I was over there, just around that corner.
There was a group of young girls;
About 20 of them, eight to twelve years old
...all wearing purple shirts;
sitting on the grass, having a picnic.
I had been with people, my friends;
talking, hanging out, whatever.
But I strayed from the group.
I walked over to little girls having a picnic.
I must have had some intention,
but I don't even remember thinking at the time.
As I got nearer to them, two of the girls got up and came to me.
When they got to me, I had a knife, and I stabbed one of them.
Then I stabbed the other one.
I didn't know why I was doing it.
I was just doing it.
The other girls started screaming,
and then crying.
And I continued to stab the two girls, now lying on the ground,
over and over and over again.
Blood was everywhere.
I stabbed until my arm was too tired to stab any more.
Then I stabbed with my left arm until it was tired as well,
until the surge of whatever had happened to me was over.
I stepped back and was instantly overwhelmed by guilt, and sadness.
All the girls at the picnic were sobbing hysterically,
and they hated me.
They feared me.
They glared at me with such animosity...
I felt horrible, for what I had done to these two innocent little girls,
and also... what I did to all the other girls.
Their lives were now completely changed.
They had seen something so incredibly terrible...
a betrayal of the human race.
It was more than a person killing a person,
it was a person killing two innocent children.
And I had no reason at all!
I just wanted to.
I didn't understand it. I still don't.
All those girls are now going to learn that some people are just like that.
Some people are just cruel, horrible people.
I should be punished.
I should not be allowed to live freely.
I should not be allowed to live at all.
Who am I to be free to roam the streets, doing as I will,
if what I will is this?
if I can't control myself enough not to murder people on a whim?
I felt so horrible.
I wandered away, down the alley,
away from my spectators.
Ohhh they hate me so much.
Once, I turned back to look at them, and they were still there.
Some were huddled around the two lifeless bloody bodies,
and the rest were too shocked, afraid to go near them,
afraid to leave them,
and certainly afraid to approach me.
Most of them wouldn't even look at me.
But the ones who did... I'll never forget the way their faces made me feel.
I understand.
I hate myself too.
I continued to walk away.
I thought- if I can just reach the end of this alley,
and turn the corner,
I'll be out of their sight.
It seemed so far away.
If I could get there,
I would be safely away from the memory of that insane thing I did.
It could be forgotten... ignored...
I could still be allowed to live freely...
But really, that seemed like a punishment.
It would be impossible to live on, supressing this.
No one was following me. Those girls didn't know me.
My friends can vouch for me that I was with them when it happened.
My friends... what if they get blamed?
Will they know I'm the one who wandered off? And...
Why did I have a knife?
When did I pick up a knife?
I don't understand!
Anyway, I made it to the corner and turned,
and there you were.
A priest.
You looked like you were expecting something...
I think you knew that I had something important to tell you.
I didn't feel like I had a choice.
So I've told you.
I don't expect you to forgive me, or to save me from anything.
I know you won't make anything better.
I just shouldn't have done what I did.
I made a mistake
There's no turning back, is there?
No one can forgive me, because I didn't hurt just anyone.
I hurt everyone, and that's who would have to forgive me.
Mankind, all of them,
would have to forgive me, if I'm going to be forgiven.
and that's impossible.
Everything would have been better if I had never existed.
Well, what are you going to do... Father?
Are you going to tell on me?

"My daughter's birthday invitation is so cute and elegant at the same time! It's not overbearing. Moms have already commented on the Princess invitation and how nice it is and I already recommended the Tiny Prints company."
"These invitations are adorable. They are perfect for my car and truck loving two year old. The paper is very nice quality and best of all...they shipped FAST! I received them in three days!"
"The watercolor texture & weight of the paper, coupled with the classic design and card shape was a perfect fit for the nostalgic look for which I was searching. My daughter loved it as well."

Skitter: Fleeing or Flying?
Matt catches up with her when she's halfway to the airport. Public transport let her down again – she's waiting for another bus after the last one unexpectedly terminated halfway along the route – and his flashy car didn't have any trouble in picking her up.
"Damn it, Skitter, I'm a Req officer, not a field agent." He's driving, but the road's straight enough that he can turn his head to look at her in the passenger seat without too much danger. "What exactly were you planning to do?"
She shrugs. She hadn't thought it through in that much detail. "Get on the plane."
"In someone's luggage? Or were you going to cling to the bottom with the magnetic clips?"
Actually, she'd forgotten about those. That'd be one way of doing it, if she doesn't mind getting splatted on the ground when they land. But Skitter has no desire to trust in Matt's magnets for the entire trip across the ocean.
"I'm not travelling with Nicki," she says. She sounds sulky, but she can't help it.
"Okay, that's fair enough. I had no idea you had history and I wouldn't have suggested her if I had." He taps his fingers against the steering wheel. "I've got your ticket with me. I'll take you through the check-in process and put you on the plane as we arranged."
"You couldn't have done that in the first place?"
"Skit, I'm needed in Requisitions. I can't go chasing after you all day. This is the only time – and I repeat, the only time – you'll get me coming after you, okay."
Glad to hear it, she thinks, but says nothing.
It takes them half an hour to reach the airport and the queues are backed up halfway round the car park. Matt clicks his tongue impatiently, then wrenches the wheel to one side as he swings towards the barrier. An attendant tries to pull him over, but he shows him a small laminated card and instantly the man's attitude changes.
"Of course, sir. If you'd like to follow me, sir." Skitter watches in amazement as they're ushered into the premium parking spaces on the top floor and then escorted into the building without stopping to pay, but she knows better than to ask questions.
It's a similar story at the check-in desks – they're whisked right past the queue. Matt swells with importance as he speaks to the girl sitting there. "My daughter is travelling alone," he explains as he hands over the single ticket. "I'm just here to make sure she gets through security safely."
"Of course, sir. We'll keep an eye on her, sir, don't worry."
As they walk towards security, she can't resist any more. She pulls on his sleeve. "Why do they all call you sir?"
Matt smiles and hands her the little card he's been flashing around. Matt Lyon, it reads. MI2. Access All Areas. She doesn't pause to read the small print. "MI … 2? Is that a thing?"
"Used to be, but as far as the general public know it's now defunct and its functions absorbed into MI3. Used to handle Russian and Scandinavian Intelligence. Now we handle things a bit closer to home, if that's where the problems arise. We're different to the other branches of Military Intelligence, though, in that our spies tend to be a little out of the ordinary." He gazes down at her. "Like you."
"Nicki isn't gifted," she says.
Matt hesitates. "Well. I guess you wouldn't call her a superhero. She's not hugely ordinary, though."
Skitter stops dead and stares. "You're kidding me?"
"She never told you that--? Well, I guess she wouldn't. She didn't know back then."
"Didn't know what?"
"Now isn't the time." The security guard's giving them odd looks. Matt makes sure Skitter's got her passport and ticket and sneaks a peek into her rucksack to check the suit's in there, completely intact. It folds up remarkably small.
"What can Nicki do?"
He ignores her. "Those magnetic clips are going to cause issues," he says, biting his lip.
"You can't just flash the fancy business card, then?"
"I'm not coming with you, remember?" He hunts in his wallet and pulls out a slightly smaller card. MI2 – AAA it reads in large letters, and beneath that there's some guff about allowing the bearer to pass unhindered through checkpoints, the sort of thing you find in the small print of a passport. Skitter takes it from him. "Show them this. With any luck they'll be well enough trained to realise they shouldn't stop you. If they try and take the clips, let them take the clips. You can get some more at the other end."
"I can?"
Matt hands her another business card. By this point, Skitter's wishing she's got more pockets to put them in. "This is the address of our correspondent in New York. She'll be able to get you whatever you need. But don't go to her unless it's an emergency, okay? We're not sure … well, it's just best if this is kept as secret as possible. You know, the fewer people who know a super is operating on US ground, the better. They're a bit funny about that, the Americans. Don't like us sending our own over there."
A super. She likes the phrase and the suit in her backpack makes her feel like she almost deserves it. "I'll call you when I arrive, all being well," she says. The comm device in the collar of her suit will take the place of the mobile phone she hasn't got.
"Do that." He ruffles her hair and watches her walk towards the big security gates. "Good luck, Skitter!" he calls.
She turns and waves, then places her bag on the metal detector. Predictably, it's pulled over and a stern-faced guard demands an explanation. "I'm ever so sorry," she says, with her most innocent smile. "But I'm afraid I'm on official business." She hands him the card.
"MI2? Give us a break." But he holds it up to the light, as though checking for fakes. "Hey, was that your dad at the entrance?"
"Oh, no, that's my line manager," she says, though that's a lie too. Matt's already gone. They won't be able to check. "If there's a problem, the number you need to call is on the back of the card."
The guard examines it once more before handing it back and returning her rucksack to her. "There's no problem," he says.
Skitter's through security. From here it's a short walk to the plane, and then a long flight to New York. It's the first time she's left the country and she's more than a little apprehensive. Nonetheless, a knot of excitement is forming inside her, almost enough to counteract the fear.
A super, Matt had said. She's beginning to feel like one now.

lost boys
You remind me of my brother,
before he broke.
Before he became wrapped up in that cloak
of night, so lightless and lifeless
I could never find him again.
Your smile still shines,
you're a street light in this blackened gasoline abyss
we call night.
The pavement is slick,
oiled up as it rains darkness upon the panes shattered
in our pains,
in our plaintive cries as we call out
searching for a brother we know
we will never find.

the animated version is so so cool!!
i had no idea birds and grasshoppers breathed so differently from us!
Me neither! That's why I stashed it.
I thought of breathing as a universal thing to life, and it's not.
amazing. truly. i love learning stuff like this because it reminds me how little i actually know!
yes, i do! it always makes me laugh and gives me a sort of "how beautiful" feeling that releases me from all pressure to know it all.
there is just so much going on... and i like to be reminded of that!
The good news is that you live in 2014, a time when it is impossible to know it all.
That hopefully also gives you a sense of calm.
yes. sometimes it's nice to just sit back and observe calmly as the world spins and spins...

By CAITLIN MURRAY
The post-Tom Sermanni era of the U.S. Women's National Team has begun and, for now, not much has changed – the USWNT still coasted past China, 3-0, on Thursday and interim coach Jill Ellis doled out minutes to veterans and rookies alike, using all of her substitutions.
Buoyed by two beautiful Carli Lloyd goals, the USWNT built upon their first 2-0 win in this two-game set against China – the previous match having been Sermanni's last as head coach. But perhaps most importantly for the U.S. women, they have officially moved on and have produced the results they expect against a team like China.
Ellis, who appears to be a top contender for the permanent head coach job, started the team in the same 4-3-3 formation Sermanni used in his last game in charge. But Ellis put her own stamp on the system, fielding Lauren Holiday as the target forward, with Sydney Leroux and Heather O'Reilly working the flanks.
Before the match, Ellis told NBC that the 4-3-3 is another weapon the USWNT would like to have in their arsenal – and it was Lloyd who made the formation look better than it had under Sermanni.
In the 20th minute, an unmarked Lloyd caught a bounced pass from Holiday and volleyed it from inside the penalty area to the near post with a delicate, restrained touch to avoid over-hitting it. Three minutes later, Lloyd was at it again, blasting a sailing and then dipping rocket from some 20 yards out, bringing her hips around to get a left-footed shot inside the near post.
Leroux scored one of her own in the opening minute of the second half, racing onto a pass from Megan Rapinoe before finishing to the far post with a sliding finish, a sequence touched off by a long ball.
China played better than in the previous meeting between the sides, but still couldn't manage a grasp on attacking the Americans. While the Chinese played a more aggressive style and forced Hope Solo to make an early lunging save, they were still out-shot 18-3.
It was unlikely the USWNT would come away with anything other than a win against China, but the match was about notching that first win in an uncertain period without Sermanni.
With the shock of Sermanni's dismissal wearing off and the team officially entering the next phase of the squad, the focus turns to who will be picked from U.S. Soccer's short list of coach candidates. Ellis had been the interim coach after Pia Sundhage left for Sweden, but said she didn't want the job. This time around, she hasn't yet decided, she said Thursday.
Before Thursday's match, O'Reilly hinted Sermanni may have been favoring younger players or changing the team's style too much, or was instituting changes too quickly.
"I think that we need a coach that's going to blend this team – blend the old, blend the new, blend an aggressive style, blend a possession-oriented style," O'Reilly told NBC, "and we just need a coach that is going to have the right cultural fit for this group."
"This team is special in terms of its athleticism and aggression towards goal, but we're also looking to play a very possession-oriented style," O'Reilly added. "I think in order to blend those two, you need a very concrete and clear vision of what that's going to take. I guess U.S. Soccer just didn't think that Tom Sermanni was bringing that clear vision to us."
Hours after the announcement of his firing last Sunday, Sermanni told SBI he had no clue U.S. Soccer was unhappy with his coaching.
Speaking to NBC after the match, Lloyd said the next USWNT coach doesn't need to change much.
"This team just needs someone to steer us in the right direction," Lloyd said. "We've got the talent, we've got the depth."
What did you think of the match? Think Ellis is off to a good start if this is her trial for the job? How did the performance compare to Sermanni's match in this set against China?
Share your thoughts below.
That was about as unconvincing a 3-0 win as a team can have.
A ton of hoof and chase, and quite a few players who struggled playing the ball on the ground when they went that route. I hope the third goal wasn't a sign that we need to go back to that style of play.
Lloyd did her thing, and Krieger was excellent defensively, but I'm not sure any other starter distinguished herself too much (Solo's moment of glory aside).
I continue to be impressed by Press. Her on the ball skills, vision, and decision making have been by and large excellent.
Krieger gives the ball away way too much. She just launches long balls instead of keeping possession; a real turnover machine.
The Imperative Voice
As a defender, my response would be that if someone does a really good job defending and just needs distribution work, be thankful you have a stopper and work on them playing the ball out of the back on the ground.
Part of the problem with the USMNT is that the emphasis seems to be on size and composure on the ball and not the prime directive of how well they can defend.
Alex H
Massive agreement about Lloyd. She has the cajones to try sh*t and the ability to actually make it work. Given the uncertainties with the team a confident player like her absolutely needs to be on the field.
Alex H
I would also say that Saurebrunn played well too.
I hope USSOCCER brings in an outsider. Someone that's not too close to the team. Tough decisions are coming and I'm not sure that Jill is the right person to make them.
I also think she has way too much of a West coast bias
From the writer: "…most importantly, they have officially moved on…"
Sounds like you work for the USWNT Public Relations Dept. – Nothing to see hear, no problems, everything is a-ok – kits 50 % off.
If a win over China proves anything, then the Sermanni coached win over China proved the same.
I think it was a bone-head reactionary move to fire Sermanni, how that decision plays out will be seen over time, one game doesn't mean a thing.
Interesting take on OReilly's view of Sermanni: "favoring younger players", "too much change, too quickly" "right cultural fit". What's good for a certain group of older players may not be what's good for the long term stability and progress of the team. Time will tell.
It doesn't look like they've moved on, it looks like they've just opened a can of worms.
Not everything is a conspiracy, just a heads up.
Joseph D'Hippolito
Agreed, Dr. Bombay. I would venture to say that the "old guard" has nothing to fall back on once their days playing soccer are done, so they want to do things they want to do them for as long as they can.
Any coach would be crazy to walk into that situation. It's clear that Wambach, O'Reilly et al run the team.
Once the 2015 WWC ends, the federation needs to flush all the politicians, game players and tactical reactionaries (especially Wambach) down the toilet and rebuild. The federation should have done that after 2007 but too many of those players were in their physical prime. They aren't, now.
I agree also with Garrincha: The only field player worth a damn is Lloyd.
Sven Bender's night on the town
Could have made a helluva drinking game with that broadcast last night!

Sven Bender's night on the town
Interesting that Markgraf quoted Rapinoe saying that Sermanni was "ahead of the curve" in coaching….
The Imperative Voice
Reading between the lines, the "clear vision" comment seems to suggest that while players perhaps understood an old approach was being drummed out of them, and new players being infused, they didn't quite get the new approach they were supposed to be adopting. The Algarve disorganization would seem to reflect this.
That being said, I still get the idea there was lag, perhaps even purposeful, between when people expressed things and when action took place, and that this may reflect Gulati taking what would be charitably termed a "deliberative" approach, with him leading deliberations and thus aggrandized. If the team is a disorganized mess with a coach who can't communicate his system, then you fire him before the next game, not in between 2-0 and 3-0 wins. After all, people are making similar winning ugly kind of comments after this one; the first China game's frustration seems simply to reflect the opposition's tactics, not something inherent about the coach.
Not saying Sundhage was perfect or anything — in fact she seemed to be particularly weaker in what Sermanni was doing so much of, getting so many young players into the mix (took her so long even to make Morgan a starter) — but she's looking better and better in retrospect, especially in the personality management department. The team seems like that fine European sportscar that roars past almost everybody, when fine-tuned properly, but keeping it fine-tuned properly is something only a select few can do…
WNT more like a Dragster—though quite fast, can only go in one direction.
I manage projects, and people for a living, and I can say that it's quite difficult. You have to be careful about peoples egos. I can only imagine the extreme difficulty in managing a team of aging "stars" while trying to implement a new vision, and direction.
I found the interview before the match to be very telling with the talk of culture, and the need to maintain a system.
Brain Guy
Well, we obviously don't need to control for opponent, so the experiment clearly shows that Sermanni was costing them a goal per game. ; )
The Garrincha
In the end I believe we are all here because we care about the direction and ultimate success of the team. (if not then perhaps you are just a troll, or bandwagon, homer, damage control?).
We all simply put want to see the best players and product on the field, that's it, no more no less.
I also am a big Wam, fan, who happens to be a New Yorker,
I have no bias or prejudice, save quality control.
I just want her to get out of her own way.
So just enjoy the ride and hope you get that holy grail.
In closing based on the comments from players, Hope Powell, seems more and more to be the right direction to go.
The Garrincha
Oh yeah last few things,
How bout that "Carli crash, everything and the kitchen sink Lloyd!"
A few days back I aptly called her the greatest all around, most complete midfielder the US, has ever had.
And Leroux, at the moment is a more dangerous striker than Press.
Why?, because she lays it out on the line, and will get down and dirty to score,
also seems to have great sense and rapport with Rapinoe.
Press, has scored a lot of goals but not to many of those kind of goals.
Hope Powell was a terrible coach. She did well in the beginning and then tapered off. She never won any serious competition. In the end she had the same problem as Pia Sundhage, she chose a set of favored players and never wavered. As those players ceased getting it done, she held her ground. At least Pia won with her group. Many quality players never got a chance. Even players that were winning the FAWSL (or it's predecessor leagues) golden boot weren't getting called in.
Also Powell was almost always too late making player or tactical changes during Games, witness the 2012 Olympics. With the overall talent she had available she should have done much better.
The Garrincha
When I say those type of goals
I mean hustle, grind it out, make something happen out of nothing kind of goals.
I agree with Garrincha re: Carli Lloyd. I don't know if I've seen a more complete USWNT women's soccer player, ever. Yes, Mia could score goals by the boatload, Abby is (was) great, and Akers could command the midfield.
But, Carli can do it all, and does not seem to have any problem putting in the work. As long as she is given room to roam, the USWNT will stand to do well.
The Garrincha
Thank you Dinho, Hey I wasn't going to bring this up.
but last Olympics, I was dismayed when I saw the initial rosters and Crash, wasn't on the starting party list.
Then off course the injury to Boxx, opened up a spot for her on the pitch and the rest is history.
Funny though Carli, scored some of the biggest goals for the USWNT in the previous Olympics and other tournaments.
Off course we all know what the women achieved as a TEAM.
However along with Wam, this millennium, nobody has scored more big goals for the USWNT. than, "Carli crash everything and the kitchen sink Lloyd!".
water under the bridge, well done ladies. Baby Horse, get well.
Forward, onward, and upward… Semper Fidelis, Excelsior!.
The clock is ticking on USWNT 2.0. It is becoming clear that Women's soccer is shifting from kick and run to a more technical and deliberate attack.
Sermanni tried to do what Klinsmann did with the USMNT, the only difference is that Gulati did not have Sermanni's back. Doubling down on this aging squad is good for the present, but the decision will have 2 consequences:
1. It undermines the authority of the next manager.
2. It will stunt the growth of our next generation.
For all the talk of the Ponytail Mafia outliving it's usefulness, we've essentially implored the rest of the world to surpass us.
Bianca V
I feel like though the scoreline wasn't a drastic change, this team did play better than they played on Sunday. There are still a lot of things that need to be worked out, but for their first game without Sermanni, it was the best I'd seen them play in months. The passing was a lot better in some parts of the game and players were connecting a little bit in certain moments (though a lot of runs were off and some players were still unsure of their positions). I think with more time together and a new coach, they'll be able to find themselves again
The Garrincha
Amazing, my goodness,
that 20 meter strike Crash Lloyd, did with her Left.
I don't know if anyone on the planet, man or woman, could have struck a ball as well with their non dominant foot.
Beautiful! highlight reel goal for # 50.
The Garrincha
I was thinking, I love the thought of Hope Powell, guiding the machine.
However, we hope the ladies got it all back together by themselves,
hell, you could almost just about have Rampone,
as a player coach.
I'm gad Sermanni was released because I felt he was changing then team with too many younger players. When something works the worse thing one can do is change it too quickly. My Jersey Girl Carli once again went all out scoring two goals and controlling the midfield with perfect passes up field. She and Abby have no fear as Carli almost broke her nose on trying to head one in and Abby ened up with a nice shiner.
One player I have not been a fan of is forward Christen Press. She may score a lot of goals for her Swedish Club but it seems every time she gets the ball she just puts her head down and runs to goal. I've seen Carli give her beautiful passes near the goal and rather then passing it back to a wide open Lloyd she insteads shoots on goal. That is what I miss about Morgan because not only is she an awesome goal scorer but she is our best passing forward. I really hope when Morgan is back from injury she is 100% back because other then Carli Lloyd I think she is the best all around player for the USWNT.
Sadly ramming your head into people doesn't work against European teams. Abby knocking players around in the box and attempting to play target forward in a 433 only works on the Asian countries excluding Japan. She had her ass handed to her by Nilla Fischer and Sweden at Algarve and she doesn't have youthful inexperience as an excuse. Maybe Americans don't get to see the US play against real opponents often, but it is a different world out there and the ones that are trying to improve the team and drag it kicking and screaming into modern soccer know that. That's why they hired Tom. That's why there are younger players brought in who have those qualities that need to be encouraged. It isn't an over 30s league. Germany is as good as the US an their XI averages around 24 years of age if that. The problem with sticking with the vets is they are old and some are resisting the change. The WC is over a year away and they will be even older. Playing on Canadian turf is a huge issue. Fortunately many of the vets can learn new tricks or stay relevant like Carli. That isn't going to be 100% of them and no one player should hold the whole team hostage because they can't keep up.

Record Label: Secret Stash Records
$12.79 $15.99
For Sonny Knight, the making of his debut album nearly 50 years after releasing his first single has effectively pushed the reset button on a long and interrupted career, bringing it around full circle musically and geographically. He and his new backing band, the Lakers, recorded I'm Still Here in a subterranean Minneapolis studio a scant seven blocks away from the basement studio beneath a long shuttered record store where he recorded his first 45 (as Little Sonny Knight & The Cymbols) in 1965 at age 17.
Shortly thereafter, music took a back seat to a three-year stint in the army. A few more years in the Bay Area followed, before he returned to Minnesota in the mid- 1970s and joined the now-cult favorite funk group Haze. By the early '80s, Haze had broken up and Sonny walked away from music for a full time job as a truck driver.
Unbeknownst to Sonny, not only had that lone single he cut as a teenager ("Tears On My Pillow" B/W "Rain Dance") become a prized item in R&B collector circles in the ensuing decades, his powerful voice had not been forgotten. In the 1990s, vocalists Monroe Wright and Maurice Young (formerly of Minneapolis soul legends the Valdons) extended him an invitation to join their new group, The Bachelors. When the Valdons were revived in 2012 in celebration of Secret Stash Records' Twin Cities Funk & Soul compilation, Wright and Young tapped Knight as a new member.
After six months of working together on soul revues, Sonny and Secret Stash founder / in-house funky drummer Eric Foss formed Sonny Knight and The Lakers. Beginning in the spring of 2013, months of rehearsals led to a series of gigs and residencies. Then, the band spent a long weekend at a cabin in Northern Minnesota. Listening to old 45s, learning gospel songs, and woodshedding tunes paved the way for the band to develop a common musical vocabulary and refine their direction. It was a defining moment that transformed them from a group of good players into a rock-solid band.
They brought Sonny back into the studio and cut a new single, "Hey Girl B/W " Sugarman," that was released in November 2013. Without missing a beat, they began working on tracks for I'm Still Here in December and by the end of January the entire 11- song album was complete. Since the Lakers were spearheaded by a reissue label focused on obscure music, the band encompasses more than just Motown and Stax inspired sounds. The many hours spent digging for and listening to forgotten sixties and early seventies soul and funk records have practically oozed into the rehearsal space and studio.
I'm Still Here finds Sonny's dynamic presence and vocal power perfectly complimented by the hard soul grooves of his seven-piece Lakers. The combination makes for a classic sound not to be missed by fans of real, organic soul music.

Joseph Abajian (DJ Jab) founded Fat Beats in 1994 with nothing more than a shoestring budget and an earnest obsession with the music, the culture, and the brotherhood of New York's burgeoning rap scene. What began as a simple vinyl shop in Manhattan's Lower East Side quickly became an integral hub for artists, both aspiring and established, to convene and collaborate on new projects. Joseph's timing couldn't have been more impeccable. When the 90's cultural zeitgeist – and, in turn, the music industry establishment – chose hip-hop as its new arbiter of cool.
International tourists and touring artists alike flocked to Fat Beats for rare vinyl, kindred spirits, and exclusive in-store performances from Jay Z, Eminem, Gang Starr, Outkast, Slum Village, Mos Def, and more. One thing was clear: the Fat Beats phenomenon could no longer be contained in a single basement shop.
In the late nineties, Abajian proceeded to open new stores in Amsterdam, Tokyo, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. He further expanded the company's profile to include global distribution and record label branches. Distribution has since proven to be the company's strongest and most enduring enterprise. Today Fat Beats Distribution stands poised as one of the country's pre-eminent distributors of vinyl & specialty item records: a proud survivor in an industry now famous for its mortality rate. Despite market fluctuations, technology innovations, and stylistic revolutions, Fat Beats has remained steadfast in its commitment to the timeless vinyl format and to the loyal community who keeps it spinning.

One played for a trophy, one played simply for pride. In the end, it was a good team that won and a good one that lost Uvalde upended host New Braunfels 4-2 in the district finale for both, knocking the Unicorns out of the District 28-4A title spot. New Braunfels finishes second at 11-3 behind Boerne who finished 12-2. The Unicorns will still move into the state playoffs next week against Austin Westlake. New Braunfels lost their last two district games by identical 4-2 margins. Uvalde, which finished third, lost twice to Boerne and once to New Braunfels earlier in the year, 4-3. 'They've got a good team. We had two close games with them," said Unicom Coach Neal Miller. "Uvalde was picked to win the district at the beginning of the year." Miller said the Kerrville loss (10-9) in extra innings affected his squad. "What really hurt us was the Kerrville game," he said. "No matter how much we talk about it, it's still there on your mind." Uvalde, which lost a shot at the playoffs last night in Boerne, received a good performance from their ace Duane Jung. New Braunfels also got strong innings from starter Joe Luna as both went the distance. Although the game featured fine defensive plays, the difference came with one swing of thebaL After scoring a nm to jump to a 2-1 lead in the top of the second inning, Uvalde's Brian Slaughter took a pitch over the right field fence for a two-run homerun, which is all the Coyotes would need. "Joe turned in a gutsy performance after giving up that one Harald-Ztiiung photo by JOHN HUSETH Jbbbb Morales slides in safely to score the Unicorns first run last night The Unicorns fell behind and lost to Uvalde and In the process lost the district title. NBHS will enter the playoffs es 28-4A's runner up. homerun shot,*' said Miller. Luna gave up only two hits after the first two innings when Uvalde posted four runs on four hits. The Coyotes only other threat came in the sixth, but right-fielder Johnny Reyes made a great diving catch on what would have been a sure double with two men on base. The Unicorns opened the game with a double by Jesse Morales who later scored when he beat the shortstop's throw to the plate on an infield single. They stranded two runners in the inning. In the second, New Braunfels notched another run when Jeff Gonzales doubled home Joe Juarez who had singled. The Unicorns stranded another two again, however. The Unicorns went 1-9 at the plate with men in scor ing position. Part of that had to do with Jung and the defense behind him. Shortstop Tito Guevera and second baseman Raul Gonzales put on a fine fielding display as did New Braunfels' duo of Morales and Gonzales. -submitted photo Big cat This 27-pound catfish was hatted out of Laks Dunlap vacantly by Tarry Saiga (top, middle), Bryan Saiga (lait), Dillon Voaslsr (right) and Mark Vosslsr (not pictured).

NBISD trustees hire new girls basketball coach By CRAIG HAMMETT Staff Writer New Braunfels school board trustees approved the hiring of Larry Schulte lo coach the high school varsity girls basketball team for the 1994-95 school year. Schulte replaces Maria Puste-jovsky as head coach for the Unicorns who were 11-17 this past season, 4-10 in district Schulte, 34, has been the head girls junior varsity basketball coach and an assistant volleyball coach since joining the New Braunfels high school staff in 1991. Schulte also teaches health and physical education classes at the high school and will continue to do so he said. He also believes he will continue his role as assistant volleyball coach. "I'll still be an assistant volleyball coach," he said. "That shouldn't change as far as I know." The contract is scheduled as are teacher contracts for one year, subject to review each year. Terms of the contract are still to be approved during the budget sessions this summer. Schulte said one of his main objectives is to increase participation in girls basketball on all levels. "I'm very excited about this challenge," said Schulte of his first head coaching position. "Right now, from junior high on up, I want to concentrate on encouraging participation at all levels." An eight-year coaching veteran, Schulte coached at a Catholic school in Austin after graduating from the University of Texas at Austin. He said he sees no major changes in the style of play for Unicom girls basketball at this point "I never like to say there is a certain style I like because it depends on the players you have," he said.

Enter AerieMature
November 12 - 05:34/Afternoon
Senata Mall
I sat down on one of the mall benches, exhausted and almost completely broke of my weekly allowance. I looked up at Alice, who was texting her boyfriend Jack for the hundredth time today. Alice and Jack had only been going out for two months but already it felt like it had been forever. She wasn't always with Jack, since she loved shopping and Jack preferred sports, so she hung out with me most of the time. The only problem was, that she had been born into a completely rich family while mine... not so much.
We were at the mall after having bought a couple badly-needed skirts and shoes but Alice still wanted to check out the dresses at American Eagle. Me, on the other hand, had been wanting to check out Hot Topic for a new corset. Even though our styles had been completely different, Alice and I had been bestfriends for what seemed like an eternity. But, while she seemed to be picking up boyfriends left and right, I hadn't had a single boyfriend ever since fifth grade. Well, if you could call a boy saying you were cute a boyfriend, that is. Not really.
"Hey Aerie..." Alice said, through the tapping of her thumbs on her cell.
"Yes?" I replied, as Alice clicked her phone shut and pulled up a chair in front of my bench.
"What is it you want for your birthday?" Alice asked, grabbing onto the edges of her seat. I was guessing that Jack had complimented her or something, or she wouldn't be so hyperly eager to hear my answer. That, or it was that pure-sugar she was eating earlier starting to come into effect.
"Um..." I thought over the question, thinking of something that I knew she could get. "A boyfriend." I said finally, knowing that this is what I've always wanted. Plus, I knew she could get one... just not for me.
"What!" Alice said, jumping up with her fists in the air, out-raged. "Aerie, you know that's like, not fair!" She spat. I shrugged, and then looked off into the distance of the food court. Something suddenly caught my attention. A boy, definitely taller than Alice and I by a whole foot, with reddish hair and a smirk on his face, was walking this way. I shook my head.
"I thought that today was supposed to be just you and me?" I said, instantly directing Alice's attention over to where I was looking. She let out a small shriek, dropped her bags, and ran over to him. I rolled my eyes, just as I heard the small tweet of my cellphone. I reached into my purse, and dug around for it. Taking it out, I flipped it open and read my newly-received text.
Aerie gt hom naow!!
I rolled my eyes again. My big brother/guardian Daniel hated it when I was out past dark and plus, he wanted me to get home earlier than usual because he was leaving tomorrow to go to Brooklyn for a week or so for his job. He didn't want to leave me behind, but there was no way for him to take me along and plus, we had no relatives nor any parents to stay with me, so Alice was supposed to come over (with or without Jake) to check on me every day. I was fifteen though, so I was pretty sure I could handle myself. Daniel didn't seem to think so, though. And Daniel was twenty-three.
I slid my cellphone back into my purse and slid it over my shoulder as I grabbed my shopping bags and stood up from the bench. By now, Alice and Jack had made their way over to here but they seemed to completely ignore me while they were obviously busy telling each other they loved the other.
"Well, it's late. I'm going to head home now." I stated, hoping to catch Alice's attention. And for once, she actually seemed to of heard me and looked at me in surprise.
"What? You're leaving? But we just got here!" She complained, holding onto Jack and stomping her feet angrily.
"Alice, we've been here for at least two hours and it's already dark out. -You know how Daniel is about these things and how strict he is." I told her, my arms starting to feel like they were going to fall off from holding my heavy bags for too long. Alice gave an annoyed sigh and stomped her feet once more.
"Awww. Fine! Jack and I will drive you home, though!" She argued, a smile showing itself with her perfect teeth. She crossed her fingers in front of her and closed her eyes tightly while holding her breath. I knew what she was doing. This was a habit she did whenever she wanted her way and wouldn't stop until she got what she wanted. Sadly, it had grown on me and I could never say no to her. I sighed.
"Okay, sure." I agreed, and Alice let out a breath of relief. After that, Jake and Alice drove me home from the mall.

``He's been our most consistent scorer over the past month," Brewster Academy coach Jason Smith said of the 6-foot-2, 180-pound point guard. "He's not turning the ball over, is our best perimeter defender and is looking to score more than he did earlier in the season."
Dunson, a one-time Illinois State signee, didn't get his release until October – and Smith feels that's part of the reason his recruitment took time to take shape.
Now, according to Dunson, he's received calls from Nebraska, Purdue, Illinois, Tulsa and Northern Illinois in the past week. Smith added Tulane and St. Bonaventure.
``I want to go somewhere that I can play and showcase my talents," said Dunson, who is fully qualified academically.
While his game is improving (he had 26 points and six trifectas in the win against Worcester last week), it's still the overall package that has Smith gushing.
``Dodie is unbelievable," Smith said. "It's scary how nice a kid he is. If you were to randomly pick up the phone and call any one of the 70 faculty members here, every one would have nothing but great things to say about him."
``You're not going to find a better kid with the entire package," he continued. "His work ethic, character and the fact that he can play."
Dunson is averaging 18.5 points per game this season for a team that is loaded with D-1 prospects, including Virginia-bound swingman Will Harris.
``I've stepped it up a lot lately," Dunson said. "Our chemistry as a team is much better than it was early in the season. It was hard because I wasn't familiar with anyone's game."

Lisa Raitt: Liberals Treating Atlantic Canada Like 'Backwater Place'
A possible contender for the Conservative leadership says Liberals are treating Atlantic Canada like a "backwater place" by not guaranteeing that the next Supreme Court justice will be from the region.
And Tory MP Lisa Raitt — who was raised in Sydney, Nova Scotia but represents the Ontario riding of Milton — says she is surprised more people aren't upset.

Raitt spoke with CBC Radio's Mainstreet Thursday about the federal government's new advisory board that will help Prime Minister Justin Trudeau name top court justices. The seven-member group will recommend up to five names to fill the seat of retiring Justice Thomas Cromwell of Nova Scotia, the only Atlantic Canadian on the Supreme Court.
By convention, the court has always included one member from the Maritimes. Despite acknowledging a "regional custom" exists, Liberals are accepting applications from across Canada to fill Cromwell's spot, leading some to conclude Atlantic Canadians are about to lose their traditional spot on the bench.
Raitt said she was "very shocked" by the revelation, calling it a "minimization of the regional aspect" of Canada and a worrying sign for Atlantic Canadians.
"It's completely overlooking the unique perspective that you have across the country," Raitt said, adding that regional concerns are precisely why there are 338 members of Parliament.
"I'm really surprised that there's not a greater outcry, especially since I'm very proud of coming from a part of the world that doesn't take a lot lying down."
— Lisa Raitt
The former lawyer, who serves as her party's finance critic, said it was clear those running the "prime minister's shop" don't think highly of the Maritimes. She also expressed concern the country's highest court could reflect only the realities of Ontario, Quebec, and big cities.
"I'm really surprised that there's not a greater outcry, especially since I'm very proud of coming from a part of the world that doesn't take a lot lying down, that we stand up for what we believe is right," Raitt said.
Atlantic Canadians are "getting the short end of the stick" again, she said.
"It just drives me around the bend when people assume that we're not good enough, that we can't be bilingual, that we don't have visible minorities here, whatever that mix is that they're looking for," Raitt said.
"It can't possibly be in Atlantic Canada because 'they're a backwater place.' And I'm tired of that whole label that we get down here."
'It friggin' well matters a lot'
Raitt also took to Twitter this week to ask where that "Atlantic fighting spirit" was on the issue. She also cautioned Cape Bretoners to steer clear of apathy.
"It friggin' well matters a lot," she said.
Wondering where that great Atlantic fighting spirit is. Why would any politician give up Atlantic spot on SCC. Our traditions matter too.
— Lisa Raitt (@lraitt) August 3, 2016
And by the way my fellow Cape Bretonners - don't let anyone tell you it doesn't matter u have no SCC seat. It friggin' well matters a lot.
— Lisa Raitt (@lraitt) August 3, 2016
Raitt's passion on the issue could also reflect the reality that there are no Conservative MPs in Atlantic Canada to push the government on the matter.
All 32 MPs from Atlantic Canada are Liberal, as are the premiers of Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island.
Tory justice critic Rob Nicholson said in a statement this week that those Liberal MPs and premiers collectively failed to "guarantee their region's representation on the top court in the country."
It's a safe bet that Raitt will lean on her Atlantic Canadian roots if she jumps into the race to replace Stephen Harper as Tory leader.

Unlike other one-member, one-vote leadership contests, each riding will have equal weight. This means that Tories in Atlantic Canada ridings have just as much power as those in the Conservative heartland out West.
Former Nova Scotia MP Peter MacKay, who once warned he would leave the party if it moved to a one-member, one-vote system, is also mulling a bid.
'I'm home for the conversation again'
Raitt suggested she will make up her mind about the leadership contest as she visits her home province this week.
"When I decided to run in 2008 for member of Parliament, my gut check was done here in Sydney, sitting at the kitchen table with my family and having the conversations that I needed to have," she said. "I'm home for the conversation again. So this is it."
Federal Conservatives are looking for a full-time replacement for Stephen Harper. Here's who's running to become the next Tory leader.
First elected in 2006, Bernier served as minister of industry and minister of foreign affairs — a position he resigned in 2008 after leaving government documents at the home of an ex-girlfriend with ties to the Hells Angels. A high-profile MP from Quebec, he was reappointed to cabinet in 2011 in the junior role of minister of state for small business and tourism. He's already announced that he's going for it.
Dr. Kellie Leitch, a pediatric surgeon, outgoing minister of labour and minister for the status of women, reportedly has a team in place to mount a campaign. First elected in 2011, Leitch was easily re-elected in the Ontario riding of Simcoe-Grey. Though also considered a Red Tory, Leitch raised eyebrows during the campaign by declaring herself "pro-life" and announcing government plans to introduce a tip line for so-called "barbaric cultural practices."
Chong, who quit the Harper cabinet in 2006 on a matter of principle, is also running. The longtime Ontario MP has earned a reputation as a bit of a "rebel," thanks to his Reform Act and calls for conservatives to do more to fight climate change.
Deepak Obhrai, a former Reform MP from Alberta who was first elected in 1997, is the dean of the Conservative Party caucus. He formally jumped into the race in July 2016.
Andrew Scheer, a Saskatchewan MP who served as Speaker of the House of Commons from 2011 to 2015, joined the race in Sept. 2016. Scheer gave up his Opposition House leader role earlier that month to continue exploring a bid.
The social conservative from Saskatchewan jumped into the race in August 2016. Trost, first elected in 2004, is anti-abortion, anti-same-sex marriage, but is also very fiscally conservative.
The Ontario MP is a former air force captain. First elected in 2012, O'Toole has connections in Atlantic Canada and the GTA, and is seen as more of a fresh face.
The Quebec MP and former public safety minister is the man behind the C-51 anti-terrorism law.
First elected in 2008, Lisa Raitt was perhaps the most high-profile woman in Harper's inner circle. Her name was also floated as a possible contender for the Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership. Raitt served as minister of natural resources, minister of labour, and most recently as minister of transport. While several other Ontario cabinet ministers went down in defeat to Liberals, she was re-elected in the riding of Milton by more than 2,400 votes. Another Red Tory, she has been vocal about the Conservatives' struggle to appeal to women voters.
The former immigration minister and Ontario MP is also running. First elected in 2011, Alexander was defeated four years later. He faced questions over his handling of Canada's response to the Syrian refugee crisis. He also joined Leitch in that ill-fated campaign announcement of a tip line for "barbaric cultural practices."
Saxton was the MP North Vancouver for seven years before losing his seat in 2015. He also served as a parliamentary secretary to two finance ministers and the Treasury Board president.
The bilingual Vancouver businessman unsuccessfully ran for the leadership of the B.C. Conservative Party. He joined the race in Oct. 2016.
An Ontario MP from 2006-2015, Lemieux was defeated in the last election. He is a social conservative and veteran. He joined the race in Nov. 2016.
