Interview by Amy Harris at The First 3 Songs
Alter Bridge is a hard rock band formed by Creed members Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall, and Scott Phillips alongside their lead singer Myles Kennedy. The band released their third studio album in 2010, aptly named ABIII. The album features their first number one hit "Isolation" and debuted in the top 20 the week after release. They are currently on tour with Theory of a Deadman, Black Stone Cherry, Adelita's Way, and Emphatic on the Carnival Madness tour.
Amy spoke with guitarist Tremonti to preview the tour coming through the area in Louisville and Dayton. They talked about the band's writing style and his future ventures including the future of his solo career and other headlining band Creed. Alter Bridge will be playing the Kentucky State Fair in Louisville Friday night and in Dayton, Ohio as part of X-Fest in Dayton on September 18 with the rest of the acts on the Carnival of Madness tour.
Amy: I've seen you play several times in Creed and with Alter Bridge most recently at Rock on the Range. I love you guys in both bands. I know you write a lot of music with Myles and for Creed as well. Do you have a different writing style when you are considering the different vocals between Myles and Scott?
Mark: No, when I am writing, I am writing whatever I am feeling at the moment. Then later on I will go through and categorize stuff after the fact and kind of organize ideas once I have gotten out of the moment.
Amy: Do you write it by yourself?

Being a Good Corporate Citizen
At Catoctin Creek, we support our local economy in a variety of ways. More than just profiting from the sales of our products, we desire to build a business that supports others in our local community. For instance, buying produce from local farms, orchards and vineyards supports the small-scale independent farmer and prevents the further loss of our critical family-owned farm resources.
Our spent rye mash is collected and given away freely to farmers as an organic and nutrient-rich livestock feed. Indeed, we are overjoyed when we hear how much the animals in our county love and devour what would be a waste by-product to other industries. Working with several local farmers in the county, we are able to ensure a free and nutritious source of food for their animals, while minimizing the impact to landfill and sewage systems.
Whenever possible, we buy our inventory and services from local businesses. Our boxes come from Maryland; our organic certification is performed from southern Pennsylvania; our kosher certification is headquartered in Baltimore. This helps us not only minimize our cost for shipping and transportation, but it also bolsters the local economy. Additionally, we support various local organizations including the Loudoun Abused Women's Shelter, the Loudoun Habitat for Humanity, and various local charities. A portion of all of our sales supports needy residents in Loudoun County.
At Catoctin Creek, it's about more than just making whisky. It's about building a business we can be proud of.

One of the narratives that came out of the 2012 campaign was that "the people" (read: Obama backers) narrowly escaped an election hijacked by a narrow band of one-percenters funding Mitt Romney and associated SuperPACS. The reality is somewhat more complicated, as my UMB colleagues Tom Ferguson and Jie Chen and Paul Jorgenson of the University of Texas show in Revealed: Why the Pundits Are Wrong About Big Money and the 2012 Elections. As the authors argue it isn't that some loose alliance of "the people" beat back big money, but that
Our conclusion is that there is nothing paradoxical about the Republican loss. One campaign funded largely by the super-rich lost to another just about as affluently funded.
If you are earning up to $400,000 per year, as the fiscal cliff "negotiations" showed us, congratulations – you are in the American "middle" class. But if you are somewhere in the lower regions of our middle class, heed this warning from professors Ferguson, Chen, and Jorgenson; there may be some surprises in store:
[W]e remind readers that the dynamics of campaigns funded mostly by major investors are quite different than the campaigns imagined by traditional democratic theory: "Big Money's most significant impact on politics is certainly not to deliver elections to the highest bidders. Instead it is to cement parties, candidates, and campaigns into the narrow range of issues that are acceptable to big donors. The basis of the "Golden Rule" in politics derives from the simple fact that running for major office in the U.S. is fabulously expensive. In the absence of large scale social movements, only political positions that can be financed can be presented to voters. On issues on which all major investors agree (think of the now famous 1 percent), no party competition at all takes place, even if everyone knows that heavy majorities of voters want something else." (Thomas Ferguson, Paul Jorgensen and Jie Chen, AlterNet).
So when Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, who is now in charge of the talks on the fiscal cliff for the White House, tells reporters that the administration would like to include Social Security in the negotiations, pay attention.

Scientific Name
Pterospermum diversifolium
Physical Characteristics
Bayok is a medium tree reaching a height of four to 10 meters.
Its leaves are oblong to oblong-obovate, grow 15 to 25 centimeters in length, abruptly pointed at the apex, and broad or heart-shaped at the base. The upper surface of the blade is smooth, and the lower surface is pale and densely hairy.
The flowers are white, measure 12 to 14 centimeters long, and borne singly or in pairs in the axils of the leaves.
The fruit is about 15 centimeters long, woody, and five-angled.
The species is common and widely distributed in the Philippines. It is mostly found in Cagayan to Camarines Provinces in Luzon, Mindoro, Palawan, Ticao, Masbate, Guimaras, Negros, Mindanao, and Basilan. It is commonly found in forests at low and medium altitudes.
Contemporary Uses
Bayok wood is used for jointing, flooring, cladding, making of furniture and tool handles, and manufacture of plywood. It is also used in ship- and bridge-building and construction of beams, joints, and rafters. It is also suitable for matches and the production of wood-wool board. The pulp is suitable for making paper. The bark of this tree is used for dyeing fish nets and cloth.
Traditional Uses
Bark and flowers, charred and mixed with the glands of banuyo (Mallotus philippinensis) are employed in smallpox to discharge the pus. The tannin-rich leaves and bark are used in traditional medicine as poultice against itch and wound infection and taken internally to treat dysentery.

Official reactions to gun tragedies are misguided
There have been considerable discussions about these unfortunate happenings last year and several executive orders have been signed by President Obama ostensible to eliminate them in the future. But, if we look at the facts surrounding two of them, these new orders would have done nothing to prevent them from happenings. The 26 murders in Newtown, Conn., were done by a mentally disturbed individual that should not have had access to guns of any kind. The guns were legally purchased by his mother but were not secured in a gun safe or other means to ascertain they would not be used by just anyone.
The other case involved a convicted convict who, after being denied permission to purchase guns by a background check, he convinced a neighbor to purchase them for him. He then used these guns to kill several people but not reported by the press, these guns were traced to this woman who at first said that they had been stolen, but later admitted the truth. She has been charged and the case is still pending.
In summation, I believe that future mass killings could be drastically curtailed if present and future gun owners were more cognitive of the safe and proper handling of these dangerous firearms.
It seems that our Executive branch of government is intentionally causing divisions among the residents by promoting their misguided agendas and unenforceable restrictions, instead of reviewing the actual facts concerning these horrific occurrences. Obama will need to drastically revise his agenda if the government is to improve in the next four years but don't hold your breath.

Hullo everyone,
Doing a charity event tomorrow night for children's education. Along with Fionola Hughes, juliet Mills and Gordon Thompson we are doing a reading of Noel Coward's Private Lives. Should be fun.
Off to NY and Wash. on Tuesday for meetings for one week. Had a DOOL show yesterday with Lexie. It went very well. Sorry to say but there has been so little story that I'm a little bewildered. It was going so well. But I'm doing other things that could be very exciting.
Also Nov 1 Dool has a big party at NBCUNIVERSAL. If you're around try and come. Maybe Leann and I could wear aprons again and serve our public well. Hopefully there will be story but we should let them know.
went to Cuba for my time off and worked with a church group. They are great people ...but a lot of struggling and small wages. But a great culture ..it was great to help along. I loved meeting you all in Boston. It was a lovely time had by all. It seems to be a time of charity.
Be kind, be grateful and even in these tough times we are still doing better than most.

|Well that just sucks. Though Days of our Lives is the best at sucking uproariously monumental amounts so I'm not surprised.

He has a point. They did this huge build up to the battle for Stefano's empire (although I have no clue what that means or how they plan to do it) with Ej and Tony taking on Steffie and John, and BAM. We dont' hear anything else about it.
I guess since John is short circuiting and EJ is dealing with his harem, Tony and Steffie are going to wait for them to work out their issues. Weird.
Love Thaao. Seems like a genuine person.
So I take it that serving Steffie in aprons wasn't his favorite scene of all time?
|Sep 29 2008, 07:11 AM Post #4
I share Thaao's bewilderment. That story had a big buildup and now seems to be forgotten. And the apron wearing scenes were funny, but they were also out of left field and out of character.
I'm glad he's enjoying his time off. He leads such an interesting life!
|Sep 29 2008, 07:34 AM Post #5
|Too bad he hasn't been having good stories.... I love seeing him and Anna together.
|Sep 29 2008, 08:01 AM Post #6
This is my frustration with the show. It's like there is no thought out plan. We get the build-up to what should be a big battle for the Dimera empire, and it seems like the writers don't know what to do with it or have lost interest or didn't realize the timing issues and are just waiting around for things to clear up. This should have been a fascinating story for the Dimera men, and Tony is afk, EJ is mooning over Nicole, and John's brain is ticking away.
Why in the world did we get Stefano proposing to Kate when her lung cancer storyline was coming up? I'd like to think there was a reason, and maybe there is, but the pacing of the stories is terrible.
Edited by Kyrai, Sep 29 2008, 08:01 AM.
|Sep 29 2008, 08:27 AM Post #7
I forgot about Steffie proposing to Kate. Did she ever answer him? Did they totally just drop that? Was there even a point to that?
So friggin weird!!! Why bring that up, have Joe M talk about it in mags, put it in spoilers then drop it totally????
Maybe they will follow up with that next year or something???
|Sep 29 2008, 09:04 AM Post #8
|Just another example of how Dena has no idea how to multi-task w/ her writing, you know there is such a thing of having more then one story going on at a time, Dena.. :eyeroll:
|Sep 29 2008, 09:06 AM Post #9
When I first heard about it, I figured maybe Steffie was going to take care of Kate thru this, show a human compassionate caring side or something, but it seems like that will be Dr. Dan. Alternatively, I thought she might accept due to the cancer for some reason.
I don't recall her giving him an answer yet. I thought she just said she'd have to think about it.
They may come back to it, but it's been sitting a while. You'd think there would be some follow-up if only them both thinking about it. Well, at least, I would think there would be some follow-up.
|Sep 29 2008, 12:22 PM Post #10
I still believe Thaoo would be gone by now if he had not been Emmy nominated and if Joe had never returned. That is why I think Tony is going to be just an extra trip lying around. They seem to be involved Anna more lately then him. If you think about it, they can easily just have it be between Stefano and EJ for the empire. Tony is just tossed in.
I'm kind of stunned he took issue with the apron scenes. He usually likes comic pieces like that. As for the Kate proposal, she said she had to think about it and no doubt that is going to tie into her illness story.
The Dimera story was featured alot last week as Stefano alluded to some of his plans and thev J&M stuff began to take off. It's not like they dropped the story and have had it sit there for 3 months. I can see where Thaoo is coming from personally as he hasn't been featured since the cocktail party but Anna was on last week and so was Joe so the story is going on. They just aren't using him. Hopefully it picks up soon but other stories are picking up to so it's fine by me. As long as they get back to it soon, it should be fine.
|Sep 29 2008, 12:43 PM Post #11
Poor Thaao. The show gives him what looks like it could be a future storyline, and he gets his hopes up, only to have any hopes of a story dropped. I feel bad for him. He's a freaking Emmy nominee, and the first nominee for Lead Actor the show's had since, I don't know, maybe MacDonald Carey? Use the damn man!
I'm glad he's having scenes with Lexie though. I love when Lexie is involved with her DiMera family members.
With him working less, I have to wonder if the fight for the DiMera empire storyline is going to dwindle down to nothing as well. And if that happens, could Joseph Mascolo be out the door soon...again?
|Sep 29 2008, 12:47 PM Post #12
I agree with the first thing you said, completely. It looked like we were about to see a story about the fight for the DiMera empire, and then all of a sudden, John and EJ are taken out of that element and thrown into other story branches. Why? I understand that it's nice to see the characters involved in other things, rather than isolated into one story, but if you're going to show these other stories, please focus on the DiMera empire fight storyline as well. It's not that hard.
As to the second thing you mentioned about Stefano proposing to Kate and then that being dropped and her getting lung cancer and not a thought about Stefano's proposal, I think that has more to do with the creative clashing that was goin on behind the scenes. You can totally tell that there were two different outlines being written, and we're starting to fully get into that second one and all reminents of the first one are being phased out (Lucas and Chloe, Trent Robbins, the fight for the DiMera empire, a possible Stefano and Kate hook up, etc.).
|Sep 29 2008, 01:06 PM Post #13
Nothing would surprise me anymore.
I don't understand why they refuse to take advantage of Thaao and Leann's talent either, but I'm not even going to try to apply logic to Corday anymore. It just doesn't work.
|Sep 29 2008, 03:03 PM Post #14
I can buy that.
Kate's one of my favorites. It's just a tad disconcerting to have her in that scene, and it completely go away as if it didn't happen. It would have been nice to have her say 'no' and put it to rest. I agree they must just have dropped it like it never happened. Stefano would have invited her to the dinner party if she was even considering I'd think.
I'll assume she told him she can't have any more children, and he dropped her. Otherwise, she'd be in a cage.
I hope the Dimera Empire fight isn't completely gone, but I think you're right. I just can't get over how much ferocity Tony had, and now it's just gone. Very disappointing. I just hope they are getting settled and will include Tanna long term.

Queen Hoochie
When we (the hoochies) talked to Thaao in Burlington, he was excited because the DiMera storyline was going to be big. He said it would unfold in 3 phases. I won't say what they are. Don't want to get him in trouble in case they decide to do it. And he said he was going to be involved in the Autism storyline. Things have changed since everyone came back from the shutdown. I'm assuming the new writer may have something to do with it.
Yeah, Thaao's the first lead male nominee since SN in 1988. They are basically killing his chances of repeating.
I thought the apron thing was funny. Thaao seemed to be enjoying it. He had a shit eating grin the entire time.
|Sep 29 2008, 10:50 PM Post #16
|I hope Tony and Anna get more to enjoy when all the dust settles from the backstage changes..they really have been doing a wonderful job with the material they've gotten since Stefano's return..
|Sep 30 2008, 09:19 PM Post #17
Queen Hoochie
I thought the scenes in the hospital were wonderful too. The eppy with Tony and Stefano's fight was one of the most intense ones of the year.
If anyone wants more of them, you have to start writing the show. I did today. I'm so tired of Thaao being screwed over.
|Oct 1 2008, 07:51 AM Post #18
This was my underestanding too that the DiMera war was going to be heating up ... but it has fizzled - James S mentioned in an interview that there has been a shake up and a directional change and that for his character even though EJ is on canvas now that future s/l for EJ is uncertain and he has no idea where they are going with EJ in the long term. So much uncertainty! I kind of wish Andre would come back from the dead! That would give Thaao some meaty material!
Boy I hope this whole "Who killed Trent Robbins" ends quickly - It gets a big "who cares from me"!
|Oct 1 2008, 09:05 AM Post #19
Not surprised they sort of changed around the war story. I imagine it was more of a Scott thing or Tomlin/Chris didn't like it. I just hope that these shake-ups stop soon and Corday, Higley, Tomlin, and Chris figure out where they want to take the characters.
|Oct 1 2008, 09:14 AM Post #20
|Just watch they will backburn brilliant actors like Thaao and Joe M and we will have scene after scene with the Passion's Peck Pair.

After the success of "Blade Runner – The Aquarelle Edition", Swedish artist Anders Ramsell is back with a new short film:
With his watercolor interpretation of the sci-fi classic "Blade Runner", Anders Ramsell gained fame both in his homeland as well as internationally. Now he presents the animated short "genderness" which he has written, directed and animated in watercolor.
"genderness" will see its world premiere at the Beverly Hills Film Festival held in Los Angeles April 6 to 10. The film deals with thoughts about being what is sometimes referred to as intergender – an identity that is mixed between man and woman – a third gender.
From left to right: Artist Anders Ramsell, the legendary actor Rutger Hauer and renowned Swedish guitarist Janne Schaffer who performs the soundtrack.
– My film is an exploration of a bee hive that doesn't like bees, or even itself for that matter. It would rather be human and thus transformed. For me it's a metaphor for choosing to be either man or woman … just to realize that I don't really have to make that choice, I can be both, says Anders Ramsell.
Janne Schaffer soundtrack musician – actor Rutger Hauer is the
narrator. The half hour long "Blade Runner – The Aquarelle Edition" was exhibited at The Nordic Watercolor Museum on the West coast of Sweden as well as at Stockholm's Liljevalchs Spring Salon in 2012. The movie got international attention and became something of an internet phenomenon. Rutger Hauer, who played one of the leading roles in the original film, contacted Anders after he saw "Blade Runner – The Aquarelle Edition". This lead to Hauer doing the narration in "genderness". The soundtrack is performed by renowned Swedish guitarist Janne Schaffer.

LOL! I'm really impressed with your hatred for this guy. Haha.
Anyway I actually recall this game. I was watching it on TV. If I'm not mistaken this was during their playoff series back in 2004. It seemed that KG had no intention of throwing a punch, but Anthony Peeler did. Peeler pulled off a cowardly move which KG wasn't expecting. He surprised KG actually. And to think that they used to be teammates. An aftermath pic would show that KG was unfazed afterwards, more of shocked and struggling to control his rage. LOL. KG was MVP that year and he was smart enough not to engage in any ploy Sacramento had to take him out of the series. This replay was shown several times during that game and for the entire week. Too bad they lost to LA in the Conference Finals. Was rooting for them especially because of Spree.

Today, a bird got into the walls of my house through a hole. I located where it was by following the chirping and scratching sounds, and drilled a hole to get it out. I pulled out the drill, only to find the drill bit bloody. Suddenly, no more chirps. FML

Airplane scare
"Okay," I say, keeping my voice from shaking. Were they monitoring me in the airport? What did I say?
"Bring your passport," the guard says. Why would I need my passport to ID a bag? Not a good sign.
I feel around my jacket for my passport. "Hurry up," he says.
"OK, OK," I say as calmly as I can. Is this all because I took that photo of security?
I look at Emily and want to say, "If I don't come back..." but I don't say anything.
We leave the airplane and head back toward the gate. Halfway up the skyway is a small group with a bag. It isn't mine or Emily's. "This isn't my bag." I say.
"Are you sure?" another guy says. My mind is racing. What is in this bag? Are they trying to pin something on me? I start backing toward the plane, not wanting to get too far away from it.
"It isn't my bag. I'm getting back on the plane." I say and turn away, walking briskly toward the plane. I am completely terrified and half expect them to grab me from behind. When they don't I breathe a massive sigh of relief.
"It wasn't my bag," I say to Emily and the flight attendant.
I wonder about the exchange all the way back to New York. I am so thankful when we make it through immigration and are standing waiting for our bags. We wait. And wait...
One of our bags never makes it. A quick check with the Delta fellow explains that we checked three bags in China and only two made it on the plane.
I laugh and wonder if those guards were trying to help find my bag that was supposed to be there. I wonder if what they were going to say was "I'm sorry, sir. What does your bag look like? We will try to find it." Was the whole thing just lost in translation?
On the flip side, the bag that didn't make it through had a camera in it and all of the photos from the trip. Did they want to review that stuff before letting it leave the country?
How quickly your mind spins paranoid stories of government manipulation. Our bag showed up a few days later. As far as I could tell all of the stuff is there. But who knows.

Staying within the realm of reality and ignoring the ridiculously outlandish, yet very plausible rumours can be tricky. Here are eight of the more substantial stories that will have some merit when summer comes around.

The Commercial Club of Jefferson City (forerunner of the Jefferson City Chamber of Commerce) was composed of leading business men, the purpose of the organization being to encourage and assist in movements to advance the material, social and educational interests of the city. The initial meeting of this organization was held April 6, 1893, with A.P. Grimshaw temporary chairman and John G. Lewis temporary secretary. April 21, 1893, Mr. A.P. Grimshaw was elected to the office of President and F. H. Binder, Vice-President. The first Board of Directors, nine in number, were A.P. Grimshaw, W.W. Wagner, R. Dallmeyer, W.A. Dallmeyer, F.H. Binder, J.P. Porth, H.W. Ewing, John G. Lewis and Lester S. Parker, who then elected John G. Lewis Secretary of the club and Jesse W. Henry Treasurer.
Records show the organization was one of the first of its kind in the state and it and its successors contributed tremendously to the progress and permanency of the community. In the early days, the organization functioned to keep the capital from being moved elsewhere.
The organization engineered and was the means of carrying through the building of the first Jefferson City bridge across the Missouri River, the county court house and the sewerage system. In fact, almost every move to advance the material interests of the city was conceived and pushed to completion by this organization.
In 1900, they maintained a suite of club rooms on the west half of the second floor of Merchants Bank at the corner of High and Jefferson.
|The Reception Hall
|The Reception Parlors
|The Rooms
By 1912 the club rooms were located in City Hall where the board met at 11 a.m. on Tuesdays. They had 482 members and met each Thursday for lunch at Clarke's Café. The organization had been a factor in the following activities:
The club's slogan, "The Hub of the State of Missouri".

Woman arrested for stabbing man after feet insult
Police found the man with a steak knife sticking out of his back, buried a few inches in
Associated Press
EVERETT, Wash. — Prosecutors in Washington state say an 18-year-old woman stabbed a 19-year-old man for teasing her that her feet smelled. The Herald of Everett reported the man was found by police with a steak knife sticking out of his back, buried a few inches in. His lung had collapsed. Officials said he'll recover.
Charging papers said trouble started when Dallas Amber Smith was drinking and hanging out with friends and was challenged to do a back flip. When she took off her shoes to do the back flip, the teasing started.
Smith had no criminal history. She faces charges of second-degree assault with a deadly weapon.

American Civil Liberties Union
This article is part of the Tobacco portal on Sourcewatch funded from 2006 - 2009 by the American Legacy Foundation.
The American Civil Liberties Union, commonly known as the ACLU, was founded in 1920 by a group of citizens which included Roger Baldwin, Crystal Eastman, and Albert DeSilver. The ACLU describes itself as "our nation's guardian of liberty, working daily in courts, legislatures and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties guaranteed to all people in this country by the Constitution and laws of the United States."
Tha ACLU has been particularly active in cases involving the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Eighth Amendments of the US Constitution. On the First Amendment, it tends to favor reduced restrictions on speech and greater separation of church and state. On the Fourth Amendment, it tends to favor increased protections on citizen's privacy; and on the Fifth and Eighth Amendment, it favors increased rights of the accused.
The ACLU is not particularly active in cases involving the Second or Tenth Amendments. It states that the Second Amendment is "primarily a collective right" to bear arms, not an individual one. It does not appear to have had much involvement with attempts to invoke the Tenth Amendment to limit the power of the federal government.
- Anthony Romero - Executive Director
- Al Bronstein - Former Executive Director
Besides individual memberships, the ACLU has also taken or solicited funds from various organizations. Some anti-tobacco activists have criticized the organization for quietly taking funds from the tobacco industry.
The ACLU has been strongly criticized by corporate accountability activists for using its resources to advance corporate claims to enjoy Bill of Rights protections. Its advocacy for the Nike Corporation in the Kasky vs Nike lawsuit is a recent example.
Staff and Leaders
Accessed October 2007: [1]
- Nadine Strossen, President of the ACLU
- Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director
- Dorothy M. Ehrlich, Deputy Executive Director
- Karen Curry, Communications Director
- Caroline Fredrickson, Director of the Washington Legislative Office
- Donna McKay, Director of Development
- Geri E. Rozanski, Director of Affiliate Support
- Steven Shapiro, Legal Director of the ACLU
Tobacco industry
Tobacco industry documents reveal that the industry considered ACLU to be an ally in fighting legislation and regulations to limit smoking. In a January, 1988 briefing to the Chair of the Institute by Samuel D. Chilcote, Jr., President of the Tobacco Institute, Chilcote described how the Institute successfully "defeated or postponed 93 percent of all the bills we faced [between 1979 and 1987]..." He also stated, "A very wide assortment of non-tobacco groups now routinely speak out on our behalf on every issue we face. They testify at hearings, write letters to legislators and to editors, hold press conferences, provide intelligence, help us expand our ranks, and some have even helped fund our efforts....Our allies include labor unions, farm groups, veterans and active military associations, racial and ethnic minorities, fire fighters, the ACLU..."

My sister called tonight to say that my dad was ill. I spoke to him yesterday to wish him a Happy Father's Day. He was too ill to drive down. I could tell he wasn't feel well at all. Neither one of us are able to talk when really feeling badly so it was a conversation filled with silences. We both understood though. I got off the phone with a bad feeling in my gut but shook it off thinking it was related to the whole Tim Russert thing on Friday. I kept telling myself he just has "a stomach bug."
Turns out it's something more but what it is isn't clear at this point. He both has and doesn't have symptoms of a bladder infection but last night was awakened by bad pain. My dad isn't one to complain about pain so when he talks about it you know he hurts. They went to the doctor today and saw his oncologist who ran a bunch of tests but didn't put him on any antibiotics. Just gave them a prescription for vicoden, and scheduled an MRI for Friday. Friday is too far away. Apparently the doctor doesn't want to start any antibiotics because it might interfere with the something he "needs to see on the MRI." Wha? How can antibiotics interfere with an MRI? I'm not impressed with his doctor's but I don't trust doctor's readily given what happened with my mom. My dad's wife called his doctor again this evening because my dad's pain was increasing, even with the vicoden.
My dad is in bed and can't talk because he's in so much pain. This is so unlike my dad that it frightens me. The fact that he's in bed itself is a statement of how bad he feels. It breaks my heart to think of him in that much pain and discomfort. I wish I could be there to help LuAnn out. She broke her wrist last week. They live almost 3 hours away. I wish I could be there with my dad.
It makes me more pissed off at this damn illness that it renders me so powerless to help my family. If I have to I'll take Provigil and drive up there. They are more important than anything, damn it.
If you read this and believe in prayer, please pray for him. And for all of us. We need him.

As we enter the conclusion of our three-part series on content strategy, you should already know what your audience believes about the world and have a narrative mapped out that will allow you to confirm your audience's worldviews.
Now it's time to explain the final piece of the content strategy puzzle. This piece creates an emotional connection between you and your audience. It's a component that makes your audience think: "Hey, they get me. They understand me. They know what I'm thinking and feeling."
I'm talking, of course, about empathy — the ability to identify with and vicariously experience the thoughts, feelings, and attitudes of someone else.
But how do you incorporate that ability into your marketing? And why does this process help create a memorable brand?

Strange photosynthesis on strange worlds
Sara Seager, Andras and Zsom and I have published our paper on photosynthesis on planets with hydorgen atmospheres. Exoplanet searches have found anew class of planet - "Super Earths" - not seen in our solar system. Bigger than Earth but smaller then Neptune, these worlds could hold an atmosphere dominated by hydrogen. On such planets, life would have to take methane and turn it into biomass, unlike the Earthly process of photosynthesis that takes carbon dioxide and build plants (which we then eat). Our paper shows that this is possible, actually uses less energyt han terrestrial photosynthesis, can use infra-red light, and astonishingly can take place on planets as far from their star as Saturn is from the Sun. Plants on such worlds would make hydrogen, not oxygen, which would make then hard to detect from afar, but is not imcompatible with the evolution of complex life.

Some scientists using advanced computer models now argue that if we want to stop the Earth from warming, the amount of carbon we should be emitting is ... none. None? As in, zero? As in, shutting down the global industrial economy? After all, global energy demand is expected to accelerate until at least 2020. Yet attempts even to slow the rate of increase of carbon emissions have paralyzed world politics for more than a decade.BHUVAN CHAND JUYALhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

Top 2 Things to Do Before You Die
1. Take a Romantic Hot Air Balloon Ride - I'm not sure that this will ever happen since Fred is scared of heights, but I would like to at least get in a balloon and take a picture.
2. Go for a gondola ride in Venice, Italy with Fred and kiss under the Bridge of Sighs - I've been on a gondola ride twice in Venice, but never with someone special. The belief is that if you kiss your special someone underneath the bridge, you will have everlasting love. While the story may not be true, it would still be super romantic.
I'd also like to become a mother, stomp on grapes, and visit Egypt, Brazil, Ireland, Israel, Australia, Germany and many others.
So, what do you want to do before you die? Visit Taylor and tell us.

Simulated and live practice teaching: the practice teacher's craft
Doel, M and Shardlow, SM 1996, 'Simulated and live practice teaching: the practice teacher's craft' , Social Work Education, 15 (4) , pp. 16-33.Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)
The paper considers the assertion that students can learn how to practise exclusively through simulations, without working with real clients. The authors look at the benefits and difficulties of both live and simulated practice for the student's learning, and discuss two fallacies which, if left unchallenged, could threaten the existing arrangements for practice learning in social work. Finally, the paper describes practice teaching in terms of a craft. This paper was first presented to a Conference of practice teachers and it preserves some of its original informality.

There's an unspoken bond of trust between reader and author. If it's in print, we think, it must be true. But that's not necessarily so. Literary hoaxes have been foisted on us since the 5th century BCE, when Dionysius the Renegade wrote a play called Parthenopaeus and passed it off as the work of Sophocles. Dionysius's motive was to make a fool of his rival, Heraclides. These days, the motive behind literary hoaxes is usually money.
One literary form in which fakery has been especially rampant is the memoir or autobiography. This is my life, an author says, and who's going to say it isn't? But readers, perhaps jaded as a result of having been tricked so many times before, no longer take memoirs at face value, and a number of them have been proven to be partially or wholly untrue. In some cases, even the author doesn't exist. Here's a list of our top confirmed modern-day memoir hoaxes.
In 2001 Simon & Schuster published a book called The Honored Society by a man calling himself Michael Gambino and claiming to be the illegitimate grandson of Mafioso Carlo Gambino. In the book, the author writes of his life as a gangster, including twelve years in prison for murder, bribery, pimping, gambling, extortion, kidnapping and money laundering. Carlo Gambino's real grandson Thomas exposed the book as a fake written by a man named Michael Pellegrino, who had earlier served time for theft and impersonating an FBI agent.
In her runaway bestseller Mutant Message Down Under, Marlo Morgan wrote of time spent with Aboriginals in Australia. Various Aboriginal groups protested and claims were made that Morgan may never actually have set foot in Australia and had made up large portions of the book. Now the book is clearly marked as fiction.
In the late eighties, a memoir called Satan's Underground by Lauren Stratford told of the author's upbringing in a Satanic cult. She was a breeder, producing babies who were murdered in snuff films and sacrificed by Satanists before her eyes. After investigators dismissed her claims as complete fabrications, Stratford (real name Laurel Rose Willson), undaunted, reinvented herself as Laura Grabowski, a survivor of Mengele's experiments at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp.
Memoirs of harrowing upbringings are a popular subgenre in the world of faux memoirs. One of the best known is Go Ask Alice by Anonymous, published in 1971. It's supposedly the diary of a 15-year-old girl who died of a drug overdose in the late sixties. The author, purported to be the book's "editor," Beatrice Sparks, certainly had the world fooled. The New York Times called the book "a document of horrifying reality and literary quality." But in a later interview, Sparks claimed Go Ask Alice had been based on the diary of one of her patients but that Sparks had added material based on her work with other patients. To this day, no one claiming to have known the real "Alice" has ever been found.
In another famous youth memoir, a girl who is part Native American and part Caucasian writes of growing up as a foster child in South-Central Los Angeles. In Love and Consequences, published in early 2008, Margaret B. Jones writes that she ran drugs and carried illegal guns for the Bloods; her brother was shot to death by the Crips. The New York Times called the book "humane and deeply affecting." That may have been true, but it was also completely made up by one Margaret Seltzer, a young white woman who grew up with her natural family in affluent Sherman Oaks. In radio interviews she spoke in African American Vernacular English, referring to her alleged gang buddies as her "homies."
In the mid-nineties a teenage boy known as JT (for Jeremy "Terminator") LeRoy gained attention by publishing short stories and communicating with older writers by fax, email and phone. JT was a transgendered, homosexual, drug-addicted teenager who had been forced by his abusive mother into prostitution. In 1999 he published a novel called Sarah. A critical success, the book gained him celebrity friendships. However, almost no one had actually ever seen JT, and those few encounters were always very short—attributed to JT's extreme shyness. Around 2001 he began appearing in public, but he wore a hat, wig and dark sunglasses. More books appeared. One of them, The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things, was being turned into a film.
Then a writer named Stephen Beachy published an article in New York Magazine asking whether JT LeRoy was a real person, and proposing that he was in fact the pseudonym of 39-year-old woman named Laura Albert, who had supposedly taken JT off the streets and let him live with her and her husband. Invariably she was with JT at his appearances, and JT's earnings were always paid to members of Albert's family.
But who was the person appearing as JT in public? More damaging pieces appeared, including one in The New York Times exposing the public JT as Savannah Knoop, the half-sister of Laura's ex-husband. Laura was revealed as the real author of the JT LeRoy books. In 2007 she was convicted of fraud and ordered to pay reparations for signing legal documents in the name of her fictional persona.
In 1976 a writer named Forrest Carter published The Education of Little Tree, an account of growing up among the Cherokee Indians. As it turned out, the author was actually Asa Earl Carter, a former white supremacist.
Approximately 25 years later an author named Nasdijj published The Blood Runs Like a River Through My Dreams and two other novels recounting details of the author's life: his Navajo heritage, his abusive parents, and growing up to become the father of an adopted child with fetal alcohol syndrome and another who is HIV-positive. "Unfailingly honest and very nearly perfect," Esquire called The Blood Runs. But honest it was not. The author, real name Timothy Patrick Barrus, had made it all up.
Another popular subgenre of made-up memoirs are those set against the ghastliness of the Holocaust. In 1996 Shocken Books published Fragments: Memories of a Wartime Childhood by Binjamin Wilkomirski. "Stunning," The New York Times called the book, which received major literary prizes in the US, France and Britain. In the book the author writes of internment in not one but two concentration camps. In the late 1990s a Swiss journalist exposed the memoir as a fake by a man named Bruno Dössekker who had fabricated his Holocaust-survivor past.
Misha: A Mémoire of the Holocaust Years was published by Misha Defonseca in 1997. In it the author tells the story of walking nearly two thousand miles across Europe in search of her deported parents, killing a German officer in self-defense and being adopted by a pack of wolves. The bestseller was translated into 19 languages and made into a film. But in early 2008, after much speculation as to the book's authenticity, Defonseca (real name Monique de Wael) admitted publicly that the memoir was made up. The story, she said, "is not actual reality, but was my reality, my way of surviving." There were moments, she said, when she "found it difficult to differentiate between what was real and what was part of my imagination."
Finally, there is Angel at the Fence: The True Story of a Love That Survived by Herman Rosenblat. In it he tells of his imprisonment in the Buchenwald concentration camp, and of a nine-year-old girl on the outside who would throw him food over an electrified fence. Years later they would meet accidentally on a blind date and marry. Rosenblat appeared twice on The Oprah Winfrey Show; she called Angel at the Fence "the single greatest love story, in 22 years of doing this show, we've ever told on the air." However, shortly before the book's publication, its main events were discovered to be false. Publication was cancelled. Ironically, though Rosenblat's story of the apple girl was invented, he is an authentic Holocaust survivor.
Oprah was also taken in by James Frey's hugely successful A Million Little Pieces, the author's grueling memoir of drug addiction and recovery (including root canals without anesthesia for fear of an addictive reaction to Novocain). When it was revealed that Frey had exaggerated many of the book's key elements, Oprah had both the author and his editor, Nan Talese, as guests on her show. She blasted them. David Carr wrote in The New York Times: "Both Mr. Frey and Ms. Talese were snapped in two like dry winter twigs."
Norma Khouri cashed in on the world's growing interest in the Middle East when in 2003 she published Forbidden Love (also published as Honor Lost), the purported story of her best friend, Dalia, a Jordanian woman who fell in love with a Christian soldier. When Dalia's Muslim father learns of the relationship, he stabs Dalia to death in an "honor killing." A year after publication it was discovered that Khouri had made the whole story up. Khouri, however, still insists her memoir is true.
Perhaps the best-known memoir hoax is the one perpetrated by Clifford Irving and Richard Suskind when they created a fraudulent autobiography of the reclusive Howard Hughes. The two men believed Hughes would never draw attention to himself by denouncing their book. Irving forged letters from Hughes and used them to convince publisher McGraw-Hill to offer a hefty contract. But Irving and Suskind had been wrong about Hughes. He went public, saying he had never even met Clifford Irving. Irving, his wife Edith and Suskind were indicted for fraud. Irving spent 17 months in prison, Suskind five months. Later Irving published a book called The Hoax in which he detailed his and Suskind's scheme in detail. In 2007 a film version of The Hoax was released, starring Richard Gere as Irving, Alfred Molina as Suskind and Marcia Gay Harden as Edith.
No one will argue that the authors of these fake or partially fake memoirs aren't talented writers. Each of the books above will provide you with hours of lively entertainment. Just keep in mind that for the most part, they're pure fiction.

After being stopped by a police marine unit for speeding and operating too close to a boat at anchor, he was arrested and charged with boating while intoxicated. He was also charged with four counts of endangering the welfare of a child; he had four children on board — ages 7, 10, 10 and 13 — while operating a boat in an intoxicated condition.
Mr. Gilman was held overnight and later arraigned in Shelter Island Justice Court, Judge Helen J. Rosenblum presiding. He was released on cash bail of $1,500 and instructed to return to court at a later date.

The month of June has not been very friendly to the Phillies, and it would be more of the same today as they lost a second straight game to the Marlins 3-2.
– So far this season, the Miami Marlins have owned Cole Hamels. In his first two starts against them, Hamels posted an 0-2 record and a 6.00 ERA. Today he looked more like himself.
– In the first inning, Giancarlo Stanton hit a missile out to left field, and it looked like Hamels may be in for another tough outing against the Fish. It was frustrating because the homer came with two outs and the bases empty. Stanton would once again get Hamels in the third with two outs when he doubled to score Jose Reyes and give the Marlins the lead for good.
– Hamels pitched great today. He didn't have a dominant outing with a ton of strikeouts (5 Ks), but he allowed three runs over seven innings. With a modest offensive effort, those type of numbers from your starter are almost always good for a win. Unfortunately, the offense wasn't up to the task this afternoon.
– Coming into today's game, Mark Buehrle had an ERA north of 5.50 when facing the Phillies this season. He was a pitcher who the Phillies had hit around in beating him both times he faced them. It seemed as though all the Phils would have to do was show up and do their thing, and a victory would be in the cards. Unfortunately, they didn't show up. It was a lethargic, hapless effort from the bats. It wasn't as though they wasted a lot of opportunities either. They left six men on base, but, despite that number, they really didn't seem to threaten Buehrle all that much. It seemed to me like they weren't in the game mentally and just mailed it in. That's the first time I've gotten that impression from this team in a long, long time. They'd score a run on a sacrifice fly from Shane Victorino and a Hunter Pence home run. They'd strand the tying run on second base in the ninth inning. Not great.
– Coming into this series with the Phillies, the Marlins had dropped 17 of their last 21 games. They were in a free fall in the standings. It seemed as though the Phillies could really gain some momentum if they could take two of three or even sweep the series. Now they're trying to avoid a sweep.
– The Phillies are now 9-19 in the month of June. No matter what happens the rest of the way, this month could very well be the one that defines their season. If they get hot after the All Star break and end up missing the playoffs by a game or two, this month will stand out more than any other.
– The Phillies are now just 10-16 against the N.L. East this year. It's cliche, but good baseball teams win against their division. It's something the team has done the last five years, and it's something they'll need to start doing again if they want to make a run at this thing.
– During the game today, Jim Salisbury tweeted that the Phillies and Orioles are in serious discussions regarding Jim Thome. As of now, nothing is imminent. But it makes sense for the Phillies to deal Thome, so this something to monitor over the next few days.
– The Phillies are now a season-high eight games under .500. It's the furthest back in the standings they've been since June 2006.

Phillies just traded Gentlemen Jim. May he fare well.
yea big ed i heard. whatta you gonna do though? ya know. it seems like more and more every day the phils ship is dead in the water. may as well have him play for someone with a better shot than us. hopefully this is the start of more moves to retool for next year. i hope the next move is cholly, then kendrick. sad to see jimbo go but i give him my best.
And they got these 2 in return.
RHP KYLE SIMON and CA GABRIEL LINO.
How funny is it that people here thoguht theyd like get a #3 starter for him?
Good luck to Jim.
At least now he on a team with a chance.
I guess no one else wants a new GM and manager.
I do!!!!!!!
Andrew, you'll have to find the postings where "people here" thought Thome would bring back a starting pitcher. I don't recall anyone saying that. The Twins didn't get anything back when they traded Thome to Cleveland last season, why would anyone think he had value this season?
Jeff I can barely read. And actually dont most of the stuff.
But when he was rolling as the DH in inter league games.
People were saying how he is a better DH than most people in the AL have.
And they thought they would get value in a trade.
At the time I politely told them he has no value. But these people dont realize Howard Utley and Rollins have no value also. Lee getting close to no value too.
It was me trying to educate people. Which I try not to do as much.
Because its pointless. I cant do it.
But yes people here thought he had real trade value.
They also think Howard is a premier power hitter baseball.
Yea I may be an asshole.
I dont lie though.
Can you educate ME, Andrew?
I just got back – saw the end of the game and does it ever look familiar. Pence and Victorino end the game in silence.
Pence and Victorino – again. Familiar tune, same results.
What gets my goat is the Marlins have been dreadful all month until the Phillies came to town. That Ozzie Guillen is obnoxious and he is sitting in the dugout laughing.
Pence also got picked off first. To go with his bad fielding.
When chooch got the hit in the 9th he should have stopped at first instead of the double then Pence wouldnt have to hit with a RISP.
But pence is also with chooch the only 2 guys hitting right now.
Thus ends an 8-19 June.
Pour a drink Brooks and enjoy yourself.
