All-cash home buyers increase
Cash is king. And the king is making his presence felt in the housing market, which showed its first expansion of the year last month.
Cash purchases, which usually make up about a quarter of home sales, have soared to about 40 percent nationwide, The Washington Post reported, citing research firm CoreLogic.
Wealthy people, foreigners and retirees are transforming markets across the United States with these all-cash deals. And their timing is good for the market because they are helping to make up for a shortage of first-time buyers who are struggling to save for a down payment or qualify for a loan. That is a cause of grave concern about the long-term health of the market and its prospects for a true recovery.
The potential yield from rents is what attracted investors to the housing sector once the market hit bottom in late 2011. In areas where home prices plunged, investors began snapping up foreclosures and other deeply discounted properties, betting they could rent them for a tidy profit. The buying frenzy helped clear the excess supply of homes on the market and boost prices. It also frustrated first-time buyers who could not compete because their offers included financing contingencies, appraisals and inspections.

Record Store Day 2014: Temples/Jagwar Ma, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard and TOY
We're really excited to announce that we're putting out three excellent 12″ releases for this year's Record Store Day (19th April).
On 12″ picture discs we have a remix swap between Temples (James's first ever remix!) and our friends Jagwar Ma, plus a track from Australia's King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard which is just genius and previously only available on their sold-out 2013 album 'Float Along — Fill Your Lungs'. We're releasing it because we love it. Plus on 12″ we have TOY's 'Join The Dubs', previously only released as a limited bonus CD. Find more details on each release below, plus scroll right to the bottom to stream the full soundcloud set!
HVN282 Temples / Jagwar Ma 'Shelter Song/ Man I Need' — 12" picture disc (1000 pressings)
A. Shelter Song (Jagwar Ma Jono's Wrong Mix)
AA. Man I Need (Temples remix)
Following on from last year's Heavenly remix trade between TOY and The Horrors for Record Store Day, this year Heavenly releases another dream remix swap: Jagwar Ma's Jono Ma reworks Temples' debut single 'Shelter Song' and Temples' James Bagshaw takes on Jagwar Ma single 'Man I Need' for his first ever remix. Picture disc artwork by Oliver Hibert.
HVN281 King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard 'Head On/Pill' — 12″ picture disc (300 pressings)
A. Head On / Pill
Hailing from Australia, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are a seven strong collective who, by their own admission are 'absolutely fried theremin wielding psychopaths'. 'Head On/Pill' is lifted from the band's third album 'Float Along – Fill Your Lungs' out on Flightless records in Australia, but such is the thrilling slacker genius of this 16 minute epic we had to ask if we could put it out as a Heavenly Release for Record Store Day. Picture disc artwork by Oliver Hibert.
HVN273 TOY 'Join The Dubs' — 12″ vinyl (1000 pressings)
1. Join The Dots (dub)
2. As We Turn (dub)
1. You Won't Be The Same (dub)
2. Left To Wander (dub)
3. Conductor (dub)
Previously only released as a limited bonus CD, 'Join The Dubs' presents five tracks from TOY's second album 'Join The Dots' that have been playfully and knowingly re-worked by Dan Carey, exploring the darker and dubbier depths of his desk. Dan has also produced both of TOY's albums to date.
Record Store Day 2014 takes place on 19th April. All Heavenly releases will be available from participating UK stores. See here for details

The MOTU 24 I/O CORE PCIX - 24-Channel 24/96 TRS Jack
Interface. Highly respected, Ultra compatible, 24 Input / 24 Output
Hard Disc Recording System for Mac and PC.
The MOTU 24 I/O CORE interface fulfills the promise of
host-based hard disk recording: to record, edit, mix process, and
master multitrack recording projects entirely inside the computer.
It provides 24 high quality, 24-bit/96kHz analog inputs and outputs
in a cost effective, single rack space package, allowing you to
connect and record from 24 simultaneous analog sources. In addition
to the interface, the system includes the PCI-424 card and
Audiodesk workstation software. The MOTU 24 I/O CORE interface
front panel is essentially a dedicated meter bridge. Audio activity
for every input and output is represented by a dedicated
five-segment LED bar graph. The 24 analog inputs and outputs are
1/4 inch jack TRS connectors operating at either -10dB or +4dB
(balanced/unbalanced,) and the input level can be switched via
software in banks of eight inputs. The 24I/O interface provides
word clock sync on a single BNC connector that can be programmed
for input or output via software. The MOTU 24 I/O CORE system uses
second generation AudioWire protocol, a high-bandwidth digital
audio format capable of carrying up to 24 channels of 96kHz digital
audio in and out of the computer at the same time. The included
PCI-424 card features a powerful DSP chip dedicated to creating a
custom tailored monitor mix of up to 96 channels of 96kHz audio.
Because the mixing takes place on the card itself, instead of
making the round trip from the PCI bus to the host processor, the
system provides near-zero latency performance. Up to four audio
interfaces (which are hot swappable) can be connected to a PCI-424
in any combination
The main features of the MOTU 24 I/O CORE include:

Love is in the air… and also in the streets. This week is not only about the "typical" Valentine's Day activities: watching couples holding hands; boyfriends walking their girlfriends to class; eating lunch together; laughs; kisses; free hugs; people sending flowers, chocolates and love notes to their secret friend; and, of course, Instagram and Facebook pictures all over the place to show some love.
Most importantly, these are the days were you can share the love in your fashion choices. Red dresses, floral skinny jeans, pink skirts, white shirts with hearts and cute flats with bows and stones are taking over the sidewalks of campus. Oh, so in love with love, right?
For me, Valentine's Day was always about celebrating friendship with amazing parties. But this year I'm happy to say I will celebrate it with my incredible boyfriend by my side. He always treats me like a princess, so to make our first Valentine's Day worth it, I thought I should do doing something special and significant for him. We both have classes all day, but as soon as I get out of school, I'll start cooking dinner (which I never do, not even for myself). I'm planning to decorate the table with Valentine's decorations and candles. After dinner, we'll give each other our gifts and probably go to the movies. We are cinema freaks!
To celebrate the day, I will be wearing a pink scuba skirt from NASTY GAL with a white button-down shirt, a statements necklace, black Jeffrey Campbell platforms and, of course, the signature red lips to make the whole look more sassy.
Here is a list of five things I'm loving right now:
- Tim Gunn's Fashion Bible: The Fashion Guru knows best. I keep reading this book over and over again for inspiration. Love.
- Red Nikon D3100: I recently got this camera and I just love the quality of the pictures. It's like my new toy. Love.
- MAC lip gloss: I always carry it in my bag. It keeps my lips moisturized without being sticky. My favorite one is a natural soft cocoa tone. It goes with everything. Love.
- Denim shirts: Not just because of the trend, but I want to wear denim shirts all the time. For a morning class, I pair it with pastel skinnies and oxfords. For a night out, I wear mine with a mini skirt, a gold necklace and heels. Love.
- Prada Candy: My boyfriend gave me this perfume for Christmas and I'm obsessed! I don't want it to end. Love.
What are some things you are loving this February? Be sure to share your love on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #CFLove!

Elsa Nunez '70
It may have been fate that brought Elsa Nunez '70 to the presidency of Eastern Connecticut State University (ECSU) nearly six years ago. When the Puerto Rican-born daughter of immigrant factory workers took the top post at the public liberal arts university, she was unaware of the reason for the area's large Latino population.
It wasn't until she began researching the history of Hispanics in Connecticut that Nunez discovered that many of the people who settled in the town of Willimantic, where the university is located, came from her own hometown of San Sebastián. "There's been a large Puerto Rican population here since the 1920s," she says.
Nunez came to America with her parents when she was six years old. They settled in New Jersey, where she attended high school in Belleville and then continued her education earning a bachelor's degree at Montclair State, a master's from Fairleigh Dickinson, and a doctorate in linguistics from Rutgers. She's been on the faculty at several institutions, and has held administrative positions at universities in New York, Maine, and Massachusetts.
A vocal advocate for bridging the achievement gap in the Latino community, Nunez recently received the Connecticut Latino and Puerto Rican Affairs Commission's Lifetime Achievement Award. "The achievement gap in Connecticut is the worst in the country," she said in her keynote address at the presentation, "and Latino students' academic performance actually gets worse as they progress through school." While Nunez is proud that ECSU has the best retention and graduation rates in the state, she says there is still work to be done.
Nunez credits Montclair State for her successful academic career. "Graduating from Montclair gave me a leg up in life," she says. "I could not have achieved what I have in life if that door was not open for me."
In particular, Nunez is grateful to the late Moe McGee who taught an English course her first semester. "I felt so overwhelmed and intimated," she recalls. "Every day Professor McGee would call out our names for attendance and after he said, 'Elsa Nunez,' he'd say, 'What a beautiful name.' He did this every day. It somehow gave me confidence and the other students started to notice me."
One day, McGee returned a paper Nunez had written. "It had 1,000 red marks on it," she confesses. "He told me to come to his office every Wednesday to work on my writing. He became my mentor. He never said that I had a deficit. Instead, he'd say, 'Elsa, you have a lot of potential.' "
Nunez relates that story each year to her faculty at orientation. "I want them to know that even when they may not know it, they could be making a difference in a student's life."

GM Financial Americredit Ripped Off in the Reinstatement Department Fort Worth Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Due to hart times I fell behind on my car payments. Therefore my vehicle was repossessed. Although, I called to pay them the past due amount, I was routed to an answering machine message in the "reinstatement department". I called regullarly from the time the department opened until the time they closed and left professional sounding messages. However, nobody called me back. Customer service could not help me because they did not have the exact dollar amount I owed and could only keep transferring me to th reinstatement department. The collections department and corporate departments also routed me to the reinstatement department. Meanwhile, late fees, storage fee and rental car fees continue to accrue without apparent resolve. I was told that since there was a holiday, they are behind on their calls.

They are ripping YOU off?
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, February 19, 2014POSTED: Wednesday, February 19, 2014
Ummm....you did not meet your legal obligation in making your payments so they repossessed your car. So how exactly are they ripping you off?
How come it was only after they repossessed your car could you magically come up with not only the back amount due, but the reposession fees. Not only that but apparently have enough money lying around to be able to rent a car.
How come you didn't use that money before they took it?...Oh I know you were gambling and trying to hold them off as long as you could before you had to meet your legal obligation. Unfortunatly you gambled a bit too long and lost.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Date of Stay: June, 2012
This is beautiful park. Lots of space between sites, quiet, no road noise. Good layout; plenty of room to back in, and the sites are shady. All sites have good layer of gravel. The sites back up to a beautiful, clean creek and is good place to swim. The only drawback is the nearby town Marion has nothing to do and very few shops.
Date of Stay: April, 2011
We stayed here in April in site 89. The campground is easy to maneuver in, very clean. The power had brownouts at night not weak enough to trip out AC but lights were dim. The wifi was weak at our site and occasionally lost signal. Our site was a pull through right on the road but the road has very little traffic so only occasional road noise. Good biking roads to beach. Beaches are very clean and not crowded. This is a good place to camp for touring Savannah. It is 12 miles from Savannah but the traffic is not bad and the roads are good. I would stay here again. Be sure to eat at Sweet Potatoes Restaurant when you vist Savannah the food is amazing.
Date of Stay: July, 2010
We camped at A18, at this nice campground. We had plenty of room but no privacy, was right next to the road. The Wi-Fi was in and out, worse in the evenings. Best sites are on the creek, very shady. Biggest problem was power. We noticed our refrigerator kept switching from gas to electric and thought the refrigerator was on the blink. Found out later on a very warm day, there was not enough power to run the AC. Kept tripping the breaker. It was so bad when we used a fan the fan speed went up and down. Won't stay here again unless AC is not needed.
Date of Stay: July, 2009
We stayed here a week in July. This was our 4th time here. It is still a great place sites are much wider and deeper than most. The campground is clean and quiet and has magnificent views. The WiFi and cable had excellent reception.
Date of Stay: October, 2008
It has good proximity to Boone. A lot of pull through sites. Clean and cared for. Sites are on terraces and wider and deeper than normal. There is plenty of room to park a tow vehicle. A beautiful location a lot of trees at campsites with mountains visible from some sites. The staff and store are good with a nice recreation room. The Wi-fi did not work at my site. TV antenna reception not good. it needs cable which is why I rated it at 7. I would stay again.
Date of Stay: August, 2008
Stayed 5 nights in August. Not crowded at all good utilities, good set up, a lot of shaded sites, no road noise, concrete pads most sites, easy to back into, good location to everything, beautiful stream deep enough for kayaks and tubing, lots of fish and ducks. Ice and newspaper on site, good Wi-Fi and cable. Owners obviously take a lot of pride in their site and are very nice. One small drawback the band practiced from noon until evening for a youth service (only 1 day) and the music got a little irritating after 5 hours. Will stay here again.
Date of Stay: July, 2008
We camped in July. Plus: Utilities were good. Easy back in. Concrete pads. Painted picnic tables. Clean fire rings. Best set up of fire rings I have seen won't melt your RV. Gravel where needed. Friendly staff. OK store. You can walk to the upper end of the camp ground, enter the river and tube to the lower end (15 minute ride). Nice. Clean river. Quiet, no road noise. Minus: Overall kind of junky. Most sites are next to a small, shallow tributary of river. However the river is not actually visible except from the extreme East and West sites: big disappointment. Need to trim bushes on tributary so it is visible from campsites. Dam only open on weekdays but water is deep enough to tube anyway. Only 5 channels on cable TV. One thing that was odd was the "NO Trespassing Private Property" signs regarding the river on the lower end of the campground and in the tributary; limits ability to explore river below campground and makes you think there are angry property owners adjacent to campground. Would camp here again if I could not find anywhere else.
Date of Stay: July, 2008
We camped next to the creek, it was clean and beautiful. The sites are spacious, the largest I have ever seen and easy to back into.All utilities were excellent. All sites had gravel and grass, ( no mud to be seen anywhere) even after a morning shower. The park staff was very friendly. The only problem; some jerk 4 sites down thought everyone loved to here his Harley idle as much as he did. The only improvement this campground should make is require all motorcycles to park at the entrance and not allow them into the campground. We camped in Myrtle Beach during motorcycle weekend, the campground we stayed at had the above requirement and we didn't hear a Harley all weekend. It was wonderful.
Date of Stay: June, 2008
We camped here in June on the lake (very large pond). The campground is very clean, good size pool, good security,the camp store is well stocked, utilities are excellent. The owners are friendly and helpful take pride in their campground. The lake sites are a little close but the remainder are roomy and very well laid out. The campground had a fishing tournament and all the kids caught a lot of fish and had a great time.Close to Asheville and Hendersonville. Would stay here again, but not on the lake.
Date of Stay: May, 2008
We camped here on motorcycle weekend; we don't own a motorcycle. We had no problems. The bikes were parked at the entrance and were not allowed in the campground, could not even tell the rally was going on until we left the grounds. Check in was a breeze. The sites are roomy and clean. Bath houses and pools are immaculate. Surprisingly quiet place with little traffic.The only reason I gave less than perfect they charge for the Wi-Fi. We camped on the lake, watch out for the gator. We are going back again this year.
Date of Stay: November, 2007
Beautiful view. Very clean. Very well kept. Owners take pride in facility. Very Friendly. Nice hiking trails. Close to Asheville. Can't wait to go back!
Date of Stay: August, 2007
Sites were very small. Need gravel at sites only bare dirt/mud. Bad road noise constantly from Hwy. 279 Nice stream. Shady locations, Decrepit permanent residence travel trailers, and weird people in them. Their are a lot better sites within 3 miles. Would rather stay home than go back.
Date of Stay: July, 2007
Good sized sites. Small river next to site. Clean campground.
Date of Stay: July, 2007
Beautiful, roaring, clean river next to campsite. Huge boulders all around. Great views. A little tight entering campground but sites have plenty of room. Highly recommended. Book in advance they are always full.

GED Tutoring
GED tutoring and testing is available, free of charge, for all adults without a high school diploma or equivalent.
The Haven Shelter – Idaho Falls
Tutoring is provided by an experienced teacher Monday-Friday from 12:00 to 4:00 pm at The Haven Shelter (2480 S. Yellowstone, Idaho Falls). Availability for GED Ready Testing is provided Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.
Only serious students need attend.
The GED is structured within four different subject matter:
- Language - Reading/Writing
- Science
- Math
- Social Studies
Our GED tutoring program has a fast track design. Students will first take the GED Ready Tests at our classroom. The results will tell the teacher which subjects the student will pass without any tutoring and which subjects need some focus on. GED tests will be scheduled for the subjects the TABE indicates the student can pass. This allows students to have immediate success, increasing the likelihood of completion of the GED.
While all four subjects have to be passed in order to obtain the GED, the fast track design also allows the student to take one test at a time instead of studying for all of them over a long period of time and then taking all four tests together. We believe this is also a valuable benefit that promotes successful completion of the GED.
For more information, call or stop by.

I'm running my mic into a mixer plugged into my soundcard. I have a problem with crackling occuring about 30 seconds into recording. Could this be a sound card issue?
It could be that. It could be that you have it turned up too loud. Make sure that your sound is peaking at -18dbfs in whatever software youre using on your computer. Digital gear does NOT sound good when you push it too much.
If you dont believe me believe these guys...

Well, what I got told was turn the mic volume to nearly off, on my pc. And then compensate from that using the mixer.
As for set up, i'm running a Behringer Xenyx 802 into a stock Dell Sound card. I'm using a shure sm58 as my mic.
Sometimes this is caused by the power management software. Try disabling it.

Yes, that is what I was going to suggest as well. The components on the inside of your computer may be causing interference.

Ok For everyone interested in the next HOW TO swap, we will make the zines 1/4 size, page count however is all up to you, I don't want anyone to feel limited or overwhelmed, but i do agree with Colin try to make your zine more than 4 pages. As for the collaboration zine, I agree too, I would need time and would like them to be done separately as well. I do like the idea of whoever collaborates it making a pdf to print, that's pretty cool and then you could print out copies to give to friends! I'll post up the swap info soon with a deadline of August 31st. Anyone want to handle the collaboration zine?
For the How-To Swap, I don't care if we standardize the size, but if we do 1/4-size sounds fine. I don't feel a need to specify page amounts as long as each one has enough pages to qualify as a booklet & not just a piece of paper folded half.
If we do a collaborative zine I'd personally prefer to do it after the swap because I'd like to do both but probably won't be able to if they're due at the same time (despite the small size). A page count guideline might be a good idea for this one. Instead of mailing copies, maybe the coordinator could send out a pdf for contributors to print their own.
*email for trade.
"What is love?" (...baby don't hurt me, no more.) from Six North Zines is available for $1 on Etsy.
It's a black and white 8 page mini-zine.
I will trade :)

Or message me for trade.
Hey everybody! BLACK HOLE BRAINS #2 is now available for trade or sale on my Etsy!
It's a limited run of 50 copies, so get one if you're interested! ^__^
I'm good with the quarter-size format. And a How-to Zine would be great. With a widely diversified group, who know what kind of stuff I might learn to do - ha, ha! Is the suggested number of pages open for us to decide upon? Perhaps we should have a minimum, or a range of min to max number of pages? Or doesn't that matter to everyone?
I plan on getting my prep work going on this soon.
I like the idea of combining them for a How-To Collection / Encyclopedia. That's a good idea.

The Food and Drug Administration says it is investigating the unexplained deaths of two patients in the wake of receiving intramuscular injections of the antipsychotic medication Zyprexa (generic name olanzapine). The patients died three to four days after receiving appropriate doses of Zyprexa Relprevv, which is designed to release slowly into the blood over two to four weeks and provide regular dosing for adults with schizophrenia.
The FDA says the deaths occurred well after the three-to-four-hour window following injection during which patients should be monitored in a physician's office for a potentially deadly complication called post-injection delirium sedation syndrome (PDSS). Characterized by severe drowsiness, unconsciousness, coma or delirium, PDSS appears to be caused by a rapid buildup of olanzapine in the blood. High doses of olanzapine can cause cardiopulmonary arrest or cardiac arrhythmias, as well as delirium and extreme sedation.
Both deceased patients were found to have "very high olanzapine blood levels after death," the FDA said. But since their deaths occurred days, not hours, after their injections of Zyprexa Relprevv, their connection to the so-called "depot medication" is uncertain. Clinical trials leading to the approval of the long-acting treatment for schizophrenia saw no deaths in subjects, and found instances of PDSS only in the first several hours following injection.
Under the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) approved for Zyprexa Relprevv in December 2009, the injections and the three-hour post-injection period of monitoring must take place in a facility certified by the FDA to provide the shots. A long-acting injection can be a particular benefit in treating those with schizophrenia, who frequently fail to take oral medications on the prescribed schedule.
"At this time, the FDA is continuing to evaluate these deaths and will provide an update when more information is available," the federal drug agency said Tuesday.

Pushing the Envelope: The Career of Fighter Ace and Test Pilot Marion Carl
€ 21,49
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
März 2014
BeschreibungFirst published in 1994, this stirring autobiography of a fighter and test pilot takes readers full throttle through Carl's imposing list of "firsts." Beginning with his World War II career, he gained such commendations as first Marine Corps ace, among the first Marines ever to fly a helicopter, and first Marine to land aboard an aircraft carrier. His combat duty included the momentous battles at Midway and Guadalcanal. Not one to rest on his laurels, however, he participated in photoreconnaissance operations over Red China in 1955 and flew missions in Vietnam. In peacetime he gamed fame for "pushing the envelope" as a test pilot, adding the world's altitude and peace records to his wartime feats and becoming the first U.S. military aviator to wear a full pressure suit. Such achievements also led to Carl's being the first living Marine admitted to the Naval Aviation Hall of Honor, as well as the first Marine to be named to the Navy Carrier Aviation Test Pilots Hall of Honor. This very readable memoir is as forthright and compelling as the man it chronicles.

The Robe Parent Review
The brutality of ancient Rome is unsuitable for young families but the loyal love story between Diana and Marcellus, his metamorphic change and commitment, are reasons to pick up this title.
Movie Review
Marcellus Gallio (Richard Burton) a self-centered and brazen centurion is the product of an affluent family in a conquering nation. Unconcerned for his father's reputation as a Roman senator, Marcellus fires quick words at a high ranking official and soon finds himself consigned to duty in the hot, dusty province of Jerusalem.
NEW: Listen to our Parent Previews Podcast and take control of media and technology in your family!
Back home, the lovelorn Diana (Jean Simmons) pleads the case of her errant soldier and begs for his return to Rome while evading the lusty advances of Caligula (Jay Robinson I), son of the reigning emperor. Her cries are successful and Marcellus is soon summoned back to the center of civilization, but not before completing his final assignment to oversee the crucifixion of Jesus. While playing games of chance at the foot of the cross, a drunken Marcellus wins the scarlet robe worn by Christ. Haunted by the touch of the homespun cloth, the returning centurion suffers fevered fits of sleep and wild delusions that convince him the mantle is bewitched. In order to regain his sanity he seeks to destroy the robe, along with the followers of the crucified teacher.
While mingling among the humble followers of Jesus, Marcellus discovers the robe in the possession of his former Greek slave, Demetrius (Victor Mature). Afraid to handle the garment but intrigued by the Christian believers, Marcellus begins a journey that brings him face to face with his role in history's most infamous crucifixion and ultimately pits his newfound convictions against the power of the Roman emperor.
The Robe claims a spot in cinematic history as one of the first motion pictures to be filmed in the wide screen format. Nominated for best picture in 1954, it was also one of the first epic films of the 1950's and early 60's that include classics such as Ben Hur, Spartacus, and The Ten Commandments. The story of The Robe continues in the movie, Demetrius and the Gladiators.
The brutality of ancient Rome is unsuitable for young families but the loyal love story between Diana and Marcellus, his metamorphic change and commitment, are reasons to pick up this title if you're roamin' around the video store.Starring Richard Burton Jean Simmons Victor Mature. Running time: 135 minutes. Theatrical release December 4, 1953. Updated July 21, 2016
Get details on profanity, sex and violence in The Robe here.
The Robe Parents Guide
During the movie, Marcellus spares the life of a Roman soldier with whom he is fighting for control of the troops. Why do you think he allowed the man to live? Do you think his decision was a sign of courage or weakness? When can walking away from trouble be the best thing to do?
Demetrius tells Marcellus that no amount of money can buy his friendship. How is true friendship earned? How did the relationship between Demetrius and Marcellus change over time?
One of the characters in the movie claims, "man's desire to be free is the greatest madness of all." What do you think he meant?

A young boy has been hailed a hero for calling Napier police, crying "enough", and stopping Hawke's Bay's worst sex offender, homosexual paedophile Owen Stanley Draper.
Given Draper's history, police almost expected the call one day, but never anticipated the extent of the offending which led yesterday to Draper admitting four years of abuse involving 11 boys, aged 9 to 14.
He had previous convictions in 1986, 1988 and 1996, was once sentenced to six months' jail and, most recently, 12 months suspended, with periodic detention and supervision.
Yesterday, in 15 minutes without contrition in the High Court in Napier, leaning forward between two prison officers to peruse the indictments held by defence counsel Scott Jefferson, the 66-year-old muttered "guilty" as each of 38 charges was read.
They covered abuse from sexual violation to grooming boys for the purpose of committing sex crimes, but Draper wouldn't admit supplying or offering cannabis - one of the many methods with which he was alleged to have tried to lure his victims.
Mainly, the offences were committed on board his wooden-hulled former naval inshore patrol vessel, Ikatere, which remains moored off the Whakarere Ave Reserve, on the northern side of the Napier inner harbour.
Luring boys with the prospect of marine adventure, and cash and gifts, said might not normally have been available within their families, Draper also committed offences in his Onekawa home. He also gained the confidence and trust of victims' unsuspecting parents, in whose homes some offences were committed. Some offences were committed in Tauranga.
Crown prosecutor Russell Collins offered no evidence on four related charges, which were discharged by Justice Patrick Keane, who then remanded Draper in continued custody for sentencing on March 31, calling for reports on whether it should be preventive detention.
Only the admissions may save him, sparing the boys the ordeal of standing in front of a judge and 12 strangers in the jury box to relate the stories they once never wanted to tell.
Draper then headed for prison, where he had been for eight months since his arrest.
Inquiry head Napier CIB sexual-abuse team leader Carol Romatowski, in court for Draper's capitulation in a break from a child-abuse trial next door, said the boy who made the first move was "exceedingly brave, exceedingly courageous".
"One boy had had enough, and he rang the police," she said.
In an environment in which boys wanted to ignore what had happened, with repeated offences following Draper's offers of cash and gifts, and boating adventure, all involved were supportive as the inquiry opened.
"All of the boys were very brave," she said.
"I really commend them all."
Draper is now thought to be Hawke's Bay's worst sex offender, surpassing Bruce Benjamin Shepherd who in 2006, aged 70, was sentenced to 13 years' jail for offences involving nine girls.

Yesterday Microsoft released its final version of Office 2013, or as it's officially known, Microsoft Office 365. The long-awaited software has gone through months of public testing. Scott Lowe, Founder and Managing Consultant of the 1610 Group joined the Morning NewsDesk Show to share his thoughts on Microsoft's latest news.
Lowe shared that for a recurring annual fee of $99.99, a subscription to Office 365 contains the usual Office suite products – Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Publisher – and in addition to those, subscribers will receive an ongoing set of upgrades as Microsoft makes improvements to the software. Furthermore, it comes with 20GB of SkyDrive space and 60 Skype minutes per month.
"Probably the most important thing is the cloud integration piece with the new suite," he said. He clarified that While it has cloud aspects, such as storing all your files in SkyDrive, Office 365 is not truly cloud-based because it doesn't necessarily run with an "always-on connection."
He went on to explain what he called "Office On-Demand." If a user is on a remote machine or one other than their own, it has the capability to "stream" the applications down to that machine from a central cloud-based repository that Microsoft maintains. Another example he gave was if a user was on an unsupported platform, such as the iPad or a Mac without Office 2011, they could go into their "MyOffice" account and use the Office Web Apps through the service.
Lowe stated that the most obvious comparison of Office 365 would be to GoogleDocs. "This is Microsoft's initial foray into this," he said. "They've had Office Web Apps for awhile, and frankly, they've been quite good."
Lowe described this a completely consumer-based play right now, as Microsoft's business version of Office 365 will not be released until February. He referenced the clause in Office 365 that says it's squarely for non-commercial use. He discussed some potential licensing risks that could be encountered as people will try to use the home version of Office 365 for corporate activities, especially in work from home scenarios. See the entire segment with Kristin Feledy and Scott Lowe on the Morning NewsDesk Show.

|morgos has been inhabited since prehistoric times, as is demonstrated by finds from the Early Cycladic Period. The presence on the island of Cretans of the Minoan period has also been established. At the top of a hill above the southern side of the harbour, at Katapola, the remains of ancient Minoa, said to have been the summer residence of Minos, have been found. There are the sites of two other ancient cities on the island: Arkesine and Aegiale. The island later passed under the rule of the Athenians. It then belonged to the Ptolemies and subsequently the Romans. It fell to other conquerors and finally, in 1209, to the Venetian Marco Sanudo, who incorporated it into the Duchy of Naxos. After three centuries, it was taken by the Turks, to be liberated in 1832 and united to Greece.
oday, Amorgos is visited by a large number of tourists which come to the island to enjoy the unspoiled natural environment, the crystal waters of the sea, the rough beauty of the landscape and the off the beaten track way of life. In spite of the fact that the island's tourist facilities are still in their infancy, its hotels and rented rooms are capable of catering to large number of visitors.

Ripoff Report
Dave' Boat TrailersCrain Hwy. Glen Burnie, Select State/Province USA
Dave' Boat Trailers Crain Hwy. Glen Burnie Maryland. 21061 Rip off .... Defective trailer. ... Poor customer service .....homesteader enclosed trailer. Further damaged my trailer....would not provide insurance info. Glen Burnie Maryland
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I bought an enclosed trailer (homesteader) from Dave's Trailers. Approximately 3 months later, rustEd water was pouring from the corner. It was not known where it was coming from, but something was not right. Took it to the dealer Dave and they drilled holeo in both of the welded hollow support rails. These rails are supposed to be sealed air tight. They did not ask permission, they just did it. I didn't get a call until after they drilled holes into the trailer rails. They claim no wrong doing, bout the manufacture says it was inappropriate for them to do this. It compromises the structure now.
I have to sue in order to find remedy. My auto insurance carrier would not pay the claim, or surrogate in my behalf. The manufacture assumes no responsibility either. They pass the buck and make it impossible To get resolution without spending lots of money and time to get justice. If you need a trailer, you are better off spending a little extra and save yourself the headache. In addition, the owner is a real gem....not....he tries to cover his a**, but should not get away with his ill business practices. People like this should be shut down, and not allowed to conduct business.

Reckon you know auto affluence when you see it? Forget the swanky streets of Vaucluse and Toorak; to see Lamborghini Aventadors parked cheek-and-jowl with McLaren MP4s and Ferrari 458 Italias waiting for Bentleys at roundabouts, spend five minutes in the United Arab Emirates.
Cars for which you couldn't swap an average inner-city mortgage are so thick on the ground in places such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi that within a few hours, even they start to look commonplace.
So what's life like as a prestige car dealer in these parts? In just a few words: very, very busy.
George Duncan, an Irish ex-pat who has been working in the UAE since 2010, declares it's a demanding job. Clearly, though, he wouldn't want it any other way.
Duncan is the director of prestige at Dubai-based Al Habtoor Motors, an operation that sells new and used Bugattis, McLarens and Bentleys (and is one of the UAE's biggest property developers and builders).
While China and the US might still outstrip the UAE in sheer numbers of Bentleys sold, Al Habtoor Motors sells more Bentleys that any other single dealership anywhere in the world.
"We'll sell, this year, between 450 and 475 brand-new Bentleys and another 150 used Bentleys," Duncan tells Executive Style.
"We're also number one in the world for Bugatti, although that only represents 10 cars per year.
"And we're number three for McLaren with about 60 cars. But within that, we're number one in the world for the McLaren P1 supercar and we'll sell 24 of those this year." (They could sell more if not for supply constraints, he cheerfully adds.)
Duncan puts the dealership's success down to a combination of the uber-affluent UAE market, a strong car culture and his organisation's business model.
"For our part, it's all down to service," he says. "Service, service, service. We've just opened the world's largest service facility for Bentley and we've gone to incredible lengths.
"For instance, the service facility is airconditioned, but even when you drive in through the front doors to the area where you park your car, the atmosphere is 100 per cent airconditioned.
"Each year we take about 20 customers to Goodwood (in Britain) for the (motorsport) revival festival.
"We also have a 24/7 approach. We have five covered recovery vehicles which are dedicated to that task – and are not allowed to be used for anything else – and our aim is to be with the customer within two hours of the call for help."
And when you drop your Bentley off for service at Al Habtoor Motors, do you drive home in a Nissan or Toyota loan car? Of course not; you take one of the six Bentley loan cars the service department operates.
The other part of the UAE puzzle is that the region has more millionaires per capita than anywhere else on the planet. And millionaires aren't renowned for rewarding poor or tardy service with repeat business.
That, says Duncan, is the crux of his dealership's attention to detail. "Buyers in the UAE have very high expectations and a low threshold for tolerating nonsense," he confirms.
"If we don't respond to their needs very quickly, we end up in trouble."
There's also a distinct lack of cultural cringe. Ownership of luxury goods is seen as anything but a reason to be coy.
"It's a very proud market." Duncan says," It's a market full of congratulations and very positive, not negative, energy.
"I'm always amazed at the speed at which they do things here. There's no corporate red tape; when they decide to do something, it gets done and it gets done well. We have to reflect that.
"Unlike China or India, when they want to build a skyscraper here, they don't have to bulldoze a slum first. They just do it and they're the best in the world at it."
David Morley travelled to Abu Dhabi as a guest of Bentley.

Damn, that sounds pretty sweet for a noob like me. This will take some serious consideration.
Sounds like an epic metalshaping event -- nice work Randy Ferguson and fellow MetalMeet'ers! Can't wait to see some pics and hear all the juicy details.

I went to the Regional @ Dutch Comstocks place. If it is 10% of what Dutch's had, it will be WELL WORTH it for ANYONE to attend ! I was only able to hit Dutch's for Friday. It killed me not to be there Sat. & Sunday. (Prior commitments)
(Checking on plane and hotels after i'm done with this post !)
Dutch's meeting was best described as a "group of guys that were like old friends-that never met". Everyone was welcome to pitch in and do, or help in their own way, or if you wanted,stand and soak it all in.
They varied in talent from a green,raw,newbie like me to experts like Dutch & Randy that could make identical, but opposite fenders better than factory made.
I met fantastic people like Kerry Pinkerton, Slob (Rob), Randy, Dutch, Collin(NY), Colin (from Canada) 2 guys from the Netherlands, Andy, Bennett, and a slew of other guys that could bend metal. Never been to a friendlier place. EVERYONE wanted to see everyone produce higher quality, so even miniscule tips were passed around.
Gotta see what Expedia.com says.......
Where's the closest major airport? and minor?

Hi Jeff,
Indianapolis and St. Louis are the closest major airports at about 2 or 2-1/2 hours away for either one. Terre Haute, IN. or Evansville, IN. would be the smaller choices, with Terre Haute being nearly an hour away and Evansville a little over that.
You will want to get motel reservations made asap. The number for the Best Western, (where I have 40 rooms blocked, that may or may not still be available) is (618) 544-8448
Act fast!!
Oh BTW, The International MetalMeet is HUGE. The regional meets are tiny in comparison, but the great thing about it, is that the same spirit you describe is ever present. This will be our 4th annual gathering, which has grown beyond belief. Our first MetalMeet, we had 35 guys in attendance, and though it's grown to this number in such a short time it's still like getting together with family. In fact, my real family isn't as close knit as we are! It's strange for a group of 250 people, mostly males getting together and checking the ego at the door, but it really does happen!!
We will have seminars daily, so for those of you who think you aren't up to speed enough to attend, but would like to, you will certainly be just as welcome as the seasoned veteran! I've attended each one (last year my first time hosting this event) and I was a rank beginner that first year, so don't let that stop you!

Man does that sound awsome. I should be ashamed of myself but I have a guy only an hour and a half from me who does classes. He does them on the road as well. If any of you would like to go to the MetalMeet one but can't maybe one of Ron Covells classes would be a good start. COVELL (click here)
Ron Covell= $180 per DAY.
MM'04= $50 per WEEK.
And MetalMeet IS 100% hands on, NOT sitting in a chair watching.
The $50.00 fee covers ALL expenses, including the metals you use for your various projects throughout the week.
Many knowledgeable people to glean information from.
Tons of tools to 'test drive' before purchasing.
Raffles and door prizes.
Daily seminars
All types of metalshaping projects and procedures, from simple patch panels to a complete, scratch built car. A complete re-body of a '37 Olds, aviation panelwork, motorcycle building, blacksmithing, art projects, metal spinning, you name it, if it pertains to moving metal, we're probably doing it!!
The $50.00 fee is a shared expense to cover costs of the event, so in reality, it's a free event, but we all chip in to pay for the metals, supplies, tent rental, porta potties, various materials for buck building, tables, benches, lighting, etc. It's a huge undertaking and we work at this, literally, year around. It's a labor of love, so to speak.
The friendships that are forged is the real value though. As I said before, and evidenced by Jeff's post, we are a close knit bunch!

MM'04 = $400.00 air fare, $300 Hotel, meals $150.00 rental car $300.00, gas $50.00? total $1,200.00
It is an option, I am not saying it is better, just an option. I just spent my two week vacation, I couldn't go for another week, PERIOD. So Covell would be a good option. That is all I am saying.
well, in that case, another interesting option might be Gene Winfields' class.
i was figuring on staying on Randys' couch.
Hi Guys,
You're missing the concept.
MetalMeet IS NOT A CLASS.
The seminars could be considered a class, as they will be conducted as such, but MetalMeet, as a whole is much more like an apprenticeship program. Everyone can roam around, come and go as they please, etc. BUT, we will be forming teams of about 15 guys ranging in various degrees of experience, working together on our many projects. This will allow the beginners and intermediate guys to work closely with the more advanced and pro metalshapers to greatly reduce the learning curve. You can learn way more in this setting than you will in any class. Most of the guys going to the classes that some of the more "famous" metalshapers are teaching, are still having to pay for the same expenses incurred in coming to a MetalMeet.
Covell's is probably the most economical class you can attend, because he travels and works in various shops regionally, giving classes, rather than having to go to his shop, but you still may have to travel a bit to get to one. The thing I find about the classes though, (and I've never attended one, but have taught a couple) is that you get one guys perspective. With MetalMeet, you get to learn from many craftsmen and get a huge amount of information and ideas from several sources. We all learn more each year too, just by "sharing information and sharpening skills" as our logo states.

I gotta back Randy on this one. YOu will learn more by rifling around than any class could show you. I went to Gene's. I learned A TON (See My Journal for 80 pics). I also went to Dutch Comstocks, which is where I met Randy. I spent $350.00 for 2 days at Gene's. I had a great time and learned a ton. I saw 90% of what Gene showed me. Gene showed the blasphemous technique of BONDO, which is verboten at Metalmeet. If I can get the time away from the business, I'll be in Robinson w/ "Thor". What I learned at Metalmeet, that WASN'T at Gene's was :
How to make/use a flexible template
How people will make mistakes, AND CORRECT THEM
How people can discover new techniques and SHARE them gratis
How to make your own tools using stuff that other people throw away.
A "free" hotline for problems.(Metalmeet) Especially one where people genuinely want to help.
20 or 30 different "teachers". Where if you don't understand one persons method of explaining, you have 18 other ways to tell you the same thing until you understand! Perfect example was when Kerry Pinkerton was explaining methods of shrinking metal (Crushing tucks). He did his best, but I was too thick. Randy and Dutch explained it a little different, and metal was getting thicker by the second.
BEWARE THOUGH: This metalbending stuff is contagious ! All progress was halted on my 39 chevy until I finished my brothers gas grill this weekend. Gotta see my journal for the z-28 fenders on the grill. LOL A rookie and his E-wheel. What a pair !
I've twisted more metal (in the last 2 weeks) than a demolition derby !
I'll be there, just have to remember to drop my form by.

On the weekends, I read the paper. In case you think that is why I am so worldly, I must confess I only read the Lifestyle section. But I do read it, all the way through, so that has to count for something, right?
So, anyway, I'm reading the syndicated column called Parenting, by Dr. T. Berry Brazelton and Dr. Joshua Sparrow. A mother is writing in because she is concerned that her pregnant daughter has 3 cats. 3 cats who have been the center of her daughter's life and are a little spoiled. She is concerned that the cats will be jealous of the baby.
The doctors begin their answer by talking about toxoplasma. The list some of the precautions that must be taken. So far, so good.
Then they address the issue of jealousy. Now, I agree the cats may be jealous, but there are ways to handle it. I suspect that there are lots and lots of people who have babies and cats. Of course you would never leave a baby alone with a cat, but really, you shouldn't leave a baby alone with any animal. Do the good doctor's give that kind of rational advice?? No! This is their response:
"Some cats will seek out the babies' mouths to smother them. It may sound heartless, but it would be better for the baby if your daughter would rid herself of the cats."
If they had worded this a different way. If they had said that cats like to cuddle and sleep on people and that they might accidentally lay on a babies' face, so you should be cautious. I would be okay with that. But to actually say that the cats are going to seek out the babies' mouth with the intention of smothering the baby, sounds ridiculous to me.

Couple days ago I did a system recovery with PC Angel, my comp was acting up and I hoped this would fix it. Well, it reset my comp back to factory defaults, but it also made a folder that called Backup folder. I looked in there and my music and other files are in there along with a program folder with all the programs I had before the recovery. Is there a way to bring my programs back without re downloading/installing from disc? I clicked on World of Warcraft exe in the backup/program folder and the game started like normal. But then I clicked another program and it was no longer registered to me, another program said it was missing a file and another said it was damaged or illegally modified. I would like to have some of those programs back, but I lost most of my CD keys and what not. Any help?

It's unlikely that you'd be able to get too many of the apps working without reinstalling them.
You see, some applications will run fine out of their own directory without installation, but most applications access shared dlls and registry settings that don't exist unless they have been installed.
For best results, you should reinstall them, otherwise you'll probably end up with bugs. You can restore your saved data like your game files from the backup data.

by Xinhua writers Cheng Yunjie and Jin Jing
BEIJING, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- "Can I do it differently?" This is the question U.S. President Barack Obama encouraged young Chinese to ask constantly in their pursuit of individual success as he shared with college students his personal experiences in Shanghai early this week.
The same question may help China and the United States to open the door toward a healthier collective future.
For a long time, the real China has been misunderstood by westerners because of either ignorance or ideological stand or other reasons, and the word of China seemed to have often been connected with something evil or dangerous.
The West's perception of China has been changing gradually, and a positive turn has occurred as Obama has said more than once during his ongoing Asia tour that the United States would not seek to contain China' s rise but welcome China as a strong and prosperous player in the community of nations.
Be it an expedience to solicit China's support in time of the worst recession in decades or a willing-hearted strategic decision, the remarks have forged a good starting point to further Chinese-U.S. ties as the Obama administration has made it clear that the two nations, sharing much in common while being different in certain ways, were not predestined to be adversaries.
Such mentality is just what ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius taught his students to pursue thousands of years ago: "Be harmonious yet different."
Probably just a minor event in the eyes of many Americans, the adoption of a resolution by the U.S. House of Representatives late last month to honor the 2,560th anniversary of the birth of Confucius did hearten many Chinese.
And Disney, a symbol of American pop culture and from which generations of American kids have drawn happiness, is expected to land in the Chinese mainland as a Shanghai project has been recently approved by the Chinese government.
Such coincidence surely will help mend the cultural gap and to break down prejudices between peoples of the two countries.
Without an open mind and a pragmatic way of thinking to change for the good of the people, the Chinese people couldn't have gone such far in either poverty elimination or economic development. But along its way to retrieve its national pride, China faces a severe task of having itself better understood so as to defuse unnecessary disputes and practice what Confucius advocated "being harmonious yet different."
Many westerners do not realize China's gigantic internal gap in wealth, regional development and public utilities. Some take Shanghai and Beijing for what the whole China is like, others think the Chinese only refer to the Han nationality.
In this sense, China needs to think and act differently, by telling the world more of its less developed areas and thinking more of herself from the perspectives of others.
The United States, on the other hand, may also need to be introspective and take initiatives to figure out effective new ways to tackle its own chronical problems.
Given that the U.S. jobless rate hit a record high of 10.2 percent in October, a lot of internal pressure in the country might once again target China as a source of the problem.
And with the next mid-term elections approaching in the United States, American trade partners, especially China, might have to face more finger-pointing and protectionism, which would be detrimental to bilateral relations and global economic recovery.
To avoid turning back to the same old page of history, it might be time for the United States to go back to the premier question and think what it could do differently.
Instead of blaming others for its unemployment, for example, the United States could create jobs by expanding export, such as boosting high-tech products to China.
To embark on an unbeaten path on developing bilateral relations, however, it needs not only political wisdom, but also trust, sufficient respect and a broad public understanding of the real China.

Cause of death released in death of WW2 pilot found after brush fire
BEAUFORT COUNTY - Investigators have released the cause of death for a World War 2 pilot whose body was found after crews put out a brush fire in Beaufort County.
According to the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office, 88-year-old Richard Balzer was conducting a controlled burn on his property along Dan Taylor Road, near Market Place Extension northeast of Washington, Wednesday evening. But he died of medical complications before the fire got out out control, based on results from a preliminary autopsy report.
A close friend of Balzer's said the victim may have had a heart attack.
Firefighters got a call about the brush fire just before 6 p.m. Wednesday, said Major Kenneth Watson of the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office. When crews extinguished the blaze, they found Balzer's burnt body.
Balzer's wife was the one who called the fire department, because she couldn't find her husband but knew he was attempting a controlled burn, Major Watson said.
No foul play was suspected in Balzer's death, investigators said.
According to family, Balzer was a pilot in World War 2.

Wall Street eases from record highs2:03
Wall Street has come off record highs overnight. Yahoo shares barely budge overnight after Yahoo merger. Commsec Report.
AUSTRALIAN stocks are weaker at noon as the Reserve Bank of Australia forecasts below-average economic growth in 2013.
RBS Morgans Ipswich manager Tony Russell said the minutes of the central bank's May 7 board meeting, at which it cut the cash rate to a record low, had prompted investors to reconsider the outlook for mining companies.
"That's probably not helping our market, those comments by the Reserve Bank today saying they're not looking for any sort of real strong growth until later next year," he said.
The RBA said the Australian economy was set to grow at a below-average pace in 2013, as mining sector investment peaked.
Mining stocks fell, with BHP Billiton losing 14 cents to $34.65 and Rio Tinto falling 62 cents to $54.80.
Resources engineering group Transfield Services saw its shares plummet to a record low this morning after it cut its profit forecast and slashed another 113 jobs. Its shares were down 27.5 cents, or 21.57 per cent, to $1.00 at 12.03pm AEST.
Banking shares were also down but, Mr Russell said, that was due to investors taking profits. Commonwealth Bank lost $1.17 to $72.32, Westpac shed 40 cents to $31.39, National Australia Bank gave up 23 cents to $33.14, while ANZ relinquished 53 cents to $29.70.
Making news today, Seven West Media has appointed Tim Worner as the diversified publishing firm's new chief executive. Mr Worner, the boss of the group's broadcast television operations, takes over from Don Voelte as CEO on July 1. Seven West was down three cents at $2.33.
At 12pm AEST, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was down 43.2 points, or 0.83 per cent, at 5165.8 points.
* The broader All Ordinaries index was down 39.0 points, or 0.75 per cent, at 5146.4 points.
* The June share price index futures contract was down 48 points at 5172 points, on volume of 15,039 contracts.
* National turnover was 586.6 million securities worth $1.535 billion.

'Weird Al' Yankovic On Kids' Lit And His 'Madonna Moment'
"Weird Al" Yankovic launched his career with send-ups of Michael Jackson hits in the 1980's, but his latest release from isn't another parody. He joins Soundcheck from the studios of NPR West to talk about his latest work, a children's book, My New Teacher And Me, which is a sequel of sorts to his first book, When I Grow Up.
Plus, we ask Yankovic about his "Madonna Moment":
Interview Highlights
"Weird Al" Yankovic on what inspired him to write My New Teacher And Me:
I probably drew a little from personal experiences. I did have a couple of teachers earlier in my life where we didn't get quite get along. I had an eighth grade electric shop teacher who was a bit harsh. Billy, the character in my book, is the kid I wish I could have been. He speaks up for himself. He finds his voice. I was a bit more intimidated at that age.
On imagination and creativity:
That's the nature and the essence of being a kid really. This book is sort of a cautionary tale of having that creativity beaten out of you. There are people in your life that will maybe tell you to "grow up" and they might stifle some of that childlike wonder.
On how he got the idea to parody Madonna's "Like A Virgin":
Madonna was actually the person who suggested that I do the parody "Like a Surgeon." She was apparently talking to a friend of hers as they were walking through New York City one day, and she just happened to wonder aloud, "I wonder when Weird Al's gonna do a parody of "Like A Virgin" called "Like A Surgeon." It got back to me, and I thought -- not a bad idea, thanks Madonna, think I will!
