Not surprisingly, he had plenty of thoughts to share on the current state of jazz.
>Do you get the impression that people are beginning to drop their preconceptions regarding what jazz is or isn't, and learning to just plain listen?
Slowly but surely, man, slowly but surely.
The thing is, with the older generation of listeners, there's a disconnect there that just is not going to be an easy thing to get past. I'm not trying to change these people's minds. It's not worth it. I don't think their minds can be changed, anyway, so why worry about it?
But with kids, well, it's a different story. There is no reason a kid won't want to listen to a Charlie Parker solo. And yet, for them, they aren't carrying all of this baggage, so they are more likely to accept hip-hop intermingling with jazz. That's my main thing � to get the younger people into it, because they are the ones who will carry the legacy of jazz forward in new and exciting directions.
>Part of the magic in what you've done with "Black Radio" and with the new "Remix EP" can be pinpointed to the way you've taken jazz out of the museum and reacquainted it with the real world.
Yeah man, that's exactly what I want to do. I want jazz to be mingling with the strippers again. (Laughs.) Because remember that's where it came from. These cats were backing strippers. Jazz was the hip-hop of its day.
>Although there is no harmonic connection between the two, I do often hear jazz-style phrasing in the best hip-hop.
Hip-hop came from jazz, definitely. It didn't come from polka. (Laughs.) A lot of the phrasing is the same. So really, we are just taking that idea forward.
>Many of the supposed "protectors" of jazz have had a terrible problem with the music assimilating new influences over the years. I'm reminded of (renowned jazz critic) Stanley Crouch lambasting Miles Davis when Miles began to favor rhythm and melody over dense harmony, and bringing in funk in lieu of the traditional swing.
Innovative people have always been targets for abuse from close-minded people who are afraid of change. A true musician is open-minded, and knows that change is good, necessary, and inevitable.
"The thing is, 'Trane [saxophonist John Coltrane] was not praised at the time he was doing his most innovative work. He's praised now, because people finally caught up to what he was doing. But at the time, they called it "fire alarm music," (laughs) because he'd start playing that [expletive] and the room would clear out like somebody had pulled the fire alarm!
Geniuses are ahead of their time. It takes the rest of the world a while to catch up with them. You can definitely say that about Miles, too. You know what he'd be doing if he was with us now? He'd be integrating hip-hop, because he always wanted the music to reflect the street, what people were listening to. He didn't want to relive the past. When they'd ask him why he changed, he'd say, "Because I already did all that other [expletive]." And he was right.
>Hasn't jazz always been about the assimilation of new and varied influences? Isn't that what the music is supposed to do?
That's right. That's right. I'm at the point where I don't even give a [expletive] what anyone calls my music. (Laughs.) I say, "Do you like it? Does it move you?" If the answer's yes, good. If it isn't, oh well. Don't listen. What label they need to put on it, well, that just doesn't interest me. If you want to call it R&B, go ahead. If you want to call it jazz, fine.
You know, jazz is the house with the most rooms in it. It's still alive and moving. There are so many different aspects of the music. It can't be defined, really, because it shouldn't sit still long enough to be defined.
>With the Robert Glasper Experiment, Casey Benjamin has always used the vocoder [a voice synthesizer] in a high-profile manner during your live shows. With the new album's material in particular, is the vocoder being used to take over the role handled by the vocals on the album itself?
The vocoder has always been there with the Experiment, because when you are looking at a live quartet, the traditional thing would be for a saxophone to take that role, and maybe to make it more modern, the sax player would run his horn through effects pedals and all of that [expletive]. That's cool, but it's been done already. The vocoder allows us to do some crazy stuff that's different, that hasn't been done to death already.
>Here in Buffalo, what you're doing is not an alien thing to a certain aspect of the local music scene. We're seeing these incredible jam sessions in town, gigs where funk, jazz, rock, hip-hop and soul musicians are sharing the bandstand. DJs, horn players and guitarists might collaborate on an improvisation-based gig, and there is a common language there.
That's great to hear, because that is totally where it's at. That's how the music will stay alive, and that's how it will move forward and stay relevant to people as it moves forward.
And again, it's all about the kids, in a sense � they're the ones who will be carrying the music forward."

Brian Stevenson's three-bay garage has the aura of a big boys' clubhouse. When I visited on a recent Sunday afternoon, three Cobra replicas — Big Red, Blue Bird and the Black Pearl — were parked in formation. If horsepower were water, it would have been up to our knees.
Brian Stevenson, his brother Paul, nephew Zach and his brother-in-law Tony White, live within a few blocks of one another near Kansas City, Mo. They call themselves the Brotherhood of the Snake, and the bond between these four, and their cars, is almost palpable. They are car enthusiasts of the first order, and they hover over their Cobras like bees searching for pollen.
Stevenson's family has a long history of building cars. Brian restored a Volkswagen Beetle for his daughter, Meredith, and a Pontiac Firebird for his son, Matthew. About five years ago, Brian, Paul and Zach did a ground-up restoration of a 1968 Mustang California Special.
Brian had always wanted a 427 SC Cobra replica, so he bought frame No. 3, generation 1, from Premier MotorSports in Kansas City, Kan., and constructed Big Red.
Brian, along with his brother, nephew and lots of friends, completed his car in 2002. The 428-cubic-inch V-8 that now produces about 460 horsepower was originally used to power an irrigation machine in western Kansas. Brian had the engine rebuilt with aluminum heads and an aluminum intake manifold.
A few years ago, Brian's sister, Pat, and her husband, Tony White, moved close by. White, from England, drove Brian's Cobra and was smitten. It was not long before he had a Factory Five Cobra kit. The group completed Blue Bird, with a Ford Racing 302- cubic-inch V-8, in about a year.
In 2008, Paul bought a Premier Motor- Sports replica, frame No. 3 of generation 2, and he, along with the rest of the Brother-hood, tackled the project. Since this was their third Cobra, they had the build process well in hand, and the Black Pearl was recently completed.
All three Cobra replicas were in the Mid-America Cobra Club's display at Kansas City's World of Wheels car show in February. You can identify the Brotherhood of the Snake by their immaculate cars and the smiles on their faces.

But it was clear coming back to the town where his NBA career began sparked some emotion within the four-time NBA scoring champ. Because Seattleites aren't the only ones who fantasize about what Durant could have done in this city — Durant does, too. "When the Seahawks won the title, and I was with the Thunder, and we were playing well, I was imagining how the city would have felt with both teams here," Durant said. "It would have been electric. It would have been something we've never seen before — something no city has seen before. But we can dream, man."
Owners Rumors
Would you be surprised to see him on television as an NBA analyst? Jimmy Jam: No, I wouldn't be surprised to see him on TV. I would enjoy seeing him on TV. I don't know if you've ever had a chance to sit with him to watch a basketball game, but it's hilarious. It's unbelievable. I wouldn't be surprised if he did that. Ownership, he expressed an interest in that. But it's too bad with Flip passing away. It was a great plan that Flip had. The initial plan was to bring him back, give him the ropes of ownership. I think he still is interested in that. He has never expressed one definitive thing that he wants to do. That's why I said there is no rush to me. I'm sure he's made plans and there are things he wants to do.

Reinsdorf, chairman of the Bulls for the past 31 years and chairman of MLB's Chicago White Sox for 35 is one of the few owners whose teams have won championships in two of the four major U.S. team sports. The multi-sport owner has kept things seemingly simple along the way. Seizing opportunities as they presented themselves, suffering little apparent doubt, brushing himself off briskly after missteps and sticking to a few core principles have him, at age 80, fit and nearly as involved as ever. "He wants to win," said Michael Reinsdorf, 49, the second-born of Reinsdorf's three sons and the president and COO of the Bulls since 2010. "After the World Series [won by the White Sox in 2005], he was like, 'Well, this will make it easier now. I won't get so emotional now during games.' And it's never changed. Easier said than done."
It's the "team" thing again for Reinsdorf. "At the end of the day, it's up to the players," he said. "But somebody drafted them, somebody generated money to pay them. You can have the greatest players in the world and they're not going to win without the coaches. The greatest coaches aren't going to win without the players. "I don't think there's anybody who's been super-successful who did it by himself or herself. You've got to have help from other people."

Exercise Balls/Stability Balls
I have a couple of questions with regard to exercise balls, the kind that are big enough to sit on.
1.What is your take on exercise balls? We all know that the abs are important to all martial artists, and that core training is important.What do you think of exercise balls?Have you ever used them,or do you use them now?
2.I recently saw one on the internet, it had these attachments that looked like the stirrups on a horse's saddle, but you slipped your hands into these and then you pull up on them to work your biceps.
My question: Who sells these? What internet site offers these? I didn't write it down at the time, and now I can't find them.I would like to check out an exercise ball with the attachment(s) for working the biceps.Can you help me out with this one? My google search turned up like 20 pages, and it is just too exhausting.If you know what I'm talking about, I'd certainly appreciate it.
I use one everytime I work out at the gym and I also have one at home that I use when I'm doing other stuff. Suffice to say they are freaking awesome and one of the best things to hit gyms and exercising equipment in a very long time. I don't use the one with attachments because you can use other things for that. Honestly I just bought mine at Target for $15-20. You can order off the internet if you want but most large chain stores have them. I bought a generic one and it's lasted over 2 years now.
Using it at home can basically wipeout having to buy a bench or a movable bench that can do incline because you can use different seated positions to get the right angle you need. Doing seated exercises helps with stability and core muscles as well as push-ups off the ball and ab exercises. You can do so many things off the ball it's awesome.
Can't recommend one enough. :thumbsup:
Listen:Obviously you know about the one with attachments.
What can you tell me about it?
Who manufactures it?
What is it called?
And most importantly,where can I get one?
Exercise balls are the best I use them almost every workout, there is so much you can do and isolate with them. I bought minw from a company called core secrets and I love it. I think you can find it at www.yogadirect.com
Hello, well I'd like to start using an exercise ball so I can make my abs routine and upper body exercise routine more challenging. The problem is I have no idea which size ball to get. I'm 4'11 and I don't think weight is a factor in deciding the size. Also where can I find ball workouts online? Advance thanks to everyone for your advice and suggestions.

Policy Statements: Occupational Safety and Health Standards for Aircraft Cabin Crewmembers
This Proposed Rule document was issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
For related information, Open Docket Folder
Federal Aviation Administration
14 CFR Parts 91, 121, 125 and 135
[Docket No.: FAA-2012-0953]
Policy Statement on Occupational Safety and Health Standards for Aircraft Cabin Crewmembers
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
Notice of availability; request for comments.
This notice announces the availability of a proposed policy statement regarding the regulation of some occupational safety and health conditions affecting cabin crewmembers on aircraft by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). This policy statement will enhance occupational safety and health in the aircraft cabin by establishing the extent to which OSHA requirements may apply to the working conditions of aircraft cabin crew while they are onboard aircraft in operation.
Send comments on or before January 7, 2013.
Send comments identified by docket number FAA-2012-0953 using any of the following methods:
Privacy: The FAA will post all comments it receives, without change, to , including any personal information the commenter provides. Using the search function of the docket Web site, anyone can find and read the electronic form of all comments received into any FAA docket, including the name of the individual sending the comment (or signing the comment for an association, business, labor union, etc.). DOT's complete Privacy Act Statement can be found in the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (65 FR 19477-19478), as well as at .
Docket: Background documents or comments received may be read at at any time. Follow the online instructions for accessing the docket or go to the Docket Operations in Room W12-140 of the West Building Ground Floor at 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.
For Further Information Contact
For technical questions concerning this proposed policy statement, contact Gene Kirkendall, Part 121 Air Carrier Operations Branch (AFS-220), Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20591; telephone (202) 267-8166; email .
Supplementary Information
Comments Invited
The FAA invites interested persons to participate by submitting written comments, data, or views on the policy statement. The most helpful comments reference a specific portion of the policy statement, explain the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. To ensure the docket does not contain duplicate comments, commenters should send only one copy of written comments, or if comments are filed electronically, commenters should submit only one time.
The FAA will file in the docket all comments it receives, as well as a report summarizing each substantive public contact with FAA personnel concerning this notice. The FAA will consider comments filed after the comment period has closed if it is possible to do so without incurring expense or delay. The proposed policy statement is available for review in the assigned docket at .
On July 10, 1975, the FAA published a notice in the Federal Register setting forth the FAA's determination that its authority to promote the safety of civil aircraft operations included occupational safety and health for aircraft crewmembers. The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 currently requires the FAA to initiate development of a policy statement to set forth the circumstances in which the requirements of the OSHA may be applied to crewmembers while working in an aircraft. Since this proposed policy statement changes an existing FAA policy that has been in effect for 37 years, and this new policy would change the extent of FAA's jurisdiction over cabin crewmembers, FAA believes that the aviation industry as well as all interested parties should have the opportunity to comment on the proposed policy statement before it is implemented.
Therefore, this notice is requesting comment on the proposed policy statement which is available for review in the assigned docket.
Issued in Washington, DC, on November 29, 2012.

Director, Flight Standards Service.

According to witnesses, an armed man barricaded himself in the house at 6037 Sanibel. Richmond County property tax records show that the house is owned by Ronnie Greene, who bought it in 2008.
Investigator William Leisey said Greene was charged with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm in the commission of a crime.
Neighbors said that the incident began as a domestic dispute. The man's wife had left the home before the SWAT team arrived, they said.
The standoff, which began early this afternoon., ended about 7:30 p.m., according to a sheriff's dispatch supervisor.

The September book is "Code Name Verity" by Elizabeth Wein.
"Oct. 11th, 1943—A British spy plane crashes in Nazi-occupied France. Its pilot and passenger are best friends. One of the girls has a chance at survival. The other has lost the game before it's barely begun. When "Verity" is arrested by the Gestapo, she's sure she doesn't stand a chance. As a secret agent captured in enemy territory, she's living a spy's worst nightmare. Her Nazi interrogators give her a simple choice: reveal her mission or face a grisly execution. As she intricately weaves her confession, Verity uncovers her past, how she became friends with the pilot Maddie, and why she left Maddie in the wrecked fuselage of their plane. On each new scrap of paper, Verity battles for her life, confronting her views on courage, failure and her desperate hope to make it home. But will trading her secrets be enough to save her from the enemy? A Michael L. Printz Award Honor book that was called "a fiendishly-plotted mind game of a novel" in The New York Times, Code Name Verity is a visceral read of danger, resolve, and survival that shows just how far true friends will go to save each other." (Amazon.com)
"Elizabeth Wein moved to England when she was 3 and started school there. When Elizabeth was six, her father, Norman, was sent to the University of the West Indies in Jamaica for three years. Elizabeth lived in Jamaica from 1970-1973. She loved Jamaica and as a child was fluent in Jamaican patois. It was in Jamaica that she first started reading, and consequently, first started writing. At the age of 7, she and a friend completed a "book" called 'The Hidden Treasure' as part of a mystery series based on the Hardy Boys.
"When her parents separated, Wein and her younger brother and sister ended up back in the USA living with their mother Carol Flocken in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, where Carol's parents were. When Carol died in a car accident in 1978, Carol's parents took the children in and raised them. In the years immediately following her mother's death, books were Wein's lifeline, particularly fantasy. Inspired by JRR Tolkien, Alan Garner and Ursula K LeGuin, Elizabeth completed an epic fantasy novel, 'By Sunlight and Starlight,' at 14. In retrospect it was mostly awful, described by one contemporary reader as "the stupidest book I ever read," but it was very good practice. Elizabeth then discovered King Arthur (through Mary Stewart, T.H. White and Susan Cooper), and at 15 started work on the characters and storyline which eventually became her first published novel, 'The Winter Prince.'
"Wein went to Yale University, spent a work-study year back in England, and then spent seven years getting a Ph.D. in Folklore at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, where she held a Javits Fellowship. While in Philadelphia she learned to ring church bells in the English style known as "change ringing", and in 1991 she met her future husband there at a bell ringers' dinner-dance. Tim is English, and in 1995 Elizabeth moved to England with him, and then to Scotland in 2000.
"Wein also writes short stories. She and Tim have two children."

29sep6:30 pm- 8:00 pmHaunted Highlands6:30 pm - 8:00 pm Damascus Library
Author Joe Tennis shares tales of a fiddler who could make snakes dance, the phantom sounds inside a mental hospital and "Godat 's Halo" on Roan Mountain in his latest book, "Haunted Highlands."
"Haunted Highlands: Ghosts & Legends of North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia" (Backyard Books, $6.99) features tales of the Martha Washington Inn at Abingdon; the "Marble Boy" of East Tennessee State University in Johnson City; and the Devil's Stairs on the North Carolina side of the Virginia-Carolina Railway at Warrensville.

Fatal on-the-job highway incidents in 2006
September 06, 2007
While fatal highway incidents remained the most frequent type of fatal work-related event, accounting for nearly one out of four fatal work injuries, the number of highway fatalities fell 8 percent between 2005 and 2006.
The 1,329 fatal highway incidents in 2006 was the lowest annual total since 1993.
Nonhighway incidents (such as those that might occur on a farm or industrial premises) remained at about the same level in 2006. Work-related pedestrian fatalities were lower in 2006 than in 2005. Aircraft related fatalities increased sharply in 2006 after declining in 2005; the 215 fatalities involving aircraft in 2006 represented a 44-percent increase over the 149 in 2005.
The Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries, part of the BLS Injuries, Illnesses, and Fatalities program, provides the most complete count of fatal work injuries available. For more information on fatal work injuries, see "National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries in 2006," (PDF) (TXT) news release USDL 07-1202.
