Brock Speer Biography
Jackson Brock Speer
(Dec. 28, 1920 – Mar. 29, 1999)
Brock Speer began singing professionally with his parent's quartet while still a small boy in the 1920s. Aside from a stint as a soldier in World War II, Speer sang with his family group his entire life. Ultimately moving to the bass position, Speer became the leader of the group after the death of his parents in the mid-1960s. Under Speer's direction, the group was one of the top drawing groups in the industry until their retirement, recording on the RCA, Benson, and Homeland labels among others.
In 1972, Speer served as president of the GMA. He also served the organization as chairman of the board and was a permanent board member. He was inducted into the GMA Hall Of Fame in 1975. The SGMA inducted Brock into their Hall Of Fame in 1997, also inducting his parents that same year.

6. TheRiverTalker
in the unexpected shadows of the morning's first light,
in the back room canyons of the newborn's night,
in those first snarls of unseen fear,
the shape of Lady Death, does then appear.
Through the years, she has stalked my soul,
from sea to sea, from pole to pole,
relentless has been her savage prowl,
and endless so her haunting howl.
I first heard her screeching, scratching call,
as she spread o'er me her velvet pall,
when I fought for life in fevered cries,
and mama wept her sad good-byes.
Lady Death, she danced her dance with me once more,
in nights of death in desperate days of war,
shots were fired and blood was spilled,
and all but me were lost and killed.
Years did pass and I lived on,
wondering, wondering where she had gone,
I prayed, I hoped, that she had died away,
to leave me live just one more day.
But in the dim and fading glow,
in this dying place here below,
her sweet, dark lullabies, now she sings,
as I leave this place on soft, black velvet wings.

|Dear Samurai Appliance Repair Man,
1. First sorry for only addressing my earlier reply to scuba415.
2. You are more than welcome to reply to my plea for help and I wish you would reply.
3. After searching the archive for noisy dryers and drum rollers, it appears that a full disasembly of the dryer is necessary for drum roller replacement. However, a schematic and/or instructions does not yet exist for any ASKO Dryer. There is one detail write up for a belt replacement on the same ASKO T700 Dryer that I have. Will this write up get me to where I need to go to replace my drum rollers.
4. How many drum roller does my ASKO T700 Dryer have and what other replacments part do you suggest I replace at the same time as my drum rollers.
5. I thank you in advance for your reply and please accept my apology that no insult to you was intended for refering to scuba415 only in my first post. Thanks.

Wisconsin DNR to sell 10,000 acres
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Board has approved the first phase of a plan to make 10,000 acres of DNR land available for sale. The plan, a directive from the state legislature and included in the 2013-15 state budget specifies that the proceeds from the sale be used to repay outstanding public debt related to the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program.
Initiated by the Wisconsin Legislature in 1989, the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Program has acquired ownership or easement on more than 600,000 acres. The purpose to preserve valuable natural areas and wildlife habitat, protect water quality and fisheries and expand opportunities for outdoor recreation. DNR Secretary Cathy Stepp says the sale of DNR lands will ensure the continuation of the Knowles-Nelson program.
The 10,000 acres will be divided into four phases: DNR Real Estate Director Doug Haag says there are 22 parcels totaling about 1,400 acres in this first phase. Parcels with legal road access will be offered to the general public. Parcels without public access will be offered to adjacent land owners. DNR will issue a press release when a parcel is up for bid and the bid window will be open for 90 days. Haag says the first offer will probably be around mid-August.
Maps of parcels are available on the DNR website search word "land sales". View the DNR parcels here:

Research SummaryOur group is interested in the physics and technology of electronic materials and devices.
We intend to grow and characterize metallic and semiconducting mesostructures with interesting optoelectronic properties. Emphasis will be on design and development of functional components which will be integrated into a working device such as a photodetector or solar cell. We aim to work with facile, eco-friendly synthesis routes such as electrochemical deposition and chemical bath deposition. The materials will be characterized using transport and optical measurements. Full attempt will be made to understand the interplay between device architecture and underlying physics in order to optimize performance.
Future research directions involve electrochemical growth of metal dendrites, transparent conducting electrodes and photodetectors.

When Professor Paula Meek, PhD, RN, FAAN, started her career as a nurse in a cardiac step-down unit about 25 years ago, she was stricken by the different levels of care provided to cardiac patients compared to pulmonary patients. She observed pulmonary patients sitting in their rooms struggling to breathe for days while they waited for their medication to help, and they received very little attention and education about their chronic illness.
"It became blatantly obvious to me that we were pouring resources into one area and not doing much for the other," Dr. Meek says. "I got into pulmonary care [and symptom management] right away. I wanted to find something that would facilitate or help people with chronic diseases like COPD through that acute period of chronic illness."
"I decided I needed to do pulmonary symptom research because everybody was looking at drugs. Nobody was looking at cognitive function and how that could impact that symptom." Breathlessness, she says, has a huge number of sensory mechanisms, and dyspnea can be triggered if they're even slightly off. The complexity of determining the causes and improving treatment intrigued her.
Meek was also interested in how cognitive function and attitude affected chronic pulmonary disease. Once, Meek says, she had two patients present with the same pulmonary function and medication regime. They looked similar on paper but one was in a wheelchair and struggling significantly; the other was eager to get out of the clinic to go shopping. The relatively healthier patient told Meek she'd made a choice to remain active and commit to staying positive. "That just made me want to learn from the patients who had adjusted to their chronic illness and figure out how to get others to that point."
In 2012, Meek and her nursing colleagues applied for a NIH Center Grant to start a center to research symptom management and fatigue symptoms in a way that marries markers and behavioral influences on fatigue. There are pilot projects for each of three populations: those with a chronic disease (COPD or congestive heart failure), healthy caregivers, and individuals who have sleep disturbance from previous cancer treatment. She hopes the study will find any common fatigue-related symptoms in all populations in order to determine uniform, effective interventions.
Dr. Meek is also working on several projects with CU School of Medicine colleagues: a treatment grant with Associate Professor David Bekelman, MD, and an R01 grant with Professor Barry Make, MD. Her work with Dr. Bekelman is a randomized controlled study that addresses depression, pain, fatigue and breathlessness. "It is a really intense medical intervention to try to help with these chronic medical symptoms that don't go away. We're trying to reduce the impact of them."
The R01 grant with Dr. Make will use NIH's Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information Systems (PROMIS) to facilitate comprehensive testing of symptoms like fatigue.
Where in the past, you could create a research niche for yourself, she says, now you need to back up innovative idea with a team of experts across disciplines in order to compete for funding.
"We really work with each other at a more basic level all the time," she says, "and I believe we're on the forefront of coming developments in research."

Yo guys,
I have been finishing up my last semester at college the last few months, and now I am returning to the Car World. For those of you who don't remember me from clubwrx.net I put together a North Branch Park meet in Chalfont, PA. Not far from Royal Performance (thekingofparts) homebase to meet some Fellow Subaru Owners. I got a decent setup going on with the WRX right now:
2004 Silver Subaru WRX
Invidia Up-Pipe
Invidia Catless Downpipe
Invidia G200 Exhaust
SPT Short Ram Intake
COBB Access Port Running Stage 2 Mapping @ 93 Oct
Cobb Light Main Pulley
SPT Intake Heat Shield
SPT Turbo Heat Shield
_ I proudly purchased all my parts listed above from Tristan and Jeremy @ Royal Performance. They got great prices and amazing customer service.
Anyhow I just wanted to stop back in and say hello, as I see these are new forums for WRX owners. I will be looking to get my windows tinted shortly down at Good Vibration in Horsham, PA.
A few months down the road I am hoping to get a Precision Turbo Setup going on with some new injectors and an upgraded fuel pump.

Fossil Preparation Demonstration and Exhibit Tour offered daily during the summer months. Ask questions as rangers and volunteers demonstrate the tools and techniques used to prepare fossils from the Green River Formation. During the exhibit tour, discover the stories told by the fossils and the rocks they are found in.
Ranger Programs
Quarry Program: "Aquarium in Stone" What better way to explore a fossil park than with a paleontologist in a fossil quarry. On Fridays and Saturdays during the summer, 11:00am-4:00pm (weather permitting) visitors can participate in the scientific collection of fossils. This is a great opportunity to get your hands dirty and see a fossil revealed after being buried in stone for 52 million years!
We hope you enjoy the hike, the opportunity to see fossils in their original position, and the interaction with our GeoCorp intern stationed there. Wear comfortable hiking boots, sunscreen, and bring drinking water and insect repellent. Inquire at the visitor center for directions.
The 2016 program begins June 17 and ends August 20.
All fossils remain in the monument's museum collection for scientific study. Allow 1.5 hours for this program.
If you discovered a fossil while participating in this program, go here to view the data collected.
Guided Hikes The summer schedule offers a variety of guided hikes. Inquire at the visitor center for details on geology hikes, wildflower walks, night hikes, children's hikes, and birding opportunities.

Bloc 11 – art auction, 2pm-6pm @ 11 Bow Street, Union Square, Somerville, MA
James Welborn, founder of Hub Comics, died on May 23rd, 2011. Originally from Nevada, James came to Massachusetts to work in the computer industry. He always loved comic books, and wanted to raise awareness that comics could tell any story and be read by anyone of any age. He built Hub Comics to be not only a comic shop, but a friendly neighborhood destination for fans, artists, children, and families. His smile and gentle greeting of "How's it going?" will be missed by Union Square.
A trust fund has been set up to provide for James's family. Please contact Hub Comics for more information.

Comments Off on GraniteCon 2011 Report
Double Midnight Comics hosted their annual Granite State Comicon in Manchester, NH this past Sunday. Despite the wet weather, it was a packed house with several cosplayers showing up in character. Guests included local writers of The Cape Joe Hill and Jason Ciaramella plus artist Zach Howard, who received many well-wishes on their recent Eisner Award nomination. Artist Sean Gordon Murphy talked about his upcoming storyarc on American Vampire and what it was like working with Grant Morrison on Joe the Barbarian. And several contributors, including co-creators Rich Woodall and Adam Miller, from the ZombieBomb Comic Anthology were on hand to meet fans. It may only be a one-day show but supporting local homegrown conventions like this is the best way to encourage them to grow and for retailers to bring in more comic creators for signings. Thanks, Double Midnight!

But with our family, we also stock up on Soothing Balm by Solaro Armour. I've mentioned on here that I am a big believer in investing a little more in quality skin care, and this all over moisturizer leaves my skin feeling soft and silky. For me, it's a perfect daily moisturizer, yet is a balm for any kind of irritants at all. This is sold in choice dermatologist offices but you can get it now through the end of the month for a BOGO price.
Go here to order your BOGO Free deal and enter the coupon code: b1g1free. Remember, this price is only good through the end of the month.
I hope you are finding some fun finds this weekend. 🙂


text: Wandering the yard yesterday, I noticed these holes above the props on a large Hatteras motor yacht. A similar Hatt next to it did not have these holes. Could someone let me know what these might be for? It seems strange to me to have thru hulls in the supposedly turbulent area right above the props. Perhaps they aren't thru-hulls, perhaps they are for some other purpose. Perhaps something to do with preventing cavitation or something like that. Enquiring minds want to know . Thanks for any light you can shed on it. Dan

DECEMBER 3, 2003 (Bethesda, MD) – How best to keep school aged children from getting sick? Some invoke the most famous parental warning of all: "Don't go outside with your hair wet or you'll catch pneumonia." Now, a new study offers additional strategies for combating the number of cold and flu symptom days among youngsters.
A report by Canadian researchers demonstrates that children who spent more time in sports activities and had higher aerobic fitness reported fewer "sick" days, and those with body fat higher than 25% reported significantly more such events. Their study also found evidence connecting reduced physical activity and excess body fat with higher incidences of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI).
A New Study
The investigation examines the relationships between mucosal immunity, physical fitness levels, stress levels, and relative body fat in 10- to 11-yr-old children attending public schools in Southern Ontario, Canada. Thomas J. Cieslak, Gail Frost, and Panagiota Klentrou from the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences, Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario, CN, are the authors of the study, entitled "Effects of Physical Activity, Body Fat, and Salivary Cortisol on Mucosal Immunity in Children." Their findings appear in the December 2003 edition of the Journal Applied of Physiology. The Journal is one of 14 scientific journals published each month by the American Physiological Society (APS).
The researchers followed the protocol outlined below:
Subjects: Sixty-one fifth grade students (29 boys, 32 girls) from three randomly selected schools in Southwestern Ontario participated in the study, which was conducted in May and June. Any medication taken for treatment of illness was recorded.
Physical activity and fitness assessments: Predicted peak aerobic power was estimated and recorded. An estimate of each individual's peak O2 was also determined. A Habitual Activity Estimation Scale (HAES) was used to estimate the time spent in all forms of habitual activity, i.e., the number of hours of habitual physical activity per day. Total duration of daily activity was used to calculate the total weekly habitual activity (h/wk). A Participation Questionnaire was used to estimate both the amount of physical activity and the nature of the participation. Total distance traveled per day was measured using a pedometer.
Body fat measurements: Estimates were made of the participant's percent body fat by using the input variables of physical activity level, body frame size, height, mass, and gender.
Saliva testing. Subjects provided two saliva samples. After collection of the first sample, temperature of the subject was taken to ensure that cortisol contained in the second saliva sample was not affected by acute stress. SIgA in saliva was measured by radial immunodiffusion and results were expressed as a SIgA-to-Alb ratio (SIgA/Alb).
Frequency of URTI: A 1-mo health log was used to record the incidence and duration (number of days) of URTIs. Subjects recorded cold and flu symptoms each day of the month by using a set of codes provided with the log. The severity of the symptoms was rated by each subject as mild, moderate, or severe. Parental supervision was required to ensure accurate recording of the symptoms. All logs were completed during the April to June period, which is a moderate- to high-infection season for Canada. The total number of days with URTI symptoms was calculated for each subject, with days being counted only if 2 or more consecutive days of cold or flu symptoms were reported. A randomly selected subgroup (n = 15) was assessed a second time, 6 wk after initial testing.
Statistical analysis: One-way ANOVA was used to compare boys and girls on physical activity, percent body fat, aerobic power, SIgA, and salivary cortisol. Analysis was conducted to detect relationships among all the variables, and intraclass correlation analysis was used to test the reproducibility of resting salivary cortisol and IgA measures (before and 6 wk after). A minimum value of P 0.05 indicated a statistically significant result.
The researchers found that:
* while there were no statistically significant differences between genders found in physical characteristics, significant differences were found between genders in predicted peak O2 and in distance traveled per day;
* no significant difference was evident between genders in reported levels of physical activity and relative body fat and there was no significant difference between genders in either SIgA or SIgA/Alb;
* based on the HAES questionnaire, children who were active <3 h/day were considered hypoactive; those who recorded activity levels >3 h/day were considered active. Twenty-two percent of boys reported <3 h/day of habitual physical activity, whereas 31.8% of girls did not achieve this level. The hypoactive children had significantly lower predicted peak O2 and SIgA/Alb, as well as significantly higher relative body fat and frequency of URTI. Moreover, body fat values revealed that 40% of the children (50% of boys and 42% of girls) had relative body fat >25%. Children with relative body fat higher than 25% reported significantly more days with cold and flu symptoms and total sick days than the rest of the cohort;
* organized activity and free-time activity were significantly related to peak O2. The total activity score was significantly correlated with peak O2, distance traveled per day, and resting salivary cortisol levels. Distance traveled per day was also significantly correlated with peak O2, as well as with time spent in organized sport activities. Salivary cortisol was significantly correlated with body fat and time spent in organized sport. SIgA and SIgA/Alb demonstrated a significant relationship only with incidence of URTI. The incidence of URTI was also correlated with total activity score, weekly habitual activity, and resting salivary cortisol; and
* the intraclass correlation coefficient for initial and post-6-wk measures of salivary cortisol was r = 0.66. The intraclass correlation coefficients for SIgA and SIgA/Alb were r = 0.23 and r = 0.20, respectively. When the means were compared, initial and post-6-wk measurements of SIgA and SIgA/Alb were not significantly different.
This study demonstrates the importance of physical activity for children's resistance to infection. Children who spent more time in sport activities and had higher aerobic fitness reported fewer sick days, whereas children with relative body fat exceeding 25% reported significantly more sick days than the rest of the cohort. With this in mind, the new parental warnings should, perhaps, be modified to: "Don't go outside with your hair wet -- but do go out!."

Today we left Florence and started our journey towards tonight's destination of Nice, France.
We have to remember merci instead of grazie and bonjour instead of ciao.
First stop....Pisa. To see of course the Leaning Tower. We pulled up in the car park which is miles from the tower and it was full of coaches....arrgghhhhhh!!!
Joey had organised a little train to take us to the tower. Luckily the area is large enough to absorb most of the tourists. People everywhere with their arms stretched out doing the usual photos. Andrew went mad with the camera again and then went mad at me cos I couldn't get the right angle of him holding up the tower with his nose!!
Back on the bus and next stop......arghhhhh ......Autogrill. This place is to be avoided at all costs. The Italians know nothing of customer service. Pick what you want from in front of the scrum at the display window, remember the name of it, pay at the cassa and wait to receive it. What a bun fight! The ladies toilets have a queue a mile long. Melinda and I used the men's toilets. There was no one in there and there was a lady cleaner....she nodded si, si, and in we went. Peter and Mark got a big fright when we emerged from the cubicles while they were having a wee.
Next stop Monaco. The scenery in this part of the coast was fantastic. The road is built up high and goes through over 100 tunnels. It has the effect of low flying and the views are wonderful.....blue, blue sea, snow on the mountains and small towns and villages dotted through the landscape.
Andrews trigger finger was going wild! And when we got to Monte Carlo is went off the scale. He was in heaven. We drove along the track and then walked along part of the track, up to the Grand Casino
We called into a perfume factory on the way to Nice...interesting to hear about how perfume is made....didn't buy anything but my bag smells nice now!
Into Nice where our bus crawled along the Boulevard.....6 kilometres of people watching. Our hotel, the Radisson is at the other end of the beach from the old town. Modern hotel with the usual amenities right on the beach.
We had a free night tonight so we "partied" in Sandra and Peters room. We had bought salami, cheese, bread and wine........the only good thing to come out of the Autogrill. There was a corkscrew in our room so all we needed was a knife, otherwise we'd eat out tonight and have a picnic tomorrow when the shops open and we can buy a knife. Across the road from the hotel is a small grocery store. The guys got talking to the lady. "Parlez vous Anglais?" A little, she replied. Peter asked if she sold knives and told her why and she disappeared out the back and came back with a knife. Please bring back tomorrow!! Aren't people nice??

that's....interesting. it would require advanced outbound NAT to not
NAT on the way out, but for the way in there would have to be some
sort of advanced inbound NAT (i.e. inbound on the WAN). I don't think
this is possible as is now.
I'd mess around with the advanced outbound NAT and see if somehow it
might do what you're after. Would definitely be interested in hearing
what, if anything, you can determine.

seems to be a good value
Country Life, Cal/Mag Citrate with Vitamin D, 200 Softgels (CLF-02546)
Posted by Reviewer2816183 on Aug 22, 2008 | Verified Purchase
This may be a good product but I returned it because it says citrate on the bottle but when you read the ingredients both the calcium and magnesium are also in the carbonate form which is the hardest of the calcium forms for your body to digest and break down. Country Life is a good company but they need to re-label this product.

It makes me sad when I hear of people avoiding avocados because of their high calorie content, even though the fats found in them are beneficial ones. Although they are commonly referred to as vegetables, avocados are actually a type of tropical fruit! They have a delicious, smooth flavor and are wonderful eaten raw. Avocados are high in omega-6 fatty acids (linoleic acid) which studies have shown can help to stabilize blood sugar levels and control hunger cravings. Avocados are also a great source of potassium, a mineral that helps regulate blood pressure. There is also a good amount of digestive fiber in avocados which aids in promoting healthy digestion. Some other nutrients found in avocados include vitamin K, folate, vitamin C, and vitamin B6. Avocados are a great food for promoting heart health, strong bones, and immunity.
– Avocados are native to Central and South America and have been enjoyed since 8,000 BC.
– If stored properly, avocados will stay fresh for up to a week. Purchase unripe avocados and leave them at room temperature. As they ripen, they will soften and the skin will become darker in color. Don't put your avocados in the refrigerator.

Waikato Police investigating the sudden death of a man in Paeroa are awaiting the results of a scene examination and post-mortem, and are seeking the public's help for information.
Police cordons are still in place after the discovery of the body of the man, believed to be in his early 50s, this morning. Police held a press conference this afternoon.
Multiple people in Paeroa have named the victim as Jordan Voudouris, who owns Mykonos Pizza and Pasta. He was found lying face down on a driveway at the rear of the premises about 6.30am. Tributes were being left to Voudouris on the restaurant's Facebook page.
"...My friend, everyone's mate, our friend, your friend, Paeroa's cultural icon, your advice wisdom and smile we remember, please go to heaven," wrote Yamous Yamousari.
"You always had a smile for all who entered your store," wrote Adeline Sveistrup.
Rural field crime supervisor Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Whitehead said police and senior staff were called to the address shortly after 6am.
"One of the priorities for investigators right now is completing a formal identification of the man," Whitehead said in a statement.
Mr. Whitehead said that like any situations of this nature, "the man's death would be treated as suspicious."
A post-mortem of the man is scheduled for Auckland tomorrow.
Several staff members have been gathered outside this morning, and like many in the small Waikato town, are clearly shocked at the death of the popular man.
Tatiana Taukiri last saw her boss when leaving work at 9pm last night. She and her friends were fighting back tears as they described Mr Voudouris, a father of three, as a kind man who often let people who did not have enough money skip their bills.
Mr. Whitehead has said investigators want to hear from anyone who had seen or heard anything suspicious in Paeroa earlier this morning. If you have information, ring 07 862 8744.

text: Hi all, Many people asked me about the Physic Car tutorial and I must say I'm writing now, but I have little time, so be patient. In the meantime I've made a kind of tool for a physic car setup, It has sliders for more interesting parameters in two sections: Car section to the left with sliders for suspension, tyre stiffness, power engine, etc. AI section to the right with thrust and driving sensitivity. Also there are three cameras, a classic follow camera (by default), an on board camera and an interactive camera. When you select this last one, the offset parameters appear under the AI section. I think this is a good way to know how different parameters affect car behavior. Please try carefully at first and look for reactions. You can drive and leave the track pressing "i" to test in an off-road fashion. The values exposed next to the sliders are real world values, it means you can use what you see in your code. The final tutorial will have explanations on those parameters but will not include the interactive part (sliders) nor the AI, just the basic script where you can tweak the values. The car model is a De Lorean I found for free in Turbosquid, if anyone knows any problem with that please tell me and I'll change. The car is at real scale 4,2 metter long. The track is based in the Infineon Raceway. http://3dnemo.com/games/release/056_CarTool.html Edit: Controls are: "c" change camera "i" AI on/off "Space" brake "r" return to the track Please tell me if you find this interesting to continue improving. Thank you and enjoy.
